Bail / Bond
Bail & Bond Defined
The most common way to get out of jail before trial is to post bail or bond. The terms "bail" and "bond" are often used interchangeably, but they're different pieces of the same system. Bail is generally described as the money or other value that must be posted for a person charged with a crime to get out of jail until the trial.
If you have been arrested or charged with a crime, a local defense attorney may be able to best explain bail and bond in regards to your charges. Simply fill out the free online evaluation form on this page or call 877-445-1059 to connect with an attorney today.
Judges are responsible for setting bail, and the United States Constitution prohibits "excessive bail". In many cases, courts produce standard bail schedules which are posted at the jail. This allows a criminal defendant to post bond without waiting to appear in court and have bail set.
A bond is essentially a third-party payment of bail on behalf of the defendant.
Reduction of Bail
If the defendant can't raise the amount of bail specified, a criminal defense attorney can petition the court to reduce his bail, or even for release on recognizance. This may occur at the arraignment, or the defendant may be required to request a separate hearing on the reduction of bail.
In determining the appropriate bail amount, courts may consider such things as the crime in question, the potential penalties, the defendant's ties to the community, whether or not the defendant is employed, and the defendant's history of appearing as scheduled in any other court proceedings. All of these factors help the court to weigh the likelihood that the defendant will appear for trial, which is what bail is intended to ensure.
A criminal defense attorney in the county where the charges are filed should be able to explain which factors carry the most weight in the local court system and what kinds of evidence will be most helpful at a bail reduction hearing.
In most states, the defendant must post the full amount of the bail (or equivalent property) before he is released. Often, the defendant won't be able to cover that cost on his own, and so will have to work with a bondsman. A bondsman writes a bond that guarantees the bail, so that the defendant doesn't have to produce the full amount in cash.
Working with a Bondsman
The major advantage to working with a bondsman is that the defendant can get out of jail with a much smaller cash investment ‒ usually about 10% of the bail amount. The advantage for the courts is that the bondsman, who stands to lose the full amount of bail if the defendant fails to appear in court, has a powerful incentive to ensure that he does. In most states, bondsman can arrest a defendant who has failed to appear and bring him before the court ‒ or back to jail.
The downside, and one that many criminal defendants have trouble with, is that the 10% posted is the bondsman's fee. If the defendant posts the full amount of bail in cash, the money is returned to him (less, in some states, a small administrative fee) at the conclusion of the case if he has appeared as required.
However, if the bail is guaranteed by a bondsman, then the cash the defendant pays up front is payment to the bondsman. That means that even if the charges are ultimately dismissed or the defendant is found not guilty, he still doesn't get that money back.
It's a fair system, since the bondsman has to make a profit for his work and the risk that he takes, but it's money gone forever that could have been recouped if the defendant were able to post bail in cash.
The bondsman will also require a guarantee for the full amount of the bail, so if the defendant fails to appear and the bondsman is required to forfeit the bail, the defendant (or other person who guaranteed the bond) owes him the full amount. In addition, the bondsman can collect any costs associated with finding the defendant and bringing him back to court or jail. Depending on the defendant's history and the amount of the bond, the bondsman may require security such as a lien on property to guarantee the bond.
Property Bonds
In some states and in some circumstances, the court will accept a property bond directly from the defendant in lieu of cash. This might allow the defendant, for instance, to post his home as collateral to ensure his appearance. The risk is the same as when such property is used as a guarantee with a bondsman ‒ if the defendant fails to appear, the property can be seized. However, posting a property bond directly with the court may, depending upon local procedures and administrative fees, be less expensive than working through a bondsman.
Release on Recognizance
In some cases, the defendant can be released "on his own recognizance". Basically, this means that the defendant is released on his promise ‒ usually written ‒ to appear for all scheduled court dates. Practices vary from state to state, and even from court to court, but generally the eligibility of a defendant to be released on recognizance depends on factors similar to those applied in setting bail:
- the crime in question
- the defendant's criminal history
- the defendant's history of appearing in court as scheduled
- family and/or longtime residence in the community
- employment
Discuss Bail & Bond with a Criminal Defense Attorney
It's only natural that when someone is arrested, he wants to get out of jail as quickly as possible. Sometimes it's an absolute necessity, where waiting even a day or two might mean lost employment, no one to care for children, etc.
If you need to discuss your options regarding bail, bond and recognizance, speak with a criminal defense attorney. Simply fill out our free online evaluation form or call 877-445-1059 to connect with an attorney in your area today.

The husband of Bravo reality star Phaedra Parks appeared in federal court in Atlanta Tuesday to hear his sentence on charges of conspiracy to commit fraud. Apollo Nida, 35 has been regularly featured on the cable reality series "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," which follows the lives of several wealthy and influential Atlanta area women. Earlier this year Nida was arrested for his alleged role in a conspiracy to commit mail, wire and bank fraud. According to investigators the scheme that involved defrauding auto lenders with stolen checks in 11 states netted more than $2.3 million.
In a downtown Atlanta courtroom, Judge Charles Pannell handed down an eight year prison sentence in accordance with federal sentencing guidelines. According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Nida could have been sentenced to as much as 115 months. Nida's attorneys had been pushing for a much lower sentence taking into account his upbringing and other factors. Nida's mother testified that when he was growing up she was a drug addict. The defense tried to persuade the judge that other factors including Nida not finishing high school led him to commit the criminal acts he has pled guilty to. However the judge wasn't convinced, perhaps largely because this isn't Nida's first conviction. He served a six year sentence in state prison on a similar charge.
On the Bravo reality series, Nida boasted about spending his own money on strippers. During one particular episode it was revealed that Nida and other husbands on the reality series frequently hang out at strip clubs and that Nida's indulgences at the clubs have on times exceeded $8,000; to the shock of the other housewives.
Nida is married to Atlanta based celebrity attorney and mortician Phaedra Parks. Her most notable clients have included recording artist Bobby Brown, Ludacris and Jermaine Dupri. Many were surprised at Nida's arrest considering who he's married to. When Nida and Parks married in 2009, their ceremony was attended by the who's who of Atlanta especially in the entertainment and legal communities. It has been reported that Georgia Supreme Court Justices Carol Hunstein and Robert Benham were among the invited guests as well as former Georgia Lt. Governor Mark Taylor.
Judge Pannell issued a recommendation that Nida be placed in a federal facility close to Atlanta, in consideration to his family. Nida has two sons with Parks, Ayden and Dylan. It's possible that Nida can reduce his sentence by participating in a drug rehabilitation program. However it's not clear whether he had an addiction problem prior to his arrest.
Phaedra Park is expected to appear in the next season of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta". Nida is currently free on bond until the U.S. Bureau of Prisons tells him to report to a facility serve his sentence. Federal prosecutors have not linked or suggested that Parks was involved in Nida's criminal activities.

