Drink of the Week: Suja Fiji
With Negroni Week just a
few days away, we'll soon be raising cocktail glasses to bars and charities
across the globe that will be participating in the festivities. Which is why
we're taking it easy with today's Drink of the Week. Made from an organic,
cold-pressed mix of tart apples, refreshing cucumber, celery, kale, ginger and
lemon, it's a cooling tonic that helps hit the restart button (or in our case,
the pre-start button). Green has never tasted so good. Sujajuice.com

Donate online NOW, and start making a difference in a child's life today.
Your support of these summer camps will bring hope to orphans like Inna.
Inna would have wound up another orphan statistic that plagues Ukraine and Russia, but as a young teen, she was invited by School Without Walls students from Rovno, Ukraine, to one of the evangelistic summer camps they organized and led.
When Inna's father died almost ten years ago, her mother was left with five children to raise on her own. And it proved to be too much.
"My mother started to drink," recalls Inna of her early childhood days. Eventually, Inna's mother sent her two older brothers to an orphanage, and at the tender age of seven, Inna didn't begin school, but began to care for her two younger sisters.
One dreadful day, Inna watched her mother walk out and lock the apartment door behind her, leaving behind three little girls, ages seven, five and three, all alone and with only frozen potatoes and cabbage to eat.
When local authorities discovered this gross neglect, the three sisters were quickly removed from the apartment and placed in separate orphanages, where Inna has lived for the past nine years.
It was at one of Russian Ministries' evangelistic summer camps that Inna discovered hope. "For the first time, I began to feel peaceful and calm," says Inna.
God is using School Without Walls students and other young Christian leaders to reach out to helpless children and teenagers like Inna, and a new generation is discovering hope in Christ.
"There is joy in my heart in spite of everything that has happened in my life. I feel God's love for me. I hope to attend many more camps like this one," Inna states happily.
A donation to our evangelistic summer camp ministry will help School Without Walls students reach at least 5,000 needy children and teenagers at evangelistic summer camps in Russia and Ukraine, and especially significant, in the ever-turbulent Northern Caucasus, including North and South Ossetia, Chechnya, Ingushetia and Kabardino-Balkaria.
Each $50 gift will help send one camper to a life-changing week of camp and help provide a Bible and/or Christian literature for that child or teenager.
- $100 will help send two campers to camp and provide Bibles and Christian literature for them.
- $200 will help send four campers to camp and provide Bibles and Christian literature.
- $300 will help send six campers to camp and provide Bibles and Christian literature.
Perhaps God is prompting you to help send eight or even ten campers to one of these evangelistic summer camps, so they can hear about God's love for the first time, and discover new life and hope in Him
Peter Wooding, Europe Bureau Chief for ASSIST News Service, reports on our Summer of Hope campaign for our evangelistic summer camps.

NorthMarq, the largest privately held commercial real estate financial intermediary in the U.S., provides mortgage banking and commercial loan servicing in 34 offices coast to coast. With more than $10 billion in annual production volume and servicing a loan portfolio of more than $41 billion, the company offers expertise to borrowers of all size. The company has a long track record of multi-family financing as a Freddie Mac Program Plus� Seller-Servicer, and through its affiliation with Fannie Mae DUS lender AmeriSphere Multifamily Finance. In addition, NorthMarq has long loan production and loan servicing relationships with more than 50 life companies, many CMBS platforms and hundreds of local, regional and national banks.
NorthMarq boasts a unique history. During the course of half a century, market conditions and other factors influenced decisions about the best way to effectively serve clients.
The Hamm Era We can trace our roots to 1916 when the Hamm family, founders and owners of the Theodore Hamm Brewing Company, formed United Properties Incorporated as part of a plan to reorganize the brewing company. United Properties would acquire all property not used in the brewing business. During the next 30 years, United Properties acquired or established new companies and became the parent company to a diverse mix of business interests.
One of those companies was General Mortgage Investments, acquired in 1962. United Properties established the commercial division of GMI to provide mortgage banking services to the commercial real estate industry.
The Northland Company Era When Edward H. Hamm acquired control of United Properties in 1967, the company name changed to The Northland Company to better represent the company's diverse businesses. The United Properties name was given to The Northland Company's real estate division. Not long after, General Mortgage Investments was renamed Northland Mortgage Company.
In 1984, changes in the residential mortgage industry prompted The Northland Company to sell Northland Mortgage. In anticipation, the commercial division was incorporated as Northland Financial and not included in the sale.
The Pohlad Era Northland Financial was sold to the Pohlad family in 1998 and became part of the Marquette Financial Companies portfolio of operating companies. Ultimately the company was renamed NorthMarq Capital.
Expanding the Business During the 1970s the commercial operations expanded to St. Louis and Kansas City; and in the early 1980s offices were opened in Denver and Phoenix. By the late 1980s an expansion on the West Coast occurred with offices opening in Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco. In 1998, we opened an office in Chicago, strengthening our Midwest presence. Through growth and acquisition, we have built a truly nationwide presence. Beginning 1998, several companies and operations have joined the NorthMarq organization:
In 2008, NorthMarq Capital became part of the newly formed Marquette Real Estate Group and joined NorthMarq Real Estate Services in providing comprehensive commercial real estate services to clients. In 2011, NorthMarq Real Estate Services formed a joint venture with Cushman Wakefield, and NorthMarq returned to its roots as a provider of commercial real estate mortgage banking services.
The holding company of NorthMarq Capital and Cushman & Wakefield/NorthMarq is now known as NorthMarq Companies.

