Ron Freeman
Welcome to Ingles Markets Fiscal 2009 Third Quarter Conference Call. With me today are Robert Ingle, Founder of our Company and Chief Executive Officer, Robert Ingle II, Chairman of the Board, Jim Lanning, President, and Tom Outlaw, Vice President of Sales and Marketing.
Statements made on this call include forward looking statements as defined by and subject to the Safe Harbors created by Federal Securities laws. Words such as expect, anticipate, intend, plan, believe, and similar expressions are intended to identify forward looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed on the call.
Ingles Markets, Incorporated does not undertake to update publicly any forward looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. For a description of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from that anticipated by forward looking statements, you are referred to the company's public filings, including the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 28, 2008.
This morning, I'll provide you with a summary of our third quarter and nine month results followed by additional comments. After that, we will be pleased to take your questions. Our press release issued this morning is available on our website, www.Ingles-Markets.com. We filed our 10-Q for the quarter on Friday afternoon and it is available via our website as well.
The most significant event of the third fiscal quarter of this year was the issuance in May of $575 million of face value senior notes due 2017. The notes were issued at a discount to yield 9.5%. Using the net proceeds we repaid a $349.5 million of subordinated notes due 2011; repaid $45.3 million outstanding on our lines of credit, repaid approximately $77.7 million of secured debt, and paid transaction costs. Now we have sufficient funding to execute our store redevelopment strategy when conditions warrant and have extended the average maturity of our various pieces of debt.
In conjunction with this transaction we incurred $10.2 million of debt extinguishment costs that flow through the third quarter and nine month P&L. Given that the debt markets have been essentially closed for the past year or so with no guarantee of improvement over the next couple of years, we were pleased to take advantage of a window of opportunity to access the high yield debt market. Additional information on this transaction in the Form 10-4 filed with the SEC can be accessed via our website as well.
Net income for the fiscal 2009 three and nine month periods was adversely affected by these debt extinguishment costs, higher operating expenses resulted from our increased level of store development activities and by higher income tax expense. Net income totaled $4.7 million for the three months ended and $23.6 million for the nine months ended June 27, 2009, compared with $16.0 million and $41.6 million for the comparable three and nine month periods of fiscal 2008.
At the top line, sales comparisons between the three and nine month periods of 2009 versus 2008 are affected by significantly lower prices for gasoline and milk. First, our third quarter results. Net sales totaled $826.8 million for the three months ended June 27, 2009, compared with $835.3 million for the three months ended June 28, 2008. Excluding gasoline, net sales increased 5.1%. The average retail price of gasoline was approximately $1.50 per gallon lower comparing the third quarter of fiscal 2009 with the previous year.
Third quarter sales comparisons are also affected by the timing of the Easter holiday. In fiscal 2008 Easter fell in the company's second fiscal quarter but occurred in the company's third quarter of fiscal year 2009. Excluding gasoline sales and the effect of Easter sales, grocery segment comparable store sales increased 1.9% for the three months ended June 27, 2009, compared with the three months ended June 28, 2008.
Top sales have not increased as much as previous quarters, reflecting general economic conditions, customers trading down, and the substantial elimination of food inflation. Given those circumstances we're pleased the number of customer transactions, excluding gasoline, increased 7.8%. We believe we are competing well in a difficult environment. The average transaction size, excluding gasoline, decreased by approximately 1.3%.
Ingles operated 201 stores at June 27, 2009, compared to 197 stores at June 28, 2008. Gross profit for the June 2009 quarter increased 6.4% to $203.4 million an increase of $12.3 million compared with the third quarter of last fiscal year.
Gross margin as a percentage of sales was 24.6% for the June 2009 quarter versus 22.9% for the same quarter last year. Excluding the effect of gross profit on lower priced gasoline, grocery segment gross profit as a percentage of sales was 27.6% and 27.7% for the June 2009 and 2008 quarters respectively. We are pleased with this margin stability during a time when competition and purchasing behaviors can change quickly.

