Earlier this week, I wrote about how my annual green stock trading advice had worked out for my sister and readers (well) and the two stocks where I thought she should take profits LSB Industries(NYSE:LXU) and Potlatch Corp (NYSE:PCH).) I also promised a follow up article on my buy recommendations. Here they are:
Ameresco, Inc. (NYSE:AMRC)
Current Price: $8.97
Suggested Limit Price: $9.20
Suggested Allocation: 21%
Ameresco is a leading performance contracting company, meaning that they install energy efficient and renewable energy solutions for institutions and government entities which are paid for out of the institution's energy budget, from the cost savings. Ameresco disappointed investors with their guidance last quarter, largely due to the dysfunction in Washington. Ameresco's largest customer is the US government.
The stock has been trading down since, and especially in the last few days. Apparently investors are expecting more bad news on February 17th, when they will file their annual results. I'm more focused on the long term, which I think is bright because I expect Obama to do everything he can to increase the government's energy efficiency over the next four years. Since Ameresco's services are paid for out of the budget for utilities, they should be shielded from budget cutting. In fact, Ameresco helps the government balance the books by delivering energy services at lower overall cost.
Given the current pessimism, the stock is likely to rebound even if fourth quarter results and guidance are in line with expectations. That said, I think reader's best bet is to buy Ameresco at market prices on Friday, so long as the price is near $9.
UPDATE: 9:30 am 2/15 Ameresco released an outlook for FY 2012 this morning, and will release full earnings on March 1st. 2012 earnings should be even worse than expected, due to weather and fiscal uncertainty. Ameresco's backlog is at a record high. As expected, Q4 2012 was bad, but 2013 and 2014 look good. I still think it's a good time to buy, and this "disappointment" may produce a short-term opportunity in the mid-$8 range. If that opportunity appears, I'd grab it.
Zoltek Companies (NASD:ZOLT)
Current Price: $8.51
Suggested Limit Price: $7.50 (sister); $8 (readers)
Suggested Allocation: 21% (sister); 10% (readers)
Zoltek makes carbon fiber. Their biggest market is currently large wind turbines, and their biggest customer Vestas (Copenhagen:VWS). The extension of the Production Tax Credit extension should help the company this year, but the long term bullish reason to own this stock will come when auto manufacturers turn to carbon fiber to reduce vehicle weight and improve fuel efficiency, as they are likely to do over the next few years to meet increasingly stringent CAFE standards and EU emissions requirements.
Zoltek is the stock that led me to pick last week to send my sister her annual recommendations. It was briefly trading below $8, and even fell below $7 for a day. I did not think the opportunity would last. Unfortunately, the window was shorter than even I expected, and her limit order did not execute. It probably won't now, so I'm afraid we're going to chalk this one up as "the one that got away." It could still fall back again, but I don't expect it. It's still a good buy around $8, but not the screaming deal it was. I'd suggest readers put in limit orders at $8, but for fewer shares.
Power REIT (NYSE:PW)
Current Price: $10.50
Suggested Limit Price: $10.75
Suggested Allocation: 18%
Power REIT is a tiny Real Estate Investment Trust which owns 112 miles of railway and is starting to invest in Real Estate under renewable energy farms. The $0.40 (3.8%) annual dividend makes it a nice dividend stock for a long term hold in my sister's conservative portfolio, but the company also has the potential for some incredible upside if they prevail in an attempt to foreclose on the massively unfair lease of their track. Details here.
US Geothermal (NYSE:HTM, TSX:GTH)
Current Price: $0.33
Suggested Limit Price: $0.31
Suggested Allocation: 5%
US Geothermal is a geothermal project developer with projects in Nevada and Oregon. Many of its plants have recently come on-line, so earnings growth over the next year is already built in. Nevertheless, developing geothermal projects is a very risky business, so I was conservative on the limit price (there's a good chance the order won't execute) and kept the allocation small.
Canadian Stocks
I found out after I sent my sister her suggested trades that her broker does not let her trade Canadian stocks, even if they have a US OTC ticker, so my sister has not purchased any of these. I won't be including any Canadian stocks next year unless I can persuade her to open an account with a better online broker. But there's no reason readers can't benefit from my picks below.
Waterfurnace Renewable Energy (TSX:WFI, OTC:WFIFF)
Current Price: $16.96
Suggested Limit Price: $15.50
Suggested Allocation: 18%
Waterfurnace is a leading manufacturer of geothermal heat pumps. A reliable dividend payer (C$0.96 annually) it's a long time favorite of mine. I traded as low as $14.90 in late January, but was already well above the limit price I gave her when I suggested buying to my sister. Although I did not really expect the trade to go through, I would have been happy if it had. This is one to watch long term and accumulate on any dips.
Finavera Wind Energy (TSXV:FVR, OTC:FNVRF)
Current Price: $0.22

