My foxtrotter gelding has a few sore spots around his ears,so I bought this and it done everything i needed it to! The padding is very nice and my horse LOVES it and I have had it for 6 to 7 months and it is still brand new .I would totally buy another one! 5 stars!
I absolutely LOVE these halters! They are an EXCELLENT quality for the money...you just can't go wrong with these! The nice padding on the underside makes it nice and comfortable for the horses as well. Strongly recommended!
"top of the line"
This is the first and last halter i have bought for one of my horses. It was purchased 11 years ago. If it is not on the horse it is hanging at the fence ready for use and has always been exposed to the elements. Cant say anything but god things about this halter.
"Best ever lead halter"
I have used these padded halters for over 10 years, the average life span is 3 to 5 years.Good for leading bathing even ponying young horses.Never leaves marks but eventually the rubber siding wears out with use. The snaps are sound working quality.GREAT for the $
"Good quality for the price"
After a year and a half the throat snap broke, I now use it as a grooming halter. Good if you need to leave it on a horse, the padding does not rub the hair off and my horse never even had a line from it. Have already bought the replacement.

Hardcore is fun but not invasion deaths like these... I did hear though invasion is getting nerfs.

Steam (CS:S, L4D2, TF2) - Powster
Invasion needs nerf, corrupted areas past Normal difficulty need nerfs, they are stupid hard. That's why I didn't even get to level 10 last night. Met The Duchess in Upper Submerged Pass and she spawns 3-4 massive zombies with insane HP while she has so much HP of her own that you would think she is like 15 levels above you. Not mention her model is stupid large along with the big zombies and those small spawnlings or whatever, you get trapped in that area just like that, in a matter of seconds and there is nothing you can do about it.
I don't even want to imagine how stupid strong unique bosses other areas have.
EDIT: I just want to add that I was playing Marauder, lvl 8, all HP, armor and life regen nodes. I had lvl 5 two handed rare sword which gave me accuracy, attack speed, elemental damage. I had found and equipped the following items
and I still died to Duchess with 2 trips back to camp until I ran out of portal scrolls. Yes, not many of those stats actually benefit me in that moment but the ones that did, still gave me a huge boost for the level I was at that time.

text: Farmers in the Castle Valley area are beginning to make their first cut of alfalfa this year. The wet cycles with warm weather in between has helped the crops to grow. But even without more rain there will be enough irrigation water this year to bring in some good yields. However, should the wet weather continue, that could cause some problems in the area of drying out the hay for baling.

Industry analysts say our record high gas prices are likely to climb even higher and everyone is either driving around in circles to find the lowest price or just griping about them. But, according to experts, extra miles can be squeezed out of every fill-up if drivers followed a few simple rules.
"The way to save money is in every drivers' hands, and sometimes feet," said Ray Palermo, director of public relations for national auto insurer, Response Insurance. "Everything comes down to two basic categories of advice," explained Palermo, "car care and driving habits." He offered drivers a few pieces of advice.
Lighten the car's load by removing all unnecessary items from the trunk, such as the bag of sand and shovel from the winter. Every 200 pounds of weight reduces gas efficiency by one mile per gallon. If you have to carry a lot of baggage, avoid using a roof-top container, which will increase the air drag. If you drive a pick-up truck, the open bed will have the same impact, so put a cover on it.
Incorrectly inflated tires decrease fuel efficiency. Check vehicle and tire manufacturer for proper inflation.
Don't turn on the air conditioner as a first response to the heat. Start your drive off with the windows open to exhaust the hot air out of the rear windows and then put on the A/C if needed. This will also enable the air conditioning to work faster and more efficiently when turned on.
Smooth out your driving style by avoiding "jack rabbit" starts and sharp braking. Both expend gas and can present a hazard for others on the road.
It's estimated that every mile per hour driven above 55 mph costs 1 percent in fuel economy. So, slowing down can be both safe and fuel-efficient. Maintaining a constant speed also maximizes your car's performance. If road conditions permit, use your car's cruise control.
Traveling at a fast speed in a low gear wastes gas.
Accelerate a little as you approach a hill, rather than hitting the gas and switching gears once on the incline.

