State's students show gains in writing on NECAP tests
MONTPELIER Vermonts elementary and middle-school students are showing improvement in their writing skills, but reading and math scores remain virtually unchanged, according to results from the New England Common Assessment Program released Wednesday.
Proficiency in writing among middle-school pupils jumped seven points between fall 2011 and 2012, from 59 percent to 66 percent. Elementary pupils scores also showed improvement during the same period, rising five points, with 51 percent of them proficient. Writing proficiency among high school students dipped slightly, from 48 percent to 46 percent.
On the mathematics side, 65 percent of pupils in grades three through eight were considered proficient, unchanged from the previous year. Among high school students, proficiency rose from 36 percent in 2011 to 38 percent in 2012.
NECAP uses four categories to characterize students scores: proficient with distinction, proficient, partially proficient and substantially below proficient. For reporting purposes, proficiency scores will include a combined score of proficient and proficient with distinction.
While we only saw a slight increase in high school math scores, our educators are serious about improving our students understanding and passion for math, said Secretary of Education Armando Vilaseca. If Vermonts students are going to be ready to continue their education beyond high school and be successful in the 21st century, theyre going to need stronger math skills and knowledge. A 2 percent increase is not enough.
In Barre, Spaulding High School saw gains in reading proficiency from 66 percent to 72 percent and a four-point decrease in math proficiency to 34 percent.
We went up 6 percent and the state went up 2 percent, so were more than holding the line, said Spaulding Assistant Principal Chris Hennessey of his schools reading scores, while also noting his young math department and recent revamping of its curriculum. We still have a bit of work to do there.
Montpelier High School students proficiency level dropped slightly in reading from 85 percent to 83 percent while they gained by a greater amount in math, showing 62 percent proficient. The previous year, 57 percent reached that level in math.

Course Enrollments
I found this course very useful in getting me started on my writing projects. I'm actually doing a Masters degree, but I haven't been in school in a while. This course helped me to avoid writing cliches and sentences that are to dramatic and out of place for college/graduate level writing. The production quality is great; you can hear the instructor clearly throughout the course. I did have problems viewing the lectures after the last video lecture though. Ebele Mogo has an excited and positive attitude making it very easy to follow along and complete this course quickly.
The lecture is good for international student that will write an assignment or essay. However, some supplementary links on the right side is not working properly.

Dear Senior Living Adviser,
My fiance is about to receive a lawsuit settlement from a wrongful death suit of his wife. He is 62 and has been financially irresponsible all his life. We are both on Social Security with no other income.
He is underwater with his house, has no retirement savings -- but no other debt. His home needs many repairs, his car is old, etc.
My house and car are paid for. I have no debt and $42,000 in an IRA.
He wants to give some of the money to his three sons (all adults). How much should he give his children? Since this is going to directly affect me, how can I help him decide how to allocate the rest of the money? Thank you.

- Sharon Share
Dear Sharon,
I expect that your fiance wants to share the settlement with his adult sons because he recognizes that when he lost his wife, they lost their mother. They shared in the loss; he wants them to share in the settlement.
There are gift tax implications for large gifts above the annual exclusion amount, which for 2014 is $14,000 per person. But they aren't all that onerous -- just something to deal with at tax time when making a large gift.
You're painting a picture that you're in control of your finances and he is not doing a very good job with his, and the majority of the lawsuit settlement funds should be spent righting his finances for your future together. I can understand that point of view, but I'd tread lightly in volunteering your opinion on how the money should be allocated. Bringing in a financial planning professional on a fee-only basis to discuss his retirement income needs and how the settlement should be invested would get you out of the role of financial adviser.
That said, it would be healthy to have a discussion on how you'll manage your finances as a couple after you're married. What happens with the proceeds if you sell your house to move into his home? How many cars will you have? Will you keep your money separate or in a joint account? Who pays the utilities, the mortgage, the insurance and the cable bills?
Since he's just 62, it could make sense for him to withdraw his Social Security claim and reapply when he reaches full retirement age, or even wait until age 70. If eligible, he would have to repay all the benefits received. This can only be done in the 12 months following when he was entitled to receive retirement benefits. He can talk to a representative at the Social Security office for more details.

