Thankful For More Than You KnowThanksgiving is the one holiday celebration that expresses our own personality. Legal holidays that commemorate national anniversaries and religious observances, have their origin in institutions, civic and religious design. While the ritual of 'Turkey Day' is rooted in the feast of the Pilgrims. Each of us view the intention of giving thanks from our unique perspective. Football may reign supreme on the tube, and cranberry may dress up the plate, but the real purpose of this day, represents our humble gratefulness for all that we have been blessed to receive.

Wall Street Capitalism: A Love Affair
February 20, 2011 by SARTRE · Leave a Comment
What once was a mercantile world has become a global playpen for moving hot money to squeeze out the highest return on investment. Replacing nation states with international capital is now sport. Undermining the sovereignty of countries by an elite club of financial manipulators is the purpose for the grand game. Illustrating this fact, David Callaway writes in Market Watch. "The sale of the New York Stock Exchange to Deutsche Boerse this week underscores the lack of historical antipathy for Germany, the world wars not withstanding, but also something more significant. The deal officially slammed the door on the surge of protectionist overreaction that sprang from the global financial crisis". The conquest of the NYSE by German economic dominance is ironic, since so much of the financial funding of the Third Reich came out of Wall and Broad Street.

Why Great Audio Quality Is Essential for Your Teleconference
How often have you had a teleconference where—because of audio-related issues—you had difficulty in conducting an important meeting? Or in some cases, not even being able to make a clear connection at all? Curtiss Singleton, Director of Sales for the Americas at Revolabs, Inc., discusses conferencing solutions that not only provide unmatched audio quality, but ones that also "cut the cord"—giving you the freedom to move around the workspace.
Revolabs focuses on Audio Quality
Doug Green, Publisher of Telecom Reseller, speaks with JP Carney, President and CEO of Revolabs, about the company, the importance of audio quality in UC, the compatibility of their products with various UC platforms, and their acquisition by Yamaha after one year.

I am really nervous, I have my first appt today with an ultrasound. With my last pregnancy I was really sick and just felt pregnant. With this one I do not really feel pregnant, I have a little bit of a sore back and have been having more frequent bowel movements every day, which is not normal for me. I am just worried that i am going to miscarry like my first. Is anyone else not really having a lot of symptoms for around 6 weeks?

text: Please Register or Log in to Remove this Advertisement! Thanks for the updates brother. Lynch and Jones are two guys who have a real good shot at making the roster because we have room for a 3rd RB and another LB if both can play STeams well. For a guy with Jones obvious talent to go undrafted there must be more than just the failed UA that concerned teams. Sounds to me like he's a little undisciplined in more ways than one so he's a gamble but maybe this is where the Herring connection helps. Sounds like Jones needs to be around vet players and a tough coach who makes him toe the line. They don't often get that in college and it's obvious in quite a few younger players. Besides that he could be a victim of the same things Vereen was. By moving around as much as he has maybe no one had as much tape on him as they would have liked but from what I saw the kid has a motor and he knows how to find the ball. We need a LB who shows up to play much harder than Greene did last year and maybe this is the guy who'll push him up or out. Lynch is just a natural football player and he has the right attitude about his career. Heisman votes rarely mean much in the NFL since half those guy are utter failures once they leave the systems that made them great in college and hit the pros. I'm just basing my opinions about him from what I saw on his game tapes. He knows what to do when he's carrying the football. He has great vision, instincts, a little bit of make you miss, and he's a very tough runner to bring down for his size. He plays much bigger than he is. There's a lot they can do with him if he sticks. Carey never looked as slow in his vids as he timed. He may not have long speed but once he gets moving he can keep his speed up while making cuts and he's another tough runner to tackle because of his height. The perfect compliment to Forte's style is a simple one cut north/south back who can get some tough yards inside and still has the ability to make people miss. Bush actually had a little of that too but so does Carey and he's a lot cheaper. This is gonna sound a little blasphemous but there's a but of Payton in Carey. Walter was never that fast either but he was a very productive back in college and a prolific scorer just like Carey has been. Whenever Walter needed to gain a couple of yards for a 1st down or make the end zone on a crucial goal line play he always found a way to do it. I see that in Carey as well. He's not as flashy as a Reggie Bush type but he's also far more dependable when you need a guy to get you some positive yardage. I think we added some nice offensive depth with Carey and Lynch and also protected ourselves against a serious injury or a major decline in Forte's production. These guys are both good investments. Jones will be as well if he matures as a player and realizes the NFL isn't Florida State and what goes there won't cut it in the NFL.

