Tantalizing StudiosRead MoreAt Tantalizing Studios, three levels of tanning beds, hand-blended spray-tans, and top-tier tanning lotions help clients achieve customized tans not possible at every tanning salon. After recommending a tanning lotion from a selection that includes Australian Gold, Designer Skin, and Devoted Creations products, technicians lead individuals to private treatment rooms, where seven different tanning beds await. In addition to tanning, Tantalizing Studios' serene, turquoise-colored studio welcomes those in need of body-waxing and massage treatments.1244 North Shoop AvenueWauseon, OH US
Special Touch Hair Designs and TanningRead MoreThe deft muscle-manipulators at Special Touch Hair Designs knead bone-movers into ache-free bliss with stress-busting massages and pampering spa treatments. The 45-minute hand-and-foot paraffin treatment encases extremities in warm, sticky wax, locking in moisture to leave hands and feet as soft as the Pillsbury Doughboy?s favorite neck pillow. After removing the wax, therapists complete the pampering with hand and foot massages. A one-hour relaxation massage focuses on liquefying tension with broad, smooth strokes while moisturizing skin with cocoa butter or hypoallergenic lotion. Therapeutic massage focuses on knotty muscles, applying deep pressure to clenched backs and shoulders to increase range of motion and circulation. A clean, softly lit room ensconces guests in a serene atmosphere during sessions. Quiet music and warm sheets encourage guests to drift into relaxing reveries, daydreaming about floating through clouds or visiting museums filled only with busts of Teddy Roosevelt.141 S Main StBryan, OH US
Auburn Massage CentreRead MoreAuburn Massage Centre was established in 2007 by co-founders Laura Buchs-Hall and Sarah Lapadot in an effort to share the healing powers of massage therapy and bodywork. During the past five years, AMC's staff has continued to bloom alongside its selection of services, which now range from standard massages to skincare treatments with Lara Teague, who uses Image skincare products.115 W 5th St.Auburn, IN US
The Wellness Center KendallvilleRead MoreIn nature, stones are usually treaded on by the masses as they lie forgotten on the ground. But inside The Wellness Center, stones take center stage during massage sessions. They are heated with care and gently slid along body canvases, lulling tense muscles into relaxation. The massage therapists also incorporate essential oils and salt scrubs into their kneading sessions and slather mud masks over faces for added relaxation.519 Professional WayKendallville, IN US
Magpie's PizzaRead MoreFormerly known as Julie's Family Pizza, Magpie?s invokes four generations of family recipes to craft each of its savory spheres. Soak in the flavors from the ready-made, signature smoky barbecue-chicken pizza, featuring house-made barbecue sauce, chicken, onion, green pepper, and diced pineapple, or follow the spicy klaxon cry of the 5-alarm pizza, spangled with barbecue sauce, pepperoni, jalape?o, pepperocini, and crushed red peppers (9" for $13.28, 12" for $15.90, 17" for $21.60). Diners can careen dangerously roaring appetites into calmer digestive estuaries with a customized pizza outfitted in a variety of toppings, such as spinach, ham, pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, anchovies, and chicken (9" for $7.20+, 12" for $9+, 17" for $13.75+). For an extra $4, the friendly staff can convert any pizza to Chicago?style, outfitting pies with a topping of extra crust, a layer of cheese, and a relaxed stance toward Prohibition. Magpie?s rounds out its fresh offerings with an array of crisp salads, tangy wings, meaty subs, and doughy breadsticks.126 East Albion StreetAvilla, IN US
Shade of Green HealingRead MoreThe certified staff members at Shade of Green Healing melt tired muscles using eco-friendly products, working out of their location at Airport North Office Park or surfing their massage tables directly to customers' homes. During these services, their nimble fingers apply deep strokes and use techniques from modalities such as relaxation and Swedish massage or reflexology. However, the mobile team isn't limited to just massage; they also help clients obliterate calories during personal-training sessions and can target ailments with pranic-energy healing and reiki.428 Broadway StreetNew Haven, IN US

Aransas Pass Aquatic Center closed after chlorine levels dip, children become sick
CORPUS CHRISTI - City officials closed the Aransas Pass Aquatic Center on Monday following reports of children who became sick after swimming.
Lifeguards closed the center's main pools as a safety precaution about noon, said City Manager Reggie Winters. The children's pool also was closed after a child vomited in it Monday, he said.
State health officials inspected the pool's water levels Monday, determining that chlorine levels had dipped below acceptable standards.
The culprit was found to be a faulty chlorine pump, which has been replaced, city officials said.
"We're going to get the chlorine levels back up to where it needs to be and reopen," Winters said.
The pool should be open Tuesday afternoon once city officials get approval from state health officials, he said.
City staff began looking at the pools Monday after reports surfaced of children who swam at the center last week and became ill, Winters said. Several reportedly came down with headaches and nausea after swimming at the facilities.
The center, 400 E. Johnson Ave., has a children's pool, a slide pool and a dive pool. Open swim is from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.For more information, call the center at 758-7770.

This week, Sawgrass Mills Mall announced that it will add the Jimmy Choo name to its lineup at the Colonnade Outlet Malls.
RELATED: The Sunshine Economy: Retail
Jimmy Choo is a new-to-market retailer.
Business reporter Karen Rundlet visits the mall to find the well documented "suitcase shoppers."
New Wave Surgical, a Pompano Beach based company, didn't start out in the manufacturing business.
The founder and president, Ricardo Alexander Gomez, wanted to focus on design and sales of a medical device called D-HELP.
The product helps surgeons clean the lenses of tools used during laparascopic surgeries.
Revenues grew once Gomez and his staff were able to decrease costs of producing the device.
Gomez says revenue is up 1900%.
At the end of June, mortgage interest rates moved into the fours. Psychologically, the jump has given buyers an itch. Rates have surged since the U.S. Federal Reserve began to slow its purchases of U.S. government bonds on which market rates are based. Those purchases have kept interest rates at record lows. What does this mean if you're buying or selling in the local market?
When it comes to real estate in South Florida, we can't pretend it's anything other than a seller's market right now.
Prices are climbing and inventory is tight.