Linux Foundation Works to Find Work for Linux Workers
The Linux Foundation does many things: it coordinates Linux development, advocates for Open Source adoption, offers a variety of conferences and events throughout the year, and supports Linus' continuing work on the Linux kernel, and quite a bit more. As of last Thursday, there is a new addition to the Foundation's "what we do" list: it finds you a job.
Linux adoption continues to grow exponentially, and with increased adoption comes an increase in employment opportunities for qualified professionals. Though the corporate world may be short on experienced pros, the Linux Foundation certainly isn't — between its various offerings, it boasts a reach measured in millions. Connecting the two is a logical extension of the Foundation's mission and the goal of the newly unveiled job board at Linux.com.
According to Executive Director Jim Zemlin, the Foundation hopes to "bring together employers, recruiters and job seekers to lay the intellectual foundation for tomorrow's IT industry." The board, which has already attracted a number of listings, is an extension of Linux.com's existing community resources. Site members already have the opportunity to contribute in various ways — providing content, participating in groups, and offering support to Linux users, among others. Users have the option to add a resume to their Linux.com profile, as well as information from LinkedIn.
The Foundation is partnering with The JobThread Network to provide two options for those interested in adding listings to the board. Posters can elect to list their open positions with JobThread's network of sites in addition to Linux.com, or to post only on Linux.com. Though the board is free for those seeking jobs, there is a fee for posting positions. The Linux.com-only option runs $99 for fifteen days or $199 for thirty days — the dual-listing package uses a "pay for performance" model that charges 49¢ per-view.
The board offers email alerts and RSS feeds for tracking new listings, and the Foundation will be posting job opportunities to its Twitter feed.
Justin Ryan is a Contributing Editor for Linux Journal.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

