Looks like you are describing the activity per the court website. Your spouse filed for divorce. You filed a response. You entered into some kind of agreement and agreed that it may proceed by default. The court received the judgment package. No decision on it yet. Too early to panic. The court will take weeks before it process the default package assuming it is correct.
Most courts take approximately 6-8 weeks to review and approve/reject the judgment documents. Your paperwork is in the window. It is possible for the court to get to it sooner, but this is what the clerks are projecting. You will receive notice once the judgment is approved or rejected. That notice, assuming the judgment is approved, will give you your effective date of divorce. Until such time, you are still married. If your judgment is rejected, you will receive the documents back (or the Petitioner will) along with a rejection form that explains the deficiency/ies. Those will have to be corrected, re-filed (along with the rejection form) and you will again await approval or further rejection.
I hope this is helpful.
It appears that you or your spouse are in the final stage of completing the dissolution of marriage process. It also appears that a Judgment package was submitted in May 2012 and that they got around to processing it on August 7, 2012. What concerns me is that they didn't enter the Judgment, which can mean one of three things:
(1) they haven't finished reviewing the Judgment,
(2) there is a problem with the Judgment that was submitted and they will send you a rejection notice telling you what needs to be fixed, or
(3) the court is in the process of setting a hearing to enter the Judgment. If the court sets a hearing date don't be alarmed. Usually when this happens the court just wants to make sure that both parties understand the Stipulation they have entered into.
Either way you should be receiving something within the next two weeks letting you know the status. If you do not hear from the court I would suggest calling the clerks office.
Please note that until you receive the Notice of Entry of Judgment and the Judgment indicating the dissolution date you are still married.
Divorce is the process of formally ending a marriage. Divorces may be jointly agreed upon, resolved by negotiation, or decided in court.

Physical Description
Diagnostic Description
Berberis canadensis is distinguished by having a raceme of 5-10 flowers with notched yellow petals (Gleason and Cronquist 1991).
Comments: Berberis canadensis occurs in open woods, on bluffs and cliffs and along river banks in the eastern and central United States (Gleason and Cronquist 1991, Cook et al. 1987, Fernald 1970, Small 1933). Formerly an inhabitant of savannas and open woodlands, fire suppression has significantly restricted its habitat to sites with shallow soil (such as glades and cliffs) or areas with mowing or other canopy-clearing activities (such as powerline corridors, railroad/road right-of-ways and riverbanks).
The single extant population from Indiana is restricted to steep banks along the Tippecanoe River in the northern part of the state (Homoya 1992). Associated plant species include Besseya bullii, Lithospermum sp. and liverworts (Indiana Natural Heritage Data Center 1989). Prior to eradication efforts, Deam (1940) observed long stretches of the species along the banks of the Tippecanoe River, occupying an area "a few feet back from the edge of the bank and down the slope to high water mark".
Historically, B. canadensis occurred in Maryland in dry, calcareous woodlands, open fields and serpentine barrens (Maryland Natural Heritage Program 1992). No extant populations are known in the state.
In Missouri, B. canadensis is typically found on north-facing, rocky, wooded slopes; along streams; upper ledges or bluffs; exposed upper portions of bluffs on limestone, dolomite or sandstone; and mesic limestone/dolomite cliffs (Smith 1992, Roedner et al. 1978, Holt et al. 1974, University of Minnesota Herbarium (MIN)). Substrate composition usually consists of limestone, dolomite or sandstone with a somewhat basic pH (Smith 1993). Steyermark (1963) stated that the plant appears to be restricted to the edges of limestone bluffs where the soil is leached out, or near the contact point between chert or Roubidoux sandstone with limestone. Associated plant species in Missouri include Campanula rotundifolia, Carpinus caroliniana, Galium boreale ssp. septentrionale, Trautvetteria caroliniensis and Zigadenus elegans (Smith 1992, Steyermark 1963).
Berberis canadensis is found in 19 mountain counties in southwest Virginia (Huber 1993). Occupied habitat includes dry, open woodlands over limestone, dolomite, richer sandstone or shale substrates, rocky and cliffy areas and open areas and glades with naturally thin soil (Ludwig 1993, Ludwig 1992). Associated plant species in glades include Helianthus divaricatus, Juniperus virginiana and Schizachyrium scoparium. In rocky areas it is found with Cercis canadensis, Pellaea atropurpurea and Quercus muehlenbergii (Ludwig 1993).
Two historic populations are known from Georgia, but no recent efforts have been made to relocate them (Patrick 1989). Occupied habitat is described as dry, hard soil on upper, west-facing slopes and dry, rocky woods (Georgia Freshwater and Wetlands Heritage Inventory 1989).
In North Carolina, B. canadensis occurs in the Piedmont on mafic rocks (such as diabase, amphibolite and gabbro) and in the Blue Ridge on calcareous (limestone, dolomite, marble) and mafic rocks (amphibolite). It generally occurs in glade, open woodland, bluff or cliff situations (North Carolina Natural Heritage 1993, Weakley 1993, University of Minnesota Herbarium (MIN)). The species was historically found in fire-maintained habitats which kept the canopy open, but is now restricted to sites with very shallow soil or with mowing maintenance (right-of-ways, powerline corridors, etc.). Due to its association with mafic and calcareous rocks (uncommon to rare in the state), B. canadensis is often associated with other rare species. Typical associated plant species include Aquilegia canadensis, Cercis canadensis, Clematis ochroleuca, Desmodium spp., Echinacea laevigata, Matelea decipiens, Parthenium auriculatum, Pycnanthemum spp., Rhus aromatica, Silphium trifoliatum, Solidago rigida, Symphoricarpos orbiculatus and Viburnum rafinesquianum (North Carolina Natural Heritage 1993, Weakley 1993).
In Illinois, B. canadensis is known from a single extant site at the rim of a dry sandstone cliff (Illinois Natural Heritage Division 1992). No extant populations are known from the state (Schwegman 1989). Historic populations occurred on the rim of dry sandstone cliffs and in dry woodlands (Illinois Natural Heritage Division 1992, Mohlenbrock 1975).
No extant populations are known from Kentucky (Kentucky Natural Heritage Program 1993). Historic habitat is listed as limestone woodlands.
Berberis canadensis is known from Pennsylvania by one historic occurrence in the western portion of the state (Pennsylvania Natural Diversity Inventory-West 1993, Kunsman 1992). Habitat for the occurrence was listed as "woods and waste places around abandoned buildings" and "rocky woods" (Pennsylvania Natural Diversity Inventory-West 1993). There is some speculation whether the occurrence was native or was introduced to the site (Kunsman 1992).
Collections at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville Herbarium (TENN) suggest that occupied habitat is relatively open woodlands (Pyne 1994). Collections have been made from wooded slopes, shale slopes, bluffs, terraces along river bluffs and river banks.
Known Pests: American barberry and most other barberries are alternate hosts for wheat rust (Puccinia graminis), a fungus that has caused major losses in certain grain crops here and in Europe (Hill 2003).

