How does Laser bore sighting work exactly?
It is not wrong to be Right
An apeaser is a man who hopes that the crocidle eats him last
The bore is in a straight line.
The laser shows a visible extension of that line.
Your optic is mounted a fixed distance from the bore.
Mark a piece of paper with 2 points the same distance as between the bore and the optic.
Mount the rifle so it doesn't move.
Place the peice of paper so the lower point is in line with the laser light.
Adjust the reticle of your optic until it is on the upper mark.
Turn off the laser and remove it from the bore. Clear all obstructions from the bore
Go to the range and zero the optic.

You left out one really important step. Take the bore sight out of the barrel before firing!
Fixed it.
I've used a laser with an M-16 to boresight an IR aiming laser. We had specific targets for each mounting device and each side of the rail. I hit man size targets at 200 meters without zero confirmation.

SALINAS, Calif. — In the past year there's been occasional speculation in the industry and in mainstream media that the kale trend might have already reached its peak.
That has not happened, if the acreage commitments and product launches of Salinas Valley growers and shippers are any guide.
In April, Monterey-based Dole Fresh Vegetables rolled out six salad products — all of them with kale. That included Dole's Kale Caesar salad kit; two chopped salad kits, Sesame Asian and Chopped Sunflower Crunch; and three Power Up Greens products. Kale Caesar becomes the fifth Caesar item available to retailers and consumers from Dole.
Taylor Farms Inc. brought their sweet kale salad to the Canadian market, starting with Costco. Fresh Express has redesigned its packaging for organic baby kale — among other organic items. And in mid-April, Church Bros. LLC introduced its Power Mix kale blend for foodservice.
"Kale has been an exploding category for us," said Ernst Van Eeghen, director of marketing and product development at Church Bros. "Sales have been steadily increasing by dramatic numbers. We've increased our kale plantings six or seven times over, compared to last year.
"There's demand for a little bit of differentiation within the kale category, so that's what we're doing."
Pacific International Marketing has boosted its kale production about 25% in the past year, said Henry Dill, sales manager. The company packs it in Salinas and Santa Maria.
Most conventionally grown kale is green, the main color, which is also available in organic.
"We had some red and black kale in the desert, but it's not as popular conventionally as it is organically," Dill said. "Kale is a big item."
Coastline Produce is increasing kale production this year by at least 25%, said Mark McBride, salesman.
"That's become quite the mainstream item after lingering for years in the wings," he said. "Every time you pick up a recipe page, there's something with kale as a component. It used to be a joke, but now it's become a super food."
Since a small grocer once asked McBride — who was just shopping — if he could identify kale on the shelf for another customer, the store has come to stock it regularly. Retailers and consumers seem now to know what kale is.

That said, we love Cyrstal Palace and just had to fit it in somehow so we've booked a 3:35pm on Tuesday. It may not be our traditional breakfast but when booking 6 days ahead of time it can be hard to find an opening!
Most exciting to us is that we will actually have the option to see Fantasmic Tuesday night! Oh how we've missed it.
I am already preparing my taste buds for the awesomeness that is a turkey leg by quitting smoking. I've got 6 days to do it... wish me luck!

Muzyka, listen to the fans!
By: Anthony Velez
I honestly can't say that I'm mad or angry with Mass Effect 3's ending, but I'm definitely confused. I felt that it left me hanging and didn't give the franchise much closure.
I'm a huge fan of the Mass Effect series. I've played through Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2 multiple times (and on both 360 and PS3 in the case of the latter), so as soon as I was able to pre-order Mass Effect 3, I was first in line. When ME3 was finally released, I spent a huge chunk of time playing through the single player campaign. I haven't really gotten into the game's multiplayer that much though.
I fought my way through enemies, enjoyed the story and made some pretty difficult decisions on my journey to the end of the game. When I finally got there I literally thought to myself, "Are you serious? What just happened?"
Plenty of gamers are angry, upset, and/or confused like myself as to why ME3 ended the way it did. Ray Muzyka, co-founder of BioWare, listened to fans of the Mass Effect series when they expressed their disappointment of the ending of the series. Muzyka announced that his team will be remaking the ending of ME3 to please it's fans.
I sure do hope that this remake acts as their 'saving grace' for the game. Mass Effect 3 is an excellent video game with a bad ending. I hope Muzyka listens to the game's fans and this new ending finally brings the franchise some closure.
Who needs closure? Not me
By: Perry Jackson
I beat Mass Effect 3 before the whole hub-bub about the terrible ending everyone keeps talking about. When I did, I saw no problems with it. Does every game have to end perfectly with no loose ends? It makes sense for a franchise like Metal Gear Solid (that's what they did with MGS4), and it provided one of the best endings to a series, ever.
But the Mass Effect franchise ends on a somber note. Its finale is mysterious and leaves you wondering what it really means. Gamers are simply an entitled feeling group and think the series is written for them. And yes, BioWare make entertainment for gamers but the Mass Effect franchise is still their creative endeavor in the end.
I don't need closure and when you think about it, does any big finale really need it?
A new ending compromises creative integrity
By: Chris Goodchild
The ending to my Shepard's story was fitting and felt right for his story progression. The night I finished the game, I wasn't bothered by it in the slightest. The day after, questions started to arise.
What about that? What happened to this? Where were they the whole time? The ending left so many questions unanswered. The more I thought about it, the more it bugged me. I wanted to know what was going on in this virtual universe that I care so deeply about.
After reading through the digital release of The Final Hours of Mass Effect 3, and seeing what Bioware had to say about the ending, I feel like their goal of getting the community talking, thinking, guessing and discussing has half succeeded and half failed. On one hand, people are theorising, pulling the endings apart and seeing what's hidden within them. On the other, people are moaning, they're upset and they're hurt that the characters they love haven't been given the send off they feel they deserved.
The problem behind the idea of Bioware going back and changing their finale is that it undermines the creative and artistic vision of both this game and any future games which end without a satisfactory finale deemed (decided by the fans of course). I worry for the future of game endings simply because of Bioware's response to the backlash. That said, it's arguable that the vision was already undermined when they went to rewrite the ending due to leaks late in the development.
I personally hope that the DLC was always actually coming and that this has all been part of a huge idea that went haywire. There have been theories, ideas and suggestions seeded throughout the universe and the ending itself, suggesting that the finales we've all seen are not quite what they seem to be. In many ways, this theory fits from a gameplay a story point of view. If this theory that's become very popular over the internet is true, Bioware may inadvertently be overwriting one of the cleverest things ever done in storytelling via Games.
With all that said, I still believe that the ending I got fit perfectly fit with my Shepard's story. I chose it because it was what he would have done.
That's the beauty of a Role Playing Game, you can't blame anyone but yourself for the results of your actions.
Unless you're a gamer, of course.

