Wooden sawblade and tiny landscapes
Here are a couple more pictures of some class projects. We painted on these wooden sawblades sometime last fall/winter. It was really a lot of fun and everyone's was different, some due to the texture of the wood and the way the paint soaked in (even though we sealed them) and some just by artistic "license". My friend decided she wanted "Molly" to be a black lady and she gave her a kitty standing beside her, some people had less grass in the foreground and more clothes drying on the ground and everyone's quilts were different.
The name of this design is called "Aunt Molly's Wash Day"
Here are two tiny paintings from Priscilla Hauser's book called "Painting Tiny Landscapes" (I think) These are done on 4x6 canvas boards but some of the ladies did theirs on the tiny stretched canvas (which is how they are shown in the book) so the painting "wraps" around the canvas and is really cool looking. Those canvases are kind of expensive and several of us decided to try them on the boards but I think I would like to try the stretched canvas next time.
I'm not sure what the winter tree scene is called but the seacape is called "After the Storm" there is also one called "Before the Storm" with lots of clouds and a darker sky. I feel this is FL since I know that Priscilla had a studio in Pananma City Beach, but some people in my class think it looks like Cape Cod (do they have Sea Oats on the Cape??). My sand was whiter than theirs also (so was Priscilla's)..just habit and preference :)
Sorry to be so wordy, but as you get get to know me you will know that I am notorious for my "novels". You can just skip the "words" and look at the pictures if you like...it won't hurt my feelings :)
Happy Painting,
Diane, I don't know if they have seaoats up north but we sure do down here on the Gulf Coast. Did you go to Priscilla's by the Sea? I took a class from her about 23 years ago and she was a member of our chapter for a while but I don't know if she still has the place in Destin.
Love the little scene on the saw blades. I never have painted on a blade before but I am trying different surfaces now.
Glad to see you posting pics. And I don't mind the novels since I am a talker myself.
Thanks B. No I never did get to Priscilla's Studio by the Sea. I so wanted to go though...it was my dream. I know she is now back "home" in Arkansas. I know she got flooded out of FL in I think 2006 (not quite sure of the year) and I don't know if she still has a place there but I don't think she has a studio there.
I paint on anything that doesn't move too fast :)and I collect all kinds of painting surfaces...I have more surfaces than I'll ever be able to paint on. The saws we are starting on tonight I donated because I knew I would never be able to paint on all the ones I had(the guy at our local dump collected them for me for a long time...but he passed away and now we have a grumpy dump guy that isn't so nice about letting us take stuff or saving stuff. We're trying to teach him the "good" painting surfaces LOL) I am starting to let go of some of the stuff I have though...it's starting to take over my house :(
Thank you kraftymom. The thing about these 2 paintings is we didn't really need a pattern we just kind of looked at the picture and winged it, a true accomplishment for me since I'm such a "color book" painter. I like Priscilla Hauser too. The teacher has this book and I really like it. I've looked at it online a gazillion times. I'm sure I'll end up buying it.
Happy Painting,
Happy Painting,
Evening Gals,
This is so fun to come here and have pics to look at. The wash day reminds me of my DG, with apron on and hanging the laundry out to dry. I love seeing the pot steaming in the back. What is the green spot behind her? I'm having a blonde moment and need help with that one. haha
You have three great projects here and thanks again for posting for us to enjoy. The other two scenes are also very nicely done. We like to yak so please feel at home telling us about your projects and know that we enjoy reading your "novels." If I had more time, I'd write more also.
I have several of Pricilla's books but don't think I have that one. I'll have to go take a look at this book sometime. I think most of mine are flowers for the most part.
Punk, I had to laugh because I was wondering the same thing about the little green dot. Then after looking at it for so long, I remembered saws have a hole in the middle - it was one of those -DUH!! moments. I think we just have so much stuff in our heads we don't always see what is right before our eyes.
I have a few pics to post tomorrow, today I am tired so I am off to bed. Have been baby-sitting my GD the past two days. She is three and she tells me she wants to paint. I bought them the little watercolor sets for kids but you can't fool them, they want the acrylic in the bottle. She was so cute, she would paint then wash her brush in the water then blot it. She has it down pretty good. She was so proud of her painting (on a wood round circle) when it was time to go she ran back to get it for Mommy and a little turtle (pink and purple with a little yellow) for her Dad. I am so glad my grownup children appreciate what the little ones do for them. My son has necklaces the kids have painted him in his golf cart, my daughter has "angels" her boys have painted and glued feathers and buttons all over hanging in her kitchen, and my daughter-in-law has the flowers my other GD painted in her office. They are always so proud of what the kids do - and I must say they get that artistic attitude from me.
Thank you Punk, B is right the green "spot" is the whole where the saw blade attaches to the saw. It does look odd doesn't it but that is the background showing through.
Today I don't have much "yak" time as I need to get ready to go shopping with a friend. The Priscialla Hauser book the landscapes came from is a BIG book. I really am thinking about purchasing it.
B, isn't it funny how we have to study things sometimes to finally get it to dawn on us what we are really "seeing"?
I can't wait to see what you are going to show us. I love seeing what everyone is doing.
Aren't grandchildren fun? I miss mine so much. I only get to see them once or twice a year when I come down to visit, but they love to craft and paint with me and I love that time so much.
Wishing everyone a wonderful day.
Happy Painting,
Ya'll are crazy. ha I had to go back and see what green dot ya'll were looking at. Too funny. Ya'll know I'm just teasin ya, right?
Wouldn't have known the sawblade was wood if you hadn't said. Very cute little picture and I like the little landscapes too. It would be fun for everyone to paint the same thing and see how we all would do them differently. ha
Thanks for posting these. ~Anj
Diane, I purchased some blank wood pieces last year thinking it would make a really cute Santa. The beard was all curly but I could not figure out what the big round thing was around Santa's head. When my friend came over I told her I was trying to come up with a sketch for the Santa's face but I didn't know what to do with the big thing above his head. She looked at me very strangely, then said, "Perhaps it would be easier if you turned him right side up - it is actually the bottom of a snowman - and the beard was the snowman's hat and little furry ball!!" It was one of those "DUH!!" moments. Now you have to imagine this snowman turned upside down - well, maybe it was just me, Hehe!
LOL, Bebe, your story about the ornament just had me c
huckling out loud! Poor little snowman--no wonder he looks mad!
Diane, I like all three of your projects too, but especially the little scenes. I'm really liking the beach scenes you and Bebe are posting. I also really like lighthouse scenes even though I've never really painted any landscapes myself.
Bebe, that is a funny story...and sounds like something I would do. Hee Hee. I can't tell you how many things I have tried to figure out what they are only to find out I had them upside down or sideways. I love that little snowman and I can see where the unpainted piece would be confusing unless it was marked as a snowman...maybe even then for me LOL
Thanks Luvs, I like lighthouse scenes too. I have one that I still need to finish that has a lighthouse in it. It's done on an old wooden tray and I really like it. It has mostly small what I call "fiddley" stuff to completle. There is a stripe arch across the piece with stars above it, then I need to put the "stars" on the flags, which are actually just dots in a circle because they are "Betsy Ross" type flags, and the last thing I think it needs is "smoke" coming out of the chimney's of the houses. This smoke is different than regular smoke it is straight lines, kind of like "rays" coming out of the chimney's and they go off in different directions; strange but true LOL. It wouldn't take that much time to complete if I just sat down and did it...I just keep putting it off. Thing is I really like that piece and should finish it.
Happy Painting,

