1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup white sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup chopped pecans
A major step has been omitted - rolling/shaking the completed cookies in powdered sugar while they are still hot.
I added a couple of teaspoons of coconut and they were even better!
5 Ratings
These cookies need 1 tsp vanilla extract to bring out the full flavor of the pecans.
I baked these cookies because I had lots of pecans in the cupboard. I don't bake very often, but thought they needed something... not sure what. My husband liked them but I thought it was just an average cookie.
These are absolutely amazing. I won't even try another recipe! I didn't get the full 5 dozen out of them, but they are so easy to make, doing another batch is just fine!

Very good
Great room, amazing bed, friendly efficient staff, and everything you could want for breakfast.
Super staff plus lovely room and location even in winter.Had small problem with room that was booked not available on arrival due to plumbing problem but staff made up for that.Seating to relax in restaurant bar are restricted.Food excellent would stay again.
Bed and sofa was super comfy. Right near the beach. Afternoon tea thrown in was great. Food good , ace desert
Eating was a bit close to everyone else! I remembered it seeming a bit more laid back before. But I'm a fussy man
Lovely food, friendly and helpful staff! Beautiful location. Would return!
Relaxed dining. Interesting & well cooked tasting menu. Slick service. Breakfast choices comprehensive even without cooked options. Comfortable rooms with unexpected touches.. Superb location but to be fair we knew that already!
Some paintwork in room could do with retouching.....
Quaint hotel, afternoon tea with cakes, location, food in restaurant
Small bed, small room,
The staff where very helpful and keen to make your stay enjoyable. The restaurant was lovely, good food service and decor.
The view fom
Staff were very welcoming on arrival as well as in the restaurant - although it was a bit over the top being asked at every course by 2 different staff if everything was ok. The food was very good and the wine pairing recommendations were spot on.
The accommodation was not on par with the service and food. The corridor leading to all the rooms was in desperate need of redecoration - paint chips and scuff marks and a very well worn carpet. The bedroom and bathroom were also looking a little tired and need of a lick of paint. So in sharp contras to the restaurant decor and reception.
They often stay in upmarket hotels and found The Gallivant of an excellent standard. We visited them in the morning for breakfast and found, as they had previously said, that the staff were extremely helpful. The breakfast was great - good quality local ingredients and we liked the 'Recovery station' with all the components of a Bloody Mary plus Alka Seltzer - we didn't need it but it did make us smile. Many thanks.
It was a warm welcome at The Gallivant. The style of the room was original and although it was wet outside on our stay, we would've made use of the private garden.
Although it made for some great giggle material, we could hear the couple next door playing a game of very loud twister. I think they both won, the walls might be a little thin though.
Everything! Seems to have thought of everything. Afternoon tea and comfy seats with fleece covers and log fire lovely in the winter. Lots of thought gone into the way breakfast was served. Food magnificent - all local. Everyone really helpful. Across the road was the beach where we had a bracing Autumn walk. Loved every minute of it.
Minor point on an otherwise wonderful stay....Could have a sign on the underfloor heating switch. We turned it on by accident and the room got too warm. Didn't realise until the morning.
Restrauant attached and short walk to beach
Cooked breakfast was chargeable
The welcome, the ambience,the food, especially the breakfast. The staff here deserve the highest praise. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a fantastic break!
carpet dirty, no milk in shared fridge, plug broken had to take it apart and found lots of hairs attached to it blinds did not operate smoothly, nothing about the room was worth the £115. cost ...
The comfy bed and quality bedding. The afternoon cup of tea and cake gesture. The beach opposite.
If we were staying longer, there was no wardrobe or real storage space.
Have stayed here twice now and has been a great stay both times. Rooms are good size and comfortable. Staff are friendly and food is very nice. Also only minutes away from the beach!
Staff on the whole friendly, relaxed ambience. Great breakfast
At £170 per night b&b didn't expect stained carpets . A few errors on the evening meal which to be fair were corrected and apologised for however, kind of put a damper on things. Bed really comfortable but pillows poor.
Stayed a few times now and each time it's a joy. Wonderful boutique hotel with a rustic seaside feel to the rooms. Love the added extras - Noble Isle products in the bathroom, DVD player, free cookies. It all adds to the overall experience. Location is perfect - you walk out of the hotel, across the road and you are at the entrance to the beach (albeit up a tall sand dune!). The restaurant is lovely, even more so after the last refit. Very relaxing, good local produce and surprisingly good wine list. Would definitely recommend and hope to visit again next year.
Was a little disappointed by the knowledge of the wait staff in the restaurant. We had a few questions about some of the dishes on the menu which they struggled to answer. But they were very friendly, and did try to help.
Location and friendly staff.
Service was fairly poor in the restaurant and we were rushed to our table so this was surprising.
Fantastic bed, the room was lovely, good to have a sofa too, luxurious toiletries in the bathroom. In fact lots of lovely little details in the rooms that showed real care. No-nonsense wifi was reliable too, a prerequisite as I was there to work.
The restaurant was exorbitantly priced for tiny portions, truly shocking!, and the service was poor. Eg: £3.95 for a side of sweet potato rosemary fries sounds great, but I couldn't quite believe it when 6 small chips arrived. £2.50 for 2 very ordinary (and cold) slices of bread with butter as an accompaniment to the over-priced terrine. The baby gem salad on the menu came as mixed leaves, but nobody thought to point it out - if I'm paying top dollar I expect these details to be observed! The restaurant just didn't seem to care about its customers in the way that the hotel side did. I overheard other people telling staff they'd been served the wrong food, or chasing food that had been forgotten, it wasn't just me that felt invisible. If it's living on the reputation of its predecessor The Place (which I loved) then it's on borrowed time. There was nothing wrong with the food, but the only thing that was memorable was the bill - and that I woke up hungry the next morning.
Friendly staff and excellant location
All the dirty laundry and hoovers in the hallway on walk down to room when we arrived and in the morning when we went to breakfast.