Many U.S. cities are competing to bring biotech companies and jobs to their communities, places like Phoenix, Buffalo, Gainesville and of course, Miami.
They all want to develop an industry cluster, and while cities like San Diego and Boston have already successfully grown theirs, Miami's efforts are still somewhat nascent.
Lennar CEO Stuart Miller earned almost $13 million last year. That's more than $4,000 per work hour, easily making the 55-year-old the highest-paid chief executive among South Florida's largest companies.
Was Miller overpaid? His compensation from the national home builder his father co-founded amounted to 265 times what the Bureau of Labor Statistics said is the average annual pay for someone in the construction business. But by one measure of particular interest to shareholders, Miller's pay may be seen as about right.
Whether or not a hurricane hits South Florida, residents pay a price. Insurance is the biggie for most people.
On the flipside, however, there are companies here that exist and even thrive specifically because of hurricane season.

In the world of technology, the idea is critical. But how to turn it into application and how to monetize it are how start-ups live and die.
And that's where business incubators come in.
During a recent tour of one incubator in Palm Beach County, the conversation quickly turned to real estate, or where incubation actually takes place.

I really like the look of the map. The Dakar nomad just GOES on these bikes so well because it is such a part of their heritage, but in this case I think it takes too much away from the map.
Looking good.

Go Minimal Grfx...
Here's my insignificant take:
You have the perfect colored bike for putting a white / or clear Safari Tank (yes, I can't believe I said "clear")... because this is a perfect looking set up. If you really want to take advantage of the long range capabilities... This is it.
I totally relate with you on "no advertising". Not to upset others ( who doesn't love a Red Bull Blue Rally Replica or Repsol Orange/ Black/ Red)... But I love the statement of a bike purely naked of advertising... with the subtle manufacturers model on it.
I'm not sure why you don't like the Baja moniker... It's KTM's last opportunity to brand the bike for adventure, which is more of a grass roots logo then the Bedouin "Dakar" logo ( which to me is no longer relevant to this model). The bike hasn't been allowed into the Dakar Rally since S.A.. If you feel the need to loose the "limited edition" logo... so be it.
If you like a bike that's "dirty", "scratched" and "worn" yet looks clean.. Here's a viable solution:
Add the Safari Tank. Then sand down all the stock white plastic with a fine grit wet or dry to give it a "matte" look. Spray matte clear afterward to seal the finish and protect.
Create a stencil on adhesive paper in simple "block" font style ( like on the Safari Tanks) so you can re-spray the logo on to the side covers or tank for a touch up... similar to CJDesigns did for his AWD bike.
What you end up with is a matte white bike that looks utilitarian, looks modern, doesn't easily show it's scratches... And can have any body panel re-touched with a touch up... including stenciled in logos. And remembering, this is how the stock Safari Tank already looks, so it's a perfect match.
Ending blather now.

I only want to cover up the Baja stuff cause I don't want it branded as a special edition... Cause it isn't. It's just another 990 with 210mm travel, lol! I'll brand it something when it gets it's suspenders and tanks though, but discreetly!
Thanks for your input man! It's nice to know I'm not the only one who likes to ride out of the limelight, lol!

For anyone's reference, the Emig triple tree spacing is 106x38/40 and the stock spacing is 90x38/40. On a 990/950 of course it's fat bars unless you change the lower clamp too.

No rush...
Call me an Adventure Fanatic but I feel every model year had a "special" limited edition.... when upgraded to it's maximum potential...
You may feel nothing for the Baja "Limited Edition" logo... but it is the Very Last production run of a cherished bike. The Baja LTD. is a release I believe could be run down to Mike's Sky Rancho, or to Puertocitos bone stock by an average adventure rider... And it would be a total blast on that type of trip out of the box!!! It's a tribute bike... In my eyes. And I'm happy for those who grabbed up the last of a great bike!
What ever you do to it, it will be PERFECT!

Deals you say? Safari tanks you say? Do tell in a PM... Cause this big twin is going all the way, whether my bank likes it or not. Even debt will not stop me. I made that mistake once and I kicked myself for years for not building it right. It IS a great bike off the showroom floor for 40/60 off road/on road. I need it to be 90/10 though and a long distance mile eating machine. Not a Beemer that gets there eventually, but a KTM that gets there before everyone else. :)

Safari Tanks
Fancy... They come in white now!
Still a sizeable sum of money... I imagine I'll go this route in the end, but for now I will have to make do with a 2 gallon RotopaX until I convince myself to stretch my CC a little, lol! Shipping will be insane on them too... I'll start looking for a Canadian supplier.

