Lagos — With his hands firmly tucked in his side pockets and his faced squeezed in apparent fury, Okon, a young man in his 30s, leaned on the entrance door leading to the ticketing counter of the Arik Airline located at the local section of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos. Okon looked like a wounded lion who wasn't ready to share his predicament with anyone. Just like any other passenger of the airline who had booked for a flight to Warri, Delta state, but has been disappointed with the sudden flight disruption, Okon felt he already has enough to deal with and granting a press interview was simply a waste of time.
"Are you not a Nigerian? Don't you know what is happening? What else do you want me to tell you about my losses to the sudden flight disruption? Do you have an alternate flight for me, now?" Okon fired rhetorically at the reporter who had sought to know what the situation was with him.
When further pressed on why he has not gone to collect a refund from the airline staff like other passengers were doing, he blurted, thus:
"Of what significance is the collection of a refund at a time I ought to be in Warri? Look, I came in here at about 6am, hoping to leave Lagos by 8 am and arrived at Warri by 9. But this is almost 12 O'clock and I'm still in Lagos. The appointment I had in Warri was meant to be at 10:30, I just received a call that the guys I was suppose to meet with have cancelled it and I'm not sure they will be willing to re-fix it. In fact, I dey fex (mad) with everyone," Okon said.
Asked to state specifically who he was angry with, Okon said he was mad with Arik Airline, Federal Aviation Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), the ministry of Aviation and everybody he considered to be part of his flight disruption.
"These people are treating us like animals in our own country. If they do not stop their madness, it will come to a point when we will also show them the animals in us and all of us will be animals!" Okon said with a note of finality as he walked past the reporter and managed to find a seat under the passengers' awaiting canopy.
Like Okon, like Seyi Martins. But unlike Okon who was hostile in sharing his plights with journalists, Martins and his younger brother who were on their way to Warri but have now been made to queue up for refund were willing to speak their minds. According to Matins, what seemed to be more painful to him was how he was deceived to buy the two tickets from the counter.
"When I came to buy the tickets for my brother and I, I had an inkling that all was not well with Arik because instead of paying directly at the counter I was taken to that corner (pointed at a direction) where a guy was sitting. When I approached the guy and demanded why I was being asked to pay to him and not at the usual place, he said there 'may be some hiccups in the flight'. He was however quick to allay my fear, saying whatever the case maybe, the airline will still fly.
"After payment N72,000 for my ticket and that of my brother, we were asked to be here by 6 am because the departure hour is 8 am but to our surprise we received text messages at about 3 am that our flights have been cancelled. Still not convinced, we brought along our luggage with the hope that we would be traveling today. But here I am. It is really unfortunate that an airline of Arik status can be so fraudulent in collecting ticket fares from people when it knew quite well, it won't be flying," Martins said.
Martin's choice of the word "fraudulent" was not borne out of co-incidence. The young man said some few weeks ago, his cousin who joined the airline on a direct flight to London from Lagos was made to cough out the sum of N82,000 being a fine for late coming to catch up with his flight. "They said he was late to catch up with a flight slated for 9 am when indeed they were the ones who locked up the gate by 7 am, so when I say they are fraudulent, I know what I'm saying," he added.
One other passenger, who was also not finding the whole scenario funny, was Michael Abiodun. Abiodun, a chartered Accountant said he had booked online with Arik for a direct flight from Lagos to Sokoto, four days earlier. But as it was, the sudden twist of fate has rendered his early booking, useless. He was quite devastated as he counted his losses with Sunday Trust.
Yet for Arik, the airline operator who was in the eyes of the storm, the civil action that grounded its operations for two days was not self-inflicted but one fostered on it by those it says, are hell-bent in crippling its existence. At a press briefing organized in the wake of the crisis, the airline Managing Director, Chris Ndulue insisted that even though the flight disruption exercise was carried out by union members working with aviation parastatals, yet the true culprits are the Ministry of Aviation and the Federal Aviation Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) whose officials are pursuing parochial interest.
According to Ndulue, trouble started for Arik due to the airline's inability to meet the personal demands of certain influential person(s) in the industry. The Managing Director further said all the primordial attacks were aimed at grinding the airline which he said its steady rise in the aviation industry has been the envy of others.
"Before now, there have been several attempts and threats to disrupt our operations and sell the usual impression that Arik Air owes the agencies. After these attempts failed, they resorted to using some FAAN staff. They locked the boarding gate and prevented passengers from getting to the aircraft and were making false announcement of unimaginable sums of money they claimed Arik owed," Ndulue said.
But while the head-butting between Arik airline and the union members lasted, other airlines operator within the airport quickly cashed in on the situation. When Sunday Trust visited the departure lounge of the airport, Aero Contractor appeared to be the biggest beneficiary of the sudden influx of air travellers. IRS airline was able to tap in too. Though, when enquiries were made at the counter as to the current airfare charges, nothing seemed to have changed from old rates yet the attendants would be quick to inform the passengers that all available flights have been booked.
Already, the two warring sides in the Arik/Union face-off had met at a round table and resolved their differences. But whether the airline operator will be able to pacify its aggrieved customers and still retain the same loyalty it once enjoyed among them is what to be seen in the days ahead.

