|The projection of the 118 CD Cycle to a LOW in mid April contradicts the SoLunar Map.
According to the Delta Theory the upcoming 'red lunar cycle' is prone for inversions.
This may occur around the first lunar quarter (April 7).

VIX vs Four Lunar Month Cycle
W.D. Gann's Method of Timing with Solar Degrees
In the 1920s this became the first basic technique he taught his students: watch anniversary dates (360 solar degrees) with past market tops and bottoms for a change in trend. Gann also devised systems of counting off time in solar degrees from past market tops and bottoms in divisions of the year in halves, quarters, eighths and thirds (180, 90, 45 and 120 solar degrees). When clusters of time counts from past tops and bottoms highlighted a future date, that date was significant for a reversal of trend. Gann favored also numbers such 30, 45, 60, 90 etc. and square-numbers as 49, 144 and 216.
In 1909 he made his his famous and well documented wheat-call (HERE). He said, that if by the end of the trading day of September 29th 1909, September wheat would not reach 1.20 $, then it would prove that there was something wrong with his method. On January 13,1909 wheat made a low at 930 $, on April 13 it reached a high at 1094 and reversed again into July 14 - both times 90 solar degrees apart. More info HERE & HERE & HERE

Largest Geomagnetic Disturbances during Solar Cycle 24
Playing the Field: Geomagnetic Storms and the Stock Market, a 2003 study of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, notes the following: Unusually high levels of geomagnetic activity have a negative, statistically and economically significant effect on the following week's stock returns for all US stock market indices.
When a solar flare or CME happens, it can take up to 2 days to impact the earth. Therefore, two days after a large solar flare we should see a drop in the stock market values for that day. More on the impact of such events on the financial markets and trading see also HERE.

V for Varoufakis
In order to prepare the German taxpayers for yet another bailout [HERE] of the Bank of England, Barclays Bank PLC, HSBC Holdings, BNP Paribas SA, Credit Agricole, Natixis SA, Societe Generale SA, Deutsche Bank AG, Commerzbank AG et al. the German government propaganda TV-channel ZDF recently launched an extraordinary heavy metal video [HERE] about Greece's Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis:
|First they ignore you,
then they ridicule you,
then they fight you,
and then you win.
Kinda funny? Ironic? Satire? Absurd? Meaningless comedy? Smoke grenade? Distortion of facts? Demagogic trash? Sick? Brainwashing at its finest? Maybe a bit of everything. The subtle quintessence of this video is: The 'Greeks' are shameless, impudent, lazy bastards. But there is no alternative: By all means 80 million German taxpayers just need to preserve this wonderful regime of corporate welfare and socialism for the rich established by the European financial oligarchy. The 'Germans' just need to do exactly this. Due to their original sin and collective guilt. Inevitably. Destiny. Bananistan [HERE]
Whatsoever, the message of the 'real' Varoufakis is quite different: HERE & HERE & HERE & HERE

Plummeting Brent oil prices are putting pressure not only on Russia, Iran, Nigeria or Venezuela but also on North American shale, which has sunk hundreds of billions of dollars into investment, and could soon come crashing down.Tempted by big returns, shale companies have borrowed more than $200 billion in bonds and loans, from Wall Street and London, to cover development and projects that may not even come to fruition. Oil producers' debt since 2010 has increased more than 55 percent, and revenues have slowed, rising only 36 percent from September 2014, compared to 2010, according to the Wall Street Journal. Analysts believe North American shale needs to sell at USD 60-100 per barrel to break even on the billions of debt accrued by the energy companies. Indebted companies, fearing bankruptcy, may therefore be forced to keep selling oil, even at a loss (Source: WSJ).

Tom McClellan: Crude Oil's 10-Year Leading Indication for DJIA
|Tom McClellan - Chart In Focus (December 11, 2014)
Tom McClellan recently presented a 10-year leading indication relationship between oil prices and the stock market, as shown in the above chart. The current oil price slide says that sometime around 2024 some type of "echo" in stock prices from this year's oil price drop can be expected.
Stock prices echoing oil price movements with a 10-year lag has "worked" for over 100 years and there is enough evidence to accept it, even if we cannot explain it. For now, the message of this leading indication is that the oil price rally from 1998 to 2008 has yet to see the full extent of its echo during the 2009-2018 period. While the current dip in oil prices is going to be bad for stock prices about 10 years from now, it is not really a problem for stock prices in real time.
The following chart zooms into this correlation between the S&P500 and the Crude Oil Price shifted 10 years into the future and suggests the S&P500 would continue moving down next week, then up into end of December before forming a major low around January 6. Another rally into early July - with a correction from around March 20 to April 24 - should follow.
2014 is the 2nd year of the Presidential Cycle and mid-term years are historically some of the worst. However, 2015 - the 3rd year - is the pre-election year and historically the best of the 4-Year Presidential Cycle. Additionally the 5th year of the Decennial Cycle promises to be a strong up year for stocks with a top in late July or early August 2015 (see also HERE).

Power of Flow, The: Practicle Ways to Transform Your Life with Meaningful Coincidence
Artists:Belitz, Charlene and Meg Lundstrom
Publisher:Three Rivers Press
We catch every green light, get a parking space in the busiest section of town, lose a job and get a job offer the very same day. Most of know it as synchronicity. Authors Charlene Belitz and Meg Lundstrom call it flow--the times when things happen effortlessly, everything falls into place, and timing seems perfect. Unfortunately, being in the flow often feels like an accident rather than a choice. By interviewing over 50 "flowmasters" and incorporating their own professional experiences, the authors came up with 14 practical steps to help us find our flow. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