Sure, everyone has their romantic "type." Some prefer tall partners, others short; some seek out brunettes, others want blondes.
But some of these celebrities took their physical preferences in a partner to new extremes, rebounding with significant others who are the mirror images of their ex-spouses.
From Hugh Hefner's buxom blondes to Marilyn Manson's pin-up princesses, click through the slides below and judge for yourself.
Notorious lothario Hugh Hefner is known for his entourage of blonde, busty beauties. And if one thing can be said about the original playboy's relationship history, it's that he has a definite type. After splitting with second-wife Kimberly Conrad (pictured on the left) in 2009, he moved on with multiple look-a-likes, including Kristina Shannon and Bridget Marquardt (pictured on the right). Can you spot the similarities?
After his 2005 divorce from actress Halle Berry (left), musician Eric Benet re-bounded with model Manuela Testolini (right), who bears a striking resemblance to Berry.
Before her relationship with Marilyn Manson, Evan Rachel Wood (right) epitomized the California beach blonde. But after dating rocker Marilyn Manson, her style evolved....to resemble that of Manson's ex-wife, burlesque queen Dita Von Teese (left).
Rod Stewart's rebound from second wife Rachel Hunter (left) makes us wonder: did he ever really recover from their split? After Hunter and Stewart divorced in 2006, the popular musician began dating Penny Lancaster (right) and married her in 2007. Both Hunter and Lancaster are blonde ex-models who clearly share an affinity for the rock and roll lifestyle.
After Hulk Hogan's November 2008 split from ex-wife Linda Claridge (left), he began dating look-a-like Jennifer McDaniel (right). The bleach-blonde couple eventually wed in December 2010.

text: This was sent to me buy my sister in Arizona. How much truth is in it I do not know but maybe and Aussie on the board does. Oz. Start of e-mail Here's a thought to warm some of your hearts... From: Ed Chenel, A police officer in Australia Hi Yanks, I thought you all would like to see the real figures from Down Under. It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced by a new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by our own government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. First year results are now in: Australia-wide, homicides are up 6.2 percent, Australia-wide, assaults are up 9.6 percent ; Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)! In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent. (Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not and criminals still possess their guns!) While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months, since the criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed. There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the elderly, while the resident is at home. Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in "successfully ridding Australian society of guns." You won't see this on the American evening news or hear your governor or members of the State Assembly disseminating this information The Australian experience speaks for itself. Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws affect only the law-abiding citizens. Take note Americans, before it's too late! The real reason why we have an admendment that is our right to bare arms in our Constitution of the United States, and the reason it should stay as one of our rights. FORWARD TO EVERYONE ON YOUR EMAIL LIST. ( I JUST DID!!) DON'T BE A MEMBER OF THE SILENT MAJORITY. BE ONE OF THE VOCAL MINORITY WHO WON'T LET THIS HAPPEN IN THE U.S.A End of e-mail