I like it because it takes up less space than big picture albums.I take a lot of pictures and I had no where to put them all. This fotoshow works great, and does not take up that much space for the amount of pictures you can store.

Perfect for Photos
By Clair
from Boulder, CO
The Fotoshow is not only a perfect place to store photos, but they are easy to access and look at. We have had many hours of family time just sitting with the Fotoshow boxes and looking at photos. They are easy to use -- just waiting for photos to be put in them. You don't have to wait until you have time to "do the album." And they are more versatile because you can use the photos and then put them back without disturbing anything. The negatives or photo information can be stored in the handy drawer under the photos. I am so grateful that you have kept the Fotoshow available for many years.

The Magic of Recluceby L. E. Modesitt
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
With The Magic of Recluce, L.E. Modesitt made his impressive hardcover debut, breaking out in wide scope and grand scale with a novel in the great tradition of the war between good and evil in a wonderful fantasy world. Modesitt had been producing fast-paced, slickly-written novels of SF adventure, often compared to the work of Keith Laumer and Gordon R. Dickson. Then, in his biggest and best book yet, he broadened his canvas and turned to fantasy and magic, stepping immediately into the front rank of contemporary fantasy writers.
The Magic of Recluce is a carefully-plotted fantasy novel of character about the growth and education of a young magician. In it, Modesitt confronts real moral issues with gripping force, builds atmosphere slowly and convincingly and gives his central character, Lerris, real intellectual challenges. This is the kind of highly-rationalized fantasy that Poul Anderson and Gordon R. Dickson write when they write fantasy, colorful and detailed.
He is given the standard two options: permanent exile from Recluce or the dangergeld, a complex, rule-laden wanderjahr in the lands beyond Recluce with the aim of learning how the world works and what his place in it might be. Many do not survive. He chooses dangergeld.
Though magic is rarely discussed openly in Recluce, it becomes clear, when Lerris is sent into intensive training for his quest, that he has a natural talent for it during his weapons lessons. And he will need magic in the lands beyond, where the power of the Chaos Wizards reigns unchecked. He must learn to use his powers in an orderly way or fall prey to Chaos.
Lerris may resent order, but he has no difficulty choosing good over evil. As he begins his lonely journey, he falls into the company of a gray magician, once of Recluce, who tutors him in the use of magic and shows him some of the devastation caused by the Chaos Wizards in the great wars between Chaos and Order of past times.
Lerris pursues a quest for knowledge and power that leads him across strange lands, through the ghostly ruins of the old capitol of Chaos, down the white roads of the Chaos Wizards to a final battle with the archenemy of Order, discovering in the end true control of magic, true love, and the beginning of true wisdom. An epic adventure, The Magic of Recluce0, is a triumph of fantasy.
The Magic of Recluce is the first book of the saga of Recluce.
An epic adventure world that has so far spanned fifteen novels and has run for twenty years was launched in The Magic of Recluce, a triumph of fantasy. Young Lerris is dissatisfied with his life and trade, and yearns to find a place in the world better suited to his skills and temperament. But in Recluce a change in circumstances means taking one of two options: permanent exile from Recluce or the dangergeld, a complex, rule-laden wanderjahr in the lands beyond Recluce, with the aim of learning how the world works and what his place in it might be. Many do not survive. Lerris chooses dangergeld.
When Lerris is sent into intensive training for his quest, it soon becomes clear that he has a natural talent for magic. And he will need magic in the lands beyond, where the power of the Chaos Wizards reigns unchecked. Though it goes against all of his instincts, Lerris must learn to use his powers in an orderly way before his wanderjahr, or fall prey to Chaos.
This twentieth anniversary edition will feature an all-new cover and include the Recluce map, plus a new foreword from the author.
Lerris, the young magician, realizes the full potential of his skills when he engages in a conflict with the great Chaos wizard, Antonin. In the process, he becomes the greatest of all magicians. Gordon R. Dickson calls it, "A big, exciting novel of the battle between good and evil, and the path between".
About the Author
L. E. Modesitt, Jr., is the author of the popular fantasies of the Recluce, Spellsinger and Corean series as well as numerous science fiction novels. He lives with his wife, a lyric soprano, in Cedar City, Utah.

