Braised Greens
- 1 1/2 pounds (about 2 bunches) hearty greens, such as kale or collards
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 large leeks, sliced 1/4-inch thick (see Tips), white and light green parts only
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 cup vegetable broth
White Bean Spread & Sandwich
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 spring onion bulbs or 3 shallots, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 1/2 cups cooked cannellini beans or one 15-ounce can, rinsed
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 12 slices crusty whole-wheat bread
- Olive oil cooking spray
- To prepare braised greens: Strip leaves from stalks. Stack and slice the leaves into 1-inch strips. Thinly slice the stems into 1/4-inch pieces. Keep leaves and stems separate.
- Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add leeks and the chopped stems and cook, stirring, until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon each salt, pepper and crushed red pepper. Add the sliced greens and broth. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the greens are very tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Uncover. If there's any liquid left in the pan, continue cooking for another minute or two until it is nearly gone.
- To prepare bean spread: Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onions (or shallots) and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add wine and cook until most of it is evaporated, 3 to 6 minutes. Stir in beans and 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper; cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Puree the bean mixture in a food processor until almost smooth. (Use caution when pureeing hot foods.)
- To prepare panini: Coat one side of each slice of bread with cooking spray. With the sprayed side down, spread equal portions of the bean puree on 6 slices of bread. Top each with equal portions of the braised greens. Top with the remaining pieces of bread, sprayed-side up. Press in a panini maker until hot and crispy. (Don't have a panini maker? See Tips.)
Tips & Notes
- Make Ahead Tip: Cover and refrigerate braised greens and bean spread in separate containers for up to 3 days.
- Tips: To clean leeks, trim and discard green tops and white roots. Split leeks lengthwise and place in plenty of water. Swish the leeks in the water to release any sand or soil. Drain. Repeat until no grit remains.

I used 800 grams of veal for 4 of us and 3 tablespoon of a home made course grain mustard (a gift) which equated to nearly 1/2 cup and was rather strong an overpowering in taste so will cut this back to 1 tablespoon and also cut the other sauce ingredients in half as there was too much sauce for us to eat it all but overall a really good tasty and quick meal to make. Served with mashed potatoe and steamed vegetables. Thank you sams, made for Aussie/Kiwi Recipe Swap #43 August 2010.

As you drive south down the picturesque, meandering, and fleeting (only 1 mile long) Blakeney Heath Road, you might notice a curious little school on your right, just before you reach the bustling Blakeney area. This curious little school is Omni Montessori School, one of North Carolina's only AMI (Association Montessori Internationale) accredited schools, a school with a rich history that started when Blakeney, like much of Ballantyne, was rural and undeveloped.
In 1984, four families came together to discuss forming a Montessori school in Charlotte, where children would develop a love of learning while developing respect, independence, and creativity, allowing them to reach their full potential. Between 1985 and 1986, these same four families, with a single vision, purchased seven rural acres on Blakeney Heath Road in South Charlotte, constructed a building, and opened Omni Montessori with a total of 27 students
Today, 30 years later, Omni serves over 200 students from age three to grade nine at the seven-acre main campus in Blakeney and a 13-acre Land Lab in nearby Waxhaw (this Land Lab is one of the nation's few AMI recognized programs for adolescents). Though decades have passed since Omni Montessori first opened, and buildings and programs have been added to accommodate growth, the school continues to follow the vision of the four founding families and Dr. Maria Montessori, who dedicated her life's work to the children of the world. Following the tenants of Dr. Montessori, classes are led by highly trained, compassionate, teachers in purposefully structured classrooms on campuses with an abundance of natural spaces.
Since Omni's founding in 1984, Blakeney has experienced tremendous growth and expansion, which is why knowing there's a school committed to children reaching their full potential, set on seven precious acres, in the middle of the densely populated Ballantyne area, is comforting and refreshing. As Omni celebrates their 30th Anniversary, we commend their endurance and fortitude and look forward to many more years of driving down Blakeney Heath Road and turning our heads to take a peek at the curious little school on the right.