The cost of health insurance is projected to increase, leaving many families and individuals scrambling to figure out how to pay for it. While affordable health insurance can be hard to find, it makes sense for everyone to re-evaluate how much they are spending on this area of their budget at least once a year.
Major medical insurance is probably one of the most complicated financial products that a typical American household purchases. As rules and terms on the policies change, the price of the policy changes, and the personal healthcare needs of everyone in the household should be considered when they are evaluating their health insurance options.
Terms on health insurance policies change at least once a year, if not more frequently. Start by reading through the terms of your current policy and noting any changes. Pay attention to the list of in-network providers, since these can change frequently. If your doctor is not listed, it may be time to select a new policy.
Next, look at the cost of the policies that are available to you. While some policies may not change their rates at all, other policies will pass on higher costs to their customers by increasing premiums, increasing deductibles, and/or increasing the amount of co-payments. Of course, comparing all of these factors over several policies can get complicated, so it may be a good idea to make your own spreadsheet in order to evaluate all of the policies together.
Finally, consider the healthcare needs of your household. Even if your household is usually in good health, think about the upcoming events of the next year and what healthcare needs they may have. For example, if you have small children who are starting sports, it may be time to increase emergency room coverage. If you're considering expanding your family, then add maternity coverage and increase your hospitalization coverage. In the same way, if you are done having kids, you might be able to save money by dropping maternity coverage. Also think about scheduling surgeries or other elective procedures.
By considering your healthcare needs along with the changes in your current policy and other policies being offered, it may be possible to get better healthcare coverage and/or decrease the amount that you are paying. If you choose to go with a higher deductible or co-payment on your policy, make sure that you have enough in savings to cover a sudden emergency.

Didn't take long… the trail or the prostitution of this tragedy.
Martin wasn't trespassing…oh why bother. You're gonna spam the next six toons with no replies anyway.
Listening to her interview, heard the wife of a lawyer with the personal "brights" of a redneck fire plug. Don't know about a book deal, but it's probable.
Those prosecutors brought there witnesses to help out the defensive team. Even their star witness, Martins bright girl friend turned out to verify Zimmerman's account. What boneheads. Even the authorities knew that Zim, was not going to be found guilty. They warned the blacks not to get violent if the verdict did not go their way. Sure enough, they torched those cities in Cal. And they did not get arrested. what gives. What about those 30 or so blacks in Chicago that got murdered. Why hasn't CNN not reported on this?
The "Would be Book Deal " will be an account on the bonehead prosecutors. Well worth reading, wait for it.
Martin was no 13 year old little Boy. And Do Not Call a 6 ft. 17 year old black with a hoodie, A "BOY".
Give me a break, you act like Martin was little mister innocent. He was a drug dealing drug using criminal. He was kicked out of school for drugs, he tried to beat a man to death. Zimmerman should have done things differently but never the less Martin was no saint. I'm sick of the media using a little boy school photo instead of the current one that showed the real Martin. He wasn't a nice person.
Obama, Eric Holder and Al Sharpton had no business sticking their two cents in either.
Was the decision in the case of George Zimmerman killing Trayvon Martin influenced by race? To answer that question, consider this: keep the facts of the case exactly the same only change the races. That is, George Zimmerman is a black man shooting a white teenager. What do you think the decision would be in that case?
you think thats what happened ? i think he saw the gun and attacked him to defend himself because he thought zimmerman was going to kill him
Since when is it being a law abiding citizen to bash somebody else's head against the pavement? Does that mean I can find any black person that is smaller than me and I can be a law abiding citizen by bashing his head against the pavement?
"Does that mean I can find any black person that is smaller than me and I can be a law abiding citizen by bashing his head against the pavement?"
Since we're playing Trumps, here are the stats:
Martin weighed 158lbs/72kgs, stood at 5'11"/1m80. Well, lying on the coroner's table.
Zimmerman weighed 185lbs/84kgs, stood at 5'7"/1m70 on the 11th of April, 2012 when finally arrested.
But weighed 200lbs/91kgs and stood at 5'8"/1m73 on the night of the shooting 26th Feb, 2012
Martin had height advantage of between 3-4 inches/7,5-10cms while Zimmerman had weight advantage of 42lbs/21kgs or 27lbs/12 kgs.
Let's go for the former since one is unlikely to shrink an inch but possible to have lost some weight over 2 months.
Lying on the ground height advantage is less of an issue, weight is a better advantage. Although having a gun makes weight moot; it trumps most things, why make use of one's weight advantage when one can use the gun.
Zimmerman was an adult of 28;
Martin a minor of 17.
Zimmerman's advantage of 11 years experience over Martin.
Zimmerman was armed with a handgun, Martin a bag of skittles.
Not sure of the calorific content of a gun but I suppose zero; advantage Martin.
Other facts:Martin was walking back to his father's fiancée's home,therefore not a trespasser within this gated community;
Zimmerman lived with his fiancée, the resident who held the rental contract and therefore not a trespasser.
Advantage: none.
Zimmerman had a car; Martin was a pedestrian.
Advantage Zimmerman in terms of speed in case of flight;
Advantage Zimmerman in terms of protective shell;
Advantage Martin in terms of manoeuvrability in fleeing i.e. hopping over fences etc, if possible.
How a Miami School Crime Cover-Up Policy May Have Led to Trayvon Martin's Death
MIAMI-HERALD, By Robert Stacy McCain on 7.15.13
Trayvon Martin was not from Sanford, the town north of Orlando where he was shot in 2012 and where a jury acquitted Zimmerman of murder charges Saturday. Martin was from Miami Gardens , more than 200 miles away, and had come to Sanford to stay with his father's girlfriend Brandy Green at her home in the townhouse community where Zimmerman was in charge of the neighborhood watch. Trayvon was staying with Green after he had been suspended for the second time in six months from Krop High School in Miami-Dade County , where both his father, Tracy Martin, and mother, Sybrina Fulton, lived.
Both of Trayvon's suspensions during his junior year at Krop High involved crimes that could have led to his prosecution as a juvenile offender. However, Chief Charles Hurley of the Miami-Dade School Police Department (MDSPD) in 2010 had implemented a policy that reduced the number of criiminal reports, manipulating statistics to create the appearance of a reduction in crime within the school system. Less than two weeks before Martin's death, the school system commended Chief Hurley for "decreasing school-related juvenile delinquency by an impressive 60 percent for the last six months of 2011." What was actually happening was that crimes were not being reported as crimes, but instead treated as disciplinary infractions.
Go to the paper for the whole story about this thug.
Demonise the victim, good one.

I have a piecewise linear interpolation:
$$ B(t) = \frac{t_{l+1}-t}{t_{l+1}-{t_{l}}} B_l + \frac{t-t_l}{t_{l+1}-{t_{l}}} B_{l+1} \quad \text{ if $t \in (t_l, t_{l+1})$;}$$ $B(t_l)=B_{l}$ and $B(t) = B_0$ for $t \leq0$.
I want to use that $B(t)$ is uniformly continuous on whole $R$. Is there an easy argument for that? (For example if from continuity on R and uniform continuity everywhere but in $t_1, t_2, \cdot$ (countable many points) would follow uniform continuity everywhere). Or maybe there is an elegant way via Lipschitz-continuity? I think the uniform continuity inside the intervals $(t_l, t_{l+1})$ is clear, it's just the question how to put it all together without having to recede to the $\epsilon$-$\delta$-definition.
Q: Is there a better (shorter/more elegant) way to follow uniform continuity here?
The red line would be a line with slope = supremum of the slopes on the distinct intervals, the orange line is a sample secant line.

