Average Customer Review: based on 1 reviews.Rating: zeagle tank pouch
8079 Tank Pouch
Holds 20 cu ft Redundant Air System
2 stainless steel snaps
Mounts on most Zeagle BCs
If you are doing deeper dives, or dives in an extended overhead environment, then you need that added time that a larger cylinder will give. The Zeagle 20 cu ft Pony Bottle System is a Totally Redundant Breathing System that includes a 20 cu ft Aluminum Cylinder, a Zeagle RaZor Regulator/Valve Combination with a 36' hose and a balanced Envoy 2nd stage. The system weighs roughly 12lbs (empty).
Note: There are MANY different ways to mount the 20 cu ft Pony Bottle System Redundant System to your BC. Every way of mounting extra tanks (valve-up, valve-down, valve-left, valve-right, etc.) has supporters and detractors. If you don't see your favorite method below, be assured that you can mount it in your preferred fashion as well.

Hey there...and Welcome to the Guild! It's not so very terrible.
The first thing that pops out at me is that your building bevel would look better if it was just on the buildings (red shapes) instead of on the overall building blocks, which include some alleyways. Not sure how that has happened in your map but maybe your alleyways aren't fully erased? Also a bit of a harder "crease" on the bevel might crisp them up a bit. I'm not a GIMP expert so I'm not sure which buttons to push or I'd give something specific. If you get some of this worked out and are feeling adventurous you might think about some color variations in the roofs.
Some ground and water texture would help out.
Looks like you've tried to use some "found" floorplans for the cathedral, keep, and high castle. They're cool but not blending with the style you've put together. I'd suggest maybe using those as references and creating them from scratch in your map. Also, these are showing the building interiors, which is breaking the impression of a bird's eye view of your town.
The forests look pretty good but get a little "wiggly" because of the broad fuzzy band that's around them. Is that a drop shadow?
The mountains are very abrupt, but the shapes and coloring are nice. Ideally you'd like to maybe have some rock surface poking out from at least a little vegetation. Maybe you can put a layer over them and paint in some...or drop them below your grass layer and erase out a bit.
I like your dock shapes...pretty cool. Maybe distinguish them in color a bit from the sandy road color?
The rivers look pretty good and the coastline is nice, especially in the lower right. Rounding off a couple of those little islands might be nice...as they are the first impression is that of a small river that runs coast to coast rather than an island.
Don't think I said so already but I like the overall shape and flow of your town's layout. The mix of building shapes and sizes is good too!
Have some rep for getting rolling!

(USA Today) -- Search teams resumed the hunt on foot and in the air under clearer skies Saturday in the mountains east of Los Angeles for a fugitive ex-cop who has eluded hundreds of heavily armed police after a five-day revenge killing spree.
Christopher Dorner, 33, is wanted in connection with a double homicide and the killing of a police officer in a rampage that police say stems from his dismissal from the Los Angeles Police Department in 2008.
Police swarmed into the Big Bear Lake ski area in the San Bernardino mountains 80 miles east of Los Angeles Thursday after Dorner's burned-out pickup was found. They followed his tracks into the forest until they petered out on frozen ground and amid new snowfall.
Helicopters with heat-sensing technology were being used Saturday to search for any sign of the renegede former cop who declared in an online manifesto that he is bent on revenge against law enforcement officials and their families.
Officers have also been going door-to-door, checking lodges, huts and unoccupied cabins, and trekking through snowy forests at this popular resort nestled in jagged peaks at an elevation of 7,000 feet.
The Sun newspaper of San Bernardino, Calif., citing unnamed officials, reported that an arsenal of weapons and survival gear was found inside Dorner's burned-out pickup truck.
A spokeswoman for the Irvine police, who were taking the truck as evidence in their double-murder investigation, said the truck's axle appeared to have been damaged. But Lt. Julia Engen said Saturday that it was unknown whether the damage occurred before the fire, when Dorner was driving it on a remote, unpaved forest road, or when it was towed from the forest by authorities Thursday afternoon.
KTLA-TV, quoting a source with knowledge of the investigation, reportedthat footprints appeared to show that Dorner doubled back into the community after his vehicle broke down, but that it was unclear where he may have gone from there or by what means.
"The possibility exists that he is here, somewhere in the forest, so we're going to keep looking ... until we determine that he's not here," Cindy Bachman, spokesperson for the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, told reporters Friday night..
Bachman confirmed that Dorner's mother owns undeveloped property in Arrowbear, about 35 miles away from the scene. She said authorities searched and cleared that site.
READ - Suspect's manifesto:
The manhunt, however, was not confined to this mountainous areas. Thousands of heavily armed police remained on the lookout throughout California, Nevada, Arizona and northern Mexico for a suspect they say is bent on revenge and willing to die.
Jamie Usera, an attorney in Salem, Ore., who befriended Dorner when they were students and football teammates at Southern Utah University, said he introduced him to the outdoors. Originally from Alaska, Usera said, he taught Dorner about hunting and other outdoor activities.
"Of all the people I hung out with in college, he is the last guy I would have expected to be in this kind of situation," Usera, who said he had had lost touch with Dorner inrecent years, told the Los Angeles Times.
Heavy patrols and watches were especially vigilant in the Los Angeles area because of Dorner's threats against police officers and their families.
"We hope it ends quickly without any more bloodshed or anyone else getting hurt,'' Los Angeles police Cmdr. Andrew Smith said. "We are prepared to go as long as it takes. We're in it for the long haul.''
Police say Dorner has taunted authorities through a manifesto filled with vows of revenge on police officers and their families.
Irvine (Calf.) Police Chief David Maggard named Dorner Wednesday night as the suspect in the slayings of Monica Quan, 28, an assistant basketball coach at California State University-Fullerton, and her fiance, Keith Lawrence, a University of Southern California campus security officer.
The couple were found dead of multiple gunshot wounds in their car outside their Irvine condominium Sunday night.
Quan was the daughter of Randy Quan, a retired LAPD captain who represented Dorner in the review process that led to his dismissal from the force for making false statements.
Randy Quan was the first Chinese-American to attain the rank of captain on the LAPD force, the department has said. He later served as chief of police at Cal Poly-Pomona, part of the California State University system.
Maggard said Dorner implicated himself in the killings in the manifesto.
"When the truth comes out, the killing stops," the document reads. "The attacks will stop when the department states the truth about my innocence. PUBLICLY!!! I will not accept any type of currency/goods in exchange for the attacks to stop, no do I want it. I want my name back, period. There is no negotiation."
He is also wanted in the shooting of three Los Angeles-area police officer on Thursday, one of whom died.
The police headquarters building in downtown Los Angeles was ringed by officers on foot and parked patrol cars, and snipers were in place on the roof in case the wanted ex-cop who vowed warfare against police and their families made a move there. Other police stations throughout the area had heavy visible protection as well.
In an ll-page document, the author baited authorities.
"Any threat assessments you generate will be useless," it read. "I have the strength and benefits of being unpredictable, unconventional, and unforgiving."
Dorner served in the Navy, earning a rifle marksman ribbon and pistol expert medal. He was assigned to a naval undersea warfare unit and various aviation training units, according to military records. He took leave from the LAPD for a six-month deployment to Bahrain in 2006 and 2007.
"Here's the bottom line: We don't know if he's on foot or not," Los Angeles Deputy Chief Kirk Albanese told the Associated Press. "Is he on foot up on the mountain? Is he down the mountain? We don't know."

