Cat put on a hell of a performance. She is a beast, and I can't wait to see Ronda get some real competition. I love Ronda, but it would be nice to see her break a sweat and get tested.

She is that pretty and not that popular yet but she has something about her that draws you in. before this fight i never seen her fight now I know everything about her from the web it was like Liz that lost to Rousey she done the same thing but Tate she has the opposite effect she makes me want to puke in my mouth with her complaining like that bullshit about her being down when she was kneed I mean ran with it at the presser b4 ever reviewing the shit and she clearly was not down she was getting her ass whooped is all i saw and my dvr slows the shit down as slow as you want you cry baby biotch.

Nice comment, Anik. "I believe she will be the first mother to step foot inside the octagon."
Really Anik? Let's see…Carmouche? Nope. Rousey? Nope. Yes John, I believe you are correct. -

A lot of you guys are just weird. I see a lot of the same one's who were all like " no way womans division in UFC this sucks" to now being like "this is great she cried on the way to the cage." Make up your mind people. And womans mma has always been cool just more poeple are watching now which is good.

Did anyone else notice that Miesha seemed to take a page from Ronda's book and start to play up her sexuality more? I admit I haven't paid attention to many of her fights, but it seemed like she was trying to put on the "pretty girl" image. Obviously she ain't pretty no more after that beat down.
Amosaback April 16, 2013
Thanks for this post, Bruno. I forwarded my DVR past all the pre-fight stuff and missed this. I've been really impressed with Zingano's positivity and great attitude. She's been a bright spot from her first interview. Both Cat and Conor McGregor are adding so much to the UFC in regards to attitude and character. I hope this trend continues among new fighters.

- Why is it a felony to profit from an insurance loss?
- Will the adjuster give me enough money for a quality restoration?
- What can I do if my adjuster didn't or doesn't give me enough money for a quality job?
- If all these questions are hard to understand or answer, then let a professional help you.
- We can answer all of your questions and help you get everything you deserve.
Hail and high winds can cause serious damage to your roof and exterior of your home. An evaluation by a TRAINED HAIL DAMAGE INSPECTOR (not roofer) can verify the extent of your damages and outline the means by which to get them repaired. Even experienced roofers cannot see these damages.
Most roofers do not know how to inspect for hail damage.
A trained inspector has taken the same extensive training courses that your adjuster has taken (the adjuster MUST take these courses to be certified).
What About My Siding?
Most people can inspect their own siding by checking your exterior walls closely, preferably when the sun is a little lower in the sky (morning or evening). This will make it easier to see the denting. Old aluminum siding will show the damage more than wood or vinyl unless the vinyl actually has holes in it.
Does my insurance company know if I had large hail in my neighborhood?
Most insurance companies subscribe to different tracking and hail reporting services.
These services can track the hail size and the exact location it fell. If you had damaging hail, they already know it.
If you had hail in your neighborhood, CALL US! We want to be present when the adjuster comes out to do his/her inspection.
It is your legal right to have someone represent you during the inspection. Your adjuster cannot enter your property without your permission. Insist on a FIRM appointment so that we can schedule the meeting also. If we are not, or was not present during the inspection, you probably will not, or did not receive a full claim. Let US work for you in getting what you deserve. You only have a limited time to make a claim!
The adjuster will look at your property during working hours, so you probably won't be home when the adjustment is taking place, which means you have no input in the matter. We ask that you allow us to represent you during the inspection. The adjuster will inspect your roof and exterior of your home for visible signs of damage only. For the roof, he will measure out a "Test Square" (10' x 10') on different sections of your roof. If he can find a sufficient amount of bruises or breaks for each "Test Square", the insurance company will buy you a new roof.
My Adjuster Said "No Damage"
It is possible that your roof was the only one on the block that wasn't damaged. However, you are entitled to a re-inspection by another adjuster within the same firm. So if you?re not completely satisfied with the results of your claim, don't settle. Ask for another inspection. Let us work for you in getting what you deserve.
Most occur when the adjuster has not assessed the same amount of damage as the contractor. Whether it is for the roof, gutters, siding or other exterior or interior damage. So if you have interior damage or other hard to see damages that can be easily overlooked, chances are the adjuster will probably miss it. This is another reason that you need us to represent you during the inspection.
You are entitled to have your contractor of choice represent you during the adjustment process to expedite the settlement of your claim. In order to save you time off from work and the headache of the entire process, we ask that you allow us to represent you during the inspection process. We will work with your adjuster to determine the extent of the damage, clarify pricing and offer a repair price agreeable to the insurance company. All you pay in most cases is your deductible. Let us work for you in getting what you deserve.
How the Insurance Comapnies Pay On Claims
In most cases, about a week after the adjuster has estimated your property, you will receive your first check. This is most commonly called the ACV. (Actual Cost Value)
This check should represent the actual cost to repair or replace the damaged property, MINUS DEPRECIATION. This is commonly called the RCV (Replacement Cost Value).
The age and condition of the property is taken into account when calculating this depreciation. When work is completed, the insurance company will issue a check for the RECOVERABLE depreciation amount only if the total expenses are equal to, or greater than the total settlement.
There is a way to receive the total settlement payment WITHOUT depreciation. Let us work for you in getting what you deserve.
Many people never get the depreciation amount back because they do not understand the process or the contractor they chose didn't understand the proper procedures.
When This Happens, YOU Pay the Difference.
This Can Cost Thousands Of Dollars.
We can offer a COMPLETE repair package (at the discretion of your insurance company) without you having to do anything. We can handle all of the red tape and obtain permits etc. All work will be performed in accordance with all state and local laws.
Let us help you and make things easier.
Absolutely not! You are not allowed to profit from a loss. Insurance fraud is a class 3 felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison and fines up to $5000.00!Index
Do I Need To Get Two Or More Estimates?
No! Your insurance company has created their own price list and will only pay actual costs for repairs (according to their price list), regardless of what prices you may get.
Think of it this way, what reward will the insurance company give you for finding the best price for them? Will they lower your premium? Your insurance company will pay a reputable contractor a "fair market price".
Will My Insurance Company Give Me More Money If I Spend More Than They Gave Me?
Maybe! Your insurance company will only pay supplements on items that you can prove they overlooked.
Here are some examples of what you may pay . . .
Example 1
The Insurance Company Allowed YOU $5000.00 to Replace Your Roof. Your Deductible Is $500.00 So You Receive a Check For $4500.00.
If you choose a contractor to replace your roof for $4500.00 you are legally required to pay the insurance company back the $500.00 you did not use.
Example 2
The Insurance Company Allowed You $5000.00 to Replace Your Roof. Your Deductible Is $500.00 And Your Total Withheld Recoverable Depreciation Is $2000.00 You will Receive $2500.00.
If You Choose a Contractor to Replace Your Roof For $3500.00, You Will Only Receive $500.00 Of The Recoverable Depreciation Because . . .
"The amount of recoverable depreciation will be based on the lesser of the adjusters estimate or the actual costs incurred on damaged areas only"
or . . .
"If you have replacement cost coverage, you may be entitled to the withheld recoverable depreciation after repairs have been completed, provided the cost of the repairs exceed the amount of your deductible and your initial claim payment".
All you pay is the deductible amount regardless of the price so why not get the best?
You are only saving the insurance company money and costing yourself quality when you get several estimates. By letting a professional negotiate with the insurance company, we can make sure that you get everything necessary for a quality restoration.
Besides, what reward will the insurance company give you for finding the best price for them? Will they lower your premium?
Your insurance company will pay a reputable contractor a "fair market price".
You should concentrate on choosing a reputable contractor who will use superior quality materials rather than concentrating on price.
All you are required to pay is your deductible in most cases so it is impossible for you to overpay.
All you are required to pay is your deductible in most cases so it is impossible for you to overpay.
Which Contractor Should I Hire?
Only choose a contractor who is willing to help you with the claims process. The cost for repairs for your home is then determined by the insurance company and the contractor.
This keeps you from over-paying!
We have successfully completed hundreds of storm damage repairs and we have the experience needed to work on your behalf. We are a STATEWIDE FULL-SERVICE CONTRACTOR and have been in business for over 69 years.
We have extensive experience in working with insurance companies to replace your Hail Damaged roof, siding, windows, awnings and more.
Beware of contractors that will not pull a permit!
Beware of contractors that are giving low prices!
Beware of contractors that cannot produce an insurance certificate!
Beware of contractors that ask you to sign a document that has a price more than what your insurance company has paid you . . .
Unless . . .
your insurance company has agreed to pay the total price,
Or . . .
you and your contractor have agreed on a fair price
negotiations with the insurance company have failed.
Your insurance carrier has trained professionals representing them?
Do You?