Mark-Anthony Turnage is a contemporary composer
who successfully fuses the music of the concert
hall with improvisatory jazz. His music reflects
his sharp awareness of the world around him -
the arts, politics and everyday life, including
football. He is an avid Arsenal supporter!
A number of his works reflect his abiding interest
in the First World War and its aftermath.
'Silent Cities', was inspired by a
visit to the cemeteries on the Somme and named
after the writer Rudyard Kipling's description
of that same place. This work is dedicated to
the memory of Sir Michael Tippett.
The Torn Fields
'The Torn Fields' is a song-cycle for baritone
soloist and ensemble, settings of First World War poetry
and prose by Wilfred Owen, Isaac Rosenberg, Charles
Sorley, Siegfried Sassoon, and Rudyard Kipling.
Owen, Rosenberg and Sorley were killed in action and
are commemorated by the CWGC.
Find out more about them in the
CWGC book 'Poets of the Great War.'
Nearly 50 at the start of the First World War, Kipling
himself did not fight but his son John was killed in
1915, at the Battle of Loos. He was only 18. Kipling's
lament for his dead son can be found in 'The Torn
son was killed laughing at some jest. I would
I knew what it was, And it might serve me when
jests are few.'
The Silver
'The Silver Tassie' is an opera created from
the play of the same name by Irish writer Sean O'Casey.
Young Harry Heegan, just before returning to fight on
the Western Front in 1915, wins a football cup (The
Silver Tassie) and the adoration of his girlfriend.
In France he is seriously wounded, which leaves him
paralysed below the waist. Back home, his girlfriend
takes up with his best friend instead and Harry's joy
and optimism is replaced by bitterness and despair.
You may like to compare the story of Harry Heegan
with that of the protagonist in the poem 'Disabled'
by Wilfred Owen. Both are healthy, sporting young men
whose war injuries leave them crippled, not only in
body, but also socially, and in spirit.
Your Turn!

It's one thing to intentionally speak in oxymoronics for the sake of humor or irony, but some people speak Oxymoronese as though it's an actual language.
This language, as an example, conflates "public" with "private but open to the public" and is inadequate in distinguishing between such concepts as "coercive" and "volitional."
Examples of Oxymoronese occurred repeatedly in a recent Associated Press article about arguments over giving public funds to private schools.
The first Oxymoronese concept in the article pops up in the phrase "federal free or reduced-price school lunch program."
Logically, this is classic TANSTAAFL – There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch: If it's federally funded it ain't free. Technically, of course, nothing is free since someone somewhere somehow pays for everything that everyone has.
The North Carolina School Boards Association insists that the state constitution specifies that "taxpayer funding for schools should be used exclusively for running 'a uniform system of free public schools.'"
"Free public schools?"
While actual oxymoronic phrases have become commonplace – "jumbo shrimp," "bittersweet" – such seriously-uttered but impossibly contradictory Oxymoronese phrases as "free public schools" are as irrational as "unfeeling emotions," "voluntary tax" and "coercive libertarianism."
In the rational world anything paid for by tax money is "public," including anything claiming to be "private" while accepting tax money. Free is free, public is public, coercion is coercion, libertarian is libertarian.
The article further points out that "private schools" that accept tax money should be required to "give parents an annual written explanation of a student's progress, including scores on standardized achievement tests."
But this would simply turn private schools into de facto public schools, an idea obviously incomprehensible to native speakers of Oxymoronese.
Even the otherwise laudably libertarian Institute for Justice gets it wrong.
They represent parents who want to use tax-based grant money to send their sons to the private Christian Faith Center Academy.
The mother is quoted as saying, "We are also taxpayers and we would like to have a choice as to where our tax money goes."
This is like saying, "If a street thug sticks a gun in my ribs and takes my money I have a right to tell him how he can spend my money."
A victim with a "choice" is still a victim.
Politicians, of course, cynically use Oxymoronese to cover their blatant lies. See, for example, "USA PATRIOT Act" and "Affordable Care Act."

Similar Inks: Herbin Orange Indien and Diamine Blaze Orange
I always found J. Herbin's Orange Indien to be more of a "rusty" orange than a bright Halloween orange, (think Diamine's "Pumpkin") and side by side, it seems to be quite similar to Diamine's Blaze Orange. I'm not suggesting that they will function the same in a fountain or dip pen, just that happen to look alike on these swatches.

Crosby out indefinitely with broken jaw
PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Penguins say Sidney Crosby has a broken jaw and is out indefinitely after being hit in the mouth with a puck in a win against the New York Islanders.
The Penguins said on the team website Sunday that Crosby had surgery Saturday night, and there will be an update on his status later in the week.
Crosby, the NHL's leading scorer, was struck in the face with a puck in the first period of the Penguins' 2-0 win on Saturday. The team said Crosby also had "major dental work" and will have more work done later in the week.
The Penguins have won 15 straight games, and next play Buffalo on Tuesday.

Heart Health Center
Three Heart-Healthy Makeovers
A Young Father Is Surprised by Heart Disease continued...
"One of the things I've talked about with my doctor is my age," says Haverly. "We both think the best thing is that we've caught this at a young age, and I have a lot of time to do something about it. It's a big plus in my corner."
Heart-healthy goals
While Haverly's on the right path to heart health, there's even more he can do. Kathleen Zelman, director of nutrition for WebMD, offers these tips:
Drink moderately. Limiting alcohol to two drinks a day for men (one for women) can help increase his HDL or "good cholesterol."
Halt the salt. Haverly should watch his sodium intake to help control blood pressure. Many people think sodium comes from table salt, but most of us get it from processed foods, canned soups, lunch meat, and more.
Watch your weight. Haverly's on the right track, and he should keep up the good work -- losing as little as 5% to 10% of your body weight can reduce your risk of heart disease.
Control the portions. It's the secret to weight loss success. He should limit high-calorie foods and be liberal with vegetables that fill him up but won't fill him out.
A Graduate Student Takes Action Against Heart Disease
Vernita Morgan, 40, is an aspiring PhD candidate at the University of Iowa, studying for a degree in education measurement and statistics. When she "grows up," she wants to help people better understand the issues around obesity, which can raise LDL, the "bad" cholesterol, and triglyceride levels, lower HDL "good" cholesterol numbers, increase a person's blood pressure levels, and in some cases lead to diabetes. In people who are obese, heart disease is a major threat.
For Morgan, heart disease is something that hits close to home: Three of her four grandparents died of either heart attacks or strokes, and her father has struggled with high blood pressure throughout his lifetime.
Only a few years ago, Morgan herself had a brush with heart disease and struggled with her weight. She knew she had to turn her own health around if she was going to live long enough to help others improve their health.