We stayed in a pop-up on an interior site by the playground. We had an awesome time. The staff was friendly and helpful. They had a great swimming beach and playground for the kids. We made reservations for next year ! We loved Lynn Ann's campground We camped at Lynn Ann's Campground in a Tent Trailer.Undo
Date of Stay: July, 2010 - $35.00
Many of the customers at Lynn Ann's Campground have grown up camping there, now bring their kids or grandchildren. Well kept yet slightly retro. Very nice sandy beach. Owners and employees are very helpful and courteous. Friendly neighbors. We felt right at home here, will definitely return! We camped at Lynn Ann's Campground in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: July, 2005 - $23.00
Nice place to get away in the northwoods. Located on Big St. Germain Lake, this facility has a beach and marina, making it extra special. Staff is wonderful and helpful. Individual sites in the upper section are great, but those in the lower section (closer to the lake) aren't as nice or big. Bathroom facilities could be better. It would be nice if they built a second bath/shower area for those in the upper section. We camped at Lynn Ann's Campground in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: August, 2004 - $23.00
We vacation in St. Germain every year, usually renting a nearby cabin. Tried tent camping here. Had a lousy site, too close to the bathroom. The resort facilities are older, could use some updating, but bathroom cleaned often. Showers not very nice. Not much separates the campsites, no privacy at all, some of the sites are very small. The sites near the lake appear larger. The lower area sites are not as nice as the upper. The lower roads are sandy gravel. People had to walk past our site to get to the bathroom, heard people all night long. Quiet hours were not observed. We were also too close to the dumping station, and somebody spilled on Day 2 of 4 and we had to live with the smell. The management did nothing to try and fix the foul odor. We left early. Would not go back. Perhaps an RV would have been more pleasant. I give it a 4 because St. Germain is a beautiful town/area. Sticking to the cabins! We camped at Lynn Ann's Campground in a Tent.Undo

