Overall Experience
Rooms with great view, courtesy professional staff
March 28, 2015
The hotel is well kept with staff who are extremely helpful. Many of the rooms have a beautiful view of the waterway.
Nice Stay
March 25, 2015
It was a nice stay. I was hoping there would be entertainment since we were there on a weekend get away. I will not get room 620 again because it overlooked the swimming pool on the roof and I asked and paid for Marina view. That was disappointing. I had to rearrange the furniture so I could look at the Marina.
March 21, 2015
My experience at the Crown Plaza was very good the staff was very nice and friendly. I picked the Crown Plaza because it's a very relaxing hotel to stay in when you need a break from all the stress of the week. The rooms are nice the view is one of the reasons i like staying at this particular hotel. There is one thing that i felt that the room that i stayed didn't have is a refrigerator or microwave. Over all my stay was very good.
Nice location, great breakfast
March 19, 2015
This property is in a very central location to several downtown establishments. The view of the marina is quite nice. The breakfasts were very good, with plenty of options. Staff is very courteous and friendly. Parking is included and convenient, located in a parking garage just across from the hotel entrance.

The only good part of the movie.
At first, that witty exchange made absolutely no sense to me. But then, after falling down a flight of stairs and cracking my head against a slab of concrete, I suddenly understood what he was saying! I also realized I'm covered with invisible snakes that speak Portuguese and can time travel, and caramel is our mortal enemy!
After Clark and Robert do some more research (they stand around a bunch of open books while music plays), they find out that the Shrieker only kills people who have received some kind of magic evil death card of doom. If you get the cursed card (which everybody in the movie did), the only way you can keep from being murdered is to give the card to somebody else. It's the ultimate chain letter!
The monster kills off everybody but the cellar dweller and the two main characters (who anybody with 1/10th of a brain cell knew would survive), and Mr. Cellar reveals that he called up the Shrieker to do his bidding. I'm still not sure why, perhaps he wanted the abandoned hospital all to himself or maybe he liked having pets that moan and whine a lot (I could sell him The Hair Giant for $10 if that's the case). They shoot evil Mr. Cellar and manage to defeat the monster by putting a playing card on top of it (yup, just like how the evil was defeated from "Dark Carnival"). I think playing cards are some source of unspeakable power, and we should look into keeping them out of the hands of the Russians or the Iraqis or the Japanese or whoever the hell the US doesn't like these days. The film wraps up with an incredible verbal exchange, which sufficiently sums up the whole movie:
Robert: "Is that it?"
Clark: "I think so."
Is that it? Yup, I think so.

Douglas-Flurry. (2003 Wedding Register).
Dr. Miles F. Boyd, Jr. officiated at the ceremony. Jennifer Rushton, organist, and Kathy Monette, soloist, provided the music for the wedding.
Presented in marriage by her father, the bride wore a formal gown of white matte satin. The strapless fitted bodice was accented with pearl and beaded trim. The trim cascaded into a split cathedral-length train. Her veil of silk illusion fell from a comb of pearls and beads, which was finished with a corded edge. She carried a hand-tied bouquet of bridal roses and spring mix flowers.
Raegan Meeks of Cleveland served as maid of honor. Bridesmaids were Rebecca Douglas of Lancaster, Pennsylvania; Ashley Holland of Germantown, Tennessee; and Christa Redmond of Collierville, Tennessee. The bridesmaids wore floor-length gowns of periwinkle satin and carried bouquets of spring mix flowers. Savannah Roberts of Vancleave served as flower girl.
Serving as best man was the brother of the groom, Ladd Flurry of Vancleave. Groomsmen were Todd Carter of Madison, Michael Lowe of Jackson, and Alan Maddox of Vancleave. Ushers were Daniel Bauer of Little Rock, Arkansas; Scott Taylor of Vancleave; and Jeremy Thames of Gulfport. Tyler Roberts of Vancleave served as ring bearer.
Following the ceremony, the bride's parents honored the couple with a reception in Ashley Hall at Bonne Terre.
On the eve of the wedding, the groom's family hosted a dinner for the wedding party, family, and friends in the Fountain Room of Bonne Terre.
Following a honeymoon in Maui, Hawaii, the couple is at home in Brandon.

