Excerpts from Barack Obama's State of the Union Address
President Obama gave a long and strangely intimate speech tonight in his first State of the Union address. It was at once a canny political performance—the equivalent of taking penalty kick after penalty kick at an opponent's untended goal—and an impassioned cry against the zero-sum partisanship that has reduced Washington to gridlock. Here are a few notable excerpts.
On the economy:
Our most urgent task upon taking office was to shore up the same banks that helped cause this crisis. It was not easy to do. And if there's one thing that has unified Democrats and Republicans, it's that we all hated the bank bailout. I hated it. You hated it. It was about as popular as a root canal.
But when I ran for President, I promised I wouldn't just do what was popular - I would do what was necessary. And if we had allowed the meltdown of the financial system, unemployment might be double what it is today. More businesses would certainly have closed. More homes would have surely been lost.
So I supported the last administration's efforts to create the financial rescue program. And when we took the program over, we made it more transparent and accountable. As a result, the markets are now stabilized, and we have recovered most of the money we spent on the banks.
To recover the rest, I have proposed a fee on the biggest banks. I know Wall Street isn't keen on this idea, but if these firms can afford to hand out big bonuses again, they can afford a modest fee to pay back the taxpayers who rescued them in their time of need.
On global competitiveness:
From the day I took office, I have been told that addressing our larger challenges is too ambitious - that such efforts would be too contentious, that our political system is too gridlocked, and that we should just put things on hold for awhile.
For those who make these claims, I have one simple question:
How long should we wait? How long should America put its future on hold?
You see, Washington has been telling us to wait for decades, even as the problems have grown worse. Meanwhile, China's not waiting to revamp its economy. Germany's not waiting. India's not waiting. These nations aren't standing still. These nations aren't playing for second place. They're putting more emphasis on math and science. They're rebuilding their infrastructure. They are making serious investments in clean energy because they want those jobs.
Well I do not accept second-place for the United States of America. As hard as it may be, as uncomfortable and contentious as the debates may be, it's time to get serious about fixing the problems that are hampering our growth.
On health care reform:
As temperatures cool, I want everyone to take another look at the plan we've proposed. There's a reason why many doctors, nurses, and health care experts who know our system best consider this approach a vast improvement over the status quo. But if anyone from either party has a better approach that will bring down premiums, bring down the deficit, cover the uninsured, strengthen Medicare for seniors, and stop insurance company abuses, let me know. Here's what I ask of Congress, though: Do not walk away from reform. Not now. Not when we are so close. Let us find a way to come together and finish the job for the American people.
On the budget freeze:
Starting in 2011, we are prepared to freeze government spending for three years. Spending related to our national security, Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security will not be affected. But all other discretionary government programs will. Like any cash-strapped family, we will work within a budget to invest in what we need and sacrifice what we don't. And if I have to enforce this discipline by veto, I will.
On the problem of partisanship:
Now, I am not naive. I never thought the mere fact of my election would usher in peace, harmony, and some post-partisan era. I knew that both parties have fed divisions that are deeply entrenched. And on some issues, there are simply philosophical differences that will always cause us to part ways. These disagreements, about the role of government in our lives, about our national priorities and our national security, have been taking place for over two hundred years. They are the very essence of our democracy.
But what frustrates the American people is a Washington where every day is Election Day. We cannot wage a perpetual campaign where the only goal is to see who can get the most embarrassing headlines about their opponent - a belief that if you lose, I win. Neither party should delay or obstruct every single bill just because they can. The confirmation of well-qualified public servants should not be held hostage to the pet projects or grudges of a few individual Senators. Washington may think that saying anything about the other side, no matter how false, is just part of the game. But it is precisely such politics that has stopped either party from helping the American people. Worse yet, it is sowing further division among our citizens and further distrust in our government.
So no, I will not give up on changing the tone of our politics. I know it's an election year. And after last week, it is clear that campaign fever has come even earlier than usual. But we still need to govern. To Democrats, I would remind you that we still have the largest majority in decades, and the people expect us to solve some problems, not run for the hills. And if the Republican leadership is going to insist that sixty votes in the Senate are required to do any business at all in this town, then the responsibility to govern is now yours as well. Just saying no to everything may be good short-term politics, but it's not leadership. We were sent here to serve our citizens, not our ambitions. So let's show the American people that we can do it together.
On America's foreign wars:
In Afghanistan, we are increasing our troops and training Afghan Security Forces so they can begin to take the lead in July of 2011, and our troops can begin to come home. We will reward good governance, reduce corruption, and support the rights of all Afghans - men and women alike. We are joined by allies and partners who have increased their own commitment, and who will come together tomorrow in London to reaffirm our common purpose. There will be difficult days ahead. But I am confident we will succeed.
As we take the fight to al Qaeda, we are responsibly leaving Iraq to its people. As a candidate, I promised that I would end this war, and that is what I am doing as President. We will have all of our combat troops out of Iraq by the end of this August. We will support the Iraqi government as they hold elections, and continue to partner with the Iraqi people to promote regional peace and prosperity. But make no mistake: this war is ending, and all of our troops are coming home.
On the fighting spirit:
We have finished a difficult year. We have come through a difficult decade. But a new year has come. A new decade stretches before us. We don't quit. I don't quit. Let's seize this moment - to start anew, to carry the dream forward, and to strengthen our union once more.

Published: January 27, 2013
History: Cedar Point opened as a lakeshore park in 1870. Rides were added in the early 1900's, with rapid development of the park beginning in the 1960s.
Hours: http://www.cedarpoint.com. Cedar Point is open from early May through Halloween.
Tickets: Buy and print online. Always try to buy your tickets in advance, to save time when you get to the park.
Strategy: Since wait times on the park's roller coasters can exceed two hours even on slower days, arriving before the park opens at 10 a.m. is a must. Ride some of the major rides like Top Thrill Dragster or Maverick. try not to head to Raptor right when you enter the park due to the crowds, come back mid-day for a shorter wait. Then work your way around the park to the other coasters. Cedar Point's non-coaster rides usually do not have very long waits, except on the busiest days, so you can visit those of your choosing at your convenience.
If you have young kids:
Camp Snoopy offers the park's largest collection of rides for children. In addition, county fair-style kiddie flat rides are available in the Gemini Jr. Play Area, next to Camp Snoopy, and the Kiddie Kingdom, off the Main Midway. Kids might also enjoy Planet Snoopy which was added in 2008 and features rides from Geauga Lake, located between the Main and Wicked Twister Midways - behind the Coliseum, as well as classic amusement rides like the Carousel, Railroad, Giant Wheel .
Kids of different ages will enjoy the Snoopy on Ice show near the Marina entrance and the Wildcat coaster. It's a nice cool place to escape the heat of the day.
Another method is to utilize the north entrance to the park and start from the back, working your way towards the front. The majority of guests start their day in the front of the park, and you are likely to sneak in a few quick rides in the back. By the time you get to the front, the crowd has spread out.
As a passholder for the last 12 years another way to make you way to the back in a timely fashion is to take the skyride, you can either head to millennium force or take the train to the back to hit the Maverick. This year the new coaster Gatekeeper will have everyone staying up front. So hit the back.

