The inventory promotes deep sleep and good health through a range of mattress types, from the strong, nonsagging innerspring design to the pillowy comfort of sheets of memory foam and latex.2525 Green Mount Commons DrBelleville, IL US
Apple Cleaners Dry CleaningRead MoreOver the course of their 50 years of business, Apple Cleaners Dry Cleaning has kept up with the demands of ever-emerging, ever more finicky fabrics. Today, it combines its updated equipment with two types of cleaning solution, granting the flexibility to tackle stains in a full range of fabrics, from wool to cotton to various blends. Eager to show off their quality handiwork, the staff can expedite cleaning orders for next-day and delivery services.1816 N BeltBelleville, IL US
NuKastle CleaningRead MoreBill Blair spent 20 years training franchise owners how to build their businesses. One day he asked, "Why can't I do it for myself?" He knew from experience that one niche market was in need of modernizing more than any other—green cleaning. "That was something that was really important to me," he says. "So I decided to be the premier residential cleaning company at the forefront of that eco-friendly movement." NuKastle Cleaning's approach employs Green Seal chemicals and color-coded microfiber cloths and mop heads, which help to avoid cross-contamination. Though the environmentally friendly products are an important part of Bill's mission, he explains why traditional chemicals are always on hand for those who request them: "A lot of green chemicals will sanitize but not disinfect, and some clients really like that chemically fresh smell. I can always do partially green, fully green—whatever fits the needs of the customer." Another important facet of NuKastle's strategy is the ability to tailor services to individual clients. "Companies will quote prices based on the website's stock info," Bill says. "It doesn't focus on the needs of customers." So he does things a little differently. "I go meet the homeowner first, spend 15 minutes coming up with a detailed work schedule fitted to their needs. It's about a relationship that I want to establish, a rapport." This desire to form personal bonds is one reason NuKastle partners with Cleaning For A Reason, a charitable organization offering free house cleaning to women battling cancer.2650 Piper Hills DriveBelleville, IL US

Advance Security's expert personnel man a toll-free support line to help customers by solving equipment problems or recommending products.26 Carlyle Plaza DrBelleville, IL US

Later on, she developed her skills even more by earning a degree in construction management. Today, she leads a team of skilled women and men to tackle painting, mowing, electrical work, and other tasks that improve life inside homes or tree houses commandeered from neighborhood children.432 Williamsburg DriveBelleville, IL US

33 year old man | Pasadena, CA, USA | Seeking women 23-36 within 60 miles of Corona, CA
Tall Southern gentleman looking for his sweet heart!
First of all, I am a very simple guy from down south spreading my wings in Cali. You're looking at my profile, wondering why it's so empty and so clear.. I believe that's the way we should learn more about one another, with a clear mind, clear path, in starting something new! The past is no longer an importance, well, to a degree. We can eventually learn more once we spark an interest towards one another.~ However, I will explain that I'm very loyal, honest, trust worthy, seductive, passionate, loving and down to earth. I have morals and have family values. I expect nothing less from my perfect match. We have to see what flaws can be tolerated by one another to make the perfect match. I also believe, a perfect match starts with mutual attraction. I'm not shallow, just honest! Reason why I'm here: Looking for true and passionate love. Finding the one that can make me happier then I already am in life. Wanting to meet someone to start a loving relationship and grow our friendship. I'm looking for the right woman who can show her interest towards me and for me to show her mine. There's nothing more important to me then having someone beside you to communicate, love, honor and respect.

New ingredient makes Physician's Pain Relief Cream unique in the topical analgesic market.
Decatur, AL (PRWEB) March 8, 2010 -- Physician's Pain Relief announced the launch of a new pain relief formula containing HEPES Ester, a patented, anti-inflammatory agent. Studies show HEPES Ester effectively relieved arthritis and myositis pain by reducing redness and swelling of inflamed muscle and joint tissue. This is good news for an estimated 46 million adults in the US diagnosed by their doctors with some form of arthritis, according to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). Physician's Pain Relief has three US patents dealing with HEPES Ester as an anti-inflammatory agent ( 6114337 s, 6306858 and 6448251) making the product unique among topical analgesics currently on the market.
James Hill, President of Physician's Pain Relief, founded the company in 2003 and established headquarters in Decatur, AL. "Physician's Pain Relief Cream is the product of six years of intensive research, development, testing and clinical trials," said Mr. Hill. "A team of physicians, pharmacists and biochemists who rank among the nation's leading medical experts were assembled to develop and test the formula. We included six anti-inflammatories in our product. One of them is our own patented ingredient."