If Randy Howell and Brent Chapman would finish the Ramada Championship first-and-second on Sunday, like they're ranked currently according to BASSTrakk, it would be a fitting end to the Elite Series regular season. These two best friends were ranked near the top of the Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Angler of the Year standings throughout the first half of the season.
Then Howell got a bad case of "the bends." If you're a scuba diver, or old enough to remember Lloyd Bridges starring in the TV series Sea Hunt, you know "the bends" is a decompression sickness that occurs after surfacing too quickly.
But Howell's illness was different, it was "the Toledo Bends." As is always the case, the smile never left his face Thursday as Howell explained his most painful memory of the season, a 75th-place finish at Toledo Bend that opened the second half of the season.
"That's the one I'd like to have back," Howell said. "I just never got on anything down there."
That's when the big split between Howell and Chapman occurred in the AOY race, as Chapman won at Toledo Bend with a four-day total of 83-9.
Simply by comparing the seasons of those two guys, you can see the limit of mistakes permitted in order to win Angler of the Year: One.
Chapman's only finish lower than 27th (at Green Bay) was his bomb at Douglas Lake, where he finished 68th.
Howell had two: 75th at Toledo Bend and 58th at Green Bay. He had some mechanical issues at Green Bay, so he can forgive himself for that one. But not those two days in Texas where he managed a total of only
18 pounds while Chapman whacked 'em, that one left a bruise.
"I'd be right in the hunt if I'd just finished in the top 40 at Toledo Bend," Howell said Thursday, smiling all the while.
Seigo Saito, Mike Fox and I are still on the water, capturing images and soaking up the New York sunshine. We've returned to check on Todd Faircloth, just in time to see him cull a bass. He told us he has about 13 1/2 pounds today. If that estimate is correct, he should have nearly 28 pounds all told, counting yesterday's 14-5 limit. That should push him up into the Top 10, assuming BassTrakk has accounted for all the important catches. As Steve Bowman has pointed out, though, only 50 of the competitors' Marshals are equipped with the reporting units, and we are in the dark about some of the leaders from yesterday.
Faircloth is out in front of Bullhead Bay, where the water depth drops from 12 or so feet down to about 17. We're sitting over 17, and I assume he's at the edge, where bass tend to hang out. All his fish are smallies. We think he's throwing a drop shot rig around the drop, although it's impossible to confirm that from a distance.
He's had mixed success on Oneida. He was 23rd with 41-10 in 2009 but 93rd in 2008, the year he was leading the Toyota Tundra Angler of the Race going into the tournament. That enabled Kevin VanDam to take over the top spot and claim the first of his four AOY titles in a row.
Faircloth could redeem that forgettable experience here this year, but Brent Chapman has demonstrated in two days of fishing that he's not about to crash and burn for lack of effort. Still, the AOY race appears to be tightening. At least, it probably won't be decided today.
Brent Chapman just caught his sixth fish. It was close enough in size to his others that he stopped and weighed all of them. He ended up tossing back the fish he had just caught. But in the process he ended up getting a more accurate account of his total weight, at least according to his scale. That was 14 1/2 pounds, which puts him in great shape for this tournament and in a very strong position for Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Angler of the Year.
Things have slowed considerably for Randy Howell, whom BassTrakk has holding the lead right now with 32-2. We've been dogging him from a distance for the past 20 minutes, and we've seen him catch a throwback. He's out in open water, as most pros are this time of day, chunking a topwater plug across unseen grassbeds. He told us his best period was from 9 to 10:30 this morning, "but it's slow now." He's hoping his noisy topwater plug will wake up whatever's down there.
Howell has plenty of company in this area, and some of them top contenders on Oneida. Clark Reehm of Shreveport, La., who was fourth after Day 1 with 15-15, and J Todd Tucker of Moultrie, Ga., who was third with 16-6, are just 150 yards to the north of Howell. All are facing and casting downwind. Just this moment, Reehm and Tucker jumped behind the consoles of their boats and raced south, pulling even with Howell before shutting down their engines. The two of them are a long cast apart now -- apparently both spotted the same bunch of fish schooling on the surface and raced to get in a few casts before the fish sounded. Neither hooked up in the flurry, best I could tell.
No one was more shocked than Mike Iaconelli himself when he caught a bag weighing 20 pounds, 3 ounces on Day One of the Ramada Championship. It was totally unexpected, he said, after his three days of practice produced only "seven bites the first day, five the second and then three or four." A bad start seemed headed farther downhill.