You did the final walkthrough and saw the status of the palce. Why on Earth did you not go back for a walkthrough right before closing? |
- Posted by cas66ragtop (My Page) on Tue, Oct 25, 11 at 15:31
Wow - nasty! It amazes me the number of trashy people out there who could care less about anyone esle. Sorry you have to deal with that mess. Your realtor is right - there is nothing (legally) you can do. It could have been a lot worse, so just clean it up, and don't let it bother you too much. |
Resale homes are sold "as is", unless you had something in your contract specifying that the sellers would have the home professionally cleaned, I think that you are SOL. Sorry :( |
- Posted by LuAnn_in_PA (My Page) on Tue, Oct 25, 11 at 17:17
Vacuuming won't help that rug anyways.... Next time, you'll know to do another walk through! |
"Resale homes are sold "as is", unless you had something in your contract specifying that the sellers would have the home professionally cleaned, I think that you are SOL. " A common clause says 'broom clean.' Since you did not take action at settlement you are probably SOL. Any leverage is gone. |
Lesson learned: don't close until sellers are moved out and walk-through complete. But for consolation, think that the person who lived like that probably wouldn't "broom clean" to your satisfaction anyway. So pay a service $200 to deep clean it and another $200 for carpet cleaning and you'll feel better. Or apply elbow grease and rent a carpet cleaner. Whatever you can afford. Easier to clean empty. |
To answer your question, ncrealestate, DH made me promise not to say anything because he was worried they would back out- which I highly doubt, as it would have cost them money. The house is clean now, I guess I was just hoping for some form of redemption. |
- Posted by ncrealestateguy (My Page) on Tue, Oct 25, 11 at 21:02
Glad to hear the home is clean now. Your agent should have advised you to go back on the day of closing. People that have no self respect for themselves are not going to show you any either. As Brickeyee says, most contracts state that the house must be left "broom clean". Just go forward enjoying your new home, and just chalk it up to finding out that some people are disrespectful slobs. |
- Posted by LoveInTheHouse (My Page) on Tue, Oct 25, 11 at 22:10
Maybe this will make you feel better. The seller of a house we bought left us a freezer FULL of rotten meat. I mean, liquified, maggot-infested meat. When we opened the lid, we dropped it and ran, that's how bad it was. |
LoveInTheHouse, that is horrendous! |
"Lesson learned: don't close until sellers are moved out and walk-through complete." Or require a painfully large amount of funds to be escrowed at settlement to be released on your signature. You should see how clean a place can be when the seller realizes they have $20,000 held back and a deadline. |
As a seller I will not agree to vacate my property until closing, ie money in my hand. I don't want to give that much leverage to the buyer before closing. In the end, it isn't too big a deal for you. |
- Posted by Invisible_Hand (My Page) on Thu, Oct 27, 11 at 10:50
ncrealestateguy has it right: "Your agent should have advised you to go back on the day of closing." If they did provide the appropriate advice, then your decision not to object leaves you with no recourse. If your agent failed to provide advice that you were at risk doing a final walk-through so far in advance of possession, they should be held accountable - ask them to pay for cleaning & escalate to their broker if required. |
The sellers asked for two extra days and we agreed. Does this mean that you delayed closing for two days or that you closed and then let them stay in your house rent-free for two days? |
They stayed rent-free. This is one of the reasons I am so bothered by this- we were very understanding and lenient with these people. DH even helped them move by doing a dump-run for them. But I also feel our Realtor was very unprofessional. First, she took us to view 3 houses that turned out to have already been sold. One of them we were very interested in and she tried to cover up her mistake by saying it had just been sold that day- a quick search on the internet revealed that it had been off the market for weeks. Then she failed to enter in our contract that we wanted their furniture and ride-on mower (which they said we could arrange.) Because she failed to enter this, they reneged on that offer. And yes, I realize it was absolutely our mistake to not read it more carefully, but we were right behind her as she was writing it up- I don't see how she failed to include that. They also left their cat here, and it's constantly crying for attention but I am so not a cat person. Not to mention their punk son who has come back three times because he "forgot something." I so badly want to yell, "of course you did, you left all of your junk here!" But alas, DH says to let it be. I guess that is why I'm venting on here- because I need to speak my mind and he won't let me. |
They left their CAT ???! Please, continue to take car of the poor creature, because certainly it is a victim of their selfishness and abuse, just as you were. You may not be a cat person, but you should bond together on this. The cat probably understands your feelings better than your husband does with regard to this immature and slobbish family. |

You think the punk son forgot his bag of weed that he had hidden under a floor board? Haha Wow - and they even left their cat.......pretty pathetic people. If you aren't a cat person and don't want to keep it - please try to find a friend or relative to take it who will take good care of it. Taking it to the Humane Society seems like the right thing to do, but unless it is a cute playful kitten, most cats end up being put down - I have heard as high as 70% don't make it. Sorry to sound negative. Thats also really crappy you were so nice to them (overly nice) and then they got away with all that crap. You know what they say - give someone an inch, they will take a mile. Use this as a learning experience and try not to feel so bad about it. They are the scumbags who will continue to be scumbags for the rest of their lives. You are the better person and will continue to be. Your realtor sounds like they couldn't care too much about you, and did a poor job of handling your requests - but unfortunately, you carry some of that blame too. You signed off on the paperwork that did not include the conveyances. Next time try to be more careful. Don't feel too ripped off that you didn't get the furniture or riding mower. Judging by the way they left things, and the kind of "people" (and I use that term loosely) they are, the furniture was probably all flea-infested and the lawnmower was probably a piece of crap anyway. Good luck - hope things get better for you. Try to enjoy your new house. Don't give scumbags like this the power to bring you down. You are better than that. |

Cas66ragtop (I really need to find an acronym for your name), your last post was right on. Hope your selling is going well. |
Thank you all. We are trying to find the cat a home but are, of course, keeping it fed in the meantime. It was nice to get this off of my chest. |
- Posted by cas66ragtop (My Page) on Fri, Oct 28, 11 at 8:29
Thanks NC. An easy name for me could be CAS or CAS66 or you could just call me SH*THEAD. Selling is going "ok" - we have had lots of interest, just nobody making an offer. I wrote an incredibly long story about whats going on, but haven't posted it yet - I don't want to bore anyone with it and I don't want to jinx myself with some of the negativity either. I'm trying to stay positive and hoping that something will happen soon. Thanks for asking. |
Are you sure it's their cat? Was it IN the house when you took possession or does it have a collar with their name on it? Or is it possible that it's just a stray cat that they might have fed occasionally and it is just coming to the door expecting you to continue the tradition? If you are sure it's theirs, have you informed them that you found it? Maybe they lost it during the move and are worried sick about it. |
If they had any concern at all for their cat, they would have called or stopped by the minute they realized it was missing. |
It's their cat. They had asked us if we'd keep it and we'd said no. Then they gave us sob stories every time we saw them, saying, "oh, I guess we're just going to put him down then." They also had the nerve to ask more than once if their son could rent a room from us, and tried to make us feel guilty about that, too. "Well, who knows what will happen to him. He has nowhere to go." Crazy people- who leaves their teenage son behind? But don't worry, the neighbors took him in. |