Your Guide To Recieving Compensation For PPI Claims
For the past couple of years, the mis-selling of PPI, by the banks have dominated the news. However, many people are confused as to what PPI Claims are and how they can be compensated. Here at insuranceadvicehq, we have created the following guide, that will hopefully answer some question you may have, regarding PPI Claims.
What Are PPI Claims?
PPI claims are claims that are filed against the banks that have mis-sold payment protection insurance policies. These claims can require a frustrating amount of paperwork and be difficult to win, so if it's time for you to file one, you may want to contract with a skilled solicitor.
Let's examine the basics of PPI claims:
Ways In Which PPI, May Have Been Missold
Full disclosure is a very important part of selling PPI policies, and if it is neglected in any way, the person who purchased the policy may be eligible for full reimbursement.
For a PPI policy to be sold correctly, it's essential that the sales representative explains the total cost of the insurance over the full life of the policy.
In addition, they should explain how the policy works, the terms and conditions, and that purchasing the policy is optional and not required in order to obtain credit.
What Happens When the Rules are Broken
If the rules are broken when a policy is sold, the person who purchased the policy may be eligible for full reimbursement from the bank that holds the loan.
This means that if you were mis-sold a PPI policy, you can file appropriate paperwork and be reimbursed for all the money you've paid for the policy itself for as long as you've owned it, as well as for interest on the money.
Filing a PPI claim can allow you to regain access to a large amount of money that you've paid out for years.
If you were sold a policy without full information, you deserve to regain your money as quickly as possible.
A skilled solicitor can help you file appropriate claim paperwork, so that you're able to receive full reimbursement as quickly as possible. A company that insuranceadvicehq.com, has found and one which we highly recommend is: allppiclaimsco.com. www.allppiclaimsco.com, who are ppi claims specialists, will help you to reclaim PPI and you work on a no win no fee basis and all customers are not charged any fees.
When you need to receive compensation for the money you've paid out over time, work with allppiclaimsco.com will help you to receive full compensation for your claim. You can visit their website, by

