"For the last 6 months my new obsession/favorite accessory has been the fitted baseball cap. The attention it brings from men and women alike is pretty surprising, I guess because the hat is unexpected! I like to wear it with ultra fem dresses especially to some place like a posh nightclub."

A veterinary technician is responsible for charting medical data such as the animal's weight, eating habits, symptoms, or any other concerns the owner may have. The information taken by the technician is given to the veterinarian to help them effectively make a diagnosis. The veterinarian technician also helps keep the animal calm while it is being examined by the vet and secure the animal while the veterinarian administers any shots or other required treatments. The veterinarian technician also handles laboratory and diagnostic testing such as urine, stool, and blood samples; they also may administer certain medicines and explain their uses, benefits, and potential side effects to owners.Read More...
Other veterinary technician duties include prepping the animal for surgery, taking x-rays, inserting an IV, administering anesthesia, assisting in surgeries, and monitoring animals' post-surgical recovery. They also keep owners informed of how the procedure went and how their animal did during and after their procedure. They must be empathetic and able to listen to pet owners' concerns and questions.
Veterinary technicians may work in a private clinic or animal hospital, but they also work in environments such as research laboratories, zoos ,and animal rescues or shelters. Most veterinary technicians work full time, and it's possible that their schedules could be irregular depending on the clinic; some veterinary clinics are open evenings and weekends, and some are even open 24 hours a day. An associate's degree typically is required for a veterinary technician.

Veterinary Technicians might see a strong upturn in salary after transitioning into upper-level roles such as Veterinarian, a seemingly popular career choice. People currently working in the latter position report a noticeably higher median income of $70K per year. The most common next step for a Veterinary Technician is to become a Registered Veterinary Technician or a Registered Nurse. The former position pays an additional $4K per year on average, and the latter position pays $26K more per year.
VCA Animal Hospital, Banfield, The Pet Hospital, VCA Antech, Veterinary Office, and BluePearl Veterinary Partners are among the top companies that take on many Veterinary Technicians. BluePearl Veterinary Partners offers the highest compensation with a median salary of $34K. Other leaders in compensation levels are VCA Antech at $32K, Vca, Antech, Inc. at $29K, and VCA Animal Hospital, where Veterinary Technicians annually earn $28K.
Banfield, The Pet Hospital doles out the lowest salaries in town — median pay is $25K — not to mention workers can only make as much as $32K and scope of pay is rather limited. Workers also receive paychecks lighter than average at Veterinary Office ($26K), Pet Vet Animal Hospital ($26K), and Animal Clinic Inc ($28K).
Veterinary Technicians report using a deep pool of skills on the job. Most notably, facility with Emergency Medicine, Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and Critical Care are correlated to pay that is significantly above average, leading to increases of 29 percent, 9 percent, and 4 percent, respectively. Most people who know Anesthesia also know Phlebotomy and Medicine / Surgery.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Veterinary Technicians do not generally earn higher incomes from more experience in the field. Respondents with less than five years' experience take home $26K on average. In contrast, those who have been around for five to 10 years earn a noticeably higher average of $30K. The average pay reported by folks with 10 to 20 years of experience is around $34K. More than 20 years of experience mean a somewhat bigger median paycheck of $35K, but it's not much more than what less experienced people make.
For Veterinary Technicians, working in the bustling city of Boston has its advantages, including an above-average pay rate. Veterinary Technicians can also look forward to large paychecks in cities like New York (+34 percent), Seattle (+21 percent), Los Angeles (+15 percent), and San Diego (+11 percent). The lowest-paying market is St. Louis, which sits 17 percent below the national average. Employers also pay below the national average in San Antonio (15 percent lower) and Austin (9 percent lower).

29 year old woman | Winter Springs, FL, USA | Seeking men 26-33 within 50 miles
Active within 24 hours
I am looking for someone I could someday build a family with. I am a Christian and would love to find someone who upholds similar values.
I am a genuine, honest, and caring person. I love children and I love to help others. I guess this is why I decided to become a school psychologist. Being able to put a smile on a child's face, makes me smile. I prefer to have a few close friends over many acquaintances. I definitely prefer quality over quantity in that aspect. I consider myself lucky in that department. I have developed some great friendships along the way and am grateful for each and every one of them. I like to go dancing every once in a while, but I prefer to do more low-key types of activities on the regular (e.g. beach, movies, bowling, karaoke etc.) I am old-fashioned when it comes to dating. I still believe in chivalry and expect my dates to act like gentlemen. I completed my Bachelor's in Psychology at University of Central Florida. I graduated April 2012 from Florida State University, earning my Master's and Education Specialist degrees in School Psychology. I have been working for almost three years as a school psychologist for a local school district. I love working with children and feel quite fulfilled when it comes to the career aspect of my life. I am now at a place in life where I'm hoping to settle down and build a family in the nearby future and would like to find someone I can do that with.

