A Bayonne man working for the Hudson County Department of Family Services pleaded guilty Tuesday to using his position as a food stamp, Medicaid, and cash assistance caseworker to extort money from clients, U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman announced.
According to the criminal complaint, Walter Payton, a nine-year employee of the Division of Welfare and Workforce Development, threatened to sever the benefits of a Jersey City recipient if the victim, who is married with two children, did not pay him $200. In August 2010, the victim and his family began receiving benefits of approximately $280 per month in cash and $330 per month in food stamps. The following month, Payton called the victim into his office and wrote on a piece of paper that he wanted $200. When the recipient told Payton he could not afford to pay that, Payton told him that no one else had any problems paying.
A week later, Payton again demanded $200 from the victim and said the victim's benefits would be terminated if he did not comply. The man later telephoned Payton asking for more time to gather the money and Payton agreed. Several days later, Payton called the victim telling him to meet Payton at a location near the social services building in Jersey City. After Payton collected the money, he informed the victim that no additional payments were needed and that the victim's benefits would not be terminated.Fishman said Payton, 54, admitted to demanding money from four other Hudson County welfare recipients during his employment with the County agency. The attempted extortion charge to which Payton pleaded guilty to before Judge Esther Salas in Newark federal court carries a maximum prison sentence of 20 years and a $250,000 fine, according to FBI.gov.
Zahid N. Quraishi of the U.S. Attorney's Office Special Prosecutions Division in Newark represented the government. David Holman, Assistant Federal Public Defender, served as defense counsel for Payton, whose sentencing is scheduled for December 19, 2011.

As Jon Gruden drama ends, focus shifts to other Tennessee candidates
Agent talked to UT the first time on Friday
Tennessee fans expecting the Vols to lure former NFL coach Jon Gruden from his lucrative television gig had their hopes stamped out Friday.
Gruden's longtime agent called the idea of his client taking a job at Tennessee "fantasy." A source close to Tennessee's search said the Vols had moved on to other candidates.
The details of the flirtation between Gruden and Tennessee, and the extent of interest on either side, may never be fully known. One thing is clear after a zany Friday: The Super Bowl-winning coach who had captivated Tennessee fans for months won't be coming to Knoxville.
"I haven't said anything (about the ongoing rumors) because there's been nothing to say," said Bob LaMonte, the Reno, Nev.-based representative for Gruden. "This, to me, is just a fantasy world."
LaMonte said he spoke to Tennessee athletic director Dave Hart for the first time Friday morning.
"He just said there had been a lot of rumors and he just wanted to clear the air," LaMonte said. "I said, 'Thank you for the call. I appreciate it.' He said thank you and that was it."
According to LaMonte, Gruden has no plans to leave ESPN, where he is in his fourth season as a commentator for Monday Night Football.
"Jon has made it clear he's committed to ESPN," LaMonte said.
The chances of Gruden coming to Tennessee had dwindled until a report by the Chattanooga Times Free Press late Thursday revived the hopes of some fans that a deal could still be struck. Citing two unnamed sources, the newspaper said Gruden had been offered a generous contract and the decision was in his hands.
A source who spoke to the News Sentinel on the condition he not be identified strongly disputed the Chattanooga report. The source said Tennessee reached out to Gruden late last week, but after discussing matters with his family, Gruden declined to pursue the job. The source said no financial figures were discussed and no contract was offered.
LaMonte also said there had been no offers or discussions of money, and no discussions at all that involved him.
"I don't know Dave Hart," LaMonte said. "I'd never met him or talked to him. (Today) was the only time I talked to anyone from Tennessee."
LaMonte said Hart's phone call on Friday was apparently a formality.
"He said, 'I just wanted to do due diligence,'" LaMonte said. "I said, 'Thank you, but Jon has made it clear he's committed to ESPN.' He thanked me and said goodbye."
As Tennessee enters its 13th day of the coaching search, other candidates could start to come into focus.
Louisville coach Charlie Strong, whose team beat Rutgers on Thursday to improve to 10-2 and earn a BCS bowl berth, is being pursued by several schools.
GoVols247, a News Sentinel partner, reported that Strong was expected to interview with Hart on Friday.
"We're not going to comment on the search process of other schools," a Louisville spokesperson told the News Sentinel.
Earlier this week, AL.com reported that Strong had interviewed with Auburn before the Cardinals' final regular-season game, which Strong vehemently denied.
"It was a distraction for our program. It was a distraction for our fans. It was testing me," Strong said of the report. "I am trying to get a football team ready to go play, and I am chasing another job so I am not taking care of the job I have? Then I don't have the respect of the players. When they respect me and they do everything I ask them to do, and then all of a sudden I am going to turn my back on them and go interview for a job two days before a big game? Come on, seriously?"
When asked if he might be interested in pursuing other jobs, Strong was more evasive.
"Let's concentrate on this, let's worry about the game," he said. "Let's not worry about the job right now."

Watch Me Ask the President…
So, I talked to the President today via Google+Hangout. No biggie. Whatevs. Happens ever day. Here's a short clip of one of my questions. I'll post the full video when it's up.
So, I talked to the President today via Google+Hangout. No biggie. Whatevs. Happens ever day. Here's a short clip of one of my questions. I'll post the full video when it's up.
It's LOL Tuesday…the day of the week I've decided everyone needs to laugh out loud. Mondays aren't for laughing, they're for cursing the sun and overdosing on coffee. Wednesday is already officially Hump Day and Thursday has the pleasurable distinction of being the day before Friday so it's almost like Friday but not quite. Friday, Saturday and Sunday – well, they're the weekend! Their importance in our culture will never be superseded. But Tuesday's are just…there. Tuesday needs a "thing". So it's LOL Tuesday, mmmkay?
I've got a good one for you today. Comedianne/actress Sunny Lohmann (Houseofsunny.tv) offers us her take on the latest celebrity PSA regarding bad, bad guns. America loves celebrity PSA's because they make us feel like we actually care about problems. They don't actually have to do anything, all they have to do is look concerned, speak softly and America will KNOW that THEY – the most important, influential people in the country- CARE. And they are willing to….talk…about…how much they care. See how much they care???? They even shot it in black and white, just so you'll know they are SERIOUS!
Please to enjoy Sunny's take on the celebrity PSA. LOL!
This is Eric Boling's "One More Thing" on today's The Five. Priceless!
This really isn't for conservatives. It's dedicated to all those people who don't understand why conservatives are always talking about taxes. It's a an explanation of sorts.

