Comments about Casio PAW1300A-3V Green Slim Atomic-Solar Pathfinder:
This watch has been just about all I expected. It is actually a little lighter than I was expecting. The green color is a little different to get used to but I needed a watch that had a plastic band to wear for work. I work on an offhsore rig in the North Sea so the world time has been really nice. The automatic time set has been great. It works perfectly from my home in Utah and worked when I was in Aberdeen Scotland as well. It has not updated while I am on the actual rig but that is about 100 miles north of the northern most part of Scotland and I really wasnt expecting it to. The auto light is nice for getting the time in a dark room. The alarm is not as loud as I would like it to be though. I can sleep right through that thing. Plus, it takes quite a few button pushes to get that thing set the way you want it. The instruction manual works pretty well but I am a guy and I only read the stuff that I cant figure out on my own. The compass, altimeter and barometer are really just neat gadgets to me and I think that they should be seen as that by pretty much everyone. I would not use them as a primary source of information but they are a great backup if you need them while out camping or something like that. All in all a very good watch so far.

Miranda Lambert & Carrie Underwood to Perform New Duet on BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARDS
Country music superstars Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood will perform together live at the 2014 Billboard Music Awards to debut their new duet. The two singers join an already star-studded lineup of previously announced musical performers that includes 5 Seconds of Summer, Florida Georgia Line, Imagine Dragons, Jason Derulo, Jennifer Lopez, John Legend, Luke Bryan, OneRepublic and Pitbull. The 2014 Billboard Music Awards will broadcast live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on SUNDAY, MAY 18 on ABC at 8pm ET.
The two leading ladies of country will perform "Somethin' Bad," which appears on Ms. Lambert's upcoming album Platinum, available June 3rd. "I'm a huge Carrie Underwood fan," said Lambert. "'Somethin' Bad" is a meshing of our styles and there aren't many female collaborations in our format so I'm really excited to be debuting it on the Billboard Awards.
Lambert, the reigning CMA and ACM Female Vocalist of the Year, will be joined on stage by her friend and six-time Grammy winner, Carrie Underwood, a finalist for the 2014 Milestone Award presented by Chevrolet, given to an innovative artist who has achieved a notable chart milestone over the past year. Fans can vote for their favorite Milestone artist online at Billboard.com/milestone and can enter a contest for a chance to win an opportunity to present the award live at this year's event alongside global music superstar artist Kelly Rowland.
Fan voting for the 2014 Milestone Award presented by Chevrolet will continue through the first two hours of the awards show, ending at 10pm ET. To vote for finalists Ellie Goulding, OneRepublic or Carrie Underwood go to billboard.com/milestone.
The 2014 Billboard Music Award festivities start with the "Samsung Red Carpet LIVE! @ The 2014 Billboard Music Awards," which will live stream on Yahoo at 6:00 p.m., ET / 3:00 p.m., PT.

Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter Miranda Lambert is the reigning four-time CMA and reigning five-time ACM Female Vocalist of the Year (the first time anyone has won 5 consecutive years). Her last album, Four The Record, made history when it debuted atop Billboard's Top Country Albums chart, making Miranda the first country artist in the 47-year history of the chart to have each of her first four albums debut at # 1. All four of those albums have also been certified Platinum, which is the name of her fifth studio album, due out June 3rd.
The first single off of Platinum, "Automatic," is Miranda's highest charting first week single to date. Written by Miranda, Nicolle Galyon and Natalie Hemby, the autobiographical song reflects on the days of pay phones, learning to drive a stick shift, driving to Dallas to buy an Easter dress, recording the country countdown on her cassette recorder and more.
In addition to her award winning music, Miranda has designed a shoe line that is available at DSW and other retailers across the country. She also dedicates much of her time to her MuttNation Foundation. The foundation has raised more than $1.5 million to aid organizations and governmental institutions or entities whose purpose is to build animal shelters for better care, increase pet adoption and encourage responsible pet guardianship, rehabilitate sick or unsocialized animals, fund spay/neuter programs, reduce/eliminate euthanasia of healthy animals. She also owns two life style boutiques, general stores she named, The Pink Pistol. The stores are located in her hometown of Lindale, TX and Tishomingo, OK.