All that rambunctious energy? Wow, this looks so soft and serene. Beautiful! |
Thanks Eileen, Kat, and Katy for the comments! Kat, I think what you are seeing is what we call "the point". There is a channel here that leads in to the boat ramp, then you have the river. We use to have a rope tied onto a tree on that point that we'd swing out and drop into the river. That is, when we weren't jumping off the paddlewheel of the old Mary Woods boat that is no longer here or jumping off the bluff bank. My mom would have had a heart attack if she knew everything we did, lol. |
OOoooo so beautiful, it's a 'soft' day. |
Love the fog-softened colors, Delana! I have to ask...what is that on the right..looks a bit like a flying saucer? |
Lovely pastel foggy capture! |
I am married (38 years), we enjoy being outdoors, fishing, going for drives on the back-roads. I enjoy taking pictures of everything and I really enjoy seeing everyones pictures they put on this site. We live in a very small town that is where the White and Black Rivers meet. The town has a State Park here, has a lot of history, there is a video that was made for AETN TV, if you click on Visit My Website, you can see it. Create your own visitor map!

Mario Seemingly infinite Mario parodies! Some of the funniest Flash movies ever conceived!
Author Comments
EDIT: To all billion of you upset about the volume of the character "voices" compared to the actual song, send your complaints to the original creator of the song. I simply animated to the MP3 I had, and couldn't alter it in any way. There's nothing I could've done to change it, sorry.
This was a little idea I came up with practically on a whim last Sunday. I finished the whole thing in a little under a week, and I think it turned out pretty well. Back in 2004, a dude by the name of Martin Hagwell, also known as "Märta" made a song out of the BGM from the "Forest Maze" level from Super Mario RPG for the SNES. Just recently, he remixed the song he created into a full-fledged professional sounding song, titled "Rawest Forest". After finding the song by chance last weekend thanks to a YouTube video, I took a listen, and got the idea for this movie. Mario RPG is one of my absolute favorite games of ALL time, and I know it inside and out. Those who know the game as well as I do will catch all of the references scattered throughout the animation. I also used this as a test to try out some new little tricks with animation. The good majority of the movie is frame-by-frame, and yes, I know the drawings're a little crappy (I don't have a tabley, unfortunately), but I enjoyed working on it throughout my last full week of High School (YAY), and it doubled as the final for my animation class, so that's even better! Anyway, hope you enjoy it for what it is. I certainly had a ball.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Kirb, you freakin genuis!
This was actually pretty good. I've never played the game myself but this video was great! Keep it up.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
reminds me of the good old day of mario rpg
great song too, goes very well with the flash. also, where can you get the song for download.
thanks for the great work and also keep up with the super parody rangers love that flash.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
where to get song
awsome flash, i want to get the song on mp3 where do i get the song?
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Awesome! SMRPG is my favorite SNES game.
I especially liked the part where Toad said "Practice Timed Hits, BITCH" it made me lol.
I also loved the song. I watched this flash 3 times in a row.

Ouch! The Language of Pain
One of NPR's summer interns, Josh Kim, set out to answer this burning question: Why do people from different countries express pain differently? Most Americans might say "Ouch!" when they stub their toe or touch a hot stove. But other people in other countries say something else. Kim brings us this exploration of the curious similarities and idiosyncrasies of language.