15 issues to watch in '15, Part I: Capitol Hill developments
Already, 2015 feels like it could be a big year for transportation, at the federal, state and local levels alike. As the year began, we thought it would be fun to identify 15 people, places and trends that seemed to be worth keeping an eye on the next 12 months. In some years, 15 would be a stretch, but this year we had a tough time whittling the list to match the number of the year.
Helping interested communities make better use of land around transit lines and stops
A new pilot program from the Federal Transit Administration will help communities make better use of land around transit lines and stops. For those interested in applying, T4America recently pulled together several experts in a session to help them understand how to best take advantage.
On C-SPAN, T4A's Beth Osborne finds agreement with Heritage on HTF, walkability
Our compatriot Beth Osborne engaged in a spirited discussion on gas taxes and the crashing highway trust fund this morning on C-Span's Washington Journal this morning. Watch the video here.
In state elections, voters decline to punish pols for raising transportation taxes
Raising the gas tax is a political death sentence, right? Well, not necessarily. In at least two states where legislators raised gas taxes or other fees in the last two years, voters have responded by sending almost all of the supportive members of both parties back to their state houses. Could it be that voters are more supportive of raising revenue than we think?
T4America statement in reaction to the Senate bill to reauthorize the federal transportation program
James Corless, director of Transportation for America, issued this statement in response to the release of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee bill to reauthorize the federal transportation program:
U.S. DOT offers great proposals, but the program needs more money to make them real
The Obama Administration last week unveiled its bid to save the federal transportation program with only months to spare before most states and metro areas lose the majority of their funding to maintain and improve transportation networks – unless Congress acts. While the Administration foreshadowed its priorities in its March budget request, the proposal – […]
CBO: Highway Trust Fund hole even deeper than expected
New revenue projections for the Highway Trust Fund released this week from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) show that, not only is the nation's transportation fund going in the red sooner than expected, but the gap to maintain promised funding levels has increased by about $5 billion.
T4 America releases new guide to implementing MAP-21
A new easy-to-follow handbook, Making the Most of MAP-21: A Guide to the 2012 Federal Transportation Law — And How to Use it for Positive Change in Your Community, features both narrative chapters and two-page explainers on the key features of the new program, from the consolidated highway program to the new transportation alternatives, as well as new financing options.
Automatic budget cuts looming for transportation programs
As part of the last-minute deal to raise the debt ceiling earlier this year, a proverbial doomsday device was put in the room with the supercommittee charged with coming up with the cuts needed to lower the deficit, in hopes of getting them to reach an agreement: Come up with the required cuts/revenue increases to hit the mark, or else hefty budget cuts of 8.2 percent across the board to discretionary programs would go into effect on January 1, 2013 and last for ten years
Full T4 America summary of Senate bill
While the House considers whether or not to approve some sort of short-term extension or the House version of the Senate MAP-21 transportation bill, we've finalized this detailed summary of what's contained in the Senate bill. It details most everything we know about the provisions in MAP-21, what the funding levels would be, and what […]

With babies and young kids, you're going to have a lot of bottles and sippy cups in your life so a good bottle brush to clean them is important.

Another plus is the open handle for hanging, is you wish.

Best First Backpacks for Toddlers, Preschoolers & Little Kids
Back to School 2013
Buying your child's first backpack is a rite of passage for both of you. After years of hauling around everything they need - it's their turn to tote their belongings. They feel like a "big kid" but they don't yet need a big kid backpack. Here are some on the diminutive side, around 12"-13" tall - enough to carry the essentials without overloading them.

Not Just for Babies: Reusable Food Pouches
Back to School 2013
In terms of green living, reusable food pouches may be the best thing since sliced bread (or, reusuable water bottles if I'm keeping the metaphor going). Many were originally conceived for infants to use, especially on the go, but they're totally suitable for older kids for applesauces (or any fruit sauces), yogurt, even smoothies. They're the new lunchbox essential.
Best Reusable Snack & Sandwich Bags for Kids
Back to School 2013
I don't think I need to convince anyone that reusable sandwich and snack bags are a win-win. Buying fewer plastic bags saves you money over time and is an earth-friendly gesture. I use them to take snacks to work and my son uses them for his preschool snacks and what we call "go snacks" (snacks for the car or the playground). I'm definitely stocking up before he goes off to kindergarten next month.