"Good place to work, but premium consumer/professional electronics brands is a tough category since the recession began "
- Comp & Benefits

- Senior Management
- Career Opportunities
I worked at D&MPros
The company has excellent people, great products and holds employees responsible and accountable for their performance. It also rewards outstanding performance by promoting from within.Cons
Due to the loss of disposable income, the recession has caused financial difficulties for all premium consumer electronics brands, including those manufactured by D&M Holdings. This has resulted in widespread layoffs and several management changes at the top of the organization. These changes might have been necessary, but made it difficult to stick with an overall strategy and provide the resources required to effectively grow the business.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Cut back on distributors to resume direct relationships with resellers so the company can stay abreast of the changes resellers are experiencing in the market. Increase investment in online marketing and e-commerce to pursue higher margins and gain independence from resellers who need to provide more shelf space than ever to inexpensive brands.RecommendsNo opinion of CEO

I worked at D&M full-time (more than 8 years)Pros
D&M manufactures and Distributes top name brand consumer electronics such as Denon, Marantz, McIntosh and Boston Acoustics. In the mid 2000's the company had a vision and growth plan expanding and purchasing complementary companies growing their portfolio in a very strategic manner. A very exciting time.Cons
In 2008 (?) D&M was purchased by Bain Capital and within two years the company began to dismantle portfolio and close multiple organizations and offices while also selling off much of its portfolio. D&M has experienced continuous downsizing over the last 5 years creating a very unstable and uncomfortable environment with employee staff.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Bring back senior management familiar with CE industry to salvage what is left of this company. Company is no longer innovative in product development rather they follow the trend setters trying to compete. Very sad.Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEO

Please take my music and share far & wide. Become a fan of Splashduck. Buy 1 song and all the more so you'll be supporting my urban farm activities, looking after small animals. Apart from creating music it's pretty much all I do with my time. I just love it:)
I started playing drums at 14 years old. Actually I started drumming on anything that I could hit with whatever I could hit things with at about 10 years old. If it made a cool sound, I hit it!
I've always had music in my head even when playing the drums on my own, which I've done a lot of.
When I play the drums I have a whole band with me and we're on some stage somewhere.
I also keep and care for quite a few ducks that make me smile and laugh every day:)
One day while I was refreshing their water and splashing water on the ground for them to dabble in the phrase "splashduck" came to me and I decided it was cool and dot com'd it.
I have now also aquired a virtual studio with all my musicians ready waiting for my instructions to play all the music that's been in my head all these years.
So, with my dot com "splashduck" and my ducks keeping me company each day, here I am with my music:)
My creations must please me first and then if someone else likes them well and good, I'm pleased. I'm even more pleased if I get some money for my creative work:)
Enjoy your day, it's surely a great one, beautiful, whatever the weather. Somehow we find the good in our days, we simply must:)
Tapping into creativity helps too.