I don't know if it helps, but sometimes I find that imagining someone's "story" to be helpful in mustering my patience. Whatever leads someone to have no pride in how they live or how they present themselves and abandon their cat (!) and their son (!!!) must have been a long hard road. Can you imagine how they were raised? I'm real glad not to be them. Anyway, it all sounds very frustrating, but I hope one day it will be something you can laugh at. |
Geez - this story just gets worse and worse every time I check in. It started out with dirt and trash, then the "rent-free" and furniture/lawn mower, then the cat (!) and now the teenager (!!). Yikes!!! Where on earth were they going that they couldn't take their son? Commune? Homeless shelter? Rehab? Jail? |
- Posted by ncrealestateguy (My Page) on Fri, Oct 28, 11 at 15:31
"They left their son behind" As soon as I read this I just had to laugh out loud. Not because it is a funny situation, but it just caught me by surprise. SH*THEAD, we want to hear your story when you are ready... Again, good luck. |
Are you sure the guy is even a their son? Are you sure he's a teenager? Too many grown-ass men act and live as punk teenagers for decades. If the son is done with high school, it's time to get out of the parents house anyway. |
- Posted by gardenspice (My Page) on Wed, Nov 2, 11 at 16:57
Wow, given what the did to their kid, the cat is small potatoes and the dirty carpet and drain? Hardly noticeable. I'd burn some sage and try not to think of them again. |
So by "teenage son", are we talking 13 or 18. Big difference. If he's 17 or 18, then maybe he really wants to finish his final year of high school with his friends and doesn't want to move to a different district. That's understandable and I could see why the previous owners would be trying to find him a room in his current area. (However, pressuring you is not acceptable.) |
I too am shaking my head over this bizarre story. I agree that a dirty left house pales in comparison to leaving a cat and son behind and whining to you about both. Is this for real? How could you put up with this situation without taking a firm stand? This is truly unbelievable. |
It is bizarre, isn't it? But it all seems to be over with. The son hasn't come around for a few days. The cat doesn't bother us- we feed it and DH seems to even be taking a liking to it. In the end it was all worth it and the house is coming together beautifully. One more tidbit I left out (and I'm sorry this story keeps getting more complicated) but we had originally expressed interest in their glass top coffee table. They had said we could negotiate on it but that there were scratches on it because of their daughter's cocaine problem! Needless to say, we decided against it! Well, it has been nice venting about these crazies. Peace and love to all of you, I feel a weight has been lifted! |
"They had said we could negotiate on it but that there were scratches on it because of their daughter's cocaine problem! " They actually TOLD you that?!? OMG. The cat should be sending you thank you notes by this time, just for taking it in and saving it from those crazies. Something tells me this family will appear in this forum in the future. Perhaps another thread along the lines of "you won't believe the crazies who just moved in next to us". Anyway, I'm glad things worked out for you, and the house and your family is doing well. Congratulations on your new home. |

ynnej - You definitely win this year's prize for the craziest house buying story! |
- Posted by wantoretire_did (My Page) on Thu, Nov 10, 11 at 4:49
ynnej - Please tell us that you have had the locks rekeyed or changed!!!! Just because 'the son hasn't come around in a few days' doesn't mean he won't be back. Daughter using cocain? Red flags all over the place..... |
Unbelievable! I'm sorry you had to go through that. Hopefully you'll remember that no good deed goes unpunished in the future. And seriously, it would be worth the price of a locksmith to have everything re-keyed. The former homeowners are a piece of work. |

theres a lot of disgusting people out there |
- Posted by onlygirlsmom (My Page) on Mon, Nov 14, 11 at 19:51
Yes, there are indeed scum out there, some of us even get the opportunity to call them "relatives" My story. :) My parents lived in a house for nearly 32 yrs. My brother ended up buying it from them at a great price. My brother's wife is a total spendaholic and who just can't say no to nice things. They lived in the house for the past 10 years. They ended up filing bankruptcy and put the house into it as well (this, in itself, ticked me off b/c my brother makes good money -right around 6 figures-their money issues have nothing to do w/ $$$ just bad spending habits). The week before the bank was to take possession I told my sister to call me as soon as they had left town (my bro and SIL decided to start anew half way across the country, dragging their 4 kids with them). My sister arrived first (I live about 1 1/2 hours away)and there were already scavengers at the house (my SIL had told them they could come and take whatever was left -they had already sold ALL appliances, including the pool heater). We sent the scavengers away and proceeded to spent the next 9 hours cleaning. We had no electricity, so it was priminitive at best. At the end of the day we had btwn 35-40 black bags of garbage! It was absolutely disgusting and shocking that my brother could leave a family home like that. BUT the best part about it all? My SIL (and my bro..I'm sure b/c of my nutjob SIL) went psycho on us, threatened us and told us never to speak to them again.... all for cleaning a house? If I can find the pics, I can show you the before and after. Absolutely unbelievable. And, this was FAMILY!! |
I hope you had all the locks changed and if there wasn't an alarm on the house I hope you have one installed. A daughter w/a coke habit means friends that have drug habits as well. Had a dear friend whose sister was murdered in her home because a her lousy coke head brother's "friends" came back looking for him. PLEASE take extra care to make your home secure. |

