Environmentalist alleges bid to grab land
The Central Empowered Committee (CEC) constituted by the Supreme Court to protect forest and wildlife has in a letter asked for details regarding the Kolleru Wildlife Sanctuary border dispute from the Andhra Pradesh Forest Department.
CEC Member Secretary M.K. Jiwarajka responded to a letter by environmental activist and former BSNL officer Allamsetti Satyanarayana complaining about the vested interests grabbing land in the sanctuary. He had based the complaint on the reports published in The Hindu giving details about pressure being exerted on revenue and forest officials to distribute notified land in the Kolleru Wildlife Sanctuary.
The CEC was constituted by the Supreme Court on May 9, 2002 and presently comprises six members. Owing to tremendous pressure on forest resources and the unsustainable development leading to massive destruction of wildlife habitat, the Supreme Court intervened.
Mr. Satyanarayana, responding to the news items in The Hindu, wrote to the CEC about the efforts being made by vested interests in getting the land distributed to families living below the poverty line. Only two out of 260 acres that has been developed as a roosting area for the Gray Pelicans in Atapaka near Kaikaluru would be left with the Forest Department if the land was distributed, Mr. Satyanaryana said.
The Forest Department has already recognised the area in dispute as special "birding area". Hundreds of birds of different species visit seasonally for breeding and feeding. Despite the hue and cry being raised by environmentalists, the politicians too are egging the locals to stake their claims. Eluru MP Kavuri Sambasiva Rao, on a recent visit to the area, said that he and his supporters would lay siege to Eluru if the land was not distributed.