This man responds to Jamie Foxx hailing Barack Obama as "God and Savior" at the Soul Train Awards on Sunday.
From the YouTube Description:
The Fear of God is no longer with said Jamie Foxx. Anytime you can make a joke about this, you have crossed the line.
Liberal democrats will laugh this off and use their insurance card that he was just being funny or he didn't mean anything by it…..my response is yes he did……
I guess Jamie's God performs his miracles in reverse.
I just found out that this video "has been has been classified as potentially abusive". To quote my dear friend Gianna Jessen:
"it's interesting how so many people that lean to the left in the world seem to champion the voice of the disabled, unless those disabled people, happen to be conservative."
Gianna is the lady who inspired the movie October Baby.
Gianna is requesting that this video be shared with as many people as possible. Please do what you can to get Andrea Bocelli's message out.
From the YouTube Description:
The song at the end says:
I want to live like this with the sun on my face, and I sing happily, gracefully. I want to live like this, with the air of the mountains, because this enchantment doesn't cost anything.
President Obama will address the United Nations this week and reports are that he will once again address the YouTube video that is supposedly fueling the anti-American riots across the Middle East. Whatever he says, I know I will be underwhelmed and disappointed. I decided to provide my own address to the United Nations. This video is what I would say if I had the opportunity to address the United Nations as a representative of the American people. I'm sorry for the poor audio. It's just me and the webcam so quality is limited but as my friend Lee Doren says, don't sweat it and don't be afraid. Just turn on the camera and talk. A transcript is also posted beneath the video.
Despots, traitors, authoritarians, totalitarians, thieves, war criminals, genocidal maniacs, dictators and the precious few rest of you who actually carry the mantel of freedom, welcome to the United States and New York City, where you'll remember over 3000 of our innocent citizens between here and Washington DC were murdered 11 years ago as many of you danced in your elaborate golden palaces, many of which are lined with the tears and blood of your own people. We are so privileged to have you here. My fellow citizens and I find no small measure of entertainment in watching you eat and drink the bounty of our land and enjoy the privileges of comfortable luxury appointments, all of which are provided to you by the very freedom you pledge to murder wherever and wherever possible.
By now it has come to our attention in no small manner that many of you and your people have been gravely upset by a YouTube video that purportedly disparages Islam. So upset, that your proxies who claim to represent Islam have murdered our ambassador and overrun our sovereign embassies in defiance of hundreds of years of international tradition and diplomacy. Apparently the 98 people with internet access in your third world dictatorships were so outraged by this YouTube, I repeat, YouTube video they saw fit to rape ambassador Chris Stevens before killing and photographing his body in the streets of Libya. Now I know that to many of you, this is not a shocking allegation as you have very fond feelings for the act of rape. But here in America we consider that the ugliest of violations toward any human being. It's a shame that YouTube video, I repeat, YouTube video was ever produced at all. Forget the content, the quality is most offensive to those of us who actually value freedom. Most Americans could have probably done a better job with some bedsheets, Halloween hair coloring and tanning lotion, and done so without insulting what so many of our own citizens believe to be a holy book and prophet. However, that is the unfortunate price of freedom. The freedom to make good choices is also the same freedom to make poor choices. How else do you explain Glee and Matt Damon? Two things we do sincerely apologize for. We also apologize for not telling you sooner that your determination to condemn your citizens to a 12th century existence in a 21st century world is no longer our problem or our concern. If this never-ending war in Afghanistan has taught us anything it's that too many of you have placed little or no value on the lives of your own citizens, your own women, your own children. You have traded the message and basis of freedom for greed, corruption, selfishness, cruelty and evil at the expense of those you pledged to care for when you took, or stole leadership. We apologize to the citizens of Iran and Egypt who truly do want freedom and progress, and whom we abandoned under our own President when they needed our support the most. That is a genuine source of grief and shame for many Americans who long to see you free and prosperous as well. We are so sorry for that. We also apologize for emboldening some your state sponsored terrorist organizations by perpetuating the lie that these attacks on our sovereign embassies over a YouTube, I repeat, a YouTube video and not calling this what it really was from the beginning: an attack on American interests and values to commemorate the anniversary of September 11 in the United States. We apologize for our President, who has clearly abandoned the message of freedom and achievement that has made our country the greatest country on the face of the planet in all history forever and ever in favor of a message of appeasement; appeasement to you dictators who give not a moment's thought to the suffering of your own people while you live lives of ease and luxury upon the dollars and earnings that you have outright stolen at the end of a gun.
What we don't apologize for and will never apologize for is our own citizens exercising their own God-given right to free speech (no matter how ugly or poorly produced) on our own soil, using our own technology, to reach our own people. American values have not and will not ever be dictated by a small group of fascist demons with daddy issues who hate the idea of freedom so much that they have pledged, sworn to eradicate the only free, successful society among them, that being Israel. Americans will not apologize to anyone outside of our borders for what we do inside our borders. It's our business. If we're ever in the mood for stonings, beheading homosexuals, or wiping our butts with our hands we'll come visit you and subject ourselves to your national dominion. However, until then we'll continue to do as we please with our own rights in our own country provided to us by our own Constitution and our God. There aren't many of us who are truly excited about the content of this YouTube video, I repeat, YouTube video; but we all understand that freedom of speech is not truly free unless you have the freedom to say things that might offend others. What true freedom also produces, is a general common sense among the masses that offensive speech does not and should not produce massive violent attacks.
We are Americans, and our right to free speech is one of the most valued rights we have; indeed most of our other rights flow from that one concept; the idea that every human should be able to speak their mind without fear of retribution or physical harm. It is no coincidence that we are the freest, most powerful country on earth. That too is directly tied to our freedom of speech. But I think you know that, and that is why you work so hard to censor us within our own borders from within your own borders. You understand that the only way to truly break the American spirit that has been responsible for so much prosperity and yes, so much peace is to destroy our freedom of expression. But I've come to tell you today that will not happen. We will not bow or capitulate to your warped ideas of morality. Ideas that advocate killing over people over a YouTube video, I repeat, a YouTube video, but have no issues with treating women as property, cattle, or less. Sorry, we're just not going to do that. so while we agree that this YouTube video, I repeat, YouTube video really sucks, we also understand that it has the right to exist and suck. It's not always pretty, but that is price of freedom and whenever I sit down to enjoy my daily meals, running showers and household technology I do believe it is an appropriate price to pay for plethora of blessings we have.
In summary, we're Americans and we love freedom and we always will so suck it.
Thank you and enjoy your taxpayer funded stay.