Citing the deterioration in global economies, Riviera has made 121 redundancies among contract and employed staff across the company's entire operation.
John Anderson has recently taken over from Wes Moxey as CEO of Riviera.
Recently appointed CEO John Anderson said: "As a significant exporter and a major employer on the Gold Coast, Riviera must make responsible business decisions about its company structure. Reduced demand means we have no easy alternative to this course. Over the last 8 months we have constantly monitored and adjusted our business to reflect future market demand.
"800 staff remain employed at our Coomera facility and Riviera continues to be a robust company with a clear vision for the future. Our new models such as the 70 Enclosed Flybridge, 43 Offshore Express and 5800 Sport Yacht have created great interest and have generated multiple forward orders.
"The company is well positioned to respond to growing market conditions when they occur and will emerge from this current economic downturn an even stronger organisation."
He said the employees affected today had been paid their full entitlement and offered a high level of support, counselling and career relocation advice including career planning, job seeking, resume writing and interview skills.

The Anaheim resort is the first Disney location to use smartphone ticketing, said Melissa Britt, a Disneyland Resort spokeswoman. For now, only one-day tickets are available, but Disney plans to add multi-day passes later.
Disney decided to launch the program this summer to give visitors another option to buy tickets on the spot besides standing in line on busy days, Britt said. New Disney California Adventure attractions, including Cars Land, are attracting record crowds.
Knott's Berry Farm has an app available on iPhones and Android devices that can be used to purchase tickets, said Jennifer Blazey, a Knott's spokeswoman. Knott's visitors then can use a barcode to scan at the gates.
At Disney park turnstiles, smartphone buyers are given paper tickets to be used through the day, including for Fastpasses.
How do Disney tickets work:
• Go to m.disneyland.com and select "Buy Tickets."
• Select the type of ticket.
• Enter the number of tickets and credit card information.
• A confirmation number will be given with a barcode, which can be scanned when entering the park.
Other theme parks also are starting to use smartphone ticketing, including King's Island in Ohio that began the program this summer.

Thank you for your time in this matter.?

Not as confident in my Texans like I should be given their level of play during December. I still believe we pull this one out but in order to make a serious run and get through Denver, someone other than the usual playmakers HAS to step up into the spotlight and seize the moment. We're down to Bradie James, a midseason FA pickup, and 2 practice squad guys to play ILB that's clearly our most vulnerable area in our defense. Right side of the offensive line has been an inconsistent clusterfu*k the entire season, I'm just hoping they don't cost us anymore games.
Because of the slide at the end of the season, the Texans's success this postseason is hinging upon the very thing all of us Texans fans feared and hoped it would never come down to: the arm of Matt Schaub. I don't know what's in store this post-season but if Schaub plas anything less than Joe Montana-esque this postseason, his days in Houston are numbered. Right now he's all we got and I'm hoping for the best.
All that being said, LET'S GOOOOOOO TEXANS!

Need Dalton to take that next step today. Offense has looked like sh*t last 3 games. But the defense has looked a lot better lately especially the secondary. I just need Dalton to not target over 50% of his passes to Green, spread the wealth to take attention away from him and BJGE needs to have a big day, knowing he is not 100%, so Cedric Peerman needs to get touches to.

European shares rebound off lowsComment on this story
London - European shares rebounded on Friday, with traders arguing that worries over the Italian election and a possible end to central bank stimulus steps would be short-lived, enabling markets to resume their rally.
The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 index rose 0.4 percent to 1,155.97 points, recovering from a 1.5 percent fall in the previous session.
The euro zone's blue-chip Euro STOXX 50 index also rose 0.5 percent to 2,593.31 points, having fallen 2.3 percent in the previous session to a fresh 2013 low.
All European equity sectors were in positive territory, with the STOXX Europe 600 basic resources sector - which comprises major mining stocks - leading the way with a 1.1 percent rise.
Markets had fallen earlier this week over worries that the US Federal Reserve may curb its monetary stimulus measures and on uncertainty over the results of elections next week in Italy, which has been hit hard by the euro zone's debt crisis.
However, Berkeley Futures associate director Richard Griffiths said investors were still using stock market falls to buy shares "on the dip" on expectations that any hurdles over potential issues such as Italy would be quickly overcome.
"The markets took a heavy dive earlier this week, but they're showing signs of a partial recovery," said Griffiths.
"The fact that traders are still buying on the dips shows that they're hoping that the global economic recovery will continue, although it will take time," he added. - Reuters

