This heated mattress pad earned The Best rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it generated the most consistent warmth and was the most comfortable. The Best Heated Mattress Pad's temperature fluctuated by only 0.61° F across its entire surface over eight hours, proving to be the most consistent of any model tested. Panelists who slept on the mattress pads lauded The Best model's soft cushioning and virtually undetectable heating elements. Earning a perfect score for durability, The Best model did not shrink or fray after repeated machine washing. Dual LCD controls for the king and queen sizes allow two sleepers to set their own temperature preferences from 10 heat settings and the heating elements shut off automatically after 10 hours. For mattresses up to 18" deep.
"It's made the rest of the winter much more comfortable. The accuracy with which it maintains the chosen heating level is amazing. In my opinion, this mattress pad is far superior to even a good electric blanket." - S.U., New Jersey

really the best

I was surprised that the control is adjustable even between the numbers. I have already reccomended it to my co-workers to sleep toasty warm.
Perfect Nighttime Comfort
By Satisfied user

It's made the rest of the winter much more comfortable. The accuracy with which it maintains the chosen heating level is amazing. In my opinion, this mattress pad is far superior to even a good electric blanket.My one suggestion is that the cord between the control and the blanket bottom should be made longer so it can reach from the foot of the bed to a nightstand or other location at the head of the bed.
Great Product
By Nj
from Michigan
A gift for my husband who said it was the best gift ever! He said he sleeps through the night now - he loves it!! Highly recommend.
It's fantastic!
By Satisfied Sleeper
from Allentown, PA
It warms the bed so that sleeping in a cold room is really comfortable. I also noticed that it helps my back, with much less morning pain than I used to have. My husband loves it, too - he says it's the best Christmas present I've ever given him!
Everything I was hoping it would be.
By Mark
I bought this as a Christmas gift for my wife, because by morning I always end up with all the covers on my side of the bed. A mattress pad can't be pulled, so she will always have something to keep her warm. I ended up giving it to her two weeks before Christmas and we are both very glad that I did so. Might not seem like a romantic gift -- but what can be more romantic than a warm, inviting bed?

Ashley Rodrigue / Eyewitness News
Email: email@example.com | Twitter: @ashleyrwwl
AMITE, La. - A fear is echoing throughout Tangipahoa Parish tonight: is the river that runs through it flooding more often, higher and longer? And if so, why? People who live along the Tangipahoa River said, without a doubt, yes. But experts varied on their answers to those questions.
The Tangipahoa River runs 122 miles, mostly through Tangipahoa Parish. Hundreds of people call the banks of the waterway home and they love the river way of life. But since last fall, many people said that love has turned to loathing.
'In 2013 alone, our river has been high at least 40 days, so that's one-third of the time,' said river resident Tracy Shaff, 'It keeps getting worse after each storm, after each shower.'
Shaff lives along the Tangipahoa, near the bottom of the river, in the Ponchatoula area. But her concern mirrors the one Bruce Truebel shared with Eyewitness News in February at his property in Loranger, which is closer to the middle of the river.
Truebel said, 'It used to be that the river would crest within 36 hours, almost every flood, and start to recede. Now, in the January flood, it was 72 hours before it crested.'
For Truebel, the change in the river escalated after Hurricane Isaac in September. His property is now being eaten away in some places and buried in others. It's the exact same for Shaff and her neighbors farther south.
'You'll notice there's lots of erosion, a lot more sand since Isaac,' said Shaff, 'A lot of this sand was not here prior to Isaac.'
In addition to the land concern, there are plenty of water worries.
Shaff said, 'You can see that these people, they have water beneath their home and this is a very minor flood for us right now.'
Again, the same problem shared farther north.
Shaff said, 'When there is any hint of rain coming, we all become very anxious because we wonder okay how bad is this flood going to be.
She said it it never used to be that way.
At the National Weather Service in Slidell, river forecasters see the Tangipahoa situation differently, especially reviewing historical crest records, where the third worst was during Hurricane Isaac, but none afterward.
Hydrologist In Charge Suzanne Van Cooten said that when you consider the numbers from September to April, the data does not show that there has been anything out of the ordinary in regard to flooding.
But Biologist Chris Davis with the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries said different numbers tell him something's up.
He said, 'If you look at it since August of last year, which the beginning was the hurricane, we've had seven floods in that time. If you look at the past records, the previous five years, we only had ten.'
Those numbers come from the gauge at Robert. Compare that to gauges in Osyka, Mississippi, Kentwood and Amite, you find a similar pattern.
Davis said, 'I just think the last year, the last several months, the rain events, that's what's affected the river.'
Parish President Gordon Burgess agrees something has changed with the river, but gives a slightly different reason.
'One thing is because the dam in Mississippi,' said Burgess, 'The possible breach made more people more aware of what could happen. It didn't happen, but it could happen. And then with all the rainfall we've had.'
River residents in the south said it's more about the lack of maintenance on the waterway, which leaves downed trees blocking the flow and the path for boats. But the homeowners in the north have a theory of their own.
Truebel said, 'The problem again is Lake Tangipahoa. All that water from all that area that goes into the lake, now goes straight down the river.'
Lake Tangipahoa, and the dam separating it from the river, is what caused a mass evacuation and panic during Hurricane Isaac. It's found in Percy Quin State Park in McComb, Mississippi. Land slid in two places, sparking terror that the whole thing could buckle, but it didn't. Since then, the lake has been completely drained, and the dam closed off while the land around it is rebuilt stronger to prevent any scares in the future.
'When we have rain that comes through, the diversion canal takes it through its path instead of the normal spillway. It actually disperses it slower than the spillway would so the hydraulics show and do prove that for anything we're doing on the dam as far as construction to cause someone additional flooding that they weren't getting before is simply not the case,' said Mississippi State Parks Director Ramie Ford.
If you think there's a lot of unanswered questions as to whether there is anything wrong with the Tangipahoa River, and if so, what it could be, there are plenty more when it comes to finding a fix. Shaff believes all it will take is clearing out downed trees and debris. Since it's a scenic river, that's a job for the Army Corps of Engineers, but parish leadership backs the idea.
'If they can go in there and de-snag, I think they're going to see the river flooding slowing down some,' said Burgess.
Shaff said, 'You can't fight this river. There's no winning, so we need some help.'
For one expert, all of the answers are one in the same and simple: you have to live with it, it doesn't have to live with you, Davis said.
The Army Corps of Engineers has permission to clear out the river from the mouth to mile marker 53 in Amite. The agency says the project is on its 'to-do' list, but funding is not available. U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu's office said funding was made available to dredge the Tangipahoa in 2011, but the emergency flood on the Mississippi River used up the money. The Coast Guard, however, was recently able to secure FEMA money for a snagging project from the mouth of the river to the 11 mile marker north.