The 'man on the street' interviews of Obama supporters that will make you cringe. Howard Stern says it's pretty funny… and if it weren't so serious, it would be funny. It's actually pretty sad. We are in a very bad place in this country. People have no clue!
YouTube Description:
Howard Stern contributors Sal and Richard travel to Harlem to interview Obama supporters and ask them why they are voting for Obama. They did this back in 2008, now let's see what happens when they do it again in 2012!
I've been getting a lot of questions about the controversy surrounding my ejection from MSNBC's outdoor pavilion during the DNC. I decided to lay out my version of events on YouTube.

"I know it's a heavy thing, I don't say it lightly, but this is 'niggerization'. You are not one of us, you are like the scary black man who we've been trained to fear." – Toure, MSNBC analyst in reference to Mitt Romney.
Toure said this Thursday on MSNBC's the Cycle with S.E.Cupp. Below is my YouTube response. A full transcript can be found at kiradavis.net
The folks at Governor Chris Christie's official YouTube channel have surpassed 5 Million video views, and they couldn't be happier. To celebrate, they've compiled four minutes worth of his most memorable soundbites. Enjoy.
New Jersey Republican Gov. Chris Christie and Newark's Democrat Mayor Cory Booker team up in this video produced for the New Jersey state Press Association Legislative Correspondents Club dinner.
This young man explains to young liberals today how he realized how just about everything he believed politically was wrong, an how this realization changed him from a liberal to a Conservative.
Over the last few days more and more people have been asking me to comment on the Trayvon Martin case. I intentionally held back for a while. I wanted to wait for all the facts to come to light before I added my voice to the fray. We still don't have all the facts, but unfortunately most people aren't waiting for the facts to enflame an already spiraling situation. Here are some my thoughts on this tragic situation. You may not agree with me; I may not agree with you…but is there a way to civilly disagree while pursuing true justice at the same time? I hope. I hope.

How to Rebuild the GOP
The Tea Party's signature victories have come from defeating Republicans in primaries and caucuses. They cannot hold their own against candidates who refuse to submit to the will of a tiny minority of activists. The far right political program is a rotten door just waiting to be kicked in. [Read More]
Worse Than Watergate
Using the Scandalgate Gambit is a terrible mistake, but it has already accomplished the most important goals of its fans. It has shut down any talk of rationalizing the party. It has sucked all the oxygen out of that crazy idea about listening to brown people. It has squashed any effort to build a credible set of policy alternatives. It has allowed the Tea Party to solidify its white-knuckled grip on the Republican agenda. For traditional Republicans longing for a return to sanity the time has come for a change in plans.

Scandalgate Exposed!
What elevates this series of Congressional witch-hunts from mere incompetence to dereliction of duty is the way it has smothered productive inquiry into the Administration's very real mismanagement. By deciding to perform show-trials to entertain the GOP's hysterical base, Congressional Republicans have abandoned policy issues that actually matter. That's the scandal we watched unfold last week on television. [Read More]
Republicans Should Not Surrender the Cities
It would be tough to find a more pressing symptom of the party's demographic challenge than the decline of the iconic Republican Mayor. Symbols of pragmatic, sensible leadership, Republican mayors formed a powerful link to the party's Hamiltonian capitalist roots. Our countryside is continuing to empty as more and more Americans build a life in the city. Rebuilding a competitive urban agenda will be a critical key to building a 21st century GOP. [Read More]
Can the GOP Survive Without an Enemy?
The end of Communism as an organized force in the world was a catastrophic surprise for which Republicans were completely unprepared. Without the sobering force of a good enemy, the discipline that defined the Republican Party for so long has broken down into a confusing calico. Business interests and traditionalists still anchor the core, but as you move out from the center this crazy quilt very quickly grows tattered and ill-smelling. [Read More]
Universal Health Care for the Ownership Society
The country needs a solution that acknowledges the strengths and weaknesses of our current arrangements along with the political realities than constrain our options. How can Republicans build a solution that meets conservative desires for an ownership society and liberal ambitions for universal care? Like this: [Read More]
The Affordable Care Act is a Poor Solution
Senator Orrin Hatch has speculated that the Affordable Care Act was designed to fail. A close look at the Act's contents and history suggests he may be right.
The Affordable Care Act is nothing more than a political stopgap, a waypoint on the road to something that might work. Republicans could stand around complaining or we could seize this opportunity to determine what comes next.[Read More]

"I want to add landscaping to my house, but I don't know where to start!" This is a common statement we hear when clients call us to start a landscape project. Deciding on how to landscape your yard can be a very challenging process, and understandably so! Creating an entire outdoor living space is a unique process for every project. We hope you find the following guideline helpful to form ideas and make the most out of your consultation visit.
Step 1: Prioritze the Features You Would Like
Will your landscape occur in the front or back yard, include features such as a patio, water feature, or landscape lighting, address an issue such as drainage, or a combination of everything?
If you are unsure of what you are interested in, look through books, magazines, or make your own sketch to come up with ideas for your project. It may help you determine the desired size of your landscape, the features to include, how you would like to use the space, as well as your general likes and dislikes. Be sure to share what you have found during your consultation visit
Step 2: Prepare a Budget
Landscapes encompass a wide array of features and are customized for every project. We will work with you to propose a plan that will fit your budget.
If the project is a bit more than you are planning to spend this year, revisit the priorities of your project and discuss the possibility of completing the project in phases, such as: This year install the new patio and expand the driveway, next year install the retaining wall and plants.
Inquire about available financing. Visit CM's website to see our current financing options, which currently includes several no interest paid options with regular payments through the Wells Fargo Outdoor Solutions Card.
Be prepared to provide a down payment for 1/3 of the total project upon agreeing to the proposal.
Step 3: Explore Options
There are many factors that need to be considered that may affect a project. The CM's Team will help you determine the appropriate plants and structures to install for your property when considering such factors as sun and shade exposure, grading, and water flow.
Sprinkler systems do not have to prevent landscape projects from taking place. Heads, lines, valve boxes—they can all be moved! Drip irrigation zones can also be added to systems to help provide proper irrigation for new plant materials.
Consider new features such as, landscape lighting. It will not only accentuate features of your project, but it also adds safety and can extend the use of the area into the night.
Step 4: Consider Timing
Try to find time to have all decision makers present at the consultation so everyone has the same expectations for the project.
If you would like an early spring or summer install, don't be afraid to call in the winter to get the process started. Our designers and sales managers are available year-round.
Consider late summer or early fall installations to allow for greater flexibility in scheduling.
According the Irrigation Association (IA), "Smart Irrigation Month is an IA initiative to increase awareness of the value of water use...and grow demand for water-saving products, practices and services." In the "Water Wisely" article below, the IA shares some simple tips to improve water efficiency for your turf.
Today's irrigation systems include sophisticated controllers that allow you to easily adjust watering schedules to fit different needs.
Get in the zone. Schedule each individual zone in your irrigation system to account for type of sprinkler, sun or shade exposure, and soil in that section. Different zones will almost always need different watering schedules.
Consider soil type. Type of soil determines how quickly water can be absorbed without runoff. Watering more than soil can absorb causes runoff and waste.
Don't send water down the drain. Set sprinklers to water plants, not your driveway, sidewalk, patio or buildings.
Water only when needed. Saturate root zones and let the soil dry. Watering too much and too frequently results in shallow roots, weed growth, disease and fungus.
Water at the best time. Watering during the heat of the day may cause losses of up to 30 percent due to evaporation. Prevent water loss by watering when the sun is low or down, winds are calm and temperatures are cool - typically early morning.
Water more often for shorter periods. For example, if you have 4 zones and you typically water for 15 minutes each zone with a start time at 5 AM, you might change your system start times to 4:00 AM, 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM and have each zone only run 5 minutes. In both scenarios, the system runs for a total of 60 minutes that day, however, using shorter intervals lets soil absorb more water.
Adapt watering to the season. Familiarize yourself with the settings on your irrigation controller and adjust the watering schedule regularly based on seasonal weather conditions. Or invest in a smart controller so your system can make these changes automatically.