Our highest-performing, most durable, feature-rich waders utilize our H2No® Performance Standard midweight fabric at the chest and heaviest-weight fabric throughout the body; with a TIZIP® front zipper; wool-lined booties have abrasion-resistant soles.
Patagonia developed the 4-layer fabric construction for our waders to increase breathability and abrasion resistance, move moisture away from the body, and decrease the weight.
Our exterior fabrics are densely woven 100% polyester microfibers for durability and puncture resistance. On one side we apply our H2No® waterproof coating for waterproof/breathable performance. On the other side we apply a Hydrophilic laminate that pulls moisture away from the body so it can be passed out through the exterior shell.
To protect the hydrophilic laminate we use a soft polyester tricot lining that increases abrasion resistance yet maintains a soft, supple drape.
Finally, we apply a DWR (durable water repellent) treatment as the first line of defense in keeping these waders waterproof.
We promote fair labor practices, safe working conditions and environmental responsibility throughout the Patagonia supply chain.

To the editor:
According to a May 6 front-page article in The Daily News headlined, �Land shuffle looms,� the Onslow County Board of Commissioners were contemplating selling the S. T. Wooten Corporation land in Burton Park for $20,000 per acre. In that same article, The Daily News reported that the commissioners are considering paying $40,000 for a half acre of land and the seller will donate the other half acre to build an access road to connect the county�s Multi-Purpose Complex to Burton Park.
My question is: What makes an acre in Burton Park worth $20,000 and an adjacent half acre worth double the price � $40,000?
Two days later, in an May 8 article on the second page headlined, �Onslow board OKs new tenant for industrial park,� the county commissioners approved the sale of the Burton Park land to the S. T. Wooten Corp. for $20,000 an acre. Obviously, land in the vicinity of Burton Park is worth $20,000 an acre.
I normally advocate against the use of eminent domain; however, if the half-acre is so crucial as to warrant the expenditure of $40,000, why not declare eminent domain and take both halves of this all-important acre and compensate its owners at the same price that the board of commissioners sold the next-door acreage to the S. T. Wooten Corporation?
I don�t know about the rest of the Onslow County taxpayers, but I smell an offensive odor? I don�t know if the odor is emanating from Burton Park, the board of commissioners or the owners of the all-important acre of land who are trying to rip off their fellow Onslow County taxpayers � or some combination thereof. I fear the worst.
If I were an Onslow County commissioner, before I would approve payment of double the going rate, I would continue to have county vehicles drive the existing route and let the owners sit on their precious acre of land. I would further assess the tax value of this all-important acre at $80,000. Why? If the half-acre is worth $40,000, the whole acre must be double that � or $80,000. If the owners �donate� the other half of acre, will they then receive a $40,000 tax write off from their county, state and federal tax returns? In my opinion, it is this type of jack-up-the-price rip-off that contributes to the high costs of government projects.