Is Global Warming a Ruse for Creeping Communism? Chairman Gore Pontificates on Income Inequality
Original post made by Our Freedom Is at Stake, Another Pleasanton neighborhood, on Feb 19, 2013
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - Former Vice President Al Gore says the American media and outsize effect of corporate money in politics are partially to blame for inaction on global climate change.
In wide-ranging remarks during an appearance Monday evening at the Clinton Presidential Library, Gore said journalists should have done a better job questioning the 2012 presidential candidates about climate change. He then railed against what he called the corrupting influence of money in politics.
Gore also defended the recent sale of his television network, Current TV, to Al-Jazeera. He said the Qatar government-owned network had a better track record of climate change reporting than some of its U.S.-based counterparts.
Outlining his new book, "The Future: Six Drivers of Global Change," Gore said the U.S. is uniquely suited to continue leading the world but needs to address, among other things, rising income inequality.
No, he did not then go on to address the virtues of Communist China, but we get the sense he would have had he more time.

From features to looks, JL Audio has hit a home run with the new Evolution Series. The new C2-525X has been engineered to deliver adequate efficiency while retaining a smooth mid-range response with low-frequency extension. The technology of the Evolution Series has been drawn from JL Audio's experience in woofer and tweeter design. Smoothness of response and the freedom from distortion are factors that make the C2 Series speakers truly one of a kind and enjoyable for everyone and the resulting product is one that delivers performance for any car audio enthusiast at a price that won't break the bank!

These were a bit of a splurge but I think it was worthwhile to buy them. These speakers are a good answer for someone who wants to get quality lows, mids, and highs from a coaxial speaker pair. I did not want to get into high end component speakers and I am very satisfied with these. I mounted them in the rear roof of my 2000 Jeep Cherokee. They are powered by a 50 RMS x 4 Alpine amp. Previously I had some Polk Audio speakers for which I had to set the crossover at 80 or 100 so as not to distort. For these JL C2-525x's I don't use the crossover at all and I get no distortion at the same gain level I used with the Polk's. I was surprised by the quality of the lows the JL's produce being such a small size. My only suggestion to JL would be to have built them with screw down type of wire connectors.

I am usually a component style guy, but for my auto had no choice but to get coaxials. I am happy I went with these JL Audios -- great mid/highs. Not heavy on bass as expected on coaxials but proven winner for clarity!

Never have I heard such amazing bass response and lifelike highs from a 2-way speaker. Makes my old Alpine Type-R's sound like crap. If you want the best possible sound and can't get components these are your next best option.

JL audio speakers will always be included on my list of speakers to consider for any future car audio system. Nice mid range, and the tweeters are impressive. I expect no low end from 5 1/4's, but these surprised me. They will not make you give up on your sub, but they do go lower than you expect. Great speakers.

Former late-night cable news satirist — and heir to David Letterman's throne at CBS' "Late Night" — Stephen Colbert has made headlines for his announcement Thursday that he has organized the funds to cover every public school grant request currently listed on DonorsChoose.org in his home state of South Carolina.
One of the most talked about moments from the Women in the World Summit 2015, an annual event that aims to explore "the struggles and triumphs of women and girls around the globe" that was held in New York City from April 22 to April 24, was a stirring poem from a sixth-grader.

What's the happiest country in the world? The answer isn't as simple as the question.
Georgia employers now have another option for paying their employees: prepaid payroll debit cards, according to a recent bulletin from the Georgia Chamber of Commerce's Center for Competitiveness.
Hinesville's Tractor Supply Co. recently donated $1,000 in tools and equipment to support the construction pathway at Liberty College and Career Academy. Store manager Matt Greig became aware of the program at LCCA from two media specialists who work in the district and then contacted LCCA. The tools will be used in the construction pathway on skills that help make students employable in the construction and carpentry trades.
The efficiency of the American welfare state is no minor issue of debate. Each year, the president and Congress negotiate the best ways to distribute funds in the federal budget, and each year there are those who call for major reforms to the social safety net, from both the left and the right. Some, typically from the conservatives in Congress, call for reduced spending on welfare initiatives, while others, typically the liberals, call for increases and expansions.

Respond to Review of Jue Yuan Vegetarian
by ThomasPDX
Review: This place is alright. No one there spoke more than very basic English. No English menu but extensive picture menu. Not sure what I ordered but it was decent. Might have been mushrooms or tofu but completely unsure. A little too spicy. Also, the waitress stood right by me from the moment she gave me the menu. I felt rushed and didn't know what I wanted.