There is no denying that the Moto X has been one of the most hyped up smartphones, not only of the year, but in the mobile industry's history. Now that it has been released, you'd think that all the commotion is over, but this smartphone's story has not yet reached its conclusion.
We've known for quite some time, that the Moto X will only be the first in an entire line-up of devices, line-up not necessarily limited to smartphones (yes, rumor has it that Motorola also has a smart-watch in the pipeline). Even more, Motorola's CEO (Dennis Woodside), has disclosed not too long ago that a cheaper Moto X version, aimed for the prepaid and developing markets, is also in the works.
Well, we might have stumbled on this cheap Moto X's first public appearance. Take a look at the picture below and join us after the break.
According to the source of the picture, the cheaper version of Moto X will come with interchangeable back panels.
Unfortunately, no new info about this version of the Moto X has surfaced so far, but it's reasonable to expect a much less powerful device (not that the original is a powerhouse).
As far as the price tag goes, Dennis Woodside has previously hinted that it will be around $200: "The experience of devices you can get for less than $200 is subpar right now," Woodside said. "We want everyone to have access to affordable smartphones."
We'll keep digging for info, but in the meantime let us know if you'd be interested in a cheaper and less powerful Moto X, with interchangeable back shells.

let us consider the two-dimensional configuration shown in Fig. 3.1a. The lengths of the arrows represent the magnitude of φ, while their directions indicate the orientation in the $φ_1 -φ_2$ plane. Regardless of the behavior of the fields in the interior region, it is clear that the fields cannot be continuously deformed to a vacuum solution, such as that shown in Fig. 3.1b.
How can I get the idea of vortex from the above statement?

NEW YORK -- Zvi Gotheiner's
new "Territories," seen February 26 at the Duke as part of the 92nd
Street Y Harkness Dance Project, is physically and intellectually
inspiring. From the moment the audience entered the theater, Gotheiner
and his Zvidance performers dropped clues that the evening would
offer different ways of looking at borders and territories. The
stage seemed wide-open and exposed, revealing the dancers, dressed
in black rehearsal clothes, 'warming up' and measuring parts of
their bodies and of the stage with a tape measure while we found
our seats. One performer, Eric Hoisington, walked up to a spotlight
and measured the length of the circle illuminating him, continuing
to measure as he retreated and the spot's dimensions changed.
In order to explore
multiple ideas of 'Territories,' Gotheiner found various ways of
measuring bodily and intellectual difference. In physical micro
form he experimented with setting borders and measuring distances
with the bodies of the performers. He played with the idea of how
a body creates a closed form and what is inside gets locked into
it. When he used the body parts to measure distances between different
bodies Gotheiner's choices were creative. He wasn't limited by just
hands. In one section a female and a male dancer were standing apart.
As she got closer to him, she used her neck as a measuring tool
of the distance between them. She kept replacing her neck on the
floor to the ending point of her last placement until she reached
him. In macro form the dancers explored evaluating distance in space.
Gotheiner verbally amplified
his physical comment on closed areas within a society when an Asian
performer recounted meeting a man who tried to insult her by repeatedly
taunting her with "ching-ching." Modes of communication like this
can also create closed areas, the choreographer seemed to be saying.
The reoccurring idea
of invasion and subjugation was introduced by Todd Allen and Jimmy
Everett putting their hands on Ying Ying Shiau's head and directing
her movements in place while her eyes were closed. The men's apparent
power over her was so strong that even when Shiau took few steps
away from them she could only stay by herself for a matter of seconds
before falling back into their hands. As she finally escaped their
control and was able to stand on her own, she opened her eyes. This
powerful imagery foreshadowed Gotheiner's conclusion.
The piece balanced individual
perspectives against collaged points of view, with Naoko Nagata's
costumes highlighting the individuality. Other sections, in which
all the dancers executed the same movement but with distinct personal
inflections, neatly mirrored New York City, the differences respected
and appreciated.
Differences of another
sort were addressed when Allen and Hoisington took the stage adorned
like Greek and Egyptian sculptures. A third dancer explained the
differences between these forms before the two began a duet which
evoked the dramatic physicality of Rodin's sculptures.
Mark London's lighting
was subtle and strong, supporting the metaphors created in the piece
with linear and separated shapes reflected on the floor and the
backdrop. Dancers sometimes used these shapes as their borders.
Their spatial struggle with crossing and staying in and out of these
margins was also reflected in their individual movements.
Throughout the work,
pointed fingers became physical metaphors for finding the borders
between limits. As the fingers physically pointed at each other,
metaphorically they were pointing at different perspectives on personal,
cultural, sexual, religious and emotional territories. The piece
concluded with a dancer outlining the simplest territory of the
self inside the form of the body. She closed her eyes and pointed
at her own eyes with her pointed fingers.

Pregame will be posted a few hours before each game this baseball season. About an hour before first pitch, lineups will be added to the bottom of this post. Return after the game for our Postgame blog with video.
General Info
- What: LSU (14-2) vs. Nicholls State (8-8)
- When: 6:30 p.m. Tuesday
- Where: Alex Box
- Starting pitchers: LSU Jr. RHP Brady Domangue (1-0, 6.35 ERA, 5.2 IP, 4 BB, 2 SO), NSU Jr. LHP Mike Hanchar (0-0, 0.00 ERA, 8.0 IP, 5 BB 8 SO)
- In-game updates on Twitter: @DellengerAdv
- On deck: vs. Southern, 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Alex Box
- In the hole: at Vanderbilt, 6:30 p.m. Friday, Hawkins Field
- Links to know: Bouman beats out Glenn for Saturday weekend role; Domangue gets nod, right field infield and catcher rotation
What's At Stake
- The Tigers are riding high. They won five games in five days and got their first three-game series sweep. Three days before SEC play starts at Vandy, a loss in the midweek to a low-level opponent would bust what is a confidence-brewing bubble.
What To Watch
- Domangue's day: Domangue gets his second start as LSU continues the process of turning the former LSU-Eunice star from reliever to starter. He seemed to have put aside his struggles from the first three weeks of the season as a reliever. He had a three-inning start last week against Sacred Heart that Mainieri liked.
- Stevenson's streak: Andrew Stevenson has gotten a hit in 14 straight games. The guy has a .432 average a year after batting .193. How long can this hot streak of his continue?
- Middle relievers: With Domangue on the mound, Mainieri will likely go to his bullpen earlier than normal. Middle relief guys like Nate Fury, Hunter Devall, Zac Person and Alden Cartwright get a chance to shine days before the big series at Vandy.
Know Your Opponent
- Nicholls was picked to finish eighth in the Southland Conference this season. In two starts (18 innings), Hanchar has allowed just one hit, walked five and struck out eight.