Chill Out: DIY Car Seat Cooler
Joy Inexpressible
Although it's been a cooler July than we are used to here in Los Angeles, where I live, it's still pushing 95° most days. Each time we get into the hot car, there's an entire dramatic ritual that my kids enact. "Aaaarrrrgghhh! It's sooooo HOT!" "My legs are SWEATY!" "I'm going to melt!" I'm fairly certain they are not in danger of melting. And yet, I'm willing to put together this car seat cooler just to avoid the next performance.

text: just finished reading it, felt it was too folksy and too shallow. The style of writing was painful, with that being said gave me more insight into the amount of linkages that he and BB have and what they went through to get where they are. Gave a lot of info on how the Giants, Pats and Jets operated under Parcells, not as much as I would have liked on the Pats organization. Finding the parallels between him and Josh McDaniels is pretty astounding, he goes into how in the 1997 season BP had him directing the offense, but no one really knew about it and he was protected as BB did with McDaniels did last year. There was not as much insight as I would have liked, but a quick read, certainly not worth the cash expended (even though it was a gift) suggest waiting for it to either be discounted or in paperback.. now onto "Moving the Chains".. which I hope I can savor.

Jess Jones Vineyard
Nestled in the corn fields and orchards off Highway 113, Jess Jones Vineyard invites passersby to clink glasses in a rustic setting. Vintner Jess Jones and his wife, Mel, have been growing grapes on the property since 1997. At first, they sold the fruit to outside buyers, including area winemakers. Starting in 2004, though, they began keeping some of the harvest so that Jess could produce his own varietals, drawing on skills he honed through the University of California, Davis winemaking program.
Today, the couple continues to ferment juice into wine. Visitors can fill bottles directly from barrels of zesty merlot, crisp chardonnay, and tawny port, or relax in a tasting room that one Patch.com writer described as "not pretentious, although decorated with many news articles and accolades garnered by the winery."
94% of 34 customers recommend

How Long is the Real Estate Closing Process
Well this depends - and for the most part, it doesn't depend on the closing attorney. The bank (in a refinance) or the bank and the seller (in a purchase) are going to be the determining factors - as well as you, the borrower. If you get the bank all of the information they ask for, as soon as they ask for it, banks can usually get a refinance (or the bank side of a purchase) done in as little as 2-6 weeks. You should also decide on your real estate attorney quickly, so that the attorney can get started. Delaying factors could include a seller that is not ready to move, a bank that is just slow, or a title search that comes up with problems.
How Long is a Real Estate Loan Closing Itself?
Real Estate Loan Closings usually take between 30 and 60 minutes. Depending on the speed of the borrower and the attorney, and the size of the loan package, the closing may take up to two hours.
Do Both Parties Sign in the Real Estate Loan Closing Process?
This question is mainly only relevant to purchases. The only people that sign in the closing process are those who's names are on title to the property. This means that in a purchase, only the buyer/borrower is signing. The seller will sign a deed, a transfer tax form, and a couple of other forms, but they are not part of the loan closing itself.
I Want To Move My Property From Me to My Wholly Owned Business. Do I Need A Lawyer?
This is a loaded question. For the sake of this question, I am also going to assume that it is being asked about an LLC or Corporation and not a Sole Proprietorship. If you have a current loan on your property, you will need the banks permission to transfer the loan to your business - even if you own the business yourself, and even if it uses pass-through taxation. As to the actual question at hand - you do not have to have an attorney, but I never recommend doing property transfers without one. A simple, seemingly innocuous mistake can make your life miserable down the line.
In a Short Sale, is the Owner Really Off the Hook?
Maybe. It depends on the exact agreement with the bank. That being said, in most cases, yes, the bank will discharge the remainder of the debt - otherwise a short sale is fairly pointless for the borrower.
Can a Bank Sell a Home Even After a Loan Modification?
Loan Modifications are tricky. They contain a lot of complicated language and agreements. If the loan modification has actually been granted and finalized, and you have adhered to the new terms, the bank probably cannot foreclose on, and sell, the home. That being said, they usually do not grant a forbearance during the loan modification process - so they can still go after you right up until when they grant a modification. Also, of course, once the modification is granted, if you don't keep up payments, they can bring you into foreclosure all over again.