Year-end is a time for waxing philosophical, being thankful, assessing the ups and downs of the year and so forth. We were spared the devastating heat of the past two seasons, something for which we can all be grateful. Customers who experienced severe damage during those seasons had the opportunity to re-establish a healthy stand of turf. More customers are opting for aeration twice a year. Still others are recognizing the benefits of more frequent overseeding.
We have increasingly better information about all things turf because of the work conducted by UNL's Department of Agronomy, the Department of Entomology and the statewide system of Extension Offices. As lawn care professionals, we could not ask for a more supportive group of people with whom to work as we continue to look for ways to improve our profession and the service we offer you.
Our last round of fertilizer began October 24. It's not too cold, we have even applied it in the snow. We do plan to finish by Thanksgiving. We sometimes get pushback on this last application. We can only tell you that it is a valuable tool in getting your lawn off to a good start next spring. The bulk of the nitrogen for the year goes down in the fall. You do not want to skimp now.
There are some steps you can take to prepare your tree to deal with the harsh winter conditions that we experience here in Nebraska.
Water: Watering through the fall months is always a good idea, but it is particularly important if we have experienced drought conditions during the summer months. The tree's root system is still active and will take up water well into winter, so making sure water is available is vital to the health of the tree. It is also a good idea to water several times over the winter months, as long as the soil and air temperatures are above freezing. Visit our blog for more information about watering trees in the winter and checking soil temperatures in your area.
Fertilize: The tree's root system is still very active during the winter and will be using and storing nutrients that it takes up from the soil. A fall deep root fertilizer application benefits the tree by making sure it has the necessary nutrients to get through the winter and to be ready to put on new growth in the spring.
Tree Wrap: Extreme temperatures or hungry bunnies and squirrels can cause permanent damage to the tree's trunk during the winter months. Extreme fluctuations between day and night time temperatures can cause frost cracks on the trunk of the tree. If we have temperatures below freezing at night followed by a sunny, mild day, the bark can split when the sun heats up the south and/or west side of the tree. This can cause the bark to expand too quickly. The wound caused by frost cracks can make the tree susceptible to disease or insect infestation.
Bunnies and squirrels like to snack on tree bark during the winter when food is sparse. They particularly like younger trees and trees with softer bark like Crabapple trees.
Using tree wrap can protect the tree from harmful temperature fluctuations and animal damage.
Mulch: Mulch will act as a blanket for the tree's root system. It will protect the root system from extreme cold temperatures. It will also help to keep moisture in the soil. Typically, 2-3" will do the trick. However, do not add mulch right up against the trunk as it is important to keep good airflow around the base of the tree to avoid rotting.
Our arborists are available year-round, so please continue to submit your questions to Ask the Arborist!
There are a few important issues to consider when choosing a tree to plant.
What will be the mature size of the tree? All too often we see a tree that looked great close to the house when it was first planted but over the years grew too large for the site and had to have major limbs removed or even needed to be cut down. If you
Are there any obstructions above the tree? While you are considering size, don't forget to look up! If there are power lines above your planting site, you will need to either choose a different planting site, or choose a tree that will not interfere with the power lines when it reaches its mature height.
What is the condition of the planting site?Site conditions include the amount of sunlight that the tree will be exposed to, the moisture level of the soil, and if the site is protected from or exposed to extreme Midwest elements. For example, a Japanese maple tree will do much better in a protected shady location as opposed to a site that is exposed to harsh winter winds and hot summer sun.
What purpose will the tree serve?Are you looking for a large tree to provide your house with afternoon shade or are you looking for a small tree to add ornamental value to your landscape? Many trees will offer more than one benefit. A large evergreen tree, for example, can provide a windbreak that protects a house from strong winter winds while providing shelter and nesting sites to birds like chickadees, cardinals, and finches.
Many homeowners are looking for a fast growing shade tree so that they can enjoy the energy saving benefits as quickly as possible. It is important to keep in mind that fast growing trees tend to have softer wood than the slower growing trees and will not be as long lived as the hardwood trees. So, if you are looking for a tree that will provide shade for many years to come, you may be better off with a hard wood tree such as an oak as opposed to a soft wood tree like a birch.
Fall is a great time for planting trees! If you are interested in seeing how a tree will look when it has matured, the OPPD Arboretum has many examples of trees that do well in Nebraska. If you would like more information about selecting the right tree for your property, please contact us!
The damage done by the fall webworm looks much more devastating than it actually is. The webbing in the tree usually appears in late July or early August. The webbing starts at the ends of the branches and expands toward the trunk of the tree. Small black caterpillars are found devouring the foliage in and around the web. This activity leaves the tree looking very unsightly but not permanently damaged. In extreme cases, an entire tree may be defoliated. A healthy tree can withstand a fall webworm infestation for several consecutive years without suffering any major effects. A tree that has already been stressed or weakened by another pest may require action.
Generally speaking, fall webworms will favor fruit trees and ornamentals such as crabapple and pear trees. If the webbing is within reach, simply remove it with a stick, broom, etc. The areas of the tree that have been defoliated should leaf out with the rest of the tree next spring.
Tent caterpillar and Gypsy moth caterpillar are two types of pests that are very similar to fall webworm, but they are active beginning in the spring and will continue through the fall. Webbing usually begins in the forks of branches and expands toward the ends of the branches. These caterpillars can produce several generations during one season and should be removed when first noticed.
If the webbing is out of reach or the tree is heavily infested, chemical control may be required. As always, we invite you to contact one of our licensed arborists for any tree care concerns you may have.
In the last third of the growing season, it is important to focus on what keeps a healthy lawn healthy and what can improve a lawn challenged by climate and/or disease.
The first thing we encourage is vigilance. At this time of year, there is a tendency to tire of the turf care practices of mowing, watering, and so forth. It is a long season, and the enthusiasm of spring gives way to the fatigue of the hot days toward the end of summer. People spend less time outside. Consequently, they do not pay attention to changes in their turf, missing opportunities to ward off problems or improve a lawn's situation.
Insect damage, particularly grub damage, typically shows up about the first week of September in our experience. We have confidence in the preventive products we use; but if there is a weak area of the lawn, even a grub population below treatment levels can cause some damage. If you see suspicious areas in your yard, we are happy to check them out for you and provide whatever treatment may be necessary. We encourage you not to pull back sod if you have damage. With treatment and some intense irrigation, we have seen smaller damaged areas come back nicely.
If heat or disease has thinned out parts of the lawn, the window for overseeding or restorative work closes by mid-September. Even if you believe your turf to be healthy, aerate. Aeration-twice a year-is important in keeping the turf healthy. Continue to mow at highest setting throughout the growing season which can extend well into November.
As a reminder, the very helpful website we frequently quote is http://turf.unl.edu/. You can sign up to receive every posting or browse specific topics. Turf info and Backyard Farmer are two great resources for all Nebraskans.
Have you found yourself watering the streets or your driveway? Do you have an irrigation system that is out of date or waters in the middle of a down pour? According to the Irrigation Association (IA), "using an automated irrigation system is one of the best ways to keep your lawn and landscape beautiful and healthy, while minimizing water waste." IA offers some strategies to water more efficiently, saving both water and money:
Consider "smart" controls, such as a rain sensor, that will adjust water based on rainfall. Hire a contractor, who is licensed and insured to be sure the system is installed correctly. Installing a high quality system now and maintaining it will minimize the total lifetime cost of the system. Occasionally, water utilities will actually offer rebates for water-efficient products, such as the MUD rain sensor rebate. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) not only echoes the IA's recommendations regarding "smart" controls, but also recommends drip irrigation for landscape beds. Drip irrigation waters at a lower volume and goes directly to the plant root, minimizing wasted water due to wind, runoff, and evaporation.
If you already have an irrigation system, zones should be set to water for the particular needs of that area based on the sun and shade exposure, slope of the yard, and type of sprinkler head. Water only when needed as overwatering will lead to poor roots, weeds, disease, and fungus. According to the IA, "Watering during the heat of the day may cause losses of up to 30 percent due to evaporation." They also recommend watering in the morning when the sun and winds are low as well as when the temperatures are cooler. Sound familiar? That's because in previous newsletters and blogs we've shared similar recommendations from the UNL Turfgrass Science Program. Also remember to winterize! Winterizing will push water out of the system that could freeze, causing costly damage.
When planning a landscape, the IA suggests choosing plants that thrive in the climate you are in and have lower water requirements, planting them in groups with other plants with similar watering needs, and planting them according to their sun and shade exposure requirements. It is also recommended to mulch around plants and trees as it reduces evaporation, moderates temperatures, increases water retention and controls weeds.
Did you notice how some of these suggestions seem to deal more with turf care and landscape design than an actual irrigation system? A well maintained turf and landscape as well as irrigation efficiency involve all of the components working together.