The fastest crews in the nation are in New Jersey to compete for a national title at the 110th annual Intercollegiate Rowing Association Championships, a three-day event held on the Cooper River in Cherry Hill, N.J.
The Husky program is searching for its 15th National Championship, and is looking to repeat for the first time since back-to-back wins in 1940 and 1941. For the Huskies to accomplish the rare feat, they'll need to be at their best over the course of three days against 17 other crews. Conditions on the Cooper River are often hot and humid this time of year, meaning the test will be as much mental as it is physical.
Teams at the IRAs race five boats: Varsity Eight, Second Varsity Eight, Freshmen Eight, Varsity Four and Open Four (which must include one freshman rower). The National Champion is determined by the fastest boat in the Varsity Eight Grand Final.
Joining the Huskies at the IRA Championships will be California, Stanford, Brown, Harvard, Wisconsin, Princeton, Navy, Syracuse, Boston, Yale, Northeastern, George Washington, Gonzaga, Drexel, Cornell, Pennsylvania and Dartmouth. In order to compete at the IRAs, crews must either qualify (which the Huskies did by winning the Pac-12 Conference), or be selected as an at-large. Teams must also hold "varsity status" at their respective institutions.
The Huskies are also seeking their sixth straight Ten Eyck Trophy, which is given to the program that accumulates the most overall points at the IRAs. Last year, Washington became the first school to win five in a row.
Following The Races
Once again, the IRAs will be streamed in their entirety. Live video is available here: http://client.stretchinternet.com/client/cs.portal. Up-to-the-minute results will be available on the team's official Twitter feed (@UWHuskyCrew), followed by a recap on GoHuskies.com.
Looking Back To Last Year's Title
Washington came to the Cooper River as the No. 1 crew in the nation in 2011, and imposed its will right away in the heats by winning four of the five categories. The Huskies then advanced all boats to the finals, but a second-place finish in the semifinals (the only time last season the V8 was not first in a 2,000-meter race) had many wondering if the Grand Finals would be anybody's race. The final day turned out to be a coronation for the Huskies, as the team won four races, including their 14th National title after a dominating effort by the varsity eight. The Husky flagship boat broke away from the pack thanks to a powerful surge 750 meters into the race. Once in the lead, the Huskies would not look back, winning the Grand Final by open water.
On The Line: The Varsity Challenge Cup
The varsity eight competes for the Varsity Challenge Cup, which ultimately determines the National Champions. The silver trophy was first presented in 1898. Washington has won the Cup 14 times, dating back to 1923. The second varsity competes for the Kennedy Challenge Cup, originally presented in 1899. The Huskies claimed that award in 2004, 2005 and 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. The freshmen race for the Steward's Cup, first awarded in 1900. Washington won the 2006 freshmen eight championship, and then again in 2009 and 2010. UW completed a sweep of the three premier eights races in 1950, 1997, and then again in 2009.
Since 2006, the Varsity Challenge Cup has been dominated by West Coast schools, with either Cal or Washington winning the national title, save for Wisconsin in 2008. An East Coast school has not won the Varsity Challenge Cup since Harvard won three in a row from 2003-05.
Huskies Coaching Staff
Michael Callahan is in his fifth year as steward of the Husky men's crew program. The UW alum has won the Ten Eyck Trophy in each of his five seasons as head coach, in addition to two National Championships. In 2011, Washington won all but one IRA race to capture its 14th National Championship, and the third in five years for the program. Prior to taking over the men's coaching position, Callahan served for three seasons as the Huskies freshmen coach. A 1996 graduate of the University of Washington, Callahan has also been an active member on the international level, where he's competed and coached. Luke McGee handles the coaching duties for the freshmen. Now in his fifth season at UW, McGee has led the Grunties (as freshmen are known in Husky parlance) to two IRA Gold Medals and two Silver Medals.
IRA History
The Intercollegiate Rowing Association Regatta is the oldest collegiate crew championship in the country, and remains the premier event for national rowing honors for college men.
The first IRA Regatta, on June 24, 1895, was a four-miler between Columbia, the winner, Cornell and Pennsylvania. In 1923, Washington, coached by Rusty Callow, became the first Western school to win the IRA's featured varsity eight competition, followed by another victory in 1924 and then again in 1926. When Callow left Seattle to coach at Penn, he was succeeded by his assistant Al Ulbrickson, who continued the Huskies' winning ways with six IRA varsity eight titles in 1936, 1937, 1940, 1941, 1948 and 1950. His freshman, second varsity and varsity crews "swept the river" in 1936, 1937, 1948 and 1950. Bob Ernst ended a 20-year coaching run in 2007 with a national championship. Ernst, who now coaches the UW women, led his team to a modern-day sweep in 1997, when UW crews won all three races on the Cooper River.
Cooper River
The Lake Mercer course is located outside of Princeton, N.J. in West Mercer Township. The races will be the standard sprint distance of 2,000 meters.
Proving Their Speed
All season long, the Huskies have established themselves as the nation's most imposing crew. Washington has yet to lose in a 2,000-meter sprint this season, and all victories have come by open water, meaning the Huskies boat was not in contact with their opposition. Along the way, the Huskies have swept races against No. 2 Brown, No. 4 Cal and No. 9 Stanford. The Huskies then picked up wins at the Windermere Cup before taking all four races at the Pac-12 Championships.
Boat-By-Boat Preview
> Varsity Eight - Ranked No. 1 ... Undefeated entering IRA for fifth time in six seasons ... Pac-12 Champion ... UW's last loss came in the semifinals of the 2011 IRA Championships ... Huskies seek their 15th IRA title ... UW varsity lineup features two seniors, six juniors and one sophomore.
> Second Varsity Eight - Defending IRA champion ... Undefeated this season, culminating in a 2012 Pac-10 Championship ...The Husky 2V8 has won gold medals in the last five IRA Championships.
> Freshmen Eight - Seeking third IRA Gold Medal in the last four years under Coach McGee ... defending Pac-12 Champions ... picked up wins this season against Brown, California and Stanford.
> Varsity Four - Undefeated this season ... looking to capture third straight IRA title.
> Open Four - Coming off a gold medal finish at the 2010 IRA Championships ... has not raced this season.
IRA Racing Format
Competition at the IRA Regatta consists of heats, repechage (second chance races), semifinals and finals. In the varsity eight heat, the two fastest crews advance to the semis. This is the same format with the freshmen eight and the varsity four. In the second varsity eight and the open eight, the top three advance. The rest are relegated to the repechage race, where the top three boats will gain entry back into the semifinals. The crews outside the top three will race in the Third Final. In the semis, the top three crews advance to the six-boat Grand Final. The remaining crews will race in the Petite Final.