AAU Alum Sheffey paces University of Tennessee in XC opener
September 15, 2011AAU Athletics
Originally published at http://www.utladyvols.com
Written by: Eric Trainer
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Brittany Sheffey is a senior cross country runner from Bellport, N.Y., who turned in a fourth-place finish in a personal-best time of 14:11.83 at the 4K Belmont-VU Opener on Sept. 2. It marked the first time in her collegiate career that she had paced Tennessee, but it was the 19th-straight meet during her career that she factored into the Big Orange's scoring total.
On Saturday, she will lead the Lady Volunteers into battle vs. Kentucky at the Tennessee Invitational in Maryville. Race time for the UT women is 9:45 a.m. Eastern time on the 5000-meter trail at Lambert Acres Golf Club. For directions to the course and other information, please go to Tennessee Invitational website.
Here are Sheffey's responses to "Twenty Questions" from UTLadyVols.com:
1. How old were you when you decided that you wanted to run competitively?
BS: "When I was 12, I was in the seventh grade, and I started to run cross country. I really liked it, and I was doing pretty well at it and got moved up to high school track. I liked the feeling of doing well. I liked being on the team, inspiring people and having them inspire and motivate you. I just liked the whole team aspect."
Editor's Note: After running middle school cross country as a seventh-grader, Sheffey ran high school track since there was no middle school indoor track available at Bellport Middle School. From that point on, she competed for the Bellport High School team.
2. Who were some of the people who encouraged you to pursue running?
BS: "I was first motivated by some teachers I had. My middle school teacher I ran cross country with for the first time was Miss Roth. She moved me up to high school track, so from that point on my coach was Mr. Schoppman. My family and my friends also influenced and encouraged me, too."
3. Do you have any pre-race superstitions or rituals?
BS: "I try to pray a lot to relax myself. I am one who goes to Dr. Joe Whitney (UT's director of mental training), and I use some of the things he has taught me to relax myself. I also listen to music."
4. What is your pre-race go-to musical artist or group?
BS: "I really like R&B music to relax me. I like some "Florida" music that I've actually gotten from Brittany Jones (track & field teammate), so I listen to some of that. It's more the beats. I'm a beat type person when it comes to music. I also like Nikki Minaj's song,"Fly;" I really like that song and have been listening to it recently."
5. Do you get nervous before you race? If so, how do you deal with that?
BS: "Yes, I do. I pray a lot. I go to Joe Whitney, so I use the techniques he has taught me, and it helps a lot. Thank God I have him! He talks about breathing, relaxing and believing in yourself and knowing that your race is important, but if you don't do well it's not the end of the world."
6. What is your favorite cross country course you've ever run?
BS: "Paul Short." (The Brooks Paul Short Run in Bethlehem, Pa., is contested on the Goodman Campus Course at Lehigh University. UT will run there on Sept. 30.)
7. How does Lambert Acres compare? Do you notice the scenery there?
BS: "I haven't been there in so long (since 2008), but I do remember it being tough. It might be the fact that I was younger, but I do remember it being tough. As I talk to my teammates, both current and past, I know everyone thinks it is tough.
"At first I didn't (notice the Smoky Mountains in the background) because I was so focused on the meet. I was young and very nervous. After the race when we had a workout, you get to experience that a little more."
8. Facebook, Twitter or both?
BS: "Actually, neither. I have a Facebook, and I very rarely go on there. I did more two years ago, but now I'm not active with it. I don't really have time, and I'm not real interested. I thought about deleting it, but I haven't because you are in contact with people who aren't right here in the immediate area. It keeps you in contact with old friends. I use my phone more. I'm a big phone person – texting and calls."
9. What's your favorite thing about running cross country?
BS: "The accomplishment. I feel accomplishment always after I have some type of success or finish a race, but I feel a great sense of accomplishment after cross country races, I guess because I know a problem I have is concentration over time. Cross country is so tough and there are a lot of aspects that come into play sometimes. You have to tap into other things besides talent, so there is a lot that goes into it.
"It's very mental, and one of my weaknesses has been being mentally strong with concentration over a long period of time. In the beginning I'm fine, and at the end I'm fine. It's that middle part (that I have trouble with), and that's cross country."
10. What do you think about while you are running, and how do you keep yourself focused during the course of a race?
BS: "I'm the kind of person who uses markers to break the race up. I focus on getting from one marker to the next marker, similar to how I would do in a race on a track. My markers may be in 1000s or by miles. Breaking it up into shorter increments seems to help."
11. Is there any talking going on out there, and what's the craziest thing you've ever heard someone say on the course?
BS: "It's much more physical out there than people realize. There's a lot of elbowing and jostling for position, especially in cross country, where there are so many more people out there than there are in races on the track. You just want to get out into the lead. You hear people cheering on their teammates to get up there and stay with them.
"I've heard foul language. (Laughs) You're getting into the grit of it, and people get irritated because they've been hit or cut off by someone."
12. If you find yourself with some free time, after classes, practice and studying, of course, what do you like to do?
BS: "I'm a big sleeper, so I sleep a lot. I like to hang out with my friends on the team. My boyfriend is here at UT, so I like to hang out with him. I have a puppy; her name is Diamond, so I hang out with Diamond a lot. I also like to watch movies."
13. What's your favorite sport to play or watch (other than track and field or cross country), and why?
BS: "I've always liked gymnastics and ice skating. I really like to watch it on TV. It's such an art. All sports are art, but those truly are. I feel like people don't know all the hard work that goes into it to see the beautiful picture that comes out. It's very similar to running in that way as well as the idea of competing individually against the rest of the field.
14. You have an undergraduate degree in political science and are pursuing a master's in agricultural leadership. What do you plan to do with that combination of degrees?
BS: "I am thinking about being a lobbyist. I really want to get involved in community involvement, activist-type work. Right now, I'm researching youth development organizations, and I'd really like to get involved with an organization like the United Way or some type of youth development organization."
15. What's the biggest challenge you've had to overcome in your running career?
BS: "My transition from high school to college, and then knowing what it takes to have success. You need to have a lot of discipline, know how to manage your time and eat well. Also, the redshirt year (2009 track/2010 cross country) that I had to sit out because of an injury was very difficult. I felt like I was in pretty good shape, and I was really excited and felt like things were really coming together. I know God allows everything to happen for a reason, so I knew that my time would come and I'd get to run again."
16. What does it feel like to wear Lady Vol orange and represent UT?
BS: "It just feels so great. It's a great tradition, and there is so much love and support from our campus, community, fans, teammates and family. It makes you want to go out and live up to the tradition, do your best and show all of the hard work that we do here.
"People approach us at meets, and it's great. That happens especially during track season at Penn Relays and closer to home. People just love Tennessee and the Lady Vols, so you just want to show them what that is all about. I'm just so grateful to be here, you want to represent the program in a positive way."
17. What's something interesting about you that people may not know?
BS: "My first job, I was a clown and a party leader. I would lead around characters, like Dorothy the Dinosaur from the Wiggles and Elmo (Sesame Street). Yes, I did that. It was back home at Fancy Parties by Michelle."
18. Were you nervous about your first race after not competing last season or did you feel prepared because you ran so well in the spring on the track?
BS: "I was nervous. You're always nervous when you get out there for your first race. I just knew I had to be there for my teammates. I'm an upperclassman as the girls were to me when I was younger, and I wanted to be there for my team and get out there and run. We've been practicing hard, and I just wanted to continue to develop, get that race in and see some progression."
19. How did it feel to come back from last season and set a 4K PR in the first meet of the season?
BS: "It felt really good. It was a good start, and it makes me happy. Things are going in the right direction and the plan is for things to continue to get better."
20. What are your expectations as you prepare to run this weekend in the Tennessee Invitational?
BS: "We've been putting some good workouts together, so we just want to continue to reach our goals for each meet and for the entire season. We want to gradually get closer as a team, stay motivated and work hard, knowing that we're not just hurting for ourselves but for our team. We want to strive to meet our goal for the end of the season, which is to be the best we can be for our team."