FORT WALTON BEACH — Holiday shopping season is in full swing, and downtown merchants are trying to attract shoppers by offering products and services that can't be found at the Walmarts and Targets.
"The important thing that we've always focused on is to not try to compete with the box stores, because you can't," said Bobby Nabors, owner of Liquid Surf & Sail. "If you try to compete on their grounds, you lose. You don't have their buying power. You don't have the marginability. You don't have the volume. You don't have the exposure or marketing.
"Our store's focus has always been to offer a product or types of products that box stores haven't done real well with yet," Nabors added. "We offer more specialty brands. We focus more on service."
Nabors said Liquid Surf & Sail will continue to have discounted merchandise during the holidays. However, offering products the big boxes don't have is what draws customers.
Like many stores in downtown Fort Walton Beach, Liquid's participation in Black Friday this year was pretty minimal, with just a few items on sale. Ivey Ladies Boutique didn't participate at all.
"I personally don't believe in Black Friday," said Christi McKechnie, who owns Ivey Ladies Boutique with her mother Laura Valentine. "From a retail standpoint, I think it's a bit ridiculous. I think we all should be able to get a very good deal. If I went into the store on Saturday at normal opening hours, I think I should be able to get the same deal I got on Friday at 2 o'clock in the morning."
Ivey opened seven years ago. McKechnie said its products — and more importantly, its customer service — is something shoppers can't get at a big box retailer.
"I'm not in business to compete with the big box stores," McKechnie said. "What my customers receive … is they get a very good deal. They get very good customer service. My customers feel like they're part of the Ivey family. I call them my girls.
"We're blessed in this community with very giving people and very loyal people, and I'm just thankful for all of them," she added.
Artesano Hand Made Jewels gets away from larger competitors by offering hand-made products and art pieces that can't be found anywhere else.
Artesano, owned by Jon Via and his girlfriend Nikki Lyons, works with artists from around the Southeast as well as a group of artists from Peru to make many of their specialty pieces. Via and Lyons also design a lot of the jewelry and leather bags themselves.
"We specialize in a lot of unique gifts and hand-made gifts, so it's not something you can find everywhere else," Via said. "People like that nowadays. People like the specialized things.
"Uniqueness is how you have to set yourself apart from those big retailers, and having stuff that they don't have," he added.
Via said his store will have sales throughout the holidays and will have a different item on sale each day for the seven days before Christmas.
Run With It did participate in Black Friday, when all its apparel and accessories and some of its shoes were 30 percent off. Tammy Cox, who works at the store, said the holiday season is off to a great start.
"With us being a running specialty, running shoes is different than shopping online," Cox said. "It's something you need to try on."
Run With It offers military discounts and has a unique way of offering other deals for the holidays. The store will sponsor a run Dec. 8, and participants will receive a numbered identification bib to wear that will include a 25 percent off coupon for the store.
Plus Skateshop is another downtown specialty business that offers unique merchandise. While the big box stores carry some of the same brands, owner Lee Feldmeir said his shop gets products designed specifically for specialty stores.
"The Black Friday weekend was pretty strong compared to last year," Feldmeir said. "I've got a good feeling about the entire season as a whole.
"We compete quite well with them," he added of going up against larger stores. "Having someone enter the business and be able to walk out with it, the power of immediate gratification is important to us."
Feldmeir said Plus Skateshop's Cyber Monday sale also was successful. He plans to hold another 48- to 72-hour sale before Christmas, but the date has not been set.

The thread is about how the engine's license affects game content. Specifically, all game code must be GPL. Art can be any other license that is compatible.
In Evo, the art is CC by NC ND, and the code is GPL. The project itself is also CC by NC ND. An example being, you couldn't just copy it and make a derivative of the project itself without permission.
It is not uncommon for open source projects to make use of multiple licenses.
GPL is for code, not art. Anyone can tell you that. CC is great for art but not so great for code.
>You seem to be confused... Where did you miss the part about all of the code being GPL v2?
No I'm not, as you can see in the link above "The engine and all game files".
>Only the art is off limits, specifically models and textures for those models. Everything else is fair game.
I guess you don't understand: We are the LGDB not LEDB - We list games not engines! :)
Art is an important thing in a game it makes your game/mod different to all those other spring mods. Without the assets EvolutionRTS is just (a/the spring) engine and not a game.
Open game art might also be far more useful than another engine,
because it allows the reuse for countless other projects/people.
==>Code is only useful for programmers, art is useful for everybody.
You seem to be confused... Where did you miss the part about all of the code being GPL v2? Only the art is off limits, specifically models and textures for those models. Everything else is fair game.
The project itself is nc nd, but the things contained therein are sometimes under other licenses that are compatible. In this case, GPL v2.
>It may not comply with the OSI, but that does not mean that it isn't "Open Source".
OSI is the only organization that uses the term "open source" in the public. Other organizations like debian or the fsf use "free software" but all agree that the nc and nd licences are not free or open.
>I suggest modifying how you use the term "Open Source", because it does not mean what you are intending to mean...
I see no need for that. If you use a term like open source you need a clear definition what it is and the OSI is the only organization that provides one. It's also already described here ( http://www.lgdb.org/game_categories#12 )
It may not comply with the OSI, but that does not mean that it isn't "Open Source". I suggest modifying how you use the term "Open Source", because it does not mean what you are intending to mean when you use it ambiguously.
As you can see in the 3rd above link the license isn't approved by the OSI. It might be not ideal how we handle licenses, but licensing is messy and we are no lawyers so we use the term "open source" which is connected to the OSI.
Since this is dealing strictly with linux, I would muchly prefer that the instructions on the SpringRTS.com page were followed. That will ensure the best possible experience.
Those instructions are basically this page:
For Debian/*buntu it's pretty straightforward due to synaptic. The rest are pretty simple as well.
Desura evo simple sends you to http://www.weblobby.evolutionrts.info , which up until a few weeks ago was perfect, but web browers are tired of java and oracle sucking, and have declared war on both, so self signed applets are in deep doodoo.
I actually made a newspost regarding this yesterday:
Unfortunately, cross platform apps like spring tend to get really messy due to the extreme differences in how windows packages are handled vs linux packages.
Moreover, linux packages get extremely difficult to deal with when you have an app that actively supports multiple versions of itself (such as spring... the lobby downloads whatever version of the engine is appropriate for you automatically).
Spring went though a pretty intense growing period of static linking, which is how multi-engine is handled now.
Anyway, thanks for your comments and support. I rewrote the about page last night, and while it isn't any great literary work, it should be a bit more appropriate.
I wasn't aware that I could edit the about page myself... I'll hop on it. Thought I would add some pictures to illustrate the "Features" list as well on the main site. Dunno if I can add images inline here, but if I can, I'll add them here as well.
Thanks much for everything!

A genealogy blog focused on families settling in East Tennessee and the Northern Neck of Virginia with explorations of Rusyn roots.

Follow Friday: Sharing a Slice of Life
So it was quite a kick this morning to start dipping into the blogs and find Carol's beach reverie at Reflections From the Fence which led me to Sharing a Slice of Life. Most of what I've done here has been a family history variety of what Lisa so perfectly labeled 'show and tell' - especially this summer of weddings. And that is my goal. But texasblu's prompts open the memory floodgates and the most amazing images and snippets flow by. I may not post each week, but I can't imagine a better way to start or finish my day than sipping something appropriate to the hour and letting the memories she prompts wash over me. Well, maybe not the Bug prompt. Don't want that washing over me - ever.
But beaches - those memories will flow forever. I grew up on a New England beach, honeymooned on Virginia Beach (it is for lovers - until the hurricane warnings are posted and the Navy sails out to sea), watched my daughter take her first steps on a South Carolina beach (still littered with debris from another hurricane), dragged my children back to New England every summer to rocky and sandy beaches, watched them grow up (and marry!) on a Michigan beach where I sit now contemplating my return to a beachless home. We will be back next summer, will walk a mile south of town and see this, and know we are still creating new memories.