At age ten my parents attached my feet to a pair of skis, pointed me in the direction of a ski instructor and then sprinted off to the tubing hill. As a beginner, I learned that one of the most intimidating aspects of the sport was getting on and off of the ski lift.
Today, as an experienced skier and snowboarder, as well as a lift operator at Park City Mountain Resort, I realize that riding a chairlift is not nearly as difficult as I first thought it was. Watching hundreds of people get onto the lift every day, I've seen just about every simple mistake that can be made while loading (getting onto) or unloading (getting off of) the chair. So here are some simple tips to keep in mind in order to have a successful ride on a chairlift.
As Lift Operators at PCMR, our top priority is your safety while riding the chairlift. We also want you to feel comfortable with your riding experience, so keep these tips in mind and enjoy the ride.
Loved this. So simple but so many people get it wrong. I'm an experienced skiier but I had to drop 10ft in to powder from a chair when my backpack got caught and I missed the get-off. Lesson learnt!

Drew I was taught to look over a shoulder so that I knew when to sit. Are you refering to a high speed chair that slows down before sitting. I have been wacked engough times in the back of the legs by Liftiea at PCMR to know that they do not always do a good chair bump (one that might send a little one flying).
Are we also supposed to put our feet on the little red board?
And I have be told that it is not a safety bar but rather a comfort bar as it will not prevent one from falling out.

Mark Martin to sign with Hendrick # 5 Ride

Sources: Martin to leave DEI, replace Mears in No. 5
By David Newton and Marty Smith
SONOMA, Calif. -- Casey Mears and Mark Martin look to be on the move, and their futures might be linked.
Mears' future with Hendrick Motorsports appears in jeopardy, ESPN.com has learned. Although Mears has one year left on his contract, team owner Rick Hendrick would not commit to the driver of the No. 5 car beyond this season.
"I'm committed to him right now," Hendrick said on Sunday at Infineon Raceway. "I'm committed to him making that car run better right now."
Earlier on Sunday, sources told ESPN.com that Martin would leave Dale Earnhardt Inc. Later, ESPN.com learned that he would replace Mears, making one last full-time run at a championship.
John Story, the vice president of motorsports at DEI, said there are plans to put Aric Almirola into a full-time ride next season. Almirola currently is splitting the No. 8 with the 49-year-old Martin. He indicated the full-time ride would be in the No. 8.
"Aric is ready for a full-time ride," Story said. "There's a lot of interest in sponsorship for Aric. He's a bright young guy and a hell of a race car driver.
"He fits a lot of company's demographics with his age and Hispanic background. And first and foremost he can drive. We have to get him in a car full time somehow, someway."
Martin, who has been running a part-time schedule the past couple of seasons, was unavailable for comment.
Martin has been pivotal in mentoring DEI's young driving stable, especially Almirola and Regan Smith.
"He's been very good to us and very helpful, and good to our other drivers, so we're working through what's best for Mark, for Aric and for DEI," Story said. "We have five guys we'd like to run full time, and Mark doesn't want to run a full-time schedule.
"So he's looking at something very similar to what he has today. That's the challenge we have. We talk every day trying to make that work."
Hendrick would not address whether Martin could replace Mears. He also would not give Mears a strong endorsement.
"We're looking at everything right now," he said. "We're not ready to make any announcements. Guys, give me a break. What's there to tell? We just want to get in the Chase, we want to run good, we want to win races."
Mears was 27th in points before Sunday's race. He has finished 17th or worse in the last six races and 26th or worse in five of six. In 51 races at HMS he has one win and only 12 top 10s.
Dale Earnhardt Jr., who joined the organization this season, has a win and 11 top 10s in 15 races.
Mears has been confident in his return to HMS over the past couple of months. There was doubt in his voice on Sunday, before he went out and finished fifth at Infineon, his best showing this season.
"I don't know yet," he said when asked if he would return in 2009. "Obviously, we haven't had a good season. I think anything could happen. Right now, I don't really have anything good to talk about."