Qompendium is an evolving and ever-changing platform for philosophy, art, culture and science, represented by a series of print publications: magazines, books and monographs. Furthermore, it is enriched by a gallery concept, a work shop and a fast-moving online portal.
Vitor Mattos
Founded in 1996 by Dirk Bauer and Michael Pahl, Fun Factory is today´s largest manufacturer of high quality, aesthetic adult toys not made in China but proudly "Made in Germany" with Hanseatic engineering and high quality assembly line. The founders are very well aware of their impact on the market yet still down to Earth when it comes to market shares. "We made our student hobby project which was born out of a frenzy of creativity to our daily jobs and are still passionate about it. I have not encountered one boring day while sitting and thinking of how to make our products unique and reliable", so Mr. Pahl who is the mastermind engineer behind the company's technology library.
When it comes to success the founders scout themselves collaborators in the realm of design: Mr. Karim Rashid well known for his designs including the Garbo waste can, the Oh Chair for Umbra, a concept store for Giorgio Armani, manhole covers for the sewers of New York, perfume bottles for Kenzo, bobble water for Bobble, watches and tableware for Alessi, lighting for Artemide and products for Veuve Clicquot now was assigned to create the new Fun Factory flagship store in Munich.
Qompendium was invited to witness the opening night of Fun Factory's new store in Munich at the Viktualienmarkt. Have a glimpse with us and don't miss Mr. Pink, a toy especially designed by Karim Rashid.

Brooke Shields about Michael Jackson in her own words: Thinking back to when we met and the many times that we spent together and whenever we were out together, there would be a caption of some kind, and the caption usually said something like 'an odd couple' or 'an unlikely pair,' but to us it was the most natural and easiest of friendships... Michael always knew he could count on me to support him or be his date and that we would have fun no matter where we were. We had a bond... Both of us needed to be adults very early, but when we were together, we were two little kids having fun.

Episode #95
Don't Be Ashamed to Listen Gabfest Edition
Friday, June 13, 2014
The Gabfest panelists have much to discuss this week: Eric Cantor's stunning defeat, a new abortion comedy, the benefits of home economics, and more.
On the political side, the panelists discuss the primary defeat of House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, as well as a court ruling in California over the constitutionality of teacher tenure.
On the cultural side: a discussion on an indie rom-com starring Jenny Slate as a Brooklyn-based comic with a fledgling stand-up routine and an unwanted pregnancy. Does the film's matter-of-fact presentation of abortion make it apolitical or too political? Next, inspired by a Slate piece from Ruth Graham that disparages adults for reading young adult fiction, the gabbers debate the merits of the genre for readers of all ages. And finally, they turn to a New Republic essay by Rebecca Traister advocating the reinstatement of Home Economics—for girls and boys. Should schools be teaching students to cook, clean and sew?
You'll find links to some of the items mentioned in this episode on the Political Gabfest and Culture Gabfest show pages. You can also join the Gabfest discussion all week long at the Political Gabfest Facebook page and the Culture Gabfest Facebook page.

