Building Exercise Self-Efficacy in Overweight and Obese Clients
Inner IDEA: Use short-term goals, partner games, open-ended questions and positive reinforcement to work through clients' difficulties.
You know them well—your obese clients who have tried everything: weight-loss meal programs, fat-burner pills, crash diets, gym memberships. Nothing worked for very long. When they turned up at your door, low self-efficacy was all they had to show for their sincere efforts to change.
More than anything, you want to help them turn the corner and adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors they can maintain. But how do you do it?

A Linux Quilt is a T-shirt quilt made from Linux T-shirts, of course...
It's also the answer to the age-old question:

Below is a picture of the first Linux Quilt. Unfortunately AlanRobertson has so many T-shirts, they won't fit into a single quilt. But, this is a good start.

The Ritz-Carlton, Sarasota twinkled with twirling and twisting sparkly, feather and ruffle-clad dancers last week during the Florida State DanceSport Championships organized by Lakewood Ranch residents Larry and Dianne Dean. But one local studio had a particularly starry night: Empire Ballroom Studios took home five Florida State Top Awards. The local studio took home the Triple Crown Top Local Studio and Triple Crown Top Small Studio. Owner Sid Pocius placed second in the Triple Crown Top Teacher, while two of his students also took home top awards — Susan Jones, Triple Crown Top Silver Student, and Brittony Swalm, Triple Crown Top Junior Student. Stay tuned for more of Pocius' award-winning dancers and dancing, because he organizes his own ballroom competition, the Sarasota Challenge, which will take place March 23 to 24, at the Hyatt Sarasota.

Witnesses to War
While remembrance services took place this weekend to remember the dead and injured from World Wars One and Two, those who actually fought in those conflicts are an increasingly rare breed. Veterans of the Great War are sadly no more, and those who fought and survived the battles on 1939-45 are in their eighties today, which inspired Bryan Dobson to capture the memories of Irish soldiers who fought in World War II in a fascinating new documentary due to air tonight on RTÉ One. Sean spoke to Bryan Dobson and one of those veterans,Albert Sutton.

Faithful Friends Animal Rescue-Garden City
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
Garden City, MI 48315 |
Email: Website: http://www.ffar.petfinder.com
Pets at Our Rescue Group:
Cities, Towns, and/or Counties We Serve:
Greater Detroit and Tri-County Area. We do consider long distance adoptions but it depends on the dog or cat in question.About Our Rescue Group:
Faithful Friends Animal Rescue is a new foster based rescue group. We do not own a shelter. The animals we have up for adoption live in foster homes and live "normal" lives while in foster care. This way, we are able to evaluate their personalities, assertain what issues, if any, may need work and what type of forever home would be best. Our goal is to ensure that these animals find their perfect forever home so they never have to worry about being homeless again.So many great natured, well behaved pets find themselves homeless everyday through no fault of their own and it's incredibly sad to know that many will never have an opportunity to get a 2nd chance. This is what drives the volunteers at Faithful Friends. To aid the unfortunate creatures that cannot speak for themselves.
The animals we have up for adoption were homeless for various reasons. Some come from shelters where they were either surrendered by their owners or where they were taken as a stray. Some come to us directly as strays - lucky enough to have crossed our path. Others come to us because their owners either cannot care for them or no longer wish to care for them. A variety or reasons and in most cases, the reasons have nothing to do with behavior issues.
Faithful Friends is a registered 501(c)(3) charity which means those willing to donate to our cause, have the ability to write off their donations. Donations are the life blood of any rescue organization and help us continue saving many needy animal lives. We know times are tough, but even a small donation would help our cause.
Come Meet our Pets:
Please see out website for the latest dates - www.ffar.petfinder.com.Our Adoption Process:
Pre-Adoption Application - Faithful Friends works via an application process. Anyone interested in adopting one of our animals completes our pre-adoption application. Filling this application out does not obligate you to adopt the animal in question but it does provide Faithful Friends with important information about the appllicant's lifestyle and pet history to ensure that they are matched with an animal that will fit into their lives with ease and which hopefully, will ensuer that the animal never has to find itself in the shelter system again.Home Visit - If it's determined that the applicant is a good match for the animal, a volunteer from Faithful Friends will come visit you in your home. We do try to bring the animal the person has applied for to a home visit but there are times when this is not possible depending on where the applicant lives and the schedules of our volunteeers. This stage of the adoption process gives us a better feel on where the animal will be living and the lifesytle of the person or family that would like to adopt the animal.
The entire adoption process from start to finish can take as little as a day or two or as much as a week depending on people's schedules. We hope that you will understand that bringing a new pet into your home should not be an impulse decision and that waiting a few days will help ensure that you are adopting the right pet.

Greater Portland + Casco Bay
Portland Harbor Hotel
Portland, ME, United States
Set on the edge of the cobbled Old Port neighborhood, this opened-in-2003 hotel offers upscale (if somewhat corporate) accommodations just steps from some of the city's best bars, restaurants, and shopping. Grand details like cornices, oversize flower arrangements, and hefty carved-wood antique reproductions adorn the lobby and dining room, while the 101 ample guest rooms and suites—with cheery yellow walls, toile fabrics, his-and-hers armoires, and mega-TVs with 70 channels—are more focused on comfort. Deluxe rooms and suites have positively palatial baths with Jacuzzi tubs. (Ask for the lavender bath "turndown.") Eve's, the hotel's restaurant, serves surprisingly good state-inspired dishes, like beef Oscar served with béarnaise sauce and local Peekytoe crab. And the adjacent cocktail lounge is a favorite local hangout—and a more civilized alternative to raucous brewpubs down the street; its garden terrace is a welcome oasis of calm in warm weather.
Room to Book:
Request any one of the hushed garden-facing rooms to avoid occasional street noise.
Insider Tip:
Ask the concierge to book a front-row table at Fore Street, James Beard Award–winning chef Sam Hayward's lauded warehouse restaurant (just down the street at No. 288).