I want to get rid of the grass.
Howdy! I am hoping someone here can help. Between the drought issues and our business demanding more and more time, I am wanting to get rid of the grass out front of our house. It is such a little place to mow, but it grows fast and we are often gone 2 weeks at a time. But, (there is always a 'but') my husband can't "see" what I am talking about. He loves the neat green expanse the grass gives. Can anyone post some pictures of their grass-less fronts? I currently have an image of ivy/pachysandra with a new curving walkway, lamp post, and a couple of lower maintenance perennials, but I need ideas also. Everyone else on our block has grass fronts/few trees, so what I do needs to remain understated and our house faces north and we are have rather long winters, so year round color is also a need. If I can show my hubby your success stories, maybe he'll be convinced. Thanks!
Oh dear, I wish I had a picture for you but I don't. I can, however, provide some suggestions if that's okay? Here goes: You have a lovely white home which would lend a nice backdrop for stand out simple plantings. Personally, I would plant evergreen shrubs, be it yew or boxwoods to outline the front yard, grown up to 2.5' - 3' high, depending on the size of the house of course. Near the sidewalk, just where the ground dips down, I'd plant smaller shrubs such as spireas mirroring both sides of the steps for consistency or contrasting colored shrubs such as the dark evergreen color with the light boxwood color. I'd break down the front concrete path leading up to the front door altogether. Within the enclosure, I'd make a full circle outlined with bricks and put compacted gravel in the center, picture a bullseye now, the bullseye of that circle would be another space to plant (consistently) more spirea around a pretty birdbath or not so big fountain. I'd create the path from the circle to the front door of gravel as well and I'd create another path connected from the circle to the drive way. Forget the winding paths, make your front yard look elegant (like an English castle entrance) if possible. If you chose a fountain for the center "bullseye", a stone or concrete one would look nice with several tiers to plant potato vines and ivy on the base tier so that it cascades down. On the 2nd tier, depending on the size of course, plant red colored flowers, small ones so that the color could contrast the house. This would be a pretty focal point from within the house as well. Another nice contrast would be to paint the top trim of the house the same color as the front door. That would help define the style of the home as well. Aesthetically, it needs a little more definition. Back to the "bones" (shrubs, structures, outlines of the yard)... Within the enclosure and outside of the brick outlined circle, make several planting beds and only plant those plants that inspire you or make your life easier ;). Personally, I'd measure out the graveled circle to be nearly 3/4 of the front yard. As for the steps, are those covered with a dark carpet or painted? I'd suggest keeping that consistent with the type of fountain or birdbath you get, in other words, to have it look like concrete or stone. And I'd expand the steps to the left (when standing at the front door facing the sidewalk) to either put a chair or a planter with a evergreen (Xmas tree shape-like) just to add a little more flair. Maybe some nice planters boxes wrapping around the porch and side windows, with cascading plants and red ones like the ones in the fountain. Consistency is key. It might be a bit much depending on the size of the planters boxes as it all has to "work" well together. Last suggestion, YOU COULD JUST DO AWAY WITH THE GRASS AND REPLACE IT WITH A GROUNDCOVER, but if you're getting full sun, make sure you get the right groundcover that will withstand the...
Planting beds and gravel, left unattended for a couple of weeks at a time, are going to be full of weeds. I agree with laag, pay someone $20 or $30 to mow it, and put out the sprinkler once a week if it doesn't rain.
If you're determined to replace it, a dense groundcover would work, but it could take a couple years or more for it to get thick enough to keep weeds from germinating. In the meantime, you'll need to weed it and water it, or you'll come home to dead groundcover instead of brown lawn.
Trust me, I am trying to preserve marital bliss. If there was no grass, I would not have to keep nagging him about how the grass need to be cut again. (He may love that green carpet, but he is way too busy to keep it up properly. He grew up in a neighborhood where few had manicured lawns, let alone kept their grass cut, so thinks it is okay to let it go for a couple of weeks, but our home here is in a neighborhood where folks are a bit more picky over what goes on next door. And of course it is me that gets the teasing comments about how I need to "get my husband to mow the lawn".) The other option is to do it myself, but I hate to mow, but I don't mind pulling weeds. On top of that, our annual rainfall is 25 inches in good years and with our sandy soil, what does fall, does not hang around long. I was hoping that ground covers and some shrubs with deeper root systems would require less frequent watering and be the kind of gardening that I enjoy doing.
Talking it over with my husband, he is willing, but can't envision it, and while I could push it, I would much rather have him see the goal before I make him spend time and money on this project. I was hoping to find some pictures somewhere of ground covers being used in larger areas than the traditional drip line bed under a tree. Therein lies my problem. Oh well.
Homerunriot: Thanks for the ideas. I had not thought too much of keeping it formal, so much of what you read these days concentrates on curved assymetry.
Below is a link to a thread with lots of different thoughts on grass-less front lawns.
"ivy/pachysandra with a new curving walkway, lamp post, and a couple of lower maintenance perennials"
I have to admit that I cannot "see" what you are talking about either. Shrubs and hardscape can yield a lower maintenance landscape but I would be afraid that ground covers and perennials would just create a much higher maintenance landscape. Do you feel like you could take the leap from a foundation planting with a few shrubs and perennials to a full front yard garden? Maybe you could expand your foundation beds to 12' deep and start from there.
- Brent
Here is a link that might be useful: Lawns (or lack there of)
The gentleman who put my round patio and short curved path from back stoop to patio, is more of a landscaper than patio builder (did a great job, but his love is landscaping) and his front and back yard have hardly any grass growing. In his long back yard you can't even see any grass altho' up on a small hill there is a little. He uses bark, mulch and has a few trees and shrubs and a few flowering plants that are no-maintenance, too and it looks so nice!!! He has a birdbath here, and a statue there, 2-3 lightly colored birdhouses on wood posts with a feeder nearby, 2 pots of pansies on both sides somewhere along a short cobblestone-type path to his patio and another statue. His front yard is small so he put a few daylillies here and there among the mulch and 2 Adirondeck chairs with a very little round wrought-iron table in between and it looks very nice. Maybe you could put a combo wood/wrought iron bench with a birdbath or something near in among mulch and not as many plants as he has...(just an idea).
Quite frankly, I don't understand why you don't mow it yourself. I'm 62, hate to mow, but am single and I mow weekly a lawn that is at least 30 times the size of yours. It takes 1 1/2 hours. Come on. Your lawn can't take more than 15 minutes, even if there is more out back.
Perhaps a compromise of sorts. You can expand your front beds considerably with "lower" maintenance shrubs and ground cover that would require a good chuck of work a few times a year but can be left on their own for a good period of time as well. And then leave a nice little patch of the healthy lawn you have and use a good old-fashioned non-power push mower once a week or so. The quiet non-power mower is actually pleasant to use if you only have a small patch and you keep the mower blades sharp.
A thought.
You wanted pics so here is part of my front yard as of yesturday. Not a spec of grass except for some evergreen ornamentals that need maintenance consisting of cutting back once a year.
You're taking some heat for wanting to get rid of your lawn and I must say your yard does look nice. That said I must commend you for being concerned about the large amount of water a lawns use. Lawns use more water than almost anything else you could plant and do take a lot of maintence to keep looking good.
I like your ideas for your front yard and think it will look nice. Being from a different zone and in a more "rustic" neighborhood I can get away with a messier yard than you can and of course have a different plant selection but it is possible to have a low maintenance, low water use yard that looks good and has no lawn.
Wishing you good luck with your plans, Maria
I had a 'grassless' yard, both front and back, in my previous home and have to agree with the others that time and effort will not disappear by having no grass.
Because water was a premium in our area and the gophers and groundsquirrels destroyed my new sod in 2 years, I went with something similar to mohavemaria's yard.........just different plants.
Drip line had to be put in so the young shrubs would survive the summers and even tho the area was covered with mulch I had to spend spring and late summer weeding. Shrubs had to be pruned and shaped and there was always 'clean-up' from dying flowers and leaves.
I'd say go for it if you're willing to put in a sprinkler system and if you both enjoyed gardening.
Otherwise, take all the money you'd spend in the transformation and pay someone to come in every 1-2 weeks thru the summer to cut the grass.
Yowza! This is hysterical! I have no idea there were so many grass lovers out there! That beautiful lush green you see in the picture is due to an unusual 3" of rain this week. By mid summer, weeks go by without rain. Many folks run their sprinklers every night around here to keep the stuff looking green.
Just in case everyone thinks I am way too lazy to mow, ya'll need to know that we have 200' of long skinny terraced yard in the back so mowing also means pulling the mower up and down to each level. My personal goal was to keep the grass (and mower) on the lowest and largest expanse for kids to play on and landscape the rest away. The top level in the back is already in the process of being turned in to a patio/perennial garden (every year I expand the beds a couple of feet as I divide my plants). I have grown up gardening, so I am not cluless. I just want to transfer what I am doing in the back to the front, but every time I try to do this in my head, I seem to lean towards the informal cottagy look, which I do not want for the front. AAARRGGGHH!
OK, so you're determined. I think you were getting suggestions to stay with the lawn, not because there are grass-lovers here, but because people often have no idea how much work the lawn-less yard is going to be.
I also mow my own lawn, always have, currently one acre, the previous house was two acres.
If your difficult lawn is in the back, why not start there? Just wondering.
Ground covers interspersed with mulched areas filled with shrubs and perennials are a nice alternative. Check your library to see if they have the book linked below. Also, do a search for "front yard gardens" to find articles and other books on the topic.
Here is a link that might be useful: Front Yard Gardens
I was a grass lover, when my house was new and before I had kids. Grass is the cheapest was to landscape a large area, and my house was new. Then I had the time for mowing and fretting over clover and chickweed. Pushing the noisy 60 lb mower was a labor of "love". After awhile I wanted more than grass, and I needed to devote my time to raising kdis instead of grass blades.
The way my house is sited, I don't have a front yard, just a driveway with two side-yards. I installed vinca minor in my two front sideyards. It took about two years for it to really flourish. With mulching (red-dyed wood chips of course) the weeding was kept down. For some reason an hour of weeding sure beats 20-minutes of mowing.
Just last year in a spurt of environmental consciousness I bought a manual reel mower. The reel mower is so quiet and easy to push and carry around. No gas, no oil, no partially combusted hydrocarbons. If I knew about reel mowers a few years ago, I probably would have kept all of my lawn and never have gotten into gardening.
Saypoint: Thank you, I ordered the book. Don't know why it didn't come up when I was googleing for info.
Isabella: Do you have any pictures you could share? It sounds like you are now where I want to be. You put my mowing vs. weed pulling sentiments well. I grew up with those reel mowers. They are nice. But the mower is my husband's responisbilty, so he gets to pick the mower. This whole thing is a process of making his load less, and me not having to mow. ; )
The "Taunton Front Yard Idea Book" is also a good book on the topic. I got a more practical ideas out of that one than the Liz Primeau one, but they are both worth reading.
Over the next few years I plan on reducing the amount of lawn in my front yard. One thing that helps in my case is a medium sized maple in my front yard. In some ways the maple limits what I can do, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. The maple also provides some context for the rest of the yard.
In your case you have basically a clean slate to work with. The books might give you some ideas to work from. Look at the front yard gardens that you like and pay attention to what elements are in place to provide structure or definition to the garden.