Residents of Park Vista share life stories, talents through literary magazine.
PORT ORCHARD - Bruce Dickinson may not type, but he has stories to tell. Like the time when at age 13 he met Boston Red Sox baseball player Ted Williams, one of the Baseball Hall of Fame inductees. Or about his times as a sports editor and a Red Sox recruiter.
"In my process of going through school, I could never afford a typewriter," he says. So he still writes in long hand.
Dickinson's stories — and many other amazing tales of yesteryear — are published in a quarterly publication called Park Vista Views. The contributors — writers, poets, artists — are residents of Park Vista, and the goal of the magazine is to give voice to the many interesting, rich experiences they collectively hold.
"Everybody has a story," says outgoing editor Rosie Atkinson, who's the one to type up Dickinson's stories while also editing the publication and always recruiting new writers. The homey-looking, small magazine is in its third year, originally published monthly. It's a labor of love for Atkinson and designer Margi Conant, who are responsible for its production.
Atkinson has had a long career in newspapers and magazines, having written for local newspapers and several boating magazines. She started out as a columnist and at one point became a lifestyle editor at the then-Bremerton Sun. She recalls writing a neighborhood gossip column for one paper for 10 cents a column-inch.
"It was a lot of family gossip. We were embarrassed to go to school, it was very traumatic," her daughter, Teri Girard, quips.
Atkinson and her husband, Charlie, lived in a Southworth waterfront home for 40 years. Charlie worked at Boeing while Atkinson freelanced after moving on to a new career. She could no longer work in the newsroom after the ink was changed to contain formaldehyde, which caused her allergies.
She's gone on to do various things including being a stained glass artist. "I reinvent myself every few years," she says. Although she's had open-heart surgery last summer, she's back to good health and keeps at her own writing. And she's recently ventured into Web 2.0: Encouraged by her family, Atkinson started a blog, where she writes memories she hopes to become a book some day.
Like many of Park Vista residents, Atkinson has plenty to write about. Her parents were European immigrants and her mother, who lived to be 100, became a painter at age 78 and even had some gallery exhibits, including a one-woman show at age 80. "She reinvented herself in so many ways," Atkinson says. "I guess I patterned some of my life after her."
Some of those artistic genes continue to run in the family, including in several of Atkinson's children. Girard, for example, is a cartoonist who did graphic design for many years, working on multiple deadlines designing several papers. Then she met a cartoonist. "He had no deadlines. That really appealed to me," she says.
She volunteers to create illustrations for Park Vista Views, and loves the magazine and the residents. "They have great stories," she says. "Some of the people here have had great careers and interesting lives."
Stories such as those of Charles Marsh, who grew up in Hollywood in the '30s and '40s, and in 1989 was one of 100-some survivors of United Flight 232 crash in Sioux City, Iowa. The crash killed 111 people and injured 172.
Stories such as those of Wes Koentz, who worked for Alaska Communications in the 1950s, a major telecom at the time. Or the stories of a retired Marine who worked at Disney, or a woman who grew up when girls were not allowed to take mechanical drawing classes in school yet became a longtime city engineer. And sprinkled in with the stories are poems and art.
The magazine is only distributed at the retirement home, but Atkinson hopes in the future it will be available online. "There is enough talent here," she says. "We can get some good stories."

Just make a mold of my butt, slap it on my chest and add nipples. Thanks, Doc!
I see June's still busting out all over.
Was the photographer a vampire?
…good one.
Pretty hair for a blow up doll. They don't usually put that much effort into the parts you can't have sex with.
Why is she smuggling C3PO?
and exhale.
This chick's got a pretty solid looking ass… and we get a picture of her questionable face and smashed-down fake titties?
There have been thousands of pictures of her ass posted here in the past. I think I like this other view for a change. Now I can hardly wait for her pelvic exam.
Frankly, until now I had no idea what her face looks like.
You sure? I think I'll stick with the ass. Wouldn't go so far as to call the face "busted" or anything but below the 50th percentile line for celebs, IMHO.
…i was thinking the same thing! …i'm just now noticing she is borderline butter-face.
Pretty nice tits for a dude.
Hello again, baby. So good to see you again. I don't see her nearly enough anymore on this site.
I bet she can still open stubborn pistachios with her butt.
…if that's a monty python reference: kudos to you, sir …kudos.
Thank gahd SOMEbody got it!