The Colorado Avalanche have the same number of points as the San Jose Sharks, but they might be the more desperate team heading into a matchup at HP Pavilion. The Avalanche have fewer games left than the other contenders for the Western Conference's final playoff berth and could use a rare road win over the Sharks on Monday night. Colorado is currently tied with San Jose and Los Angeles for eighth place in the West but has played 77 games, two more than the Sharks and Kings. The Avalanche are also facing a three-game road trip that includes visits to Northwest Division champ Vancouver and fellow contender Calgary. Colorado (40-31-6) heads into that trip having lost consecutive games following a 7-1-1 stretch. It blew a two-goal lead during a 3-2 overtime defeat to the Canucks on Saturday. "We have to get over it, move on and get ready for this road trip," center Ryan O'Reilly said. "We know that other teams have a couple of games in hand on us. ... We can't control if we make th...

As you know I am not a huge pizza fan. But CCP does it right. Crust is crisp and holds up well. Toppings are always fresh and quantity meat toppings. Salad bar is always cold and stock well. This is a must if you are in the mood for pizza.
I cant say enough about this place. Nothing is bad. So order anything. Enjoy. Best pizza on the Central Coast .
We came here looking for casual place to have dinner. They have a few video games that don't work very well, but the food was great and the staff were very friendly.
We had 2 small pizzas, each was great tasting. Very friendly and accomodating staff. Very homespun feel, basic food and a great place where locals eat.
Central Coast Pizza has great-sized slices and yummy pizza. Not a lot of locals order from here, but I'm honestly not sure why. The pizza is perfect for Sunday football. I would recommend ordering rather than eating at the restaurant, though. It has a game room for kids, but the atmosphere is a bit older.
No matter which pizza you order you won't be disappointed. They also serve sandwiches. Beer is on tap and they have a good salad bar.
Sauce has too much oregano.
Cheese pizza is too cheesy.
Game room is nice for the kids.
Didn't try the salad bar.
Overall just ok.
They even deliver there great meals! Nice to have some good pasta come right to your door!
We like their Artisan Pizza with basil, garlic, mozzarella and fresh tomatoes! Yummy!
We went here recently with relatives who live in Atascadero. It's always a challenge to order for a group but the owner made great suggestions for us. One of the choices was a Hawaiian pizza. I am not a fan of the traditional ham and pineapple version and this was NOT that. It was a little spicy, a little sweet...

