ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- For most offensive lineman, the idea of scoring a touchdown would fill them with joy. For Taylor Lewan, recovering a fumble in the end zone during Saturday's 63-13 rout of Massachusetts seems more like a burden that he's had to endure. Speaking at Monday's press conference, Lewan quickly downplayed any expectations that he would brag about his first career scoring play. "I wish Denard had scored the touchdown -- Denard or one of our running backs," he said. "I just fell on a ball. It isn't a big deal." Still, as far as Lewan could remember, it was the first time he had ever scored in an organized game, so a little more emotion would have been forgiven. "In the third grade, I played cornerback," said Lewan, who was presumably much smaller than his current 6-foot-7 and 303 pounds. "The next year, I played quarterback, but I quit after a year because I didn't like getting hit. I'm pretty sure I never scored." Lewan became a defensive end after that, then switc...

Four Star Ultimate Leather Conditioner
Make your leather upholstery last!
Four Star Ultimate Leather Conditioner enriches and preserves automotive leather with mink oil, lanolin, and other natural oils. The conditioner restores the leather's natural moisture levels to maintain its youthful softness and luster.
Four Star Ultimate Leather Conditioner is a rich, lanolin-based cream that prevents the drying, cracking, and hardening that occurs as leather upholstery ages. The preservatives and oils used during the tanning process gradually diminish over time. Ultimate Leather Conditioner replaces them with pH-correct, natural oils that are absorbed by the leather's pores.
Four Star Ultimate Leather Conditioner leaves the leather looking and feeling more like new leather. It will not leave an oily residue on the seats or an overly shiny finish. The subtle satin sheen looks natural and supple with a
pleasant leather fragrance
Besides moisturizing the leather, Four Star Ultimate Leather Conditioner provides long-lasting protection with
the latest UV inhibitors
to prevent drying and fading.
Regularly conditioned leather stays flexible and therefore bounces back from daily wear and tear better than unconditioned leather. If you want to help prevent creases on new leather, start a routine consisting of Four Star Leather Cleaner Gel and Four Star Leather Conditioner.
To apply Leather conditioner, wipe it on the leather using a microfiber or terry cloth applicator. Work the conditioner into the leather. Wait a few minutes for the leather to absorb as much of the conditioner as it will. Then buff the leather with a soft
Cobra All Purpose Microfiber Towel
Moisturize and preserve your vehicle's leather with a rich, lanolin-based cream. Four Star Ultimate Leather Conditioner keeps leather looking and feeling like new.

Huge Improvement
Reviewer2631970により Dec 16, 2010 に掲載
I have been taking Estrovera for two weeks. I noticed improvements the first day. Since my hyterectomy, normal activities were becoming unbearable. My hot flashes were very frequent, during the day working outside was rediculous. I was dressed for winter one minute, then down to indoor clothes the next. I awoke so much at night I was tired all the time and I couldn't think straight. I am still having hot flashes, but the frequency is much less. I average waking 3 times a night now instead of every 45 mins to an hour. I HIGHLY recommend this product.
Reviewer2771863により Jul 10, 2011 に掲載
It took me about a week and I noticed that the Estrovera was working well for me. No more hot flashes and sleeping much better. Its finally nice to get a good nights sleep and its all natural.
it works
Reviewer2530333により Aug 25, 2011 に掲載
Have been using this for 3 months and have had very good results. No side effects and the hot flashes and other menopause issues have improved. I have tried many products, none were as good as this.(Hot flashes and night sweats were the worst,have decreased to the point that they are not an issue)Will continue to use.
hot flash help
Reviewer2697637により Nov 02, 2011 に掲載
This is not a complete fix, but it has surely made a difference!
(Almost) No Hot flashes
Reviewer1640624により Nov 05, 2011 に掲載
I was taken off HRT by my doctor and my endo (other doctor) suggested I take these. They do not get rid of all the hot flashes, but have eliminated most of them and the ones I have are not nearly so intense.

