The cosmic forces of the world that result from our decisions and interactions with buses and bus drivers.
When you are in traffic and you let a bus merge ahead of you, you are generating good busma. If you get on the bus and give the driver nice smile and say "good morning", you are generating good busma. If you are rude either in traffic around buses or if you are rude while riding the bus, you are generating bad busma and the cosmic forces will deal with you later.

• Sterling silver dragonfly pendant enhancer made from various shaped gemstone cabochons
• Green magnesite, lapis, blue turquoise, white mother of pearl with black spinel
• Measures 3" long x 2-3/8" wide and has an oversized snap hinge bail
• Designed and crafted in America with gemstones from around the world
To many people, dragonflies represent rebirth and transformation. The charm of this dragonfly enhancer was created by combining the texture of ribbed sterling silver with the smooth beauty of gemstones. This bold statement-making piece has green magnesite wings, a lapis body, and a faceted blue turquoise tail. A white mother of pearl head and two black spinel eyes give him personality and life-like charm, and a peridot directly under the bail adds sparkle. Designer Victoria Adams hopes that this piece will bring its wearer closer to nature in true appreciation of its beauty.

Shaw Media in Canada has cancelled Bomb Girls after two seasons. The TV series airs on Global Television in Canada and on ReelzChannel here in the US.
Bomb Girls revolves around a group of Canadian women who work in a munitions factory as they build bombs for the Allies during World War II. The cast includes Meg Tilly, Jodi Balfour, Charlotte Hegele, Ali Liebert, Antonio Cupo, Sebastian Pigott, Peter Outerbridge, Anastasia Phillips, Jim Codrington, and Lisa Norton. Rosie O'Donnell guest-starred during the second season.
Though there won't be a third season, Global has ordered a two-hour movie that will wrap up the series. A release notes that it "will conclude the rich storylines and the amazing journeys of these beloved characters which have strongly resonated with the show's loyal fans."
The TV movie will air in Winter 2014 in Canada. It seems likely that Reelz will purchase domestic rights to air the conclusion around that same time.
What do you think? Are you sorry that Bomb Girls has been cancelled? Are you looking forward to the movie?

Why Get Tested?
To help diagnose the cause of inflammation of the pericardium and/or fluid accumulation around the heart
When to Get Tested?
When a doctor suspects that someone has a condition associated with inflammation of the pericardium and/or fluid accumulation around the heart
Sample Required?
A sample of fluid collected from the pericardial sac using a procedure called a pericardiocentesis
Test Preparation Needed?
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Pericardial fluid is a liquid that acts as a lubricant for the movement of the heart. It is found in small quantities between the two layers of the pericardium. Pericardial fluid is produced by mesothelial cells in the membranes and acts to reduce friction as the heart pumps blood.
A variety of conditions and diseases can cause inflammation of the pericardium (pericarditis) and/or excessive accumulation of pericardial fluid (pericardial effusion). Pericardial fluid analysis is a group of tests that evaluate this liquid to help make a diagnosis as to the cause of the increased fluid.
The two main reasons for fluid accumulation in the pericardial space are:
- An imbalance between the pressure within blood vessels—which drives fluid out of blood vessels—and the amount of protein in blood—which keeps fluid in blood vessels. The fluid that accumulates in this case is called a transudate. Transudates are most often caused by congestive heart failure or cirrhosis.
- An injury or inflammation of the pericardium, in which case the fluid that accumulates is called an exudate. This type of fluid may be the result of conditions such as infection, malignancies (metastatic cancer, lymphoma, mesothelioma), or autoimmune disease.
Differentiation between the types of fluid is important because it helps diagnose the specific disease or condition. Doctors and laboratorians use an initial set of tests (cell count, protein or albumin level, and appearance of the fluid) to distinguish between transudates and exudates. Once the fluid is determined to be one or the other, additional tests may be performed to further pinpoint the disease or condition causing pericarditis and/or pericardial effusion.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A sample of fluid is collected from the pericardial sac by a doctor with a syringe and needle using a procedure called a pericardiocentesis.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No special preparation is usually needed.

