A New fundraising program
In January 2011 Blanket launched a new type of partnership initiative to help raise funds for animal-related non-profit organizations. This program is called 'FundsForever' and is designed to allow companies, retailers and not-for-profits to create an on-going stream of funds for selected animal welfare organizations.
Currently, a portion of money from the sales of our blanket ID tags and associated memberships is passed to our own 'Blanket Fund for Animals'. These funds are distributed to organizations that help sick, injured, abandoned and homeless animals. It's the core of what we do and more than 15% of our profits are passed to this fund. We make a determined effort to make these funds as effective as possible.
Over our last year of operation we have come to realize that our members have a keener understanding of their local animal welfare organizations, their work in the community and their funding needs. While we do try to distribute funds based on our members' addresses, it's become impossible for us to keep up to date with a growing list of charities and ever changing levels of need.
The FundsForever Program
Under this program, any company, retailer or organization can have their own custom-designed blanket ID tag produced. The tags generate a respectable margin for the seller, and in addition the charitable portion of the funds raised from memberships will forever be passed back to their selected non-profit organization.
As an example, Sniff Dog Hotel, (http://www.sniffdoghotel.com) has created their very own blanket ID tag. This fabulous dog resort has chosen the charity 'Fences for Fido',(http://www.fencesforfido.org/) an all-volunteer non-profit organization dedicated to improving the welfare and quality of life for dogs living outdoors, to be the beneficiary for funds raised from sales of this tag and on-going memberships.
We are also proud to have Best Friends Animal Society as a member of this program (http://www.bestfriends.org). We love their work in leading the no-kill movement and we are honored to be able to help.
More Information
If you would like to enquire about joining our FundsForever program, please contact us by email at: firstname.lastname@example.com. We have especially favorable options for non-profit organizations.

A New York woman attempting to catch her fleeing dog was struck and killed by a garbage truck on Wednesday, reports CBS 2.
Jackie Haeflinger, 58, was walking her dog Violet on Wednesday morning when the dog got off its leash and ran into the street as the garbage truck was backing up.
Haeflinger tried to grab the dog from behind the truck. The driver, not realizing she was there, hit and rolled over Haeflinger, crushing her.
Although the other sanitation worker had yelled for the driver to stop, he apparently could not hear her through the noise.
After the horrific accident, police picked up Violet from the sidewalk only a few feet from her owner's body. Eight-year-old Boston Terrier Violet was not harmed, and is currently staying with a neighbor.
Neighbors were upset and saddened by the news. Haeflinger and Violet were well known in the Chelsea neighborhood. Haeflinger could be seen walking her beloved dog every day in the morning and at night.
And her friends knew that Haeflinger would have done anything to save Violet.
One neighbor told cbs 2 "It's heartbreaking knowing that we'll no longer see her face around here."
Haeflinger worked for New York University in its events office.
The Director of Public Affairs at NYU, Philip Lentz, said in a statement "She was a devoted, long-time member of the NYU community whom many of us — myself included — knew well and admired for not only for her hard work and exacting standards but for her commitment to make every NYU event warm, gracious, and memorable for students, families, and faculty. Her family and loved ones are in our prayers. We are all coming to terms with the sudden news. We shall miss her."
Even those who never met Haeflinger can appreciate the strong bond and love she had for her small dog. Sincere condolences go out to the family and friends of Ms. Haeflinger.

For those who were offended by Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" music video shouldn't think of watching "The Wolf of Wall Street, as that is just a blip of the amount of nudity that you will witness in this movie. Granted, the movie isn't about nudity, but it is all about gratuitous behavior when it comes to money, luxury, and thrown in there is a lot of nakedness.
The film, which kept changing its release date, is about East Coast stockbroker Jordan Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio) and is loosely based on his true rags to riches story. He builds his empire by swindling those who are investing and makes it so each deal turns a profit made up of multiple zeroes at the end for him.
Kyle Chandler as a FBI agent on Belfort's trail is dull and lifeless especially compared to DiCaprio's quick-witted charm. Early scenes with Matthew McConaughey as a mentor to Belfort are fantastic, but it really is the performances from DiCaprio and Jonah Hill as his partner-in-crime Donnie Azoff that keeps this three-hour movie steadily moving.
Beauty Margot Robbie as Belfort's wife, Naomi makes quite a splash of her own. She holds a commanding presence even among the amount of testosterone that overcomes this story and film. The story is over-the-top and at times could use an edit or two, but the pace is pretty swift and in three hours it's tough to tell which was more tantalizing, the rise or fall of Jordan Belfort. The film is definitely character driven with the decade of the neon 90s serving as the best accessory you can ask for.
Final words: Entertaining and fun with a new conversation starter to add to your arsenal: "Sell me this pen."