Reasons: There are approximately 50 occurrences known across its range. (Insufficient inventory, particularly in Virginia and South Carolina, may cloud its true abundance.) However, most populations are small and have little reproduction. Further, Berberis canadensis is very threatened range-wide as it is still targeted for eradication by agricultural officials.
Global Short Term Trend: Decline of 10-30%
Comments: The species has declined significantly since settlement due to habitat destruction and eradication efforts. Loss of the natural fire regime and continued eradication efforts suggest that the downward trend is continuing.
Comments: Berberis canadensis (and the majority of barberries) is an alternate host for the black stem rust of wheat, oats, rye barley, and various wild and cultivated grasses (Weakley 1993, Steffey 1985, Rudolf 1974, Steyermark 1963). The U.S. Department of Agriculture and state agriculture offices initiated a comprehensive barberry eradication program in the past to elimiate black stem rust. As a result, numerous populations of this species were destroyed (Weakley 1993, Wiegman 1993, Homoya 1992, Steyermark 1963).
Loss of primary habitat has also played a significant role in the demise of this species. The elimination of the natural fire regime has resulted in the succession of savanna and open woodland habitats into closed-canopy woodlands. Only in sites with extremely shallow soils or areas that are frequently mowed or cleared does B. canadensis persist in any significant populations. Since settlement, much of the available habitat has been destroyed, converted to cultivated fields, land development, and urbanization (Weakley 1993). These threats remain for extant populations.
Grazing is a potential threat to extant populations (Smith 1992, Ludwig 1993). Grazing may serve to maintain the open character of woodlands, but its effects on B. canadensis plants are unknown. In some areas, the plants appear to be grazed by cattle (Smith 1992). Soil compaction and disturbance may negatively impact individual plants and populations.
Competition from exotic plant species (such as Lonicera tatarica and Rhamnus cathartica) is a threat to populations (Ludwig 1993). These species can form dense stands and eliminate ground layer herbaceous and other shrub species, including B. canadensis. Excessive shading and canopy closure in woodlands may be a factor in reducing seed production in the species, as has been noted in Missouri (Smith 1992).
Restoration Potential: The restoration potential of this species is largely unknown. Establishment or augmentation of populations is dependent upon seed germination, but conditions under which germination is triggered are unknown. Given success in germinating seeds, coupled with an active habitat management program designed to maintain open woodland/savanna conditions, restoration should be successful.
Preserve Selection and Design Considerations: Preserve designs should incorporate the requirements of fire management in maintaining suitable, open habitat. Preserve designs should incorporate sufficient area to conduct proper prescribed fire management and allow for a matrix of habitat areas and management units. Smoke planning should also be addressed in the preserve design.
Preserve size should also be a requirement for the long-term protection and viability of the species. Sufficient preserve size should be planned for habitat protection and restoration, and expansion of existing populations into these habitats.
Management Requirements: Berberis canadensis is a species of open woodlands, glades and savannas. Most of these habitats have grown closed with trees and shrubs since the elimination of a natural fire regime. Prescribed fire or selective thinning of the canopy should be conducted in order to increase light levels to the habitat and populations (Weakley 1993).
Managers should work cooperatively with state and federal regulatory agencies and organizations (e.g., USDA and state departments) to reduce or eliminate the effects of continued Berberis eradication efforts (Homoya 1992).
Management Programs: No known management programs are currently in place for the species in any portion of its range.
Monitoring Programs: Monitoring of plants is done by the Indiana DNR, Division of Entomology, for signs of black stem rust as part of eradication efforts.