Fans of "The Originals" need to get ready for more action in the French Quarter. Klaus and Elijah are living together in the family home, and things are not well between them at all. The tension between the brothers is obvious once again. On April 10, The CW Network YouTube page shared a new sneak peek featuring Joseph Morgan and Daniel Gillies. The clip is from "The Originals" episode 1x18 titled "The Big Uneasy." Fans just need to watch the start of the clip to know that all is not well in New Orleans.
The clip begins with Elijah supervising work being done on the home. Klaus enters the scene, and he is not happy about all the noise. Elijah thinks the home needs repair, and Genevieve agrees with him. Klaus warns his brother that her agreement means she wants something. He is right. She wants the witches to be able to celebrate feast days. This was banned by Marcel while he had control over the city. The clip ends before Elijah's answer is revealed.
Elijah has been dealing with a lot this season. He was held captive with a dagger in his chest for a time. He had his ex return after 200 years, and his little sister has run off to live her life. All top of all this is the romantic tension between him and Hayley. Fans have been on the edge of their seat watching Hayley and Elijah dance around a relationship all season long. It is complicated though. She is carrying Klaus' baby after all. Will fans ever see the pair stop dancing around each other and hook up?
Phoebe Tonkin teased to TV Guide that the pair will continue this dance. Hayley has to protect herself, and the thought of being caught between the two brothers 'is not ideal' for her. She has a lot more to keep her busy too. The werewolf curse is off, and she has been destined to marry one of them. That is another complicated relationship though. Fans need to keep tuning in to find out what happens next. "The Originals" will return to CW on Tuesday night.

Castlepoint Tanning, a UK Company
Friday, June 24, 2016
Special offer for a limited time- the most powerful & efficient Spray Tanning Extractor fan unit £220.00 inclusive of vat and shipping, for clearing Maximum spray tan overspray mist, for HVLP turbine and Airbrush equipment, salon or mobile... the UK's Number 1 supplier. Ireland buyers, please select from the drop-down box.
You are investing in your business; you will benefit checking all extraction equipment for salon and mobile use! An extractor fan/ unit removes and filters overspray generated in the application of spray tanning solutions. If you dont use an extractor unit, its likely you and your client will be inhaling some of that fine mist, and itll settle on walls and furniture. Thats unhealthy and unclean. Fail to use one and you expose yourself to risk of cleaning bills, insurance claims and possibly worse if your client suffers asthma or has other breathing-related or eye-related problems. Even salon owners without any known respiratory problems have been known to suffer tightness of breath when spraying in rooms with poor ventilation.
All components in Spray Tanning solutions are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for skin application only- the FDA have not approved its safety- for inhaling!
This Spray Tanning Extractor Unit can be used with the portable tent or in the salon, its used by the spray Tanning Technician. This extractor is a little monster and the first compact spray tanning extractor to be made in the UK with the Exclusive Dual Density washable filter, clearing over 840 cubic meters (m³) per hour of overspray- with the filter fitted!!!
PLEASE DO YOUR STUDY, WHEN YOU INVEST IN AN EXTRACTOR UNIT... as many are claiming the wrong m³ of overspray cleared in 1 hour. Some claim ridiculous amounts of overspray cleared in one hour- you would be deafened if this amount of m³ was correct (very misleading).
Some are giving you the m³ cleared, before the filter is fitted in the extractor unit... this reading is also misleading as the m³ clearance drops a considerable amount once the filter is fitted!
If Extractors state "Airflow" m³ measurements (or delivers); without quoting assembled and filter fitted- it most likely means its the motor movement of air before its assembled into the unit- Airflow measurements can be misleading and you need to know the m³ clearance when assembled, with the filter fitted. The m³ (cubic meters per hour of overspray clearance) will drop a considerable amount once fitted into a unit and the filter added. All suppliers of Extractor fans/ units should be willing to give you the correct m³ clearance measurements.
As stated above our Extractor motor has the airflow clearance of 900 m³ per hour, but when we fit our motor into its casing and add our Exclusive thick dual density filter- this clearance drops to 840 m³ an hour... we will not mislead you in thinking our extractor clears nearly 900 m³ per hour!!!
A high-end extractor unit specification:
* 100-watt motor, driving a backward curved fan for power and efficiency
* Over 840 cubic metres of air filtered an hour With the filter fitted, this is equal to filtering a large double car garage- 10 times over per hour
* Thermal protection with built-in cut-out
* Ingress protection to IP44 standards
* All steel construction weighing only 6.25kg
* Dimensions: 30H x 31W x 14D excluding handle and knobs
* Power coated for long life in black (oven baked)
* Dual Density washable filter (Exclusive)
* Two year return to base warranty
* Does NOT need any piping/ ducting to an outside air source
* CE-approved
* 220-240 volts 100 watts
* Two-metre power cord
* Conforms to the safety test of small childs finger
* Expected Motor Life: 40,000 hours.
Example: if you run this extractor unit 5 days a week- 8 hours a day (9am-5pm), this can be equivalent to nearly 20 years! The manufacturer has customers that purchased machines from them 20 years ago and are still running perfectly. Keep your filter clean and dry every day its used.
* Electricity Consumption: Based on an average of 10p per Kilo-watt hour and this extractor being 100 watts- this extractor per hour will use just 1p in electric!!!
* Made in England to high standards with over 20 years experience
We ship all over the world- please contact us for your Location Voltage and postal costs.
See more Information on useful knowledge...
All Ireland customers, please use the drop-down box to purchase and then; add to order, as the extra shipping cost has been added to All Ireland locations (Northern and Southern).

Player of the Day: Wilf Rostron
Local winger in the spotlight.
Wilf Rostron made 87 appearances for Sunderland between 1977 and 1980 after returning to his local club having initially moved to Arsenal from Wearside as a youngster.
A forward-thinking winger, Rostron's eye for goal was a prominent feature during his three years on Wearside.
After making his Sunderland debut in a 3-0 defeat at Hull City, Rostron went on to make 37 appearances in his debut campaign, scoring six goals.
Particular highlights for the local lad included his match-winning double in a 2-1 success at Mansfield Town as well as strikes in wins over Sheffield United and Notts County.
Rostron notched 11 goals in 39 appearances over the course of the 1978-79 campaign, including a hat-trick against Sheffield United to send the Black Cats top of Division Two with only two games remaining in the season.
However, a home defeat to Cardiff City would mean that Billy Elliott's side would lose out on promotion.
Wilf had earlier scored in wins over Burnley and Oldham Athletic whilst he also earned Sunderland a point with a double in a 3-3 draw at West Ham United.
Rostron made 13 appearances at the start of the 1979-80 season under new boss Ken Knighton and he scored in a 2-2 home draw with Newcastle United in the League Cup.
However, he left for Watford in October 1979 and would go on to spend ten years at Vicarage Road – winning the Hornets' Player of the Year award in 1983 and 1984.
Spells with both steel city clubs, Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday, followed before he moved to Brentford where he would finish his playing career in 1991.

