Hi Susan,
Yes, you know I noticed your new layout and am really liking it. Thanks for answering my question about the header and I can't wait until you show us the Galveston Home that used to be yours. Please don't leave us waiting for too long. Did you take all of your furniture when you left or did you leave it and sell some of it with the house, 'cause they are some seriously gorgeous chairs on your header!!! Do you think it's healthy we have this obsession with chairs???? Anyway, gorgeous Autumn day here so I'd better make the most of it. Good luck to everyone in the giveaway in the U.S.A. You lucky things!!!!
Take care Susan,

As a kid growing up in Loudonville, N.Y., Nathaniel Bette remembers being intrigued by the house next door. Built in 1840, it was older than the other homes in the neighborhood, with a sweeping view of the Helderberg Mountains. It had a pedigree; its previous owners included a Civil War general, a state assemblyman and several generations of a local brewing dynasty. The house even had a name: Prospect Place.
But when the house came on the market in late 2009, it had seen better days. "It was a big mess, kind of an eyesore," recalls Bette, now a contractor. However, Bette was determined to restore it to its former glory, while also enhancing it to accommodate modern living. "I wanted to salvage a nice piece of history," he says.
For help, he turned to a team of local designers and to Vanguard, the volunteer arm of the Albany Symphony Orchestra. For 31 years, Vanguard has partnered annually with local design professionals to transform an area home into a designer showcase.
The Vanguard committee knew Prospect Place was a perfect candidate for this year's fundraiser. "It's an incredible house," says chairwoman Barbara Richer. "Folks really enjoy historic homes."
And the fact that it really needed help was an added bonus. "It was pretty close to destruction," Richer says. "To bring it back from the brink – to add color, life and joy – has been remarkable."
Originally built as a summer cottage, the house was structurally sound, but in poor shape cosmetically, and its kitchen and bathrooms were long overdue for an update. Bette's company, Empire Construction Group, put on a large addition that expanded the kitchen and added a mudroom and screen porch.
"The biggest challenge was getting a good master plan that covered all the bases: How do you preserve the architecture, not take anything away that has historical value, but still make it livable for a 21st-century family?" says Bette.
About two dozen designers and decorative artists volunteered to tackle specific rooms and spaces in the home, and Sherwin-Williams signed on as a major sponsor, donating the interior coatings for every room.
Paint's Possibilities
"Sherwin-Williams is responsible for all the colors and faux treatments in the house," says Richer. "It's a terrific representation of the different things you can do with paint."
In the living/dining room, for example, Richard Bresette, an artist, decorative painter and interior designer, RichArt Interiors, used an ancient faux technique called "frottage" to bring warmth and depth to a formerly chilly space.
"I wanted relaxed, casual formality," he says. "We've all been in those intimidating spaces," and he was determined that the redesigned living area would be anything but. He had picture molding added to the walls, in "a nod to the period," he says, then used different paint colors and textures to define and warm up those areas.
Using Ancestral Gold (SW 6407) and Blonde (SW 6128) as a starting point, Bresette added universal tints to both colors to achieve a custom combination of light olive green and gold. Then he used a metallic silver [Sherwin-Williams Faux ImpressionsTM tinted with Sticks and Stones, (SW 7503)] and a touch of raw umber pigment "to age it." Crumpled newsprint, applied to the wet metallic top coat, created a marbled effect. "It's a very soothing and relaxing palette," he says.
Upstairs, Shannon McGivern, decorative products specialist for Sherwin-Williams, also used Faux Impressions to create a distinctive look for the Jack-and-Jill bathroom. Her biggest challenge was creating a modern bathroom that still complemented the traditional, Federal-style rooms (a women's study and a guest bedroom) on either side.
McGivern's design combines metallic glass tiles (currently right on trend) with classic elements such as white subway tiles and an antique clawfoot tub. Then she painted the walls a base color, Griffin (SW 7026), "a bronze-y dark brown," and finished with a tinted metallic glaze (Griffin SWF 309). "It's all about the shimmer," she says.
Bette took an active role in vetting the designs for every room and space. "We told the designers we wanted it to be timeless, not trendy," he said. "We wanted to preserve history, but we didn't want it to be a museum. We want someone to actually enjoy it and live in it, and not let it fall into a derelict condition like it was before."
Bette's precision even resulted in a new paint color: "Prospect Place White," a warm, creamy white that Sherwin-Williams created just for this project, based on what Bette wanted for the woodwork, Richer says.
The new hue already has a strong local following. "It's enormously popular with designers," adds Richer.
The house is currently on the market for $2.21 million. Early response to the restoration has been very favorable, but for Bette, whose parents still live next door, the best compliment came from one of the previous owner's grandchildren: "He said, 'Thanks for saving it,'" Bette says. "They're really happy with it." And so is he. "I had a good time doing this one."

Fully-functional battle tank
Hello all. I haven't been around much lately, and here's why: I have been working on a truly massive NXT project. It is a fully-functional model of a tank (track driving (2 NXT motors), rotating turret (3th NXT motor) with elevating high velocity brick cannon (aimed by laser) (technic motors controlled by Mindsensors' MTRMX-Nx). It uses an NXT, a lot of homebrew electronics, and a PSP-Nx as remote control (by Mindsensors).

