ATLANTA (AP) -- December 10, 2011
A state report says Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal played no role in the departure of two top officials at the state ethics commission. But in an interview in the report, one of the ethics officials said federal prosecutors were investigating Deal's tax records and loans.
The U.S. Attorney's Office declined comment, and no investigation has been confirmed by prosecutors.
Deal attorney Randy Evans says federal prosecutors haven't contacted him or the governor and he doesn't believe the governor is being investigated.
The report was prepared by the Office of the State Inspector General. The office was investigating a claim that Deal used his influence to remove a member of the ethics commission staff investigating his campaign expenditures.
The report concludes there was no evidence to substantiate that claim.

I can use first and second, but when I go back up to neutral to slide over to go into 3rd, the shifter will not move. I tried turning the truck and seeing if I could get it to slide back and forth in neutral, but it wont budge. I was told to take the boot off and look for a pin to push back down, but there is no pin anywhere that I can find. I had a trans dropped into it about 3 months ago, and the clutch is new withing the last 6 months.

Little girls are vanishing from Deadwood, South Dakota. Fearing her daughter might be next, single mom Violet Parker is desperate to find the monster behind the abductions.
With her savings dwindling and just three weeks left to sell her first house or lose her realtor job, Violet is ecstatic when a handsome jeweler hires her to sell his century-old Victorian masterpiece - until she sees the dilapidated dwelling. Now if she could just convince her only buyer to stop rejecting vintage homes as if they're haunted.
Short on time and long on worry, Violet refuses to give up her dream of a fresh start in Deadwood. But with a malicious coworker trying to get her fired, a secret admirer sending her creepy messages, and a sexy stranger hiding skeletons in his closet, will Violet end up as one of Deadwood's dearly departed?

