"Works as good as Frontline"
I have used Frontline for years then I heard alot of people complaining they changed the formula. So I decided to try something else. After reading reviews I decided to try this. So far it has worked just fine. I have been using it on my dogs for 4 months and it has worked GREAT !!!
"Flea and Tick Defense"
I have a Giant Schnauzer and a Miniature Schnauzer that have been using this product for 2 years now. We live in inland Mexico where ticks and fleas abound in our rainy season from early June to early October. I highly recommend the product. Les A. Jalisco, Mx.
frontline products, sorry, do not work in, Fl. 3 yrs, dealt with, tried it again, give me something that works before I die from $300., spent again, on b sh*t. By the way, I'm a nurse, from Mi. my 2 dogs, 1 cat, house pets, ferel cats outside, know how to do this, sick of spendinding all this $, my time, my health, etc., etc., something that works!!!!
"Central Florida"
This works really great!
So I was reading a review that someone wrote about hand picking fleas off by hand. The flea life cycle has many stages and can take up to 3 months to truly kill off all the fleas. I use this product on 2 danes,a rottie & a german shepherd. It took 2 months to get rid of the fleas but haven't seen one since. Fleas will not be gone overnight if your animal has an infestation
"Best Flea Defense"
I live in a place where there is a lot of sand so my dog is always infested with fleas. I have tried everything including Frontline and Advantix but nothing worked. As a last resort I decided to give this a try and I am so glad I did. My dog is flea free!!!
Tried it on my little Papillon and within 12 hours no more fleas. i will buy more , the price is right too...
I bought this product to replace expensive Frontline products for my Yorkies after they got fleas in mid-August. I have already seen results with fleas dying and after a month I am fairly certain that this product has cleared up the flea problems for my dogs. Great value
"Does not work"
Even if it has the same ingredients a Frontline Top spot it does not work at all. I put this on three of my dogs 5 days ago and and still picking fleas off by hand. This was a waste of money, time and I am an truly disappointed. Now I'm stuck and am afraid to put on another product for fear that it would be too much and make them ill. Lesson learned at the expense of my dogs and my own sanity.

The boy has little chance of becoming a man.
Tall, gangly and uncoordinated, lacking neither emotional nor physical confidence, basic human goals appear out of his reach.
Father deserted mother while he was fed from within. She has used his young presence as a wedge to prop open the rapidly closing door of her choices. Unhappy on levels she will never fathom, she has nonetheless plowed through the decaying thickness of her life, using him for what little comfort she is able to derive from a life that has always been a losing proposition.
Unwittingly, she has taught him that the vehicle of control is driven by manipulation. In fact, most of what she has passed along has been unwitting. Inner conflicts, emotional baggage, psychological ineptitude, all have been transferred to him as directly, and as unconsciously, as she nourished him in her womb.
An invidious IV, delivered through the senses, with a potential to destroy, not nourish.
This single mother can determine the quality of her child's life, wielding the power of God in total ignorance, under the diaphanous shroud of motherhood.
Determining ones destiny is a fundamental element of life. The tonnage of accumulated evidence that negates that precept, however, often muscles its way to the forefront, steering us in directions that simply don't work. It is how we wrestle with these forces that defines us. Anyone can swim with the tide.
Life is the ultimate metamorphosis. It becomes death.
A boy with little chance of becoming a man.
Unless I help.
His uncle.
We share the same name.
Entering his fourteenth year, (name) has command of very little. He is a passenger in the vehicle of fate, occupying a seat with no seatbelt, no exploding pillow of air to cushion the blow.
Discerning his interests and passions has not been easy. One syllable answers are neither evocative nor reflective. Critical thinking has not found its way into his thought process. Yet there is a native intelligence simmering beneath the cowering exterior.
He plays chess.
This unformed 14 year old plays chess, and he's good. Holds his own in dominoes, too.
A human book whose pages evoke so much more than its cover.
The audio visual world has been his babysitter since his life advanced to the vertical stage. Television plays the role of syringe, through which the mind-numbing liquidity of action movies and video games seeps into his veins, poisoning his mind. Thought-provoking flicks haven't crossed his radar yet, but they will.
I want to teach him about thought.
We go for pizza. The place is empty.
"I like linguica," he tells me. No linguica, I am told. For a second, I am tempted by the dramatic image of driving all over hell and back to find this kid linguica. Then I realize the incredibly short life span of the desires of a 14 year old.
"You're out of luck," I tell him. He shrugs, a gesture of such pure innocence that it sends me spinning back to my own fateful acceptance of things at that age.
Sitting at the bar, sipping soda, he parries my queries awkwardly. Enroute to his mouth, half the ingredients of his slice of pizza fall to his jeans. Questions turn to his mother.
"What time does she go to bed?"
"Eight o'clock. Around eight."
"That's early. When do you turn in?"
He thinks for a moment, juggling loyalties.
"Eleven, sometimes twelve or one."
"Does she go to bed that early because of drinking?"
He looks me in the eye for the first time. Betrayal and honesty clashing at the heart of his soul.
"Yeah, I think so," he says casually.
"Are you wondering why I've suddenly shown up in your life?"
He chews his pizza thoughtfully. A piece of sausage tumbles to the floor. He pretends not to notice.
"Yeah," he says softly, through a mouthful of food. I sigh. This boy will only understand part of my motivation.
"I think I can help you. Maybe teach you some things. How to act, how to deal with people. Maybe we can do some fun stuff together."
My turn to chew thoughtfully. I bite the bullet I've been gumming all night.
"You are going to have to, I'm afraid, grow up pretty fast."
He turns to look at me. The subtle change in my tone has registered viscerally with him. The honed antennae of a boy who's lived with a defective mother.
"What do you mean?"
Change must absolutely terrify this kid.
We stare at each other.
"Your mom has done all she can for you. To survive in the grown-up world, you're going to need to know a lot more about things that she can't teach you."
For a moment, the words don't seem to register. Then, through the waves of conflict and emotion that flow from brow to chin, I see him begin to understand. Putting his slice of pizza back on to his plate, he runs his greasy hand through his greasy hair.
"Like�like what things?"
"Well, as you progress, you'll see. In essence, I want to teach you how to become a man. Your own man."
He takes a deep breath, the exhalation broken by shudders.
Looking at me, he asks, "Why you?"
Why me, indeed.
When I drop him off at my sister's apartment, he speaks for the first time since I allowed his question to hang between us, unanswered, like a pi�ata stuffed with explosives.
"Are you gonna be my dad?"
"You only have one dad, and he is a bad man who doesn't want anything to do with you."
I let the power of those words wash over him.
"I'm going to be your friend."
He nods, turns and exits the car. His shuffling walk breaks my heart. I realize I have never seen his shoulders do anything but slump.
Rain begins to fall, heavily.
I leave the top down and drive home.