Gas usage spiked in houses before recent explosions but measuring is difficult, expensive
September 24, 2010 in The Daily Republic
It's difficult to know if the kind of house explosions that killed a Menno woman and severely injured a Mitchell man this summer could have been prevented.
But there were hints that such horrific incidents were about to happen. Shortly after the explosions, NorthWestern Energy released information showing gas usage in each home spiked between the last reading and explosions. Continue Reading

Although depression may occur only one time during your life, usually people have multiple episodes of depression. During these episodes, symptoms occur most of the day, nearly every day and may include:
For some people, depression symptoms are so severe that it's obvious something isn't right. Other people feel generally miserable or unhappy without really knowing why.
Depression affects each person in different ways, so symptoms caused by depression vary from person to person. To clarify the type of depression you have, your doctor may add information to your depression diagnosis called a specifier. Specifiers include having depression with specific features, such as:
Common symptoms of depression in children and teens are similar to those of adults, but there can be some differences.
Depression is not a normal part of growing older and it should never be taken lightly. Unfortunately, depression often goes undiagnosed and untreated in older adults, and they may feel reluctant to seek help. Symptoms of depression may be different or less obvious in older adults, including:
If you feel depressed, make an appointment to see your doctor as soon as you can. Depression often gets worse if it isn't treated. Untreated depression can lead to other mental and physical health problems or troubles in other areas of your life. Feelings of depression can also lead to suicide.
If you're reluctant to seek treatment, talk to a friend or loved one, a health care professional, a faith leader, or someone else you trust.
If you or someone you know is having suicidal thoughts, get help right away. Here are some steps you can take:
If you think you may hurt yourself or attempt suicide, call 911 or your local emergency number immediately.
If you have a loved one who is in danger of committing suicide or has made a suicide attempt, make sure someone stays with that person. Call 911 or your local emergency number immediately. Or, if you think you can do so safely, take the person to the nearest hospital emergency room.

Rated 3.9 out of 5Â by 76 reviewers.
Rated 1 out of 5Â by Snooty Super dissapointed!! Let me first say that I LOVE freepeoples clothing most times... I just received the mad cool skirt BUT its totally NOT so "MAD COOL" the fabric is extremely cheap and not flattering. I'm starting to see alot of decline in the fabrics that are being used on the line. It is a UTTER dissapointment. I am taking this skirt back to the store asap... 2.14.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by aveline True maxi skirt <3 LOVE this skirt. I own many maxis in many brands, styles, and fabrics, and this is my favorite summertime skirt for everyday errands, lunch dates, and shopping outings. A true maxi length skirt that reaches the floor. I am 5'6"/34C/130lbs with an average build, and I bought a small. It's roomy but I like it that way. Love the pockets! Regarding length: I noticed many of the previous reviews mentioned that the skirt is too long for their various heights. But you'll notice that the hem of the skirt is not finished - rather, it has a raw edge. This means you can cut off as much of the skirt as you see fit to make it the length you want - very versatile! You can DIY even if you don't have tailoring experience. Just make sure to use very sharp scissors (fabric scissors or sheers would work best), and if you're not good at eyeballing accurately while cutting, it wouldn't hurt to measure with a ruler/measuring tape and mark with tailor's chalk where you want to cut so that your new hem is even. Wear the highest heel you think you'll ever pair with this skirt when measuring/marking. Better to cut off too little (and just try again) than too much. Then leave the edge raw like it is designed it be. Takes 15 minutes, max! Or if this scares you, take the skirt to a tailor, especially if you want the edge finished (or to your bestie with the wicked tailoring skills!). Others have noted that washing and drying in the dryer has helped with the long hem as well. If you alter the skirt to the length you like, DO NOT dry in the dryer! It will shrink and you'll be left with a midi! :( I cut off about 3 inches and was pleased with the result - still nearly skims the floor with my 5-inch summer wedges. Very nice, FP. ;) 7.3.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by jennfl22 Very Mad Cool Skirt I love this skirt! I am 6'1 and it hits the floor. It is the perfect length for tall girls. You can dress it up or down. This skirt will get a lot of wear for work and going out. I am very glad I purchsed this item. 2.24.2012
Rated 2 out of 5Â by teatime2 low quality material I gave this order a lot of thought and read the reviews and figured I needed to see for myself, so I ordered it. I ended up returning it because of the quality of the material. I like the idea of a big, comfy, billowy skirt but could not justify spending $90 on something that I considered to be very low quality. it was VERY long, which would be okay, but I could also not justify having to cut something with a scissors that cost so much. I ended up returning it. I would probably buy this skirt but at less than half of the cost FP priced it at - just not worth almost $100 for the quality. 11.6.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by CaBohoMama Loved but too big :( i loved this skirt so much and wish it had worked. It was so soft and it laid perfectly. However I got the xs and it was still much too big around my waist. I tried rolling a couple times but then it laid oddly and and was too bulky on my waist. Maybe FP can make xxs or petite sizes for us petite FP lovers? However if it weren't for being too big I would have bought more colors so I still do recommend this amazing maxi! 12.26.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by SaraHermosa Size down, and be prepared to hem I'm 6'1 and this skirt is long on ME, so be ready. Its very comfy and casual, so its nice to have in any color. Just be ready for the length, its definitely a raw hem type of situation! 11.26.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by tkp Cute! I ordered this skirt in the size S and the size M. I wear them both pulled up to my waist, so that the pockets are where pockets are supposed to be. There is only a small difference in the waistband between the S and the M, I can wear both comfortably. The size S, when worn high on my waist, just brushes the floor (I'm 5'9) whereas the M is a few inches longer. Also, the S fits more like the picture of the black skirt (more narrow throughout) and the M fits more like how the taupe is pictured. They are really cute and cool. I love maxis, and love that FP make them long enough for taller girls to wear. A part of me wishes the material was sturdier or thicker, but that's okay. I still love it, and have yet to find a skirt similar elsewhere. 1.15.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Fpchelsie Growing on me :) When I got this skirt in the mail and tried it on, I have to admit, I was slightly disappointed. The fabric is extremely light and not very substantial, and it is so so so big! I am usually a small (5'9" 34-29-34), and the small was too big. BUT after I put it in the dryer and shrunk it down a little, it fits perfect :) It is super comfy and versatile, and it is really starting to grow on me. The design is awesome as well. Only thing.. I think the fabric should be thicker for the price of the skirt. 1.27.2014