Fruit season is here, and with it the opportunities to have berries, stone fruit, and strawberries picked ripe. Farmstands are all over as soon as one gets out to the countryside--there are a few nice ones along the 1 south of Half Moon Bay--and quite a few "you-pick" farms within reasonable driving distance, as close as Pescadero and as far away as Healdsburg.
Away from Brentwood--often hot, dusty, and too close to the real Central Valley agricultural worker experience to be pleasant--it's difficult to go wrong. Watsonville is a good choice, since several farms are open and there's so much else to do in that area: hiking up in the redwoods, going to the beach, visiting the Monterey Bay Aquarium, kayaking out among the otters and sea lions in Elkhorn Slough, or even continuing on to Big Sur.
Among the fruit-picking options is Gizdich Ranch. With a gift and antique shop, a deli, and a pie counter, it verges on being a Casa de Fruta-style tourist trap, but doesn't cross the line. It's a farm with a little extra for visitors, not a farm theme park. A slice of pie costs about as much as at a diner on the peninsula, and the you-pick fruit prices are competitive.
At present, strawberry and olallieberry (a kind of hybrid blackberry similar to a boysenberry) fields are open for picking. Last weekend, even as late as Sunday afternoon, there was plenty of ripe fruit on the plants and even with nearly-full parking areas enough space for there to be peace and quiet out between rows of trellised olallieberries.
Gizdich Ranch is located at 55 Peckham Road, just west of Watsonville. Fruit availability, hours, and other information may be found on their website. For almost complete listings of you-pick farms and farmstands in the area, visit www.pickyourown.org.

Bethune-Cookman Men Claim PGA Minority National Title
Courtesy: BCUathletics.com
Release: 05/12/2013
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. – The Bethune-Cookman men's golf team erased a four-stroke deficit on Sunday afternoon to claim a one shot victory over Texas-Pan American at the 27th Annual PGA National Minority Golf Championships presented by Brown Capital Management at The PGA Club in Port St. Lucie, Fla. The event took place on the Wanamaker Course.
The Wildcats led by 10 strokes on Friday, before trailing by four strokes on Saturday. That set the stage for a comeback for the Bethune-Cookman men's golf team on Sunday. The Wildcats used great play from Ivybridge, England natives Ryan Fricker and Leon Fricker to help B-CU lay claim to the team title.
For B-CU, the team title is the first of its kind for the Maroon and Gold since 2011 when they were led by Matthew McKnight, who also laid claim to the individual title as a freshman.
With the women winning the title in playoff fashion on their side of the tournament, the men's victory gave B-CU a sweep of the team trophies under head coach Loritz "Scooter" Clark, now finishing his third year at the helm in Daytona Beach.
"It was a long and a very stressful day out there," said Clark after the women's trophy presentation. "But both teams really grinded and I am just thrilled to take home both titles in this incredible tournament. It is really satisfying."
Alabama State finished third on the men's side, 12 strokes behind Bethune-Cookman. The Wildcats finished the 54-hole tournament with a team score of 883.
Ryan Fricker carded a final round score of one-under par 71 to end the weekend firing a one-under 215. The under-par tournament is the fifth of its kind on the campaign for the freshman, and gives him much-needed momentum heading into next week's NCAA Regional in Tallahassee, Fla., where he will compete as an individual.
"We really didn't play well yesterday and almost let the Championship slip away," stated Fricker. "I was happy to help the team today and it felt good to win this championship in my first appearance. It was really cool."
Kevin Kirakossian, a senior on the UTPA squad, claimed medalist honors for the tournament.
The rest of the Bethune-Cookman scoring was aided by the entire team.
Leon Fricker, younger brother of Ryan and a fellow freshman fired a final round even-par 72, finishing the weekend with a five-over par 221 score. Junior Matthew McKnight of Lisburn, Northern Ireland, scored a final round four-over par 76 to end his 54-hole weekend with an eight-over par 224 scorecard.
Junior Emmanuel Petrich of Grand Blanc, Mich., finished his final round carding a four-over par 76, to end the weekend scoring a total 225. Senior Alex Clapp of Somerset, England finished with a total 231 after firing a final round of three-over par 75 on Sunday. For Clapp, the event marks the final tournament for the Englishman, as he rounds out his career with the Maroon and Gold as the lone senior on this year's squad.
In the men's independent division, JaMichael Jones, a junior from Chicago, finished out his 54-hole tournament tied in fifth place after scoring a 228 total. He ended Sunday's final round at one-over par (73), tied alongside Alden Mark Davis of Southeastern in the final standings.
The PGA Minority Championship was the final team event for the Wildcats in 2012-13. Bethune-Cookman finished the year winning four tournaments, including the FAMU Spring Invitational, MEAC Showcase and SSU Tiger Fall Invitational.
The PGA Minority Collegiate Golf Championship presented by Brown Capital Management, which is celebrating its 27th edition this year, originated in November 1986 following the Jackson State University Golf Tournament, and has elevated golf in minority colleges and universities by providing opportunities to more players to compete in a national championship.
In 2006, The PGA of America was granted complete ownership and management of the championship by the National Minority Collegiate Golf Scholarship Fund.

Awakening with Brahma Kumaris with BK Shivani
Hosted by Kanu Priya - Aastha channel
Happiness Index
We seek it here, we seek it there, every human being seeks happiness everywhere. The search for happiness consumes our lives, though we may not be aware that happiness is what we seek. Sadly many of us continually postpone our happiness - indefinitely. lt's not that we consciously set out to do so, but we keep convincing
ourselves, "Someday l'll be happy". We tell ourselves we'Il be happy when our bills are paid, when we get out of school, get our first job, when we have a nicer car, a better house. The truth is there is no better time to be happy than right now. lf not now, when?
Happiness is our creation and we have the power when and how to create it. In this series we explore the journey to overcome expectations and desires; forget the past, not depend on the future, live in the present; not ask others for happiness, instead create it and share it with them.
Happiness is not a destination, it is a journey. Happiness is not tomorrow, it is now. Happiness is not a dependency, it is a decision.
The Brahma Kumaris
The Brahma Kumaris teaches Rajyoga as a way of experiencing peace of mind and a positive approach to life. The organisation provides opportunities to people from all religious and cultural backgrounds to explore their own spirituality and learn skills of reflection and meditation derived from Rajyoga, which will help develop
inner calm, clearthinking and personal well-being.

Panthers sign Gudbranson
By Harvey Fialkov
Sun Sentinel
CORAL SPRINGS After 13 months of protracted contract negotiatons the Panthers announced Friday that they signed defenseman Erik Gudbranson, last year's overall No. 3 draft pick, to a three-year entry level contract.
If Gudbranson plays 10 NHL games this season he will make a base salary of $900,000 with the potential to earn another $2.3 million including performance bonuses. It could be worth $9.6 million over three years. If he is sent back to juniors, he would still be allowed to keep his $90,000 signing bonus, but the contract would slide to next year.
"I'm introducing you to our newest Florida Panther, Erik Gudbranson,'' Panthers GM Dale Tallon said inside a video room in Saveology.com Iceplex following the conclusion of the team's three-day development camp. "Official, official, official, signed on the dotted line. We're really proud, obviously, he's our first pick of the new regime; it's been a great pick, he's a great kid and he represents all what we're all about here as far as character and skill and passion and all the intangibles that make Erik a Florida Panther.''
The 6-foot-4, 215-pound Gudbranson, 19, had 12 goals and 34 points in 44 games with 105 penalty minutes last year for the Kingston Frontenacs of the OHL.
"I always just went to the rink to play hockey. We have agents to deal with stuff like that. I left it up to them to deal with the business side,'' Gudbranson said. "It's a big achievement but a little step. It's a big team, the NHL, the toughest league to make in the world, and obviously, I'm going to work my tail off to be here [this season] and make a difference on the team.''
Gudbranson will join Team Canada at their development camp in August and then return to South Florida to participate in the rookie camp on Sept. 9 before training camp begins a week later in an effort to make the final 23-man roster.
"The workouts start back up on Monday. I've been going six days a week ever since I've been out of Kingston,'' he said. "I'm going to make sure I'll be in the best shape possible, have a good camp with the national team out in Edmonton, come back here stronger and faster.
"It feels a lot nicer coming to the rink and just have to worry about playing hockey. … My dream's still there. I'm going to make sure I'm going to be here this year.''
The Panthers brought in veteran All-Star defensemen Brian Campbell and, especially, Ed Jovanovski to mentor Gudbranson, who idolizes JovoCop. Gudbranson will be competing with Mike Weaver, Dmitry Kulikov, Jason Garrison and Keaton Ellerby for one of the seven defensemen spots.
"It's on your conscious a little bit but it never bothered me, never got in my head or fazed me from playing my game or being the person I am,'' he said of the negotiations. "I stayed positive throughout the process and it ended in a nice deal.
"I'm going to come here and be as confident as possible. I'm going to be very respectful toward the vets and whatnot, but at the same time, I'm going to try to be the best defenseman out there, and show everybody I can make this team, that I could play in this league, and not only just play, but make a difference.''