I have no pictures for you, but I grew up next door to a house that had a half acre no grass front yard. The owners, when they were getting on in years had a landscaper come and put in periwinkle, ivy, pachysandra, and some low maintenance shrubs. They had a lot of shade in their yard. It took a few years to get really filled in, but they lived there until they were in their nineties and said it was the best thing they'd ever done. Once established, they really didn't maintain the front yard at all.
And then we had the joy of watching the next owners trying to get all that pachysandra out. :)
Next to grass, vinca minor is probably the next most derided planting, but I like its very simple nature and habit. It is a great living mulch for other shrubs that don't have surficial rootings and a great overplanting for hyacinths, which I have blooming now. This picture is in late fall. Hope this helps with your decision.

RESTON, Va.—Video analytics provider Object Video announced in June that it has signed a patent licensing agreement with Vivotek. Meanwhile, its patent battle with major video surveillance providers Samsung and Bosch will continue, with an International Trade Commission trial scheduled to begin this week.
I had a quick conversation last week with Object Video CEO Raul Fernandez, about the company's recent announcement that it has signed another licensing agreement, this time with Vivotek.
Earlier this year, OV announced that it had signed similar agreements with Sony and Tyco's American Dynamics.
Fernandez said the fact that Vivotek decided to do a portfolio-wide agreement speaks to the fact that more and more products will be built with video analytics already onboard or will be video-analytic enabled.
OV is suing Samsung and Bosch through one legal process with the International Trade Commission and it announced last month that it had filed suit against Pelco in the U.S. District Court in Virginia.
The discussion between Vivotek and OV was prompted, Fernandez said, by OV's Amnesty offer, which it announced just before ISC West.
The five-day ITC trial with Samsung and Bosch will start on July 18, Fernandez said. A judgment will not be announced until November, however.Fernandez is optimistic that OV will prevail in this trial. "[We're saying that their products] made outside the U.S. have features [for which we] have patents … they're attacking the patents [and saying they're not valid]," Fernandez said. "But only one [claim] has to survive. One claim does it all… it leads to an injunction of the product. It's a highly risky proposition," he added.
Fernandez said OV will be announcing another agreement in the near future.
Samsung, Bosch and Pelco have previously declined to comment on the OV lawsuits saying that they do not comment on ongoing litigation
RESTON, Va.—ObjectVideo made progress in February with its licensing efforts. The video analytics provider announced that it has settled a lawsuit against Sony and signed licensing agreements with both Sony and Tyco's American Dynamics.
There was an update today in video analytics provider Object Video's patent licensing efforts. OV announced today that it has signed a global patent licensing agreement with Tyco Security Products' American Dynamics business division.
You'll recall that at ISC West last year, OV announced in April that it was suing Sony, Samsung and Bosch for alleged patent infringement
And, in June, it filed a complaint with the against the same companies with the International Trade Commission. That complaint seeks to bar Bosch, Samsung and Sony from importing and selling products containing software features and functions that allegedly infringe on OV's patents.
OV CEO Raul Fernandez told me today that he can't speak about the lawsuit, but he said the agreement with American Dynamics is the first of what he expects to be several similar agreements.
He said after the lawsuit and ITC complaints were filed, OV received "a series of inbound calls from [manufacturers] who wanted to understand the our licensing program." He said there are "several negotiations ongoing [with manufacturers, but they're not litigation-based negotiations" rather they're manufacturers who have approached OV because "they've looked inward at their technology to see if there is a technology overlap with some of our patents." This is OV's preferred way to "approach licensing discussions but we are prepared to take another [legal] path if necessary."
Fernandez said that the fact that Tyco is a "multi billion dollar, multi-national, multi-product line company that's been in business a long time recognizes our innovations .. strengthens our case [for pursuing patent licensing] … it's terrific for us."
"Our American Dynamics business is developing a broad range of video analytics-enabled products," said Warren Brown vice president of product management for Tyco Security Products. "As part of our pre-launch process, it was important to ensure that the growth we expect from these products would not be negatively affected by legal issues," continued Mr. Brown. "This agreement with ObjectVideo gives us that certainty, allowing us to focus on the more important tasks of building great products that delight our customers."
Asked how business is going, Fernandez said OV, which is privately held, had a good year with growth in its core software business and growth and backlog in its services side.
CARROLLTON, Texas—Tom Galvin, an industry veteran who created the razberi NVR, announced in December that he's launched a new business, Razberi Technologies, based here.
GVI Security, which went out of business last summer, after parting ways about one year ago with its longtime partner Samsung , had an NVR product called razberi, which has been resurrected by Tom Galvin who has started a new company called Razberi Technologies.
Galvin, who invented the razberi NVR, bought back the razberi technology and intellectual property and plans to bring an enhanced version and new product line into production.
Galvin used to be the head of R& D at Verint. He also worked at GE as head of video development. He became GVI's head of product management, after GVI Security purchased Galvin's company, PacketNVR, a couple years back
Galvin's new company, Razberi Technologies, is located in Carrollton, Texas. It's privately held and its lead investor is Dynacolor, Inc., a manufacture of video surveillance products.
From the release: "The idea of combining a network video recorder, a PoE switch, storage, and video management software into one easy to use and install appliance got a lot of industry attention. By combining these functions into one device, the installer saves a tremendous amount of time selecting and installing an IP based system. The risk of purchasing a component that can't support the demands of a megapixel environment is eliminated."
The company plans to launch an "enhanced line of razberi recorders, and IP cameras. Shipment from new production will begin in the next few weeks, and orders are currently being accepted. The company will provide Help desk support for its new products, as well as the legacy razberi recorders and autoIP cameras sold by GVI," according to the release.
I have an interview with Galvin tomorrow, so will have more information about the new company soon.
Among its announcements at the ISC Solutions show here, Samsung announced it will be offering a new border-patrol product to certain integrators—a mobility enabled armored robotic vehicle
RESTON, Va.—ObjectVideo, which in April filed a lawsuit against Sony, Samsung and Bosch for alleged patent infringement on some of its analytics, on June 29 filed a complaint against the same companies with the International Trade Commission.
RIDGEFIELD PARK, N.J—Samsung's "sales generation squad," a new business development team dedicated to working with Samsung integrators, is up and running, according to Frank DeFina, Samsung senior VP sales and marketing for Samsung, which is headquartered here.
DeFina told Security Systems News of his plans to build this team in December.
RESTON, Va.—The news, announced last week, that video analytics maker ObjectVideo is suing Sony, Samsung and Bosch for alleged patent infringement on some of OV's analytics took the industry by surprise, and had many asking the question: "Why now?"

Chuck's column: Christmas family traditions from 'The Mouths of Babes'
Do you remember this holiday season when you were in high school? Do you remember how you felt about these holidays as a teenager? I know I always looked forward to the time off from school. And of course, I always looked forward to Christmas Day, simply because it was Christmas Day. I am the third child in a family of six kids. My oldest brother is seven years older; the next is five years older; then it's me.

Snow season still strong
Snow season still going strong in northern NH
Just few miles from Conway Village, there's plenty of soft snow left on the Nanamocomuck Ski Trail. (SARA YOUNG-KNOX PHOTO)
Shea, 27, was ready to go through the bridge to the Lower Nanamocomuck Trail, something that was not possible a year ago at this time. By late March 2012 the mercury had already hit 80 degrees in the White Mountains, and what little snow there had been was long gone.
This year's unseasonably cool March weather, combined with the late winter and early spring storms, has stretched out the season for winter outdoor activities in the White Mountains and farther north.
"It's been a good winter," Shea said as he finished applying klister - the soft, sticky ski wax used for icy, slushy or wet conditions - on his skis. "Last winter you didn't even have to shovel," he added.
The snow in the woods and trails is good news for those who enjoy spring skiing and snowmobiling.
"The past few months of March (in recent years) have not brought much natural snowfall, but this year is certainly making up for that. The stage is now set for an awesome spring skiing season, which really makes the deals on lift tickets and season passes that much more valuable to our guests," Karl Stone, Ski NH's marketing director, said recently.

Wilson A1010 Competition Grade NFHS Baseball 5 5
GOOD QUALITY BASEBALL THIS GLOVE WAS PURCHASED AS A MID-LEVEL GLOVE FOR A 15YR OLD TO GET BACK INTO BASEBALL AFTER A COUPLE OF YEARS OFF. THIS GLOVE PERFORMED EXACTLY AS EXPECTED. HE WAS ABLE TO USE THE GLOVE FROM THE FIRST DAY OF FALL PRACTICE WITHOUT THE NORMAL "BREAK-IN" PERIOD. September 9, 2014
Wilson A1010 NFHS Baseball the Wilson A1010 lasted the whole 9 inning game the other team didn't bring game balls so only use the 2 that I bought, they were hit hard and stay intact during the whole game even foul balls that hit the parking lot came back a little rough but where still useable get product for the Mexican league that we play for in caldwell July 22, 2014
Great baseball, on par with Rawlings Picked up 12 of these to see how theyd stand up compared to the Rawlings comparable. The durability is definitely on par, the stitching isnt quite as perfect as what you get with Rawlings but its pretty close and comes at a better price. Picked up 12 more last week. June 17, 2014
Quality ball thru and thru Much better than Diamond DOL-A, which is about same price. Stick with Wilson, they are superior quality baseballs. June 10, 2014
A fine baseball for pitching practice or game use A little pricey for everyday practice. This is a high quality ball to be used in game situation or pitching practice. I would use lesser quality for batting and day to day practice. April 29, 2014

Worse thing I've ever read,
This review is from: Jeans: Big Bang Theory (Paperback)
This is a terrible book! Someone bought it for me, so I dutifully read it. Dull, predictable and poorly written, it felt much, much longer than it was. Unfortunately, not even big enough to get a good blaze going in the hearth.