Good work Mark, love the detail and the room key you always include.
With the 69th Map of the Week we continue in the borderlands town of Óðinn's House in the Kingdom of Slovania. This week we take a look at the Star Temple, a temple that serves the twin star spirits Jitroní (Morning Star) and Večerní (Evening Star), known as the Zorja. Two shamans (both clerics), the 78-year-old Hermína and the 27-year-old Jiřina, serve here. They are the main sources of divine healing, resurrections, etc., in the Slovanian borderlands.
Key to the Star Temple
Ground Floor Main Temple Building
The many spiral stairways lead to meditation towers.
1. Entryways.
2. Seating Area. One of the main pursuits of Zorja was to teach followers how to find the path to enlightenment. The stone benches are mostly empty today. Hermína and Jiřina have little opportunity to teach.
3. Starlight Altar. In earlier times when more worshippers came to the temple, the altar was the point from which the shamans did their teaching. It is used only rarely today.
4. Statue of Jitroní, the morning star.
5. Statue of Večerní, the evening star.
Ground Floor Shamans' Building
4. Statue of Jitroní, the morning star.
5. Statue of Večerní, the evening star.
6. Entry.
7. Reception. Jiřina can question quests through the window. If she decides to admit visitors to the inner areas, she will require them to turn over all weapons, which are kept in area 10 until the visitors depart. This also is the point where Jiřina will sell potions. She will make clear that the temple does not gurantee success, but that the fees, which must be paid in advance, are not refunded in the case of failure. Jiřina will not negotiate the fees, but she will negotiate over the form in which the fees are paid (i.e. coinage, jewels, etc.).
8. Inner Entry.
9. Corridor.
10. Shamans' Workroom. In this area, he shamans have the laboratory where they make potions. The shelves contain work materials and documentation.
11. Interview Room. When visitors seek healing and are admitted, they are brought into this room. Injured visitors and dead bodies can be placed upon the bed. Their companions will be invited to sit on the couches. Jiřina sits behind the desk and negotiates what will be done and the fees that are required. She will make clear that the temple does not gurantee success, but that the fees, which must be paid in advance, are not refunded in the case of failure. The shamans will not negotiate the fees, but they will negotiate over the form in which the fees are paid (i.e. coinage, jewels, etc.).
12. Star Chamber Entry.
13. Star Chamber. This area is the entryway to the Star Tower above. This area also is protected by star magic that suppresses normal, non-clerical magic.The star forms in the floor are symbols made of tin. They have no magical properties.
14. Slab. The wounded and dead who are the targets of rites are placed upon the slab. The magic of the shamans elevates them to the Star Tower above. The shamans and other vistors use the spiral stairway.
15. Entry to the Shamans' Quarters.
16. Corridor.
17. Bath Chamber with Jakes.
18. Jiřina's Chamber.
19. Hermína's Chamber.
20. Supply Room.
21. Living Room.
22. Kitchen.
Second Story Main Temple Building
23. Meditation Towers for Worshippers.
24. Meditation Towers for the Shamans.
Second Story Shamans' Building, the Star Tower
The Zorja are two, and they require that two shamans perform all rites together.
25. Slab. The wounded and dead who are the targets of rites are placed upon the slab on the ground floor and magically elevated into the Star Tower. The shamans and other vistors use the spiral stairway.
26. The Great Bell. The first step in the performance of any rite is Jiřina's ringing of the bell.
27. Desk with Documentation.
28. Stellar Altar. Hermína begins her part of the rites here. When she ascends to the Star Dome (Area 30), Jiřina moves to the altar and continues her part of the rites here.
29. Summoning Circle. While Hermína performs her initial part of the rites at the Stellar Altar (Area 2, Jiřina stands in the middle of the circle and summons the power of the stars into the tower.
30. Spiral Stairway and Star Dome. The stairway begins on the ground floor and continues to the star dome in the roof of the shamans' building. Hermína ascends the stairway to the Star Dome for her final parts of the rites.
31. Star Globes. After Jiřina has succeeded in summoning the power of the stars into the tower from area 29, the five glowing star globes of power will appear at the locations shown. Each star globe is deadly, with the same power as a starburst. The globes vanish when the rite is completed.
The maps above are reduced in size. You can get the full-sized maps in two versions:
1. The Fractal Mapper (TM) 8 map in FMP format, fully editable, from our Jörðgarð web page (11 MB).
2. Two JPG flat maps of 3000 Pixels x 2120 Pixels each (5.4 MB), available above.