Pls could you inform me about the Van Gogh biographys recommended on your 6/14/14 broadcast. I can't seem to find it on your site. Thank you very much. Isa Vogel
The movie about abortion - reminds me of the banality of evil. It treats evil as ordinary and part of life. Horrible. (Other evils would not be allowed to be treated in this way.)
The question of whether or not adults should read YA fiction reminded me of this Stewart Lee bit from a few years ago:

Screams, chainsaws and maniacal laughter will greet those to dare to visit "A Nighmare on Highway 45" haunt during the Halloween season. For the third year, Tim White, Keith Bagwell, Eddie Malone and a dozen volunteers put together a haunted walk–through behind Cathy's Restaurant in West Point.

STARKVILLE — After a night to evaluate the situation, Mississippi State University determined that 153 female students will be displaced as a result of a Sunday night fire in the Oak Hall residence hall, rather than the initially expected 198, according to university chief communication officer Sid Salter.
Oak Hall, a four-floor residence hall on the south end of campus, opened for the beginning of the fall 2012 semester. MSU's Housing and Residence Life website lists the residence hall as having a 382-person capacity.
Four residents in Clay County had new homes to call their own as the county finished its HOME project for the year last week. The project, funded by a $433,950 grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), saw four substandard homes demolished and replaced during the past year.
The Clay County Board of Supervisors voted to approve the county's local match for the Appalachian Regional Commission's (ARC) Airport Road project at its meeting Monday.
Clay County Chancery Clerk Amy Berry said the project will involve extending, widening and overlaying .244 miles of Airport Road next to Walmart in West Point. The cost will be largely covered by an ARC grant, according to Berry, with local funds covering the remaining costs.

OXFORD, Miss. (AP) — Alabama's new high-powered offense was nowhere to be found on Saturday afternoon. Its usual clutch plays in the fourth quarter were missing as well.
Instead, it was upstart Mississippi with the big moments in the final minutes, with quarterback Bo Wallace leading the 11th-ranked Rebels to a come-from-behind 23-17 victory over No. 3 Alabama.
The games are counting for more and more marbles. The scenarios are not win or go home ... yet, but the magnitude of each game grows each passing week.
After the first half of the season, in which non-district opponents were played, the Clay County football teams are hoping to make progress in division championship bids and postseason aspirations.
On April 28, the Tupelo landscape underwent a drastic change as an EF-2 tornado ripped through the North Gloster area of the city. Since then, the city has been working to clean up and rebuild.
Shane Hooper, director of the city's Development Services division — which encompasses departments such as economic development, building inspection and code enforcement — spoke to Rotarians Thursday at First United Methodist Church in West Point about the ongoing efforts to restore damaged structures in Tupelo.
October is here and Halloween's around the corner, but local officials are already preparing for a visit from Santa and the Holiday Express. The Kansas City Southern Railway Company's 14th annual Holiday Express run will roll Dec. 2 into West Point, and KCS and West Point officials got together Thursday to discuss logistics.

"Thanks for the question. We love this jacket. It is very pretty. The centerback measurement is approximately 28 inches to the bottom of the jacket. The fur that comes with the jacket is just the removable piece around the top. It really looks like 2 different jackets with the removable fur option, so it is versatile. "

Question by Ann M on 8/23/2011 - 9:49 pm
"The new luxury line from Spyder only has approx 60g of insulation where as this jacket as 100g so it's much warmer. If you normally buy as size 8, then you are fine in a size medium for this jacket. "

4 years $27 M is a great deal. Glad this to see Phillips is signed long term.
Here are some more details on the contract:
The new contract includes a club option for a fifth season. If Phillips is traded, it becomes a mutual option that would bring the total value of the contract to $43.25 million.