9 Creative Photo Ideas for August
05 Line up a summer beach shoot
Nature is full of shapes and patterns that can make ideal subjects, as long as you're prepared to wait for the right conditions, and think about the composition.
Travel and adventure sports photographer Chris McLennan saw exactly how he could use Mother Nature to his advantage to get this shot.
"I consciously chose the cliff-top position to capture the graphic lines left by the receding waves," he says. "The contrast of the brightly coloured windsurfer against the stark lines on the beach produced a strong composition."
Chris's advice for taking shots like this? "Know the rules of composition, then experiment with breaking those rules!"
Get started today…
- Find the right location. The Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland is a perfect place to start.
- Shoot from a high viewpoint to spot patterns and formations in the landscape.
- Pack a tripod and set your camera to a narrow aperture and low ISO to capture all of the detail in the scene.

European Tort Law 2008
Helmut Koziol, Barbara C. Steininger
Springer Vienna, Oct 22, 2009 - Law - 720 pages
A harmonisation of European law presupposes sound mutual knowledge of the jurisdictions involved in the harmonisation process. However, partly due to language problems it is not always easy to obtain information about all these jurisdictions, especially as far as new developments are concerned. Against this background, the European Centre of Tort and Insurance Law and the - stitute for European Tort Law decided to publish a Yearbook on European Tort Law containing reports on the most interesting new developments in the field of tort law in different European countries. The eighth Yearbook on European Tort Law includes reports on most EU Member States, including the new Member States Bulgaria and Romania. Contributions from Switzerland and Norway as well as an overview of the developments in the field of EC law are also included. Furthermore, the Ye- book includes a comparative overview and several essays on key issues of tort law, most of which focus on questions of burden of proof. These essays, as well as the most important results of the country reports and the compa- tive overview, were presented and discussed at the 8th Annual Conference on European Tort Law in Vienna from 16 to 18 April 2009. The 9th Annual Conference on European Tort Law will again take place in Vienna from 8 to 10 April 2010.

A magnificent beauty!
she is one of the most interesting models I've seen. There are tons of models out there that you like because they are visually attractive/appealing, there are some that are simply "OK" for your own personal taste, finally there are others you don't care for at all. Well she's 'OK' for my taste, nothing bad, just nothing that piques my interest. HOWEVER, the way she actually models grabs my eyeballs and makes me look at her! I don't even know what it is. Perhaps that she's "unassuming", if you will, but her body language and posing grabs my attention. Perhaps her attitude gets captured and subsequently lures me in. I don't know, but I know that I love the way she models and look forward to everything you guys put together!
Pretty Model. Nice shot!
No, I can't see, but I want too!

There may be other things in the future as virNetworkUpdate() gets fleshed out.The most difficult problem is that dnsmasq throws away root permissions after start-up, so re-reading the configuration is impossible if acting on the new configuration involves anything that needs root (for instance, binding sockets to ports <1024 or opening the lease file.)The philosophy is that things that would be really useful to change, without restarting dnsmasq, and certainly don't need root, are re-read on SIGHUP. That's dhcp-host information and dhcp-option information in special configuration files, /etc/hosts and /etc/ethers, and possibly /etc/resolv.conf, if it's not being polled anyway.For anything else, restarting dnsmasq is a pain-free operation anyway: there's very little state and nothing important is lost over a reboot.
One other thought occurs to me.As far as I know, the only way to get dnsmasq restarted is to do a net-destroy and then a net-start. While you can do this while a virtual guest is on that network, the virtual guest has to be rebooted for it to work again.
Is there some way (some command) that will cause dnsmasq to be restarted (possibly with new parameters as it re-does its configuration). If this was done, then little, except some cached names, would be lost). If there is not, maybe there should be. However, there are likely limits such as not changing the gateway addresses on the interface.

I like to animate with 3d studio max
Hi my name is Alex, from London. I am a junior game animator and I wanted to share my first 3D short film with the other member of the forum and gather some feedback. Thank you!
Had an account here in 2007 that I couldn't retrieve so I'm making a new one. I'm an indie animator here to discuss animation in all forms. I love 2D hand-drawn stuff and I'd like to see it come back to some amount of strength in the States. Seems unlikely, as Disney has closed its 2D doors for good, and everything here seems to be 3D, but a man can dream.
Here´s my reply....wuhuuuuuuuuuuuu!

