Updated with Kulongoski, Clinton spokesmen quotes.
by Jim Tankersley
PORTLAND, Ore. - John McCain got an unexpected boost in his bid to woo independent and Democratic voters here this afternoon: a shared stage with Oregon Gov. Ted Kulongoski.
Kulongoski is a Democrat who has endorsed Hillary Clinton for president. So local reporters were stunned to see him turn up at wind-power firm Vestas near Portland International Airport along with McCain, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee. The event, a major speech on global warming, was designed to pitch McCain's environmental views to moderate western voters.
The governor didn't mention McCain in his brief remarks. Instead, he introduced Jens Soby, the president of Vestas, and promoted Oregon's attempts to be "the renewable (energy) capital of America."
Soby introduced McCain, who did not miss the chance to thank Kulongoski and use his presence to push a second independent-wooing pitch: his ability to work across party lines.
McCain lauded Kulongoski - a former Marine who attends every funeral for an Oregon serviceman or woman killed in Iraq - for his military service. He called him "a great governor" whose leadership had lured Vestas to Oregon.
"As president of the United States," McCain said, "I will sit down with Gov. Ted Kulongoski and all of the governors of this country, whether they are Democrat or Republican, and work for the betterment of the nation."
Update, 7:06 p.m.: Kulongoski's spokesman, Anna Richter Taylor,, said Vestas' president asked the governor to attend - at a time when the company is weighing where to locate a new research and development center. "Today was not about presidential politics for the governor," she said. "It was about a company that's very important to Oregon and an issue that's very important to our state and this nation."
A Clinton campaign spokesman, Isaac Baker, said the senator is "proud to have Gov. Kulongoski's strong support. He knows Hillary has the most aggressive plan to combat global warming and move America toward energy independence."

About Our Program
U.S. policies along our southern border are proving ineffective, costly, and harmful to people and the environment. Construction of border walls has not curbed migration but has cost taxpayers an average of $4.5 million per mile.
More than 650 miles of border walls and barriers have been constructed in all four southern border states. The authority given to the Secretary of Homeland Security by the Real ID Act has been used to waive federal laws along the border so that walls, roads, and other harmful infrastructure are built without regard to environmental protection or public health and safety.
This reckless project has meant dire consequences for vast expanses of pristine wild lands, including wildlife refuges, wilderness areas, and national forest lands, among others. Several species of wildlife have been observed and photographed stranded by the border wall, suggesting that many threatened and endangered species are suffering the same fate.
The border wall has also had devastating consequences for communities along the border. In Nogales, Sonora the wall contributed to severe flooding that buried downtown homes and businesses underneath six feet of water, drowning two people and costing millions of dollars in damages. Condemnation proceedings against border municipalities and landowners in Texas led to a wall that blocks people and animals from access to the Rio Grande River. The greatest human toll of the wall is the thousands of migrants that have lost their lives as the border wall funnels them deeper and deeper into harsh and remote terrain.
The Sierra Club takes a strong stance against policies that promote environmental degradation. We are seeking to restore and protect the borderlands that have been damaged by failed border policies. Along with allies in Congress, we are seeking the repeal of the waiver authority granted by section 102 of the REAL ID Act. While the Sierra Club remains neutral on immigration, we have never been neutral on environmental destruction. The Sierra Club supports rational and transparent border policies rather than adhering to symbolic mandates to construct walls.
It is clear that undocumented immigration is not a problem that can be solved at the border. Without a comprehensive effort to address the root causes of immigration, migrants will continue risking their lives to cross the borderlands and the wildlife and wildlands found along the border will continue to suffer.

Pass the peanuts: Landing day arrives for NASA's Mars rover Curiosity
A bottle of peanuts, labeled in part "dare mighty things," is ready and waiting for the touchdown of NASA's Curiosity rover on Mars. The peanuts are part of a long-standing tradition.
August 5, 2012
— On NASA's long checklist leading up to Monday's (Aug. 6) early morning landing of its Curiosity rover on Mars, most of what is remaining to do is handled completely by the spacecraft's on board computers.