As it ought to be, the first weekend of summer is jam-packed with good entertainment options. Here are some of the highlights.
Up in Ogden this weekend, is a really fine music festival with a varied lineup including big-time songwriter Robert Earl Keen. Keen, a Texan who could have retired - from a coolness standpoint - in 1988 after writing "The Road Goes On Forever," which has been covered by The Highwaymen, among others. Pictured above, the 50-something crooner isn't the world's greatest singer, but his red-hot country-rock band more than makes up for their boss's shortcomings. This is a guaranteed party waiting to happen.
Other bands on the three-day lineup include Claire Lynch, The Get Down Boys and Elephant Revival, a winsome band from Colorado led by hippie diva Bonnie Payne. She sings about half of the group's songs and plays the meanest washboard this side of the Rockies.
Keen headlines the festival with a 9:30 p.m. set on Saturday. Tickets for all three days are $55. A single-day ticket for Saturday is $27.
Also this weekend is the big, crazy and always fun Utah Pride Festival, which will be happening all over downtown and should bring a huge party vibe to everything else that happens around SLC for the next few days. Tickets are availabe at utahpride.org, and prices vary depending on events.
And at The Urban Lounge on Saturday night is Texas songwriter Bob Schneider, who brings along up and coming songsmith Laura Warshauer for the 10 p.m. gig. Tickets are at 24tix.com.
And in the third straight sell-out to start the Red Butte Garden Summer Concert series, Missouri pop-rock superstar Sheryl Crow headlines a Sunday night show.
And the well-received "Million Dollar Quartet" theatrical production featuring tons of early Sun Records songs. The show is based on an actual evening of music that went down in Memphis near Christmas 1956, as Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and Johnny Cash gathered to mingle and perform. It's impossibly pointless to imagine the last 65 years of music without these four gentlemen and celebrating their art sounds like a great way to spend a night. The Capitol Theatre show continues through Sunday night, and tickets are available at arttix.org.

Scientists: We Cant Do Anything About The Antibiotic-Resistant Superbugs That Will Soon Kill Millions Of Us
endoftheamericandream.com / By Michael Snyder / November 18th, 2013
The wonder drugs that we have been using since the middle of the last century are rapidly losing their effectiveness, and medical authorities are warning that the emergence of very powerful antibiotic-resistant superbugs represents one of the gravest threats in the history of medicine. Of course the wonder drugs that I am talking about are known today as antibiotics. These drugs attack bacteria, and when they first began to be developed back in the 1950s and 1960s they were hailed as miracles that would save countless numbers of lives. Well, it turns out that nature is having the last laugh. All over the planet bacteria are developing resistance to these drugs, and scientists are warning that they cant really do anything to stop these superbugs. With each passing year these superbugs are gaining ground, and there appears to be not much hope on the horizon of being able to fight them. In fact, no new classes of antibiotics have been invented since 1987, and none are being developed right now. Meanwhile, scientists are telling us that many current antibiotic treatments will be completely obsolete by the year 2030. Are you starting to understand why so many high profile members of the scientific community are using the words catastrophic threat to describe this crisis?
An article about these superbugs that appeared in the Independent the other day got a lot of attention all around the world. That article claims that prominent British doctors are warning that these superbugs could undo a century of medical advances
READ MOREQuote:
Drug-resistant superbugs represent one of the gravest threats in the history of medicine, leading experts have warned.
Routine operations could become deadly in the very near future as bacteria evolve to resist the drugs we use to combat them. This process could erase a century of medical advances, say government doctors in a special editorial in The Lancet health journal.
Black Blade: Watch the movie "Contagion" for a fairly good scenario of how this could play out.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum is pleased to partner with Microsoft Zune for Five Minutes with Fame, an exclusive video series on the Zune Marketplace featuring singers, songwriters and bands at the forefront of today's music. After a behind-the-scenes tour of the Museum, we sit down with artists to talk about their music, their road to success, inspirations, being on tour and of course, some of their favorite artists and artifacts highlighted in the Museum. This week's featured artist is Travie McCoy.
Born Travis Lazarus McCoy in Geneva, NY, Travie McCoy first made a name for himself as the lead vocalist of the alternative rap group Gym Class Heroes. Outside of the band, McCoy is a rapper in his own right, having won the MTV Direct Effect MC Battle as well as having guest spots on tracks by Kelly Rowland and Tyga. After releasing four albums with Gym Class Heroes, McCoy began work on a solo record. In 2010, he released his first album without his band, Lazarus, on Fueled by Ramen. Blending elements of hip-hop, indie rock and soul that reflect his own eclectic musical tastes, McCoy enlisted the services of an equally diverse range of producers he'd admired, including Los Angeles-based trio the Stereotypes (Ne-Yo, Mary J. Blige); Detail (Lady GaGa, Akon); the Smeezingtons (B.O.B., Cobra Starship, Flo Rida); Evan "Kidd" Bogart (Adam Lambert, Beyonce); Lucas Secon (Sean Kingston, Pussycat Dolls); and rock veteran Josh Abraham (Velvet Revolver, 30 Seconds to Mars).
While the album almost turned toward a dark and cynical sound, the more time McCoy spent enjoying his new home Florida (where he was recording the album), the more he realized that his dark-hued draft of Lazarus would require a complete change of tune. The turning point came after recording the aforementioned "Billionaire" and "Dr. Feel Good," a funky showcase for Gnarls Barkley singer Cee-Lo Green, and a tune that might just be the most uplifting track McCoy has yet written.
And still McCoy shows no sign of slowing down. He is currently on tour with Gym Class Heroes supporting the anticipated release of their next album, The Papercut Chronicles II.
Below, Travie talks about his history with Gym Class Heroes, making a solo album and some of his favorite things he saw on display at the Rock Hall, including Johnny Cash's shoes.
Along with Microsoft's Zune Marketplace on PC and XBox Live, the only place you'll be able to see these videos is right here each week on rockhall.com. Stay tuned for next week's Five Minutes with Fame with Bullet for My Valentine!