It seems like "For Sale" signs are popping up all over town. How quickly those signs turn to "Sold" can vary drastically. This is where CM's can help! According to The Appraisal Institute (AI), a global association of real estate appraisers, changes in landscaping can effect the price of the home and how long it is on the market.
The Appraisal Institute specifically lists fire pits, patios, and outdoor lighting as potential additions to value. Both AI and the National Association of Realtors suggest that a well-maintained lawn, trees, bushes, and flowers also are key components of creating curb appeal. Whether you are planning to sell in the near or distant future we can help you to take steps to improve your curb appeal and enjoy your outdoor living space.
CM's can expand or renovate your existing patio and add features such as a seat wall or firepit. These items create more space and your patio becomes an extension of your home's living space.
CM's provides a 6-step fertilizer program that can improve the health and density of your lawn and address weeds. We will also be able to make recommendations for aerating, seeding, and power raking as needed for your lawn. CM's offers many best practice tips for mowing and watering in our newsletter, blog, and through the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension Office as well.
Looking for a quick spruce up to create a wow affect? CM's can add flower beds, a fresh layer of mulch, or prune and maintain your existing flower beds. Remember, house hunters also look at houses at night. Landscape lighting is an easy and quick way to illuminate your home and accentuate your landscape. Now that's a bright idea!
After a slow start, spring may actually be here. Because of the seasonally below average temperatures, turf has been slow to grow. Our schedule, a week late based on what we had planned, will actually reflect a more typical year now that some sense of normal spring weather is occurring. Our second round of pre-emergent will begin during the week of May 6, and we will be spraying any weeds that have sprouted.
Wait as long as possible to provide supplemental irrigation. We have had more than adequate spring rain to carry most turf for some time. Turf provides more than enough hints when supplemental irrigation is needed.
We are indebted to the University of Nebraska for its ongoing support of optimal turf care practices and the turf care profession.

Billy Jo Revie, 16, pled guilty to breaking into the pub in Glasgow on December 17 and stealing items.
The teenager's case was dealt with at Glasgow Sheriff Court by Sheriff Joseph Platt who was involved in the case with those who previously admitted the same offence.
Revie was handed an 18-month community payback order with the condition that she will be supervised.
The sheriff previously sentenced Jordan Parry, 16, and Darren Melrose, 18, to six months detention after they admitted their crimes.
Charmaine Holmes, 17, who also pled guilty, was given a community payback order for 18 months with the condition she is supervised.