What Are You Worth?
The debate over healthcare and insurance is one that is best understood and appreciated by people who know what it's like to be sick and not be able to afford the needed treatment. Years ago, I suffered what was supposed to be minor stomach flu. I had all the classic symptoms: nausea, diarrhea, cramps, and fever. The cramps went from bad to worse, and while I feared that what I was suffering might have been worse than the stomach flu, I made Google my doctor and refused to go to the hospital Continue Reading
Lessons Hollywood Can Learn From Nollywood
Two weeks ago, I had the pleasure of watching the Golden Globe Awards. While I enjoy watching almost most awards of this kind, I usually do not get to watch the red carpet.

But this time, I sat in front of my television at 6pm, searched for Channel E, and enjoyed the red carpet. From the red carpet to the actual award show, I could not help but notice some differences between Continue Reading

My Meeting With Professor Viola Onwuliri, Minister of Foreign Affairs
With the exception of my birthday having been the previous day, Sunday, January 15th 2012 would have been like any other Sunday.

But at about 4 PM on this Sunday, I received notification via Facebook that Professor Viola Adaku Onwuliri, Nigeria's Minister of Foreign Affairs was having a town hall kind of meeting with Nigerians in my area. The first instinct was to dismiss the message, but it was Continue Reading

Life's Like That Sometimes

The Encinitas Station Certified Farmer's Market goes single use plastic bag free in 2013
The Encinitas Station Certified Farmer's Market is under new management. Carris Rhodes, a local community member and former program assistant at the Downtown Encinitas MainStreet Association (DEMA), will now be managing the Wednesday evening market. Wednesday evenings will come alive in downtown Encinitas. On the calendar for 2013 Rhodes is working with Whole Foods to bring foodie films to Pacific Station on Wednesday evenings. Rhodes has also been working with local chefs to get farmer's market produce and special farmer's market creations on their menu for Wednesday evenings. The market will also feature more organic produce vendors in 2013 and will have quarterly special events like food demos and market tours. Bike/Walk Encinitas, a community group dedicated to promoting bike and pedestrian accessibility will be parking bikes and handing out bike bucks to those who ride to the farmer's marker. For the month of January Rhodes also encourages those who ride the coaster to and from downtown Encinitas to show their pass at the market managers booth and receive $2 market dollars to spend at any stall you like!
The market is also making the new years resolution to go single use plastic bag free! The market will be getting a head start on their resolution by participating in Day Without a Bag, a county wide event dedicated to raising awareness and going plastic bag free. Although Day Without a Bag is on Thursday December 20th, the market will be implementing the program one day earlier this wednesday evening. For several years, the city of Encinitas has been investigating a city wide ban on single use plastic bags. DEMA will be partnering with other downtown merchants to pass out re-usable bags to customers throughout the month of January.
Rhodes' goal is to integrate the farmer's market into the Wednesday evening culture and every day lives of all who visit and live near Downtown Encinitas. The market is intended to fill the need for a mid week farmers market in Encinitas. Carris Rhodes, former Program Assistant at DEMA was the lead on the project and is thrilled to be serving as market manger again. DEMA has been the main coordinator of this farmers market and aims to bolster foot-traffic in the downtown Encinitas district while giving residents more access to fresh, organic local produce. This market was designed to be a compliment to the Sunday Farmer's Market coordinated by DEMA's sister organization the Leucadia MainStreet. The Leucadia Market is held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Paul Ecke Elementary on Union Street. Please call or email Carris Rhodes for more information or market pictures.
Carris Rhodes: 760.688.8275, firstname.lastname@example.com
The Market is held every Wednesday, rain or shine, 4pm-7pm October through April and 5pm-8pm May through September at Parking lot B 600 South Vulcan Ave, Corner of E Street and Vulcan.

(1) Term of office of a duly elected and qualified school district director is not affected by the reorganization of the district which changes the boundary lines of the director district so as to eliminate his director district.
(2) The director from the eliminated director district is legally qualified to hold his office until the expiration of the full term for which he was elected.
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
March 25, 1959
Honorable John J. LallyProsecuting AttorneySpokane CountySpokane 1, Washington Cite as: AGO 59-60 No. 25
Attention: !ttMr. Art Hansen,Civil Deputy
Dear Sir:
By letter previously acknowledged you requested an opinion of this office on several questions arising out of a proposed change of boundaries of director districts in a second class school district by the county committee. We believe a determination of the following questions will adequately answer your inquiry:
(1) Does a change in the boundary lines of the director districts by the county committee on school district organization so as to eliminate one of the former districts affect in any way the term of office of the director residing in the district eliminated?
(2) If question (1) is answered in the negative, would the director from the eliminated director district serve only until the next election or would he serve until the expiration of his full term?
[[Orig. Op. Page 2]]
We answer question (1) in the negative. In answer to question (2) it is our opinion that the director from the eliminated director district would be legally qualified to hold his office until the expiration of the full term for which he was elected.
In your letter you advised this office that there is in Spokane county a second class school district which is divided into five director districts; that because of the population growth in certain director districts the county committee, under the authority of RCW 28.57.050 (7), is contemplating rearranging the director districts by splitting one of the two present residential districts into two districts and combining the three rural districts into two director districts.
At the outset it should be noted, for the purpose of clarity, that we are here concerned with a change in boundaries of existing director districts of a school district by the county committee, and not an original division of a district into director districts under RCW 28.57.050 (6). The effect of the latter upon the existing board of directors is governed by RCW 28.57.370.