But Thursday was "one of those magic days," Iaconelli noted. A school of smallmouth burst to the surface near his boat early in the day, allowing him to complete a limit, then go hunt for largemouth.
It's not like Iaconelli hasn't done this before at Oneida. In 2008, he caught 20-1 on Day Two, which rocketed him from 40th place to first.
It's believed Iaconelli is the only angler to catch a 20-pound bag on Oneida in the now four-plus Elite Series events here since 2006, and he's done it twice.
But those "magic days" are just that — uncommon occurrences. Iaconelli's four-day totals from 2008, when he finished third, were as follows: 12-11, 20-1, 14-4 and 12-4.
It looks now like he'd give anything for one of those 12-pound bags today.
Our boat driver Brian Eisch brought along his son today, Isaac. Isaac is getting ready to start 9th grade at Sandy Creek High School, 30 miles north of Syracuse. He's also a member of the Good Ole Boys Jr. bass fishing club.
Here he gives his dad, a veteran of Afghanistan and a Purple Heart recipient, an on the water massage.
Brent Chapman's fifth fish may have been a "big relief" to him, but for those chasing him to the Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Angler of the Year title, that could be the nail in the coffin.
Mathematically, he can still be caught: Faircloth would have to turn up the heat and Chapman would probably need to zero tomorrow. The latter is unrealistic. And he still has the rest of the day to add to his weight.
Stranger things have happened, though; for example, Ike's dream day and today's day for example. So you can't say "it's completely over."
With Chapman apparently hanging on, his best move of the season might have been sticking to the river at Green Bay, rather than mixing it up on the bay with the rest of the folks. His performance there, along with stumbles by Faircloth and Howell, opened up the gap that is allowing him to breath just a little easier at this moment.
Brent Chapman just pulled in keeper number five. A 2 1/4-pound smallie. We're estimating that gives him 13 1/4 pounds in the livewell.
After catching his 5th keeper Chapman said, "That's a big relief." He went on to say that gives him a 14-pound average for the first two days which he felt good about.
"My dad was nice enough to make it right for me last night," said Chapman, referring to his lure. "You don't want them to look pretty. So he roughed it up for me."
The wind has died down. "This is perfect right here, with a nice ripple on the water," he said.
We were keeping track of the hourly BASSTrakk totals for awhile
yesterday, but the numbers seemed to lose significance as the morning
went on, so we left that line of thought.
Bad idea. Should have stuck with it. Thanks to Ryan Watkins, we've
been able to put together some numbers from all the information
gathered yesterday and so far today. Again, remember only the top 50
AOY points leaders have BASSTrakk these first two days, so there are
47 other anglers out there.
Thursday, the noon hour was pretty strong, and the best hour of the
day - both in numbers and total weight - was 2 p.m. to 3 p.m., which
barely edged 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.
Here are the hourly totals from yesterday:
|# Bass
|7-8 a.m.
|8-9 a.m.
|9-10 a.m.
|10-11 a.m.
|11 a.m. - noon
|noon- 1 p.m.
|1- 2 p.m.
|2-3 p.m.
|3-4 p.m.
So far today:
|# Bass
|Lbs. - Oz.
|7-8 a.m.
|8-9 a.m.
|9-10 a.m.
When you see hourly variations like that, it's only natural to think
of Solunar charts for the Syracuse area. But we're essentially in that
half-moon phase now, when the Solunar tables aren't as meaningful as
they are nearer the full moon and new moon phases.
But here's what they show:
- Thursday there was a major period that barely extended into
tournament hours, from 5:44 a.m. until 7:46 a.m.
- Thursday's minor period during tourney time was 1:17 p.m. to 2:17 p.m.
- Friday's major period was 6:44 a.m. to 8:44 a.m.
- There's a minor period from 2:24 to 3:24 this afternoon.
My boatmate, Seigo Saito, whose work graces the pages of Bassmaster Magazine as well as bassmaster.com, does a good bit of freelance work for magazines in his home country of Japan, so it wasn't a surprise that he wanted to detour from tracking the leaders at Oneida to snap a few photos of his compatriot, Morizo Shimizu. Morizo just put his third fish in the boat for the morning.
Seigo had told Morizo that I was in the boat -- all I understood of the exchange in Japanese were the words, "Bassmaster magazine." He responded, "Oh, my God. I need to catch a big one now to show him what I can do." Three seconds later, he set the hook and hauled in a 1 1/2-pounder. It wasn't the big one he wanted -- what he calls a "big mama" in his broken English -- but I was definitely impressed with the timing. Seigo says Morizo is the Mike Iaconelli of Japan, having parlayed his fame from tournaments in the United States into a television show, a slew of instructional DVDs and lucrative sponsorships. One of his sponsors, United Airlines, enables him to make frequent trips back to Japan. I am amazed at how the Japanese contingent has done so well in adjusting to our culture when few of them had any working knowledge of English. My hat's off to them.