I have a Moonlight and a Keiffer pear trees planted 2 years ago. They are growing well. I need to know what kind of a spray schedule I need for them. I am getting ready to spray with dormant oil spray. After that, I don't know what kind of spray to use and how often. What kind of schedule should I put these trees on? I live in east Texas, 2 hours north of Houston. Thanks! Judith |
Follow-Up Postings:
Pears are the only trees that I never have to spray and you shouldn't either. |
I never spray my Keiffers. My Moonglow hasn't fruited yet but I'm not planning on spraying it. I wouldn't think you'd have to spray in 8b. |
Stink bugs ruined my pears last year and I'm trying to figure out the best option to deal with them - last fall I was given the advice to use Surround (fine kaolin clay) once every week or two for three sprayings right after petal fall. I don't think stink bugs have become a problem (yet) as far west as Texas, not sure what other pests are a problem for pears but I think Surround is good for anything that affects young fruit. Hopefully some more experienced fruit growers will be able to help more. Just trying to relay some of the advice I got last year. |

I got Fabraea Leaf Spot in my pears last year. This winter I've already done Bordeaux Mixture, and there is a schedule starting bud-to-bloom of fungicides (mancozeb is listed) to try to clear it up for this year. I don't know if that's in your area, but I'd probably dormant spray a fungicide if it is just in case. I'm new to this, though! I've definitely got Fabraea, however. |
- Posted by harvestman 6 (My Page) on Fri, Feb 28, 14 at 6:57
I believe in spraying after I have some idea what I'm up against. As suggested, your pears may require no spray at all, but you won't ever know if you spray preemtively. The point of the varieties you are trying to grow is that they are pest resistant. Test them. |

Recommendations > Recommendation Detail
The Challenge: Over the Past Decade, the Environment for High-Growth Businesses has Become Increasingly Unfavorable
- Over the last three decades, high-growth enterprises less than five years old have created 40 million net new jobs, accounting for nearly all the net new job creation in America. However, since the early 2000s the environment for high-growth businesses to grow and thrive has become increasingly unfavorable.
- Research indicates that 90% of job creation for public firms occurs after they go public, yet the share of IPOs that were smaller than $50 million fell from 80% in the 1990s to 20% in the 2000s, and there were fewer venture-backed IPOs in 2008 and 2009 than in any year since 1985.
- In the last three years, the number of new businesses launching annually has fallen by an unprecedented 23%. If we had maintained the same level of start-up activity as in 2007, we would have nearly two million more jobs than we have today.
Jobs Council Recommendation: Launch a Comprehensive, Multi-Sector, Multi-Year Commitment to an Entrepreneurship Agenda
Unleashing the next era of entrepreneurship will ensure our nation remains competitive in an increasingly interdependent world. The Jobs Council recommends that the Administration, Congress and the private sector implement a comprehensive package to unleash startups and empower small businesses.
What Congress Should Do:
Build Bipartisan Support for Reforms that will Unleash the Next Wave of American Entrepreneurship
Win the Global Battle for Talent
Some of the most iconic American companies were started by immigrant entrepreneurs or the children of immigrant entrepreneurs. Today, however, many of the foreign students completing a STEM degree at a U.S. graduate school return to their home countries and begin competing against American workers. A significant majority of the Jobs Council calls upon Congress to pass reforms aimed directly at allowing the most promising foreign-born entrepreneurs to remain in or relocate to the U.S.
Reduce Regulatory Barriers and Provide Financial Incentives for Firms to Go Public
Lowering the barriers to and cost of IPOs is critical to accessing financing at the later stages of a high growth firms' expansion. A significant majority of the Jobs Council recommends amending Sarbanes-Oxley and "rightsizing" the effects of the Spitzer Decree and the Fair Disclosure Act to lessen the burdens on high growth entrepreneurial companies.
Enhance Access to Capital for Early Stage Startups as well as Later Stage Growth Companies
The challenging economic environment and skittish investment climate has resulted in investors generally becoming more risk-adverse, and this in turn has deprived many high-growth entrepreneurial companies of the capital they need to expand. The Jobs Council recommends enhancing the economic incentives for investors, so they are more willing to risk their capital in entrepreneurial companies.
What the Administration Should Do:
Take Immediate Administrative Actions that Help Entrepreneurs Grow and Create Jobs
Make it Easier for Entrepreneurs to Get Patent-Related Answers Faster
There are concerns among many entrepreneurs that, as written, the recently passed Patent Reform Act advantages large companies, and disadvantages young entrepreneurial companies. The Jobs Council recommends taking specific steps to ensure the ideas from young companies are handled appropriately.
Streamline SBA Financing Access, so More High -Growth Companies Get the Capital they Need to Grow
The SBA has provided early funding for a range of iconic American companies. The Jobs Council recommends that the Administration streamline and shorten application processing with published turnaround times, increase the number of full time employees who perform a training or compliance function, expand the overall list of lending partners, and push Congress to fully authorize SBIR and STTR funding for the long term, rather than for short term re-authorizations.
Expand Seed/Angel Capital
The Jobs Council recommends that the Administration clarify that experienced and active seed and angel investors should not be subject to the regulations that were designed to protect inexperienced investors. We also propose that smaller investors be allowed to use "crowd funding" platforms to invest small amounts in early stage companies.
Make Small Business Administration Funding Easier to Access
The SBA has provided early funding for a range of iconic American companies, including Apple, Costco, and Staples. The Jobs Council recommends that the Administration streamline and shorten application processing with published turnaround times, increase the number of full time employees who perform a training or compliance function, expand the overall list of lending partners, and push Congress to fully authorize SBIR and STTR funding for the long term, rather than for short term re-authorizations.
Enhance Commercialization of Federally Funded Research
The government continues to play a crucial role in investing in the basic research that enables America to be the launchpad for new industries. The Jobs Council recommends that the Administration do more to build bridges between researchers and entrepreneurs, so more breakthrough ideas can move out of the labs and into the commercialization phase.
Address Talent Needs by Reducing Student Loan Burden and Accelerating Immigration Reforms
A large number of recent graduates who aspire to work for a start-up or form a new company decide against it because of the pressing burden to repay their student loans. The Jobs Council recommends that the Administration promote Income-Based Repayment Student Loan Programs for the owners or employees of new, entrepreneurial companies. Additionally, we recommend that the Administration speed up the process for making visa decisions so that talented, foreign-born entrepreneurs can form or join startups in the United States.
What the Private Sector Can Do:
Lead the Way in Backing the Next Generation of American Entrepreneurs
Foster Regional Ecosystems of Innovation and Support Growth of Startup Accelerators
There is a significant opportunity to build stronger entrepreneurial ecosystems in regions across the country – and customize each to capitalize on their unique advantages. To that end, the Jobs Council recommends that the private sector support the growth of startup accelerators in at least 30 cities. Private entities should also invest in at least 50 new incubators nationwide, and big corporations should link with startups to advise entrepreneurial companies during their nascent stages.
Expand Programs to Mentor Entrepreneurs
Research consistently shows that a key element of successful enterprises is active mentorship relationships. Yet, if young companies do not have the benefit of being part of an accelerator, they often struggle to find effective mentors to coach them through the challenging, early stages of starting a company. Therefore, the Jobs Council recommends leveraging existing private sector networks to create, expand and strengthen mentorship programs at all levels.
Allow University Faculty to Shop Discoveries to Any Technology Transfer Office
America's universities have produced many of the great breakthroughs that have led to new industries and jobs. But too often, research that could find market success lingers in university labs. The Jobs Council recommends allowing research that is funded with federal dollars to be presented to any university technology transfer office (not just the one where the research has taken place).