The legislature created the county committees on school district organization and vested them with the power to make the territorial organization of school districts more readily adaptable to the needs of the changing economic pattern and educational program in this state. SeeWheeler School District v. Hawley, 18 Wn. (2d) 37, 137 P. (2d) 1010; RCW 28.57.010 and RCW 28.58.010.
RCW 28.57.050 provides, in pertinent part, as follows:
"The powers and duties of the county committee shall be:
"(7) To rearrange at any time the committee deem such action advisable in order to correct inequalities caused by changes in population, the boundaries of any of the directors' districts of any school district heretofore so divided except a district of the third class, and of any district hereafter so divided: Provided, That a petition therefore, signed by at least five heads of families residing in the aforesaid school district, is presented to the county superintendent and a public hearing thereon is held by the county committee, . . ."
[[Orig. Op. Page 3]]
Although this statute expressly grants to the county committee the power to change the boundary lines of the director districts in a second class district, we find no provision either in chapter 28.57 RCW or in the entire school code, which declares the effect of such a change in boundary lines upon the right of any member of the board of directors thereof to continue to hold office, where his residence in his director district may be affected thereby.
In respect to vacancies on the board of directors of a second class district, section 3, page 298, chapter 97, Laws of 1909 (cf. RCW 28.63.020) provides as follows:
"In case the electors of any district of the second class shall neglect or fail to elect directors as hereinbefore provided, the county superintendent may declare vacant the office of any director at the expiration of his term;and in case of a vacancy in the board of directors from any cause, the county superintendent, in conjunction with other directors if there be two, shall fill such vacancy by appointment until the fourth Monday following the next annual election." (Emphasis supplied.)
The grounds or causes creating a vacancy in the office of school director not being defined in the above statute or any other statute relating to second class school districts, we must look to the general law of this state governing vacancies in public office. RCW 42.12.010 provides, in part, as follows:
"Every office shall become vacant on the happening of either of the following events before theexpiration of the term of such officer. . . . fourth, his ceasing to be an inhabitant of the district, county, town or village for which he shall have been elected or appointed or within which the duties of his office are to be discharged; . . ." (Emphasis supplied.)
In order to resolve the question here presented, we must only determine: Whether a school director is an officer of the director district in which he resides or whether he is an officer of the entire school district although required to be a resident of a specific director district at the time of his election?
It must be borne in mind that: (1) a school district is a municipal corporation (RCW 28.58.010;Wheeler School District v. Hawley, supra; Juntila v. Everett School District No. 24, 178 Wash. 637, 35 P. (2d) 78; State ex rel. Griffiths v. Superior Court, 177 Wash. 619, 33 P. (2d) 94;Seattle High School v. Sharples, 159 Wash. 424, 293 Pac. 994; AGO 59-60 No. 13) [[Orig. Op. Page 4]] and (2) the governing body of the school district is the board of directors. RCW 28.58.080; State ex rel. Griffiths v. Superior Court, supra.
The board of directors of a second class school district consists of five members (RCW 28.58.080), one member being elected from among the residents of each of the five director districts by the electors of the entire school district. RCW 28.57.350. The directors are elected for a term of four years and hold office until their successors are elected and qualified. RCW 28.58.080.
From an examination of the statutory provisions relative to the general powers and duties of all class school districts (RCW 28.58.100) and considering the exclusive control which the boards exercise over all the school property in their respective districts, (RCW 28.58.010), we must conclude that the board of directors of a school district are officers of the entire district and are not merely officers of their respective director districts. Accordingly, it is our opinion that no action by the county committee, changing the boundary lines of the director districts can affect the right of any director to hold office until the expiration of his term. Regardless of any change in boundaries of the director districts, the director continues to reside in theschool district for which he was elected and within which the duties of his office are to be discharged and, thus, no vacancy is created. RCW 42.12.010,supra.
This conclusion is supported by the reasoning of our court inState ex rel. O'Connell v. Nelson, 7 Wash. 114, wherein the court held that a duly elected and qualified overseer, who was a resident and elector of the road district in which he was elected, at the time of his election, did not become disqualified to hold office by reason of the fact that the county commissioners thereafter changed the boundaries of the road district so as to place his residence in another road district.
Furthermore, this conclusion is consistent with the views expressed by this office in opinions written to the prosecuting attorney of Spokane county, dated July 10, 1940, and the prosecuting attorney of Snohomish county, dated March 1, 1911 [[1911-12 OAG 8]]concerning the "office" of county commissioner. Copies of these opinions are attached hereto for your consideration.
In answer to your second question as to when the term of office of a school director ends under the facts hereinbefore stated, it is our opinion that the director of a director district which is eliminated by a reorganization of the director districts is legally qualified and entitled to hold his office until the expiration of the full term for which he was elected. RCW 28.58.080.
In passing we should like to point out that we have considered the possible effect upon the questions presented herein of House Bill No. 415 which [[Orig. Op. Page 5]] was passed during the regular 1959 session of the Washington State Legislature. This bill makes certain amendments to the existing school district reorganization law (chapter 28.57 RCW) discussed herein; however, assuming that it will become law, we find no provision therein which would affect in any way the conclusions stated above.
We trust this information will be of assistance to you.
Very truly yours,
JOHN J. O'CONNELLAttorney General
ROBERT J. DORANAssistant Attorney General