This photo taken Aug. 26, 2013 shows President Barack Obama speaking in the East Room of the White House in Washington. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin) by Darlene SupervilleAssocated Press WriterWASHINGTON (AP) — Barack Obama was 2 years old and growing up in Hawaii when Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his "I Have a Dream" speech from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. Fifty years later, the nation's first Black president will stand as the most high-profile example of the racial progress King espoused, delivering remarks Wednesday at a nationwide commemoration of the 1963 demonstration for jobs, economic justice and racial equality.

Plan approval of your newbuilding design is part of the basis for issuing a class certificate. Approved drawings are the basis for DNV GL newbuilding surveys.
The approval includes a thorough evaluation of all main drawings, such as scantlings, systems and installations to such an extent that the design fully complies with international mandatory requirements, Flag State requirements as well as the DNV or GL Classification Rules.
Copies of the main final approved drawings are kept at DNV GL throughout the vessel's lifetime.
Added convenience : Web-based eApproval and globe
eApproval through DNV Exchange or GL's online document exchange, globe, provide an holistic approach to electronic drawing approval by combining the communication possibilities of the web with easy reuse of electronic drawings and the quality control of a modern document management system.
With eApproval or globe, you can upload documentation for approval, have continuous access to the status of your submitted documents, and download approved documents – all at the same time and with the same tool anywhere in the world.
eApproval and globe services cover:
Newbuildings, certification of materials and components and extensive conversion projects, enabling electronic approval, i.e. the process of exchanging, reviewing and approving technical documents by electronic means
A faster, more efficient and secure exchange of documents and drawings with DNV or GL
Easy access and overview of documentation status
Less paper consumption and correspondence time, and the associated costs are significantly reduced
How eApproval and globe work
You simply access the service through a secure Web environment within DNV Exchange or GL Tools and upload electronic drawings and calculations to our servers – making them available in the respective approval centre.
At the approval centre, document control is maintained – approval engineers can add comments, stamp the drawings and return them electronically.

Yahoo fourth-quarter profit slips, revenue up
PUBLISHED: 29 Jan 2013 08:41:57 | UPDATED: 30 Jan 2013 08:46:54PRINT EDITION: 29 Jan 2013Marissa Mayer, chief executive officer of Yahoo attended the World Economic Forum Switzerland, just days before Yahoo reported revenue of $US1.35 billion in the fourth quarter, which up nearly 2 per cent year-on-year. Photo: Bloomberg
Yahoo reported net revenue of $US1.22 billion in the fourth quarter, up 4 per cent year-on-year, as an increase in search advertising revenue offset weakness in the web portal's display ad business.
Net revenue excludes fees shared with partner websites.
Yahoo shares rose 4.5 per cent to $21.22 in after hours trading on Monday.
"We got the revenue acceleration we were hoping for. Display was down, but search is doing better" said Sameet Sinha, an analyst at B. Riley Caris.
"As long as in the near-term things are not bad, I think the stock will generally act positively while we wait for Marissa Mayer to deliver," said Sinha.
The company said its fourth-quarter net income was $US272.3 million, or 23 cents per share, versus $US295.6 million, or 24 cents per share in the year-ago period.
Excluding certain items, Yahoo said it had earnings per share of 32 cents, versus the average analyst expectation of 28 cents according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Yahoo said that search revenue increased 4 per cent to $US482 million in the fourth quarter, while display advertising revenue fell by 3 per cent to $US591 million.
Chief executive Marissa Mayer is moving to revive the company's fortunes after several years of declining revenue. Yahoo's stock has risen roughly 30 per cent since she became CEO, reaching its highest levels since 2008.
Yahoo said it repurchased $US1.5 billion worth of shares during the fourth quarter.