To Do List Next Week:
T-minus 6 days till flights home. So... This is more for me and my reference than anything really, but it's also a summary of things I think are fairly important to be done to make the bike perform for me. I am going to post the mods/changes I will be doing to the bike next week when I arrive back in Canada (barring any late packages or things stuck in customs). This won't be an engine-out tear down, but close. Gonna be a lot of work to do before I leave Calgary and take it on it's maiden shake down voyage to Washington/Oregon to visit some friends! It'll be a 4000km or so trip and I'm hoping for smooth sailing!
- Take it down to the frame (engine-in)
- Remove stock cans and plunk some FMF's I have on the shelf on (still 3-4 weeks wait on Wings... derp!)
- Cut down the rear mud flap a 1/4" on each side
- Canisterectomy and re-route breather hoses down to the frame
- SAS removal (might skip this till I get back as I would like to ride it with the SAS on first to see how it performs). If I do take it off I'll leave the pumps on to fool the EFI or make the resistor plugs with 22K's
- Drill out chain slider hole and secure with 6mm bolt and a nylock (Anyone have the right length I need?)
- Drill small holes in the bottom tail edge of the swingarm
- Pull front end off and replace triple trees with Emig's. Install Rev I dampener & fork skins.
- Euro headlight swap
- Install Lexan headlight protector (I like these way more than the metal mesh ones... Indestructible too!)
- Properly secure that GPS bracket with an extra bolt through the front brace & some 3M cushion tape (I get dizzy watching it buzz and jiggle around like that)
- HDB top clamp, hand guards/mirrors (the switches and wiring will wait for another time).
- Drop oil, change filters, clean screens, etc
- Install oil change hose extension
- Check air filter
- Drop engine coolant and replace with Engine Ice (I prefer ethanol based coolants for bikes and it's premix, easy!)
- Plumb fuel lines with quick disconnects
- Change plugs out to Iridiums and stow the stocks for spares
- Change horn out to a set of 136db Stebels (plug and play 12V, not the air horn type)
- Swap skid plate for Weld86 kit
- Mod the gear switch relay to disable computer in 2nd/3rd
- Re-locate sidestand with Weld86 bracket
- Swap rear sprocket for a 45T
- Spoon off the 908RR rear and put a TKC80 150/70/17
- Spoon off the 908RR front and replace with either a Michelin T63 or similar 90/90/21
- Fill HD tubes with Dyna Beads and remove rim weights
- Fill spare HD 21" tube with Dyna Beads (I only take one with me cause in a pinch you can use a 21" for either front/rear. Weight savings, lol!)
- Re-assemble and ride 100kms before packing up and leaving, lol!
Yes, I know it's a long list... But it's cause the bike is brand new! I'm going to work on the bike from the stock tool kit and add tools as I need them or see fit to have them. Right now, having only partially disassembled the bike so far, the only tools I KNOW I need are spoons and the kit tools, lol! Every bike is different and I always put together a proper road tool kit that will allow me to do everything I need to do. I can scavenge most everything from the kit I put together for the Dakar and just substitute specific things in. All of that should take me less than 2 days if I haul a$$, but probably will take 2 and a bit due to me being a KTM noob.
Windscreen options... I will ride with and without the stock screen to see what's better for me and I will also have a TF5 at my disposal to see how it works. I wear a brimmed XD4 now, but usually wear a Shoei Rf-1000 for longer trips to save my neck some pain in cross winds. I'll probably pack my street lid just in case I find some problems with buffeting or similar along the way.
I'll primarily be on slab for this little jaunt, but some dirt is involved. A few of the more major changes like suspension, etc are just going to have to wait until later in the year. If I spend too much time wrenching on the 990 I won't get any riding time in! The guys I'm linking up with (From Cali and Washington) ride chrome beasts.... But are probably already trying to sell them for a big twin dirt bike now, hahaha! We'll be headed to Seattle to crash another buddies house for the weekend of the 24-26th. Good times, good friends, bikes... Heck, who wouldn't enjoy it! I'll split from Seattle on the 27th and ride up to Vancouver Island to visit some friends and family there and then head home. I only only get 3 weeks of days off this time out before heading back to Albania... Hopefully for the last time for a few months! Then I can really have a break, lol!
Other things that are going to be done post shakedown ride are:
- SAS removal if not done already
- Possible TuneECU tweaks (O2 sensors, throttle, etc blah blah)
- Sourcing secondary fuel supply whether it is Safari's or RotopaX's or CJ's... I'm leaning towards the Safari's myself, but need to find out a crash bar solution first.
- 265mm suspender hike via Pro-Action or SPS or alike.
- Source a Pyndon pre-filter from AdventureSpec
- Call Woody. Order proper rims (Why would KTM put street fatties on a dirt bike?)
- Wire in a secondary fuse box under the seat
- Under-grip heated grips
- Possible handlebar swap
- Wire in switches and second 12V powerlet on HDB top clamp
- Put Wings on!!!
- Install white high fender and re-do the brake lines to prevent chafing on the fender.
- Possible G2 throttle tube cam if I can't sort the snatchiness at low RPM's/slow riding
- Oberon Clutch Slave and change oil with mineral oil
These will be over time and probably not happen till July/August as the project I'm on right now for work is taking a rather long time to finish. I thought it would be done by now, but still a projected 60-90 days left! Arg, good $$$, but I wanna ride!

If you go up in suspension, plan on replacing the center/side stands. I just did it, and parking the bike is wonky. One can get away with it, but really not stable.

Recent Harbor Springs Reviews
The Best of Northern Michigan!
If you want to experience the true spirit of living in Northern Michigan, this place is it. Charming cottage with a very liveable layout in an awesome location that feels serene but is right on the edge of all that Harbor Springs has to offer. Walk or bike everywhere in the summer, and a 5 minute drive to the ski resorts in the winter. We lived here through the summer and fall and into the winter -- beautiful all the time and the perfect jumping off point to any Northern Michigan adventure.
Beautiful View!
Loved the deck and view, which can't be beat! The waterfront is remarkably shallow, which made for delightfully warm water, so unexpected after our brutal Michigan winter. Great fire pit area which also provided a place to sunbathe on windy days. The cottage is nice, but needed a little 'maintenance' here and there. Also, we were not able to access cell phone service (Verizon).
Such a Great House to Stay at in Harbor Springs!
My family stayed at this house for 4 nights and really loved it. It is so close to the beach and downtown, easily walk to both in less than 10 minutes. The house is decorated very nicely and I love the kitchen. Got some cool ideas for our own house! The owner of the house is very hospitable and a pleasure to rent from . The house was clean and very inviting. We will definitely stay here again! My six year old loved visiting Pond Hill Farm and the Elizabeth Kennedy Nature Center. The 36 year olds liked them too!

How much solids do I give?
It's been going great for me so far. :)
I like the link from the PP. I used that website as well when I started making my dd food. I started out feeding her 1oz (which is 1 ice-cube size for homemade food). After a few days, though, switched to 2 oz since she was wanting more. I feed her 2oz's 3 times a day.
We only do like an ounce each day. Then I let her nurse.
S - Sept 2012 GOLD ( . )( . )
Mine eats cca 1-2 spoons of fruit AM, and cca 3-4 spoons of veggies+meats PM.
Even if I make more fruits, she won't eat more than that and i literary have to deceive her to open her mouth to put the spoon inside... (I want her to eat more fruits because I'm giving her Iron drops with it, to avoid mixing Iron with milk, and to merge it with vitamin C from the fruits...)
On the other hand - veggies+ meats she asks for more, so I guess I'll have to increase the amount,,, (still trying to make her eat more fruits AM though...)
so for dinner my baby had a 3.5oz pouch of stage 1 organic food (mixed with some organic rice cereal so it was probably more like 4oz+ of solids) and then within an hour she had a 5oz bottle. she only eats solds at dinnertime (and I think she's currently going through a grow spurt). i fed her solids until she stopped but then she still wanted a 5oz bottle not too much later.
i guess i'm asking, can you overfeed a baby solids?