The number of people who are wrongly convinced they are seriously ill is rising.
"I was living with this constant fear that I would be dead in three months," says Mark. The 32-year-old from Manchester had a pain in his lungs and immediately suspected advanced lung cancer. It became, he says, "an obsession". His GP was certain it wasn't cancer, but Mark couldn't stop thinking about it. He returned to his doctor several times, eventually persuading him to arrange a scan at the hospital. This too showed he didn't have the disease. Eventually Mark realised what he was suffering from was not cancer, but health anxiety. Catherine O'Neill, services manager at the helpline charity Anxiety U.K., says the disorder "is one of the things we get most calls about. The common fears are HIV, cancer and illnesses at the more severe end of the spectrum.
Quite often, we get people who nursed someone through cancer and they become preoccupied with the thought that they have the disease too, or it develops because they have heard or read about someone with the illness." Health anxiety is characterised by the excessive seeking of reassurance, from doctors or from family members. "What we always tell people on our helpline is that reassurance doesn't work," says O'Neill. "I have seen people who have convinced themselves they have a brain tumour — they go to their GP, they go for scans. When they are reassured they don't have a tumour, they still think what if they missed it? What if it was too small to see? What if this is one of those mistakes? Because the media highlights it so much when things do go wrong, it feeds the feeling in people with health anxiety that 'I could be the one that it goes wrong for.' People ring up and ask, 'Do you think I've got cancer?' I can't offer that reassurance because how would I know? But we do know that reassurance only works in the short term. It isn't long before those fears return." Another problem, O'Neill says, is that health anxiety — which used to be called hypochondria — is not taken seriously. "It can be seen as a bit of a joke, but it can have a serious impact on someone's life." Mark agrees. "When you're in the grip of it, it can be terrifying. It affects all aspects of your life — your work, your relationships — because you can't think about anything else, and you're living with this expectation of impending death." According to Professor Peter Tyrer, head of the centre for mental health at Imperial College London, "about 1-2 per cent of the population have pathological health anxiety," and in people who have already had treatment for a condition, it can be around 10 per cent. He thinks the number of people affected is rising.
The internet, he says, is one reason. "Everyone looks up their symptoms, but the internet tells you everything and nothing." O'Neill agrees: "Type in flu symptoms and you will be able to find a huge range of diseases from a common cold to the early stages of an HIV infection." Several studies have shown that cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which aims to change thought patterns and behaviour, can reduce the symptoms and hospital appointments. But waiting lists on the U.K. national health service can be long in some areas, and the therapy is not widespread. Tyrer is now leading a study of 448 people with health anxiety who are being treated in five hospitals. Treatment takes place in hospital clinics that deal with the illness the sufferer feels they have — such as cardiology or neurology clinics. "If you say, 'We want you to see a psychologist or psychiatrist' they say, 'I'm physically ill, not mentally ill.' So they are treated by general nurses who have been trained in this technique."
The study will finish in 2012, but early results look promising. "We have had dozens of letters from the patients saying how their lives have been turned around," says Tyrer. He describes a patient who had been treated for heart disease who had not been out of his house for a year because he was so terrified of having a heart attack; after a course of CBT, he was able to go on holiday. Tyrer is aiming to prove such treatment will eventually save the NHS money.
One CBT technique involves getting patients who believe their headaches are a sign of a brain tumour to create a pie chart where they imagine all the people who woke up that day with a headache, and list the causes for it according to probability: dehydration, a cold, migraine, tiredness, too much caffeine.— © Guardian Newspapers Limited, 2010

"The unmanned Soviet Lunokhod 1 and Lunokhod 2 rovers carried smaller arrays. Reflected signals were initially received from Lunokhod 1, but no return signals have been detected since 1971, at least in part due to some uncertainty in its location on the Moon. Lunokhod 2's array continues to return signals to Earth."
Now, I dislike the Moon landing conspiracy nutters as much as the next guy, but the retroreflector thing isn't going to convince them. But then again nothing really will...
Persistent "funny" comments that equate everything Indian to call center, outsourcing, curry and caste.
Hope the day will come when being ignorance and stupidity is no longer fashionable.
The Chandrayaan mission cost India USD 87 million which is just a shade over the cost of a Boeing 737-900ER aircraft (USD 85 million).
That is actually less than half of what the chinese spent (USD 180+ million).
So yes, there is some truth to the fact that this is indeed a very low cost mission.
Why is it bad for a language to have its own word for a country? It's not exactly uncommon - for example, the Spanish call the United States "los Estados Unidos", rather than its name in English, and they call Americans "estadounidenses", literally United Statesians. Pretty much every language has its own words for names of countries. And for what it's worth, we call it Spain, but the Spanish call it España.

