I grew up in a rural setting, but for the past 7 years I've been enjoying urban living. Skittles just a walk away:) I work full time as a caregiver for people with disabilities. Although my job doesn't define me, one can infer a fair amount from it. I believe i am a patient and considerate person. I have always had a passion for psychology and use it to help people when appropriate. I'm a chill Irishman trying to go to as many festivals and shows as possible while establishing myself as a young professional.

My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
I'm really proud and excited about graduating from KU(BA), but at the same time anxious about upcoming GRE exams and grad school. School or the possibility of working/interning/fellowship, getting experience. Someday I would like to work inside the American prison system, in which i would i apply my psychological research to create programs that reduce recidivism and costs. For now, I am working full time and saving money for a graduate program. Oh, and loving Lawrence.
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.

I spend a lot of time thinking about
Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.
Permaculture and progression of renewable/sustainable energy. Earthship homes are AMAZING. Exploring old abandoned buildings and ghost-towns. The past and emerging roles of prison systems. GITMO. Creatures with unusual phenotypes as a result of filling highly specific niches (e.g. moles & Anglerfish). Octopuses have THREE hearts and jellyfish have neither a heart nor a nervous system, wtf nature you're awesome. How neat it is to have a giant prefrontal cortex that analyzes itself constantly. Interpreting dreams. 3d printing, it is to thank for a new windpipe that saved a baby about to die! How to balance wealth and stress, i specifically ponder how much education i will need in order to live a comfortable life without becoming a slave to a corporation, making sure my tie doesn't turn into a noose. Actually learning to tie a tie. I've watched a ton of youtube videos and i still don't get it. why don't i get it.. it always comes out ridiculous. Music is also a focus, I spend a fair amount of time seeking out new artists every day. I especially like EDM, chillstep, electro soul, trap, ambient/trance, blues, OLD country(Cash, Nelson, Williams Sr.)..
On a typical Friday night I am
Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?
Depends on what specials are going on. If there's a cool show or drink deal it's likely i'm taking advantage of that, but otherwise chilling with friends.
The most private thing I'm willing to admit
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
I lost my first baby teeth, the front two, scrapping unsuccessfully outside of a wedding. They were lost in the grass and despite searching for what felt like forever i was unable to find them and consequently was unable to submit them to the tooth fairy.. fists were shaken toward the heavens. I was left with a mouth full of blood and no money on the way.. needless to say it was a tense car ride home. I looked like a rabbit for years to follow.
You should message me if
Offer a few tips to help matches win you over.
I seem like your type, or if you want to know more about me. That goes for faults too, this website asks questions that set me up to seem perfect, but i'm not. Ask me about math and i will tell you a tale of struggle. I see it this way, if we seem to click while messaging we can meet up and go for a walk with my dog. I'm guessing if you're messaging me, you live in Lawrence, otherwise you must like my profile a LOT.hah The cool thing about walking my dog for a "first date" is 1) Otis has a blast 2) There are no worries of food stuck in teeth and/or feelings of debt, if you believe there is no potential future between us you could ideally say i don't think we're compatible and we'd go our separate ways. I'm new to online dating so forgive me if i'm over-thinking the process.

Thanks for all the positive comments everyone. A few more thoughts on the RB67. When I decided to move into MF, I really wanted something that was different than an rangefinder. I was specifically looking to shoot with something that had a WLF (versus a viewfinder) to mimic the process I'm learning to enjoy with the field camera. I also find myself attracted to the 4x5 and 6x7 aspect ratios and to a lesser extent 6x6. I am always cropping my 35mm to a more square format. It was also important that I have easy access to all the system pieces and repairs if necessary. I preferred a camera that needed no batteries and had a solid reputation for reliability and longevity. That really narrowed down my search to Mamiya TLR, Mamiya RB/RZ, Bronica, Pentax 67, and Hasselblad. While everyone may have a favorite, all of these camera systems are capable of producing world class professional results. In other words, regardless of the system, the limiting factor is the equipment between my ears. For me, the final decision came down to price. I know that sounds lame, but the whole system with a 50, 90, and 140 lens, two 120 backs, one 120/220 6x8 back, and a polaroid back cost $800.
Now that I've had it a few months, I've learned a few things. It is capable of taking amazing photos. And not just super sharp, highly saturated velvia slides. It really works well for polaroids. In fact, I have enjoyed shooting with the polaroid back so much, I purchased a Land 250 and sent it to Jason Wolffe to refurbish. But it is also heavy and it is no replacement for large format. In fact, I often find myself thinking "why didn't I just use my Shen Hao for this shot?". Well the reason is I can get my 120 film done cheap and local with excellent results. Getting my 4x5 film developed is a pain in the ass and expensive. But should I be thinking this? I never have that feeling when I'm shooting my F100. Usually I'm thinking "why can't every camera be this awesome!" I guess bottom line is that while I am enjoying the learning and I am making the best photos of my life, I don't know if the RB67 is going to win me over long term. I guess only time will tell, but I do know this - I just ordered a bunch of 4x5 film.