I am open to reviewing quality products.
"Steamy Cozy Mystery"
This is a really interesting book that caught my attention in the beginning and held me until the very end. It wasn't perfect but the flaws were not enough to make me stop reading. I will say upfront this is a touch racier than your typical cozy mystery, more on that later.
I generally liked Violet, she had a snarky wit and can do attitude. She was a bit over run by her kids, they totally ran her life. Her job struggles were relateable and you really felt her frustration. She seemed to be doused in some kind of love potion, for real how many fellas does a gal need? At one point she had no less than 4 men wanting to get with her. I know that was meant to be funny but in my opinion it missed the mark.
There were some really funny moments in the story. Her kids are a hoot, even if you want to shake them at times! Her slightly slutty best friend adds a touch of drama. I would have loved to see more of her hippy Aunt Zoey. Her first client Harvey is a laugh riot!! I hope we see much more of him in future books!
This is a single POV, only getting Violet's side of things. She is very helpful in sharing her insights as they happen. It might be nice to get some of the other character's thoughts. But then some off the twists wold have been revealed too early.
There are a couple romantic prospects and things eventually get steamy. Kind of a surprise for the type of book. While not as detailed as an erotic read, the bedroom door is wide open and things get hot! I am still deciding how I feel about that story wise. It was very abrupt and while the characters were lusting after each other, it felt off.
The mystery is detailed and well developed. I would have liked more of the ghost angle throughout. That seemed like a missed opportunity. While I quickly caught on to the bad guy, I did not see that motive. Almost made me feel bad for the guy, until you recall he was killing little girls.
I listened to the audiobook narrated by Caroline Shaffer. She does an excellent job. She had a real feel for the characters and helped the story flow. She has a brisk read, which I enjoy. She had great voices, distinct and consistent. Great comedic timing, especially with old man Harvey. She could have used a touch more energy during the action and smexy scenes. I never felt urgency in her voice. I will definitely boo looking to check out more of her reads.
Ended on a cliffhanger, more like a teaser for the next book. Most of the major plot points of this mystery were wrapped up. But you can see some loose ends, I think I may already know what is going to happen in the next book, but I am still curious.
Overall it is a good read that lacked a wow factor. It was pleasant and entertaining. I would recommend it but I am not screaming it to the rooftops. Grab it on Amazon when it is a freebie, cause then you can get the Audible for 2.99!
"Too irritating"
I have the next one in this series so I'm just hoping Violet doesn't act so high school-ish in that one and a little less drama.I think the narrator did a great job so I wouldn't mind listening to her again.
Violet is supposed to be a single mother of twins, but yet she acts and thinks like she's still in high school. She lets her co-worker constantly harass her without complaining to the boss. She lets her kids walk all over her. As the book went on her thoughts just became more irritating than funny as they were, I'm sure, meant to be.I did like Doc though and just wish he would have had a better leading lady. Harvey was also a favorite character.
"A Mixed Bag"
I have such mixed feelings about this book. There were parts I loved and parts that drove me nuts or grated on me. On the one hand, it was well-written and well-narrated. Some parts were hilarious and had me laughing out loud. Other parts made me so frustrated with the main character that I just wanted to strangle her. For example, the fact that she puts up with the blatant, extreme sexual harassment from her co-worker without ever complaining to her employer really frustrated me. It was funny at first but then it just became annoying. Also, I felt like she let her kids walk all over her. Do the good parts outshine the not-so-good parts? I'm not sure. Am I sorry I read/listened to it? No. Would I recommend it? Only with reservations.
Say something about yourself!
"Totally liked Nearly Departed in Deadwood"
Read/Listened for Fun (Kindle/Audible)
Overall Rating: 4.50
Story Rating: 4.75
Character Rating: 4.25
Audio Rating: 4.50 (not part of the overall rating)
First Thought when Finished: Nearly Departed in Deadwood is a seriously fun cozy mystery that had me giggling, gasping, and growling (in a good way)!
Story Thoughts: They mystery is strong in Nearly Departed in Deadwood, grasshoppers! Ann Charles knows how to write a twisty mystery that will keep you guessing. In true Jessica Fletcher style (which is the bar I hold all cozy mysteries too) knocks out suspects as she goes. I love when an author lines up your suspects and then slowly knocks them down! I laughed at poor Violet as she juggled her job, trying to protect her daughter, the crazies she met (even the adorable fun ones --->Sylvester Schwarzenegger), and dating. I could buy her getting involved in the case because like any mom, the desire to protect the offspring (no matter how annoying they get) is strong. Overall the story was very strong and had some great moments!
Character Thoughts: I really liked Violet till the end of Nearly Departed in Deadwood and she broke the code. I truly thought that could have been handled better but other than that, Violet was a delightful leading lady. Depending on how the situation is handled in the next book, I might even forgive her breaking the code(her friend is a tad bit of a "I claim every guy" kind of gal). Violet's kids though were awesome. I love how Ann Charles didn't push them to the background. It made Violet more real and easier to relate too. I know lots of single moms who get those "emergency" calls at work, have a hard time dating, and seem to always be frazzled/rushed. The fact that it was all part of Violet's personality too just made her more likable. All the rest of the characters are great (even the sleazy annoying ones) and I can't wait to get back to Deadwood.
Audio Thoughts:
Narrated By Caroline Shaffer / Length: 12 hrs and 3 mins
I don't think I have listened to a book narrated by Caroline Shaffer before but I certainly will in the future. She was fantastic and well suited to a cozy mystery. She had great comedic timing, good voices, and just enough "lightness" to make it fun.
Final Thoughts: Totally loved Nearly Departed in Deadwood! Can't wait to continue the series!
"Great narrator and story!"
I had read some of this series and knew I liked the stories so I decided to give the audio book a try!! It is excellent! A great cozy mystery and the narrator is one of the best I've heard!
Susie Bell
"straightforward cozy"
quick fun read. I listened to it as an audible so of course I was interrupted but had no trouble picking back up where I left off
"Extremely funny"
Violet is a real estate agent needing to sell a house in one month or be fired. Violet attracts men and kooks and one lunatic. Lots of fun, sexual tension and near fatal drama.
"A dumb blonde story"
Please don't take any offense my Blonde friends. But, Violet has to be the best dumb blonde joke ever made into a book.
With more than 1600 audio books to hitchhike along with, I've realized only now that I started "reviewing"...boy I need to catch up!
"Really fun mystery romance!"
With a single mom trying to make a good life for her and her family, trying to be a good realtor can be considered a precarious move between stability and financial ruin...but hey, who wouldn't wNt to buy a run down haunted house from her?! Maybe even the hot neighbor Doc that she ran into? Hmmm. This was a fun one. Two very curious kids, a sneaky realtor ready to get her out so his nephew can come in, a boss who says your time is limited if you don't sell, a hot secret rich guy who seems to have you in his sights, a crotchety old man who wrote it in his contract that you have to eat dinner with him to sell his house-what else could drop in her lap....oh yeah, missing kids and a ghost
"whole story could have been told in 2 hours"
This is a very long long book that could have the same story with a quarter of the time.
The main character is so hard to like. Her daughter goes missing and she's flirting??? Not wanting help to look? really? She is spineless. Only book where I wished the main character was killed off.