The strut assembly plays a major role in your Ford suspension system. Struts are essential shock absorbers in the suspension system. A strut is made up of various components, including upper and lower spring seats, coil springs, and mounts. The strut assembly dampens the up and down movement of your car, much like the shock absorbers. Struts can be found at the front end or in the rear suspension.
The strut contains a spring to effectively resist the total weight of your vehicle and thus make your travels as smooth and bounce-free as possible.

And if you are going to do the motions, find a bush or a isolated area, you know, where your characters would be comfortable doing it and not make the guards come and throw them in jail.
I have no problem with it. If it is done in whispers and not in the middle of Wayfarer's then what is the problem? I myself have done it. I'm not going to post and lie, I play on an RP server, who hasn't at least been exposed to some of it on one. If it progresses the storyline and is not bothering anyone else, I have no issue with it.
I pay for my own gametime. Not yours, and you do not pay for mine. So I cannot tell anyone else how to play. That being said, I have seen open ERP in the middle of the Bazaar in Silvermoon. Things like that just happen on our servers, we might as well get use to seeing it and either report it or ignore it and go on about your business.
Sorry to say but I find your view to be the prudish cop out. I'm an old RPer who would ERP when the time called for it and a lot more tends to happen during sex than just sex. A lot of emotions happen to your character, sometimes a lot of doubts. I've had a character realise, during sex, that she was really not in love with the person she was having sex with and she had just made the biggest mistake of her life. ERP is just like any other aspect of RP. things can happen that you were not expecting that can entirely change the course of your storyline. Glossing over it with a fade to black is a detriment to that, though I respect that some people are not comfortable with ERP I don't judge them, just as I would not wish for them to judge my choice to ERP. I don't do it to get my jollies, I do it because sex is a part of life and life is what we are supposed to be acting out in these characters thus I feel it is natural.