Oven Beef Roast
|Beef joint
|1 Pound (Suitable For Roasting)
|Beef dripping
|1 Ounce (1 Ounce Per Pound Of Meat)
Weigh meat to be able to calculate cooking time.
Wipe with a damp cloth.
Place joint in a roast-ing-tin, season and add dripping.
Roast according to one of the methods outlined below.
Method 1.
Put into a very hot oven (450° F., Gas 8) for 10-15 min to brown or "sear" the meat.
Then reduce heat to fairly hot (375° F., Gas 5) and baste every 20 min for the first half of the cooking time and afterwards every 50 min Allow 20 min per lb. and another 10 min over for solid joints, i.e.joints without bone; and 15 min per lb.and 15 min over for thick joints, i.e. joints with bone.
Method 2.
Calculate the cooking time as in Method 1, but cook the whole time in a fairly hot oven (375° F., Gas 5).
This method is more suitable for large joints, as small joints will not be in the oven long enough to brown properly.
Method 3.
Cook the meat slowly In a covered tin in a warm to moderate oven (335°-350° F., Gas 3—4), allowing 50 min per lb.plus 50 min over for joints without bone; and 20 min per lb.and 20 min over for joints with bone.
Remove on to a hot dish when cooked, remove string and skewer with a metal skewer if necessary.
Keep hot.
Drain off fat from tin and make gravy from sediment.

Play Their Hearts out: A Coach, His Star Recruit, and the Youth Basketball Machineby George Dohrmann
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Robert Wiersema . . . has written an accomplished first novel, the sort of book veteran novelists might well envy. . . . Before I Wake is deceptively easy to read because it is so well written and so emotionally engaging. It is not, however, an easily forgotten book. It will haunt you long after you've lent it to a friend. And lend it you will, because it is too good not to share.
-National Post
We go along for this unusual ride - that takes us to purgatory and awakens images of the inquisition - because we trust Wiersema's consummate skill: a talent that makes him one of our most promising and original voices.
-The Gazette (Montreal)
...rivetting debut novel...Wiersema has crafted a literary, supernatural thriller that grips the reader in a chokehold on page one and doesn't let go until the very last line...Before I Wake is a classic thriller: creepy in all the right places and deliciously suspenseful. Beyond that, it has great emotional depth and resonance.
-The Globe and Mail
Before I Wake is a stunning debut. Robert Wiersema's novel is original, thought-provoking and downright wonderful.
-Michael Connelly, author of The Closers and The Lincoln Lawyer
Through a tale that is both intimate and profound, Robert J. Wiersema reminds us there is magic in truth, and truth in the fantastic. Before I Wake is an edge-of-your-seat debut that is never faint of heart.
-Ami McKay, author of The Birth House
I wept over this book as I read it, and I'm still haunted by it. Wiersema's compassion for us all shines through in writing that is vivid and very often disturbingly powerful. He is a beautiful writer, and this is a beautiful book.
-Gail Anderson-Dargatz, author of The Cure for Death by Lightning, A Recipe for Bees and A Rhinestone Button
I read this book in less than three days, over the Christmas holidays with a house full of family and friends, and every time I had to put it down, I found myself compiling lists of people for whom I wanted to buy it. It captured me from the opening page and kept me going, wanting more, because it is a wonderful story, superbly told. The tight, tersely written chapters with their constantly changing points of view had me totally enthralled, because the characters are all utterly believable; every one of them rings true, with no miscues. A wonderful novel from a storyteller who knows what being a master of the craft entails.
-Jack Whyte, author of the Dream of Eagles series
Inventively told using cinematic jump cuts and fantastical interventions, Before I Wake provocatively dances along the lines between faith and science, life and death. Robert Wiersema's first novel shows a writer possessed with the kind of storytelling instincts that make you care about the answer to the one question that really counts: What happens next?
-Andrew Pyper, author of The Wildfire Season
From the Trade Paperback edition.
A Pulitzer Prize-winning Sports Illustrated investigative journalist traces the story of a talented young recruit, his coach and his teammates to reveal the realities behind professional basketball and the sacrifices made by prodigy players and their families. A first book. 50,000 first printing.
Eight years of unfettered access, a keen sense of a story's deepest truths, and a genuine compassion for his subject allow Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist George Dohrmann to take readers inside the machine that produces America's basketball stars.
Hoop dreams aren't just for players. The fever that grips college basketball prospects hoping to strike big-time NBA gold afflicts coaches, parents, and sneaker executives as well. Every one of them has a stake in keeping America's wildly dysfunctional, incredibly lucrative youth basketball machine up and running—no matter the consequences.
In Play Their Hearts Out, George Dohrmann offers an up-close and unforgettable look inside the maw of that machine. He shares what he learned from his years spent embedded with a group of talented young recruits from Southern California as they traveled the country playing in elite Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) events. It's a cutthroat world where boys as young as eight or nine are subjected to a dizzying torrent of scrutiny and exploitation. Coaches vie to have them on their teams. Sneaker companies ply them with free shoes and gear. "All-star camps" are glorified cattle auctions, providing make-or-break opportunities to secure the promise of an elusive college scholarship.
At the book's heart are the personal stories of two compelling figures: Joe Keller, an ambitious AAU coach with a master plan to find and promote "the next LeBron"—thereby paving his own path to power and riches; and Demetrius Walker, a fatherless latchkey kid who falls under Keller's sway and struggles to live up to the unrealistic expectations his supposed benefactor has set for him. As their fortunes take shape and the pressure mounts—Demetrius finds himself profiled in Sports Illustrated at age fourteen, while Keller cultivates his business empire—Dohrmann weaves in the stories of numerous other parents, coaches, and players. Some of them see their prospects evaporate as a result of poor decisions and worse luck. Others learn how to thrive in a corrupt system by playing the right angles.
Written with incomparable detail and insight, Play Their Hearts Out is a thoroughly unique narrative that reveals the inner workings of an American game, exposing the gritty reality that lies beneath so many dreams of fame and glory.
About the Author
George Dohrmann is a senior writer at Sports Illustrated and the magazine's investigative reporter. In 2000, while working at the St. Paul Pioneer Press, he won a Pulitzer Prize for a series of stories that uncovered a college basketball team's academic fraud. Dohrmann lives in San Francisco with his family. This is his first book.