We couldn't get enough of them. Their songs were our soundtrack, and we laughed, danced, cried and loved along with them. They flashed across our radio and TV burning brightly … but where have they been lately? As you'll find out in this regular feature, sometimes the stories behind your favorite songs are more interesting than the hits themselves.
(See what the other B2K bandmates have been up to since "Bump Bump Bump.")
Who: Jarell "J-Boog" Houston
Biggest hit: "Bump Bump Bump" (2003)
Claim to fame: B2K, the group that launched Omarion to solo fame, blew up from kiddie faves to arena headliners in three short years. Boog was the "gritty" one whose voice we only heard on a few hooks.
Why do I know that name?: Boog is the first cousin of
actor/singer Marques Houston, with whom he co-starred in "You Got Served." Along with Raz-B and Lil Fizz, he was left behind when B2K broke up in 2004 as fellow bandmember Omarion struck out on his own to solo fame. "Right after the breakup, the three of us came together and tried to get the legal side of everything worked out," Boog recalled. The trio were in the unfortunate position of being label-less but still under contract, as their former bosses at Epic Records were let go during a merger with Columbia Records. With no contacts to turn to, Boog said he's spent the past three years in limbo fighting to get out of his contract so that he could launch a solo career.
Hangin' on the line: "It was impossible to put out any music because I was still signed to Sony through [former B2K manager] Chris Stokes," lamented Boog, who added that Stokes, who manages Omarion, was not keen to let him go. "It's easy for your artist to win when there's no competition. Omarion is his artist, and he released a record the year after we broke up, so if all of us was releasing a record, that would have been something for him to run against. He would have lost, I'll be honest with you." It took Boog until June 18 of this year to finally gain a release from his contract with Sony, and now he's hot to get his career back on track.
Busy, busy, busy: In addition to having two kids since leaving the group, the now-21-year-old singer has been recording at a furious pace at his home studio in Compton, California, tracking three mixtapes and two full-length hip-hop albums. Despite the long layoff, it will still be a while until you hear that music. "It's all rap this time — I'm not doing the stuff I did with B2K," Boog said. "I know how much work goes into making something successful, and I'm not going to do someone else's gimmick. I'm writing my own music this time about how I really feel." Boog is about to go into the studio to record his official solo debut, My First Words, for his Capitalist Entertainment label, which he expects to release next summer.
The four corners: But what about the other unreleased albums? "They're incredible, but those were recorded at a time when the public just won't yet understand it," explained Boog of the backward release schedule he's concocted. "This is a different guy that you never got to see, and [the two completed albums] will take us to where he was born and raised. My dad was on drugs most of my life. I grew up in Compton, in the ghetto. Nobody knows that, and people aren't ready for those words. My First Words will give you the four corners of the box before we open it." Sitting around for those three years watching his bank accounts shrink and not being able to do what he loves the most — sing and perform — were hard for Boog. But the dream of returning to his former glory was enough to keep him going. "We're playing for money — this is not the fantasy," he said, recalling B2K's 2003 headlining tour in sold-out arenas as the highlight of his time in the group. "This is my job. There are a million other talented dudes, but I'm preparing to feel like I'm going to take over the world."
The hardest part: Boog, who is still very tight with Lil Fizz, said his relationship with Omarion is cordial. When recalling his B2K days, he said one of the things that helped break up the group were the strict rules enforced by manager Stokes. "He had rules that were over-the-top, like I couldn't talk to my girlfriend, or I could only see her once a month," Boog said. "We were boys of 15 and 16, we were going to be rebellious. We were working really hard and not asking to go to strip clubs or anything. We just wanted some time to ourselves."
The moral: "Did I see the money? It's definitely one of those stories," said Boog, who described himself as not "sitting pretty" thanks to his B2K money. His advice to young singers is to "keep an ear open to the outside world," and, in a refreshingly old-school touch, he says listen to your parents when it comes to business. "If you're under 18, keep your parents in your life," he advised.
Who: Dreux "Lil Fizz" Frederic
Why do I know that name?: Like Boog, Fizz has kept a fairly low profile since B2K fizzled three years ago, waiting to get out of his Sony contract so he could resume performing. The godfather to Boog's kids, Fizz also kept busy making music during his negotiations, and he got a nice break one day when he was told that former Bad Boy rapper Mase and Fo' Reel Entertainment head Cudda Love were interested in meeting him. "I flew over to meet them, and we spent the whole night hanging out. The next day Cudda called and asked me to lay something down on a track," said Fizzo of the chance meeting three years ago. But because he was still under contract to Sony, Love couldn't touch Fizz, though they kept in touch.
One step forward, two back: With one hot Bryan Michael Cox-produced track under their belt ("Fluid" with Missez) and then an entire album, Fizz and Cudda approached Sony in 2007 to see if the label was interested. But Fizz said they weren't psyched about the project and agreed to release him from his contract in January.
Finally, a real Payday: Fizz fans can finally hear the results with the independently released Payday, which hit iTunes in mid-July and is slated to drop in stores next month. "This time I can express myself and not be somebody I'm not or combine my personality with other people," said Fizz, 21, whose first single, the grinding "Beds" (featuring Ray-J), sounds a bit like the salacious heirs to the B2K throne, Pretty Ricky.
The moral: In some ways, Fizz said, having such a gut-wrenching experience as a teenager was the best thing that could have happened. "Not many people get to experience the feeling of losing a friend and not trusting somebody and seeing the behind-the-scenes of the business and how dirty it can be."
Who: De'Mario "Raz-B" Thornton
Why do I know that name?: One of the founding members of B2K, Raz spent his time in the group soaking up as much as he could about the music biz, which has helped him in his time since their break up. "I've been training the past three years, physically, mentally and spiritually, getting my craft together," said Raz, who taught himself to play piano and guitar and has honed his dancing skills since the group broke up. Though he still speaks daily to cousin and former B2K manager Stokes, Raz has broken professional ties with him and launched his own label, Razbeatz Entertainment.
Boy to man: Raz has been recording his debut solo album, Boy II King, in Seattle and Detroit with gospel great Michael Winans Sr. and his son, Michael Winans Jr. (Diddy, Danity Kane), and he's hoping to drop the album this year to capitalize on the heat of his recent slinky soul single, "Fire." He described the sound of the new tunes as gospel-influenced R&B that isn't religious, but is positive and eschews foul and graphic language. Raz is also keeping himself in the public eye with a cameo — alongside Boog and Omarion — in the recently released video for Fizz's "Beds" single. "We were happy to see each other," he said of the unlikely reunion that took place in June. "O pulled out his camera and took some pictures. It was crazy."
Too many irons in the fire: Raz, 22, has kept busy in his downtime, diligently working on putting together an all-star "We Are the World"-style compilation album he calls Heal the World, and which he hopes will include contributions from such fellow young stars as Lindsay Lohan, Mario, Nicole Richie, Raven-Symoné and his former bandmates. He's also appeared on the Logo network show "Noah's Arc," signed on as the national spokesperson for the National Society of Young Musicians, launched his own foundation for young artists called the National Association of Unheard Artists and is slated to star in an upcoming film from the producers of "You Got Served" called "Rhythm."
Growing up fast: "I learned how to become an adult fast," he said of his wild ride in the music biz. "But I wouldn't take anything back. The experience has been great. I don't point the finger of blame at anyone. Now I'm in control of my own destiny and I'm going to put out music that's not misleading to my [fans.]. This new music is like 'Bump Bump Bump' but it's clearer and less lustful."