Erik Spiekermann's FF Meta is the foundation of the FontFont library, released at the label's inception and still a signature of the brand. Its ancestor – PT55 (1985) – was conceived for the West German Post Office as an economical typeface for use at small point sizes, but once FF Meta was released to the public it was used for nearly everything, quickly becoming one of the most popular typefaces of the computer era. It has been called the "Helvetica of the '90s" – not because the two typefaces have anything aesthetically in common – but because FF Meta fulfills so well the needs of modern communication. Oded Ezer designed a Hebrew version for Book and Bold.
FF Meta supports 168 different languages such as Spanish, English, Portuguese, Russian, German, French, Greek and Hebrew in Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, and Hebrew scripts. (Please note that not all languages are available for all formats.)

XMM in Testing
January 23, 2013
The XMM spacecraft standing upside down in the clean room at ESA's ESTEC facility. Its front end, where the mirror modules of the X-ray telescopes pass through the satellite's service module, is closest to the ground. At the top is the section containing detectors at the focus of the X-ray telescopes. Surmounting the assembly, a pair of cones will carry heat away from the detectors. XMM's appearance is, though, dominated by the long tube that spans the telescope's focal length, and by the black thermal blanket that will protect the spacecraft from unequal heating on the sunny and shaded sides.

WILLIAMSON - According to criminal complaints filed in Mingo County Magistrate Court, several arrests have been conducted within the county over the course of the past few days.
Matthew Thomas Sammons, 22, of Chattaroy, was placed under arrest by West Virginia State Police (WVSP) J.D. Matheny on chargers of burglary and grand larceny.
Trooper Matheny received testimony from a co-conspirator involved in a crime that said he had drove the defendant to a residence owned by Billy Sammons located on Lick Creek Road, with intentions of committing a robbery. Upon arrival, the defendant allegedly broke the rear glass door to gain entrance into the home and once inside, took numerous items including but not limited to, an assortment of jewelry, a compound bow, a video camera, a digital camera, an iPod and a Stihl brand chainsaw, with an overall estimated value of well over $1,000.
The trooper also interviewed an unnamed female that relayed on the same date as the robbery, Sammons attempted to sell her several pieces of women's jewelry. The officer also obtained a sworn statement from the co-conspirator that he had observed the defendant to have the compound bow stolen from the residence in his possession as he exited the home following the crime being committed.
Sammons was arraigned in Mingo County Magistrate Court and was remanded to the custody of the Southwestern Regional Jail at Holden on a $12,000 bond, where he remains held.
Matthew W. Meddings, 31, of Dunlow, was taken into custody by Kermit Police Chief C. Ernie Chambers and Mingo County Sheriff's (MCSD) Deputy E. Williams and was charged with DUS/DUI 1st offense.
A traffic stop was performed after the arresting officers noted an improper registration on a Ford Explorer. Upon requesting to see Medding's license, he informed them he did not have one. A records check was ran through the WV Department of Motor Vehicles which revealed the defendant's license had been suspended for a DUI conviction on 5-17-06.
Meddings was arraigned by Magistrate Dee Sidebottom and was released from custody after meeting the stipulations of his bail.
Cynthia (Dillon) Slone, 48, of Delbarton, was arrested by WVSP Trooper 1st Class J.K. Harris on charges of domestic assault, domestic battery and petit larceny after allegedly striking her daughter, Crystal Gail Lewis, in the face with first an open hand and then a closed fist, after the two became involved in a verbal argument while traveling in a vehicle.
The victim suffered, redness, swelling and a laceration to her lip as a result of the attack. The incident was witnessed by a third party that was also riding in the car at the time it occurred.
The victim and the witness jumped out of the vehicle when the defendant stopped, and left behind several of their personal belongings. The trooper recovered most of the items, minus a $20 money order belonging to the daughter.
Slone was arraigned by Magistrate Sidebottom, and was transported to jail on a $3,000 bond.
Brenda Lee Fouch, 25, of Liberty Heights in Williamson, was arrested and charged with computer fraud and obtaining money under false pretenses by MCSD Chief Field Deputy Joe Smith and Deputy Stephen Smith, after she allegedly applied via the internet for a credit card in the names of Pierce and Kathe Whitt without their permission or consent. The defendant allegedly charged a total of $767 worth of merchandise and had the items shipped to her Liberty Heights residence before the crime was detected.