I really enjoy going to the beach. I really like Cocoa beach and Daytona beach. It is such a peaceful way to relax. I also enjoy going out to dance every once in a while, especially latin dancing.
University of Central Florida, Orlando, FL
I like all sorts of music. My favorites are merengue, bachata, reggaeton, and today's hits; but am open to other genres. Favorite shows: Friends, How I Met Your Mother, and Big Bang Theory. Favorite Foods: Italian food, ribs, and cheesecake.
Going to the movies is my favorite thing to do. I especially love horror films & thrillers. I can easily spend an entire day at the beach; it's just so relaxing. I am not a major fan of football, but I absolutely love watching my Noles play :)

Sichuan Xilin Fengteng General Aviation will buy two Eurocopter helicopters, an EC120 B and an EC135.
The aircraft will be used for photography, transporting passengers, fighting forest fires, emergency medical services, charters and training, said Eurocopter. The two helicopters will be delivered by the middle of 2012.
"Based in Deyang, Sichuan province, Xilin Fengteng became Eurocopter China's first customer in Southwest China," said Eurocopter. "This success is a result of Eurocopter China's expansion efforts that included the opening of the Chengdu liaison office for the Southwestern region in early 2011 - one of its seven offices around the country."
Eurocopter added that it is cooperating with the Civil Aviation Flight University of China (CAFUC) in Guanghan to develop a series of helicopter training programmes.
"This acquisition contract will further reinforce Eurocopter's presence in Sichuan province and the Southwest of China."
The EC120 B is a light helicopter powered by a single Turbomeca Arrius 2F engine. It can carry one pilot and four passengers, and has a maximum take-off weight (MTOW) of 1,715kg.
The EC135 is powered by two Turbomeca Arrius 2b2 engines. It has an MTOW of 2,950kg and can carry one pilot and six to seven passengers.

Definitely a beautiful location with the loch just feet from my verandah.Mountains,birds,wildlife, all on the doorstep just looking out of the windows.
The lodge itself was very spacious with 3 bedrooms all with full size beds.Really comfy ones too.There are heaters in all rooms which you definitely need if you go early or late season.
Plenty of room for 6 people in the lounge diner.Watch the electric used though as it is charged at the end.
One bedroom heated from 8-10pm for 4 nights, the emersion heater on....was £4.50.
Central for Nevis Range, Fort Augustus Caledonian Canal lock staircase,Nessieland,Cairngorm mountains.
Well maintained park but staff not always available when you need them and few and far between.
Great for the dog except she had to be on lead all the time which was a great shame.
Had a great week will definitely be going back a lot more to explore.
Terrible cabin smelt like damp dog, hoover stunk of sick and we had to use a bucket to flush the toilet. Utterly disgraceful accommodation. Staff refused to change/ help then tried to charge me £30 electricity on leaving for a final kick in the teeth.
I recommend this lodage
Very relaxing break
In general we were happy with our stay in the Great Glen Water Park. The facilities on site were rather diappointing - the pool was smaller than expected, and the bar only opened on one evening (Saturday).
The park is beautifully situated next to a loch, but it was necessary to drive to get to any walking trails.
Thoroughly enjoyed the holiday
When we went to reception to ask about walks in the area the staff weren't very helpful. but the staff were pleasant on arrival and departure.
We booked a lodge facing the loch, after a travel of 12 hours we were given an old lodge overlooking the shrubs which was worn out. We took it the staff at the reception who was initially not too keen to change the lodge but eventually gave us one with lovely views of the loch. We had to pay electricity charges seperately as it was not included in the price. Overall a good experience
Fab holiday, felt the sports were rather pricey for a large family - apart from that 10 out of 10
Lovely location. Very peaceful. Smashing site. Totally recommend for a quiet getaway.
The place is in a fantastic location, however the Site is tired and in need of a dramatic overhaul and facelift.
The staff require proper training, no one there knows how to deal with the public, the food is awful, all prepackaged and tastes like cardboard.
We had an lovely time at the Great Glen Water Park, the views were amazing, the lodges were clean and tidy and the few minor problems we had were dealt with quickly. We were lucky enough to have the swimming pool to ourselves every morning (it`s not very big but adequate)
The lodge was quite basic with minimal kitchen equipment and no information on how to operate the heating/oven/microwave etc. Bathroom suite very dated. However, the view and setting made up for this. Wonderful sitting looking at the birds and the lake. Swimming pool lovely and warm too. The staff were a bit serious but helpful apart from the cleaners coming into our lodge 30 minutes before checkout time despite the fact we were still there!
We had a great time. We used lodge as a base to visit other areas (Loch Ness, Mallaig, Skye, Inverness etc) Lodge was roomy and very comfortable with excellent view of the Loch. We had 3 bedrooms (5 adults, a toddler and 2 dogs) , spacious lounge & dining area for us all. Kitchen is well equipped (although our toaster only toasted 1 side at a time which toom forever!). Bathroom took ages to fill after each flush - we contacted reception - they sent someone to look at it and we were told it was fine - it just took a long time to fill (it needed a part... my other half looked at it before we reported it - hes been qualified as a plumber for almost 20 years!) It still worked though - just really slow!
There is an enclosed balcony which was great for our dogs and toddler! My little girl loved feeding all the birds! Swan, ducks, finches, Robin etc... scenery was fab too!! There is a small outdoor play area but we didn't get a chance to use - the weather wasn't on our side & most days we didn't return until dark. You can hire books & dad's and there is also a swimming pool on site. Great value for money. We can't rate restaurant or bar as we didn't use but seemed popular. We will definitely return! (The electricity rate was very reasonable too - our lodge was always nice and warm yet was only £15 for 4 nights / 5 days electric!)