"The cat doesn't bother us- we feed it and DH seems to even be taking a liking to it. In the end it was all worth it and the house is coming together beautifully." Glad to hear the house is coming along and that cat isn't going to have to be casualty of your white trash sellers. Happy Thanksgiving! |
...and that cat isn't going to have to be casualty of your white trash sellers. Why are you assuming that the sellers are white (oops, I mean ... pigmentally challenged)? That's racist! ;) |
- Posted by dreamgarden (My Page) on Thu, Nov 24, 11 at 11:18
'Pigmentally challenged'. I like that! No racism intended. Glad the cat is ok. I wonder if the OP might be interested in having a cop with a K9 dog over to see if the son left any drugs in the house? |
The family who purchased the house across the street from us found their new home not even this clean. Around the house, mostly in the basement, were broken chairs, broken TV stands, basically just broken stuff all over. The pipe underneath the kitchen sink leaked, and a pair of vice grip pliers replaced one of the shower handles. As the snow melted, the strange lumps underneath turned out to be...more broken junk, tossed out of the house but never taken to the dump. Well, you can't put furniture in the trash, you have to take it to the "transfer station," aka dump, and pay for disposal by the pound. |

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Providence Mayor Angel Taveras has a slim edge over General Treasurer Gina Raimondo in the Democratic contest for governor, but one out of four of likely primary voters have not yet made up their minds, according to an exclusive Providence Journal/WPRI poll.
If the September Democratic primary were held today, Taveras would lead the field with 31 percent of the vote compared to 27 percent for Raimondo, 15 percent for political newcomer Clay Pell and 1 percent for Todd Giroux. Another 25 percent of those polled described themselves as undecided.
Based on these findings, veteran pollster Joseph Fleming said: "The Democratic primary for governor is wide open at the present time."
The telephone survey of 503 likely Democratic primary voters was conducted by Fleming & Associates between Feb. 3-6.
The potential margin for error is 4.38 percent, which means the numbers could be off by that much in either direction and Raimondo — with two-and-a-half times more campaign money than Taveras has — could be in a statistical dead heat with the mayor.
Among the other highlights:
The vast majority of likely Democratic primary voters consider prior elective experience important for a candidate for governor.
When asked how important they considered a track record in office, 70 percent said "very" or "somewhat important." Another 12 percent said "somewhat unimportant." Only 17 percent said "not important at all."
This clearly poses a political problem for newcomer Clay Pell, the 32-year-old grandson of the late U.S. Sen. Claiborne Pell of Rhode Island, who is making his first run for public office. He entered the race with a revered last name and a famous wife — former Olympic figure-skater Michelle Kwan — but no elective experience.
More voters have a "favorable" opinion of Taveras than they do of the other candidates, with 68 percent saying they have a "very" to "somewhat favorable" impression of him overall, compared to 55 percent for Raimondo and 37 percent for the largely unknown Pell
The results also demonstrate the extent to which Taveras and Raimondo have built corps of supporters, detractors — and reputations — on their signature issues.
For example, nearly two-thirds of those polled believe the capital city's recent financial problems have been solved to some extent, but only 10 percent believe the problems are "totally" or even "mostly solved."
Another 27 percent say: "not solved at all."
Forty-six percent of those polled support Raimondo's signature accomplishment: the passage of sweeping changes in Rhode Island's pension system for public employees. They included a higher retirement age, reduction in benefits and suspension of the annual "cost-of-living adjustments," known as COLAs.
Twenty-eight percent oppose the General Assembly-passed changes, with 27 percent not sure.
The poll was conducted before news broke Monday of a proposed — but as yet undisclosed — settlement of the state's court fight with its public employee unions over the legality of the Raimondo-led pension overhaul. Lawmakers approved the changes in 2011 to save hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars annually, and $4 billion over the next two decades.
It is unknown how news of the proposed settlement, hammered out during a year of secret, court-ordered talks, might have affected the poll results.
Nonetheless, there are big differences in how the candidates are viewed by different blocs of potential Democratic primary voters, including public-employee union members and independents who are free to vote in either party's primary.
Among self-declared Democrats, Taveras leads Raimondo 35 percent to 26 percent, with Pell trailing at 16 percent and the rest undecided.
Among those who describe themselves as "independents," Raimondo has a narrow edge. She leads Taveras 31 percent to 28 percent. (Of those polled, an overall 58 percent described themselves as Democrats, 38 percent as independents.)
Only 21 percent of those polled said they are members of an employees union, and 80 percent of those in a union told the pollsters they are members of a public-sector union.
More than half — 53 percent — of those who identified themselves as members of a public-sector union said they opposed the 2011 rewrite of the state's pension law.
Flipping the coin: nearly half — 48 percent — of the private-sector union members who were polled supported the money-saving changes. Twenty-nine percent were not sure.
Public sector union members were also more inclined to support Taveras, who negotiated pension changes with city employees, than Raimondo.
Taveras got a potential 35 percent of the public union vote, Pell, 19 percent, and Raimondo, 17 percent, with almost a quarter undecided.
Among private-sector union members, with nothing at stake in the pension-fight except their own tax dollars, Raimondo and Taveras are tied with 33 percent of the vote, with Pell at 10 percent.
Taveras' campaign manager Danny Kedem said: "We appreciate that people across Rhode Island are putting their faith in Angel's leadership.
"Poll numbers will go up and down, but what will not change is the mayor's determination to stand up for working families. His experience of leading Providence out of a $110-million structural deficit to a budget surplus will matter to voters."
Raimondo campaign manager Eric Hyers called the poll results "encouraging," and said: "We're pleased to be in a statistical dead heat as the race gets under way."
Hyers suggested the results reflect the public's acknowledgement of Raimondo's role in the 2011 pension overhaul. "Gina brought people together to solve this big problem and was proud to work with the General Assembly which passed pension reform with overwhelming majorities in both houses."
He said the poll also underlined the value that voters place on experience: "Gina has a clear track record of bringing people together get big things done."
Pell spokesman Bill Fischer said: "The poll clearly demonstrates this election is wide open."
"In the months ahead, we'll have the opportunity to speak to people about Clay's problem-solving experience in the Coast Guard, at the White House and at the U.S. Department of Education," Fischer said, but "this is a great starting point for someone who just got into the race from outside of politics."

