[Verse 1]
I thought I saw you yesterday
But I didn't stop cause you was walking the opposite way
I guess I could have shouted out your name
But even if it was you I don't what I would say
We can sit and reminisce about the old school
Maybe share a cigarette because we both fools
Chop it up and compare perspectives
Life, Love, Stress, and Setbacks
Yes, You could tell me how hard you had it
And you could show me all the scars to back it
And we can analyze each complaint
Break it down and explain these mistakes I make
I like to tangle up the strings of the puppetry
But you knew me back when I was a younger me
You've seen Sean in all types of light
And I've been meaning to ask you if I'm doing alright
[Hook x2]
Yesterday, was that you?
Looked just like you
Strange things my imagination might do
Take a breath, reflect on what we've been through
Or am I just going crazy cause I miss you?
[Verse 2]
I'm shook. I know
I pushed when I should have pulled
Took it all back if I could, I put that on my soul
And I would make a top notch good listener
If you could block off a little time out to give it here
Since we went our separate paths
I've hit a couple of snags
That remind me of the past
I can't front I'm having a blast
But damned if I ain't afraid of how long it's gonna last
Sitting here wishing we could kick it
Give me your opinions I do miss the criticisms
I didn't mean to be distant
Make a visit
I'll wait up and keep the coffee brewing in the kitchen
But who am I jokin' with?
Theres no way that you and I will ever get to re-open it
It doesn't matter this is more than love
And maybe if I'm lucky, get to see you out the corner of yesterday
[Hook x2]
[Verse 3]
And when you left I didn't see it coming
I guess I slept it ain't like you was running
You crept out the front door slow
And I was so self-absorbed I didn't even know
And by the the time I looked up, it was booked up
Put it all behind you, the bad and the good stuff
A whole house full of dreams and steps
I think you'd be impressed with the pieces I kept
You disappeared but the history is still here
That's why I try not to cry over spilt beer
I can't even get mad that you're gone
Leaving me was probably the best thing you ever taught me
I'm sorry, it's official
I was a fistful
I didn't keep it simple
Chip on the shoulder, anger in my veins
Had so much hatred now it brings me shame
Never thought about the world with out you
And I promise that I'll never say another bad word about you
I thought I saw you yesterday
But I know it wasn't you, cause you passed away, Dad

Private Equity Firm Buys K+S Home and Garden Business
9:41 AM MDT | June 24, 2011 | —IAN YOUNG
K+S Group (Kassel, Germany) has agreed to sell its Compo home and garden products business to private equity firm Triton (Frankfurt). The deal has an enterprise value of €205 million ($293 million) and K+S expects a cash inflow, after the deduction of assumed liabilities, of about €150 million. The deal is expected to close this summer and it will be retroactive to March 1, 2011. K+S announced in mid-2010 that it was considering plans to divest Compo as part of a strategy to focus on potash and magnesium products, and on the company's salt business. The...