I have to agree with Wakko I dislike people who deserve to be disliked, like a person being an asshole for no particular reason. Although I really don't hate anyone to begin with I try and be nice to everybody even if they are a total dick.

Yeah, I've heard that's what the general consensus is. I'd be over there in a heart beat, but it's going to take a while to get enough money up so I can sustain myself to get acclimated over there and **** . But, I definitely want to at least TRAVEL through it. Got some mates I used to go to school with who live there, and they all say that it was one of the best things that they ever did. They do miss Oz though, which would bloody suck.

Tale of a 'fighter'
-A A +ASaturday, April 28, 2012
THE street was his abode, his only family. Many instance he tried to change his life. But the street seems to have pulled him back.
Rustie Quintana loved the street. He also hated it the same way the street loved and hated him.
Rustie grew up in the rustling streets of Divisoria, which he called then "Isla Di Mabanlas." It was his home while he was five -- without a family nor an identity or a recollection of where he came from. He had lived a life of a street kid 17 years ago.
Just like any street kid that we see with ragged clothes and old slippers asking for alms, little Rustie did the same to survive after his older brother left him at Divisoria when he was five. His brother looked for food but never came back.
At that time, Rustie said he didn't know why his brother left him.
All alone, Rustie learned to become street smart and sold cigarettes, cellophane and newspaper and became a carwash boy and shine boy. He did anything to survive.
At 11, Rustie was into drugs, snatching, picking up locks in commercial establishments and got involved in an "elite criminal group." He did nothing but trouble. Police precincts became his second home as he went in and out of jail for petty criminal acts like stabbing and drug pushing.
Many times he was sent to the Tahanan ng mga Kabataan in Carmen but always managed to escape since according to him, he missed his home in Divisoria.
Later, Rustie was jailed at the Lumbia Detention Cell due to drugs and was transferred to the Regional Rehabilitation Center of Youth (RRCY) in Butuan City.
At the rehab center, Rustie said he became a changed person. He became very religious and was one of the smart kids. He became an eloquent speaker and got engaged in sculpting, painting and music.
After two years, he was released from the center and all his criminal records were erased. He was as good as new as he embraced the world again alone. But he later returned to the streets doing the same stuff but at the same longed to be a change person.
One time Rustie came upon a painting of Rhyan Casiño that was on exhibit at the Tourism Showroom in Divisoria. The painting showed a boy playing his flute with a blooded hand.
Rustie says he was mesmerized by the painting as he saw the boy in himself. He then climbed a tree and realized his life after seeing from up view his fellow street kids washing cars, asking alms and selling cigarettes.
"I said to myself then that I must do something now. I will not be forever young. I am 16 now. I must achieve something for my future," he shares as he recalled having pointed a finger at the nearby Xavier University where he dreamt to study.
But he has no birth certificate and doesn't know how to read and write. Because of this, he became so hungry to learn how to read and count numbers. This determination led his feet to City Central School where he was allowed to sit in. And this started everything. He realized he was already enjoying every learning moment. He was a fast learner and was encouraged by a teacher to enroll at the Alternative Learning School (ALS) so he could pass Grade Six.
The teacher accompanied him to ALS inside City Central School and for several months, Rustie intensely followed its online module. He then took the elementary acceleration exams and passed. A year later, he took the ALS high school module.
A natural fast learner, Rusty was also able to pass the exam, the same thing that boxing champion Rep. Manny Pacquiao took.
In 2008 while playing his flute near the Park Café in Divisoria, Rustie accidentally met Casiño who was intensely staring at him while sketching. Out of curiosity, Rustie approached him and got amazed to see a similar stroke of the painting he saw at the Tourism Showroom.
Rustie befriended Casiño who was then a budding artist but is now the coordinator of the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) in Northern Mindanao Region.
Rustie said he idolized Casiño, citing that his painting was the tool to his awakening.
From then on, Rustie was inspired to earn a decent living not from stealing, as what he formerly does. He did different arts such as henna tattoo and became the first living statue. He made art out of scrap materials as his main source of living.
Casiño also encouraged Rustie to continue his studies. Since he wanted to study at Xavier University, he prepared for the entrance exam by reading books inside the National Bookstore. He was able to pay the P200 entrance fee from his income in doing henna tattoo at Divisoria. He did pass the exam with 97 percent, the highest among the takers.
Rustie was then admitted at Xavier University as a Howard scholar, the highest scholarship grant of the university, giving him the chance to go through a four-year course with monthly allowance. He took up Development Communication course but has to double time especially in minor subjects. Luckily, he was able to maintain his average grade and continuously availed of the scholarship.
Now at 22, Rustie will be in third year this June. And while school opening is still more than a month away, he busies himself with his group called Deri Husi that he and Casiño organized when they were given with a P100,000 grant after submitting their life story to a British Council grant competition dubbed "I Am A Changemaker."
Rustie stands as custodian of "Deri Husi," which means "rest here my friend." He was able to teach 30 street kids various forms of arts such as making beads, playing indigenous instruments, fire dancing, painting, human beat boxing or the art of imitating animated sounds, and many more. It was only at Deri Husi that Rustie was able to discover himself as an artist.
He recalls that when he was 11 years old, he made a portrait of a creature with tentacles using only guava sap as medium. A foreigner who passed by Divisoria noticed the crude painting on illustration board and bought it for P500. That was his first sell.
From there, he graduated to fire dancing and now a member of the 7 Tribes Band as an indigenous percussionist. The band was a national finalist in the 2011 season of ABC 5's Talentadong Pinoy.
The 7 Tribes Band and the Deri Husi performing group are now receiving invitations outside Mindanao. Rustie himself has continued making beads and his first passion -- painting. He averages around two paintings a month that sells between P15,000 to P26,000.
But he did forget his roots. Using records from the National Statistics Offic, Rustie was able to trace his ancestors in Butuan City and secured a birth certificate for the first time. He then learned that his biological parents separated after his birth and was left to the care of his elder brother who left him. He learned his brother was arrested for petty crime.
He also learned that his biological father mortgaged three hectares in Barangay Florida, Butuan City. Using his Deri Husi earnings, Rustie was able to get the land back.
Despite his overwhelming turnaround, Rustie remains a humble person.
Rustie only wanted to learn how to read and right. But now, all his dreams are coming to reality. He can now afford to buy what he wants. He no longer sleeps in cardboards since he already has his own pad. And he is no longer a street kid.
After finishing Development Communication, Rustie says he plans to proceed to law.
An ounce of faith, a volume hope and a lot of courage and determination has indeed transformed Rustie's life.