Management Research Programs: No research programs directed at management needs are known at this time.
Management Research Needs: Research regarding the response of this species to fire, canopy thinning and other management activities would allow for better management of populations and habitat (Weakley 1993). There is a need to determine the best habitat for the species and how to best maintain the character of these areas (Smith 1992).
Biological Research Needs: Investigate factors that limit seed production; study the effects of habitat quality and genetic variation within and between populations to assess species' vigor (Smith, 1992). Research is needed to accurately assess the role that B. canadensis plays as a host to stem rust. Does the eradication of extant populations play a significant role in the elimination of the rust? Do eradication efforts pay for themselves? Information along these lines could be used to persuade agents to discontinue eradication efforts.
Comments: The red, fleshy berries of B. canadensis are edible (Small 1933). The plant is often grown for ornamental purposes because of its attractive foliage, flowers and fruit. It is also useful for wildlife food and cover and erosion control. The majority of barberry species are susceptible to black stem rust of wheat. Roots of barberry can be used to obtain a yellow dye. The plants contain an alkaloid called berberine, which is used for medicinal purposes in some areas (Rudolf 1974).
Research on this species has investigated the ultrastructural features of the cortical parenchyma cells in the stamen filaments (Fleurat-Lessard and Millet 1984). The stamen filaments of Berberis canadensis respond to various electrical, mechanical and chemical stimuli by bending. The mature stamens are formed from the reproductive meristem and lack photosynthetic activity and circadian movements. Berberis canadensis contains unusual walls, vascular microfibrils and microfilaments in the stamens. These walls are elastic due to their multiple folded appearance. Changes in the wall in the form of extensions may be linked with IAA, which may alter the fibrillar structure by regulating protein fluxes (Pilet and Roland 1974 as in Fleurat-Lessard and Millet 1984).
Another common name for this species is Alleghany barberry. An illustration of the species can be found in Steyermark (1963). Range distribution maps of the species can be found in the following sources: Missouri (Steyermark 1963), Virginia (Harvill et al. 1986).
Relevance to Humans and Ecosystems
Economic Uses
Comments: The primary threat to the survival of Berberis canadensis has been from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) comprehensive barberry eradication program. American barberry and most other barberries are alternate hosts for wheat rust (Puccinia graminis), a fungus that has caused major losses in certain grain crops here and in Europe (Hill 2003). Four small-grain crops (wheat, oats, barley, and rye) are all potential hosts to the organism causing black stem rust (BSR). Barberry is an alternate host for the organism causing black stem rust (BSR). Breeding varieties of small grains for resistance to BSR began in the United States around 1900 meeting with rapid success from crosses with wheat varieties from Russia and Turkey. By 1938, farmers were
planting resistant wheat varieties in the areas of the United States where BSR had been most destructive and continued to develop new resistant crop varieties. The difficulty with this approach is that while an individual crop variety may be resistant to several races of BSR, there are more than 200 existing races of BSR. The presence of BSR-susceptible barberry bushes providing the opportunity for new hybrid races of BSR to develop complicates the problem further. The use of resistant crops alone would never provide farmers with adequate protection from BSR. With the increasing demand for U.S. wheat, an alternative method of defense against a catastrophe the magnitude of the BSR epidemic of 1916 was needed.
In 1918, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) initiated a barberry eradication program in
cooperation with 13 north-central States (Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota,
Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, Wisconsin, and Wyoming). In 1935, four
additional states (Missouri, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia) joined the program, followed by Washington State in 1944. This time, the program resulted in the destruction of several hundred million susceptible barberry and mahonia bushes in over 700,000 square miles. Although barberry eradication is a cooperative project with State personnel, USDA has always played a leading role. USDA's funding for the barberry eradication program ended in 1980. Although several States continued some barberry eradication activities, the extensive eradication program also ended in 1980 (APHIS no date, Hill 2003).
Stewardship Overview: Management for B. canadensis should include the use of prescribed fire, selective thinning of the canopy or controlled mowing in order to maintain high light levels and eliminate woody plant encroachment. Habitats need protection from urbanization, agricultural activities, destructive recreational activities, land development, indiscriminate pesticide application, excessive grazing and exotic species. Monitoring of occurrences should be conducted frequently to track their status with respect to management activities. Habitat quality should be monitored and an assessment of threats to all populations should be made. Cooperative efforts between state and federal regulatory agencies (e.g., USDA and state departments) should be exercised to reduce or eliminate the effects of continued Berberis eradication efforts. Research is needed to accurately assess the role of B. canadensis as an alternate host to stem rust. Investigations into the reproductive biology, genetic variation, pollination vectors, factors effecting seed production and the response to management activities are also needed.
Berberis canadensis
Berberis canadensis more commonly known as the American Barberry is a member of the family Berberidaceae. Berberis canadensis is the only simple-leaved Berberis indigenous to the United States. The epithet "canadensis" literally means "Canadian" but was often used by 18th-Century botanists to refer to any plants growing in northeastern North America.[2]
Berberis canadensis is a deciduous shrub, which grows, on average 1 meter in height, sometimes reaching as high as 2 meters. It spreads by rhizomes, forming large stands of clones. Rhizomes enable the plant to absorb more nutrients from the soil. This enables the species to grow in relatively dry environments. Stems of Berberis canadensis are hairless, not extensively branched, and range in color from green, purple, red, to brown. Stems also grow in a dimorphic fashion.[3] The leaves on the shrub are arranged in an alternate pattern with petioles 8 mm in length and covered in a white waxy coating known as glaucose.[4] In addition, leaves are thin and smooth and ovate in structure. A seemingly random venation pattern is visible on the underside of the leaves.
Berberis canadensis is indigenous in 13 of the 50 states. B. canadensis has occurs naturally from the Appalachian Mountains from southern Pennsylvania to northern Georgia and Alabama.[5] Scattered populations have also been reported as far west as Missouri.[6]
The species primarily thrives on rocky slopes on the sides of hills and mountains. The species used to be a lot more prevalent in the past, however due to its connection with wheat rust, the United States government has slowly been eradicating the species. It seems that the species has reached an equilibrium with the environment, thus indicating no further expansion of the range. Unlike most plants whose growth is restricted by weather, B. canadensis is primarily restricted by soil composition and habitat openness.[7]
Habitat and Ecology[edit]
Berberis canadensis grows in many diverse open environments. It can be found in dry woodlands or on exposed hillside. The species grows in different soils types as well, ranging from basic to slightly acidic and extremely shallow in depth. The soil is well-drained with occasional moisture obtained from seasonal rainfall. Berberis canadensis is perennial, and is associated with a number of plants that grow in its habitat.[8]
Flowers and fruit[edit]
Flowers of Berberis canadensis are arranged in a raceme. They are usually 2–5 cm in length and have six petals. The petals are cup-shaped and notched at the tips.[9] In addition, flowers are set in a double row pattern, with one petal sitting on top of another. They range in color from yellow to a dull whitish yellow with a bright green stigma protruding out of the middle. The stamen responds to physical stimuli and bends towards the stigma when a stimulus is present.[10]
Berberis canadensis also produces small, bright red berries that are edible. Berries are oblong in shape and have a high acid content. This gives the fleshy berries an appealing tart-like taste.[11]
The fruit of Berberis candensis are used extensively by many people, and is rich in vitamin C. Historically, it has been known as a major source of nutrition for the indigenous people of southeastern United States. The juicy red berries of the plant can be cooked to make jelly. The juice of the berries is also a sought-after refreshment. Lastly the berries of the B. canadensis are pounded to produce a paste similar to oatmeal. In addition, the berries are sometimes used to make alcoholic beverages.[12]
Native Americans, specifically the Cherokee, have been known to use Berberis canadensis as a remedy for diarrhea. The bark of the plant would be placed in water and then drunk to help alleviate the symptoms. In addition all plants in the Berberidaceae are known to have anti-rheumatic and anti-cancer affects.