Wonder if those with a laundry room NOT adjacent to the kitchen have any regrets? I'm thinking about planning my laundry room near the split bedrooms instead of across the house near the kitchen. Advice on this would be appreciated. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Put it where you want it! |
I have a friend that built her laundry room in the bedroom area, and she really likes it there. There are 4 bedrooms in that area of the house. (5 kids, farm, and a dog kennel) It's convenient for the family to drop off their dirty laundry there, and it's also convenient for them to pick it up, or for her to deliver it if she is so inclined. :-) There is a closet across the hall that holds linens and some clothing. Her house is a large ranch, and the kitchen is quite a number of steps away from the bedrooms. When she does laundry, it's a multi-hour project and she spends a lot of time in that room. My laundry room is off the kitchen, and I like my location. I have a smallish ranch house, so it's not that far for the family to bring their laundry out/pick it up. I do a big wash weekly, but I also do smaller loads during the week--so my location suits me just fine. Cj |
The only advice I will offer is that you make sure the laundry room is on an outside wall. Optimally, the dryer vent should have a short distance to the outside. Our laundry room is at the other end of the house from the bedrooms. On the positive side, it helps me walk those 10k steps-a-day that doctors recommend. ;-) |
I have a large 2 story home. When we moved in we used the laundry room downstairs, next to the kitchen as the prior owners had. I quickly added another laundry set upstairs. The house was already plumbed for the second story laundry. It drove me crazy to lug the dirty laundry downstairs then back up once it was washed. If you want your laundry room downstairs I would recommend having a room large enough to store the dirty laundry, fold and sort the clean laundry and a way to close it off when you have visitors. |
I like a laundry close to where you will be while you're doing the laundry. It would drive me nuts to run up and down stairs to tend to the washer and dryer, or to hike across the house back and forth. I agree with the person who said position the dryer vent with a short run. And try to be sure it's easily accessible for lint cleaning. Did you read about Robert DeNiro's fire the other day, caused by clogged lint? |