About the Program
Unemployment Insurance is a nationwide program created to provide partial wage replacement to unemployed workers while they conduct an active search for new work.
Payments made directly to the individual ensure that at least some of life's necessities such as food, shelter and clothing can be met while looking for work.
The program benefits the individual and the local community. For the most part, UI benefits are spent in the local community, which helps sustain the economic well being of local businesses.
Unemployment Insurance is a federal-state program, based on federal law, but executed through state law. Employers finance the UI program by tax contributions. In California, the EDD administers the UI program according to guidelines established by the UI Code and the California Code of Regulations, Title 22.

Two school board members are trying to keep Fountain Inn High construction on schedule by adding middle school grades to a building that would have a capacity of 1,000 but has been projected to be just over one-tenth full on opening day.
Board members Crystal Ball O'Connor and Lisa Wells, who represent the Fountain Inn area, said that adding grades 6-8 to the high school is the most promising way to open the school on time in 2017.
Their plan would shelve an expansion of Rudolph Gordon Elementary, where the district has long been planning to add grades 6-8. ...

Well, since there are a bunch of other newbs from Ontario posting here, I might as well join in.
I'm not sure how much I'll post here, but it looks like a great reading resource anyway.
1) HP Velotechnik Streetmachine. Under-seat steering, short-wheelbase full-suspension touring recumbent. That's my main ride.
2) Norco Wolverine mountain bike. It's the "reflecto-bike" because it's nearly 100% covered in very bright reflective tape...because it's my winter bike and I want to be visible! Also fitted it with a SRAM 7-sp internal hub w/coaster brake...perfect for winter.
3) Swing Bike - home-built by Mike Watson. Fun fun fun....makes a great short-distance bike.
Anyway, I should get back to work...

IBN Live reports that Maharashtra farmers are using Google Earth to fight back against a government ruling that they would take 25,000 acres away from them to build a Maha Mumbai Special Economic Zone. The government told the farmers that "only a small portion of the earmarked land is fertile and that some parts of it is submerged by salty creek water." But Google Earth came to the rescue of the farmers, where they were able "to prove to the authorities that the land is fertile," said Arun Shivkar an SEZ activist. No wonder the Maharashtra state government in India is upsetwith Google. Just kidding!

A California school district asked students to consider whether the Holocaust was an "actual event" or "a political scheme".
00:05, UK, Friday 09 May 2014
California school officials have said an assignment asking students to write an essay on whether they believe the Holocaust really happened was "horribly inappropriate".
The Rialto Unified School District made headlines when it gave eighth-grade students a critical-thinking writing assignment on whether the Holocaust was an actual event or "merely a political scheme created to influence public emotion and gain".
The assignment drew the immediate condemnation of Jewish groups, tolerance organisations and community leaders.
The Simon Wiesenthal Center said in a statement that it was "appalled by this grotesque 'assignment'".
The California-based group called the Nazi Holocaust, in which six million Jews were killed, "the most documented monstrous crime in history".
The district had already withdrawn the assignment and called it an error.
But at a packed public meeting, the Rialto Unified School Board went further, taking "full responsibility".
Board president Joanne Gilberts said that a lack of internal checks had turned the project into a "horribly inappropriate assignment".
The board said it was "deeply sorry" for the mistake.
Ms Gilbert said eighth graders will undergo sensitivity training at the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles, and several other policy changes will be implemented.
It was not clear if any educator would be disciplined.

66-year-old Dianne Stracener was home alone in Oklahoma City, Okla. when she heard suspicious noises around her house. Stracener retrieved a gun, went to investigate and came upon an intruder inside the home. A physical struggle ensued, in which Stracener shot and killed the home invader.
Police were supportive of Ms. Stracener's actions, with Sgt. Jennifer Wardlow of the Oklahoma City police noting, "Obviously if she felt threatened, if she felt that she had the risk of some type of bodily harm or even death, she did have the right to defend herself there on the property." Stracener's neighbor James Arnette also showed his support, telling local media, "If it would have happened to me, I would've done the same thing… At that time, you want to do the best thing you can to stop something like that and that 'Make My Day' law, that's what it's all about." (KFOR, Oklahoma City, Okla. 03/01/12)