I bought the Tena Comfort Pants because I thought they would give added protection when wearing pads. However, this product is very disappointing..It is a very thin cloth that can get runs in the material just like nylon stockings and it obviously is not strong enough to hold pads all day long. I use them at night with my cloth pads that I have had made for me. It works ok for that. However, The pants would never replace proper fitting underwear that has built in padding inside the crotch area. If a person needs proper protection they need to order proper underwear made for that purpose.. Actually I have no idea why they were made and would appreciate learning the logical reasons for them..There must be a good explanation for them but I have no clue what it is.

I just updated the TC 18.104.22.16803 after having not used TC for a while. I now notice that the UI seems extremely sluggish. Every action takes about 4 - 5 seconds. For instance, if I double-click on task, there's about a 5-second delay before the task window opens. Same thing opening Preferences, etc... The database only contains a single task.
Brad Konia
After rebooting my computer, the speed seems better. It's still a little sluggish, but now only about a 1-second delay.
Jérome Laheurte
Strange; didn't just restarting Task Coach work ? I don't have any outstanding performance problem but I'm not using Windows...
Brad Konia
No, restarting TC didn't help. I had to reboot the computer.

North Korea May Have Restarted Nuclear Reactor at Yongbyon
North Korea may have restarted a nuclear reactor capable of producing enough plutonium to make one atomic bomb every year, a U.S. research institute said.
Satellite imagery taken Aug. 31 shows steam rising from a building containing turbines and generators powered by the 5-megawatt reactor at Yongbyon, North Korea's main nuclear complex, the U.S.-Korea Institute at Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies said today in an e-mail.
North Korea said on April 2 it would restart all facilities at Yongbyon, including the reactor mothballed under a six-nation disarmament deal in 2007, for producing energy and "bolstering up the nuclear armed force both in quality and quantity." South Korea's National Intelligence Service declined to confirm the institute's findings today.
"North Korea now appears to have put the reactor into operation," the institute said in the e-mailed analysis. The reactor "is capable of producing six kilograms (13.2 pounds) of plutonium a year that can be used by Pyongyang to slowly increase the size of its nuclear weapons stockpile."
Signs of activity at the Yongbyon site, north of the capital Pyongyang, add urgency to efforts to stop the North from advancing its nuclear weapons programs. In February, North Korea conducted its third nuclear test, prompting the United Nations to tighten sanctions against the country.
"Would there be smoke without fire?" South Korean Defense Ministry spokesman Kim Min Seok said at a briefing today in Seoul, when asked about the satellite imagery."Let's leave it at that."
Testing Reactor
The steam spotted at the Yongbyon site indicates the "North Koreans are testing the reactor before operations can go into full swing," No Hui Cheon, a professor of nuclear science at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology in Daejeon, south of Seoul, said by phone today. "If steam comes out steadily, that's a sign of full operation."
International talks aimed at dismantling the North's nuclear arms programs through aid haven't been held since late 2008. Glyn Davies, the U.S. special representative for North Korea, on Sept. 10 ruled out a quick resumption of the six-party talks unless the North showed signs of reversing its nuclear programs. The talks also involve South Korea, China, Russia and Japan.
Restarting Yongbyon would be "serious" and a "misstep," Davies told reporters in Tokyo today.
'Serious Concern'
In December last year, the North launched a long-range rocket that the U.S. and South Korea called a ballistic missile. Earlier this year, North Korea threatened nuclear strikes against the U.S. and South Korea in retaliation for the allies' annual joint military drills.
"Although the latest news is a worrying development, it remains unclear whether the country can deliver its nuclear weapons via missiles," Rebecca Jackson-Young, North Korea analyst at The Economist Intelligence Unit, said in an e-mail.