I don't have time to give my thoughts on the issue, brain is like mush from being overworked by my office, so just have some quotes from Lecavalier and St. Louis after hearing that no suspension would be handed out to Matt Cooke.
All quotes taken from the Toronto Star or the National Post.
First up Lecavalier:
"I can't believe it. This guy's been doing that his whole career. He's been hurting a lot of guys. Take Marc Savard, he's going to be out for the rest of the season. I can't believe they're doing nothing about it. They're protecting, definitely, the wrong guy that's for sure,"
"It's time they make it black and white and not a shade of grey. That's the way it is right now and a guy like Matt Cooke is getting away with it again. That's obviously too bad."-Toronto Star
"I saw three or four times his hit, he knew exactly what he was doing when he came with his shoulder," said Lecavalier. "He knew exactly he was just gong to hit his head, that's how guys get hurt, he's got no respect for players." -National Post
"If that hit is not a suspension, I don't know what is," -Toronto Star
"I think there should be some consideration when guys are in a vulnerable position and guys are just following through with a hit like that," said St. Louis. " From the replay I thought for sure he'd get suspended but I haven't looked at all the angles they looked at."
"I mean there's certain players in this league that you tend to see them on the highlights sometimes [giving] kind of hits like that, and I don't think it was a coincidence that that hit was given by Matt Cooke, he plays ... he's a hard working player I don't want to take anything away from the way he plays the game, but I think there's times where guys are vulnerable and he still follows through." -National Post
As per Damian Cristodero of the St. Pete Times, the Lightning have announced a new aggressive season ticket sales campaign for the 2010-11 season. For people renewing their season tickets, or individuals interested in purchasing season tickets, huge savings are to be had if you lock in your commitment to the tickets by April 3, 2010.
Pricing for the new season can be found here on the Lightning website. The savings for fans purchasing season tickets before April 3rd will be at an average savings of 4.9% from the 2009-10 season. And for current season ticket holders their discount will be even greater. If you renew you will also have playoff benefits such as guaranteed tickets if the Lightning make the playoffs and save up to 15% off the face value of the tickets. There's an interesting prize for early renewals where you could win a prize to go on a road trip with the team.
no commentsIt's Monday and I've had a few links put together since there was no game tonight.
This week we're going on a roadtrip: Montreal to face the Habs tomorrow, in Toronto for the Leafs on Thursday and in Washington for the Caps (again) on Friday.
- I got sent a link from Paul who runs a website called Stadium Journey. One of their writers was in Tampa for Saturday night's game against the Thrashers and reviewed the St. Pete Times Forum. I've personally never been to watching a Lightning home game at the Forum, only seen them when they've been on the road, so it was actually kinda interesting to read what you home fans get at your rink. They say you fans are "as hockey-knowledgeable as any in the North" and the Forum ranks way higher than BankAtlantic Center where the Panther's play according to their reviews
- Interesting read from Justin Bourne on how the call-up of AHL players affect their bank roll of NHL teams. Most interesting part of it is how much the players get for their meal allowances
- Steven Stamkos was named NHL's Seconds Star of the Week after getting his 40th goal of the season and extending his point streak to 16 games. With 18 more games, how many goals do you think he's going to finish off the end of the season at?
- The Puck Daddy asks "Can Steve Downie really be part of the NHL's best line?", as hard as it is to believe it, he is. I'll give him props for being hardworking and reining in his douchebaggery this season, but he still has his moments where he loses his head
- Lecavalier talks about the hit from Cooke on Savard to Cristodero, yes that's the same Cooke that ended Lecavalier's season with a hit that dislocated his shoulder
Actually I'm a week late with this post, but since this is what happened last Sunday on this blog's actual birthday:
I think it's understandable that I didn't want to write a post about my blog's first anniversary when there was clearly bigger things happening, like Canada winning GOLD!
Once year ago, after many weeks of thought, I decided to begin blogging. After overwhelming and perhaps annoying my friends and family with my talk about hockey, I decided to channel my desire to talk about the sport through a blog. To read about the reason I started blogging you can read it at a contribution I did for CLS' Odd Woman Rush. Instead of being logical and starting just one blog, I started two: Vancity Canuck and The Hockey Bay. I figured that it would be fun and that if I hated it, I could just quit after a few posts. I didn't really care or have any expectations that anyone would actually read what I wrote.
After twelve months of writing and 487 posts later (between the two blogs), a lot of things have changed. The most obvious is that I have moved from my old home on blogspot over to join the Bloguin family here, moving both of my blogs over to the network. The Hockey Bay retained the same name, whereas Vancity Canuck got renamed Benched Whale.
One of the great things about being a hockey blogger is getting to know other bloggers through which, I have also been able to write at such fab sites like Cycle Like the Sedins, Raw Charge and most recently as a writer for the Olympic Hockey Blog.
And the most important, is that I got readers! Yes readers, and sometimes even commenters, which proves that it's more than just my brother (and Sharks fan) reading what I'm writing. I'm sure my writing quality has gotten better over time, which you, dear reader, I'm sure is grateful for.
That's right, Steven Stamkos scored two goals tonight to get his 40th goal of the season. He also has 36 assists, giving him 76 points in the season so far with still 18 games to go in the season. Niittymaki scored yet again another win over the Atlanta Thrashers which makes him 17-0-0 over the Thrashers, and most importantly, the Lightning walked away with two points. Stamkos' first goal broke a 1-1 tie in the first period on the powerplay, and Paul need-another-freakin-vowel Szczechura put in his 3rd of year to make it 3-1.
The second period, Colby Armstrong tried to mount a comeback with a goal, but on a werid slashing penatly from Afinogenov (awarded by Kerry Fraser of course), Purcell was awarded a penalty shot which he got past Hedberg for his first as a Lightning.
The third period, which included Downie being an asshat and St. Louis getting injured after the jump
no commentsTwo losses in a row since coming back from the Olympic break, 5 game losing streak. Huge game tonight. HUGE
Enemy Blog: Check out Thrashing the Blues
Line-up Notes:
- Niitymaki to start
- David Hale is out with a lower body injury on injured reserve
- Matt Walker has a lower body injury, day-to-day
no comments
The Lightning are holding a special Lightning "Unplugged" event on Friday, March 5th from 5-7pm. Instead of having two players of the Lightning, today the Lightning will feature new owner Jeff Vinik and Steven Stamkos in a Q&A session that is open to the public. It will take place on a stage set up in the lower bowl of the St. Pete Times forum.
For full details visit the Lightning website here for the info. There's also an open skate for season ticket holders and a locker room tour.

Some great news, the latest version of the Silverlight Toolkit (November 08) has been made available to download on CodePlex. This release includes a host of new controls for Silverlight including TreeView, AutoCompleteBox, DockPanel and one I've been eagerly awaiting - WrapPanel.
Once you've downloaded the toolkit you'll probably want to add the controls to the Visual Studio toolbox. This can be achieved by the following steps:
(Note: I'm doing this on an installation of Visual Studio 2008 SP1 with the latest Silverlight Tools RTW installed)- Extract the Toolkit zip file to a location on your computer
- Open up a Silverlight project in Visual Studio 2008 SP1
- Open up a XAML file and ensure that the Visual Studio toolbox is visible (if not it can be turned on via View > Toolbox or Ctrl+Alt+X)
- Right click on one of the toolbox headings and select Choose Items... (Note: The dialog took quite a while to load up on my machine)
- From the Choose Toolbox Items dialog, click on the Silverlight Components tab and then click Browse. Navigate to the folder where you extracted the Silverlight Toolkit and open the Binaries folder and select one of the assemblies and click Open. In this example I selected Microsoft.Windows.Controls.dll. Then on the Choose Toolbox Items dialog you should see that new controls have been added to the list and preselected (AutoCompleteBox, DockPanel etc.)
- Click OK and you should then see the new controls available in the toolbox.
- Repeat these steps for the other assemblies included with the Toolkit and you're good to go :)