View GEMGLOW's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from GEMGLOW
Wednesday, May 15, 2013
So, as promised i'm posting my measurements for how this last month has gone...
So, april 17 i finished insanity, my measurements were:
weight 222 lbs
hips 46.5 inches
waist 38.5 inches
thigh 28 inches
arm 14.75 inches
chest 40 inches
I had a recovery week plus did a lemon water detox during that week(you drink lemon water only for 3 days and eat light, but healthy meals only, no snacks, no junk) and during recovery week in insanity you do a core and balance workout so you ARE working out, just not as crazy as insanity is...lol
So, i began round 2 of insanity on April 22,2013...
Basically 4 weeks have gone by since the round 2 started(3 more days left..lol)
And my measurements are this:
May 14,2012
weight 217 lbs
hips 44 inches
waist 36.5 inches
thigh 26 inches
arm 14 inches
chest 39 inches
so in that month i've got some differeneces, but i lost 5 lbs, and 8.25 inches....
weight 5 lbs diffenence
hips 2.5 inches difference
waist 2 inches difference
thigh 2 inches difference
arm 0.75 inches difference
chest 1 inch difference
I have a beachbody coach on facebook and she thinks i'm adding muscle while losing fat...Because to lose inches without pounds it basically means i'm switching muscle for fat..
but HEY, i'll take the 8 inches! I'll be honest and say that i wish the weight would go down quicker but, at the same time, if i can maintain a lb/week weight lose, then i will make it to my birthday goal with extra lbs to spare!(birthday is oct.28, a good 22 weeks from now, and my goal is 199(only 18lbs to go!)
so, i'll try to get some pictures on here, but we are going away this weekend so maybe not...lol..Here's some though..(none from this week)
i don't really like these as i find the third picture is farther away then the first 2 but it'll do...

I have BCBS of NC and it covers pregnancy and some things related to infertility. It will cover infertility diagnosis treatments but it doesn't cover IUI or IVF. I'm currently taking Clomid and it is covered on my insurance. I just have to pay my Rx copay of $15. I don't pay anything for my insurance because it is covered 100% by my employer.
I have United Health Care POS II plan and it covers 10,000 dollars in infertility. and all of pregnancy. I pay around 89 a month for mine through my employer and my copay is 30.00 a visit to the doctor
R1 50mg Clomid days 5-9= BFN, R2 50mg Days 5-9= BFN
Took a Month off.... R3 100mg Days 4-8= BFN
R4 150MG Clomid Days 3-7= BFP!!!!
ah, I do not have a job that has insurane anymore, I can keep the poilcy with blue cross but I will loose a lot of benifits and pay 560 a mo.
2012 = 1CP 2013~2014 on own and 3 rounds clomid BFN
2014 ~ Me + He + Re = 1CP ~ 2 BFN ~Meilynn

Kjmama, is that through your work? How much do you pay for that? And what is your deductible?
it depends on your state. Find an insruance agent and ask around. Depending on your state you live in the insurnace coverage will be different. I live in GA and well they dont cover much. Good luck!

Take the movie 300, mix in samurais and Keanu Reeves, and that's basically 47 Ronin, Universal's actioner about the fact-based story of a band of samurais that join together to avenge their master's death in 18th-century Japan.
Variety reports that Universal is close to bringing newcomer Carl Eric Rinsch on board to direct. Before Hollywood came knocking, Rinsch directed commercials, and was once set to direct the prequel to Alien — until Ridley Scott decided to return. Clearly Universal thinks highly of Rinsch to give him such an effects-heavy, high-budget movie for his debut.
Chris Morgan (Wanted) wrote the 47 Ronin script, and especially tailored it so that Reeves, who is half-Asian, could play one of the samurai swordsman. Does that mean that after Reeves wins a fight, he does a celebratory air-guitar jam?