Seagate 600 SSD 240GB
Here we get our first look at the Seagate 600 SSD. The black case is unique to the non-Pro model. Seagate put together an attractive design for the consumer market.
The capacity size, model number and serial number are all located on the back of the drive.
We're looking at the 7mm form factor drive today. This package uses standard 2.5" mounting points so it will work in a desktop adapter bracket, case drive sled and standard notebooks. The 7mm z-height design has taken on in the ultrabook market, where it was first designed for.
7mm drives use standard SATA power and data connectors. We've spoke about this for years with the anticipation of 5mm products. It took a little longer than we expected for 5mm to arrive, but 5mm drives do not use standard SATA power and data connectors.
Seagate's 600 and 600 Pro SSD's have an anti-intrusion system. If you ever get your SSD open to this point, you will NOT get it back together and still look the same way. The cover plate, seen here on the right bends easily and locks into place. Seagate warned us not to expect to get a drive back together, and they were right. We did manage to put it back together, but it was obvious the drive had been tampered with.
The case acts as a heatsink for the LAMD controller. This image is from the 600 Pro, but both the 600 and 600 Pro have the same extended area that contacts the LAMD controller.
Here we see the PCB. All of the surface mount components are located on this side of the PCB.
Seagate uses the same LAMD LM87800AA controller found on the Corsair Neutron Series SSD's, but Seagate tuned the programming and firmware. To the right we see the dual Micron DRAM buffers for page data.
Toshiba's new Type C 19nm Toggle flash holds the data. There are eight chips total.
The other side is void of components.

New Delhi: There are hopes in the Indian small Islamic Finance industry that it would grow and expand across the country by developing products even though there is ban on shariah-compliant banking in the secular state. Nonetheless, political and legal obstacles will slow down the progress.
An estimated 177 million Muslims in India, the largest Muslim minority population in the world, are unable to use Islamic banks because laws covering the sector require banking to be based on interest, which is forbidden in Islam.
This policy has persisted since 2005, when the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) set up a committee to study Islamic finance.
"The Reserve Bank's position has been that the current Banking Regulation Act does not permit Islamic banking because interest rate is an important component of banking in India," RBI Governor Duvvuri Subbarao told reporters in October.
Last month, the governor added that some Islamic financial services could be delivered through vehicles other than banks – a comment which is encouraging some firms to look at developing shariah-compliant products outside the banking sector.
"It can be got around not through banking, but other vehicles," Indian media quoted Subbarao as saying.
Shariq Nisar, Director of research and operations at Mumbai-based Taqwaa Advisory and Shariah Investment Solutions (TASIS), an advisory firm, said of Subbarao's statement, "This is a good thing – it is the first time the RBI is saying that Islamic banking is possible through other mechanisms."
"The message is to try out other things," he added.
Because Islamic banks pay depositors based on the returns earned by pooled investment funds, equity and investment-related products might to some extent mimic the operations of Islamic banks and fill the gap left by the ban on them, the products' proponents hope.
Saif Ahmed, Managing Partner at Bangalore-based Infinity Consultants, said, "The RBI's comments will enable a more creative approach to developing Islamic finance in the country, by getting people to critically think through ways they can introduce Islamic finance under the present regulations."
The 2006 Sachar Committee report, commissioned by the state to examine the social, economic and educational conditions of India's Muslim communities, recommended steps be taken to improve Muslims' access to credit, which it called inadequate.
Muslims across all income categories in India are shunning conventional banks because of Islam's ban on interest, said Ahmed. "Access to shariah-compliant credit is the biggest issue, followed by access to shariah-compliant investment options," he said.
The issue of investment options looks easiest to resolve. Some capital market products, regulated by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), are already based on Islamic equity indexes, such as one launched in 2010 by TASIS and the Bombay Stock Exchange; Islamic indexes exclude firms involved in areas forbidden by the religion, such as alcohol and gambling.
In May, SEBI introduced guidelines for alternative investment funds (AIF) which allow the pooling of capital from local and foreign investors.
"We expect shariah-compliant funds to be registered under the AIF regulations," and to invest in permissible assets such as real estate, said H. Jayesh, Founding Partner of Mumbai-based law firm Juris Corp.
Both Infinity and the Bangalore-based Amana Group have developed savings schemes known as chit funds which they say comply with Islamic finance principles. In chit funds, subscribers pool their money; members can then obtain temporary use of the funds through a bidding process.
"Our schemes have been approved by major shariah institutions along with prominent scholars. This can promote Islamic banking in the country more wisely," said Asifullah Khan, Founder and Partner at Amana.

Neutral Regulator� adjusts pH to neutral (pH 7.0) from either a low or high pH and maintains it there. It softens water by precipitating calcium and magnesium while removing any chlorine, chloramine, or ammonia. The use of Neutral Regulator� makes other conditioning unnecessary. To lower pH below 7.0 use Neutral Regulator� with Acid Regulator� (or Discus Buffer�). To raise pH above 7.0 use with Alkaline Regulator�. All of these products will enhance and stabilize the freshwater aquarium environment. Use Fresh Trace� to restore the proper level of trace elements required by thriving, healthy freshwater community fish.