Ranked #1 in the Country, Prim becomes D2's Top Swimmer in the 200 Fly
December 4, 2009
MISENHEIMER, N.C. – Thanks to her national qualifying time two weeks ago, Pfeiffer University freshman swimmer Julianna Prim (Yadkinville, NC) is currently ranked as the number one division two swimmer in the 200-yard butterfly. Pfeiffer, as an NCAA school, will be making its first appearance at the national meet in mid-March. Pfeiffer qualified for the national meet back in the 80's as a NAIA school.
Prim gains the national recognition after her time of 2:04.66 in the 200 fly at the Wingate Fall Frenzy. Prim holds the number one ranking in the country by just under two seconds. Falcon swimming will get back to action on New Year's Day at St. Leo University in Florida.

10 Promising Franchises for 2011
Energy KitchenRed MangoSmashburgerKumonPlanet BeachEdible ArrangementsBrightStar CareStratus Building SolutionsJunk KingPlanet Fitness
Energy Kitchen's menu has a built-in healthy factor: nothing is over 500 calories and every dish is grilled, baked, or steamed. Founded in 2004 and headquartered in New York City, Energy Kitchen ranked No. 3,276 on the 2010 Inc. 5000 list, with an impressive growth rate of 59 percent over three years, and sales may accelerate. Randy Schechter, the company's founder, recently told Retail Traffic magazine that the company plans to turn its 10 locations into 1,000 over the next 10 years.
One of the fastest-growing purveyors of all-natural frozen yogurt, Red Mango made its U.S. debut in 2007 when it relocated from South Korea to Texas. In 2009, the Dallas-based company opened 42 franchises in its home state and New York and hopes to expand to over 550 locations across the country by 2015. "We're experiencing the strongest franchise growth in our company's history," said James Franks, the company's VP of franchising, in a recent company statement.
The self-proclaimed "better burger" joint might just get super-sized in 2011. Smashburger currently operates about 100 stores across the country, but plans to double its juicy footprint in the next year. The chain is expanding aggressively in the Northeast, having signed franchise agreements for 20 more stores in Long Island and will hit Brooklyn, New York, within the year. Smashburger is owned by the Consumer Capital Partners, a private investment and concept development firm based in Denver.
Kumon has held a firm foothold as America's largest after-school education company for nearly 50 years. Headquartered in Teaneck, New Jersey, Kumon operates nearly 1,500 franchises in the United States and a total of 1,775 in North America. And according to Hideki Kusuzawa, president of Kumon North America, the company has plans to open 100 more centers nationwide in 2011. "We attract former teachers, engineers, lawyers, and corporate executives looking for a rewarding, flexible, and viable business opportunity," Kusuzawa said in a recent statement.
Ten years ago, the spa industry reported yearly revenues of around $5 billion. Now, according to the International Spa Association, annual revenues generated from spas total more than $15 billion. One reason for the boom is that an increasing number of men are frequenting spas. Stephen Smith, the founder of Planet Beach, operated health clubs and gyms for eight years before establishing Planet Beach in 1994. Based in New Orleans, the company now operates 340 franchise units in 38 states and 9 countries, and, according to a recent statement, the company "expects 2011 to be a promising year."
Edible Arrangements, as its name implies, sells hand-sculpted fresh-fruit arrangements. The company, which began franchising back in 2001, has grown remarkably well over the last 10 years. In fact, it recently signed its 1,000th new store franchise agreement. In 2010, Edible Arrangements opened 84 stores in the U.S., and plans to open several more stores—from Massachusetts to Mumbai—in the next several months. "We started franchising in 2001 and the continuous growth of Edible Arrangements has been very exciting," said founder and CEO Tariq Farid, in a statement. "Our proven franchise system, healthful high-quality products, and our franchisees are the keys to our success."
As America ages, franchises that provide in-home care to the elderly stand to gain. BrightStar Care, based in Gurnee, Illinois, has been franchising since 2005 and has grown from merely 23 franchises in 2007 to 163 in 2010. The company plans to open as many as 400 locations in 2011. Shelly Sun, the CEO and co-founder of BrightStar, noted in a recent interview that the company is "planning to launch 7 new brands over the next 10 years, approximately 1 every 12-24 months, to allow for current owners to expand their service offerings, as well as allow for new owners to come into our system."
It's a fact: offices need to get cleaned. Stratus Building Solutions, founded in 2004, provides cleaning services for commercial buildings, retail properties, medical facilities, and schools. Based in St. Louis, the company has grown from 708 franchises in 2007 to 3,512 franchises in 2010. Pete Frese, the company's president, said in a recent release that the "dedication of our growing international network of franchise owner-operators and employees complement our aggressive growth plans and customer service commitments for the year ahead… Market growth in 2011 is very bright."
If you've seen the reality TV show "Hoarders," you'll understand how necessary a service like Junk King truly is. Founded in 2005 by Mike Andreacchi and Brian Reardon, the San Carlos, California-based company quickly began spreading to locations across the country and most recently to Massachusetts, Arizona, and Colorado. Dennis Mulgannon, Junk King's director of franchises, recently noted on the company's blog that "The growth of [Junk King's] business is skyrocketing due to the millions of people constantly looking for dependable services to clean clutter and unwanted items from their homes or businesses."
Known for its quirky commercials ("I lift things up and put them down"), Planet Fitness is a fast-growing gym franchise that offers competitive prices to its customers, as well a couple of off-beat promotions, like pizza night and Tootsie Rolls—who said going to the gym had to be healthy? The Dover, New Hampshire-based company also has a "Judgement Free Zone" (sic) philosophy, aimed at providing a comfortable environment in which members can work out without feeling the pressure of having to look good. Founded in 1992 and ranked No. 920 on the 2010 Inc. 5000 list, the company has exhibited a 326 percent growth rate over the last three years.

Morsi 'ready to unite' with every Egyptian for sake of national security
President Mohamed Morsi on Monday urged political groups to put their differences behind them and pursue comprehensive national reconciliation to face the myriad challenges currently facing Egypt.
Morsi's call came during a speech before a conference of Islamist parties on Monday at Cairo's International Conference Centre, which primarily tackled the crisis with Ethiopia over its divisive Grand Renaissance Dam project on the Blue Nile.
"I am ready to go to everybody, individuals or groups, for the nation's sake," Morsi said, adding that political transition depended on Egyptians to "unite to face challenges and achieve a common strategy between the leadership and the people in order to protect history, the present and the future."
Criticism of Morsi's performance by opposition forces has snowballed recently following the breakout of the Nile water crisis between Egypt and Ethiopia.
Observers claim Morsi is attempting to premeditate impending protests on 30 June, which activists hope will see millions taking to the streets demanding Morsi step down.
Opposition groups, most notably the National Salvation Front, have shunned the regime's call for dialogue and are currently preparing for the mass protests, the first anniversary of Morsi's inauguration as Egyptian president.
A popular campaign, Tamarod, has continued to collect signatures for a petition approving its demand for early presidential elections.
Campaign representatives claimed Monday Tamarod was approaching its 15-million signature target.
Islamist groups and parties, which widely support Morsi, have meanwhile given off mixed signals over their participation on 30 June.
Salafi leader and former presidential hopeful Hazem Salah Abou Ismail has reportedly called on supporters to protest outside Media Production City 6th of October City.
The Muslim Brotherhood says it will only defend its branch offices, unless opposition activists provoke members further.
Top Headlines
Opposition parties must not forget the point that Morsi came into power with 52% majority. Lets suppose opposition are successful in toppling the Morsi's govt. Don't they think that as a result of this unlawful act of opposition parties, 52% majority of Egypt would come into streets and small groups of opposition would never be able to rule the Egypt. And Egypt would keep on declining Economically and Politically on World map. Please don't underestimate Muslim Brother Hood's strength.

OAMS thrusters: (1) provided thrust for the Gemini spacecraft to rendezvous with the Agena target vehicle; (2) controlled the spacecraft in orbit; (3) enabled separation of the Gemini from the second stage Titan launch vehicle and inserted it into orbit; and (4) provided abort capability. The OAMS consisted of 100-pound thrusters to maneuver the craft axially, vertically, and laterally; 85-pound motors for forward and rearward motions; and 25-pound motors to control the spacecraft in its pitch, yaw, and roll axes. The four 100-pound thrusters were located around the exterior middle of the crew cabin.
Gemini OAMS motors used hypergolic (self-igniting) propellants which made the system simple and reliable and eliminated the need for an igniter. They performed satisfactorily in all Gemini missions up to the conclusion of the program in November 1966.
The McDonnell Douglas Corporation gave this OAMS thruster to the Smithsonian Institution in 1969.

text: I'm not only a musician and teacher; I've been a PDA enthusiast for many years. It all started in the mid 90s, when I got my first handheld, Apple's short-lived Newton. I moved on to the Palm Pilot and a great piece of software called ittyMIDI, which allowed me to play back MIDI files, change tempo, set volume levels, and mute individual tracks. When my Palm Pilot died, I moved on to a Windows Mobile Pocket PC, which had more multimedia capabilities and a variety of third-party programs that turned the Pocket PC into a musician's helper.

TAHOE/TRUCKEE, Calif. — A few years ago, Todd Jackson, director of the Kings Beach-based race company Big Blue Adventure, noticed the Donner Lake Triathlon was for sale.
"People think it's funny you can buy a triathlon," Jackson told business owners and public officials at a Good Morning Truckee breakfast presentation last month. "But you can. It's a business."
The business of adventure racing boosts Tahoe/Truckee's economy every year, Jackson said, and if events are marketed right, the power is there to give it an even greater leg up.
Just look at the figures.
Jackson said industry surveys show the number of people participating in triathlons nationwide has increased over the past five years. Two million racers registered last year, as opposed to 1.5 million five years prior, he said.
Racers are motivated by a desire to boost personal times and/or to run longer, more challenging courses, said Jackson — meaning those who run one course are likely to run more in the future.
And the fact participants are an average of age of 37 and have families opens up possibilities for non-traditional events.
Responding to these trends, Jackson said Big Blue Adventure endeavors to offer a range of races aimed at capturing his entire market. This year's Donner Lake Triathlon will include sprint and Olympic courses, as well as a children's triathlon.
"I'm trying to get the word out about the Donner Lake Triathlon," said Jackson, who sponsors more than 20 events in Tahoe/Truckee area every year. "It's such a beautiful area. I want people in the triathlon world to think, 'you gotta do it.'"
Jackson hopes his marketing efforts will grow the Donner Lake event from last year's 800 participants to a target registration near 1,300. This summer's race is scheduled for July 15.
Visitors spend an average of about $145 per person, per day at area establishments, said Ron Treabess of the North Lake Tahoe Resort Association.
The statistic is a fuzzy average, he said, because it includes people who use a variety of services. Some people camp, others cook in their condos, while others may go as far as to stay at The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe and eat three fine meals a day.
Additionally, participants who stay overnight pay an extra 2 percent transient occupancy tax (TOT), a surcharge on hotel and motel room rates. The tax goes to supporting regional public improvement projects in transportation, infrastructure and other public projects.
Triathlons, bicycling and running events are not the only adventure-based events to bring money into the region.
Consider stand-up paddleboarding, or SUP.
Ronnie Ayres, owner of Watermans Landing in Carnelian Bay, said SUP is the fastest growing water sport in the world; SUP manufacturers have seen a 200 percent increase in sales and are maxing out their ability to keep up with demand.
The sport is also attracting big-name sponsors, such as the outdoor gear provider Quicksilver and the Southern California based wetsuit and all-things-water maker, O'Neill.
SUP is successful for a number of reasons, Ayres says, but its ability to move to inland water is key.
"Tahoe is one of the stand-up paddle destinations of the world, a leader in the touring market for stand-up paddling," Ayres said. "It's the clarity of the water that brings people here — the serenity of being six feet above the surface rather than in a kayak."
With nine events scheduled for the Tahoe/Truckee area between May and September of this year, SUP might prove to be a large boost for the regional economy.
Ayers recounted last Memorial Day Weekend, when 75 participants showed up for a race on Donner Lake despite the frigid temperatures and sideways snowfall.
"Can you imagine the enthusiasm on a sunny weekend?" Ayres asked. "Can you imagine how much fun this race would be?"

The Chiefs scored three tries to one to beat the Crusaders in Hamilton.
The match was tight throughout, the Chiefs having a slender 15 – 13 lead at half time, but streaked away in the last quarter to win 28 – 19.
The top two New Zealand sides produced a wonderfully entertaining match, keeping spectators on the edge of their seats for most of the eighty minutes. Two of the three tries scored by the Chiefs were somewhat lucky, coming from kicks charged down. Aaron Cruden charged down Dan Carter before Craig Clarke charged down Tom Taylor.
Between the two charge-down tries, Matt Todd and the Crusaders hit back with a forward dominated move. The Crusaders stayed in touch through the boot of Tom Taylor, kicking the conversion as well as four penalties throughout the match.
Bundee Aki scored the only try of the second half, in the last quarter of the match. This came from a period of sustained pressure on the Crusaders tryline. An earlier Chiefs try was ruled out after Steve Walsh went to the TMO, but Aki scored from the same period to even that out.
In terms of the Internationals coming up in June, Aaron Cruden completely outclassed Dan Carter, who didn't even take the Crusaders' kicks at goal. His defence was impeccable, as was the rest of the Chiefs' tackling. Carter has not looked himself in recent times, and this has resulted in the Crusaders' recent slump in form.
The Chiefs have now all but wrapped up the New Zealand conference, and have gone a long way in assuring themselves of finishing the season on top of the overall log as well. The Chiefs are now off until after the International window, having a bye next weekend, while the Crusaders host the Waratahs next weekend before going into the break.
Chiefs: 28 (15)
Tries: Aaron Cruden, Craig Clarke, Bundee Aki
Conversions: Aaron Cruden (2)
Penalties: Aaron Cruden (3)
Crusaders: 19 (13)

Romuald Hazoumè: Dance of the Butterflies
- 14 February — 31 December 2015 *on now
Dance of the Butterflies is a stunning new art work by one of Africa's foremost contemporary artists Romuald Hazoumè. It features swarms of multicoloured 'butterflies' which will take over the Museum's Living Worlds gallery, interacting with the Museum's own collections. Hazoumè, whose work was featured in We Face Forward, the Manchester-wide celebration of West African art and culture in 2012, will return to create this work for Manchester Museum. The hundreds of butterflies are made from off-cuts of vibrant African wax-print fabrics from the artist's home country of Benin. Dance of the Butterflies represents a very African take on politics, exploitation and the 'butterfly effect'- the way in which tiny impulses within chaotic systems can lead to unexpectedly serious effects. The display opens to coincide with the reopening of the Whitworth, following a £15million redevelopment.
Making Monuments on Rapa Nui: Statues from Easter Island

Making Monuments on Rapa Nui
The Statues from Easter Island
1 April-6 September 2015
Manchester Museum
Free entry
The monumental stone statues of Rapa Nui (named Easter Island by European explorers) in the Pacific are some of the most widely recognised archaeological objects in the world. Based on fieldwork on the island by Professor Colin Richards, an archaeologist at The University of Manchester, the exhibition will take a fresh look at these impressive statues, or 'moai'. Making Monuments will look at how the statues were made, the role they played in the lives of the islanders, how they were quarried and transported across the island, and what they mean. It will also deconstruct some of the myths about the island, and discuss current theories about the decline of this astonishing culture. As part of the exhibition, Manchester Museum will show one of the statues, Moai Hava, which was collected from Rapa Nui in 1868, and is on loan from the British Museum.

Architecture and Design Authority John Loring Speaks at Kent StatePosted Sep. 9, 2011
The Thomas Schroth Visiting Artist Series and Kent State University's College of the Arts presents a lecture by John Loring on Thurs., Oct. 6 at 7:30 p.m. Loring will discuss his newest book entitled Joseph Urban, a biography on Urban, a prolific Gilded Age architect, illustrator, designer and significant set designer of the 20th century. The lecture is free and open to the public and will take place in E. Turner Stump Theatre, located in the Music and Speech Center, 1325 Theatre Drive in Kent, OH.
A book signing and free dessert reception will take place following the lecture. Reservations are not required. Books will be available for purchase before and after the lecture in the lobby. Only cash or check will be accepted.
Loring is a former New York bureau chief of Architectural Digest and design director emeritus of Tiffany & Co. He graduated from Yale University, has an honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree from Pratt Institute, and studied at the École des Beaux-Arts. He has authored 21 books on Tiffany & Co. design, style and entertaining.
John Loring's Joseph Urban is filled with Urban's drawings, more than 200 color illustrations including paintings, renderings, stage sets, as well as photographs of both interiors and exteriors of his work. Joseph Urban is a lavish celebration of this prolific artist, architect, and designer, whose accomplishments include magnificent Art Deco buildings, spectacular Ziegfeld Follies productions, and dramatic sets for the Metropolitan Opera. Loring will take the audience through a slide show featuring the famous and inexhaustible list of projects by Urban.
Joseph Urban (1872-1933) began his career as an architect and artist in Vienna before moving to American in 1911. In 1914 he moved to New York, where he ultimately signed on as set designer of the Metropolitan Opera. He also became immersed in designing nightclubs, hotel lounges, skyscrapers, theaters, stage, and film sets, and even children's books. His creative output was immense but, unfortunately, little remains of his work except the Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, and the New School and the base of the Hearst Tower in New York.
Please call the College of the Arts office at 330-672-2760 with any questions.
John Loring's visit is made possible by the Thomas Schroth Visiting Artist Series which brings diverse views to Kent State in the fields of architecture, visual art, music, theatre, and dance to share interdisciplinary experiences with students, faculty and the community. The Series was created by Max (dec.) and Cecile Draime in memory of their dear friend and architect Thomas Schroth.

Maximum points – Jimmie Johnson is accustomed to leading the Sprint Cup points during the Chase. In order to take the lead, he won for the fourth time this season and led more laps than any other driver. As a result, he leads Brad Keselowski by two.
Say bye-bye – Denny Hamlin overcame an early penalty, but his championship hopes took what is almost surely a death blow due to mysterious electrical problems that relegated him to 33rdplace. He lost 29 points to the leader and trails by 49.
Notable numbers
7 – Jimmie Johnson victories at Martinsville
11 – Races since Hendrick Motorsports' previous victory
15 – Richard Petty victories at Martinsville
19 – Hendrick Motorsports victories at Martinsville
Quotable quotes
"You get a little something in your back pocket when you've got that first pit-road stall." – Jimmie Johnson
"Everything I'd gain on the track, I'd lose on pit road." – Clint Bowyer
"It was a solid day, but we'd have liked to have been just a little bit faster." – Brad Keselowski (sixth)
"At the start of the race, we didn't have a car capable of staying on the lead lap, much less finishing in the top five." – Aric Almirola (fourth)

Crucible - 29 Nov 2011
Within EVE's eternal crucible of warfare, politics and industry, even the most passionate and skilled are tested. EVE Online: CRUCIBLE pumps the bellows, turning up the heat on the space combat experience in EVE Online. In the factional shipyards, new ships have been forged to expand the reach of war and evolve the tactics of space engagement while existing vessels have been reimagined, bringing greater balance and diversity to large and small scale conflicts.
This winter, CRUCIBLE evolves the graphics, interface and game mechanics with dozens of updated and improved features based on feedback and challenges put forth by its players.
This is EVE re-forged.
Crucible 1.0 Features - 29 Nov 2011:
New Tier 3 Battlecruisers
Four new ships, forged from artwork created by our fans, introduce a powerful new rank to the battlecruiser class of starships. Pilots interested in heavier firepower without the expense of upgrading to battleship-class vessels will find the Tier 3 Battlecruisers a more than enjoyable option.
More info: Ship-troduction: The Minmatar Tornado, Ship-troduction: The Gallente Talos, Ship-troduction: The Amarr Oracle, Ship-troduction: The Caldari Naga

When five major roadwork projects are complete motorists will be able to move much more freely in and around
The projects — centered on U.S. 17, N.C. 24 and a few major roads between — have a total estimated cost of $113 million.
The project expected to be completed the soonest, the new Buddy Phillips Bridge is on track to be finished in July, said David Candela, a resident engineer with the N.C. Transportation Department in Jacksonville.
The replacement bridge and accompanying roadwork is estimated to cost $11 million. The project hit a snag last year when the contractor filed for bankruptcy, but has been running smoothly since a new contractor picked up the job earlier this year. The project was far enough ahead of schedule at the delay that it should finish on time, according to the NCDOT.
Once complete the widened structure will allow more motor vehicles to pass through town. The new bridge is also taller, allowing for larger ships to pass beneath it.
Scheduled next for completion is work on
For an estimated $13 million, the NCDOT is realigning
Two other projects are expected to be finished in 2014: the
The parkway, expected to be done in April 2014 at a estimated cost of $28 million, will stretch from the end of the Jacksonville Bypass on Marine Boulevard to Western Boulevard Extension where a new movie theater and several restaurants have popped up, Candela said.
That end of
The other 2014 project, expected to be finished in December of that year, is an interchange on N.C. 24 that will meet the new
The estimated $11 project will allow access to the new road under construction aboard base, which is part of a federal contract. The project will also see
Due to be finished in April 2016 for an estimated $50 million, the widening of
The 6.5-mile stretch of road from U.S. 17 to N.C. 24 will be a four-lane, divided highway with multiple signals and crossovers. Candela said the completed project will allow for safer travel with better mobility through the currently congested area.
"I was operating a 14-bay shop working seven days a week employing a much larger staff than I do today," Crom said.
He found out a little more than two years ago that his shop was in the path of the planned $50 million project to turn the winding road into a straight four-lane highway from N.C. 24 to U.S. 17.
"Knowing that the state was coming through we decided to move the business across the street onto land we already owned and reduced the workforce to my wife and three children," the 53-year-old said.
Crom said the widening project has not had any adverse effects on his business.
"We get as much work today as we did at the previous location," Crom said.
In addition to the five major projects the NCDOT is also repaving streets in the area and working on a traffic signal project to help with signal coordination throughout the city.

Ratings agency Moody's predicted Monday that the Obama administration would eventually approve TransCanada's application to build the controversial Keystone XL pipeline."But approval will not be quick," Moody's Investor Service said in a report on fallout from the US presidential election. "A prolonged permitting process risks missing the very oil price boom that inspired Keystone XL in the first place."Gulf Coast oil refiners and marketers stand to benefit from light/heavy crude price differentials as long as the project's permitting process and construction timeline lets TransCanada put the system into operation by 2015 or 2016, Moody's said.

Women's Soccer Blanked at UNC-Pembroke 2-0
September 22, 2010
Story Courtesy of UNCP Sports Information
PEMBROKE, N.C. Sophomore Anna Svensson and junior Rebecca Womack each scored first half goals for UNCP, and the Lady Braves held their opponent scoreless for the third-straight outing, to key a 2-0 victory over visiting Pfeiffer on Wednesday evening at Varsity Grounds. The shutout marked the fourth of the season for the Lady Braves who have yielded just three goals through seven contests. UNCP improves to 5-1-1 while the Lady Falcons dip to 3-4.
The Lady Braves took control of the match early when Faye Corbett assisted Svensson for a one-on-one situation in the box to bring the Lady Braves ahead of the Falcons just 13 minutes into the game. The second goal came off a stolen pass by Womack who dribbled the ball a short distance before cashing in on the hosts' second and final score of the outing.
UNCP outshot Pfeiffer 25-10 with Corbett posting a game-high five shots. Svensson and Sheena Mature added four shots apiece. Five different Lady Falcons each had a shot on goal. Pfeiffer goalkeeper Jamie Alcala allowed both goals but had seven saves on the night. UNCP's goalkeepers, Britney Bennett and Rea Segoviano, split time in goal and combined for five saves after the defense stopped any real scoring threat on the night.
Pfeiffer gets back to action on Saturday hosting Limestone at 12:00 p.m.

Choose Your Lights
Recessed light fixtures come in a wide range of types and styles and include standard incandescent, fluorescent, halogen, LED and other lamp (bulb) types. Decide how many fixtures you need, then shop around for the product that best meets your lighting goals (and budget).
If the ceiling is below an unheated attic, be sure to choose airtight, IC-rated fixtures. These can be covered with insulation and are sealed to prevent heated room air from escaping into the attic. Be aware that your electrician probably can buy your fixtures below retail cost, but he will likely add a markup that negates the discount (it's still preferable to have your electrician buy the fixtures).