New Trees Available to Wilmington Residents until April 18
Posted on 03/21/2014 11:29 am
Award-winning program for energy conservation & water quality
WILMINGTON – The Delaware Center for Horticulture (TheDCH) and the City of Wilmington announces a special program for residents of the city to plant trees this spring. From now until April 18, property owners can order high-quality shade trees worth $75 for only $20 each.
The primary goals of this initiative are to plant urban trees and to educate people in Wilmington about the value that trees have for energy conservation and water quality. For instance, a single mature tree, planted in the correct place, can save hundreds of dollars in energy bills and reduce flooding by capturing more than 16,000 gallons of stormwater runoff each year.
This nationally award-winning program was rolled out previously in the communities of Delaware City (2012) and Townsend (2013). TheDCH won first place awards for this program in the Delaware Press Association communications contest as well as the National Federation of Press Women competition. A similar program is being run simultaneously this spring by TheDCH in Bellefonte, Delaware.
Five native species of trees, 4 to 8 feet tall, are available for City of Wilmington homeowners and property owners. All have been selected by TheDCH arborists to thrive in Delaware's urban environments. Orders are due April 18. Trees will be available for pick up and planting in May.
Visit this link for more details about Trees for City of Wilmington: www.thedch.org/content/trees-CityofWilmington
A colorful brochure and poster can be downloaded at this webpage or picked up at various locations throughout the City.
This program has been made possible through partnerships with the City of Wilmington, DNREC and Delmarva Power.
In addition, the trees planted in the City of Wilmington will count towards Plant One Million, a regional partnership to plant trees throughout 13 counties in Delaware, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. TheDCH, the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society and the New Jersey Tree Foundation serve as lead partners in each of the three states. Learn more at www.plantonemillion.org/

Hello. I am a twenty year old from New York.
I recall visiting this website quite frequently during the early-to-mid 2000s where I would get information about my Pokemon games.
I'm a grown man now, and I've decided to get back into Pokemon. I was pleased to see this resource is still online after all these years, so here I am.
I first played Pokemon when it came to North America in 1998. I'm trying to get back up to speed by playing Emerald and Leaf Green again.
Nice to meet you.

Each time the Reese's Dark Peanut Butter Cups come out as a limited edition, I've always missed them. One of the original rounds, and you can see the wrapper on Mike's Candy Wrapper Page here, and as a part of the Dark Knight movie release last summer (I was only able to find the milk chocolate ones). I'm sure there were other released that I'm missing, but most of them came out at a time when I wasn't paying much attention to candy. Crazy, I know.
I only knew they were on shelves again by first finding them on display at my local Wawa and then seeing Cybele's review of them not even thirty minutes later.
The package design is interesting because looks like a RPBC, as it keeps the same colors and yet it's different enough to know it's not the normal kind. Aside from the word "DARK" printed on the front in white, I don't know what stood out to tell me this was a different candy beast. Telepathic candy vibes perhaps?
Out of the wrapper, the cups smell awesome and similar to the regular RPBC. I do get notes of something darker, more roasted and less sweet. The cups have one of those hard paper trays to sit on to protect them, and it has a game piece on it telling me I didn't win (the wrapper has a contest on the front as a part of some promo). Which is sad cause I could use $2,500,000. The cups themselves are much darker in appearance and the chocolate is a nice deep dark reddish brown. I glance at the ingredients list to see there's milk solids in here, which always confuses me as to why companies put them in dark chocolate. Is it cost effective? More shelf stable? Note to self: I need to look that up.
Handling the cups, they're very solid. No softness or sticking to my fingers like the normal kind. The bite is still soft and I was almost expecting a snap to the chocolate. The chocolate is still sweet, but much milder and more rich with a hint of coconut and strawberries. The peanut butter is the same as we all know and love: salty, roasted and very nutty with that signature texture. The milder chocolate and the peanut butter go so well together, as does the more rich texture of the chocolate. Luscious, just luscious.
It's hard to say they've improved on the original RPBC, as it's such a classic candy and has so much perfection about it. Still, I am just smitten with these and I find myself buying them again and again. I have a new candy crush.

My conversion is finished. I used a Tapco G2 fire control group. A Tapco disconnector spring, and retaining plate. A Tapco Ak buttstock. Tapco Saw
pistol group and A Tapco pistol grip nut. The parts cost $111.70 dollars shipped. I got them from carolinashootersupply. They came within a week.
I used a 8-32 bolt and nut to anchor the trigger gaurd.
Machine work, I demilled two rivits and three spot welds on the plate underneath the receiver. The pistol grip square hole had to be cut out as well. And, I drilled a hole for the the trigger gaurd nut. The hammer also has to be ground down , use the Saiga one for a guide.
I sanded the receiver, degreased it and used Krylon BBQ paint to touch it up.
It is ready to go to the range tommorro to test fire.

The Olympic Stadium, designed like a shell to recall the glories of Fabergé art, will provide a seaside setting for the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the 2014 Winter Olympics and 2014 Winter Paralympics.
In October 2013, the Central Bank of Russia issued a commemorative 100 rouble note, a hundred days before the start of the winter Olympic Games in Sochi. The blue tinted banknote depicts a flying snowboarder on one side, and on the other the Fisht Olympic Stadium and a firebird.
Figure skating has been contested in the Olympic Games since the 1908 Summer Olympics. In 1908 and 1920, the figure skating competitions were held in conjunction with the Games of the Olympiad. Since 1924, figure skating has been a part of the Winter Olympic Games.
Skaters qualify for the Olympic Games by belonging to a Member nation of the International Skating Union. 80% of the allotted places (24 men/ladies, 19 dance couples, 16 pairs) are determined by the results of the previous year's World Figure Skating Championships.

Friday night was a great night if you are a Central High Cougar fan as the Cougars hit the road to Marianna and secured their second victory this season. Now 2-0, Central defeated the Trojans 79-40. Tikal Smith led the Cougars with 19 points, Ricky Beckwood scored 13 points, Alonzo Murphy scored 12 and Anthony Lewis scored 10 while only one Trojan was able to put up double digits as Andy Jeers scored 10 points. Cougar Coach Willie Jackson told The Helena World, "It was a really competitive game and that is the kind of game that we like to play. They had a lot of speed just like we have and that made it a good game." When asked about the high turnover rate in Friday's game, Jackson noted, "We normally don't make that many turnovers but I think we got a little fatigued, too, and started making turnovers. It was pretty hot in that gym." The Cougar High School basketball team includes five football players that made the transitioned over to Coach Jackson. The coach related that, "They are coming in pretty good shape. Coach Smith did a real good job with them."

ZF-6918: Link annotations
Is this regarding the ability to add internal links to other points in the document? If so I agree that it's urgent.
I've had a look at how to implement them but the structure of Zend_Pdf is pretty complicated. If someone could advise me on how it works I'd probably be willing to implement this feature
Yes. That's internal links.
Done :)
PS It may have additional features for links decorating (e.g. border style and so on), please add new issue (feature request) for this if you see it's important
Thanks for implementing this feature, I'm sure many people will find it useful!
I don't have a specific need for things like border styling and I think there are probably higher priority feature requests :)
Does this update support external (hyper)links? That's more useful than styling for sure.
How can I change rectangle style in link annotation?

Barnes Named as UICFlames.com Student-Athlete of the Week
Dec. 5, 2012
CHICAGO – Men's basketball player Daniel Barnes has been named the UICFlames.com Student-Athlete of the Week for the period of Nov. 26-Dec. 2. Barnes recorded double-digit scoring performances in two UIC road wins last week to extend the Flames' winning streak to five games. Barnes has reached double figures in four-straight outings and for the week averaged 10.5 points, seven rebounds and two steals.
In last Tuesday's 58-46 win against Northern Illinois, Barnes scored 11 points and pulled down a game-high eight rebounds, which also tied a career-high.
At Northwestern on Saturday, Barnes collected 10 points, six boards and drilled a pair of three-pointers in the 50-44 triumph. The win marked the fourth-straight victory over the Wildcats, dating back to the 2002-03 season and head coach Howard Moore improved to 2-0 versus Big Ten opponents during his Flames tenure.
UIC has garnered some early-season recognition with their 6-1 start, receiving a No. 22 ranking on this week's CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major poll. The Flames begin a three-game homestand that starts with Roosevelt on Wednesday night, continues with undefeated Colorado State on Saturday and ends with Eastern Michigan on Dec. 15.
Barnes is the second consecutive men's basketball player to earn the UICFlames.com award as teammate Gary Talton picked the honor last week.

Santa, Baby
This year, The Estate was the chosen venue for Meals on Wheels' annual Santa for Seniors holiday luncheon. Chaired by Jill Berry, Dottie Smith and Jade Sykes Slover, the event called for attendees to bring a new, unwrapped gift that Meals on Wheels was able to later wrap and distribute to some of its homebound senior clients. Items included blankets, neck pillows and even magnifying glasses. After a decadent lunch, guests were more than happy to snap a few photos with Santa—and some even sat on his lap! It was a fun-spirited fete, and attendees left knowing they'd used the holiday spirit to help those in need. –Photography by Jim Fitts