GLEN DALE - The icing on the cake tasted a little sweeter following John Marshall's 69-49 victory against Union Local on Senior Night at the John Marshall gymnasium Monday.
A large dose of defense and a balanced scoring attack saw to that.
"I don't want to say our defense dictated the game overall, but it certainly was some icing on the cake," John Marshall coach Mark McCormick said.
Indeed it was, as the Monarchs 3-2 zone put the clamps down on Union Local scoring machine Cori Medley (nine points) and her teammates in the convincingly sweet victory.
"There were two things I told the girls we had to accomplish going into this game," McCormick said. "One, we had to keep Cori Medley in check and we had to dominate the boards. Doing that all goes back to toughness. I preach toughness. We knew it was going to be a physical game, and it was. We did a good job on Medley. She's a player who can score 22, 23 points a game. And, with the exception of a few baskets where we didn't block out in the first (quarter), we did a great job on the boards. We played good sound defense. We did a great job on the boards. I couldn't be any happier."
There wasn't much McCormick didn't like, as Tori Derrow poured in 21 points and grabbed 13 rebounds and senior Emily Winters added 16 points and 10 rebounds to help John Marshall improve to 9-5.
Winters got the party started early, leading the Monarchs to a 21-12 lead after one. She had six points and five rebounds in the quarter, setting the tone for the rest of the evening.
Derrow had 10 of the Monarchs' 13 second-half points, as she dominated the glass (four rebounds, three for putbacks) allowing the Monarchs to keep that nine-point lead at the break.
It was JM's zone that continually led the turnovers and subsequent transition points that kept Union Local at bay.
"I don't know how many turnovers we had, but it was a lot," Union Local coach Kelly Hammond said. "Their defense gave us problems. And we got beat on the boards. Turnovers and rebounds were the difference. We kept yelling for them to block out but (John Marshall) continued to get a lot of second and third chances. That really limited our possession, them getting so many second chances."
Medley couldn't get untracked early, scoring just two points in the first half as the Monarchs grabbed a 34-25 halftime lead.
By the time she did find some success inside, John Marshall had gone up by double figures.
"We came out in a 3-2 zone, but it wasn't a typical 3-2," McCormick said. "We had one of our wings sag down inside a little bit and kind of double Medley. That caused them some problems."
Amanda Swallie, another Jets player capable of putting up double-digit numbers, was held to seven points, all of those coming in the first half.
"We usually have four to six girls who can score double figures," Hammond said. "We didn't have that (Monday night)."
McCormick started his four seniors, Justice Watson, Hailee Cunningham, Sissy George and Winters and all contributed in some fashion.
"We rely heavily on them and they all responded in giving us a lead after the first quarter," McCormick said. "Our other girls really look to them and they set the tone."
Derrow, a sophomore, also responded, with her second straight big game, coming off the heels of a 32-point effort against rival Wheeling Park last week.
"She is a sophomore, and she isn't even 16 years old yet," McCormick said. "She had a real good game against Park, and I think that really was a stepping stone for her, and for the team. She is the type of player who can be a difference maker on the offensive and the defensive end. Sometimes she doesn't understand that, but I think she is starting to really come around and be the player we expect her to be."
John Marshall also received nine points from George and Abby Namath. Cunningham added eight.
Along with Medley's nine points, Union Local (11-5) got nine points from Kylie Russell and Kaitlyn Clark-Patterson. Delaney joined Swallie with seven.

Story by Kanara Ty & Ethel Navales.
Sex is often a taboo topic among Asians. As a result, you have some Asian women who view sex as dirty, some who have no knowledge of sex (and no knowledge of proper means of protection), and some who do engage in sex and are judged harshly for it.
This may account for the married couple in the city of Wuhan, China who made headlines in 2011 for spending three years believing that lying next to each other would result in pregnancy. Although both individuals were college graduates, it's safe to assume that neither had any form of sex education.
While many big cities in China have more modern attitudes towards sex, rural areas still refuse to teach sex education. In fact, some Chinese parents encourage abstinence and use sex as a scare tactic. One woman claimed her mother told her sex was like being shot with a gun. It's no wonder the subject became taboo and many Chinese young adults learned to either fear the act or consider sex shameful.
Although this attitude towards sex changes quite a bit for Asian Americans, there is no denying that the topic itself is rather taboo for many Asians. Seeing as sex is a normal part of life, we've decided it would be more healthy for everyone to talk about it.
For starters, we've brought you some statistics to show that sex is in fact a common and perfectly normal activity. Check out Audrey's SEX-tistics below.

Seattle, WA (Sports Network) - Tyrone Watson scored 26 points and Bandja Sy
came a rebound shy of a double-double as the New Mexico State Aggies outlasted
the Seattle Redhawks, 83-82, in double-overtime in a Western Athletic
Conference battle at KeyArena.
Sy scored 23 points and Daniel Mullings added 19 for New Mexico State
(9-8, 3-2 WAC) which has won three straight.
Prince Obasi had 15 points and 11 rebounds and Clarence Trent had 15 points
and 10 rebounds before fouling out for Seattle (5-9, 0-4). Louis Green had 15
points off the bench and D'Vonne Pickett Jr. provided 13 points for the
Redhawks who have lost four straight.
After a tightly contested first half New Mexico State led 36-34 after shooting
44.1 percent from the field which was a bit better than Seattle, which hit on
40.0 percent of its shots in the first period.
The Redhawks had a 67-64 lead with 31 seconds remaining after Pickett Jr. hit
a pair of free throws. However Sy nailed a 3-pointer with seven seconds
remaining to send the game to overtime
Trailing by three with 20 seconds remaining in the first overtime, Seattle got
a 3-pointer from Pickett Jr. to knot the game up and when an Obasi shot was
off the mark in the final seconds the game went into a second overtime.
A 6-2 spurt form New Mexico State to open the second extra session put the
Aggies ahead for good as they held on for the victory.
The game featured 15 ties and 14 lead changes. The two teams combined for 45

