That means that singalong hooks, memorable melodies, driving rhythms, close harmonies, and songs of the heart are all in the Luxury wheelhouse." - The Boston Globe"The Luxury are a band that you need to hear. In the Wake of What Won't Change has carved out the space between power britpop and big indie rock and filled it." -The Coalition of Taste-Making Afficionados "The Luxury is one of those bands that have that huge sound, that charisma, that draw and that intensity that really makes their set an experience rather than just another show." -PlaygroundBoston.com "A combination of old school and badass all bundled up." - Rockonboston.com "Boston's best rock band" - ryanssmashinglife.com "Boston's best rock band" - Worcester Telegram & Gazette "Arguably the best band in the city" - RockonBoston.com | GET IT NOW via our store page - CD or download.

In all fairness to director Len Wiseman, that comparison, gathered recently by Bloody-Disgusting, is in reference to his desire to make a trilogy of Gears of War films. It's in much the same way that one might refer to a box of Cheez-Its as "like a cheesier, more cracker-like Beatles box set" because they both happen to come in a box.
In other news that has us overflowing with confidence, Wiseman told B-D, "I suck at video games, it just takes me too long and I can't get the coordination of 'em. When I was on [Live Free Or] Die Hard, I had to choose some video game for the background in a scene with Kevin Smith. I was shown about a dozen games and told to 'Choose one to be in the background' and I said 'this one looks really, really cool whatever it is,' and it was Gears Of War."
Is that what passes for a "meet-cute" these days?

Mostly easily identifiable Diesel parts here ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Parts-fo...item5654083577 ) but I think the muff with the big hole in the top is for an AMCO 3.5 glow (you still will need the plug button though)

This 1970's West German engine has been featured before in this thread, but I thought there might be some interest in a user report.
The Suevia is 25cc of absolute delight. Pulls my Junior 112, (a scaled up Juinor 60 to guess what span) with the greatest of ease. It is a consistent 1 flick starter, just not always in the right direction. Side port and Schneurle is not a common combination but it works very well. For an average 10-15 minute flight it uses maybe 1/3 of the 20 oz tank. I've read tales of Suevia's reversing on idle, but I'm using a heavy 18x6 Master Classic and even with a sub 1,000 tick over I haven't been able to provoke a reverse so far. Fly more oldies!!! |

Just recently, I bought some old British modelling magazines from the early 1950's (AeroModeller and Model Aircraft) and infuriatingly, some previous owner had clipped pages out randomly. I would just start to read an article, when (bugger) the following page or pages were missing. Luckily there was help at hand - a genial gentleman in England named David Lloyd Jones (how British can you get !) has copies of just about every modelling magazine ever printed, and can supply either the whole (hard copy) magazine, or as in my case, selected pages which can be scanned and emailed to you. Not just UK magazines either, but most US ones as well, right back to issue 1, #1 ! If that's not enough, David can supply you with full size building plans of most models issued by these magazines, as well as kit plans too ! This guy is a marvel, and he takes PayPal. What are you waiting for ? Rules state that I cannot give you David's email here, but if you contact me direct, the secret is yours ! Either that or Google "David Lloyd Jones Aeromodeller"

Although not topping my list of projects, I've got a Frog 250 with these parts missing. Spraybar, spring & nut are there, so np... I am pretty sure the hook & needle are the same for '250 & '500... |

OK Bosse, here's a scan of a Frog 500 needle hook. The following dimensions are the best I can measure, using a sliding vernier gauge:
Length = 31.7 mm Width = 6.1 mm Thickness = 1 mm Bill, I have a spare Frog 500 head. Looks very nice, but it has two defects: the plug thread has been repaired with a small alloy insert (would be invisible on the engine with a plug installed), and one side fin is chipped. All the other fins are perfect, including the tiny ones. |