Villanueva stays unbeaten as Blue Jays top Tigers
TORONTO With a few waves of his magic wand, Carlos Villanueva earned the win against the Detroit Tigers.
Villanueva won his fourth straight start, Travis Snider hit a two-run home run and the Toronto Blue Jays beat Detroit 8-3 on Friday night.
It wasn't easy for Villanueva, who gave up two solo homers in the first inning and needed a double play to get out of a jam in the third. But by surviving long enough to win, Villanueva got some praise from bench coach Don Wakamatsu.
"Wakamatsu said it best: `It felt like a magician out there today, pulling all the tricks out,'" Villanueva said. "I know some starts are going to be that way, probably more than I want to during the course of a season, but it worked."
Jeff Mathis drove in three runs with a bases-loaded double and Omar Vizquel had two hits as Toronto won for the fifth time in seven games.
"Carlos pitched a great game, everybody contributed," Vizquel said. "Mathis got the big shot that got everybody home and we got something going there. The rest was up to the bullpen, who did a great job."
Villanueva (6-0) saw both Cabrera and Fielder take him deep over a three-pitch span in the first inning, but didn't give up another run after that. Unbeaten in five starts since joining Toronto's rotation after 22 relief appearances, the right-hander allowed four hits in five innings, walked two and struck out three.
"We felt like we had a shot at him, we just didn't do anything," Tigers manager Jim Leyland said.
Even if he needs some magic from time to time, Blue Jays manager John Farrell said Villanueva has done a good job of keeping the Blue Jays close in all of his outings as a starter, never allowing more than three runs.
"What he has shown repeatedly is that he is going to keep the game under control," Farrell said. "He sets the tone, he throws strikes and is capable of making the key pitch in tough situations."
Detroit's Quintin Berry credited Villanueva for mixing well after the shaky first.
"Everybody knows he's got many pitches he can throw and he was throwing them all," Berry said. "We were doing a good job of trying to wait him out but he's got good stuff."
Aaron Loup worked 1 1-3 innings, Brandon Lyon got two outs, Darren Oliver gave up Fielder's RBI single in the eighth and Casey Janssen finished.
Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder hit back-to-back homers for Detroit but the Tigers lost for the third time in four games.
"We haven't swung the bats good the last few days," Leyland said. "We didn't swing the bats good in Cleveland and we didn't swing the bats good again here tonight."
Cabrera's homer was his 25th, and raised his major league-leading RBI total to 83. For Fielder, the homer was his 16th.
Detroit has won nine of 14 since the All-Star break but is just 3-4 away from home in that time.

How do you break a bad emotional or behavioral pattern?
I was wondering what do you think are good methods for breaking out of bad habits, behavioral and emotional patterns? What I mean by behavioral... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
What works best for me, is to first find out where things go wrong (eg why and under which circumstances you have your 'weak moments' etc.) Then I picture myself as the person I would be if I succeed in changing whatever the problem is. Take your time in this phase, it's really important to have a clear view of your goal!
Then I like to set a date for the start of the 'changing process', and if possible a kind of 'deadline' to live towards as well! Another tip that works really well for me: I like to make my decision on forehand, so that you can simply stick to that instead of having to think about it at crucial moments, increasing the risk of making the bad 'weak' choice! Hope this helps you a little bit ;)
Thanks for your answer :)
What Girls Said 3
I just did this lol, you have to really stand back and look at what's going on around you and then see where or how you fit into this behavior. the subtract your self or the variables out and see your self for what you are then see if this is something you really want to change. If so you will not forgot what you have learned or seen and it will stick with you. It can be very difficult process but if it is worth it, it will be for the best. best of luck.
Thanks for your answer :)

Non-Profit Offers Subscription Box Service to Promote Charitable Donations
Kindred Box Offers New Approach to Charitable Giving With Subscription Box Service
Orlando, FL (PRWEB) October 28, 2013
A new non-profit aims to change the way donations are made. The organization, Kindred Box, acts as a subscription service that would aggregate donations and give them to a different charity each month.
In exchange, participants receive a box with a handwritten thank you note and information on the impact their donation has generated. All donations are tax deductible.
According to founder Tim Parkin, the purpose of Kindred Box is to help people discover new and worthy charities to give toward.
"Kindred Box brings clarity and accountability to donating to charity," Parkin said. "It was started on the idea that non-profit organizations should be transparent about how and where your donations are being used, and that how much, or how often, you give should be up to you."
Kindred Box also prevents users from future solicitations. Acting as the middle man, the organization does not give donors' contact information to the charity being sponsored.
"Solicitations are one of the necessary evils of non-profits," Parkin said. "Funding is required and it makes the most sense to ask those people who have already given money to give again. We think donors shouldn't be pestered with giving more, especially when there is still a lack of transparency."
Kindred Box is not currently active yet and is on IndieGoGo, a crowdfunding website. The IndieGoGo campaign for the organization ends November 26.

