Service Maintenance
Wilson Energy is responsible for the maintenance of the gas meter and the service lines from the street to the meter. Any problems beyond the meter are the responsibility of the owner/ customer. The following is information regarding how Wilson Energy maintains the gas services and meters.
Meter Change Out Program
Wilson Energy changes out gas meters that meet certain criteria to ensure they are kept in proper working order and accurate readings can be taken every month.
Customers must be home during the exchange so that all gas appliances can be relit after the gas is turned back on. If gas technicians stop by when a customer is not home, they will leave a green card on the door. If you receive a green card, please call the number on the card to schedule an appointment. The exchange takes about one hour.
Meter Maintenance
Wilson Energy is responsible for the safety and upkeep of the gas meters. Please help our technicians perform necessary service and repairs:
- Bushes and tress should not be planted near the meter as they inhibit personnel movement. Also, roots from the plants can disturb the service line and meter and cause gas leaks.
- Pets or objects should not be tied or fastened to the gas meter or service line. The stress or pulling can cause gas leaks.
- Maintenance can not be performed if gas meters are in locked fenced areas or in fenced areas with dogs.
Letters will be sent to customers asking for the removal of bushes/trees that are too close to meters or objects attached to meters and piping. If gates are locked or if a dog is inside a fenced area, a letter will be sent to notify the occupant that maintenance was attempted.
Annual Leak Survey
Wilson Energy inspects all Wilson Energy gas lines every three years. The areas that have natural gas with Wilson Energy have been divided into four sections, three residential sections and one business section. Once a year, a Wilson Energy employee or contractor firm will complete inspections in one residential section and the business section.
When leaks are found during the leak survey, the inspector gives the information to Wilson Energy and corrective action is taken. If a leak is found on the customer piping, a letter will be sent to the occupant requesting that the leak be repaired.
The city side of the piping is defined as the service line from the street to the house and the meter. The customer side is defined as all house piping up to, and including, where the house piping connects to the meter.

ASTHO and the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) worked collaboratively on a project aimed at promoting the integrated delivery of the Special Supplemental Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) and other health services at the state and local levels. The aim of the project was to identify best practices for delivering coordinated WIC/public health services; summarize and promote models of state and local collaboration between WIC and public health services; increase knowledge of barriers to integrated/coordinated WIC and public health services; and develop recommendations for future integration and coordination through focus group discussion.
In May 2010, the National WIC Association administered a survey developed by the ASTHO and NACCHO to identify state and local collaborations with the WIC. The information below summarizes successes, challenges encountered, and lessons learned from follow-up in depth interviews with a selection of Midwest and Mountain region WIC programs survey respondents.

There are unhealthy diets, I know that, diets which _drastically_
lack either proteins, or carbs or oils like cabbage soup diet, and
similar. But, besides that, consider widely accepted diets written
by doctors Ornish, Sears, Bernstein, and many other doctors around
world who wrote diets for diabetics and heart patients.
In reviews on on various well known diets often I read critics that
one or the other particular diet is bad, because as soon as you quit
the diet, you gain the same weight you had before dieting.
When I read such critics I feel an urge to contact the author of the
article and ask to name one diet which will keep you fit after you
quit dieting and resume eating habits which led you to obesity in a
first place. Name such a diet.
Comparing recipes from various cookbooks for diabetics and cardiac
patients, all of them by ingredients, way or preparing meals and
proportion of ingredients in meals, have a place in at least one of
the four popular diets: Bernstein's diabetics, Sears Zone' Ornish's
cardiacs, and Montignac's low GI, many of the recipes almost identical.
Yet cardiac patients and diabetics who strictly follow their diets
happily live years and years after they begin their dieting, and
suffer no lack of carbs, they study and have good grades, they work
and lead their crews w/o problems, are involved in sports, etc.
Or grain and rice free diets for celiac, chron disease sufferers who
must not swallow a tiny spec of grains, grains products or starchy
vegetables. Yet they feel no tiredness, no lack of carbs, successful
people too in every field. How ?
We all know and see people around us who do not consider themselves
as followers or any particular diet, who are fit, will not refuse a
muffin or a cake from time to time, have no time or are lazy to
exercise, and are slim anyway.
Instead of criticizing diets, how about criticizing current bad
eating habits which led to obesity ?
More I see such and similar critics about a "diet which is bad
because later you regain old weight", or "there is no carbs enough
you'll get tired and suffer..." or "there is no grains enough, you
have to eat grains", more I am convinced it is all written to serve
as a weapon in a diet war; one author or his publisher against other
author. Who's going to screw the rival diet and sell more books.

Ortiz Joins Consumers in Their Outcry
December 3, 2003
Assemblyman Felix Ortiz has not only heard the frustrated cries of consumers who have been told their gift certificates are too old, but he has added his voice to their crusade. Assemblyman Ortiz has been working since 1998 on legislation that would prohibit expiration dates on purchased gift certificates.
"It is absurd to have expiration dates on gift certificates. Cash does not expire so why should a gift certificate?" said the Assemblyman. "Businesses may be trying to increase their profits by designating these expiration dates, counting on the fact that some gift certificates will not be used in time. However, consumers are getting increasingly frustrated with gift certificates because of expiration dates, and this frustration should be a cause of concern for businesses who may end up on the losing end."
"This legislation has great potential to help our economy and improve consumer and retailer relations, which is very important especially during the holiday season." continued the Assemblyman.
Under the legislation, if a consumer pays cash for a gift certificate the issuing establishment would not be allowed to place a time limit in which that certificate must be used. The prohibition of expiration dates would not apply to a situation where a business distributes discounted certificates to employees or fundraisers, or gift certificates are purchased as part of a promotion.
"There is no logical or convincing reason that gift certificates should expire. Other forms of payment do not have a time limit and by placing one on what should be an incentive to shop, dine out or travel, retailers will ultimately end up losing the patronage of consumers. The time has more than come to end these unwanted and unnecessary expiration dates," said Ortiz.
Ortiz has also recently introduced legislation that would prohibit retailers from charging monthly service fees ranging from $1.50 to $2.50 on gift cards if they are not redeemed within a specified time frame.