Re: Mark Martin to sign with Hendrick # 5 Ride
Mears is dead weight anyway.***IF MY POSTS PISS YOU OFF, CONTACT TILLERMAN. HE IS MY OFFICIAL PUBLIC RELATIONS DIRECTOR***
No, I will not stop hijacking threads for my own entertainment.
I don't practice diplomacy with morons.
Welcome to my own personal anger management session. Now sit down and shut up.
Re: Mark Martin to sign with Hendrick # 5 Ride
Hopefully this is move will only better Mark martin. He just hasn't been the same since he left the old #6 Valvoline years ago. Although he was very close to the championship a few times. Hopefully this last run will be a championship run.

Laboratory Rules - Compiled by Mark Bailey
Start promptly and on time.
Reports are due at the start of the period.
Keep the top of your bench as free from unnecessary apparatus as possible.
Be certain the apparatus is set up and connected properly before beginning. When circuits using 120v 60~line power are to be operated, they must first be checked by the instructor before the power is turned on.
No electrical or electronic equipment is ever to be energized, except when an electronics instructor is present in the laboratory.
The experiments are not especially dangerous. However, should an accident occur, report it immediately to your instructor. The best accident preventatives are a thorough knowledge of the experiment and a serious positive attitude toward lab work.
Know the exact location of first-aid kits, fire-fighting equipment and the nearest telephone.
Know who to contact in case of emergency.
Smoking or eating is never permitted inside the laboratory.
"Goofing off" or "horseplay" has no place in the laboratory. Student who persist in this behavior are subject to expulsion from the laboratory.
Leave the bench and equipment clean at the close of each laboratory.
ALWAYS be sure, all of the equipment is turned off at the end of every lab period.
Never leave the lab before the end of the period without permission from the instructor.
Know who is responsible for the lab.

A Murang'a woman was on Friday charged with conspiring with her sister to get Sh500,000 from her husband. Ann Kabura was accused of giving false information to the police. She denied the charges before senior principal magistrate Elizabeth Osoro.
The mother of two claimed she and her son were given a lift by a woman from a supermarket to their home, which is about 100 metres from where she claims they were abducted.
She was released on a Sh200,000 bond and a surety of a similar amount. However, the magistrate ordered that she remains in remand if she fails to raise the bond.
The court was also adjourned in the middle of the session after the accused, who had at first pleaded guilty, sought for time to talk to her family.
"Your hounour, I beg for one hour to talk to my family before the court issues its ruling," she pleaded with the magistrate. When the court resumed, Kabura requested it to take the plea again and she pleaded not guilty.
The court heard that on Monday, Kabura called his husband John Kihonge telling him she and her son had been kidnapped by a strange woman and another man while shopping at a supermarket near Mukuyu market.
The court also heard that Kabura called the husband for the second time informing him that the abductors were demanding Sh500, 000 from him to secure their release.
The charge sheet also indicated that when Kihonge called his wife's home again the phone was answered by a man who told him he had kidnapped his wife and son and that he should give Sh500, 000 for them to be released safely.
Kihonge said he immediately reported the matter to the police in an effort to save his family from the abductors. During an interview with the Star the man who is a motor vehicle broker broke down into tears at the memories of the psychological trauma his wife took him through in her quest to get easy cash.
"I told them I could not even afford Sh10, 000 but pleaded with the man not to harm my family,"Kihonge said tearfully. He said he was shocked to realise it was a covertly executed plan in which the wife of 12 years in marriage planned to swindle him.
However Kabura's sister Phyllis Njeri exposed the secret but attempted to absolve herself from the blame saying she was not part of the cartel.
"She said she wanted to fake her abduction and force her husband to give the money but I cautioned her against the idea but she went ahead with it," said Njeri. She said Kabura shared with her what she wanted to do in order to get the money from her husband.
"My sister visited me at Kabati on Monday night at around 9.00 pm and told me her husband Kihonge had lots of money and plots yet he was not ready to part with it and was drinking all over," said Njeri as she cuddled her two weeks old infant.
CID officers traced Kabura's phone signal to Gichohi village of Kakuzi division in Kabati area on the Murang'a-Thika highway where she was hiding at her sister's home she awaited the money to be delivered. Police are also looking for others who were involved in the racket.
At the same time Murang'a County Commissioner Kula Hache has cautioned residents against such forms of crimes. She said police were also investigating another such case in which a 64-year-old woman was abducted several weeks ago at Kongo-ini village and the family gave a Sh120, 000 ransom before she was released saying the incident was also suspect.
She cautioned the residents against such crimes adding that the crimes were causing panic in the area and at the same time scaring investors.
The County at the same time warned residents against to fundraising in order to pay abductors as the family of the 64-year-old woman did. "If you are caught contributing for criminals you will also be arrested and charged in court," she warned.