A fair is an agricultural purpose under county lease statute.
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
April 26, 1950
Honorable Hugh H. EvansProsecuting AttorneySpokane County Court HouseSpokane, Washington Cite as: AGO 49-51 No. 261
Attention: Mr. Earl W. Foster, Deputy
Dear Sir:
This is in answer to your letter of March 27, 1950, in which you request our opinion on the following question:
"Where land is purchased by a Board of County Commissioners expressly for purposes of operating a county fair thereon, but is not used therefor, may a later and differently constituted Board, by resolution, declare the land no longer needed for purposes of a county-operated fair, and thereafter, lease the same land to a private non-profit corporation which will operate a public county fair in accordance with covenants in the lease?"
Our conclusion is:
The Commissioners may lease county land to a private corporation if the applicable statutes are complied with.
[[Orig. Op. Page 2]]
Leasing of county property is controlled by chapter 87, Laws of 1901 (Rem. Rev. Stat. 4019-4025), as amended by chapter 110, Laws of 1941.
No particular problem is raised by the fact that the land was acquired for the county fair purposes as the commissioners have determined that the land is no longer needed for such use. Section 4019 authorizes the commissioners to lease any county-owned real property when they deem it for the best interests of the county and its citizens.
It is understood that the county wishes to make this lease for a period of thirty-five years. Section 4022 provides that lease of county property may be for a period of ten years except for certain specific purposes, where a thirty-five year lease is authorized. Leases for requirements incidental to agricultural purposes are among those for which the longer period is permitted.
The question appears never to have been raised under our statutes, but there is authority that holding a fair falls within the definition of "agricultural purposes." InFairview Inv. Co. v. Lamberson (Idaho), 136 Pac. 606, it was stated:
"A fair, conducted for making an agricultural exhibit, the exhibiting of horses and cattle and giving exhibitions of the speed of horses, has been frequently and quite generally recognized as a proper exercise of a corporation for agricultural purposes." (Citing cases)
We believe this proposition is sound and that the proposed lease may be made for a period of thirty-five years as it is for an agricultural purpose within the meaning of the statute.
We understand the lessee proposes to operate strictly a private fair, and that no financial support from the county is contemplated. For your information, however, we are enclosing a copy of an opinion written to the Division of Municipal Corporations, dated October 15, 1946, generally covering this problem.
Very truly yours,
SMITH TROYAttorney General
JAMES M. MORRISAssistant Attorney General