Publisher's Description
Laura Sobiech tells the amazing story of how God used her sons battle with cancer to touch the lives of millions.
Okay, Lord, you can have him. But if he must die, I want it to be for something big. I want someones life to be changed forever.
This is what Laura Sobeich prayed when she found out her seventeen-year-old son had only one year to live. With this desperate prayer, she released her son to Gods will.
At that point, Zach Sobiech was just another teenager battling cancer. When his mother told him to think about writing good-bye letters to family and friends, he decided instead to write songs. One of them, Clouds, captured hearts and changed not one life but millions, making him an international sensation.
But Zachs story is not just about music. Its a testament to what can happen when you live as if each day might be your last. Its a story about the human spirit. Its about how God used a dying boy from a small town in Minnesota to touch the hearts of millionsincluding top executives in the music industry, major music artists, news anchors, talk show hosts, actors, priests and pastors, and school children across the globe.
Zach once said, I want to be known as the kid who went down fighting, and didnt really lose. Fly a Little Higher is about how God used Zach to do something big.
Author Bio
Laura Sobiech lives in Minnesota with her husband where they have raised four children: one married, one in college, one in heaven, and one in high school. Laura has spent the past three years walking the road of cancer with her teenage son, Zach, and blogging about their battle with the disease. She lives in Lakeland, Minnesota.

BernCaliforniaAge: 35-44Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Heartbreaking, yet encouraging!August 20, 2014BernCaliforniaAge: 35-44Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5
Boy, was this book difficult to get through! It was not that it was not interesting, in fact, it was written in a very conversational way tone. Laura immediately drew me in and I felt as if, I was her friend. Even more, she was kindly sharing her story with me. Unfortunately, I know how it ends and so it was both encouraging and heartbreaking at the same time.
It's often been said that parents should not have to bury their children. In my short life, I've had to bear witness to a number of friends who have had to do this very thing and it just feels wrong. The author, Laura must also do this and yet the Lord gave her grace to persevere and get through it. As if that wasn't difficult enough, Laura shares the tumultuous road she walked while they tried to fight the cancer, its affect on their family, and the weight it brought on her marriage (which almost didn't make it). What shone through most of all was how her dear son, Zach, radiated so much joy and thoughtfulness in the midst of his illness and the recognition that his life was going to be cut short.
My faith gives me a biblical worldview for all things in life, in particular suffering and disease. Although, I definitely do not pretend to understand how the Lord chooses to allow what He does, I do know that we all have an opportunity to respond to what our God allows in our life. Clearly, Zach was not perfect, but as his mother shares, from the beginning the Lord gave this young man an ability to respond with tremendous grace, love, and even joy.
In the beginning of the book, Laura shares how she doesn't appreciate "preachy" people that "dump tenets of their faith in your lap...and walk away." In short, saying that we must not only talk the talk, but in fact, walk the walk of faith. Just as James 1:22 tells us, if we speak of tremendous faith and knowledge and yet, still live as ones with no hope, we deceive ourselves. In short, the most powerful means of sharing the gospel is living the gospel. We must be not only hearers of the word, but doers of the word. Laura was privileged to have parents that wholly lived out their faith and then, God in His kindness and mercy, gave her Zach. Her precious son, despite his youth, was able to tell the story of his life of faith, by "being joyful in the midst of suffering, and he did it without uttering a word."
This was beautiful and hard book to read and in the end, this young man was able to leave a legacy much bigger than he could have ever imagined. I was heartbroken, yet encouraged... prepare the tissue!
debsMaineAge: 35-44Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Fly a little higher ~ Laura SobiechMay 26, 2014debsMaineAge: 35-44Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5Excellent, Inspirational, Extraordinary!! Must read this book!! When I picked this book, I was not sure I would be able to read it without a box of tissues.... Well I read it from cover to cover in one day and only needed a tissue at the very end. After reading the reviews of others and how emotional they were reading this I thought am I heartless? Then I finished and thought about the story and realized, I got it! I understand Zach's message, the story of Hope and an act of GOD's grace, it is so inspiring that if you believe in the power of GOD and HIS works then you will understand where Zach was in life. Don't misunderstand me, Zach's story is sad, however, his love of life and his faith in GOD brings perspective to his journey in life and dealing with death at such a young age. It is so inspirational and filled with love that you are feeling sad, but have that peace in your heart that says live, love, laugh even if you only have a short time on this earth.
Laura, Zach's mom, tells the story of Zach's journey with a very rare cancer (Osteosarcoma) and how he wrote a song to say goodbye, "Clouds" became #1 and the Hope for everyone to never give up the fight, always keep fighting till the end. She tells of family, friends, and all the people you touch in your journey through this life.
I want everyone to read this story and share it!! It is the best book I have read in a long time. So much love is in this book that you can't put it down. Laura did such a classy job telling this story that you want everyone to hear her side of being a mom and dealing with such an emotional rollercoaster of dealing with your son having cancer. Buy this book and then share with everyone, you won't be disappointed nor will you be able to put this book down. Thank you Laura for sharing such an emotional and encouraging part of your life.