Features & Opinion
Urban areas have all kinds of assets that are easy to spot. They have the population, so the labor shed is not usually an issue. Urban areas are also connected by better roads, rail and air service and many have river and deep water ports. Usually Internet access and other forms of communication are more efficient in urban areas. And you have a larger array of quality of life options to choose from, such as the cultural assets found in metropolitan areas.

Banco Mujer Unidas Hacia El Progreso Group
She found out about the services of Fundación Mujer from a member of another bank. This is her first loan. Her productive activity is a recycling center where they receive all the waste material of the whole community, which they process and sell to big industry. She has had her business for over 5 years, and the principal obstacle that she faces is the lack of money to invest in her business. The loan will be used to purchase recyclable material to make her business grow, generate employment for her community and improve her quality of life and that of her family. For this she has her goals and objectives well-defined. Among them are: to have her own land for her business, because up until now she has to rent facilities, and to be able to pay for her children's university studies. These are some of her dreams that she aims to achieve with hard work and determination.
The loan will be a big help to Elizabeth and the 9 members of the bank that work in commerce and poultry farming.
Se enteró de los servicios de Fundación Mujer por medio de una integrante de otro banco, este es su primer crédito, y su actividad productiva es un Centro de Reciclaje, donde reciben el material de desecho de toda la comunidad, que procesan y venden a grandes industrias. La clienta tiene su negocio hace más de 5 años, y el principal obstáculo que ha tenido que enfrentar es la falta de dinero para invertir en su actividad, el préstamo se va a utilizar en la compra de material reciclable para hacer crecer su negocio, generar una fuente de empleo para su comunidad y mejorar la calidad de vida de ella y su familia. Por eso tiene sus metas y objetivos bien definidos, entre ellos están, tener un terreno propio para el negocio, porque hasta ahora tiene que alquilar unas instalaciones, además poder pagarle a sus hijos los estudios universitarios. Estos son algunos de los sueños que se ha propuesto lograr con mucho trabajo y dedicación.
El crédito va hacer de gran ayuda para Elizabeth y las 9 integrantes del banco, que se dedican al comercio y avicultura.
Additional Information
More information about this loan
In Costa Rica, funding for microfinance institutions is hard to come by, and many institutions find themselves having difficulty growing and reaching all the demand for loans that exist. Kiva works with Fundacion Mujer because it attends a very marginalized population in Costa Rica, with a specific focus on women. In addition to the loan, Fundacion Mujer provides specialized training programs for their borrowers on everything from computer classes to salon training. Because of the difficulty in obtaining capital in Costa Rica, Fundacion Mujer cannot serve all the women that need loans. Therefore Kiva plays a unique role in helping Fundacion Mujer grow its portfolio and reach borrowers it otherwise would not be able to.
About Fundacion Mujer:Fundación Mujer is an organization specializing in the financial and personal development of female entrepreneurs in Costa Rica. They seek to reach underserved populations that may include indigenous communities, immigrants, refugees, victims of domestic violence or women living with HIV/AIDS. Fundación Mujer offers courses in both business and personal development, as well as training in concrete skills such as sewing and other crafts.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