Hey guys I am brand new here and just recieved my concealed carry license.
I have been around guns my whole life but due to recent events here in our town and my recent marraige I feel it my duty to carry for my protection and that of my wife, I live in Blacksburg, Va which I used to think was beyond the reach of most crime but with the William Morva case the Va Tech massacre and a recent hit and run allong with the increase of meth and crack use I just dont feel safe anymore and dont want to become the next victim.
I have been looking around the site some and have a very general question that I hope doesnt spur a big arguement fest, I need to narrow my gun selection down a bit, I work where I have to tuck my shirt in all the time and I tuck my shirt in even when I go out on the weekends, so I think pocket carry may be the answer for me, I mostly wear relax fit jeans. How do you carry if you have to tuck your shirt in all the time, I could wear an IWB holster but I dont think I would feel comfortable with possible tangles untucking my shirt etc.
Now on to my next question I have to narrow gun choices down these are on my current wish list.
Kahr PM9
Sig P239
Sig P232
Glock 26
Glock 27
Are there anyothers I should consider, I like the 642 for it's ease of pocket carry, but I'm not sure I am comfortable with carrying 5 rounds that arent so easy to reload....
Like I said not trying to start a debate just trying to make some good decisions from mass knowledge.

John Bogle has pushed forward along his own path.
The founder of Vanguard Group, the world's largest mutual fund firm, has relentlessly championed an investment vehicle that he pioneered decades ago.
Bogle was once clearly in the minority. But his unwavering loyalty to index funds over actively managed funds has enriched him and multitudes of followers — and forced other fund companies, including some active-management titans, to add index-fund options to their menus.
John Bogle turned Vanguard Group into a giant while writing 10 books, including his 1999 best-seller, "Common Sense on Mutual Funds." AP View Enlarged Image
The actively managed Contrafund (valued at $107 billion), for instance, is still Fidelity's top dog, but the Boston giant's Spartan 500 index fund ($74 billion) is coming up fast.
In a country where the big score sets the tone, the patience and steady hand of index tracking is a hard sell. Bigger rewards can be had if actively managed dice roll right. But index funds are generally a cheaper investment, and over the long haul they tend to outperform the average actively managed fund. Bogle has driven these truths to the top of his field, even when the field tried to shout him down.
On The Rise
Passive index trackers that weight by market cap or target investment opportunities in specific financial markets, then stick with them through all market conditions, are as popular as they've ever been. They comprise 22% of all mutual fund assets, says investment research firm Morningstar (NASDAQ:MORN) .
That number might sound unimpressive, but consider: Investments in index funds and ETFs have outpaced inflow into actively managed funds in recent years, according to Charles Schwab (NYSE:SCHW), with Bogle's Vanguard Institutional Index Fund — now $168.22 billion — leading the tidal change. In all, Vanguard Group ranks No. 1 among fund families, with $2.6 trillion in net assets.
The real gravitational pull has been Bogle. You can reference his 10 books — collectively, they've sold over 880,000 copies — including his 1999 masterwork, "Common Sense on Mutual Funds," an elucidation on index tracking.
You can point to his 1999 Woodrow Wilson Award from Princeton University for "distinguished achievement in the nation's service," his 2004 Time magazine ranking among the world's most influential people, and his chairmanship of the board at the National Constitution Center, self-billed as "America's most hands-on history museum." (Successors in that post include Presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton).
You can marvel at Bogle's contributions to the investment community, including, at age 85 (still vigorous after a heart transplant in 1996), an active lecturing schedule and recent articles in the Financial Analysts Journal and the Journal of Portfolio Management.
Or you can look at the breakdown of how investors invest. "Investors have withdrawn $500 billion from actively managed funds (including ETFs) and put $600 billion into index funds over the past five years," Bogle told IBD. "That's a trillion-dollar shift. It's astonishing, and it's not going to stop."
Born in Montclair, N.J., just five months before the Wall Street crash of 1929, Bogle treaded the Great Depression's tumult with aplomb. His family struggled financially, but he eased the burden by earning a full scholarship to the Blair Academy, a prestigious prep school in New Jersey.