Have you guys noticed the increasingly depressing threads that are cropping up as of late, we used to get maybe one or two a month. Seriously, I've seen how many threads now closed because shit has gotten mad personal and depressing. Users posting about how much their life sucks and they hate it, how depressed they are, for fucks sake that thread that was just locked that was just about talking about yourselves. We had someone saying if things went south they were going to go on a murder rampage.
I don't like the Westboro Baptists as much as the next guy, probably more so because I had to deal with them picketing at a funeral of a classmate not too long ago. I still don't want to go on a rampage and kill the whole lot of them.
What I'm trying to say duders is, WTF be happy! You have Internet and enough disposable income to play video games, also Turkey day is coming up. FUCKING TURKEY!

Inspiration from ink on paper. No lie.
By concretin_nik Thursday, April 17th, 2014
With theGoogle and thePinterest, it's hard to believe you can actually get inspired to craft by a book! Seriously, ink on paper! I know, crazy talk, right? But you can! Mike Adamick has authored not one, but TWO awesome books of inspiration. I have his first book, "Dad's Book of Awesome Projects" which includes all the instructions you need to build stilts, a rope swing, superhero capes, even homemade ice cream and at least 20 other projects. I know I'm not going to do every project, but there's more between these covers than plans and instructions. Before Mike gives you the first project, he writes about his family in a chapter called, "How to Raise All-Around Crafty Geniuses…" That info alone is priceless. (Though I did get my copy free from Mike himself).
I blame my craftiness on my parents. My Mom is a seamstress (by hobby and necessity, not by trade) and my Dad worked at a cardboard box factory. So, genetics. Yea, I'm REALLY partial to creating with cardboard. Clean, unbent, large sheets of corrugated cardboard is like gold to me. I have no problem claiming a title of CardboardCraftNinja. (See substantiating evidence below.) Kid's got a double oven. Boo yah!
Mike's book inspires me to do even more with my son. When TheBoy grabs the empty egg carton before it hits the trash and says, "Hey Daddy, I'm gonna make something with this!" I swell with pride as he runs off with it with wonder in his eyes.
You can check out both of Mike's books of awesomeness on Amazon. "Dad's Book of Awesome Science Experiments" is sure to provide hours of mad scientist family fun! And "Dad's Book of Awesome Projects" has some fantastic creations, perfect for Summer. Get yours and inspire yourself. Inspire your kids. Have fun!
Hop on Pop…Extreme!