Berman DeValerio Files Securities Class Action Lawsuit Against KIT Digital, Inc.
Berman DeValerio has filed a securities class action lawsuit against KIT digital, Inc. (NASDAQ: KITD)("KIT digital" or the "Company") and certain of its officers (collectively, with KIT digital, the "Defendants"). KIT digital is a global provider of on-demand Internet Protocol-based video asset management systems. The lawsuit alleges violations of United States securities laws on behalf of purchasers of KIT digital common stock between May 19, 2009 and November 21, 2012 (the "Class Period"). The complaint was filed Dec. 18, 2012 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, as Hughes v. KIT digital et al., 12-civ-9210 (S.D.N.Y.).That same day, the Company announced that it had dismissed its independent auditor, Grant Thornton LLP, and that its stock would be delisted from the NASDAQ Stock Market effective Dec. 21, 2012. To receive a copy of the complaint, please call Berman DeValerio at (800) 516-9926 or click here. Pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, investors wishing to serve as the lead plaintiff in the case must file a motion for appointment with the court no later than January 29, 2013. The lawsuit alleges claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. §§ 78j(b) and 78t(a), and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by the United States Securities Exchange Commission on behalf of Class Period investors. According to the lawsuit, the Defendants made material false and misleading statements and failed to disclose material facts about KIT digital's business. Specifically, the lawsuit alleges that the Defendants made false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose (1) that there were irregularities with the Company's accounting relating, in part, to revenue recognition for certain license agreements; (2) that the Company's financial statements were not prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles; (3) that the Company's internal controls were deficient and incapable of producing adequate financial reporting, as was revealed later in the Class Period; and (4) as a result of the above, the Company's financial statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