What an amazing list. And for the non-coding app maker: http://www.appmockuptools.com.
Hey Chris,
Thanks so much for the shoutout for Kera.
Chris, awesome compilation, we're really proud to be included. Stefan (Team Zapstreak)
In the "Learn to Code Section": http://rubymonk.com
(disclaimer: I work at C42 Engineering, the makers of RubyMonk)
Wow, this gives me some great resources to keep on hand, thanks!
A couple of items I think worth mentioning in the platforms section would be App Harbor (http://appharbor.com) and PHP Fog (http://phpfog.com) for .Net and PHP development.
Both platforms offer free hosting versions that allow you to get your app up and running without cost, and then you can go to the paid platform and get a domain name when ready.
I've worked with both and they are easy to use and very powerful.
Thanks for compiling this awesome list! Just an addition to the learn to code list:
-thenewboston http://thenewboston.org/
-phpacademy http://phpacademy.org/
-coursera http://coursera.org
-appendto http://appendto.com/
-code academy http://www.codecademy.com/
but this site has the biggest collection so far. From free online books on web development, tutorials and free online courses: http://www.coursebacon.com/
Thanks for the great list. The Veritable API was a great find!
Some other interesting APIs I have come across:
Filepicker.io (Handling user content) http://www.filepicker.io

Stripe (Payments for Developers) https://stripe.com/
Factual API (Structured Data APIs) http://www.factual.com/
Hi Chris,
What's best email to reach you on? Have a couple of tools that may be of interest for future reference.
Hey Chris, nice list thanks, liked hearing about many tools and services I didn't know! Another suggestion for the "Learn to Code Section": http://industriallogic.com/elearning has some pretty cool exercises with automated critiques for learning TDD and refactoring.
(disclaimer: I work at Industrial Logic)
Hi Chris,
Fantastic list, thanks for putting it together. I'd like to suggest an item for the "Development Platform" section: http://backendless.com. It is currently in the Beta sign up, but I can arrange a demo..
Disclaimer: I am the founder of Backendless.com
Great list!
I suggest adding http://DevRates.com – open-source reviews by real users at MISCELLANEOUS
Kira is awesome for audio tutorials. If you're looking for a text-based tutorial, consider my new project: http://tutorialize.me. It's cheap and easy to set up!

Nice list but what's the target-developer for it? Any specific technology?
I do not see some big players mentioned.
E.g. JIRA in bug trackers
Continuous integration list also lacks some most widely used ones such as Jenkins/Hudson, TeamCity.
My 2 cents
Hey Chris — this is a fantastic list and will have me spending a few hours (at least) reviewing it and checking out all the tools/services. Thank you so much for taking time and putting it together.
My only suggestion is to add New Relic (http://newrelic.com/) to your list of monitoring tools. It's one of the few (from what I've discovered, anyway) that work with .Net Applications. It's pretty slick and has offered a ton of insight into how my apps are performing and how they could do better. I don't work for them or anything, I've just recently implemented them on a few of my apps and it's been awesome. A bit expensive, but well worth it.
Thanks again,
Thanks for the mention of Bugify!

For fun code learning try checkio.org They have pretty neat approach to learn code by playing around with it and trying to be as creative as you can.
You've forgotten sourceforge.net who can be called the granddaddy of free code hosting! Sacrilege. You HAVE to acknowledge them for the service they render to the FOSS community.
And launchpad.net, using http://bazaar.canonical.com/ which is quite decent too for project hosting.

Would attempt to bring development to urban and suburban areas
Gov. Chris Christie Wednesday announced the creation of a "State Strategic Job Growth Plan," an effort he describes as an ambitious, flexible guide for the future of New Jersey's economic development.
The governor said he expects the plan to become the state's official statewide planning tool and replace the current state plan created 2001. The plan also will attempt to coordinate the action of government agencies to help bring economic development about.
"New Jersey's challenges are too great to be approached in the stratified, haphazard and unrealistic manner that has characterized previous statewide planning efforts," Christie said. "This is a plan that will foster job growth in a sensible, sustainable and truly effective manner over the long term. By focusing our planning and economic development resources around common goals – better identifying and investing in vibrant regions and critical sectors of our economy, supporting effective regional planning, and preserving our invaluable natural resources – we are positioning New Jersey for sustained job growth, competitiveness and prosperity."
The plan calls for "targeting economic growth by promoting growth in regions of the state with clusters of "critical or emerging industries" that would be drivers of economic growth. The centers, which would be called "Regional Innovation Clusters," and existing infrastructure, educational, intellectual and workforce resources would be used to lure additional economic development.
Examples include regions where bio/pharma and life sciences, finance, manufacturing, technology, health care, or emerging solar and offshore wind industries exist.
The plan also calls for "effective planning for "vibrant regions," including areas designated as "Priority Growth Investment Areas" where an effort would be made to promote urban areas with access to quality education, housing, public transportation and infrastructure, parks and recreation.
Such areas would include the Regional Innovation Clusters, port areas, growth areas as identified by regional or county master plans and municipally designated redevelopment areas.
Projects that would especially have state support be those that increase job creation and business opportunities; are compact, mixed use, and accessible to existing development and infrastructure; redevelopment, support healthy communities through environmental protection, and offer diversify housing opportunities.
The plan also calls for continued funding of state preservation efforts and encouraging the use of preservation efforts like development rights transfers that require limited public funding.
The plan also would create by the governor's executive order a "State Strategic Job Growth Plan Steering Committee that would be headed by Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno and include a representative of every department or agency of state government with a role in job creation and economic growth.
The panel would coordinate the development of plans decide how state economic development funds would be allocated. The panel also would work with a "refocused" State Planning Commission and Office for Planning Advocacy to provide a forum for public and local government input.
The State Planning Act, adopted in 1985, requires coordinated statewide planning that is in accordance with local and regional planning. Christie argues that goal has not been met in the plan, adopted in 2001, and has resulted in the development of state capital expenditure plans, land use and environmental regulations separate and apart from economic development, transportation and social services plans.
Christie said conflicting state regulations and inconsistent application of rules and standards discourage economic development and contribute to an existing system of planning that is restrictive, complex, confusing and difficult to navigate.
The governor Wednesday signed an executive order creating the plan and the steering committee.
Christie wants the State Planning Commission to adopt the plan as the official state plan after holding public hearings and providing other opportunities for public comment.
Christie's action was welcomed by the New Jersey State League of Municipalities and criticized by the New Jersey Sierra Club.
"While this is just the first step in a long, public process, the League is encouraged that the administration is focused on state government, and proposes no new requirements or mandates on local governments," Bill Dressel, the League's director, said. "The failure of the state's planning process in the past was rooted in the state's failure to integrate the plan into the missions of the various state agencies. Local governments have gone through three rounds of cross-acceptance, while respective state agencies never engaged in cross-acceptance and never adopted the plan. Municipalities have often been stymied when one state agency approved funding for a project, only to have another agency of state government act as a deterrent.
"The administration's focus on a horizontal integration of a strategic plan for growth will be welcomed by municipalities, who should now be viewed as trusted partners in the process," Dressel said. "The League has long championed the bottoms up approach of the State Planning Act, and the efforts to revitalize our communities while protecting our critical natural resources. Unfortunately, the state has tended to attempt implementing the plan in a top-down, bureaucratic manner. As this blueprint progresses, the state should also embrace a bottoms up process to align the planning priorities across the state."
"This plan was written behind closed doors mostly with developers and the business community with the intention of promoting sprawl and over development forcing government agencies to weaken protections of the environment," Sierra Club Director Jeff Tittel said. "the plan is the opposite of smart growth it is dumb growth. This plan is going to be used justify sprawl and overdevelopment to pave over New Jersey by weakening environmental protections and planning. By encouraging growth in the wrong areas it is going to undermine redevelopment of our existing cities and towns.
"This plan is a series of policies and goals without any map," Tittel said. "There is no transparency since we do not know where the growth areas are written in a vague manner meaning almost anywhere in New Jersey can be interrupted as growth area."