What have I done to deserve this violence?
I have been a loving and affectionate father to my youngest son. In his eight years, I have read to him and tucked him in at night. I have driven him to sports events and cheered him on. I have helped to prepare his meals, wash his clothes and clean his room.
And yet nothing makes this child more gleeful than cleaning out my snot locker with a blind-sided throw-pillow roundhouse. The pained exhalation I produce when he drops a pointy elbow into my spleen makes him positively cackle. He giggles himself into a hiccuping fit with every rabbit punch, body slam, and charlie horse he delivers. Read the rest of this entry »
I Am Not a Paid Endorser of the Final Harry Potter Movie
By Daddy Clay Monday, June 6th, 2011
Reading Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone aloud to your kids before bed is pure magic. You go into the child's room, begin to read, and when you emerge all the dirty dishes have disappeared. That's why I read that book to all three of my kids.
But that's not the only reason. I also like showing off. I deploy character voices and accents. And, unlike my adult peers, the children think my Irish accent is "spot-on." You should hear my characters — Hagrid is a gruff pirate prone to shouting loud enough to wake the other kids, the Weasleys all have a charming Australian/Cockney thing going on, and Mr. Dursley is an almost spooky homage to Fawlty Towers-era John Cleese.
I've gotten so good at it, that my youngest only has to stop me a few times a night to ask "who is that talking?" I particularly struggle to differentiate the bad guys: Snape, Mr. Malfoy and Voldemort all sound like Vincent Price with laryngitis. Read the rest of this entry »

Six Big Kid Sleep Problems: Parents often think kids' sleep problems are over once their babies slumber through the night, but at least a quarter of school-age children have nighttime troubles, says Gregory Stores, M.D., emeritus professor of developmental neuropsychiatry at Britain's University of Oxford. (CNN.com)
'Go the F*%$ to Sleep' Proves a Popular Lullaby with Bleary-Eyed Adults: "It's pretty wild," said Adam Mansbach, the 34-year-old author who was inspired to write the book "for fun" last year based on the "grueling" experience of putting his then 2-year-old daughter to sleep. (LATimes.com)
Chemical Suspected in Cancer Is in Baby Products: More than 30 years after chemical flame retardants were removed from children's pajamas because they were suspected of being carcinogens, new research into flame retardants shows that one of the chemicals is prevalent in baby's products made with polyurethane foam, including nursing pillows, car seats and highchairs. (NYTimes.com)
A Blood Test to Predict Premature Birth Could Hit the Market Next Year: Doctors historically have had little luck predicting which women will deliver early, but now a new study presents a way to detect more than 80% of preterm births ahead of time, with a second-trimester blood test. (TIME.com)
Families Adjusting to College Kids Home for Summer: Summer at home — so often eagerly awaited by the students, their parents and siblings — is often a mixed-up time of happy reunions, unexpected challenges and weird new family dynamics as not-quite adult kids return temporarily to the nest.

2days ago i told my SO,
we might as well bite our tonuges & stay here for another year or 2 (until we can start saving up.)
plus once we pay off our "RAC" bed, we're gonna buy the W/D set. (i dislike lugging laundry ALL the way to the laundry mat!) so once the bed is paid off, im gonna ask my landlord to fix the "sink area" for the washer part down stair's.
(you know how old house's has sinks in the basement for the washer, we have one but it doesnt have a pipe going out. odd right? so im gonna ask them to put a pipe in & see if a normal washer can use a older washer "outlet" i dont think so.)
but yep..... we're gonna "bunker down" for another year (or 2). i'd love to find a house to rent or (rent-to-own). but in reality i dont think THATS GONNA HAPPEN!
oh plus we're gonna "rearrange" our apartment (give DD SO's bed-room) & SO gonna take the play room & turn it into his bedroom & turn DD's old bed-room into the play-room & keep both living-room & kitchen the same.
Good luck momma! I'm sure things will turn out for the best.
Yeah, that's hard. We had to pay a crazy deposit for our cat, ugh!
Quoting powow65:
every apartment i've seen (they are "no pet's" or "no smoking".) so..... we're gonna just stay put. (oh joy.)Quoting angieluvsolivia:
Good luck momma! I'm sure things will turn out for the best.
I live in a old house and just got a new HE washer & dryer, everything hooks up in our old house with no adjustments having to be made.. So hopefully yours will too... As for the drain pipe for it, if theres a sump pump near where your putting washer , you can put drain hose near sump pump hole and have it drain right into there..
Quoting powow65:
phone tag IS ANNOYING but yes, we're not being "evicted" thank gosh.
Quoting proudmommy690:
so you're not getting kicked out?