I love these glasses but like another reviewer stated, they break easily in the dishwasher. I lost several that way and did not treat them roughly.It seems to be this particular tumbler design with the midline ridge. The top portion of the glass is very fragile. I also have the wine goblets and they are much more sturdy.
These *were* beautiful glasses. I've had them about 2 weeks, and all but one has now broken in the dishwasher. They were not treated roughly, just a very defective product.
I will continue to purchase this line. Every product from la Rochere has been perfect. I bought them for a gift and my mother absolutely loves them. I will continue to purchase the whole line for her.

Kavos Hotel Náxos, Náxos, Greece: review
843 00 Ágios Prokópios, Naxos, Greece.Show on map
The Kavos Hotel Náxos, just above Ágios Prokópios resort, is a beach-view hotel offering stone clad cottages, soothing interiors and great breakfasts.
Expert Rating
Marc Dubin has been writing about Greece for over three decades. He is the author of several books including the Insight and Rough Guides to Greece, the Greek Islands, and Cyprus. He has also written about Greek cuisine, Greek music and Greek real estate.
A top-drawer suite-and-villa complex that is the only Náxos listing in Jacoline Vinke's prestigious Small Hotels in Greece guide.
Who goes?
Multinational profile of couples (especially honeymooners) and families, including many loyal repeaters. Some painting-holiday groups low season.
Looking out to sea and Páros from the southwest flank of the Stelída Peninsula, which divides Ágios Prokópios resort from Ágios Geórgios bay and Náxos town. It's unsignposted, so get directions in advance. Built in 1990 but updated regularly since, the Kavos was one of the first developments here, so it snaffled the best position; 10 minutes' walk to the nearest beach.
A Cycladic hillside oasis of low-maintenance landscaping with stone-clad cottages, an infinity pool that doesn't seem clichéd in the setting, and interiors which are contemporary without being outré.
Staff, from the manager Barbara down, are professional and eager to please, helping to generate a loyal repeat clientele. There's a small gym on-site, dedicated parking spot for each unit, Wi-Fi signal throughout.
Choose from four grades of accommodation: open-plan studio suites (three of these with roof terraces) fitting up to three, with real double beds, proper stall showers and token kitchens; one-bedroom apartments which can take four people, using sitting-room divans; two- or three-bedroom villas for up to six persons, and a few honeymoon suites. Most of the villas have private roof terraces, and units of apartment grade and above have proper kitchens for whipping up a full meal. A typical two-bedroom villa boasts marble and Italian-ceramic flooring, mosquito screens, a big fridge-freezer, electric backup for the solar hot water, an ample front garden, original art courtesy of past guests, and two bathrooms (one en-suite) with properly screened shower-tubs – but twin beds with a topping mattress rather than true doubles. All cottages have furnishings with sculpted contours, a soothing, predominantly white colour palette, marble floors and bathrooms, plus soaring arches, exposed pointing and ceiling beams in the apartments.
Food and drink
Breakfast (charged separately, allow £7 per person) is served by the poolside. Unusually for a hotel of this grade, snacks and other meals (normally priced for Náxos) get the thumbs up from guests and feature well-executed creative Greek cuisine based on Náxos's abundant produce – go for the daily specials board.
Value for money
Excellent for what's on offer, especially during spring or autumn. Studio suites start from £80 in May or October (breakfast charged extra), to £163 in July; budget £117–220 for more capacious four-person apartments. Open mid-April to mid-Oct.
Access for guests with disabilities?
In part – the lowest tier of studios are just two steps up; the villas uphill can be driven to.
Yes, at the two- or three-bedroom bungalows, though these are often prebooked the year before.
Address 843 00 Ágios Prokópios, Naxos, Greece.