Sharepoint 2007 task notification alert emails not working
"Where are my alert emails!" I hear you cry. I've been repeating these same words for a number of days now and I've finally managed to get them working so I thought I'd share my solution.
I've been working with a MOSS site which has three environments; development, staging and live. We have a number of custom workflows which were created using Workflow Foundation and InfoPath for the forms. Each of the workflow tasks should automatically send out a task notification email whenever the task is reassigned to a different person. This has always worked fine on staging and live environments, but I've never seen them working in the development environment. Interestingly all the standard scheduled alert emails were working fine (ie. if you were to subscribe to a list), it was just the task notifications from the workflows which were not.Solution:
First thing I did was go through the usual process of checking the log files and windows event viewer for errors which yielded no significant results. Next thing I checked were the email settings for the site in Central Admin which again all looked fine. The development site is using local SMTP, so I checked if the emails were getting generated in the 'DROP' folder in the mailroot. The scheduled alert emails were getting generated in here fine, but the task notifications were not. I also checked that the Timer service was running correctly and under the right account in the windows Services, which it was.Next thing I checked were the database tables, after I read about the same problem in this newsgroup posting. The following four tables in the content database contain entries related to the alert emails:
ImmedSubscriptions (Stores the alerts for emails that are sent immediately when changes occur)
SchedSubscriptions (Stores daily or weekly scheduled alerts)
EventLog (This table contains events for which only non-immediate alerts exist)
EventCache (This table contains a list of site events for which users have requested alerts. WSS inserts events into this table as they occur)I checked in these table to see if information about the alerts were being inserted and discovered that in the ImmedSubscriptions and EventLog tables there were actually entries which were related to the live server, as I believe the content database had been restored from a live copy a while ago, and the references obviously had not been updated automatically. So I cleared out each each one of these tables and re-tested the workflow. This made a bit of progress as I could now see that the alert information was getting inserted correctly into the EventCache and EventLog tables. However the ImmedSubscriptions table was still not receiving information about the alert.
After some frustrated iisresets and restarts of the timer job service, I was still having no luck whatsoever at getting these alert emails working so I reverted back to trusty Google for some more answers. I found this blog, which although not directly related, provided the winning answer. Updating the alert templates. After running the following stsadm command on the development machine, the task notification alert emails automagically started working again woohoo!
stsadm -o updatealerttemplates -url http://testserver -f "c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\XML\alerttemplates.xml" -LCID 2057So I can assume that the problem transpired from a restore of the content databased from a different server which somewhere along the line maintained some references to the original server. A clear out of the relevant databases and re-registering the alert templates seemed to solve the problem for me.
Hopefully this comes in handy for somebody else, as I spent many a frustrated hour over this one :)
Hello World!
This is the first post to my newly created weblog hosted at www.asp.net (many thanks to Joe Stagner for setting this up for me), which I'm migrating from my existing site www.multividea.com. So I'll start with an introduction; I'm Mel, I've been working with various Microsoft web technologies over the years including classic ASP, ASP.NET and have most recently started working with Sharepoint 2007 and Windows Sharepoint Services. I mostly make posts to share problems and solutions I encounter whilst working on projects for my current employer.
I also recently got inspired to start getting stuck in with some SilverLight 1.0 after attending Microsoft Mix: UK 07 and listening to various seminars by Scott Guthrie, so this is also something I would like to start blogging about regularly as I get further into it.
So thanks for reading, hopefully you will find this site a valuable resource and I'm happy to answer any comments on the upcoming posts.

Hunting may not be the tool wildlife managers hoped for to keep black bears from burgling garages and garbage.
Extensive studies in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Ontario found that more liberal bear hunting seasons could get more bears killed, but couldn't weed out nuisance bears selectively.
In fact, hunting had almost no effect on the number of bear complaints homeowners phoned to game wardens.
On a related note, many of the 300 bear experts at the Fourth International Human-Bear Conflicts Workshop in Missoula this week agreed that using phone calls to gauge bear trouble was a lousy measuring stick.
"In Wisconsin, there are no bear conflicts on weekends" — when there's no staff to answer the phone, said Zach Voyles of the University of Wisconsin. He added if game wardens stopped answering weekday calls at 3 p.m., they'd see another dramatic drop in their workload.
"We actually found when we took more bears (through hunting), we got more complaints," Voyles said. "We also found no evidence to show that hunting helps reduce conflicts. In some counties, the opposite almost appears to be true."
Mark Ternent of the Pennsylvania Game Commission recounted that state's extensive efforts to monitor the black bear population. Its wardens trap and study hundreds of bears annually, resulting in a powerful database of bear identities that's linked to records of bear conflicts.
Pennsylvania has about 18,000 bears, 116,000 bear hunters and usually a three-day hunting season just before Thanksgiving. Its deer season runs two weeks after Thanksgiving, and attracts 900,000 hunters.
Ternent said deer hunters tend to work closer to residential areas than bear hunters do.
So on some years, game managers overlapped the bear and deer seasons, hoping that deer hunters might opportunistically take nuisance bears hanging around homes and birdfeeders.
"We found nuisance bears got killed equally as often as non-conflict bears," Ternent said. "When we'd reached a 50 percent reduction in the population, the public started telling us that's far enough. And the number of complaints (about bear break-ins) didn't correlate to anything. When the population dropped 50 percent, the complaints actually rose."
One thing the study indicated was that bears who cause trouble around homes in the summer tend to move into less settled areas in the fall. The hunters couldn't tell nuisance bears from good bears, and so took more of both.
Zach Turnbull of the Wyoming Game and Fish Department said wardens there have a different tactic that works with some success.
When they investigate a bear conflict incident, the wardens encourage the landowner to informally spread the word that a problem bear is in the area.
Word-of-mouth recommendations often draw licensed hunters and increase the chance the unwanted bear will be killed.
"Using hunters to resolve bear conflicts has been a small part of our strategy, but one with high success," Turnbull said.
But Wyoming also offers two bear hunting seasons a year covering nearly five months of opportunity. Wisconsin allows roughly one month to hunt black bears.

noun \ˈher-əl-drē, ˈhe-rəl-\: the activity of creating or studying coats of arms and of tracing and recording family histories
Full Definition of HERALDRY
First Known Use of HERALDRY
noun (Concise Encyclopedia)Art and science of devising, displaying, and granting armorial insignia and of tracing and recording genealogies. The use of heraldic symbols as a means of identification spread throughout the European nobility in the 13th century. The principal vehicle for displaying the heraldic devices is the shield; in the full armorial achievement, the shield is augmented by the helmet, crest, mantling, crown, wreath, motto, compartment (base), and supporters. Arms are hereditary; all male descendants of the first person to whom they were granted bear the arms. As insignia of honour, they are protected by law in the European monarchies, Ireland, Switzerland, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. See also coat of arms; ecclesiastical heraldry.

The day will come when, after harnessing space, the winds, the tides, and gravitation, we shall harness for God the energies of love.
And on that day, for the second time in the history of the world, we shall have discovered fire.
Teilhard de Chardin
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. Quote selected by Ilia Delio from Science and Christ. Delio, Ilia, Editor. From Teilhard to Omega Co-Creating an Unfinished Universe, New York: Orbis Books, 2014.
"Fundamentalism, whether it appears as creationism or scientism, misses the mark...and holds the mind captive..." Kathleen Duffy, SSJ
"Fundamentalism, whether it appears as creationism or scientism, misses the mark. It holds the mind captive rather than letting it soar. Teilhard was one of the first to provide a viable alternative. Reading the Word as metaphor allowed him deeper insight into the heart of a God who loves without bound; seeing the cosmos as a place of ongoing creation allowed him deeper insight into the mind of a God who is unknowable."