Longest Day Of The Year Ride
Bike Ypsi Longest (Day) Ride Of The Year Ride – Sunday, June 21st – 8pm – Arbor Brewing Company Microbrewery (Norris at Forest in Ypsilanti) – A very casual paced ride celebrating the Summer solstice and the longest day of the year. This hour-long (at most) ride has a route that will take us to though the summer-quiet campus of Eastern Michigan University and a loop around St. Joes Hospital on the Border To Border Trail. Ride cancelled if raining at start time. Questions? Contact Bob at firstname.lastname@example.com. And remember, six months from now (in December) you will only be dreaming of riding your bike in shorts and daylight at 8pm!
Bike Repair Day at University Townhouses in Ann Arbor
Women's 100(KM) Ride
Some of the Bike Ypsi women will be joining with thousands of other women around the world to ride a metric century (63 miles) on Sunday, July 26, 2015.
Want to join us? If so, consider coming out for some of our shorter training rides (25-30 miles). Information on training rides can be found on our Google Calendar (Bike Ypsi) and on Facebook. We hope to have a couple more training rides with longer miles leading up to the big day!
More info on the Rapha initiative is here: http://pages.rapha.cc/womens100. Feel free to add your name and email to be counted!
Those of us leading these events have an inclusive definition of "woman" and "female" and we welcome trans women, genderqueer women, and non-binary people who are significantly female-identified on these rides. Our goal is not to exclude but rather to build the presence of traditionally underrepresented groups in cycling.
Details on where to meet for the Bike Ypsi July 26th metric century ride will be forthcoming.

BMW Classic Racer Project
Most years I go to Pukekohe for the CMCRR annual festival with a friend of mine and we drool over the bikes in the carpark and wander thru the pits admiring the race bikes and all the work that goes into them. A couple I know race a Harley and Ducati and every year they say " so when are you going to come racing its lots of fun" and every year I say one day.......one day......
I didn't think I could cut it in the over 500cc class and BMW had built a 500 but they were pretty thin on the ground so my friend and I started buying 500 parts on Ebay and sharing the shipping costs home with another guy who was importing VW parts ( who later went on to run the California Superbike School here).
Kelvin and I brought in frames, engine cases, wheels, forks, gearboxes.......most of which were /5 stuff.
Eventually tracked down some 500 cylinders and heads from Victoria Island off coast of Vancouver......
Soon afterwards I located an R50/5 in Wellington for $2700 and had it sent to Auckland, when it arrived it looked sad with flat tyres and covered in dust. I pumped up the tyres, put some fuel in it and away it went, an hour later I had it registered and WOFed.
I liked riding the little 500 but I could not see how it could ever be a racer as it was so slow......
Bought some toaster panels and it became known as Toaster on the local BFTP runs.
Toasty was far too nice to hack so it was back to the drawing board......
Next to arrive was this POS bought sight unseen on Trade Me, cost me $1000 including delivery, was I disappointed.
It had major electrical issues, the conrod had broken the starter motor:rofl
It all got pushed to the back of the shed and I rode around on Toasty for a year or so....but I still picked up bits from swap meets and on TM. Around this time I met Nick ( aka Maxheadroom) on Boxerworks and he was a huge help moving the project forward.
more parts were bought and tinkered with in the hope of building a fast 500.....600cc heads.....600 cc cylinders to be cut down and used with a r65 crank..........