I am getting ready to take the programmer
Jan. 3rd. I have been using JPrep, the roundup and Marcus's mock test to this point and usually score between 75-85 on a fairly regular basis. Since Im a week away I bought the JWhiz and JQPlus tests. To my horror I got a 53 on JQPlus and a 35 on JWhiz......The questions on the JWhiz seem to be really intricate and really had me scratching my head saying "Why in the heck would anyone ever do that?" Ive got a week but this has kind of scared me.....Is there anyone else out there that has seen these two tests or taken them.....should I freak now or keep plugging along?

I recently bought both JWhiz and JQ+ before taking my exam. Before I took the exam I was averaging 96% on JWhiz and 89% on JQ+. You should try to work through all the exams if you have time (One week may not be enough).Once you are consistently scoring in the 80's, you will be ready for the test.

Hello DC,
I passed the SCJP2 exam last week with 86%. I had a few questions that were very similar to questions asked in JQPlus. The first time I took a JQPlus practice test I scored 52% but I stuck with it until I was consistently getting post 85% in the random tests. The trick is to use it to identify and eliminate your weak points.
I think Marcus tests are good for basic language fundamentals but for Threads, IO, Inner Classes, AWT, you need testing tools that are more rigorous. Try and do the more challenging mock tests such as JTips, Guoqiao Sun, Khalid Mughal, Bill Brogden, and
along with JQPlus they will really sharpen you up for the actual exam.
As you approach your examination date do the simpler tests to boost our confidence i.e. JavaPrepare, Marcus Green 1/2/3, JCETs etc.
I agree. Here's the link:

text: [SOLVED] Interference of Sound Waves Two loudspeakers, A and B, are driven by the same amplifier and emit sinusoidal waves in phase. The frequency of the waves emitted by each speaker is 172 Hz. You are 8.00 m from speaker A. Take the speed of sound in air to be 344 m/s. What is the closest you can be to speaker B and be at a point of destructive interference? __________ I am having the hardest time trying to visualize the problem. I know that destructive interference occurs when the difference in path lengths traveled by sound waves is a half integer number of wavelengths. So I need to know the wavelength of the sound which is just 2m. I also know that in general if d_a and d_b are paths traveled by two waves of equal frequency that are originally emitted in phase, the condition for destructive interference is d_a-d_b=n(wavelength)/2 where wavelength is what I calculated it to be (2m) and n=any nonzero odd integer. I think I need to know what the value of n is that corresponds to the shortest distance d_b to solve my prob. (is d_a=8m? then what is d_b?) I'm going around in circles and getting nowhere. Please help!

Does it seem like everyone you know these days is a self-confessed Foodie? Satisfying the culinary expectations of the modern wedding guest can be little bit intimidating. But we have some good news: Current trends in wedding cuisine emphasize the local and the interesting (as opposed to the foreign and the fancy.)
Often called the "Heart of the Arts" by locals, Midtown Atlanta is home to a wealth of cultural attractions (museums, the symphony, theaters) as well as some of the city's most iconic and historic buildings. With so much to offer, it's an exciting place to host a wedding. Here are 10 venues that will help you tap into the area's energetic vibe (listed in no particular order).
If an outdoor ceremony or reception is at the top of your wedding "must have" list, Atlanta offers a wide range of options.From mansions and private estates to historic landmarks and restaurants, here are some of the best places in and around the city for an al fresco celebration.
Established almost 200 years ago, Atlanta is home to quite a few mansions that reflect its history. And fortunately for couples who want to experience the charmed lifestyle of a bygone era, many of them are available for weddings. Here's a selection of beautifully preserved venues where you can get a delicious taste of the past.
If your wedding fantasy has you getting married at a fairytale place, then you should definitely check out this selection of Boston Area mansions, estates and manor houses. They're all within a short drive from Boston, and most give you exclusive use of the property during your event so you can have your own private domain for a day!
Waterfront weddings offer something extra—a refreshing tang in the air…expansive harbor, river, or cityscape views…in some cases even the opportunity to leave terra firma altogether and host your celebration afloat. Boston Harbor and the Charles River are home to many wedding venues that put you close to or on the water, click here to see a selection worth exploring.
From historic landmarks to soaring skyscrapers, Boston offers a unique mix of past and present. It's a dynamic waterfront city with world-class museums, parks, gardens, dining, shopping—and wedding venues. Read more…
Your rehearsal dinner is an opportunity to bring close friends and family together in a more informal way than during your wedding, and an Italian Restaurant can provide the perfect combination of ambiance and cuisine. The setting is often relaxed, and dishes can be served family style. Plus, Italian food is so popular it's easy to include menu items that will satisfy all your guests. Check out these Bay Area Italian restaurants.