Overall User Rating: Carlisle 4009 Clear 9" Salad Tongs ( 4.7 stars from 3 reviews )
The 9 inch salad tongs are a great length to keep the handle of the utensil out of most bowls. They are also lightweight and easy to clean.
Marcus T. Posted on 12/15/2013
I thought these tongs might either look low-quality because they are plastic or break easily. We've been using them for months and they still look about the same as when we bought them and have held up to our heavy use very well without breaking. We use them on the salad bar in the buffet line, and they look nicer and serve more appropriate serving amounts than the metal tongs we were using before purchasing these.
Anne O. from Sterling College Posted on 10/07/2011
These added to the nice presentation when doing a buffet/salad bar with clear food pans/trays. They actually worked well and handle the multiple times going through the dishwasher, and they do not stain....Always looking prestine

We had to unexpectedly replace our old tv and decide to purchase a smart tv. We knew LG was a good electronic brand and just so happened to get an excellent price for tv despite having to buy unexpectedly! Set-up was just a little tricky as I am not an electronic guru but we got it and now have Netflix set-up as well and we are both loving it!

Only surfs HD channels at a time, skips non HD channels. Need large base to set Tv or hang it on wall. Tv has only digital sound output. My rf headphones do not work with out buying a adapter.You must select optical or Tv speaker, but you can not hear both a the same time. I am hard of hearing and I use headphones while my wife listens to Tv speaker. The remote is a little crowded for big fingers.

Easy Out of the Box and LG Quality as expected
By MikeB4
from Charlotte, NC
The speaker quality was a positive surprise! The tools for online streaming exceeded my expectations. SMART TV features are critical to my usage/enjoyment! I also tested picture quality options & zoned in on a setting with ease. Setup 'out of the box' was a breeze. The WEB site videos were key when I started to 'stretch' my usage options. My LG washer & dryer now compete with this SMART TV to see which adds more delight! You can't miss with LG.

Great picture quality, easy to use remote and easy to use features. Updates are automatic. Everything is smooth and so clear. Great product.
Great design
By Nick555
from MA
Looks excellent on and off with a great slim design. Settings can be confusing and sometimes it may be hard to determine how you want to watch what you are watching (cinema, vivid, sports, etc.). The stand is nice to the eye but it is a bit wide and has trouble when put on small tables. I would recommend this tv.

Wurtz Riesling Trocken 2006
- Rheingau / Rheinhessen
- Germany
Riesling grapes are very rarely blended with others in the development of wines, and for good reason. These pale grapes which originated in the cool Rhine Valley of Germany are notable for their 'transparency' of flavor, which allows the characteristics of their terroir to shine through in wonderful ways. The result of this is a wine which carries a wide range of interesting flavors quite unlike those found in other white wines, finished off with the distinctively floral perfume Riesling supplies so well. Many wineries in Germany and elsewhere tend to harvest their Riesling grapes very late often as late as January in order to make the most of their natural sweetness. Other methods, such as encouraging the noble rot fungus, help the Riesling grape varietal present some truly unique and exciting flavors in the glass, and the variety of wines this varietal can produce mean it is one of the finest and most interesting available anywhere.
Rheingau in Germany is one of the country's most prodigious and well respected wine regions, with the south facing slopes of the mountains in the area producing Riesling grape vines of exceedingly high quality. The region has a wine making history which stretches back for centuries, and the wineries of Rheingau have long since mastered the art of expressing the beautiful, windswept and mineral rich terroir through their characterful white wines. With only three thousand hectares of Rheingau being under vine, the region is relatively small, yet has been home to many of the country's finest wines, and a large proportion of the most important viticultural innovations of Germany. Whilst Riesling is by far the most popular grape varietal in Rheingau, Pinot Noir is also grown quite widely, and today, many wineries are continuing to experiment with new grape varietals in order to make a wider range of wines.
If German wine has had something of a bad reputation in the past, it may well be the fault of the fact that for a long time now, the Germans have simply kept all the best produce to themselves. Visit any town or village in wine producing regions of Germany, and you'll be faced with a stunning array of extremely high quality wines, each matched with local dishes and full of distinct character and flavor. As white wine production makes up for about two-thirds of all Germany's wine industry, this is by far the most visible and widely enjoyed type of wine, but one should not overlook the quality and range of rosé and red wines on offer from this fascinating country. In particular, the Spatburgunder wines (the German name for Pinot Noir) are generally of an exceptionally high quality, being full of dark, intense hedgerow fruit flavors and exciting spicy notes with a silky smooth finish.