My regular HVAC guy can't figure this one out, so I hope some of you can.
For an indoor pool enclosure I need the furnace to heat the room when the temp is too low, run just the fan when the temp is too high, run the fan when the humidity is too high and run the fan when the pool heater is on (the furnace and heater share the same flu). I have 2 thermostats and a humidistat in the pool enclosure. How should all this low voltage stuff be wired? Right now the furnace runs constantly heating the enclosure to 90+! Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
You said the furnace runs constantly. Do you literally mean that you are getting a call for heat and fan ALL THE TIME? 24/7? Do you ever have fan only? Do you ever have the system off? Your hvac dealer can contact the tech support at the thermostat manufacturer for help and wiring diagrams Good luck |

Story by Russ Bassdozer - Photo PAA
When he's in position to possibly win a tournament, PAA and Bassmaster Elite Series pro Kevin Ledoux of Choctaw, Arkansas likes to switch to swimbaits that are about as big as his shoe in order to maximize his chances for a big bag on the final day. All he needs are five bites on the final day, the biggest he can get, and swimbaits are the ticket. His favorites are the Top Shelf Magnum Deep Runner soft swimbaits which have more of a tight wiggle, and he backs that up with the Roman Made Negotiator, a hard wooden jointed swimbait which traces more of an S-shaped waver through the water. Ledoux used this combination of swimbaits on the final day of the PAA Tournament Series tournament held on Grand Lake in Grove, Oklahoma during November 2013 where Ledoux finished high in 5th place. > read more

It seems like just yesterday when Derek Remitz won the 2007 Bassmaster Elite Series Battle on the Boarder tournament on Lake Amistad. Now having fished in over 110 B.A.S.S. tournaments, Remitz seems like a veteran among the Bassmaster Elite anglers. Remitz always seems to place in the money with at least 71 top 50 finish, but his goal this year in the Bassmaster Elite Series is to qualify for the 2014 Bassmaster Classic to be held on Lake Guntersville in Alabama. >>> read more

What is it?
Top Shelf Tackle Schooling Minnow, a hand-poured Fluke-style jerkbait.
What does it do?
It does the soft jerkbait thing with a different look than the fish in your pond have ever seen.
How do I use it?
There are many ways to use soft jerkbaits, which is part of the reason why they are so popular. The other reason is because they flat-out catch fish. There are few baits that mimic a baitfish as well as a soft jerkbait, booth in look and action. The action in already in this proven design, and now the colors are in another dimension. Many anglers use soft jerkbaits on weightless wide-gap hooks, but if you want a little more casting distance and a shimmy on the fall, use a weighted hook. These are also at home on drop shot rigs, Carolina rigs and as trailers on ChatterBaits and the like. >>> read more

One fish on Texas' Lewisville Lake spawned a surge of confidence in Brent Chapman and, in turn, has made him a tidy sum of money. That fish was a 6-pound, 5-ounce largemouth bass caught on a miserably cold Sunday fish-off for a win at the season opening Bass Pro Shops Bassmaster Central Open. That day has snowballed Chapman's confidence, and now the 39-year-old Lake Quivera, Kan., angler is leading the Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Angler of the Year points race. >>> read more
On day 1, Aaron Martens was the lone Bassmaster Elite Series angler to bring 20 pounds of Lake Michigan bass to the scales. Today, it seemed like 18 pounds was the elusive number as only Takahiro Omori broke that threshold. Who knows what tomorrow will bring, but it's safe to say things slowed down a bit on day two of the Lake Michigan Elite Series event. Both Dean Rojas and Martens, who sit 1-2 in the standings now, saw their weights drop off by 2 and 3 pounds, respectively. >>> read more

I often write about "systems" in hockey, and in doing so, imply that every team uses them. I do that, because, well, they do. Sort of.
Not all teams use systems in the same way. Some teams have a roster that offers them the luxury of using "guidelines" for certain players and certain lines.
Systems confine players to set paths on the ice, which means that while you might be moving a player not smart enough to move himself into the right position, you may also be limiting your more talented players from being able to make reads and plays that can turn the tide of a game in your favor.
What makes sense then, is being open to a little deviation from the plan by allowing your talent to use their instincts. Not everyone, mind you – just your true talent.
I'm actually a big fan of varying the systems throughout your lineup based on the tools you have to work with, because it doesn't allow your opponent to figure out what you're doing and beat the same pattern consistently. If you have a crazy fast checking line you may want them to forecheck in a 2-1-2, where a slower line might be best sagging in a 1-2-2. As long as you keep the same foundation in the d-zone, particularly with breakouts, pairing talent with proper direction can be a killer combo. Read the rest of this entry »