SICILY (NBC) - Sicily's Mount Etna has been putting on quite a show for spectators who dare get close enough to see.
Europe's only active volcano sent streams of red hot lava and ash shooting into the sky this weekend.
The latest eruption did not have any affect on air travel in the area. Experts also said nearby residents were not in danger, but the ash left quite a mess on cars and on streets.
Eruptions are common at Etna but rarely cause damage.

Construction of the USO's new Warrior and Family Center in Fort Belvoir, Va., is progressing quickly and the USO wanted to give our tremendous supporters and followers a sneak peek at how the project is coming together.
The center's "topping out" ceremony -- signaling that the project had reached the halfway point -- occurred last June and a completion date is January 2013. Director of Logistics and Facilities Jonathan Matthews shares his thoughts.
The metal roof has been finished and the brick façade has been finished so let's head inside.
"Both these centers will do so much more than deliver on the USO's bread-and-butter promise of 'providing a home away from home'; they will reinforce the sterling work the military medical professionals are doing to start the wounded, ill and injured on their next stage in life with a positive outlook," Matthews said.
Drywall work has begun and should be completed by mid-October. That will then key the start for painting, which should be finished by the end of November.
The landscaping process has started with 50 percent of the site leveled off and ready for treatment with the planting process set to begin on Oct. 1.
Soon after the structure is completed, USO Metro will begin training volunteers and staff inside the center and prepping the environs for the January opening.
"The Warrior and Family Centers will lift the spirits of troops and families through therapeutic and morale building programs, while paying much deserved attention to the family members and professional caregivers of the wounded," Matthews said.

Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Alex Cross faces the deadliest psychopath of them all — his wife's killer!
Alex Cross was a rising star in the Washington, DC, Police Department when an unknown shooter gunned down his wife, Maria, in front of him. The killer was never found, and the case turned cold, filed among the unsolved drive-bys in D.C.'s rough neighborhoods.
Years later, still haunted by his wife's death, Cross is making a bold move in his life. Now a free agent from the police and the FBI, he's set up practice as a psychologist once again. His life with Nana Mama, Damon, Jannie, and little Alex is finally getting in order. He even has a chance at a new love.
Then Cross's former partner, John Sampson, calls in a favor. He is tracking a serial rapist in Georgetown, one whose brutal modus operandi recalls a case Sampson and Cross worked together years earlier. When the case reveals a connection to Maria's death, Cross latches on for the most urgent and terrifying ride of his life.
From the man USA Today has called the "master of the genre," Cross is the high-velocity thriller James Patterson and Alex Cross's fans have waited years to read — and the pinnacle of the bestselling detective series of the past two decades.
"Forensic psychologist Alex Cross's storied career in private practice, with the FBI and as a Washington, D.C., cop has brought him into contact with all kinds of seriously disturbed killers, but his 12th outing from bestseller Patterson (after 2005's Mary, Mary) may be the ultimate in lunatic deadliness. Beginning with a flashback to the murder of Cross's wife, Maria, Patterson quickly introduces Michael Sullivan (aka the Butcher of Sligo). What follows is a frenetically paced series of brutal rapes and killings by Sullivan, once employed by the mob as a freelancer and now at war with them. Cross juggles being a single parent and being involved in the dangerous game of tracking serial killers until he finally decides to give it up for his family. Needless to say, he's drawn back into the game when it promises a chance of finding Maria's killer. Cross's competence and vulnerability make a stark contrast with Sullivan's sadistic mutilations and psychological manipulations of his victims. Fans know that Cross will survive, but at what cost?" Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"Even as the story whips by with incredible speed, Patterson manages to pack it full of suspense, emotion, and a resolution that, while perfectly satisfying, carries the author's trademark teaser hinting at the 'more' that surely will come." Booklist
"This series is becoming tired, and Patterson seems to be trying to compensate by making each villain successively more repulsive....The best Patterson books, like Jack and Jill, are intricate and substantial, not just gore draped over a thin plot." Library Journal
"Although Patterson keeps the pot boiling with one darn felony after another, nothing really happens....The biggest disappointment, though, is an ending that makes you realize you should have skipped this installment and waited for the sequel." Kirkus Reviews
From the man USA Today calls the "master of the genre," Cross is the pinnacle of the bestselling detective series of the past two decades — a high-velocity thriller fans have waited years to read, in which Alex Cross at last has the chance to capture the psychopath who murdered his wife, Maria. Available in a tall Premium Edition.