College Hockey:New Hampshire Handles Huskies
Winning Ways Continue For Wildcats
BOSTON — New Hampshire's unbeaten streak, which started November 3 with a 6-3 comeback win versus Northeastern University, continued as UNH beat Northeastern 3-1 Saturday night.
Recording the first three strikes of the game, all even strength, UNH cruised through most of the contest, helped by goalkeeper Kevin Regan, who made 28 saves on the night. UNH remains unbeaten in the month of November.
"Regan played consistent and solid, Northeastern could have gotten back in the game but Regan shut them down," UNH coach Dick Umile said.
The first period started slow as both teams seemed to be working off their share of turkey and stuffing. At 16:00 UNH opened the scoring when Mike Radja took a blistering shot from the point that was deflected by Kevin Kapstad past NU goalie Brad Thiessen. It was Kapstad's first collegiate goal.
UNH piled 13 shots on Thiessen in the first, but Thiessen let up very few rebounds for UNH to take advantage of.
Thiessen said, "All game long they throwing everything at the net, just getting on the wall and whipping it towards the net."
New Hampshire came out fast in the second and a little over a minute in added its second tally of the night.
Brett Hemingway finally got the puck into the net on a third-chance opportunity after Northeastern defender Brian Deeth did his best goalie impression, making a big kick-save, to keep the puck out of the net as Thiessen came sliding over from the far side. But the damage was done after Hemingway found the back of the next on his third try. Jacob Micflikier collected his 15th assist of the year on the play.
UNH continued to pile the shots on, taking a total of 18 in the second, and found paydirt when Thomas Fortney came streaking out of the penalty box and it looked like he hit the back of the net on the breakaway.
The linesmen thought Fortney had scored, and so did Fortney, but the goal light never came on. A conference ensued between the officials before awarding the goal to Fortney. Brad Flaishans got an assist on the play. It was the third even-strength goal for UNH.
Northeastern finally struck on a somewhat fluky goal when captain Mike Morris threw the puck towards the net from the point and it rattled off both posts before ending up in the back of the net. The Northeastern power play was hurt by the loss of senior defensemen Steve Birnstill, who was out with injury.
"[The power play] has been out of whack since Birnstill got hurt; it's not clicking," Northeastern head coach Greg Cronin said.
"[Birnstill] is one of the best defensemen in the league, so not having him on the ice is a tough loss." Thieseen added.
Birnstill is expected to return next weekend.
UNH now has a four-point lead in Hockey East, which Brett Hemingway called "a good start." UNH has now won five straight games and is undefeated in its last eight.
On the night the Northeastern power-play went 1-10 and the New Hampshire power-play was 0-4.
Regan made 28 saves on 29 shots and Thieseen made 38 saves on 41 shots. UNH moves to 9-2-1 (7-1-1 HEA) and Northeastern is now 2-8-2 (0-7-2 HEA).
Next for UNH is a Tuesday tilt with Merrimack at home, and that following weekend Northeastern plays a home and home with Merrimack starting Friday at Matthews Arena.

Yesterday we said good-bye to Plunger and helped him cross over the Rainbow Bridge.
Plunger was 15 and he had been struggling with some health issues for the last few months and the time had come to let him be at peace.
Instead of going into a big long story that makes me cry I thought I would share some of my favorite pictures of Plunger.
He was a little dog compared to Sherman and Leroy but he could certainly hold his own and out run them any day of the week.
He had no fear of their size and had no problem telling them to back off.
Plunger knew the Newfs were gentle giants and would never harm him and he took full advantage of that.
A few times he may of been afraid of being suffocated by one of them, but he always found a magical way out.
Plunger is the first dog that we have lost together as a family. I have lost dogs in my past but this is a first for my husband, the kids and the dogs and my heart hurts for them.
The kids are dealing with it as best as they can.
I made clay pawprints for each of them to keep in remembrance of Plunger and today we will plant some wildflowers in the garden as a memorial and last night we went out for ice cream, courtesy of Plunger.
Sherman and Leroy are dealing with the loss too and have been looking for Plunger every since I left with him yesterday morning. Last night Sherman looked in every room for Plunger and cried, and this morning he went outside and was howling.
Time will heal all wounds and today we will all share in some extra hugs.

I have only lost cats but that hasn't phased me much…just have to give mom extra love and let her cry on me. Snuggle with your Newfs, they will need it and you will as well. Run free Plunger!

I love the pictures you shared. You obviously gave him a wonderful life. He's your family's special angel now.
I know what you mean – our first dog that my husband and I had together was a beagle. It's so hard to lose a family member. Hang in there.
So sorry for your loss. Breaks my heart. Plunger looked like such a sweet heart. Smoosh sends you a slobbery smooch.

I am so very sorry for your loss; yet so very glad you have such sweet memories of him. It was good to see him holding his own with the Newfies. Do you have any item that has his scent on it-let your two smell it-I think it helps and have been told so by many friends. When we lost my heart dog Sadie, our dear old guy Reggie searched and searched for her. It took a few weeks and then he decided it was o.k. to be spoiled by himself. Sending big hugs to you and yours.
I was really sad to read the news last night on Facebook, and I've learned that dogs have a way of leaving a big hole in your heart and your life when they go. I think Plunger knew how much you all loved him, though, and I bet he'll be watching out for you. Sending hugs to all of you! I know it isn't easy!