Thanks for the shout out, isn't Slice of Life great fun?? Getting stories on the blog are part of my overall plan too.ReplyDelete
Great entry and fab fab fab photo!
Grand Haven. Ohhhh love it over there on Lake Michigan. MORE FAB FAB FAB!!!
Oooooo - LOVE this picture! And picturesque memories to go with it too - the thought of your daughter taking her first steps on the beach after a hurricane is touching!ReplyDelete
You know, a lot of people were startled by the bug prompt, but we got some great stories out of it - I have to admit though, it was one of my more, ah, interesting ideas. heh-heh! Thank you for joining us this week! :)
Love the picture that so greatly expresses your thoughts. I have been so impressed by how many have loved the beaches. I love Carol's offering too.ReplyDelete
Comments related to the information shared here are most appreciated. All comments are moderated, and since I am not actively researching right now it many take a day or two for your comment to post. Please know that it will post, and that I much appreciate the feedback.

light beer?
i weighed a 30 pack of so called "light beer" on my digital scale and compared the weight to "regular" beer.
now either this wall-mart china quality scale is telling me a big fat lie OR this light beer is actually heavy!
i think it is all a evil plot by the "MAN" to keep a brother down!
i would take the beer back to wally-smartz and demand a refund, but the beer in the cans mysteriously vanished!
anything to keep a "Brother" down don't ya know!

Thanks everyone.
I'm finally getting around to posting some pictures. It was indeed my easiest recovery from pre-e: pressures back down to normal a week postpartum, plus pressures never got severely high.
Unfortunately I wound up with a postpartum infection and then caught a virus while Baby Annabelle had feeding issues due to jaundice/supplementation/bf'ing issues and lost more weight than usual. She is gaining now though so we are on the right track.

The Georgetown Front Street Fire Consultant Selection Committee has chosen LS3P, an architect firm out of Charleston, for the 700 block redevelopment project.
The committee, made up of city, county and regional officials and representatives of the seven property owners, heard from three architect firms on Thursday.
The other firms were SGA Architecture and Tych & Walker Architects, LLC.
In a written statement, Georgetown Mayor Jack Scoville said LS3P has been asked to conduct a feasibility study for the reconstruction of the 700 block of Front Street.
All three finalist firms submitted outstanding presentations and it was a hard decision, he wrote.
The next step is to schedule a meeting with LS3P to make a presentation to City Council. City Council will make the determination to engage the firm to conduct the study.
The feasibility study will include working with property owners, adjoining property owners and merchants, and city and local governmental agencies to determine options for foundations, infrastructure, and possible financing within the scope of the building codes and regulations.
It is imperative that we understand the ideas, desires, and abilities of each property owner so that common ground can be reached on how to proceed in rebuilding, Scoville said.
He added that while each building site is privately owned, the city owns the street front and the land from the high water mark to the center of the Sampit River.
City property is intricately involved in this rebuilding effort, he said.
This is a joint exploration of concepts and ideas, Scoville said.
The property owners are at liberty to work with independent contractors and architects.
David Burt, project manager and vice president/principal for LS3P said, This is a very exciting project, although it resulted from a devastating fire.
We are looking forward to getting to know the people in the community, the owners of the spaces and all the stakeholders in the community. I think this project will be a great addition to Georgetown.

In May 2013 UAA embarked on a thoughtful, comprehensive self-evaluation process of reviewing, evaluating and prioritizing all of our academic programs and support functions. Prioritization was initiated to guide the growth and development of UAA, and to enable us to build the best university we can for Alaska.
The prioritization process has not been free of bumps, but it has allowed us to begin a crucial, participatory analysis of our current programs and services. As we continue to move forward with prioritization, our goals remain the same: to ensure strategic investment in the programs and services that most align with our mission, our strategic plan, and the needs of our students and state. In order to remain a healthy, sustainable university for years to come, this will be essential.

my old trusty 029 super chainsaw cut it last log the other day. now i am shopping around for a new one. normally this would not be too much of a problem as my father was a logger back in the day and back then we knew which saw was best and durable enough for the job.
but the 041s, husky's and johsreds that we knew are long gone in their place are all new shit of questionable durability and reliability!
what i am needing is a medium sized saw of around 50cc or more displacement, 16 to 20 inch bar--not too large and heavy but big enough to get through the wood. start quick and run reliable. none of that going dead/hard to start shit. lastly it can't cost a mint. remember i got to buy important shit like ammo!
saws i have been looking hard at are husky 455 rancher. i have had good luck with husqvarna stuff and i can get a really good price on this model. the new ones worry me because the EPA made husky lean them out too much. and i have seen on the internet rumor net they can get mixed reviews. could be just green-horn mistakes though. i can fix the lean problem myself but it may void the warrenty--lol
the dolmar 5100 looks pretty good the price is OK--but i am cautious about a brand i have never run before.
any ideas?