Maryport Blues Festival date for House of Three Hands
Last updated at 20:36, Thursday, 24 May 2012
A young Cumbrian band, set to perform on the main stage at this year's Maryport Blues Festival, will soon be recording their first album.
House of Three Hands have just been signed by independent label Longevity Records.
It is a huge deal for Jake Wedgewood, 19, of Mawbray, Alex Brown, 20, from Whitehaven and Dave Annis, 19, from Carlisle.
They will record original material in the Blueprint Studios in Manchester, where the likes of Lady Gaga, 50 Cent and Elbow have worked.
The band's luck was in after a chance encounter with Radio One DJ Chris Moyles at Carlisle's Big Weekend music show last year, which resulted in an eight-minute session on the station.
Jake recalls: "We were about to do a gig and Chris Moyles saw a flyer and asked if the band was good.
"Chris came and liked it. He talked about us and played our music. We couldn't believe it."
Jake and Alex are living in Salford, Manchester, where Alex works and Jake studies music. Dave is in Bristol studying music.
It makes the logistics difficult, especially when the band have gigs nearly every weekend.
The band started out as Kape Town Kicks about four years ago, but the name of House of Three Hands came when three people cupped their hands around a cigarette as it was being lit to shield it from the wind.
"This looks like a house with three hands," someone commented, and the name stuck.
Says Jake: "I suppose if you wanted to categorise us we could be described as alternative indie. Some people think we sound like the Police, some like the Arctic Monkeys."
The boys are set to release three singles between now and 2013.
Jake adds: "We're still not earning much money and I can't say we feel as though we are on the brink of something. But things are going really well and we are very busy.
That will include their appearance at Maryport Blues Festival on Friday, July 27.
Says Jake: "Two years ago I took my girlfriend to the blues festival as an audience member. Then last year House of Three Hands played at the Captain Nelson during the festival which was fantastic.
"This year we are on the main stage, and looking forward to it."

I have been using for 3 months daily and have seen a real difference in my melasma which has faded. I had been using prescription hydrocortisone but you cannot use long term and was concerned with side affects. I love that a little goes a long way. You get 1.2 times MORE product than other leading comparable serums. I have been using with lemon cleansing milk. My skin has a glow and is very moisturizered! Do try!!!