Introduction Rediscovering Teilhard's Fire Kathleen Duffy, SSJ, Editor
"Evolution is God coming to be at the heart of the cosmos."
Ilia Delio, From Teilhard to Omega-Co-creating an Unfinished Universe.
The Chardin Project
"The time is right to introduce a new generation to Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, the early 20th-century paleontologist, evolutionist, and visionary Jesuit priest, who never ceased to pursue the ultimate meaning of life while confronting the scientific wonder of an emerging universe.
"Teilhard's dramatic personal story invites fresh perspectives on issues of science and religion that continue to create rancorous rifts in our society. Teilhard's unique synthesis of his science and his faith is perhaps even more relevant today than it was when he died in 1955.
Frank Frost Productions presents "a public education project about the interaction between science and religion" in this thought provoking site:

...widening our sense of what is possible....
The world has the enduring character of not-yet-being. Our awareness of the "not-yet" at the level of human history leads us to invest our hopes in dreams of ideal social orders. But because our sketches of a future for humanity and the cosmos are usually too small and insufficiently inclusive...
The Cosmic Christ
Richard Rohr gives a profound insight into the nature of the historical Jesus and what the resurrected Christ really means.

"The Mass on the World"
Everything that we can make out in the cosmic past with the help of science suggests that the universe is habitually open to further increase in being and value….Theologically speaking, in other words,the universe is still being created and the [Cosmic] Christ is still in the process of formation. Every Eucharistic celebration is a declaration that 'what is really going on' even now is that Christ continues to gather us—our labors, joys, and diminishments—along with the entire cosmos into his own body.
"The Mass on the World" in Christianity and Science. Toward a Theology of Nature by John Haught
Broad Enough and Deep Enough
The spirituality of Teilhard de Chardin is a gift of grace for today - broad enough to incorporate cosmic and biological evolution and deep enough to provide access to the very atmosphere of God.
Savary opens for us the thought of Teilhard
May 1, 1881 - April 10, 1955
We may, perhaps, imagine that Creation was finished long ago. But that would be quite wrong. It continues in still more magnificent form in the highest zones of the world...Our role is to help complete it, if only by the humble work of our hands.
Jesus and "The Christ" Are Not Exactly the Same
Jesus is the microcosm; Christ is the macrocosm. There is a movement from Jesus to the Christ that you and I imitate and walk, as well.
The Cosmic Context of our Lives
Teilhard would wonder how many of us consistently take into account in our thoughts about God and Christ the cosmic context of our lives. Doing so would in no way entail the forsaking of time-tested religious doctrines or virtues such as humility, gratitude, moderation, justice and love. Rather these would now have fresh meaning. Read more...
Theologically speaking, what is really going on in evolution is that God is becoming increasingly incarnate in the world...and the world is exploding "upward into God." (Teilhard, Future of Man, 83)
Beneath the surface of what science has discovered, there is the eternal drama of God's descent and promise.

From Ilia Delio
As we look toward a New Year, I would like to declare 2015 the Year of Love. I do not mean love as sentiment or emotion but love as the highest good, the deep relationality of being itself.
For so long we have kept love outside the limits of nature, as if it is a peculiarly human emotion that we develop. Hard core scientists and ivory tower intellectuals are easily annoyed by love-talk, as if their precious time is being wasted with sentimental silliness. Yet, apart from love we are not at home in the cosmos – literally... learn more.

Cost Segregation Studies
A cost segregation study is a process of identifying personal property assets that would typically be depreciated over 39 years as part of a building and reclassifying these assets into class lives of five, seven or 15 years. Having a cost segregation study allows for accelerated depreciation expense and a reduction of taxable income.
Recent IRS procedures allow owners of commercial real estate to go back in time to "catch up" depreciation deductions that were warranted, but not taken, in previously filed tax returns. The procedure offers you the opportunity to file using this catch up amount without amending previous years' returns. The immediate correction or catch up can go back as far as 1987 and is applied to a single (current) tax year as an acceleration of depreciation expense. This means you can enjoy tax deductions right now that you'd otherwise have to wait years to receive.
A cost segregation study is recommended if you are:
- Building a new facility
- Acquiring an existing building
- Improving, renovating or expanding an existing building
- Conducting leasehold improvements on your current facility
Cost segregation studies are beneficial especially for:
- Apartment complexes
- Automobile dealerships
- Distribution centers
- Fast food restaurants
- Food processing facilities
- Hotels/motels
- Manufacturing plants
- Medical centers
- Nursing homes
- Office buildings
- Retail chains
- Shopping malls
- Sports stadiums
- Supermarkets

The East Meadow Little League, East Meadow Girls Softball, and East Meadow Senior League are under charter by Little League Baseball Incorporated for their annual Spring Season and is an all volunteer organization for the benefit of the children who live within our boundaries as defined by Little League Baseball. We serve the East Meadow communities between North Jerusalem Road (on the South) and Hempstead Turnpike (on the North) and between the Wantagh Parkway (on the East) and the Meadowbrook Parkway (on the West). We also serve the small area between Carmen Avenue (on the East) and Eisenhower Park (on the North and West).
The Association consists of five individual leagues with a common goal, to provide a quality program for the youth of our community. The Mini League serves boys ages five and six and teaches the basic fundamentals of baseball. Our Boys Baseball program serves boys ages 7 through 12 and builds on the fundamentals learned in our Mini League as well as fostering a love for the game and promoting good sportsmanship. The Senior League serves boys ages 13 through 16 keeps the competition going. Our Girls Softball League serves girls ages 5 through 16 with several "divisions" much like the individual leagues for the boys, teach the girls the basic fundamentals, good sportsmanship, and a love for the game. Last but not least, our Challenger Division, with Lee Cook at the helm of an amazing crew of volunteers, provides an extraordinary program for special needs children in our community. The main success in the Challenger Division is its ability to bring out the best in its players and volunteers including players from the other leagues who often volunteer as "buddies" to assist the players in the Division.
Each league (with the exception of the Challengers Division) elects it own President, Vice President and several Board Members. Each of these Board Members and Presidents comprise the Board of Directors, with the addition of several At Large Directors, Life Directors and Commissioner and Vice Commissioner.
Our Association is strictly a volunteer organization and its success is due in large part to the time and effort of those volunteers.
Each League holds it own monthly meetings, all are welcome (and encouraged) to attend to hear what's going on it each league, and voice any concerns. A friend once said to me "What right do you have to complain about how things are being done if you are not volunteering to help get things done?" That being said, below is a listing of the regularly scheduled meeting dates for each league.
Challenger Division - 1st Wednesday of each month
Mini League - 2nd Monday of each month
Senior League - 2nd Tuesday of each month
Little League - 2nd Wednesday of each month
Girls Softball - 2nd Thursday of each month
All meetings are held in our Board Room on the complex which is onMerrick Avenue just south of Hempstead Turnpike