From time to time it was dragged out and parts offered up for inspiration.....
In 2009 a chance purchase on TM changed the scope of works forever.......
Thats all for now...better do some work....:wink:
Cool, good to see you documenting it...:D
Airheads are taking over the NZ Forum!
Fricking awesome bro:clap
May be some competition coming up at a later date - watch this space - well probably not this space, it'll prob be down the page a bit more but you know what I mean:D
keep it coming
Good luck
It's a long and slippery slope. Good luck with the build.
A few ideas made it off the beer coaster into life some good ...some not so...
The welded in rear subframe using really expensive tube.......:huh no...not the PVC ones. Wood was found not to provide much degree of damping...
The DIY second braked fork leg :clap
the ill fated lets bung a 750 top end onto a r26 bottom end ( in a box if anyone want to make an offer)
The " its worth the $350 just for the gearbox mate" swap meet R100 rolling pile of crap...:eek1
There are no pictures of the R50 case with r65 crank shortened r60 cylinders and heads......( also in a box on she shelf of shame).
The big break thru was when I won an R90 motor on Trade Me that had gone down a gravel road smashed the rocker cover sucked in some damp gravel and left to rot in a shed...... GOLD....first motor that had turned up in ages.
A year later 2008....
Meanwhile I had bought a rubber band Ducati 900 and this all got pushed into the corner where it belonged.....out of sight, out of mind.....over it.
2009....a whole year of doing nothing on it.....:freaky
2010....Max Headroom in a moment of weakness said..." why don't you bring that 900 motor down and we'll have a look. So I did and we pulled it to bits.....
Overall in good order apart from broken fins from its slide and some corrosion on the bore.A plan was formulated.
Case was cleaned up, oil pick up drilled out, 10mm flywheel bolts sleeved for later flywheel.....
Fins on heads were welded up, valve guides were fitted with liners, 3 angle valve job, 336 cam, newer lifters and valve gear, pistons were pocketed to suit, 1mm shaved off heads....new rings and a hone......its only a track thrasher....:lol3
That took until mid 2011.
Meanwhile I had tried to sell the Ducati as I wasn't that keen on its modern styling and ride....but the market was dead so ended up swapping it for a Triumph Thruxton.....
So what do you do when you sell a Ducati and buy a fat underpowered 60's knockoff.....you go to the California Superbike School and learn to ride on a track.
Whoo hoo this is fun....
Some sort of Italian bike in the way...:lol3
Did level one and two and now was hooked...... it was now November 2011 and with a completed engine, some spoked wheels with new tyres,some nice machined up bits the Pukekohe Classic Race Festival looked do able for February....only 12 weeks away....so I paid my entry fee and sent off for a race licence......now all I had to do was build the bike up.
Next " The Build"
Subscribed. How much fun was the Thruxton? quite like them.
December 26 2011:
Motor in back of van.
bearing tool made from old steering top bit of tin.
hand sanded frame.
Dented toaster tank with less dents...
Later Brembo fork dampers with racetech kit. Note 6mm holes and additional set above at 90 degrees.
I put Ikons on the rear and it needs emulators and better springs in the front, good all rounder with about 50HP.
"BFTP runs" :scratch
not from around here... plus maybe no 'faster' than that 500
could you help a buddy out with the acronymic colloquialism.
the 500 is the engine size of the R50/5.
That was a brave move. An insurance write off? I gather you didn't pay much?
If its an R65 do yourself a favour bung it on Trade Me.