loreallepaAge: 35-44Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Amazing Book!!!May 12, 2014loreallepaAge: 35-44Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5Last year, the video below was circling on Facebook. The title caught my eye, and I clicked on it. What followed was the most amazing and brave yet saddest thing I've ever watched. I've watched it 3 times, each time crying the entire way through.
Zach Sobiech, at the age of 14, found out he had a rare form of terminal cancer. So he became a rock star, and millions of people got to see his music before he passed away on May 20, 2013. While he was sick, his mother kept a journal which eventually turned a book.
I am dreading writing this review. But I have to keep my word of writing an honest review. I've read through chapter 10 and I just can't go further. Emotionally I just can't do it. Call me a wuss, call me a baby, it's all true. I've cried the entire way through the first 10 chapters and I just can't continue to do that to myself emotionally.
This story is real. What their family went through is absolutely heartbreaking, and I don't want my review to take away from that. Don't let my crybaby-ness deter you from buying this book. They are amazing people with quite a story to tell.
This book was provided to me free of charge by Book Look in return for my honest review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.

To help you navigate our fast-changing industry, RJI collects and assembles some of the top stories from around the Web of interest to journalism innovators and entrepreneurs.
There's something upside-down about broadband Internet service in the U.S., the country that helped invent the Internet. Americans in cities are paying more for slower Internet access — both at home and on mobile — than other parts of the developed world, according to a report last year from New America Foundation.
What attributes make a video go viral? And how are brands curating news content for their customers?
Does it constitute stealing when someone rewrites a line from Wikipedia? In the case of Benny Johnson at BuzzFeed, an online outcry led to his firing when 41 instances of plagiarism were revealed.
Most small-town editors have seen ads like this one. I've blocked out a few lines to protect the newspaper and the advertiser, but you get the point: It's an advertiser's effort to make their ad look like a news story without adhering to the standards of an actual news story.
As more newspapers adopt digital subscription models, publishers are facing challenging questions.
In August 2012, the Columbia Missourian launched an experiment: a pay model no other general-purpose newspaper in the country had tried. Instead of the popular metered model, which allows digital readers of papers to see a limited number of articles before being asked to pay, the Missourian let all readers see content for 24 hours. Once an article reached the end of its 24-hour window, it became available only to readers with a membership, which gave them full access to the Missourian's digital products. It didn't work.
Is your next commenting platform being built by The New York Times and The Washington Post? And do you need to verify an online video? There's a handbook for that.
During the next two semesters as a Reynolds Fellow at the Donald W. Reynolds Journalism Institute, Bimal Balakrishnan will explore the potential of advanced 3-D technologies for journalism and advertising.
How do we know if the information we're providing is having an impact? How do we know if our efforts are worth it? If our plan is "working"? Those questions don't come up much if your ultimate business success can be easily quantified (dollars, users, sales, reach, etc.). But what if your goals aren't so easily measured?
How is Witness helping citizens capture better video? And how does Ozy's content attract a different kind of audience?
The Reynolds institutional fellowship in St. Louis will focus on outreach to people and organizations who have demonstrated interest in one of four topic areas: the scientific aspects of health, education, arts or economic innovation. St. Louis Public Radio plans to use social media channels and technology-based platforms, along with more traditional journalistic techniques, to identify influencers in each topic area and map their networks.
There is plenty of advice available for startups and entrepreneurs, but what do you do if you are inside a company and want to develop a new concept or project? There are no incubators, angel investors or college courses around to help you.
When Dan Schultz first described Truth Goggles close to three years go, he deemed it a "magic button" that could tell you "what is true and what is false on the website you are viewing."
Alex Remington and The Washington Post will study how news organizations can display and package stories to best serve their readers.
Newly released survey information from the Journalism Digital News Archive initiative of RJI confirms that news libraries are highly prized by news organizations for the value they bring for producing quality journalism.
When I read about some really interesting, disruptive innovation happening at The New York Times or The Washington Post or even smaller community papers, I tend to shake my head and wistfully note "if only we had the resources." We can't afford to think like that any more — really, no one in our business can.