How to Let Go of Past Loves
There's No Such Thing As One and Only
Repeat this 20 times. Ask yourself whether deep down you believe that remembering the relationship preserves it in some way. Embrace the reality that longing does not connect you and write a new belief code, such as: "I have never left a relationship that would have made me happier than I am now." "This is a person of great worth, but not to me."
Each of us probably has 10,000 people we could feel a similar connection to---don't mythologize as "one and only" someone who actually might have been unremarkable.

Pereskia aculeata v: godseffiana cuttings
After reading a post on here about starting cuttings in gel, I decided to try it. I was just getting ready to cut my lemon cactus and decided to use it. These cuttings were started on June 5th. All my cuttings have started rooting. Of the four I started in gel (soil moist, is what I had on hand) 3 did root, but I took one out to inspect the roots and when I pushed it back into the gel, the tiny white roots came off. So I now have that one in soil. Then one was just a branch without any leaves and I ended up taking that one out. The other two are doing good. But will remember the next time I use a jar to put a cover/newspaper around it.
I also have put Velvet Leaf Philodendron (P.scandens f. micans) into gel on June 5, still do not have any roots. I thought Philodendron's rooted easily?
No experience with Pereskia but your mention of broken roots is the primary reason why I prefer to propagate cuttings in their intended home, not intermediately in water (except for a few with aerial roots, for a short time to soften them - like the Philo you mention,) or those wildly fun, addictive gel balls or crystals. But when getting to know a plant, it is helpful and fun to witness the time frame and structure. IME with this type of experiment, filling with water can help the roots float/loosen more easily.
Love seeing your pic too! What a fine budding root system. If it was mine, I would be finding a pot for it soon, before the roots are too long to place and cover easily without breaking.
Philos do take root easily, at a node. Do you have a node submerged?
I have transferred the two Pereskia's into little pots. I added extra water so removing them from the gel would be easier.
As for the Philo's I have a node on each of them submerged. I am thinking about putting them into soil, at the moment there are not roots. Would soil be better?