DIY SharePoint 2007 and SharePoint 2010 Content Slider
We found a useful tip for creating a SharePoint content slider based on an Announcements list at "Creating your own Content Slider for SharePoint." The author created his solution after he found that the only list-based content sliders he could find were server licensed products. They admit:
"So being the hack programmer I am, I thought to myself, 'Build your own content slider you dummy.' Surprisingly, it isn't that difficult, even for hacks like myself."
The directions work for both SharePoint 2007 and SharePoint 2010, on both free and server-based products. To create your content slider according to these directions, you will need jQuery, SP Services, jShowOff, Stramit, and CAML Viewer (or U2U CAML Builder). Also, you will need WSS 3.0 or SharePoint 2007, SharePoint Foundations, or SharePoint Server 2010.
The article includes links and sample code, including a full script at the end. We love this type of writeup.
SharePoint workarounds for small items can be great solutions. However, if you need a total search and navigation makeover, look to Smartlogic.

5 Simple Tricks for a Better Relationship
I've already chosen a wedding veil, but it doesn't work with the wedding hairstyle I've decided upon. What do I do?
When considering wedding hairstyle and veil options brides often ask this question: which comes first, the hairstyle or the wedding veil? Many dresses are sold with a matching veil -- usually the wedding veil highlights details of the wedding dress. What you need to do is find a headpiece (comb, small tiara, headband, floral wreath, etc.) that complements your hairstyle, and work on attaching to it the veil you already have. Talk to a salesperson at the shop where you bought the veil; she may be able to reconfigure what you've bought so you won't have to start from scratch.

I need help! remodeling a room
almost finished but we just realized that 1 door frame is warped on the side where the knob is. it bows out in the center so the door knob bolt won't hit the striker plate. its too late to redo it, so does anyone know if any companies make an extra long (maybe 3/ 8 longer than normal) bolt? or spacers for the strike plate? I could make a spacer, but I thought maybe someone might make one a little prettier than I could make LOL. I would very much prefer a long bolt as it wouldn't be noticeable like a spaced out plate. I've looked around and can't find anything, I hope someone here can help. thanks! can you make the bolt from a deadbolt work with a regular knob? if so that would be OK, it's just a closet door. |

Why not just pull off the trim and shim the jamb so that it's flat? |
nobody makes something like that because nobody would do that. and i agree with mike its the easiest fix. if you have 2 3/8 back set and get 2 3/4 backset bolt and try to get it to work but it still would look like ?hit. |

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 Gabby!
Facts about Gabby
- Breed: American Bulldog
- Color: White - With Black
- Age: Young
- Size: X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more
- Sex: Female
Gabby's Info...
I am already spayed, purebred, a special needs pet, in need of an experienced adopter, up to date with shots, not good with kids, not good with dogs, and not good with cats.
**Courtesy Posting** Gabby - 12 months AM Bulldog - neglected
backyard dog dumped at pound, pulled right before being euthanized.. Up to date on shots,
spayed and microchipped - adoption fee $350.00. Gabby may have neurological issues and we are waiting to have lab tests done on her bloodwork. Gabby will need an experienced dog handler as this girl is pushy and dominant. With consistency and a good pack leader, she has the potential to be a great dog. She will come with 4 weeks of training at our Riverside, CA location, and lifelong training advice!

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Gabby, a Moreno Valley American Bulldog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Bulldog for sale in Moreno Valley, or seeking a American Bulldog dog from a breeder in Moreno Valley.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Moreno Valley 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 Moreno Valley 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 American Bulldog breeders who help with American Bulldog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Moreno Valley paves the way for another one to be saved.

gq: How weird is it to retire at 36? You've still got maybe fifty or sixty years to fill.
michael strahan: Well, I hope so. It's a little scary when you think about it. What am I going to be doing five years from now? Am I going to be relevant? I'm used to being relevant in one way or another. On the other hand, I've had a hell of a career and a hell of a life, to the point where if I were to sit back and do absolutely nothing… I mean, hey, man… [shrugs]
Did you ever have any second thoughts?
Nah. I see guys retire, and they're up at their press conferences crying. If you're crying like that, maybe it's not time. Me, I felt like there was a weight off my shoulders. If you could have seen what was going on in my head at that podium, it was banners and floats and balloons and clowns.
How much of the decision had to do with finally
winning the Super Bowl?
If we hadn't won, I still probably would have retired, but I would have thought more about it. Since we did win, there was really nothing left for me to do. I feel like there's value to leaving when I still have the ability to play, to be one of the best.
I have a couple of questions about the playoffs and Super Bowl. Like, how did that happen?
We were lucky as hell. Very lucky. Except for Tampa, we'd been beaten [in the regular season] by every team we played in the playoffs—one of them twice. We had to win every game on the road. We played the Patriots in the last game of the season.…
There was a lot of controversy before that game about whether you should play your starters. Why was that meaningless game so important?
If we hadn't played them hard during the regular season, I don't think the results would have been the same later. After that game, we went from a feeling of "We hope we win" to "We expect to win." It's not a big shift, just a little adjustment of your mind.
Before the season, you refused to report to training camp. What was that about? Money?
In a lot of ways, training camp is obsolete. You don't need to be in upstate New York for a month. As a veteran, it sucks, because, man, I have kids about the age of the rookies. I'm supposed to be back in my dorm room every night at eleven o'clock? I have to sit in meetings and hear the same thing I've been hearing for fifteen years? There have been times when I've sat in a meeting, and the coach is talking, and I just want to get up and scream, just to shock the hell out of him. And the physical toll it takes on your body… You're beating your body up before it counts.
What did you put in your body to get through a season?
Anti-inflammatories. Every day of the week, just so I could get up and walk. You know what it feels like to be in your twenties and somebody has to put your shoes and socks on for you?
Let's talk about your old coach, Tom Coughlin. It seems like you would have hated each other.
At first we really butted heads, to the point that I thought if I made it through that first year, I'd never play for him again. Then we got to the point last season where I said I'd never play for another coach.
How did that happen?
We both changed. When he came in, you could never be comfortable. You felt like you had General Patton looking over your shoulder. It was like he was trying to catch you at something. Now he's like the ugly frog that got kissed by a chick and turned into a prince. He respects the players, and he has fun. You can tell in his face that he genuinely loves football and loves the players. Before, you didn't know if he cared about you at all.
And how did you change?
I would listen to this song by Coldplay, which is one of my favorite bands. One of the lyrics is something like You're either part of the problem or part of the solution. I said, I'll be part of the solution. I stopped caring about his idiosyncrasies and his craziness and started enjoying playing football. So Chris Martin changed my life forever.
Did you ever reach a point where you felt like Eli Manning was a leader on that team?
Have I ever felt like Eli was my leader? No. But the thing I love about Eli is that he's not going to say much; he's not going to jump up and down like I do. But he's always going to be prepared, lead by example. Eli's personality is probably the best thing he has going for him; he's like, "Oh shucks, I don't really know what's going on, and I don't care." In this city, you almost need that.
Did you ever wish you had been a little more like that?
No. I'm perfect how I am.
All right, let me put it another way.…
To be honest, I don't regret anything as far as dealing with the media. I understand that they were trying to do their job, and that their job is to sell papers, and that the best way to sell papers is to create controversies. The only time I think the media was unfair with me was about my divorce.