Kara. Thought I was bad ass in my crafted purples that I had spent hours upon hours farming waters for.
Kara. Thought I was bad ass in my crafted purples that I had spent hours upon hours farming waters for.
Have A Nice Day (HVND)
EQ - Plane of Fear, Sometime in 2000 with ~80 other semi clueless saps. Wipe for several hours at zone in and waited another 5 hours in order to get my corpse with all my gear.
WoW - Strat and UBRS and then ZG, first "real" boss I ever killed was the Raptor boss.
Kara I see here alot, best raid ever imo. That was the first raid I ever led.
First raid entered? Molten Core.
First raid done at max level? Kara.
Got carried through MC at level 50 while leveling during early BC by some bored friends farming TF and Sulfuras.
Eventually caught up and a little geared, at least enough to do a few bosses in Kara, up to Shade, where we wiped for something like 4 hours.
Good times.
Main - My Youtube Channel - Useful PvP Items - Hunter Pet Spreadsheet - Music and Stuff
Most favorite raid ever was ZA tho.!
My first raid was kara, i got totally carried and was boosted to some tier, loved it
First raid in WoW? LBRS. First raid ever? Lady Vox.
First real raiding was in Bastion of Twilight as current content since I entered the game in late WotLK. Back when Windrunner Horde still had raiders they gladly took me in to fill their slot yet I had no exp at all. Sure we only killed Halfus but it was a really good experience for first-time raiding, using ventrilo, master looter and all!
Baradin Hold's Argaloth don't count personally
Karazhan! Fuck yeah, Karazhan!
If we do not destroy ourselves, we will one day venture to the stars.
First raid ever? Aerfalle Keep in AC.
And you thought buying food, pots, and elixiers was raid preparation
First WoW raid... Ulduar.
"Look around you. We're all liars here, and every one of us is better than you" - PB
one of the nowadays 5men instances: BRD/LBRS/UBRS/strat/scholo but tbh i can't really remember it prolly was too overwhelming
Hit level 70 and ran off with my guild to do kara a couple weeks later. We also got the zul'aman raid during bc, but that was as far as i got in that expansion.
Kara 10 man, Gruul's Lair 25 man.
for me it was ZG 20.
i remeber i dinged 60 on a monday afternoon. the guild i was in had lost there off tank, so they wanted me to take over, so i got a full tank set from the zg run and the shield droped to. then we took down ony and i got the T2 helmet.
Tuesday i was off tanking a full MC clear and if i remember right i allmost got a full tier 1 set on that run. best raid week for me ever in wow.
one month later we killed nefarian for the first time.
Intel i5 2500K: Asus Masimux IV Extreme: Palit GTX 680 Jetstream: Chieftec Nitro Series 1200W:Corsair H-100 Hydro:
8Gb Corsair Vengeance 1600 Mhz CL8: Crucial M4 128Gb+256Gb: Creative Sound Blaster Z: Corsair Obsidian 800D: Plextor PX-880SA
Kara 10 man, Gruul's Lair 25 man. High King Maulgar seemed s hard at the time i thought i'd never kill it, good times.
I dont really count UBRS, BRD or Strat as raids, so I'd say Zul'Gurub.
ZG, at lvl 59. Did 1 boss and got a blue item !
Stratholme. Man, 10-man UD Strat was one of the greatest experiences of all time. I was so sad when 1.10 came along and took that way from me.
Outside of that and 10-man Scholo (I *think* I did Scholo at 10 man...) it was MC, but then I realized I was horribly undergeared as a Hunter and didn't like DKP so I went back to PvP at the time.
The first time I really, really raided was Karazhan.