The 17th Gyalwang Karmapa could play an important role in choosing the Dalai Lama's spiritual successor. The Karmapa, a much-loved but controversial figure, is a 26-year-old monk and the third-ranking member of the hierarchy of Tibetan spiritual leaders. But following the suspicious discovery of a large amount of cash in his monastery, some police investigators in India speculate that he could be a spy for the Chinese, a "sleeper" planted in the nest of Tibetan exiles by forces on the other side of the Himalayas.
Some things are happening very openly in Dharamsala, the home of the exile government in India, where there are democratic elections, a reshuffling of power is taking place and objective police investigations are being conducted. In the People's Republic of China, on the other hand, true tragedies are unfolding, largely hidden from the eyes of critical observers.
In mid-March, a roughly 20-year-old monk called Phuntsok protested loudly against Chinese oppression near the Tibetan Kirti monastery in China's Sichuan Province holding a picture of the Dalai Lama in his hand. Then he poured gasoline on his body and set himself on fire. He died from the burn wounds, but according to Tibetan exiles, Chinese officials also beat him while he was dying.
An angry crowd that had quickly gathered at the site of the self-immolation blocked the path of security forces. Then a special unit that was brought in brutally forced its way through the wall of people and surrounded the monastery, which was known for being "defiant." Tibetan exiles quote eyewitnesses who reported that the monks were regularly targeted by officials, being subjected to torture and brainwashing. Two Tibetans allegedly died, 300 monks were taken away and the rest were ordered to exercise humiliating "self-criticism" and disparage the Dalai Lama. Kirti was literally starved to death.
Another monk, 29-year-old Tsewang Norbu, set himself on fire in Dawu in Sichuan Province last week, shouting "freedom for Tibet" as he was dying.
"Our hands are tied," says Professor Samdhong Rinpoche in a tone of despair, sitting in his modest office in Dharamsala. Rinpoche, 71, is the previous prime minister of the Tibetan government-in-exile.
The cleric's only explanation for the particularly brutal approach that China's rulers are taking at the moment is the nervousness that has taken hold in Beijing in light of the revolutions in North Africa. "They fear a 'Jasmine Revolution' in China, which is why they are lashing out at minorities, civil rights activists and religious people," he says.
He is already looking forward to his future job at a university. "You know, I think I'm quite a decent teacher," says Rinpoche, keeping a straight face. "But I fear I was always something of a failure as a politician."
Nothing has been achieved in his government's relationship with the People's Republic, says Rinpoche. "We have made more and more compromises, while Beijing has remained inflexible and has rudely insulted our leadership." And yet, he is quick to add, his words should not be misinterpreted as criticism of the Dalai Lama. "There is no alternative to the peaceful middle way of His Holiness."

Carla thought she was being health-savvy when she chose the salad bar over her usual order of a bacon cheeseburger and fries. Little did she know, her seemingly innocent salad would end up costing her far more in fat and calories than the burger meal.
Even at a salad bar, there are plenty of dietary land mines among the healthier choices. Prepared salads, oily croutons and ladles of dressing can easily add up to 1,000 calories or more, not to mention countless grams of fat (and sodium).
If you want to reap the most benefits on your next trip to the salad bar, follow the tips below. Here you'll find ways to create a delicious, nutritious salad while minding your waistline at the same time.
- Build your base with veggies. Start by filling your plate with salad greens and plenty of raw veggies. Your salad should be 80 percent to 90 percent raw vegetables.
- An easy way to make sure you have a good load of nutrients is to pick vegetables with different colors. You won't be doing yourself a favor if your salad consists of iceberg lettuce and a couple of cucumbers.
- Get your greens with spinach, broccoli, cucumbers, celery and green peppers. Add some reds with tomatoes, beets and peppers. Toss in the yellows with summer squash or bell peppers. Mix in orange carrots, purple shredded cabbage and white or gray mushrooms.
- If they are available, add roasted red peppers, which are fat-free and loaded with flavor.
- Avoid prepared salads, such as tuna, chicken, potato and macaroni salad.
- These items are often loaded with full-fat mayonnaises and oils.
- Just a half cup serving can average 10 grams of fat and almost 200 calories.
- Be creative with marinated veggies. Items such as three bean salad, artichoke hearts or marinated cucumbers and tomatoes are okay in small amounts. A small spoonful of any one of these (or a combo) can act as all or part of your salad dressing. This will add a wonderful flavor to the salad.
- Enjoy lean proteins. If the salad is your main meal, lean proteins are a must.
- Plain cut-up turkey or chicken breast, cubed tofu, cottage cheese, undressed tuna fish or hardboiled eggs are all good choices.
- Plain chickpeas and beans also deliver on protein, and are high in fiber to boot (5 to 7 grams per half cup).
- Go easy on the toppings. Go light on calorie-dense foods or avoid them altogether.
- Items such as cheeses, croutons and bacon should be limited or avoided.
- Feel free to sprinkle tiny portions of nuts, seeds or olives, which will offer a dose of healthy fat and add some fun crunch and flavor.
- Ditch the dressing. A good salad does not need to be drowned in dressing.
- Just two tablespoons of a full-fat dressing can cost you 150 calories and 15 grams of fat. A typical ladle at a salad bar holds 4 tablespoons.
- Fat-free dressings will be lower in fat and calories, but often full of sugar and other additives.
- Instead, use small amounts of marinated veggies or beans, which will help dress your salad without going overboard.
- Also, most salad bars have the option of plain olive oil and vinegar. Try just drizzling on a little olive oil - and be generous with the vinegar.
- Top your salad with just a dash of Parmesan cheese for extra kick and flavor.
- Mind the bread. Finally, many salad bars offer breads, rolls and/or crackers for the taking. Don't fall prey to endless servings, and keep to one portion, if any.