The Mariners updated the status of catcher Miguel Olivo, and well, it's pretty much no update.
The MRI revealed no tear of his strained groin muscle and the team said it would "proceed cautiously," the Seattle Times reports.
Olivo will continue to throw, but won't catch or hit.
As we talked about earlier today when discussing the Astros' search for a replacement for Jason Castro, there's not a whole lot of catchers out there. While the Astros would like another catcher, the Mariners will need one if Olivo isn't ready for the start of the season.
Besides Olivo, the team has just one other catcher on the 40-man roster and that's Adam Moore. Moore was scratched from Monday's lineup, so that's not good either. The team has Josh Bard, Chris Giminez and Steve Baron in Major League camp as non-roster invitees.
Olivo told reporters yesterday he would be fine for opening day, but players can afford to be more optimistic than front offices. Bard is the most experienced of the three remaining catchers in camp, playing in 39 games for the Mariners last season, while compiling 1,894 plate appearances in the big leagues over nine seasons. He's a career .256/.323/.387 and will be 33 by opening day.
In a quiet offseason for the Mariners, Olivo was the team's big splash, giving him a two-year, $7 million deal.For more baseball news, rumors and analysis, follow @cbssportsmlb on Twitter or subscribe to the RSS feed.

This last summer I had a SEVER case of flea infestation. I had never in my life had my house infested with fleas. I didn't know what to do. It was so bad that my daughter and I were getting bit by about 10 to 15 fleas every night. Mind you a flea bites 3 times in a row ~so we were getting 30 to 45 new bites a night. However, the husband and my two sons, never got one bite~lucky men. My daughter and I have scars on our ankles, legs, arms and waistline where they like to bit because your veins are closer to the surface there!
My cat had just had kittens so I could not treat her or the kittens. I took them to the vet and they gave me some Adams flea mist stuff that I could mist the Mom and the kittens with, but that did no good. I bought bombs and spray every week and bombed my house every seven days. And sprayed my house down daily. After about a month of doing this and no end in site, I finally removed the cats from my house because I was thinking maybe that was why they weren't going away because the cats weren't treated. So another month went by of me doing bombs every 7 days and spraying my house down daily~ (fortunately I have no carpet!!). I read so much on fleas, I could be a flea expert I am telling you, I would spend hours and hours researching their life cycle, span and more importantly how to kill them. I tried home remedies and anything you could think of to get rid of them.
Then on my weekly shopping trip to get my bombs and more spray I say the Raid Fogger for Fleas and the purple can of spray for fleas by Raid and decided to try it. I fogged my house, sprayed down beds, couches chairs and every where you could think of. That night when I went to bed, I was praying not to get a bite..and it was the first night in months my daughter and I didn't get bit up. Knowing that their is not a single product out their that will kill fleas while they are in the larva stage, I knew there were more in my house just waiting to attack. So 7 days later I turned my heat all the way up (even though it was summer time) and vacuumed each room for about 20 minutes. I did this because heat and vibration will make a flea come out of the larva. After spending most the day vacuuming my hard wood floors and heating the house up, I sprayed every spot in my house and fogged with the raid flea foggers. I never had a problem with fleas since. I have treated my cats that I kept and brought them back into the house. I will however, being using this product every summer in my house just to prevent them from coming back because this product lasts up to 4 months and that will get me through the flea season here!
I have only had a flea problem one other time in all the years I've owned dogs and/or cats so I was very worried about what to do. I have hardwood floors so it's not like I can spray them down like you can with carpeting. I did my homework and found that the main ingredients in this product; Pyrethrins and Methoprene, kill fleas and help stop part of the reproductive cycle of the flea. You can get more info on those chemicals at http://npic.orst.edu/index.html. This product is cheaper than the products that are sold in the pet isle and have the same ingredients too. I applied Pet Armor to all of my pets and then fogged my home almost 2 weeks ago and immediately noticed a significant drop in the amount of fleas and flea dirt I find on my pets. When I do find a flea it acts very lethargic. Other insects that get in the home are found dead too. I haven't mopped my floors since then so that I can be sure the chemicals keep killing. I know that sounds gross but it can take a couple of weeks for the full flea life cycle to complete so I'm not taking any chances. I am vacuuming like crazy and have a flea collar placed in the vacuum bag that kills fleas & stops eggs from hatching. I am also washing all bedding weekly. Because there is a pupa stage that no insecticide can touch I am going to fog once more to be sure I get them all. I will probably fog at the beginning of the flea season every year from now on as well. I do recommend this product. Just keep in mind that fleas go through several life cycle stages and it takes time to kill them off. No product is going to rid you of fleas overnight.