Document Type
- Doctoral Thesis (1) (remove)
- Di-electron spectroscopy in HADES and CBM : from p + p and n + p collisions at GSI to Au + Au collisions at FAIR (2009)
- The study of the electromagnetic structure of hadrons plays an important role in understanding the nature of matter. In particular the emission of lepton pairs out of the hot and dense collision zone in heavy-ion reactions is a promising probe to investigate in-medium properties of hadrons and in general the properties of matter under such extreme conditions. The first experimental observation of an enhanced di-electron yield in the invariant-mass region 0:3 - 0:7 GeV/c2 in p+Be collisions at 4:9 GeV/u beam energy [2] was announced by the DLS collaboration [1]. Recent results of the HADES collaboration show a moderate enhancement above n Dalitz decay contributions for 12C+12C at 1 and 2 GeV/u [3, 4] confirming the DLS results. There are several theoretical explanations of this observation, most of them focusing on possible in-medium modifications of the properties of vector mesons. At low beam energies the question whether the observed excess is related to any in-medium effects remains open because of uncertainties in the description of elementary di-electron sources. In this work the di-electron production in p+p and d+p reactions at a kinetic beam energy of 1:25 GeV/u measured by the HADES spectrometer is discussed. At Ekin = 1:25 GeV/u, i.e. below the n meson production threshold in proton-proton reactions, the delta Dalitz decay is expected to be the most abundant source above the pi 0 Dalitz decay region. The observed large difference in di-electron production in p+p and d+p collisions suggests that di-electron production in the d+p system is dominated by the n+p interaction. In order to separate delta Dalitz decays and np bremsstrahlung the di-electron yield observed in p+p and n+p reactions, both measured at the same beam energy, has been compared. The main interest here is the investigation of iso-spin effects in baryonic resonance excitations and the off-shell production of vector mesons [5]. We indeed observe a large difference in di-electron production in p+p and n+p reactions. Results of these studies will be compared to recent calculations. We will also present our experimentally defined cocktail for heavy-ion data. At much higher beam energies experimental results of the CERES [6] and NA60 [7] collaborations also show an enhancement in the invariant mass region 0:3 - 0:7 GeV/c2, in principle similar to the situation in DLS. A strong excess of lepton pairs observed by recent high energy heavy-ion dilepton experiments hint to a strong influence of baryons, however no data exist at highly compressed baryonic matter, achievable in heavy-ion collisions from 8 - 45 GeV/u beam energy. These conditions would allow to study the expected restoration of chiral symmetry by measuring in-medium modifications of hadronic properties, an experimental program which is foreseen by the future CBM experiment at FAIR. The experimental challenge is to suppress the large physical background on the one hand and to provide a clean identification of electrons on the other hand. In this work, strategies to reduce the combinatorial background in electron pair measurements with the CBM detector are discussed. The main goal is to study the feasibility of effectively reducing combinatorial background with the currently foreseen experimental setup, which does not provide electron identification in front of the magnetic field.

Thunder in the Vicinity

To The Editor:
Gaye Symington, in her opening statement regarding the impeachment bill, said she was voting against it. Although she believed that the Bush administration may be guilty of illegal wiretapping, torture and war, it is a waste of time, energy and money to pursue an impeachment investigation. Such an investigation, she said, would hinder efforts to move forward with health care, education and environmental issues.
Unless we are living in the moment, this argument is completely illogical. For the moment, the distraction of an impeachment investigation would no doubt sidetrack efforts and finances that could be spent on more concrete and centrist issues. But we have to consider the long term effects of the corruption and criminality which administration is very apparently guilty of.
What if, when the Enron scandal broke, the justice system decided that an investigation was a waste of time and money because the company was already bankrupt; people had already lost their livelihoods and savings, so let's just write it off and move on. Absurd, right? Not only did the executors of the Enron debacle need to be punished, a message needed to be sent to all corporations that this kind of behavior will not be tolerated. If we let the Bush administration get away without answering the questions of why we invaded Iraq, why American citizens have been illegally spied upon, why torture has been condoned, we're sending a message to future administrations, and to the global community, that this type of misconduct is acceptable to Americans.
A congressional investigation isn't enough. If you or I committed a crime, we would pay the consequences. Our elected officials should not be above the law. They should be scrutinized more rigorously since they are in a position of authority. To Ms. Symington's point about actual impeachment being highly unlikely to occur, I remember the infancy of the Watergate investigation and how I thought that it would never accomplish anything; I was wrong. At minimum, Vermont could have sent a message to the world that Americans do believe in democratic principles, and do not condone torture and unnecessary war. It's wonderful that the Vermont Senate had the courage to start this process, but then we dropped the ball. I just hope it can be picked up again.

GSP : Lets do drug testing through VADA, I pay (VADA has offered it for free to GSP.)
Hendricks: No, VADA are good friends of yours so I'd rather do the testing through WADA.
GSP: (ignores Hendricks request and starts VADA testing without hendricks) HENDRICKS IS DUCKING THE VADA TESTING!!!! (not ever mentioning that Hendricks never agreed to VADA but instead wanted the testing to go through WADA)
Hendricks : I told you I wanted the testing to go through WADA because VADA are good friends of yours and that relationship makes me uncomfortable
GSP: But I don't want to test through WADA unless I know exactly what they will be testing for and when they will be testing.
Hendricks and Keith Kizer: They will be testing for banned substances
GSP: But I want to know exactly which banned substances they will be testing for so I can notify my nutritional staff.
Keith Kizer : GSP's ridiculous request for information is the same as him refusing to go through with WADA testing.
GSP: (now under the gun and spotlight) LETS DO ALL THE TESTS AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE!! (complete overkill and unreasonable reaction)
IMO, GSP seems to be acting more suspiciously then Hendricks.
I don't know what they mean when they say X or Y turned down WADA testing, but strictly speaking, there's no such thing. VADA uses WADA-accredited labs.
I find it hilarious that this has somehow been turned around on GSP and Hendricks skips away into the sunset - it must be nice to be the guy that can do no wrong, no matter what is said / agreed to / asked about/ etc.
Got a lot of soul searching to do. Sorry to everyone I've let down