YMMV: Illbleed
- Big Lipped Alligator Moment: The "Toy Hunter: Cork Goes to Hell" level, which recasts you as an action figure named Cork who returns home just in time to watch his owner die. His Fanservice-y girlfriend, Sexy Doll, is placed in the coffin along with the boy and ends up in Toy Hell. Despondent, Cork becomes a milkoholic, shoots up a bar full of singing eggs, goes to prison, is sentenced to execution, escapes prison through the Absurdly Spacious Sewer, finds a new owner, kills him, is placed in the coffin, ends up in Toy Hell, fights a Satanic (and animatronic) Sonic the Hedgehog, is nearly forced to fight said evil hedgehog forever due to a programming glitch, and escapes on a rocket. It's an entire subplot made up of BLAMs, none of which have anything to do with Illbleed's story.
- Lesser example: what the crap does the Cake From Hell have to do with anything?
- Even in one of the videos made to hype up the game, it cuts to him saying his name for no discernable reason and moves on without any reference to it again.
- Lesser example: what the crap does the Cake From Hell have to do with anything?
- Critical Dissonance: Critics disliked this game, but it has a decently sized Cult Following.
- Crosses the Line Twice: Just about everything. Killing an insane old man after stealing his son's possessions, murdering several people outside the attractions, and killing a child to be buried with it are among these moments, though the worst (best?) moment has to be Eriko's father approaching her in the true ending because she's naked.
- Crowning Moment of Funny: Stealing Cashman's remote from the operator of the level he first appears in, and using it to make him kill himself. ("Cashman's on fire!")
"Any prize for Woodpuppets?"Note: No prize for Woodpuppets
- Also, failing to grab Randy's brain before you rescue him results in Brainless Randy, who communicates entirely through hoots and grunts.
- Especially great on Killerman. Watching him try to solve a murder mystery while he can't even talk is just wonderful. It can be seen here.
- In the rulebook for Woodpuppets in "Woodman Hunting", they show teammates. Ignoring Randy's (which is simply "*&$#@?!"), there's Dosco Takagy's question and subsequent answer via rulebook:
- Also, failing to grab Randy's brain before you rescue him results in Brainless Randy, who communicates entirely through hoots and grunts.
- Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: Finding Mr. Banballow's diary entries written before the accident. He truly is proud of his son. Counts as a Tear Jerker as well.
- This image of Michael Reynolds and Eriko, which comes after beating the True Final Boss and staying after the credits.
- Crowning Music of Awesome: The ending credits theme, Time 2 Get Ill!. Some fans say the game is worth beating at least once to hear it. They're right you know.
- The surprisingly somber true ending credits music.
- Cult Classic
- Ear Worm: The hub theme music.
- Ensemble Dark Horse: Dummyman, a recurring enemy that appears in certain spots of the game. He appears to be one in universe as well, as movie posters advertising Dummyman movies are all over the place, and he even has a photo shop!
- Killerman to a lesser extent. The manual states that he has a movie series as well.
- Don't forget OHNOMAN, the most popular of the three final bosses. Mostly due to his name.
- Zodick The Hellhog is one of the games most well-known characters, and gets a fair amount of fanart.
- Randy seems to be the most well-liked among the protagonists, due to his bizarre behavior.
- Fridge Logic: In the bad ending, why doesn't Eriko use her vast riches to revive her dead friends at the Illbleed hospital? It's like she forgot it was there! Might be a case of Gameplay and Story Segregation though.
- Fridge Brilliance: Actually, she does exactly that. This is why Kevin is her new boyfriend in the true ending. She took the money, saved her friends, and decided to never go near anything scary ever again.
- Good Bad Bugs: Opening your map causes the enemies to freeze for a few seconds when you close it. Vital for avoiding tougher battles (like when you're a Woodpuppet).