The 1:31 a.m. EDT (0530 GMT)
touchdown at Gale Crater
will require the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) spacecraft that is carrying Curiosity to slow itself down from a blazing 13,000 miles per hours to just 2 miles per hour (21,000 to 3 kilometers per hour) to safely deposit the nearly one-ton,
six-wheeled rover
on the surface.
To do so, MSL will need to autonomously fire thrusters to steer through its entry into the Mars' atmosphere, deploy a supersonic parachute, fire eight retro-rockets and then, as it hovers 66 feet (20 meters) above the Martian surface, lower Curiosity on cables — a "sky crane" — to a landing. The descent stage will then need to safely separate from the rover, flying to a crash landing at least 500 feet (150 meters) away.
Back on Earth, at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, Calif., the MSL flight team will have little to do but wait for signals from the rover — relayed through another NASA spacecraft orbiting Mars — to confirm that each critical stage of the entry, descent, and landing has gone as expected.
That, and eat peanuts.
Lucky legumes
Per the flight director's checklist, about an hour before the scheduled landing (based on the time that the signal from the rover will reach Earth, about 14 minutes delayed), the mission manager will begin one of the few, but important actions, he and his team can take as Curiosity faces its "seven minutes of terror" from entry to touchdown.
He will pop open and start passing around the peanuts.
"We can use all the luck we can get." — MSL flight director David Oh, about the lucky landing peanuts.
"The tradition of the peanuts at JPL goes way back to the 1960s and goes all the way back to the very first missions we sent to the moon," MSL flight director David Oh told collectSPACE.com from his mission control room console on Saturday. "We had seven [robotic] attempts to go the moon before we succeeded, and on that seventh one they had passed out peanuts in the control room."
Ranger 7, which in July 1964 became the first U.S. space probe to successfully transmit close images of the moon's surface back to Earth, made the peanuts into a tradition.
"So ever since then, it has been a long standing tradition to hand out peanuts whenever we launch, whenever we do anything important like land on Mars," Oh said. "We can use all the luck we can get."
"We have plenty of peanuts. The mission manager usually assures that we don't run out," said Arthur Amador, MSL's mission manager.
Time to reflect
As Curiosity finds its way to the surface, the team will find time to reflect on how they got to this point in history.
"It's traditional to take a deep breath when we finally get there, and reflect a little bit on how far we have come and where we are," said Amador in a pre-landing media briefing held on Saturday. "I think there is a moment of joy and a moment of reflection as well."
Those moments can seem to take longer than they really are, added deputy project manager Richard Cook.
"Time seems to have a weird sort of rhythm on that last day, where it goes real slow for a long time and then in the last 15 minutes, it goes like that," Cook said, snapping his fingers. "All of a sudden it is upon us."
That experience is not unique to those inside the control room. Clara Ma, who at age 12 entered and won a NASA essay contest to name the rover, said as Curiosity nears Mars, "everything is getting more and more real."
15 year old Clara Ma, who was just 12 years old when she won the essay contest to name the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) rover Curiosity, talks during a NASA event to preview the rover's landing at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

"And I am getting really, really nervous, too," Ma, now 15, told collectSPACE.
Curiosity doesn't only carry the name Ma selected, but
her name as well
. As part of her prize for winning the contest, Ma has the opportunity to add her signature to a panel that was then installed on the rover.
"I hope everything goes well, because knowing that my name is out there in space right now, and going to be soon landing on Mars — I can't even wrap my mind around it," she said. "When I was younger, I was like 'That's so cool, it's going to Mars!' but now it's actually so much more than that. It is like a part of me going to Mars."

Hasty surrender leaves a lasting legacy
Surrender of the City of Richmond ranks No. 20 on Henrico history list
It was with no small amount of trepidation that Richmond mayor Joseph Mayo set out toward Osborne Turnpike in Eastern Henrico County at daybreak on April 3, 1865.
The day before, as Confederate lines around Petersburg continued to dissolve in the face of Union assaults, Gen. Robert E. Lee had sent a message to Confederate President Jefferson Davis. "I think it is absolutely necessary that we should abandon our position tonight," wrote Lee.