Oops, says state, SD can have housing money
Connections Housing, 9th & Broadway projects get belated green lights
Two downtown redevelopment affordable housing projects worth more than $100 million got belated green lights this week to proceed, 10 days after the state vetoed them.
City Attorney Jan Goldsmith announced on Friday the reversal of state Department of Finance decisions involving partial funding totaling $24.5 million for the Connections Housing at Sixth Avenue and A Street and Bridge Housing's 9th & Broadway.
Both had been denied the funds Dec. 17 as part of the state's review of spending plans for the first half of 2013, following the end to 401 local redevelopment agencies, including San Diego's.
"Adapting to the new world of redevelopment has been very challenging for the city," Goldsmith said in his announcement, "and we decided to file the lawsuit to test the boundary of redevelopment law in this state."
Mayor Bob Filner issued a one-word reaction, "Yay," followed by 10 exclamation points.
The Connections Housing project is a $36.6 million remodel of the 12-story historic San Diego Athletic Club Building at 1250 Sixth Ave. Starting next month, more than 200 homeless people will be able to live there until they find permanent residences. Others will get access to a variety of social services.
The city sued the state Dec. 21 over the project, saying a $4.2 million boost in the budget, covered by federal historic tax credits, would not violate the redevelopment dissolution law. The same argument had been advanced over the last few months to no avail.
"We would have to sue the state because that was just a wrong decision," said Connections CEO Joel Roberts, if the state had not changed its mind.
Deputy City Attorney Kevin Reisch said the 9th & Broadway project was not included in the lawsuit but was the subject of persistent phone calls and correspondence from Civic San Diego and other city offices.
The $67 million, 250-room project was days away from getting final construction loans and other financial commitments when the state denied $20.2 million in housing bond funds, saying various deadlines had expired.
Reisch said the city provided duplicate copies of documents to the state Dec. 24 and the state conceded that the funding was legal because it involved unexpended bond funds set aside for affordable housing.
"We're very pleased," he said.
Finance officials in Sacramento said they clarified their views on Monday to the city on Connections Housing could go forward with the federal tax credit funding and used additional information to approve 9th & Broadway.
They denied the lawsuit had any bearing on their decision, inasmuch as they were not informed of the suit until Thursday. They said about 10 other cities around the state have received similar reversal notices.
Bridge Housing officials declined comment until they could study the state's decision.
But Shawn Rosenberger, regional vice president and general manager for Turner Construction, the contractor on both 9th & Broadway and Connections Housing, commented, "Affordable housing is important and necessary to San Diego and we're pleased the state is allowing the projects to continue uninterrupted."

The Co-Chair of the Coalition for Domestic Election Observers, (CODEO). Justice V.C.R.A.C Crabbe has shown his disapproval for the use of the verification machines to authenticate the identity of voters.
Ghana's electoral system introduced a biometric voter registration system for the first time in this year's polls with a verification machine to check the biometric data of registered voters. However some of the verification machines broke down compelling the Electoral Commission (EC) to suspend voting in those constituencies to today.
The breakdown of the machines has revived the debate whether it was a right decision to introduce the system. In an interview with Africa Election Project reporter, Pascal Kudiabor, the retired Supreme Court Judge did not hide his displeasure. "I don't believe in machines" Justice Crabbe said. "We have introduced a new system-Biometric System and these are the consequences". He added.
He noted that though the EC had promised that there will be back up machines, "I have a feeling that this situation might have failed. The machine might have heat up and stopped. Even computers sometimes freezes and you had to wait".
Voting is underway in 196 polling stations across Greater Accra region according to the Principal Public Relations Officer of the EC Silvia Annor as well as other polling centres in the Northern region and parts of the Central region.
The challenges encountered with the use with the verification machines was not unexpected as the biometric registration exercise was equally fraught with problems, a situation that compelled the General Secretary of the NDC Johnson Asiedu Nketia and other leaders of the party to protest the proposal to introduce the verification system. But their stand was opposed by the NPP and some civil society groups.

Last night I was trying to think of an easier way to manage my torrents on my home server when I came across a guide for a terminal-based setup on the Dropbox wiki. Basically there is a python script provided that creates 'fake' copies of the GUI libraries that Dropbox uses which allow you to run the client in a purely text-based environment. The guide is here: http://wiki.getdropbox.com/TipsAndTrick … nuxInstall
What this allows you to do is sync folders on your server and/or torrentslave with folders on one or more of your other machines. After setting it up I created a symlink in the Dropbox folder on the server to the directory that I have rtorrent watching. It synced up with my other machines and now I can just drop .torrent files in there effortlessly - no messing about with scp or ftp clients. By moving a few config files (e.g. .rtorrent.rc, .bashrc, etc.) from the home directory into the Dropbox folder and replacing them with symlinks, it also allows you to make configuration changes easily from another machine (Note that currently you cannot symlink TO the files in your home directory FROM the Dropbox folder, but only FROM symlinks in your home directory TO config files in the Dropbox folder. For some reason if you try the other way round, dropbox just writes to the symlinks as if they were regular files, and they don't sync properly)
Not sure if this is old news or not, but I thought it might interest some people here as an interesting way of managing bittorrent on a remote machine. It is not the most efficient method in terms of bandwidth, but it makes it very, very easy to add/remove torrents on a remote machine just by syncing local folders.