Herbert Leo Blevins, 31, of the Cantrell Apartments in W. Williamson, was arrested by Williamson Police Department Lt. G.P. Dotson and Patrolmen J.L. Marcum and J.D.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Invitations & RSVPs
I asked for sample products of invitations even asking for a specific style so I could better visualize. They sent me exactly what I wanted and I fell in love with one specific pocket invitation style and the linen paper. I was not fully able to personalize everything I had wanted on my invitation/RSVPs (the main background and more specific paragraph spacing) BUT I typed what I wanted into the notes section and the person working on the proofs created exactly what I asked and continued working with me until I was satisfied with what I was getting. They were sent quickly and were just as fabulous as I had hoped. RSVP post cards were printed on very sturdy paper and the quality of everything was great. I would recommend magnet street. I had also gotten my save the dates from here too...LOVE!
Beautiful Invitations
I had read lots of reviews about Magnet Street's amazing Save the Dates. However, I was surprised at the level of customization available with all their wedding stationary. I ordered a JustOne to match our STD's and was extremely pleased with the quality of the paper and the depth of color. When our full order arrived, I couldn't have been happier! Magnet Street's full color and text customization is an incredible value. The size and accessory options are unmatched with other invite vendors I've looked into (especially at this price point!).Not only that, I've had guests comment that it was the most beautiful invitation they have ever received! Thanks Magnet Street!!!!
Great Quality Labels
These labels came out great! They are a little bigger than I thought they would be, but they look so nice and the quality is great! I definitely recommend adding these to your order, worth the $20!
The Epitome of Personalized Care
I am so grateful to my daughter and her fiance for selecting Magnet Street as their provider of wedding invitations. The design is smart, classy and innovative, the quality is superb, and the selection is vast. However, none of these superlatives can describe the incredible customer service. You call the 800 number and you get a live person, with a warm voice and gentle hand in helping you work through the process. For every Mother of the Bride and Bride to Be, this is the best place by far to get your invitations and that all important guiding hand. Thank you Magnet Street !!
I designed our invitations in this style using the celery color as the main and I believe flamingo as the accent. Our wedding is following a sort of vintage garden theme and these were perfect! All of the RSVP cards, envelopes, and guest information cards fit perfectly in the little pocket, and made them incredibly easy to address and send out! The colors were vivid but not loud, just how we'd hoped. I also want to say that working with MagnetStreet was so easy. I found out AFTER making my guest information cards that the link I put on the cards taking guests to our wedding website was actually not searchable, and I needed to purchase a domain. Once I purchased the domain, it changed the link I should have provided. I contacted magnet street in a panic that all of the links would be incorrect, and they emailed me back within HOURS saying they would go ahead and change it for me. Later that day they sent me an email to look at the proofs. They also made and got the invitations to me so quickly! I can't recommend the quality and customer service at MagnetStreet enough!