Cars Land
Kids, Tweens, Teens, Adults
Dark, Loud, Small Drops, Thrill Rides
Accessibility and Other Information - Opens Dialog
FASTPASS, Rider Switch, Single Rider Line
Kick the fun into overdrive on this auto race attraction that features familiar characters, fantastic scenery and "wheel" thrills!
Stanley's Oasis
Before you hit the open road, stroll through the original settlement of Radiator Springs, a lovely town that began as the Comfy Cavern Motor Court.
See how Stanley capitalized on a natural cold spring and built a series of ingenious attractions, like a "pull up and fill-up" coolant station—a building made entirely out of empty oil bottles.
Ornament Valley and Radiator Springs
Board a 6-person car for a seemingly peaceful journey through Ornament Valley. Drive past the plunging Radiator Falls waterfall and head toward the start line at Radiator Springs.
Mater's Mischief
Mater is recruiting newcomers to participate in one of his favorite activities, tractor tipping! Take a brief detour through the fields to see this screwy spectacle.
Many familiar faces—Lightning McQueen, Doc Hudson, Mater, Sally, Luigi, Guido, Mack and Ramone—are eager to welcome you to the big race and help along the way.
Ya Auto Not Look Fuelish
It's almost race time—gotta look good! Fine-tune your car at either Luigi's Casa Della Tires or Ramone's House of Body Art. You'll want to ride multiple times to see both.
Once you're set, roll over to the start line—and get ready, get set…
Come side-by-side with your competition. Your car is pitted against another for a friendly race for first place at the checked flag.
Zip over hills, zoom around high-banked turns, and cruise down camelback straightaways past spectacular red-rock formations.
While there is only one winner, everyone is sure to have a great time. Just like in the Cars movie, the focus is on the journey, not the finish line!
The towering Cadillac Range mountains serve as a majestic backdrop for Radiator Springs Racers.
Car aficionados will notice that the 6 mountain peaks resemble the tail fins of classic Cadillac models from 1957 to 1962. The mountains are inspired by the iconic Cadillac Ranch public art installation created by Ant Farm. Cadillac Ranch is located along Route 66 near Amarillo, Texas.
Radiator Springs Racers is in the recently added Cars Land, part of the expanded and reimagined Disney California Adventure Park.
In Cars Land, discover how Disney and Pixar stories and characters are brought to life through amazing attractions, entertainment and dining!
Be sure to visit the other recently added area, Buena Vista Street that captures the spirit of Los Angeles from 1923.

Capt. Chester Creamer said Apalachicola police officers Sgt. Wesley Creamer and Officer Ginger Creamer discovered the body of Fasbenner dead in the front yard of a home at 277 Timothy Simmons Road at about 9:51 p.m. on Thursday.
Creamer said Fasbenner, a 2012 graduate of Franklin County High School, had been shot once in the chest by a bullet from a .22 caliber rifle fired by Ronald Joseph Page, 24, a resident of the home.
Chester Creamer said no one has been arrested, nor any charges filed, in the shooting. He said the 911 call notifying authorities had been placed by Page.
"The case is actively being investigated by the sheriff's office and the state prosecutor's office. It is too premature to give out details of the case at this point. We're actively investigating it," he said.
Chester Creamer confirmed that another female also was present at the Timothy Simmons Road residence, but did not provide further details.

