Rated 4.2 out of 5 by 255 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Designchick Gorgeous I bought the leopard print pony hair pumps. These shoes are beautiful in person. There is just enough of an ombré effect to make the print look natural and the shoes look much more expensive than they are. They are also very comfortable for a heel. They go with everything. I'm happy with my purchase! October 6, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by AndieNicci Perfect Very comfortable and stylish. I can wear these all day without any pain. September 29, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by CuteShoes37 Perfect pump for work that goes with everything! Great for work or out to dinner, this classic black pump works with everything. It fit nicely, perhaps a little snug, on day one, but after just a little wear it feels like it was made for my foot. It's my go-to, don't-worry shoe for mornings when I need to run to work and want a shoe that will look great and feel great as the day wears on. I started with a pair in black, but bought a second pair in the nude color and couldn't be happier :-) August 16, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by DrStef Lovely This is a very sharp looking shoe. The fabric is nice to the touch. Love them!!!! August 11, 2015

Jeff Rohloff, an owner/operator truck driver, adjusts the diesel pump handle to fill the tank for his refrigerated trailer while at the Flying J truck stop on North Kings Highway at Orange Avenue in Fort Pierce. Rohloff spent $650.01 to fill the truck and $90.47 to fill the trailer tank at $4.13 per gallon for the "cash only" price. "A guy could go broke doing this," Rohloff said about the higher cost of fuel lately. "It's taken away a lot of your profit, it really bites into a lot of stuff. Just keep going day by day hanging in there. It's tough out here, but we're trying to make a go of it."
Gas prices are displayed at two busy stations along Okeechobee Road between Interstate 95 and Florida's Turnpike where prices are sometimes higher for highway travelers than for local residents in the middle of town.
Aaron Wintz, of Vero Beach, fills up with gas at the Steil gas station on U.S. 1 in 2011.
Alex Boerner/Treasure Coast Newspapers Steve Batt of Jensen Beach puts gas in his car at the ABS Gas & Go station at the intersection of Jensen Beach Boulevard and Skyline Drive in Jensen Beach. Batt said the high gas prices will definitely affect his traveling. He was planning to drive to Michigan for his daughter's graduation, but now will fly because it is less expensive. "Definitely, the driving up north is out. I'm just not going to do it," said Batt.
Abdo Akl, owner of ABS Gas & Go, an independent gas station in Jensen Beach, checks a new email he received trying to sell him on a service allowing him to get live updates on oil prices. Akl believes speculators are one of the main reasons for high gas prices and large swings in the wholesale price of gasoline. "I feel bad for my customers. Some of them come in with change in their pockets for a gallon of gas. People just can't afford it," he said. He is just trying to break even on his gas sales. "It's hard, and it's just going to get harder, not just on the business, but on everybody," he added.

Drawing and painting have always been a part of my life, but it wasn�t until my sophomore year in college that I was encouraged to pursue an art career. Before I graduated, I was married and soon became a stay-at-home Mom. Once the children were in school, I went back to work but not in the art field � product sales, real estate sales, office management and campus ministry. Even though I created paintings and pen and ink drawings over the years, I was not able to pursue an art career full-time until recently. Now that I am a Grandmother, I have the freedom to paint and draw again! Among my commissioned commercial works are drawings of Historic Yellow Springs in Chester Springs, PA. used in their publications, brochures and...

A Glen Park man was jailed early Monday for allegedly choking a deputy sheriff who was interceding in a domestic fight, according to the Jefferson County Sheriffs Department.
John C. Carr, 37, of 618 Pine St., was charged with criminal obstruction of breathing or blood circulation, resisting arrest and harassment. Brownville Town Justice Richard M. Parker set bail at $250, sending him to the Metro-Jefferson Public Safety Building.
Deputy Jeffrey M. Froelich was sent about 2:50 a.m. to the Carr residence for a domestic fight, and was greeted outdoors by a woman who said she wanted to remove some of her belongings from the house and leave. The deputy said he went to the front door with the woman, who was not identified, and Mr. Carr attempted to close the door on them. After the deputy prevented the door from closing, Mr. Carr raised his right hand and placed it on my neck and throat area and applied a little pressure, Deputy Froelich said.
After Mr. Carr resisted being handcuffed, he was forced to the floor and was restrained.