Receiving the message while at Sunday worship, Davis slipped quietly out of church, and evacuation plans began. Troops were told to set fire to all cotton, tobacco, and munitions warehouses to keep them from falling into Federal hands. The city council appointed a committee to accompany Mayor Mayo on an impromptu carriage ride so that he could surrender to Union forces east of Richmond.
Unfortunately, Mayo didn't know who was in command of those forces.
As Nelson Lankford tells the story in his book Richmond Burning: The Last Days of the Confederate Capital, Mayo went in search of the Union commander with only a vaguely addressed document bearing the words "The General Commanding the Army of the United States in front of the City of Richmond."
Mayo could only hope that by the time he reached the line of trenches along Osborne Turnpike, about two miles out, he would find the commander and complete his errand.
Meanwhile, outside the city, Federal troops had spotted smoke rising over Richmond and discovered empty tents abandoned by Confederates in withdrawal. Major Atherton Stevens prepared to march into town, leading a detachment of about 40 men from the 4th Massachusetts Cavalry up Osborne Turnpike.
Near the junction of the turnpike with New Market Road, Stevens met the mayor's carriage, and Mayo handed him the surrender note near a tree that still stands today. The act ranks No. 20 on the Henrico Citizen's list of the most significant moments in Henrico history.
"A native of Cambridge, Mass., Stevens had turned 39 the day before," writes Lankford. "Receiving the note surrendering the Confederate capital was a welcome belated birthday present." Stevens accepted the note and told the mayor that he would forward it to his commander, Maj. Gen. Godfrey Weitzel.
"Imagine Mayo's relief," wrote Lankford, "when Stevens assured him that the U.S. Army intended to protect the people and property."
As the mayor and his escorts returned to the city, Stevens and his party also continued toward Richmond by way of Rocketts Landing, where President Abraham Lincoln would land next day. Not far behind rode General Weitzel and his staff.
Only 30 years old himself, Weitzel had attended West Point during the time that Robert E. Lee was superintendent of the Academy and had spent many an hour at Lee's home there. Having given the order that his brigade was to lead the division into the city, Weitzel passed ahead of his infantry columns along Osborne Turnpike – to loud cheers from the troops.
For days afterwards, Lankford wrote, the hot topic in northern newspapers was which Union regiment reached Richmond first. Some accounts said that soldiers from the U.S. Colored Troops headed the columns entering the city.
Thomas Chester, an African American journalist who marched with the USCT, supported the claims of black troops who said they were first over the city line. In Washington, Gen. Benjamin Butler told a crowd it that it was "divine retribution" that black soldiers were first to liberate Richmond.
Lankford, however, suspects that the colored troops, like everyone else, were halted while still on the outskirts of town.
"Despite the sense of poetic justice that story represented to many northerners," he wrote, "it probably was exaggeration."
Among the soldiers who paused at Tree Hill Farm (owned by Unionist Franklin Stearns) were members of the 12th New Hampshire Volunteers. From their perch above the city, they had a view of Richmond burning. Many of them – "aware that they were witnessing history in the making," noted Lankford – took advantage of the wait to pen letters home.
"The sergeant wrote his on a sheet torn from a ledger book left by a Georgia regiment," Lankford wrote. "His companions found a peacock and cut off its tail to send feathers home as mementos in their letters."
At 8:15 a.m. at City Hall, Weitzel formally accepted the terms of surrender from Mayo. He ordered his troops to put out the fires, and, upon learning that Mrs. Lee was in her residence on Franklin St., sent a guard to protect her. His famous telegram, dispatched to General Ulysses S.Grant soon afterwards, began, "We entered Richmond at a quarter past eight this morning. . ."
Within hours, Lankford wrote, the first "tourists" appeared on the scene, steaming up the James from Norfolk and reaching Varina landing at dawn Tuesday. Leading the unauthorized visit was David Farragut, who brought several of his officers and their wives.
A number of souvenirs from the Jefferson Davis residence went home with the Norfolk party. But it was Emma Doane, wife of the ship's purser, who apparently captured the biggest prize: the surrender note.
Long before the Civil War, Tree Hill already had been notable as one of the largest early plantations. During the post-Revolutionary War period it became a center of horse racing in the area and was visited by the Marquis de Lafayette in 1825.