Kim Jong Un's regime vowed earlier this year to pursue the twin goals of economic and nuclear development. South Korean President Park Geun Hye dismissed the policy as unrealistic in a speech to the U.S. Congress in May.
The Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security said in early August that North Korea may have doubled the size of its uranium-enrichment facility at Yongbyon, deepening international concern about a second source of fuel besides plutonium to build weapons. North Korea said its uranium enrichment was for producing energy.
The developments at Yongbyon coincide with recent signs of improving relations between the two Koreas. North Korea last month agreed to restart its industrial complex jointly run with South Korea and to resume reunions of families separated by the 1950-53 Korean War.

Have a Seat – Let Us Tell You All About Bar Stools
Now that you have created the perfect bar – one that's great for entertaining party guests, enjoying a meal with family, or just chilling with friends – you'll need the ideal stools to complete the package. From swiveling to stationary, seat height to adjustable footrests, and metal versus wood construction, these are all important aspects to consider.
It's all part of the fun when decorating your home's entertainment area, and to help you in this endeavor we've put together a handy guide.
Size – with Bar Stools, It Matters
Perhaps the most important part of purchasing a bar stool is in the height. You might have found the coolest color and the most appealing fabric, but if the seat is too short or too tall for your bar, then the stools won't be very practical, and no one will be comfortable sitting in them.
The Tall and Short of It
If your stools are too tall, your family and friends might bonk their knees when they sit down. And that's not good. Either is a stool that's too short. You don't want your guests to feel like they're looking up at the bar.
Bar stools average a 30-inch seat height. This is an important measurement to remember, especially when it's easy to confuse a bar stool with a counter stool. Counter stools are typically shorter, with an average height of 26 inches. Just remember, bars are higher than counters, and therefore bar stools are taller; they can go up to 34 inches for tall models.
Give Me Some Space
We all like to have a little elbow room, right? So when planning your purchase, be sure you calculate the amount of space you will need between each seat. It's such an important detail that there is even an industry standard. The suggestion is to allow for 26 to 30 inches of space between each stool. That way, everyone is comfy and can enjoy a drink or meal without spilling it on the person next to them.
Wood vs. Metal
There are two main materials to consider here: wood and metal – two different materials that present two different vibes in your bar area. Wood, especially with leather upholstery, is perfect for rooms with a darker decor, such as a "man cave" type of setting. Bar stools made of lighter wood, on the other hand, are ideal for a breakfast bar, or kitchen bar, in a bright, sunny room.
Metal makes a good choice, too, when you need versatility. They go well with all sorts of home decor, and are particularly ideal in a contemporary eating or entertaining area. In addition, they are more adjustable, which is nice when you have friends and family who come in assorted sizes.
Whether you go with metal or wood, you also have to decide between a swiveling or non-swiveling model. Swiveling styles make it easier for everyone to turn to their left or right when chatting. (Plus, they're fun to spin around in when no one is looking!)
Get a Lift
One more thing to look out for when shopping for metal bar stools is a covered piston. Be sure that the hydraulics or gas lifts are covered. No need to send guests home with greasy pants. Make sure that the pistons have a sufficient sleeve over them for protection.
Seat Upholstery
After you've picked the right height, the right construction, and taken into account the best spacing for your stools, it's time to look at the seat – the place where you take the proverbial load off. For wood styles that aren't upholstered you have the option of adding cushions, and since there are many designs from which to choose, it's easy to match the cushions to your decor.
If the stool comes upholstered, it's always good to have upholstery that's easy to clean and maintain. Materials like microfiber, polyester, vinyl, and leather are more stain-resistant and durable.
So there you have it. Stoolology – the science of bar stools. Have fun shopping for your perfect match!