tuition payment for a class at tcc Taken to Complete a Degree Program
1. Decide which degree to pursue and develop a timeline for completing that degree.
2. Decide which TCC class to take toward completing your chosen degree.
3. Decide on a funding source or combination of sources.
Three sources of funding for tuition are available to full-time classified staff:
4. Fill in and submit forms HR-78 and HR-79 (see instructions, below). If using Classified Funds, attach e-mail confirmation of funding to the forms. Use the timeline you developed in Step 1 to fill in the HR-79.
5. Wait for return of the approved, signed HR-78.
NOTE: If you begin taking the course before receiving the fully authorized request form, you are beginning that class without TCC's permission and without TCC's agreement to help pay your expenses.
NOTE: If you begin taking the course before receiving the fully authorized request form, you are beginning that class without TCC's permission and without TCC's agreement to help pay your expenses.
6. Register for the class.
7. Submit a copy of the approved HR-78 to the Business Office in lieu of payment of tuition
before the tuition payment deadline date. [locations and deadline date]
The Business Manager will complete the paperwork process with District Accounting without contacting you, unless you do not complete the course successfully.
8. You may submit to HR a copy of the tuition assistance request forms and a photocopy of your final grade printed from the SIS screens to be added to your personnel file. Keep a photocopy of your final grade for your files.
1. Tuition Reimbursement Fund ($500.00): Every campus (and District) has been allotted a fund (managed by the Business Manager on each campus or the Budget Manager for District) to assist employees with tuition expenses. During each new fiscal year (July 1 – June 30 of the following year), full-time employees are allowed to submit applications for up to $500.00 from this fund. All courses must be completed and the paperwork processed before the end of the fiscal year. After January, you might consider submitting a second request for additional funds; if there are fewer than normal requests made to date that year, your request may be awarded. This fund is for tuition assistance only, and for classified the course must be job-related or degree-related.
2. Individual Equity ($150.00): Every full-time classified staff member has been allotted $150.00 in financial support, called "individual equity", for professional development every fiscal year. To "be allotted" the money simply means that TCC will earmark that much for you to use each year if you want it. But the money belongs to the college and if you do not use it, the college will use it for something else. TCC reallocates that amount every July 1. You may use this fund toward tuition as well.
3. Classified Professional Development Fund ($1200.00): On July 1 of each year, a specified amount is reallocated into the fund. The Classified Association administers the fund in accordance with the Classified Professional Development Plan. A Classified Professional Development Fund Committee determines which requests for funding are awarded. Again, this money belongs to the college and whatever monies employees do not use will be used by the college for something else. According to the "rules", each staff member is limited to requesting a max of $800. Use it to pay whatever balance you may have left after using your tuition assistance or individual equity.
4. Other funding may be available through your department budget or an outside agency/organization willing to pay your expenses. Ask your supervisor or do some research on these. If you do find an outside funding source, you will have to do the paperwork for that agency's financial assistance to their satisfaction.

Transactions for the REST of usEven if a single idempotent interaction between one client and one RESTful Web service is reliable, it is not clear how to guarantee the property of atomicity when a client is interacting with multiple RESTful Web services. Even if HTTP has been designed to achieve reliable transfer of state between client and server, it is not clear how to use HTTP in order to let a client atomically transfer the state among two resources owned by different servers. There is considerable debate in the REST community whether or not transactions are needed, desirable and possible, but it is agreed that many are reluctant to adopt REST to build SOAs in enterprise settings due to the apparent lack of transactional support. This presentation's contribution to this debate is threefold:

'Mac Court can't be moved out of us'
EUGENE, Ore. - How do you say goodbye to an old friend, especially if that friend has been in the family for 84 years?
"That was a teammate of mine," said former University of Oregon basketball player and coach Bev Smith. "They can have us move out of Mac Court, but Mac Court can't be moved out of us."
New Year's Day marks the end of an era in Oregon sports history.
It's the last scheduled Pac-10 game at McArthur Court, Mac Court, The Pit - before the University of Oregon Ducks make the move to the new Matthew Knight Arena.
Smith's career as a player spanned 1978-1982.
She tried to describe the feeling of stepping out on the floor of Mac Court for the first time.
"It was pretty strong because it was the second or third year that women had been allowed to play at Mac Court," she said.

Students voted in 1925 to build a new arena, and they paid for it through fees and a bond issue.
The Webfoots used to play games at the old Eugene Armory, but as local author Joe Blakely said. "By 1926 the capacity was too small. They needed a bigger facility."
So Blakely said the school build Mac Court for the princely sum of $200,000.
It was named in honor of former UO student and "Father of UO Athletics" Clifton Naismith McArthur.
At first it was called the igloo because of its grey exterior and dome-like roof.
The rest, as they say, is history.
The Active 20-30 Club of Eugene has worked the security detail for 42 years in return for a fee from the university, raising thousands of dollars for charity.
That arrangement ends after the last game Jan. 1. "We're hopeful that this actually creates another
opportunity to team up with the U of O and move forward," said Jesse Howes, club president.
For Bev Smith, this goodbye is a sad one - but she hopes the pulse and the spirit of "The Pit" will live on.
"Because it's the people that have really made Mac Court and will continue to make Matthew Knight arena," she said.
A consultant's report said Mac Court could be used to house part of the UO School of Architecture, if the university wants to go that direction.
No decisions have been made on the future use, re-use or demolition of the building.