College-cost bubble ready to pop?
Students loans hit record $1 trillion, defaults rise
In 2010 the average tuition consumed 38 percent of median annual earnings, up from 21 percent in 2001, according to an analysis by Bain & Company, a management consultant, and Sterling Partners, a private equity firm.
So even if a bubble-bursting market correction seems unlikely, there's plenty of evidence that financial stress from higher education creates a drag on the national economy.
Ralph Chapoco accumulated $87,000 in student-loan debt on the way to earning a master's degree in business administration from UCLA.
Although he landed a job, Chapoco hunkered down to take care of his debt load. He moved back in with family in Carlsbad and plans to make his old car last as long as possible.
With friends in worse financial shape, his goal is to quickly pay down debt — and get out of his parents' house. He has nine years left on a standard 10-year payment plan.
"I have wanted to travel, and I have saved up some money to do so, but at the back of my mind I am always thinking that all the money I have should be spent on paying down debt," he said in an email last week.
Statistics suggest that Chapoco made some smart trade-offs. Although the advantage is shrinking, lifetime earnings are still sharply higher for workers with bachelor's or postgraduate degrees than those with high school diplomas or less.
Yet in an economy one man's frugality is another's lost income.
Researchers say debt, college bills and poor job prospects are causing young people to postpone major life events — such as marriage, having children or buying a house — that produce outsized economic growth. The trend marks a major change.
Society's relationship with higher education was wildly successful for a half-century after World War II, as the GI Bill kicked off a long tradition of government support. Millions earned degrees, fueling astonishing productivity gains and rapid expansion of the middle class.
America's higher-education system remains the world's best by most measures. But the last decade has delivered a declining value proposition for its customers.
For openers, a degree's income boost has diminished, as globalization and automation changed the economy faster than workers and schools adapted.
Economist Richard Vedder reports that in 1970 less than 1 percent of taxi drivers had degrees. Today more than 15 percent do.
Getting a great job straight out of college has never been a lock. Conditions got much worse with the Great Recession.
Federal funding for college has grown. But cutbacks by state governments in support of public colleges, which began before the 2008 calamity, have accelerated since; falling nationwide by 27 percent in five years.
The retreat has sent prices sharply higher for students who otherwise could respond to hard times by choosing a state university or community college.
Using inflation-adjusted 2013 dollars, the sticker price for California's community college system has jumped 111 percent over the last five years, while four-year public universities were up 57 percent, according to the College Board. Private nonprofits, which cost more and thus are arguably more responsive to consumer stress, were up just 10 percent.

14 Aug Fashiontonian of the Month: Aureta Thomollari
Each month we showcase a Washingtonian who works in a fashion related industry. By doing this we hope to show off the great talent we have in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. We are excited to announce luxury consultant and fashion blogger Aureta Thomollari as our August 2012 "Fashiontonian of the Month."
Did you grow up with a love for fashion? If not, when would you say your interest for fashion developed?
When I was about twelve years old I became aware of fashion. I remember putting my parents' outfits together for teacher meetings. Of course, my style has changed and evolved through the years, but there are certain designers I've loved my entire life, like Yves Saint Laurent and Balenciaga. I approach clothing as art and began collecting pieces over a decade ago. Their shapes and forms inspire me; indeed, I find that the clothing I acquire feeds my personal creativity.
What inspired you to start your blog and what has been your philosophy?
Over the years, friends and family suggested many times that I start blogging. Finally, I was convinced, and I'm very happy I did. Blogging for me is therapeutic – it is my diary, a "visual documentary," as I call it. And what a great way to look back and remember my life!
You are one of a growing pool of fashion bloggers who have been noticed by the industry and are asked to attend Mercedes Benz Fashion Week and more. How did you make that transition from local to more nationwide / global?
I haven't changed my approach at all, but as time passes, more people have become aware of the blog, and this has led to a variety of opportunities. To me, however, the blog is still the same thing it's been from the start, and I approach it the same way, as a record of my life.
What do you think is the next frontier for bloggers?
I can't speak for anyone else, either to why they started blogging in the first place, or what their expectations may be. For me, it was about self expression and creating a visual diary. The response from people all over the world was instantaneous and overwhelmingly positive. It's been a very rewarding experience thus far, leading to friendships and even professional projects. I can't guess what might be next because I never thought it would lead to all this, but if it continues as it has been going, it will be a thrilling ride.
As a blogger, how do you react the criticism from some in the industry that bloggers are not journalists and their opinions should only be taken with "a grain of salt?"
Don't you think that everyone's opinions should be taken with a grain of salt? After all, they're just opinions! I'm flattered when someone appreciates my choices or agrees with my vision, but I'm not insulted when they don't. It's all a matter of personal taste, and when it comes to self-expression through the art of fashion, you also have to know that what works well for you might be a disaster for someone else.
Our last Fashiontonian of the Month designer Marti Horwitz named you as one of the "celebrity (dead or alive) [she] would love to dress" How does that make you feel?
It's an honor. I think she's a very talented designer with a wide range of skills and an exciting vision. She was kind enough to send me a few pieces, which I wore immediately! I look forward to seeing what she does next and to wearing more of her designs.
What are your favorite places to shop in DC / worldwide?
In DC, I like Hu's Wear and the Georgetown flea market. Outside of DC, I love Maxfield's and Barneys in LA, Colette in Paris, Calypso in St. Barth's, Jeffrey in NY, Dover Street Market in London, 10 Corso Como in Seoul and Milan, LGB and Bedrock in Tokyo. Also, LA has amazing vintage stores and flea markets; Shareen Vintage, Rose Bowl, Decades and Resurrection are standouts. For online shopping I love Net-A-Porter.
What is coming up next for Aureta Thomollari?
Hopefully more of the same: traveling, writing, eating, laughing, exploring new opportunities and relaxing with friends. In short, to enjoy every day as if it were my last.
Describe your aesthetic in three words.
Eclectic old-world glamour.