Yo, Philly, are you feeling left out? If not, you have no civic pride, you haven't been watching the national political conventions, or both.Anybody who has ever lived in, worked in or visited the City of Brotherly Love has to be rather jealous of Tampa, Fla., and Charlotte, N.C., the host cities of the Republican National Convention (last week) and Democratic National Convention (this week), where supporters have whooped it up for Willard Mitt Romney and Barack Hussein Obama.With the coveted title of host city comes a humongous dose of national attention — the kind that money just cannot buy. Indeed, the conventions themselves attract tens of thousands of politicians, delegates and their families, and journalists — in search of drama during events that have turned out to be largely free of suspense — who leave behind lots of money.Philly hosted both the Democratic and the Republican conventions in 1948, and it proved that it can be a terrific host city again in 2000, when newly installed Mayor John Street's ultra-Democratic town did a fantastic job hosting the Republicans at the First Union Center.Philly has it all — tons of historical sites, hotels, restaurants, a great public transit system. It's everything conventioneers could ever hope for. So, what do Tampa and Charlotte have that Philadelphia does not? Nothing, and a whole lot less.Note to Mayor Nutter, Gov. Corbett and Philadelphia's hospitality industry: Get off your butts right now and start working to bring the Democratic or Republican National Convention to Philly in 2016. Philadelphia and democracy are a perfect match.Send letters to: firstname.lastname@example.com
We must protect our great protectorsWhen an officer or firefighter passes away, the city joins together in supporting these fallen heroes. We clasp hands and collectively grieve for these members.In our prayers and conversations we recognize the tremendous sacrifices they make, and commend them for their heroism. Sometimes it takes a tragedy to bring our thoughts to center stage.All firefighters in our city need our support now more than ever. Every day these men and women make our homes safer, yet whether it is because of waves of brown-outs or a never-ending contract dispute, they are under attack.It is imperative that we stand in solidarity with our firefighters. We are all quick to recognize their need for support in the face of tragedy, but frankly the current environment they must endure is also a grave tragedy. Our neighborhood protectors should not have to worry about the ability to make ends meet.Our entire neighborhood should be grieving at the loss of respect given to these brave souls. Every day they stand up ready to make the ultimate sacrifice, and as their friends, family, and neighbors, we need to stand up with them.I recently sent a letter to Mayor Nutter asking him to accept the terms of the binding arbitration process.It is my hope that you will join me in fervent support for our firefighters.State Rep. Kevin Boyle172nd Legislative DistrictGutless theft of a flagAfter returning from vacation, we couldn't believe our eyes when we realized someone had stolen our American flag. It had been on our front lawn since Sept. 11, 2001.Hopefully the person or persons who had the guts to steal it, have the same kind of guts it takes to protect it, like our men and women are doing right now overseas. My guess is they probably don't.Brian DealMayfairSame-sex marriages are anything but traditionalAh, the left! Always ready to put out rhetorical fiction to advance an agenda. That was my reaction upon reading the lengthy letter by Kimberly Kunda justifying her "marriage" to her same-sex partner (Same-sex wife appeals for mutual respect, Aug. 15 edition). Her piece is pure rhetoric, because it rests on the flimsiest reasoning I have seen in some time. First, she contradicts herself. She states that "free speech is a sacred, American right" then, later on, she writes that others don't "have the right to have an opinion" on her marriage. Kim, isn't that what freedom of speech is, the right to have and publicly state opinions? And that includes expressing opinions we may not like to hear, even ones that do not support certain so-called "lifestyles." And, Kim, the fact that we debate marriage is not absurd, as you state, but is an exercise in free speech. The debate you decry came from YOUR side because your side made the redefinition of marriage an issue in the first place! And, in an era when children more than ever need both strong male and female role models as parents, the benefits provided by solid heterosexual marriages need to be aired thoroughly, publicly and completely. This is called responsible citizenship, and both citizens and public officials alike have the duty to protect and preserve fundamental human institutions.These are institutions (of which traditional marriage is but one) that have been devised by humanity via trial and error over the course of millennia because they are most likely to produce happiness for individuals and benefits for the wider scope of whole societies.These institutions are so vital that governments have no right to tamper with them, and they most definitely trump American values like "equal rights." Preserving these institutions is called responsible stewardship, and it falls to all of us to rise above the narrowness of self-interest and half-baked ideological schemes and defend them. Even you, Kim. Meanwhile, I've got a challenge for you: how about applying your writing skills to genuine literary fiction and avoid ideologically driven screeds? As for the rest of us, to avoid falling for such folderol, we should definitely "eat mor chikin" and pray fervently for heaven to touch these misguided souls.George TomezskoFox Chase
Those cameras are nothing to smile aboutI was very surprised to see an editorial last week praising these red light cameras (Let there be light).Suggesting that cameras be put on every corner is absurd. Next, someone will suggest putting one outside of every house, to prevent crime, of course. And after that, someone will suggest putting them in every house, because many crimes do happen inside the homes, and we want to be safe, don't we? I don't think so.Our founding fathers said things like, "Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one." That was Ben Franklin.Patrick Henry got more to the point: "Give me liberty, or give me death."A more contemporary quote that would fit here is from Dwight Eisenhower: "If you want total security, go to prison. There you're fed, clothed, given medical care and so on. The only thing lacking … is freedom."May I add you won't have to worry about looking before you cross the street, and you won't have to worry about watching your children either. Is that really what anyone wants?Turning America into more of a surveillance society than it already is, is not the answer. Placing law enforcement into the hands of private companies that make money off it is a bad idea. Tweaking the yellow lights just a little bit could bring in millions more for the city and the company operating the program to split. Once they figure that out, the traffic lights on the Boulevard will be operating like strobe lights and the accidents will be up again. Do you really think they are concerned about your safety?You got to be kidding; it is all about money and control. These red-light cameras are a horrendous idea for the people of Philadelphia or anywhere in America. Time will tell.Frank YostRhawnhurstVoter ID is stirring our readers' hornet's nest And so it appears that Republicans are about to steal another presidential election, at least the second one in the last 12 years, and if that happens it will have been made possible, to one degree or another, by Republicans in high offices and in the American judicial system!Think not? In the year 2000, Jeb Bush, the