Hydra-Pure Firming Eye Cream contains some incredibly helpful, state-of-the-art ingredients for all skin types (including an impressive amount of retinol), but jar packaging won't keep them stable. Moreover, this contains a significant amount of lavender oil which only wreaks havoc on skin cells, not to mention being problematic for use around the eyes. What was Dr. Gross thinking?
A luxurious triple-mechanism eye treatment with the additional benefit of the Hydra-Pure Chelating Complex. The formula boasts 14 highly effective ingredients which protect and fight wrinkles by building collagen and eliminating free radicals. This product utilizes a unique delivery system to deliver Hyaluronic Acid to the skin, providing an instant firming effect.
Purified Water, Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Squalane, Sodium Hyaluronate, Retinol, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Retinyl Palmitate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Ubiquinone, Tetrapeptide-21, Aminobutyric Acid, Sodium PCA, Emblica Officinalis Fruit Extract, Tomato Fruit/Leaf/Stem Extract, Lavender Oil, Evening Primose Oil, Olive Fruit Oil,Phospholipids, Sweet Almond Oil, Soy Isoflavones, Zinc PCA, Copper PCA, Ceramide 2, Disodium Lauriminodipropionate Tocopheryl Phosphates, Hectorite, Polyacrylamide, Cyclodextrin, Pentasodium Pentetate, Phytic Acid, Potassium Citrate, Potassiumgluconate, Tetrasodiium EDTA, Caprylyl Glycol, Polysorbate 20, Phenoxyethanol, Sorbic Acid, Mica, Titanium Dioxide
As you may have gleaned from the name, dermatologist Dr. Dennis Gross created this skin-care line. Based in New York City, he claims that all of his products provide "maximum results without side effects," a statement any doctor should know better than to make. For instance, a consumer would logically assume, especially coming from a doctor, that "maximum results" means the products in question really will firm, lift, tighten, plump, or peel the skin. But Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare products don't provide maximum results, not in the least, and definitely not in any of the ways suggested by the marketing copy. In fact, although Gross includes some very impressive ingredients in his products, they cannot make good on the most enticing claims he makes for them.
As for the promise of "no side effects," that is easily refuted with a simple overview of his underachieving products. A quick summary: lavender oil can cause skin-cell death, sulfur is extremely irritating and drying to skin, ascorbic acid can be sensitizing, as can retinol, and the synthetic active sunscreen agents he uses can also present their share of problems. That's not to say that all of these ingredients are bad for skin (only the sulfur and lavender oil qualify for that description), but it's foolish to make a blanket statement that your cosmeceutical-type products are free of side effects. How could he possibly know what a person may react to?
Gross also asserts that he uses cutting-edge technology in his products, a point which I concede given the number of superior moisturizers and serums he offers, all of which compete nicely with other well-formulated products. His products are expensive, but if you're going to spend a lot of money on skin-care products, you should be purchasing state-of-the-art formulas, and these do rate. Of course, this technology (read: efficacious ingredients) doesn't extend to every Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare product, but overall this is one line whose formulas have improved considerably since the previous edition of this book, and that is excellent news!
Several of the products in this line contain emu oil. While there is research indicating that emu oil is a good emollient that can help heal skin, it is not that different from other oils that offer the same benefit, such as grape or olive or even mineral oil for that matter (Source: Australasian Journal of Dermatology, August 1996, pages 159–161).
Last, please ignore the tired claim that these products are your alternative to surgical procedures and that they use medical-grade ingredients. Concerning the latter, there is no such thing; Gross uses the same cosmetic and over-the-counter active ingredients found throughout the cosmetics industry.

Tuition Information
The tuition rate for the 2014-15 academic year is $3,134 per course unit (most courses are one course unit; student teaching is two units, the gifted capstone is broken into two quarters at .5 units each, and the practicum in school leadership is also broken into two quarters at .5 units each). If a student took all 15 course units required for the master's degree at the 2014-15 tuition rate, the total cost of tuition would be $47,010. Tuition does not include the cost of books.Practicum and Student Teaching Fees
edTPA is a teacher performance assessment required of all pre-service teacher candidates in Illinois in order to receive licensure. Videotaped classroom lessons must be submitted as part of edTPA. Starting in fall 2015, candidates registered for Practicum and Student Teaching will be assessed a $500 fee that covers the $300 edTPA registration fee and $200 for video-related hardware and software. Students will receive an edTPA registration waiver, an Edthena video annotation log-in, a wireless microphone and a tripod. Students will keep the microphone and tripod for their own professional use.Other Costs Related to Field Experience and Licensure
Candidates are responsible for their own transportation to and from their school sites.Technology
Candidates are required to video-record lessons during Practicum and Student Teaching at their school sites. Candidates are responsible for providing or procuring a video camera and video editing software.

- Gear: Ashley Walters
- Description: Dark City, 2011 Dark City visually explores the built environment and its effect on creating social constructs and influencing cultural behavioral patterns within the colored townships. In my investigation of these regulated spaces, I look at how surveillance, physical and political hierarchies assert boundaries within society, creating internal conflict amongst members of community and forming micro-cosmisms of control within these public and domestic spaces. This body of work shows the Cape Flats, an area that is distinctive for its flat terrain and recognized for its notorious prison like structures. These structures were built in the 1950's apartheid South Africa to house colored families in the Western Cape, many of whom had been forcefully removed from District 6. These modern structures commonly took the form of blocks of three to four story flats (or fletse as they are known). These blocks are typically arranged parallel to one another forming a central court¬yard. Many of these exist in close vicinity to each other. These heteropian spaces are often represented in terms of poverty, unemployment and stereotypes that are associated with violence and crime. In Dark City I challenge these stereotypes through ways of seeing the visible and the invisibility of landscape.

Horizon pitcher Tim Alderson had a 35-inning scoreless streak snapped two weeks ago on a walk-off home run by Phoenix Brophy's Chris Highmark.
The Huskies 6-foot-6, 195-pound sophomore has displayed his resiliency ever since by throwing a pair of shutouts, the latest a 2-0 win Tuesday afternoon over host and East Valley Region champion Mountain View in the second round of the 5A state baseball tournament.
Horizon (25-9) advances to today's quarterfinals and will face Mesquite, a 3-2 winner over Peoria Sunrise Mountain, at 7 p.m at Maryvale Ball Park. Mountain View finished its season 28-5, the most wins ever by a Mesa district high school in a season.
''(Alderson) was outstanding,'' Mountain View coach Mike Thiel said. ''Someday he's going to get paid (to pitch). We haven't been shut down very often this season. He did that today.''
Alderson (6-1) allowed three hits and did not allow a runner past second the entire afternoon. He did not walk a batter and struck out seven. His new streak of scoreless innings is now 12 and he has given up only one earned run in 47 innings (a 0.15 ERA).
Alderson also helped his cause at the plate with two hits in three at-bats, including an RBI single to left in the second that put the Huskies in front 1-0.
''He's the real deal,'' Horizon coach Eric Kibler said. ''We needed a good pitching performance because their pitchers are very good, too. We've had to overcome some adversity in losing some tough, emotional games with Brophy. I'm real happy the way our kids have battled back. We got great pitching and great defense today, especially from (shortstop) Matt Hall.''
Hall had five ground balls hit his way and fielded each one flawlessly. Two of them may have taken hits away from the Toros as he displayed outstanding range and a strong arm.
''He made some nice plays to go along with the pitching they got,'' Thiel said. ''I was proud of our kids. They battled, and had a lot of good at-bats.''
Horizon got a leadoff hit by cleanup hitter Jeff Urlaub in the fourth and a leadoff walk from Tucker Rubino in the fifth to set up the two runs it scored.
Perfectly executed bunts by Chris Lewis and Jay Green, respectively, moved those runners into scoring position. Alderson delivered Urlaub in the fourth and a fielder's choice grounder scored Rubino in the fifth.
Horizon got both runs off Mountain View starter Jake Borup (8-1), who allowed six hits and one walk in 4 1 /3 innings. All of the hits Borup allowed were singles.

Kaman obsolescence announcement!!
Obsolescence announcement!!
After 40 years in production, Kaman Precision Products is announcing the obsolescence of the KD-2300 product. Many circumstances have contributed to this decision, component obsolescence being the biggest driver. The replacement product, the KD-2306, has been in production since 2007 and has proven to be a very worthy improvement of what was certainly the benchmark for all non-contact inductive displacement sensors. Key dates to remember are: Effective immediately, Kaman will no longer sell the KD-2300 into new applications. December 31, 2011, all sales of the KD-2300 will cease. December 31, 2014, Kaman will no longer support the KD-2300 product with service/repair. The new version of the old benchmark offers higher gain voltage output, as well as 4-20 mA output. It is housed in a convenient DIN rail mount enclosure and is CE marked as well as being RoHS compliant. The KD-2306 is offered with all the sensor models that were available with the KD-2300.

Foundation primers are not essential to beautiful makeup application, but we've chosen some favorites for those curious about this superfluous category. A foundation primer should:
Although not essential many women have been led to believe that skipping the primer step is absolutely ruinous to a beautiful makeup application.
The fact is, most of us are already priming our skin for makeup by virtue of following a good skin-care routine beforehand. You don't need a special product labeled "primer" before applying foundation, and there is nothing in foundation that skin needs to be protected from, so let's put that myth to rest!
The primers on this list are included not only because their formulas surpass standard primers but because our readers continue to ask us for our favorites in this group.
Although all of the recommendations below are great, you can achieve similar results applying a state-of-the-art serum or lightweight moisturizer instead. You definitely don't need a well-formulated moisturizer, serum and primer. That's going overboard and can cause your makeup to not last as long—just the opposite of what primers are said to do.
Note: If you decide to use a primer, it should be applied after your regular skin-care routine but before your daytime moisturizer with sunscreen.

English Standard Version (ESV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Then Joseph fell on his father's face and wept over him and kissed him. | 1 Joseph threw himself upon his father and wept over him and kissed him. |
2 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel. | 2 Then Joseph directed the physicians in his service to embalm his father Israel. So the physicians embalmed him, |
3 Forty days were required for it, for that is how many are required for embalming. And the Egyptians wept for him seventy days. | 3 taking a full forty days, for that was the time required for embalming. And the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days. |
4 And when the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph spoke to the household of Pharaoh, saying, "If now I have found favor in your eyes, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying, | 4 When the days of mourning had passed, Joseph said to Pharaoh's court, "If I have found favor in your eyes, speak to Pharaoh for me. Tell him, |
5 My father made me swear, saying, 'I am about to die: in my tomb that I hewed out for myself in the land of Canaan, there shall you bury me.' Now therefore, let me please go up and bury my father. Then I will return." | 5 'My father made me swear an oath and said, "I am about to die; bury me in the tomb I dug for myself in the land of Canaan." Now let me go up and bury my father; then I will return.' " |
6 And Pharaoh answered, "Go up, and bury your father, as he made you swear." | 6 Pharaoh said, "Go up and bury your father, as he made you swear to do." |
7 So Joseph went up to bury his father. With him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his household, and all the elders of the land of Egypt, | 7 So Joseph went up to bury his father. All Pharaoh's officials accompanied him--the dignitaries of his court and all the dignitaries of Egypt-- |
8 as well as all the household of Joseph, his brothers, and his father's household. Only their children, their flocks, and their herds were left in the land of Goshen. | 8 besides all the members of Joseph's household and his brothers and those belonging to his father's household. Only their children and their flocks and herds were left in Goshen. |
9 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen. It was a very great company. | 9 Chariots and horsemen also went up with him. It was a very large company. |
10 When they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan, they lamented there with a very great and grievous lamentation, and he made a mourning for his father seven days. | 10 When they reached the threshing floor of Atad, near the Jordan, they lamented loudly and bitterly; and there Joseph observed a seven-day period of mourning for his father. |
11 When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning on the threshing floor of Atad, they said, "This is a grievous mourning by the Egyptians." Therefore the place was named Abel-mizraim; it is beyond the Jordan. | 11 When the Canaanites who lived there saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, "The Egyptians are holding a solemn ceremony of mourning." That is why that place near the Jordan is called Abel Mizraim. |
12 Thus his sons did for him as he had commanded them, | 12 So Jacob's sons did as he had commanded them: |
13 for his sons carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave of the field at Machpelah, to the east of Mamre, which Abraham bought with the field from Ephron the Hittite to possess as a burying place. | 13 They carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave in the field of Machpelah, near Mamre, which Abraham had bought as a burial place from Ephron the Hittite, along with the field. |
14 After he had buried his father, Joseph returned to Egypt with his brothers and all who had gone up with him to bury his father. | 14 After burying his father, Joseph returned to Egypt, together with his brothers and all the others who had gone with him to bury his father. |
15 When Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, "It may be that Joseph will hate us and pay us back for all the evil that we did to him." | 15 When Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, "What if Joseph holds a grudge against us and pays us back for all the wrongs we did to him?" |
16 So they sent a message to Joseph, saying, "Your father gave this command before he died, | 16 So they sent word to Joseph, saying, "Your father left these instructions before he died: |
17 'Say to Joseph, Please forgive the transgression of your brothers and their sin, because they did evil to you.' And now, please forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of your father." Joseph wept when they spoke to him. | 17 'This is what you are to say to Joseph: I ask you to forgive your brothers the sins and the wrongs they committed in treating you so badly.' Now please forgive the sins of the servants of the God of your father." When their message came to him, Joseph wept. |
18 His brothers also came and fell down before him and said, "Behold, we are your servants." | 18 His brothers then came and threw themselves down before him. "We are your slaves," they said. |
19 But Joseph said to them, "Do not fear, for am I in the place of God? | 19 But Joseph said to them, "Don't be afraid. Am I in the place of God? |
20 As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today. | 20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives. |
21 So do not fear; I will provide for you and your little ones." Thus he comforted them and spoke kindly to them. | 21 So then, don't be afraid. I will provide for you and your children." And he reassured them and spoke kindly to them. |

23 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation. The children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were counted as Joseph's own. | 23 and saw the third generation of Ephraim's children. Also the children of Makir son of Manasseh were placed at birth on Joseph's knees. |

BEST CHEAP CRUSTACEANS Miami 2002 - Lobster Night
Tobacco Road - CLOSED
626 S. Miami Ave.
Miami, FL 33130
In theory the cheapest lobster is the one you pluck from the ocean floor during lobster miniseason. But when you factor in the cost of the boat, the gas, the gear, and the beer, the total looks like a $5000 meal. No, the truly frugal eat their bugs on Tuesday nights at Tobacco Road. Just under ten bucks gets you a decent-size, nicely prepared crustacean, potatoes, and all the napkins you need. The Florida lobster is fresh, delicious, and relatively speaking it costs next to nothing. This is a great deal, just slightly better than the Road's rib night. Or the Road's T-bone steak night. Or the Road's....

The highlight of Kassy's week in Fresno were the friendships she made with so many wonderfully talented and intelligent women from across California. She was honored as one of the Team California members for promotion of her county with ads in the 500 page program book for the event. Kassy also was one of 20 contestants presented with a Bronze Medal in recognition for her efforts with the Duke of Edinburgh award. The medal was presented on stage by the President of the Duke of Edinburgh Organization for her endeavors in taking on her community service in Mendocino County and also for representing the five points of the Miss America crown along with participating in an adventure requirement. The Duke of Edinburgh award program is named for Queen Elizabeth's son and honors young people all over the world. Kassy also came home with a $1,000 scholarship awarded to her as a non-finalist in the competition.
Kassy knows she brought home with her the memories of a week of strong competition, but more importantly friends that will last a lifetime and a new appreciation of who she is as the competition is definitely filled with a feeling of growth and maturity for every young woman who participates. A highlight of her 10 days in Fresno is definitely the bond she has built with new friends who she hopes to see throughout the year and meet again on the stage of Miss California should she compete again for a different title. With her Miss California earnings added to her Miss Mendocino County scholarships Kassy has earned in excess of $7,000 to use towards her future college endeavors.
The title of Miss Mendocino County 2014 has rewarded Kassy with many valuable experiences this year. She has spoken before South Ukiah Rotary Club, Soroptimist Organizations, Ukiah Veterans Day Ceremony at the Russian River Cemetery, Public Health Dept. events and has participated in numerous parades in the county, as well as volunteered at several Children's Miracle Network fund raising efforts. CMN is the national platform of Miss America. Kassy has fulfilled more events in the City of Willits than we can count and has represented that community 100 percent as well. Kassy has promoted her platform of "Diabetes Awareness in our Youth K-12".
Kassy participated in the Willits Frontier Days Parade on July 4th, plans to make an appearance at the Fabulous Flashback Car Show in September and is available for other events before beginning training of the 2015 Miss Mendocino County candidates. To book Kassy for a speaking engagement, feel free to contact Verna Jacobs, Executive Director of the Miss Mendocino County Scholarship Program. Kassy is the daughter of Debbie Westbrook of Willits. She works for the Loose Caboose and is also a live-in nanny for the Deb Kubin family. Kassy certainly brought great pride to the Miss Mendocino County Program as she competed in Fresno. She was extremely proud of representing our county and wishes to thank the many sponsors who helped her with her Team California success. Those sponsors are: Jim Mulheren of Ukiah Custom Cabinets, Inc., Eversole Mortuary, Phil Dow – Dow and Associates, 101 Donuts & Burgers, Doug & Kathleen Goss, Taco Bell of Ukiah, Tango Tanning Salon, Ukiah Construction, Yokayo Bowling Center, Keffeler Pharmaceutical, Inc. (Myers Medical Pharmacy), McCarthy's Auto Body, City of Willits Chamber of Commerce, Jill Persico of the Loose Caboose Café, Loose Caboose coworkers, and customers and her family. Kassy also extends special thanks to Nancy Phillips, Graphics Artist and Catch Light Studios Photography, and especially to the wonderful turnout of family and friends who supported her in Fresno.
Kassy was also supported by Melissa Chaty, Miss California 2007 (Miss Mendocino County 2002 and Miss North Coast 2007) who became Miss California in 2007 and 7th runner up to Miss America in 2008. Melissa flew in from New York where she is appearing in numerous musical productions. She was honored as one of the 23 former Miss California's in attendance for the 90th Anniversary Celebration of Miss California. Also present in the audience and presenting on stage was Mallory Hagen, Miss America 2013.
The Miss Mendocino County Scholarship Program is so proud of Kassy for her tremendous work this year. She has completed dozens of appearances in Willits, as well as Ukiah and Redwood Valley. She is truly a role model for young women between the age of 17-24 and a high school senior or college student who might choose to run in future pageants. Please refer to www.missmendocinocounty.org or contact Verna Jacobs, Executive Director at 707-462-2025 for information on next February's pageant.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Misty!
Facts about Misty
- Breed: Domestic Mediumhair
- Color: Gray Or Blue (Mostly)
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Female
- ID#: Flock A12-006
- Hair: Medium
Misty's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Misty is from our youngest litter. By luck of our appointments they were spayed and neutered the day they first weighed 2 pounds so they are tiny. The two boys were already adopted so Misty is the only one still available. She has been quieter since the left - there is no one small enough for her to wrestle with so she stays to herself. She loves to cuddle and purrs as soon as you touch her. She is just starting to explore the house - and is sometimes frightened and scampers back to her kitten bed. She is trained, sweet, and adorable.
Other Pets at The FLOCK in Ohio
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Misty, a Richfield Domestic Mediumhair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Mediumhair for sale in Richfield, or seeking a Domestic Mediumhair kitten from a breeder in Richfield.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Richfield already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Richfield breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Mediumhair breeders who help with Domestic Mediumhair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Richfield paves the way for another one to be saved.