Princeton Caps Wire-To-Wire Win At Brown Invite With Four Sunday Victories
Four victories during the final session helped the four-time Ivy League champion Princeton men's swimming and diving team to an impressive wire-to-wire victory at the 2012 Brown Invitational.
Princeton won the three-day event with 1,008 points, while Dartmouth (772) held off Army (735) for second place in the event. The Tigers will hope for similar success when the Ivy League Championships make their debut at the Katherine Moran Coleman Aquatics Center March 7-9.
The weekend also serves as the dual meets for Princeton against both Brown and Dartmouth, and the Tigers won both to get out to a 4-0 start for the season. The Tigers topped Dartmouth 197-103, and they topped Brown 215-84.
Reigning Ivy League mile champion Paul Nolle won the event Sunday, but he was pushed by freshman teammate Zach Ridout throughout the event. Nolle won in 15:28.03, while Ridout placed second in 15:29.09.
Freshman En-Wei Hu-Van Wright continued the strong start to his Princeton career with a victory in the 200 back in 1:45.52, making it the third-fastest time in school history. Teammate Conner Jager finished third in 1:49.00, while the duo of Adam Lebovitz (1:50.26) and Kaspar Raigla (1:52.13) finished sixth and seventh, respectively.
A pair of Tiger underclassmen put on a show in the 100 free final, and it was freshman Jeremy Wong who pulled off the narrowest of wins over sophomore Harrison Wagner. Wong moved into the Princeton Top 10 with his winning time of 44.16, while Wagner took second in 44.19.
Princeton took three of the top four spots in the 200 breast, though Dartmouth standout Nejc Zupan stole the show with a winning time of 1:53.87. Tiger freshman Byron Sanborn finished second in 2:00.03, while junior Daniel Hasler took third in 2:02.30. Freshman Teo D'Alessandro rounded out the top-four trio with a fourth-place time of 2:02.50.
Princeton had two more in the top four of the 200 fly, with freshman Marco Bove leading the way with a third-place finish in 1:48.21. Oliver Bennett took fourth in 1:48.30.
The Tigers closed the weekend with a dominant performance in the 400 free relay. The quartet of D'Alessandro, Wagner, Wong and Hu-Van Wright — three freshmen and one sophomore — won the event in 2:57.16, more than four seconds faster than any team in the field.
Princeton will return to DeNunzio Pool Jan. 5 for an afternoon showdown with Patriot League power Navy. Last year, the Tigers won a thriller over the Midshipmen by five points; two seasons ago, Navy handed Princeton its only dual loss at DeNunzio Pool since it opened in 1990.

An army of FBI agents, local police and deputies, swat members and hostage negotiators continued to focus on a small patch of land, at the Midland City home of 65-year old Jimmy Lee Dykes.
It's the spot where Dykes is holding a soon to be 6-year old boy he allegedly kidnapped from a school bus Tuesday afternoon, in a 6-by-8 foot bunker, buried 4 feet underground.
Authorities have been able to communicate with Dykes and the child, who the neighbors are calling "Ethan", using a 60-foot long PC pipe.
The child has not spoken to his parents, but police say he's unharmed and has his medication.
"How is the family holding up of this young boy?" asked NewsChannel Seven's Bergen Baucom.
"I think they're ok," answered Pinckard City Police Chief James Arrington.
Neighbors tell police they've know Dykes to spend at least 8 days at a time, living in the bunker.
"We've been told he has enough supplies to last a month, do you know how much is down there," asked Baucom.
"No I don't know what all is down there," answered Arrington.
"I spoke to one of the neighbors that lives across the street she said that she has seen that he does have a small propane heater that he has carried around to various locations on his property. As she stated, she hopes he carried that down there with him to keep the little child safe and warm," said Midway Assembly of God Pastor Micahel Senn.
So do the other residents of Midland City, and the nation, who've been watching this crisis play-out on national news programs.
"We are encouraging the community as well as the whole country, as a pastor, as a man of god to come together, as a nation to come together and pray for the safety of little Ethan."
As well as the family of 65-year old school bus driver Charles Poland, who Dykes allegedly shot and killed during Wednesday's kidnapping.
"They're just really having a hard time with the loss- the unexpected loss of her husband and their daddy."
Authorities say Dykes apparently chose "Ethan" at random, and is not related to the child.
Update #4: 1-31-13
Neighbors: Suspect in Ala. standoff was violent
MIDLAND CITY, Ala. (AP) -- Jimmy Lee Dykes moved to a rural Alabama neighborhood on a rutted red clay road more than a year ago. It didn't take long before he had developed a frightening reputation as a volatile man with anti-government views who threatened his neighbors at gunpoint and was viciously violent to wandering pets.
Multiple neighbors said Dykes, a 65-year-old retired truck driver, is the man suspected of boarding a school bus near his home, killing the driver and taking a 5-year-old boy hostage in a standoff that entered its second full day Thursday.
Alabama State Trooper Charles Dysart told reporters late Wednesday that negotiations with the suspect were ongoing. Earlier Wednesday, Sheriff Wally Olson said that authorities had "no reason to believe that the child has been harmed."
Update # 3: 1-30-13
Lawmaker: Alabama child held in bunker got medicine
MIDLAND CITY, Ala. (AP) -- An Alabama legislator says a 6-year-old boy who is being held hostage has been able to receive medicine and watch TV.
State Rep. Steve Clouse said Wednesday he met with authorities and visited the family of the boy.
The boy's captor is accused of intercepting a school bus on his rural road Tuesday and fatally shooting the driver before taking the boy.
Clouse described the standoff as a "static situation" and "a waiting game."
Authorities told him that the bunker on the suspect's property has electricity, food and a TV.
Neighbors have identified the man who lives on the property as a paranoid and combative retired truck driver named Jimmy Lee Dykes.
Meanwhile, the pastor of a nearby church helped comfort children who were on a rural Alabama school bus when a gunman killed the driver and took a 6-year-old boy.
Pastor Michael Senn said Wednesday, a day after the shooting, that the kids were "pretty shocked, traumatized."
He says "they saw everything that happened. They saw the man shoot the driver."
Senn says children on the street had been warned to stay away from him. He says "they'd go fishing and walk by his place and he'd try to talk to them."
Update #2: 1-30-13
Man linked to Alabama standoff was facing court
MIDLAND CITY, Ala. (AP) -- The Alabama man whose property is surrounded by police after a school bus shooting had been due in court on a charge of threatening neighbors.
Investigators have not released the suspect's name. Neighbors said the rural property near Dothan at the heart of the standoff Wednesday belonged to Jimmy Lee Dykes, a man in his 60s.
Court records showed Dykes had been scheduled to appear in court Wednesday morning to face a charge of menacing some neighbors as they drove by his house last month. The neighbors said he yelled and fired shots over damage he claimed their pickup truck did to a make-shift speed bump in the dirt road.
The standoff started Tuesday after a gunman boarded a stopped school bus, shot the driver and took a 6-year-old student.
MIDLAND CITY, Ala. (AP) -- Authorities have converged on an Alabama community in a bid to resolve a standoff with a man authorities say fatally shot a bus driver and abducted a 6-year-old child passenger.
The Dale County Sheriff says the man shot the driver in Midland City on Tuesday afternoon after he refused to let the child off the bus. The unidentified driver later died of his wounds.
Authorities say the shooter took the child to an area behind a church and police are negotiating with him.
Police say early Wednesday that state troopers, a SWAT team and FBI agents had gathered nearby. The sheriff's office told The Associated Press it would not release immediate details.
Dothan police spokeswoman Rachel David said residents were evacuated from their homes as a precaution.

What do you think the nature of women is as a whole, lets try to solve this life long mystery.
Greatness Reincarnated
I think that topic is pretty broad; we could focus on a lot of things about woman that make up our nature. We could ask the same question about men.
I'm bringing sexy forward
trying to overcome penis envy
"I'll go," said Chagataev. "But what will I do there? Build socialism?"
"What else?" said the secretary.
this is the first time i've had multiple hatreds of this magnitude surface at the same time. it has left me unable to think in clear sentences, and it's amazing i'm making a coherent post of it.
Girls are very complex creatures. Even I, one of their kind, find myself utterly baffled by what so many of them do.
When the Devil is too busy
And Death's a bit too much
They call on me by name you see,
For my special touch.
^ Me too.
I was watching "Monique's Charm School" earlier, and I thought, "Why are these girls such bitches to each other?!" I simply could not comprehend what caused them to act that way. There was no rhyme or sound reason to what they were doing, other than to be plain rotten. I couldn't understand it.
[SIZE="1"]Pairs: The Blind Eye of Deception [DSX] | The Ninjassassin [Sasuke] | The Hadouken! [The Azn Party Boy]
I just want to discuss it I cannot hope to understand such extremely complex creatures, it is like finding out what form water will take.
Greatness Reincarnated
Then why not try to become more simple, sorta like us men. I know im simple all I want is a nice girl and I know what I want in that girl.
Can you explain to me how your kind can be so indecisive
Greatness Reincarnated
I have no fucking clue. I like to hand out with guys but when they reach 14 they don't want to play with girls even if you want to play basketball.
And girls after 14......I know why women are obsessed with their weight. they stoped playing sports.
Most guys get like that becuase they become fiminist and start to think of girls just as sex, not a partner. And women I guess stop playing becuase they dont want to be labeled or somethin like that.
Greatness Reincarnated
it sucks. I don't know if that is why girls stop playing sports though.
I never was a big fan of sports, but I also was never, and still am, rather tom-boyish.
A lot of guys I know say that I'm really easy to hangout with. Yes, I am a female, but I'm easy going about it. If girls just stopped being so extreme when it came to feminism, guys would be more comfortable around them. It's all about balence
When the Devil is too busy
And Death's a bit too much
They call on me by name you see,
For my special touch.
I never got girls. The way I see it, they make alot more diffrent decisions then men. One word: Estrogen
Balance cant be acheived in this world, and why are you girls so sensitive? I mean seriously you women are skeptical as hell, why cant you just chill, then life would be much simpler.
Greatness Reincarnated
is that slang for sex
"I'll go," said Chagataev. "But what will I do there? Build socialism?"
"What else?" said the secretary.
well FA, I can't do that at 20! even though it's fun. but I rather play football
Its good that I win two cause I am a very sore loser when it comes to wrestaling guys. I find both girls and guys strange. Girls and guys both say im weird so maybe its just me.
uhh well really, i just think its hormonal( i don't know if that's how to spell it) because my mom has bad anxiety from hormones from having me. I was a big boy. 9 lbs 3oz.

A student of concern is any student who is displaying behaviors that may get in the way of a student's ability to be successful in the University environment.

Other times, behaviors are being noticed by many members of our community and creating a significant amount of concern. While Gonzaga does its best to give individual time and attention to every student, there are some behaviors that may go unnoticed until a caring person tells us about them. We invite you to share your concerns so that Student Development professionals can reach out and provide support to students who may need more assistance.
The Student of Concern form is one way you can share that you are concerned about a student. Simply click on the "STUDENT OF CONCERN" form link on the lefthand menu, You will be connected directly to a form where you can fill in as much information as you want about the student you are concerned about. Someone from Center for Cura Personalis or their designee will reach out to provide the student support and resources. If you would prefer to discuss your concern with someone, you can call the Center for Cura Personalis at 509-313-2227.
There are a number of other forms available for more specific situations.

Scalable staging buffer for goods-to-person picking operations
Generating up to seven times greater throughput in a smaller footprint than conventional storage systems, the Multishuttle staging buffer feeds workstations at high rates to keep workers fully utilized. The system is ideal for applications that require dynamic product sequencing to support goods-to-person order fulfillment, pick face replenishment, palletizing, and production buffers. Included are multiple levels of rack structure, carrier vehicles, conveyor and software. Each level of the rack structure includes input/output conveyor and a carrier vehicle that travels horizontally to access loads stored in the rack structure (typically totes or trays). An extraction device on each carrier vehicle accesses the loads in the rack. The system may be configured in a variety of layouts, including overhead spaces and under/over obstructions for the best cube utilization. Dematic, 800-457-9783, http://www.dematic.us Booth. 3603 and 3612.
Voice-directed software with graphical management
The latest version of Jennifer VoicePlus software for voice-directed warehouse operations has been released. Included is the Engage management services console, an Internet application that provides a suite of graphical management tools to analyze and manage voice operations. Also offered is Mobile Engage, a smartphone/PDA-based application providing the same management capabilities for mobile devices. This functionality enables managers to be on the warehouse floor without losing touch with critical operational information. The systems are ideal for use in grocery and foodservice, retail, medical products, industrial supply, and consumer product goods distribution. Lucas Systems, 724-940-7000, http://www.lucasware.com Booth. 3879.
Tilt-tray, cross-belt sorters offered
The IntelliSort CB cross-belt and TT tilt-tray sorters for high-volume distribution centers, parcel hubs and fulfillment operations reliably handle sortation in high-capacity, high-speed sorting environments. Both cross-belt and tilt-tray technologies are ideal for use in applications with a variety of product sizes and shapes that require high throughput and accurate sortation. Compact and modular, the sorters may be used in new construction or retrofit applications. Intelligrated, 866-936-7300, http://www.intelligrated.com Booth. 2903.
AGV converts to operator-guided forklift
Morphing manual and automatic operations, a new hybrid automated guided vehicle allows an operator to interrupt automatic AGV operations, move product manually and then place the forklift back into fully automatic laser guidance mode. The vehicles are offered in two sizes—3,500- and 5,500-pound capacities—with lifting heights up to 23 feet. Typically interfacing with deep lane floor stacking, pushback rack, drive-in rack and standard racking, the vehicle features industrial lead-acid batteries, laser guidance and navigation, advanced laser safety systems, graphical touchscreen monitor, Windows OS and wireless communications. Options include RFID readers, bar code scanners, 3D camera technology, robotic battery exchange, automatic battery charging, mechanism side-shift and single/double fork systems.

Robotic imaging, picking cell
The Robo-Pick fully automatic picking cell compiles shipments from two to 20 articles in the correct quantity from a range of 5,000 to 50,000 articles in stock. The system combines 3D and 2D picture processing to identify products on a passing tray. Products in several layers or inclined position, jet-black articles, round products or asymmetric or beveled packages do not affect the vision system. Individual products do not need to be programmed into the system, which uses already existing allocations of transport units and SKUs in automated warehouses to ensure that the customer receives the correct articles. Schaefer Systems, 800-876-6000, http://www.ssi.schaefer-us.com Booth. 2303.
Reinforced construction enhances vertical carousel's reliability
Engineered for enhanced reliability and uptime, the Avenger vertical carousel uses a patent-pending forging to reduce stress on structure components, plus double-reinforced arm assembly to provide extra strength and durability. Each carrier (shelf) has eight scissor arms to eliminate bending, tearing and breaking. A forging and roller attaches the arms to the track, instead of traditional pin and roller assembly, to reduce stress and prevent system failure and machine damage. The carousel is offered in multiple models for light- to heavy-weight applications, with warranties up to 10 years on some models. Sapient Automation, 800-639-5805 http://www.GetSapient.com/Avenger Booth. 4231.

Jamaica Dee
Jezebela Denise
Jonah Diamond
Jenna Desiree
Jayla Denali
Jonah is typically male, but I think a feminine middle name could cancel that out and make it cute for a girl. Denali is also listed as a male name on this site, but I think it sounds pretty unisex. Desiree is pronounced DES-uh-ray.
Good luck!
Edited to add: Not sure if you're looking to continue the theme of nicknames that end in the -ee sound...but if you are, the names above can be nicknamed Jamie, Jessie, Jonie, Jenny, and Jaylee. Hope you find what you're looking for!

Just what we wanted!
By Karen the Gardener
from Cincinnati, OH
Couldn't find a detailed map of northwest India in local stores, so I was happy to find this one on-line. We're traveling to India in Nov-Dec of this year, primarily to attend a wedding in Jaipur, but also to do some sightseeing. This map provides distances so we can estimate travel time, and also provides locations of some points of interest. We're using the map as we work with our travel agent, and have recommended it to other family members who will be traveling from other points in the US, all of us meeting up in Delhi.

but its 70 degrees north eastern us in january
but its 70 degrees north eastern us in january
the news pisses me off so much. no one acts like its a problem you just see interviews with stupid people laughing and saying how great it is to be biking jogging and going to the new jersey shore in the middle of the winter!!
That's funny since it's normal here... 50 degrees.
Same. And what about that Al gore movie?
yeah there have always been unseasonal wether for a couple days but overall in the 1880s around this area there was harsh winter where plenty of people died from freezing to death
when was the last time there was such unseasonal warmth around here for this long a period of time
not saying i believe in global warming or anything just yet
Global Warming is a concept that's a factual concept, but currently the most debated topic on earth about whether it is chiefly human actions that affect it.
global warming exists, and humans contribute to it. however they don't contribute to it as much as we all originally thought, but getting off fossil fuels just to help in the slightest is better than doing nothing at all.
we haven't gotten even a trace of snow in ct. I don't like snow but it's something that I feel must happen to make winter winter.
CELSIUS > fahrenheit
it's 17 right now
celsius is way cooler than fahrenheit
though celcius reminds me of a summon spirit from the Tales games
so celcius is pretty cool
but not as cool as fahrenheit because it's a german word
I think that theres some truth to it. But not really.
Tales? Tales of Symphonia? If so, never had the chance to play it. so i wouldn't know
I used to want tales of symphonia real bad but I just lost interest in gaming when I could but it.
Tales of Symphonia is a really good game; I'm glad I bought it. But actually, Peeki, the whole "Tales" is a series of games, like Tales of Phantasia, Tales of the Abyss, Tales of Legendia and more.
Awesome. Any specific consoles these games are in?
Tales of Symphonia=GC
Tales of the Abyss and Legendia=PS2
Tales of Phantasia=GBA

Moving Forward
In the five years since, from A Walk on the Moon through The Perfect Storm through Unfaithful through this spring — when, in addition to Fierce People, she will also be seen in Killshot, a thriller by Shakespeare in Love director John Madden — she has become the onscreen embodiment of the experienced woman. This is what experience looks like: sensual, maternal, sexy, strong, surprising, and wryly good-humored.
Of plastic surgery, she says, "I don't feel that apologetic yet. I feel like you're apologizing if you have plastic surgery, apologizing for nature and history and experience. I take comfort that aging happens to everybody. It's part of life. Aging offers great lessons in dignity, since the indignity wins in the end. Yes, it bothers me when I have lines or puffiness or droops. But it connects me with the human race. Like weather bringing people together, aging brings people together." But then she adds, "I'm also terrified of a doctor making me look like somebody else. If I could see the after picture and say, 'That looks great,' then maybe I'd opt for it. Maybe I'm just a chicken shit, actually."
The Death of an Actress
In the kids' store in Toronto, clutching her book selections, she proceeds to a basket jam-packed with tiny plastic windup toys. "We're starting a new tradition — a Christmas elf who leaves little things around the house," she whispers conspiratorially, as if her children in California (in addition to Eleanor, there are Lane's stepchildren, Eden Brolin, also 12, and Trevor Brolin, 17) might be hiding within earshot. "When Christmas comes around again, one of these would be perfect." Of course the toy she picks — an electric-blue penguin — is wound so tightly that it can't hop. A saleslady mysteriously appears and deftly removes it from Lane's hand, saying, "Once they're dead, they're dead." Lane regards her and says evenly, "Yes, that's my understanding of death as well."
"I was killed in every play I did," she says, laughing, in a nearby wine bar. She takes off her coat and scarf, revealing a delicate green western-style cotton shirt fastened with mother-of-pearl buttons. As a child, she toured Iran, Holland, and Italy as an actor with the avant-garde La MaMa Troupe, unchaperoned by either parent. "I was killed in Electra, Medea, and The Trojan Women. In Agamemnon, I got impaled. I was thrown off a cliff. I died on stage in every way there was to die except suffocation. I was in Greek tragedies, and they deal with the death of innocence. Only later did I pay attention to what I'd been doing with my childhood. It was a sign of that expansive, experimental time that I was entrusted with the care of myself."
Lane's Lovely Life
Her own innocence long gone, Lane is lively. Whenever she recalls an experience, expressions flicker over her face as if she's watching a private movie and experiencing each scene as exciting and newly minted. When she talks, she uses her hands and takes on different voices. She climbs onto a wooden chair to demonstrate how gingerly she perched on hot Jeep seats while honeymooning in Death Valley with Brolin two summers ago. Describing the communal spirit that develops during filmmaking — "An intense intimacy occurs when creative people share a goal" — she smacks her palm onto the center of her chest. Then she gazes searchingly around the restaurant and whispers, "You forget that life is waiting for you."
The life that awaits Lane is still, in good measure, a mother's life, an experience she has been able to use often in her work. In Fierce People, a 16-year-old boy's coming-of-age story set on the East Coast in 1978, she plays a mother who initially acts more screwed up than her screwed-up kid. "This is going to sound crazy," she admits, "but the truth is my stepson read the script — the protagonist is about the age he was at that time — and he liked it and told me that I should do it." She also felt drawn to the era and the mother-son relationship. "It's that last time before the son starts losing complete faith in his mother," she says, softly.

The plugs are probably overkill for a cable which retailed at £12/m, so I'd be willing to split if anyone is interested in the plugs or cable alone. I can also reterminate the cable if necessary,
Cable terminated with Bayonets £65

Stetson Rallies With Four-Run Ninth To Claim Series Against Tiger Baseball
A six-run seventh inning put the Princeton baseball team in position to earn a weekend split at Stetson, but the Hatters used a ninth-inning rally to claim their third one-run win of the weekend.
Stetson third baseman Carlos Germandia singled in the winning run with one out in the ninth to complete a four-run rally for Stetson, which improved to 7-7 on the season. The hard-luck Tigers, who also saw Stetson score a run in both the ninth and 12th innings Friday in another 7-6 loss, fell to 1-7 on the season.
Through six innings, both starting pitchers dominated the game. Stetson led 2-0, though both runs off Princeton starter Mike Ford were unearned. Princeton got its offense rolling in the seventh, batting around and scoring six runs.
Shortstop Billy Arendt got the scoring started with an RBI single. After an error led to the tying run, Peter Owens earned a bases-loaded walk to give Princeton a 3-2 edge. After a sacrifice fly by Danny Hoy, rightfielder Steve Harrington drove a two-run double down the rightfield line to open a 6-2 lead.
Stetson got another unearned run in the seventh and trailed 6-3 entering the ninth. A two-run triple by Kevin Fagan got Stetson within one run, and Tanner Blackman was hit by a pitch to set up first and third with one out. Tyler Foote, Princeton's second pitcher of the inning, got a ground ball back to him and tried for the game-ending double play, but the Tigers only managed the out at second base.
Fagan scored on the play to tie the game, and Germandia finished it three batters later with a bases-loaded single to left field to win the game.

Can I import 3D or autocad files into Vyew?
You cannot upload 3D or autocad files directly, but the best way to get them in
is to use the built-in screen capture tool. Without an installation you can instantly capture
and import whatever is on your screen into your VyewBook meeting with 2 clicks.
The screen capture tool is located along the top toolbar panel once you enter a VyewBook.