Opening Doors to College
Nov. 29, 2012
By Elizabeth Chapin
After graduating from high school, Kiara Cummings knew she wanted to go to college—she just wasn't exactly sure how it was going to happen. As a high school grad unsure about her future, Cummings attended a church service that she says opened the doors to college. Now a CSU Dominguez Hills student set to graduate this May, she says that her academic success all started that day at a Super Sunday service.
"Super Sunday"—a program to connect with and inform students and their families about what it takes to get into college—is a product of Chancellor Reed's creation of partnerships between the CSU and African American churches throughout California.
On Sundays each February, CSU leaders speak at these churches—sharing information about preparing for college, applying to a CSU, and financial aid. The events now take place in more than 100 churches, and this year reached more than 100,000 parishioners.
Reed has been a champion of the CSU's African American Initiative, which also includes educational and outreach events such as the Super Saturday College Fair and Summer Algebra institutes. They all work toward the goal of providing information and inspiration to increase the pool of African-American students attending a four-year university.
Cummings' story illustrates the successful outcome of the programs. She says the CSU's information and workshops available to her at Glory Christian Fellowship International Church helped her navigate the path to a bachelor's degree.
"Super Sunday helped lead me in the right direction and inspired me to go to college," Cummings said. "It made me realize it was attainable. For my future and my family's, I knew it was imperative to earn a bachelor's degree. The hard work would pay off."
Cummings always knew she wanted to work with kids. Now, with a degree in child development, she plans on opening her own daycare center.
Currently, she is combining that passion with her education and experience to give back to students at her church. In her spare time, she's mentoring and tutoring them so that they can succeed in their current schoolwork. Cummings says she knows that makes college a more attainable goal.
"I struggled in school too, just like some of them do," Cummings said. "I always tell them that anything is possible. If you put your mind to it and focus, you can achieve anything you want."

|WHS Baseball, A Team Of Destiny
|Written by Mike Kelly
|Sunday, 08 May 2011 08:26
If you want something bad enough, you have to work for it.The Watauga High baseball team did just that by capturing the Northwestern 3A/4A Conference tournament title Saturday night at MS Deal Stadium in Granite Falls. WHS wiped out an early 5-0 deficit and defeated South Caldwell 8-7 in eigth innings. Ethan Greene was named the Most Valuable Player.
Greene, in 7 1/3 innings of work, gave up no runs on four hits, he struck out seven and walked one in two relief appearances.
It was WHS's first tournanent title in 11 years. The last time the Pioneers (16-7) won the crown, they defeated Freedom in Morganton way back in the 2000 season.
"I am so happy for these players," said WHS coach Pete Hardee, who captured his third tournament championship and the only ones in school history. "They've worked so hard this year, but it just seemed like nothing would go right. We got down, but at the easter tournament (at East Rutherford), we kinda pulled it together, and we re-discovered ourselves."
It was a just reward for a team that began the season ranked ninth in Class 4A by ImpactBaseball.com. And the Pioneers lived up to that billing as they simply destroyed A.C. Reynolds and North Davidson by a combined score of 22-5 to start the season. But the Pioneers began to stumble in the month of April. A 10-5 loss to South Caldwell (April 4), and a 13-10 setback against Alexander Central (April 15) had the Pioneers second-guessing themselves.
And that loss to Alexander Central also dropped WHS into fourth place in the NW3A/4A Conference standings. Gone were any hopes of a regular-season championship, and possibly even making the state playoffs.
"It was just a matter of believing in ourselves," Greene said. "We just had to keep fighting. We showed it tonight by beating South Caldwell to win the tournament. This is a quality win. They've got a real good hitting team, and beating them is gratifying."
And the Pioneers pulled off their conference championship in dramatic fashion. They wiped out a 3-0 deficit and beat Alexander Central in the semifinals on Friday; they staged a huge rally to beat South Caldwell in the finals on Saturday.
"This is fun," said WHS junior Max Linville, who had a pair of doubles in Saturday's win. "And it's poetic justice. We have some much confidence right now. Nothing could stop us. We got on a roll, and we started driving people in. That win against Alexander Central really made us believe in ourselves."
Linville, Matt Proffitt, Clint Trivette and Josh Roberts were the late-inning heroes. They delivered the big blows against the Spartans that turned the game in WHS's favor. After going a combined 0-8 with three walks, that group finished up with six hits and drove in seven runs.
"These guys have regained the respect for this program," Hardee said. "That's one thing about this team, they're resilient. They've fought through the bad times and kept playing hard. Sure, I was worried when we fell behind like we did, but I told them 'this is a tournament and crazy things can happen.' We just kept working and put ourselves in a position to win the game, and they delievered."
The win snapped WHS's five-game losing streak in tournament championship games; it also snapped South Caldwell's (21-3) run of six consecutive tournament titles. As a matter of fact, the Spartans haven't lost a championship game since 2004, when they were victimized by Alexander Central in Boone. Ironically, Madison Bumgarner, now with the San Francisco Giants, was a freshman on that team.
"This is a marathon not a sprint," Hardee said. "There's going to be games where things aren't going to go your way. But this team held together. We were fortunate to win (Friday) against Alexander (Central), and gain the No.2 seed in the state playoffs. And tonight, we beat an excellent South Caldwell team right in their own back yard. And that's a huge accomplishment for this program and a big reward for our players."
And hopefully, the key to a successful run in the state playoffs.
The Pioneers will host a first-round state playoff game Friday night. The pairings will be announced Tuesday by the North Carolina High School Athletic Association. All state playoff games will be carried live on Oldies 100.7 FM.

Education, and the state responsibility for education, does not end when children become adults. Clearly, the bulk of interest and funding within education is devoted to the P-16 level. States, however, also provide education services for adults other than those in the pursuit of a postsecondary degree. It is this group adults without a high school diploma who often find themselves on the fringes of society working in low-paying jobs with little hope for advancement. To address the problems of this group, the U.S. Congress introduced and passed Title II of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998, addressing adult education and literacy.1 Under that act, and addressed similarly within the states, adult education is defined as:
"The term 'adult education' means services or instruction below the postsecondary level for individuals (A) who have attained 16 years of age, (B) who are not enrolled or required to be enrolled in secondary school under State law, and (C) who (1) lack sufficient mastery of basic educational skills to enable the individuals to function effectively in society, (2) do not have a secondary school diploma or its recognized equivalent, and have not achieved an equivalent level of education, or (3) are unable to speak, read, or write the English language." 2
Adult education, however, is not limited just to adult basic education or even state departments of education. Other typical programs that serve adult learners include General Educational Development (GED) test preparation, English education for speakers of foreign languages, high school completion, and some states even combine adult education services with Department of Human Services Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). Also, adults are increasingly receiving work and job training both from governmental agencies and the private sector. In fact, some states, such as South Dakota and Tennessee, have reorganized adult education within the department of labor within the past few years, recognizing the importance job training plays in educating these undereducated adults.
This Issue Site seeks to acquaint readers with state-level adult education programs and provide links to research and organizations focusing on adult education. Undereducated adults are a large, vital yet often neglected sector of the population; this Issue Site hopes to increase awareness to keep these adults off the fringes of society.

With 55 of the 70 Appellations d'Origine Contrôlées (Designations of Origin) in Aquitaine, the Gironde is almost completely covered with vines.
Undulating over the valleys of the Médoc, the Libourne region and the Entre-deux-Mers, vines are a familiar feature of the landscape, as are the carrelets* on the banks of the estuary, where anglers fish for shad, lamprey and white shrimp.
Saint-Estèphe, Saint-Emilion, Pomerol, Pessac-Léognan, Sauternes… These appellations are well-known, but are also the names of charming, magical villages…
The most famous is probably Saint-Emilion. This medieval citadel is listed as World Heritage by UNESCO, as is its wine area – a unique honour. Not to be missed.
The term "Château" in this region is specific, and stems from the fact that the big winemaking estates very often had their own castle. Margaux, Pichon Longueville, Yquem, Olivier – a historic monument dating back to the 12th century – and many, many more still embellish the Bordeaux region with their sumptuous architecture.
Other buildings well worth seeing are the wine cellars. Increasingly often open to the public, the estates take particular pride in these premises. The first of its type was the Cos d'Estournel. Built between 1810 and 1830, its pagoda roofs and the door from Zanzibar led to the owner being nicknamed the "Médoc Maharajah".
Nowadays, the château-owners do not hesitate to mix ancient buildings with modern architecture. In Pauillac, Château Lafite-Rothschild commissioned the Spanish architect Ricardo Bofill to build the new cellar. It has three arena-style levels, a depth of 10 metres, and capacity of 2,200 barrels!
All these sights can be visited by car, but also on horseback or simply on foot. There are plenty of walking trails, guidebooks and service providers to help you. You can even visit the Saint-Emilion wine area in a little train!
*All along the Gironde Estuary, these shacks on stilts take their name from the square nets used for fishing.

and he's still in business selling his crap. Thank you the ill informed for keeping such a person in business.
Ted Denney's Excellent Adventure
As I had been impressed with Ted Denney's Synergistic Research cable, I thought that asking him for 25,000 words on his thoughts on cable design and performance would be an appropriate accompaniment to my Symphonic Line Kraft 400 amplifier review.
Ted Denney: Two important things to start off with: First, no one cable can perform musically in every system; second, price is not a guarantee of performance. For example, in your system, Jonathan, I recommended our Phase 2 Mk.Vnot the more expensive Resolution Referenceto run to your amps, because they're more suited to that application. The Reference interconnect is designed for a different kind of component, like the tubed Jadis JA 200s.
You have to find a cable that works with a given set of components, so what we do is develop different sets of cables designed to complement or bring out the best possible performance for these different types of components. In some cases, our entry-level cable, the Alpha Series, can outperform our most expensive cables, provided they're properly matched.
Jonathan Scull: How does your customer typically choose the right cable at Synergistic Research?
Denney: We have a book available at all of our dealers called The Synergistic Research Explorers Guide. Your readers can give us a call and we'll send it out to them. It outlines every cable we make and which components and price level they're designed to work with. The other thing we do for our customers is, when you go to an authorized Synergistic Research dealer, you can fill out a form that allows us to run a diagnostic on your system.
Aside from determining the equipment, we ask important questions about the way the system sounds: how it soundstages, its general timbre, if it's forward, dark, bright, the placement of the speakers, and the general acoustics of your listening room. The dealer faxes this information to us, and, based on the information provided, we fax back a recommendation of what will work given that particular system. So, in essence, we'll match a complete set of cables to anyone's system, and do it right here at the factory.
You see, it's not a question of price points, or the more money you spend, the better it gets. Designing at progressively higher price points is inherently a flawed concept. It's true that, as the associated equipment gets more expensive, it allows us to do moreeither by hand-building them or by careful materials selection. You can't do that at a lower price point. But anyway, since we optimize the cable for a particular application, you can get a cable that works best for your system without spending a ton of money!
Scull: Let's hear about the materials selection.
Denney: First, we select cable geometries for a given cable based on the engineering requirements or the transfer characteristics of the target components. For example, if we supply an interconnect for a broad-bandwidth solid-state amp, like the Kraft 400s, we'll make a heavily shielded cable. If we're going into a tube amp, we'll do an unshielded cable that's extremely low in capacitance. Then we build several versions of that cable using different materials, listening for their contribution to the sound. With us, there isn't a standard hierarchy of materials, with silver and Teflon, for example, at the top of an almost infinite list of possibilities.
Scull: What are the typical materials found in your products?
Denney: We don't use any pure silver or copper in our interconnectsit's all alloys. They have better measurable characteristics at 1GHz than do silver or copper, and in subjective listening tests seem to have a more developed midrange and are texturally more complete. We picked up that technology by working with aerospace engineers.
Scull: Is the wire silver-plated?
Denney: It's coated with a preparatory alloy that prevents it from oxidizing. It also improves high-frequency transfer at the surface, where these frequencies propagate. However, our speaker wires are pure copperit simply sounds the best.
Scull: How about the dielectric?
Denney: We use foamed polypropylene and modified polyethylene.
Scull: 'Scuse me, Ted?
Denney: Yeah, we've changed the chemical compounds slightly. We like polyethylene because it has a dielectric constant almost equal to that of Teflon; but in our listening tests, it sounded much more developed both spatially and texturally, where Teflon alone sounds somewhat thin and bright by comparison.
Scull: And the jacket material?
Denney: On our more expensive cables, we use a handmade, woven jacket that acts as a dissimilar surface that dissipates vibration. We also use polymer cores and cotton shafts to suppress conductor resonances. On the lower-cost Alpha Series, the jackets are vacuum-sealed over the conductors and dielectrics to suppress the conductor resonances.
Scull: In what configuration do you make your cables?
Denney: We use solid-core, stranded, and Litz conductors, combining them to get the best performance. You know, Jonathan, you can't build a symphony with just one instrument!
Scull: Can I quote you on that, Mr. Denney?
Denney: Yeah! You get a more complete presentation by combining different technologiesthat's why we use subjective listening tests when selecting materials. Earlier you asked about the dielectricI want to tell you that sometimes we actually pass the signal through two separate modifications of a polyethylene dielectric. In many of our interconnects, one type seems to have the right character for upper frequencies, while another will flesh out the bass and the lower midrange.
Scull: I see...
Denney: And, you may ask, why do we build some of our cables by hand?
Scull: Yes, I may ask that...
Denney: Well, we make the less expensive Alpha interconnect on a machinethe Alpha Sterling goes for $150 with silver, and I want to tell you, it costs as much to build as anyone's silver cable, which they might sell for $500 or $600. Just because you build a cable out of silver and Teflon doesn't automatically make it worth 10 times its weight in gold! But we also make handmade interconnects that take over an hour to build just for one pair, which we then run through some tests and give a serial number to.
When we build 'em by hand, we can scrutinize the materials through listening tests before putting them in the cable. Whenever I get a new spool of conductor material, we build a test assembly and listen to the signal in one direction, then flip it around and listen in the other direction. I mark the spool with the direction of the cable. What direction they wind up in the cable itself is dependent on which cable it's going in. It may run in either one direction or another! In many cables, we'll run it in one direction in 6'-and-under lengths, and flip it around for longer lengths. If we made it all by machine, we couldn't do any of this.
Another thing: We may run the signal wire in one direction and the ground wire in the other. Whatever sounds best. When we build our most expensive stuff, the Resolution Reference, sometimes it's murder to find a spool of cable or conductor material to build it with. People want 'em, but we can't get the materials that have the sound for it.
Scull: Okay, Ted. That's 24,998 wordstwo to go!
Denney: Thanks, Jonathan.
Scull: That's it!
"...does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown." - Broca's Brain (1979), Carl Sagan
How many billions of dollars have you saved from not buying any high-end audio products since 1995, Georgie?
Gosh look at that impressive quote. So you are saying that Ted is a genius? How many of Ted Denney's products have you bought? Oh is that a big fat zero? Why not? Come on and help the poor guy out. You seem to endorse his stuff yet own none of it? Just another "I own none of this yet feel compelled to defend his right to sell it". Hooray for scams.
He's not the genius I was referring to, Georgie.
and an idiot.
A tin-eared, hate-filled, mistrustful, idiot.
I thought George was supposed to be the hater according to yourself. In my opinion he brings a lot of good questions to discussions. Do you always trust what you read or do you question why thngs are the way as claimed? Simply posting hate filled diatribes like yourself and ChrisS do doesn't earn you any respect. In fact it just shows everyone that reads them how little you have said that's worth reading.
So do you Glotz own any of Ted Denney's products and wish to comment on how great they are?
Most, if not all, Georgie's questions are rhetorical and his posts challenging, since he references neither good scientific information nor personal experience.
and your replies sre SO educational. Sorry if you find my posts challenging. I fail to see any good scientific information or personal experience in Ted Denney'd products. If you wish to defend his products then please at least own some and have personal experience. It doesn't take personal experience to read what a load of BS he sells but it does take personal experience to defend it. If you think quantum whatever and magic bowls are relevant selling point then show us why. Simple 2 or 3 sentence replies doesn't cut it.
You base your criticisms solely on marketing information.
It's not a matter of 'sorry', do some good research and/or just listen.
Do you also believe that Ford makes the best trucks in the world?
I base my criticisms of Ted Denney's products based upon what he has posted and claimed not only in Stereophile's forum but other audio forums, looked at his website and tried to make sense of all the clap trap on it, read carefully his claims and decided it's mostly if not completely 100% BS and not one shred of good basic science or proof in any of it. It's all marketing and flashy words/pictures.
In other words I used commom sense and wasn't suckered into believing his psesudo science. Quantum tunneling. magic bowls, directional cables, his ability to come up with "new" products year after year because he knows so much that others don't? PUHLEEZ.
Why listen to things you know don't make any difference? Have you listened to Tice Clocks, Magic Pebbles,green marker pens on CDs, crystals on power cords and other similar things? NO, because you already know it's BS and a waste of time, or at least I hope you do.
The best truck in the world is made by Toyota and i own it already
I have no issues with Ted Denney or his products.
Are you holding your breath, Georgie?
Railing against any product because you don't like or can't understand the "science", the hype, or the sloganeering, is like railing against Ford advertising and vowing to never, ever own or drive any of their products.
There's absolutely no weight to your argument.
Even another poster, who normally supports you, has said of your criticism of another product, "As much as I appreciate and respect (George Holland) your comments in your posts, I have to say that if anyone hasn't tried this unit with their own records or a demonstration of its sonic benefits, then one is undermining their own position by criticizing it."
To be in business for almost 20 years is quite remarkle in the high end audio world these days, you can't keep going on hype alone. BS products have short shelf life, get shot down quickly and die a fiery death.
So how does Ted Denney do it? There must be something about these products beyond your understanding Georgie that makes people plunk down their overburdened credit cards to acquire those Synergistic Research products (oh, the Audio Desk Systeme Vinyl Cleaner, Nordost Valhalla cables, and others, too). Some don't even care about the science or the hype, but are willing to try and buy (not always in that order).
So a few more sentences for you, Georgie. Basically you put yourself into an untenable position, since you are merely expressing an opinion in a rather ill-mannered way.
Pseudo science, learn the difference. There is'nt any real science involved in these scam products just marketing. Fancy words made up to fool those not educated enough to know the difference. "Hype" is correrct. It isn't even close to science.
Who railed against Ford? I just happen to own a very dependable Toyota product. I think it's you that doesn't have weight to your arguement.
So someone else thought I was wrong. What a shock, how will I sleep at night now?
BS products have a short life? What about Magic Pebbles and Nordost?
Yes you are correct, some do not even care about the science, which is the whole problem.
As to your last statement, so using basic good sense and good logic and not falling for snake oil is not the way to evaluate what is possible and what isn't? I shall inform the school systems that education is no longer needed then. I find it rather amusing you basicly said nothing and used more sentences. Way to go.
So once more let me ask you, do you own any of Denney's products? if not then how do you know they are what they claim or are you just once more expressing an OPINION? Not a very good arguement you are trying to make huh?
All school kids who understand scientific methodology know that good science requires testing and validation. Your ideas and opinions never leave your head, Georgie! That's not science.
So show us the testing and validation of Ted Denney'd products. You can't because no one has done any valid testing of his crap.
Being in business for almost 2 decades, people buying and enjoying his products for that amount of time is more than enough validation.
The market place is a tough testing ground.
Your opinion doesn't change that...
Yep no one stays in business for long selling scam products
Shall I keep listing such companies or is this enough?
Oh yeah forgot to link Ted Denney's website, it's great for laughs.
It's your opinion that these companies and products are scams. Those who buy and use their products have different opinions.
How many have you bought? Please tell us of the many you own, details please.
So you have zero experience with all these products yet feel compelled to defend them as being "real" and you try and buy nothing yourself? Figures.
Where in my posts have I defended anything?
Do you buy stuff just to validate yourself, Georgie?
Useless responding to a broken record. have fun listening to the voices in your head. Adios.
and Georgie and Alex have not. An opinion you have not.
They ARE fantastic sounding products, and I hope to own an entire loom of those products. I have more than enough to spend on new analog and digital components, but all in due time.
No, they are not cheap, nor are they cheaply made. There are many listeners that agree they sound great, but then again, you neither of you can make that assertion, CAN you? (The answer is NO- you haven't heard them.)
You keep telling everyone is wrong, but everyone has more experience listening to, using and sharing thoughts about these products (along with all of the other tweaks and products you maligned), and their opinion DOES matter MORE than yours, because they ACTUALLY listened to or through them, UNLIKE YOU. That automatically invalidates your opinion. (Where is Ivor when you need him?)
So, I stick to my original comments. I, too, grow tired of trolls and flamebaiters, and they have no place on Stereophile's site, no matter how fair the administrators are.
Sorry JA, and AB.. A momentary lapse of muscular coordination...
The subjective "oh this sounds great because Ted says it works"? or have you done any SBT or DBT of them to make sure it's not just yourself being influenced by sighted bias?Were the listening session done at a demo by Ted and what products did you listen to and what did you compare them to?
"Many listeners"? So far you are the only one admitting that you have listened to them. Lets not get carried away now.I like how you keep saying "everyone" when in fact it's just yourself you are speaking about.
Wow so any silly tweak is validated by the person who listened to it, no matter if it's bogus or not? Sorry but the "I know what I heard!" subjective drivel doesn't cut it when trying to provide proof.
So you admit to not owning any of Ted's products? Why not? If they are so great then buy his magic bowls. How can you enjoy the music you have otherwise.
Nah you just want to snuff out anyone's opinion that YOU don't agree with and that's not how it works.
The way you propose to do blind testing doesn't prove anything. Do you know anyone who blind tests anything before buying a product of any kind?... Your disbelief and expectation of failure is also subjective.
Look around you, Georgie, get out of your head! There's a world of people who try/buy these products all the time. You're the one who doesn't.
You can have an opinion, it just doesn't matter to those who use their own experience to determine whether to buy a product or not.
Glad you brought up "expectation" a really wonderful term for those expecting a pricey product to perform as claimed so no need to validate anything hmmmmmm?
Why yes thank you for placing me into the sane catagory of those that don't buy such BS.
Yes you are correct, my opinion is my own and it doesn't matter to those that are gullible and have open checkbooks. Do I care of they spend thousands on wire? Nope not at all, it's not my money BUT I do take issue with Ted Denney making foolish pseudo scientific claims with ZERO ability to back them up.
I recall when he posted in the forums a few years back and an objective skeptic said flat out that he was a fraud and Ted took issue with that and hinted at legal action and the skeptic told him in so many words to sue him if he thought he could win. Of course Ted never did because that would require him to SHOW and PROVE his products actually worked in a court of law Funny how that worked out.

History of OVAE's funding to eligible state agencies under AEFLA.
Estimated Allocation will be awarded for FY 2015 PDF (315 KB) under the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act (AEFLA), Title II of the Workforce Investment Act. These funds were made available on July 1, 2015.
The Adult Basic Education State Grant is authorized under the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act (AEFLA), Title II of the Workforce Investment Act.
OVAE Program Guidance
On June 23, 2014, a Joint OCTAE and Institute of Museum and Library Services Dear Colleague Letter [PDF, 534K] was released. This letter encourages stronger partnerships between adult education programs and libraries to benefit youth and adults with low skills, especially around the development of digital literacy.
On June 6, 2012, a Joint Department of Education and Labor Letter [PDF, 585K] was submitted to the Committee on Education and the Workforce, to present the view of the Departments on H.R. 4297, the Workforce Investment Act of 2012, as introduced by Representative Foxx, Chair of the Subcommittee on Higher Education and Workforce Training, and Representatives McKeon and Heck. The Departments strongly opposed the bill.
Section 212 of AEFLA authorizes a performance accountability system for adult education. OVAE has operationalized this requirement through issuance of the NRS Implementation Guidelines.
OVAE issued several policy memoranda and Federal Register notices to eligible states concerning implementation of AEFLA, program administration issues, and English Literacy and Civics Education (EL/Civics) funding.
Incentive Grants
Section 503 of the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) authorizes the Secretary of Labor to award incentive grants to states that exceed performance levels for programs authorized by title I of WIA and the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act (AEFLA). The grants are used for a variety of purposes, including adult education and literacy.
Assessment Regulations PDF (4.21M) issued on January 14, 2008 specify requirements for statewide assessment policies for the NRS that must contain certain elements and be submitted to and approved by OVAE each year. The regulations also describe how tests must be administered locally in order to accurately measure education gains. A current list of tests determined to be suitable for use in the NRS for adult education can be found on the Federal Register.

Naturally trendy?
From time to time, there is discussion about whether the recent warming trend is due just to chance. We have heard arguments that so-called 'random walk' can produce similar hikes in temperature (any reason why the global mean temperature should behave like the displacement of a molecule in Brownian motion?). The latest in this category of discussions was provided by Cohn and Lins (2005), who in essence pitch statistics against physics. They observe that tests for trends are sensitive to the expectations, or the choice of the null-hypothesis .
Cohn and Lins argue that long-term persistence (LTP) makes standard hypothesis testing difficult. While it is true that statistical tests do depend on the underlying assumptions, it is not given that chosen statistical models such as AR (autoregressive), ARMA, ARIMA, or FARIMA do provide an adequate representation of the null-distribution. All these statistical models do represent a type of structure in time, be it as simple as a serial correlation, persistence, or more complex recurring patterns. Thus, the choice of model determines what kind of temporal pattern one expects to be present in the process analysed. Although these models tend to be referred to as 'stochastic models' (a random number generator is usually used to provide underlying input for their behaviour), I think this is a misnomer, and think that the labels 'pseudo-stochastic' or 'semi-stochastic' are more appropriate. It is important to keep in mind that these models are not necessarily representative of nature – just convenient models which to some degree mimic the empirical data. In fact, I would argue that all these models are far inferior compared to the general circulation models (GCMs) for the study of our climate, and that the most appropriate null-distributions are derived from long control simulations performed with such GCMs. The GCMs embody much more physically-based information, and do provide a physically consistent representation of the radiative balance, energy distribution and dynamical processes in our climate system. No GCM does suggest a global mean temperature hike as observed, unless an enhanced greenhouse effect is taken into account. The question whether the recent global warming is natural or not is an issue that belongs in 'detection and attribution' topic in climate research.

Finding the perfect nude lipstick is harder than it sounds. Too dark, and you look like you're trying to make brown lipstick happen (and not in a cool '90s way). Too light, and you start to resemble the living dead. To help you avoid both of these beauty faux pas, we tapped into celebrity makeup artist Fiona Stiles' well-versed mind and asked her to share her knowledge about finding the most flattering (read: not zombie-like) nude lipstick for your unique skin tone.

Since Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals the Blackhawks have
traded five players from their active roster (Ben Eager, Kris Versteeg, Dustin Byfuglien,
Andrew Ladd, and Brent Sopel).
These five players accounted for 22 of the 'Hawks 78 playoff
goals and 62 of the team's 271 regular season tallies. Of the 22 playoff markers, eight were
game-winners, meaning half of Chicago's
playoff victories were decided by these players.
is also likely to lose two more players, John Madden and Nick Boynton, via free
agency, or possibly retirement in Boynton's case, before the summer is
over. And don't forget that during the
year the 'Hawks traded promising young defenseman Cam Barker.
It's not uncommon for a championship team to lose a few key
parts in the ensuing offseason, but usually this happens through free agency
when other teams overpay solid, if not spectacular players because of their
roles on the winning team. But the Blackhawks
lost their five key players because they simply couldn't afford to keep the
gang together.
There's no mistaking who Chicago considers to be its core following
all these moves. Patrick Kane, Jonathan
Toews, Marian Hossa, Patrick Sharp, Duncan Keith, Brent Seabrook, Niklas
Hjalmarsson, and Antti Niemi are the unquestioned leaders of the 'Hawks. But given their financial state, the
Blackhawks were forced to part with some of their talented young players they
would have much preferred to keep.
was only in position to win the Stanley Cup in the first place because of impressive
drafting and player development, but the success in this area that brought the
Blackhawks a championship cost them many of the players that helped deliver it.
The truth is that while most successful NHL teams have
realized that building from within is the best recipe for success, nowhere in
the NHL rules does it say that it's the only or recommended way to build a team. The 'Hawks have done an enviable job in
getting to the top of the mountain, but the constraints of the Salary Cap apply
the same for them as for teams hiring mercenaries.
It's disheartening to watch an organization build its roster
"the right way" and have to dismantle it weeks after winning it all, but such
are the consequences of success. The
Blackhawks won because they groomed players into stars, and they lost those
players because they developed into stars that deserved significant pay
The Blackhawks deserve kudos for building a team of mainly
homegrown talent, but it doesn't mean they get a reward.
The truth is there's no infallible way to build a team. Building from within seems like the best way
but the 'Hawks have proven that it can present the same problems as signing
free agents to massive deals. The Salary
Cap ensures that a team can only pay a certain number of top players, whether
they're from within the organization or elsewhere.
The ultimate goal in the NHL is sustained success. The Blackhawks won a title this year, and are
undoubtedly a contender for next season. But considering the impact the players they parted with had throughout
the season, Chicago
is certainly weaker now than it was a few months ago. Though they've maintained their young
identity, it can't have been easy for management or fans to wave goodbye to key
cogs of their title team.
The good news for the 'Hawks is that they turned most of their
former assets into future assets, by acquiring draft picks and prospects who
could one day fill the same roles as the players they replaced.
But it's no guarantee. Maybe Nick Leddy, Jeremy Morin, Kevin Hayes, Justin Holl, Viktor
Stalberg, Ivan Vishnevsky, Philippe Paradis, Christopher DiDomenico, et al. will
one day help guide the 'Hawks through the playoffs to another title. But maybe some of Chicago's newest prospects will not develop
as well as the former Blackhawks and the team will struggle a bit with its
Chicago achieved every
team's ultimate goal, but just as quickly the Blackhawks were forced to take
apart their team. Considering the stars
they've retained, the 'Hawks are a good bet to contend for several years. But they couldn't avoid the wrath of the
Salary Cap, for better or worse.

|Turner New Ashe Coordinator of Child Nutrition
|Written by Lesia Nave
|Wednesday, 16 May 2012 13:29
Ashe County Schools is pleased to announce the recent appointment of Martha Turner to the position of Coordinator of Child Nutrition. Mrs. Turner steps into this role upon the retirement of Angelina "Angie" Thompson. Mrs. Thompson who has served in this capacity for over four years, states,
"This position has been challenging due to reform in child nutrition services at both the state and federal levels. However, this has been a very rewarding experience as I have been able to work with all the students and staff of Ashe County Schools. They have given me suggestions on how to improve the child nutrition program and increase participation. I personally have enjoyed working closely with the managers and all cafeteria staff. They work hard on a daily basis and adapt to the many changes in child nutrition."
One of Mrs. Thompson's accomplishments is the continuance of the Fruit and Veggie Grant provided through the US Department of Agriculture. This grant provides a fresh fruit or vegetable as a snack to each student four times a week at the three elementary schools. This school year, Mrs. Thompson, along with the cooperation of the administration and staff at Blue Ridge Elementary, implemented the Universal Breakfast Program where every child has the opportunity to eat a free breakfast regardless of lunch status.
Mrs. Turner will have the opportunity to work and train with Mrs. Thompson. She brings leadership skills, team collaboration, and business knowledge to the position. Mrs. Turner has a leadership style that rallies all stakeholders. Her communication skills and ability to adapt will assist in this transition. Her experience with the school system as a classroom teacher will provide an avenue to educate students and staff regarding nutrition and developing a healthier lifestyle. She will be able to work with classroom teachers to incorporate lessons within the curriculum based on the new federal guidelines. Ashe County Schools welcomes Mrs. Turner to this new position.