Jeffie still whimpers under his breath and eventually crawls under the bed. Both still visit the graves. Whoever said animals don't grieve, doesn't know animals.

Sometimes I think that kind of loss is hardest on the other pets. People can reason and things can be explained to them. Pets are just left missing them and don't understand why they are gone.
So sorry, hon. (((hugs))) Yes, focusing on memories, going through photos and movies has been helpful to us too.

Hanson is currently a guard at Blue Valley HS and has been a three-year starter for the Tigers. During her high school career, Blue Valley has reached the state tournament every year including twice making it to the state championship game.
As a junior, Sydnie averaged 10 points, four rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game. She shot 43% from the three-point line and garnered All-Conference recognition.
She was also named to the Olathe South All-tournament team last season. She has excelled in the classroom as well and is currently on the Principal's Honor Roll.
"Sydnie is extremely passionate about basketball," said Baker head women's basketball coach Ben Lister. "Her work ethic has got her to where she is and will be a big asset at this level. She has been a part of a very successful program and has a winning mentality.
"Sydnie can flat out shoot the ball and that is something we value in our offense. She has very good range and can be effective off the dribble as well. We are excited she chose Baker and will be great fit for our program both on and off the court."

***NEWS UPDATE:*** SENIOR Ducati staff have been spied riding the new Ducati Monster 821cc against its other European and Japanese rivals, including the Honda NC750, Yamaha MT-09 and MT-07.
Sources suggest the new Monster 821 will make a claimed 115bhp when it goes on sale.ORIGINAL STORY FROM MARCH 25:Ducati is preparing for another new version from its Monster platform – this time using a liquid cooled 821cc engine as these exclusive pictures show.
Our spy shots show the model is in a production-ready condition yet sources say that it's at least a few months away from being launched. On that basis we believe this could potentially take place at the Ducati World Week at Misano in July.
The Bologna-based manufacturer will use the same 821cc engine found in the Hyperstrada and Hypermotard models which, like them, the Monster is expected to pump out a brisk 110bhp. Some Ducati purists may not be too happy about its liquid cooling, realistically this is how manufacturers can meet Euro emissions targets while making their bikes smoother and quicker.
Expect the Monster 821 to be priced closer to the Hypermotard (£9,695) than its 796 sibling (£7,995) but it will be equipped with the safety features found on the newer models such as engine modes, ABS and traction control.
The new 821 has many similarities between it and its 1200cc older brother with an identical frame, chassis, tank, seat and twin exhausts. However, we can see from the images that an all-new double-sided swing arm and tail tidy mark the significant differences.
Ducati recently announced a record sales year for 2013, marginally up on 2012 which is encouraging and it was the Monster range that contributed significantly not only last year but continuously during its 21 year stretch.
This also means there could be a gap in the range for a Ducati Scrambler which you might just hear about it here at Bike Social!
The bike will enter what has recently become an ultra-competitive market with the likes of the Triumph Street Triple, Yamaha MT-09, Kawasaki Z800 and MV Agusta Rivale 800 already fighting it out.

Remodeling for Charity: Part 1 of 5
From Dean Dowd on August 24, 2009 in General Remodel
This week, we'll be spotlighting five remarkable organizations that provide home construction and renovation for those in need. Each days story will be a tribute, not just to the organization that plans, fundraises and coordinates the renovation of these homes, but also to the thousands of volunteers who show up with hammers and work gloves to be a part of the vision. Heres the story of the well-known nonprofit, Habitat for Humanity, national leader in home-building for low-income families.
Habitat for Humanity
Dorothy stands in front of the oak tree beside her home, the one she planted nearly 21 years ago. For her, the tree represents the stability shes found as a Habitat for Humanity homeowner. She had been raising her nine grandchildren in a neighborhood plagued by drugs and crime, and she saw no way out. Not having enough money for a down payment, Dorothy felt little hope that shed ever own a comfortable home for the kids to play and have their own space.
That was, until she became the first Habitat homeowner in Houston. Dorothy and her nine grandchildren, ranging in age from four to 18, moved in two days before the Christmas of 1988. Her house payments today are less than her rent was two decades ago. Shes grateful for the no-interest loan that will allow her to pay off her debt in the next few years. I want to be able to pay the last note, she said. I want to savor the feeling that I have paid it off and that its completely mine.
The tree isnt all thats grown in this safe-haven of a neighborhood. Her grandchildren are all grown and gone, but they come home often to the same address on Rawley Street where they grew up. Dorothy had longed for that security for them. Homeownership has taught her about home maintenance and being part of a community. I am totally, completely happy here, she said. And theres not a mansion in the world I would trade my home for.
Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit Christian housing ministry that has built over 300,000 houses for more than 1.5 million people in communities all over the world.
Habitat for Humanity with Homeowner Services of America
These low-income families are not given a handout, but a hand up. In addition to a down payment and monthly mortgage payments, the homeowners spend hundreds of hours, lovingly called sweat equity, working side-by-side with volunteers on their own Habitat home and then on houses for others. The mortgage payments go toward building more homes.
The program could not go forward without thousands of volunteers in the 3,000 worldwide communities where Habitat for Humanity homes have sprang up. Homeowner Services of America (HSA) and its sister company, First Design Cabinetry (FDC), donated a set of kitchen cabinetry to Habitat for Humanity of Huron Valley for an Ypsilanti, Michigan home.
David Rhoads (left), HSAs founder, owner and president, met with a construction coordinator to deliver the $3,000 cabinets.
Vacant land suitable for building homes is almost nonexistent in Huron Valley. So Habitat switched its focus from new construction to remodeling; they improve foreclosed or run-down properties. This beautifies neighborhoods. And future homeowners have a place to call home. Says HSA founder David Rhoads, the work is a win- win for everybody.
How Does Habitat Raise Funds?
Through volunteer organizations like Kitchen Design Concepts
Kitchen Design Concepts co-owners Jennifer Sherrill and Mary Kathryn Reese of Dallas, Texas, recycle gently used cabinets and other kitchen items to raise funds for Habitat for Humanity
Dallas-area Habitat for Humanity received a helping hand from Kitchen Design when they approached the nonprofit with a proposal. They put forward selling gently used kitchen and household items discarded in renovations to raise money for Habitat. So far, $50,000 has been generated.
They want to spread the word about recycling to:
- Support a charity
- Protect our environment
- Receive a tax deduction
Its a win-win-win situation! The donor, homeowner and community all benefit.
Habitat for Humanity International was founded in 1976 by Millard and Linda Fuller. Today, the organization is a true world leader in addressing the issues of poverty housing. And its because many are stepping up to live out Mr. Fullers vision, seeing life as both a gift and a responsibility. My responsibility is to use what God has given me to help his people in need.

The Mr. Perfect tribute video
Feb 10, 2013 - by Steve Gerweck
from Jamie Cruickshank's day in history column…
Also, in 2003, fellow WWE Hall of Famer 'Mr Perfect' Curt Hennig died at the age of 44. Hennig began his career in the AWA, wrestling as Cool Curt Hennig. After a brief spell with the WWF, he returned to the AWA and began to prove himself as a top contender. He won his only AWA World Title in 1987, holding the belt for over a year, but would leave for the WWF shortly after dropping the title, complaining the AWA was holding down it's young talent (a claim also made by Hulk Hogan, Rick Martel and Bobby Heenan, who had left the promotion in previous years). It was the WWF return that saw the creation of Mr Perfect, the character which Hennig would become best remembered for. He would go undefeated on television right up to WrestleMania VI, when he was beaten by Brutus Beefcake. This run would see him feud with Hulk Hogan over the WWF Title, though he would fall short of capturing the belt (though he did once steal and destroy the title). In April 1990, he won his first Intercontinental Title, but was forced to drop the belt months later after suffering serious back injuries in a match. He took much of 1992 off to recover, though stayed on television as a color commentator. His in-ring return came in November 1992, but his back injuries flared up again and he was forced to take more time off in 1993, and wouldn't return to the WWF in a wrestling capacity. After more stints as a manager and commentator, he jumped to WCW in 1997, where he took to active competition once more. After yet more injury problems, he left WCW in 2000, having won the United States and Tag Team Titles during his tenure. After a brief stint in the XWF, Hennig returned to the WWF, though was quickly released for his part in the infamous 'Plane Ride From Hell'. His last major run saw him challenge Jeff Jarrett for the NWA World Title in the young TNA promotion. He was found dead in a Florida hotel room of a cocaine overdose. Both WWE and TNA aired tributes, and several notable figures in the wrestling world praised Hennig's ring abilities.

True "streaming video": Learn safe, effective ways to use a pressure washer.
Professional cleaning at a do-it-yourself price has helped move pressure washers beyond the tool-rental shop and into your local home center.
Pressure washers use a gas engine or electric motor, pump, and concentrating nozzle to boost water pressure from your garden hose as much as 60 times. That lets them blast away deck mildew, driveway stains, and other grunge a hose can't touch while cleaning chairs, siding, and other items more quickly and easily than you could with a scrub brush. For as little as $90 for electric machines and $300 for gas, owning one is a tempting alternative to renting one for $50 to $90 per day.
Lower prices and less upkeep explain why 60 percent of buyers choose an electric pressure washer. But gas machines have roughly twice the cleaning power, which is the main reason you'll see fewer plug-in models at the big-box stores where most pressure washers are sold.
Weeks of tests on an array of outdoor surfaces we carried out four years ago confirmed that gas-powered machines have a clear performance edge over electrics. But more pressure also means more chance of injury with any pressure washer (see Protect yourself and your belongings, below). Especially with gas models, it's easy to damage what you're cleaning. Here are the details:
Water pressure is typically measured in pounds per square inch (psi). Gas-powered models typically put out 2,000 to 2,800 psi of pressure compared with 1,300 to 1,700 psi for electric models. Much higher pressure allowed the top-performing gas machines to clean a grimy concrete patio three times faster than the fastest electrics. Gas models were up to 10 times faster at stripping paint off vinyl siding, a test we used to simulate tough stains.
On the downside, all of the gas models required more caution and control than the electrics to avoid splintering and etching wooden tables and other surfaces.
All the gas pressure washers produced at least 85 decibels (dBA), the threshold at which we recommend hearing protection. Electric models averaged 78 dBA when running and are silent with their triggers released, since doing so stops the motor.
Injuries involving pressure washers recently rose from 2,000 to 3,000 per year, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Typical mishaps include chemical burns to the eyes and skin abrasions. You can also be injured by material shot back at you. To protect yourself and what you're cleaning:

Oscar winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman was found dead on Feb. 2, 2014, from what appears to be a heroin overdose. Hoffman was 46-years-old and had publicly battled drug addiction spending time in rehab. He leaves behind his wife of 23 years, Mimi O'Donnell, and three, young children. Early reports from TMZ state that a friend grew concerned when Hoffman failed to pick his children up from a previously scheduled date and found the actor in his New York apartment. The reports indicate that Hoffman was found with a needle protruding from his arm and various drug paraphernalia on the scene.
TMZ reported, "Hoffman was found in his bathroom in his boxer shorts, with a needle sticking out of his left arm. We're told police found 10 glassine envelopes -- 2 of the envelopes had heroin ... the others presumably were empty.
"One of the envelopes had "Ace of Spades" written on it, and another had an ace of hearts symbol -- such symbols and words are often markers from people who make heroin -- to brand it."
The report also states that Hoffman relapsed in 2012 after more than two decades of sobriety. A preliminary autopsy is scheduled for Monday, Feb. 3, 2014, but it can take up to 8 weeks for toxicology results to come back. Toxicology reports are used to determine all drugs or chemical substances found within Hoffman's system during the autopsy.
Police are still investigating Hoffman's death.
You may see a slideshow with photos of first responders on the scene in the photo slideshow as well as a video news report. A renowned actor, Hoffman was currently filming "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2." He had finished filming "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1" and the upcoming film "Happyish."

PORTLAND, Ore. -- The No. 25 Washington baseball team completed a four-game weekend sweep and an eight-game season sweep of Portland State Sunday at Civic Stadium, beating the Vikings 8-7.
The win, the Huskies' 19th straight over PSU, sets up a Pac-10 North showdown next weekend in Seattle when Washington plays host to Oregon State in a four-game series. If Oregon State won Sunday's game vs.Washington State, a 3-1 or 4-0 series win by either side would give that team the Pac-10 North title. A 2-2 split would mean a tie, and with every tie-breaker even, the right to host the Pac-10 Championship would come down to a coin flip.
Washington is 29-13 on the year, 14-6 in the division. Portland State fell to 13-29, 1-19.
Sunday, the Huskies broke a 6-6 tie in the eighth when, with two outs, Chris Magruder, Nick Stefonick and Kevin Miller connected on consecutive doubles to score two runs.
Miller went 3-for-5 and drove in four runs on the day. For the series, Miller went 11-for-17 with seven runs and seven RBI. Magruder, celebrating his 21st birthday, went 4-for-4 with two doubles, three runs and an RBI. Reliever Wayne Lee (1-0) picked up the victory, fanning eight in four and two-thirds innings. PSU starter Adam Flohr (4-8) worked seven and one-third innings, allowing 12 hits and seven earned runs, for the loss.
Magruder finished the series having reached base in 19 of 21 plate appearances. For the four-game series, the junior All-American was 10-for-12 with seven walks and was hit by a pitch twice. The Huskies' all-time runs leader scored 10 runs.
The Huskies return to Seattle for the final 10 games of the regular season. Tuesday, Washington hosts St. Martin's before taking on the Beavers this weekend at Husky Ballpark.

your comments review this restaurant and win a bottle of champagne
I have to say that my wife and I were quite disappointed by this experience.
We went to this place for a special occasion after reading the great reviews of this restaurant and we were very disappointed. We got the sushi plate which is quite expensive and no better than the average sushi place we have been to but much more expensive. The sushi was not even nicely presented and very simple and in some cases like the sea urchin wasn't fresh at all. I have read about the sea urchin sushi on internet and it says that when it is fresh it is the best but when it is not very fresh it can be the worst food you ever had and this was what we experienced.
I also had some tempura and it was good but not better than all other Japanese restaurants we have been to (and I have been to many) but it was priced about double for a small quantity. The restaurant itself was empty and the atmosphere is nothing special at all. At the end of the night we spent nearly 80 pounds in two for a plate of sushi, some tempura and some plum wine and we got out of there still hungry and disappointed because for that kind of money you should get so much more.

Yesterday afternoon, U.S.M.C. officials identified Lance Corporal Steven M. Hancock as the Marine who fell from an Osprey Monday evening near Air Station New River in N.C.
The Marines were conducting a "familiarization" training flight onboard an MV-22B Osprey near White Lake, N.C. when Lance Corporal Hancock disappeared about 6:30 p.m. local time.
Hancock was listed as a crew chief with the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing based at the Marine Corp Aircraft Station New River, not Cherry Point as originally indicated.
Hundreds of Marines from both Cherry Point and New River, as well as several civilian agencies, mobilized for the massive air and ground search.
Rough terrain and dense foliage hampered rescued efforts for more than 40 hours. Hancock's body was found in a blueberry field in Bladen County.
The Boeing-Bell Osprey MV-22B is a Tiltrotor vertical/short takeoff and landing aircraft.
While the Osprey has a long history of controversy and malfunction, there is no indication there were issues with the aircraft at the time the Marine fell.
The accident remains under investigation

Secrets of Success
Bitter Sweet Life I lead.. :(
Friday, June 07, 2013
At times like this, I wish I had some sort of a counselor to help me through things. I don't know what I need a counselor for.. I just need one to help me get to my underlying issues. And to help guide me through the hard times in my life.
I've led a pretty crazy life.. from being abused as a child, feeling like I was never good enough and that I never could do good enough for my stepmother, and at this point struggling to get through day to day. I can't say I have fully forgiven my abuser.. but I am civil with him. I guess it's kinda a forgiven but not forgotten thing.. but it still leaves me feeling like I lost out on being a child.. and that to me is saddening. I just feel like a lot of these issues keep me from succeeding as much as I could in a lot of things, including weight loss. I am grateful for all I have been through though, because it led me to where I am today.. and I have an awesome husband and the worlds most amazing kids. I won't say they don't drive me absolutely crazy on a daily basis.. but I think they are THEE BEST I could ever have.
Lately I've been through a lot. I had a car accident last Tuesday and have been working on getting that straightened out. The lady got insurance after the fact and tried to file a claim through them and lied about a bunch of things. I read everything right off the police report as for all the details on date/time/etc. I'm not going to jail for some shady crap she is trying to pull over. I did nothing wrong to begin with! But the next thing I was getting to.. was I found out my ex boyfriend was in a motorcycle accident that same day and died. It has me super depressed. There never really was any closure between us. He moved to his mom's a couple months before he left for the military and since he hadn't contacted me, I assumed we were over.. He saw me hanging out with a guy friend, assumed that he was my boyfriend (which turned into him being my husband in the long run.. funny how things work out), and got mad at me I guess. So it was all miscommunication. He'd told me he still loved me when I was already with my husband for a couple years. And I had already had given birth to Levi. One thing that has really been on my mind is that, talking to him on the phone once, he said that he couldn't help but think that it should be HIS child. Something about that just keeps coming back to my mind and it is KILLING me. It very well could have been if we had been together still.. but we weren't. I love my husband more than anything in the world.. but even after all these years I have had feelings for my ex as well. As I said though.. I absolutely love my husband. I would never have acted on my feelings.. They were just there because there was never really any closure. My ex actually married this last year and I thought it was awesome that he found someone that he wanted to marry as I still wanted to see him happy. Since his accident my anxiety has been through the roof. I'm going to his funeral on Saturday and that will hopefully give me a little closure because I don't think it's fully hit me really that he is gone.. Never coming back. (These things I haven't told anyone because it won't change anything.. and I don't want my husband to ever feel like he is not good enough for me because he definitely is!)
One of my friends weddings is also that day.. and starts about a half hour later. And as ironic as it is.. my ex's wife is the maid of honor in this wedding I'm attending but she will obviously miss it because being at her husband's funeral is a little more of a priority. My husband and I are attending the funeral and if we miss the ceremony we'll at least attend the reception. A funeral will never happen again.. and while I realize their wedding won't either, I will still see them again.
With all this going on, I feel like I have given up with my weight loss. I haven't fully. It is still right up front in my mind.. but I've been eating when I am not hungry.. and when I do eat, it is crappy quality food when I am hungry and when I am not. I feel like every issue I've ever had is coming up at once and I don't know how to deal with it. I just need to find the passion I used to have and push myself extra hard to get back on track. I need to get that thinner, healthier me back. I need to find my happiness and I need to figure out how to get through all these obstacles that are being thrown at me!
On the upside, (Yes.. there is one sliver of rainbow in this cloudy sky!) I have signed up for online classes at Colorado Tech University so that I can keep going towards my degree that I set out for a few years ago. I am going for Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice with Concentration in Human Services. Excited to get started and move up in the world!

Very sorry for your loss. May you find peach and comfort in your memories. I hope that the funeral gives you some closure.
I agree with the previous poster, sometimes losing weight isn't the priority when life happens. Try maintaining and see what happens. At least with that you are still paying attention instead of just walking away from your entire goal. Practicing for maintenance every once in awhile can be a good thing for us.

First off so sorry to hear about your ex, that is just awful.
I am glad you will be able to attend the funeral in hopes that it'll find you some closure.
As for the weight loss, if you aren't feeling up to par (and rightfully so) maybe just focus on maintaining for a while. I know maintaining doesn't sound fun when we aren't on goal, but it's so much better than gaining (not that you are gaining lol). But that will at least keep your focus somewhat on your weight and keep you doing some of the right things. I will also tell you a trick... if you change your goals to lose 0 pounds a week, it'll give you a maintenance range. If you set your food tracker to maintenance range and continue to track, I bet you there will be days you'll say "I don't want to eat THAT many calories", because you've been used to less. You deserve to be the weight you want to be, and you've come too far to throw in the towel now, and I promise you'll get through it!

There's nothing more aggravating than a tumbleweed that won't tumble, right?
Well, especially if you were trying to turn in or out of Countryside Marketplace on Haun Road on Tuesday.

Jerlecki ends run for Miss America without new crown
Truth Staff
Jackie Jerlecki left Las Vegas the same way she entered — as Miss Indiana.
The Goshen resident didn't place as a finalist and ended her run for Miss America 2012. Jerlecki will still be Miss Indiana until this year's competition in June.
Her quest for the national title began when she won Miss Elkhart County in 2010. She failed to win Miss Indiana that year. It was during her reign as Miss Duneland in 2011 that she won the state crown.
Indiana has only had one Miss America — Katie Stam in 2009. The last Miss Indiana from Goshen was Anita Hursh in 1958.
Jerlecki's platform was "Support the Arts — A Vital Part of A Vibrant Community," and her talent was vocal performance. As a musical theater and youth theatre/puppetry major at Bowling Green State University, she frequently performs on stage.
She is a 2007 graduate of Goshen High School.
Laura Kaeppler of Wisconsin won the title of Miss America.
Miss Oklahoma Betty Thompson came in second, while Miss New York Kaitlyn Monte placed third.
Kaeppler introduced herself to pageant viewers by referencing her home state's Green Bay Packers, the NFL's defending Super Bowl champions, according to the Associated Press.
"If you're watching, Aaron Rodgers, call me," she said, referring to the football team's superstar quarterback.
She was good enough during preliminary competitions to be chosen as one of 15 semifinalists who moved on to compete in the pageant's finale. Her bid lasted through swimsuit, evening wear, talent and interview competitions that saw cuts after each round.

Turkish Airlines, holding 'little hands'
Turkish Airlines organized a raft of different activities throughout the week to celebrate 23rd April, National Sovereignty Day and Children's Day.
Among them was a week-long exhibition, opened by airline president Temel Kotil, of handicrafts by students of the Başaran Nursery School run by the Turkish Airlines Personnel Social Foundation.
Transportation sponsor for Turkish Radio and Television's 29th International Children's Festival, Turkish Airlines carried 300 children from 62 countries to Turkey and welcomed them with flowers at Antalya. At the welcoming ceremony, Temel Kotil expressed the Airline's great pleasure in being transportation sponsor for this important project which contributes to the promotion of Turkey around the world, and in sharing that happiness with the children.
The 23rd of April was also greeted with balloons and Turkish flags at the Airline's Main Headquarters in Istanbul by its President and employees as well as close to one hundred children, among them thirty in the 7-12 age group from the Şeyh Zayed Children's Orphanage in Bahçelievler. The Airline distributed a variety of gifts to the children, who toured the new hangar and planes in the technical section with great curiosity.
Clowns also offered face painting and other children's entertainments at the domestic and international check-in counters at Ankara Esenboğa, Istanbul Atatürk, Izmir Adnan Menderes and Antalya airports.

15 December 2005
Yesterday, Israeli mailmen performed their semi-annual delivery of letters to God, which, like U.S. letters to Santa, are deemed too precious too discard, and in Israel, are instead placed unopened between the stones of the Western Wall.
Letters to God delivered to Western Wall in Jerusalem By The Associated Press God's got mail. Postal workers on Wednesday dropped off hundreds of letters addressed to God at the Western Wall, Judaism's holiest site. "This place is the holiest place for the Jews, and it is the first gate for prayers. That's why a prayer in this place is important and these notes are important," said Shmuel Rabinovitch, chief rabbi at the site. Advertisement The postal service sorts over 2 million pieces of mail daily, and inevitably some of those letters come addressed to the Holy Land, Jesus or God. Rather than consign the letters to bins of undeliverable mail, letters addressed to God are collected and deposited at the Western Wall a few times a year. The Western Wall is revered by Jews as a remnant of King Solomon's Temple, and many people come to the wall to pray and slip notes with requests between the ancient stones. Rabinovitch said people of all faiths were welcome to offer prayers at the wall or through letters because the Temple was intended to be a house of prayer for all nations. Postal authorities consider the letters private conversations with God and do not open them. Letters come from all corners of the globe, including a few from predominantly Muslim nations like Indonesia.

The UK is coming up with some creative incentives to keep entertainment projects such as films, animations, video games, TV shows, and more within the country's borders.
According to published figures, the television, animation, and gaming industries employ approximately 150,000 people. While some companies and productions remain rooted on English soil for now, some have moved elsewhere to maintain a competitive edge. Elsewhere where the lure of generous subsidies is too good to pass up in this period when studios are struggling to keep their doors open.
To counter this problem, tax breaks were announced recently that will give the creative companies more freedom and will enable them to better compete internationally. As a result, the UK will be able to maintain its talent pool and its position as a leader in animation, video games, and high-quality television.
UK Chancellor George Osborne in his recent budget speech introduced the tax break of 25 percent to encourage development in the animation and game segments of the entertainment industry. The incentive would also pertain to high-value drama, like the hit Downton Abbey.
Presently the film industry offers a 20 to 25 percent break on projects filmed in the UK. If approved, the other sectors would enjoy similar status.

Dear Virtual Patient:
In order to successfully start and stick with a health "budget", I think it's important to get a good basic understanding of what all those numbers mean that we doctors get so excited about when you go for a visit. Just like when you read your bank statement, utility or credit card bills, or 401K statements, it's important to know what's what and if things are heading in the right direction. The next few blogs will address these numbers and their meanings.
Vital Signs
The commonly used vital signs such as blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate, and temperature offer a quick assessment of how well someone is doing when they walk in the door of the exam room. They tell us if a patient is stable enough to be seen in the office, or unstable and need to be seen in the Emergency Department NOW. When the nurse checks your vitals, she is making sure that: 1) your heart is beating in the right rhythm and rate; 2) your blood pressure is not too low or too high (we will go into MUCH more detail on this later); 3) you are taking the right number of breaths per minute; and 4) that you do not have a fever (or, very arely, have too low of a temperature). These should all be measured when one is at rest, or sitting quietly and relaxed (not talking, eating, or even crossing one's legs). Let's take a closer at each of these in turn.
Heart Rate
The National Institutes of Health sets the normal resting heart rate range at 60 to 100 beats per minute. This is for adults and of course will vary person-to-person. Faster heart rates can be caused by fever, anxiety, anemia, dehydration, high thyroid hormone levels, medications, caffeine, cigarette smoking, alcohol, and stress, just to name a-not-so few. Slower heart rates can be caused by physical fitness, low thyroid hormonelevels, medications, heart muscle damage from a heart attack or inflammation, or an electrolyte imbalance (minerals needed by the body to carry electrical impulses or energy).
Blood Pressure
Blood pressure consists of two numbers, the systolic and diastolic readings. The systolic reading is the first number and is the measurement of pressure when the heart squeezes to pump blood through the heart and into the body. The second number, the diastolic reading, measures the pressure when the heart muscle is resting between beats and refilling with blood. A normal blood pressure is less than 120/80. Prehypertension is when the readings are between 120-139 over 80-89. Stage I hypertension (high blood pressure) is 140-159 over 90-99, and Stage 2 hypertension is when the readings are greater than 160 over greater than 100. Again, we will go into much more detail about these later on.
Respiratory Rate
The number of breaths taken per minute for adults is between 12-18. Higher rates can be caused by fever, anemia, anxiety, lung disease, metabolic disorders, and medications. Slower rates can be due to head injuries and hypothermia (low body temperature).
Pulse Oximetry
Pulse oximetry is measured as a percentage that tells us how much oxygen your hemoglobin is carrying in your blood. Most healthy adults, without certain heart or lungs condidtionss, will fall somewhere between 94-99%. Readings can be affected by nail polish, a collapsed lung, narcotic medications, an irregular heartbeat, or decreased blood flow to the fingers (where the reading is taken) caused by cold temperatures or poor circulation.
A normal adult body temperature is 98.7 degrees F or 37 degrees C. Fever is usually considered significant if the temperature is greater than 100.4. Temperature measurements can be affected by mouth-breathing, drinking hot or cold beverages just before taking the temperature, and smoking. Hypothermia is defined as a temperature lower than 95 degress F or 35 degreees C.
Weight and BMI
A healthy weight for adults will vary based on gender, height, and activity levels, but the BMI is a good tool that measures how much weight one is carrying relative to one's height. It does not measure actual body fat percentage. A normal BMI is 20-25, overweight is 26-29, and obesity is greater than 30. This is DEFINITELY a number we will be talking about much more in detail about as we discuss health budgets.
I hope this helps you understand why vital signs are so, well, vital, and why they are taken at each doctor's visit. However, for the purposes of our future talks about your health budget, we will be focusing more on BMI and blood pressure, because they play key roles in determing one's risk for serious health problems such as heart attack and stroke. In Part Two I will discuss common laboratory values such as cholesterol, blood sugar, and hemoglobin A1C levels and their importance in one's personal health budget.