Students investigate career paths through Lilly Project summer grants
This summer Astra Lincoln '14 learned the hard way that research projects don't always go according to plan.
Lincoln received a Lilly grant to study WWOOF —Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms— in Canada, but instead found herself deported by border patrol officers who suspected her of attempting to illegally immigrate.
Lincoln wasn't discouraged by the set back, which she viewed as an opportunity to take her research in a new direction,
"I ended up hitchhiking over 2,800 miles to different spots in the U.S., including a [Community Supported Agriculture] homestead in Vermont and a freegan commune in California," Lincoln says. "These experiences allowed me to add a greater variety of personal anecdotes to my research than if I had stayed in one place."
Lincoln was one of three of this year's Lilly Project Summer Research Grant recipients to present her findings in the Hatfield Library on Oct. 31. The other presenters were Ceara Lewis '13 and Jill Mayer '15.
Lilly grants provide $3,000 stipends for students to perform summer research related to the exploration of vocation.
"These grants allow our students to ask questions about the theological, ethical or spiritual underpinnings of the choices that people make for their lives," says Karen Wood, the university chaplain. "As our students gain insight into other people's choices, the importance of their own opportunities and decisions becomes more evident."
With funding from the Lilly Project, Lincoln studied how to use WWOOF and other work-exchange programs to live and travel long-term without an income.
Lewis investigated Aleut traditional fishing in Naknek, Alaska through interviews with three generations of her family and friends. And Mayer explored the lifestyle and community surrounding sean-nós singing in Cill Chiaráin, Ireland.
As a music major with a passion for singing, Mayer plans to incorporate her new understanding of the sean-nós culture and music into her own life.
"When I perform now, I try to tell a story and make the performance about the song instead of about me," Mayer says. "If the Lilly Project hadn't funded my curiosity, I wouldn't have been able to complete my project at all."
Lincoln's research has been accepted by an e-book publishing company — an achievement she attributes to the connections she made through her Lilly grant project.
"Vocation is a certain attitude toward approaching life, not just a job," Lincoln says. "The Lilly grant opened new doors, and I'm now in touch with dozens of people, farmers and scholars who are as passionate about wandering as I am."

Georgetown police had to use a gun and Taser to stop a vicious charging Bulldog Monday morning.
Animal Control Officer Shelley Brantley was sent to the 600 block of South Kaminski Street because of an abandoned dog. A neighbor said she was concerned for her childrens safety because of the dog. She said the owner moved out of the home about two weeks ago.
When Brantley got out of his truck, the dog stood up and started looking at him, the report states.
The dog had no food or water, was flea infested and very skinny, according to the description in the police report.
Brantly got in the back of his truck to place food in the dog trap which he planned to place on the ground. That is when, Brantley states, the dog charged towards the truck as if it were about to attack.
Brantley states he then pulled my sidearm out and fired one shot downward toward the dog. The dog received an injury to the side of its lower jaw and ran back towards the steps, Brantley reported.
Brantley called for backup and when two other offciers arrived, they tried to get the dog with the catch pole but the dog kept running away.
Additional officers were called to the scene because the dog was still acting in a vicious manner, according to the report.
Capt. Nelson Brown shot his Taser at the dog and Brantley was then able to place it in the trap.
The dog, Brantley states, was transported to the Saint Frances Animal Center where, due to its physical condition and aggressiveness it had to be sedated and then put down.
The next day an officer saw a man at the house where the Bulldog was found. He said the dog belonged to his mother.
He was issued a citation for Cruelty to Animals and must appear in court in August.

I'm 13EE and no shoe alive fits me. Even with the Heritage shoes, I need orthotics like SuperFeet. The Ariats run wide. The English paddock shoes ran narrow. With SuperFeet these are wearable all day and quite comfortable. They need to be broken it--an annoying process that is worth it.
These are by far the most comfortable boots I own. I just about live in them.
These lace up work boots are extremely comfortable from the begiing They look broken in but still attractive and sharp. The laces keep your foot from moving around inside the boot: great for those with foot problems.
I bought a pair of these Ariat Heritage Lacers two years ago. By far the most comfortable riding boots I have ever worn. Great comfort from the first wearing. I will be getting another pair when these are worn out.

Hey iMore, choose me! I'm a loyal Apple customer and AVID iMore reader! Oh yea check out my art! IG: UpUpAndAwol