The X Factor Recap: Rickrolling in the Deep
We interrupt your regularly scheduled recap with a warning to the quintet of lovely brunettes who make up The X Factor Season 2 girl group Fifth Harmony: Do not stand too close to Khloé Kardashian Odom. She can sense your youth. She is beginning to feed off your effervescence. She has been instructed to assimilate you into the Kardashian collective.
With that housekeeping detail out of the way, we can now focus on the important business of Top 8 performance night: A world premiere "video" from "will.i.ann" (hey, that's what Mario Lopez called him!) and a robot rendering of Britney Spears 2.0 (airbrushed into submission, and equipped with ice-cold British accent) performing a "song" called "Scream and Shout." (Now we know what producers use to activate the audiencebots to incessantly shriek for the duration of the telecast.) The fact that this series of blips and bleeps and found voice-mail messages from the "Toxic" singer will probably move more units than the collected singles of Fantasia Barrino, Juliet Simms, and Josh Krajcik combined should be filed under the Don McLean approved heading "The Day the Music Died," and is probably enough to make you want to hide in a cave and listen only to the sound of dripping stalactities.
But fret not! The X Factor has eight acts left who are vying to make new music — or something like it — while collecting a $5 million payday. And a few of 'em aren't half bad, at least when their mentors aren't getting in the way!
Let's dole out grades for the Top 8 performances…
Diamond White: Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)" | If X Factor has taught us anything the last few weeks, it's that sometimes you get more votes for a God-awful vocal than for one that's kinda sorta okay. That might be a problem for Diamond, who showed off a sweet upper register on the acoustic, slowed-down intro, but occasionally struggled with pitch once she rose to her feet and started "having fun" while being wheeled around on a weird rolling platform. It didn't help that the kid had to perform against an aggressively lit backdrop that was reminiscent of nuclear bubble tea or that her backup dancers were clad in hideous combinations of tuxedo shirts, shorts and neon bowties. (How come the show's wardrobe department hates fashion so much?) And while Britney* had the right idea that it was time for Diamond to go uptempo, why for the love of all that's holy did she stick her with a Whitney Houston ditty that's been repeatedly attempted — without ever once resulting in anything resembling a memorable moment — on a variety of reality singing competitions? Combined with the Leadoff Spot of Doom, Diamond will be lucky if she gets to sing for her life come Thursday. (Okay, if we're keeping it real, some associate producer who's been assigned to the "Teens" category) Grade: B-
Vino Alan: The Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" | And the "Lyric145 Last Minute Song-Change/Sabotage Prize" goes to… one of the two remaining members of the undesirable "Over 25s" caste. (L.A.: "Stop acknowledging that people over 25 are allowed to live! Except for me!") Yep, since L.A. didn't get any goosebumps during Vino's rehearsal of "If You Don't Know Me By Now," he determined it was time to switch to another classic R&B ballad that wouldn't work, either. Mind you, Vino's sudden downward momentum wasn't solely the fault of his mentor: The tattooed dude delivered "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" with a dearth of enthusiasm and an excess of vibrato, skulking around the stage with a slumped posture that only accentuated the wretched fit of his boxy sportscoat. And holy hell, that reggae-infused breakdown had me praying Mario and Khloe to return to their marks and spout something inane like "Tonight was fun!" "Tonight was so much fun: It was a blast!" That said, it'd be a shame if Vino's X Factor dreams are "gone, gone, gone" come Thursday night: Lest we forget, he hasn't had a major misfire since that Nickleback catastrophe from Top 20 week. Shouldn't consistency count some? Grade: C
Paige Thomas: Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" | Wait just a second…when did I start rooting for Paige Freakin' Thomas to make it to Top 6 week…or perhaps even further? Oh, wait, I remember: When she put one hand up (can you repeat that?) and essentially told Demi Lovato, "This week, we're doing it my way." Granted, if I were in Demi's shoes, I'd have been reluctant to let Paige take the reins after she started tossing around phrases like "a signature performance" and "stripped back just isn't gonna cut it for me." But lo and behold, the gorgeous single mom's reimagining of "Never Gonna Give You Up" as a sultry, midtempo jam turned out to be the first time she actually began to live up to the "potential pop star" title that's been bandied about by the judges since her first audition. I could've lived without the "iron fence under a street light" vignette, and to be fair, there were definitely some moments where Paige's pitch was as unsteady as Khloe's teleprompter readings. But at least she got creative with the arrangement and took command of the stage — while being diplomatic enough to share credit with her mentor, who was under heavy (often uncomfortable) siege all night by Simon. Grade: A-

Rockland County Executive C. Scott Vanderhoef has rejected a protest brought by the current operator of TOR and Tappan ZEExpress buses because he said it was too late to dispute a contract award to a new company.
Vanderhoef said Rockland Transit Corp. should have challenged the $70 million five-year contract in October when the Rockland Legislature unanimously gave it to Brega Transport Corp. The protest should have been submitted within three days, or by Oct. 19, he said.
Instead, Rockland Transit, a Coach USA subsidiary, filed its first of two challenges on May 24, three days after ...