Teaching the spirit and importance of volunteering to children at a young age is a gift with compounding benefits to the community, family unit, and to the child. In an increasingly busy society, with commitments to work, school, home, athletics, social events and technology, connections within family and community can get murky. Volunteering is a way to rebuild these connections and bring clarity and perspective to the myopic day to day grind. The value of volunteering for children is immeasurable, but can include learning to make and honor commitments, establishing teamwork skills, learning selflessness, gaining exposure and appreciation, and developing an understanding of the importance of community.
There are many and different ways for children to volunteer here in Charlotte. The spectrum of opportunities is deep and wide enough to accommodate a variety of ages, abilities, and time constraints. In addition, not all volunteering efforts require on site presence; home based volunteering efforts can be just as effective and beneficial, some ideas include knitting hats for cancer patients, making food for Mel's Diner, and holding a lemonade stand for donations to the animal shelter. Whether volunteering at home or on site, parents can help children by modeling a positive volunteer spirit and leading a charge to volunteer at a level that is significant to their own individual family. Here is a list of organizations in the area that offer volunteer opportunities for children. Please contact the organizations directly for more information on how to help.

As the holiday season is upon us, it's easy to become consumed by the endless shopping, decorating, and mailing required this time of year. However, the season is short and though these activities are tradition, it's important to pause as often as we can to celebrate and reflect with friends and family on the magic and meaning of the season. Here in Ballantyne, we are fortunate to have plenty of opportunities throughout the month at various venues where we can have some fun with family while supporting local businesses and charities. Here are a sample of just a few of the great offerings around Ballantyne this holiday season.

Vine American Kitchen
13735 Conlan Circle
As the name suggests, the concept and menu for Vine American Kitchen is inspired by the food and drinks sourced directly from vines to be enjoyed in a communal open kitchen setting. Opened in December 2012 by seasoned restauranteur Bill Freeman, Vine American Kitchen is working to deliver fresh, local, in season and organic dishes to the customer. Local, sustainable fare offered in a warm, open setting in the busy Ballantyne Corporate Park area is a welcomed concept that should equal a recipe for success. As with any newly opened restaurant, Vine's menu is evolving and being adjusted. On a recent visit, the server was kind enough to guide us away from several of the menu selections, because he felt they were not "quite there yet". One of the highlights on the menu, as recommended by the server, is the Fried Green Tomatoes, they were perfectly crisp and not overseasoned or greasy. The other items we ordered, salads, were not particularly memorable. The salmon was thin and overcooked and the rotisserie chicken was not at all tender or juicy. However, bltlocal.com is happy to welcome Vine American Kitchen to Ballantyne. We are rooting for the locally owned restaurants that are focused on delivering local food and supporting local farmers. We will definitely revisit Vine and look forward to growing with them.

The Community House Road improvement project will be implemented in two phases. The decision was made to split the project due to immediate concerns surrounding the intersection of Ardrey Kell Road and Community House Road. Specifically, the concern involves pedestrian safety and traffic flow in the increasingly congested intersection. The first phase will begin soon and last approximately 9 months. Plans include the extension of sidewalks south of Community House Road and a designated left turn lane from Community House onto Ardrey Kell. The second phase applies to the planned roundabout at the intersection of Community House and Bryant Farms. Continually changing traffic patterns are forcing city planners to reconsider the existing plans to adjust for more volume in the area. Read more here.
As reported by Jessica Milicevic in The Charlotte Observer:
Charlotte residents have a chance to speak to public officials about the issues confronting the region.
The Ballantyne Breakfast Club will bring together elected officials, and police, school and transportation representatives for its annual Priorities Meeting.
This year's meeting will be held at 8 a.m. Feb. 23 at the Ballantyne Hotel & Lodge.
The location moved to the hotel, which will provide small rooms for discussion, something Ray Eschert, president of the Ballantyne Breakfast Club, believes will help the meeting run smoothly.
Another key element to this year's meeting is the format change.
Instead of each official and employee taking turns discussing their priorities one at a time in front of a large crowd, each will have an individual table to talk about their particular issues.
"In the past, there have been folks who have gotten a hold of the mic and not put it down," said Eschert. "By setting it up like a trade show, the public can discuss the issues that are important to them directly with the elected official."
Eschert says this meeting could be one of the most popular yet, due in part to many contentious issues: the addition of an Uptown streetcar, the $125 million renovation of the Panthers stadium and the future of the Eastland Mall.
Representatives from Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools also will be on hand to discuss changes such as the possibility of year-round schools.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department will address the rise in crime.
And Charlotte Area Transit System and Charlotte Department of Transportation will discuss issues such as the extension of the light rail, bus routes, and road and bike lane improvements.
There also are several issues that affect the public at the county and state level, such as property tax valuation, voter identification, and economic growth.
Representatives will be there to speak with the public on an individual basis and answer questions.
Eschert said it's vital for members of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County to attend the meeting.
"There are going to be a lot of changes because of what the election brought us," Eschert said. "It's reached the point where we need to have a place where people can come and speak directly with someone who has some responsibility in these matters."
District 7 City Council Member Warren Cooksey hopes the location of the meeting doesn't deter people from across Charlotte.
"These are issues that affect us all, not just the people of south Charlotte," Cooksey said. "If you pay taxes, or drive, or have kids who go to school in Mecklenburg County, then these issues affect you."
At-Large Charlotte City Council Member Beth Pickering said she will be at the meeting and encourages the public to attend.
"The meeting is a rare opportunity for neighbors to have access to so many elected officials – city, county and state, as well as other civic leaders," Pickering said. "As a council member, it's a great way for me to hear what's currently on the minds of neighbors. I guarantee that anyone who attends the meeting will walk away feeling more informed, more plugged into their community and more familiar with their elected and non-elected public officials."