Study: Genetic tests do little to change habits
Pathway stopped selling its test directly to consumers online in May and canceled plans to offer test kits in Walgreens drugstores after the FDA said the products should be regulated and a congressional committee questioned their value outside of medical consultations.
Since then, people requesting a test through Pathway's website must provide contact information for their primary care physician. Tests are delivered to consumers only after their doctors approve the order.
"It was the responsible thing to do," said Chris d'Eon, marketing vice president for the company. "It's not just about selling a bunch of genetic tests. It's about making sure the people who get the tests use that information to improve their lives.
"If we do that, our business will grow," he said.
Researchers also found that anxiety levels among participants were no higher after they received their results than they were before taking the tests, which countered some predictions that people might experience undue stress by misinterpreting test results on their own.
"It's very reassuring that consumers can handle this," Topol said.
About half of the participants said they planned to undergo additional medical screenings, such as a cholesterol test, mammogram or glucose test, as a result of the information they received from the genetic test.
The researchers planned to re-interview the participants after 12 months to see, among other things, how many actually followed through with those plans.
"The likelihood that reported intentions will translate into actual increases in use (of medical screenings) is extremely low," the researchers said.
That might not so bad, considering many of the screenings probably aren't necessary and would waste limited health-care resources, they said.

Thin, More Flexible Aerogel Material Unveiled
redOrbit Staff & Wire Reports – Your Universe Online
An enhanced version of the world's lightest solid material, said to be as much as 500 times stronger than its predecessors, was unveiled during a meeting of the American Chemical Society (ACS) on Sunday.
The substance, a new flexible aerogel, replaces traditional silica-based types of the solid insulating material, the organization said in an August 19 announcement.
Traditional aerogels are brittle, easy to break, and prone to crumbling, Dr. Mary Ann B. Meador explained, leading experts to develop a more durable and versatile version of the material.
"The new aerogels are up to 500 times stronger than their silica counterparts," Meador said. "A thick piece actually can support the weight of a car. And they can be produced in a thin form, a film so flexible that a wide variety of commercial and industrial uses are possible."
The more flexible aerogels could have many uses. They could be used to help develop insulated clothes, tents, or sleeping bags that allow people to withstand cold temperatures beyond that found in modern thermal type garments. Furthermore, it could also be used to insulate the insides of refrigerator or freezer units, which would reduce the amount of space needed for cold-producing technology and increase food storage area.
"Meador said that the aerogel is 5-10 times more efficient than existing insulation, with a quarter-inch-thick sheet providing as much insulation as 3 inches of fiberglass," the ACS said. "And there could be multiple applications in thin-but-high-efficiency insulation for buildings, pipes, water heater tanks and other devices."
NASA is also said to be exploring a number of different uses for the aerogel technology, including as a heat shield for re-entry vehicles, or a material used to help insulate astronauts' spacesuits. However, the ACS says that the aerogel has a 575 degrees Fahrenheit temperature limit, meaning that it likely could not be used by firefighters, who require protection from more extreme heat than that.
"Scientists produced the stronger new aerogels in two ways," the organization said. "One involved making changes in the innermost architecture of traditional silica aerogels. They used a polymer, a plastic-like material, to reinforce the networks of silica that extend throughout an aerogel's structure."
"Another involved making aerogels from polyimide, an incredibly strong and heat-resistant polymer, or plastic-like material, and then inserting brace-like cross-links to add further strength to the structure," they added.