Lite N Easy
For more weight loss info and helpful services, see our Weight Loss Info Centre.
im on lite n easy as a busy mum of 2 that studies fulltime it is excellent, im a fussy eater but can always find something i like and you never go hungry meal sizes are good very happy customer
Used these guys for a couple of months - the first couple of weeks it was great but after that they started sending broken eggs. When I let them know the first time all they did was give me a credit, and it just kept happening. I asked them if they were going to do anything about it and never got any response. I even sent them photos of what I was getting and still nothing. I ended up reducing my order as I was having to go out and buy my own eggs anyway. Then, finally, one week, they decided to just not even deliver my food at all! As you can imagine this was quite stressful as I suddenly and unexpectedly had no food. I contacted them about it and they would not help. They just kept saying I hadn't put in an order when I know I did. I always took a screen shot when I was ordering to send to my phone so I even sent this to them that showed my order and the dates and they refused to acknowledge it and were just being very rude and unhelpful. My whole interraction I just got the impression they didn't really give a damn about anything. Due to this I had to order my food elsewhere. Terrible customer service and an absolute nightmare to deal with - would not recommend to anyone. What was meant to be a hassle free and convenient option turned out to be anything but. A bit of care for their customers and for the food they're sending would have gone a long way here, but I guess that was just too hard for them. There are plenty of other food delivery services out there that have better food and better customer service - my advice: skip the lite and easy nightmare and go with someone else.
Very disappointed with their service... should have received an order on Friday... call @ 4:30 and was told sorry no the delivery has been sent. Was very sorry and would call first thing Monday to let me know delivery time. NO call... Call again @ 3:30pm Monday and nothing has been done... Last order I place with them!!!
Iam on lite n easy atm and im loving it! Iam so fussy too so for me to say this it must not be too bad? Iam in my 3rd week and have lost 6 kgs already, i have started doing light exsercise (water arobics and walking) nothing too full on, but the more i do the more i want to do (very unlike me)!
I have 4 year old i have too so i still cook proper meals for him, but my hubby works away, he was back for 9 days and i struggled for a bit as his away for 26days he comes home and likes to eat out, very unhelpful haha His gone back for his 26 and instantly I find it easy again! He is very supportive but it just seem harder with him here haha i was even making my son packed lunches when we went out so i was saving money already.
The portion size is what we are meant to be eating so its very interesting to see how much i use to over eat! Of course like any diet you might stray but i seem to stick to this more than anything else that i have tried, as the food is all there. If iam really starving after dinner a peice of fruit or jelly is all i need to stop the hunger.
Its not cheap but when you break it down I think it works out cheaper? I get the breakfast, lunch and dinner option its $151 a week. I grabbed a few things for my sons lunch and dinners at the shop the other day not for a full week just a few days and it cost me $70 and ill have to go back again in a day or so.
Only bad point would be my son wants to eat all my food haha i feel awful cause i have always told him to share and now mummies not sharing not one little crumb!
Give it a go! even if its for a month to kick start your healthy living! Its made me realise i can do it! and i usually give up after a week! Iv even talked my very busy parents into it and they LOVE IT!!!
Just check with your doctor if your breast feeding or pregnant or diabetic or anything they might just suggest the higher caloire option??
The food is honestly not bad, but remember you are on a diet so its not going to be the most amazing creamy sauce with lashings of butter ect! I was actually suprised to be still eating butter and bread for that matter!
The dinner meals are a little struggle for me as i said above im fussy, i dont eat chicken, Lamb, turkey and i dont like stews, shepards pies ect haha so i dont have a HUGE choice but hay there still is a fair few! Im hoping they will introduce more vegi options as there seems to be only 4 or 5?
The good thing about Lite and Easy is that you can do week to week you dont have to sign your life away! Just every week get on the computer (i use my smart phone cause i like to live life on the edge haha) i have made some mistakes but i ring them straight away and they sort it out so no dramas. So you can try it for a week and see if it works? If not dont order it again, if you like it you can keep just ordering it week to week or you can set up so it automaticly comes out of your account.
Well hope this helps! Scales dont lie (god sometimes i wish they did) hehe
Good Luck L
I was on Lite n Easy on and off for about 2 years.
The first 7 months I ate it every day.... and lost 9kgs. I was happy with that, as except for the first 2 weeks I was not hungry.
The Good - For me the dinners are the best - so much variety and choice, and you can pick and choose what suits you best.
The bad - For me it's when both of the options are things you don't like, which happens a bit for me, meaning I have to skip or replace it.
The ugly - Forgetting to put your order in and missing the deadline...oh man, don't forget to do that.
I used lite n easy for 4 years on and off and was very happy with their product and service, until one day when I was eating my roasted chic peas and crunched on a tech screw :(
Lite n Easy were very rude to deal with about this incident and never apologised, they did however pay my dental fees so I suppose I cant complain too bad about this.
Overall the food tastes like you would expect it too, its not gormet but it works - I lost 15kg doing lite n easy.
Its also convinient if you are a single or couple, but doesnt work if you have children who are eating solids if you dont want to be cooking extra meals for them - I prefer my children and I to eat the same foods as a family.
I have used Lite and Easy for almost an year and was very satisfied and happy with it. It is quite expensive but considering the increasing cost of food items in supermarket i feel it comes out to be same , moreover you get readily cooked meals and saves lots of time in kitchen.
They have a informative website which gives all the details about the programm and we can choose the meals from the menu which is available online. Every week they deliver frozen meals at home in a ESKI which can be stored in the freezer. Although they offer so many choices in meals but they don't have vegetarian options.
They offer meals according to your weight and how many calorie your body needs per day. I use to be very relaxed when it comes to meal time as my freezer was always full of lite & easy. Meals were ready to eat - just heat it in the microwave according to the instructions and thats it.
It is good for all those people who are watching their weight and have busy lifestyles to plan their meals and still want to eat healthy.