His undergraduate degree from Princeton University led him to Wellington Management, where he thrived. Before long, CEO and fellow Princeton alum Walter Morgan made him president of what was one of the largest private investment-management firms in the world. Bogle was also named chairman of Wellington Fund, which invested in both stocks and bonds, and as such was a pioneer in the balanced mutual fund field.
A disastrous merger with a Boston-based investment firm that prized stock value over a company's intrinsic value — "shortsighted, naive, opportunistic and really stupid," Bogle recalled — ended his tenure atop the management company. It also refocused the man on the things that he wanted to do differently at Wellington Fund.
By 1974, he'd struck out on his own and created Vanguard, focusing on index-tracking tactics that the Wellington Fund eschewed.
The next year Bogle, influenced greatly by American economists Eugene Fama and Burton Malkiel, both champions of long-term investing, founded the Vanguard 500 Index Fund, the nation's first index mutual fund. Under Bogle, Vanguard grew to become the world's largest mutual fund company.
Managed since 1991 by Michael Buek, it's no longer "Jack Bogle's Vanguard," according to Morningstar, which gives the fund a B stewardship rating on an A-F scale, "but it's still a fine steward of shareholders' wealth."
Despite decades of detractors, Bogle has clearly won many followers with his index approach — including some believers who still can't completely separate themselves from active management.
Jon Ten Haagen, founder of New York-based Ten Haagen Financial Group, isn't exactly a devotee, preferring actively managed products. Yet even Ten Haagen — another Blair Academy grad who's mingled with Bogle at the Princeton Club in New York — lauds the index king.
"The man is brilliant," Ten Haagen said. "His influence is tremendous. And his success proves there are an awful lot of people who agree with him."
Bogle's love-hate relationship with other investors extends beyond U.S. borders. Jan Dymond, director of public affairs for the Investment Funds Institute of Canada (IFIC), is quick to note that her organization is heavy into active management and that such portfolios "are certainly the dominant product in Canada." But she can't deny Bogle's influence up north or his success rate.
At the end of November, according to the IFIC, Canadian investment in active-management products easily outpaced investment in index funds — $986 billion to $56 billion. Still, those index-fund investments, according to Dymond, enjoy "an extremely good growth rate. .. . There's room for a range of products in the investment marketplace. We see index funds as a strong complementary product."
Mark Hebner, president of Irvine, Calif.-based wealth-management firm Index Fund Advisors, references the long run that Bogle's "The Little Book of Common Sense Investing" has enjoyed as the No. 1 investing book on Amazon.com and says the index king's brilliance stems from the simple fact that "markets are efficient."
The Patriarch
Bogle — a father of six and grandfather many times over who lives in Bryn Mawr, Pa., with his wife, Eve — is hard-pressed to say which of his myriad accomplishments ranks highest on his personal list — slowly converting the actively managed set, starting Vanguard or selling all those books.
The fact that his "Little Book of Common Sense Investing" has such high standing since it debuted in 2007 would be more impressive, he noted, if it were No. 1 in a more popular grouping: "I don't know how many books on Amazon have been at the top of their genre for that long, but the mutual funds genre is not exactly the 'Fifty Shades of Grey' genre."
Bottom line, Bogle believes that index funds will become more popular than actively managed products. "You've got to give it time to happen ... this industry won't be converted overnight," he noted, with a wry nod to the four decades he's spent promoting index funds.
Bogle's belief in doing what he considers right is why, from early on, he's shared his successes with the people and places that got him there; Ten Haagen calls Bogle "the most philanthropic person I've ever met, and a great contributor to Blair Academy over the years."
Bogle likes to say his basic rule of investing — be satisfied to get your fair share — is simple: "The brokerage firm is based on 'Don't just stand there, do something.' My rule is 'Don't do something, just stand there.' People understand things better when they're put in simple terms."
And it's why the man will be comfortable with the verdict when history passes its final judgment.
"The only things I ever brought to the table were common sense and determination," Bogle said. "A detractor once said I also have an uncanny ability to recognize the obvious. That's true, but here's the irony: The obvious is something anybody can recognize, and it doesn't take an uncanny ability.
"I've done what I've done, and it's up to other people to judge it. So what do I want on my tombstone? 'He did his best,' I guess."