I can't sleep anymore, so the next clay picture was the first thing to cross my mind.
I wonder who came up with the idea of counting sheep when you're sleepy, and if they were outside
where there really were sheep to count.
Counting anything works, though, because counting (and anything to do with math) is boring.
Well, sometimes it works. Sometime I try to count backward from 100, but I never make it to zero. Not because
I fell asleep, but because I got bored and started thinking about a giant clock counting down the last days/years
of the universe somewhere, along with other comforting thoughts.

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals
Rating: 5.0
By Sarah Shearman, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Friday, 02 December 2011 11:33AM
In addition to receiving complaints directly, the OFT has been passed complaints by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA).
The ASA referred the company to the OFT after finding it in breach of the advertising code nearly 50 times this year.
The advertising watchdog said it had "serious concerns" about Groupon's ability to adhere to the code and it was "in the public interest" for the OFT to address any underlying issues concerning its trading practices.
Groupon offers daily deals ranging from beauty treatments to restaurant discounts, which only go ahead if enough people commit to buy them. It advertises these deals on its site and via email. The company has been valued at nearly $13bn (£8.3bn) after it recently floated.
Complaints against Groupon were first received by the ASA in April 2010 and its first formal adjudication was in December last year.
This year, the ASA has formally investigated and upheld complaints against Groupon's ads on 11 occasions. It has also resolved 37 cases informally.
At the start of the year, the ASA rapped Groupon over two ads for restaurant discounts and an ad for a safari experience, on the basis they misled consumers.
The most recent was last week, when the ASA banned a promotion ad for cosmetic surgery over complaints it made consumers rush into a decision.
Rival services LivingSocial and kgb have also been found in breach of the Advertising Code this year.
A Groupon spokeswoman said: "Groupon constantly strives for business practices that are in the best interest of consumers.
"We are constantly evolving business process to ensure customers receive the best possible experience at the highest standards. We are cooperating fully with the OFT to ensure that the rights of consumers are protected."

Gun Parts
|Seller's Description
How often do you see one of these? I've had this Kodiak for many years. It used to fire through a full tube of 11 .22 magnum shells with no problem. Several years ago it started to jam after 3-4 rounds. I can't find a local gunsmith who knows much about it, so I'm going to sell it. It's in descent condition overall, but has some blemishes. There are 1/2 dozen little indents in the wood,& several scratches on the receiver. The thing that bothered me the most was while in my safe, a silica moisture collecting bag got "full" and leaked some liquid on the barrel. It took the bluing off in that spot (1 1/2" long)and freckled it. There's a picture of it, and a ding on the forend. If not for that, it would rate in fine shape. The front sight has a hood. The rear sight is there, but missing the ramp for it.