I love Apple because the make great products and they are not afraid of doing things their own way. Imore tells me about the best products in the world- from Apple. Imore + Apple the best of both worlds.
Alright, so I'll start with Apple, and round it up with iMore.
I was first introduced to Apple in 2009, with the iPhone 3GS. I was also gifted the iPad 2 the summer of 2011, which I still own (iOS 6.1.2 and jail broken). I just recently upgraded from the 3GS to the 5s, and wow, what a jump that was! I prefer Apple and iOS over Android and Windows in the mobile category because, simply put, it's a better fit for me. Apple's outstanding hardware quality is so appealing, I'm more than willing to overlook the lack of expandable storage. Apple's devices also hold resale value extremely well, something that cannot be said for the majority of their rival's products. Their operating system? Sure, iOS definitely lacks the extensive customization of Android, but I do not need all that to convince myself that I'm content with what's insider device. I will admit that I'm glad my iPad 2 is jail broken, and am anxious to jailbreak my 5s as well. For example, 2 and a half years later, my iPad 2 still has the option to be up to date with the latest software and can perform almost any task I need it to. That longetivity is rare in the fast-moving world of mobile technology. "iPad" and "iPhone" have become a household name for tablets and smartphones, and that is not an easy task for any company.
Alright. So when I was ready to tune in to today's Apple event, I went to iMore without any second thoughts. I read A LOT of articles on a lot of topics, so I use the app Flipboard, which is a compilation of inter articles. Under "Apple News", every single day, I see one source that is updated and cited more often than any other site. I've come to appreciate their articles, their views and opinions, and even their editors' choice of humor. Do I sometimes disagree with some of their articles? Of course. But I always find myself reading those articles anyway, to see and understand their point of view. I like the community that has built up on iMore, only from what I can tell from comments, and how iMore actually get INVOLVED with their users with polls and giveaways, just like this one. Overall, I'm grateful for the day I discovered your website. Thanks to the whole iMore staff!
Best of luck to everyone! (But not as much as for myself) ;D
Today of all days you ask? A day when new product is being announced and we're all fixated on the 'more things to cover' event? Easy - iMore gives us our fix of information on the subject that we simply cannot do with out. Now, can I have my new iPad, please?
I love iMore because you bring me fresh Apple news. I love Apple because their products are pure bliss and happiness!
I love apple products! They might not have all the top of the line specs but, they always seem to work just as you need them to, and that is what counts for me. Now put all of that with excellent coverage from our friends at Imore and who could ask for more?
Apple iPad Keynote day! Apple products just work. I dont have any hassle with them and iMore always has the news I want to read! Love you guys.
Apple is the best. iMore is the icing on the cake. Plain and simple. Thanks for hosting the contest and good luck to everyone.
iMore allows die hard Apple fans not unlike myself find their center in all of the useless press releases out there. If i want the best most accurate news i always turn to iMore either on the net or on their iOS application. I cannot go a half a day without using iMore or my iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Mac, Macbook Air. I love the ecosystem and cant wait for the next generation of Apple products. A proud user of iMore than you guys so much. My new blogging team at Edgeintech model you guys and hope we can one day join the ranks.
Apple products are easy to use - even my 72 year old mother can work an iPad! I'd love to win a new one for her as she's on an old iPad 1! I love iMore because I've learned things that I didn't know I needed to know ;)
hehe this i like the funniest comment.
Like ^
As always no one comes close when it comes to give a ways. Somehow us fans really need to find a way to show our appreciation for all the hard work you guys do at iMore. Not to mention the great up to date news that we enjoy every day. No better guides for new products or apps. Great job.
Good Day Sir
I need it cause I still use iPad 1 :)
Please, please, please give me the new iPad! I'm glad Rene is a regular on MacBreak Weekly, he does a great job.
I love Apple products including my iPad 3 (time to upgrade *wink *wink). And what better place to get the lastest and greatest Apple news than iMore! Love love Apple and iMore!
I love Apple because they have the best devices than all the other companies. They have so many awesome apps on these awesome devices. The new iPads should be amazing and cannot wait for their release. I love iMore because they have great stories, great writers and have awesome contest like this one. Keep up the great work.
Apple designs beautiful products and iMore lets us know about them and how to get the most from them. Great products and great reporting.
I love Apple because of the way everything is connected. You could have an iMac, iPhone, MacBook and an iPad and all your data can stay synced.
While I only have an iPhone at the moment, an iPad would be great as I can pretty much replace my noisy desktop. I don't do much video, editing and the sort. I read a lot, do some voice recording (VOVA aspirations) and watch videos. The iPad would be great for that.
I love iMore because they give me the option to get free Apple stuff, and I Love Apple because they make the best products.
I like iMore because I used to work at Apple and iMore seemed to be the only blog site that's post on such a consistent bases with helpful info not just fluff. The majority of readers seem more informed which gives a better experience when reading comments. Basically, iMore is the closest you can get to trusting info on a blog site. Others you just never know what your reading...
you worked at apple?? nice! what did u do there?
I love iPhone and iMore because they go so well together! You can't have one without the other... it just doesn't make sense! There's nothing else like Apple and iMore, two different things but the same perfection in what which one does. As Apple puts so much love to each new product/software they designed and build, iMore writers make each post like were writing an article on the best newspaper. In spite of one being a blog and the other a company, in the end the ideology of their work is the same, make everything with love, dedication and the most perfect detail.
If I could live without Apple or iMore, probably I could but my live will never be the same!
I have the iPhone iMore app, I like iMore on Facebook, I follow iMore on Twitter, I check my iMac for iMore every hour! Seriously huge/loyal fan of the site! Would love an iPad to travel with and use with work everyday!
We love iOS simplicity and thats why we love Apple products and one of the best source for our daily news and updates is iMore...!
I've been an Apple guy for the last 4 years. I'll never go back. I LOVE my iPads and would love the new one!
Love good quality of the products & services and the coverage Imore gives for these! thanks guys really helpful those tips and info!
Because Apple products just work and iMore tells me which apps are worth it and what's happening in the world of Apple.
I will now beg silently...