Soo Yung: Yeah come on, push the button! <Rush Hour> Once upon a time there was like 5 or so "churches" and people started pushing buttons, so when something would come up and create a disagreement, they would split off their own church. Now we seem to be up to 500 or so "churches" and there is a item or 2 different between them all.... Almost sounds like RC Clubs. Went to a church with my ex wife, all they talked about was money, and replacing stained glass windows with new stained glass. I went to marriage classes, becoming prepared for marriage. Obviously it didn't help. Many years later, the preacher man hearing that we had separated, his main concern was keeping me in the church and wanted me to come to singles night... not yet divorced. Attended a couple weddings, these are not churches, they are full on business, entertaining and hosting, expanding their buildings, and severing catered meals in the same room church is held... no pews, just chairs that are easy to flip and start prayer.... Good luck in your mission to find that sunday home, its almost like finding car insurance these days. |

Ok Kerwin, if you want snow......come get it! The snowbank across the street where you parked is near 20' high.......some years it's grown as high as 40'. We put more gas in our snowblowers than we do our cars. The friggin' rabbits jump up on the snow banks in the yard and eat the tender branches off my cherry trees.....the little bastards have no right eating anything over 6 feet off the friggin' ground!!!!! Time to set some snares and traumatize the girls as they flopsy and mopsy struggle for their last gasp of air! Course my better half says: "They are all God's creatures and should share in His bounty." Of course she doesn't know that rabbit caught in town tastes every bit as good as country rabbit........that too being God's bounty....hehehe! My big snowblower developed issues during this morning's session of blowing heavy, wet snow.......and now I have to rebuild it cause I need the extra horsepower to throw the snow up and over the ever growing snowbanks! Did I ever mention it sucks being me!

I'm frustrated with the anti Bitcoin crowd and their vitriol against it.
Submitted by twilson1utk on Fri, 12/06/2013 - 17:26Bitcion is not a New World Order tool. However the US Dollar is. Bitcoin is not a threat to Gold, nor does it replace the value in saving in Gold. Rather, it gives us the ability to buy and sell goods in services free of the control of central planners, governments, and banking monopolies.
What self respecting Libertarian, Anarchist, or Freedom supporter would be against a network of individuals coming together to build a tool that enables free exchange?
The Bitcion network has intrinsic value as it eliminates banking fees and simplifies the transfer of funds from one person to another. Bitcoins are just a unit of account within that network.
If you don't like Bitcoin, continue earning money in US Dollars and spending US dollars. See how that works out for you in the long run.

Just because someone doesnt speak up against bitcoin, doesnt mean they express other commodoties to fail, like precious metals, some of them I THINK wouldnt mind seing someone blend the idea that is bitcoin, with real world, in your hand commodities like PM

How to not look like an idiot:
Believe that Bitcoin is backed by nothing? Alright. Believe that Bitcoin is inferior to gold? Alright. Believe that Bitcoin has no intrinsic value? Alright.
But it is not FIAT.
Fiat means:
[by] an authoritative decree, sanction, or order
You may hate Bitcoin... but they ARE NOT FIAT.
Some of these comments... really? Words have meaning... you can't just categorize a currency you don't like fiat.
- Login to post comments
Sorry just plain wrong
It is so because I say so. If you make such a claim you must give some evidence why its true. So if you claim its not ([by] an authoritative decree, sanction, or order) then if you have a valid point you must show that bitcoin is not controlled.
I see its controled by those who control the government. I am not sure but I would bet that its controled by those who started and own the internet controls. If not just by those who make the rules. They can and will change the rules at any whim with justification that the Government made me do it.
So try again.

what a fallacy!
This is akin to saying counterfeit money should not be called "funny money" because the definition of 'funny' is humorous, and there is nothing humorous about counterfeit money.
It is so annoying when I hear this argument. Fiat is also a name of a car. This petty symantec does nothing to disguise the fact that BCs are not "sound currency." And before you even start - no I don't mean sound like a sound argument, or when you hear a sound. I am comparing "sound money" (backed by a commodity such as gold) to its' opposite - "fiat money."
Even by the loosest definition BC is fiat until it hits its' pre-programmed maximum. And even then, if the majority of users agree to raise the limit then they can. That means it is "fiat currency."

Are a Fiat currency. ITs not the government that creates Fiat currency, its Financial and commercial organizations. My Giant Eagle coupons are fiat money given value by the fact that Giant eagle accepts them. Bitcoin is essentially the same, just different commercial and financial interests accept them.