Parent Forum: Barking Issues with Dogs
Posted: 10/7/2008 4:59 PM
Has anyone heard of a dog that never barks? I am concerned he might be mute, and was wondering if there was a type of test out there to prove if he is just really quiet or actually mute?

DATE & TIME: Wednesday, December 5, 8 p.m. (et)
FACTS & STATS: Site: McCleod Center (10,000) -- Cedar Falls, Iowa. Television: None. Home Record: UNC 1-1, UNI 4-0. Away Record: UNC 0-3, UNI 0-0. Neutral Record: UNC 0-0, UNI 0-3. Conference Record: UNC 0-0, UNI 0-0. Series Record: UNI leads 1-0.
GAMES NOTES: Looking to put an end to a four-game losing streak, the Northern Colorado Bears will head to the McCleod Center to battle the Northern Iowa Panthers in non-conference action Wednesday night.
Since winning its season opener, Northern Colorado has been unable to get into the win column with losses in four straight games after a 69-63 loss at UC Riverside. Three of those four losses have come on the road where the Bears will be spending the majority of the early season. Nine of the team's first 12 games are away from home including the Bears' next game against Wichita State.
Northern Iowa pushed itself above .500 and rebounded from a three-game slide with a 72-61 win over Milwaukee last time out. The three-game losing streak that preceded that win came against some tough competition in the Battle 4 Atlantis Tournament where the Panthers suffered losses to Louisville, Stanford and Memphis. Northern Iowa opens up a three-game road trip next against George Mason.
These teams met for the first time last season with Northern Iowa posting a 78-69 victory in a matchup also at the McCleod Center.
A poor offensive showing in the first half doomed Northern Colorado against UC Riverside. The Bears hit just 5-of-27 field goal attempts in the first half to fall behind 28-16 at halftime. Although the Bears then scored 47 points in the second half they allowed the Highlanders to shoot at a 60.0 percent pace while getting outscored 15-9 from the free throw line. Tate Unruh finished the game with 17 points, 15 of which came from beyond the arc, and 14 of which came after the break.
Even though the Bears have a losing record they have still managed to maintain a positive scoring differential (+0.8). Northern Colorado connects on 46.6 percent of its shots from the floor compared to 40.1 percent by foes. The scoring is keyed out of the backcourt by Tevin Svihovec (11.2 ppg) and Unruh (11.2 ppg). Unruh plays the most minutes on the team and is a player that relies heavily on his shot from the outside. The 6-foot-5 guard has attempted the most 3-pointers in the Big Sky (2.8 pg) and has hit eight triples in the last two games. In the frontcourt Derrick Barden (10.0 ppg, 7.6 rpg) and Tim Huskisson (10.6 ppg, 5.6 rpg) are solid but undersized with each listed at 6- foot-5.
Northern Iowa pulled away in the second half against Milwaukee by shooting 60.9 percent in the final 20 minutes to secure the win. The Panthers' perimeter defense was lacking in the contest as the team was outscored 30-18 from 3-point range. Northern Iowa made up for that with a 12-3 edge from the free-throw line. Nate Buss nailed 8-of-9 shots off the bench and had a team- leading 17 points.
The Panthers do not score like Northern Colorado does, turning in a 67.7 points per game average. However, Northern Iowa is a much superior defensive team. The Panthers surrender only 58.3 points per game on 37.5 percent shooting, both of which rank in the top 50 nationally. Deon Mitchell (14.3 ppg, 4.0 apg) is the only player scoring in double figures but has managed to be the top distributor as well. Mitchell is selective with his shots also and hits on 53.8 percent of his field goal attempts. Jake Koch (9.9 ppg, 6.6 rpg) is certainly capable of putting up points consistently and also leads the team on the glass. Balance is key for the Panthers on offense, as seven different players score at least 6.6 points per game.
No one has been able to beat Northern Iowa at home. The only teams that have been able to top the Panthers are some of the better squads in the country. Unfortunately for Northern Colorado, the Bears don't fall into that category.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Northern Iowa 76, Northern Colorado 64

Must be labeled with wrong size
By David
from Ohio
Comments about Jos. A. Bank Traveler Tailored Fit Pinpoint Houndstooth Buttondown Collar Dress Shirt:
The sleeves are an inch too short. Haven't contacted them yet, busy at work and don't know a simple way to exchange it.Complicating factor is I already washed it -- bought many of same size in the past; none of the others ever had this problem.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Service and delivery comments:
There was an issue with my order as one of the products was out of stock and nothing was done electronically to stop the order from going through the way it had. There was a sale on 4 shirts for a certain price. I received 3 instead of 4 and was charged the same rate. Called customer service and she helped me get my 4th shirt with no problem.

