"My first quality IEM purchase was the Hifiman RE-400 when they first came out. I was used to low end Skullcandy sets at the time, and I really wanted to see what "reference sound" sounded like for a reasonable price of under $100. At the time, I felt anything above that price was absurd for me to purchase. From the first listen, the RE-400 showed me what quality sounded like. I was..." --bhazard

Water board hamstrung
Lack of state appointments, quorum amount to inaction
A dry dock investor echoed O'Leary's frustration.
"The water board either is undermanned or underfunded," said Christina Sullivan, who supports the new enterprise as an economic stimulus. "It's really starting to filter down and affect people who want to work."
Nine regional boards police water quality in conjunction with a statewide body. The top goal stated on the agency's website is to be "effective, innovative, and responsive."
More than 44 percent of Schwarzenegger's 2,215 appointed slots on 330 boards and commissions were vacant or occupied by people on expired terms at the end of June. That translates to 335 vacant positions and nearly 650 board members who stayed on after their terms ended.
O'Leary figured his situation has been repeated statewide, creating an undertow for California's economy.
"If I can't do business, I can't pay taxes," he said.
Schwarzenegger has appointed six people to the nine-seat board in San Diego, which has a history of vacancies.
The positions can be difficult to fill because they are not high-profile and require heavy technical reading. King said they also include strict conflict-of-interest requirements that prevent experts employed by cities and counties from serving, even though two board slots are designated for city and county interests. Both are vacant at the San Diego board.
"There is just a complete void right there," King said. "We really need their perspective."

Gorgeous Mother of Pearl tile- just want to share

I came across this website earlier today and I had to share. Take a look at the beautiful mother of pearl tile on their gallery or product pages. The b&m store is located in Oxfordshire, England but they have a sample program and do ship internationally, according to the website. This is just one of many plain, decorative and natural mop tiles they offer.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Why game day just got better
Bombers hope changes will become fan favourites
Wade Miller has seen to it that Winnipeg Blue Bombers fans will have more fun this season.
How the on-field product pans out remains to be seen, but the football club has made a number of subtle -- but significant -- moves this off-season to improve the fan experience at Investors Group Field.
For starters, tailgating will start 21/2 hours prior to kickoff in the plaza outside Gate 2 and will feature a DJ, giant inflatables for the kids and Bombers' alumni signing autographs.
Once the game gets going, fans on the 200 level will be able to pick up their favourite beverages at one of two additional bars while still being able to see the game on the big screen. (If you want to sit down, a few seats from Canad Inns Stadium have been installed.)
-- Bombers president and CEO Wade Miller (below), at Investors Group Field
Menus at each concession now offer healthy and gluten-free options, such as grilled chicken ranch salad, vegetables and fruit trays, in addition to traditional football game fare.
There are also several loges (raised level of seats) throughout the stadium's north and south ends that come complete with bar-level counter space for groups of 12 to 16 people.
Fans who find their smartphones don't have enough juice for all the selfies they're planning to take during the game can recharge them at one of five charging stations throughout the stadium. Fans might be able to see their tweets on the Bombers' Twitter account on the big screen, too.
"The football game is a big part of it, but we want to improve the whole experience of coming to Investors Group Field. You can start 21/2 hours before kickoff, then enjoy an amazing game, and we have activities after the game as well," he said.
Once the final whistle has blown, kids and other fans who have always wondered what it's like to run around on the football field will get that chance. They can take pictures while they're down there, too.
(The team will, of course, keep the numbers at a manageable level.) Mascots Buzz and Boomer and the cheer team will be on the field and some players will come out and sign autographs.
For adults looking to enjoy another beverage, the food and liquor outlets in the north end, including the Rum Hut, will remain open for an hour after the game has ended. In the past, liquor sales ended after the third quarter.
"We have families that want to come to the games, and we have guys who want to come with their buddies. That's what the north end zone is for," Miller said.
The Bombers will promote the responsible consumption of alcohol through their new designated-driver program, run in conjunction with Manitoba Public Insurance and Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries. The park-and-ride and bus services will be available for these fans, too.
Other changes include more Mini-Donut stands for fans in search of some dessert after their Shawarma Khan sandwiches, Burrito Splendido tacos or Salisbury House Nips and smokers will be able to take drinks outside while they have a cigarette.
The Bombers have also partnered with Red River Co-op for a special section in the south end. Red River will sell game-day merchandise and tickets.
"These are really small things that we're doing and they don't come at a big price tag. We believe it will increase the fan experience when people come to Investors Group Field," Miller said.