Summer allergies and sinus problems?
For many people, warmer weather may mean the start of sneezing and wheezing, along with a stuffy nose and a tired feeling. Spring signals the start of seasonal allergies. The culprits can be outdoor molds and pollen from grass and trees. In late summer, ragweed pollens can be very high, which may make allergies even worse.
Allergic reactions may lead to mucus buildup inside sinuses or the hollow areas around your eyes and nose. Breathing in steam from a cup of hot water or putting a warm, wet towel on your face may help ease sinus discomfort. Drinking fluids may help thin the discharge from your nose.
Your pharmacist may be able to help. Over-the-counter saline nose sprays or solutions can help rinse out sinuses and prevent painful blockage. Antihistamines and decongestants may also give some relief, although it is important to seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist on their proper use.
Avoid allergy triggersPollen levels near plants generally are highest before 10 a.m., so limit your outdoor activities in the morning. When indoors, keep windows closed and your air conditioner running. Avoid alcoholic beverages, which can make swelling in sinuses worse.
To protect yourself from allergic reactions, you need to identify the substances that trigger your problems. The timing of attacks can be a clue to what causes them. You're probably sensitive to tree pollen if you suffer in early spring. Grass pollen dominates the late spring and summer months. Ragweed takes over in late summer and autumn.
Some people are sensitive to more than one pollen or to some trees and grasses, but not others.
Reducing exposureThese strategies may help reduce your exposure to outdoor allergens:

Residence and Board Contract
This Residence and Board Contract ("Contract") establishes a legal, binding agreement between Northwestern University ("University") and the student ("Student") for use of assigned space and facilities of a residence for and in consideration of the keeping and performing by Student of all understandings, agreements, terms and conditions of obligation enumerated herein.
The Contract does not guarantee assignment to a particular type of accommodation (room or apartment) or assignment to any preference indicated by Student. Student's preferences are requests only - room, apartment, occupancy, and University's granting of roommate requests cannot be guaranteed. Please note that refunds of any prepayments made under this Contract are subject to the below Cancellation Fee Schedule, regardless of cause, including but not limited to reasons related to room or roommate assignment. The Contract also does not determine final admission of the Student to the University. Assignment to on-campus housing is contingent upon the University's final acceptance of the Student for admission, approval of the Contract by the Executive Director of Residential Services ("Director") or their designee and receipt of full payment. If the rate for space, as assigned, varies from the payment made, an additional charge or refund, as the case may be, will be made to the Student. Facilities may vary slightly from descriptions in brochures or from model rooms or apartments. No discounts in rental rates will be made for such variations. The University reserves the right to reassign Student at any time during the contract period for any reason, including but not limited to space availability.
The terms, conditions, and responsibilities are stated below:
1. I understand that the term of this contract is for the forthcoming entire Northwestern University academic year (Fall, Winter, and Spring quarters, excluding Summer quarter) after the signature date of this contract, excluding the winter vacation period. I agree to vacate my room at the specified time on the scheduled beginning date of each such vacation period and within 24 hours of my last final examination in June, or if I am a graduating senior, I agree to vacate my room by 6:00 P.M. of Commencement Day, June 20, 2014. I understand that unless formally released from this contract by the appropriate housing office (see Residence Hall Rules and Regulations, Release from Contract), I am responsible for the room rental charges set forth in the below Cancellation Fee Schedule.
2. I understand that I am also required, as a condition of living in on-campus student housing, to purchase an on-campus board (meal) plan. There are several different board plans from which to choose, depending upon my individual needs. The default board plan provided as part of the residence and board contract is for 14-meals per week. Additional information on the mandatory board (meal) plan is available on the Northwestern Dining website or by calling (847) 491-2020.
3. I understand that to be eligible for residence, I must be enrolled at Northwestern University as a full-time degree candidate or as a special student; and that if such enrollment is terminated for any reason, I am no longer eligible for residence in the premises, I am responsible to advise the Department of Residential Services immediately of such change in status, and I agree to vacate my room within 24 hours of such termination. I agree that I will not occupy nor reside in any space other than my assigned room except that I may have customary use of the common areas. I understand that this contract is not assignable, that subletting is not allowed, and that only the persons assigned by the Department of Residential Services may reside in my room at any time. I further agree that I may not have any overnight guest staying in my room without approval of all my roommates. I further agree that I will not unreasonably interfere with my roommates' or any other resident's rights under similar residence hall contract.
4. I understand that no animal of any kind is permitted in the residence hall at any time; I agree that I will not bring in or keep any animal in any area of the residence hall and that I will not permit any guest or visitor of mine to do so.
5. I understand that maintenance fee charges are required of all residents of the residence hall to which I am assigned. Any social dues are optional, becoming due and payable unless the resident takes appropriate action to opt out of such charges in accordance with the method determined by student government with the cooperation of the housing office.
6. I understand that I am responsible for the care and safety of my personal property and that Northwestern University will not be responsible for any loss by fire, theft, or other casualty.
7. I agree that bills for each quarter are due in advance, in accordance with deadlines stated in the University calendar. If I do not receive a bill by one week prior to the appropriate deadline, I must contact the student finance office to ascertain the amount due. I understand that refunds of any prepayments made under this Contract are subject to the below Cancellation Fee Schedule, regardless of cause, including but not limited to reasons related to room or roommate assignment.
8. CONDITION OF PREMISES: I agree to accept and maintain the unit in its fully furnished condition throughout the duration on this contract. All furnishings, fixtures and equipment are to be kept in clean, sanitary and working order. I shall return the premises in as good repair as when possession was taken, ordinary wear and tear excepted. If the premises are discovered to be in poor sanitary condition, in a manner that could lead to an unhealthy or unsafe environment for a suitemate or surrounding residents, I will be required to make the necessary changes and cleaning to the apartment at my expense. These changes must be later approved by the on-site maintenance supervisor. If I fail to make these changes within a reasonable amount of time, housekeeping services will be provided to perform the necessary cleaning. I shall then be responsible for the payment of the housekeeping fees. I am at no time permitted to change the paint color of my room or make any physical alterations to the unit. Such action shallresult in my being financially responsible for the work required to restore the unit to its original condition.
9. MAINTENANCE REPAIRS: Repairs necessitated by my negligence or that of my guests will be made by the University. Any such costs will be chargeable to me upon written notice from the University and shall be payable no later than the due date of the next installment of room charges following such notice. The University reserves the right to bill me up to 60 days after my departure from the premises for any damages caused by me or my guests.
10. HEATING AND WATER: The University shall furnish hot and cold water in fixtures provided by the University for that purpose and a reasonable amount ofheat, except when prevented from so doing by causes beyond the control of the University or when the apparatus providing water or heat is being repaired.
11. RESIDENT PROPERTY: The University reserves the right to restrict the use of my furniture or other items if such use necessitates the removal of any of the University's property from the unit or if such furniture or other items is a health or safety hazard or interferes with the provision of services to other residents of the building. Where my personal property is left on the premises for more than 30 days after I vacate upon expiration or termination of the contract, the University shall have the right, at its sole option and without further notice, to either (a) dispose of such property, or (b) charge a reasonable storage charge for any such property. Washers, dryers, dishwashers, ceiling fans, space heaters, large appliances, treadmills, either electrically or battery-operated or any other items that are considered by the University to be a safety or health hazard, are not permitted.
12. ACCESS TO PREMISES: The University through its proper representatives shall have free access at all reasonable hours to the premises for the purpose of insuring compliance with all laws, University regulations, and examining the residence for cleanliness and upkeep, or making alterations and repairs, as well as for the purpose of exhibiting the residency to prospective residents. The University agrees to make every effort, when practical to inform me in advance of any entry and examination; it being understood that nothing shall hinder the University's right to enter the residence during an emergency to protect life and property from imminent injury or to enter the premises to save me from serious inconvenience. Within 30 days of my move-out date, I agree to permit the on-site maintenance staff to make a pre-move-out inspection of the unit.
13. LIABILITY: The University does not assume any liability for the loss, damage or theft of any personal property; if protection from the possibility of such loss is desired, I should cover my own possessions with appropriate insurance. Further, I hereby release and hold the University harmless for any liability to me or anyone claiming through me and the University shall not be legally responsible in any respect for any loss or damage which I or anyone claiming through me may sustain by reason of: a) Any strike, lockout, work stoppage, or other disturbances, riot, civil commotion or Act of God affecting me or the demised premises or any resident therein; b) Theft or burglary in or about the premises; c) Fire, water, flood, rain, frost, snow, gas odors or fumes from any source whatever; d) Any injury to any person or damage to any property not caused by the University's direct negligence.
14.