Macomb Township
September 04, 2013LCN football team tops Cousino, readies for showdown with South
By Jason Carmel Davis
C & G Staff Writer
L'Anse Creuse North's Deiontae Nicholas (4) runs in open field while teammate Ian Moews looks for someone to block during their season opener against Warren Cousino Aug. 29.
WARREN — Macomb L'Anse Creuse North football coach Anthony Kiner said his team's Sept. 6 meeting against Grosse Pointe South could prove to be the Macomb Area Conference Gold Division championship game.
Last season, South eeked by LCN 28-27 and finished undefeated in conference play to win the MAC Gold. The tough loss was the only league setback the Crusaders suffered last season.
The game is set for 7 p.m. Sept. 6 at LCN.
"My mind's already on (Grosse Pointe South)," LCN senior quarterback Sean Koski said following the Crusaders' season-opening 42-37 win at Warren Cousino Aug. 29. "After that last kneel down, I was already thinking about that game. That's the MAC Blue championship in some people's minds, and we're going to be ready for it."
Kiner said the Cousino game helped prepare LCN for the showdown with Grosse Pointe South. The Crusaders had to overcome a 10-point halftime deficit before pulling out the win.
LCN outscored Cousino 28-13 in the second half of the Aug. 29 contest after falling behind 24-14 at halftime. Koski accounted for all six Crusaders touchdowns in the opener — five passing and one rushing.
"I think this game gets us ready, and I think the boys know if they don't come out in the first quarter, they'll lose," Kiner said. "We think (Grosse Pointe South) is a great team. We know they're going to have a great scheme, and we know they have a great team."
The loss to Grosse Pointe South in 2012 was one of three for LCN, which finished 2012 8-3 and advanced to the district round of the Michigan High School Athletic Association Division 1 state playoffs. It was a bounceback year for the Crusaders, which went winless in 2010 and 2011. The postseason appearance was the first for LCN since 2007.

According to the early church's own self-narration in the book of Acts it would seem so. In Acts 2 clearly it is the pentecostal coming of the Holy Spirit which initiates the new messianic reality through the apostles. But, the logic of the Spirit's movement is not Pentecost-Church-Mission, but Pentecost-Mission-Church. The Spirit descends upon the apostles (2:2-4) who then proceed to proclaim the gospel (2:14ff). Only after the proclamation, the enactment in the Spirit of their missional vocation, do the apostles baptize those who are caught up into the gospel's truth. Only after the missional proclamation of the truth about Jesus does the rudiments of a common missional life, the life of the ekklesia, begin to emerge (2:42-46).
The church, then is a response to the pentecostal mission of the Spirit through the apostolic proclamation of the truth about Jesus. And this response is one of being given over to the form of radical love displayed in Christ's own revelation of Israel's God. It is a movement of fellowship, solidarity, service, and mutual dispossession (v. 45).
Thus, the logic of mission and church is something like the following: the messianic mission of Christ calls forth the pentecostal mission of the Holy Spirit which brings about the aposolic mission of proclamation in word and deed of the radical love of Jesus. This apostolic mission takes shape in the ekklesia, a movement of communal cruciform love and service to the world.

You find Ugly Breastplate of Awesomeness (crap looks, awesome stats)
You combine them to create Beautifull Breastplate of Awesomeness! (awesome looks, awesome stats)
With this system you can still show the lvl of the characters while adding a massive amount of ways people look without them losing out on stats. They still have to find both items and ofc the resulting item binds to the character.

Ex-Gay Study Author Stanton Jones in Wheaton College Controversy
The co-author of a major ex-gay study is a key figure in the controversy over the direction of Wheaton College, Illinois.
In the article Whither Wheaton?, appearing in the SOMA Review, Andrew Chignell names Dr Stanton L Jones, Provost of Wheaton College, as a force in the increasingly authoritarian approach to doctrine at the flagship evangelical school:
Still, when one spends time talking with Wheaton faculty, students, and supporters, alongside real appreciation one is also likely to hear expressions of deep concern about the unusually pro-active roles that [President] Litfin and his provost, Stanton Jones, have assumed as the definers and defenders of orthodoxy across the college.
Chignell notes how under Liftin the school has come to adopt a "magisterial" model, where firm doctrinal positions are imposed from the top down. So, for example, any member of faculty who took a less-than-literal view of Adam and Eve was deemed unfit for employment. Those who were not sure would be given a year to bring their doctrine in line or leave. The President eventually softened, allowing those in the second category to remain.
It appears that Stanton Jones, with responsibility for all undergraduate and postgraduate studies, was Liftin's second-in-command when it came to implementing these changes. Chignell recounts the following episode involving Jones:
A few years later, Alex Bolyanatz, a tenure-track anthropologist who taught about human origins, decided that it might be wise to invite the new provost to sit in on his lectures: "I had no doubt that hearing my version of a Christian view of integrating the evolutionary model with a faith perspective would make anyone say, 'This guy is just fine; does exactly what we want here.' I now know, of course, that this was somewhere between stupid and naïve. I invited Provost Stan Jones to attend my class and he did for six sessions. I believed that I was ensuring that I would spend a long and satisfying career there. Wrong! I was, in fact, digging my own professional grave at Wheaton."
He also relates the story of Christina Van Dyke, now a member of the philosophy faculty at Calvin College, whose appointment process was abruptly halted because of her hardly remarkable views on homosexuality and Scripture. Van Dyke signed the Wheaton Statement of Faith and its "Community Covenant," but added the proviso that "it isn't clear to me that the Bible unambiguously condemns monogamous same-sex relationships."
She did not deny the traditional teaching, but expressed a view about interpretation of Scripture a little more nuanced than that of many evangelicals. Again, Jones intervened. Van Dyke recalls:
I got a call from Stan Jones, asking me a number of questions about my reservations. I kept saying that I was not claiming to have figured this out, but that it was not at all clear to me from my own research and study that the Bible's position on homosexual behavior was unambiguous. We talked about how I would handle students who came to me to talk about questioning their own sexuality, and I said I would be willing to send them elsewhere. He sent me a whole stack of reading material (much of which he'd written) arguing that the Bible's position on homosexual behavior was, in fact, clear. I read it all. . . . I didn't change my mind. … [At] about 5 pm the day before my interview was scheduled, [the chair] called in tears to tell me that he'd just finished talking to the provost, and that I was no longer a candidate for their position.
Stanton Jones and the Jones-Yarhouse Study
It is unsurprising to find Jones coming in for criticism for toeing such a hard line on conservative evangelical doctrine, especially homosexuality. With Dr Mark Yarhouse of Regents University, Virginia, he authored the 2007 study Ex-Gays? A Longitudinal Study of Religiously Mediated Change in Sexual Orientation. The study was severely limited, with questionable methodology and negligible results – even when judged generously. Dr Patrick Chapman critiqued Jones-Yarhouse for Ex-Gay Watch here.
Ironically, it has been observed that Jones was the more outspoken of the two in trumpeting the results of the study, despite Yarhouse coming from a traditionally more conservative college. For an essentially academic work, the book is notable for its evangelistic flavour. Chignell's revelations about Wheaton College confirm that Jones in particular has a partisan interest in the homosexuality debate.
Someone didn't want the Wheaton story published
This website is the author's own account of his difficult battle to get the piece published. It was written to coincide with the eve of the appointment of a new president for Wheaton College, and was originally commissioned by John Wilson, editor of Books & Culture, an often-thoughtful evangelical publication under the Christianity Today banner. It was accepted "enthusiastically," Chignell says, in mid-September 2009.
It was due to be published last year, but was unexpectedly pulled by Harold Smith, CEO of Christianity Today International, a day or two before it was to go to press. Wilson told Chignall that "this sort of editorial control had never been exercised in the fourteen-year history of Books and Culture."
Smith insisted that several issues with the article be addressed before it could be published. It was taken away and revised, and a few meetings later it was again scheduled to run. Just a few days after this confirmation, however, the piece was pulled for a last time. Chignell writes:
The following Monday, Smith called Wilson in and told him that the piece was irrevocably dead. In a note to me, Smith expressed sympathy but gave no explanation, except to say that "new hurdles" had arisen. He did promise that no one from Wheaton College had directly intervened.
Evangelicalism's battle of the generations
At the heart of Chignell's piece is a conflict between generations of evangelicals. He graduated from Wheaton himself, and recalls the effect on the school of Bill Clinton's election as US President in 1992:
At Wheaton in the fall of 1992 (my freshman year), there was intense soul-searching about why God had denied the victory just as change on key issues like abortion seemed within reach. The night after the election, students held a massive vigil, heads bowed and leaders speaking anxiously about the coming liberal onslaught.
He compares that to the reaction to Obama in 2008:
At Wheaton in the fall of 2008, by contrast, the predominantly African American Gospel Choir took the chapel stage the morning after Obama's election and gave a rousing performance of "God Bless America." That night there was a panel discussion in which Litfin, too, emphasized that future evangelicals "cannot afford to be seen as in the hip pocket of any particular polity or political entity."
These are changing times. Many younger evangelicals identify with the political progressives and liberals of the Democratic Party, rather than the social and moral conservatives of the Republicans and their evangelical forebears. In 1993, Wheaton was a place where "the culture wars were hot, with many students (presciently) advocating a hard-right turn as the path to Republican recovery," Chignell tells us. At Wheaton in 2010, party politics has waned, with students "far more concerned with the relationship between their faith and social justice than with political affiliation," according to Juliana Wilhoit, the head of what she calls "the most anemic College Democrats organization north of Bob Jones."
The Jones-Yarhouse study was a valiant attempt to rescue an ex-gay movement whose once-popular claims are fading. Likewise, the attempts of the outgoing Wheaton President Duane Liftin and his number two to instill by force on Wheaton a hardline "orthodoxy" seem to be last-ditch efforts to salvage the remnants of an increasingly threatened socially conservative evangelicalism.