3 Reasons Why I'm Hyped On Forza 5
Xbox One is launching with a new entry in the Forza Motorsport series. Come check out why Forza Motorsport 5 has got my attention. Back to Article
Hey, Boysrock50! Exclusives are needed to drive early hardware sales It's business. Plus Forza 5 was designed from the ground up for the new hardware and azure servers. The game just wouldn't work as the developers intended on Xbox 360.
Xbox 360 is 8 years old now! It's time to get ready for the new generation of hardware that we will be gaming on for the next 10 years! Next-Gen starts in November!
Game on!
i hope the drifting is better than forza 4 and why isnt it on xbox 360!!!!!!!
Basicly a gzme with cloud that spies on you, and a vibrate feature on a controler.
That's what happens when a sim racer gets you fascinated into cars and you crave more realism than just GT and Forza.
That's awesome! You probably know more about sim racer's than I do!
Me too. Been a fan since I was like 6 or 7 years old. Without GT, I would have never known about the hardcore racing sims, like rFactor, Live For Speed, and Simraceway.
GT is awesome! It was the series that made me love sim racers
Too much of a Gran Turismo fan to like Forza. Waiting for GT6 very impatiently right now.
AlphaT! You can customize the controls to make them very simple, with all the assists turned on if you like. The game is scalable so that beginners and pros can enjoy it
But simulation style is definitely not for everyone, I understand that.
Hyped about a game? I love video games but I get hyped over good things! Like a talking to someone who amazing! But for a game....

Pontiac, Michigan -- Oakland County, Michigan, is among three regions in the nation which will receive the National Green Infrastructure Implementation Award February 24, 2011, at the upcoming National Green Infrastructure Conference in Shepherdstown, West Virginia.
"Oakland County continues to serve as a national model for others to follow," said Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson. "The National Green Infrastructure Implementation Award recognizes the excellence of one of our many green initiatives."
Oakland County's Green Infrastructure Vision is a collage of local open space efforts among its 62 communities, intended to guide and coordinate local and multijurisdictional preservation efforts. The process takes a broad-based ecosystem approach to planning for the protection and stewardship of sustainable biological diversity. The county's vision also provides a roadmap into the future and creates opportunities to connect to the land through trails, parks, open space and waterways.
"We are extremely honored to receive this award," said Jim Keglovitz, a senior planner for Oakland County. "It gives us the opportunity to celebrate the hard work of several hundred individuals and the many organizations that shaped our Green Infrastructure Vision."
The panel selecting the final award winners was comprised of representatives from The Conservation Fund; the US Department of Defense; the US Environmental Protection Agency; the US Fish & Wildlife Service; the US Forest Service; the US National Park Service; the Federal Highway Administration; the American Planning Association; the National Association of Clean Water Agencies; the Clean Water America Alliance; and the Green Infrastructure Community of Practice.
Oakland County's Green Infrastructure Vision is one among several green initiatives by the county. The others include:

Mill, John Stuart
Mill, John Stuart
biographical name(born May 20, 1806, London, Eng.died May 8, 1873, Avignon, France) British philosopher and economist, the leading expositor of utilitarianism. He was educated exclusively and exhaustively by his father, James Mill. By age 8 he had read in the original Greek Aesop's Fables, Xenophon's Anabasis, and all of Herodotus, and he had begun a study of Euclid's geometry; at age 12 he began a thorough study of scholastic logic. In 1823 he cofounded the Utilitarian Society with Jeremy Bentham, though he would later significantly modify the utilitarianism he inherited from Bentham and his father to meet the criticisms it encountered. In 1826 he and Bentham cofounded London University (now University College). From 1828 to 1856 he was an assistant examiner in India House, where from 1836 he was in charge of the East India Company's relations with the Indian states. In the 1840s he published his great systematic works in logic and political economy, chiefly A System of Logic (2 vol., 1843) and Principles of Political Economy (2 vol., 1848). As head of the examiner's office in India House from 1856 to 1858 he wrote a defense of the company's government of India when the transfer of its powers was proposed. In 1859 he published On Liberty, a trenchant defense of individual freedom. His Utilitarianism (1863) is a closely reasoned attempt to answer objections to his ethical theory and to address misconceptions about it; he was especially insistent that utility include the pleasures of the imagination and the gratification of the higher emotions and that his system include a place for settled rules of conduct. In 1869 he published The Subjection of Women (written 1861), now the classical theoretical statement of the case for woman suffrage. Prominent as a publicist in the reforming age of the 19th century, he remains of lasting interest as a logician and ethical theorist. See also Mill's methods.