Leakages rising steadily — from 24% in 1999-2000 to a little under 47% in 2011-12.
A bench headed by CJ Dattu allowed that the new CBI chief will be allowed to oversee the 2G cases.
It also alleges that Sinha forced officers probing the coal scam not to register FIRs in cases where PEs had been filed.
The meeting fuelled speculation over his continuance in the post in the wake of SC removing him from 2G scam probe.
The government has not made any progress in the selection of the next CBI chief since the post of the Leader of Opposition is vacant.
Lalit, in a letter dated June 30, 2014, sent a strongly worded reply to the CBI against the suggestion.
The 2G probe, he said, was at the trial stage even before he was appointed Director and there was no role for him to monitor the probe.
Special prosecutor alleged that Sinha attempted to scuttle investigation in one of the 2G cases.
Allowing the CBI plea would be in the interest of both the accused as well as the prosecution, the court said.
Congress member, who Rai says helped calculate losses, joined BJP.
ED, in its charge sheet, had alleged that the accused were involved in a Rs 200-crore money transaction.
The special court taking cognizance of the chargesheet filed, has issued summons to Dayanidhi Maran,
Ranjith Sinha's meeting were recorded in a visitors' register at his New Delhi residence and leaked to media and others by a whistleblower last month.
The allegation on Kanimozhi is that she and ex Telecom Minsiter A Raja had arranged the illegal gratification of Rs 200 crore.

The latter argument has been made by a French MEP as an argument in favour of the EU. Also, Twitter provides irreverent images of Silvio Berlusconi upon news he is to perform four hours of community service a week as a penalty for tax evasion. Finally, "The Atlantic" has identified the world's first "smiley" in a 17th century poem.

Zynga Q&A: Gambling, Facebook, Sinking Share Price (Update 1)
Ciaccia: What about plans for console gaming? Are there any plans for that or is everything going to stay on mobile platform or Web?
Gupta: No plans for console. We're focused on both Web and mobile at this point.
Ciaccia: Acquisitions. The latest one was OMGPop a few months ago. Social gaming companies are seemingly popping up overnight. Does Zynga have any plans to continue adding companies as they see fit, or is growth going to become organic at this point?
Gupta: So we are always looking at and evaluating opportunities that will span the spectrum of IP-related acquisitions, talent related acquisitions, and technology related acquisitions. The fair majority of them have been talent related acquisitions. OMGPop, which was our most recent acquisition, was an acquisition we did around a specific franchise, which has a strong team behind it, and other games. But for the most part, they've been talent related. Going forward, we'll evaluate opportunities, but we'll do so with strong financial discipline.
Ciaccia: That brings me to my next question. The rumored price point for OMGPop was somewhere around $200 million and was at the height of the popularity of Draw Something. Draw Something's popularity has come down. Does that signify financial discipline, or is that something that in retrospect, was "buying at the top?" Gupta: So, Draw Something, or OMGPop is the second acquisition where we actually acquired IP or a franchise, with Words With Friends being the first one a couple of years ago. We take a long-term view on these things. In OMGPop, we saw an interesting brand and franchise in Draw Something and the team behind that. With Draw Something, they had some interesting turn-based mechanics and the player generated content with the drawings that were being shared virally. I think that's also another interesting aspect of social gaming. So again, we take a long-term view shortly after buying Draw Something. We have a joint release with some of the folks here at Zynga, which improved some of the sharing across. We've recently now launched Draw Something in multiple languages. I think we added something like 12 additional languages and we have the release on Sina Weibo. We think about this much more long-term. We think this is a game and a franchise of which we can build upon.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Here are all the Week 6 quarterback ratings and commentary from ESPN Page 2's Snap Judgment, featuring yours truly. This week we ask if Matt Hasselbeck is good enough to win the Super Bowl and if McNabb-to-Owens has become the best QB-WR combination in football, plus I have some extended comments on Ben Roethlisberger and DPAR for each quarterback who played yesterday.
15 Oct 2004, 10:11am by Aaron Schatz
Well, here's a shocker. Mel Kiper is being let go by ESPN because they couldn't agree on language in his contract. I assume that Sporting News, SI.com, et al. now go after him, but isn't a large part of Kiper's value his being on set during the draft broadcast?