In the News: Lady Vols aiming for another national basketball title
With her entire team back from last season, Tennessee coach Pat Summitt feels she has a good shot at reaching another NCAA championship. To most schools, a two-year drought wouldn't seem long, but to the Lady Vols, who have won eight national championships, it's been an eternity.
"We've had a hard time getting there. Now I think (the Lady Vols) really feel like it's our turn," Summitt said. "If we don't get to Indianapolis, then we're not going to be happy at all. Do we have the size? Yes. Do we have the experience? Yes."
Summitt says she may finally be done dealing with her team's growing pains. Her 2008-09 team was her youngest ever and made Tennessee's earliest exit from the NCAA tournament with a first-round loss. For the 2010-11 seasons, she returns every player from a squad that lost in the NCAA regional semifinals and has her deepest roster since her 2008 national championship team.
"We have to play very well together, and we have to make defense and rebounding a top priority," Summitt said. "If we don't buy into that on any given night, then I think we can go home."
Singler tops All-America team
Duke's Kyle Singler is the leading vote-getter on The Associated Press preseason All-America team, while North Carolina's Harrison Barnes is the first freshman selected since voting began 24 years ago.
Jacob Pullen of Kansas State, Jimmer Fredette of BYU and JaJuan Johnson of Purdue are the other members of the team announced Monday.
Singler, who led the Blue Devils to last season's national championship, received 62 votes from the 65-member national panel that selects the weekly Top 25. Pullen got 53 votes; Fredette received 49, Johnson 46 and Barnes 17.
The 6-8 Barnes, the only non-senior on the team, is considered the top national recruit by most scouting services. He averaged 19.7 points and 8.8 rebounds at Ames (Iowa) High School.
Payment made on FedExForum
The Memphis and Shelby County Sports Authority made its scheduled bond payment of $8.9 million on the FedExForum senior bonds Monday, said Lisa Daniel, managing director of Public Financial Management, the advisor of the MSCSA.
As of Sept. 30, the debt reserve funds for the senior bonds was $22.7 million. The next bond payment is scheduled for May 1, 2011.
Trudi Lacey is the new general manager and head coach of the Washington Mystics, which is coming off the franchise's most successful season. Lacey joined the Mystics in 2009 as an assistant coach, then was promoted to director of basketball operations in 2010. She replaces Angela Taylor as GM, and Julie Plank as coach.
Sarah Mathews is in second place after an opening-round par-72 that helped the University of Memphis women's golf team take a nine-stroke lead after one round at the UAB Fall Beach Blast. Teammates Marissa Steen and Kathleen Glavin are tied for fourth after rounds of 73, and Julia Hodgson is tied for seventh with a 74. Play concludes today at the 5,974-yard Peninsula Golf and Racquet Club. ... Notre Dame football coach Brian Kelly and several players were among the mourners at the funeral of a student killed when a tower from which he was filming practice toppled over. A bell tolled as an altar boy holding a large wooden crucifix led Declan Sullivan's casket out of the St. Mary's Catholic Church following the service in suburban Chicago. The 20-year-old's mother and father followed closely behind. Sullivan died last week after a scissor lift that he was standing on fell when wind gusts reportedly reached around 50 mph.
Rutgers coach Greg Schiano on Monday named Chas Dodd as his team's starting quarterback for Wednesday's game against South Florida. Schiano, who continues to label his quarterback position a week-to-week decision, said Tom Savage will handle backup duties for the Big East contest in Tampa. ... Iowa says the NCAA won't penalize the Hawkeyes for allowing two basketball recruits, senior Josh Oglesby and junior Marcus Paige, to meet celebrity fans Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore. The school said Monday that the NCAA ruled the actions by Iowa staffers were "secondary" in nature and both unintentional and accidental. Iowa also said the recruits have been fully cleared. ... The University of North Dakota and Southern Utah are joining the Big Sky Conference, effective in July 2012. The league also says it's "on the verge" of announcing the addition of the University of South Dakota. That will give the league 12 core members, with 14 football members. Cal Poly and UC Davis are joining as football-only schools.
Scott Hartnell scored two goals and Claude Giroux added one to lead the host Philadelphia Flyers to a 3-2 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes. ... Brandon Dubinsky's second goal of the game, a power-play tally in the first minute of the third period, snapped a tie and helped the New York Rangers to a 3-2 victory over the visiting Chicago Blackhawks.
Vancouver forward Alex Burrows will return to the Canucks' lineup tonight against Edmonton after missing the first month of the season following offseason shoulder surgery. ... Buffalo Sabres forward Jason Pominville has been cleared to play after missing nine games with a concussion. ... Flyers forward Danny Briere has been suspended three games by the NHL for his crosscheck of the Islanders' Frans Nielsen on Saturday.

Press Freedom Day at UCO!

New York Post coverage of Boston bombings
The New York Post has been criticized this week for showing a photo of two men they implied were suspects. The Post's response:
"Post editor Col Allan defended the newspaper's decision to run its cover and the story, telling The Huffington Post's Michael Calderone: 'We stand by our story. The image was emailed to law enforcement agencies yesterday afternoon "seeking information about these men, as our story reported. We did not identify them as suspects.' "
One of the men pictured said he has been afraid to go outside.
What do you think? Was the Post justified?