Halle Berry will be OK, folks.
The Dark Tide star, who suffered a fall on the set of her new movie, The Hive, last night, is expected to make a full recovery. Halle's rep tells TMZ that although the Oscar winner had to be taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, her injury wasn't serious.
"Halle Berry suffered a minor head injury while shooting a fight sequence on the set of her film The Hive," says her rep to TMZ. "She was taken to the hospital as a precaution, but she checked out healthy and was released. She'll continue production as planned."
Phew... Good to hear Halle will be just fine, but one question remains: What exactly caused the 45-year-old to fall?
Well, sources on the movie set tell the entertainment website that Halle hit her head on the concrete after falling, and that "she started throwing up" shortly after the accident, which prompted an ambulance to be called to the scene and transport her to the hospital late yesterday night.
We hope Halle feels better and that whatever made her trip and fall is investigated and fixed for the safety of everybody on the set.

While Japanese RPGs aren't every gamer's favored time-sink, fans of the genre are constantly on the lookout for new franchises and titles to dive into. Kemco has been a steady source of older JRPGs on Android, many of them obscure PSX ports that have been translated and reworked with touch controls. The reception to most of these games has been very positive generally, so if you're at all interested in trying them out, today's the day to do it - Kemco's entire library of games are just a dollar each through April 29th.
Kemco Games, the team behind a slew of popular role-playing games for Android, has introduced the English version of Aeon Avenger today, bringing to market an impressively polished time-travelling RPG. Like Kemco's other RPGs, Aeon Avenger features gameplay reminiscent of old Final Fantasy adventures, and delivers a "story of revenge through time and space."
Aeon's story follows a young man named Lake, whose rural home town is attacked by "the man in black," who also murdered Lake's parents.

i had a two week vacation in puerto rico and it was absolutely fantastic. traveled the entire island. the islands you speak of are culebra and viacez (sp?) culebra is a great place it has a beach there, flaminco beach that is picturesque caribbean white sand clear water beach. The best part is its a national park so it has no ugly high rise hotels. it has a romantic little hotel off to the side with great service beach side service too. if you like lazy days on the beach this is the spot for you, don't be afraid if you don't know spanish (though it helps) the people are very friendly. Its actually a national park, so you must be mindful of things like littering... don't forget your hamocks there are lots of coconut trees... viacez is very nice too with nice beaches. mainland puerto rico has beautiful countryside, i traveled to every park area including el yunca (sp?) national park, the only tropical rain forest in the national park system, if you are able bodied and like hiking there are some fantastic views hidden streams flora/fauna to be seen... camping out in the rain forest was one of the best experiences i've ever had (no poisonous snakes on the island don't worry) nothing like picking your own mango's banana's and grapefruits for breakfast, i went in december and the hi's were around 85 low's around 65 at night, perfect... check out the bioluminescent caves, the natural hot springs are great (city?) stayed in the national park in the mountains where you get incredibly deferent scenery. ricon on the west coast is a famous surfing town mentioned in a beach boys song... you can rent furnished apartments per day... you run into all kinds of international travelers too oh don't forget to see aricebo observatory. i spent zero time in san juan (capitol) its pretty slummy from what i saw while traveling out of it. peurto rico is like its own continent. oh the beer there can only be sold in 10 oz cans, try the medallo! its great! |

AGENCY | Texas Commission on Environmental Quality |
ACTION | Miscellaneous |
Notice of Public Meeting to Propose Hicks Field Sewer Corporation for Listing on the Texas Superfund Registry and to Propose Non-Residential Land Use The Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission (commission) is required under the Texas Solid Waste Disposal Act, Texas Health and Safety Code, Chapter 361, as amended (the Act), to annually publish a state registry that identifies facilities that may constitute an imminent and substantial endangerment to public health and safety or the environment due to a release or threatened release of hazardous substances into the environment. The most recent registry listing of these facilities was published in the May 24, 2002, issue of the Texas Register (27 TexReg 4633). In accordance with the Act, §361.184 (a), the commission must publish a notice of intent to list a facility on the state registry of state Superfund sites in the Texas Register and in a newspaper of general circulation in the county in which the facility is located. With this publication, the commission hereby gives notice of a facility or area that the executive director has determined eligible for listing, and which the executive director proposes to list on the state registry. By this publication, the commission also gives notice in accordance with the Act, §361.1855, that it proposes a land use other than residential as appropriate for the facility identified later in this notice. The commission proposes a commercial/industrial land use designation. Determination of appropriate land use may impact the remedial investigation and remedial action for the site. This publication also specifies the general nature of the potential endangerment to public health and safety or the environment as determined by information currently available to the executive director. This notice of intent to list this facility was also published on July 18, 2002, in the Northwest Tarrant County Times-Record. The facility proposed for listing is the Hicks Field Sewer Corporation, located southwest of Big Fossil Creek, approximately 1.8 miles west of the intersection of U. S. Highway 81-287 and Farm to Market Road 156. The geographic coordinates of the site are 32 degrees 54 minutes 19.70 seconds North, and 97 degrees 23 minutes 22.45 seconds West. The site is located approximately 2.5 miles northwest of Saginaw, Tarrant County, Texas. The property consists of 12.02 acres and is primarily surrounded by agriculture with the land used for grazing and farmland. The nearest residence is located approximately 0.5 miles to the southwest along Business Route 287. The facility is currently inactive and abandoned. The Hicks Field Sewer Corporation site operated from the early 1970's to mid-1994, providing sewage treatment services for the nearby industrial park. The majority of wastes treated at the plant were domestic; however, a metal finishing industry discharged pretreated process rinse waters containing heavy metals from the early 1970's until the metal finishing operations ceased in early 1981. Inspections of the plant by the Texas Water Quality Board, the Texas Water Commission, and the commission indicated elevated levels of aluminum, antimony, barium, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, iron, lead, magnesium, manganese, mercury, nickel, silver, sodium, zinc, and cyanide remain in the soil and sludge at the site. The inspections also indicated releases (i.e., greater than three times the highest applicable background value) of cadmium, chromium, and copper in sediments downstream of the site. This includes a release of cadmium to two downstream in-water segment wetland areas located along the shoreline of Walnut Lake, which is also used as a private fishery. A public meeting will be held Thursday, August 22, 2002, at 7:00 p.m., in Saginaw City Hall Council Chambers, 333 West McLeroy Blvd., in Saginaw, Texas. The purpose of this meeting is to obtain additional information regarding the site relative to its eligibility for listing on the state registry, identify additional potentially responsible parties, and obtain public input and information regarding the appropriate use of land on which the facility subject of this notice is located. The public meeting will be legislative in nature and not a contested case hearing under the Texas Administrative Procedure Act (Texas Government Code, Chapter 2001). All persons desiring to make comments may do so prior to or at the public meeting. All comments submitted prior to the public meeting must be received by 5:00 p.m., August 22, 2002, and should be sent in writing to Mr. Dan Switek, Superfund Cleanup Section, Remediation Division, Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission, MC 143, P.O. Box 13087, Austin, TX 78711-3087 or facsimile at (512) 239-2450. The public comment period for this action will end at the close of the public meeting on August 22, 2002. A portion of the record for this site, including documents pertinent to the executive director's determination of eligibility, is available for review at the Saginaw Library, 355 West McLeroy Blvd., Saginaw, Texas, telephone (817) 232-2100, during regular business hours. Copies of the complete public record file may be obtained during regular business hours at the commission's Records Management Center, Building E, First Floor, 12100 Park 35 Circle, Austin, Texas 78753; telephone numbers (800) 633-9363 or (512) 239-2920. Photocopying of file information is subject to payment of a fee. Handicapped parking is available on the east side of Building D, convenient to access ramps that are between Buildings D and E.

Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma is the most common form of skin cancer. This cancer usually grows slowly and rarely spreads to other tissues in the body.
Basal cell carcinoma is rarely fatal but it can cause damage to the nearby tissue. If there is risk of damage, the cancer may need treatment or removal.
Basal Cell Carcinoma
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Cancer occurs when cells in the body divide without control or order. Eventually these uncontrolled cells form a growth or tumor. The growths invade and take over nearby tissue. It is not clear exactly what causes these problems in the cells but is probably a combination of genetics and environment.

Best Part: I'll Give You Personal Attention So You're Not Scratching Your Head Wondering What To Do Next!
Dear Aspiring Comedian,
You may not know it, but if you're trying to become a stand up comedian and have been following what "everyone else" teaches you…
…then you're being set up to FAIL!
I know…I know, that seems like a strong statement. And I know you're pretty skeptical right now. But I urge you to suspend your skepticism and keep reading.
You see, when you implement what I'm going to tell you in this short message, you'll achieve the following results when it comes to your stand-up:

- You'll generate a HUGE fan base with fans that are passionate about spreading your comedy to THEIR friends

- You will gain the motivation, momentum, and confidence you need to succeed!
And if you ignore this message…
You'll End Up With Wasted Time, Less Money In Your Bank Account, And More Frustration, Doubt And Motivation About Your Stand-Up Career!
Hi, my name is Jared Volle. I have been a stand up comedian for the past 8 years and actually practice what I preach when it comes to being a killer stand-up comedian.
I was a finalist at the Great American Comedy Festival and even an opener for comedian Kyle Cease (voted #1 Comedy Central special of 2009) many times… performing in front of over 1000 people!
And while struggling to make it as a stand-up comedian (more on that later) I stumbled upon one astonishing secret that is currently holding YOU back as a killer stand-up comedian:
You're relying too much on rules, formulas, "tricks" and "systems" for generating content. And all that is stifling your ability to differentiate yourself from the pack and garner the fame, recognition and reverence as a stand-up comedian you deserve!
Listen: if you go to the top 3 comedians…heck almost ALL the comedians on the Comedy Central Top 100 list, they didn't use conventional techniques to get there.
They didn't just tell "your momma" jokes…"you might be a redneck if…" jokes or "blonde" jokes.
They embraced a higher level of creativity and "outside the box" thinking that allowed them to stand above their competition. That's why they're on the top 100 list!
Yet I'm sure you either learned from another comedian or from books and courses from "old school" guys that taught how to use formulas and "systems" to create jokes…
…Like a bunch of "write a setup line, think of all the assumptions the audience would make, and then BREAK that assumption in the punch line" tricks.
Or the "write 50 jokes a day using formulas" approach that'll bore the CRAP out of today's audience.
Sorry, but that stuff ain't gonna work for today's more sophisticated audience. It's like trying to sell a rotary phone to someone that has an iPhone 5….it just aint' gonna fly!
So if you feel like your comedy career has flatlined and you're looking for a boost, then I'm here to tell you that I know how you feel. Why? Because:
My Start As A Stand Up Comedian Was More Frustrating Than A One Legged Man At A Butt-Kicking Contest!
I remember it like it was yesterday. I started doing improv comedy when I was in 6th grade and actually started getting paid for my improv gigs before graduating high school.
So I decided to try my hand at stand up comedy since I was really racking up the stage time. I figured it would be an easy transition right?
I stuck with the formulas being taught by the "masters" in tons of comedy books, courses and seminars.
I'd blow 2-3 hours reading a comedy book expecting to get some new "tricks" but it was either just theory about what SHOULD get a laugh…but not what works now.
And it started to show. I started struggling big time and started getting frustrated with the results I was getting on stage. I NEVER had problems with my improv but for some reason I wasn't cutting it when it came to stand up comedy.
After awhile I started to lose my patience and started to doubt whether I had the "stuff" to be a successful stand up comedian. My confidence started to sink and I became a little paranoid of whom to trust for advice.
And as a result…
The Further My Confidence Sank,
The More I Started To BOMB At Gigs!
But then I realized why I was screwing up so much. I was following "old school" rules and formulas that no longer worked for today's savvy audience.
I mean, I was a naturally funny guy and I was STILL bombing! That's when I realized it wasn't about the jokes…it was about ME…the comedian!
Let me prove it to you:
First, watch a hilarious snippet of a comedian. Something that made you laugh the first time you heard it so you'll know you're starting off with a funny joke.
Next, mentally play around with the way those same exact words are delivered. In fact, BUTCHER the jokes on purpose.
You will instantly see that it's not the actual words that you find funny. There's something deeper that old-school comedy completely misses (and pretending it's not there can destroy ANY hope of success).
Or take a very common occurrence. Remember the last time you heard a friend butcher a joke you KNEW was actually funny?
So what happened?
Both jokes used the same words. One was funny. The other clearly wasn't.