Sex, lies, video push woman to sue husband
-A A +AMonday, June 11, 2012
CEBU CITY -- A love poem written by a woman for her husband.
A sex video of her husband with another woman.
A cell phone containing intimate messages between her husband and the latter's alleged girlfriend.
A picture of her husband's other woman and a pack of condoms.
These things discovered by Lea (real name withheld) last year pushed her to file a complaint against her husband for violating Republic Act 9262, or the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act of 2004.
"My discovery of (my husband's) infidelities came as a deep emotional stress that choked me up. It disturbed me in my sleep, in my meals and in my daily activities," said Lea in her affidavit.
Recently, the Cebu City Prosecutor's Office has recommended the filing of RA 9262 against Lea's husband in court.
"The overwhelming allegations of the complainant regarding the psychological abuse and economic abuse committed by the (husband) to her and to her children are enough bases to establish that the respondent committed the crime charged," said Prosecutor Naruzen Delfin-Orete in the resolution.
Psychological violence, which includes humiliation, verbal abuse and infidelity, are punishable under RA 9262. Under this law, a woman or child may ask the court for relief from any act that causes "mental or emoptional suffering." Denial of financial support is one possible offense.
But the same law, enacted in March 2004, also states the victim has only 10 years after an act of mental anguish to complain about it to the authorities. Otherwise, the act will prescribe and the victim loses her right to bring the supposed offender to court.
In another case, 17-year-old Marie (not her real name) suffered verbal and physical abuse from her aunt after she reported to her uncle that the latter had an affair with another man.
With this, the Cebu City Prosecutor's Office recommended the filing of Republic Act 7610, or the Special Protection of Children Against Abuse, Exploitation and Discrimination Act, against Marie's aunt.
After the aunt learned what Marie had told her husband, the former allegedly became abusive towards the girl. The girl arrived in Cebu City last year to work as a helper in her aunt's household and in hopes to continue her studies.
The aunt told Marie that she could continue staying in their house if she took back what she said to her husband, but the latter refused.
"I suffered in silence," said Marie in her affidavit. (Sun.Star Cebu)

They threw up a thread on cardgamedb the night before. A few people already posted that they would have gone if there would have been any sort of advertising. I just chalk it up to them being okies.

Posted 14 December 2012 - 11:21 AM
This one developed on a pretty short time frame, so it wasn't as publicized as we'd like them to be. I know that Greg is hammering out a schedule all the way out through our Regional in the late May/ early June window, so I'm hoping that we can have a pretty forward looking and advanced schedule set up here pretty soon.
Posted 14 December 2012 - 06:44 PM
We are putting the schedule together through August at this point. This December event happed within 10 or so days of it being an idea. Pretty great start with 23 players from 3 states.
Do or do not, there is no try.

blizzard shimmer
Fantastic top, great length and I love the relaxed fit. The v isn't super low and the shimmer adds a nice change to the normal tank. I suggest sizing down in this top because the arm pits sag. I am a fan of quicksilver women's products but they tend to run a little large. Also the dogfunk photo is off, the tank top is a lot darker in person than what is pictured above. I have attached a photo from quiksilver.

Photos: Ten funniest Best of Denver awards from 2012
As you know, we're currently gearing up for our annual Best of Denver issue, which will hit streets and computer terminals near you next week. How best to get you geared up for our latest opus? By sharing the funniest award-winners from 2012. Who has Denver International Airport penis envy -- and what's Stephen Colbert have to do with it? Who should Peyton Manning have hired as a babysitter? And what's the funniest roller-derby nickname? The answers, and the laughs, are below. Check them out -- and be sure to check back next week for an all-new batch of bests.
Best Roller Derby Nickname -- 2012: Boo Boo RadleyPhoto by Dave Wood
Roller derby names have the dual requirement of striking fear in the hearts of lesser opponents while making them giggle. Boo Boo Radley, aka Deirdre Sage of the Denver Roller Dolls, accomplishes both -- and manages a To Kill a Mockingbird reference, to boot.
Best TV Commercial -- 2012: "The Least Interesting Man in the World"
"I always drink beer, and when I do, I prefer good beer," says the bottling-plant employee whose name tag reads "Bob" and who holds up a bottle of Breckenridge brew. The anti-big-beer-company beer commercial, produced by Breckenridge Brewery, managed to not only take stabs at the big boys, but spoof Dos Equis's "Most interesting man in the world" commercial as well. The spot -- all part of a "Truth in Beervertising" campaign -- ran on Super Bowl Sunday, although not during the game, and just locally on Fox 31. Still, it was plenty crafty.