WILLIAMSON - Surrounded by family, friends, fellow police officers and the public, James Smith took the oath of office Tuesday morning inside the County Commission courtroom, and is now officially the new Sheriff on Mingo County. Commissioner Greg "Hootie" Smith administered the oath.
Smith, a 17 year-old law enforcement veteran, voiced his appreciation to everyone who supported him, had faith in his abilities and wanted to see him take the lead in the Sheriff's department, and said that he is excited about this opportunity that he has been given.
"I know that our department has been through a lot in the past few months but I truly feel that we can overcome any obstacles in our path and come together in a unified manner and do what is right for the residents of this county."
"I'm blessed to work with a bunch of great guys who are seasoned officers and they're committed to serving the public. They have the knowledge and the abilities that are needed to do this job the right way and I feel confident that each and every one of them will give this job their all."
The Sheriff thanked his family for their love and support and to the commission for choosing him to fill the position that was left vacant after the death of former Sheriff Eugene Crum, and that was held for a short period of time by his widow, Rosie Crum.
"We've got a lot of work to do, but I know we will succeed," stated Smith.
"My door is always open and I welcome the public to stop by to meet me. We want to hear from you. Your concerns are our concerns; that is what we were hired to do."
If you would like to contact Sheriff Smith or his Chief Filed Deputy, Joe Smith or another member of their department, you are asked to call 304-235-0300.

- Year Introduced: 1967
- Recommended Use: evening
No reviews written for this product
I have been wearing Miss Balmain since 1975, We lived in London three years in the mid-to-late 1970's; I was introduced to it then. An English friend continued sending it to me after we moved back to the States via mutual co-workers. Through the years, I've received many, many compliments on the fragrance and sincerely hope that the House of Balmain will continue to produce and distribute it to the U.S. and to FragranceNet.

I began wearing this scent when I went from a small town to a big city when I went away to college in the 60's. I only ceased wearing it when I was unable to find it any longer here in the states (clearly I was unfamiliar with this website.) Years later when my mother-in law went on her first trip abroad, I asked her to look for it. She brought it home to me, but I only used it sparingly as I only had the one bottle. You can't imagine how thrilled I am to have found it again - even if it is out of stock right now. I will grab it when it comes back into stock!! Thank you so much!!!

I fell in love with Miss Balmain since the first time I smelled it...elegant, sophisticated, and yet a stong statement for every woman who dares to wear it. I have many good memories that the scent of MB brings back every time I wear it.....sigh!

I found this perfume when I worked in Paris. One of my co workers was wearing it and I asked her what it was. I have been wearing it since the late eighties. Please keep it stocked. I wear it every day!

Miss Balmain., Perfect Perfume. When I wear it always they ask me the the frangrance is wonderfull. Very feminine. I cannot find it in Europe anywhere. I am worried when it will stop to come out what I will do. Whith what I will compare it. Only the Chanel ''19'' it looks some familiar with the Miss Balmain.

Scott Weiland Biography & News
Scott Weiland Details
|Official site
About Scott Weiland
Scott Weiland Tickets - A Frontman to Represent All FrontmenGrunge was a wonderful era in music and saw the birth of many frontmen -- John Popper, Eddie Vedder, Kurt Cobain, and even better...Scott Weiland! Born October 28, 1967, in Santa Cruz, California, this singer achieved immortal status when he debuted with the true-blue grunge hard rock band Stone Temple Pilots. The band became one of the biggest acts in the '90s. However, things weren't always perfect, leaving the lead singer strung out on a heroin addiction and also leaving the Pilots on hold for quite awhile.
Scott Weiland Tickets - The Music of WeilandThat didn't stop Weiland, though; he went back on the scene, fighting his addiction, and going solo in 1998 to record the album 12 Bar Blues. Numerous dramas in his career ensued, following a short yet successful stint with the supergroup Velvet Revolver, and then a reunion with the Pilots -- and then, finally, a re-entrance into the solo artist arena with another album entitled Galoshes with the defining single 'Happy' under his belt. It proved that although hardship could hit Weiland, he'd still kick it both on stage and in the studio.
Scott Weiland Tickets - The Sound and Style of WeilandIsn't it obvious just how powerful Weiland is on stage? The quintessential frontman of a rock band. You'd see him with that grunge hard rock look, featuring a small edge of punk style into it with all the tattoos, skinny Iggy Pop body, and an edgy voice that could tear into your soul. He knew how to rock a stage, sometimes with a megaphone, but mostly with his heart for hard rock music.