DOD needs better workforce data
They make critical decisions at every step of the acquisition process, yet the Federal Acquisition Regulation does not mention them. Any reform initiative that does not take them into account is bound to fail, yet the Office of Federal Procurement Policy rarely takes note of them in memos.
But that is beginning to change. Slowly but surely, federal agencies are coming to realize that contracting officer's technical representatives (COTRs) play an essential — if underappreciated — role in government contracting.
Even the Government Accountability Office is trying to get a handle on the community.
"We have no really clear picture of how many of those there are, what their training and skills are, and so forth," said John Needham, director of acquisition and sourcing management at GAO, during an April 28 congressional hearing on the Defense Department's acquisition workforce. "That's one area we saw as a need."
COTRs serve as a vital link between their better-known colleagues — program managers and contracting officers — and help translate operational requirements into executable and manageable contracts.
"They're the principal people who bring these worlds together," said Robert Burton, former deputy administrator at OFPP and now a partner at Venable law firm.
COTRs also keep tabs on how well contractors are meeting their requirements. Agencies have learned the hard way that they cannot hand that task to new employees or pile it on an already overworked acquisition staff.
So as contracting spending rises and the complexity of contracts increases, COTRs have become the linchpin of government contracting.
Performance pressure points
Agencies are finally beginning to appreciate COTRs because agencies are spending much more money on services compared to a decade ago. For example, DOD spent $202 billion through services contracts in 2008, compared to $92 billion 2001.
"There are a lot more moving parts to keep hold of and a lot more contracts to manage today," said Mary Davie, assistant commissioner of the Office of Assisted Acquisition Services at the General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service.
Davie took a job as a COTR in 1989, when she was 23 years old. It was a good way to get some on-the-job training, she said. She made sure that products came in on time and in good condition. "They were sort of turning to me for getting what was needed and keeping the project on schedule," she said.
In recent years, agencies have been under pressure from the White House and Congress to determine whether they are getting their tax dollars' worth from contracts, said Elizabeth Miller, vice president of Government Horizons, a nonprofit acquisition training organization.
Therefore, they are trying to develop more sophisticated ways to measure contractor performance. Those metrics and disciplines such as earned value management can get complicated when it comes to technical services contracts.
COTRs are responsible for building such metrics into contracts and sounding the alarm when contractors go astray. Communication must happen early and often, Miller said. "It's not about waiting for the monthly progress report to find out, 'Oh, we have a problem.'"
Davie said COTRs also explain to contractors what the program managers need and what the contracting language requires of them.
In addition, COTRs must keep in close touch with contracting officers about progress and suggest modifications if things are off kilter, experts say.
"The COTRs go back and forth," Burton said.
COTRs come of age
With President Barack Obama's push to put more contracting information online for public consumption, several experts said COTRs' duties will become more visible, which will force them to manage projects even more carefully.
With billions of stimulus dollars to spend, the increased burden on COTRs worries many inspectors general. They know agencies will have their hands full managing that money, which comes with new demands from the administration to track where the money is going and what it yields.
Numerous IGs have issued reports recently detailing their concerns about their acquisition workforces. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act's requirements seem to demand larger acquisition workforces than agencies have. Existing employees are already struggling to manage increasing sums of money and transactions, even without the stimulus funds.
Procurement officials expect that actions associated with the stimulus funding will be complex, requiring more rigor and oversight. That will, in turn, increase the demands on COTRs and other contract specialists, according to a recent report from the Energy Department's IG.
In today's environment, COTRs can't be young people fresh out of college, as they often were in the past, officials say. They must be savvy and experienced experts in their fields who understand both the procurement and program management sides of acquisition.
In recent years, "there was a shifting expectation for a higher level of competence in understanding and collaborating on the 'how' versus the 'what,'" said Chuck Harris, a former Air Force contracting officer and now president and chief executive officer of Inflection Point Solutions, a training and consulting company.
It hasn't always been that way. DOD, the world's biggest buyer, has not always filled the slots for contracting officer's representatives -- DOD's equivalent to the COTR -- with the best people. It is not uncommon for CORs overseas in war zones to have no training. And generally, all COR training is geared for times when operations are slow, so it is barely adequate when situations get tense, the Senate Armed Services Committee wrote in a report last year.
Assigning a soldier to the role of a COR would seem like a good way to boost someone's career by providing a launching point into the contracting field. But too often, the soldier who takes on that role doesn't have any relevant experience, the committee wrote. Then the situation gets worse.
"The COR assignment is often used to send a young soldier to the other side of the base when a commander does not want to have to deal with the person," the committee wrote.
The Army wants to correct the situation. Officials are spreading the word about CORs' role in contracting and are teaching Army commanders, staff members and people outside contracting the value of CORs.
"The COR's role is key to ensuring that the government is getting what it is paying for with appropriate oversight," Edward Harrington, deputy assistant secretary of the Army for procurement, told a House subcommittee in March.
In April, Jeffery Parsons, executive director of the year-old Army Contracting Command, said an entire division is dedicated to fixing its COR program. And the Army published the "Deployed COR Handbook" to supplement CORs' training when they're out in the field.
Sizing up the COTRs
But even as COTRs grow in importance and receive more recognition, officials are still struggling to form a clear picture of the community.
One official called it a mysterious group because agencies and analysts know so little about them. They're often hidden behind full-time jobs in areas such as information technology or engineering.
In its 2008 report on the acquisition workforce, the Federal Acquisition Institute said it couldn't identify COTRs because agencies' records and official guidance about them are so ambiguous. It deferred analysis of COTR demographics until the role is better defined and agencies keep better records.
Officials recognize that the COTR's role is also growing in importance because the future of government contracting will likely mirror the recovery act rules.
"The program managers rely on them, and the contracting officers rely on them," Burton said. "They're really the bridge."

Please note the distinction between COTR (Contracting Officers TECHNICAL representative) and COR (Contracting Officers Representative). This distinction is important because the COTR title infers that the Gov representative has techincal knowledge about the underlying service being performed. But the COR may not have this knowledge. This is an important distinction because in most cases the Contracting Officer does not have the technical knowledge. Having a knowledgable government representative enables the Government to make informed decisions as to the quality of the Contractors work.

I don't think this was too harsh at all. In fact I think it's very realistic. I adore that Reid got a backbone and stood up to JJ for what she did to him. She was supposed to be his friend first. That she let him suffer that much was unforegivable. I do hope you consider writing more of this story, I really enjoyed the first 3 chapters.