LEWISTON, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- The Lewiston Auburn area was expected to be one of the areas with the most snow acculumation Thursday, but what started as snow turned out to be mostly slush for the Twin Cities.
"This is just a pain," said David Jones, Director of Lewiston Public Works.
"During a blizzard, you can stay in the truck pretty much and just plow and keep the stuff going," said Jones. "A lot of this stuff is just hand work and getting out in the wet mess."
The main roads were clear from slush by mid-morning, but the clean up was just beginning in some Lewiston neighborhoods.
"It's a very wet heavy snow and it's melting," said Richard Bannister, as he used his snowblower to clear his Lewiston driveway.
He said he also had plans to clean the snow off of his roof, following the advice from Maine Emergency Management Agency officials.
MEMA has advised people to clear roofs, vents, and outside heating oil tanks after this storm that brought heavy snow.
In Lewiston, the Director of Public Works is asking people to clear slush away from catch basins on the streets so the water can drain properly on the roads.
"This is a sloppy mess and it's tough to get rid of," said Jones.

"(1) Organ procurement organizations play an important role in the effort to increase organ donation in the United States.

"(3) The General Accounting Office [now Government Accountability Office], the Institute of Medicine, and the Harvard School of Public Health have identified substantial limitations in the organ procurement organization certification and recertification process and have recommended changes in that process.
"(4) The limitations in the recertification process include:
"(A) An exclusive reliance on population-based measures of performance that do not account for the potential in the population for organ donation and do not permit consideration of other outcome and process standards that would more accurately reflect the relative capability and performance of each organ procurement organization.
"(B) A lack of due process to appeal to the Secretary of Health and Human Services for recertification on either substantive or procedural grounds.
"(5) The Secretary of Health and Human Services has the authority under section 1138(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1320b–8 (b)(1)(A)(i)) to extend the period for recertification of an organ procurement organization from 2 to 4 years on the basis of its past practices in order to avoid the inappropriate disruption of the nation's organ system.
"(6) The Secretary of Health and Human Services can use the extended period described in paragraph (5) for recertification of all organ procurement organizations to—
"(A) develop improved performance measures that would reflect organ donor potential and interim outcomes, and to test these measures to ensure that they accurately measure performance differences among the organ procurement organizations; and
"(B) improve the overall certification process by incorporating process as well as outcome performance measures, and developing equitable processes for appeals."

In response to nyjoseph's comment:
In response to coolade2's comment:
this is abit confusing... NYjoseph we need a ruling from the commish.
based on the coin flip.... 7-8 looks like bengals, niners, or chiefs....?
6 teams have been taken by the time 56redsox and irishfanatic get a chance to pick.
I then put their lists side by side.
I go down both lists until I find a team that hasn't been chosen.
56redsox had the Bengals (unchosen) at #2. If irishfanatic had the Bengals at #2 I would have flipped a coin. He didn't so I continued down his list until I found the first unchosen team - the 49ers.
Does that make sense?