Salmon Slam 2015
July 11th - 19th
This is a 5-fish only sub tournament that runs the full 9 days of Salmon-A-Rama.
The total weight of your five selected fish will determine the winner with no upgrading to fish; so being selective and strategic will be key to success.
The beauty of this tournament is that it's based on 1 anglers' bag limit but is tied to the boat vs. the angler. Meaning you can have multiple anglers over the nine day event and still weigh in the fish under that ticket, but you better choose wisely!
Tickets cost just $50.00 and weigh-in will be allowed at any of the participating ports (Closing Sunday will be limited to port of Racine only).
View the Official Rules for details about registration and general contest information.
Don't wait too long, online registration closes Friday July 17th at 11pm
(Online tickets include an additional $3.00 Internet convenience fee.)
Head over to the online registration page and register now to secure your spot!

The NL West-leading Padres are on the move. They extended manager Bud Black's contract through 2013 on Monday -- with club options for 2014 and 2015 -- and general manager Jed Hoyer is talking about adding both a hitter and a pitcher by the July 31 non-waivers trade deadline.
"We'll try to accomplish both and see if we can," Hoyer said of the dual hitter-pitcher option for a club that opened the 2010 season with the second-lowest payroll in the majors after Pittsburgh.
Hoyer told CBSSports.com that he's eying a starting pitcher because the club wants to protect three young starters who have pitched limited major-league innings -- Mat Latos, Clayton Richard and Wade LeBlanc -- from overextending themselves.
He added that he would like to add a hitter to help "lengthen" a lineup that currently ranks 12th in runs scored in the National League, and 14th in slugging percentage.
One such hitter whom Hoyer did not name is Milwaukee's Corey Hart, who just so happened to share a National League clubhouse with Padres manager Bud Black at last week's All-Star Game.
Asked the other day if he did any reconnaissance work, Black smiled.
"He had a little bit of time, and I was in the clubhouse," Black said of a between-rounds moment while Hart was jacking baseball's out of Angel Stadium during last Monday's Home Run Derby. "I said, 'Nice round.' And he goes, 'Thanks.' And that was that."
Well, almost.
"I did mention, 'Hey, a lot of those balls would have gone out of Petco,'" Black said, smiling. "I did say that to gauge his response."
Hart's response?
"He kept looking at the TV and said, 'Yeah, they would have,'" Black said, still grinning. "I gauged his reaction to see if he would say, 'Yeah, I know man, let's go.'
"I didn't get that. I was making sure that he knows we're watching."

MONSEY — The fire department horn calling volunteers to duty sounded for the first time Thursday night since the district commissioners turned off the warning system in April.
Residents near the Grove Street firehouse were displeased by the sound returning, while Monsey volunteer firefighters were happy to hear their traditional call to duty again.
The Board of Commissioners voted 3-2 in favor of the horn signal Thursday night.
The board also voted Thursday to establish a committee of firefighters, commissioners and residents to discuss upgrading the horn, lowering the volume and/or shortening the blasts.
The horn will not sound from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., as was the case for 20 years before the commissioners bowed to local pressure to turn it off.
"We're pleased with the outcome," said Adam Peltz, president of the fire company. "This is a moral victory for us."
Voting to restore the horn were Commissioner Jonathan Kaufman, the board's only firefighter, Shmuel Kogos and Samuel Gross.
Board President Benjamin Breskin and Commissioner Ely Kramer again voted against the horn Thursday night.
In April, the board voted 3-1 for the three-month shutdown and upheld that decision in a 2-2 vote in May.
Breskin has declined to answer questions on district finances or issues from the public during public meetings, such as why he pressed the board's majority to hire a second lawyer.
Breskin has not returned telephone calls for comment.
After the Thursday meeting, the horn sounded at 10:48 p.m., Fire Chief Adam Gordon said. The firefighters went to the station and went on a call.
Gordon thought the board would allow the test period to expire and the horn to be turned on. The board decided to vote, creating more tension.
"My contention is to shut down the horn was a bad idea," Gordon said. "There are other ways to consider the needs of the neighbors. We are willing to work with them. Shutting down the horn is not an option."
The two attorneys who advise the five commissioners told them that the district had adopted national standards that mandate two ways of notifying firefighters of an emergency. The horn system was one method, as well as beepers.
The lack of two methods could lead to hundreds of dollars in higher insurance payments for homeowners, who pay taxes to the fire district, including a 19 percent raise this year.
The debate pitted longtime residents and firefighters against many recent residents who came to the community knowing the horn was used.
Led by Breskin, the board turned off the siren without much input from the firefighters after residents gave them a petition and spoke at a meeting.
Some residents who live near the horn argued that the noise disrupted their lives and that using a horn was obsolete. They said pagers and texting were enough to get firefighters rushing to an emergency.
Firefighters and horn supporters countered the backup siren is the most reliable means of notifying the firefighters, whereas pagers that require batteries are not always reliable and firefighters don't always carry them at home.
Officials said the committee would start meeting on ways to adjust the horn. One suggestion was to upgrade the horn to sound during potential hurricanes and other potential emergencies.