then-Republican governor of Florida, was responsible for purging 173,000 voters from the Florida rolls; vote recounts precipitated by the so-called "butterfly" ballots — the ones with the hanging chads — were stopped by Florida's then-secretary of state, Katherine Harris. As Florida's secretary of state AND co-chair of George Bush's Florida election efforts, Republican Harris was ultimately central to Bush's election to the presidency, certifying that he had defeated Democrat Al Gore in the popular vote.Harris' order to halt the recounts was upheld in the state circuit court, and though subsequently overturned on appeal by the Florida Supreme Court, that decision was reversed by the United States Supreme Court. One Republican justice, Clarence Thomas, cast what could arguably be construed as the deciding vote giving George W. Bush the election. And Mrs. Clarence Thomas, it should be noted, was a member of the Bush transition team.Slam dunk!With the assistance of George W. Bush's brother, a Republican governor, and that of a Republican Florida secretary of state, and Republican justices, Bush beat Al Gore in Florida by a mere 537 votes — and that made Bush our king.As of Aug. 15, by virtue of Republican Gov. Tom Corbett's Voter ID law, upheld by yet another Republican judge, the state of Pennsylvania is poised to steal the upcoming presidential election by disenfranchising possibly a million Pennsylvania voters "coincidentally" comprised of a similar disenfranchised demographic as in Florida in the year 2000. George Santayana told us about this kind of stuff: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."Arthur GurmankinBustleton
A plea for PumpkinWith summer ending, everyone goes on their final vacations — the last attempt of luxury before the warm weather is gone for another year. Unfortunately, some people would rather focus only on themselves, rather than the ones under their care. Being in rescue, I see so many pets being abandoned in shelters or the streets by people leaving for vacation. People can come back home, but their dogs or cats never will again.Pumpkin, a sweet orange tabby, is a victim of this cruel neglect, as she and her two kittens were found starving on the streets just a few weeks ago.Pumpkin's kittens were adopted, but their lonely mother sits in a crate, still waiting and wishing for love again. If anyone can help give (or foster) this sweet and gentle girl a true home, please contact her caretaker, Janice, at firstname.lastname@example.com or by calling 267-269-4040. So if you need to go away for a while, please have plans for your pets before you leave. There are always family, friends and boarding services to watch over your fur-baby. This way, you can both come back home, together. Please, don't let your pets wind up like the others — forgotten — like poor Pumpkin.Gina DeNofaNormandy
When Judge Robert E. Simpson Jr. delivered an opinion earlier this month upholding Pennsylvania's new Voter Identification law, he must have forgotten to look at the calendar.Even the most simple math shows that there is not enough time for everyone who needs a photo ID to get one before the Nov. 6 election. PennDOT's driver's license centers will begin issuing those photo IDs this Monday. When you factor in the number of days those centers will be closed for holidays, you'll see that only 57 days remain for a voter with no photo ID to get one. There are 71 driver's license centers in the state, and most are only open five days a week, though some are open for six days. For argument's sake, we'll say they are all open for six days, and they all operate for 7 ¾ hours.And, because we believe in giving the benefit of the doubt, we'll suppose that PennDOT will assign one person in each center to handle only these photo IDs, though there has been no such announcement as the agency figures out how to proceed.All of this adds up to a total 31,264 hours these potential voters have to get their IDs before Election Day. The state has estimated that there are 750,000 people who are without photo IDs, and right now ineligible to vote.If you do the math, you'll see that each person would have to get in and out of a PennDOT center in 2.5 minutes, if all 750,000 people showed up to get their photo IDs. It's simply not possible.The state Supreme Court should delay implementation of the new law until the next election cycle. Let's wait and do this right.Send letters to: firstname.lastname@example.com
What do you call a program that was established by the government, is run by the government, was created to save lives, and is, in fact, saving lives?A success.That's right, folks. Those cameras that have been catching red-light runners at some of the worst intersections on Roosevelt Boulevard for seven years and are popping up at several other frustratingly congested intersections in Northeast Philly are doing their job.On the Boulevard alone, the number of pedestrians struck and killed by vehicles since the cameras were installed has dropped dramatically.In addition to adding funds to the city and state from financial penalties imposed upon red-light runners, the cameras are getting many motorists to do what they should have been doing all along — stop driving like maniacs, reduce their speed, and actually stop when the traffic light turns red.It shouldn't take a rocket scientist — or even a Philadelphia Department of Streets official with a Ph.D in traffic engineering — to know that the city must do its level best to install cameras at as many busy intersections as possible, not just in the Great Northeast but throughout the City of Brotherly Speeders. Police need all the help they can get to crack down on red-light runners. Vigorous enforcement of the traffic code, aided by the marvelous technology mounted atop poles on the busy streets of the city, will do wonders to force all the Leadfoots to ease up on the accelerator and step on the brakes.Foes of red-light cameras need to remember this: We, the people, need government to protect us from ourselves.Send letters to: email@example.com
A new way to crack down on the drunksA drunken driver kills someone. He or she gets caught, is fined and jailed. This is not acceptable because no one should have died in the first place. How can this scenario be stopped? Here's an idea: Since we have plenty of police, detectives, investigators, and others, why not have them go back to the source of the problem? Find the tavern or the private party or wherever the place was that the guilty one became intoxicated. Then search out all the others that were present there, too. Finally, fine everyone at that affair, even those who were not in direct contact with the drunken person.What will this eventually do? This action may make people aware of what is going on around them at future affairs, and the mere threat of a fine (possibly $100 a head) may have folks consider speaking to the bartender or whoever is responsible at a party to take action.Awareness and responsibility seem to be the keys to help end this horrific problem. A considerate society means everyone must be involved.Nicholas ZeccaSomertonTacony needs a reality check To Alex Balloon, corridor manager of the Tacony Community Development Corporation, regarding plans to build all the storefronts on Torresdale Avenue (Grand plans in Tacony, July 18 cover story):Why? And for who? Are you kidding? It's yet another waste of money. That's like putting lipstick on a pig! Go with the times!You need a couple of pawnshops, tattoo parlors, a pool room, adult book store, head shop, two more 7-Elevens, and a rest stop for the hookers. And you could put car carriers down the middle of Torresdale Avenue for parking. Also, make the lot at Princeton Avenue and the Delaware River a trailer park!All of these will increase the economy for Tacony! If all of those fail, I suggest an air strike.J.