Judge rules Indiana's new school voucher program is constitutional
News Releases
Education & Schools
Written by Education Action Group
Monday, 23 January 2012 08:46
ISTA threatens state with more punches
By Ben Velderman
EAG Communications
INDIANAPOLIS – The nation's most comprehensive voucher program has survived its first legal test.
Last Friday, a
Marion County
judge ruled that
new voucher law, the
Indiana Choice Scholarship
program, is completely constitutional. The 2011 law gives low- and middle-income families a voucher to pay for tuition at the public or private school of their choice, including religious schools.
Indiana State Teachers Association
, the state's largest teachers union, and a collection of voucher opponents sued that state, arguing that the law violated the separation of church and state.
In his ruling, Marion Superior Court Judge
Michael Keele
wrote, "This Court therefore concludes that the degree of religiosity of the participating schools is immaterial to the case at hand," and noted that the scholarship program "bestows benefits onto scholarship recipients who may then choose to use the funding for education at a public, secular private, or religious school."
"(The program) is designed to benefit students, not schools, and the court recognized that very essential fact,"
Bert Gall
, an attorney for the
Institute for Justice
, told
. "It's the most salient fact in determining that the program is constitutional."
"This is a huge victory," said
Robert Enlow
, president of the
Friedman Foundation for Educational Choice
. "It means that the nearly 4,000 low-and middle-income children in Indiana who are participating in the program can continue to attend a high quality, non-public school using public funds."
Voucher supporters believe the favorable ruling will encourage more Hoosier families to make use of the program, which is designed to level the education playing field between poor and affluent students.
The voucher program is available to families earning up to 150 percent of the federal free and reduced price lunch program with enrollment caps set at 7,500 students in the first year, 15,000 in the second, and no limits in year three and beyond.
That last detail explains why the president of the state's teachers union has promised to appeal the ruling.
"This is just round one," said ISTA
President Teresa Meredith
It's very revealing that the teachers union frames this issue in terms of a boxing match. While lawmakers are trying to free children from failing schools and give them a brighter future, the union sees this as just another political slug-fest over money. We're disappointed by their response, but not even a little bit surprised.
Indiana's success in passing a voucher program may have started a domino effect throughout the country.
Last week,
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal
said he wants a voucher program for students who attend a state-managed school district.
This week,
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie
used his State of the State address to promote the
Opportunity Scholarship Act
, a voucher program that would apply only to students trapped in the Garden State's worst-performing school districts.
"Opportunity should not be offered to only those in an excellent school district, or with parents who have the money to release their children from the prison that is a failing school," Christie said.
The voucher plan was presented during last year's legislative session. Though it had strong bipartisan support, it never received an up or down vote.
It's unclear if the scholarship act will fare any better in 2012, as the
New Jersey Education Association
remains a powerful political player that's determined to kill the bill.
"Voucher" is still considered a dirty word by some, but at least three governors agree that it's an idea whose time has come.
Pennsylvania's Neshaminy Federation of Teachers
has agreed to end its nearly two-week strike, and members will return to the classroom Friday morning. But that doesn't mean the nastiness is over.
The school board had refused to continue contract negotiations while the union was on strike, which means the disagreements about future pay raises, health insurance contributions and retroactive pay are still unresolved.
State law requires that a three-member arbitration panel be brought in to help assist negotiations, reports
. The panel will make its non-binding recommendations by spring. If the district and the union still cannot agree, the NFT has the legal option of going on strike a second time this school year.
School board
President Ritchie Webb
said that a second strike would prompt the district to file an injunction with the state, asking that the teachers be ordered back to work.
"Teachers need to understand that you can strike until the cows come home, but it doesn't create more money in the district," Webb said. "We have limited resources."
The community seems to have had enough of the NFT's selfish behavior, too.
"I think what the teachers are doing is greedy and insulting to us – the taxpayers," said
Tony Brillhart
, according to
. "We pay them to do a job, not walk in front of the schools with posters."
"They went to strike over greed and my daughter's education is forced to suffer because of it," said
Shawna Frey
, a sergeant in the
National Guard
who served in
Like we said, the strike might be over, but the dissension and hard feelings remain.
These days a lot of school budgets are being held together by the accounting equivalents of bailing wire and duct tape. But one Pennsylvania school district is so broke that it needs the state to provide the wire and the tape.
Chester Upland School District
began this week with only $100,000 in its savings account, and had no way of meeting its $1 million payroll – that is, until a judge ordered the state to give the district a $3.2 million advance in its allowance, reports the
Philadelphia Inquirer
The money will allow the teachers to be paid and the lights to remain on, at least for a few more weeks. The district is on track to be $20 million in debt by the end of the school year.
"Anxious parents are looking at other options for their children, such as sending them to private schools or having them live with relatives and go to other public schools," the
Daily Journal
reported two days before the bailout was announced.
What's causing Chester Upland's financial meltdown?
According to school officials, the state has been illegally giving some of the district's money to charter schools. State officials say the law requires it to fund the schools where students actually attend, and many choose to attend charter schools. A judge is expected to settle the dispute next month.
While the district might win its case in court, it seems destined to lose in the court of public opinion.
Since 2006, Chester Upland's enrollment has dropped by almost 1,000 students. During that same time, the district has increased its workforce by 145 employees, and its budget by $28 million, reports the
Members of the local teachers union have pledged to keep working "as long as they are individually able … even if they are not paid."
While that makes for a nice press release, the
has learned that none the district's three school employee unions have agreed to open their contracts and offer any concessions to help the district survive.
Just another financial crisis, courtesy of
Big Labor
Florida's Marion County
school district drew national headlines last summer when it announced that it was switching to a four-day school week as a way to save money.
Other school officials took a more conventional route by laying off teachers and cutting student programs, all the while blaming
Gov. Rick Scott
for underfunding Florida's public schools.
Now comes a report that finds 946 school employees in the Sunshine State earned at least $100,000 in 2010. That's up 818 percent from 2005, according to the
Foundation for Government Accountability
The foundation also finds the percentage of non-school employees who earn at least six-figures has increased by only 7 percent during that same period.
"You don't have to be great in math to figure out that something is wrong with these school salaries,"
Tarren Bragdon
, Foundation for Government Accountability CEO, told the
Sunshine State News
"During these five years, you have flat student enrollment, the biggest recession since the
Great Depression
and skyrocketing six-figure salaries – that adds up to a raw deal for Florida parents and taxpayers," Bragdon said.
The average salary for a Florida teacher is about $47,000, which means administrators and superintendents receive the majority of those hefty paydays.
Tea Party
Patricia Sullivan
summed it up best: "It appears the servant is now the master, and the children get the crumbs."