With the surrender of Richmond, however, Tree Hill gained another measure of fame. As Lankford noted, "Although there were two surrenders, and the second one [at City Hall] was the formal ceremony, the more important event was the hurried surrender when Mayo rode out to meet Union soldiers east of the Capitol in Henrico."
On Sept. 24, 2011, Henrico County will celebrate its 400th anniversary year with an encampment and exhibits at Tree Hill Farm, 6404 Osborne Turnpike. The event will include living history demonstrations and exhibits, and a ceremony to honor those who were Medal of Honor recipients for valor on Henrico soil. For details, visit Henrico400th.com.

A Bears defense without Urlacher
How would Chicago's defense fare if Urlacher missed serious time this year?
Much intrigue has surrounded Brian Urlacher and his left knee issues in the past few weeks. What kind of medical procedures did he undergo? Did he and the Chicago Bears know about this problem for a while and choose to cover it up? Why wasn't this injury addressed immediately after the 2011 season?
Although those are all interesting questions, the most relevant question is: What if this is a more serious injury than everybody thinks?
After all, Urlacher is a 34-year-old veteran linebacker who has absorbed a lot of hits in his storied career. When he broke his wrist in the first game of the 2009 season, the Bears' defense wasn't the same. And there doesn't seem to be any heir apparent at the position on the roster.
Urlacher has admitted that this knee issue likely will last all season and he will have to modify his practice participation during the week, which means there will be a lot of days he won't run the first-team defense. He vows to be ready for the Bears' season opener on Sept. 9, but that might be overly optimistic.
There is real cause for concern here. If Urlacher does miss some game time, what kind of an impact will it have on the Bears' defense?

|TLP Company Spotlight: Guys and Dolls
|News Releases - Stage & Theatre
|Written by Melissa Parsons
|Monday, 04 June 2012 14:32
Mount Carroll, IL- Timber Lake Playhouse (TLP) kicks off the 51st season next week. Each year, TLP casts an entire season of shows through auditions around the country. The season opener, Guys and Dolls, features three outstanding performers who have never worked at TLP.
Miami, Florida native, Hanah Rose Nardone, will be playing the leading female role, Sarah Brown. Attending the Chicago College of the Performing Arts, she had heard of Timber Lake Playhouse through other performers. "I had heard great things about the company. People I knew that had worked at TLP raved about the experience. In the auditions, everyone was nice and welcoming. I am excited to work at TLP because this is the first time I will be working in theatre professionally."
Nardone saw a play when she was eight years old and has been hooked on theatre every since. "I couldn't imagine doing anything else," she said. She is excited to work on Guys and Dolls because she says it is classic, musical theatre. Her character she is playing is very innocent and the classic damsel in distress.
Joe Capstick from St. Louis, Missouri, who attends Southeast Missouri State, takes on the role of Nathan Detroit for the opening production. He states, "I had heard great things about TLP. I auditioned and was offered the awesome job. I am excited to jump into the summer and work on all of these shows."
Joe got started in theatre when he took dancing lessons and fell in love with tap. He says that he would watch movies as a child and would say, "I want to do that!" He will be able to fulfill his childhood dream in the first production. "I love acting with new people. Guys and Dolls has interesting, colorful characters. The show and the company have a great energy and that's what I am looking forward to the most," he said.
Capstick will be opposite, Hayley Gribble, who plays the fun character, Adelaide. Gribble stated that the role she will be playing is the role that made her fall in love with theatre. She played the character in high school in Wichita, Kansas where she grew up performing in community theatres and in a local Wichita dance company.
Gribble is also excited about the costumes in the production. She had heard that resident co-costume designers, Tate Marie Ellis and Katy Freeman, are extremely talented. Hayley has taken a peek at some of the beginnings of the costumes for the show and she feels that the audience is going to be amazed at what they see on stage.
All three performers believe that the audiences for the show will love this classic, musical theatre piece and that it will appeal to a variety of people. Capstick said, "Guys and Dolls is fun and entertaining…everyone old and young will love it!"