April 2010
In today's sports world,
people can easily become obsessed with individual statistics and glamorous
superstars. With fantasy leagues, video
games and constant ESPN SportsCenter
highlights bombarding our consciousness, rarely do we pause to ponder why some
All-Star laden teams miss the playoffs while other clubs lacking those
high-voltage stars are surprise contenders.
As we jet to St. Petersburg today for the
start of a six-game road trip, the first-place Oakland A's are a prime example of how
chemistry can transform a group of athletes into a unified force.
In short, what I've observed over the past
several weeks is a collection of blue-collar players–or is that Green Collar?–who are fast becoming a
real team. That team evolution can manifest itself
in many subtle or not-so-subtle ways.
Maybe it starts with Ben Sheets
instilling a unique comradeship with his new teammates, not to mention a loose,
fun atmosphere in the clubhouse. Still
seeking his first victory as an Athletic, Big Ben arrived at the Coliseum the
other day wearing Warriors' NBA gear head to toe and toting a new Nurfball basketball rim and ball set. Before long, the A's clubhouse was filled
with blaring music, raucous laughter and a frat house vibe warmly reminiscent
of earlier days in Oakland.
Or maybe we started to
become a real team when Dallas Braden confronted A-Rod the
other day when the Yankee slugger jogged across his mound. While Dallas expressed his
feelings to Rodriguez in no uncertain terms, his message also reverberated
throughout the A's clubhouse. Mr. 209
was, perhaps, sending a message not only to Mr. Tabloid but also letting his
teammates know the 2010 Oakland A's will not be subservient to anyone. It almost reminded me of the Jim Harbaugh incident at Stanford when he took over the football
coaching reins there. People scoffed
when Harbaugh, in reference to Pete Carroll
of perennial Pac-10 champion USC, said that Stanford would "bow to no
man!" In a different way, I remember hearing
the same thing from a former baseball GM I once worked for. "Rosey," he said, "somebody's got to
win. We're good guys, so why not us?"
Other signs of "we" over
"me" this year? How about the weekly
sight of team barber Rajai Davis, wielding electric
clippers in the clubhouse rest room, cutting his buddies' hair, but maybe more
importantly, engaging in small talk that brings teammates closer together. Or Kevin Kouzzzzzzzzzzmanoff, another new kid on the block, returning to the lineup
yesterday despite a gimpy ankle and sore calf that probably needed more rest. Clearly, he saw how our lineup looked
the previous day, and he knew the club needed his bat in the middle of the
lineup. The A's new third baseman sucked
it up, played with some discomfort and absolutely was a catalyst in us winning
the rubber match of the Indians' series.
And you don't think his new teammates noticed what a gamer Kouz was in
taking one for the team? Same could be
said for Kurt Suzuki, who belted his third
homer in four days last Friday despite a stiff back, or Daric Barton, who refused to come out of the lineup last week
even though his right elbow was swollen almost twice the size of his left one,
and then proceeded to ignite key rallies in Oakland wins.
And if not Barton or
Kouzmanoff providing heroics, then it's Gio or the Duke. As the old
axiom goes, it's seemingly been a different hero every game. And with that, the 2010 A's are truly becoming
a greater team than the sum of its parts.
Whether they can continue to play baseball at a .600 clip and reside on
the AL West's top rung remains to be seen.
But if they do, you can bet I'll be spewing plenty more clichés about
this group. They're playing like a team.
What a concept!
this week, the Oakland A's will join the rest of Major League Baseball in
paying tribute to one of America's great civil rights pioneers. On April 15, every team in baseball will
honor Jackie
Robinson by wearing his familiar No. 42
on their game jerseys. Here in Oakland, the A's will
welcome nearly 500 Bay Area elementary and middle school students, teachers and
parents as their guests at the game for their recent participation in the
Jackie Robinson "Breaking Barriers Essay Contest," which was co-sponsored by
Major League Baseball. Through this
essay contest, it is our hope that these youngsters will learn why Jackie is
such an important figure in our country's history and also that they, too, can
overcome barriers.
Jackie became the first African American to break the color barrier in baseball
in 1947, consider this: Martin Luther King, Jr. was only 18 years old at the time, almost ten years before he would lead the
Montgomery Bus Boycott, and 16 years
before he would deliver his famous "I Have A Dream" speech during the March on
Washington in 1963. Without question,
Dr. King met tremendous resistance during his fight for civil rights. But can you imagine the climate in this
country when Jackie Robinson first suited up as a Brooklyn Dodger?
By Commissioner Selig mandating that every club retire Jackie's number
back in 1997, it absolutely sent the right message to everyone involved in the
game. Jackie's story needed to be heard
then and it continues to be as pertinent today as it was more than a half
century ago. It heartens us to see youngsters
like eighth grader Rosario Abonce of Rancho Medanos
Junior High School in Pittsburg
and fourth grader Monica Martinez of Tara Hills Elementary School in San Pablo write in their essays about how his
courage and determination inspired them as well.
also inspired other minority ball players that would follow him, including the
many African American and Latin superstars of the 1960's–Willie Mays, Hank
Aaron, Roberto Clemente, Orlando Cepeda, Frank Robinson, among others–who rewrote the baseball history books
with their marvelous skills and accomplishments. Sports have always served as an agent for
social change, as performance has no color.
The diversity of athletes, whether it is race, religion, national origin
or economic status, has served this country well in teaching tolerance,
understanding and teamwork.
Robinson led the way in professional sports.
So, when you think of our team's rich heritage here in Oakland, also remember that Jackie made it
possible for the likes of Blue Moon, Vida, Reggie, Rickey and Stew and many
other great players of color to enjoy remarkable careers with the Athletics through
years. We all owe a debt of gratitude to
No. 42.
One of the real rewards of
this job is watching young players live out their childhood dreams. For Tyson Ross, many
of his dreams were realized this week. I
first met Tyson during the summer of 2008.
The 6-6, 225-pound right-hander had been selected by the A's in the
second round of that year's draft and was subsequently signed to a minor league
contract. He was paying a visit to the
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum before reporting to single-A Kane County. Of course, it wasn't the first time he had
stepped foot inside the Coliseum, having grown up in Oakland
and attended both Bishop O'Dowd High School
and Cal.
that sunny afternoon in 2008, he and his parents, Willie and Jean, were all
smiles in the A's dugout. Clearly, it
was a dream come true for Tyson to sign a professional contract with his
childhood team, the Oakland
A's. Little did he and his family realize
but 21 months later, he would live a much bigger dream: wearing a Major League uniform as part of the
A's 2010 Opening Day roster. I still can
see that look on his face–a mix between euphoria and disbelief–when he was
informed by the A's brass in Bob Geren's
office after the final Bay Bridge Series exhibition game that he had, indeed,
made the 25-man roster.
he returned to his locker, where a group of media were milling around. Beyond the ear-to-ear smile, Tyson could only
manage three words at first: "I made
it!" For many of the writers who had
covered him in spring training, I think they also enjoyed the news. Not only because it was a great
local-boy-made-good story, but they–like I–had witnessed what a fine young man
Tyson is. His warm smile, humble
demeanor and cooperative nature had made him one of the clubhouse favorites in Arizona. In fact, after doing a Comcast satellite
talk-back interview for Chronicle Live
from his spring apartment in Tempe
a few weeks ago, I received an almost unprecedented phone call from the Comcast
truck technician. He called me just to
let me know how cooperative and kind Tyson had been with him. That type of call is unheard of in my
meeting with the media, Tyson came into (equipment manager) Steve Vucinich's office. He
asked Vuc if it would be okay for him to call his family to let them know he
made the team. I was privileged to be
standing in Vuc's office when he made the call.
It was really a tender moment, hearing the excitement in his voice as he
told the most important people in his life–those who had driven him to summer
league games, iced his arm after games, helped him stay focused on his
academics at O'Dowd and Cal, in other words, those who loved him since birth
and had always been there for him–that he had made The Show. Since
that night, it's been a whirlwind for Tyson.
The local media continued to flock to him after Opening Night. Comcast's
Longworth did a clever little feature on
"The Passing of the Ball Bag," interviewing Andrew Bailey as he literally handed Tyson the pitcher's
ball bag–a chore reserved for the incoming rookie as part of a time-honored
tradition in baseball. But the flurry of
media attention had just started for Oakland's
Game 3 of the Mariners' series, Ross was
summoned from the bullpen with two outs in the sixth inning in relief of
starter Justin Duchscherer. A's public address announcer Dick Callahan pronounced his entrance: "Now pitching for the A's….making his Major
League debut….number 66….Tyson Ross!" From
the press box, I swear I could see Tyson's heart pounding. But despite being amped up–he forgot to hold
on Franklin
Gutierrez at first base, which resulted
in a stolen base on his first pitch–Ross soon settled into the game. His 95 MPH fastball and nasty slider was no
match for Rob Johnson, who will now always
be remembered as Tyson's first Major League strikeout. Ross mowed down the Mariners again in the
seventh inning. Then in the eighth, he
faced immortality with Ken Griffey, Jr. at the plate. When Kurt Suzuki almost hung on to Junior's two-strike foul tip, I
could only imagine the reaction in the stands by the Ross Family. In unison, they probably all jumped out of
their seats. However, Tyson soon added
the exclamation point to his maiden Major League appearance. He came back to ring up the future Hall of
Famer and completed two-and-one-third scoreless innings in playing a key role
in Oakland's 6-5 victory over Seattle.
was a storybook night for the kid who once played youth baseball games at the
Bushrod baseball fields on the other side of San Leandro Blvd., literally in the
shadow of the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum.
It's happened so quickly for Tyson Ross, you really can't blame him if
he's not quite sure what's real and what's a dream these days. In either case, it's a safe bet he's in no
hurry to wake up. After all, he's having
the time of his life.