This Sri Lankan family holiday will take you to the teardrop shaped island in the Indian Ocean which is a truly magical place. The legacy of its position on the sea route to the East is evident for all to see; from the Moslem fishing villages which saw the passing of early Arab traders, to the several common surnames which tell of Portuguese occupation and the neat hill villages left by the British. This cultural crossroads has much more besides - all crammed into an area less than one third the size of Britain. There are ruined cities and rock-top forts to explore, strangely colourful birds, encounters with elephants and other wildlife and some of the world's best beaches. Sri Lanka tours have something for everyone and never fail to enchant visitors.
Our tailor made adventure holidays will truly inspire and delight the senses and will live in your memory for ever.more info

The collection is divided into twenty parts or books, mirroring a similar practice in collections of Chinese poems of the time; this number was followed in most later collections. Unlike later collections, however, the parts of the Man'yōshū are not organized into topics or ordered chronologically. The collection contains 265 chōka (long poems), 4,207 tanka (short poems), one tanrenga (short connecting poem), one bussokusekika (poems on the Buddha's footprints at Yakushi-ji in Nara), four kanshi (Chinese poems), and 22 Chinese prose passages. There is no preface: the format of prefacing official collections, such as the Kokin Wakashū, developed later.
It is standard to regard the Man'yōshū as a particularly Japanese work. This does not mean that the poems and passages of the collection differed starkly from the scholarly standard (in Yakamochi's time) of Chinese literature and poetics. Certainly many entries of the Man'yōshū have a continental tone, earlier poems having Confucian or Taoist themes and later poems reflecting on Buddhist teachings. Yet, the Man'yōshū is singular, even in comparison with later works, in choosing primarily Yamato themes, extolling Shintō virtues of and . In addition, the language of many entries of the Man'yōshū exerts a powerful sentimental appeal to readers:
[T]his early collection has something of the freshness of dawn. [...] There are irregularities not tolerated later, such as hypometric lines; there are evocative place names and []; and there are evocative exclamations such as kamo, whose appeal is genuine even if incommunicable. In other words, the collection contains the appeal of an art at its pristine source with a romantic sense of venerable age and therefore of an ideal order since lost.
The collection is customarily divided into four periods. The earliest dates to prehistoric or legendary pasts, from the time of Yūryaku (r.?456–?479) to those of the little documented Yōmei (r.585–587), Saimei (r.594–661), and finally Tenji (r.668–671) during the Taika Reforms and the time of Fujiwara no Kamatari (614–669). The second period covers the end of the seventh century, coinciding with the popularity of Kakinomoto no Hitomaro, one of Japan's greatest poets. The third period spans 700–c.730 and covers the works of such poets as Yamabe no Akahito, Ōtomo no Tabito and Yamanoue no Okura. Akahito chiefly among them is resolutely Japanese; the rest freely incorporate and adapt Continental elements. The fourth period spans 730–760 and includes the work of the last great poet of this collection, the compiler Ōtomo no Yakamochi himself, who not only wrote many original poems but also edited, updated and refashioned an unknown number of ancient poems.
In addition to its artistic merits, the Man'yōshū is important for using one of the earliest Japanese writing systems, the cumbersome man'yōgana. Though it was not the first use of this writing system, which was also used in the earlier Kojiki (712), it was influential enough to give the writing system its name: "the kana of the Man'yōshū". This system uses Chinese characters in a variety of functions: their usual ideographic or logographic senses; to represent Japanese syllables phonetically; and sometimes in a combination of these functions. The use of Chinese characters to represent Japanese syllables was in fact the genesis of the modern syllabic kana writing systems, being simplified forms (hiragana) or fragments (katakana) of the man'yōgana.
Julius Klaproth was the first to publish any translation of Taika era Japanese poetry in the West. Donald Keene explained in a preface to the Nippon Gakujutsu Shinkōkai edition of the Man'yōshū:
The Man'yōshū has been accepted in the Japanese Translation Series of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).

This may be searched in the following ways; by location (name of building, street, town or village etc), building type (a list of building types used by the Archive is available within the catalogue), personal or corporate name and subject (a list of preferred subject key-words used by the Archive is available within the catalogue). In addition, the printed matter section of the database may be searched by publication title. The database will provide an indication of the various categories of material – archival (including drawings), photographic or printed – that the Archive holds for each search, and particular details on each of these holdings.
It is intended that the catalogue will be available on this site in due course.
In addition to the database, other finding aids include the card catalogue (in the process of being phased-out) and individual collection lists.

Unfortunately, at least so far, there isn't any kind of official certification given to tattoo artists that complete their education. There are no formal schools, and no diplomas. There are many "scratchers" out there that are tattooing without the benefit of any kind of training, and as long as they are licensed in their state, it is perfectly legal. Even illegal tattooists get plenty of business. That is why it is so important to be sure these other guidelines are being strictly followed to be sure you will be receiving quality.

Wool Recliner Cover 7 7
cheap quality This chair cover is not quality, needs to come in other colors and needs arm covers and the elastic will eventually have to be replaced. Its definitetly NOT worth the price. It is for my husband's chair and it does help save the chair's fabric. March 6, 2015
Great fit quality product Odd sized recliner and was worried about the fitting. Covers completely and doesn't shed. June 25, 2014
this item has great feel only have one dislike about the wool cover is it is kind of hard to keep in place.other than that it seems ok!! December 4, 2013
This product is good for th price. I would order again The only fault is the band that holds them to the furniture they need to be stronger and wider. There needs to be a way to anchor the pad to the bottom of the recliner in back. August 20, 2013
Wool Recliner cover is worth it. I have tried cheaper, mock wool covers. Not only do they look absolutely ugly, they do nothing except look ugly. This cover is wool. It is plush, it looks good and feels wonderful. It definitely is worth it. The piece for the bottom of my recliner leg support does not fit on my recliner, however the rest fits fine. I do wish this came in a dyed golden brown color. Other than that, I love it. March 7, 2013
top of cover should hang longer over the back of the chair Loved this product but it doesn't hang long enough over the back of the chair to keep the cover from slipping January 8, 2013
Wool recliner cover great idea for nursing home resident. My fathers spends a considerable amount of time sitting because he is a nursing home resident. We purchased this product hoping that it would help him be more comfortabled and it worked. We recently purchased a new recliner for him and he still chooses to use the recliner cover. I was impressed with the quality and construction of the cover. I placed my order via phone and received two covers instead of the one I ordered December 10, 2012