About Me Bargain Shopper, Career, Casual, Classic, No Iron, Quality
This shirt and other's like it were requested by my grandson's to wear to work at their firm. They wanted some button down shirts that don't have to be ironed like your Travelers Dress Shirts that they really like. I got them several of these shirts at a great sale price. They really liked the pattern and quality of this shirt and it was nice that they come in tailored and also some in slim. They not only are able to wear them to work, with or without a tie, but also after work to socialize. It's just a perfect shirt all the way around.

Great Product
By Thin Man
from Thornton, CO
I own a few Jos A Bank shirts. This was my first time ordering one online. I was not sure what I would receive since I ordered based on the color and detail description online instead of finding a shirt at their store in person first, then ordering online. I was very pleased with what I received. The delivery time was fast and all the information was available if I needed to return the product. The quality of the shirt is excellent and the "tailored fit" is perfect for me.
The delivery was prompt and the packaging was not damaged. The packaging was dark, non transparent plastic, which I like for privacy.
excellent shirt
By Sven
from MN.
About Me Sexy
Quality non-iron dress shirt. Fit: I am 6'1" and 185 lbs, broad shouldered and fit. I wear 17 x 36. I exchanged the Tailored, which was just a little baggy for a Slim. The Slim is flattering and more stylish, especially with the narrower cut pants that are in. I feel I look more athletic in it. Still loose enough (but not by a lot) to be comfortable to work in. If you're much bulkier than I, I'd go with the Tailored, unless you want to show off how ripped you are, and maybe want to risk popping a button.
My new favorite shirt
By TW
from Dallas, TX
Bought this as a work shirt and really appreciate the tailored fit. It looks good with practically everything, and I know I will get a lot of use out of this. Very happy with the purchase.
Love them!
By Banker!
from Cincinnati
They fit great and look sharp. I am 6 foot 225lb so its hard to get a shirt thats not full of excess material......thats why I like these shirts. The tuck in at the right lenght, dont shrink and wash decently well. For the sales price I usually stock up on multipel shirts and then jsut toss them when they start to look stale. I have a few of them for close to a year and I would say thats about the right time to chuck em. Overall....excellent shirt.
Good deal-second time w a missing button
By Jeff B
from Charlotte NC
Quality clothing at a very competitive internet special pricing. I can't however continue to have shirts show up without button down collar buttons (right out the box). On the road with a brand new shirt, ready for a presentation to an exec client committee and i am missing a collar button. Unfortunate! i guess i need to add this to the travel check list.

This shirt is comfortable and fits nicely. I especially like that it doesn't need to be ironed. It's casual but nice enough for the office.

Nuruzade, however, admits Bristol will be 'very tough' opposition after finishing runners-up in all three competitions to date this season including in EBL Division One.
"I'm pleased with how we've done this season because we've had a lot to contend with," Nuruzade told the Chronicle, "But we've done so very well and come out of the 24 games with a positive record.
"We've had a very young team who've done exceptionally well and to think we were only a handful of points away from third place is in fact a good achievement for us.
"We dropped three games by one point this season and lost a crucial game last weekend which would have propelled us up the league."
Reading lost 77-73 against Bradford on Saturday before narrowly beating Leeds 59-58 to end the regualr season in seventh with a very respectable record of 14 wins and 10 losses.
Nuruzade continued: "Our goal has been to reach the post- season which we've done with a great run recently and I'm certainly very pleased about that.
"Going into Saturday's game with that in mind and the fact we've beaten Bristol recently, is good for us in terms of confidence.
"This week is about making sure we get our preparation spot on and making some tweaks and additions on the practice floor.
"One thing for sure about the team this year is their commitment to playing for forty minutes, my team has always played with heart, effort, and enthusiasm, and I feel this puts us in a decent position for Saturday's game against very tough opposition who will be looking to win their first trophy of the season.
"It will be a tough challenge for me and my team but one we must feel confident about conquering."
Bristol finished with a record of 18 wins and six losses as they parted with their Division One trophy to newly-crowned champions London Leopards.
Saturday's meeting will be the third time the two team's have met this term, with the Bristol outfit winning the first game comfortably by 68 points to 54, although the Rockets will be buoyed by the most recent game which they won by three points.
Saturday's victors will go on to face the winner of the Derby v Bradford clash in the semi-finals at the Amaechi Basketball Centre where the end of season final fours will take place for the fourth consecutive year.
Reading captain Ryan Lohfink is confident the Rockets can cause a big upset on Saturday and has been delighted with how preparations are going.
Lohfink said: "It's been a tough season with all the comings and goings, the injuries and illnesses, and the competitiveness of the league.
"But despite all this I feel we've done a really good job of competiting and getting in a position where we can go into any game feeling that we can win it, and I think it's important that we take this confidence into Saturday's game against Bristol.
"It has been a different season for me because I've had to take a lead role in scoring and rebounding and helping our younger players, but it's something I've found challenging which I feel has pushed my leadership skills to another level.
"Bristol will be a tough opposition for sure."