It feels like more than ever the NFL is split between teams that can score at will but can't stop anyone, and teams that can play defense but can't score themselves. Are there really that many more unbalanced teams this season than in years past? It depends how you look at it according to Aaron in this article reprinted from Tuesday's edition of the New York Sun. Possibly the first article about the NFL ever inspired by a Philip Glass composition.
13 Oct 2004, 12:10pm by Aaron Schatz
The latest mathematical analysis of NFL coaching decisions from our friend William Krasker takes a closer look at Seattle's clock management snafus against St. Louis (Russell is right, they should have run three times and punted) as well as the Tuna's controversial decision to go for it on 4th-and-1 at the Dallas 43-yard line in the fourth quarter. I also like William's analysis of Denver's 4th-and-goal play at the Carolina goal line.

Here are the Football Outsiders team efficiency ratings after Week 5, along with Aaron's usual commentary for the math-o-phobic. This week brings us the first adjustments for opponent, and those adjustments separate the top four teams in the league. Philadelphia has played a difficult schedule, New England an average schedule, and Seattle and the Jets easy schedules. Plus more on which teams look better or worse than the stats indicate so far, and TV announcers who can't tell a quarterback from an offensive tackle.

Football Outsiders -- still home of the "official unofficial" TMQ discussion thread. This week, Gregg Easterbrook introduces you to seven guys who get paid for doing nothing, discusses possible football-related presidential debate questions, and ponders the Single Most Fouled Up Play in NFL history. Hint: It involves the Buffalo offensive line.
11 Oct 2004, 12:43am by Aaron Schatz
One of the more popular statistics for rating the best NFL teams, particularly with gambling touts, is yards per point. It's come up on this site recently, particularly regarding the 2001 Patriots. Does it really recognize an offense's ability to efficiently turn drives into touchdowns, or a defense's ability to "bend but not break" by keeping points allowed down even if the other team drives down the field? How does it compare to DVOA, the play-by-play breakdown rating we use here at Football Outsiders?
06 Oct 2004, 11:30pm by Aaron Schatz
In this week's strategy analysis, our buddy William Krasker looks at the "surprise" onside kick by Tennessee, a play also discussed in Tuesday's TMQ. Other issues discussed: Was Jacksonville correct to go for broke with the 40-yard touchdown on 4th-and-1? (All plays look good if they work, but was it the right gamble?) What the heck was Kansas City doing with its timeouts in the first quarter Monday night? And, what I thought might have been the strangest, most pointless decision of the weekend: How wussy was it for San Francisco to punt from the St. Louis 30-yard line?
05 Oct 2004, 01:58pm by Aaron Schatz
In today's TMQ, Gregg Easterbrook wonders at Emmitt Smith's first career pass, celebrates Randy Hymes and Jason Dunn, and properly delivers the Worst Blocks award to the Buffalo offensive line for the play where they stood around with blank looks on their faces while Richard Seymour took the ball from Drew Bledsoe and lumbered into the end zone.

Here are the Football Outsiders team efficiency ratings after Week 4, along with Aaron's usual commentary for the math-o-phobic. Which teams are living up to our preseason projections, and which are not? Can looking at the past tell us anything about which teams will improve or fall apart over the course of the season? And does the win at Baltimore mean there is hope for the Kansas City Chiefs?