Will you buy a bottle of booze for Rs 2 lakh?
December 11, 2011
Nupur Amarnath , ET Bureau
Let's do the math. A standard bottle of whisky is 750 ml. A large peg is 60 ml. One bottle will give you 12 pegs. At Rs 1.5 lakh (an average price) for a bottle, a peg is for Rs 12,000. For most of us, at this price, even the smoothest scotch might feel like arrack. But it's a high that's not for all. It's the world of premium liquor, and everyone's not invited. In September 2011, a bottle of Dalmore 62 single malt scotch whisky was bought for £125,000, the highest...

NEW DELHI: When it comes to loyalty, Indian drinkers are dram good. Whisky marketers can raise a toast to the Indian tippler's priority preference. It seems scotch drinkers would much rather have Indian-made foreign liquor (IMFL) whisky, and at a pinch beer, instead of rum, vodka and gin as a substitute when malt is unavailable. According to a study conducted by leading marketing research organisation NFONBL for Allied Domecq in big metros like Mumbai, Delhi and Kolkata, scotch...

|John Gross
|Birth name
|John Curtis Gross
|May 30, 1944
Burbank, United States
|Tenor Sax
|Years active
|1958 - Present
John Gross (né John Curtis Gross; born in 30 May 1944 Burbank, California) is an American saxophone, flute and clarinet player.
Gross is known as a musician's musician, a mainstay,[1] and in 1994, Saxophone Journal called him one of the most meaningful players on the American Jazz scene.[2] Gross is a jazz original, an improviser, a versatile accompanist and creator of a notational method called Multiphonics for the Saxophone.
Early career[edit]
Raised in a musical family, he launched his professional career at age eight in Los Angeles, playing the clarinet for the L.A. County Parks and Recreation Youth Orchestra. Gross studied clarinet with Phil Sobel and Vito Susca, saxophone with Ronnie Lang and John Graas. As a child and youth Gross played in Burbank Youth Symphony, All-Southern California Junior High School Orchestra, American Youth Symphony, L.A. All-City High School Band, I.O.F. Robin Hood Youth Band, and Sepulveda Youth Band.
At fourteen Gross was playing at the Gas House in Venice Beach, the epicenter of L.A. Beat culture (which led to a police visit, and the threat of juvenile detention for John and his date). John earned his jazz improv chops in L.A.'s jazz scene playing at venues such as the Hillcrest Club on Washington Boulevard[3] with jazz greats such as Ornette Coleman, Don Cherry, Gary Peacock, and Horace Tapscott, who were participants of the scene at the time, and the shapers of L.A. Jazz.
At age sixteen Gross dropped out of the University of California, Northridge and hit the road with Harry James. The band was playing on a bill with the famous crooner Billy Eckstine ("My Foolish Heart").
Gross continued to work in top level bands in the early 60s, touring with Lionel Hampton, Johnny Mathis, Stan Kenton, and Woody Herman.
In the mid 60's Gross was playing at the Lighthouse Cafe in Hermosa Beach with regulars Warne Marsh, Lou Ciotti, Frank Strazzeri, Putter Smith, Dave Parlato, Abe and Sam Most, Jimmy Zito, Hart Smith, Sal Nistico, Frank De La Rossa and Dave Koonse.[4]
Later career[edit]
Gross spent five years (1967–1972) as house band member at Shelly Manne's Hollywood club, "Shelly's Manne-Hole," playing opposite such jazz greats as Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins, Bill Evans, Thelonious Monk, Art Blakey, Abby Lincoln, Muddy Waters, Gary Barone, Mike Wofford, and Dave Parlato.[5] He toured Europe with Manne in 1970 playing on "Alive in London" recorded during a fondly remembered residency at Ronnie Scott's club in London.[6]