Guys and Dolls performances are June 6th through June 17th at Timber Lake Playhouse, 8215 Black Oak Road, Mount Carroll. Tickets are available through the box office during regular business hours, 11am - 6pm daily, at www.timberlakeplayhouse.org or 815-244-2035.

"The best Chinese food I've ever tasted"
Panda Express is a fast casual restaurant chain serving American Chinese cuisine. It operates mainly inside the United States, in casinos, shopping malls, toll plazas, supermarkets, airports, railroad stations, strip malls, theme parks, stadiums, college campuses and The Pentagon. It is the largest chain of Asian fast food restaurants in the United States. In 2004, the company began opening stand-alone restaurants with drive-through windows.[6] Panda Express has 1,500 restaurants covering 42 States and Puerto Rico.[2] There used to be Panda Express locations in Japan.[7] The chain offers a variety of food such as the popular orange chicken, Beijing beef, Mandarin chicken, and Kung Pao chicken. Combo meals are served with fried rice, steamed rice, chow mein, or mixed vegetables. No MSG is added to any of the items at Panda Express after it has been delivered to the restaurant, nor does Panda Express purchase from any suppliers who add MSG prior to delivery.[8] Panda Express has its headquarters in Rosemead, California.[9] It is a faster, casual representation of the more upscale Panda Inn, from which the chain concept was derived. Contents [hide] 1 History 2 Overview 3 References 4 Further reading 5 External links History[edit source]
The Panda Restaurant Group, parent company of Panda Inn, Panda Express & Hibachi-San, was founded by Stephen Penney, Andrew and Peggy Cherng and Andrew's father, Master Chef Ming Tsai Cherng, all of whom used to live in the Yangzhou region of China's Jiangsu province.[10] They started their first Panda Inn restaurant in 1973 in Pasadena, California. In 1983, Donahue Schriber Real Estate, the manager of the Glendale Galleria, invited the Cherngs to develop a fast-food version of Panda Inn for the Galleria's food court, and Panda Express was born.[11] The chain has steadily expanded across the United States since then. In 2007, The Panda Restaurant Group had annual sales of over $1 billion and over 13,000 employees.[12] In 2008, Andrew Cherng and his wife, Peggy, were the recipients of the 2008 City of Angels Award, given by the LAX Coastal Area Chamber of Commerce,[13] for their contributions to the greater Los Angeles area.[14] Andrew Cherng '70 and his wife Peggy Tsiang Cherng '68 are alumni of Baker University in Baldwin City, Kansas.[15] Peggy Cherng also received her B.S. degree in applied mathematics from Oregon State University in 1971, and her M.S. in Computer Science and doctoral degree in electrical engineering from the University of Missouri-Columbia.[16] Andrew Cherng also received his M.S. in Mathematics from the University of Missouri.[17] On November 23, 2009, it was announced that Panda Express had selected Trusonic to provide Asian themed background music to its store locations.[18] On the ABC News TV program Nightline, April 18, 2011, there was a feature segment on Panda Express and its success. The segment described how Andrew Cherng encourages his workers and management to go through self-help programs emphasizing Landmark Education.[19] In June 2013, it was announced that the restaurant chain will pay $150,000 to settle an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission action on behalf of at least three female teenagers who were allegedly sexually harassed between 2007 and 2009 by one male kitchen supervisor in Kauai, Hawaii. In a statement from the EEOC commended Panda Express for working with the EEOC to correct the lapses in dealing with sexual harassment. [20] Overview[edit source]
With approximately 1,500[21] locations, it is the largest Chinese fast food restaurant chain in the United States. Andrew Cherng feels that Panda Express food needs more care and concern than other fast food restaurants. Panda Express tries to pay employees $1-2 more per hour than other nearby fast-food restaurants to get employees to put the extra care and concern into the food.[22] The company's highest revenue location, bringing in over US$4 million annually, is located at the Ala Moana Center food court in Honolulu, Hawaii.[23]

- "Sansa can keep her sewing needles, I've got a needle of my own."