Former trooper gets suspended sentence for double assaultsBy Susan Smallheer
Staff Writer | February 20,2013BRATTLEBORO A former Vermont State Police trooper received a suspended sentence of six to 12 months after he pleaded no contest Tuesday to charges that while on duty he assaulted two men who used his canoe without permission last year.
Eric J. Howley, 40, of Wilmington is suffering from long-standing post-traumatic stress disorder, triggered in part by his service during Tropical Storm Irene, his longtime psychologist testified Tuesday.
During the storm the former trooper was assigned to the case of a woman swept away by the raging Deerfield River in Wilmington.
Howleys home was also destroyed during Irene, said therapist David Mellinger, who said he first diagnosed Howley with PTSD in 2006.
The assaults, which took place at Lake Raponda in Wilmington on Easter Sunday, came almost eight months after Irene, which devastated Wilmington and other areas of southern Vermont.
Another trooper, who was there with Howley, was unable to stop him from assaulting the two men. Howley had reported his canoe as stolen to Wilmington police earlier that day.
The confrontational nature of the incident over the canoe triggered the PTSD, and Howley has no memory of assaulting the two men, his therapist said.
The April 8, 2012 incident wasnt the first time Howley was involved in allegations of excessive use of force. In September 2005, Howley was one of two troopers and two other officers responding to an incident with a drunken guest at a wedding reception in Arlington. The man ended up with a concussion, a fractured sinus and five broken teeth.
While Howley and other officers were never charged in that case, the state settled a lawsuit with the victim in the Arlington case for $135,000, and Howley remained on the force.
Judge David Suntag said in sentencing Howley on Tuesday that the ex-trooper had injured every Vermont police officer by his actions, and he urged him to speak with other fellow officers about the dangers of not addressing post-traumatic stress disorder.
The judge said the case deserved a greater level of scrutiny, and said he was concerned about the public perception of the case.
This affects every police officer in the state, Suntag said.
As a condition of the plea agreement, Howley agreed not to seek employment again as a police officer or security guard, and he will be on probation for an additional two years. Suntag also ordered him to continue mental health counseling.
Howley has applied for disability benefits as a result of the post-traumatic stress disorder.
Mellinger said Howleys PTSD stemmed from events in Kuwait and Guantanamo Bay, where Howley served in the military police, as well as an incident in Texas. Mellinger never described the events and Howleys attorney, Brian Marthage of Bennington, refused to as well.
Mellinger said Howleys illness, which was never disclosed to the state police, was aggravated by Howleys assignments as a trooper during Tropical Storm Irene. The woman who was swept away, Ivana Taseva, 20, of Macedonia, was later found drowned.
Howley, who appeared in court informally dressed instead of his usual suit and tie, didnt take the stand Tuesday.
But he answered in a clear and steady voice to a long string of questions posed by Suntag about whether he understood the plea agreement, and whether he accepted the changes dictated by the judge.
He told the judge he felt blessed by the help he received from Mellinger and Dr. Aaron York, a psychiatrist with the Veterans Administration Hospital in White River Junction, where he recently started receiving treatment as well.
Suntag said that if someone had assaulted a police officer as Howley had injured the two men, it would likely have involved jail time.
Howley had been a member of the state police for 7½ years, he told the judge. Howley resigned last year after the incidents, but before he was charged with the assaults.
Howley entered the plea after protracted negotiations between his attorney and the Vermont attorney generals office after Suntag said Tuesday he wanted a longer period of supervision for Howley and a provision that he not seek work as a police officer or security officer again.
Assistant Attorney General Matthew Levine told Suntag that the two men Howley admitted assaulting Mark Ellison, 21, of West Wardsboro, and Anton Pike, 21, of Wilmington supported the plea agreement.
Levine said the plea agreement meant the state could save the cost of a trial, as well as bringing one of the victims back to Vermont from Colorado, where he now lives. The attorney generals office prosecuted the case, after a special investigation, because of a conflict with the Windham County states attorneys office, which had worked with Howley in the past.
Levine had said Pike and Ellison have an attorney, and that both the state and Howley expect a lawsuit from the two men.
According to court records, Howley pushed Ellison down on the ground, where Ellison hit his head on a rock. He had to seek medical attention. Howley pushed Pike onto the hood of his cruiser.
Marthage said after the three-hour hearing that Howley never disclosed he had PTSD to state police.
I think theres a culture that you dont reveal it, said Marthage, who added that many police view PTSD as a weakness.