Food Channel's top ten dessert trends for 2011: two out of ten ain't bad
If you hear it from the Food Channel, then it must be true. This crew's latest list -- of top-ten dessert trends -- includes mass wedding cake genocide, tableside theatrics, Cinnamon Twists from Taco Bell, beer paired with doughnuts, two-fisting nuts (and yes, "two-fisting" is being used as a verb here), cupcakes as nosferatu, an epitaph on how people are maybe greedy bastards or maybe not -- with exactly two accurate, useful trends out of ten.
I suppose that's better than none. Here's what the Food Channel is serving up now, and my response:
10. Dessert Theatrics.Do we really gotta make this bougie?
Food Channel says: "We've had the tableside prep of the Caesar salad and the fresh guacamole. It's only natural that this has started to creep across the menu. It began with tableside s'mores, and Brennan's in New Orleans is renowned for its tableside Bananas Foster. Now we're seeing egg creams prepared tableside at Eleven Madison Park in New York."
I'm saying: The Caesar salad and tableside guacamole were real hits in the Harding and Reagan eras, respectively, and getting a salad tossed right in front of you was probably just as exciting as the Teapot Dome scandal, while having your avocados squished before your eyes must have been as thrilling as trickle-down economics. If living in the now means that the simple, Brooklyn-born egg cream with a total of three ingredients has become something that costs more than a couple of bucks and is being served from a Tiffany & Company decanter, then the Obama era is shaping up to have the housing market stabilize and the bougie bubble burst.

Fire Prevention Week has just passed and I hope everyone took a moment to consider fire safety in their home. It seems like an easy thing to put off but its importance should not be overlooked. This year's theme is "Know Two Ways Out," meaning be able to escape your room/home through more than one exit path. It's a fairly intuitive thing. I think we all know how to use the front or back door of the house. Most people will easily detour to the back door if the front is blocked by fire or vice versa. A bedroom may be a little different since you don't often climb out the window. But if you believe that is your only way to escape, it's certainly a better way out if you've had some practice using it. So practice!
Climbing out a window is not as easy as it seems. The opening may not be as easy to get your big ol' adult body through as you might remember as a kid. But here's some good news, protecting in place, right in the bedroom, can work very well. By closing the bedroom door and going to the window to yell for help (or calling for help on your home or cell phone), you may easily survive for up to 15 minutes. This all depends, of course, on the nature of the fire and where it may be burning, but most often this is the case.
Of course any successful escape begins with a working smoke alarm. Don't be confused by the discussions about different sensing technologies. No studies or information from actual fire cases has yet to determine one smoke alarm being more effective than the other. Experts across the nation say that having a working smoke alarm is the answer, and it MUST work. This will give you the early warning you need to get out before fire traps you or forces the use of a secondary exit.
Once out, go to your safe meeting place. This should be in front of your home right where arriving firefighters will easily find you. Do not go to a neighbors house, do not go across the street, do not go to the back yard. Firefighters will not find you in those places so they will not know you escaped the home. Neighbors are where you send one person to ensure that 911 was called while everyone else remains at the safe meeting place.
When you choose that place, go outside with your family and see it, touch it, and say "this is our safe meeting place." Everyone will remember better if you do these things.
That's all it takes folks. Pretty simple stuff. Most people don't know the devastation fire can cause, not just to your home or property, but to your well being. Even I didn't realize it, until about 7 weeks ago. That's when my home suffered a devastating fire. Fortunately, my fire occurred in a shop located about 100 feet from my house. While I was out of town on vacation, my son, who was home at the time, acted rationally and did not do anything heroic. The end result was a total loss of a building, but all things that could be recovered….because we were insured.
Take a moment to consider your fire safety, just in case you missed it last week. You may save a life and that life may be yours. Think Safe!

So me and my husband tried cooking the salmon steaks last night but it would not cook? We set the oven to 350 and cooked the steaks for 20 mins, then 40, and finally we gave up. It would not cook. When we opened the aluminum foil and smelt the fish it made us gag from the smell. What did I do wrong? I admit i'm an amatuer cook but seriously? The recipe looks so easy! I seriously need your advise as to where I went wrong. Thank you in advance!- Melanie Cross

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 Titus!
Facts about Titus
- Breed: Pit Bull Terrier
- Color: Brindle - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Male
Titus's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, purebred, in need of an experienced adopter, up to date with shots, good with kids, not good with dogs, and good with cats.
Titus is a devoted, loving Pitbull who can no longer stay with his family. He especially likes girls and women...a little leary of men, but does warm up quickly. He is not good with other dogs. If you are looking for a protective, yet loving companion, Titus may be the dog for you. Pitbull experience recommended. Titus is great with the kids, but with all dogs, supervision is essential.
Other Pets at Becky's Best Buddies
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Titus, a Chewelah Pit Bull Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Pit Bull Terrier for sale in Chewelah, or seeking a Pit Bull Terrier dog from a breeder in Chewelah.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Chewelah 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 Chewelah 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 Pit Bull Terrier breeders who help with Pit Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Chewelah paves the way for another one to be saved.

I am looking for a nice "starter set" type of thing for my soon to be toddling granddaughter: matching bowl, cup, and plate. I do not want plastic. Can anyone recommend an on-line store that might have such a thing? I cannot find anything locally. Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
That is a tough one. If it is for real daily use, I would rather have plastic. My DD has several great melamine sets that she has used since she was in a high-chair and even after dishwasher, they look like new. If it is to be a tea set or something that is for looks and for play when she's older, then I would be ok with porcelain, but you said she is pre-toddler, so that's a tough call. Try Lillian Vernon. From time to time she has good porcelain child's dishes. Another good company is Sensational Beginnings. This is melamine, but I think it is too cute! |
Some Corning ware outlets have sets also, as do some major department stores. Corning ware does have an email site. Marie |
Fiesta Ware has wonderful children's sets...from toddler to small tea sets with cups, saucers, etc. And..this might start her on a path to collecting these dishes in her adult life. That is what "I" am doing with my granddaughters. I got a Toddler Set for my grandson also...that he can use and then save for "his" children. |
The classic child's set is Royal Doulton Bunnykins. Yes it's pricey, yes it's fine china, but it's sturdy, the bowl I gave my now 10 year old gransdon is still being used by his younger brother. Any jewlry store should have it, or discount stores, on line try Ross Simons ( look in google for the URL) or many others. Linda C |