Last name: Whitaker
This long-established surname is of Anglo-Saxon origin, and is locational from any of the various places so called in England, though the derivations of the placenames are slightly different. Whitacre in Warwickshire and High Whitaker in Lancashire are derived from the Olde English pre 7th Century "hwit" meaning "white", and "acer" meaning cultivated land; hence, "white field"; while both Whiteacre in Kent and Wheatacre in Norfolk derive their first element from the Olde English "hwaete", wheat, and therefore mean "wheat field". Locational surnames were usually acquired by a local landowner, or by the lord of the manor, and especially by those former inhabitants of a place who had moved to another area, usually in search of work, and were thereafter best identified by the name of the birthplace. An interesting namebearer, recorded in the "Dictionary of National Biography" was Joseph Whitaker (1820 - 1895), who founded the magazine, "the Book Seller", and started the annual publication of "Whitakers Almanac" in 1868. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Richard de Wetacre, which was dated 1177, in the "Pipe Rolls of Norfolk", during the reign of King Henry 11, known as "The Builder of Churches", 1154 - 1189. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.© Copyright: Name Origin Research www.surnamedb.com 1980 - 2015

I was able to post a photo album tonight of the Summer mini book that I made this past weekend. I had purchased the Ali Edwards kit from Cocoa Daisy in July and she provided a few different examples of albums and layouts you could make from the kit. So I totally scraplifted this, and I love how it came out! Ali had structured the album into 3 sections for a vacation album, but the 3 sections worked out perfectly for the Summer, one section per month.