Backed By a 30 Day No Questions Asked 100% Money Back Guarantee, 99.9% Uptime Guarantee. Read What Our Clients Say About Us! Click here to know more What Exactly Is Debt Settlement? By Christina Costa Debt settlement is when you negotiate with your creditors to pay your debts off, at a lower percentage than what you owe. Usually people who are in a good amount of debt will get help from a debt settlement company. It is possible to try and get out of debt on your own, but sometimes it is a good idea to let the professionals work out the negotiations on your behalf. You can do your own research on the internet and find many reputable companies. Free quotes can be availiable to you in minutes. A debt settlement company has specific negotiation strategies and experience in dealing with creditors. They can usually settle debts between 40 to 60% of what your original balance is. Some people are still unsure at how the debt settlement process works. This is a process that involves the debt settlement company and the credit collection agencies. People who are in debt usually have ended up there because they are continually borrowing from creditors. Eventually the consumer will run out of available credit and not even able to make minimum monthly payments that are due. Sometimes the debt is so overwhelming that people think bankruptcy is the best solution. Well, that not only can hurt your credit for years to come but it can also hurt your creditors. If you file for bankruptcy then chances are your creditors will get nothing of what is owed to them, so settling for a percentage of the debt is better than nothing. Settling your debts can take anywhere from one to three years, just so you make sure you allow for the appropriate time for your debts to be negotiated lower. One benefit to debt settlement is it gives you the right to let the debt collectors know they can stop calling! Some people feel harassed by their creditors and once you start with a settlement company you can let them know you are working with them. This will definitely cut back or stop the calls. It is still their legal right to be able to call and ask for your payment. If you give them the name of the company that is working on your debt settlement then they might just want to communicate with them How To Slash Your Debt! Become Debt Free, One Step at a Time! Debt Free Living! Page 1 Presented by Daniel Toriola instead. Keep in mind that the most important thing in regard to debt settlement is finishing the process. It is necessary for the company that you work with to have you sign a contract that gives them authorization to negotiate on your behalf. By signing over the Limited Power of Attorney, you are giving them control. Now you are responsible for depositing money into a settlement account that will be used to repay your creditors. After the payment is made then the debt has been settled in full and you have a closed account. There are many debt settlement companies that you can research online and they offer free quotes immediately. Just make sure that you find a company that works best for you and can negotiate as much of your debt as possible.