Ardis I. WardMarch 02,2013
Ardis I. WardArdis I. Ward
WINOOSKI Ardis Irene Ward of Winooski died in Fletcher Allen Health Care after suffering a heart attack on Monday, Feb. 25, 2013.
Born in Hartland on Jan. 22, 1925, to Watson D. Davis and Grace E. Colby, she attended Woodstock High School, Class of 43. Shortly after school, she married John F. Bowley Sr., a union which lasted 23 years and produced five children, John F., Thomas G., Susan D., Sheila I. and Shelly J. Bowley.
During her time in Hartland, she taught at 4H, co-founded the Hartland Riding Club with Connie Tessier and was its first president, sang in the North Hartland Methodist Church Choir, tended a large flower garden, and decorated her and others homes with her oil paintings. Though she could be described as a homemaker, her real calling was to inspire others with her joy for living and indomitable spirit in the face of a persistent struggle with multiple sclerosis.
Her second marriage to James A. Ward in 1971 gave her five stepchildren, Greg, Rodney, Gigi, Roger and James II, whom she loved as her own. After her children had grown, life brought her to Franklin, N.H., White River Junction, Vt., Somerville, Fla., and finally to Winooski.
She is survived by her loving husband of 42 years; 10 children; 27 grandchildren; 12 great-grandchildren; and a wide community of friends and relatives, whom she touched during her 88-year-long dance with life.
A memorial service will be held on March 16, 2013, at 1 p.m. at the LaVigne Funeral Home, 132 Main St. in Winooski. She will be memorialized in the Taftsville Cemetery, at rest with her parents and other family members.MORE IN ObituariesScott J. Full StoryJack Grald

"Agdz - (ag-a-dez)" Agdz by suvanki
Agdz Travel Guide: 29 reviews and 96 photos
Agdz is a small town, - ( a military town, which used to have a sizeable Jewish population, who were predominant in agriculture, commerce and metalworking) with a few shops, restaurants and hotels. Apparently there are a few carpet shops here!
Situated about halfway between Ouarzazate and Zagora, this town is utilised as a base for visiting the Draa Valley, or as a refreshment stop. There is a market held here too.
I visited this town (or rather passed through) twice as part of my tour, both times stopping for lunch at the Hotel Restaurant Draa.
The photogenic Jebel (Arabic for hill/mountain) Kissane is also known as Mount Tagine, due to its resemblence to the characteristic piling up of ingredients in this national dish!
From my photo you can see the palm grove (palmeraie), many of which can be seen before arriving in Agdz. The green foliage is an indication of the relatively good irrigation of the valley in this area. Dates, olives, almonds and citrus fruit are grown here. The most fertile area is the 100km stretch of road from Agdz to Zagora
The Draa River is one of the longest rivers in Morocco. Originating in the High Atlas Mountains, it's waters used to wind through the mountains and deserts, until they poured out into the Atlantic Ocean. However, nowadays, even after the snow in the mountains has melted, the force of water usually only makes it as far as the desert sands. (The last recorded flow of the full course was in 1989, when flash floods occured)
- Pros:Where else would you see a Tagine Mountain?
- Cons:Wasn't here long enough to find any
- In a nutshell:A good base for exploring the Draa Valley

CHICAGO – The Country Music industry has become as huge as any category of music entertainment. So Mark Roberts, the creator of the TV sitcom "Mike & Molly," has fashioned a boisterous new play about the machinations of that genre of music industry, and gave it the plaintive title of "New Country."

Found-Footage Fanboy Film 'Chronicle' is Aimlessly LostSubmitted by HollywoodChicago.com on February 4, 2012 - 12:37am
Rating: 2.0/5.0
CHICAGO – "Chronicle," which stars blah, blah and blah with a special appearance by blah (you wouldn't know these unknowns any way), is the latest found-footage film to find itself lost, lacking purpose and devoid of a cohesive plot. This film's fanboy ejaculate loves you short time as it spews the buildup of what could be interpreted as a "story" and ultimately ends without one.