The Vikings' 33 percent shooting from the field couldn't even spoil a 27-point cinch over visiting West Craven Friday.
Kinston remained undefeated to start the seasonJ as it breezed 61-38 over the Eagles at Vikings Gym.
"We weren't the most efficient team, but we kept grinding," Kinston coach Perry Tyndall said. "I think it's a sign of a tough team."
Junior forward Brandon Ingram and senior guard Andrew Lopez were the only two Vikings to score in double figures and combined for 42 points. It was a test against the foul line for Ingram in the first half, as he visited it six times and hit six of his 11 total shots.
Ingram, one of the state's top high school recruits, completed a few appealing plays in jamming passes through the net on a pair of alley-oop dunks and driving to find easy layups to widen the scoring gap. He had a game-high 25, as Lopez scored 17 — hitting three from behind the arc. He drained 3-of-8 3-pointers.
"We can't continue bad habits in the long haul," Tyndall said. "Overall, we did a lot of good things … but we've got to give the all-out effort. We can't have two good possessions and then two bad ones; we've got to get more consistent."
But business was about usual for the 3-0Kinston team, where each Viking managed to contribute.
Senior Darnell Dunn had six quick rebounds in the first half.
His brother Darius Dunn, a sophomore, led-all with four assists, including a couple of big feeds toward the end of each half.
The pair was one part of a durable Kinston machine thathelped elevate the Vikings to a 31-19 halftime-lead.
West Craven's Tyrone Brown opened the second-half scoring with a fast-break bucket, but it was answered by a drive from Ingram — a depiction of how the remainder of the game would turn out.
While the Eagles made notable plays, such baskets couldn't power up their production. When Anthony Oates hit a jumper at the third-quarter buzzer, WC was already down 13 and would not recover.
As Alkeim Harley led his team with 13 points, it didn't change the fact the Vikings held the Eagles to 22 total points in the second half.
"Kinston's got great pressure, so they knocked us around a little bit," West Craven coach Charles Harris said. "We're really young, and these kids have been practicing this (new) system for a month."
WC will look to rebound against New Bern Wednesday, as Kinston travels to Wilson Hunt.
The Vikings will not be back in their gym until 2014, when they host Eastern Wayne. Kinston was supposed to play at Eastern Wayne Monday, but the game has been rescheduled to Jan. 29.

Comments about Delta Aztec MTB Brake Pads:
I needed pads for my hybrid with Shimano C910 cantilever brakes. I bought these from a different retailer though. It seems they don't stop well AND I have cantilever brake levers so it should have been able to stop. Sorry, but these don't seem to be the bargain you're looking at.
Comments about Delta Aztec MTB Brake Pads:
Great product, highly recommend these to any rider of almost any style. Just not DH you should be using disk brakes hands down. Reason for that is disk brakes have much more stopping power, but if you do get disks, make sure there high quality. If not get these. served me well in winter, summer, rain, sleet, sun, snow.... everything, there were no problems till i started pushing how worn down they were getting.

Cartier Must de Cartier pour Homme Essence (2000) Spicy Oriental
Notes: Grapefruit, Anise, Cinnamon, Ginger, Cedar, Vetiver, Patchouli
A spice-laden juice that has more of the oriental or aromatic fougère about it than any other genre (because of the tonka bean in the base, I guess).The top is largely citrus with a good dose of anise, the heart a warm and unusual accord of cinnamon and ginger, and in the base quite a pronounced woody air with sandalwood, cedarwood, vetiver, and patchouli. Except for the absence of floral notes, the Essence version of Must pour Homme seems recall the feminine version rather than the other masculine offering. This strikes me as a cool-to-cold weather scent, primarily because of the hearty spice accords, and at the same time it seems to suggest an evening or slightly more formal context than the plain Must pour Homme. The longevity and sillage are fairly tenacious, and the development, while somewhat limited, does tend to play out to a woodier place than where it starts. I find this very pleasant, a bit bracing and energizing, and an overall good thing. Kudos to Cartier for this!

I've sampled Jacques Fath green water today. I've sampled this in the past and gave it a miss for some reason, but I've found it lovely today. There are similarities with other mint fragrances that have bergamot, orange, lemon, herbs notes etc but I've added this to my list to either buy a bottle of in the near future, or certainly get hold of a decant. It's no Selection Verte, but it's a damn site cheaper.

Two former Teamsters officials are the targets of a federal grand jury investigation and are expected to be indicted for embezzlement soon, according to court records.
The indictments of the former officials, Fred Correll and Ryan Sherard, were considered so imminent that attorneys for the men and the Teamsters agreed last month to indefinitely postpone a civil trial that had been scheduled to begin on April 2.
The Teamsters are suing the two men in Orange County Superior Court for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment and racketeering. Correll, 78, and Sherard, 42, are former secretary-treasurer and president, respectively, of Teamsters District Council 2, a Fullerton-based group that represents 8,800 workers in printing and paper trades.
The lawsuit alleges the pair lived high on union members' dues, charging hundreds of thousands of dollars for everything from expensive hotel stays to Barbie accessories.
Correll and Sherard, both of Fullerton, have denied the claims and have cross-complained for loss of severance and vacation pay. They resigned their posts in March 2011 following an investigation by the international union that Correll likened to "a kangaroo court."
Correll and Sherard were identified as targets of a federal grand jury investigating "embezzlement and other crimes," according to a April 19, 2012, letter in the court file from Assistant U.S. Attorney Charles E. Pell to an attorney for Sherard.
In that letter, Pell asked for Sherard's cooperation against Correll – his father-in-law. It's unknown if Sherard took the offer. Sherard's current attorney did not return a phone call seeking comment for this story.
Correll's attorney, Mark Treadwell, said he had heard about the investigation but did not know if there was any new information.
Thom Mrozek, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's Office, declined to comment. The office customarily does not comment on investigations.
Union attorney Raquel A. Ortega said in a Feb. 22 court declaration that, based on conversations with a U.S. Labor Department investigator, she believes Correll's and Sherard's "arrest and indictment is imminent."
Teamsters District Council 2 represents workers in California and seven other Western states, mostly in printing and graphics but also in other industries such as tomato processing. Like many unions, its membership has been on the decline, down nearly 14 percent in the past decade, according to its annual federal report.
It also has been financially troubled. For five of the past 10 years it has run a deficit.
Top-paid workers represented by the union earn about $18 to $20 per hour, according to former district council vice president David Grabhorn. He and his wife, Ramona Soto, were forced out in 2010 and sued by the Teamsters that year. They and the union reached a confidential settlement last October.
Correll was District 2's secretary-treasurer, its top official, for nearly 40 years beginning in 1972. He earned $204,472 in 2010 and $54,633 before resigning in 2011.
Sherard as the district's president earned $167,105 in 2010 and $46,474 in 2011.

This summer, the Governor of New Jersey vetoed an ASPCA-backed bill to ban the use of gestation crates. Gestation crates are small cages (about 2' × 7') industrialized farms use for confining pregnant pigs.
We were very disappointed by Governor Christie's veto, but we were also shocked. It doesn't often happen that 91% of a state's residents and an overwhelming majority of a state's legislators—Democrats and Republicans alike—agree on anything. But in New Jersey, the plight of pregnant pigs gave rise to an overwhelming consensus that no animal should be confined in this intolerably cruel manner.
Thankfully, there is still an opportunity to pass the bill to ban gestation crates: State Senator Raymond Lesniak is spearheading an effort to override the governor's veto.
The override effort has been endorsed by New Jersey's leading animal protection groups, national groups, industry experts, and major New Jersey news outlets. Press of Atlantic City called gestation crates "the very definition of cruelty." Banning them, in the words of the Star-Ledger, is "basic decency." The Times of Trenton asked us to "imagine the outcry if dogs and cats were subjected to such treatment."
If you live in New Jersey, please join us in calling on your state legislators to stand by their principles and override the veto. Visit the ASPCA Advocacy Center today to be a voice for New Jersey's pigs.
I would like to know if anyone knows a farmer in new jersey that uses these crates? I raise pigs and if I had a crate it would be a lifesaver, since the sows lay on their young and kill them. A crate reduces the death rate of young piglets. PLus a sow after giving birth usually does not move very much if at all for three days. If you want to protect an animal, you should try raising pigs first and know what the hell you are talking about.!!
Three days in a crate is not the same as a lifetime in crate. I have great respect for our farmers. They are decent, hard-working people who usually care a great deal for the animals; but the sarcastic tone and mean spirit of Debra's email is a turn off.
Hi Debra,
Thank you for your comment but this bill wouldn't ban farrowing crates, which is used to separate piglets from their mother. Gestation crates confine mother pigs while pregnant, hence the word "gestation" in gestation crate. Sad to see farmers like yourself back Big Ag when they're actively trying to put people like you out of business.
hey after you have been in a crate for a while lets see how you feel.
Please NJ - come out in droves to vote this bully of animals and people out of office
All power to State Senator Lesniak to override the insensitivity of the Governor's veto, how sad for all the animals in this man's state.
Gestation crates are cruel and inhumane. This is wrong. Why are humans so insensitive when it comes to farm animals.

Self-contained systems can be used for digesters, landfills and coal mines.
Martin Machinery, Latham, Mo., has been designing and building electric power generator systems since the 1980s. The generators burn the waste gases to make electricity. The company's first customers owned farm digesters. Today, in addition to farmers, landfills and coal mines use the generators to produce power from the methane gas they generate. As the company moved into manufacturing generators for industries such as these, it realized that its customers were interested in a stream-lined design.
Martin Machinery's Harlan Martin explains that the early generators units were shipped as skid mounted units with radiators and switch gears shipped separately. Radiators were mounted outside the building, and the switch gear used to lock the generator unit to the electrical utility was often in a separate temperature-controlled room.
"These units are designed parallel to the electric utility," he says. "This allows for the benefit of the stability of the utility and allows selling power back to the utility."
More recently Martin says, end users prefer units installed in "walk-in" type enclosures. "This has become rather popular with customers, because of it being more like a 'plug in play' system, and thereby reducing the labor at the job site." He adds that the units allow for more rapid depreciation than a "site build" building and offers better resale value due to it being a self-contained system.
Martin Machinery's electric power generator systems vary in sizes from 40 kilowatts (KW) to 1300 KW. For more information, call 800-436-9190800-436-9190 or email email@example.com.

Comments about Easton Haven Carbon UST 29" Wheel 2012:
These wheels took 1.8 lbs off my bike! Expensive, but at this price not much more than a high-end set of aluminum wheels.
Sealed rim bed is nice. Not a big selecton of UST tires, but the rims have been very easy to use with tubless-ready tires from Specialized, Continental and Schwalbe so far.
I read about some concerns over issues with the rear hub bearings wearing out quickly. The rear wheel I received had the M1-121 hub and the box was marked with a green sticker indicating the bearing spacer fix had already been installed. After six months, I noticed some notchiness in the bearings when I had the wheel off the bike. Easton should have included a 20mm cone wrench for preload adjustment in the box.

Comments about Easton Haven Carbon UST 29" Wheel 2012:
No worries about past hub issues, the rear wheel came with the bearing upgrade installed. The carbon wheel takes the "sting" out of riding a rigid 29er yet is still stiffer than an aluminum wheel.
Light weight really helps with instant acceleration, feels like a 26" when you put the hammer down.
An easy way to loose a pound or two off of your bike!

A window on profitability
As a successful carwash or detailing business owner you probably have already developed an
Offering and marketing additional services to customers greatly increases your profits and significantly enhances customer loyalty.
Window tinting, windshield chip and crack repair and hydrophobic windshield treatments are three simple, profitable services that can be very profitable to your bottom line.
Getting started
The quality of each additional service added will reflect the reputation of your underlying primary business, thus quality must be as high or superior to any competitor.
There are a few steps to take when adding additional services to your detail shop:
· Determine your goals;
· Find an ancillary service that best meets your goals;
· Consider your personal climate and location, as well as your customers' needs.
Making your services profitable
In order to maintain customer loyalty and satisfaction for your primary services, additional services must be profitable to you — the detail shop owner. When determining profitability detailers must consider the following:
• Costs of labor;
• Costs of equipment;
• Costs of recurring consumable; and
• Advertising costs.
The following tips outline what you will need to get started with window tinting, windshield chip and crack repair and hydrophobic windshield treatments:
Windshield repair
After all the air in windshield chips is completely evacuated, a high-quality resin is injected into the void created by the vacuum process. Therefore, quality equipment and resin are essential to producing a proper windshield repair.
Two types of systems for windshield repair include:
· Syringe-type systems - are most common and generally cheaper.
· Machine-based vacuum/pressure systems - generally create a stronger vacuum and have a means to gauge pressure.
Equipment manufacturers vary from one-man shows to national companies, so do your homework and check references, years in business, equipment warranties, etc. before settling on a system.
Windshield chip and crack repair technicians require some initial training. Like most skilled services, practice and experience will greatly enhance the quality of the repair and the efficiency of the technician.
Windshield repairs normally cost about $60 per repair billed through a customers' insurance. Wholesale or cash customers may pay anywhere between $35 and $40.
Repair costs for the detailer range from $600 and $3,000. The cost of training usually costs the detailer nothing because it is generally included with the equipment purchase.
Window tinting
Window tinting is most easily marketed in spring and summer months or in sunny, warm climates.
This service will probably require some scheduling because of the time involved in the process.
Equipment set-up costs are relatively close to windshield chip and crack repair, but the labor costs are high.
The installer's skill level is the most important factor in determining the quality of the finished product. An experienced tinter is a precious commodity, so if you find one, it's a good idea to pay him or her well.
Detailers can normally charge between $100 and $300 for window tinting, depending on the model of the automobile and how many windows are to be tinted. Some vehicles are more difficult to tint and therefore will allow for higher fees.
This service costs the detailer anywhere between $300 and $10,000, as the computerized film cutting is optional. Training normally costs about $1,000.
Hydrophobic windshield treatment
Hydrophobic windshield treatment — like windshield repair — can be a recurring business revenue stream. It can offer a profitable return for little or no investment and requires little training to successfully apply. This type of service usually costs customers between $15 and $30.
Detailers normally pay about $50 to provide this service but pay nothing to train employees.
Hydrophobic window treatments are essentially transparent polymers that fill the microscopic pores on the surface of the glass. These microscopic molecules force rain, snow and other particles to bead up and roll off the window, keeping the window clear.
Hydrophobic treatment and windshield repair are not compatible because the microscopic molecules in the windshield treatment create a barrier that prevents windshield repair resin from properly filling and bonding.
Kerry Wanstrath is chief operating officer of Glass Technology Inc., Durango, CO, a manufacturer of windshield repair systems specifically designed for carwashes and detailers.