iMore has the best coverage of my favorite company - that's why.
Having never won an iMore contest, you guys are making me sentimental about apple :).
My love for apple started in 2006 when i started using iPod and it is increasing exponentially with every product launch. I believe their software and hardware goes well together, that seperates them from their competitors. Plus, i abosolutely love their customer support staff, those guys are just awesome.
Having products from apple is great. Having the help and reviews, tips, tricks from iMore is the greaterest!!
After running my own site for a while, I have since given it up, deleted all RSS feeds except for iMore. It's the only coverage I need for my Apple related fix!
IMore...Great news and event coverage...and Apple...their products work and work well.
I love Apple because their products are the perfect blend of form and function. My entire family uses one device or more. I love imore because they are always on the cutting edge of information but don't talk down to the user. Imore gives honest reviews and even injects humor showing they have a solid understanding of their reader base.
Great job!
Apple and iMore three words Simply the Best!!!!!
I love apple's hardware design and the "solid" feel they have to them. I come to imore for all my my apple related news and trust their evaluations of new software and hardware. Thanks!
All started with ONE iPhone in our family 4 years ago - as result windows and android devices are sold - iMac, Macbook Air, iPads and IPhones rules our world now ;-) and iMore tells us how to use them best and iMore is always a good place to find the best tools and software for our hardware to enjoy them more!!! *****
iMore has the best Apple coverage in the biz! I read it every night! Would love the new iPad, excited to see what it has in store.
I really hope for a huge bump on the iPad mini! iMore delivers the best in Apple news and rumors that arent just rumors :-) Apple is a huge part of my life and i couldnt live without them!
Apple of my eye…
I dont know what's better, using apple products or following Apple news. Either way I'm addicted, and iMore is my dealer.
Looking forward to the new iPads announced today. Still the best tablets out there.
Why I love Apple? the same reason we're all here... It's the reason we check our twitter, RSS and Email for any (and every) tiny bit of news, gossip or leaked info on the newest developments, or the latest technologies. We're all technology lovers (fanboy's or whatever the label is this morning.) As technology lovers, there's a certain feeling you get when you use or even un-box a new Apple product. there's a sense of craftsmanship and commitment to the user experience that you get when you use an iDevice. It's what keeps me coming back time and time again.
The reason I love iMore is even more simple. Simply put, it's because you guys really get and understand exactly what I wrote above...
im poor and is so nice to win something never in my life won anything but abuse i would love to have an ipad maybe ill start to make money i so would love if u make me a winner call me 3472302724 my name is cindy
iMore is the go to for info about the most creative company on the planet.
You guys are literally the best apple news website there is!!!!!!! I love apple more than anything and there's no where better to hear the latest news first then right here!!!!!
I love Apple. I've had an iPod sine they first came out, as well as an iPad and 2 Apple TVs. They're fantastic products. And I really like iMore because Rene is a brilliant writer in my opinion.
love using my Apple products to go to iMore to learn more about apple products!
iMore + All Apple = Quality and enduring value! Rene is an outstanding journalist. He can be both technically competent and personable. He knows how to extract the best from his guests in his interviews. iMore is respectful of their readers and listeners. Please do more interviews and podcasts. Apple needs more insightful commentators who provide true clarity and understanding of where their brilliance truly shines and makes them one-of-a-kind kind of company. Apple's best days are truly ahead of us.
Love how you guys keep me up to dare in apple.
I need to replace my ipad 1!!!
I'm worried that by 2pm today, I'm going to have 6 things on my Apple wish list!
I'm also kinda mad, at this point, that I didn't bring my AppleTV to work to hook up to our 46" office TVs!
All that being said, 1pm ET can't get here soon enough!!!
I love apple products because they are essential in my quest to find Godzilla. (Yes, he exists)
After a long day of monster hunting, I visit iMore for the latest news. All of the best apple stuff, with none of the fluff.
Apple? Well my life runs on their products, so I'd better love them! And iMore always has thoughtful, speedy articles on the things I need to hear. Pretty good combo if you ask me.
i love apple products due to their design and performance which no other device out beat it. and i love iMore because it is the best place for reviews and to resolve other problems or issues for your apple products
I love Apple! I wouldn't have a job if it weren't for them. Because of my first MacBook in 2007, I got interested in technology. Now I help people with theirs! A new iPad Mini with Retina Display would be fantastic!
I love apple too and I need to have this cuz I need to
Make it up to my little brother because I locked his ipod up
My dream is to one day work for the Most Valuable Company in the World. An iPad would truly help me get through school and help me do work and research easier. iMore just fuels my urge to work for Apple more. Providing updates and all the latest news makes iMore one of my favorite websites. Please help me fulfill my dream, iMore!
I remember the nay-sayers when the original iPad came out. "It's a big iPhone", "It will flop", etc… how wrong they were. I remember thinking "Who wouldn't want this? It's a great idea and a fantastic device!". I love Apple for creating things that no one else would. And I love iMore for the best coverage on the net!
My family and I have been apple users for the longest time. We have the first generation iPad and are looking to get a new one. (It's about time!) It would mean so much to our family if we could get an iPad through my favorite apple news website! Thanks for always giving me the most reliable news ever, iMore!
I've never owned an iPad (though it's been recurring on my wish list since iPad 1) but I'm sure I know everything teensy weensy detail and info there is to know about the it because of iMore. Let's make this wish come true finally!
Apple products have an unmistakable quality about them inside and out physically, and the user experience on any of their devices is as close to perfect as anybody is ever going to get, they just feel so good in your hands. iMore keeps me in the know about them, the good and the bad with interesting, well thought and easily read articles, it's one of my top gadget info sites.
I love apple so much I sleep with my iPhone and I pad in each arm every night.
Imore is the perfect site for apple product. I love apple because i just caught up with the apple's eco system from the time i got the 2nd gen Ipad. I'm planning to upgrade when the time it release. I just hope i can win this time though.
Apple products work for me. No complicated launchers, add-on's, etc. I'll never go back to Androi... Andr... can't say the name! iMore rocks, too! Excellent tips and product reviews.
I've been an Ipad user for some years now, however even though it's has an ease of use, lots of apps basically made everyone............., I'd like Apple executives to realize that you don't have to come out with one a year, I appreciate what your doing but every two years....ok it makes since update, renovate or make look more cool with apps ext... That's really it love the ipad, please keep up the good work. Even my mom and dad live using it......and my dad doesn't even embrace Technology.
Love Apple because they're intentional...Everyone else frantically follows trends.
iMore? C'mon, I'm here, aren't I?
Thanks for the great content, iMore Team!
Apple makes great products and iMore does a great job of reporting on those products!!
You keep asking us to tell you how much we love Apple and YOU!? Man, you guys are really hard up for wanting some compliments. Seriously though, can't say enough how much I've enjoyed all the great news/info/insights from iMore. Easily my best resource for Apple stuff. Oh yeah, and Apple's pretty cool too.
love Apple ..the smoothest camera app yet for grabbing picks of the kiddos
IMore keeps me updated
If Apple was a farm then imore would be a like a Remote Drone collecting intel. on what was growing on this farm.
Apple products let me design and do what I love easily and comfortably. iMore has been a great new news resource for me. Great columns and great reviews.
I have been a Windows techi for over 20 years and was never more surprised as to how much I was drawn into the light of Apple via the iPhone 3GS and a couple years later, the iPad wifi/3G. Yes the iPhone was my gateway drug into the Apple society, but it was the iPad that opened my eyes to all the possibilities that is Apple. Subsequent tablets from the lesser competitors and quality, ease of use and reliability won every time.
IMore has become my go to source for everything Apple. I rely on them to keep me up to date with straight forward, honest reporting without all the fluff sites like this is known for. Keep up the good work. Love you guys!!
I want the new Ipad Mini so I can upgrade my ipad 2.
So me.......pick me.........me.........pick me.....
And I LOOOOOOOOOVE Imore
Apple has the finest and most attractive hardware, and the most simplistic, user-friendly UI on all of their devices......and they "just work". That's why I have deep affection for Apple. Couple that with blog with the best Apple info in the industry, and we have a match made in tech heaven.
iMore gives the best advice for anything Apple related. Apple constantly delivers the best devices that just work. It's the perfect combo!
Can't wait to see what's announced!!
I have loved Apple and iMore (before it was even iMore!) for the great products and the great reporting on those products!
I love iMore because of Rene, easily one of the best tech writers out there.
An Apple a day, keeps iMore and me, as happy as can be. :0)
I love apple for its intuit & quality products and iMore for providing quality articles to read on those devices.
Good Luck!

I love Apple's refusal to compromise on quality. Just like the guy/girl who's picking the winner of this contest refuses to compromise on being amazing. Also.
There is nothing better than Apple, except iMore ;)
Apple keeps leading the way on phones and tablets. Apple leads, they don't follow like the others. They're the creator of the smartphone revolution.