Fitch Rates El Paso County Hospital District, Texas' $155MM GOs 'AA-'; Upgrades Outstanding.
AUSTIN, Texas -- Fitch Ratings assigns a rating of 'AA-' to El Paso County Hospital District (the district), Texas' $120 million General Obligation (GO) bonds, series 2008A and $35 million GO refunding bonds, Series 2008B. Both series are scheduled to sell via negotiation during the week of April 14. Fitch also upgrades the district's outstanding debt to 'AA-' from 'A+', comprised of $13.2 million GO bonds, $120.0 million combination tax and revenue certificates of obligation, and $22.3 million public property finance contractual obligations. The Rating Outlook is Stable.The bonds are direct obligations of the district and are payable from an annual ad valorem tax, levied within limits described by law. Overall, the property tax rate cannot exceed 75.0 cents per $100 taxable assessed valuation (TAV) for both operations and maintenance (O&M) and debt service.
The upgrade to 'AA-' is based on the district's notably improved financial performance and management, expanding and diverse tax base, ample taxing margin, and very low direct debt burden with no future debt plans. Furthermore, the district is poised to become a major medical presence with the addition of Texas Tech University's new four year medical school and the district's own new children's hospital. Offsetting risks include the slow debt pay out rate, poor payor mix, below average wealth levels and operational risks of a new children's hospital (although evidence of a severely underserved pediatric population somewhat offsets this as a credit concern). A new executive team installed in 2005 moved quickly to remedy the district's past financial structural imbalance by adjusting staffing levels, controlling supply costs, and improving fee collection efforts. Medium term goals include improving the district's payor mix by improving facilities and expanding service lines which will be aided by the new medical school. Fitch believes the hospital will benefit from a potential windfall in new patients from the future influx of 27,000 additional troops at nearby Ft. Bliss.
The El Paso County Hospital District covers a very large area, totaling 1,058 square miles, and operates the only public hospital located in its primary service area. The R.E. Thomason General Hospital (the hospital) is a 327-bed acute care facility owned by the district with the legal responsibility to provide medical and hospital care to all the El Paso County's residents regardless of their ability to pay. As a result, the district's Medicaid and self-pay component are very large at about 25% and 26%, respectively, in fiscal 2007. The hospital also serves as the primary teaching hospital for 3rd and 4th year students of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center in El Paso which will become a four-year medical school in 2009. The university's $100 million medical school will be adjacent to the hospital and the university's $30 million medical research facility that opened in 2006.
The current offering will fund the construction of the region's first children's hospital. The district will build and own the physical structure and then lease it to a separately licensed non-profit children's hospital with an independent board of governors. Due in part to substantial pay-as-you-go capital outlays of $13 million - $15 million, the district's direct debt is very low at only $355 per capita and under 1% of TAV. Principal amortization is slow at 21% in ten years. Overall ratios are manageable after adjusting local school district debt for substantial amounts of state support due to the area's low wealth levels.
The debt service tax rate impact of the current offering is projected at a modest 2.0 cents per $100 TAV under reasonable TAV growth assumptions. The district's current total tax rate equals 17.2 cents per $100 TAV, therefore ample margin remains below the tax cap of 75 cents per $100 TAV. TAV has been growing notably by a compound average annual of 9% over the last five fiscal years, including double-digit increases in fiscal years 2007 and 2008. The district's tax base is diverse with its top ten taxpayers comprising less than 5% of total values.
After posting a large $13 million operating loss in fiscal 2004 due to state budget cuts to Medicaid and certain managed care eligibility changes, the district's finances have improved substantially. Staffing level adjustments and cost controls by the new leadership reduced an initial fiscal 2005 budget gap from $24 million to a $5.1 million loss. Subsequently, fiscal 2006 and 2007 posted large operating gains of nearly $16 million and $39 million, respectively. As a result, the district's cash position increased to a solid $135 million or 180 days of operating expenses in fiscal 2007, well in excess of management's liquidity goal to maintain 75-90 days cash on hand. Fiscal 2008 interims point to another operating gain. Operating revenues include O&M tax levies that comprise almost 15% of total revenues in fiscal 2007.
El Paso County includes the City of El Paso (GOs rated 'AA-'), the sixth largest city in Texas. The county's estimated 2007 population of 755,085 has grown by 11% from its 2000 census level. Along with the addition of 27,000 troops to Ft. Bliss, military family members are expected to total another 25,000-30,000. About two-thirds of the additional troops are expected to live off-base. To accommodate such rapid growth, one of the largest land owners in the county, the El Paso Public Services Board (PSB, revenue bonds rated 'AA'), has developed a 5,800 acre mixed-use project in northeast El in which 1,600 units of affordable housing will be developed in the first phase. Other higher value master planned developments are underway or in the planning stages. As a result, building permit values have continued to surge, reaching $1B in fiscal 2007.
The county's large $31 billion tax base is diverse and starting to grow beyond the typically modest rates of the past, increasing by over $3 billion in each of the last three fiscal years. Furthermore, the relocation of air cavalry and armored aviation units to Ft. Bliss is attracting high-technology companies for both services and research and development. As a result of increasing demand, the average market value of single family homes rose 16% in 2006, the highest rate in Texas and sixth highest in the country; notably, the average home price of $128,000 was still affordable compared to national averages. Recent unemployment rates in the county remain above the state average but have trended down to record lows, totaling 5.6% in December 2007. Major additions to the city's retail, commercial and healthcare sectors should maintain this favorable trend.

Wallpaper...love it or hate it?
We built about 30 years ago. I don't know if the wall formica is even still made. I don't like to clean tile, so the formica was an alternative, and easy to keep clean.
Now that I think of it, when we had the kitchen done about 3 years ago, we asked for an easy to care for backsplash, and some kind of laminate was used there.
edited to add: I did some googling, and formica is still being used on walls. I never hear of it though.
Quoting bhwrn1:Interesting, I have never heard of having formica on the walls.
Quoting Bmat:No we don't. I am not a fan. We do have wall formica half way up our bathroom walls to cut down on maintenance and to make cleaning easy.
Our house had wallpaper in the bathrooms and kitchen when we bought it...can't stand removing the stuff.
Quoting bhwrn1:
Not a fan of wallpaper. We finally removed the last of the wallpaper that was in our house a few weeks ago when we started to redo the bathroom. I can't stand the stuff. I will never put it up. It was here when we moved in. What a PITA to take down.