Who cares?
If Bitcoin floats yer boat, buy it.
If not, don't.
Isn't that the free market solution? No hand-wringing necessary.
This is what Ron Paul is talking about when he talks about competing currencies and permitting them.
If some "competing currencies" are shyte, they'll fail because no one buys them.
If some are perceived by the market as valuable, they'll succeed.
Either way, who cares? Buy what you like. Avoid what you don't. Let others do the same. The "invisible hand" will sort it out.

What you say may be
What you say may be true...but I've lived too long to think anything comes for free. Anyone using the new technology amid the technology wars as to who is going to be the king pins will be subjected to the whim of anonymous owners, players and controllers. I get the concept of bitcoin. What I don't get is allowing your wealth, fiat or not, to be salted away in cyberspace under the control of unknown players. I think we're incredibly naive to think we can trust the Internet for honest transactions and full access when needed. LOL

The definition of 'fiat'
Fiat: an arbitrary decree or pronouncement by an entity having absolute authority to enforce it: e.g. The king ruled by fiat.
The US dollar is a fiat currency not because it is backed by nothing, but because it is decreed by arbitrary law that it is "money" and you have to accept it on penalty.
There is no such law with regards to bitcoin.
That is the answer to your first question.
As for your second, what is this word 'didnt'?
- Login to post comments
Thank you for replying
Thank you for replying Michael.
I believe that BTC is a "proxy" fiat. For the same reason why I believe Gary Johnson was a fail proxy to Ron Paul.
With so much uncertainty in the market and the eventuality of a major correction coming, people are trying anything they can to feel secure and some are just trying to make a buck off others. Just because BTC isnt the reserve currency, doesnt meant that people dont have to jump into it.
Gold down, silver down,....must go to btc.
silver up, gold up....must go to stocks and bonds.
After reading zerohedge for a while now, Ive come to understand that the people are being pushed around into buying and converting their wealth into whatever tptb need them too.
Ergo, fiat.

Bitcoin is not fiat currency
BItcoin, like the US dollar is unbacked currency.
The dollar's backing is the force of law-because the government says so=fiat
Bitcoin's backing comes from the users' voluntary use not because the government or anyone else forced them to use it

FIAT, practice. An order of a judge, or of an officer, whose authority, to be signified by his signature, is necessary to authenticate the particular acts.
-Law Dictionary, John Bouvier, Revised Sixth Edition, 1856
FIAT, A short order or warrant of a judge or magistrate directing some act to be done; an authority issuing from some competent source for the doing of a legal act.
- Black's Law Dictionary, 1st Ed.
FIAT, n.
1. an authoritative decree, sanction, or order: a royal fiat.
2. an arbitrary decree or pronouncement, esp. by a person or group of persons having absolute authority to enforce it: to rule by fiat.
- Webster's College Dictionary 2010
If there is an issuing authority than it most definitely is fiat. The constitution is clear on what lawful money is and what the consequences of producing counterfeit money are.
All rights reserved and no rights waived.

Did you miss the main point that to be by "fiat", means the force of law, and not just some guy or even group of guys saying, "hey, let's do this?"

How to apply for Vietnam visa from United Kingdom?
A valid visa is required for all citizens of United Kingdom to visit Vietnam for any purposes from visiting friends and families to going on a business trip or leisure vacation. Fortunately, it is much easier these days for UK passport holders to apply for visa to Vietnam as there are two available ways to go about this matter.
- Applying for visa at Vietnam Embassy (traditional way, visa picked up at Vietnam Embassies) or,
- Apply for Visa on arrival with Vietnam-Visa.com (visa picked up at Vietnam International Airports).
In order to get visa to Vietnam, you may choose one of the two options above.
Travelers should keep in mind that these two options are quite different in terms of application procedure and applicable applicants. While visa on arrival is more convenient and less time-consuming, it is applicable for those who travel to Vietnam by air only.
Therefore, if you plan to travel to Vietnam by land or sea or wish to obtain a fully stamped visa on passports before departure, you should contact the nearest Vietnam embassy for visa application. It may take you 2-5 working days to get Vietnam Visa at Vietnam Embassy in United Kingdom. And, your passport has to be sent to Vietnam Embassy directly or by post.