Unifex is right. Don't mess with the recycle bin folders. They are system created. I have the same thing on my computer.

I am not sure you want to mess with the recycle bin. I have for example several subfolders inside my recycle bins on several drives that I can't access - they refer to other operating systems (I dual-boot). If you had some other operating system in your machine before - such as Vista or Windows 7 beta or RC1, than chances are you've got left-over stuff there. Deleting one of them might be bad for you - you can accidentally delete the Recycle Bin from the current operating system. That's not a catastrophe in itself - but do you really need mess with this stuff?
Hello again libengan. I agree with what's been said, that may cause unforeseen problems; you got rid of the issue anyway, right. |

well you can this a shot....
Take note and copy the filename of that problematic file including the extension name, if you are not aware of the extension name, open My Computer, at the top menu click on Tools, then Folder Options, go to View Section and uncheck Hide Extensions for known file types. Click Apply and OK to exit, you should now see the whole filename.
Now, open Notepad then create a file, you dont need to put anything on it, save it with a filename that is the same as the undeletable file in a different folder (if shall we say you have undeletable abc.avi then name the txt file as abc.avi, it will prompt you if youre sure about this, just press yes). Windows will now see the same file as the undeletable one, copy this to the desktop where the undeletable file is located and overwrite it. After that you can now delete the file. Understanding Computers: File won't delete, open notepad, limewire |

Yes, the issue has been resolved using LockHunter which got the file into the recycle bin. When LockHunter couldn't access the file once it was in the recycle bin, I used it to delete one of the three recycle bin folders under C:\$recycle.bin. This in fact didn't delete the folder as I would have expected, but did remove the problematic file entirely. The three identical recycle bin folders have been left untouched.
Thanks so much everyone! |

(UPDATED COVERAGE, May 23) The full Senate took up debate of the farm bill on May 20, with hopes for Senate approval of the bill in early June.
The House Agriculture Committee passed its version of the farm bill in mid-May and agriculture leaders there anticipated debate on the legislation in the full House by June.
Organic proponents were pleased with the addition of an amendment in both the House and Senate versions that would make it easier for organic producers of any agricultural commodity to create organic promotion orders.
If enacted into law, the amendment would exempt organic producers and handlers from conventional research and promotion orders, and allow producers and handlers of organic agricultural products to have the option to petition USDA to form a check-off organization, said Laura Batcha, executive vice president of the Organic Trade Association.
"Currently, producers and handlers of organic agricultural products are not afforded the same opportunity as folks involved in conventional agriculture to take advantage of the research and consumer education benefits available under industry-financed check-off programs," she said.
Simcha Weinstein, marketing director for Bridgeport, N.J.-based Albert's Organics, said the organic industry is excited about the amendment that would allow for the USDA to approve an organic promotion campaign.
"Particularly with organically raised foods, information is so necessary and so powerful, and the more avenues and opportunities for education, the better consumers can understand their dietary choices," he said in an e-mail.
During the debate on the amendment, some House Agriculture Committee lawmakers expressed concern that an organic promotion order would lead to negative messages about conventional commodities, even though USDA provisions stipulate that promotion orders should not disparage other agricultural products. Some lawmakers also were concerned about the provision that allowed organic producers to be exempt from existing promotion orders.
While he acknowledged some lawmakers are concerned that organic promotions would emphasize the negative aspects of conventional farming, Weinstein believes the messaging would focus on what's good about organics rather than what's not working about conventional farming.
Mark Kastel, senior farm policy analyst for The Cornucopia Institute, said while the Organic Trade Association favors a promotion order, he said many organic growers are against it.