Visit http://www.eQuoteGrabber.com Irs Tax Debt Reduction Guide Legally remove 90% of your IRS tax debt and save thousands of dollars. Page 2 Presented by Daniel Toriola How To Find A Legitimate Debt Settlement Company By Sam J. Nikward It is important that before you consider filing for bankruptcy protection or go on a debt management plan that you consider contacting a debt settlement company first. What is debt settlement? Debt settlement is a way of negotiating and reducing the amount of debt you have with each creditor. A debt settlement company can negotiate with your creditors on your behalf and get them agree to a lesser amount. In addition to negotiating the amount owed to each creditor, a debt settlement company will also send them the payment for you, take care of all the paperwork and agreements reached with each company and also negotiate with how the settlement of your debt will be reported to the credit bureaus. You may wonder why companies would agree to lowering the amount that you owe them. In most cases companies realize that if you are not paying back the unsecured debt that you owe them, unless they can come to some terms to help you pay it back they will likely end up getting nothing. So when you look at it from their perspective, something is definitely better than nothing, even if it is less than they were originally owed. Using a debt settlement company can be an excellent way to recover your financial freedom and repair your credit rating. The best thing about using the debt settlement process is that after the debt has been paid, you owe nothing at all. The debt is settled and you are debt free. So now that you know what a debt settlement company is, and what it is that they do, the next question is how do you find a good, reputable debt settlement company? In order to find a reliable debt settlement company you will have to do a little research. You can start by looking in the usual places – online in search pages and in the phone book. When looking for them keep in mind the following criteria and see if you can get these answers: How long have they been in business? Are they registered with the Better Business Bureau? If so, how is their rating with them? Do they have references that you can check up on? It is extremely important that you entrust your financial future to a reputable company, and the more you know about them the better able you are to make an informed decision.

Prius = Emergency Home Generator
Was reading a thread about a guy, caught in the ice storm in New England, who powered his fridge/furnace from his Prius.
Hooked up to the big batteries...engine turned on every hour to charge. Used 5 gallons of gas over several days.
Discussion moved on to how, as green Americans, we can use our Priuses to buy electricity and store it, when it's cheap, and sell it back when it's expensive. Example: this same New Englander stores electricity while he sleeps, and sells it back to the eastern grid as it ramps up each day.

Como Prevenir Y Curar El Cancer review reveals that the tutorials is newbie friendly but lets find out by going into detail about its strengths and weaknesses through a brief Como Prevenir Y Curar El Cancer Review.

THE BAD Well there is no bad part about Como Prevenir Y Curar El Cancer ..nonetheless there is no denying that this is an excellent product in its genre.

All quotes tagged Oppressed
(175 quotes found)
"There's a certain Slant of light, Winter Afternoons That oppresses, like the Heft Of Cathedral Tunes"
"The more man clings to religion, the more he believes. The more he believes, the less he knows. The less he knows, the more stupid he is. The more stupid, the easier he can be governed! The easier to govern, the better he may be exploited. The more exploited, the poorer he gets. The poorer he gets, the richer and mightier the domineering classes get, the more riches and power they amass, the heavier their yoke upon the neck of the people."
"Ridicule first, then shame and condescension are the weapons and ammunition - in the mental manipulation and psychological terrorism of the oppressed. Self-esteem, truth and fellowship among peers are their able defenses - in a counter-attack on the lies: of fear, inferiority and a mandatory deference - intended by the oppressors."
"My name is William Tell:
when little oppressions touch me
arrows hidden in my cloak
whisper, "Ready, ready.""
"The only kind of freedom that the mob can imagine is freedom to annoy and oppress its betters, and that is precisely the kind that we mainly have"
"He was oppressed and He was afflicted, yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so He opened not His mouth"
"Art is on the side of the oppressed. Think before you shudder at the simplistic dictum and its heretical definition of the freedom of art. For if art is freedom of the spirit, how can it exist within the oppressors?"
"I am treated as evil by people who claim that they are being oppressed because they are not allowed to force me to practice what they do."