A bonus that was given to New Bern City Manager Mike Epperson during a Saturday retreat with the Board of Aldermen on Feb. 16 that caused heated discussion Tuesday night at the board's public meeting might no longer be an issue.
Epperson called the Sun Journal Wednesday morning and said he was declining the $30,000 bonus the board agreed to pay him over three years.
"I don't want it to become a distraction to all we have tried to accomplish," Epperson said. "It's not about the money. It's never been about the money."
Epperson issued a statement Wednesday to the mayor and Board of Aldermen on his decision to decline the offer, saying he would "respectfully decline the board's offer of an annual bonus," and that he had never asked for one.
"I certainly did not (and would not) try to leverage receiving a bonus against looking at other employment opportunities," he said in the statement.
But before he declined the offer, the issue stirred heated arguments Tuesday night between aldermen over how the bonus was offered and why it was considered and approved at a Saturday retreat where only one citizen attended.
Alderman Dana Outlaw tried repeatedly to ask questions about the minutes of the retreat and why the bonus was approved without the city attorney or clerk present.
But Mayor Lee Bettis refused to allow Outlaw's argument, saying he was not on the agenda and he was campaigning for the upcoming election. He said Outlaw would have to wait until the concerns of the aldermen portion of the meeting, but even then he would not allow him to ask questions.
At one point, Outlaw told Bettis he was out of order, and Bettis said Outlaw was out of order.
Bettis read the minutes, taken from notes made by Alderman Sabrina Bengel and Epperson at the retreat, which said Bengel made the motion during the retreat to approve an amendment to the city manager's employment agreement that was seconded by Alderman Denny Bucher. The motion carried unanimously.
At the board's request, the agreement was placed on the agenda for Tuesday's regular meeting to inform the public and provide a copy of the amendment.
The Sun Journal was told after the Feb. 16 retreat meeting the bonus was not formally approved because it was more of a work and planning session, and the details, like the amount of the bonus, would be brought up at the next regular session.
Alderman Bernard White said he did vote for the bonus, but thought it would be voted on again Tuesday night.
Alderman Johnnie Ray Kinsey said he felt the board made an "executive decision" voting for the city manager's bonus because it would cost more to find someone to replace him if he left New Bern.
Kinsey said the board needs to be more professional and "not shut one another down" during public meetings because they are being held accountable for everything they do, apparently alluding to Bettis and Outlaw.
"If we feel we have a problem, we need to go into closed session, not air our laundry out to the public," he said, drawing a few groans from the public.
Kinsey said he believed they were going to vote on the bonus Tuesday, but something changed.
"We just need to tell the truth to the public," he said. "That's all they want to know. What are you trying to prove? What are you trying to hide? I'm not trying to hide anything. I don't have anything to hide."
Kinsey said they should apologize to the public, and the mayor quickly moved on to Bucher.
"My recollection isn't important of what happened," Bucher said. "My point is I felt a week ago Saturday, and I feel tonight, that my vote is yes and I stand by that. Whether it was an official vote or wasn't an official vote, my vote was yes and my vote is yes. The reason for that is the public has no clue, I don't think, of what we went through three years ago in the recruiting process to bring a city manager to this city."
Bucher said he thought Epperson has done a "spectacular job" and his goal was to keep him here. Giving bonuses is not uncommon either in business or in government, he said.
Alderman Victor Taylor said he did not agree with the vote. Because there was no city clerk or city attorney at the retreat meeting, he said, he was under the impression that the vote was unofficial and it would be brought up before the public for an official vote.
Taylor said the mayor signed the minutes sometime after the retreat meeting.
"We did not know anything about it being signed," he said.
At first, Taylor said he agreed with the bonus, but Tuesday night, he did not.
"So my answer today would be no," he said.
Bengel said she would never agree to anything dishonest. She said the aldermen discussed the bonus and voted on it.
Bengel said she turned to Outlaw after the vote and they discussed how it should be done again in regular session so it didn't look like the same incident years ago when the former board met on a Saturday and voted to give themselves health insurance for life.
At times, Bengel was a little emotional when she talked about Epperson and the board's decision.
"He's a leader," she said. "He has brought in a wonderful team. I stand behind him. I'm putting my reputation on the line. …I have never thrown anyone under the bus and I'm not throwing Mr. Epperson under the bus because he has done an excellent job."
Bengel said the board was not focusing on the city manager but the entire city, saying pay raises and opportunities were coming to reward city employees for doing a good job.
"I'm not ashamed of what I've done," she said. "I'll stand behind what I did. I don't care if he was looking at a job in Florida. Thank God he is going to stay with us because I think it is to our best benefit."
According to the Nov. 13 minutes of the city council of Melbourne, Fla., Epperson was one of 11 people being considered for a position there as city manager. He was not chosen as one of the five finalists.
Bengel started to make a motion to vote on the bonus again and Outlaw seconded it, but Bettis interrupted, saying she could not make a motion because it was not on the agenda.
"I think we misunderstood the process," she said. "And I apologize if we did. But I'm not going to back down because my word is my bond. I did something and shame on me…. Shame on all of us. But we did it. We all stood there and said yes. If you didn't know the information beforehand, shame on you."
Bengel said she stands by her vote.
She also said she never wanted to attend another meeting without an attorney present. The city attorney was also not at the Tuesday meeting.
"I will never throw anyone under the bus, period," she said.
Bettis said everything concerning the retreat was lawful. There was notification and it was a public meeting.
Epperson told the board he appreciated the offer Tuesday night and was unaware of any prior discussion about it. But he declined the offer Wednesday morning after the uproar.