- Harsher in Hindsight: In this game, one of the ways to die is shock death, where your heart pulse rises, and if it rises too high, you die. The creator of the game, Shinya Nishigaki, died of a heart attack years later...
- Inferred Holocaust: 100 people die each day trying to complete the Illbleed challenge. There's even a huge mortuary to back up the fact that thousands, if not millions, have already perished.
- Memetic Mutation: "Killerman is Killerman!"
- "You'll shit with fear!"
- "He was a loner anyway."
- Narm: JIMMAJIMMAJIMMAJIMMAJIMMA!
- "Let's go back to hell :D!"
- During the Woodpuppets opening narration:
Narrator: "Suddenly, a face appeared on the tree——and it swallowed good him. He was presumed —-lost in the wilderness or eaten by a bear. No one cared because he was a loner anyway."
- Listen to the opening narration of Killer Department Store, The narrator flubs his line. It's around 0:35 if you just want to get to it.
Narrator: "In his warped mi...In his warped mind..."
- Playing through the "Killerman" section as Randy without a brain. Whatever little bit of seriousness from that section is completely blown to bits.
Brainless Randy: "OOAGH CAHSUHSWAHHASUH HABUGLBLAHHH"Cunningham: "You must be one of those part-timers."
- Narm Charm: The rampant Narm is a big part of what makes the game so memorable to fans. For instance, most of the above also count as Funny Moments.
- David's story in level 2 is goofy as heck, but it's also sweet in a weird way; from the way he talks about her, you're made to think Rachel was his honest-to-goodness daughter for much of the stage.
- Nightmare Fuel: Make no mistake; there's a lot of very creepy and disturbing atmosphere underneath all the cheesy stuff. Particularly the grim, decaying remains of Banballow Hostel and the blood-drenched, dimly lit, but cheerfully decorated aisles of the Killer Department Store.
- The Morgue in Stage 5. Take a good look at the texture they used for the enormous pit full of corpses.
- Rewatch Bonus: In the intro, Eriko is being chased by a monster. If you play through the game again after getting the true ending, you realize what the monster is: It's Eriko's dad, Michael Reynolds!
- Scrappy Level: The Cutey Mary section of "Killer Department Store", especially the jump-rope, are notoriously irritating among fans of the game.
- The section in "Woodpuppets" where you become...a Woodpuppet.
- Scrappy Mechanic: Playable characters other than Eriko will fall down and crawl away from enemies for a long moment, allowing them to get many hits on you.
- The analog controls for movement mean you that have to push up gently to walk and briskly to run, which would be fine if you didn't have to release the analog stick completely to switch between the two.
- So Stupid It's Amazing: A large part of the game's cult appeal comes from how unapologetically bizarre it is.
- That One Boss: Trent The Tree in "Woodpuppets" is considered annoying by fans of the game, since you have to get through the aforementioned Woodpuppet section to fight him.
- The three Killer Worms you have to fight outside the produce aisles in stage 4. Presenting a moving target by darting around like a madman and landing single blows whenever you can is the only reliable way to beat them at all, and they can still very easily crowd around you even then.
- Bullstinger, the hardest of the three final bosses.
- Uncanny Valley: Henry, Cork's owner in Toy Hunter. Doesn't help that he mostly appears as a massive closeup of his detailed, unmoving face. His poor voice acting doesn't help much. It's likely intentional, given he's an animatronic in a park designed to scare people.
- What Do You Mean, It Wasn't Made on Drugs?: Every level has something WTF-worthy in it.
- Toy Hunter during which you end up in a Toy Story clone in which Woody becomes an alcoholic, murders innocent people, then tries to die so he can go to hell and be reunited with his girlfriend. It also involves a talking rocket ship, a haunted town, and singing eggs.
- The True Final Boss is Eriko's dad, Michael Reynolds, who melts into a puddle with his naked daughter wading through it as she fights his giant, eyeless melted head that shoots rainbow beams. Then the head splits open and reveals a flying brain tentacle monster. Woo!