The winds of West Texas are helping one family cut its energy bill.
A small wind turbine stands in Dottie and Tony Neal's back yard 33 feet in the air, with blades about 12 feet in diameter.
The Bovina couple hope it will cut their electric bills in half.
Their's is the first home in West Texas to install this brand of wind turbine, a Skystream 3.7 made by Flagstaff, Ariz.,-based Southwest Windpower. It was installed Jan. 17.
"It's less intrusive than a billboard," Tony Neal said. "Certainly not as ugly as a TV antenna sticking up in the air. Actually, it looks pretty cool."
This brand of turbine was designed for rural residents who live on at least a half acre of land, said Andy Kruse, senior vice president of business development and co-founder of Southwest Windpower.
The turbine produces no waste or greenhouse gases.
Any additional energy produced that is not used is sent back to the energy supplier, and the Neals are credited for it. That usually happens at night, when the house and its occupants are using less power.
During the day, the energy created is used in the home, said Ken Starcher, director of the alternative energy institute at West Texas A&M University.
The Neals spent $9,000 to buy and install the turbine, Tony Neal said. Prices vary depending on the type of soil the turbine is on, the distance from the house and the height of the turbine.
He expects it to produce between 600 and 800 kilowatt hours a month. His house averaged 1,556 kilowatt hours a month last year.
The amount of energy the turbine produces is based on the amount of wind in the area.
"It's all relative to where you live," Kruse said. "But the whole Panhandle is very windy."
Starcher said it may take some time before the Neals learn exactly how good of an investment they made, but it's hard for it to be a bad one when the turbine can last as long as 20 years.
The Neals' turbine sits about 250 feet from their house. The wind turns the blades on the turbine and generates an electric current.
An electric cable connects the turbine and the house. There are no batteries or special connectors, Kruse said.
The Neals became interested in wind turbines when they saw them being installed near their old home in Palm Springs, Calif., in the 1970s.
Their son, who works in wind energy at the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Bushland, returned from a conference about a year ago and told his parents, "I found the turbine you've been looking for."
The Skystream 3.7 is quiet and very modern looking, Tony said.
He said he wanted the turbine because it's environmentally safe and to take advantage of the wind resources in the area.
"It's a shame not to put it to use," the 33-year resident of Bovina said.
Starcher said the American Solar Energy Society was working on a deal to include wind energy as part of a federal credit with solar energy for people who install turbines like the Neals.
"That will certainly help with their spread across the United States," Starcher said.

Indianapolis (IN) - There are some games that are a tale of two halves and Butler just had one of them.

April Scott
Poplar Bluff, Missouri
"If I were a fruit I would be an extremely poisonous berry, so hopefully no one would eat me because that would be painful. But, if they did eat me at least they would die."
- April Scott
April Scott has made guest appearances on shows such as CSI: Miami, Entourage and The Shield, she has appeared in the Mötley Crüe music video for "If I Die Tomorrow," and has graced the covers of Maxim and Fitness RX magazines. In 2006, she became model No.14 on the game show Deal or No Deal, and she played a young Daisy Duke in the 2007 prequel The Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning.
Perhaps her greatest accomplishment is her plethora of beauty pageant crowns, which she won mainly during her teens in the Midwest. April Scott has picked up about 85 pageant titles, including Miss Soybean, Miss Sunflower and Miss Sweet Pea, although her most prized title is that of Miss Missouri Peach Queen, which she won before a hometown crowd that included her family and friends as her cheering section. She's since moved on to grace the covers of Maxim, Fitness Rx, Import Tuner, and Best Body magazines, she has become the face of Merle Norman Cosmetics, and made it onto Maxim's Top 100 Girls to Watch for 2006.
April Scott BiographyApril Scott was born on January 29, 1979, in Poplar Bluff, Missouri, and grew up on a 20-acre farm in a rural part of the Midwestern state. She began entering beauty pageants in her teens, and won the Miss Missouri Peach Queen, her hometown pageant, at the age of 16. Following graduation from high school, she enrolled at a private Christian college in her home state. In 2001, she earned her degree as a theater studies major with a minor in rhetoric.
april scott moves to l.a.April could hardly wait to leave her small, sleepy town for the bright lights and excitement of a big city. Shortly after graduating college, she packed her bags and drove to Los Angeles to pursue a career as an actress, despite having no contacts in the city and little money to get by.
Within a week of her arrival in the City of Angels, April found a talent agent who encouraged her to pursue modeling in addition to acting. She landed bookings on modeling shoots from the get-go, and also managed to receive a Screen Actors Guild card within a couple of months of her move to Southern California.
april scott on the shield By 2003, April Scott began making appearances on a number of television series, including an episode of The Shield with Glenn Close, as cohost of Ripley's Believe It or Not! on TBS, and the 2004 season premiere of CSI: Miami, in which she was cast as Trish Kimball, a model who ends up getting murdered when a man in a yellow Lamborghini intentionally runs her over. That same year, she landed bit parts on HBO's Entourage, appearing in two different episodes as a model, and as the "girl in the bikini," and she also hosted the extreme sports show The Hook on ESPN2.
april scott as the mötley crüe babeIn 2005, hard-rock fan April Scott appeared in the video for "If I Die Tomorrow" by heavy metal legends Mötley Crüe. She got to do a little stunt work during the shoot when she was harnessed in a device that made her appear to be flying after Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx. She appeared in several episodes of SoapTalk as the runway model during 2005, and turned up on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson as Mandy and as the Vegas Girl.
The modeling side of April Scott's career has grown to include print editorials for magazines such as Glamour, Shape, Best Body, Open Your Eyes, Elle, and In Style, as the new face of Merle Norman Cosmetics, and for the Dreamgirl Lingerie catalog and ad campaign.