LETTER: Help Stamp Out Hunger on May 11
Kevin McArdle, Henderson
Saturday, May 11, marks the 21st anniversary of one of America's great days of giving — the National Association of Letter Carriers Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive.
Each year on the second Saturday in May, letter carriers across the country collect from our patrons nonperishable food donations. These donations go directly to local food pantries to provide food to people in need, and there are many in Henderson who need our help.
Last year, more than 70 million pounds of food was collected nationwide, feeding an estimated 30 million people. In 2012 more than 18,000 pounds was collected by your local Henderson city and rural letter carriers.
Our food drive's timing is pivotal as well. Food banks and pantries often receive the majority of their donations during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons. By springtime, many pantries are depleted, entering the summer low on supplies at a time when many school breakfasts and lunch programs are not available.
Participating in this year's Letter Carrier National Food Drive is simple. Just leave a nonperishable food donation in a bag by your mailbox on Saturday, May 11, and your letter carrier will pick it up.
I invite you to join in America's great day of giving and help "stamp out hunger."
Kevin McArdle is food drive coordinator for Henderson

master bedroom color ideas
I need to come up with a color palette to go with the "inspiration piece" a matelasse bedspread from LL Bean in a color called "Faded Indigo"--the color of faded blue jeans. The 14x20' bedroom opens onto the pool, hottub and woods through triple french doors--nice, bright lighting. the furniture is a late 50's suite in medium dark wood, very spare, horizontal lines. I'm having trouble grasoing this project because our color tastes diverge extremely--I gravitate toward bright saturated colors, whereas he favors neutrals, hates decorative pillows and would just as soon forget about the whole thing. But he loves the bedspread he picked out....
Any ideas?
I'd go with a soft yellow...that denim blue and yellow look fab together and a really soft yellow may be neutral enough for him.

|Glyen Holmes
Dothan, AL
Glyen Holmes is the founder of the New North Florida Cooperative (NNFC), an organization whose goal is to bring small farmers together with local schools in order to provide healthy meals for students, and to give farmers a viable market for their products. The success of his cooperative is a great example of how the farm to school movement is breathing new life into rural farms, while also promoting healthy eating habits to school children.
Glyen Holmes has been interested in and involved with agriculture for most of his life. He grew up in rural Mississippi, where he was surrounded by small farming operations. During his childhood, he and his family members worked the land on neighboring farms for additional income.
After high school, Holmes attended Alcorn State University outside Lorman, Mississippi, where he received his Bachelor of Science in Agronomy. Upon graduating, he was hired by the USDA as a natural resource conservationist. In 1992, he was transferred from Mississippi to northern Florida and took on the role of an outreach coordinator. "My job was to get to small farmers and show them some of the programs that the USDA had that farmers could use," Holmes said.
In 1995 while living in Florida, Holmes met with a woman named Pearl Holmes, who had a farmer cooperative in Jackson County that was struggling to stay in business. Glyen was interested in partnering with Pearl to revitalize the cooperative, but he knew he would need to find a market for the cooperative's produce to be sold at a fair price, or else the operation would not succeed.
Then in 1996, Holmes met J'Amy Peterson, Food Service Director of the Gadsden County School District in Florida. Peterson was strong advocate of including fresh fruits and vegetables into children's school lunches, and was also a supporter of local family farming operations. Holmes recognized the potential success that could be had with a partnership between the cooperative, and schools in Gadsden County. "We were looking for a market that could be tailor-made for small farmers," Holmes said, "and we found it in farm to school."
Later that year, Holmes formed the New North Florida Cooperative as a pilot project to test how practical connecting farmers with schools could really be. His concept became so successful, that in 2000, he left the USDA to focus his energy entirely on working with the NNFC.
According to Holmes, the NNFC helps small farmers in three major ways: by training, processing and distributing their products. The organization trains small farmers on how to successfully grow produce that schools can use. Then, the NNFC takes the vegetables from the farmers to their headquarters in Marianna, Florida, where cooperative members cut, wash and package them. Lastly, the NNFC delivers the packaged goods to the schools they have partnered with so the can be easily prepared and served to students.
"Lots of the money that small farmers should be getting goes to processors," Holmes noted. "We go to the schools with the produce and set up a fair price," Holmes said. These negotiations ensure that the farmers who grow the food receive a fair wage for their hard work. The NNFC's reputation of professionalism and quality is making more and more schools look into the program, which gives more and more farmers the opportunity to get into farming as a career.
Besides making sure farmers earn a fair wage, the NNFC gives aspiring farmers a chance to start growing by making it more affordable to participate in the co-op. "A lot of farmers can't afford to distribute their own products. We do that for them," said Holmes. Also, the NNFC provides essential growing and packaging equipment to farmers who may not have been able to finance on their own.
Currently, the NNFC distributes over 750,000 lbs of produce annually to schools all over central and northern Florida. Their main crops are collard greens, green beans and sweet potato sticks, which are cut like carrot sticks and can be dipped in sauces to make them more kid-friendly. Children benefit by having fresh, healthy veggies in their lunches, and the whole area benefits by keeping the money that the schools spend on school lunches in their community.
Holmes is proud of the fact that the success of the NNFC is paving the way for more farmers and co-ops nationwide to be able to utilize the farm to school model. "We were one of the first groups in the country to do what we are doing with farm to school, and now it is becoming a national movement," he said.
Holmes sees a bright future for the farm to school movement, especially when it comes to helping minority farmers flourish. The last USDA Census of Agriculture found that fewer than 30,600 farmers in the nation were African-American, compared to the 233,000 black farmers counted in 1920. Programs like the NNFC seek to reverse this trend by providing minority farmers with a niche market, and giving them the tools they need to farm--tools they may not have been able to finance on their own.
The NNFC has spread throughout not only Florida, but also Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee and Texas. Holmes said, "Success comes when farmers approach the farm to school idea as group, and not as individuals," and he is sure that if small farmers can work together, then farm to school can be an option for small farmers nation wide to make a good living off their land.

Staff is super friendly. Rooms were cleaned. Had hoped we would have gotten a larger room for rollaway (not available on 2 queen rooms) but not the first time kids had to sleep on floor. Pool was cool temperature wise but they loved it anyway. Older folks, not so much.

Our time at the volley ball tournamentPosted Mar 7, 2015
Pros: Good location and had a nice swimming pool and hot tub. Provided a newspaper and computer connection. Had a nice hot fire place going.
Cons: The heater to our room made too much noise. It would be nice to have continental breakfast.
Location: We came for the girls volley ball tournament so that is about all we did.
Over all we had a good stay. The hotel was clean and had ample parking spaces.

Gosh It's Hot!Posted Dec 16, 2014 on Hotels.com
Stayed overnight to attend a Christmas party with friends. I've stayed at the Hilton on numerous occasions. I've always noticed, though, that the lobby is way too hot in the winter months, not sure why, but it is... it's comical in a way. The ONLY issue this time was that they put me in a physically challenged room... The hand-held shower head wouldn't stay in the same position (it's on one of those sliding fixtures that can be adjusted to any height), so I was crouching the entire time. The bathtub wouldn't drain, so I played "leaking sub" ;). On the whole, a nice stay.

Nice but lackingPosted Oct 14, 2014 on Hotels.com
In town for a wedding. Hotel very nice and the people extremly helpful and pleasant. Disappointed that rooms dont have real glasses but paper cups only. Also every other hotel chain offers free continental breakfast while staying there except Hilton Garden which charges $7.90 per person. The restraunt and bar are not open for lunch which interupts your time working in the room or enjoying the pool

A high-level international commission has declared the global "war on drugs" to be a failure, and has urged countries to consider legalising certain drugs, including cannabis, in a bid to undermine organised crime.
The Global Commission on Drug Policy, in its report released on Thursday, called for a new approach to the current strategy of reducing drug abuse by strictly criminalising drugs and incarcerating users.
It said the new approach should focus on battling the criminal cartels that control the drug trade, rather than targeting drug users.
"The global war on drugs has failed, with devastating consequences for individuals and societies around the world," the report said.The study urged "experimentation by governments with models of legal regulation of drugs", adding: "This recommendation applies especially to cannabis, but we also encourage other experiments in decriminalisation and legal regulation."Illegal drug use
About 250 million people worldwide use drugs that are currently deemed illegal, with less than a tenth of them classified as "dependent". Millions are also involved in the cultivation, production and distribution of drugs, according to the United Nations estimates quoted in the report.
The study said decriminalisation initiatives have not been accompanied by a significant spike in drug use, citing the implementation of such policies in Australia, Portugal and the Netherlands.
"Now is the time to break the taboo on discussion of all drug policy options, including alternatives to drug prohibition," Cesar Gaviria, the former Colombian president, said.
The commission called for the urgent implementation of fundamental reforms in national and international drug control policies.
In particular, it recommended that the focus of drug control policies be moved from users as well as "farmers, couriers and petty sellers", and onto the large criminal organisations involved in the drug trade.
It called on governments to "end the criminalisation, marginalisation and stigmatisation of people who use drugs but who do no harm to others".
"Arresting and incarcerating tens of millions of these people in recent decades has filled prisons and destroyed lives and families without reducing the availability of illicit drugs or the power of criminal organisations," the report said.
Treatment services recommended
It said that drug users who need health and treatment services should be offered them.
"Let's start by treating drug addiction as a health issue, reducing drug demand through proven educational initiatives and legally regulating rather than criminalising cannabis," Fernando Cardoso, the former Brazilian president, said.
The changed approach would focus law enforcement resources more against violent organised crime and drug traffickers, while providing alternative sentences for small-scale or first-time drug dealers.
The report said "vast expenditure" had been spent on criminalisation and repressive measures.
"Repressive efforts directed at consumers impede public health measures to reduce HIV/AIDS, overdose fatalities and other harmful consequences of drug use," it said.
The 19-member panel includes current Greek prime minister George Papandreou, former UN secretary-general Kofi Annan, British businessman Richard Branson and former US secretary of state George Shultz.
Other members include former Mexican president Ernesto Zedillo, former Swiss president Ruth Dreifuss, former EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana and former US Federal Reserve chief Paul Volcker.

|Reviews for Pinnacle
| LinRose-Feather chapter 19 . 9/23/2013
It's been three years since this story had ended. Funny thing is, I started reading this when it was only a couple months old and incomplete, but it's taken me nearly five years to finish. I left off around chapter 14 and never came back. For some reason, I just couldn't get it off my mind recently. I'm lucky I remembered the title at all. I just could remember the summary.
| Eru no Tsubasa chapter 19 . 7/24/2011
I am in awe of the way you wove this together. The emotions are so real... Lovely.
| Koshi Sekisen chapter 19 . 6/5/2010
Oh my, it's been ages since I've been so thrilled about a long fanfic and took my time to read it so I wouldn't miss a detail! (sighs) I didn't do my homework! (cries)
Anyway, awesome job! I loved it!
It was such a dramatic story, and it's obvious you planned it since the beggining! The quotes left me so intrigued...
Poor, poor Golden Couple u_ù I'm glad they are finally okay now.
I suffered most for Fuji, since he is my favourite.
What I liked the most -and I really, really mean it- was the way you made the characters mature. Even though Ryoma is an adult he is still a child, and Momo's bitterness is so close to sorrow...
PS. Fav. Story and alert for the epilogue!
| Airyballoon chapter 19 . 4/9/2010
That was amazingly touching and *sniff* beautiful. I can't stop grinning anymore, and my brother thinks something's wrong with me. Congragulations on finishing it! I can't believe it's over...
| AliciaHale chapter 19 . 4/6/2010
As usual , I cried! Anyways , great chappie and update!
| LightAngelHiroko chapter 19 . 4/5/2010
This is a truly amazing story: Beautiful, articulate, profound.
| kolachess chapter 19 . 4/4/2010
Aw! Eek! I had no idea this story finished! Erm...minus epilogue (which I am waiting for). Omg, this was so dark yet sweet! I actually read that other dark and everything-went-downhill-after-Ryoma-left story...and I have to say I like this one lots more.
Your story makes so much more sense! Although there are still some details I'm not too sure of, Ryoma seems to play more of an actual role in the downfall of Seigaku in your story. The other one I read was kind of all iffy and maybe and Ryoma-was-kinda-sortof-the-cause and it was stretching it a bit.
And I am thoroghly biased. Because I love Perfect Pair to no end. And your TezuFuji interaction was just lovely!
| amynaoko chapter 19 . 3/29/2010
congratulation for finish the history! finally all there are toghether! very well writen and a logic final! i can wait for the epiloge!
| shutterbug-28 chapter 19 . 3/29/2010
... That was my reaction after reading..im completely in awe..unbelievably touching..I can relate to the emotions.I was afraid that the perfect pair would not end up together..Im so happy that they did... I cant wait for the Epilogue..I hope it has more perfect and golden pair moments.. Props out to ryoma for coming to his senses, all thanks to sakuno..brave girl..are there other pairings?hm..
Thanks for sharing!
| Let It ALL Out chapter 18 . 3/28/2010
Oh wow. This is an extremely good story, better than most I've read in a LONG time. I love the way you've shown character growth and how this is not a 'happy-happy-joy-joy' story in which everybody stays perfect all the time. We all have character flaws and I love the way you've expresses that in this story.
| Airyballoon chapter 18 . 3/19/2010
This fic is totally mixing me up! I don't know wheather I should feel relieved or worried for Ryoma, poor guy. That meanie-head Momo! Don't you know small people can only take bad news in small doses? (XD like I'm one to call him small)
Anywho, please update again! I eagerly await for the next part of the story. So many questions are buzzing around in my head...
| Tressa chapter 18 . 3/15/2010
Incredible chapter! Wow. I am so glad that you decided to tell this from Taka-san's POV. I agree with what you wrote, Taka always seemed that despite being friends with everyone, that despite being a member of the regulars, that he didn't quite fit with everyone. That's not to say he wasn't friends or close with any of them, on the the contrary, he was. But out of all the regulars, the only one we really saw that had a life outside was tennis was him.
I loved that you created that anchor for him, his wife, his children, the shop. You captured his personality and character perfectly. Which I love. Taka-san is one of my favorite characters.
You could really sense his emotions in this, how perceptive he'd been through all those years, and his desire to help his friends that you can see he really truly loves. And the faith that he has in Ryoma, that he's going to come back, is so him. I love it. Ryoma may be their pillar. Ryoma may be the one that can bring everyone out of their current problems. But to me, it seems like Taka is the one that will start people having hope again. LIke you wrote, he has that anchor, while the rest of them just came crashing down around.
Wow. I've just written a novel here. I loved this chapter and can't wait to see what happens next!
| Broken Flavors chapter 18 . 3/15/2010
This chapter was utterly fantastic! Taking a look into Taka's mindset was surprisingly enjoyable. I really do think that he's one of the most unappreciated characters of this series, and your characterization of him is very lovely. I also really enjoy how all of the different layers of plot are threading together!
I definitely can't wait until the next update!
| AliciaHale chapter 18 . 3/15/2010
Yaay. You updated. Great chappie. Hope there's an happy ending. :)
| moribayashi chapter 17 . 2/10/2010
whoa! this is good stuff! i like how the story builds itself toward climax [it won't be long now, will it?]. i like your choice of words and writing style, too. and thanks so much for putting zuka and fuji together [i suspect vierblith also has her voice in it, no? Xb]. i don't normally enjoy oishiXeiji, but i welcome your version very much.
please take your time for updating, as i know the next chappies are important ones. ganbatte! XD