Two problems with that. A shot in the leg will still do pretty major damage, blood loss and infections still pose a risk to the person's life, and even if he survives that, the leg is likely to take permanent damage. Also, hitting a specific point on a moving target is bloody difficult - it's much better to aim for the center of mass, giving you a higher chance to hit something at all. Aiming at the head isn't quite a good idea either, but it's better than going for the legs.

The Queue: Again and again {WoW}
Feb 3rd 2010 6:42AM Muse: Most likely, Vanilla WoW boxes will still install the original game, as will WotLK boxes, but when the patch process reaches 4.0, the new world will be installed over the old. Cataclysm boxes, if you can install the full game from them like you could with WotLK, will start from 4.0, and thus install the new world directly.
Creating a new vanilla box with the new world installed would be a lot of work for little benefit, as all the patches still need to be installed. It could also create confusion between old vanilla boxes and new ones. I don't think they'd do it.
In defense of care packages and mandatory authenticators {WoW}
Jan 12th 2010 2:06AM "But that even has an easy fix. Once a token is used for a successful login, it's no longer any good. For my wife and I, who share an authenticator, we wouldn't be able to use the same key like we usually do. It would inconvenience us by 60 seconds every login. That's a small price to pay for a world where nobody gets their account hacked."
This is how it works already, though most likely on a per-account basis if you and your wife can use the same code - so each code works only once per account.

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 Buster!
Facts about Buster
- Breed: French Bulldog/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) Mix
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Buster's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
For more information please visit our website at www.rrocf.org. There you can view our adoption policies, fees, complete our online adoption application (required), as well as a list of upcoming adoption events. Due to the high volume of telephone calls we receive, please do not call or email asking for more information (all the info is on our website). Thank you!
Other Pets at RUFF Rescue of Central Florida, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Buster, a Minneola French Bulldog/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a French Bulldog/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) for sale in Minneola, or seeking a French Bulldog/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) puppy from a breeder in Minneola.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Minneola 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 Minneola 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 French Bulldog/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) breeders who help with French Bulldog/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Minneola paves the way for another one to be saved.

[...] Montana Indian reservations to get sex abuse response teams [...]
A pilot program to help victims of rape find "justice and recovery" is being launched on Montana's six reservations.
AP reporter Matt Brown has the full story:
One in three Native women have been victims of sexual assault.
But Acting Associate Attorney General Tony West said the sexual assault response teams could give victims new confidence in the criminal justice system.
West joined U.S. Attorney for Montana Mike Cotter and tribal leaders from eastern Montana's Crow Indian Reservation Wednesday in Crow Agency to announce the initiative.
. . .
Crow Vice-Chairman Calvin Coolidge Jefferson said he hoped that with the new program, "our mothers and sisters will have access to justice and to recovery."
"I want to encourage victims, survivors and their family members to come forward, to offer support for each other in the pursuit of justice and healing," Jefferson said.

If you like the itinerary below please quote REF AFRICA 745 when enquiring for further details.
Alternatively you may like modify this trip with your own Holiday Wish List
Welcome to Nairobi and the start of your African Adventure! Upon arrival you will be met by our representative, given a short safari briefing before being transferred to your hotel.
This morning you will be transferred to Wilson airport for your short flight to Samburu National Reserve. You will be met on arrival and transferred to the Elephant Bedroom Camp with the opportunity of animal viewing enroute. This afternoon enjoy your first game drive. All three big cats, lion, cheetah and leopard, can be found here, as well as elephants, buffalos and hippos. Also frequently seen in the park are gerenuk, gazelle, dik-dik, waterbuck, Zebra, Beisa Oryx and Reticulated giraffe. Rhinos are no longer present in the park due to heavy poaching. Overnight Elephant Bedroom Camp
Today you will enjoy morning and afternoon game drives. Samburu National Reserve straddles the muddy Uaso Nyiro River and is one of the most picturesque parks of northern Kenya. Clusters of doum palms and acacia crowd the banks of the river and dry river beds that carve through the reserve. As the main source of sustenance, the river is a focal point for wildlife and birds, both of which are plentiful. The park is hot and so activities are normally concentrated in the early morning and late afternoon. In between game drives you can enjoy the facilities at the camp. Overnight Elephant Bedroom Camp
After breakfast at the camp, transfer to the airstrip for your flight back to Nairobi with picnic lunches. Remain in transit for your onward flight to Amboseli National Reserve at the foot of Mt Kilimanjaro. You will be met by a 4x4 land cruiser and immediately commnece on a game drive in the park, before checking in at your lodge for dinner and overnight.
An early start to the day as you wake up at sunrise to make the most of the early morning games drives. This time of day is also the best chance you may have of seeing Mt Kilimanjaro in all its glory. Amboseli is one of the smaller reserves but it has a wide range of wildlife, even the endangered black rhino. The park is known for its large herds of free-ranging African elephants and old bull elephants here can have some of the largest tusks in Africa. There are over 900 African elephants in Amboseli, as well as huge herds of wildebeests and many other animals including giraffes, African lions, monkeys, zebras, hyenas and antelope.
Today you will be transferred to Arusha for lunch, after lunch drive to Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge where the rest of the day is at your leisure.
Imagine a giant bowl teeming with wildlife, in the middle of the African bush and you are close to an idea of the Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania, which is a vast and unbroken volcanic crater ring known as a caldera. Thanks to a permanent water and pasture source, the crater floor plays host to nearly every species of African animal. Zebra, buffalo, black rhino and wildebeest graze amongst the predatory lion, cheetah and hyena. The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the last remaining areas in Tanzania where you can see the endangered Black Rhino. Depart today with a picnic lunch and descend down in to the crater floor for a full day of game driving.
This morning we drive to Lake Manyara National Park for a morning game drive. Lake Manyara is a scenic park which is only 330 square kilometres in area, of which about 230 square kilometres are lake. The park contains a large variety of habitats: the rift wall, the ground water forest, acacia woodland, areas of open grassland, the lake shore, swamp, and the lake itself. After your game drive you will be taken to Kogatende airstrip where you will fly to Olakira Camp.
Over the next two days you will enjoy morning and afternoon game drives in search of the 'Big 5' in the Serengeti National Park. The Serengeti is Tanzania's oldest and most popular national park, also a world heritage site and recently proclaimed a 7th world-wide wonder. There will be some great photo opportunities so have your camera ready.
After breakfast depart for the airstrip for a fight to Tarime airstrip, you will be transferred to Migori airstrip for your onward flight to the Maasai Mara. Upon arrival you will be taken to the Little Governors Camp. Tucked away around its own private watering hole, Little Governors' Camp is accessible only by a boat ride across the Mara River followed by a short walk through the forest. All vehicles are left on the far river bank leaving the camp quiet and peaceful at all times. The camp is unfenced, there is a resident family of warthogs who wander freely around the grounds and guests may at times need to make way for elephants which sometimes visit the camp at lunch time.
Rise early and take an optional balloon safari across the Masai Mara (additional cost). Take off in the crisp morning air to experience a game-viewing adventure with an entirely different perspective as you silently float across the plains, forest and rivers for approximately an hour. The day sees more game viewing both in the morning and late afternoon. For the bird lovers there are over 450 species that have been identified in the Masai Mara Ecosystem.
Morning and afternoon game drives in the Mara Reserve over the next two days. The Masai Mara forms part of the huge Serengeti ecosystem and spreads over 1510 square kilometres of rolling plains, sudden rocky outcrops and green winding rivers. Not only is the Mara blessed with this stunning landscape, but its animal diversity is one of the greatest in Africa. Surrounded by the grazing lands of the Masai people, it is a sanctuary for lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino and leopard.
After breakfast, if time permits, enjoy a game drive on route to the airstrip for your flight back to Nairobi. You will be met and transferred to the international airport in time for your onward flight.