2012 is expected to be a continuation of 2011, with more federal budget pressure and cuts to pay and benefits and possibly even an extension of the pay freeze. Not surprisingly, some feds are saying they've had enough and are threatening to trade their government service for a career in the private sector.
But will the government really experience a mass exodus of disgruntled employees? And are feds frustrated enough that they are willing to leave in a time of soaring unemployment and continued financial uncertainty?
In July 2011, an analysis by USA Today showed that federal employees' job security was so strong that workers at many agencies were more likely to die of natural causes than get laid off or fired. The analysis showed that death was a greater threat than layoffs at agencies such as the Office of Management and Budget and the Small Business Administration. The research also revealed that the federal government fired far fewer employees last year compared to the private sector.
But in 2012, the picture is looking much different. More than 100,000 federal employees are expected to leave government this year, according to projections by the Partnership for Public Service. Along with the usual retirees lurk a significant number who are looking for better opportunities in the private sector. Although feds have patiently shouldered the burden of the downsizing of government, a growing number are expressing frustration with what they say are persistent, unfair attacks on the federal workforce.
Federal hiring managers also recognize the challenges that lie ahead. According to a Federal News Radio survey in December 2011, public-sector human resources professionals said their biggest hurdle this year will be retaining employees in a sluggish economy.
Sinking morale rarely comes as a surprise to agencies. Various surveys, including the Office of Personnel Management's Annual Employee Survey, highlight the issues surrounding morale and job satisfaction among federal employees. In addition, exit interviews bring some insight into the attitudes and behaviors of departing employees. But agencies also need to be proactive about identifying problems before employees walk out the door.
The lure of greener pastures
Although it is difficult to quantify how many feds are leaving because they have had enough, tens of thousands will go despite general financial uncertainty and high unemployment, said John Palguta, vice president for policy at the Partnership for Public Service. That could mean that some feds are willing to risk being without a job rather than stay at a government agency that has the potential for more cutbacks or layoffs.
"It's hard to refute the notion that some of the increase that we're seeing in retirements and quits...is due to the attacks on federal pay and benefits," Palguta said. Some of the greatest motivations to leave the government are rooted in the idea that there is always something better on the other side of the fence, whether it is better pay, benefits, work environment or job satisfaction, he added.
The younger generation, in particular, tends to seek opportunities that encourage growth and development. But in a stagnant economy, those opportunities are likely to disappear, leaving frustrated feds to ponder other career options. A report last year from the Partnership for Public Service and Booz Allen Hamilton found that nearly one-fifth of newly hired employees leave within two years. The number of fast-exiting young feds could easily grow as the government faces ever-shrinking budgets.
But federal employees itching to leave government might be better off staying put. Although 2012 promises more belt-tightening and growing anti-government sentiments that epitomize presidential election years, better times could be right around the corner.
"My prediction is that 2013 will be a better year," Palguta said. "We're seeing some preliminary signs that we might have bottomed out from the bad economy and things are improving. If you can make it through 2012, you might start seeing some improvement in what people think about the government and clarity in regard to the budget."

To Slade and others on the comments.. you chose your job and Feds chose theirs so if you're jealous over the pay/benefits or job security you think Feds have, get a Federal job, but stop kicking them around and knocking them for having a job that just "SEEMS" more secure than Private Industry because it's not greener on the Fed side and I'm not complaining either. AND Unelect the Elected - Both parties need to go.
I believe that large numbers of Federal Employees jumping to the Private Sector is unlikely to happen. What I worry about is the quality of those that do. Like any large employer the Federal Government has people who are high caliber, highly motivated, exceptionally skilled professionals. Also like any other large employer, the Federal Government has a contingent of employees who are just taking up space. The problem is that a move to the private sector is a real option for the high caliber employees, and not an option at all for the useless. What migration we will see will be the best and brightest walking out the door.
Come on James.......get real. I work in the IT industry for the largest provider of IT hardware and the second largest provider of IT services in the world. Thanks to "Best Shore" concepts the IT jobs are moving overseas. Unless you have management skills and want to manage programmers in India, good luck. And "high-skill professionals"? Come on...the government is paying a high tech job code for COBOL programmers. One of them once told me when I asked why they did not put forth effort to upgrade their skill sets to stay current in the market......"I work for the government, if they want me to know it, they will have to teach it to me". These people will walk to find public sector jobs? How will we support all the new unemployed?
One of the parties will not be satisfied until there is no middle class. First the private sector, now the public sector. I think it's time for both private and public sector middle class employees to fight back and take our country back.
Something to remember is that many federal employees these days are high-skill professionals. It is NOT difficult to find secure positions in engineering or IT. Those people will walk first- they have many options.

Owner of new café on 18th Avenue welcomes you
Like to try a new eating place with the flavor of the 1950s? Lynn Lawrence, owner of Lynn's Sunnyside Café, 1624 18th Ave., Rockford, invites you to come on in and get acquainted. Although the building has been there for decades, the café is a new venture, and when The Rock River Times (TRRT) spoke with Lawrence, they were in their fourth week of business.
TRRT: What are the main menu items? Any specials?
Lynn Lawrence: "We do a lunch special every day. One day we had meatloaf, mashed potatoes, gravy and vegetable. Today, we had beans and ham with cornbread. The cook, Sue Faries, tries to do something different every day. We have a great waitress, too, Judy Wille."
TRRT: What are the days and hours you are open?
LL: "We're open Tuesday-Saturday from 6 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., breakfast to lunch."
TRRT: Is there anything distinctive about your restaurant you'd like people to know about?
LL: "In the 1940s and '50s, this was called Sunnyside Café, and the owner back then — his son gave us permission to use this name again. We have a lot of original stuff. The bar and stools are from the 1940s and '50s. They've given us pictures. We put up a picture of the lady who used to run it in the 1940s, and her son's photo. We have a 1950's dining room table. That's kind of the way we're going. My brother has a 1950 board with a picture that he took, and we put it up on the wall. We're trying to get the 1950's feel. It's a diner from the 1950s. The owner of Nick Gulotta's Pizza on 11th Street came in today and said he would not change a thing. He liked all our decor; he thought we did everything right."
From the Dec. 7-13, 2011, issue

Are you trying to find this wine in Montreal, or just to have the bottle translated, or something else?
Peach sparkling wine - brand L'oiseau bleu (Blue Bird)
I plugged "L'oiseau bleu" into the SAQ site and nothing came up for this brand. http://www.saq.com
re: sunnylove
I can't help you with the "is it any good" part (and for that you might actually want to post on the Wine board) but I did find this post about the L'oiseau bleu winery's trademark!
Looks like L'Oiseau Bleu was a sub-brand made by a company called Dumont Vins et Spiriteux in Quebec. Even though they still have a listing on Yelp, I'm pretty sure they're out of business. They made inexpensive non-vintage table wines.
There's a phone number at the Yelp link that might be worth a try... http://www.yelp.com/biz/dumont-vins-a...