Preservationists balk at proposal to build on battlefield in Princeton
PRINCETON TOWNSHIP — A plan to build 15 new houses on a disputed plot of land next to Princeton Battlefield State Park could be approved as early as Dec. 1, when the Princeton Regional Planning Board will decide whether to allow the project to go ahead despite the opposition of local preservationists.
The site plan submitted by the Institute for Advanced Study, which owns the land, includes the development of 7.3 acres east of Mercer Road near the intersection of Maxwell Lane and Stone House Drive, and calls for building eight townhouses and seven single-family homes, which will serve as affordable housing for faculty members of the institute and their families.
According to the site plan, the development will be built beyond a 200-foot buffer zone made up of trees and hedgerows that will separate the houses from Princeton Battlefield State Park and shield the new neighborhood from view on the historic site. Still, some local conservationists are worried that, even at that distance, the construction would be encroaching on historic ground....

Concert Hall Encourages Less Stuffy Classical Music
Listen to the Story
During Handel's Messiah, people at a concert hall in Bristol, England, were told to act like it was a rock concert. But David Glowacki went to far, he was thrown out for crowd surfing.
Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. A concert hall in Bristol, England, wanted to make classical music less stuffy. During Handel's "Messiah," they told people to act like it was a rock concert. Crowd to the front with your drinks. Shout when you like. But the theater says Doctor David Glowacki went too far. Video shows him crowd surfing - and not very well. For this, he was thrown out. The unhappy scientist now says classical music seems like, quote, "a fossilized art form undergoing a midlife crisis." It's MORNING EDITION.

Irish poet, Seamus Heaney -- esteemed, brilliant, humble, plaintive and true -- crossed o`er the hoary sea today. He died at 74 in Dublin after a brief illness.

Why I Support Edward Snowden
The first and foremost reason that I support Edward Snowden is that I have lost faith in all others who demonize him. In this regard I think primarily of our government, but not exclusively. Time and again those who claim to be "looking out for us" (meaning, us citizens) have been shown to be liars and manipulators. In that regard I continue to be shocked by the collective shrug this has elicited on the part of the general population. I have written elsewhere about how our (and Snowden's) … [Read more...]
Do Not Let Others Judge You (and Don't Judge)
People will judge you, of course. That is my point. Determine in your heart and mind, ahead of time, how this will affect you.

It is good if you possess the ability to thank them. It is better if, after thanking them, you think about what they have said and … [Read more...]
What You Do, Do — With a Swift Pace and Nimble Step
Clare of Assisi died 760 years ago tomorrow (August 11, 1253). Yet she remains as much a beacon for women and men of faith today as she did in her own day. For centuries the story of Clare has been interpreted through the life of Saint Francis of Assisi (1182-1226), the one-time playboy who was destined to become Catholicism's most popular saint.Yet her indomitable faith complements that of her guide and truest love, St. Francis, whom I wrote about in my book A Mended and Broken Heart: The L … [Read more...]

Stones Kill Everybody
One of the most confounding and at the same time consoling passages in the New Testament is that of Jesus' encounter with the woman caught in adultery (John 8:4 to 11). Some scholars assert that this short portion of the gospel of John was not contained in the original text since it is missing from some of the earliest manuscripts. Others demur. Regardless the episode clearly represents and is consistent with everything Jesus did and taught in his earthly ministry. 4 "Teacher," they said to J … [Read more...]