The Carbon High Lady Dino's basketball team welcomed the Cottonwood Colts to town Jan. 4. The welcome was short lived as the Dinos defeated the Colts 67-38 in a non-region competition.
The inhospitable Lady Dinos seemed to want to make up for losing last week to Wasatch and showed that they have the ability to bounce back after a tough game.
Reportedly, in the game against the Wasps much of the team had the flu, but none of that was evident in this contest as they destroyed the Lady Colts at every turn.
The victory boosts the Dino team to 10-2 for the season while the struggling Colts loss drops them to 2-9.
The Dinos played well on both ends of the ball against Cottonwood. The excellent ball handling found the Lady Dinos leading at the half 39-20.
After returning to the court after halftime, the Colts began to play strong offense. The Dino's allowed the Colt's to score 11 points in the third, however the fourth quarter saw the Dinos step up their defensive game.
The Colts were allowed only seven total points in the fourth quarter while the Dinos scored 13, thus Carbon High finished the game 31 points ahead of Cottonwood.
Leading scorer for the Dinos was Chelsey Warburton, who finished with 18 points, six of these points came from three point field goals.
Following Warburton in scoring was teammate and sister Cassie Warburton who scored 11 points, while Carbon post player Stephanie Cox completed 10 points against the Colts.
The Dino's key players all scored for the team, while playing solid defense which lead to several turnovers by the Colts.
Carbon now looks forward to beginning the league season Jan. 10 against Delta at Carbon High at 7p.m.
The Lady Dinos plan to welcome the Delta team just as they did Cottonwood, with a defeat and a long bus ride home after the game.

Kelly, a resident of Natchitoches, earned her degree through the Center for Adult Learning in Louisiana (CALL) Program.
"I first went to college 10 years ago, but didn't take it seriously," said Kelly, who is an Administrative Coordinator 3 and Veterans Affairs certifying official at Northwestern State. Kelly took nine hours a semester, all of them online except for math classes. This allowed her to do her classwork at night and on weekends. She earned her associate degree in 2010. Kelly plans to enter Northwestern State's master's program in student affairs in higher education.
Kelly works in the Northwestern State's Office of the Registrar, helping veterans and active duty personnel sign up for classes and receive all benefits they are eligible to receive. In addition to her work at NSU, Kelly is a volunteer with CASA, the Court Appointed Special Advocate Association, a nonprofit network supporting and promoting court appointed volunteer advocacy for abused and neglected children.
The CALL program is designed for the adult student to adapt to specific interests, backgrounds, time limitations and ultimate career goals. It is especially appropriate for mature adults with a clear focus and desire to pursue a distinct course of study based upon educational and work experiences.
The CALL degree programs may be completed online under the "fast- track" method or in a regular semester format. CALL fast track courses are offered in four and eight-week sessions which allow the student to focus on one or two courses at a time.
Degree credit may be earned through regular and accelerated online courses taken with Northwestern State; transfer credit; challenge tests; CLEP tests; military credit; Prior Learning Assessment (life, work, or volunteer experience determined to be college level learning); credit from other training or educational pursuits and other related activities.
Over the past five years, more than 400 students have earned degrees at Northwestern State through CALL.

Multiple counts of child sexual abuse were filed Wednesday in Seventh District Court against a Price couple. Additional charges are expected to be filed against a third person. Price police allege that about a half dozen children, aged 2 to 15 at the time of the offenses, were victimized over a period of about three years. The victims were male and female.
Deputy County Attorney Jeremy Humes filed the charges with the court.
Amanda Nicole Romano, 26, was charged with five counts of object rape of a child, five counts of sodomy upon a child, one count of child abuse, and four counts of aggravated sexual abuse of a child.
Timothy Lee Romano, 25, faces two counts of aggravated sexual abuse of a child.
All counts except for the child abuse charge against Amanda Romano are first-degree felonies. The child abuse count is a class A misdemeanor. Both were arrested and booked into Carbon County Jail Nov. 9.
A third person, Tyler Barney, was arrested Nov. 10 but has not yet been formally charged.
Price Police Capt. Bill Barnes said Thursday that the charges stemmed from an investigation by Detective Ed Malmgren. Malmgren had been contacted in late October by investigators from the state Division of Child and Family Services, who had been tipped off by a citizen.
"In 28-and-a-half years of police work, this is as troubling as anything I've seen," Barnes said. Malmgren said he was equally shaken by the findings of his investigation.