I Moved Into a New Apartment that had the carpet replaced Because of a Heavy Flea Infestation. Needless to say? They Did Not Exterminate when they replaced the carpet and I became over-come with fleas, both cat & dog fleas. Horrendous !! I Used High End Foggers for the 1st couple of months. Had Mopped, vacuumed, treated both animals .. ( In November-December-January !! ) Topicals on both animals also. Spent $350. Then? Decided to try the Raid Flea foggers. I Put 1 in Each Room. (Went through the Same Routine Before Fogging) Came back in 4 hours. My son came in 1st, dropped his clothes at the door/put them in a bag I had placed there, took a shower, texted me in the parking lot, I came in, did the same. Repeated this every 2 weeks for 3 months. Plus? Used the Raid Flea Carpet & Upholstery Spray on Furniture and in Hard to reach corners where I knew the fogger would not get to. Raid Worked !! It is a continuous, monotonous ordeal, but? This Product Works. IF done correctly. Don't forget to Take Every Piece of Fabric/Clothes/Drapes, to the Laundry mat. I can honestly say? The Raid Products Work. Much Better/Cheaper, Then the high end stuff so Don't waste your money on anything else. It is a Tedious ordeal, no different then if you had a head lice problem. It Takes time & Energy.
Let me start off by saying that this product does do what it says it's supposed to do, however it wasn't enough. Less than a week later I had to deal with the fleas again, because this product doesn't kill the eggs. So I ended up having to go somewhere else and got something that did kill the eggs.
I am allergic to fleas and unfortunately, they tend to follow me home a lot. LOL. Seriously, this is the only product that gets rid of the fleas and the eggs. All the other ones promise to get rid of the fleas, but you have a 10 day cycle where their eggs will hatch and you will have a problem all over again unless you get something that destroys the eggs also.
We had a kitten who brought fleas into our home. We spent days experimenting with natural remedies and traps for fleas that we found online. When nothing worked, we turned to chemicals. We bought 6 boxes of this and set of these bombs in every room of our house. We came back 4 hours later and cleaned for hours. When we finally sat down, a flea jumped onto my foot. The flea was alive and didn't seemed injured at all. Yes, there is less biting and appearance of fleas than before, but didn't fix the problem. We are calling an exterminator tomorrow.
I've never had a flea problem before until this year. This stuff works! I did my research before I bought anything because I didn't want to end up having to do it over again. Look no further! This stuff really works and is convenient because you can be back in your house after 4 hours. I also bought the carpet spray just for touch ups to be safe! Great stuff!
This product appears to be a life-saver. I am setting another fogger off tomorrow. I had major surgery last year and during that time squirrels set up housekeeping in my attic. I purchased this product to battle fleas that may have traveled in on the invaders. I'll have to schedule an electrician and roofer to inspect suspected damage.
I put this products 2 time in a week. 1 bottle for room it really worked for me , vacuum everyday.
I used one of these bombs in each and every room of my apt just to make sure it reached every inch of it and nothing! I would say it even got worse, before I only saw a flea every other day or so but now it's daily and I can't get rid of them. Also bought the spray because it's supposed to be better to spray on areas this bomb could't reach and also nothing! RAID didn't work at all!!! I'm moving on to the next product I guess.
I know it maybe very disappointed when you find a flea or a spider immediately after the application. But, I want to say, this doesn't equal to "not working". In fact I have never found a product that can kill all insects in one day. Just get a killer spray and give the poor insect a final shot. You will find the insect is in fact less active than usual.
I had a flea problem in apt for months and yes I have a cat. To get rid of fleas, you need to combine different measures. I put Advantage drop on my cat, bathed her every week with flea-killing shampoos, checked her everyday with a flea comb, and sprayed DE all over the carpet for days. Of course, I foggered the apt also. It works, because I did get less bite. But I know there still were some fleas over there. So I sprayed DE and planned to fogger again after two weeks. So do not rely on it alone, try different measures. I finally can sleep very well these days.
Previous tenants left us with a huge flea problem. I used the carpet spray along with the flea foggers and I have not seen a flea since! This stuff works and works quickly. Never go with anything besides Raid for your pest problems! I have always trusted Raid because I know it works!
This product works the bast for killing fleas in your house. I have tried other brands and they just don't do the job.
Some fleas still alive after a treatment have been given.
They didn't say just how long it takes to work, but other than that I'm ok with it.
This product is terrible, I used 2 packs ( 6 cans ) in my 1400 sq. foot home, and now the fleas are worse now than before, this product seems to have made the fleas angry. I wish I could get a refund, will never buy again !
great for ridding you of those nasty pest
I had to order more, because of the infestation in my basement. I did notice an improvement, though. Hopefully one more treatment will do the trick.
It worked wonderfully on doing away with the fleas our new little stray cat brought into our lives!! All is well again!! ;)
it killed the fleas.