He was dead against it and demanded that we stay elsewhere. His reason was, that Motel 6 was known for being a dive with a lot of riff raft coming and going. He also said that the place was known for being dirty with bugs and so forth. When we arrived in Ann Arbor I was dreading paying a lot of money to stay in a hotel so we could spend our money on other things. I suggested that we at least go to Motel 6 and ask if we could see a room before we booked one, that way if we didn't like it we could stay someplace else. My husband agreed so we went there and asked the clerk to see a room so we could decide whether we wanted to stay or not. She was more than happy to let us see the room first. We were amazed! It was clean, updated with a flat screen t.v., Wifi, fresh stocked towels, soap, drinking cups and more. My husband agreed right away that we stay there, but added that he wanted to only book one night to see how it went before we booked another. In the morning the first thing my husband said to me was hurry and go book the room because the place is filled and I want to make sure we can stay here again tonight. We felt we got more than what we paid for and were happy with our stay. Neither of us had a complaint about the room at all. We will be staying at that Motel 6 every time we visit that area. Because of the good experience with the Motel 6 we stayed at, I will be visiting Nashville Tenn. in October and have already found a motel 6 where I plan to stay during my whole vacation. Don't listen to the rumors of the past, the place has changed for the better and I'm glad there is still a decent motel I can afford to stay at.

Why we need pre-KApril 24,2014
Why we need pre-K
As my family struggled to decide this year whether we could afford to send our daughter to pre-kindergarten, I was outraged that quality, publicly funded preschool wasnt easily and widely available to all kids in our state. Research shows that quality early education, intervention and support make huge differences in a childs life. During their first few years, when childrens brains are developing rapidly, its important to form healthy foundations for future learning. Children with strong mental foundations are more likely to succeed in school, more likely to graduate from college and, therefore, more likely to become a healthy and productive member of our workforce. So if we want our children to be successful in life, we need to start by building healthy mental foundations during the years leading to kindergarten. Thats why I strongly support the passage of H.270 and encourage others to do the same. Passing this bill would create universal access to quality pre-kindergarten programs for children ages 3 to 5 in Vermont.
Please contact your legislators and tell them to vote for H.270 so we can give our children every opportunity to succeed.

Strength Training and Flexibility
Train each major muscle group two to three times per week, a minimum of one set of eight to 12 repetitions.
Lightly stretch the muscle groups used during your activity for eight to 12 seconds prior to exercise, and all major muscle groups for 20 seconds or longer post-exercise. The best way to rate one's ideal range is to take a stretch to the point of slight discomfort and hold the position, while avoiding any sensation of pain.
Charting Your Progress
Once you have decided on your overall fitness goal and your weekly workout plan, you need to log it, to make sure that you are sticking to the program. Your fitness chart should also include some reminders of where you started and how far you have come.
For example, if your goal is weight loss, jot down your weekly weight or measurements. If you're trying to improve your muscle tone, take some pictures or make notes to size up what is happening over the designated training period.
Don't be discouraged if you miss an intended workout or have a bad week. Instead, work harder the following week. And keep in mind that staying fit is a lifelong process that takes place in small, daily steps.

|Should You Become Executor of Someone's Estate?
|News Releases - Business, Economy & Finance
|Written by Steve Burke
|Monday, 12 August 2013 14:38
By Jason Alderman
One of the most important decisions you'll make when writing your will is determining who should be named executor of your estate. Even if you're just leaving behind household goods and a small savings account, someone – whether appointed by you or the state court – must settle your affairs.
Some people consider it an honor – or duty – to take responsibility for ensuring that their loved one's final wishes are carried out. But serving as an executor can be onerous and time-consuming, even for those with a strong financial or legal background. In a worst-case scenario, executors who act imprudently or in violation of their duties can be sued by beneficiaries and creditors.
Plus, you'll likely have to deal with the dreaded probate, a court-supervised process of locating and determining the value of the deceased's assets, paying final bills and taxes, and distributing what's left to the heirs.
Before you agree to serve as an estate's executor, make sure you understand what will be required of you. Major responsibilities often include:
In short, both parties should thoroughly understand what's required of an estate's executor to make sure it's a good fit. There's no shame in saying no if it's beyond your abilities, and plenty of professional help is available – and advisable – if you do need assistance.