Tired of mowing along the ditch!
What could we plant along the ditch? Need something low that requires very little care. (After all, it's along the ditch. I don't want to be working there.) Light ranges from full sun for part of the day to all day shade. Would prefer something that looks good all year. (Or, at least decent) Also, low cost. Looking for that magical plant. |

This is very hard becoz weeds and plants will grow there probably anyway, becoz of birds, other animals, and water and wind bringing seeds. However, I thought of canna lillies, lantana (the old fashioned reddish-orange ones get big and come back, daylillies (the old fashioned tawny kind, sort of orange color), crinums - a kind of lilly, again an old fashioned passalong plant, irises becoz they like water, tall grasses or sedges, find out which ones like water. Good luck with your project. |

How about monkey grass. You can do through it about once a year to weed but once it fills in, very little else will grow. Lantana was another good suggestion. Miss Huff is a good orange variety. Also, the pink and cream one is very good. Very little grows under them and they are very pretty. |
Louisiana iris, lobelia cardinalis, lobelia siphilitica, cannas, pitcher plants, joe pie weed,lady fern, stokesia, boltonia. And many more! |
I have used asiatic jasmine in areas where mowing is difficult (on steep banks, etc). It is fast growing and can get out of control but overall it has worked fine. |
- Posted by bigoledude z9b Chalmette,Louisi (My Page) on Tue, Mar 17, 09 at 4:21
Spider Lilies are beautiful. They grow wild by the millions just one hour from New Orleans. Wild blue iris's here in St. Bernard Parish. I will have some in my garden this year. Likes it wet. Asian Jasmine will grow very easily from cuttings. Spike Rush is one of my favorites and, it is also a wild and free plant. Will grow in or near water. Horsetail Rush, a plant left over from the days of the dinosaurs, can get a little invasive but, is pretty and unusual. Loves ditchbanks. There are even some free pink Crinums growing wild near here. Just a couple of inexpensive ideas. Email me if you want some specific locations to harvest these free plants. Ray |
Thyme looks lovely anywhere and mine grows all year long here on the Coast 8b. Right now it is flowering and has beautiful little flowers. It will reseed and the thyme keeps getting thicker. A wonderful bonus is you can use it for cooking. I just threw a lot of old hay (must be old) around it in the beginning and as the hay broke down it fertilized the soil. It will spread out and make a wonderful ground cover. It is close to the ground and very neat looking. You don't have to weed it even in the beginning if you use the hay around it. However if you don't like the look of the hay (I do) you can use other mulch that you do like better. Eventually it will cover the area. |
Liriope-green or varigated, alone (alternating the two) alone or among other plants--being suggested. Liriope and Monkey grass are neat, need no mowing. Good luck, would like to get an update on what you decided. GB |

Pharmacist Sentenced to 6 Years in Prison for Illegal Oxycodone Distribution
Illegally Distributed 34,000 Doses of Addictive Painkiller
Diversion of Prescription Drugs Termed "Leading Drug Enforcement Challenge"
Baltimore, Maryland - U.S. District Judge J. Frederick Motz sentenced pharmacist Ketankumar Arvind Patel, age 48, of Eldersburg, Maryland, owner of the Medicine Shoppe located at 11813 ½ Reisterstown Road in Reisterstown, Maryland, today to six years in prison followed by three years of supervised release for conspiring to distribute tens of thousands of pills of Oxycodone to a drug dealer. Judge Motz also entered an order that Patel forfeit $400,000, including $50,000 seized by DEA agents in a search conducted at the time of Patel's arrest.
The sentence was announced by United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein; Special Agent in Charge Ava Cooper-Davis of the Drug Enforcement Administration - Washington Field Division; Special Agent in Charge Nicholas DiGiulio of the Department of Health and Human Services - Office of Inspector General; Chief James W. Johnson of the Baltimore County Police Department; Commissioner Frederick H. Bealefeld III of the Baltimore City Police Department; Chief William J. McMahon of the Howard County Police Department; and Secretary John M. Colmers of the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.
"The abuse of prescription medications is one our leading law enforcement challenges," said U.S. Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein. "Drugs that are approved for use only with a doctor's supervision often are diverted and sold to drug abusers who become addicted to drugs for which they have no medical need. Prescription drug abuse has become increasingly prevalent among teenagers and young adults."
"When abused, prescription drugs are dangerous drugs in their own right, they often lead to the use of harder drugs, with life-altering consequences," stated Ava Cooper-Davis, Special Agent in Charge of the Drug Enforcement Administration. "Our Tactical Diversion Squad (TDS) in Baltimore is dedicated to holding pharmacies and the individuals who operate them accountable for the controlled substances they dispense."
According to Patel's plea agreement, the investigation began when a drug dealer advised DEA agents that since July 2007 Patel had been filling fraudulent prescriptions for Oxycontin and Percocet at his pharmacy. The drug dealer had obtained a blank prescription pad, and would fill out multiple false prescriptions in different names for Oxycontin and Percocet. Patel instructed the drug dealer how to write fake prescriptions to avoid detection from the DEA, insurance companies or any other authorities. From July 2007 to March 2009, Patel filled approximately 621 prescriptions for the drug dealer at a price of between $8 and $12 per 80 mg Oxycontin pill, and $2 per 10 mg Percocet pill.
After coming forward to the DEA in March 2009, the DEA had the drug dealer tape-record controlled purchases of oxycodone made with fake prescriptions and DEA funds. Phony prescriptions were also used by a separate Department of Health and Human Services undercover agent to purchase Xanax from Patel on May 21, 2009 and June 5, 2009.
In total, Patel sold approximately 34,000 oxycodone pills to the drug dealer between July 2007 and March 2009 for approximately $400,000. The total weight of the oxycodone sold was approximately 4.4 pounds.
The DEA has a toll-free international hotline to report the illegal sale and abuse of prescription drugs: 1-877-RxAbuse (1-877-792-2873). Illegal sales of drugs on the Internet or in e-mails can be reported to the following agencies: Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Diversion Control Program, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein thanked Assistant United States Attorneys Robert R. Harding and Mushtaq Gunja, who prosecuted the case.