University of Louisville Hospital closing in on deal with partner
- David A. Mann
- Reporter- Louisville Business First
- Email | Twitter
A partnership deal is close for University of Louisville Hospital, but nothing is final yet.
Following an executive session on Thursday afternoon, the University of Louisville board of trustees voted to give Dr. David Dunn, executive vice president of health affairs, the authority to sign a deal that would align the hospital with a private-sector partner.
Officials with University Medical Center Inc. — the organization that operates U of L Hospital — and U of L began looking for a partner for the hospital through a formal request for proposals issued in February. The system is seeking a partner that could help the 404-bed hospital overcome financial challenges and make improvements.
After being granted the authority, Dunn said he expects to make the decision in the next two to three weeks. He said he cannot disclose who the partner would be or how many offers were on the table. However, he did indicate that more than one proposal still is being considered.
"(The decision) really comes down to what is best in terms of the health-science center," he said.
Last year, hospital officials were in talks to join a merger between Jewish Hospital & St. Mary's HealthCare Inc. and Saint Joseph Health System. But Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear blocked that deal, arguing it was not in the best interest of the state.
The nonprofit University Medical Center leases the land where the hospital is located from the state, and it has an academic affiliation agreement with U of L to serve as a teaching institution for medical school students.
The merger was a controversial subject as critics worried that it could lead to the hospital — the safety net health care institution for the area — eliminating procedures that are not in line with Catholic health directives, including some reproductive services.
David A. Mann covers these beats: Health care, health insurance, distribution/logistics (UPS), manufacturing (GE, Ford), environment, travel, minority/women's affairs and Southern Indiana.

Accelerating clean energy solutions that improve the economy, national security and the environment
Energy is a key pillar of our lives–it runs our cars, charges our computers and powers our factories. Globally, energy use is expected to increase 35 percent over the next 25 years, driven almost entirely by demand due to increases in electricity use and vehicle fleets. The growing need for energy around the world is likely to make it an ever more precious commodity–forcing up prices and increasing global instability. Additionally, the world's energy sector is responsible for approximately 70 percent of global carbon emissions, the direct cause of climate change.
A business-as-usual approach to energy policy threatens global economic competitiveness, national security and the environment. We must fundamentally transform the manner in which we produce, distribute and consume energy if we are to reduce dependence on foreign oil, create jobs, enhance global competitiveness and decrease carbon emissions.

A sweet drink made with any of various liquors, water (still or sparkling), sugar and, sometimes, mint (as with mint julep). The origin of the word julep is the Persian word julâb, which means "rosewater." In 15th-century England, the word "julep" was used to describe a sugar syrup variously flavored and often mixed with medication.

Cutting Wiggle Wire Channel
So I bought 23-8 foot sections of wiggle wire channel for my new greenhouse I am putting up. What I did not think about is how to cut this stuff. What do people do? I have read about people using circular saws, etc to cut it, but that sounds really dangerous. Not only from all of the aluminum fines, etc. but what if it graps a small piece and launchs it at your head?
Has anyone used snips to cut it? I am almost regretting getting it now and thinking I may return most of it and just use nail down strips of wood. My greenhouse is in my backyard and the kids like to run around back there barefoot. I would feel really bad if they got aluminum chips in their feet or worse when mowing the lawn.
Grrr. I bought the pipe straps so I would not have to drill the purlins (we wound up having to drill the purlins on the end bows and put in bolts or they kept sliding through. I am less worried about the steel as it will rust out in the yard over the course of years, but aluminum is a base metal so it will never really rust out.
Am I worrying too much about this? I am predrilling the u-channel over a paper bag so most of the tailings/fines are falling in there. I then tap on the uchannel to get as much out as I can. Sweep the floor and carefully throw away the paper bags I ripped up and put on the floor to catch what hit the floor. Then I use tek screws to secure the channel to the 2x8 baseboards.
I like the idea of the u-channel, just really hate the idea of drilling and cutting aluminum. If they made wood u-channel I would have just bought that. Cut wood, dust goes into yard and is decomposed a few months later.
You can cut aluminum with a power miter saw or on a table saw . I would use a fine tooth (60-80 tooth) carbide blade for the cleanest cut . If these methods sound too dangerous they could also be cut with a hacksaw with a fairly course blade . Aluminum will clog up a fine tooth hacksaw blade. I have cut a good bit of aluminum on tablesaws and power miter saws with no problem . It could be done with a circular saw but , I would try and clamp the piece down before attempting the cut . Always wear safety glasses when cutting metal and the burrs that are created by cutting should be removed with a file before putting the piece into service . Is it possible to do the cutting in a garage or driveway and the just sweep up the chips ?