With high expectations as a top seed in the state tournament, the Helper American Legion baseball team wasted no time in getting off to a fast start with a 13-1 win over host Logan on Saturday evening.
Helper took an early 4-0 lead in the first inning and Brandon Oliver pitched a complete game keeping the Logan offense at bay in the five inning mercy rule win.
Behind strong pitching and defense, the Helper offense added runs in every inning including a four-run top of the fourth inning which was highlighted by a Jaren McCourt two-run home run over the center field wall that put Helper up 7-1.
Logan loaded the bases in the bottom of the second with one out, but Oliver pitched out of the jam allowing one run to score on an RBI ground out. Oliver seemed to get stronger as the game went on as he struck out two Logan batters in the fifth inning to collect the victory for Helper.
With the win, Helper advances to face the winner of Weber/West on Monday afternoon at 4 p.m. at Providence High School.
See Tuesday's edition of the Sun Advocate for more information and pictures of Helper's win over Logan.

CANTON When Catherine E. Mathews joined the Peace Corps fresh out of college, she was excited to travel halfway around the world to work in a poor, rural South Korean village.
That was more than 30 years ago.
Next week, Ms. Mathews is getting a chance to travel back to the Asian country where she still has many friends and fond memories.
It was a peaceful, gentle place, Ms. Mathews recollected. Everyone worked together and shared. I liked the community aspect of it. Im excited about going back.
After her three-year Peace Corps stint ended, Ms. Mathews returned to Korea, where she worked for about decade at various jobs. Her work included counseling soldiers serving with the U.S. Army who were suffering problems such as post-traumatic stress disorder. She also taught English and worked for the U.S. Embassy.
Her years in Korea turned out to be a life-changing experience that cemented her desire to help others. Her parents were first-generation immigrants to the United States, coming from Germany and Indonesia.
Ms. Mathews is director of the Canton Church & Community Program, an agency at 7 Main St. that provides food, clothing and other emergency assistance for those in need.
Earlier this summer, she was contacted by the South Korean government, which has organized reunions for former Peace Corps volunteers.
They want to show us how far theyve advanced in the rural areas, partly because of the contributions of the Peace Corps volunteers, Ms. Mathews said.
During her first visit in the 1970s, people in poor rural areas lived in thatched-roof houses and had little money. There were mostly dirt roads.
They want to show us the highways and the other changes, Ms. Mathews said.
The Korean government is paying for her airfare and hotel stay during the 10-day trip, which begins Wednesday with a flight from Syracuse to Detroit and then to Seoul.
During her stay, Ms. Mathews will get to visit Nangsan, the village in Chola Bukto Province where she spent three years living with a single mother and her daughter in a two-room house without electricity or running water.
It was known as the rice basket area, she said. There wasnt a lot of money. They were recuperating from the war and most of the economy was going to the military.
Although her host mother has died, Ms. Mathews will spend time with her Korean sister, Choi Young Soon, who is a retired nurse.
Ms. Mathews helped fund her sisters nursing education. When she returns this time, shed like to find another project to help fund and hopes Choi Young Soon will join her.
That way the two of us are giving something back, she said.
Ms. Mathews also is looking forward to once again eating authentic Korean food such as blowfish soup. Another favorite is squid with green onions and hot peppers.
Its a like a stir fry, she said.

Harvey Milk
Associated Press
Harvey Milk was a city supervisor of a San Francisco and the first openly gay officer in the city's history.
He, along with San Francisco mayor George Moscone, was shot and killed on Nov. 27, 1978 by Dan White, a former supervisor who had resigned his seat and who became enraged when the mayor would not reappoint him.
Mr. Milk was elected in November 1977 to the district that represented Haight-Ashbury and upper Market Street areas where much of San Francisco's gay population was centered.
Mr. Milk had campaigned unsuccessfully for the supervisor position in 1973 and 1975 before winning two years later with 30 percent of the vote over 16 candidates.
Born in New York City, Mr. Milk and received a bachelor's degree in 1951 from from Albany State College for Teachers. He had worked as a financial analyst in New York City before moving to San Francisco in 1969.
Though open about his sexual preference from the start, Mr. Milk campaigned on a broad platform that included expanded childcare facilities, low-rent housing and a civilian police-review board, rather than primarily on the issue of homosexual rights. However, he had been instrumental in passing a homosexual rights ordinance that was considered the most stringent in the nation at that time.
Mr. White was charged with murder, but convicted of the lesser charge of voluntary manslaughter, leading to chaos and riots throughout the city.