I made this for an appetizer at a dinner party. I made as directed with sherry. It received mixed reviews. I think I might enjoy it better as a bagel spread for breakfast/brunch. Next time I might try soaking the dried cranberries in the apple juice before combining with the other ingredients. For a breakfast spread I might eliminate/reduce the swiss cheese and add some cinnamon or nutmeg.
This recipe got mixed reviews at my Christmas party. A few people really just didn't like it, I liked it but didn't love it and several people walked away with the recipe raving about it! I think if you love pineapple and like it warm, this recipe will go over well b/c that seemed to be the most prominent flavor. Thank you for sharing this recipe!
This dip was really good and was enjoyed by all. I followed the directions exactly and served this along with bagel chips. Thanks Kathy for posting!
Wow! This is delicious and so easy to make. I followed the recipe exactly except used port instead of sherry because that is what I had on hand. This can be made in minutes with one bowl and a spoon, just opening packages and mixing. I served it last night to friends from England and the 4 of us devoured it. ( I would not say it serves 20, as the recipe states.) I will definitely make this again for the holidays.
Very delicious dip, I made it for our appie for Thanksgiving dinner. Served it first hot right out of the oven with crackers, mmm mmm it was delish! Later in the evening I served the remainder cold in celery sticks, this was heavenly !! loved it both ways but noticed it dissapeared faster when it was cold in the celery. Couldn't find cream cheese with pineapple but I did have a fresh pineapple in, so I took a couple of pieces of that and chopped it finely to add to the cheese, a bit more to cover for the crushed, rather than open a whole can for 1/4 cup. It turned out perfect, loved the combination of Swiss cheese, cream cheese and the pineapple, orange zest and cranberries, the Sherry was a lovely addition to the flavours. I will be making it again probably over the Holidays. Thanks for sharing this delicious recipe, will look forward to serving with with apple slices.
I am very surprised that this recipe has not been reviewed more than twice before, as it is delicious and VERY attractive too. We loved the clever combination of flavours in this spread/dip; I used sherry instead of apple juice, and it gave a "nutty" flavour to the spread. I LOVE anything with orange zest in it, and this was no exception. The overall combination of fruit and cream cheese was delicate and yet the flavours were quite pronounced. I made the full batch, and as there were only 4 of us, I baked half (as is posted in the recipe), and left the other half unbaked and garnished with extra orange zest and cranberries - BOTH ways work very well - although the baked version has a more intense flavour. I served one spread with rice crackers, and the other with apple wedges as suggested. A keeper for me, I plan to use this for my Festive drinks and nibbles menu this year. Merci Kathy - made for the Kathy and Liza Cook-a-Thon in the photos forum, October 2008. FT:-)
This was an interesting little dip! I made it for the Aussie/New Zealand Recipe Swap #14, but would like to try it during the holidays..the cranberries would be so festive. The pineapple gives it a nice tang and the baked cheeses are bubbling hot and creamy. Served with wheat thins and cocktails for a girls night and all loved it!
How much better can you get than this for a spread! I used the apple juice, followed the recipe, then topped the baked spread with some small, finely curled slivers of orange zest! A BIG HIT, & thanks much for it! [Made & reviewed as a tagged bonus recips in the Aus/NZ Recipe Swap #14, Mar 08]

For the roughly 165 teens in the Center Grove Marching Trojans, preparing for a band season takes the time commitment of a part-time job.
The students practice music and marching more than 17 hours a week to prepare for performances at football games and at regional and national competitions. The Trojans also are one of 12 high school marching bands from around the world that have been invited to participate in the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Adding in more practice hours to prepare for the parade isn't an option. The band already puts in a seven-hour Saturday practice on most weekends and will practice around competitions on other weekends. Besides, director Kevin Schuessler doesn't want the teens exhausted after competition season, when they will board buses for a whirlwind six-day trip to New York City.
"My goal is to respect the students and respect the parents more and more each day," Schuessler said. "We're not going to up the rehearsal schedule by 50 percent. We're just going to be more efficient."
With 12 weeks until Thanksgiving, the directors, volunteers and musicians look to put every minute of practice to best use.
The band's part- and full-time visual directors, who are paid with money raised by Center Grove's band boosters, spend more time helping students map out, practice and improve their marching designs.
Having more eyes on the field enables the band to develop and perfect the visual parts of their show more quickly.
The visual directors also work with the students to be sure they're carrying their instruments and marching properly.
Any time the band saves by learning and mastering this year's show earlier than usual will be needed so the students and directors can work on parade preparations.
That planning will include many details, such as deciding how the music will be performed during the 2.5-mile Macy's route and finalizing students' room assignments, chaperones, transportation and daily schedules while they're in New York, Schuessler said.
A company has been hired to serve as the travel coordinator.
"The main thing about it is you have to move up your timeline for when you need to get things done," Schuessler said.
Center Grove was selected to participate in the Macy's parade in May 2013, and Schuessler started making preparations for the trip with parade organizers and band volunteers and employees almost immediately. He knew he couldn't plan for the entire trip that far in advance, but he couldn't wait until this fall, either.
One early decision involved the music Center Grove would perform.
Previously, schools selected to perform in the Macy's Parade opted to perform Christmas music.
But when Schuessler spoke with parade officials, they told him that Center Grove's band needed to select music that showed why it was worthy of selection out of the more than 175 bands that applied.
The band will perform music from this season's show, which is titled "Understandings" and which Schuessler described as a cross between the animated film "The Lorax" and the adventure film "Avatar."
The theme of the show is about two societies learning to interact and co-exist, and the music from the show will be similar to the kind of scores an audience might hear during an adventure film, Schuessler said.
"We're not interested in intimidating anybody. We're interested in putting something out there that looks very different," he said.
Center Grove's regular marching season ends Nov. 15, and the band leaves for New York City nine days later.
So for the next several months, expect to see band members marching back and forth in Center Grove High School's parking lots so they can get used to parade marching.
Students will need to finalize their room and bus assignments. Parents and assistant directors will work with Schuessler to schedule when the band's equipment will be driven to New York and where it will be stored.
Dozens of instruments, drums and flags, and uniforms and shoes for all 165 band members need to arrive in New York on time and be securely stored during the trip.
"It's not as if we're waiting until two months before. There's been a lot of planning up to this point," Schuessler said.

Paleo Challenge - Day 6
Saturday, February 23, 2013
I wish I could say I'm rocking this diet and losing weight to inspire all of you but I'm not. I'm following the rules but not happily. My energy level is in the pits, my mood is all over the place. Every time we go spend the day out I get morose over all the snacks, sodas, and milkshakes I -would- normally be eating but aren't. I mean... I get really upset. I feel like I'm being seriously deprived. The little things are making it bearable, like finding a recipe for paleo sandwich bread that I can make in the microwave, but several times a day I ask myself why I'm doing this and end up talking myself out of cheating but only just. I know the reasons I'm doing it and I believe in them, I do. But I miss the treats a lot.
And I haven't lost so much as an ounce on the scale. Not one.

I'm not well versed on the Paleo diet, but I gave up all grains and most starches and sugars. It seemed to take forever for me to lose weight too. I mean months!! I would ready stories of how people did the same thing and lost weight effortlessly. Grrrr, I get frustrated just thinking about it. I would eat clean and exercise only to get on my scale week after week and have it say "error" (apparently, I exceeded the maximum capacity).
Anyway, the weight finally started coming off and I quit feeling angry about the stuff I was missing (for the most part). It is still a challenge, but it has been worth it in the long haul. I still have quite a way to go, but I am over 70 pounds closer than I was.
Sorry, I didn't mean to go on and on, it's just when I read how upset you get about missing the snacks and feeling deprived, I could totally relate. Hang in there, it will get better. I have found that exercise dramatically improves my mood. However, sometimes, I throw a mini fit about having to do it. I just let myself complain for a bit and I can hear how ridiculous I sound (shouting to no one), I think it may even fire my work out up a bit.

Everyone hates me!!! D:
Rated 3 / 5 stars
Not the most enjoyable game to play, but as this thing is a parody of art games I think it successfully captured that familiar sense of using subpar game mechanics to throw pretentious crap at us.
The only thing that amazes me is how many people don't seem to understand that a game called "Shitty Fucking Art Game" is suppose to be a big smug joke. I actually got a good chuckle out of the quality options in the pause menu.
Still, the game also has all the issues of a bad art game. Purposefully annoying controls on the assassin levels and stair climbing, crappy graphics, and a nonsensical plot make it less enjoyable to play.
In short, this game would only be like a 3 or 4 out of 10 normally, but the subtle and not so subtle jabs at the genre gave me a laugh. Would love to see you sense of humour in something less interactive and see if it was better for it.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Great Satire.
This was a nice parody of all the "deep" art games. The game worked well and it was clever. Also, I could watch my guy fall down the stairs all day.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I love the satire, and the unique 'behind your back' angle. The only thing you should have done more would be an overly-dramatic choice between two characters you don't give a shit about, then it would have covered every art game base.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Where ya been?
I looked at the author name for this game and I was thinking, "Hmmm... I remember this guy from somewhere." Then I remember that awesome flash vid you made, Supergirl. Dude, where were you all this time? Good to see you back and still kickin. Still got the stuff, I see. At least this game is good stuff. Hell, it's the best I've seen from you yet. Hope to see more of you often. Keep up the work.

715 ~ "It's Christmas in Canada"
Towards the end, when Cartman is getting ready to fight Kyle, he takes of his gloves, and they are clearly seen on the floor in front of him. A few seconds after Kyle hits him, the camera cuts to a wider angle, and the gloves are gone.
Not creative enough for a decent sig.

Job losses in temporary help services
April 14, 2009
Temporary help employment peaked in December 2006, a full year ahead of total nonfarm employment, and had fallen by almost 620,000 by December 2008.
Many see temporary help employment as a leading indicator of labor demand.
Job losses in temporary help services during the current contraction were similar to those seen in 2001 until about 10 months into the contraction, when job losses recovered slightly and employment in the industry stabilized. In 2008, the temporary help services industry continued to experience job losses at an accelerated pace.
Employment losses in temporary help services during the 1990 contraction were relatively mild, and the industry recovered within 2 years.
These data are from the Current Employment Statistics program and are seasonally adjusted. For more information, see "Substantial job losses in 2008: weakness broadens and deepens across industries," by Laura A. Kelter, Monthly Labor Review, March 2009.
Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, The Economics Daily, Job losses in temporary help services on the Internet at http://www.bls.gov/opub/ted/2009/apr/wk2/art02.htm (visited May 29, 2016).