Dryland Cotton Production CROP YIELDS

Artisan: Awudu Saaed"I am a friendly but quiet person, and when I was a kid I used to follow some friends back home after school. Their parents had a workshop where carvers, designers and finishers were always busy working, and I loved watching what they did and how they did it. Noticing my interest, I was given the opportunity to try my hands at sandpapering the carved items by observing the older people. As I improved, I began learning how to design and finish a product. I think that because I admired this work so much I was a fast learner.
"I had to drop out of school due to financial difficulties ñ mother was alone looking after us six children. I wanted to be able to help her, and so I decided to join the workshop full time. My younger brother also joined me, and together we decided to work very hard so we could send the rest of our siblings to school.
"The master at the workshop knew of our situation and allowed us to sell some of the works we were able to finish by ourselves. That way we could make some money and take it home to add it up to the little money mother was able to make.
"Our situation began to change gradually as I improved designing and finishing carved items. I was also taught how to carve masks, but I prefer designing and painting. I see myself more as a designer and a finisher. After serving a while under master Abdul Karim Star [Novica featured artist], I started to work on my own since 1996.
"Starting on my own was not easy at all, but what helped me was that while working for my master, the little money I made I used it to buy the basic tools that I needed. I used to travel by road to Senegal, Mali, and Burkina Faso to sell my work at fairs.
"I was determined to make it and also be able to take care of my siblings. The long travel paid off, my works were selling well, and I was able to put my siblings through school. This inspired me to bare all these risks of traveling.
"However one day, on route with a friend to an artisan fair in Dakar, we were in a serious accident. We were traveling by bus and we had quite a few carvings we intended to sell. But the bus was fully packed and could not climb the hill on the border between Burkina Faso and Mali. The driver decided to reverse down and we ended up somersaulting into a ditch.
"It was 2 am when it happened, and all was very dark. My friend and I werenít as seriously injured as others so we walked to the nearest village with two other men to try to get some help. We told our story to the police, who drove us back to the accident. The most injured people had already been taken to the hospital so the police just left us there! We picked our belongings, rescued the carvings that hadnít been damaged and we hitched a ride into Dakar.
"Fortunately our client there helped us ñ we had spent the money we had in medical expenses. Our client got in touch with other people and they bought all the remaining pieces, and that was just about enough for us to be able to get back home.
"Once home it all sort of hit me and I got into a bad state ñ I didn't leave home or work for a year. Eventually I realized our family finances were in danger and my brother needed help at the workshop. I went there and after seeing everyone work so hard I wanted to carve again. At first it was hard to stop thinking about the accident, but through carving I know I have overcome it.
"I have exhibited my work in Ghana's Trade Fair (in 2010 and 2011), and now I also train people as designers and finishers. Now three of these apprentices work with me while others have started their own workshops.
"My dream for the future is to further my education and expand my workshop to be able to train more people."

Official Wiki for the JAXP Project at Java.net
Introduction to JAXP
The Java API for XML Processing (JAXP) enables applications to parse, transform, validate and query XML documents using an API that is independent of a particular XML processor implementation. JAXP provides a pluggability layer to enable vendors to provide their own implementations without introducing dependencies in application code. Using this software, application and tool developers can build fully-functional XML-enabled Java applications for e-commerce, application integration, and web publishing.
JAXP is a standard component in the Java platform. JAXP 1.4 is a maintenance release of JAXP 1.3 with support for the Streaming API for XML (StAX). An implementation of the JAXP 1.3 specification is included in Java SE 5.0 and an implementation of JAXP 1.4 is in Java SE 6.0.

I am a tall, fit, fun family orientated guy. I love the outdoors. I have a boat and like to spend time out fishing. I surf when I get the chance.. I own a very successful tackle shop in North County. My 3 daughters mean the world to me but I am good at balancing them and my social life. I am most comfortable in jeans or shorts but I do clean up nicely. I have lived alone now for over 2 years and I am looking for someone to laugh with and enjoy both of our interests but mostly i am looking for someone to share time with and see where it leads us. I am looking for a long term monogamous relationship. The nice thing about this time in my life is that I have the time and the energy to give to someone to make that happen. I'm really not good at writing about myself so if you want to know something just ask.