Yo, Philly, show some pride in your city!After living and working in Philadelphia all my life, I have moved to a retirement community in Schuylkill County.I am living near a family that has helped me get settled in, as I need assisted living. I'm grateful for family to help.Small-town life is so different. There is no hustle-bustle and noise of the city streets. A traffic jam is rare. Many people that I have met have lived their entire lives here and maybe visited Philly on a rare occasion.I felt that Philly was a small town compared to New York. We have so much to be proud of, especially now with the new Barnes museum, excellent theaters and restaurants everywhere. Our schools and universities are tops.I am proud to tell people that I am from Philly as I try hard to get used to the quiet of small-town life. Actually, I don't have to tell people because most people can pick up my "Pfhilly" accent if I ask for "a cup of cawfee." I didn't think we spoke oddly, do ya?Enjoy the city, be proud of the Northeast and appreciate what you have.Janice JakubowitczPottsville, Pa., formerly of RhawnhurstKnights in shining carsI was diagnosed with cancer in February. My treatments included 45 radiation therapies and 12 chemotherapies. I stressed over how I was getting to these appointments, until I spoke to an "angel" who said they would help. When my family could not help, the "angels" came. I got to every appointment!When you are sick, having support, kindness and generosity really matters. So far, the treatments have worked and I am grateful for all my angels that gave me hope.Please, if you have a day to give, I can only say you will be rewarded in a way that is indescribable.Eva GebauerFrankfordTake a hike, CouncilmanOnce again in the Soviet Republic of Philadelphia, City Council has spoken with all-knowing wisdom.Councilman James Kenney has decreed the owner of Chick-fil-A must "take a hike."Just what we need — push successful businesses out of Philadelphia (as if we have loads of them waiting to move in). And what was Chick-fil-A's crime? The owner said he supported the biblical view of marriage as heterosexual, as he also supports closing his restaurants on Sundays. That's it. No one who is gay is denied service. Is Mr. Kenney aware of the message he is sending? As a public official he is attacking a private business simply for the common, Christian beliefs of the owner. What does Kenney think of traditional Catholics? And free speech? His words seem deliberately "intolerant" to me. This is all part of a bigger political game plan. Ten years ago it was "all we want is civil unions." Then it had to be marriage "equality." Now, even President Obama uses the inclusive "gay, lesbian… bisexual, transgender community."Pretty soon, gay marriage will be old business, as we push into gender-free, anything goes America. Absurd…or is it?This is not a civil rights issue, it is a technique for destroying religion. If you are seriously religious, you are now a bigot.And if you want to run a business in Philadelphia, prepare to shut up about it — or become an atheist.Richard IaconelliRhawnhurst
It was Adam and Eve, not Adam and SteveLove and marriage know no boundaries
Unless Pennsylvania's so-called Voter ID law is struck down by the courts before The Big Day — the general election on Nov. 6 — every eligible voter in the Keystone State will be required to show poll workers valid photo ID before they're permitted to enter the voting booth, thanks to the Republicans in Harrisburg.People who buy the argument that Voter ID is NOT an attempt by the ruling Republicans to suppress the votes of urban Democrats and help presidential candidate Willard Mitt Romney win Pennsylvania also believe that the moon is made of cheese. Mike Turzai, the Republican majority leader in the state House of Representatives, admitted the GOP's motives just last month.Aside from the Republicans' obvious ulterior motives, however, Voter ID is a good idea. As proponents point out, citizens must show photo ID in order to purchase alcohol or gun, drive a car or get into the screening line at the airport. Showing valid ID will protect the integrity of the vote by virtually eliminating fraud at the polls.There's still ample time for unregistered voters to find the necessary documents required to obtain a state-issued Voter ID card. The Pennsylvania Department of State, which oversees elections, and PennDOT can do their part to get folks registered — thereby helping to increase voter participation and aiding the cause of democracy — by sending staffers with mobile electronic machines that verify required documents to senior centers, nursing homes, etc., to sign up voters on the spot.Election Day is more than three months away. May the best-organized political party win.

Are you weekends more like 'work never ends'
by Renee Vaughn
posted Nov 13 2009 5:08AM
In a society where it seems we're working LONGER hours, and in some cases making less money, and by the grace of God, trying to hold on to our jobs, do you really find yourself working right through your weekends, where not to long ago, they were the 'special days' to spend quality time for not only self, but with friends and other family members...a time for that 'me time', where you could focus on things that totally separated you from the hustle and bustle of the work week. Now with a continued struggling economy and for ALOT of us, it's become a full-time job just trying to find a job, due to massive lay-offs!! But if you are still able to call the weekends your own..could you PLEASE on your relaxtion secrets to the rest of us:)

Officials in New York state launched a teacher-evaluation system Saturday for New York City teachers, in which educators are assessed on a four-tiered scale and there is a lower threshold for dismissing ineffective teachers. The system also includes new assessments for students in typically untested subjects -- such as art, gym and foreign languages -- to measure teachers' effectiveness.

My Brug / Fall Flowering
I fertilized heavy in the summer. But I feel I was fertilizing a little too much. I laid off the fert for about a month. When I started to see buds, I picked up on it a little.
Just MiracleGro
These are my Brugs now, and we had a Frost lastnight. Still blooming
And my babies are going strong
Guess it's time to play musical plants. Out during day, in during night.....
Thos cuttings are all from this September. Getting them a little root before they go into a basement window for the rest of the winter.
I will try to overwinter the large ones as well just to see how it will turn out. But I know I have the little abies as a back up. The larger ones we the same size as the little babies last October, so I at least now know I will have some nice plants next year.
The only reason I did so many was that so many visitors were in awe at the beauty, so I told them I would grow them one. I can then teach them how to grow cuttings and they can pass some on.
I would really like to get my hands on cuttings of different colors. I don't really feel like dropping money on-line but I might have to next spring. I would like a red or purple
same here..... the first one I bought 4? years ago for 25 bucks at the end of season ....( pink/salmon color ) and now have a yellow and a white I traded with locals here in columbus.