How can that be? … Because it was never the actual words you found funny in the first place.
And old-school comedy is ONLY about words. Old-school comedy simply doesn't work. That's why the BEST comedians have found a better way…guys like Richard Pryor, Steve Martin, Lenny Bruce and all the greats.
So I decided to throw out the rules and create something novel for a change. Stuff that allows you to generate so much material…and higher QUALITY material…that'll set you apart from the pack.
Listen: this ain't the 50's anymore. Today's audience is much more savvy than that. That's something I painfully realized but I'm glad I figured it out while I was young.
My results were like night and day. Audience were howling at my material and within a month I already exceeded my all-time best (and I've been writing for years!)
I beat out other comedians who were using this old school "cookie cutter" formulaic approach and eventually became a HUGE hit within a year:
In fact,
I Started Opening Up For Kyle Cease (10 Things I Hate About You)… In Front Of More Than 1000 People!
Then I decided there had to be a way to "systematize" this novel system so I can teach other people. I started teaching this stuff in offline classes and it was a HUGE hit! Almost every single class was SOLD OUT!Writer's block was essentially demolished, and these comedians started to report that their writing had improved and appeared less formulaic.They were getting more laughs on stage. More paid gigs. More confidence in their prospects of becoming killer stand-up comedians. And more CERTAINTY that they were going to succeed…instead of practicing the "hope and pray" approach to making it in the biz. |
So I decided to bottle up everything I know about becoming a more creative, funnier comedian using lessons discovered by studying the greats AND my own 8-year track record as a stand-up comedian:
The Faster & Funnier
Stand-Up Comedy Course
The Only PROVEN, Non-"Cookie-Cutter" Stand Up Comedy Course That Teaches You What Works For Today's Savvy Audiences!
Faster & Funnier is a course that'll teach you a novel approach to getting laughs that's vastly different from those "formulas" and "systems" you've probably read about in books and courses.
Learning stand-up comedy doesn't get any easier. Simply follow the Faster & Funnier Video Course and you'll discover every tool you need to master stand-up comedy quickly and easily.
Not only will you receive a 300+ page comprehensive guide to writing, performing, and getting paid in stand-up, but I also include over 11 hours of videos to supplement your learning.
Listen: if you're the type of person that likes to see and hear a teacher speak rather than just read through a book then this is for you. You get the best of both worlds.
The ability to SEE and HEAR a teacher explaining how to write and perform stand-up comedy as well as a 300+ page guide that's yours to keep and refer back to as many times as you want.
That's why:
Faster And Funnier Is The ONLY Stand-Up
Video Course That'll Effortlessly Guide You Toward Being A HUGE Hit On Stage!
I was getting REAL results when I started implementing this new way of performing. Since discovering this new "secret" practiced by the greats I haven't written a single "conventional" joke.
In fact, my closer went from 32% laughter (not too shabby by the way) to a staggering 69% laughter. And this closer consistently gets 2 or more applause breaks every time…
…and this closer is several minutes long!
Just think about what you can do with material that strong:
- You'll gain instant respect from other comics that will immediately cement your position in the comedy community. It's all about who you know when it comes to comedy…and this will position you above the rest.
- You'll get FAR more bookings. Once people know you've got the "stuff"…word spreads like wildfire. And when you really blow it up at a gig, they'll want you to come back again and again.
- You'll get MORE MONEY for each booking. The higher the demand for you increases, the more you'll be able to charge per booking. It's like a snowball going down a snowy mountain…it just gets bigger, bigger, and BIGGER!
- You'll be able to develop a large fan base. This is "money" for a comedy career…people who will keep going to your gigs, brag about you, invite their friends, and keep buying your comedy CDs and DVDs.
- You'll boost your chances of getting the call for BIG shows. Remember when I said I was an opener for Kyle Cease (10 Things I Hate About You, #1 Comedy Central Special of 2009)… doing gigs in front of 1000 people? I got that opportunity by standing out from the crowd thanks to what I'm going to share with you in Faster & Funnier!
In fact,
Some Of My Students Got Paying Gigs Less Than 2 Weeks After Going Through This Material!
This stuff works FAST. In fact my past students have won local and regional competitions within months of finishing the class. They've produced highly successful shows that draw national headliners, HUGE crowds, and they actually get PAID to have fun!
And they also work with every single type of comedian including:
- 1-liners and storyteller comedians
- Observational and experience-based comedians
- Monotone, improvisational, political… it doesn't matter!
Imagine getting more paid gigs and earning respect from other comedians…especially the ones you look up to. And think about the feeling you'll get when you're getting HUGE laughs and the confidence and POWER that will give you.
And think about what it would be like to NEVER have to suffer from "writer's block" ever again. I know the agony of staring at a blank piece of paper or computer screen…struggling…wondering what to write next.
This is stuff I wish I had when I started out. Believe me, it really SUCKED having to figure this out myself but I'm glad I did. And now I want you give YOU a chance to be on this side of the fence with me!