But Greenview Place's 2,000-square-foot rooftop terrace is a compromise, said Nelson, 83. In fact, it is the go-to place for residents of the age-restricted building. "We walk or we sit around and tell each other stories — at our age, they're lies," Nelson said. "And, we use it for our soirees."
The rooftop gives Greenview Place residents an outdoor haven and a link to the church/school next door, which also has a rooftop terrace. "The kids play basketball and we watch, mostly," Nelson said. "I made one shot, but I admit I was only 6 feet away."
Rooftop terraces have been around almost as long as there have been roofs. But in recent years they have taken on creative designs, with some mimicking grassy suburban backyards and others offering a spalike ambience with hot tubs and mood lighting.
Homebuilders are more often looking to the roof for additional space.
Rooftop terraces are a must for the residences that Renaissance Cos. builds in Chicago, said Nancy Kapp, chief executive of the company that developed Greenview Place. "In the city, this is your safe, secure outside space," she said.
Jeff Benach, co-principal of Lexington Homes in Chicago, put rooftop terraces on the builder's row homes at the Lexington Square 2 development in Chicago's Bridgeport neighborhood, and made them optional at the new Lexington Square 3, although they added to his costs.
"The flat roof costs more than a pitched roof because it requires a different kind of truss to support the weight. And, you need a water drainage system," Benach said.
On a high-rise, the builder's cost of another elevator stop is incidental by the time the cost is spread over all the units. As a result, rooftop terraces are sprouting on "boutique rentals" in Chicago's hip neighborhoods.
"If you don't use the rooftop, it's a missed opportunity," said architect David Hovey, who designed colorful rooftops on the new 42-story Optima Chicago Center I luxury rental building and its future neighbor, the 60-story Optima Chicago Center II, in Chicago's Streeterville neighborhood. Optima I's rooftop includes an area covered with grasses and ground cover, a hot tub and kivas (semicircle seating areas) with fire pits.
The Seneca on Chestnut, a new boutique apartment building across from the John Hancock Center and Water Tower Place, sports a rooftop terrace on the 17th floor. The former historic hotel was renovated by Chicago-based owner Waterton Residential.
Many of The Seneca's tenants are medical students, who use the 300-square-foot terrace to retreat from their studies. During the Chicago Air & Water Show, residents gather on the terrace for panoramic views of the annual event.
Owners of private properties can turn ordinary roofs into extraordinary terraces by incorporating their personal style.
For instance, marketing consultant Jill Maremont transformed the unadorned 1,000-square-foot terrace above the Chicago three-flat she bought in 2005 into a design statement.
Maremont varied the flooring (wood and slate) and added a pergola over a dining table. She used low, medium and high plants to hide a nondescript wooden wall and plain view. To highlight the best view, Maremont used wrought-iron railing as a focal point.
Maremont's rooftop is an extension of indoor comfort. Most evenings, she uses the space to unwind with her Doberman pinscher. On weekends, her father-in-law drops by to read the Sunday paper on the terrace.
For homeowners who lack the design gene, contractors such as Chicago-based JW Landscapes LLC design rooftops and oversee installation and maintenance.
Beware of contractors who do not obtain permits, warns John West, owner of JW Landscapes.
"With rooftops, especially, you have to play by the book," he said. "The building codes are there to keep you safe."
Most codes say rooftop walls must be at least 42 inches high, for example, and omit horizontal rails that encourage climbing.

Good Saturday morning!
Why the photo of squares?? Read on...
So how are all of you holding up in this excessive heat? It's been quite the summer here in Southern Nevada... we have had days and days, weeks actually of temps in the 110f+ range. I know, it's a 'dry heat'. Technically though, it's HOT!
These are the days when I stay indoors and don't venture out unless I need to for work or to get the mail.
Yesterday was CRAFTING ANGELS, which is of course a GREAT thing and definitely worth going outside to get there... it helped that I had a couple of hours of work to do before CA too. :) Anyhow, we had several ladies show up yesterday and I taught 2 of them how to knit a basic 8" square. We are making those to mail to Turkey to a gal there who assembles them into blankets for Syrian refugees.
If any of you would like to help please do-- one thing though, please don't send the squares to me first, as they need to be mailed to Turkey, and I am not certain how I am going to raise the postage money as it is to send our local squares but I am going to do that. Thinking of asking each person who makes squares here to donate a dollar or two towards the postage.
You can find info about the project here:
or on their Facebook page
Here is their mailing addy:
Dianne Jones - Founder of 'Lily'- Love In the Language of Yarn.
Dianne Jones - Founder of 'Lily'- Love In the Language of Yarn.
- 'LILY' C/O Dianne Jones
sokak No 10 D4
BE CERTAIN to check the 'GIFT/DONATION' spot on the sheet they attach to your packages. AND write on there that this is a 'knitted donation - no cost".
You can crochet or knit the 8" squares with any warm patterns you would like, but here is what I taught the ladies to knit yesterday:
Bev's LILY square
Size 8 (US) knitting needles
1.5 oz of Worsted weight yarn like Red Heart Super Saver--your choice of color (an ounce and a half will make a square, but you can change colors and mix it up)
Cast on 33-35 (depends how tightly you knit) I recommend starting with 35 sts, knit 2 rows and measure how big it is. Please make them as close to 8" as you can.
Knit each row until you have an 8" square.
Cast off leaving a 36" tail.
Their goal is 128,000 squares-- and as of today they have just over 4,000. I am thinking each person reading this who knits or crochets can make 5 squares and mail them to Turkey fairly reasonably. If you get together with friends and each helps pay some for postage you can mail even more!
This makes a terrific traveling pattern to take along in your purse. We are planning our (what seems to be) annual trip to California and Disneyland and the beach soon and I will be taking some small balls of yarn and my number 8 needles along! I am thinking of making some like I make dishcloths only without the holes.