Historical Traveler Reviews Howard Johnson Inn & Suites Beaumont
One of the best...
... B & B's I've been fortunate enough to stay at. This was my 3rd or 4th visit to the Lion and the Rose. I've been staying there ever since it opened in the early 90's and the inn continues to be one of my favorites. And I have stayed at many B & B's over my many business trips throughout the country.
The innkeepers are great guys who make you feel very comfortable and welcome. Anyone traveling to the Portland area has lots of choices of inns and B & B's but this without a doubt is the finest.
Wedding Romance Victorian Style
After a carriage ride on the riverfront and a tour of downtown Portland, Oregon, our wedding day was complete as we retired for the evening in a "storybook" Victorian-era home. The proprieters were wonderful hosts. The ambiance during the day was serenely romantic as we took some wedding pictures in our room, "The Lavonna Room." Staying at the Lion and the Rose was my dream come true for my wedding. Thanks everyone! from the bottom of our hearts. Major and Mrs. Richard Farnsworth.
Perfect Overnight stay & location
We spent one lovely night at the B&B-- everything was clean & comfortable. The location is perfect for getting out and walking around the shops and nearby mall and plenty of restaurants to choose from. Breakfast was fabulous. The hosts were very kind and helpful. We would definately stay there again if we visit the area.
Absolutely wonderful
Everything about the Lion and the Rose was terrific. The hosts were friendly and helpful and didn't "hang out" as some do. The food was wonderful and the table settings were gorgeous. I'd recommend it to anyone.
A must stay when in Portland!
While we are new to B&B's - Steve and Dusty are incredible hosts. Their knowledge of their beautiful property and the surrounding area was fabulous! The room was out of this world....most people commented on the room in the diary about the feeling of love in the air...Well all I will say is it was magic! Clean and no amenity was missed... Then came Breakfast not being a morning person I was reluctant to get up but love the full breakfast spread...
Guys we will be back in December for that shopping weekend!
Thanks Dean
Romanticly beautiful
Pictures of this lovely old Victorian beauty do not do it justice. From the sidewalk to the corners of the inside one can see and feel it is in the hands of caring people. The owners Dusty and Steve are as amazing as the B&B they so obviously enjoy running. From Steve's delicious breakfasts to Dusty's late night conversations everything they do they do with heart. The rooms are beautiful, comfortable and clean, (thank you Russ). Arriving back after a day of sightseeing and shopping the house welcomes you with it's warmth. There are snacks and drinks ready at all times during the day and night and the luxurious towels were a delight after showering in the period decorated bathroom. I recommend this lovely B&B to everyone. A stay at the Lion and the Rose will rejuvenate your spirit and send you home pampered and rested. We hope to make it back to Portland and the Lion and the Rose in the near future.
I rate this B&B EE for Extraordinary Experience
My first visit to the Lion & the Rose B&B was an extraordinary experience in every way; luxurious, comfortable, peaceful, and friendly.
Innkeepers, Dustin and Steve, have taken the B&B experience to the high 9s. I woke each morning to an impeccably prepared formal breakfast awash with style, class, and variety with each new day.
The Starina room was spotless, fabulously appointed, and had the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in while away from home.
I am sincerely looking forward to my second visit in September.
Lion and the Rose a real gem
I had the opportunity to stay for a few nights at Portland's Lion and the Rose B&B. It is everything I love about B&Bs; comfortable, charming, and not the usual hotel room. Traveling on business, I had unique requirements of arriving late and leaving early. Steve and Dusty were more than accommodating. They stayed up until 1 AM for my arrival, and when I left at 6AM, they were thoughtful enough to have made coffee, had some protein bars (which I love) available, and were awake to wish me goodbye.
I had another workmate of mine traveling with us, and since they were full, they went FAR out of their way to find another room in town for him, and then escorted us to that place.
Truly astounding service.
A B&B done well!
My daughter and I stayed at The Lion & The Rose as our home base while looking at colleges in the Portland area. We were very pleased with the entire experience. The inn itself is truly special, furnished with many excellent period pieces. This inn has great bones and anyone interested in architecture or not will enjoy the generous proportions of the rooms. The dining room has a very special ceiling with a nod to the Arts & Crafts movement immediately following the Victorian period. Buffet breakfast served there is special and we enjoyed meeting people from various places who all sat together and talked at the long, beautifully set table. The innkeepers, two wonderful people, are clearly well-suited to their role and take a personal interest in their guests. We would certainly visit The Lion & The Rose again. Many B&B's have uncomfortably soft beds but not so at this one! The Lion & The Rose is a lovely place in a special residential neighborhood with very close proximity to good restaurants, coffee and shops. The overall good feeling of the inn comes directly from the extraordinary care and keeping of the hosts, both for the inn and the guests.
Fantastic B & B - Lion & the Rose
We were welcomed to the city of Portand on our first visit by our fantastic stay at this great neighborhood location B & B. It is a charming old house which has been lovingly restored, in a neighborhood of beautiful old homes. The owners and staff couldn't have made us feel more welcomed and comfortable with the great service. The breakfasts were outstanding, especially the apple crepes and chocolate muffins. The beds were so comfortable in nice sized rooms. The gardens and landscaping were very charming. We look forward to going back again.

James L. Reveal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
James Lauritz Reveal (1941 – January 9, 2015)[1] was a botanist who is perhaps best known for his work on suprageneric names, presented in an extensive website, which also presents material on plant taxonomy including the Reveal system.[2] He also published extensively on the North American flora and he was a member of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group and one of the authors of the APG II and APG III classifications.
At his death, Reveal was a professor emeritus at the University of Maryland, adjunct professor at Cornell University's Department of Plant Biology and honorary curator at the New York Botanical Garden.[3]

From the Publisher"Hagan's book allows us to travel with the commission and watch this disgraceful episode from a front-row seat. . . .A fascinating window into tribal politics."—Frederick E. Hoxie
"The Cherokee Commission set the stage for U.S.-Indian relations up to this day. This is a truly frightening and infuriating account."—David LaVere, author of Contrary Neighbors: Southern Plains and Removed Indians in Indian Territory

Ram Feast
(The). May morning is so called at Holne, near Dartmoor, because on that day a ram is run down in the "Ploy Field." It is roasted whole, with its skin and fur, close by a granite pillar. At mid-day a scramble takes place for a slice, which is supposed to bring luck to those who get it. Said to be a relic of Baal worship in England.