"Not too sweet; an excellent treat! I made these as muffins this morning for breakfast. My DH ate 3 & I hate to admit it, but I did too. I used 3 apples & a heaping tsp of cinnamon & they were fantastic. This recipe made 16 muffins for us."

Pretty sore today, but I got it done. Just in time too, as it is raining now with snow/sleet to come later today. 62 apples 9 varieties 126 cherries 5 varieties 8 plums 3 different varieties 20 peach 2 different varieties. 2 apricots Orders were split between starks and adams county nursery. It could have been the type of rootstock that gave them more mass. Its the first time I have seen mahaleb ct500. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Is the entire orchard fenced? |
Thanks for the pictures! Rather stark looking country but I'm sure it's good grass land. Around here it's like that in places but mostly there is scrubby bush. What is your spacing? How will you irrigate and what is ave annual rainfall? How cold are you expecting this week? Most places on the high plains could identify with the saying "only thing between here and the north pole is a fence". |
Jag, Are you doing a U-pick operation? That is a lot of trees. Tony |
3 sides of the orchard are fenced. The 4th side is the west side of the farmyard and deer wont go thru the dogs. Fruitnut, when it rains it is good grass, mostly buffalo grass that can withstand our extremes. I like it out here where it is flat. I start to feel claustrophobic if I cant see 20 miles in some direction! lol Ive got 18ft between rows. 12 ft between apples, plums and peaches. Apples are mostly B118 with a handful of m7 and m111. Cherries are on Mahaleb or Mahaleb ct500 and they are 15ft apart. I have no protection against the wind up here on the hill and our wind gets real bad here. I wanted to try tighter spacing and more dwarfing rootstocks, but had to opt for the stronger roots, with more drought resistantance. I have a drip system trenched in already. Its just deep enough to not mow over it. 3/4 mainline down thru the middle of the orchard with 1/2 tube going down each row. 1 gph woodpeckers on all the trees, and 1/2 gph on the one line of grapes I put in. Our average rainfall is around 25" I think, but last year we were well under 10". At least I shouldn't have to worry about too much cracking or fungal problems! lol My weather shows us getting down to 25 Tuesday morning. The few fruit trees I have here in the yard really aren't doing much yet. I have a few peach at red calix, but there are so few blooms after our winter that It wont matter much. I had a few apricots bloom on my only tsiran black apricot. They are at first bloom now. A few sweet cherries at tight cluster, and the established tart cherries are just starting bud swell. Oh ya, snowing big flakes now.... |
Tony I toyed with the idea, but honestly I don't like people that much! That's not including how little I like the gov, sales tax, permits, who knows what else, ect ect. I am a long ways from any population. Its 2 hours to Kearney, North Platte, or Hays from here. My plan was to have enough to make a bunch of cherry wine, even if half of the trees don't make it, and even if the birds get half of the cherries. Harlan county, just east of here, just planted 600 tart cherries on public land. They did it for the sole purpose of letting anyone and everyone pick all the cherries they want for free. I personally don't see it working too well for them. They don't have any deer protection for their trees and I don't think they have dedicated water for them. They just hired someone to water and take care of them for the summer. |

Looking good,..have fun! |
Jag, a great undertaking. Obviously you have help. I was thinking about when it is time to prune. You will have plenty of fruit, for you and the birds. Wow! Mrs. G PS. haven't seen land that flat in a long time, fantastic. |
What a great layout Jag. How tall is that deer fence? I see you are like me with regard to weed/grass control before planting. Too many times I plant trees without getting rid of the grass first. It's good to know I'm not alone :-) I love that flat land. Hardly anything more beautiful than to look for miles and miles and see nothing but pasture, or farm ground with an occasional farm house here and there. |
Wow, you could drive a fleet of tractors through there! And you could start a new marketing campaign, "Wide Open Spaces Orchard Culture". :O Personally, I wouldn't know what to do If there weren't mountains and/or ocean on the horizon. Got to ask, is wind an issue in such an environment? Be that as it may, you have a lot of fruit in your future. Thanks for sharing! |