Interim pastor will lead church through transition
Being born and raised in northwest Iowa helped ease the culture shock of coming to Gothenburg after many years of city life.So did a welcoming congregation at the Evangelical Free Church.
Doug Monkemeier retired after 40 years as a full-time minister with most of his time spent leading large congregations in or near cities such as Chicago, Seattle and Vancouver, British Columbia.
While retirement allowed for plenty of travel and relaxation, Monkemeier wasn't quite ready to give up his pastoral duties all together.
In 2011, he joined Interim Pastor Ministries and learned the ins and outs of guiding a congregation from one pastor to another.
That's how he got to Gothenburg in December as E-Free's interim pastor.
Monkemeier said as an interim pastor, his mission centers around five basic tasks: provide closure, aid in spiritual renewal, offer structural review, assist in developing a new vision and assembling a profile for a permanent pastor search.
"Part of the advantage is that I'm more of a consultant," Monkemeier said. "At the same time, I would hope that 40 years of pastoral experience counts for something."
The timeline for completing all five things is a tentative schedule that lasts six months to a year, he said.
"I've broken it down into quarters," he said, "and I've added a fifth quarter in case I have to go overtime."
Monkemeier said he has begun by looking at the church's history and current makeup to see how changes have affected the congregation.
"I'll take a look at where they've been, where they are now and where they want to be," he said.
At the same time, Monkemeier continues to carry on all of the pastoral duties for the church.
He said with a variety of youth activities, the E-Free church and its volunteers have made a strong impact on Gothenburg's young people.
"That's a tremendous ministry," he said. "We have lay ministers covering significant areas right now. The risk is that they'll get burned out."
Monkemeier said he hopes the church can hire both a youth minister and a church pastor before the end of the year.
"The church has had total turnover in staff," he said. "That's part of the transition that needs to be weathered."
Monkemeier earned his bachelor's degree from Moody Bible Institute in Chicago with a history degree from San Jose State.
He earned his master's in divinity from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, IL, and a doctorate in ministry from Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, CA.
Monkemeier and his wife, Merri, enjoy traveling, especially to see their oldest daughter and family in Amman, Jordan.
A younger daughter is in graduate school in Washington, living in her parents' home in Gig Harbor, WA.
In his spare time, Monkemeier enjoys sailing.

Crunchy Chocolate Biscotti
A few years ago, my dad — a man with a serious sweet tooth who dunked Oreos in his morning coffee — got an off-the-charts cholesterol report. My biggest challenge was to come up with a new morning dunker for Dad. For Father's Day, I worked up this biscotti recipe.

There will be millions of dollars spent between the senate and the governor's races this election cycle in Nebraska. Millions will be poured into television ads, radio, along with signs, newspaper, mailings and staff, all in an effort to get the attention of the voters.
Mike Foley is running a campaign for governor that would make even the most frugal among us proud. He and his wife Susan saved campaign signs from his first legislative race in 2000 and used them again for his campaign as state auditor. Now those same signs are popping up in yards across the state.
Mike is a true believer that every dollar you pay in taxes to the state of Nebraska should be spent in a way that is respectful of the taxpayer who earned that dollar. He is careful with his campaign funds. He is incredibly careful with your funds as state auditor.
Mike Foley is the best candidate for governor.

Jose Navarro played a MAJOR role in the independence of Texas but his role is too often over looked. Here you learn about what he did to help shape Texas. We could use more people like him today! I highly recommend a visit to this little gem.
I have been meaning to visit Casa Navarro for decades. I'm so glad I finally made the trip from Austin to San Antonio to visit this historical gem. If you are a Texas history aficionado you will truly appreciate the Navarro homestead as one of the oldest surviving buildings of old San Antonio. The docent, Nano was very helpful; When...
This important bit of Texas history was mercifully saved when an unfortunate urban renewal project in the 1960s destroyed the surrounding 'Laredito' neighbourhood, depriving this site of an appropriate physical context. Even in its isolation in the midst of vast parking lots and next to a prison it is well worth visiting. Jose Antonio Navarro, one of the signers of...
On this trip to San Antonio, I sought out the lesser known and visited sites for Texas history. Casa Navarro is a Texas Historical Site and contains 3 buildings dating back to the 1830's to the 1850's, including the Jose Antonio Navarro family home and a building which served as a mercantile building and his office. The site was saved...
I came to Casa Navarro before I went to the Greyhound to board my bus back to Dallas. The docent allowed me to leave my luggage in front..A very kind gesture. He suggested I look at the short film in the gift shop to indroduce us to Navarro. I am glad I did..We did NOT learn about him in Texas...
This site is located in a parking lot and right next to the prison.
We tried to visit it but it was closed. From outside it didn't look great.
It's close to the Market Sq.
Casa Navarro is an oasis in downtown San Antonio. There are 2 buildings on site that date back to the 1850s and one that dates to the 1830s. It is the home of Jose Antonio Navarro, one of only 2 Hispanic signers of the Texas Declaration of Independence in 1836. The exhibits are well done and the small site is...
Excellent reimagined visual displays bring Texas colonial era to life. Some artifacts in drawers invite investigation by children and adults. Historical interest plus space for children to explore. Huge improvement! Gift shop added.
This is a great place to learn about one of Texas founding fathers. Small place but worth the trip, great place to learn Texas history.

Thank you very much, Ioannis! I´ve been through your gallery and it´s beautiful! Best wishes from Brasil
good ones Guy and Conrad
For anyone wondering why I've stopped posting photos, and won't return even with google's statements that they aren't going to delete the website after all: I'm so freaking sick of finding my photos ripped off and used by others, mostly due to the way google spreads the images around without the copyright notice. Finding this image on the website of a freaking LAWYER today really is tough to top. http://robertecravenlaw.com/contact.html
No! You are not understanding! It's we, that have to thank you! I loved all pics you have made! I'm not a photographer! I'm only a person who likes, all God creation!! I didn't know how many ''arts'' God has create in the seabed! Thank you so much!! Hugs from Brasil! I bet you're a lovely person! Only a person like this, has that love for the nature, and has generosity in share all pics with everybody! Sorry my not so good English! :) Only a sensitive person, full of love in the heart, can have this love for nature! Make so amazing pics and share with everyone! God bless you Timo !!

2003 BMW 5 Series 530i 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 5M)
I picked up this Bimmer at a great price and I fell in love with it the second I sat down and started it. They come well equipped and ride awesome. I've had an Audi before and it was just too much to maintain. The more research I did the better I felt about getting a BMW. It's certified and has all of the records. Just enough pick up on the streets, but not a gas hog. I didn't like the body style of the 2004 so I went with this one. It's everything I hoped it would be.
AC, stereo, moonroof and the choice between manual or auto shifting.
I really have nothing except the cupholders could have been placed better... but that is far from my mind when I hit the road.
2003 BMW 5 Series 525i 4dr Sedan (2.5L 6cyl 5M)
Just recently, I happened to trade in a six months old Japanese coupe for this 5 year old German saloon. What a difference! This is my first personal BMW and although it has almost 60000 miles on it, it feels tight and responsive. In fact, I test drove an E60 530i before I bought this one, but it just did not feel right. The combination of the M Sport package, the Premium package and the manual transmission creates an extremely convenient, yet amazingly looking everyday driver. Navigation is handy, but costs money to keep up-to-date. If you prefer adrenaline pumped driving, better look for a 540i/M5, but if you do not require extreme performance, you are going to love this car!
The manual transmission, Xenon headlights, DSC, M Sport Package, ingenious part engineering (incredibly easy servicing of the vehicle), excellent fuel economy (for its class).
A way to prevent the annoying pebbles from entering behind the front brakes heat shields?
Just a splendid, intoxicating driving experience that had the hair on my head tingling for the first 2 months that I drove... BUT, OMG tires wore out at 15K, stabilizer bar, computer problems, display board problems surfaced at 3 yrs. $5K in repairs later (out of warranty on the listed items) and a few other "normal" expensive repairs and I am ready to sell it for a more reliable performance vehicle. Just frustrating to have to endure the financial and disappointing pain a $50,000 car should NOT give you. Be cautious when you purchase this one.
Fit and finish of the car. Handling, performance, style.
Very good build quality and performance. 93K and still no rattles, but rotors and heater are sounding worn out. Had computer chip go out under warranty, so reliability is not as good as expected for car at this price level. Dealer service was inconvenient. I have no regrets, but I would probably not buy another one new - mainly because I live too far from a dealer, and I don't like the new 5-series styling and high price.
Engine response, steering and handling - the German driving feel is addicting. Gas mileage of 28 mpg is great for this class of car.
Increase number of qualified service centers to perform warranty work. Reduce the road noise during normal driving.
We picked up A CPO 530i just off of lease. Records were clean & initially car lived up to the BMW standards. 3 months in the electrical system started going haywire (sensors) & has been a pain ever since. It has gotten to the point I contacted the CEO of BMWAG in Germany. Very disappointed they threw it back on dealer. It is the mfg. fault, not the dealer. At present working with dealer to roll out into another. Dealer is being very helpful & I hope for a resolution soon. Other than this the car is what you expect from a BMW.
What a great ride. Try turning off the ADC & take a corner. What a difference. The car is a pleasure to drive. The only problem I have is keeping an eye on the speed! The ride is so smooth. Also the handling in inclement weather is flawless. Also I am alive today because of the dgn. of BMW
Cup holders!