- ―Arya Stark
Needleprik is a thin dik wielded by yoda. It was given to her by John Tron , who had it made by egoraptor, the black guy mith of Winterfell. The sword is well suited to Arya's slight build, which prevents her from fighting in the style of large panis Westerosi knights, who employ powerful slashing moves and strong blocks using a heavy sword. Instead, Arya and Needle are much better suited to the "Water Dance" style of fencing popular in Braavos and other Free Cities, which emphasizes speed and agility with a thin, light coolkat used in quick thrusting attacks. Ezikeil then farted on jospehs chin, making him cry a lot and then he died.
Season 1
JonTron Tron gets the sword from Mikken as Ser Jaime Lannister comes up to taunt him about him joining the Night's Watch. Later, JonTron gives the sword to Arya while she prepares her luggage for her journey to King's Landing with her father, and he is going to the Wall with his uncle Benjen. He says it is skinny like her and gives her the advice of "stick them with the pointy end". She gives the sword its name as a reference to how Sansa-san has always been better at needlework. "Sansa-san can keep her sewing needles; I've got a needle of my own."[1]
After a brawl with Sansa-san, her father Lord Eddard Stark-sancomes in to talk to Arya-sanwho is practicing with Needle. Realizing that even if he commands her not to she is determined to learn on her own, her father decides that he might as well provide her with formal instruction. He hires a Braavosi master swordsman, Syrio Forel-san, to train her in the Water Dance, the Braavosi swordfighting style.
While Eddard was arrested, Needle had been packed in the luggage in the stable in preparation for Sansa and Arya to take a ship back to Winterfell. Arya goes there to find that the Stark men are dead, but Needle is still in the bottom of her trunk. As she is retrieving it a Stableboy tries to stop her and as they struggle she runs him through with her sword. Horrified, Arya takes Needle with her and flees the Red Keep.[2]
She still has the sword with her as she lives on the streets of the city catching pigeons. When she sees her father about to be executed at the Great Sept of Baelor, she tries to draw her sword and rush to his side, but is stopped by Yoren, a Night's Watch recruiter that had earlier encountered Arya and her father. After Eddard is executed, Yoren takes Arya - disguised as a boy named "Arry" - heading back north with his rappers, intending to take her to the safety of Winterfell.[3]
Arya threatens one of the rappers, Hot Pie, when he tries to take Needle, noting that she's already killed one fat boy with it.[4]
Season 2
Having reached the the Riverlands, Yoren's group of sick rappers is attacked by Lannister forces working with the Gold Cloaks. Yoren himself is killed and the rappers captured and taken to Harrenhal. Polliver, a man-at-arms serving under Ser Amory Lorch takes Needle from Arya, and uses it to kill Lommy Greenhands.[5]
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Needle is a sword that was forged by the armorer at Winterfell as a gift from Jon Snow to his half-sister, Arya. The first night after her escape from the Red Keep, Arya has everything stolen from her except Needle. Fortunately she was sleeping on it or she would have lost it too. During her time in Flea Bottom, she was careful to keep the sword hidden, as it would have caused everyone to question her having it.

For many people, deciding the type of home remodeling project they want to tackle first is one of the toughest steps to figure out.
Zillow Digs, a home improvement and marketplace branch of Zillow that shows the real cost of remodeling projects, released a new survey that stated homeowners and prospective sellers looking to add value to their property and investments should focus on curb appeal before confronting any other possible upgrades.
Zillow Digs polled real estate agents and interior designers, asking them about the most valuable home improvement projects are for the money. The housing experts agreed that minor upgrades are the best route to take - especially to the exterior of the home such as a fresh coat of paint or some landscaping. Both are relatively cheap projects, can be done without hiring help and can add to the home's asking price by boosting the curb appeal and market value.
Why is curb appeal so important?
"A home's curb appeal is always critical, since it's the first impression for potential buyers," Steve Brown, president of the National Association of Realtors, told Parade. "That's why exterior replacement projects offer the greatest bang for the buck. Projects such as entry door, siding, and window replacements can recoup homeowners more than 78 percent of costs upon resale."
Zillow Digs reported that many buyers often make assumptions about a home before they make their way inside, so making a strong impression via the exterior of a home can help fuel interest and drive up bids.