Improving reverse logistics strategy
November 10, 2010
One of the basic tenets of the Boy Scout code is to "leave no trace" when vacating a campsite. The same rule applies to proper supply chain management, according to some former scouts now serving as prominent reverse logistics practitioners.
"We owe it to our community and future generations," says Gary Cullen, chief operating officer of 4PRL, the reverse logistics operation of The Georgetowne Group, a consultancy based in Clarksville, Md. "Consumer buying patterns in the past were more conservative and therefore pushed product obsolescence to a larger window—three to five years for a television, for example," he adds.
"But now, consumers want the newest television set on the market. One year it's the flat screen, the next it's got to be 3D." And just as "secondary markets" exist in the financial world to offer investment alternatives, a similar convention helps manufacturers repurpose their supply chains.
"There are new revenue streams to be explored," says Dale Rogers, the incoming director for Supply Chain Management at Rutgers University. "The secondary markets are effective in diverting a large number of products from landfill and creating numerous jobs."

I rarely like describing myself. Because I would always continue trying to improve on my description without lying to people. Like using more descriptive words or expanding on a topic.

- San Francisco
So here it is, quick and simple:
I'm Asian, 5'9" - 5'10", weigh ~135lbs.
I Wrestle, I run Cross-Country, I run Track and Field
I'm a Dragon Boat Paddler and Steersmen
I'm shy to people who don't know me.
I'm relatively loud and "persistent" to those that do know me.
I'm a sucker for emotional Anime [Clannad, Kanon, Air, Angel Beats, what have you done with my heart?! =0 (By the way, you should totally watch these Anime. They'll make you cry in the oh so good way of crying.)]
I'm really into videogame music, especially Boss themes. Atmospheric and emotional music fit my bill as well.
(Look up "Searching for Friends" - Final Fantasy 6 , "Unite, Descent" - Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles , "End of Summer" - Touhou 7.5 Immaterial and Missing Power , "Crime of the Heart" - Rudra no Hihou for some references to what I mean.)
I'm a Touhou fan. You should be one too.
Especially since Touhou Music is so freaking epic. My favorite Touhou games are Touhou 9 - Phantasmagoria of Flower View (Because it's the only game where I can beat Lunatic Difficulty. Just kidding, but seriously, its one of the few Touhou games I'm actually decent at.) and Touhou 10.5 - Scarlet Weather Rhapsody (which is also one of the few games that I excel in).
That is all (For now)

Chronically weak and timid, but with a heart of solid gold, you tend to require and depend on the help of your friends in most situations. You enjoy their company, but also enjoy solitude and time away from your friends where you can enjoy the sounds of nature. Just because you know you're weak doesn't mean it holds you back, because you know you're strong where it counts, with your overabundance of kindness, caring, and compassion.
You're often worried about saying or doing the wrong things and also fear rejection. Speaking of fear, you've got a lot of it, often times letting your fear hold you back from doing even the most simple of things, such as jumping across a cliff. But in that fear, you can often find just enough bravery to stand up for doing the right thing if your friends need you.
You may be naive and innocent, and you're very shy and quiet, but you're also a very good listener and are likely the one your friends blab on about their problems to — and while you may feel powerless to help at times, just listening and cheering them on means the world to them. Yay!
In the shadow of a dungeon a god-killer prepares to escape from the world by destroying it.On the other side of the continent, another man wakes up in a field with no memory and among strangers.His past lies locked in the fragments of his dreams, but in an attempt to remember he will be forced to retrace the god-killer's footsteps and set off a series of events that will plunge the land into chaos.
This is the story of their war to control fate, whatever the cost.

The Mormons send their young adults on a 'mission' to try and acquire converts to their religion. Romney used this 'act of faith' to escape his draft call during Viet Nam...he was in Paris 'ministering'.
Anyhow,I was in Tokyo some years ago at the Meiji Shrine, a major Shinto shrine in that country and was disheartened to see young Mormon kids trying to grab off the daily Japanese visiters who were practicing their own native 2000 year old religious devotions. It takes a lot of gall to push a cult of mysterious gold tablets reportedly found a century earlier in America on foreigners. Embarrassing.

Barry Obama, April 19, 2011 " there's something about the resurrection -- something about the resurrection of our savior, Jesus Christ... he took on the sins of the world... and he extended to us that unfathomable gift of grace and salvation through his death and resurrection."
So rover, compared to finding a few gold plates, it seems you would find Obama's "pushing" on Americans cultish religious beliefs like virgin births, angels rejoicing, and eternal salvation through the dead rising a little embarrassing, too. LOL

Help. I use Zimbra in my work environment, and have now downloaded the Zimbra client to my own machine. I love Zimbra, but I am having a couple of problems:
1. When I attempt to add an email address to my empty address book, I click "new contact" to enter that information, and that is as far as it goes.
2. When attempting to import or export my addresses, using a CSV format, I am finding that nothing is happening there, either. Zimbr appears to be importing, but my addresses are not there.
Can someone please help me with this, or tell me what I am doing wrong?.
Thank you for your help.

Tampa, FL-- Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman is set to return to the game action, Tuesday, against the Capitals.
Hedman has missed 13 games over the past month, after suffering a concussion in the Flyers' game Dec. 27.
He's been practicing with the team, and has received clearance to play from team doctors.
"I feel good. It's been a long road back, after being out such a long time," Hedman said after Monday night's practice at the Tampa Bay Times Forum. "I wanted to come back right away. But this is what I do for a living, this is what I love to do, so it will be fun to come back and play again."

New ocean cargo agreement gets closer to reality
October 30, 2013
The much anticipated P3 Network vessel-sharing agreement has been submitted to the Federal Maritime Commission. If approved, it will give Maersk, MSC and CMA CGM the ability to discuss and agree on the size, number and operational characteristics of vessels to be operated on transatlantic and transpacific trade lanes.
The P3 network agreement also includes the Asia-Europe trade – which is not subject to the Shipping Act or FMC jurisdiction.
According to Drewry Maritime Research, competitors of the P3 alliance will introduce only moderate capacity growth in its forthcoming schedules between Asia/Europe and Asia/North America, but its new services are a stark reminder of the "awesome" size of Maersk/MSC/CMA CGM's combined resources.
Maersk, MSC and CMA CGM have opted for only moderate vessel capacity growth in their new schedules that take effect during 2Q 14, inferring that service quality rather than quantity will be the P3 alliance's main fighting tool. In the case of Asia/Northern Europe, just a 2.25% increase is planned compared to the capacity offered at the beginning of September.
There will also be one less weekly service, although this will be more than compensated by a 14% increase in average vessel capacity, up to 13,032 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs), including the deployment of more 18,000 TEU vessels from Maersk.
Neil Dekker, Drewry's head of container research, notes that there will also be one less weekly service between Asia and the Mediterranean, adding that it is not yet possible to assess the impact of this on capacity as vessel deployment within the new services remains to be clarified.
"However, here again, the reduction will probably be more than compensated by the cascading of 10 larger 'ultra large container vessels' no longer required between Asia and Northern Europe," says Dekker. "It has only been confirmed so far that the P3's new services will deploy vessels between 8,500 TEU and 16,000 TEU, but as the 64 vessels currently deployed there already average 10,467 TEU, that does not mean much."

I have given much thought to Richard Stoecker's letter ("Vote for Mormon against beliefs," June 15). I am also a Christian and differ with the Mormon religion.
But I think any Christian should spend much time in prayer before refusing to vote for a family man with high morals, business experience, who is against abortion, and shares Christian conviction concerning homosexuality just because he is a Mormon.
Any Christian who does not vote or writes in a name is casting a vote for Romney's opponent, Barack Hussein Obama — a man who sat in Jeremiah Wright's church for years, did not hold a public ceremony to mark the National Day of Prayer, and is a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage.
I hope all Christians give their vote prayerful consideration because voting is a sacred privilege and a serious responsibility.

There continue to be far too many incidences of bullying of young people, as well as discrimination and violence against people of all ages, based on their sexual orientation, and I believe there is value in making clear where I stand.
"The fact is, I'm gay, always have been, always will be, and I couldn't be any more happy, comfortable with myself, and proud."

While anti-urban Cincinnatians gripe over the twice-approved $95 million streetcar project — some going so far as to attach anti-funding amendments to federal bills that will never be included in the final legislation — authorities on the other side of the river are demonstrating just how little $20 million on transportation funding can provide. The state will widen KY 237 in Boone County using elevated ramps to allow for left-hand turns, adding a freeway-style element to the residential/corridor area. The two-year project will be paid for using Federal Surface Transportation Program funds.

Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls responded to Rep. Steve Chabot's Wednesday attempt to block federal funding for Cincinnati's streetcar construction by calling it "an outrageous interference in local government decision-making." The Enquirer today recapped the situation, which involves Chabot adding the following amendment to a massive federal transportation bill: "None of the funds made available by this Act may be used to design, construct, or operate a fixed guideway project located in Cincinnati, Ohio." The amendment has little chance at being included in the final passage of the bill, as the Senate and President Obama would both have to approve and sign it.
A parody video of a Western & Southern PR representative explaining why the insurance company should build condos at the site of the century-old women's shelter has earned a response from W&S.

"We think it's a distraction from finding a win-win for all involved." The video is no longer available on YouTube, however, due to "a copyright claim by Canipre inc."

City Council is expected to vote this morning to divert the $4 million for the City Hall atrium project to jumpstart the Music Hall renovation, which has brought the city and arts supporters interested in owning and operating the historic venue closer to a compromise. Council could vote on the renegotiated deal later Wednesday, though details of the lease agreement have yet to be released.
Council is also expected to approve a property tax increase of $10 per $100,000 in valuation to fund capital projects such as a new West Side police station and additional road paving.

It was "Rich People Voice Their Concerns Night" at city councils across town last night, as proponents of the $1 sale of Music Hall packed Cincinnati City Council chambers even though the proposed lease deal wasn't on the agenda. Mayor Mark Mallory insisted that any middle ground that will allow the nonprofit Music Hall Revitalization Co. to renovate the building will require that the city retain ownership.
Across town (and about 10 miles northeast toward the area with mass trees), Madeira City Council shot down a plan to develop a luxury apartment complex on Camargo Road. Council voted 6-1 to scrap the plan for a 184-unit complex after residents who voiced concern said the complex would be "too dense" and take away from the city's single-family character. Word on the street is that the Council majority didn't want scumbag renters like this guy to be able to move into the neighborhood and start playing music really loud out of their car stereos.
Cincinnati City Council yesterday pretty much canceled its plans to build an atrium at City Hall. Six council members approved a motion asking administrators to shut it down, and City Manager Milton Dohoney says he'll abide by it even though he technically doesn't have to because the funding was approved in a spending ordinance.
Council also voted yesterday to keep the property tax rate pretty much the same next year despite a projected deficit.

The library says it is not subject to the Freedom of Information Act and that all are welcome to see the documents in 2014. The super PAC, American Bridge 21st Century, has been researching GOP candidates as Mitt Romney moves closer to choosing a running mate.
"When you look at the roster of V.P. candidates, each of them is significantly flawed," American Bridge senior adviser Ty Matsdorf said in a statement. "For Portman, it is his calamitous record on fiscal issues while working at the Bush White House. It shouldn't be a shock that he is going to want to keep that under wraps for as long as possible, but unfortunately it's pretty hard to hide a record as terrible as that."

For me, the ideal use case for this product is the one where when you're out with a group of people whom you've recently met and want to stay in contact with.

A Cincinnati police officer with a long record of wrecking police vehicles was arrested on Monday and charged with assaulting a woman who he's already been charged with assaulting once before. The Enquirer detailed the disciplinary history of officer Kevin Jones, who was also charged with two counts of assault from an incident that occurred May 19.
Politico says President Obama's recent announcement of a new immigration policy that allows many young immigrants who have never been in trouble with the law to stay in the country, and even travel across its borders, was a really smart move. The policy is not permanent, which leaves Mitt Romney to answer the question of whether or not he would repeal it if elected. The idea is reportedly similar to legislation that Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, a potential Romney running mate, has been considering introducing.
"This is a stroke of political genius," Bruce Morrison told me. A former Democratic congressman from Connecticut, Morrison was chairman of the House Immigration Subcommittee, a member of the U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform and House author of the Immigration Act of 1990. He's now an immigration attorney and lobbies on a wide variety of immigration issues.
"Obama has taken Rubio's idea and put it into action," Morrison said. "He has given these people a work permit, the ability to remain in this country, but no permanent status." Their legal status can be terminated at any time. "But it won't be terminated by Obama," Morrison said.
A breast cancer survivor who has undergone a double mastectomy has been allowed to swim topless by the Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation after stating that wearing a bathing suit over her chest causes pain.

"My ultimate goal is to change policy at beaches and pools, to increase people's awareness of cancer and the realities of the human condition," Jaecks told Reuters.
LeBron James and the Miami Heat won the NBA title last night, completing a 4 games to 1 series victory over the Oklahoma Thunder. It is the first title for James, who has been widely mocked for stating that he'd like to win more titles than Michael Jordan's six.

Virginia Workers Compensation
If you have been injured on the job or diagnosed with an occupational injury, you may be entitled to benefits such as medical treatment and replacement wages under Virginia workers' compensation laws. U.S. government employees are also entitled to workers' comp benefits under federal laws. A workers' compensation attorney can help ensure that you receive the benefits you deserve.
Are You Covered by Workers' Compensation Insurance?
In Virginia, all employers with at least three employees are required to provide workers' compensation insurance to employees beginning on their first day of employment. Employers pay the full cost of workers' comp premiums and must provide coverage to part-time and full-time employees.
Employers with fewer than three employees may voluntarily provide workers' comp insurance. Companies that operate coal mines must provide coverage regardless of how many employees they have.
What Injuries Are Covered?
Injuries typically covered by workers' comp include:
- Traumatic physical injuries
- Repeated trauma injuries
- Mental injuries
- Occupational disease
What Workers' Compensation Benefits Can You Receive?
If you are hurt at work or diagnosed with an occupational injury, you may be entitled to benefits that include:
- Lifetime medical care for the work-related injury or illness
- Temporary disability benefits designed to partially or totally replace lost wages if you were unable to work for more than seven days or if you return to work doing a lighter job at a lower wage
- Permanent disability benefits designed to at least partially replace lost wages
- Vocational rehabilitation
- Death benefits
- Cost of living increases
If you receive workers' compensation following an injury, you cannot sue your employer for additional compensation in connection with your injury. You may, however, be able to file a lawsuit against others involved in your injury. A workers' compensation lawyer or personal injury attorney can advise you of your legal options.
Filing a Workers' Comp Claim
By law, you must file a claim for workers' comp benefits with the Virginia Workers' Compensation Commission within two years of your injury or disease diagnosis.
You should also promptly notify your employer and seek medical treatment.
If your claim is denied, you can request a hearing before the Commission. Your lawyer can guide you through the appeals process.
Workers' Compensation for Federal Employees & Others
Federal government employees working in Virginia, as well as state residents who work in other industries may be covered under one of several federal workers' compensation programs:
- The Federal Employees' Compensation Act covers federal employees and postal workers for job-related injuries and diseases
- The Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act covers U.S. Department of Energy employees, predecessor agencies, contractors, and subcontractors who are ill as a result of working with nuclear weapons
- The Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act and related acts, including the Defense Base Act, cover maritime workers
- The Black Lung Benefits Act provides compensation to miners totally disabled by black lung disease as well as their survivors

text: Here are just a few of the bucks that we were watching for my 2010 Nevada Mule Deer hunt. My goal was to shoot the 5x5, the picture was taken about 2 weeks before the start of the season, He stood about 80 yards away from us for about 5 minutes, we would have had perfect shot on him had it been during the season. During the muzzleloader season we found some guys that were actually in the process of moving in on him but they shot over his back. I later found out that some other guy had shot him during the muzzleloader season. The other bucks were just some bucks that I thought were neat.