Kildavannan Schoolhouse is a spacious 3 bedroom cottage situated on the Western side of the Isle of Bute. This cottage has recently been lovingly renovated to a very high standards with new appliances, heating, bathrooms and luxurious fabrics and colours making it incredibly warm and comfortable. The views are southerly over the sea and the situation is absolutely stunning and extremely desirable. The cottage is available to rent directly from the owner and it is much more of a 'home' than a 'rental cottage' filled with the comforts you would expect.
The Isle of Bute is easy to get to via Glasgow a short 35 minute ferry ride takes you to the capital Rothesay. Ferry times can be found by calling 01475 520521 or Rothesay 01700 502707.
The Isle of Bute offers many attractions including Mount Stuart and The Waverley Steam Ship, Rothesay Castle and the Pavillion. But is a haven for walkers and lovers of beaches and wildlife, fishing, exploring and generally relaxing.
A short shared driveway leads you up to a small gate through which you will find Kildavannan Schoolhouse and garden. The downstairs consists of a large living area with a window seat, television (freeview satellite) and fireplace. Fabrics such as colefax and fowler adorn the cushions, blinds and window seat and a handmade leather chair sits beside a very large sofa which will comfortably seat 6 adults. There is a conservatory with more beautiful views that seats four comfortably and can get extremely warm in the daytime. A large window opens up onto the lawn as does a door.
A recent review from a guest (before I became a member of this site!): We have just returned after spending two weeks at the School House on our honeymoon. The house is by far the best we've ever stayed in and has enough personal artifacts in to make it feel homely. It's huge living room and conservatory give you enough space to entertain yourself should the weather turn bad and the windows, in our opinion, have the best view on the whole island. As Etterick Bay and a smaller beach are so close it meant my 2 1/2 yr old was only ever 5 minutes from throwing pebbles into the sea! Without a doubt a home from home but with much better linen!! We hope to return in the near future.
Fantastic cottage and pictures do not do it justice. Wonderful service. Home away from home. Could not recommend it more
Kildavannan Schoolhouse has to be one of the most idyllic places to stay. The cottage itself is beautiful and very comfortably furnished with just the perfect mix of the contemporary and the practical.
It's location is just perfect for all ages, along a quiet little road with only about five other properties and with the most fantastic views across to the Isle of Arran and a gorgeous beach practically on its doorstep. I just love it and would unhesitatingly recommend the cottage to all.
The island itself has everything from lovely beaches, interesting flora and fauna, fantastic walks and cycle rides, plenty of history and very easy access.
When we stayed last July the age span was from 3 years to 74 years and it was excellent!!!
The cottage is a perfect for a relaxing get-away nestled by the sea and surrounded by green landscapes. It's well maintained and beautifully kept and the kitchen is well equipped and we especially liked the rotisserie in the oven. It's great just to relax but was perfectly placed for me as I went sea-kayaking, diving and cycling straight from the front door. A great place to mix luxury, rest and adventure.
We had the most wonderful time staying at Kildavannan School House.
The house is beautiful, situated in the most idyllic location & equipped with everything you could possibly need.
The views are stunning, looking out to sea & beyond from pretty much anywhere in the house! We felt like we were at the end of the world. So peaceful & the memory of the view sitting in the window seat in the lounge will never leave us.
Everything about the house screams comfort. The bedding, the bed, the sofa. Everything! Just wonderful.
We went in February so prepared ourselves for cold weather. It was a fantastic time to go. We all wrapped up warm & the children (6 & 3 years old) loved nothing more than collecting shells on the beach & flying the kite that we found in the shed! Then to Ettrick Bay tearooms for warming up & delicious homemade cakes (the lemon meringue cheesecake is something I am now going to try & recreate!), back to the house to light the log fire & settle down.
There is so much to do on the island. We visited Mount Stuart & walked for hours through the woodland & beautiful gardens, did a family horse/ pony trek, visited Scalpsie Bay & much, much more. But equally you don't need to fill your time with things to do when all you have to do is walk out of the front door & walk & take in the stunning scenery.
We couldn't recommend the house or the Isle of Bute highly enough. It was an amazing week of relaxation for the whole family. We adored every minute of it. And we are already plotting when we can return!
Situated at Etterick Bay the cottage was ideally placed for some of the best views on the entire Island looking across to Inchmarrnok and Aaron a photo could not do this view justice. Night time was equally as spectacular with a stunning milky way and a couple of lighthouses flashing far out at sea.
The cottage was immaculately clean and well presented with everything you could possibly need when it comes to chilling out and relaxing. It provided a great base to explore the island and was a pleasure to return to after long walks on the beaches or further away trips. Having 2 showers and a further bathroom meant our 3 teenagers didn't fight over who was going first....total bliss. Another major bonus was the tea room on Etterick Bay (10 mins walk) not only do they provide a range of hot/cold foods as well as drinks but the cakes were truly scrummy!
This cottage was not impersonal but a home away from home a very relaxing place which we have already recommended to friends.
PS: If you plan to visit Mount Stewart phone ahead so you can book to see extra parts of the house that you cannot get access to without booking.
Don't go there.....if you want an active outdoor holiday. You're bound to not leave the house, but just sit in the bay window to stare at the breathtaking views! That is: if you manage to get that far in the morning. The beds are so comfortable, you might just not want to get up!
The best house we have ever stayed in. The house is very comfortable, immaculate and tastefully decorated, containing everything you could possibly need - even binoculars to get a sharper look of the gannets diving into the sea.
The setting is stunning with panoramic views that include Arran and uninhabited Inchmarnock.
Bute is Bute-iful, too. Compact, great for walking and cycling with lots of deserted beaches (and lots of seals at Scalpsie Bay). And do go out to do the best walk on the island, the Kilchattan Bay Circular. Stunning scenery all the way round! While you are there: have tea at the Kilchattan Bay post office cum tearoom, run by a very friendly and enthusiastic young couple.
A big thanks to accommodating owner of the house Abigail and her fabulous help Una!!
Wir (2 Erwachsene, 2 Kinder 12/15) haben eine Woche in diesem wunderbaren Haus verbringen dürfen. Die Räume sind sehr geschmackvoll ausgestattet, die Betten von bester Qualität und die Abwicklung hat super geklappt.
Ein perfekter Urlaub, bei dem bereits die Buchung Freude bereitet hat. Abigail ist sehr bemüht und man freut sich vorab schon richtig auf die Zeit in diesem Haus. Vor Ort kümmert sich Una bestens um alles.
Wer gerne kocht, freut sich über diese Küche und den tollen Herd.
Auf der Insel selbst findet man Natur pur und quirliges Kleinstadtleben in Rothesay (außer montags). Auch die Landschaften sind sehr abwechslungsreich. Schottland in einer Miniausgabe. Meer, Berge, Ruhe und Seehunde (bei Ebbe bekamen wir oft bis zu 12 Stück auf einem Fleck zu sehen, die äußerst professionell in mit der Kamera flirteten).
Wir hatten eine phantastische Zeit und haben uns sehr, sehr wohl gefühlt. Ich glaube, wir haben selten so gut geschlafen wie dort.

Sharp Crochet Hook
Gifted by Sharp Crochet Hook
Reviewed by Melissa Conner
Blankets, gloves, socks, pillowcases, and even paper crafts can have a beautiful crocheted edge with the Sharp Crochet Hook tool.
The Sharp Crochet Hook is a great tool for anyone who loves a frilly soft edge to their various projects. This unique hook has a sharp point right above the hook, so it's easy to push it through fabric, burlap, and paper.
Included with this tool is a small book of 15 edging patterns, arranged from easy to advanced. Even the easiest of patterns looks like it was done by a pro! The "So Sweet" pattern, for example, is great for intermediate crocheters and would look beautiful on an afghan or a pair of gloves. For those who like a good challenge, the "Heaven in Bloom" pattern teaches you to create a beautiful border of crocheted flowers, which would look cute on a baby blanket or a spring lace tablecloth.
The Sharp Crochet Hook is a great tool for those who love to add a special touch to their projects. From fabric to paper, this hook takes your crafts "over the edge!"