Thank you for the replies.
Okay so I go to the window and aim out doors, its mainly cloudy with a few breaks in it.
Set the camera to 400 iso, Auto mode, f1.8, got a shutter reading of 1/250th, cock the shutter and fire, all is fine.
Now I change the aperture to f5.6, light isnt consistent but now it gives me 1/60th, cock and fire, locks up, three minutes later still hasn't released. This time I have undo the battery cover to reset it?
Set to manual, f5.6 @ 1/60th, all is fine.
Back to Auto, same settings, first time fires but sounds slow, second time sticks.
I have read about cleaning the shutter magnets on an OM10 and guess this may be similar but what confuses me is why it works fine in manual, surely if the magnets were dirty it would stick/play up what ever.

LAS CRUCES >> Taking a break from early-morning chores that included installing a little bell and repainting pillars, North Mesquite Street resident Paul Borunda sat on the breezy porch of his family adobe, admiring his rose bushes. His collection of wind chimes provided background music as he talked about the neighborhood he loves.
"This is my home. I was born here. I've lived here for 70 years and raised six children here. I want to be here when my time comes to go. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else," he said. "My mother used to talk about the cavalry coming down the street in front of us here, then turning and heading for water in the acequia. My family has been in Las Cruces since the 1800s."
His adobe home, which he said dates to the 1920s, is in the middle of a block that includes family homes with pretty plantings and unique touches like fan-shaped iron fencing and nearby, a crumbling ruin that looks like it could be an enticing lure for archaeologists.
North Mesquite Street is a study in contrasts that stretches from Solano Drive about a mile outside the area officially designated at the Mesquite Historical District.
There's a lot of activity packed in a few blocks. The street begins with some unique businesses: Art Glass, Los Tios Restaurant, Green Thumb, A Different Drummer.
VFW Post 3242 posts welcome signs.
Residences still form the backbone of the transitional area. There are apartment complexes, a few contemporary homes and old adobes, many of which have been in the same families for generations, Borunda said.
Hallmarks of cherished homes are everywhere: old-growth trees, nichos and altars, colorful window trims and exterior paints and features. There are homes built of stone and graceful arches of adobe and native rocks.
Houses of worship line North Mesquite, too: the bright-white Greater St. John Church of God in Christ, pink adobe Templo Bethel, Church of Christ with its arched roof and lush green lawn and, just south of the Chestnut Street where the Mesquite Street Historic District officially begins, the striking towers of Our Lady of Health Catholic Church.
"If not for the people and businesses who got involved in Las Esperanzas, and the historic designation, I think the city would have razed the area, erased the neighborhood and just forgot about it. But people remembered what happened during urban renewal in the 1960s, and how people still mourn the loss of the old St. Genevieve's Church and they wanted to preserve what we could," said Sylvia Camuñez, former president of Las Esperanzas, the neighborhood organization responsible for preserving historic Mesquite Street and for the creation of Jardín de Mesquite, which features fountains and a tile mural that chronicles the history of the area, as well as a community garden.
She said hundreds showed up for the dedication of the public art project, which was created by students at Court Youth Center and Alma d'arte under the leadership of artist Ken Wolverton and Irene Oliver-Lewis.
Borunda said he and many of his neighbors were not interested in being included in the historic district when it was formed, but he's since given it a lot of thought and wondered if they would be better off if they had been included.
"We thought it would just raise taxes and make it harder to make changes, but that all happened anyway," said Borunda.
Now, he said, he would like to work with the city and others to offer incentives and recognition for those who want to improve their homes and property and the neighborhood.
Even if North Mesquite Street is slightly outside the historic district, it's still part of Las Esperanzas neighborhood organization, said Dolores Archuleta, the group's current president.
"We're always glad to have new members and work with them and the city to do what we can with preservation. The whole street has a very important history as part of the Camino Real," said Archuleta, referring to the legendary El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro, "The Royal Road of the Interior Land," the ancient route from Mexico City to Santa Fe.
She feels the area has had dramatic impacts on contemporary history, too.
"People who lived there in the 1930s and 1940s are the ones who set the stage for Las Cruces as it is today ... mayors and chiefs of police and many others lived in adobes and were born and raised there," she said.
Archuleta invited those who are interested in Las Esperanzas to contact her at 575-524-7873 or email email@example.com.
If you're planning a stroll along Mesquite Street, either the northern section, or the south street historic district that includes Klein Park, several restaurants and galleries, a good place to start is Jardín de Mesquite at Spruce Street, a little oasis with fountains, benches and murals that offer short historical vignettes.

Product Description
The Indian Head Massage has a whole variety of health and well-being benefits. It helps relieve muscle tension in the neck, shoulders and scalp. Sooths headaches, sinusitis, eyestrain and helps to promote hair growth.
It also helps allow blood and lymph flow to the upper body, promotes relaxation, better sleep, sharper thinking and harmonizes your Chakras!
The massage is given whilst fully clothed, although access to your shoulders should be given if you wish to receive the full massage sequence. It is performed on the upper back where tension often settles, the shoulders, neck, arms, scalp and face.
Indian Head massage begins with a deep kneading and probing of the neck and shoulder muscles, similar to Osteopathy but with no crunching or cracking of joints.
The head is then worked with the scalp being squeezed, rubbed, gently tapped and prodded. The hair is briskly tussled and gently combed, leaving you oozing with relaxation and wobbly knees!!
This experience will last 60 minutes, which is the perfect amount of time to ensure you come away feeling relaxed, and renewed. This is the perfect way to release tension that can build up during everyday stressful life, so why not have a weight lifted from your shoulders (or head as it may be!)

text: B.C. Mine Reclamation Symposium 2001 http://hdl.handle.net/2429/7474 2015-12-01T20:16:05Z Water management of the Steep Rock Iron Mines at Atikokan, Ontario during construction, operations, and after mine abandonment http://hdl.handle.net/2429/10657 The Steep Rock Iron Mines at Atikokan, Ontario operated from 1944 to 1979. The iron ore was located at the bottom of Steep Rock Lake and water management was a key factor in developing the mines. Open pit mining required a massive water diversion scheme, including the diversion of the Seine River, draining of Steep Rock Lake, and construction of various dams and other diversion structures. In order to abandon the mine, the Province of Ontario required a suitable abandonment and long-term water management plan, and assessment of the condition of the various water control and diversion structures. Reclamation of the Seine River to its original course was not possible and, consequently, the water control structures, primarily dams and tunnels, will be operating in perpetuity. The water management during the development of the mines and during operations is described, as well as some insight into future water management options after abandonment. 2001-01-01T00:00:00Z Post closure mine dewatering and treatment of contaminated waters at the Sullivan Mine in Kimberley, B.C. http://hdl.handle.net/2429/10656 The Sullivan Mine has been operated by Cominco Ltd. since 1909, and is scheduled for closure in December of 2001. The Sullivan ore body is acid generating but operated for many decades before the need to control acid rock drainage (ARD) was recognized. Presently, the generation of ARD can not be prevented, only mitigated. The main sources of ARD include drainage from the underground mine workings, run off and seepage from mining and milling wastes and discharges from the operating tailing ponds. The generation of ARD is expected to continue for an indefinite period after closure. While several projects have been undertaken to minimize the generation of ARD in the last 20 years of mine and concentrator operation, a plan to deal with the on-going generation of these contaminated waters after closure was required. Components of the existing ARD mitigation system will continue to function with some modifications to account for the reduction in ARD volumes generated due to reclamation efforts and the cessation of mining and milling operations. The Drainage Water Treatment Plant (DWTP), which utilizes lime to increase pH and remove metals from ARD into a high-density chemically stable sludge, is the key to current and long-term treatment of contaminated waters. Collection and storage of ARD prior to treatment at the DWTP is another important aspect of ARD control. The DWTP cannot operate continually at design capacity with the expected reductions in post closure ARD flows. For post closure operation, safe storage of contaminated waters is required until the volumes will allow the treatment plant to operate at design levels for a reasonable period of time. A two-reservoir system utilizing the under-ground mine and a surface pond has been designed for contaminated water storage. Three deep-well underground pump stations will be located within the mine. The mine will be allowed to fill to a predetermined level, after which, mine water will be pumped to the above-ground ARD reservoir and subsequently to the DWTP for treatment and discharge to the St Mary River. The DWTP will operate on a campaign basis during periods when the impact on the receiving water, the St Mary River, is minimized. 2001-01-01T00:00:00Z Review of biological indicators for metal mining effluents : a proposed protocol using earthworms http://hdl.handle.net/2429/10655 There is growing concern about the need for unified criteria on bioindicators used to evaluate the impacts of mine effluents or accidental spills. Toxicological tests based on lethal concentrations (e.g. LC50) have been extensively used to assess effluents, although the biological impact of mining activities cannot always be attributed to acute lethality alone. Geochemical methods, such as sequential or selective chemical extraction, have also been widely used to provide indirect evidence of the availability of metals to organisms. However, the relationship between geochemical parameters, metal uptake, and biological effects is frequently not clear due to complicating interactions between variables. In order to comprehensively characterize risks from mining related discharges, concerns with existing, commonly employed methodologies must be resolved and protocols to assess the effects of sub-lethal or chronic exposure must be established. This paper reviews current understanding of bioaccumulation and bioavailability of heavy metals associated with mining effluents and it explores the concept of the bioaccumulation factor (BAF) and its applicability to mining impacted sites. Existing protocols for assessment of mining related discharges are also compared and a simple, low-cost methodology using earthworms for the evaluation of metal bioavailability in tailings and effluents is proposed. Earthworms are particularly suitable for the assessment of contaminant bioavailability as they are proven metal accumulators and are in full contact with the substrate they consume. As well, they are well studied, easily bred and participate in many food chains and, unlike fish, can be used to assess a variety of media. 2001-01-01T00:00:00Z Development of an environmental effects monitoring program for the Eskay Creek Mine http://hdl.handle.net/2429/10600 Environmental Effects Monitoring (EEM) is an important component of metal mining operations which is used to determine if mine discharges are causing adverse effects to the aquatic receiving environment. In 1997, prior to the publication of Environment Canada's draft EEM guidance document, Homestake Canada, Inc. requested that EVS Environment Consultants (EVS) implement an EEM Program for the Eskay Creek Mine. Mining operations at this site result in the production of mine water, waste rock and tailings, which Homestake is authorized to discharge. The Eskay Creek Mine EEM program was designed to assess whether mine discharges cause exceedances of the BC Freshwater Aquatic Life Criteria in the receiving environment and/or adverse effects to resident aquatic biota. The program includes monitoring of water, sediment, periphyton, benthic invertebrate communities, and bioaccumulation studies (no fish are present in the creeks draining the mine site). Results of the EEM studies show that water and sediment chemistry appear to be minimally impacted by mine discharges, with several criteria exceedances due to naturally high metal concentrations from the mineral rich drainage. Elevated sediment metal concentrations are present in Ketchum Creek downstream of mine discharges. However, the benthic invertebrate community increases in both abundance and number of taxa, which suggests that metals are not adversely affecting the community. Overall, discharges from the mine do not appear to be impacting sediment or water quality in the Unuk River as this system contains naturally high metals concentrations due to the mineralized drainage. Following the conclusion of each annual EEM program, results are reviewed to ensure that the objectives of the program are being met. This program is an excellent example of how science and adaptive management can be used to help mines achieve their environmental monitoring goals. 2001-01-01T00:00:00Z