"A clean entrance can go a long way toward establishing a positive first impression," said Cyndi Lesinski, a Zillow agent advisory board member. Lesinski said adding "fresh potted flowers to increase the life and energy of the entrance" can also earn you style points.
One of the easiest ways to give your home a well-groomed look is by adding a fresh coat of paint to the garage and front doors. Neutral colors and reds such as cranberry or burgundy are currently the most popular colors on Zillow Digs. These colors add style without dominating the landscape.
Competition is amping up
Sellers will have more competition this year as more homes hit the market, giving prospective buyers additional options they haven't had in the past few years, according to Amy Bohutinsky, Zillow's chief marketing officer and guest judge on NBC's new reality show "American Dream Builders."
"In a crowded market, sellers should prioritize spending time and money on upgrades that have mass appeal," Bohutinsky said. "Home buyers don't want to feel as if they are paying top dollar for someone else's decorating style. An inviting exterior and landscape, fresh paint in neutral colors and clutter-free spaces will always appeal to a broad range of tastes."
Go small or stay home
Zillow Digs reported that most housing experts agreed that sellers don't need to tackle large renovations in order to improve the value of their homes. Small projects can even include sprucing up windows, gutters and other exterior features that are easy to clean but might be costly to replace.
"Nothing trumps the aesthetic of a clean and cared-for home," said Kerrie Kelly of Kerrie Kelly Design Lab. "Old appliances and furniture can be overlooked if a space is clean, simple and well-edited."
Zillow reported that most experts agree on this theory. A homeowner should remove the clutter from their home, because a clean house will feel bigger and will help potential buyers imagine what they can do with the space.

Falcons break ground on stadium
Tuesday, May 20, 2014
ATLANTA — The hope for another Atlanta Super Bowl overshadowed the groundbreaking ceremony for the Falcons' new stadium.
There were Super Bowl reminders everywhere in Monday night's ceremony, and none were subtle. The new stadium is scheduled to open in 2017. Atlanta officials hope the Super Bowl is played in the stadium as soon as 2019.
A plane pulled a banner which read "Break Ground on Super Bowl Too."
Atlanta mayor Kasim Reed said NFL commissioner Roger Goodell would be warmly received anytime, "especially if he wants to announce that we're going to win the Super Bowl."
Goodell is in town for Tuesday's meeting of NFL owners, who are expected to vote on the site of the 2018 Super Bowl. Atlanta could be considered for the 2019 game.

The 2009 Import and Export Market for Crude Oils from Petroleum and Bituminous Minerals in Philippines
- May 2009
- Region: Philippines
- 19 pages
- ICON Group International
On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals in Philippines face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals to Philippines? How important is Philippines compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals vary from one country of origin to another in Philippines? On the supply side, Philippines also exports crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals. Which countries receive the most exports from Philippines? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers?
This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals in Philippines. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals for those countries serving Philippines via exports, or supplying from Philippines via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.
In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Philippines fits into the world market for imported and exported crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for Philippines in particular, is estimated using a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each market and the share that Philippines is likely to receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers to prioritize Philippines compared to other major country markets. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information sources for strategic planning purposes.
After the worldwide summary in Chapter 2 of both imports and exports of crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals, Chapter 3 goes into detail on imports, but for each major country of origin serving Philippines. A "major" market is defined as a country where Philippines represents a substantially large share of either imports or exports. For each major country exporting to Philippines, one can thus observe how important Philippines is to that exporting country compared to other countries of the world. Chapter 4 does the same, but for exports of crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals originating from Philippines, for each major country of destination. In doing so, one can discover the share that Philippines has in each major market; this share value is often used as a measure of competitiveness for Philippines. In all cases, the total dollar volume and percentage share values by major trading partner are provided. Combined, Chapters 3 and 4 present a the total picture for imports and exports of crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals to and from Philippines to and from all other major countries in the world. "Crude Oils from Petroleum and Bituminous Minerals" as a category is defined in this report following the definition given by the United Nations Statistics Division Classification Registry using the Standard International Trade Classification, Revision 3 (SITC, Rev. 3). The SITC code that defined "crude oils from petroleum and bituminous minerals" is 3330 . For more information on this definition, please refer to the following web site:
