Average Customer Review: based on 1 reviews.Rating: Wetsuit spot on
The BREAKER is an industrial-strength 3mm suit. Built with all the features of a 7mm suit, the BREAKER is ready to withstand years of tropical travel.
• 1 piece rear-entry jumpsuit design
• A full 3mm neoprene throughout the entire suit – not a reduced 3/2 like
some suits
• Roll neck collar with Velcro™ closure is soft and comfortable,
yet forms a superior water seal
• Molded rubber shoulder pads protect the diver and the suit while helping
stabilize the BC
• Honeycomb o-ring wrist and ankle seals
• 10mm spine pad includes smoothskin sealing surfaces to retard water
entry through the zipper
• Each seam intersection is equipped with stress disks to reinforce stitch
strength and improve comfort
• Contoured body panels create a better fit, adding comfort and reducing
water entry
• Free wetsuit hanger
The key step to making any wetsuit perform to its ultimate potential is reducing water transfer. This process, whereby water from the diving environment enters and exits the wetsuit, allows cold water to enter the suit and lets bodywarmed water exit; thus chilling the diver, even in tropical waters. PINNACLE nearly eliminates water transfer by creating better barriers to keep cold water out, making more form-fitting products that prevent internal water movement, employing the renowned Merino™ lining system to enable body heat to warm internal water, and then making it extremely difficult for that warm water to escape.
In order to prevent water entry and egress, PINNACLE employs the latest technology in sealing systems. Features like honeycomb o-ring wrist seals, Orcaskin™ forearm gussets, smoothskin chimney seals in the ankles, roll-neck collars with smoothskin sealing surfaces, smoothskin-to-smoothskin sealing surfaces on 10mm spine pads, and the innovative Pinnacle Defense System (P.D.S.) combine in PINNACLE suits to create a significantly better water barrier than in other brands. These sealing systems work as checkpoints, neither allowing water in the suit nor out.
The second step, having a more form-fitting suit, is achieved by offering divers more choices in sizes. PINNACLE offers as many as 17 male, 12 female and 4 children's sizes in wetsuits, as well as more sizes of boots, gloves, and hoods than most other manufacturers.
PINNACLE has the ability to customize suits to some extent to fit people with more challenging shapes, but with up to 33 stock sizes, one is sure to fit almost any diver perfectly; and a tighter, better-fitting suit leaves less room for water to move, which keeps the diver warmer.

One man is missing after the boat he was in overturned near Stuckey's Bridge on the Chunky River on Saturday night.
Investigators say it is possible that the boat struck hidden debris, causing it to flip. Two other people were in the boat at the time of the incident, but they are said to be safe.
Officials from Lauderdale, Newton, and Clarke counties have been involved in search efforts. The American Red Cross and the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries are also assisting.
High river levels are making the search difficult.

I have been working on an Alfresco browsing Zimlet and I wanted to programmatically open a new message dialog from a Zimlet. So I do not want to send an email via SOAP, just to open the new message dialog programmatically. Does anyone know, if this is possible, and if yes, how can you do it?
The other thing, I wanted to ask is: is it possible to detect that the new message dialog is already open from a Zimlet dialog? Any hints on how to do are really most welcome.
Best regards,

Southpaw Success
The Royals last eight wins have come when a lefty starts for the opposition. Even though Francisco Liriano didn't factor into the decision, the Royals secured the win.
And tonight they see another southpaw, though Cliff Lee has been Cy Young-caliber all season. Without further ado, let's get into it and go Around the Horn…
With a 30-21 record, the Royals have the best record in the Bigs versus lefties. Going back over the last eight wins, Francisco Liriano started yesterday, before him was Cleveland's Zach Jackson, all three game versus the A's (Dan Meyer, Joey Devine and Gio Gonzalez), Detroit's Kenny Rogers (two times in a row) and New York's Andy Pettitte (though he wasn't charged with a loss).
The Royals, despite at times being left-handed hitter heavy, have racked up some nice numbers versus southpaws. They lead the Majors in hits and doubles (the only team over 100 two-baggers) versus lefties. They're also third in the American League RBI and batting average (fourth in the Majors in both categories).
As individuals go, Mike Aviles and Billy Butler are both in the top ten in the AL for batting average versus lefties, with Aviles leading all qualifying batters and Butler coming in at sixth. Aviles is also third in slugging and fourth in on-base percentage. Butler and Jose Guillen are hitting for power off lefties as well, ranked fifth and sixth respectively for slugging percentage versus southpaws. Guillen is tied for second in the AL with 37 RBI, tied for fifth with nine homers, tied for sixth with 13 doubles off lefties and tied for second with 22 extra base hits. Butler is tied for eighth with 12 doubles and 10th with 19 extra base hits. Finally, David DeJesus has connected 52 times which is tied for seventh in the AL for hits against left-handed pitchers.
The bullpen stood strong again yesterday. As of late the Royals' relief hurlers are tossing some solid innings. As a unit, they've only allowed three runs in their last 16.2 innings for a 1.62 ERA with just three walks, and 14 strikeouts, which equals 7.6 K's per nine innings. Opponents are hitting just .175 against them, with only 10 hits in 57 at-bats (only one of which was extra bases.
Over the five games, they have a 1-0 record with two saves and allowed all three runs on Wednesday. Ramon Ramirez has not allowed a run in his last nine appearances and struck out two of the three batters he faced yesterday. John Bale entered yesterday with two on and two out to get a pop-up during the tied game. Ron Mahay shut the door on a Twins' chance in the sixth with after the Royals starter had given up two straight singles. Mahay struck out his first batter and then induced the rally-killing double-play.
With that said, Robinson Tejeda has been announced as the starter for tomorrow's second game in Cleveland. Zack Greinke will start Game 1 and Tejeda, who started some for the Rangers earlier this season, will start the game in what most likely will be a "go as long as you can" scenario. The Royals were forced to put Tejeda into action because of a lack of off-days. Monday was a travel day for the team and their next break will be the 25th (13 days and 14 games from now).
Four of their last five extra inning games have been wins for Kansas City and they are 7-6 when playing past nine…Joakim Soria made history two more times yesterday with his 36th save. He's tied with Jeff Montgomery's 1998 save total for sixth best in franchise history and sits all by himself with 53 during his career, which is one shy of Roberto Hernandez for fourth place on the team's all-time saves list. His 36 saves and 92.3 conversion rate are both second in the American League…Don't forget about the FSN-KC make-up broadcast on Thursday at 1:10 versus Seattle…Or "Shirt Off Their Backs" night on September 20, when you could win a game-worn jersey for just a dollar raffle ticket…Also, next Wednesday at 11:30 at is the next Legends Luncheon. Manager Trey Hillman and General Manager Dayton Moore will be speaking.
Now at 6-0 in the playoffs, the Burlington Bees need just one win to secure the Midwest League crown. Johnny Giavotella homered for the second straight day and led a 16-hit Bees' barrage with three hits and three RBI.
Alex Caldera combined for a four-hit shutout as the Bees' cruised to a 12-0 win in their final game at Burlington's Community Field this season. The series moves to South Bend tonight and will play on Saturday and Sunday if necessary in Indiana. (Bee's broadcast available here).

ST. LOUIS (KSDK) - A news conference was held Wednesday detailing a sexual abuse lawsuit filed against the YMCA at 1528 Locust Street in downtown St. Louis.
SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, hosted the press conference, which detailed alleged sex crimes against two victims that occurred in the 1980s by a swimming instructor/coach at the facility.
The victims were 11 and 12-years-old at the time.
The alleged abuse occurred weekly and lasted for over one year. The victims say the inappropriate activity included graphic sexual conversations, pornography, and more.
NewsChannel 5 received the following statement from the YMCA Wednesday.
"Statement Attributable to: YMCA of Greater St. Louis
February 6, 2013
The YMCA of Greater St. Louis had no previous knowledge of these claims before today's public announcement. We have not been served with a copy of the lawsuit. While we will not comment on pending litigation, our top priority is the safety and security of our members and program participants."

Item # FRS0167
Don't worry though, we have a lot more 26-inch Suspension Forks in stock than that.View Similar Products
FOX Racing Shox 32 Float 26 140 FIT CTD - 2013 $0.00
The long-travel 140mm Float 32 CTD FIT Fork ushers in a new era for damping technology at Fox. Climb, trail, and descend settings can be quickly and easily switched using the three-position lever located above the right crown. This allows you to intuitively make significant changes to your bikes handling characteristics for the conditions at hand.
Fox forks have traditionally been featured packed, offering the ability to make any adjustments needed to tune the fork for any trail conditions. The only problem was the difficulty for the average rider to make knowledgeable tweaks to the forks. High- and low-speed compression, lockout threshold, preload, and rebound are all common adjustments, but, for the guy who wants to ride, and not relentlessly and aimlessly tune a fork, this can have a negative effect on performance and user experience.
With CTD, one lever quickly and easily switches the fork's compression to ideal settings for the task at hand. The Climb setting adds plenty of low-speed compression to mitigate bobbing when standing on the pedals. Trail mode offers moderate low-speed compression to balance efficiency with optimal trail manners. It's also independently adjustable with three settings; soft, medium, and firm. Finally, the Descend setting features the perfect blend of high- and low-speed compression for plush action on steep and aggressive sections of trail.
Another key feature to this new Fox fork is a redesigned spring curve for forks 130mm and above. There's now a more linear spring rate. This is achieved by using a longer negative spring and by reducing the air spring's compression ratio. The resulting curve gives the air fork a more coil-like feel, and it also will use more of its travel because the preload won't ramp up.
The 2013 lowers are now 50 grams lighter than last year's comparable model. While that may not seem significant, keep in mind dropping mass from the lowers effectively reduces un-sprung weight — which affects the amount of inertia the damper needs to control, resulting in enhanced suspension action. To drop the weight, Fox's engineers retained the Float's respected torsional stiffness by redesigning the brace, dropouts, and wall thickness.
The 2013 Fox Float 32 140 Fork comes in Black with the smooth and durable Kashima coating on the stanchion tubes. The fork comes equipped with a tapered 1.5 to 1-1/8in steerer and 15QR thru-axle..

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) -- The white supremacist group Aryan Nations is planning to march on Saturday from Lincoln Park to the west lawn of the U.S. Capitol.
Residents in the Capitol Hill neighborhood are upset about it.
Aryan Nations says it's trying to shed light on the atrocities of white farmers in South Africa.
The group plans on having 20-25 people participate, and expects the protest to be peaceful.
Morris Gulett, an ordained minister, calls himself the world leader of the hate group Aryan Nations.
Despite some of the online sermons titled 'the righteousness of hate' and 'teach them war, ' he expects a peaceful march in the District.
"What we are coming to Washington, D.C. for is a righteous cause. We are coming to shine a light on a dark situation in South Africa."
Rhonda Fleming is a Capitol Hill resident who plans on participating in a counter demonstration. "We are living in 2012. We are still having white supremacy groups march, it's not cool. I plan to show up and let my voice and presence be known."
The counter protest invites all colors and creeds to meet at Lincoln Park on Saturday afternoon.
Gulett says, "if there are counter protest these people are launching a protest in favor of murder and genocide."
But residents say it's not the topic but what the group stands for.
Suzanne Adair says, "Legally they have a right but it's unfortunate they'll be here."The group is headquartered in Louisiana. Pastor Gulett doesn't plan on being at the rally but has directed nearly two dozen of his people to participate.

After holding securely to the number one position in the Big Sky Conference early in the season, the Montana State Women's Basketball team came crashing back to earth in the form of a six game losing streak in late January and early February. Instead of winning the regular season title, hosting the Big Sky Conference Tournament and having a bye in the first round of games, they had to fight and claw to snag the number six seed.
And on Wednesday night, in their opening round matchup against three seed Eastern Washington, their season came to a close.
"It's been the time of my life," senior leader Rachel Semansky said in a media release by MSU. "Playing basketball at MSU has been a huge blessing."
The Lady Eagles downed the Cats 68-53, after MSU trailed by just a single point heading into halftime.
"We were undisciplined," Head Coach Tricia Binford said in the MSU media release. "We had turnovers on our end and Eastern Washington was a half-step ahead of us on the other."
Montana State coughed up the ball 19 times, and Eastern took advantage by scoring 22 points off those turnovers.
The Cats' shooting woes continued as well, as they sunk just 36.7% of their shots, opposed to the Eagles scoring on nearly 50% of their attempts. The three point shooting slump that MSU has experienced much of the season was in full effect as the Cats made just two of their fourteen shots from three.
Semansky, a 2nd team All-Big Sky honoree, only shot the ball six times, converting on three of those attempts. No Bobcat scored in double figures for the game.
Butte native Lexie Nelson played all 40 minutes for the Eagles and scored 18 points while pulling down four rebounds.
Eastern Washington will face Northern Colorado Friday at 11 a.m.

Goodguys Fort Worth PHR Street Machine Autocross - Game On!Written by Johnny Hunkins on July 1, 2012 Contributors: Stephen Kim We hit the road to Fort Worth for the first PHR Goodguys Street Machine Autocross of the year
We stepped up last year to sponsor five select Goodguys Street Machine Autocross events, and we had a great time. The readers did too, so for 2012 we hooked back up with the Goodguys Rod & Custom Association to ink the deal for five more action-packed tarmac scorchers. In 2011, we gave out five custom-embroidered Street Machine Autocross jackets to our five winners, and we're going to do it again this year, starting with the Fort Worth, Texas, event, which went down this past March 16-17 at the Texas Motor Speedway.
From a driver's perspective, the Texas Motor Speedway infield was the perfect venue for carving cones; the large level paved surface near turn four of the 1.5-mile tri-oval made an outstanding autocross circuit, with a good driver turning in just over a minute-long lap time. As laid out by the Goodguy's staff, the course had a great combination of long sweeping turns, a tight chicane, two long straights, and a hairpin turn. It was a great test of man and machine that rewarded patience and moderation as much as raw grip and brute force. The Goodguys staff are now seasoned pros at running the autocross, and each year more cars and more spectators make their way out to experience it.
We had virtually the entire Goodguys schedule to pick from in selecting the PHR Street Machine autocross events, and we like Texas because there's a huge contingent of bitchin cars there that don't mind getting a little dirty to have some fun. We chose the spring event because the cool March weather is ideal for excellent lap times, and with temps in the low 70s and overcast skies, it was a racer's dream. Kevin Miller must have been thinking the same thing, because he made the trek down from Baldwin City, Kansas, with his homebuilt '69 Camaro. Kevin swept a Camaro-dominated field for the win, running a fast lap of 60.794 seconds.
In the Pro field, we got to take rides in both Bret Volkel's Air-Ride–equipped '69 Mustang and Phil Gerber's '70 Chevy truck (replete with Roadster Shop Fast Track chassis). Let me pause for a second and say this: If you find yourself at a Goodguys Street Machine Autocross, please ask for a ride with one of these cats! Anybody can ride along, all you gotta do is ask (and sign the Goodguys waiver). You will be truly impressed with both the level of engineering in these vendor-created cars, and the driver acumen. We posted in-car video from both vehicles on the Popular Hot Rodding YouTube channel, so please take a look.
Very shortly, we'll be heading out to Del Mar, California (March 30 to April 1), then on to Nashville (May 18-20). The biggie is in Columbus, Ohio (July 6-8), and we finish out our year in Scottsdale, Arizona (November 16-18). As in Fort Worth, we'll be awarding the Street Machine competitor with the fastest lap at each event one of the coveted PHR Winner jackets, so make sure to mark one of these on your hot rodding calendar!
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
Don't let the truck looks fool you: this '70 Chevy C10 is a heavy hitter! The Roadster Shop built this track truck with a Fast Track chassis and all the right goodies to make it stick like glue. Check out PHR's video channel (www.YouTube.com/PopularHotRodding) for a quick lap inside this bad boy!This '67 RS/SS Camaro has been in Kenneth Jones' family (Canyon, Texas) since day one and has a total of absolutely zero aftermarket parts. Holding off the hot rodding instinct for 45 years must require an incredible amount of willpower. Big kudos goes to Kenneth for driving it hard on the autocross!Mavericks aren't synonymous with performance, but this '72 owned by Chris Moore (Roanoke, Texas) sure changed our mind. The lightweight stormer packs a 347ci Ford small-block, a G-Force—built T5 trans, a Total Control front suspension, and a TCI torque arm kit for a Mustang. This thing hauls, and we are chasing it for a feature.Rodney Moore of Wylie, Texas, was our lone Mopar in the Street Machine class, laying down a best lap of 74.265 with a stock suspension. The 440-powered E-Body has received a 4L60E overdrive conversion from Keisler, making those long road trips a whole lot easier.Bobby Hampton (Hot Springs, Arkansas) wasn't kidding when he said he has an aversion to chrome! The '55 Chevy 150 two-door sedan has too cool radiused rear wheelwells, just like the '55 in Two-Lane Blacktop. The restomod has a warmed-over 355ci small-block Chevy, five-speed Tremec, tubular A-arms, and 295/50R15 tires in the rear.Just as Randy Robison (Nacogdoches, Texas) got settled in to run the course, he discovered a badly leaking radiator, which kept him off the track. Nevertheless, we love his homebuilt '70 Mustang, which has a 392ci Windsor, Tremec five-speed, Global West suspension, and Baer brakes. We'll be featuring it later this year.We've seen Kevin Miller of Baldwin City, Kansas, at the Goodguys autocross before, but the best he's ever managed to do with his garage-built '69 Camaro is runner-up. In Fort Worth, Kevin was able to hold off all comers for the win.We first met Rocky Stephens (Covington, Texas) last year when Goodguys came to the Texas Motor Speedway. We liked his LS1-powered '65 Olds Cutlass so much, we featured it in our Nov. '11 issue. Goodies include brakes and steering from CPP and a 4L60E automatic overdrive.Nobody has more fun with a stock-suspension '69 Camaro than Jim Dewberry of League City, Texas. With more iron ore than an epoch-ending meteorite, Dewberry's iron-headed big-block had the lightweight rear burning the tires and sliding sideways. Sideways is a state of mind Dewberry clearly has no problem with! This car also won PHR's informal "most bitchin rake" award.
We were gobsmacked by how drop-dead gorgeous Gary Lackore's '71 Corvette is. These things are still way inexpensive and they handle amazing in stock form. Add some sticky Nitto tires, some Vintage Wheel Works V40 rims, Koni shocks, and a quick-ratio Borgeson steering box, and you've got a rock star. Running gear is a breathed on 355ci small-block and an M22 "rock crusher" four-speed.Keith Brogdon of Watauga, Texas, sits at the starter's booth before making a run. His wicked little '55 Chevy Bel Air has a stout 355ci small-block feeding a 700-R4 trans and Nitto 555s on Boyd Magneto 18s. Keith built it mostly himself, and there's a tremendous amount of craftsmanship throughout.Autocross announcer Chad Reynolds is easily excited, but he really goes into overdrive when getting a ride-along with RideTech's Bret Voelkel in his Air-Ride–equipped '69 Mustang. We got the same ride from Voelkel, and you can find the pulse-pounding footage on the PHR YouTube channel.The author presents the Popular Hot Rodding Street Machine Winner jacket to Kevin Miller in the winner's circle. Miller's best lap of 60.794 had the rest of the field covered by over a half a second. Miller says he's bringing the Camaro to Nashville to try it again, but as we all know, that's Brian Finch's territory. Should be very interesting!

JOHN O'CONNOR, The Associated Press
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) - Supporters of gay marriage are expected to try again today to move landmark same-sex marriage legislation through the Senate.
The proposal would remove from state law a prohibition on marriage between two people of the same sex. It was expected to be debated on the first day of the Legislature's lame duck session Wednesday. But it hit a procedural snag and didn't get a hearing.
Sen. Heather Steans, the Chicago Democrat who is sponsoring the bill, says she has enough Senate votes for approval.
Cardinal Francis George of Chicago denounced the idea as going against the "natural order" of traditional marriage.
Other measures that might be considered Thursday are bans on semiautomatic weapons and a bill to fix Illinois' $96 billion pension crisis.

DIY Texture Rubbing Plates With Elmer's Glue

You know, I tried this ages and ages ago, but I think I didn't make the shapes big enough, because it just didn't really show up. That combined with my kids then relative lack of fine motor skills.

It's not so easy for the little ones to control the glue. I find that it often comes out too much or too little
- August 11, 2013 at 6:45 PM
- pink and green mama MaryLea said...
That is why it is important for children to develop their fine motor skills and muscle control by using glue bottles. Practice and trial and error is how they learn any skill. They can always add more glue if they use too little and if they tend to use too much, I always say, "dot dot not a lot".

Store History
"Shops are not just places to go and buy stuff. Ours isn't, anyway it's a place to mooch and browse and peruse and ponder. Located at the leafy Cleveland Sq – a stone's throw from the historic Albert Dock and Tate Gallery, our tiny shop is on the edge of the bustling Liverpool ONE shopping quarter. Stocked to the hilt with the most unique products from around the world, from limited edition prints to knitted jewellery, lighting and stationery to magazines and books, gifts and vintage, garden and kitchenware – if you can't name it, we've probably got it."
I love discovering new sources for unique gifts and Cow & Co. comes to my attention just in time for the upcoming gift giving season. This little Liverpool shop (don't worry, they're online too) stocks a wide array of gifts from independent artists around the world. From desktop, tabletop and kitchen to bicycles, toys and magazines, chances are you'll find a gift for one or more folks on your list.
Shown above:

• A Range Stool Just about everyone needs a little extra seating and this little stool, formed from two interlocking 'A' shapes, will definitely be appreciated. £75
I'd love to have the opportunity to visit Cow & Co.'s Liverpool store some time. From what I've read around the internet, the clean space is a gorgeous showcase for the store's inventory. Until I make it across the Atlantic, I'm content to shop from the store's extensive online inventory. Their web shop is broken down for easy gift shopping, with categories that span accessories, lighting, magazines and outdoor. There's even a £10 and under section. And shopping from afar is actually pretty reasonable. Cow & Co. offers affordable around the world shipping — £9.95 to Europe and £19.95 to the rest of the world.

She agreed to take lunch early with us, but we had other plans. She agreed to more then just lunch because this hottie was hornier then ever. She told us a few spanish words while showing us what they ment. From that point on, the action was wild as can be. Her tight body fit so perfect no matter what position I put her in, and I put her in alot.

I've been 4 or 5 times. I thought at first, that since I'm focused on still life I didn't need to look or think about landscapes again.
Too late I woke up and realized of course, a still life IS a landscape! A bunch of shapes sitting on a flatish surface = a landscape.Most workshop mornings begin with THE DEMO by the instructor.
You crowd round to see the magic performed in the relentlessly hot sun.Then you go off for the day and try to perform a little magic yourself... The bay out my motel window in '01... Thomaston's boat yard in '05At the end of each workshop day comes the group crit.
You learn heaps here.
I could use an end o' day group crit in my New York studio...
The real end of a Maine day ends with a Lobster.
If you haven't had a lobster roll for lunch that is...

Upon completion of 1L Academy in late October, Jump Start Week, which offers 1Ls more ways to "jump start" their legal careers, begins. On November 1, per NALP rules, 1L students can begin receiving individual career counseling from the Career Services Office. All 1Ls are encouraged to work on their resumes with career advisors during November and to use the winter break to conduct informational interviews, research employers, and apply for summer jobs.

Demonstration Interview- A hiring partner from a local law firm will conduct a mock interview with a current Moritz student. Both interviewer and interviewee will discuss their strategies prior to the interview, as well as provide a post-interview analysis.
All admitted students receive a copy of The Official Guide to Legal Specialties. This resource provides an overview of 30 legal specialties and gives incoming 1Ls a glimpse of of legal practice. Incoming students also are given the opportunity to complete a personality profile known as StrengthsQuest to identify their top five individual strengths. The combination of self-assessment and practice overview helps students begin to focus their career search.
During 1L orientation, each incoming student receives a binder outlining the career services syllabus. National Association for Law Placement (NALP) guidelines prevent students from having contact with legal employers prior to November 1 of their 1L year and from applying for jobs prior to December 1. For this reason, career services offices throughout the country schedule a detailed 1L orientation on or about November 1.
Rising 2L and 3L OCI Orientation
During Spring Semester, Career Services meets with rising 2Ls and 3Ls to prepare them for Fall OCI and summer job fairs. Information about how to use the summer to maximize employment options gives Moritz students an important "head start."
Practice Interview Program
1Ls are offered the opportunity to be matched with a local practicing attorney for a 30-minute mock interview followed by constructive feedback and coaching. Every effort is made to match students to attorneys who work in the practice area or work environment the students wishes to ultimately join.
By preparing a cover letter and resume, researching the employer, dressing in professional attire, traveling to the attorney's office, and undergoing a mock job interview, the students receive invaluable experience and are better prepared for the spring recruiting season.

I would put in for area 58 first choice if you don't want to draw first choice and you will keep your 1 point. If you buy another point when you apply or in july/sept when they let you buy a point only then next year you will enter the draw with 2 points. If you really don't want to draw first choice and loose your point be careful of the special price draw because your odds go way up in alot of areas thats why I would put in for 58 it is very hard to draw that area.
One point and special will get you into alot of areas.

Rather than become just another construction worker like his father, George moves to California where he discovers the profitable pleasures of selling marijuana. A spell in prison introduces him to big-time Colombian dealers, and soon George is involved with their plan to export tons of cocaine to American shores. He becomes fabulously wealthy, but takes a dizzying fall that knocks him out of the underworld.

Man Guiltyof Burying Teen Mom Alive is Sentenced to 30 Years
Valdosta, GA -- October 18, 2011 --
The family of Brittany Wade, a teen murder victim who was found buried in a shallow grave in late July of 2009, finally feel they have closure.
Jonathan Barrett, 21, was sentenced to 30 years for murder, 10 of which will be on probation.
He's convicted of killing 17-year-old Brittany Wade in July 2009.
She was his ex-girlfriend at the time.
She was found buried in a shallow grave behind Barrett's Aunt's home on Bunche Drive in Valdosta.
Cynthia Woodard, victim's aunt, says, "I feel like justice has been served and I am happy. Thank you Jesus. He deserved more than that but what he got I'm satisfied with. Thank you Lord."
Wade and Barrett had two children together.
Wade's family continues fighting for custody but the children have been taken by the state to Savannah where they have been adopted by another family.
Man Suspected of Burying Teen Mom Alive Pleads Insanity, Victim's Family 'Outraged'
Valdosta, GA -- August 22, 2009 --
The Valdosta man charged with burying a teen mother alive is pleading insanity.
The victims family tells Eyewitness News they are outraged.
"He's the demon himself," said Cynthia Woodard, the victim's Aunt. "If he killed her like that, if he got out in the streets, he's liable to kill somebody else's' child."
Those are the harsh words Woodard has for Jonathan Barrett, 21, who is charged with burying her niece, Brittany Wade, 17, alive in the backyard of a Valdosta home.
Barrett and Wade were a couple and have two children together.
Barrett was set to have a bond hearing Friday morning but the judge removed Barrett's case from the court call.
Since Barrett is pleading insanity the judge says he must undergo psychological evaluation.
Following the ruling, Wade's family fled the courtroom.
"This is not just an ordinary battle this is a war," said Willie Wade, the victim's father. "So, all kinds of tactics are going to be played."
"He's not crazy. He's a long way from being crazy," Woodard added.
Wade was found buried in this shallow grave behind her boyfriend's aunt's home in the 1100 block of Bunche Drive in late July.
Brittany was there visiting her two sons.
Police say the couple had been fighting that evening.
Brittany's autopsy says her death was caused by asphyxiation. She had dirt in her lungs.
Her family believes Barrett deserves to die.
"He needs to stand up and man up on this situation and accept whatever it is they give him, the gas chamber, death penalty, lethal injection," said LaSonya Wade, Brittany's cousin.
Wade's family is wearing t-shirts made in Brittany's memory.
Her photo is on the front and a poem she wrote is on the back.
But unlike the poem, this family is not ready to forgive and forget whoever is found guilty of Brittany's murder.
Barrett's family was also in court this morning but declined to speak on camera