- Designer: Adrian Frutiger
- Design foundry: Linotype
- Source: Linotype
In drawing the Avenir® typeface, Adrian Frutiger looked to both the past and the future for inspiration. His goal was to reinterpret the geometric sans serif designs of the early part of the 20th century in a typeface that would portend aesthetics of the 21st century. He succeeded handsomely. In doing so, Frutiger added a bit of organic humanism to the design, freeing Avenir from the rigid geometric overtones of the earlier designs.
Avenir History
Avenir was originally released in 1988 with three weights, each with a roman and oblique version, all using Frutiger's two-digit weight and width convention for names. The typeface family was later expanded to six weights, each with a roman and oblique version. Together with Akira Kobayashi, Frutiger completely reworked the Avenir family in 2004. The result is Avenir Next.
The original Avenir family is made up of designs with gradual weight changes in order to satisfy the needs of specific text applications. While the book and light weights have similar stroke widths, the book weight is well suited for body text, whereas the light was designed for captions and subhead text.
Featured Font: Avenir
Avenir Usage
Dwell magazine switched to Avenir during a 2007 rebrand.
Key Bank adopted Avenir for advertising and in-bank signage. Japan Airlines, Banrisul, Scottish Water, Susquehanna International Group and Red Lion Hotels use Avenir for corporate branding.
Avenir is employed on signage at Dallas Fort Worth and Hong Kong international airports. The city of Amsterdam adopted Avenir as its corporate typeface in 2003. The Girl Scouts of America created a modified version of Avenir for its 2010 rebrand.
LG Electronics uses Avenir extensively in branding, advertising and hardware such as cell phone keypads.

Four straight in Bruins' sights
Posted by Fluto Shinzawa, Globe Staff November 25, 2009 01:48 PM
The Bruins, riding a season-best three-game winning streak, will be gunning for their fourth straight victory tonight to close out their four-match road swing.
"You always want to finish on a positive note," said Claude Julien. "It's a big challenge for us. We know that these guys have had our number now for years. It's never easy to come into this building and win a hockey game."
Tuukka Rask (6-2-1, 2.28 GAA, .919 save percentage) will make his fifth straight start tonight. Rask is 3-1-0 in his last four appearances. Claude Julien said that Tim Thomas (hand), who remains day-to-day, could possibly play on Friday against New Jersey.

Side by Side Vacation
Great place for large/extended families
A Very Special Place....
A Blissful Stay at Side-by-Side
Very private and surrounded by lush foliage, the home itself is warm and welcoming and perfectly designed for our group of 6: My husband and I, our son and his wife, and our daughter, son-in-law and their two little ones.
Photos of Side-by-Side don't do it justice. Two spacious and comfortable living areas are separated by glass sliding doors, allowing the early rising children to play noisily while others slept in. There is just the right amount of colorful and thoughtful décor, making one feel like they are in their own home and we found all the amenities we could want (including two flat screen TVs and Wifi).
All three bedrooms were extremely comfortable, and the Master Suite not only had a walk-in closet but also its own private deck.
The kitchen in Side-by-Side is outfitted with ample cookware and its layout is perfect for several cooks to move about at the same time. We enjoyed shopping for groceries at the large Bailey's general store and alternated dining in with dining out at the local hotspots: Doc Fords (our favorite!), Mucky Duck, Lazy Flamingo, Cheeburger-Cheeburger.
Our family loved both the heated pool, and the beach, which is only footsteps away. Beach towels and beach lounge chairs are provided...plus an outdoor shower for rinsing off!
We rarely saw more than dozen people at any one time on the beach. Some were shell seekers, while others sunned, surfed on boards or with sails. We even spied a frolicking dolphin!
We found Side-by-Side to be very conveniently located. It is only a short drive to the end of Captiva for brunch or to rent bikes or assorted water sport items. Kids can even get pulled on "banana boat" rides. Some in our group had a blast renting wave-runners.
Seeing the throngs of vacationers crowded onto one small beach, at the end of Captiva, made us particularly grateful for the private location we had chosen...especially as we enjoyed the magnificent sunsets.
Make sure to explore the Ding Darling Preserve while you are there, and kids will love the spectacular Castle Mini Golf in nearby Fort Myers.
Our stay at Side-by-Side could not have been more blissful. On our next visit we hope to bring along more family members and rent the additional cottage.
Thanks, Ella, for making our stay so enjoyable and easy!
Great location, lovely house!

System Shock is better.
BioShock 2 is a first-person shooter video game developed by 2K Marin for the Xbox 360and PlayStation 3 video game consoles, and the Windows operating system. It is the sequel to the 2007 video game BioShock. The game was released worldwide on February 9, 2010.The game is set in the fictional underwater dystopia of Rapture, in a biopunk/dieselpunk1968, eight years after the events of BioShock. The protagonist and player-controlled character is a Big Daddy, a being that has had its organs and skin grafted into anatmospheric diving suit. Among the first of its kind, the player-controlled Big Daddy, named Delta, reactivates with no recollection of the past decade's events, and scours the city in an attempt to relocate the Little Sister that he was paired with. Fearing this reunion will ruin her plans for the city, Sofia Lamb sends out her spliced up followers she calls The Family and new Big Sisters in an attempt to deter Delta.
System Shock is better.
this game is different genious and is not made by the same studio
Not bad. Runs quite well on Pentium 4.
i love this game <3

The extra blood volume produced in the obese may so dilute levels of a telltale protein produced by prostates that the popular PSA test may be essentially useless for diagnosing prostate cancer in men carrying extra pounds, a new study in The Journal of the American Medical Association suggests.
The new research, combining data from more than 13,000 prostate cancer patients at The Johns Hopkins Hospital and elsewhere, could eventually affect the reliability of scores of other blood tests for cancer and other diseases in obese people, or at least alter the way those tests are analyzed, investigators say.
The predictive value of the PSA test depends on accurate readings of a protein, (P)rostate (S)pecific (A)ntigen continually pumped out by the prostate. When the prostate is enlarged - due to cancer or other disorders - the concentration of PSA in the bloodstream can increase, signaling the possible presence of a tumor. Physicians thus commonly regard increased PSA values as a first marker to diagnose prostate cancer, to be followed by other diagnostic tests such as physical exams and ultrasound.
Complicating the picture further, the researchers note, that both physical exams and imaging studies are more difficult in obese men.
Although recent studies have shown that PSA concentrations can be lower than expected in obese men with prostate cancer, the current research was designed to determine which of two dueling hypotheses explained this, notes Alan Partin, M.D., chief of the Department of Urology at Johns Hopkins Brady Urological Institute.
One idea was based on the possibility that obese men make less PSA because they tend to have less testosterone, the sex hormone that prompts PSA production. The other attributed the phenomenon to the increased amount of blood that obese men produce to support their size, which has the effect of thinning out the concentration of PSA.

2007 BEST Children's Clothing, South
Olivia Rose Children's Boutique
Scientists theorize that cute babies have had an evolutional leg up, as our Stone Age ancestors were less likely to abandon them. Modern-day parents are obviously far more civilized—but all the same, one could argue that Olivia Rose owner Gloria Peotrowski does give her tiny customers an edge. Her racks of darling yet functional clothing and accessories—including tees from California brand Le Top, colorful leggings by Mulberribush, and jumpers by Sweet Potatoes (tagged with product names like 'You're My Pumpkin Pie')—make their wearers so adorable, they'll be able to get away with anything.

A Reasonable Compromise On Gun Control
Most liberals want gun control. Mostly on people other than themselves, but, I'll ignore that for the moment. So, I'll tell you what, in the spirit of compromise, here's what I'll offer:
- Reinstatement of the original 1994 Assault Weapons Ban
- Ban the manufacture, sale, and transfer of magazines higher than 1o rounds starting the date the legislation passes
- Require background checks on all weapons purchased at gun shows before the purchaser takes ownership of the weapon
- Ban private ownership of all automatic weapons
- A national 7 day waiting period for the purchase of all handguns (with a provision that in certain cases, such as someone who's life is being threatened can get an immediate check and permit from law enforcement. Provided they pass the check)
In return I want
- Ban all late term abortions (except in real cases where the mother's life is in imminent danger, and the doctor must legally sign off on a specific, and legally binding, form)
- Require parental notification for abortions for all women under 18
- Require parental consent for all under 16 (which could be over-ruled by a judge)
- Disallow all federal funding for abortion, including at Planned Parenthood. Want one? Pay for it yourself
- Require a 48 waiting period from the time a woman requests an abortion
I think that's eminently fair, a nice compromise. What do you think?
Oh, and I'll tell you what: I'll also give you
- background checks on all gun purchases, including rifles and shotguns (if someone has had a background check on a purchase within the previous 2 years, they would not need to get another permit*)
And you give me
- Corporal punishment and "hard labor" for all convicted violent felons
Do we have a deal?
*For instance, here in Wake County one must go to the Sheriff's office and pay for a background check and receive a permit for each handgun permit. I have two guns, so, two permits, two checks. I got the permit, then went to get a handgun in 2008. Then did it again early in 2012. Since I received a permit last year, if I wanted to get a Bushmaster .223 there would be no need for a check or permit.

Parker's Ferry
|This article does not cite any references or sources. (August 2007)
Parker's Ferry is a cable ferry located on the Meherrin River in Hertford County, North Carolina. The ferry is operated by a contractor for the North Carolina Department of Transportation.
The ferry is located in on Parkers Ferry Road at the north end of the Meherrin River & Parkers Fishery Road at the south end of the Meherrin River (Hertford SR 1306). It is one of three remaining cable ferries left in operation in North Carolina. The others are the Sans Souci Ferry and Elwell Ferry. The ferry is not considered part of the state ferry system which operates ferries along the immediate NC coast. The NC cable ferries are considered inland ferries and are operated by regional DOT divisional offices instead of the NC DOT Ferry Division.
The ferry differs from most ferries in that it is literally driven, or one could say guided, by a steel cable that is stretched across the river. The cable is secured on each end of the river by steel posts and as the ferry crosses the river, the force of the boat, with the help of rollers on the side of the boat, pulls the normally submerged cable out of the water. The cable is permanently secured to the ferry and allows for the boat to not stray off course in normal river currents. The ferry only carries two cars at its maximum and does not operate in high water conditions or storms for the threat of the cable snapping in treacherous conditions is too great. Persons wanting to ride the ferry that happen to be on the opposite side of the river than the ferry must blow their horn to summon the ferry. The ferry is free of charge. The ferry operates almost every day except for days of high water and bad weather. The Ferry is on land that was part of the Meherrin Indian Reservation. The Meherrin now live about 10 miles away in the Winton area.
Vessel description[edit]
The ferry consists of a steel barge like platform that cars drive onto. Off to one side of the boat is an "engine room" where the operator sits and controls the boat's engine, which actually sits outside beside the room. The ferry is powered by a diesel engine. The operator must know when to let off the throttle, since the ferry has no brakes or on board steering device. In the early days the ferry was made of wood.

PropaneLv - Hey Girl
Artist: Michael Zoah
Producer: D.Shuts
Album: Varsity Blues
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 12 votes )
On Portland, Oregon spitter PropaneLv's Booth debut, Cool Again, the newcomer told an arduous tale of both love and betrayal. Unfortunately, on his return to our pages, the rhymesayer seems to find himself in a similar boat. On the D.Shuts-produced Hey Girl, PropaneLv touches on the familiar saga of "right one, wrong time" as he spits, "Cause I put music over you and always left you alone/ And now I need someone to talk to but you ain't at home." The DJBooth newcomer also briefly taps into his inner crooner on the song's soulful hook as he echoes the sentiment of Hey Girl's bold bars. Unlike PropaneLv's August debut, Hey Girl can be found on the musician's forthcoming project, titled Varsity Blues.