Your driving rule
What is the longest drive you'll do for day trips before you consider moving to another location?
What is the longest drive you'll do for day trips before you consider moving to another location?
There is long in terms of distance, and there is long in terms of time. In Europe windy, hilly and narrow roads can make a relatively short distance into a long ride.
Two hours.
About 1 Hour is long enuf for a turnarounder otherwise I plan on staying the night there.
And another gd ques. max travel time to destination by car no more than 3 hrs. At 4 hrs I am wiped out/fatigued and feel like I have not had a vacation day. Pacing oneself is very imp.
I'll consider two hours ,and I would probably go for one and a half hours. But one hour or less is ideal.
2 hours max to one particular site, but we may spend the entire day driving to multiple sites before heading back to our base. 6 hours (driving time) for our longest drive to our next location - assuming that we will actually take most of the day when you include lunch, short sightseeing break, etc. And for both of the above we don't do 2 long driving days in a row. So the day we drove to Assisi and back was followed by a few days of very close in sites. And our very long drives are followed by 2-3 nights in the one spot.
I'd say two hours each way is the absolute max for me. I think it's better to move than lose more than four hours of your day to driving.
Two hours maximum with as little night driving as possible. Prefer to leave early in the morning rather than returning back late in the evening. Nothing worse, for me, than to get lost and it's dark out. Don't enjoy that after a long day.
If you're on the autostrada 3 hrs is fine.

Going from Pushkin Square to Nikitsky Gate along the line of the old ramparts destroyed in the late 18C, there is the Pushkin Theatre (at n° 23), the Pushkin café and the Select restaurant (at n° 26). Also there is a statue of the famous couple he formed with Natalia Goncharova in front of the Church of the Ascension, showing them at their wedding in 1831.

AES Convention Papers Forum
The Relative Importance of Speech and Non-Speech Components for Preferred Listening Levels
In a prior paper, the authors reported on a listening test that attempted to establish the relative importance of speech and non-speech components of a mixed soundtrack when matching loudness to reference audio items. That paper concluded that listeners match loudness by overall content rather than by the loudness of the speech or non-speech components. This paper reports on a follow-up listening test which attempts to establish the relative importance of speech and non speech components in setting preferred listening level without any external reference. The results indicate that while speech levels are set more consistently than non-speech levels, listeners tend to set the overall levels more consistently than either of these components.

nice z brush stuff, that torso could use some smoothing on top of those clay tubes tho , but nice anatomy on it, and i really dig that akuma head. I think the Hans Teeuwan portrait is the best one because of the way its painted, the brush strokes seem to be more opaque and less layered than the others , also the range of tones is a lot better. Keep it up

As always, if you are rich, and have taken the depositer's money, you are not a "tick", but if you are Haredi, you are a drain on the resources of the nation, of course. Sweetheat loans and special arrangnents for spme, well, that adavnces the nation are met with silence, but stipends to Torah Scholars, and allottments to children, and other weak sectors of the economy must be cut for the sake of a healthy nation.