Pound for pound Hospital's best producers have come to show you their muscle. Make sure you have got ringside seats as Cyantific bring you two dancefloor TKOs.
Compromising is for the weak as "Disconnected" hits you like a Panzer tank division. 16 bars of bongo boogie is all that's needed by way of an introduction before an angry barrage of sub bass and metallic stabs which hit you hard. Already massive amongst DJs like Andy C – this featured on his recent Drum & Bass Arena mix CD and has had fans chomping at the bit for this metal on metal grind out. Flipping things over for "Serpent" – straight out of the Jungle. A melee of bass and beats seems to have enraged the animals as this one drops like a knife fight in the monkey pit at London zoo. 'Roided up to the max, this is a beefier, harder Cyantific, Scared!? You should be!

The 35 Hottest Female Basketball Players Will Wow You
I'll start this off by saying I might be one of the biggest enemies of women's basketball out there. If you have ever had to call a bad women's basketball game, you would understand where I am coming from. However, I can concede that there are some tremendous basketball players out there that just so happen to be female. Today, we are going to bring you a list of 35 of the hottest female basketball players in the world.
When I say world, I really mean world. There are a lot of different backgrounds on this list and that is a good thing. Switching things up never hurt anyone, so this list should be a good one for most people. There are plenty of American born players but I think the amount of foreigners will help make this list the best that it can possibly be.
The Olympics in 2012 really helped some of the girls on the list. Not only could they play on a world stage, a lot more people ended up knowing who they were. That is certainly not a bad thing for anyone.
That being said, there will be people that are not too happy with this list. If you feel we missed someone, let us know in the comment section. That is one way to make sure that this list improves every single time that it gets done. If you are not getting better, you are going to end up getting worse in the long run.
With all of that taken care of, let us get into the list. These women are great on the court and they are also great looking. Sounds like a pretty good combination if you ask me. Take your time and enjoy the 35 hottest female basketball players in the world.
Candice Wiggins
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why Wiggins ends up on this list. Hot AND successful.
Maya Moore
Speaking of successful, Moore wins everywhere she goes. Simply one of the best to ever lace up a pair of basketball shoes.
Abby Bishop
One of the key cogs on Team Australia, Bishop is a common member on lists like this. Shouldn't be hard to see why.
Sue Bird
Bird is another one who can claim that she is one of the best ever. She's not bad to look at, either.
Swin Cash
Cash models when she's not playing basketball. Plus, she has one of the best names in sports.
Ilona Korstin
Korstin is drop-dead gorgeous. There's a reason she's on this list, folks.
Svetlana Abromsimova
Russia just keeps on pumping out the great looking basketball players. Has to be their best export next to vodka.
Anna Petrakova
Elena Delle Donne
You definitely need to watch Delle Donne play ball this year. She gets double and triple teamed, but she still puts up huge numbers.
Natalya Zhedik
Russia keeps pumping out the attractive basketball players. Zhedik is no exception.
Emanuela Salopek
Marija Vrsaljko
Although there is zero chance I could pronounce this name, Vrsaljko is a great basketball player. She's also fairly attractive.
Tiina Sten
Sten may not play on a team that gets a lot of hype, but we should probably recognize her. She is simply that good.
Skylar Diggins
Diggins is probably the face of college basketball right now. With a face like that, no one is going to complain.
Maria Stepanova
Stepanova is 6'8. That is simply massive for a women's basketball player. I'm in shock just reading that.
Ashley Robinson
Svetlana Abromsimova
Kayte Christensen
Christensen deserves a spot on this list. I have the feeling you can see why.
Alysha Clark
Dawn Evans
Evans is simply superb on the court. Off the court, she's one of the best looking players out there.
Jennifer Lacy
Candace Parker
I still think Parker can beat her husband in 1 on 1. Sheldon Williams isn't that good.
Yelena Leuchanka
Keyla Snowden
Snowden may not be known by a lot of people, but that should change. She can hoop with the best of them and she's great looking.
Tiffany Suarez
Caroline Doty
Erin Phillips
Katerina Elhotova
Katerina Zohnova
Meghan Gardler
Antonija Misura
You not going to knock Misura off the top of this list. There is simply no way that it can be done.
Keyla Snowden
Ruth Riley
Scholanda Dorrell
Tugce Canitez