Heavy Metal In Baghdad
Eddy Moretti, Suroosh Alvi
- movie Description
Heavy Metal In Baghdad depicts the story of a Acrassicauda, a heavy metal band formed in Iraq by five young Iraqi men in 2001. Acrassicauda, which means black scorpion, derived their inspiration from American metal bands such as Metallica, Slayer and Slipknot. They managed to write their own songs and performed a couple of concerts just before the war erupted in 2003, and started destroying their dreams. The restrictions of warfare took a toll on their way of life. Eventually places to play started to become scarce. Finally the band had to flee Iraq due to the persecution by religious groups that deemed the music they played as being satanic. They travelled to Damascus, Syria where they lived for one year as refugees. Still trying to keep their dream of a heavy metal band alive, they are currently residing in Turkey, where they live off donations and receive support from their fans.moreless

Marion County voters should expect changes next year.
The Marion County Fiscal Court is in the process of changing the boundaries of its magisterial districts, and as a result, thousands of voters may find themselves voting in a different precinct in 2012. (Perhaps it's fortunate for county officials that they aren't up for election until 2014.)

Maternal grandparents are Frankie and Donna Hutchins of Lebanon.
Paternal grandparents are Curtis and Irene Downs of Loretto.
Great-grandparents are JoAnn and Charles Owen Smith of Lebanon and Marvin Hutchins and Nick and Ann Bickett, all of Loretto.
Ava Ann has one brother, Caleb.
Gary and Becky Graves of Bardstown announces the engagement and forthcoming marriage of their daughter, Jessica Amber, to Brock Paul Miles, son of Andy and Brenda Miles of St. Francis.
Graves is employed at Spring View Clinic in Springfield.
Miles is employed at Heaven Hill in Bardstown.
The wedding is set for 7 p.m. Sept. 23, 2011, in St. Francis. A reception will follow the ceremony at the Loretto Activity Center.
All friends and relatives are invited to attend.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 4/5/13
Corey Brewer scored 23 points and got a hand on Anthony Morrow's last-second shot to preserve the Denver Nuggets' 19th straight home win, 95-94 over the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday night. Andre Iguodala's layup with 2.8 seconds put Denver ahead in a game that Dallas dominated. The win was bittersweet, though. Denver's dreams of a deep playoff run might have taken a huge hit when they lost forward Danilo Gallinari to what looked like serious knee injury in the second quarter. Gallinari is scheduled for an MRI on Friday, but if his screams of pain and the blank looks of his teammates after he went down with 4:27 left in the first half are any indication, the Nuggets will head into the playoffs without him. Gallinari's left knee buckled inward as he drove to the basket for a layup late in the first half. He gave up the ball, grabbed his knee and hopped to the sideline, where he sat down, writhing in pain as Darren Collison scored at the other end for Dallas. Gallinari was helped ...

Hi DsX,
"If using payments only are there any additional tax or shipping settings?"
--- No, "tax or shipping" is purely split into ecommerce modules (I think the other ecommerce related modules deal with that, like ProductModifier class, etc). The payment only focus on payment methods and their gateways, and how generic it could be to hook up with any places where need a payment.

All three designs for anyone who forgot what they looked like.
Amen. Now that I see them, I remembered why I didn't vote for this one. #3 had a much greater visual impact, not to mention the fact that the rear design seemed a perfect match.
#3 was the one i voted on multiple times. Reeeeeeeeally wanted that to come to fruition

Environmental Issues: U.S. Law & Policy
U.S. Law & Policy Main Page
All Documents in U.S. Law & Policy Tagged renewable energy
- Our Forests Aren't Fuel
- Forests are for wild animals, fresh air, clean water, and hiking with our kids. But now industry wants to burn our forests for biomass electricity, polluting the air we breathe and stealing from future generations.
- Clean Energy and Climate Legislation
This Is Our Moment
- A comprehensive climate and energy bill that includes a cap to reduce emissions would provide the incentives that will create a foundation for the development of a clean energy economy in the United States.
- Support Renewable Energy Grants Program In House Economic Recovery Bill
Legislative Analysis
- For almost two decades, production and investment tax credits have been the primary tool used by the federal government to encourage extensive deployment of clean energy technologies such as wind, solar, and geothermal, and the production of high efficiency appliances. Unfortunately, the current economic climate is drastically reducing profits and thus tax liabilities, which is limiting the effectiveness of these tax credits. Without smart federal action, the construction of new renewable power projects and the manufacture and purchase of new, super-efficient appliances will plummet. Get document in pdf.
- Boosting the Benefits
Improving Air Quality and Health by Reducing Global Warming Pollution in California
Issue Paper
- California has the opportunity to combat global warming while simultaneously improving air quality and public health throughout the state. Measures being considered under the California Global Warming Solutions Act (AB 32) could save hundreds of lives and prevent thousands of other negative health impacts each year -- saving billions of dollars in healthcare costs.
Documents Tagged renewable energy in All Sections
- Global Warming Solutions
- Solving global warming means investing in clean energy, green jobs and smart energy solutions. We can't afford delay. This five-step plan will repower, refuel and rebuild America, starting today.
- A Brighter Future: Shifting the Way We Develop Renewable Energy on Public Lands
- Renewable energy potential in the U.S. is significant, and our public lands can play an important role in helping to transition our economy to a clean energy future. The Department of the Interior is moving to a smarter, landscape-level approach to developing energy resources that facilitates development in the best places while safeguarding the most important values for future generations.
- Think Wood Pellets are Green? Think Again.
Issue Brief
- Biomass is often described as a clean, renewable fuel and a greener alternative to coal and other fossil fuels for producing electricity. But recent science shows that many forms of biomass -- especially from forests -- produce higher carbon emissions compared to fossil fuels.
- Renewable Energy in India
Employment Potential and Financing Solutions for Solar and Wind Energy
- Harnessing clean and renewable energy sources can help meet energy needs in a sustainable way and the growth of wind and solar power in India offers tremendous opportunities to create domestic jobs.