Thanks everyone for your replies on my last posting here, this is such a great community! I'm so inspired by all of you to keep learning more about veganism.
I'm definitely planning to supplement with vitamin B12, I'm curious to know if only soymilk is the non-dairy milk that has this? can other non-dairy milk like almond, coconut also have B12?
And just wondering how many of you use soy-milk, and if you really feel there's truth to all the negative hype about soy. I can't see how non-GMO soymilk would be bad especially compared to dairy milk.
But a pet peeve of mine is, WHY on earth do coffee shops charge you extra for the soy? Is it really that expensive for them like starbucks, to buy it in the first place? I am not a coffee drinker, but I like tea and admit I like my tea-lattes.
I just posted the other day that I was surprised to find that one brand of almond milk claimed to provide 50% of our B12 and another brand had none.
So, yes, you need to read labels.

Yes, read labels, some soy milks even may have less B12 than others. Whether soy milk is better or worse is a matter of opinion and individuals - for me, soymilk, tofu, tempeh (the larger quantity all at once type soy) is too much for me to handle without having a bit of trouble (PMS like symptoms no matter when it is - not good). Yes, it probably does cost cafes more to buy soy milk. (1) compare the cost of soy milk vs. dairy milk at the grocery store - it costs more per unit usually. I did a quick look at a national 'warehouse club' place's website - a gallon of dairy milk (128 oz.) is about $11. A half gallon of brand name soy milk (64 oz.) is about $8, thus a gallon would be about $16. So, dairy is about 8 cents per oz. where the soy is about 12 cents per oz. Significant difference - more than just half a cent.
(2) how many people ask for soy vs. dairy? lower volume means they don't buy in bulk, which means they don't get as low a price as they otherwise might (and which they likely get buying dairy in quantity).
Oh, I see - I guess I assume that more people drink soy than they actually do! I think it's at least more popular than it used to be, but yes...I personally find that bringing my own milk in a thermas, THEN ordering the tea, is so much better than paying the extra for soy. And personally speaking I have enjoyed almond and coconut milk a lot, so maybe I'll just stick to those.
Unless, anyone feels that soy milk itself has a lot of nutrition / benefits?
Also, are there any brands of soy milk you recommend specifically that are not GMO? I find that to be the most important thing, at least I think!
It's good to hear that some almond milks are fortified with calcium, B12, etc.
I imagine if you stick with certified organic soymilk, it shouldn't be GMO (as far as I know, anyway).
As far as I know, any "milk" made from conventionally-grown soybeans (ie: non-organic) WILL be GMO, so this is one area to go organic if you want to avoid that.
As noted by Sarah, above, I believe organic soy milk is non GMO. I've found it best to look for unsweetened non-dairy milk, e.g., unsweetened almond or soy milk so as not to be adding something unneeded and unwanted to my diet. In Canada, the So Nice brand of organic soy milk is available unsweetened and is very good. My favourite non-dairy milk is an organic unsweetened almond milk sold under the PC Organics label (Loblaws, Valumart, Superstore, some No Frills stores, etc.). It tends to blend well with coffee and tea without adding another flavour that drowns out the coffee flavour. Often sold out. I think one of the main differences between soy and almond milk is the amount of protein--more in soy, much less in almond milk. This doesn't concern me as I believe I get enough protein from other sources as a vegan.

CENTRAL CITY, Iowa - Preparations continue as the Linn County community of Central City awaits the crest of the rising Wapsipinicon River.
Central City Fire Chief James O'Leary said the city is preparing for record with the Wapsipinicon River expected to reach never before seen levels.
O'Leary said the river has previously reached a record level of 22.1 feet. However, he said Wednesday morning that the Linn County Emergency Management Agency has warned him that the river could go one to three feet above that level.
"If we get above that number, now we're in a territory where we don't know (what's going to happen)," he said. "We've never been to this level before."
O'Leary said the city has not had any flooding problems yet, but reinforcements are being lined up to prepare for flooding. O'Leary said the Iowa Department of Transportation has delivered thousands of them from Iowa City after their flooding earlier this month.
Flooding typically occurs when the river hits 18 feet. The city is not considering mandatory evacuations at this time. "Right now, we're not moving anybody until we know what's going to happen," he said.
People across town are loading up sandbags to protect their homes.
Central City's Fire Chief James
"We are basically just in prep mode, because right now we have no idea what will happen," Chief O'Leary said.
The city doesn't have an official National Weather Service Flood guage to track the river. They do, however, have a gauge they use to tell how high the river is. O'Leary said his crew was predicting the river could reach 22 feet..
At this point firefighters know, all they can do is keep working to keep everyone in the city safe. "That's our biggest thing. We don't want anybody hurt," said Chief O'Leary
City leaders expect the Wapsipinicon to crest sometime on Thursday.

Having not done this myself, I just want to be clear. I could install the distro of my choice to a partition on my Hard-Drive. And not install grub. That way I can still book directly to windows. However I could install grub onto my USB stick and have it so that if the USB stick is inserted on boot, it will give me the grub boot menu letting me pick either windows or linux?
Posted 18 January 2013 - 01:30
That is correct. Super Grub2 Disk offers an easy way to do auto-detection of installed operating systems, but you could just as easily have a GRUB installation on a flash drive with a custom menu allowing OS selection. Although there are many variations of methods to accomplish this, everything other than the aforementioned Super Grub 2 Disk require some work in terminal an a minimal working knowledge of GRUB menu scripting. Since most people don't want to do this, as it creates more of a hassle, no distro that I know of makes it "1-click" or "2-click" simple to accomplish. That's why I didn't recommend anything else to the OP. Based on your other posts, I believe that you would be able to pull off a more elegant solution. Let me know if you want me to provide such instructions.

Yep. When installing arch, do NOT make a seperate boot partition on your hard drive, make that on the USB as ext2 and mount that as /mnt/boot, so eg;
mount /dev/sda2 /mnt
mount /dev/sdf1 /mnt/boot
then in the grub commands, use the sdf or USB drive, I'm not sure if you even need to provide the drive anymore or if grub picks it up from what device /boot is mounted on.
Posted 19 January 2013 - 00:29
it will protect access to Linux if the USB stick is not present.

It's been a long time coming, but the 2013 red snapper season will open in the
Because Florida's Game & Freshwater Fish Commission refused to go along with federal regulations—which they said were based on grossly underestimating snapper populations—Florida, like several other Gulf states is being penalized by the National Marine Fisheries Service with a shortened season in federal waters, those more than 9 nautical miles from shore. Unfortunately for anglers, though there's fair snapper fishing inside the 9NM line, the great fishing now available is mostly beyond it in deeper water.
The season will be just 26 days long in federal waters, closing on June 27, at 12:01 a.m., local time.
Federal regulators say the rules are for the good of the fish—and ultimately of the fishermen.
But in fact, most experienced reef anglers say red snapper fishing is now better than it has been in 40 years thanks to an extended period of tight harvest regulations, and also perhaps due in some measure to the success of fish excluder devices on shrimp nets, allowing millions of juvenile snapper to escape these days when in the past they would have wound up as by-catch, dead on the deck.
So why don't the feds want to pony up longer seasons and more generous bag limits? Because of a bizarre twist in the way they calculate the harvest—they measure it in pounds, and when their best estimate of a conservation-smart harvest is achieved, they call for closure.
But snapper grow fast and live a long time, and consequently anglers are now catching tons of whoppers—which means that they can catch a lot fewer before they reach those limits set by the feds, even though everybody agrees there are more red snapper and bigger red snapper than there have been in decades. It is much like the paradoxical Catch 22, and it's causing a furious reaction among fishermen from
The Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council will review the 2013 red snapper population assessment during their June meeting in
Captain Bob Zales of Panama City Beach, past president of the National Association of Charterboat Operators and one of the leaders in seeking reasonable regulation in offshore waters, is among many pushing for pure state management of federal waters—and these days, it's really starting to make sense, while it didn't 30 years back. In the bad old days, only commercial fishermen had lobbyists and power to control the rules, and all fisheries suffered as a result where they had control.
But these days, the checks and balances of recreational anglers and conservationists weigh in for keeping the maximum number of quality-sized fish in the water—and even the saltiest old commercial harvesters have finally come to realize that it just simply makes sense to guard the resource, so that they can not only make money fishing today, but also tomorrow, next month and next year. It should be noted that thanks goes to not only state agencies but also federal biologists for much of the research on offshore species that has made this awakening happen.
In any event, during the seasons—whether you fish inshore or off—there are some tactics that consistently produce results on red snapper.
How to get 'em
Anglers who regularly target red snapper say they are "bottom-relating" fish, but not "bottom fish". They're usually found over structure, but not as often down in the structure like grouper.
Experts seek out what they call a snapper "Christmas tree" show on their fishfinder screens before dropping a line. The pyramid or "tree" is the shape made by a school of snapper, with most deep, fewer at the top. In 200 feet of water the stack may extend as much as 50 feet off bottom.
Red snapper are typically found in 60 foot depths and more, on out to the edge of the continental shelf at around 250 to 280 feet—beyond this zone, the bottom drops away to a mile deep and more, and common reef fish are not found in those depths.
The Panhandle has a unique fishery in that there are hundreds and perhaps thousands of "private" reefs, that is junk that skippers have dropped on otherwise barren sand bottom to attract snapper—old washing machines, steel drums, all sorts of bulky trash. It's not legal any more, but there are still many of these reefs around, and smart skippers have dozens of them in their
There are also numerous legally-placed artificial reefs, including tugboats, barges and ships as well as demolition rubble, that attract lots of fish; these can be found on any good offshore chart, or visit www.myfwc.com and type "artificial reefs" in the search box.
A much easier way to get on the fish, however, is simply to join a charterboat trip; the Panhandle area between
Party boats or "head boats" are also numerous in Panhandle ports, and these big boats can handle up to 40 anglers, at prices typically around $45 each for four hours, $65 each for six hours. Kids under 5 are not accepted on some offshore boats—check in advance.
Both charter and head boats provide all bait and tackle. On a charter boat, you'll usually need to bring your own drinks and food, suntan lotion, etc. Party boats usually have snack bars and sell drinks, and some do not permit you to BYO.
In general, the procedure is for the skipper to head for his favorite
The angler drops the bait to bottom, then takes up several turns of the reel to suspend the bait in the snapper zone. The fish take it from there. When you feel a bite, you reel like mad and hopefully the circle hook digs in. Jerking on the rod to set the hook rarely works when using circle hooks; just keep tension on the line and reel very fast and the fish will usually set the hook itself.
Red snapper these days typically average 5 to 8 pounds, though 20-pounders are not unheard of. The limit is two per angler per day, minimum size 16 inches. Red snapper are among the tastiest of all fish, and are great broiled, fried or baked.
For those new to fishing offshore, it's a really good idea to load up on Dramamine, scopolamine patches or other seasick remedy starting the night before your trip—it won't do any good to take the pill as the boat pushes off the dock. Even if seas are expected to be calm, "newbies" would do well to take seasick remedies; what seems a gentle swell to seasoned old salts may be enough to make your day very unpleasant if you've never been in blue water before.
Another highly effective remedy is the electronic "watch" type seasick prevention device—it sends very light shocks into the nerve on the inside of your wrist, which blocks the impulse to get seasick. These are fairly pricey, at $89 to $130, but if you plan on going offshore regularly and are inclined to get sick, they're well worth it—I've tried several of these and they're highly effective, plus they don't give you the sleepy feeling of scopolamine and Dramamine. Less expensive are pressure bracelets, with a knob to press on the nerve in your wrist—I've not tried them but the concept is fairly similar.