Aaron Rodgers: Packers' catalyst for success
BY PATRICK FINLEY Staff Reporter October 31, 2013 9:21PM
Updated: December 2, 2013 12:55PM
Aaron Rodgers has started games without two starting wide receivers, two starting running backs, his starting fullback and starting tight end.
Yet the Packers quarterback has still been, well, himself.
"You know I can't give out any of those secrets," he said Thursday. "It's something in the water up here in Green Bay."
Rather than drill their banged-up defense in preparation for the 5-2 Packers this week, the Bears might be better served renting a backhoe and trying to reroute that water line to Halas Hall.
As if it needed to be in starker relief, Rodgers is the reason for the Packers' success.
And he owns the Bears.
Rodgers has won six in a row against his rival, including an NFC title game during the Packers' Super Bowl year, and is 9-2 all-time against the Bears.
It's gotten to this: Rodgers gave an "anybody can beat anybody on a given Sunday" answer to why he shouldn't be overconfident against the Bears.
"We're a big ol' humble bunch up here in the great state of Wisconsin," said Packers coach Mike McCarthy, who has won 10 consecutive NFC North home games. "Trust me, we're not."
While the Bears' coaching staff has turned over from Lovie Smith to Marc Trestman, the Packers' staff has been similar for years.
McCarthy has been the coach in every single one of Rodgers' starts; when offensive coordinator Joe Philbin left for the Miami Dolphins before last season, he was replaced by Rodgers' quarterbacks coach, Tom Clements.
That consistency has made it easier to plug in receivers —and tight ends and running backs — when needed.
"There's an expectation," Rodgers said. "When you step in, you've got to play well."
Rodgers "has been doing it for a long time, in the same offense," Bears cornerback Tim Jennings said.
"He's not dippin' and dabbin' into different offensive coordinators," he said.
Asked what concerned him about the Packers quarterback, new Bears defensive coordinator Mel Tucker gave a nervous smile.
"How much time ya got?" he said.
We'll start here:
◆ In his last four games against the Bears, Rodgers has thrown for 1,090 yards and 12 touchdowns, with two interceptions, for a 117.2 passer rating.
◆ No quarterback in history has dominated his division like Rodgers. His 110.7 regular-season passer rating against divisional foes in an NFL record. So is his 69.8 completion percentage, 8.40 yards per attempt, 64-15 touchdown-to-interception ratio and his 1.54 interception percentage.
◆ Until the kneel-down Sunday night against the Minnesota Vikings, Rodgers had led the Packers to points on every single possession.
"He's one of the elite quarterbacks," safety Major Wright said. "He makes guys become great players."
Trestman praised the Packers' coaching and development staffs for the plug-and-play skill position players who have helped replace Randall Cobb, Jermichael Finley and others.
"It's not just Aaron," he said. "We all know he's the trigger man, but I think there's a lot of parts to this."
Still, Rodgers — whose 8.80 yards per attempt leads the league and 108 passer rating is fourth-best — "makes everything go," Trestman said, because, "has the ability to move around and make plays because of his tremendous accuracy."
The Bears don't need reminding.
"You see an offense that's been together for a while, you see a quarterback that's an elite quarterback, and you see consistency," linebacker James Anderson said.
"You see guys that know what they're doing, and they do their jobs.
"That's the key to any well-oiled machine."
Speaking of machines: Anyone know where to rent that backhoe?

Aromatherapy massage is a gentle massage with essential oils, balancing and relaxing the body, releasing inner tensions and alleviating physical problems.
Aroma massage is the most effective method of aromatherapy and differs from the classical massage as it is gentler, slower and very relaxing and causes no sensation of pain.
On the other hand, it is not merely soothing because the entire body is relaxed and the effect of oils is experienced for hours. Smoothing effleurage and stretching movements applied on the entire body relax and help to absorb essential oils. Every oil has its own specific impact on the body and mind balance. According to their impact oils are divided as follows: calming, invigorating, anti-virus and -inflammation, anti-depression, pain alleviating, anti-septic, stimulating, relaxing or diuretic.
Together with the customer we try to find the most appropriate and pleasant essential oils, which would ease inner tension and release physical ailments. Aroma massage enables to prevent and significantly alleviate stress that is usually the main reason of all diseases and problems.
Aromatherapy massage affects the metabolism inside cells, invigorates the immune system and helps in case of hormone problems (e.g. climacteric disorders, PMS problems, etc.), alleviates muscle, joint and nerve pains, balances the nerve system (stress, depression, sleeping disorders, etc.).
Essential oils retain in the body up to 3 days, renewing tissues and improving the elasticity of the skin.
In order to enjoy the expected results of aromatherapy and make the effect last, we recommend performing the procedure once a week during five to ten executive weeks.

What we tend to mean when we talk of freedom is the freedom from want. And we tend to think that freedom from want comes from getting what we desire.
So one path I sometimes stumble along in my life is to try to get all that I want.
But I've found that achieving the focus of my desire does not relieve me of the desire. Instead, the desire simply moves onto the next thing.
Life experience has shown me that there is no such thing as the fulfillment of desire. Desire, by its nature, never seems to be fulfilled. It is a tyrant that cracks its whip and demands the next thing.
The path to freedom does not seem to be getting what I desire. More, true freedom seems to come when I can be happy whether I have what I want or not.
But if that is true freedom, then what is the path?