Sundown: Talmud OKs Obama's Bow
Plus against 'going Muslim,' Israel's defenders, and more
• A blogger compares the kerfuffle over President Barack Obama's bow to Japanese Emperor Akihito with the tale from the Book of Esther in which valiant Mordechai refuses to bow to evil Haman, which Talmudic rabbis felt was "a needlessly obstinate decision to make a point in public" and had to justify it by explaining that the Persian minister wore an idol around his neck. [Beliefnet]
• A writer for Religion Dispatches takes issue with a recent Forbes commentary on the Fort Hood shooting titled "Going Muslim," a play on the phrase "going postal": "If a fanatic fundamentalist Christian kills an abortion doctor, is he 'going Christian,' or should an Israeli soldier who loses it be considered as 'going Jewish'?" [RD]
• White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said that Israel's plan to construct 900 new housing units in Jerusalem will make peace efforts "more difficult," which is hard to imagine. [AP]
• U.S. Orthodox groups are miffed at the State Department's latest International Religious Freedom Report, which declares that Israel "discriminates" against non-Jews and non-Orthodox Jews, and "appears harsher" than past years' assessments. [JTA]

Some Glitter Charges Dropped
January 4th, 2006
Vietnamese police determined the evidence against Gary Glitter was insufficient to accuse him of rape, however he is still charged with lewd conduct with children. Glitter alternately claimed that the girls he is associated with had told him they were of age, and also that he was teaching them English. He is still facing up to twelve years in prison.http://www.aversion.com/news/news_article.cfm?news_id=5658

Radio Golf
What's possibly brave about the final play of August Wilson's life, and consequently in his Pittsburgh Cycle, is that none of his characters (nor indeed black America) emerges unsullied by the whole affair.
At its heart is money and the role of the black minority in white, middle class America.
Property developers Harmond Wicks and Roosevelt Hicks are driven by profit at all costs. Wife Mame Wicks rides on her husband's coat tails in her own search for power.
Elder Joseph Barlow is a trickster and a con artist, who believes that a kindly air can forgive a crime. And Sterling Johnson is an under-achiever, who is jealous of success without wanting to work for it.
He doesn't necessarily trudge that well-worn, hackneyed and sanctimonious literary route that suggests to be wealthy a person must give up the moral high ground.
Fecklessness does not give a man the right to preach morality. Just as wealth and hard work does not give one the right to crush others. No stone-caster is without sin.
In her direction, Paulette Randall occasionally allows her actors to be static for too long and to be over-dramatic in the otherwise naturalistic dialogue.
Julie Sanders, as Mame Wicks, fares worst, and isn't allowed to occupy her character. Sterling Johnson as Ray Shell - the Shakespeare's Fool character whom Wilson often employs - also teeters between the play's naturalistic home and an enforced theatrical delivery.
It does not deflect, however, from what is a well-crafted play that allows exposition to smash through the plot like a wrecking ball - and yet manages to maintain credibility.
This is due in no small part to Danny Sapani as the Obama-like Wicks, Roger Griffiths as his punchy partner Hicks and Joseph Marcell's sage-like con artist Elder Joseph Barlow.
This trinity ably carries the play's credibility on their shoulders, with their workman-like performances. They give depth to what otherwise might have been a shallow interpretation of a great writer's final work.