If you're on the hunt for a new project, trying to figure out if the potential starting point you're looking at is worth building can be tough. For most projects, you can resign yourself to the fact that you will have more invested (both time and money) than what the car's actual list value is. But then you have to ask yourself if you are building it with dreams of a fiscal windfall at a big-money auction or for the fun of it and sunny-day cruising enjoyment?
If you're resurrecting a car to sell, then you've got to start with a vehicle that has a high, sentimental-free (for you) inherent value. Some examples would be a '69 L78 Camaro, '66-67 L79 Nova, any '66-72 Chevelle SS396 convertible, etc. These cars all have rarity and high performance to boost their value, making them more attractive for the profit-minded restorer/builder. A six-cylinder anything will never be as much as these cars unless it has some bizarre provenance, like it once belonged to Zora Arkus-Duntov or Vince Piggins himself used it for some purpose.
Now, if you're building a car for fun, nostalgia, to have a cruiser, or a more sentimental reason, you end up with more things to consider. First, how plentiful are parts for the car you're looking at? Hand in hand with that is how expensive are said parts? Take sheetmetal for example. If you're restoring a '55-57 Chevy, most metal pieces are going to be readily available and at reasonable prices. But say you're working on a '58 Chevy? Metal parts are tough to find, and usually much more expensive. The same could be said for things like trim pieces, interior parts, and so on. This is especially important to consider if you're on a tight budget.
Second, the work your project car (or potential project) needs can you handle it? If you've never really used a welder before and are looking at buying a rust bucket, weak metal working skills are not going to help your cause. Now, the same project can be a great way to learn those metal skills, but you have to figure this into your expectations for how long the project will take. A good shop could install a whole floor in a '69 Camaro in a day or two, but the DIY'er at home is probably gonna take a month or two for said installation.
If you've already bought a car, but get the sense you're in over your head, STOP! Do a serious evaluation of where things are and the work you're looking at doing. If it's going to be too much, selling the project so you can get one that's more in tune with your skill set, bank account and available time is a viable option to consider. We see it all the time where guys get far into a build, then lose interest, or get frustrated, and sell it for pennies on the dollar to another enthusiast who has the ability and/or resources to pick up where the former left off.
Third, how long do you want to spend working on the car before you can actually drive it? If the itch to get behind the wheel of something isn't too bad and your patience good, then a car with more work to be done, that's also cheaper, is a viable option. Some people don't care how long a project will take and may only work on it a few times a year. This is an important consideration and you have to be honest with yourself. Heck, we know some people who have worked on the same car for decades. But if you are dying to hit the local cruise night and area car shows, a vehicle closer to turn-key condition would be more up your alley.
Another note on this one: Working on a car that's actually drivable can be a great boost to motivation. From personal experience, we know too well how easy it is to put off a project once it becomes inoperable. Keeping a car roadworthy is a big help along the way, until you absolutely have to tear it down for a long-term installation.

In mathematics, a coefficient is a constant multiplicative factor of a certain object. For example, in the expression 9x2, the coefficient of x2 is 9.
The object can be such things as a variable, a vector, a function, etc. In some cases, the objects and the coefficients are indexed in the same way, leading to expressions such as:
In a polynomial P(x) of one variable x, the coefficient of xk can be indexed by k, giving the convention that for example:
is 4.
The coefficients of polynomial also may be in the other order:
and must be a0≠0 and a0 is the leading coefficient of Q.
Important coefficients in mathematics include the binomial coefficients which are coefficients in the statement of the binomial theorem. These can be partially found with Pascal's triangle.
The leading coefficient of the first row is 1, 2 is the leading coefficient of the second row, 4 is the leading coefficient of the third row, and the last row does not have a leading coefficient.