Please continue with this fic its Excellent, I love spencer in this; very realistic and you've added to what's already there wonderfully, particularly The fact that there is no instant forgive and forget with him despite JJ and the others efforts. I also love the hints of Rossi character that you've shown although I do wonder was the concern at the game for Reid or for Hotch and JJ as its rare for Rossi to show care for Reid on the show or in other fanfic stories, often coming off as distant no matter how much I would like it otherwise.
| Guest chapter 3 . 12/17/2011
Hey. Update already!
| Flame Shadow1 chapter 3 . 10/11/2011
Thank you for writing a story where Reid doesn't forgive everyone after only a few breif "sorrys". I like that you are making the situation seem more realistic. I don't know any real person who would be fine after finding out someone that they had lossed was really alive.
| Darlene10104 chapter 3 . 10/4/2011
K...Brain stop...Who is Anderson again? And LOVED the chapter! Poor Henri though...he doesnt get to see is god daddy...:( PLEASE hurry with the next chapter!
| Blooo chapter 3 . 10/4/2011
This very interesting and quite well written, but it seems to be some sort of British AU of the show. You might want to have someone look over the story for the use of British slang/ways of phrasing things.
Also, in terms of the AU-ness, you might want to label this as an AU because of suddenly!Twins!
| Wild'nFree chapter 2 . 10/3/2011
This is a really good story. You made Reid smarter than he sounds in a lot of other stories, so i aplaud you.
Please update soon.

Would You Pay For Bread at a Restaurant?
Fewer restaurant patrons, more recession dining specials: If you've dined out at all in the past year, it's been impossible not to notice the impact that the economy's had on the restaurant industry. The latest development? Establishments have begun charging patrons for bread.
Restaurants such as Momofuku Ssäm Bar in Manhattan, Fog City Diner in San Francisco, and Spring Hill in Seattle are pairing artisan bread with specialty olive oil or butter and charging anywhere from $3 to $8 for bread as an appetizer.
I'm not surprised by this gutsy restaurant move; it makes sense.
The bitter reality is that many restaurants are on the verge of financial collapse, and this strategy may be one way to stay afloat. It's also an effective way to cut down on wasted food. Do you agree with my argument? Would you mind paying to have bread at your meal?

Captain Tsubasa II: Super Striker
Captain Tsubasa II: Reinvented for PC
An Arabian friend of mine has found a really easy way to port (and edit) Captain Tsubasa II to PC using Visual Basic and DirectX. Here, you can see the first demo (it's in Arabic, but he said he could easily make an English version, too).
You play with the arrows and the Z and X keys. Of course, it is still at a very basic level, but, if he's found a way to get it this far, he's not far from reinventing the game altogether. Huge props for that.
He says he always wanted to redesign the game himself, and his plan is to make this an online multiplayer game (probably while keeping a new, created by him, single player mode, as well), where you play against others to improve your players and learn new moves, etc. It sounds really awesome. I hope he keeps up the good work.
A detailed explanation of L-Block's stunning contest victory:
i prefer a bit of graphics update though
Nice, the idea is super cool, but what about game mechanics?? We don't know the formulas that tecmo used at all so we can only guess, unless someone can de-crypt the original game and do some reverse engineering, which I doubt it's possible.
Oh, it is possible... In fact, it can be done even without decrypting the game, since we're able to mess with both player and computer levels and stats, all we need to do is make a statistic based on enough samples for each of the game's aspects. Don't know whether he'd be willing to do it himself, or he'd like to have someone gather it for him, I'll e-mail him soon to ask him.
A detailed explanation of L-Block's stunning contest victory:
Hey all...
well i'm having trouble to fix the data of this game, can someone give a link for the modified data of the game for single player mode? And plz... a way so I can modify the game by myself !!
One more question.. does someone have any link to download the story mode of this game with (.exe) extension in english french or arabic... but just not japanese!!! Plz reply! and thank you all!!!

As one of the essentials fixture of any home, vacuum cleaners are part of any family's cleaning routine. It's no wonder then that they have evolved to become an incredibly convenient and powerful tool. Each home has different needs, so finding the perfect vacuum – at a discount nonetheless! - for your house requires some knowledge about the different features a vacuum can contain.
Power versus Maneuverability
For homes with thick, heavily carpeted areas, the priority should be to dig entrenched dirt out of the deep crevices of the carpet. Rather than vacuuming again and again, powerful new or refurbished vacuum cleaners can do the job in a single sweep. An upright vacuum with a bag tends to be the most powerful. For those homes that have fewer thick carpets but several twists and turns that are hard to reach, emphasize maneuverability. Switch to a canister vacuum so you can stretch into each corner.
Differing Floor Types
Many homes have rooms that transition from carpet to hardwood or tile with no break. In those cases, look for a new or refurbished vacuum cleaner that can make the transition with you. Some vacuums are able to slide seamlessly from one floor type to another, and others can do so with only the touch of a button.
Bag or Bag-less
While bagged vacuums tend to have a little more power than bag-less, there are additional factors to consider in your choice. Bag-less vacuums save you the cost of bags, but do require filter changes regularly. They can also emit dust and allergens into the air during cleaning, so can be a hassle for users with allergies.
Talk to the professionals at ABC Vacuum to find the perfect discount vacuum cleaner for your home.