The sun is shining, there's a half-finished copy of Bioshock Infinite back home, I've got a third-hand 3DS in the post (it cost £80 - sucks to be you, launch buyers!) and another long Easter weekend is upon us. How are you spending yours - engaging in religious ceremonies? Decapitating make-believe rabbits? Dying of chocolate? Visiting your drunken excesses on relatives? Or playing videogames?
If it's the latter - and assuming you haven't picked up one of this spring's top contenders, such as Bioshock Infinite or Tomb Raider - I suggest getting ahold of one of the under-sung, not-quite-perfect but well-fleshed titles below. Feel free to make a recommendation or two in return.
1. Kingdoms of Amalur: The Reckoning
It's tempting to look kindly on 38 Studios and Big Huge Games' somewhat flaccid open-world RPG, in light of the developer's bankruptcy and demise - but we are Men of Stone, uncompromising in our desire for excellence. So yes, the universe remains elaborate but boring, the graphics are fugly to the point of PS2-era blandness, and the quests are all "walk here, collect/kill this". But the third-person fighting is startlingly worthwhile for a game that looks like just another stat cruncher - as limber and fluid as that of Fable, but far meatier in terms of abilities, spells and weapons, and thus supportive of many different techniques. Definitely worth adding to your end-of-generation clean-up list, if you're keen on this sort of thing. Here's my review.
2. Magna Carta 2
This one comes care of the forum and Grummy. "In many ways it's standard JRPG fare," he writes, "The typical JRPG style of writing and characters, typical aesthetic, but the world is just very well realised." After reading that I looked up our review, which notes that "the plot marks its twists with all the subtlety of a dog urinating up a tree", but describes the game as a "guilty pleasure" with "deep and accessible" team-based real-time combat that "doesn't take itself too seriously". Colour me just about sold.
3. Overlord 2
If you take one horde of gibbering, rancorous hellfiends home this weekend, make it that of Overlord 2 - a bulkier, more complex version of the game that made it Good to be Bad. Triumph's sequel casts you once again as an agent of darkness backed by legions of minions, and asks you to claim an offensively syrupy fantasy world for evil. Those minions! They're such characters - levellable ones, in fact. Point them at something using the right stick and they'll sweep across the screen in a rainbow tide and trample it to dust, returning moments later decked out in the spoils of war. In Overlord 2 it's possible for minions to ride mounts, doubling the tactical variations. With around 20 hours of playtime in store, you'll need to get a move on if you want this done and dusted by Monday. Check out our review for more.

Black suede pumps
ordered black suede pumps. They seem small and they might have been more comfortable a half size larger
The Villages, FL
Awesome shoes
These are the most comfortable pumps I have ever worn. I bought the black patent, and they are simply gorgeous and sexy, but the best thing is they feel as comfortable as an old pair of sneakers! I am purchasing more colors!
Miller Place, NY
Not comfortable at all
I went by the many reviews and ordered these in a half size larger. BIG MISTAKE! I put insoles in them hoping to make them a bit tighter, but no such luck. As with the other pair of shoes I just received, my toes got very sore just from wearing them around the house. Sadly these will be returned.
Dale City, Va
Cute but runs small
Gorgeous shoes..order a size up..they are super tiny..i just received my exchanged and they fit perfect..
Lovely shoe
Great looking shoe;I ordered the tortoise and it's real cute-not really a stilletto but still is a little high(but looks sexy) I agree with the other comment; order a 1/2 size larger; I usually take anywhere from 7 1/2- 8. The last shoe I ordered could have been 1/2 size smaller-big mistake; go up 1/2 size. Sharon
Pine Bush NY
Runs Small
I bought the taupe shoe and love it but the shoe runs small. Best to buy 1/2 size larger.
Clinton, MS
Initially, I bought this shoe in black and it is very comfortable and I recieved many compliments on this shoe. I just bought the nude color shoe to go with the soft pastle colors of Spring and it is comfortable as well.

Great shoes!
I absolutely love, love this shoe! Its basic but stylish. The heel is perfect without feeling like your foot is sliding forward. I wear these mostly to church and always receive compliments. I'm buying all colors.

Very comfortable, stylish shoe
I purchased the tortoise color shoe and it is beautiful! It fits well and I wore these all day at work with no problems at all. They are a very comfortable shoe! They are very stylish as well! These shoes are keepers for sure!

Has anyone on these forums added on to an existing patio slab? More specifically, with a different material? I'm thinking of adding on with pavers or flagstone to one side and a slightly raised wooden deck to the other. I'm just having a little trouble visualizing and worried that it might look too "pieced together." If you have done something like this or know of any pictures of something similar, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks. Matt |

Yes, I believe what you are thinking can be done and will look finished. Ititially is may look "added" but time will soften the difference. Our patio is brick paver but the retaining wall is of concrete block. As you can imagine when new there was a distinctive difference but after a few years not too much. And our egress porch is a deck but we stained it white. Here are photos which may help your vision. Hope this helps. |

The Lawbringer: Dispelling the panda myths {WoW}
Oct 28th 2011 11:36PM The "racism" between the Japanese and Chinese is one of those thing that goes as far back as history allows.
As someone who's of Japanese decent I can tell you there are members of my family who, to this day, loathe China/Taiwan and everything from there. My grandmother refuses to buy anything made in either country cause they are made by "barbarians". I was taught growing up that products from these countries were unclean.
It's like the Hatfields and McCoys. It's a feud that has been going on for thousands of years and will go on for a thousand more. Most of the time, the kids only carry it on because they learn from their parents, who learned from theirs etc.....It's sad but true :(