Taiwan Bonds Decline for Fourth Day, Currency Rises on U.S. Data
Taiwan's government bonds fell for a fourth day and the local dollar strengthened after U.S. housing starts rose more than economists forecast, brightening the outlook for the island's exporters.
The MSCI Asia-Pacific Index of stocks rose by the most in almost three weeks after official data yesterday showed housing starts increased 9 percent to 685,000 in November, exceeding the highest estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. Taiwan's Financial Supervisory Commission said yesterday it will let Chinese banks buy stakes in local lenders and financial holding companies, starting Jan. 2.
"Yields are up today as there's some strong and positive news out there supporting stocks," said Albert Lee, a Taipei-based fixed-income trader at Cathay United Bank Co. "Yields have room to go up before the end of the year as investors scale back their rate-cut speculation."
The yield on Taiwan's 1.25 percent bonds due September 2021, the most-traded government securities, increased one basis point to 1.28 percent, prices from Gretai Securities Market show. Benchmark 10-year rates may rise to 1.3 percent by the end of the year, Lee forecast.
Taiwan will announce its 2012 debt issuance plan on Dec. 23. Eight of 10 economists surveyed by Bloomberg predict central bank Governor Perng Fain-nan and his board will leave interest rates unchanged at 1.875 percent when they review borrowing costs on Dec. 29. Two expect a cut to 1.750 percent.
The Taiwan dollar gained 0.2 percent to NT$30.285 against its U.S. counterpart, according to Taipei Forex Inc. It touched NT$30.210 earlier, the strongest level in a week.
The overnight money-market rate, which measures interbank funding availability, was little changed at 0.398 percent, according to a weighted average compiled by the Taiwan Interbank Money Center.

Well, MSL is pretty much bits and pieces constructed together as a snippet or script, where they correlate to one another. If you could post them on their own, I'm sure it'd be easier for beginners to learn how a code works at first glance easily, rather than reading into the code and dissecting one at a time. It's your scripts; it's up to you how you want to distribute them. Some folks here don't find it as a pain in the neck to post a bunch of snippets straight.
Not really. I used to script for my own purposes. I'm not much into scripting any more, so I though I'd throw a few pieces out there. I completely forgot about hawkee up until earlier tonight. There are a few other things I wrote that I'll be putting up when I gather their bits and pieces.
since you've requested it, I believe I have something lying around you might be interested inYou were waiting on people (other than napa182 of course) who are interested in your script so you can show it to them, weren't you? :P Besides, the expression of "what are you waiting for?" can be used as a figure of speech, which is what I did.
I'm not waiting. Evidently, you are, for this: http://www.hawkee.com/scripts/16903499/

Scottdale accepts tentative budget; no tax hike expected
Scottdale Borough residents will, more than likely, not see an increase in their property taxes next year.
A motion was passed at a special budget meeting this week to accept a tentative budget and advertise it.
Scottdale council went over the line items in the proposed 2013 budget that show total revenues at $1,721,747.81, total expenditures at $1,720,644.29, and a surplus of $1,103.52.
On the revenue side, major contributors are real estate taxes budgeted at $538,904; earned income taxes budgeted at $360,000; cable television franchise fee of $65,000; and refuse franchise fee of $134,500, which make up nearly three-quarters of the borough's revenues.
The police department is the borough's biggest expense, with a total department budget of $557,784.19, which includes salaries, overtime, medical benefits, supplies and equipment.
Another big expense is the budgeted $227,177.37 in the executive line item, which includes the borough manager's salary, secretary's salary as well as medical costs and other benefits, workmen's compensation, office supplies, travel expenses, insurance packages, advertising, phone and postage.
The highway maintenance portion also is a big ticket item in expenditures with $285,582.14 budgeted for such things as street crew salaries, overtime, vehicle repairs, supplies, gas, oil and grease, as well as Social Security, medicare and unemployment compensation.
The proposed budget has $130,000 in the paving line item since the borough did not do a paving project this year.
Under legal services, the borough budgeted $3,300 for its solicitor's retainer, approximately $24,000 for other legal fees and approximately $3,000 for ordinance codification.
Engineering costs are set at $6,800. One of the big ticket items under municipal buildings is a $55,000 line item for a new salt shed that will be built.
Borough Manager Angelo Pallone said he was happy with the whole budget process this year. "I think we got a good budget," he said. "I think we work well together."

46 reviews | 4.2 out of 5
Its a great small TV for a bedroom or kitchen. It has a good picture quality. Cons: None Concerning the TV itself though the sound is small like you would expect from a smaller device. Other thoughts:
Walmart.com is great but here are a few things they don't list in the specs for this TV: There are no audio out connections save a headphone jack. There is one (1) composite video (yellow) in and one set (red and white) of audio in connections. There is also one (1) component video in (red, green, blue) connection. The TV also has a VGA connection to connect a PC to it for use as a monitor and a PC audio in jack. This information about the connections is what I wish I could have known before buying this TV. After reading other reviews on small TV's on walmart.com realized that I would want to connect my TV to a set of external speakers to have better sound and was disapointed when I found out that this TV doesn't have audio out save a headphone jack. Overall however I'm pleased with the perchase and will probably still buy from walmart.com again. Hope this review helps!
I brought it for my daughter dorm room and it is the perfect size for a dorm room. I am very please with it and the price was great.
i got this tv from the walmart web site,the picture is dark,after some adjustments it still has a dark picture,the sound is fair,i returned it,this tv should have been good since it was an rca brand.very disapointed,don't buy.
Great TV just like all RCA tv's wouldn't buy any other!
Nice appearance, picture is pretty good, features within the software of the TV are good, plenty of "plug-ins" But I dont care for the sound regardless of how it is adjusted.....not terrble, just almost like talking in the shower with the tile bouncing off the sound waves.....Cant beat the Walmart price for sure......I bought a second one of these so it is at least 4 stars....
This is a great TV for the kids or guest best room. Picture quality is great and I have observed no problems in the week I owned this product.
I bought this item as a desktop companion to my 22" wall mounted monitor in my office. This unit provides the quality I needed as far as picture and sound quality for the close proximity. This unit is a great value for the price.
Product was returned for refund
As was expected from reading other reviews many Tv's smal units have poor sound. So I added on a powered speaker system. This is done with a 3.5 Plug set up. It shows as headphone plug in this is where you connect your suppplemental speakers.
Does not have RCA's for for sound but does for Inputs.
Ordered this on a Friday and had it on my doorstep Monday. Great service! the TV actually has a sharper picture than my 42" name brand TV. The sound quality for a small unit is fine. Great for office, bedroom or kitchen. Walmart has hit a home Run with this one. Even bought a second one for my son.
This TV is a great value. It has an easy set up and a great picture. Some reviewers have commented negatively about the sound. The sound is not the best - but it is acceptable for the price point. If you want high end sound, then buy a high end TV. I consider the sound average and got used to it quickly. Bottom Line: I'm very happy with it.
Screen is pixalated up close, only problem. Sound Is OKAY for a small hdtv.
I purchased this TV, but was very unhappy with it because I could only get the Spanish station on it, and when I call customer service to ask a question and explain the problem, the gentle told me he can care less as long I could get one station that all that matters because the tv works, they did not promise what station I would get or how many. So I returned the tv, because I was not happy with it.
I thought since it was a RCA TV it would be better than the Apex I tried. Was I wrong..... Sound was BAD; I could see the pixels dancing on the screen. It was worse than the Apex and that was pretty bad. The Apex went back and so did 2 RCA's. I purchased the Craig. It's still not perfect but it sure beats the other 2.
I plugged in the tv fopr the first time and lines were scrolling across the screen. Broken before I ever even got to use it.
Very nice little tv, and an exceptional value for the price....Free shipping made the deal really sweet for me....I am one very satisfied customer with this transaction, and would recommend this tv to anyone....Thanks, Wal Mart, for a great deal on a sweet little item!
Perfect for the kitchen, and is below the cupboards which was important. Ordered on a Monday at 6pm and was delivered on Wednesday. Perfect experience.
This tv went in the kitchen.Good picture and easy setup.Sound could be a little better.Overall ,Its OK.
I bought this item as a gift for my grandaughter she was pleased and so I was also great pic good sound
Although I did not purchase this mainly for use as a tv, I use it also for a security monitor for my security cameras on my property. It is so easy to switch back and forth from camera to reg. tv. The picture is great for both and the sound is excellent. Its just the right size to keep on my kitchen countertop.