A former Blackville-Hilda High School football standout is a champion in the Canadian Football League.
Brandon Isaac, who graduated from Blackville-Hilda High in 2003 and played at the University of South Carolina, plays linebacker for the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL.
The team won the league's 100th Grey Cup Nov. 25, defeating the Calgary Stampeders 35-22.
Isaac was an all-state performer his senior year at Blackville-Hilda. He played offense and defense, recording 87 tackles and rushing for over 1,000 yards with 16 touchdowns. He also threw for over 500 yards and 7 touchdowns, according to his USC profile page. He played for Coach David Berry.
After high School, Isaac spent two years at Georgia Military Junior College before transferring to USC where he played defensive back.
Isaac signed a two year deal with the Argonauts in May. He spent the 2010 and 2011 seasons with Calgary.
Isaac played this past season in dedication to this mother, Sandra, who passed away in May from breast cancer. He told the Toronto Star newspaper in October, "I want to be on top of my game in memory of my mother."
Isaac worked with the CFL to promote breast cancer awareness during October.
"She didn't always have a job, but she always put food on our table and a roof over our heads," Isaac told the newspaper.
His aunt, Everdell Daniels, of Blackville, said she's proud.
"Life has thrown some very sharp curves, and he has managed to escape all except the hardest curve of all, which was the loss of his mother, my sister," she said in a letter, "... I just want him to know that I love him and admire his strength and loyalty."

WebberAndButtplugSucks June 25, 2009 2:08 PM 90% of those rallies are based in Europe. It should be called the European Rally Championship. 13. What an unlucky number... Reply Report abuse 2 agree 0 disagree
runnah - Unregistered June 25, 2009 2:12 PM I guess FIA's map doesn't include the Americas.I'd love to see a US rally involving Pike's Peak as a special stage! 0 agree 0 disagree
Taz - Unregistered June 25, 2009 2:13 PM No Monte ????What a bloody joke. It's becoming more like F1 every year.And they might as well call Rally GB the Welsh rally as all the stages as in Wales. No killer Kielder 0 agree 0 disagree
Dafydd Larcombe - Unregistered June 25, 2009 2:39 PM I was sad that the best Rallies were absent for next year, Ok Monte is one of the Proper Rallies and its a shame thats not back, but GB and Finland should never be dropped.Oh and Taz, now Wales no longer funds Rally GB maybe the venue will go in a different direction. If it doesnt that will be because it represents the best overall package where it is, given the rules on distance restriction. Athough I prefer classic stages in Mid rather than South Wales, stages like Penmachno, Clocaenog, Dyfnant, Bettws y Coed, Dyfi etc etcAll in all the FIA has announced some welcome changes finally. It will be good that teams can enter S2000 or WRC in different cars but still with a high spec car. 0 agree 0 disagree
Stevie L - Unregistered June 25, 2009 2:40 PM I fail to understand why WRC drop its most loved stages such as Africa and of course The Monte Calo to have a race in Russia, Indonesia or Bulgaria. They may have fans that will go and watch the races but the likes of Monte was a tested venue for many years and gave some of the most amazing rallies with its mix of snow, ice and dry tarmac.I believe the WRC is has lost its spark. I just hope the new rules turn it around in a few years..... 0 agree 0 disagree
Sebastian Leiva June 25, 2009 3:54 PM Last Edited 2076 days ago I'm completely agreed with you WebberAndButtplugSucks... And I'm very disappointed that there is no Rally Argentina on 2010 Calendar... I feel sad. I hope we can get the Bulgarian spot...Let's watch the DAKAR only next year... It would have been a great 2010 with both rallies coming south! Reply Report abuse 0 agree 0 disagree
mrploppy - Unregistered June 25, 2009 4:05 PM argentina and ireland should be instead of bulgaria and desserted jordan 1 agree 0 disagree
runnah - Unregistered June 25, 2009 4:09 PM How about including events that make for good rallies instead of catering to countires that fell8te the FIA the most? 0 agree 0 disagree
Beszti - Unregistered June 25, 2009 4:21 PM No worry guys, FIA lets IRC to take over the Monte which was awesome this year. 6 hours of live tv footage, lots of snow and ice, stages in the darkness, more manufacturers than in WRC. IRC is getting better and better - live tv coverage, more action, cheaper cars... 0 agree 0 disagree

Hi guys, I have a Samasung Galaxy S3 with Verizon Wireless carrier. About a week ago, I received the autmotatic firmware update from verizon. I do not want this update in any way, plus I have a rooted phone that would make it useless. I press deffer every time, but I goes back every 24 hours. I tried just installing the firmware update, but I get an error (probaly due to the fact my phone is already rooted). Tried Titanium Backup to freeze the process, but it doesnt help. Tried looking for the update filed itself and try to delete it manually- but couldn't find its name. Can anybode please help me remove this update prompt from happening every day? Thank you.
I just found that process yesterday, so I killed it and nothing popped out yesterday , so I guess problem solved. Question: Is the firmware update that important, or can I live without it if I have already rooted my phone and installed a custom rom?
You can't apply VZW's update to a custom ROM. You may be able to flash the modem part (separate manual install) if it doesn't break the custom ROM (I assume it wouldn't).

Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Fine

I don't use this everyday, just when I feel like my hair isn't as shiny or soft as it usually is. Right after I put it on, my hair is soo soft and shiny. The smell is absolutely amazing I can't even explain it. I just love it, it reminds me of summer.
Smells AMAZING
Makes hair soft
Makes hair shiny
Protects and moisturizes hair
If applied at the roots (don't do that) hair can look greasy
The opening of the bottle gets some product on it and gets sticky and gunky
A little goes a LONG way. Apply some product to your fingertips and rub fingers together. Run your fingers through your hair, ignore your roots and top part of your head to avoid oiliness. When I'm at home, not going anywhere, I put product on roots. I wash my hands after because it leaves a little residue.

I think that in order for this product to effectively work you need to figure out how much of the oil to use. I have thin hair just past my breasts and use about a tablespoon each time I wash my hair. I don't apply it all at once, instead a little at a time while it dries. Its also good to put some in a small container to keep in your purse and travel with you. It sounds like a lot of work but I think if you want great hair this is a great product.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Medium, Cool
Hair: Brunette, Relaxed, Fine

i don't get the hype about this. t dosnt do much,its jus an oil and there are better ones out there. would not repurchase
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Other, Other, Not Sure
Hair: Other, Other, Other

This stuff is amazing! It leaves my hair feeling soft, soft soft, which is really good because my hair is generally very dried out. It's a good treatment for damaged hair. The only con i'd say is the price, it's is expensive, but in my opinion it's worth it.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Red, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
Love this product especially in the winter. Smooths down my fly aways and a little goes a long way! Absorbs quickly and doesn't make your hair look greasy. The smell reminds me of fresh laundry!
Not a real fan of the packaging. I find it awkward to get out, and I usually get too much. A pump would be so much more convenient.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Normal, Fair-Medium, Warm
Hair: Blond, Wavy, Medium
Eyes: Hazel
This stuff is great for dry damaged hair. It helps restore the luster and shine and not to mention the manageablilty and strength. This is an overall great product
Age: 44-55
Skin: Dry, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
This is the most obnoxious smelling product. Why in the world would they put such a strong odor in such a good product? Covering something? It took me two washes to get it out. I gave it a three because it worked very well.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Acne-prone, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
I got this oil as a gift and I love the smell, I massage it on the ends of my hair, if I put it too close to my scalp I get the greasy hair look, I can apply it on either dry or wet hair and it leaves it incredibly soft and silky. I think the best thing about this product is the smell, it lasts all day and then some, I get compliments all the time from people wanting to know what perfume I'm wearing, and I don't wear perfume! They should definitely change the packaging though as it can come out really fast or too much.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
I love the MoroccanOil. I have used many other products on my hair and I haven't been able to find one that makes me like my hair until I was recommended this by my hair stylist. I was skeptical about buying it considering the price and my other failed attempts at product usage, but after using this I have seen a dramatic difference in the texture of my hair. I have thick, natural curly hair and it drys out very easily. This product makes for an easier time styling my hair and I feel as if my hair is healthier all together.

Mr Smith goes to . . . find a monster
by Stephen Smith Published
Call me Ishmael. I've been hunting a monster of the deep. Not from the prow of a whaler, but from another equally dramatic vantage point: the kitchens of London's Chinatown. In the steaming tureens of dim sum dives, in the limpid fish tanks of Chinese restaurants, I've been seeking this piscine prodigy.
You see, I'd heard from the United States about a so-called "Frankenfish", aka "the fish from hell". Ostensibly a freshwater denizen of Far Eastern origin, this creature is said to eat rats. Its unusual tastes are a clue to the truly freakish fact about the fish. It is well adapted to dry land, its sinewy fins apparently propelling it over terra firma like so many pectoral castors. In the Chinese communities of New York, the guys have been running a book about which is the faster animal out of water, the turtle or the scaly newcomer. This has emerged just as literary Manhattan is agog over a fictional contest between different species, in a novel called Bear v Shark. I immediately set out to see if the Frankenfish had reached these shores. This magazine has its knockers, but you can count on the fingers of one hand the number of times we've allowed ourselves to be scooped on stories about racing fish.
There was more to it than sheer old-fashioned professionalism. I had memories of a Huckleberry Finn moment on a British foreshore, watching sand fleas hopping towards the sea and constructing a steeplechase course for them, with lolly sticks for Beecher's Brook. I remember a beach party at a university hall of residence, and a derby for well-matched crustaceans that was as keenly backed as the snail race in the recent Guinness commercial.
The first thing I noticed in Gerrard Street, the heart of oriental Soho, was that the road was up. Not ideal going for an amphibians' handicap. But, I reasoned, there would be plenty of level ground inside the restaurants, once the last orange segment had been sucked dry and the tables pushed to the walls. However, my inquiries were met by glacial glances. It was no better at the Chinese fish shop and the supermarket. A Sinologist might say that I did myself no favours by referring to the fish by another of its aliases, the snakehead, which can also mean a Triad-style syndicate. But then a maItre d' told me that he had seen such a thing. Another drew a sketch of an outlandish serpent on his own palm. "Sure, I've seen this," he said. "You want to take a look?"
"Yes," I breathed.
"Then buy a ticket to Hong Kong."
Can I say at this point that to quibble about the lack of an authenticated snakehead sighting in this report would be as literal-minded as saying that Moby Dick is a book about a fish? The quest is everything. (Though, fair dos, Melville does eventually serve up something to go with chips and tartar sauce.)