A special hiring fair for veterans is set for Thursday in Wichita Falls.
September unemployment rate for the nation fell to 7.8%.
Unemployment numbers continue to rise in the nation and state, and here in Wichita Falls, too. Officials say there are plenty of jobs to be had, though, and employers are simply waiting on the workers with the right skills.
After a significant improvement in unemployment in Texas and Texoma last month, jobless numbers are on the rise again
The local economy is showing signs of picking up as the local unemployment rate continues to fall.
In Wichita Falls, the unemployment rate dropped to 6.9%, down from 7.7% a year ago. Numbers like that have local leaders looking forward to the year ahead.

I am a bit of a fan of history and I love the history you find in cemeteries. My favorites are the old pioneer cemeteries of the west.
For those of you that are looking for forgotten relatives, loved ones, friends and family, I just want to say to you that I do what I do here on Find A Grave, for you. No one should be forgotten! We may not all be rich, or famous, or powerful, or have invented great things but we all made a difference in some way and we deserve to be remembered for the differences we've made. If just by creating a memorial page, I feel that I have done something to remember that person and that they did live and that they did matter.
The information on the memorials that I have created is only as good as the information I had to work with from the beginning. I am sure that there are many mistakes and I will correct every one that I can but if fellow contributor finds something wrong that still needs to be corrected, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Transfers: If you are interested, just ask! I am not hung up on the findagrave.com policies, all that is important to me is that you are better able to add to the memorial than I am. You don't have to be directly related, just willing and able to make the page better.
Photos: There is no need to ask permission to use the photos that I post unless it is to be for commercial purposes. I take these photographs for you so please, use them as you need to. All that I ask is that you source and credit them properly.
To all the Find a Grave photographers out there: if you have a picture to post that is better than one that I have posted, please do and then let me know. If I agree, I will gladly remove mine in order to avoid cluttering up the memorial page.
Someday I know I'll have my own headstone and if I am lucky enough, this is the epitaph that will be on it: (I didn't write it, but I'll be happy to use it)
The Measure of a Man
Not "How did he die?"
But, "How did he live?"
Not "What did he gain?"
But, "What did he give?"
These are the units
to measure the worth
of a man, as a man,
regardless of birth.
Not "What was his station?
But, "Had he a heart?"
And "How did he play
his God given part?"
Was he ever ready
with a word of good cheer,
to bring back a smile,
to banish a tear?'
Not "What was his church?"
Nor "What was his creed?"
But, "Had he befriended
those really in need?"
Not "What did the sketch
in the newspaper say?"
But "How many were sorry
when he passed away!"
But, at the end of the day, if all my headstone reads is "He was a good man" then, I will be happy with that too!
If you're still reading, maybe you'd like to stop by and say Hi! to very special friend. I lost her some time ago but she is still missed everyday,
Belle West
I found some great information on how to take a picture of a headstone. I am passing this site along because I feel that a good, clear picture is always what the viewer wants. Not something that is just good enough. The site is

LT Geoge Lorraine Jones
He is listed as LT in the USNA Alumni Lookup,so I suggested that the rank be included when I created the link to my classmate, his son, Davey. It is further identification to help distinguish him from LTC George L, Jr. in a search. Both sons are in Arlington though their brother George Gordon, a non-grad, is with his father there in CA.

Only the first prototype of the Indian Navy's new MiG-29s has flown, but the force's preparations for the new aircraft are proceeding apace. The Indian Navy has not operated conventional carrier -based aircraft since the withdrawal of the Hawker Sea Hawk in 1983, after which the STOVL BAE Systems Sea Harrier became the service's only carrier-based fighter.Captain GM Gopakumar of the Indian Navy told Flight Daily News that Indian Navy pilots are already flying exchange tours on Indian Air Force MiG-29s, and though delivery of the first INAS MiGs has been delayed from November 2007 until March or April 2008, pilot conversion training in Russia will commence in August.
TrainingIndian Navy pilots have also reportedly been undergoing carrier landing and take off training at NAS Pensacola, Florida.Though the Indian Navy did not buy eight ex-British Royal Navy Sea Harrier FA.Mk 2s when they were retired in March 2006, the Navy has apparently acquired four aircraft for spares use, to help support and sustain India's existing fleet of FRS.Mk 51s. The latter are undergoing a major upgrade, with new ELTA radar, missiles and helmet mounted sights. This should allow the ageing Sea Harriers to serve on until 2020.