Overwintering a hibiscus in Chicago
thecurious1(z5 Chicago)September 14, 2006
Hi All-
I rescued a Hibiscus plant from Lowe's and it has started responding nicely. Growing leaves, and putting out blooms. Winter is coming, how should I plant to overwinter it? Thanks for any help.
It is a tropical, right? You can bring them into a sunny window and let them grow...watching out for spider mite. Their demand for water is not as intense. I trim mine back by at least 1/3 and store in my basement..which has a small south window allowing for some natural light. I water spareingly throughout winter to prevent root rot. It doesn't get much over 60 down there, but they manage to stay alive for the next growing season.

A Framework for Next-generation SPM We developed this framework based on our work with overall enterprise performance management and have found that it works well when focusing on supplier performance or any dimension of the supply chain. The goal of the framework is to help manage the process of strategy to execution. You already have overall company strategic objectives: a certain level of revenue growth at a particular target margin, or an expected level of market-share and brand recognition, for instance. Within those corporate objectives, you have specific supplier performance objectives: a certain level of material quality, cycle times, inventory levels and so on.

Volkswagen Jetta Replacement Shocks Information
Small, sensible roadsters such as your efficient Volkswagen Jetta were intended to be maintained well tuned in order to continue demonstrating efficient levels of fuel economy. If a problem comes up or a system needs to be fixed, avoid the temptation to scrimp with a low-quality part. That Volkswagen Jetta deserves the right parts to run at peak efficiency. Purchasers who pick a Volkswagen know that performance and style are well worth every penny; top-notch parts are sure to keep your car or truck in the best condition. Volkswagen has a reputation for striking looks that consistently induces envy, and that styling is matched by economical performance. When searching for bold lines and reliable performance Volkswagen cars always take the lead. Volkswagen is an innovative producer that is known for engineering cars that feature unusual detailing and boosted durability. Decent Volkswagen Jetta Shocks dampen motion caused by dips in the road to provide a more comfortable drive. The role of the shock absorbers is to smooth out vertical motion caused by bumps in the road and the suspension. Placed between the suspension system and the body of the vehicle, this device reduces vertical motion of the wheels. Great engine power and performance come from top-notch parts and accessories. Whether it's the heaters and defrosters or car antennas, fixing your vehicle with premium quality parts is a smart choice in the long run. Owning a Volkswagen is an intelligent choice, and keeping it in top condition is even smarter!

todas las partes nuevas y en excelente condicion, el delivery fue rapido
The products came on time, but were delivered to two houses down the street (not your problem!). These were much cheaper than if I had bought them in a local parts store and I thank you for that.
Getting a quality product online is worth the wait! Especially if it is the same exact product you will purchase in the store. I did not have to wait too long for the product to receive it from PartsGeek.
Looking for affordable auto parts are easy and well below what I can buy the items for in my local auto parts store.

Gorgeous fan programs
I fell in love with this fan program to minute i saw it! I had to have them as part of my ceremony. They were the perfect added touch to our beautiful outside ceremony. They were perfect for cooling guests off and they were beautiful to look at as well. Keep in mind these take 6 days in the production dept. so order in advance to avoid paying rush fees...If you have a large wedding party these might be a problem because space is limited. My guests loved this idea!!! Definitely worth the money and extra time....
Beautiful Wedding Programs
My family and friends went crazy over the wedding program fans. In fact, many took two or three as keepsakes. I was very impressed with the production and design. I could personalize and alter the design any way that I wanted to. The quality of the paper was well worth the money. The turnaround time was remarkable as well. I would definitely recommend this product!
Fast & Efficient
Thank you Cynthia, for your attention to my time limit. I received my program fans on time and they are beautiful.
Perfect Program Fans
The processing time was surprisingly fast, the quality of the paper was great, the size of the fan was what I had expected, and the colors were exactly what I wanted and absolutely perfect! Zero complaints from this bride-to-be! I am so excited for our guests to see these program fans on our special day!