So How Much Is It Worth To You
To Annihilate YEARS Of Trial And Error, Bombed Gigs And Extreme Embarrassment And Humiliation?
I know what you want: you want to be a successful and FUNNY stand up comedian in the shortest amount of time. And no other course teaches you what it takes to get today's audience to laugh all the way to the bank!
When you take action today and order Faster & Funnier you're going to be STUNNED. You'll get FULL training on writing, performing, and getting paid in stand-up comedy.
I explain not just "how" to do it, but how and why every element of a performance works and how they work together to create massive success!
I'm going to hand you the power to control every aspect of your stand-up comedy career using this fast, simple, & tested system.
In fact, Faster & Funnier will…
- Save You YEARS Of Trial And Error: It takes YEARS to acquire this information alone. How much time would you have wasted driving to and from shows, rewriting your material over and over and over as you slowly gain an understanding of what works and what doesn't? Why spend more time as an amateur than you have to?
- Save You A TON Of Money: How much gas money would you spend just DRIVING to these shows?! Over the course of a single year gas money alone could be hundreds of dollars! Wouldn't you rather use that money driving to PAID GIGS?
- Save You Endless Frustration: How many jokes would you have to bomb on stage to gain this knowledge? How many opportunities will you miss out on because you were stuck in an endless cycle of rewriting your material?
- Save You TONS Of Energy: Revising your material is exhausting if you don't know what you're looking for, endlessly writing and rewriting only to find your no closer to a decent laugh. How much more fun would it be if you had a deep understanding of exactly what the audience was looking for?
I know for a fact that I would have paid THOUSANDS of dollars to discover this stuff 8 years ago when I was trying to break into stand-up comedy.
Not just money, but also TIME it would have saved me…along with the humiliation I wouldn't have to endure at all those "dud" gigs where I couldn't get a laugh to save my life.
Well, I'm not going to charge you $1000…not even $300 which is the going rate for most comedy courses out there.
When you take action right now I'm going to let you get Faster & Funnier for just $99.
Think about it…that's a months worth of Starbucks latte's, a week or two worth of gas, or your monthly cellphone bill. In fact,
The Price Is Irrelevant Since Faster & Funnier Will Save You From Repeatedly BOMBING On Stage And Slowly Learning From Every Single Mistake!
Think about it: you can either learn this stuff the PAINFUL way like I did early in my career. Or you can save yourself YEARS of "figuring it out" yourself by taking advantage of this opportunity to have everything laid out for you on a silver platter…
…how to be more creative, get paid gigs, write jokes that are a step above the rest, and have more FUN.
Yes, I know the price is ridiculously low, especially when stand-up comedy teachers are charging $100-$200/hr for private tutoring, and you couldn't possibly learn even 5% as much information in a single hour.
Thanks to the Internet we can provide quality personal coaching on our comedy courses for a tiny fraction of the price you'd pay anywhere else.
Plus I really want you to succeed! That's why I'm spending my time writing this letter…creating this course…and am offering you personal attention by answering any question you have that's not in the library by creating a bonus video for you.
Sure I could have kept these secrets myself, but I guess this is my way of giving back. But I'm not going to stop there:
Here Are 5 Bonuses That Are Worth More Than The Entire Faster & Funnier Program Itself!
Bonus #1 (Worth $39.99)
Bonus #2 (Worth $39.99)
Bonus #3 (Worth $39.99)
Bonus #4 (Worth $39.99)

Bonus #5 (Worth $99.99)

So Are You Going To Keep Using The Same Ol'

…or are you going to stay ahead of the curve and discover the secret the top 100 comedians use to write their material, perform, and get their audiences to stick with them and LOVE them for life.
Listen: Each generation of comedians has raised the bar for the next. What worked in the past no longer will "wow" an audience.
You need a new system that will set you apart from the pack and will allow you to constantly generate BOATLOADS of dynamite material.
It's a "dog-eat-dog" world out there. There are tons of comedians who are vying for the same gigs. And the ones who will always win out are the ones who eschew conventional thinking when it comes to comedy.
Like Richard Pryor once said, "I know all the tricks. I assume everybody does. But people like me because I won't use them and if I do, they can tell".
Don't be "that guy" that just uses cheesy formulas and "systems" for creating jokes your audience will recognize. You're better than that…so take action and claim your instant access to Faster & Funnier today!

Product details
PI News: Piezo-Z Objective Nanostepping Drive Systems for Fast 3D Microscopy are Easily Integrated Mar 6, 2008
A series of high-speed microscopy objective Z-scanner systems for 3-D microscopy applications provides 10 to 20 times faster settling than conventional stepper z-motors.
PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P., a leading manufacturer of nanopositioning and precision motion-control equipment for life science, photonics and semiconductor applications, offers a series of high-speed microscopy objective scanner systems for 3-D microscopy applications.
Systems Contain Driver, Mechanics & all Adapters
PIFOC® piezo Z-drives systems are designed for easy integration into high-resolution microscopes. They are available as components or as complete systems including the piezo objective scanner, a controller and two distance cases.
Z-stack Image Acquisition: How it Works
The PIFOC® units are ideal for high speed Z-stack image acquisition, the basis for the generation of 3-D views of samples in high-resolution, optical microscopes. Conventional Z-drives use a motorized actuator and motor controller to create numerous focus planes during focusing. The individual "slices" are then processed with special software to form one 3-D image. PIFOC® systems are compatible with all major image acquisition packages.
Faster with Piezo
Piezo-actuated Z-drives, achieve significantly higher focusing speed (typically 10 msec vs. 200 msec) and resolution (typically 1 nm vs. 100 nm) than stepper motor-drives and thus provide higher-quality images in less time.
Scanning the Objective
The compact, light and stiff objective scanner design provides very fast response and does not disturb the sample which can be a problem with specimen scanners.
Application Examples
3D imaging, autofocusing, scanning and alignment tasks in microscopy, biotechnology, optics, semiconductor technology and photonic packaging.
Features & Advantages
Choice of Controllers: Display Controller or Compact Controller

I have a ton of corks (used) - some are the plasticy modern kind, some are the old fashioned cork (or some other non-synthetic) all of various sizes, vintages, varieties, etc. Seems like there should be some good use for these!!! Anyone collect them/craft with them/want them?? Just say the word! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I think anyone in this forum probably has a ton of corks saved. Heh-he-he. Maybe try calling a school or scout troop and ask if they want them? |
Or check on one of the crafters forums...like trash to treasure. Linda C |
I throw the natural cork ones into my compost heap. It's kinda fun to keep running across them over the years as I work in various parts of the garden. Susan |
I bet folks on the orchid growers forum would be delighted to get them. |
If you still have the corks I would love them |

Why Adoption is a Great Option
anna, a Brattleboro Labrador Retriever dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever for sale in Brattleboro, or seeking a Labrador Retriever dog from a breeder in Brattleboro.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Brattleboro 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 Brattleboro 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 Labrador Retriever breeders who help with Labrador Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Brattleboro paves the way for another one to be saved.