An Unorthodox Way to Get Subsidies
Looking into the abuse of federal subsidies by Orthodox "libraries"
The Forward has a scintillating story today about the E-Rate program, a federally-funded subsidy program for libraries, which has been doling out wads of cash to Orthodox Jewish libraries that may not actually be libraries.
The plaque on the door at Kollel L'Horauh calls the room a library. As a library, it has received $135,000 in congressionally mandated library subsidies. But there's no librarian, and the room's "collection" consists of a subscription to a single digital database of Jewish books that is not even available on all the computers. In Brooklyn, not being a library is no barrier to receiving library subsidies. A Forward investigation has found that E-Rate, the federally backed library subsidy program, has committed $1.4 million to ultra-Orthodox religious institutions in Brooklyn that don't actually qualify as libraries.
Nine such groups have received an average of $161,000 in commitments from E-Rate since 2010 — more than twice the average amount committed to libraries in New York State during the same period.
It's a great read. Check it out.

Sabaru Car Shade
Reviewed By Barbara R (Bethany, OK) Reviewed for a 2015 Subaru Forester —5/21/2015 9:26 AM
I'm happy with the shade but the window shade I got for free needed a suction cup to hold it in place and none was included.
Reviewed By Christine M (Reno, NV) Reviewed for a 2015 Subaru Forester —5/15/2015 7:07 AM
The shade is really big but fits my 2015 Subaru Forester perfectly. It is just big to unroll and use, and takes up space when rolled up too. The quality is really nice but seems like it is overpriced by 50% or more. I do like that it covers up my whole front window though.

HI all, anyone got any ideas when the RC of Windows 7 is going to be available? I heard Today but parts of America are still behind, any ideas?

Posted May 4, 2009 at 10:24AM
but don't be in a rush - the download will be available until the end of June.
If you're running Windows Vista you can upgrade directly to the Windows 7 Release Candidate, but if you're running the previously-available beta version of Windows 7 you'll need to do a fresh install. This means that you must backup all your data files before starting the install, and of course you'll have to reinstall all your software applications afterwards.
It's a step that requires careful planning before you start. make sure you have all your software installation CDs and product keys, and of course you'll need to check to see that the software will run in Windows 7. You should also investigate the hardware driver situation, otherwise you might end up with a shiny new Windows 7 RC installation and no functioning printer or scanner.

if anyone has an HP all-in-one printer, and needs to get the driver working in Windows 7, I may be able to help with a workaround.
I'm not going to post details now, in case the Release Candidate has an updated driver in its database (which I doubt), but if you need help, post here, and I'll see what I can do.

Q. I have a question about 'Paradise'. Where is it said to be located? ie., middle of the earth??? What is it's relevance and its role now and in future?
Where Do Non-Believers Go When They Die?
Q. If the spirit of a believer goes to be in the presence of the Lord when he/she passes. Where does a non-believer go when he/she passes?
More On The Body, Soul And Spirit
Q. What constitutes the body, soul and spirit. Does the body include the subconscious? Is the soul your personality? Where does the Holy Spirit reside? Is your spirit your conscience? What goes to Heaven or Hell, your soul, your spirit or both?
Can My Grandmother Still Be Saved?
Q. Would you tell me if there is any biblical basis for my belief that prayers for the softening of a person's heart who has already died will be heard from God and accepted? My understanding and view is that God is Lord of the Past, Present and Future; that he exists beyond my comprehension, over and above any time constraints. Because I view him thus, I believe that my prayers for a softening of my late grandmother's heart that will lead to her salvation combined with the belief that God desires all to be saved can lead to an intervention in her life by the Lord such that her belief will turn towards him. I've asked other Christians what they think about praying for dead loved one's salvation and have been told by some that 'what's done is done and you can't pray for someone who is already dead' , but others have agreed with my view and think anything is possible with God. Biblically, which view is correct?
More On The Soul And Spirit
Q. Some Christians believe that the spirit and soul go to heaven at the time of physical death. Others say that the spirit goes to heaven but the soul sleeps until the resurrection. I find this a confusing issue as I believe that the spirit and soul are in inseparable and both go to heaven. Is there Bible passages that clarify this?
The Case For Eternal Punishment
A Bible Study by Jack Kelley
"And they will go out and look upon the dead bodies of those who rebelled against me; their worm will not die, nor will their fire be quenched, and they will be loathsome to all mankind." (Isaiah 66:24)
Is Hell Being Diminished?
Q. I had always thought that if you accepted Jesus as your savior you were saved and went to Heaven to be with Him for Eternity, and if you rejected Him you would spend eternity In Hell ( Lake of Fire). But a lot of preachers today say that if you are not saved you will be separated from God forever which is true but not complete in my opinion and some of the young people I am talking with say, "So what? I am separated from Him now and it is no big deal." Other pastors say you will suffer eternal death and again they say, "So what? A little pain and then oblivion." Will you help and once again I request that you tell me if I am wrong.
Extending Life, Follow Up
Q. In your response to the question about Extending Life By Artificial Means you said "Keeping people alive by artificial means is not God's idea…". I can agree with your reasoning, but I don't find any support for your view in the Bible. What about people who have, for example, diabetes or other life threatening diseases? Would you still say that these people should not use any medication?
Extending Life By Artificial Means
Q. I have often wondered why God allows people to linger here when they are unable to stay alive unless they are on machines and drugs . My wife died from cancer and the doctors were keeping her alive with drugs and machines . When they told us that, we had them remove all life support and she went home to be with our Lord 6 hrs later. When there is no hope, why is their going home to the Lord delayed?
Where Is Paradise?
Q. Recently my sister went to be with the Lord after a long battle with Brain Cancer. My family are true believers of God and worship Him as our Personal Savior. After dinner one evening, my sister's children asked if their mom was in heaven and my fiancé said that she was in a place called "Paradise." He said that is where you go before you go to heaven. I've never heard of this. Can you please offer some answers that I can share with them?

President Barack Obama addresses the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) Policy Conference opening plenary session in Washington, Sunday, March 4, 2012. (AP Photo/Cliff Owen)
WASHINGTON (AP) -- It's official: President Barack Obama will clinch the Democratic nomination for president Tuesday, ending a low-key primary race that many Americans probably didn't realize was happening.
Obama is certain to reach the 2,778 delegates he needs to secure his party nod for a second time when five states vote on Tuesday. He has won almost every delegate so far, with a few exceptions in some Southern states that won't vote Democratic in the fall anyway.
But don't expect a big party, or any party. Campaign officials say they are focused on the general election, as they have been for months, and the all-but-certain Republican nominee, Mitt Romney.
All this is a stark difference from four years ago, when Obama was still in an epic primary battle against Hillary Rodham Clinton.