TI - Interdigitation Pattern of Dorsal-fin Pterygiophores and Neural Spines, an Important Diagnostic Character for Symphurine Tonguefishes (Symphurus: Cynoglossidae: Pleuronectiformes)
JO - Bulletin of Marine Science
N2 - Numbers of proximal dorsal-fin pterygiophores in each of the anterior most five interneural spaces (ID patterns) were examined in 69 of 71 nominal species of symphurine (Symphurus) tonguefishes and were found to be of diagnostic value. All species of Symphurus typically
have a single pterygiophore inserted into the first interneural space, a unique arrangement among the Cynoglossidae and related taxa that supports the monophyly of the genus. All but seven species in the genus usually have two pterygiophores inserted into interneural spaces four and five.
Observed variation among species in ID patterns, therefore, results primarily from different numbers of pterygiophores inserting into interneural spaces two and three. Formulae for individual ID patterns listed below, with a single exception, are abbreviated to represent the pterygiophore
arrangements in the first three interneural spaces. Nine different predominant ID patterns were discovered among 69 species examined. These patterns and the numbers of nominal species (in parentheses) possessing each are as follows: 1-2-2-1-2 (7); 1-2-2 (16); 1-2-3 (3); 1-3-2 (15); 1-3-3 (4);
1-3-4 (1); 1-4-2 (4); 1-4-3 (11); and 1-5-3 (8). Overall, average fidelity for the predominant ID pattern was approximately 78% per species, with values ranging from 37 to 100% per species. Forty-eight species had 70% or more of the individuals possessing the predominant ID pattern; seven
had 60% or more with the predominant ID pattern; and only four of 69 species had 50% or fewer of the individuals with the predominant ID pattern. Less than 5% of the individuals per species had anomalous ID patterns that provided little or no useful information for identification of the specimens.
Between 0 and 37% of the individuals for most species had variant ID patterns that were predominant patterns recorded for other species. Twenty of 24 New World species with 1-3-4, 1-4-2, 1-4-3, and 1-5-3 ID patterns had between 0 and 43% of the individuals per species with secondary ID patterns
that occurred uniquely in species characterized by these predominant ID patterns. Intraspecific variation in ID patterns was limited and predictable for each species and was found to be largely non-overlapping among species with different predominant patterns. ID patterns are an important
diagnostic character for Symphurus, especially when used in combination with caudal- and dorsal-fin ray counts. Geographical ranges of species characterized by each predominant ID pattern were plotted within four major marine faunal regions revealing interesting distributions for species
with different predominant patterns. Species with 1-2-2-1-2 and 1-2-2 ID patterns occur predominantly, while those with a 1-2-3 occur exclusively, in deep-sea habitats throughout temperate and tropical regions of the Indo-Pacific. Only one species with a 1-2-2-1-2 ID pattern and two with the
1-2-2 pattern occur in the Atlantic, while no species with these three ID patterns is found in the eastern Pacific. Species characterized by other ID patterns are not found in the Indo-Pacific region. Those with the 1-3-2 and 1-3-3 ID pattern occur only in northern and southern hemispheres
of the Atlantic Ocean and in the tropical eastern Pacific from the Gulf of California to northern Peru. Species with 1-3-4, 1-4-2, 1-4-3, and 1-5-3 ID patterns are found only in the New World. Symphurus calfopterus, the only species with the 1-3-4 ID pattern, and all species with the
1-5-3 ID pattern occur in temperate and tropical regions of the eastern Pacific. Four species characterized by the 1-4-2 ID pattern occur entirely in the western Atlantic, while those with a 1-4-3 pattern occur in shallow-water environments of the western Atlantic and eastern Pacific Oceans.

Ain't nothin' holdin' me back nothin'
I'll keep right on, right on truckin'
– Eddie Kendricks, Keep on Truckin'
Steph Curry and Kevin Durant launching heat check threes like trebuchets of fire is fun to watch. LeBron James and Russell Westbrook barrelling towards the rim on fastbreaks, unstoppable freight trains of power and agility, is fun to watch. Anthony Davis and Giannis Antetokounmpo catching impossible lobs with go-go-gadget arms is fun to watch. Rudy Gobert and DeAndre Jordan meandering over from the weakside, lurking, before springing up to swat away a shot attempt with authority is fun to watch. Kyrie Irving and Chris Paul putting the ball on a string and tripping up helpless defenders is fun to watch.
I don't know how much fun the casual fan has watching Nikola Pekovic play, but hell if it isn't fun for me. He's not any of those guys above; he's a below the basket center who is going to feed you a steady diet of seal, turn, catch, post move, shovel or hook shot. I imagine as a competitor, there'd have to be something satisfying about everyone on the floor knowing exactly what you're going to do and physically imposing your will to do it anyway.

NCAA turns down Mauk again, sets final appeal
Updated: August 25, 2008, 9:56 PM ETAssociated Press
CINCINNATI -- Quarterback Ben Mauk lost another round Monday in his attempt to get one more season of eligibility from the NCAA, leaving him down to his last appeal.
Mauk, who led Cincinnati to a No. 17 final ranking last season, was turned down by the NCAA's staff for the fourth time on Monday. Mauk has failed to convince the association that injuries cost him significant playing time during his career at Wake Forest and Cincinnati.
However, the NCAA's reinstatement committee scheduled ...

We take our dogs for walks every day. Hey they need their exercise too. We use the 4 ft. leash because you have alot of control when useing it. They can walk ahead of you or right by your side. This is a very good length. You should try it.

Good leash
posted 5 years ago
I like the 6ft leash for my dog. He walks by my side most of the time, but sometimes when he's looking for that 'right' spot, he likes to move away from me a little. This leash allows him that freedom.
Pros: Does the job
Cons: None

County Courthouses of Georgia Thread!

Laurens County, Dublin Georgia
Location: Dublin
Date Built: 1962
Architectural Style: Modern
Designer: Cunningham and Forehand
Other Information: The current courthouse is the fourth courthouse in Laurens County history. At the time of the county's creation in Dec. 1807, there was no county seat or courthouse. The act creating Laurens County provided that courts and public business initially be held at the house of Peter Thomas (Ga. Laws 1807, p. 3). Sumterville was designated county seat in 1809, but it is not clear what served as courthouse. The legislature moved the county seat to Sand Bar on the Oconee River in 1810, and then to Dublin in 1811. A temporary courthouse was built in 1811 in either Sand Bar or Dublin. At some point after Dublin became county seat, a two-story courthouse was built. The third Laurens County courthouse -- a large, two-story brick structure with imposing clock tower -- was built in 1895 [see postcard 1, postcard 2, and postcard 3]. This building served until a new one-story courthouse was constructed in 1962.
County Courthouse Historical Marker: Click here
County History: Laurens County was one of six new counties created by an act of the General Assembly approved Dec. 10, 1807 (Ga. Laws 1807, p. 3). According to that legislation, Laurens County's original boundaries were specified as:
. . . all that tract or parcel of land herein after pointed out, long and being in the county of Wilkinson, beginning at the mouth of Big Sandy Creek, on the Oconce river, running south sixty degrees west to the Ocmulgee river; thence down the meanders of the same to the upper corner of the fourteenth district on said river; thence north sixty degrees cast to the Oconee river; thence up the same to the beginning. . . .
Georgia's 34th county was named for Col. John Laurens of South Carolina. Laurens, who had been aide-de-camp to George Washington, was involved in numerous battles -- including the siege of Savannah -- and was killed in battle in 1782.
On Dec. 13, 1808, the legislature created Pulaski County from Laurens County (Ga. Laws 1808, Nov.-Dec. Sess., p. 52). On Dec. 11, 1858, portions of Laurens County were used to create Johnson County (Ga. Laws 1858, p. 32).
This postcard, printed and hand tinted in Germany, was published by the Dublin Courier Dispatch and bears a Dec. 10, 1909 postmark from Dublin. Because the address side of the postcard has an area for a personal message, which was only allowed after March 1907, the postcard was printed between 1907 and 1909 -- which would mean that the photo likely was taken before 1909.

I think my major issue with this is that people go to university to learn to become the person they are, they find their own views.

I haven't seen the movie, but I highly doubt it's "The Birth of a Nation: Part Two". I think if you don't like something, by all means speak out against it and say why you find it wrong. I draw the line when it comes to surpressing what you dislike. As far as the safety issue goes, I find it to be overblown. Racist assholes are going to be racist assholes, this movie is not going to change that for better or worse. Especially on a progressive campus like U of M.

On Thursday, June 28, the Massachusetts House and Senate each voted to approve a $32.5 billion state budget bill. We had previously reported on an amendment to the budget that would have prohibited the compensation of directors, independent officers and trustees of public charities without the approval of the Massachusetts attorney general. This amendment was not included in the budget bill passed yesterday in the House and Senate.
Foley Hoag will continue to track legislative developments affecting public charities and their officers and directors, and is available to advise public charities of any resulting implications. If you have any questions, please contact Sharon C. Lincoln, Kevin C. Conroy or Noah J. Kaufman at Foley Hoag.

A judicial commission set up by the Supreme Court is trying to make the controversial Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) more humane, and the security forces more accountable. The committee has suggested fixing a time frame of three months for the central government to decide whether to prosecute security personnel engaged in extra-judicial killings or unruly behaviour in insurgency-hit regions.
Under AFSPA, security personnel cannot be tried in a court of law without the central government's permission. In its report submitted to the apex court, the three-member committee headed by Justice (retired) N Santosh Hegde recommended that if the central government failed to respond to the state government's request for action within three months, it would be presumed as a grant of sanction.
The Commission was set up in January this year to inquire into six extra-judicial killings in Manipur, but the panel went on to study the act in detail. It then suggested measures to make the law humane and increase the accountability of the security administration.
In a separate note annexed to the 114-page report, commission member Dr Ajai Singh - a retired Karnataka cop - said that extra-judicial killings lead to hatred against the security forces. He noted that AFSPA was an impediment to achieving peace in regions such as Jammu and Kashmir and the northeast.
"Perhaps the AFSPA is preventing the government and administration from thinking innovatively to solve the problems. It is said that for a man with a hammer, every problem is a nail to be hit on the head with the hammer," said the former top cop, who led the investigations into the terrorist attack on the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore as well as the terrorist attack in Hubli. "Why has the same law not been used in other parts of the country which have been reeling under the Naxal violence?" he asked.
The commission also said the law needs to be reviewed every six months to see whether its implementation is actually necessary in states where it is being enforced. About Section 6 of the act, which guarantees protection against prosecution to the armed forces, the report said: "It is not that no action can be taken at all. Action can be taken but with prior sanction of the central government."
The three-member team, which also included former chief election commissioner JM Lyngdoh, added: "Despite repeated questions posed by the commission, we have not been informed of any monitoring system to review the use/abuse/misuse of these powers by the security forces as claimed by the central government in their affidavit before the Supreme Court."

Okay, so I'm in a weird must-cut-all-bills state of mind.
Cuts Already Made
First it was the easy cuts like finding a different electric provider like I do at the end of every contract. Then it was the harder ones. Cutting cable and switching to Ting were big leaps for us. Then we cut biweekly house keeping, which we had for 7+ years. I thought our heads may explode without our big luxuries. Now it's become like a game. I need to get a real hobby, huh? 😉 Let's look at this piece by piece:
Budget Cuts Made and Future Plans
- Income Taxes – $2250 Can't change this…
- Home Mortgage – $990 Can't change this right now either…
- Home Insurance/Property Taxes/HOA – $800 I keep fighting the good fight with the appraisal board, but this is what it is for now.
- Rent House Home Insurance/Property Taxes – $350 Diddo.
- Food – $500 Putting a pin in this for right now. Our potlucks are a main entertainment expense as well as food-heavy.
- Health Insurance – $320 This was the lowest plan I could find that had anything we needed.
- Electricity – $150 Switched to Discount Power a couple of months ago since they were at 8.9 cents per k/h. So far, so good.
- Gasoline – $150 We don't drive excessively for fun and gas prices are at $1.83 per gallon here right now. This is as good as it gets.
- Car Insurance – $80 This is for full coverage on two vehicles…I can't find better.
- Cell Phones – $60 Yay, Ting!
- Internet (DSL) – $55 WANT TO LOOK INTO THIS
- Lawn Care – $50 (average over the year) I'm good with this luxury.
- Water – $50 Sadly, our public utility district water company is just expensive.
- Natural Gas – $40 Only one provider.
- Life Insurance – $30 Solid price for a $250,000 policy on both of us.
- Medicines – $20 This is better when our allergies behave.
- Netflix – $10 We use this daily since we cut cable. And I cannot wait for the new season of Orange is the New Black!
- Other Entertainment – $50 We generally keep this to $30-ish for a movie night or something, so I may lower this target.
- Miscellaneous and Cash – $250 Stuff pops up and I think it's unrealistic to think otherwise…
Next Target – Internet
Looks like the only two categories I really have a shot of changing right now are food and the internet. I am mulling over getting crazy with our food budget. This leaves the internet as my next target! Let's see if I can find high-speed providers for less than $55 a month…
Overall, I am pretty surprised that there isn't much more I can do. I guess once we actually, voluntarily gave up biweekly house keeping, I knew that we were towards the end of our options, lol. I literally started this post and just ran with it. I bet if I do find cheaper internet, food may be hit next…
What budget cuts are you looking into?