Using apple products is now a part of me and is ultimately a way of life for my friends and I. I remember when I had just got my first iPod touch some years ago, that was when I knew I had found a good companion. At the time, so many people around me had not got any apple device, so I had to look for reasons to convince them why they should buy an Apple product, I stumbled on the iMore site and I faithfully followed every post and found more and more reasons to choose to use an apple product over any other one. Today, everyone of my friends has at least an iPhone and now I have got a Macbook Air, iPad and an iPhone. My life revolves around all these devices and they perform their individual duties. I've been looking forward to getting the iPad5 right from the first time I saw it's leaks and following every update on its anticipated features on iMore has made the cravings more. I would be really lucky to win it.Thanks for the opportunity.
iMore remains my go to source for the best Apple iOS news.
I'll do just about anything for free stuff, but really I do love Apple and of course iMore cause they do the best job in covering the things I love.
I love all technology but there's no disputing who is king of the tablet! Pick me!
There is nowhere better for Apple news and analysis than iMore, love them both!
I love iMore! It's the number one site I go to when I wanna read up about anything going on with Apple. Would love them even more if they helped me out with my new iPad!

I Love Apple products because they Just Work, they look elegant, and feel amazing, I love iMore because they will give me a gift certificate to feed my Apple addiction.
Hey Pink2, I totally agree with your comment! Good luck!
IPhone and I pads aren't just devices they are life companions. They are how I see my family with I message how I show my coworkers awesome photos of my trip air drop and how I keep up to date with the world in new and Apple events apple. Com and I more. It's all a circle of people and products that keep my life going
Apple products just work amazingly without having to tweak or mess around with them and iMore provides the best coverage of anything and everything Apple (as well as some of the best contests)
I love Apple and it's products, and I love how iMore makes great articles about them! I read you every day guys!

Apple makes the highest quality consumer electronics. iMore provides the best coverage and analysis of Apple and doesn't get bogged down with junk put out by other companies. iMore and Apple have a wonderful marriage.
iMore, the ONLY site that knows the score! I'd love to surf the web with an iPad from iMore!

I just want my kids to fit in. All of their friends have their own iPad. Help me be a cool dad again!
I would not love Apple if it wasn't for imore. Imore your site is the best. You give all the updated information and leaks that helps me use my apple products to the full. Apple has the best devices. Thank you both!!!!
I love Apple and iMore so much that I made a companion pillow representation. I go everywhere and do everything with it. (Yes, everything.) You've probably seen me in r/wtf.

New Maumee practice provides cosmetic laser servicesWritten by Brigitta Burks | News Editor | firstname.lastname@example.com
A local doctor and his wife, also a nurse, opened Luxe Laser Vein & Body Center in Maumee last month. Their practice offers a variety of cosmetic treatments, many using advanced laser technology.
"[The practice is] going very well. We've had a lot of patients come in," said the practice physician Dr. Wade Banker. "We're a little busier than I thought we would be at this point."
"Our names are getting out there; the things we are striving for are happening," said Nicole Banker, who is a nurse at the practice in addition to being Wade's wife.
The couple runs the center, which hosted a grand opening on April 17, at 1500 Holland Road, Maumee. The center also employs Jennifer Bugbee, an aesthetician specializing in microdermabrasion, facials and peels.
Wade said that the practice's lasers come from the laser manufacturing and developing company Cynosure. Wade said five lasers offered at his practice are among the most advanced available.
"Nobody in Northwest Ohio has this lineup of the latest generation," Wade said. "There may be many great physicians out there doing these procedures, but you're only as good as your best laser. There is no way around it."
Luxe Laser offers several services, including tattoo and hair removal, facials, chemical peels and botox treatments. The practice's most popular service so far has been treatment of spider and varicose veins, Nicole said.
These treatments and others can help improve a patient's level of confidence, she added.
"Most of my patients say, 'I'm really not a vain person," Nicole said. "They just wanted these little improvements that give them self esteem. These women come in and say, 'I just wanted to wear shorts in the summer.'"
The procedure isn't just cosmetic since spider and varicose veins can cause achiness or a heavy feeling, Nicole added.
Smartlipo and CoolSculpting, both fat removal services, are also gaining in popularity at the practice, the Bankers said.
Smartlipo is minimally invasive and can remove up to 75-80 percent of fat in the desired area, Wade said.
"It's immediate results and it's painless, but it does require a little numbing of the skin," he said. "[The fat is removed] through a tiny little hold … and then we melt the fat, and then we literally just suck it out."
CoolSculpting, which uses a device to suck and then freeze fat, is noninvasive and can remove about 30 percent of fat in the desired area, Wade said. Results aren't as immediate as with Smartlipo and can take up to 8 weeks to appear, he added.
Luxe Laser also offers SmartSkin laser treatment for skin resurfacing. This laser treatment works to remove wrinkles, fine lines, age spots and large pores, Wade said.
"It's basically a face lift without getting a face lift at a third of the price or less," he said.
Wade said he makes sure to talk clients through procedures and put them at ease if they're nervous about laser procedures.
"I'm here. I call my patients after work; I talk to them in the evenings. I really take the time," he said.
The couple also plans to use their practice to give back to the community. The practice works with the New Beginnings program, which offers free radiation mark/tattoo removal to people who have had cancer.
Wade said he is passionate about working with people who have had cancer.
"Personally I've lost family members to cancer and I've treated [oncology patients] in my practice for the last 15 years," he said. "I don't think [the patients] want to look at the radiation marks as a reminder so this can help."
Wade said that it took the Bankers a little more than a year to open Luxe Laser. Wade, a Cincinnati-area native, first came to Toledo to attend the Medical University of Ohio before taking jobs in Cleveland and Mississippi. He later returned to Toledo to work for Mercy until he decided he wanted to go out on his own.
Wade met Nicole, then an emergency room nurse, at Mercy St. Anne Hospital. The two married in 2011.
"My wife and I work really well together. … It's really become like a nice family-owned-and-operated place and we're just all about making people happier," he said.