|Midwest Paint Group Dsplayed in Gallery G
|Caleb Noffsinger
Staff Writer
Art has an effect on everyone. For some, it can invoke sadness, or happiness. Galleries of art offer much more of that effect. At Manchester University's Gallery G, the show "Realism and its Discontents" by the Midwest Paint Group is no exception to this effect. It captures the beauty of the Midwest and other scenes on the canvas effortlessly.
With the wide variety from landscapes to nudes, at least one painting is bound to catch the viewer's eye and elicit emotion, or a response. All of the pieces are notable and more than very well done. The use of colors in this gallery is breathtaking and inspiring.
The gallery will get a lot of traffic over the next few weeks so be sure to be a part of the experience of these magnificent pieces of art, and do not be afraid; the gallery is not looking for a certain type of audience, but a broad spectrum of people.
The gallery is here to help support the art curriculum at the University and it will be featuring a piece painted by Manchester alumnus Ron Weaver. The show itself will be up till just past Thanksgiving.
There will be a reception Oct. 16 from 1 till 3, with drinks provided and the chance to meet a few of the artists. Megan Williamson, Amy MaClennan, Michael Neary, Timothy King and Philip Hale will all be there. This will be a time to meet a part of the group and ask them questions about their art, or just come on up and hang out surrounded by these beautiful pieces and great company.
The gallery is located on the upper level of the Union across from the Success Center. And do not forget to look at the art in the Link Gallery in Winger and the lower level of the new Academic Center. Gallery G is open for view from 8 a.m. till 5 p.m. on Monday through Friday, closed on Saturday and open 12 till 3 on Sunday.

Ines Papert Sends New M9+ on Gear
Ines Papert recently sent a new mixed line on gear called Finnmannen, a 400-meter M9+ WI 7 route in Norway. Finnmannen was characterized by technical rock climbing on microcrimps, long runouts, and thin, glazed ice.
To do the line, Papert spent February 4-15 on Norway's Senja Island, over 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle. Senja Island is close to Lofoten Island, which is known for its granite climbing.
Papert and her partner, local Bent Vidar Eilertsen, then had to approach the base of the route via kayak. They climbed Finnmannen without the use of any bolts. Their rack consisted of one set of camalots (0.3-3), one set of nuts, five pecs (knifeblades, normal pitons and lost arrows), two peckers, one bulldog, and eight ice screws.
Next up, Ines Papert plans to explore new routes in Morocco. She is also releasing a new book called Vertical – Ines Papert life on the steepest faces.

While D&D and other fantasy RPG's regularly add new monsters to their bestiaries in an attempt to create new and exciting encounters, there are also what are known as "Iconic" monsters and villains which have withstood the test of time, and have become the hallmark of fantasy gaming. Several names come to mind: Colossal Red Dragons, Dread Knights, Beholders, Lich-Lords, Drow High Priestesses of Lolth and so on. These are the encounters which whole campaign story arcs are based around, and make for some of the most memorable events within a game. So with that in mind, here is the idea for a mapping challenge (whether lite or no):
Create either a battle-map, or dungeon lair that:
- Represents the lair of some Iconic Monster or Villain;
- Contains a brief description of, or some prophecy, poem, limerick etc related to the monster/villain and or its location.
- Is suitable for use as the centerpiece of an RPG campaign.
Well that, in a nutshell, is the idea. Let me know what you guys think.

Public Policy Polling has released its latest poll results before North Carolinians go to the polls on Tuesday.
Amendment One is expected to be a big draw for voters this primary. Voters are asked to decide whether to support making marriage between one man and one woman the only legally recognized union in North Carolina. The latest poll numbers from Public Policy Polling show more voters support the amendment than oppose it, 55% for and 39% against.
The Democratic primary for governor shows that race is tightening at the top. Walter Dalton's lead over Bob Etheridge has narrowed from previous polls. Dalton now has 34% support, while Etheridge has 29%, according to Public Policy Polling. The other candidates have less than 5% support.
The latest poll numbers in the Republican primary for lieutenant governor suggest a runoff election could be coming this summer. Dale Folwell has 22%, Tony Gurley has 18% and Dan Forest has 17%. The other candidates have less than 10% in this poll.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - Some Maryland lawmakers want to decriminalize small amounts of marijuana to save the state money, while others want to legalize limited amounts of the drug for private possession.
State Senators are expected to vote Tuesday on a measure that would eliminate jail time for possessing less than 10 grams of marijuana.
If passed, those caught with small amounts of marijuana would face a $100 fine.
Supporters say the measure would save the state money by relieving the strain such crimes put on the criminal justice system.
Opponents worry that decriminalization could increase drug use among youth.
The Maryland House Judiciary Committee is also scheduled to hold a hearing on a measure to legalize limited amounts of marijuana for adults 21 and older.
The hearing is scheduled for Tuesday in Annapolis.