The green light pulse 3 times at a time, don't know what that means, it doesn't fire up, I switched the gas and power off and on , nothing happened, any ideas??
Could be pressure switch. Large silver disklike item with hoses attached.
Carefully disconnect hoses and blow into them to clear. Some people use a paperclip if really gunked up.
Check for obstructions to air intake and exhaust.
Should be posted in HVAC section for more results.

JPAN I used the Specials 0x52 to the 0x55, and found a problem.
When we use the 0x52 or 0x54 to put a status on any of the pokemon (example: SLEEP), and when we use the 0x53 and 0x55 to "turn off" the special, everything is fine.
But .. when we catch the pokemon in question, it comes with with POISON status.
I found another problem.
When the routine is started, and the wild pokemon appearing on this being affected by it. Sometimes the status is only in Battlebox, but the pokemon in question is not suffering the damage status.
Example: A pokemon with SLEEP.
Sometimes the animation of Z (ZzZzZ. ..) does not appear, and the pokemon attacks us as if its status was normal.
No way to solve this problems?

Happy Mother's Day. To all the mothers, stand-in mothers, and godmothers out there, thank you for the love you share. That love knits our families, neighborhoods, and faith communities together.
This Mother's Day, NETWORK is asking you to be mindful of the many families, neighborhoods, and communities that are falling apart because loving parents are being torn from their families, due to our broken immigration system. Please honor mothers by calling on Congress to pass immigration reform that protects family unity and creates a path to citizenship. Call 1-866-940-2439 to reach your representative.
In a recent Washington Post op ed by Sister Simone Campbell, [2] she tells stories of struggling immigrant families she encountered on NETWORK's Nuns on the Bus tour for immigration reform. Here is one story she told about a mother facing deportation:
Angelina, an undocumented woman in North Carolina, was driving her three young children to school one morning when she was rear-ended by another driver. Being hit with small children in a car alone is enough to cause great concern, but the accident had far more disastrous consequences for Angelina and her family. Immediately, she was placed in the back of a police car and taken away; her small children were left alone with police officers who scrambled to reach another adult so the children could get to school.
|Click to see a video clip [3] in which Angelina and her children speak for themselves about their dire situation. The clip is shared courtesy of the documentary film Nuns on the Bus - The Movie [4], now in production. (The website hosting the video clip also has information about how you can help the filmmakers finish the film. Scroll down to see Angelina's story, which is under the heading: Mother's Day.)
If Angelina's story moves you, stand with mothers everywhere and honor them by calling your representative at 1-866-940-2439. Leave a message to say the time is now for the House to pass immigration reform that includes citizenship. Let your representative know Congress can honor mothers best by listening to the desperation of families and responding by restoring immigrants' dignity. This number will give you a prompt and connect you to your representative's Washington DC office, but you can also find your representative's direct line at www.house.gov. [5]

This has led to them becoming pretty legendary in the music world. With plenty of awards and critical acclaim to their name, BOSS continues to put the "stomp" in "stompbox."
BOSS pedals are a staple on the boards of some of the biggest artists out there touring today. Names like John Frusciante of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Todd Gummerman of Mutemath, Alex Rosamilia of the Gaslight Anthem, Pete Steinkopf of the Bouncing Souls, Josh Epstein of Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr., and more all consider BOSS pedals to be absolute staples in their setup. No doubt, you're going to feel the same way in a hurry.
So this begs the question of which BOSS gear is perfect for you? That's going to be a matter of personal preference. The good news is that there are plenty of options available here, so you're sure to find everything you need. When you're browsing this section, you may want to start by looking at our best sellers. For example, the ME-80 Guitar Multi-Effects Pedal is an option that is loaded with tone and features, all in an easy to use knob-based interface. User friendly and incredibly intuitive, this pedal includes a huge selection of effects, ranging from iconic BOSS sounds to more modern MDP effects, making it ideal for gigging guitarists. Best of all, this pedal runs on either AA batteries or a PSA-series adapter, so it will always be ready to go.
Another great and incredibly practical option from BOSS is the TU-3 Chromatic Pedal Tuner. This tuner provides an easy to read display that is visible in nearly any lighting condition. Able to tune both six and seven string guitars, as well as basses, this tuner is sure to become a staple in every performer's gig bag.