Discussion in 'Literature' started by TypoCelchu, Oct 30, 2012.
no didn't someone mention Katarn or something. Is he featured in the new movies?
he is in for sure... but probably under an alias, deep undercover on a mission with a different look... kinda.. right? right?
Kyle Katarn has real work to do; he doesn't have the time to save the galaxy from silly emperors and the like.
Indeed. They're confused. Or, they're ignorant of the facts. Anybody know how many copies of EU books were sold in Japan, alone? Or how many printings of each book? The Thrawn Trilogy is so popular, that it was printed and sold as one large book just last year. Bah! Trying to post anything even remotely EU-related on the Ep7 board is a complete waste of time, for lack of an intelligent response. Most of the threads on that board are utterly ridiculous, anyway. Darth Boba's EU thread has been hijacked by EU haters, and any attempt at an intelligent discussion on said thread is useless. Still...some of it is good for a laugh!
JJ and Mike better include Chewbacca in the ST, or he will rip their arms off. Oh wait, he can't, BECAUSE HE'S DEAD! But without Chewbacca, millions of "casual fans" will be totally confused and Disney/LFL will lose billions of dollars!
I remember hearing the books were discontinued selling there
On a related note, I'd love to see a poll of how many SW fans are under the impression that decanonization would have any effect on the continued publishing of TTT.
Well, I poked the bear. First time I've been in that forum in quite some time. Let's see what happens...
Get this: a quick search reveals that Vector Prime alone has sold just over 10,000,000 copies since its release in 1999....!
That's a bit more than 20 fans.
Also there's this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_books#At_least_100_million_copies
Those 20 fans sure have a lot of money to spend.
Well certainly a lot more than the Twilight fans seem to have.
Have there really been 300+ books? Or is that also short stories/young readers/etc?
That includes everything, I believe. There's about 100 adult books.
Of course, we just couldn't compete with Harry Potter, oh wait, I am a Harry Potter fan too, well if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
IIRC, there's way more than 100 adult books. I mean, if you're going to call stuff like Jedi Trial "adult".
that depends
do we include Jedi Academy Trilogy as "adult"?
At one point I actually counted... for the record I'm considering "adult" whatever is blue on this list. Too busy to count right now (only reason I'm even here is because I'm supposed to be working on a paper and am in the middle of zoning off ), but I seem to remember there was something like 130.
"What would you do without me?"
"I'd be a content old soft-core porn star!"
"Blue" and "adult" do usually go together, yes.
Looks like the Disney buyout as taken a toll on Star Wars: 1313.
Kind of odd, I thought when Disney bought Lucasarts they said that current projects would be safe.
I don't trust kotaku
By now, I'd have thought 1313 was all but developed (albeit, it hasn't met my original prediction of a 1/3/13 release date), so seems odd that they'd pull the plug this late in the development cycle and it all have just been wasted money.
Maybe it's too dark for them and the protagonist needs to be switched to Ahsoka.
Sounds more like they have not actually done anything with it since December.
It's happened before (Battlefront III).
Oh well then. We just have to wait another 3-5 years before we get all the cancelled stills and patchy footage up on youtube.
My eyes! My eyesssss!