Well I played it. I'd give it an 8.5/10
It was pretty interesting at times but there were some odd problems. The architecture and stuff was all nice and skillfully made but why were there like no secret areas marked? I've clearly found some areas that were secret. There was only 1 level I think that actually had them since I saw in automap it said there were 5 secrets. Also the weapon animations seemed to have been modified to have the muzzle flash frame appear for only 1 game tick. That makes no sense to me since it needlessly changed the animations and I wouldn't say it was for the better or anything. What was the point of the machine gun. It seemed to behave exactly like the chaingun except its recoil wasn't in that straight line pattern. Once I got the chaingun I never used the machine gun since they used the same ammo and the machine gun sounded super lame. IDK why but in Wolf 3D that sound fits, but definitely not in Doom heh. Also the Rifle sound used the same sound effect which was weird... There were a lot of switch hunts to open random doors and then backtracking to figure out what was opened. At one point it opened a vent or something which was very unnoticeable. On Phobos Anomaly there was one area where I was fighting a Cacodemon and a Pain Elemental outside through a window. The linedef for the window was impassable so the lost souls launched by the pain elemental couldn't even get to me. The Rifle and Boxes of Rifle ammo looked too much like shotguns. I could only tell I picked up the rilfe or rifle ammo by suddenly noticing the ammo for it went up. Usually people familiarize themselves with some graphic and after a while simply notice the sillhouette to know what it is. So the boxes of shotgun ammo looked exactly like boxes of rifle ammo. I never did notice whether or not it actually had a different label or something... Also this was clearly a Zdoom map set. I saw features that could only be used by Zdoom like colored fog sectors and the fact that the game was modified without a dehacked patch. In the readme it says best played with Zdoom but I'm sure it can only be played with Zdoom. This also makes me wonder why more Zdoom features weren't used, such as slopes... |

I give it a 10/10. The architecture and design from room to room was fresh and still maintained the classic Doom feel, also the addition of new weapons and changed gun animations were refreshing and I consider them an improvement. I was also really happy the levels weren't riddled with secrets, when I play Doom I feel like mass killing, not checking walls for secret doors and bullshit like that.

I have found the sealy purembrace autumn garden ltd(latex mattress) on a macy's website and the company that I am working with said it bought them out from macy's. Is this most likely the same mattress? if so, that is great but I don't want to be scammed for some inferior mattress since they are not giving me money back and wont give me any credit for anything else.
Hi Jay. I can't say, for sure, that it is the same mattress. However, it is a good choice. That mattress has a latex core and is a plush, which should have a medium feel. You will find that you sleep much cooler on a latex mattress.

31 October 2007
The first graduates from Cardiff University's academy to train opera stars will be showcasing their vocal and performance skills in a succession of concerts throughout November.
Students from the Cardiff International Academy of Voice (CIAV), which provides individual voice coaching to some of the most exciting talent in world opera, will give a series of song recitals and an operatic gala over the course of the month.
Held at the University Concert Hall on Corbett Road, the first concert on Friday 2 November 2007 showcases music by British composers both celebrated and neglected, together with Lieder by Schubert and Schumann (including his tender song-cycle encapsulating a woman's love and life, 'Frauenliebe und -leben') and a handful of songs which survived the Frenchman Henri Duparc's destruction of his own output.
Cardiff based pianist Michael Pollock will play for the first two song recitals, the second of which will be held on November 9th when the first song-cycle ever composed - Beethoven's passionate hymn to the distant beloved, 'An die ferne Geliebte' will be performed alongside music by a German composer of a later generation, Richard Strauss; the Russian outpourings of Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov are then contrasted with the warmth and exuberance of songs from Spain and Latin America.
Renowned Welsh Tenor Dennis O'Neill is the Director of the Cardiff International Academy of Voice: "These concerts should be a real treat for anyone interested in opera or singing because some of the students have already begun making quite a name for themselves around the world, and have taken this early career break in order to refine their technique. The concert series is really exciting and provides an ideal opportunity to display this amazing talent."
The academy opened its doors to its first group of exceptional, early-professional stage operatic stars in January. The Song Recital Series allows the students to exhibit their new found skills, and offers the public the chance to hear singers from countries such as Australia, Ireland, Lithuania, Romania and Wales, many of whom have the potential to become opera stars of the future.
Pelham Andrews is one of the CIAV students who will be performing in the first concert on November 2, singing pieces by Schubert and 'Three Shakespeare Songs' by Roger Quilter. Pelham, originally from Australia said: "For opera singers, the chance to explore in recital some of the vast repertoire of classical song is a special event, and often adds even more vivid colours to the operatic voice. We have an exciting partnership with pianist Michael Pollock that can really bring the poems, stories and music to life."
Joining Pelham in the first of the Recital Series concerts will be fellow CIAV students Norah King, Jurgita Adamonytė and Paul O'Neil. Further concerts will be held on the 9 and 16 of November, and the autumn concert series will culminate with a lively Operatic Gala on the 30 November where CIAV students will perform a stirring collection of operatic arias, duets and ensembles.
The Song Recital Series concerts start at 7.30pm and tickets can be bought for £9 (concessions £7) on 029 2048 1853, or firstname.lastname@example.com.