There are two kinds of fee one should pay when applying for visa on arrival to Vietnam:
- Service fee (paid to the travel agency processing your visa approval letter), and
- Stamping fee (paid directly to the Immigration Officer at arrival airports to have your visa stamp).
- The fees quoted on the table above are for service fee only, not including stamping fee.

The food was not as I expected. Blackout did not prevent a lot o flight from entering the room. Service varied a lot. Some staff members were very kind, others not that much.
This hotel is 2 years old, the location and facilities are amazing. We visited the hotel already last year and were absolutely fascinated by the great service and delicious good.
Unfortunately high staff turnover due to poor management resulted in a deterioration in service and especially the food quality does not justify a 4star a rating or the price.
beautiful place friendly staff great spa and pool area children friendly this is not our last visit :-)
Beautiful architecture. Very nice clean - spacious rooms. Extended breakfast. Excellent restaurant waiter / catering staff - not food. Big free parking lot.
Dinner: - It takes too long to get the food on the table (apperantly lack of kitchen stuff). - The main dish was usually uneatable (3 nights) Also many complains from other guests. After calling out the main chef, he was very arogant and would not accept the critics. After all we got reinbursed for the dinners, which we didnt ask for, but its a nice gesture - The restaurant run out of particular wine, which is understandable but not for this kind of hotel. Wellnes: - not very kind stuff, - During lunch time spa front desk is closed, - no drinking water or tea in sauna area, - on some leaflets it says that wellness is open till 21:00 but it was till 20:00, therefore some of the friends got locked out in the outdoor jakuzzi (its small pool with very litle water massage) - Full ashtrays in the outdoor smoking area. Lobby Bar: - very nice area but with expressionless sometimes arogant barman. - had to pay for welcome drink 19€, for which we got card at the arrival, where it was clearly written "two welcome drinks'' and Picture of coctail next to it. Apperantly that was not valid for him and insist of charging the two coctails. After immediate report by the reception, polite and kind receptionist want to reinbursed the two drinks, but after dinner procedure I didnt have will and energy for that anymore, so I left 19€ and took the card for souvenir. At the end its not about the money but about the experience when you walk in 4 star +S hotel. Still asking myself what that S stands for?
excellent dinner and breakfast great room fitness and relax room this was an excellent experience (although I can imagine in peak season it can be too busy)
Very jung serviceteam tried to be funny at the evening dinner, actually turned out inpolite...not on purpose I suppose but it was...so just don't try.
Beautiful interiors, big rooms, good pool.
Dinner takes about 2 hours! It takes from 15 minutes to 45 minutes (!!) to make the order. Then you sitting and waiting for each course for 15-20 minutes. And this is with a standard menu with only 2 positions to choose with 2 or 3 choices in each! Except for this problem it's a very good hotel.
Almost perfect Great breakfast
Evening meal....looks very beautifull, outstanding presentation, service is great, ...but flavour wise ....big dissapointed ( contrast with the breakfast can not be bigger) Spend 3 night, 3 different evening meals, i Dont think i will be tempted to Try a half pension again
Room size Food Pool Bar Space Location
Nothing to dislike
Overall ambiance of the hotel. Very comfortable and welcoming. Spa was superb. Spacious rooms with plenty of storage space. Good self service breakfast and evening dinner.
Didn't really like the bathroom set up in the room as it had glass doors and side looking through into the room. There was however a curtain to pull over the glass side and the sliding door to the toilet area had been given a frosted covering. The room was hot during the night . Pillows too soft.
Everything! We like the hotel a lot!
We were quite disappointed with our half board; you should definitely find a different cook. It's a shame that the hotel with your quality is offering to guests this kind of tasteless food for a dinner. And it was not only ours plate returning almost untouched back to the kitchen. We were expecting culinary experience and everything we had during our 5-day stay there was just average or even worse. Fortunately there was a buffet with salads and great baguettes, so we didn't leave hungry. The other problem was your spa treatments; we try variety of your massages and facial treatment. However, for the price it costs you get only massage form young ladies without enough experiences, so we couldn't feel any difference before and after. Except one massage which did older lady with short hair cut, this one was great!
Food was excellent - great selection and attention to individual requests/allergies. Iterior design is just breathtaking and very many pieces of furniture that I wanted to take home! The "Swan" fotel in our appartment/room was so comfy that I need to get one immediately! Great selection of skiing areas around the hotel with Dachstein panorama terace nearby that is must see in this part of Austria.
I missed inner jacuzzi and overall in the welness area there could be a bit more attractions - E.G. separate small pool for babies as there is plenty of space unused there.
Nice, new hotel close to ski areas, 300m to skilift. Excellent breakfast and dinner. Polite, hard working staff. Relaxing sauna area.
Infrared sauna would be nice to have.