Mike Holmgren held a news conference for season ticket holders to explain how that happened, going so far to say that he would have matched Washington's trade offer to the Rams if Jeff Fisher hadn't shut down negotiations. I am constantly amazed at the attention Griffin III attracts just by walking around. I hear fewer and fewer voices say that the 'Skins overpaid ...

OK, here's how I'm going to stop worrying and learn to love the bomb: this PDF is a simple chart I calculated in Excel for a 300mm, based on the formula Ian C passed.
There are two important thing to remember: at 300mm we have infinity focusing, so no bellows factor. At 600mm we are at 1:1 reproduction ratio, which needs 2 stops compensation. Beyond that, it's all tight macro work.
Which means that for any non-macro work with a 300mm, I should expect at most a 2 stops correction. Negatives being negatives, minute errors will not be dramatic. Still, what I did in my chart is to put in bold every 1/3 of a stop increases.
So, armed with a measuring tape (or the camera's, since it's a monorail), I do a quick check of bellows length, match with my chart, and I can adjust exposure within 1/3 of a stop.
The next time, with a different lens, I just have to recompute my table.

|I'm telling you, people. Everyday we wake up is another blessing. Follow your dreams and don't let anyone stop you! Never say never!
|Justin Bieber (pronounced /ˈbeːbər/, BEE-bər; born March 1, 1994) is a Canadian pop/R&B singer. His performances on YouTube were seen by Scooter Braun, who later became his manager. Braun arranged for him to meet with Usher in Atlanta, Georgia, and Bieber was soon signed to a joint venture between Braun and Usher and then with L.A. Reid and Island Def Jam. For all Justin Bieber lyrics, go here.
His debut single, "One Time", was released worldwide during 2009, and charted within the top thirty in over ten countries. It was followed by his debut release, My World on November 17, 2009, which was certified platinum in the United States, which at the time gave Bieber the highest debut by a new artist in the year, and made Bieber the first artist to have seven songs from a debut album chart on Billboard's Hot 100 chart. (Read More...)
Journals" (also known as Complete My Journals) is the second compilation album by Justin Bieber, released as a digital download on iTunes on December 23, 2013 by Island Records. A ten-week digital download campaign entitled Music Mondays, in which one new song was released every Monday night, was held from October 7, 2013 to December 9, 2013. Journals includes five previously unreleased songs in addition to the ten Music Monday releases. Despite promotions of the album that helped Bieber reach number one on the Social 50 chart and the release planned to capitalize the sales rush before Christmas, the album did not fare well commercially, thus it did not chart on the Billboard 200 due to its first week sales going unreported. It was met with mixed to negative reviews from critics.
Take NOTE: There is a Zero Tolerance Policy regarding vandals and other anarchist-like activities. Vandals will be dealt with swiftly with the appropriate force.
- ...that Justin Bieber's middle name is Drew?
- ...that he can solve a Rubik's cube in under one minute?
- ...that he used to be scared of thunderstorms?
- ...that when he was in school, he got an "F" but changed it to a "B" so his mother wouldn't yell at him?
- ...that he wants three kids when he gets married?
- ...that he had his first kiss at 13 years old?
- ...that he likes French, English and Australian accents?
Happy May everyone! :)

What do want to see from a new series
View Single Post
September 30 2012, 11:03 PM
Vito Corleone
Lieutenant Junior Grade
Location: Somewhere in Space and Time...
Re: What do want to see from a new series
I have 2 ideas for this one...
Idea #1...
Bring the JJ-Verse crew to Television after a good run of movies. Make the series like TOS in it's writing style and tone but, with modern FX. Re-use the excellent music from TOS, if possible. The short skirts on the female members of the crew are a must. Women in the Military like to look pretty too... Sometimes...
Idea #2...
- New ship and crew in the 24th Century Prime Universe, sometime after the Dominion War. Ship's mission is patrol through the still devastated Alpha/Beta Quadrants, assisting with rebuilding efforts and maintaining galactic order. It could bring back that 'Old West in space' kind of field that made TOS awesome.
- I'm not opposed to an alien captain but, it has to be someone that a TV audience can relate to and understand. Vulcans, Trill, Bajorans and Betazoids would probably work best.
- If the captain is Vulcan, I'd like to see him be comfortable with admitting that he has emotions but just doesn't express them in public since Vulcans consider that bad form. However, the audience can still see him enjoy them in private. (Examples include wearing colorful civilian clothes and/or enjoying music in his quarters while off duty.) Or, we can see this Vulcan Captain 'bring down the shields' and spend his off-hours trying to relieve the stress that's brought on by having to 'play the Good Vulcan' while on duty. We've never actually seen a Vulcan do that before. Anything Spock did doesn't necessarily set up any kind of precedent because he's not fully Vulcan.
- The ship doesn't have to be a new design. Re-using one of the ship designs from TNG/DS9/VOY would cut down on the show's development costs and help the audience be more comfortable with the new show right from the start. That might prove crucial since the setting is a galaxy recovering from war's devastation and filled with conspiracy and intrigue. That's not your typical rosy 'let's see what kind of mysteries we can uncover in the Great Unknown' type of setting you expect from Star Trek.
- If an old design is used, I prefer the Galaxy Class. The in-universe explanation can be "Starfleet needed a vessel that's both tactically capable and made for exploration, to help keep people motivated and 'waving the flag', so to speak." The actual reason is just because I want to see a Galaxy Class starship on TV again.
Feel free to make whatever kind of interior/technological upgrades you need WITHOUT GOING CRAZY (i.e. faster engines, better computers, et al.), just make sure the hull shape is largely unchanged from the Enterprise-D and/or U.S.S. Venture.
- I'm partial to the name 'Invicta' for the ship because it's the Latin word for 'Undefeated.' Considering how part of this ship's mission is to bring good will and improve morale wherever it goes in the Federation, a name like that could prove beneficial.
Whatever is done though, PLEASE keep the technobabble to a minimum. Just because I, as a Trek fan, can understand it all rather easily doesn't mean that everyone else can.