Size 8 knitting needles 1.5 oz of Worsted weight yarn like Red Heart Super Saver--your choice of color
- Cast on 3 stitches.
- Row 1: Knit across row.
- Row 2 Increase one stitch and then finish knitting across row. Repeat this row till the sides measure 8"
- Decrease rows-- each row: K to last 2 sts; k 2 together to decrease until you have 4 sts left, then cast off.
Repeat Row 3 till you are back down to 3 sts again. Cast off. Use a small crochet hook or a needle to weave in loose ends.
I got to sing at my niece Janna's wedding in June and I got to meet my newest grandson Mikey... he is adorable and I am not biased ok?
Look at this face--- come on--he loves Auntie Lynn's cookies!
Well, have a terrific week, stay cool, and help others every single day!!
(Hug the ones you love too!)

Between encouraging picky eaters, dishing out afternoon snacks, and snagging "just a couple" fries from that drive-thru meal, you probably end up eating as much off your kid's plates as they do, if not more. And although kids' snacks are packaged in the most convenient way possible, they're not convenient for your health—or your child's health, for that matter. Since your metabolism isn't quite at the place your kid's is anymore, it's time to leave these sugary, fattening culprits at the playground.

Looking for pictures and ideas for mounting a 60" plasma in the corner of the room. Speakers will be going on the ceiling but I need some ideas for building/designing a space to integrate components (6 components) |
Follow-Up Postings:
You can use a dual-arm swing mount, which allows you to adjust the viewing angle. You can then mount the TV at a custom viewing height and swivel the TV to the best viewing position. Or you can buy a properly-sized entertainment cabinet that is installed between the two walls (obviously) and put your HDTV on top. This allows to store some equipment underneath. Make sure you buy one with a large enough compartment for your center speaker channel. Measure your center speaker first before shopping online. The problem with corner mounting is the difficulty in getting a properly balanced sound if you have a surround sound system. Normally one puts the center channel below (or above) the TV and then the left and right channel front speakers about 3-4 feet away from the TV on either side, so you get a proper soundstage and imaging. In a corner mount TV you need to ideally put the front two speakers about 6-8 apart from each other (depending on the room size), but have them tilted out from the walls to center the sound. If you mount them flush on the walls, they will be pointing in opposite directions and ruin the soundstage. If you are wall or ceiling mounting speakers there are some vqarieties available that allow you to point the speakers properly. If quality sound isn't that important to you, then you won't have the great equal or better-than-theatre type performance. Greg |

5 Ways To Look & Feel Red Hot On Valentine's Day
4. Smell Amazing. Explore a new signature fragrance that captures your man's attention. Several studies show that vanilla-flavored perfumes can intoxicate his senses. But perhaps he prefers something a little fresh and floral with a hint of citrus. Notice those fragrances that get a reaction and go with it! You might also want to try a new body lotion to put all over your body in unexpected places.
5. Be Daring & Add A Surprise. If you have been with your beau for awhile, there is most likely an element of monotony in your relationship and in the way you dress. Even if you are going out with your girlfriends or you are with a new man, it's important to infuse a little variety in your life which can help you give off new and exciting energy. Spice things up by wearing something a little different for you. Perhaps you secretly wear a new red lacy thong with a matching bra under your Valentine's Day dress. Or, nothing attracts attention quite like a hat. First, it takes guts to wear one. Second, it takes panache to carry it off. Combine the two qualities and you're guaranteed to get major sex appeal.
Whatever you decide to wear, enhancing and focusing on your Valentine attitude and your wardrobe will boost the way you feel about yourself, thus boosting your chances for love on this special day. For those of you who would like a little more personalized attention, come join me on my website and sign up for a free Body Type booklet and learn about my upcoming Fashion Ambush series here. I also offer a complete dating image consultation to learn what clothes and colors work best for you and to discover how I can help you own your new look and date successfully!

Hang tight!
Recipe by Bobby Kleinveld
"The best dessert ever invented!!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

Save money at local stores when ingredients are on sale!
Watch video tips and tricks
1/2 cup white sugar
2 cups milk
2 eggs, beaten
2 egg yolks, beaten
3/8 cup white sugar
I don't understand the poor ratings that this recipe has been given! This flan is great. It's definitely not the over-dense, over-syrupy-sweet American flan, this is real, fabulous flan. It's sweet without being overpowering, and holds together tightly without being dense. It's light and beautiful when it's done! Definitely party-worthy. I did make some changes: (1)Doubled the recipe and used 8 eggs (didn't differentiate between whites and whole eggs). (2) Added 2 t. of vanilla. (3) Put it in two large ceramic dishes. (4) Added 1 c. of heavy cream (1/2 c., if you didn't double the recipe). It turned out absolutely marvelous! I'll definitely be making it again.
Flan is one of my favorite desserts but I didn't enjoy this version as much as another recipe I've tried from this site. It didn't set up as I'd hoped and I really prefer the kind made with condensed milk. Glad I gave it a shot. Thanks anyway Bobby.