SMILE mass would like to thank all of the kids that have participated in the Adopt a Hydrant program. See the list.
In the wake of the record amount of snow we have received in a short amount of time, SMILE Mass is sponsoring Adopt a Hydrant. The town of Sudbury has over 950 hydrants of which about 95% have marker flags indicating their location. Many of the hydrants are buried under several feet of snow. SMILE Mass is challenging the kids in town (with adult supervision) to dig out the fire hydrants. To locate buried fire hydrants, look for the marker flags sticking out of the snow banks.
In case of fire, a shoveled out hydrant could help save a life!

Weather brought back memories of Vietnam
Once the weather gets up into the high 80s, regarding both temperature and relative humidity, you all are getting a free visit to the conditions we were exposed to daily in Vietnam.
It's doubtful that you understand, but it was really worse than this, because at night, it never changed, just stayed exactly like it was in the daytime. Throw in some nasty little biting insects and hello Vietnam.

States Fight Against Aggressive Driving
Aggressive driving is identified with red-light running, failing to yield, following too closely, and unsafe lane changing. Usually, aggressive driving occurs when two or more of these behaviors occur during a single, continuous driving period.
Arizona, Delaware, Nevada, and Rhode Island have laws specifically targeting aggressive drivers, while other states have legislation pending. Since the majority of states don't have specific aggressive driving laws, most target the problem with laws already passed, such as reckless driving, negligent driving, or vehicular manslaughter.
Since an aggressive driver commits a series of these acts together, many states are charging the driver with each of the observed offenses. This "makes a strong statement that this dangerous behavior will not be tolerated," said John Moffat, NAGHSR chairman. |
One way of holding drivers accountable is enforcement of traffic laws. "Frequent and well-publicized enforcement of these laws has been shown to be one of the most effective methods of reducing the problem," Moffat noted.
Thirty-one states indicated that they have some type of special aggressive driving enforcement effort, but methods vary significantly from state to state, according to NAGHSR.
Unmarked vehicles regularly patrol for aggressive driving in Arizona, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Washington. South Carolina and Washington also use -special enforcement teams on targeted roadways to concentrate on aggressive behavior.
H.E.A.T The High Enforcement of Aggressive Traffic (HEAT) Program aims to reduce traffic fatalities by changing attitudes about traffic safety laws. Objectives of the HEAT Program To affect existing travel speeds so they more closely match the posted speed limit. |

"Worked when I needed it"
Gave me the results I needed
none to report
Needed to uninstall Office 2010 64 bit and reinstall the 32 bit version due to compatibility issues with other software. Ran this little gem of a program and it correctly gave me the Office Pro Plus 2010 key from my registry even after the original 64 bit program had been uninstalled.