NEW YORK (AP) - People eager to climb to the Statue of Liberty's
crown can start calling Saturday for reservations.
The crown is set to open July 4 after being closed since shortly
after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
The National Park Service says would-be visitors can seek
reservations through the Web site statuecruises.com or by calling
877-523-9849 beginning Saturday at 10 a.m. EDT. It says
reservations will be first come, first served.
Crown tickets will cost $3 above the regular Liberty and Ellis
islands admission charge, which is $12 for adults. Each customer
can reserve up to four tickets and make only one reservation every
six months.
For safety reasons, only 30 people per hour will be allowed up
the narrow steps leading to the crown.
The statue's base, pedestal and outdoor observation deck
reopened in 2004.

Hunt resigns from Carlynton School Board
The Carlynton School Board is looking for someone to fill a vacancy after member Carl Hunt resigned last week, effective July 31.
Hunt resigned at the July 14 board meeting. He said he will be moving out of the district.
"Obviously, this was something unforeseen last year, when I ran for office," he said.
Hunt had been on the board since he was sworn in in January after winning the seat in the November general election. Four candidates ran and were elected to fill four open seats.
Hunt said he has enjoyed his time on the school board.
"Working with (Superintendent Gary Peiffer) and the rest of the school board has been a wonderful experience," he said. "They're an extremely professional group of people. They're truly looking after the best interests of the district."
Board President David Roussos said Hunt was a very involved parent and community member prior to his board tenure.
"Really, his time on the board was just his latest commitment to the district," Roussos said. "In a short time, he's really been a very, very critical part of what we've been doing."
He invited any interested residents to apply by July 31. Applicants should submit a letter of application that includes qualifications and the reasons for their interest. A resume is requested but not required.
Applicants must be registered to vote and have lived in the district for at least one year as of Aug. 4. Interviews will be held Aug. 4. Send applications to Roussos at Carlynton School District, 435 Kings Highway, Carnegie, PA 15106.

LUCKNOW: While the tussle in the BJP over the Lok Sabha seat for LK Advani spilled forth in the public, differences over candidate selection have triggered loud voices of discontent in the party's Uttar Pradesh unit.
Right around the time BJP chief Rajnath Singh was inducting Congress turncoat Jagdambika Pal into the party in New Delhi on Wednesday, BJP workers were protesting against his entry at the state office headquarters in Lucknow. BJP workers from Doomariyaganj, the seat represented by Pal as a Congress MP, had opposed his induction fearing that the claim of loyal BJP leaders would be overlooked in favour of Pal. Their fears came true, as the list of candidates declared late evening had Pal's name against Doomariyaganj.

Great Product
I use this for swimming laps in a lightly heated pool and it is wonderful. It does not bind and keeps me just the right temperature; not too hot. I might could have gotten by with a ML but that was not available. I am 5' 10"/ 170 and the Large fits me well with a little room in the underarms. It is very easy to get on and off and does not inhibit my swimming strokes in any way. I highly recommend it.