32 year old woman | Chico, CA, USA | Seeking men 28-43 within 50 miles
A lover of simple pleasures.
If you're looking for someone with the brain of a supermodel and the body of a scientist, look no further! Here I am. My name is Maria, and I am a Japanese/Mexican exotic gourmet blend. An exhaustive account of all the facets of my awesomeness would be impractical—nay, impossible—so here are the wave tops. I've spent a lot of time in South Africa raising and rehabilitating orphaned baboons. Whoa! Did you just fall out of your seat because you are so amazed? Calm down, partner. I'm just getting warmed up here. So let's see… I was once featured on Animal Planet, so yes, I do consider myself a celebrity (very famous). I studied yoga in India. (Shout out to all my mad-smart Subcontinent homies!) I graduated from Chico State with a degree in something. I once woke up while working in the Costa Rican jungle with a tarantula in my bed, and I didn't even care. That's right. I didn't even care. It's because I'm a world-class badass, and I knew that the tarantula would get the hell out of there once he recognized my face (very famous). Once when I was a teenager and I worked at a movie theater, Kevin Mitchell—the 1989 National League MVP (duh!), came up to buy some popcorn from me. I was like, "Hey, you were my favorite player when I was a kid." He came back like he was all offended and said, "Were?" So I was like, "That'll be $107, please." I also know how to properly use a semicolon. If you are one of those unfortunate souls that didn't already know that a semicolon is used to join two closely related independent clauses, then I'm sorry that you'll never find true happiness. In all seriousness, I'm not as boisterous as the above paragraph might lead you to believe; I just thought I'd liven things up on here. In reality, I'm an ardent appreciator of simplicity, calm, and balance. I particularly welcome those into my life who actively endeavor to cultivate a compassionate heart towards all, for I truly believe that is the key to happiness. Every day I take time to create a better me. I'd like to meet someone who not only appreciates that, but also makes his own effort to be an ever-better version of himself. AN IMPORTANT NOTE: If you smoke pot, I'm sure you are a lovely person, but I have no interest in dating you, so please save us both some time and don't contact me. This is a Drug Free Zone. Muchas Gracias.

Weekend Rhymes
Whoo-hoo, it's the weekend! I know, I know, the 40-hour work-week is a patriarchal construct, so celebrating weekends is merely playing into the system—but tell that to my bar tab...
Anyway, here is a bit of poetic frivolity to kick off your Fri-Sat-Sun. We welcome your beautiful end rhymes, alliteration, and general cleverness in the comments section below. Keep in mind, kids, this is just for kicks, so keep your Weekend Verse contributions restricted to short-form. And no, Bitch still does not accept poetry submissions—evah.
First, a limerick:
There once was a lass, her name Palin
Whose VP campaign got to flailin'
She started to wink
Her bid, it did sink
Now her boat back to Alaska is sailin'
And what would Friday be without haiku?:
Oh, Rachel Maddow
Why all the Estee Lauder?
Gender sure is weird.

Jonanna, you are a poet!
And I didn't even know it.
You are hilarious. These poems are the perfect kickoff to the weekend.

A movie directed by Phil Morrison
Williams plays Andrew, a robot programmed for domestic chores and sold to an upper-middle-class family, the Martins, in the year 2005. The family patriarch (Sam Neill) recognizes and encourages Andrew's uncommon characteristics, particularly his artistic streak, sensitivity to beauty, humor, and independence of spirit. In so doing, he sets Williams's tin man on a two-century journey to become more human than most human beings.
As adapted by screenwriter Nicholas Kazan, the movie's scale is novelistic, though Columbus isn't the man to embrace with Spielbergian confidence its sweeping possibilities. Instead, the Home Alone director shakes off his familiar tendencies to pander and matures, finally, as a captivating storyteller. But what really makes this film matter is its undercurrent of deep yearning, the passion of Andrew as a convert to the human race and his willingness to sacrifice all to give and take love. Williams rises to an atypical challenge here as a futuristic Everyman, relying, perhaps for the first time, on his considerable iconic value to make the point that becoming human means becoming more like Robin Williams. Nothing wrong with that. --Tom KeoghAndrew Martin (Williams) is a household android whose intended function is thrown for a loop when he begins to feel genuine human emotions. Over the next two centuries the resulting dealings with his adopted family and new acquaintances provide the film with ample opportunities to raise important questions about individual human existence, as Andrew seeks to become human. Based on the Isaac Asimov story of the same name.

Great Expectations and the End of the Depression
|December 2005 Number 234
|JEL classification: E52, E63
Author: Gauti B. Eggertsson
This paper argues that the U.S. economy's recovery from the Great Depression was driven by a shift in expectations brought about by the policy actions of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. On the monetary policy side, Roosevelt abolished the gold standard and—even more important—announced the policy objective of inflating the price level to pre-depression levels. On the fiscal policy side, Roosevelt expanded real and deficit spending. Together, these actions made his policy objective credible; they violated prevailing policy dogmas and introduced a policy regime change such as that described in work by Sargent and by Temin and Wigmore. The economic consequences of Roosevelt's policies are evaluated in a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with sticky prices and rational expectations.

Hiya folks... I just purchased a Raleigh Twenty folder that will be my next bike build project. I am going to end up "hot rodding" this particular bike, much the same as had Huw has with his. He is going to be a valuable source for my build project. I'm going to put together a web site to provide a "blow by blow" during the build for anyone who may be interested.
Anyway, if I can figure it out, I will include a pic here of what the R-20 looked like when I first got it.
Thanks folks!

Missouri ready to apply to SEC soon Missouri applying to the SEC is "inevitable and imminent" according to a report by Pete Thamel, of the New York Times. A source with direct knowledge of Missouri's plans informed Thamel that the university is in the process of applying for membership to the SEC, saying that the decision to apply is "inevitable and imminent," but did not have an exact timeframe to share. Thamel reports that Missouri's Board of Curators will meet at the end of the week and it is expected they will discuss the procedure to leave the Big 12 and apply to the SEC. According to the report, Missouri expects there to be little standing in the way of securing enough votes from SEC presidents to join the conference. Previous reports have suggested that Missouri may not have the support needed to be accepted in to the conference. Missouri would be the SEC's 14th member. The possibility of losing Missouri may come as news to Big 12 commissioner Chuck Neinas, who has said r...

Polar Bear

Placement: Leg
I tattooed this Polar bear at the recent Liverpool tattoo convention. Thanks to my client Neil for sitting like a champ on the painful area of the back of the thigh! This piece was based off of a CGI by Marcos De Moraes. Neil had really loved the image for some time, so it was a real pleasure to be able to do this piece for him. Neil has a great collection going on his leg which will eventually turn into a full leg sleeve.

Perfect as a drizzle over ice cream or angel food cake, we imagine that it would taste divine over baked apples or peaches, warm from the oven.

Customer Reviews of Kingston 16GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive - 2 Pack (8GB x 2)
Awesome Deal2/22/2014
I have used Kingston Products over the years and have always found them to be of the highest quality. I found this to be a terrific deal on 8GB twin packs. I wish I would have purchased more. received in excellent condition.
It is good for the price.9/4/2013
Nothing exciting, just works fine. Good value.
Best Buy!7/22/2013
It is the best product that I experienced few years back when I bought one 2GB of same brand from local store then I needed more space as expected buy.com now rakuten had a great deal for this 'perfect in my situation' product. I just jumped on it. Great deal with no shipping...no one can beat this.
Works Fine6/25/2013
I needed an 8GB stick to hold an OS X boot volume. I reformatted the stick to Mac OS, loaded the disk image, and I'm off to the races. I like that there's no cap to lose.
Not working5/29/2013
Videos play for 5 minutes and stops. Not at all working. Not worth buying
good price, unwanted software3/18/2013
These Kingston drives work just fine, and a bargain to boot. [No pun intended]. I purchase flash drives frequently as the price per Gb is dirt cheap these days. They're great for sharing information with friends or for a run to the copy store for a printing job. Moving files between my new computer and old is very convenient and simple. The extraneous software Kingston adds might help some people and annoy others, [thus the loss of a star from me]. I deleted it, no big deal with a few clicks. It's not enough to slow you from grabbing this deal, a good bang for your buck. And no tears if you misplace them.
Great item!3/13/2013
These are nice little storage devices. I like the swivel enclosure.
Great price for quality product!1/3/2013
Got these at a great price... respected Manufacturer. SOlidly built and they work great. My kids are using them for school projects, (Great that they do not have a cap as they always lose those).
very good price.

Excellent product. Great ease of use in transferring files. Would definitely utilize this brand again for future needs!!!!

Among the problems that the current financial stringency has brought home to American higher education, none are more pressing than those underlying a clear understanding of the field of service that may appropriately be maintained by the individual college or university. In recent years the growth of student enrolments and the comparative ease with which funds could be secured have led institutions to increase their offerings without due regard to the possibility that at some time they might find themselves unable to maintain so expanded a service. The question whether expansion at one institution would result in unwarrantably duplicating the work of others appears to have been seldom if ever considered. The present economic situation has checked this movement sharply. Universities and colleges in increasing numbers are now asking just how they severally may best fit themselves into an adequate but economical system of higher education to serve a state,

Spanish Pumpkin and Bean Soup
|To Taste
|1 Cup (16 tbs), dried
|White beans
|1 Cup (16 tbs), dried
|2 Quart
|Olive oil
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs)
|Yellow onion
|1 Large, chopped
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs), diced
|Sweet paprika
|1 Tablespoon
|2 , peeled
|1 Pinch (steeped in 1/4 cup hot chicken)
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|Bread slice
|1 , cut in half
|2 Clove (10 gm)
|Sherry vinegar
|2 Tablespoon
|Coarsely chopped
|1 1⁄2 Cup (24 tbs), peeled
|Butternut squash
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|3 , halved
|Green beans
|1⁄2 Pound, trimmed
|Ground pepper
|To Taste
Pick over the chickpeas and white beans, and discard any misshapen beans and stones. Rinse the chickpeas and beans and drain. Place in a bowl, add water to cover generously and let soak overnight, then drain.
In a saucepan over high heat, bring the water to a boil. Add the chickpeas and beans and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the chickpeas and beans are tender, about 1 hour.
Meanwhile, in a sauté pan over medium heat, warm 2 Tbs. of the olive oil. Add the onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, until tender and translucent, about 10 minutes. Stir in the ham and paprika, mixing well, and then mix in the tomatoes. Cook for 10 minutes to blend the flavors. Add the saffron and stock to the pan, mix well and set aside.
In another sauté pan over medium heat, warm the remaining 6 Tbs. olive oil. Add the almonds, bread and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the almonds, bread and garlic to a mortar or a small food processor. Grind with a pestle or process to a paste. Add the vinegar, mixing well. Set aside.
After the chickpeas and white beans have cooked for 1 hour, add the pumpkin and pears and simmer for 10 minutes. Finally, stir in the tomato-onion mixture, the green beans and the bread mixture, and simmer until the green beans and pumpkin are tender and the flavors are blended, 10 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Ladle into warmed bowls and serve immediately. Serves 6 to 8.

Shareholders don't always need to be treated equally in U.S. acquisitions. This year's largest leveraged buyout is a poster child for this proposition.
A group led by BC Partners is buying PetSmart Inc. for more than $8.2 billion, or $83 in cash for all the shares. Well, not quite all the shares. Longview Asset Management LLC, which controls about a 9% stake in PetSmart, got an opportunity to roll some of its shares into the post-buyout company. Read More »

We have a duplicate record for Abel Sapp
yours - Abel Sapp #9056635 IL
mine - Abel Sapp #101103102
Either you can copy all my information onto yours because yours was put in first or I will link both wives to mine and you can delete yours. His obit says he was buried in Hicks Cemetery. I found a death record for his second wife Clara so I added her to Hicks also.
Let me know what you want to do

Hi! When will you add the other Sandford and Levings graves in Edgar Cemetery? I have photos I'd like to add when you do (e.g., Hiram Sandford, Sarah Sandford Levings, George E. Levings, Edward Bruce Sandford. The Sandford monument includes names and dates of other family members than the ones you've already added; and there are individual markers for these family members. Thanks! Kudos for all the hard work you've done so far!

Helen Hawk
Find A Grave Memorial# 78729933
Spring Hill Cemetery and Mausoleum
Vermilion County
Illinois, USA
I am curious where you found the burial record for Helen because I have yet to find any online index for this cemetery, other than this one, which does not list her because coan.net is only up to block 17 in his index:
I am thinking this is actually the grave of Ellen (Cochran) Hawk who was born in Ohio, where she married John Hawk in 1851, then moved to Illinois.
Any time you can spare to help me would be greatly appreciated. Ellen Cochran has been a brick wall for me for years, and you may have smashed through it.

Thank you so much for your helping others through your work with Find A Grave. For people like me who because of age and health can no longer visit cemeteries, you have certainly made a difference. Thank you for your photos which help us visualize the cemeteries. Your unselfishness in putting all of these things on line to help others is a great thing. God bless you in all your endeavors to help others.

Walker Family Cemetery (2)
Walker Family Cemetery appears twice on the Cemetery list and I can't see any difference that would make two of the Memorials (Samuel Walker 1750-1826 Find A Grave#10842271 and Phebe Green Walker 1750-1829 Find A Grave#10842276) show up under a second listing. If anyone used the first Walker Cem. list which shows 15 memorials they would not know about the other 2 burials. Am I overlooking something or is it a glitch? Thanks for taking a look.

4 of 4 (100%) reviewers would recommend this product to a friend
Pros: Value for money
Cons: none
"We obviously inherited the old built under oven with the house. I say old but it was in fact newly installed by the builder who refurbished the property just prior to us purchasing the house. It was functional but basic in that it did not include a programable timer, hence the nice new Smeg double oven.
I installed the oven on the day it was delivered and my wife has turned in to, I am happy to say, the cake baker from heaven. Her comments include how consistent the temperature within the main oven is, how large the main oven is and that she is over the moon with the fact that we can actually use the top oven as an oven rather than just for grilling.
All in all an excellent product from an outstanding maker supplied by a first rate company I would not hesitate in recommending to all.

My only problem is the temperature control. It's very hard to decide quite what temperature you have the oven on. So far things have been hit and miss compared to my old oven. Roast potatoes seem to have to cooked quite high around 200 where as I always cooked on 180. Perhaps it's because you really cannot tell what temperature you are on."

With a total capacity of 99 litres, the Smeg DUSC36X double oven is ideal if you cook for a big family. At the top you've got the control panel and LED display. Through this you can access the programmable timer, which is really handy if you've got a busy lifestyle. You can set the oven to come on and off automatically at a time that's suitable to you, so you can have your dinner ready by the time you get home from work.
At the top is the 36 litre oven. It's conventional, so it's great for cooking roast dinners. Put meat at the bottom to keep it tender and succulent and pop the potatoes at the top to make them nice and crispy. It also acts as a variable grill, so you can use half if you're just making a bacon sandwich for yourself or all of it if you're grilling chicken for the family.
Below this you've got the 63 litre main oven. It has loads of handy functions to help you cook almost anything, including fan cooking. This reduces cooking time by up to 10% and makes sure all the shelves are the same temperature. Great if you're cooking a lot of the same thing like a couple of lasagnes for a dinner party. Then you've got the grill, which when combined with the fan which is ideal for cooking meat. The fan distributes the heat from the grill all around the cavity so you won't have to turn your bacon or sausages while you're cooking. It even has a defrost setting, which circulates cool air to thaw your food. It's much quicker and a lot more hygienic than leaving it on the kitchen counter.

I just got a baby hawk mei tei - it is my first attemp at wrapping and I need help. I tried him on my back and he wasn't up high enough it felt like, would I tie it higher than my waist? He loved being in the front hold, but it didn't seem like it would be comfortable for that long (12 months, 26lbs, 32" - so he is big). I just ordered a kinderpack and can't wait to try that, especially for back carry. But should I keep the mei tei - DS is my first, want to have more, are they more comfortable for smaller babies. It just seems like a lot of work if he is going to be going up and down, are there wraps you can get on once and pull LO in and out of? I also have arthristis in my hands, so can't pull super tight, but he felt secure in front, just not in back. Thanks!
Baby Hawk Mei Tei help

I tie right below my breasts in a back carry. High back carries are great with MTs, and baby loves to look over my shoulder. I used a MT today with 22mo, and I definitely am noticing a lack of comfort now that she's heavier. I had to stop using the BabyHawk over the summer because there wasn't enough padding and the body was too small for us to comfortably use it once she was about 16mo. I still use my CatBird Baby on occasion, and I just got a Kozy MT to try. I do think MTs are great for the first couple of years, but they don't support weight as well as a KP ;)

Thanks, I think I am going to return my BH, I would love more than one carrier, love my KP btw! My DS has been fussy this week, so I've been doing more front carries with it, but want to try the back carry soon, hopefully I can get a good high carry with the KP. any thoughts on wrap (I have a borrowed woven girasol that I like for a front carry, but he is too big to get him into a back carry by myself) vs a CB or Kozy MT as a second carrier? TIA!
My DD has similar stats, and she is just too tall for any front carries in any carrier, so I'm impressed you can still front carry your son! DD is outgrowing the Ergo, and we've just started to use our mei tai for back carries and we have a woven wrap on the way. There are a couple of different methods to getting him on your back with the MT and the woven, I learned by watching lots of youtube vids and then making it a game with my DD to practice getting her back there. With the woven, there is a method of getting on the back that basically starts as a hip carry and then you slide the baby on your back while they are in the woven, which might be easier if you have arthritis.
I think probably next year we will get a kinderpack or other toddler sized SSC. They are so expensive!