How to Clean Your Room Quickly and Efficiently
Ever want to clean up your room but you don't want to spend hours doing so? Well after reading this article and following these steps you will be able to clean your room fast and efficiently so you won't have to keep re-cleaning.
1Start out with making your bed. This will make the room look much cleaner. Make sure there are not any pillows or blankets on your floor. Put unknown items on your bed to determine where to put them later.Ad
2Now with the garbage bag or bin in hand look for any trash around your room: on the floor, desk, dresser, under your bed, in drawers, and in the closet. Put all the garbage in the bag or bin. Recycle what you can. Do this in about 1-2 minutes.
3Next take all dishes out of your room and put them in their proper place.
4Now pick up all the towels and put them in the bathroom or in the hamper.
5Now pick up all dirty clothes and put them in the hamper or in a laundry basket
6Put shoes away.Don't throw them in the closet, but in a box stacked neatly in your closet.
7Hang up or fold and put away all clean clothes. Put all dirty clothes in the laundry, and once they've been washed, make sure they are hung or folded and put away in their proper places as well.Ad
1Next put everything lying on the floor and desk away. Pick something up and put in its proper place until everything is put away. Separate everything into piles according to what they are.
- Try to avoid leaving papers loose on your desk, but if you can't, stack them neatly or use small shelves to organize them. Make sure to leave your desk clear enough that you can still work there productively.
2Close drawers, and closet doors.
3Clean all surfaces completely such as dressers, and bedside tables.
4Vacuum or sweep: make sure to get corners and every little place in your room. Wipe down any surfaces with a damp cloth.
5If you have any small novelty items, place them in a bin or on a shelf. You can also display them according to how you like,
6Do this every two days or every day to keep the cleanliness of your room.Ad
We could really use your help!

home cleaning?
Facebook Friends?
- Don't get distracted! It will only take longer!
- Listen to music while cleaning. Put on a playlist or use a tool like Pandora.
- Don't be afraid to throw away broken or useless items, such as broken toys or outgrown clothing. Getting rid of these items will reduce clutter and help keep your room permanently clean.
- Every time you go to your room, tidy a few items. This way it will stay relatively tidy, and you won't have to do an extensive cleaning job quite so often.
- If your room is very messy, break the job down into manageable chunks and attack them one at a time. For example, one day focus on your desk, the next on your closet, etc.
- Try filling up a few moving boxes with smaller items, putting them outside of your door, and unpacking them after you're done cleaning.
- Don't shove ever thing under your bed or in your closet! Actually pick it up and put it in the right place.
- Instead of picking up all the garbage like the little pieces of garbage if you have a vacuum use the suck up side to get the corners and vacuum the rest.
- Don't throw things in random spots because if you have a mom or dad that comes in and checks, you have to clean it and it starts over, save yourself some time.

Thank you for registering! I am very excited about this opportunity to introduce the public to Hypnotherapy and to help prospective clients meet you and discover your unique talents and abilities.
How this works-
Wendi.com is launching national advertising on TV and radio that offers a free hypnosis session to a client with a Hypnotherapist in their area. As a Hypnotherapist you have the opportunity to meet a new client and help them discover the power of hypnotherapy to help them make changes in their lives. Most of these referrals will be working with issues for weight release, motivation, self sabotage and appetite control.
The client will have a certificate number that they will give to you that is good for one session.
You can do this session in your office or if the client prefers, on the phone.
Please help spread the word. Our network is dependent on excellent therapists who are committed to helping people in a professional way.
After the session the client will return to this site to do an evaluation.
Remember- that by registering with our hypnotherapy network you agree to accept the clients coupon and do a full session at no charge. You agree that you will not have any terms and conditions for the client using their complimentary session with you.
Remember that the client is expecting a full session that will create a positive outcome that may result in their desire to do more hypnotherapy. The client will be asked to fill out an evaluation form that is sent to us, and kept on file with us at our office.
Thank you again for participating! This is a great way for people to learn about and experience a great Hypnotherapy session with you.

I've always wondered why King moved the year in which the novel is set, from 1985 to 1990. Did he ever give an official explanation?
In the original, published in 1978, the plague is set 7 years in the future. The uncut version, published in 1990, is set in 1990. Not wanting the plague to be set in the past would be unavoidable without updating the book every year. Anyone buying The Stand now reads the plague happening 22 years ago (so to speak). It seems like moving the date created a lot of work in updating all the cultural references, etc. Why not just keep the plague in 1985 and add the material he added?