Ever see something cool on ThinkGeek and go "Ooh, I want one!" only to realize that you would need a credit card, you'd pay shipping fees, and you'd probably end up having to pay tax so you end up not buying anything at all. A lot of the stuff I would love to own I found on ThinkGeek.com, but due to the restrictions, I would only be able to get my fill of geeky stuff if it was locally available somehow or if a relative from the States was coming home.
Enter Abubot.ph. A new local online store, Abubot.ph, brings the ThinkGeek experience to our shores! Their prices are in pesos, they accept local credit cards, PayPal, bank deposit, and Western Union Money Transfer. They currently ship to Philippine addresses only, and their rates are reasonable. Of course, ThinkGeek still has more stuff, but that's because Abubot hasn't really hit its stride yet. It's up to us to make that happen.
Check out some stuff that they have that would be abso-freakin-lutely perfect for a geeky Christmas.

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - With an impending hurricane expected to pound the East Coast over the next few days, it was the Atlanta Falcons who stormed out of the gate on Sunday.
Matt Ryan tossed touchdown passes on Atlanta's first three possessions in the Falcons' 30-17 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles and new defensive coordinator Todd Bowles.
The Falcons remain as the NFL's lone unbeaten team, while Philadelphia lost its first game coming off a bye week during the Andy Reid era. Reid had been 13-0 in his career coming off the idle week.
"That was an embarrassing performance," Reid said. "I'm stating the obvious. We need to get better. I need to do a better job. This is fixable. We have the talent."
Ryan, who was 17-of-20 for 197 yards in the opening 30 minutes, finished the day with 262 yards on 22-of-29 efficiency for the Falcons (7-0), who are off to their best start in franchise history.
Julio Jones had five receptions for 123 yards and a touchdown, while Asante Samuel, who made his return to Philadelphia, had two passes defended and no tackles in the win.
"We're 7-0 over here baby," Samuel said. "If I was over there now, they have to go to work."
Samuel recorded 25 interceptions and went to three Pro Bowls in four years with the Eagles. He was traded to the Falcons for a seventh-round pick in April.
"I love the fans," Samuel said of his return. "They can boo me. They can cheer for me. Doesn't do anything but add fuel to the fire."
Atlanta finished 7-of-13 on third down against the Eagles, who were third in the NFL (29 percent) in third-down defense coming in.
Michael Vick, who didn't turn the ball over, was 21-of-35 for 191 yards and a score in the setback.
"Whatever decision coach makes, I support it," Vick said when asked about the Eagles possibly making a quarterback change. "I know I'm giving it everything I have when I'm out there."
LeSean McCoy had a rushing and receiving score for Philadelphia (3-4), which fired Juan Castillo as defensive coordinator two days after the Eagles blew a 10-point lead late in the fourth quarter and dropped a 26-23 overtime decision against Detroit two weeks ago.
It was Philadelphia's second blown fourth-quarter lead in as many weeks.
Castillo came under fire last year in his first season in charge of the defense after 13 years as the Eagles' offensive line coach. Reid stuck with Castillo despite widespread speculation of a potential change in the wake of an 8-8 season.
Bowles, meanwhile, was in his first season as Philadelphia's secondary coach. He joined the team in January after spending four years with the Miami Dolphins, including the final three games of the 2011 campaign as interim head coach.
The switch, however, didn't pay off initially.
Castillo's defense had allowed 20.8 points per game over six contests. The Falcons tallied 21 points over the first 24 minutes of the game.
Atlanta outgained the Eagles, 252-94 in the first half.
The Falcons converted five third downs during their methodical 16-play, 80- yard opening drive.
A holding call on defensive end Jason Babin on a 3rd-and-10 kept the trek alive and Ryan found a wide-open Drew Davis in the back right corner of the end zone to get Atlanta on the board.