So easy and so perfect! I wanted to make flan to go with a Mexican dinner, but didn't have condensed or evaporated milk, (which most of the flan recipes call for). I followed the recipe (adding NO vanilla) and both my husband and I thought the caramel flavoring was all it needed. I had no problem melting the sugar. Just remember to use only medium heat so it doesn't cook too fast. Thanks for a great, simple flan recipe!
Wow, this was really good and very easy to prepare. I added vanilla extract and a small amount of rum extract. A big hit with the family!!!
As a poor college student, this is the easiest and cheapest recipe for flan I've come accross. It's hard to make flan without a fully stocked kitchen but this recipe works well. I would recommend adding vanilla or almond extract as it can really only add to the flavor of the recipe.
This is easy to make and tastes great. Instead of melting sugar, though, which i didn't like, you can use maple syrup too. I tried that the second time i made this and I thought it was better than the time I used sugar.
Yummm, this is sooo good. I never thought flan would be easy to make, but this recipe makes it sooo easy and so yummy. I did add 1/8 tsp. vanilla.
very good easy to do did large pan instead of ind servings served with berries and whipped cream

WoW Moviewatch: A Dead Bug's Life
In contrast to the silent narrative in The White Drake, this Rise to Power movie had a great deal of dialogue. It displayed an amazing amount of wit and light-hearted characterization between the Lich King and Anub'arak. My favorite line was when Arthas complains how much fun it is to "constantly ressurect an oversized roach." I don't want to discuss the ending of the movie, since it would definitely give a significant spoiler. But let's say an old, ancient foe of the Alliance returns to join the Lich King's army.
A Dead Bug's Life is a beautiful movie. The graphics are intriguing and well done, seamlessly integrating to the story. You can really see how A Dead Bug's Life won its prize.

The numbers are in! Bradley County's tourism growth rate between 2011 and 2012 was the highest in the state with an increase of 9.43 percent.
Total tourism revenues in Bradley County for 2012 topped $122 million, the highest ever.
According to the latest figures released by the Research Department of the U.S. Travel Association, tourism revenue for the state was up 5.2 percent bringing tourism to a $16.2 billion industry in Tennessee.
"We are so pleased with the results of this study and the healthy growth of our local tourism industry," said Melissa Woody, vice president for Convention & Visitors Bureau (CVB) at the Cleveland/Bradley Chamber of Commerce.
"We are fortunate in Bradley County – Cleveland and Charleston, along with our neighbors in the Ocoee Region, to offer amazing outdoor adventure, unique events, compelling heritage sites and Southern hospitality."
The annual study, The Economic Impact of Travel on Tennessee Counties, showed the combined local and state taxes generated by tourists to be $9.74 million.
"These tax dollars help support local services that we enjoy as residents — like quality roads and schools, police and fire protection — but visitors helped pay the bills instead of our citizens paying more from our local pockets," she said.
Woody said advertising, promotion and public relations help generate interest in the area. She explained that requests for information about visiting the area come into the Chamber by the tens of thousands each year.
Woody explained the successful activity of the economic development division of the Cleveland/Bradley Chamber of Commerce has also contributed greatly to the positive growth in tourism revenues.
She said many consultants and construction personnel are staying in local hotels, dining in area restaurants and shopping in local stores. New projects and expansions such as Wacker, Olin, Whirlpool, Mars Snackfood and Amazon pump millions of dollars into an economy and the tourism sector is certainly no exception.
"We all work together in concert to benefit our community," she said. "Just as we need a strong industrial base, agricultural base and small business community, we need a healthy local tourism industry. Tourism activities, events, sites and revenue are important contributors to a high quality of life in any community."
The Chamber's CVB not only promotes the area to visitors, but also plays a role in product development, helping various groups and organizations create and enhance the visitor experience.
The CVB was instrumental in the spring opening of the Hiwassee River Heritage Center in Charleston. The center tells the significant story of Fort Cass (present-day Charleston) as the military operational headquarters of the entire Cherokee Removal operation.
"This is an important story that would have been lost if a concerned group had not initiated this center," Woody said. "People will come to this heritage center to learn about significant history. We have already had almost 500 visitors while still working on securing signage and promoting the interpretive site."
Woody commented Red Clay State Historic Area and the excellent educational work they are doing to tell the Cherokee story.
"Red Clay is so significant and sacred," she explained. "The park staff and those who preserved this important place have done an amazing job interpreting the Cherokee council grounds. Charleston's story is different, but it's all connected. The Cherokee sites weave a story and that needs to be told completely, accurately and respectfully."
The CVB was just heavily involved in producing one of the most unique events anywhere, the second annual International Cowpea Festival & Cook-off held recently in Charleston. Organizers report that about 3,500 people attended the event throughout a beautiful day.
"When you want to attract visitors through events, they have to be unique," said Woody, who has worked in the tourism industry for 14 years. "Every town has a harvest festival, an arts showcase or a taste of the city. Nobody in the whole, wide world has a cowpea festival, except Charleston, Tenn."
Woody went on to explain that other events in the community are unique and are of interest to visitors, including spooky tales of the Evening of Mystery and Folklore, tradition of the Halloween Block Party, graveside re-enactments at the annual Fort Hill Cemetery Tour, and reverse Christmas caroling at Carols in the City.
She also mentioned the events commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Civil War are gearing up to tell the story of war activity in Bradley County in the fall of 1863. The commemorative events are following the timeline of actual events during Civil War times. Watch for information about living history events in Cleveland, Oct. 4 and 5, and Charleston Nov. 8 and 9.