What are your plans with all that fruit? Suzi |
- Posted by canadianplant (My Page) on Sun, Apr 13, 14 at 21:54
Ive always wondered how well young trees do exposed like that? |
Jag, I spent a week in Holdrege, NE last month for a business trip. The lands there were so flat as far as the eye can see. One draw back is that the air was pretty ripe from all the feed lots, but they told me it was the smell of money. LOL. Tony |
- Posted by konrad___far_north 3..just outside of E (My Page) on Sun, Apr 13, 14 at 23:43
In my orchard I put 2 windbreak in, west and east with spruce, two rows..from seeds! |
Tony I am a hour sw of Holdrege. No feedlots near here, but I know what you mean. I would rather have some cherry blooms and call that the smell of money! ;) of course my other real business is rentals and the "smell of money" sometimes in those is just as bad! Olpea Fence is 7ft. 8 wire high tensile electric. Its not actually as high as they recommend, but with the dogs I should be ok. Out here you just cant till up a field and leave it bare forever, it will all blow away eventually. I decided to just leave the native buffalo grass there so I didn't have to seed all of rest of the space later. I will kill the grass right around the tree until it gets established. The one thing that might have helped would have been ripping it with a subtiller. Didn't do it so I guess I will just see what happens. Mrclint My extension agent is sure that commercial tart cherry production would work out here. It just wont work with the new high density stuff. We cant put up huge tall trellises or have rows and rows of weak trees. What we do have is plenty of relatively cheap land and water. Tart cherries do fine out here since they bloom so late and we don't get enough rain during harvest to cause problems. In fact its so dry out here we may not have issues with disease to the same extent that other regions might. It is definitely a foreign idea to the farmers out here, but it if does work it could be interesting. April 14th. 28F this morning. Snow on the ground again. Probably 6 inches yesterday, but most melted as it snowed. |

273 High Commission in New Delhi to Department of External Affairs
Cablegram 180 NEW DELHI, 4 March 1949, 9.15 p.m.
My immediately preceding telegram. [1]
The Netherlands Ambassador [2] has requested us to ask the Republicans to participate in the proposed Hague Conference. We have privately discussed the matter with Maramis and Soedarsono, who felt that the Dutch move was intended to short-circuit the Security Council and did not favour participation. Although the Netherlands Ambassador emphasised that his Government were perfectly sincere in their declared intention to transfer power to the Indonesians as soon as practicable, our own provisional view is that this is an endeavour to by-pass the Security Council and to weaken the support of such countries as the United States of America by making what appears a liberal gesture, and different only to what was envisaged in the resolution [3] of the Security Council by changing the venue of negotiations to Holland, and making the Netherlands Government, instead of the United Nations Commission, the presiding authority in the negotiations.
To our mind, the proposed Dutch scheme differs in the following important ways from the resolution:
I. There is no assurance that the Dutch will immediately discontinue their military operations.
II. There is no mention of the intention of the Dutch authorities permitting officials of the Government of the Republic to return to Jogjakarta so that they may, among other things, take over the administration of the area. Indeed, our confidential information is that the Dutch have definitely refused permission to carry out this part of the Council's resolution.
III. The Council's resolution envisaged the setting up of the interim Government by May 15th, but the Dutch seem to wish to make this a subject for the negotiations at The Hague Conference.
IV. It appears that the negotiations will be not merely between representatives of the Government of the Netherlands and representatives of the Republic of Indonesia but propose including Federalists also. It would also appear that the Dutch do not intend treating the Republicans as representatives of a Government, and further, intend playing off the pro-Dutch Federalists against the Republicans.
V. The United Nations Commission's role has been left vague. The Council's resolution envisaged negotiations to be conducted under the auspices of the Commission, but the Dutch intend giving it a subsidiary and merely advisory role. The Netherlands Ambassador, when he called, said that his assumption was that the Dutch authorities would take the chair at the Conference.
2. We have telegraphed instructions to our representative accredited to the United Nations to make the above clear to sympathetically disposed members of the Council, so that, should the Republic refuse participation in the Conference, they would not be branded as unreasonable and uncompromising. The Council's resolution I agree was moderate enough, especially when compared to the reasonable suggestions [4] made by the Delhi Conference, and I do not think we should thwart our efforts to initiate suggestions that further watering down of proposals would be acceptable to countries that participated in the Conference. If we all (that is participating countries) make clear that the Council's own resolution must be implemented, the Council is more likely to adopt a strong attitude towards Dutch intransigence than if there were signs of weakening of our position.
3. From what information we have from Batavia, the American member [5] of the United Nations Commission for Indonesia, while advocating that the Republicans should not definitely bar the door for further negotiations, privately holds that stages envisaged in the Council's resolution were the only practicable way of solving the Indonesian problem. Meantime, he and the Australian member of Commission advised that we should use every effort to induce the Council to insist on the implementation of its own resolution.
4. [6] The Netherlands Ambassador, without referring to the convenience of the participating delegates, tentatively enquired if India would consider the removal of the ban on K.L.M. flights.
We informed him that, until a satisfactory agreement between the Dutch and the Republicans was reached, we were not likely to be favourably disposed to remove this ban.
5. We are instructing our Diplomatic Representatives in the Capitals of countries that participated in the Conference to seek support from the Governments to which they are accredited, with a view to persuading the Council to insist on the complete implementation of the Council's resolution and trust you will also take similar action.