Governor Bobby Jindal signed into law a bill which will now double the fines for littering in Louisiana. Keep Louisiana Beautiful is asking residents to be mindful when disposing used fireworks and other party debris this weekend. Executive Director Susan Russell says they support anything that increases the enforcement effort.
"We can't stress enough of how important it is to hold people accountable for their actions in our state."
Currently, a first offense of simple littering can result in a $75 fine and a $500 fine for any other offenses. The new law increases that from $150 to $1,000. Russell says what's most important is that Louisiana should be kept clean.
"If everybody just took personal responsibility for their behaviors and actions, laws on the book wouldn't have to be enforced. It's a shame that they have to be there but for some people, unfortunately, they do need to be there."
Improperly disposing items like furniture and appliances could end up costing offenders $10,000 under the new law. Russell says it's very easy to pick up after yourself.
"If you're responsible for what you do then none of that needs to be enforced and so that is the ultimate goal."
Arnaudville's Bayou Teche Brewing is releasing a new beer for the 4th of July holiday. President Karlos Knott says the brew, named 31 Stout, was created in honor of 31 United States service members who lost their lives in the force mission in Afghanistan.
"We're brewing this beer to raise money for the families of the special forces guys who were killed in a mission, they were all Navy Seals and they were killed in a mission called Extortion 17. "
Grandson of multiple New Orleans French Quarter bars, Trey Monaghan, approached Knott with the idea of crafting a beer to benefit the soldiers' families. Knott says members of Extortion 17 were also a part of SEAL Team 6.
"What makes this particular mission, in addition to being such a tragic loss of life in a special operation. It's the same team that actually got Bin Laden, just three months later many members of the same team were shot down in Afghanistan."
Knott says 31 Stout will be released on Independence Day at the brewery, where a band and party will follow for anyone who wants to attend. The beer will be available at a few retailers in Louisiana and in select restaurants. He says 45 dollars from every case and keg purchased will go to families of service members lost in the mission.
"Which is quite a bit of money, because it's quite a few cases and kegs made. So we're excited to work with those guys and all the retailers in the state who are helping us raise that money."

Jim Tressel Resigns From Ohio State Buckeyes, Luke Fickell To Take Over
- Updated: May 30, 2011
This has been a heck of an offseason for the Ohio State Buckeyes and for Head Coach Jim Tressel, but all of it has finally come to a close on Monday. The former Buckeyes man in charge has officially stepped down.
Tressel has been at Ohio State since 2001. Before that, he was the head coach at Youngstown State, but before that, he was at Ohio State as a receivers and running backs coach. The former head man in Columbus went at least 7-1 or better in each of the last six seasons, bringing Ohio State to six straight BCS Bowl games. In fact, since taking over in 2001, he only had two seasons with fewer than 10 wins, and those were the only two seasons in which he didn't make it to the BCS. Tressel only had one non-winning season in the Big 10, including two perfect seasons and six straight at 7-1 or 8-0.
The Buckeyes had a heck of a season last year, which ended in a win in the Fiesta Bowl. Unfortunately, just before that, the program was shaken in a huge way when several leaders of the team, including Terrelle Pryor and four of his teammates were suspended for selling championship rings, jerseys, and other paraphernalia. Tressel elected to not suspend the stars at Ohio State for the bowl game, letting them play as long as they promised to come back to the program for their senior years and serve their suspension handed down by the NCAA.
Later on, the NCAA suspended Tressel for the first two games of the season for hiding those allegations to the NCAA and to the university. Ohio State later increased the suspension to five games to match those of the players.
The pressure on Tressel mounted with each passing day in this process, and it all came to a head on Memorial Day, a holiday that ended up being not so happy for Buckeye Nation.
Now, the shoes for the university will be filled Luke Fickell, the man that was going to be in charge for the first five games of the season in Tressel's absence. A tremendous recruiter, Fickell has been with Ohio State since 2002. He was the defensive line coach for the Akron Zips before coming to Columbus, where he has served as special teams coach, defensive line coach, and co-defensive coordinator.
Fickell will not be named the full time head coach at the university, but he will surely be considered if the Buckeyes have a great season. There are definitely some recruiting problems that the university will have going forward. Ohio State President, E. Gordon Gee and Athletic Director, Gene Smith know that they are going to have a heck of a search for a head coach starting for the 2012 season, when a permanent replacement will be named.

In Reply to: Kenneling worry
: I need to kennel my 6 yr old Jack while on vacation for a week. I have owned the dog for 3 years and in that time, she has been left only with family members for a weekend at a time. That sitting arrangement isn't available for a whole week. My jack is aggressive with other dogs and cats so I can't ask anyone with a pet to take her. I feel so worried kenneling her. Is there cause for my concern? Thanks for any advice.
I understand your concern; no one likes the idea of leaving our beloved pets with strangers. There are several things you can do to make your terrier's stay more comfortable for her and thus, for you. :-)
Take your terrier to visit the kennel and introduce her to the staff at least once before you leave her there. This is also a good time to discuss her particular "quirks," inquire about what you can bring with her, fill out paperwork, etc.
Your terrier's "suitcase" should include a week's worth of food, some favorite toys and treats, her dog bed and a towel/blanket with your scent on it. Keep your good-bye short and upbeat; this is a vacation for her too!
Hope you both have a great time!

Vine List
Vines climb with the aid of tendrils or root hairs or twining stems, or just sprawl across the ground. Some live for centuries and reach gigantic proportions and some are annuals less than 10 in (25 cm) long. In the home landscape, vines trained on arbors or trellises are ideal for shading patios and other outdoor living areas. Some vines are used as ground covers where mowing is not practical, or as living accents on trees.
Around this time of year farmers here in Kentucky remove the flower buds from the waist-high tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants. Sometimes they miss a few, like this on, and the showy, fragrant flowers make an appearance. Click to download a large of version (800x600) of this beautiful burley blossom from my home state of Kentucky (which is also preparing to re-enter the commercial hemp, Cannabis sativa market).

fx5200GO XP drivers
Howdy folks!
Im looking for the latest drivers for my fx5200GO or ones that will work
correctly with GTA:SA. I know that Nvidia doesnt really support them, but
I think they exist. Can anyone help me out??