Gross spent four years (1979–1983) touring worldwide with Toshiko Akiyoshi's big band, including a gig at Carnegie Hall. The Toshiko Akiyoshi – Lew Tabackin Big Band was known for its wild "tenor battles" between Gross and Toshiko's husband Lew Tabackin.
Among the countless other musicians Gross has played, toured and/or recorded with are Earl Grant, Oliver Nelson, Don Ellis, Gerald Wilson, Bill Holman, Alan Jones Sextet, Piotr Wojtasik, and Gordon Lee.
He has also performed with Rosemary Clooney, Nancy King, Diana Krall, Freddie Hubbard, Larry Young, Donald Bailey, Drew Gress, Dave Holland, Cubby O'Brien, Russ Morgan, Kay Kyser, Lennon Sisters, Roger Williams, Ernie Andrews, Gladys Knight, Stevie Wonder, Brad Turner, Carole King, Belinda Underwood, Glen Moore, Gary Versace, Israel Annoh, Pat Coleman, Alain Jean-Marie, The Hitchens Consort, Larry Koonse,The Belmondo Brothers, and Francois Theberge.
Gross received a preliminary Grammy nomination (best jazz album and best jazz soloist) for his 1990 trio album Three Play with bassist Putter Smith and guitarist Larry Koonse. He moved to Portland, Oregon in 1991.
Gross currently resides in Portland, teaching, performing and touring with various bands.

He has visited both schools twice in the last couple of weeks and may make a few more trips before he announces. One of the top overall players in the nation, Kris Frost, was in Auburn this weekend and was absolutely blown away. Most schools are recruiting him at linebacker but Auburn will give him the option to play receiver. He says his top schools, in no order, are Auburn, Michigan, North Carolina and Cal.

Why Bulls are winning minus Rose
Despite Chicago's success, team isn't a title contender without star guard
When the Chicago Bulls travel to Oklahoma City to face the Thunder on Sunday, they'll once again be without the services of all-world point guard and reigning NBA Most Valuable Player Derrick Rose. Rose, who ranks sixth in John Hollinger's player efficiency rating among players with 1,200 or more minutes, would be vying for another MVP this year, but injuries have curtailed his season. Sunday's game will be the 20th Rose has missed this season, and the 10th in a row, thanks to a strained groin sustained against the New York Knicks on March 12.
Without Rose, you might expect the Bulls to be struggling. After all, one of the biggest selling points for Rose's MVP candidacy a year ago was his irreplaceability; while fellow starters Carlos Boozer and Joakim Noah missed extended chunks of the 2010-11 season with injuries, Rose sat out only a single game, carrying Chicago to the Eastern Conference's top record despite his teammates' absences. At the very least, it would appear that Rose's sheer ability to initiate offense (he's used roughly 32 percent of the Bulls' possessions while in the game over the past two seasons) would be difficult to replicate, especially given that his backups at the point are C.J. Watson and John Lucas III, who respectively ranked 258th and 444th in ESPN's preseason player rankings.
Yet for all the speculation about Rose's indispensability, the Bulls have actually been fine without him.

The Xavier Saints began their football season today, kicking things off with the team picture. The Saints are coming off another great season, only losing to the 4A state champs from Dowling High School last year.
It's a new year, however, and the Saints have dropped down from 4A to 3A for the 2014 season.
I don't see it as dropping down a class, I see it as playing at the classification we're in, said Coach Duane Schulte. We were playing up a class for the past 16 years.