LONDON: Opec said its current output is helping to meet global demand fully and leading to a balanced oil market in 2014, a further sign the exporter group is unlikely to alter output policy at a June meeting.
In a monthly report yesterday, the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries also raised the forecast demand for its crude oil in 2014 to 29.76 million barrels per day (bpd), up 110,000bpd from the previous estimate.
"Along with the ongoing increase in non-Opec supply, current Opec production will contribute to fully meet expected demand, resulting in a fairly balanced market this year," the report from Opec's Vienna headquarters said.
The report adds to indications Opec's June 11 meeting is unlikely to come up with major surprises. On Monday, Saudi Arabian Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi said the group should leave its output target unchanged, citing a "fairly stable" market. Oil has stayed above Saudi's preferred level of $100 a barrel all year.
Opec's crude oil output rose in April from March, the report showed, but remained lower than this year's global requirement and Opec's nominal supply target of 30 million bpd, largely as a result of outages in Libya rather than voluntary cutbacks.
According to secondary sources cited by the report, Opec output rose by 131,000bpd to 29.59 million bpd, largely due to higher Iraqi and Saudi Arabian supply. This is the last monthly report scheduled for publication before Opec meets in Vienna to consider adjusting the output target, which has been in place since January 2012.
Saudi Arabia's Naimi, Opec's most influential voice, said on Monday the group should leave the target unchanged, saying demand was "great" and supply "highly sufficient." Reuters

Show genuine interest in investment, don't be afraid to share silly ideas.

Report abuse
Organisation and effort put in by members of HR & Graduate Recruitment team meant that my internship was a great experience. There were lots of networking events which gave interns the opportunity to meet each other, employees and find out more about J.P. Morgan. I was given various responsibilities and tasks by my team, all of whom were very accommodating and welcoming. The buddy and senior advisor system helped me to meet people at different levels of the business and give different aspects to what it would be like to work full time at J.P.
I would have liked a role with a bit more maths, but as an intern in the division I was in I don't think it would be expected. I think the events which are put on for you during your internship depend on which division you sit with and can vary quite a bit, I was lucky enough to be sat with a division who organised a lot.
Mobility within the firm is promoted, so make the most of all the opportunities given to you whilst interning- this also helps know more about the business and company structure.
4.8 of 5 stars

Being able to engage and work alongside extremely smart people in an exciting and dynamic environment.
The internship was relatively short.

I was immediately placed in a team and I felt like all of the work I did was meaningful and would be used.
The system I worked on was quite difficult and the training was sparse

Learning/compensation were the best aspects.
No aspects were disliked.
Networking is the most important
I found this review helpful (1)
- Company culture- Help was always a question away- People eager to share what they knew- Many resources for self-improvement
- Took long to get access to certain pieces of software
If you want to see how software is developed and its lifecycle in a large firm, then JPMC is a very good fit.They have resources to help you learn.
Jersey City, NJ
The networking opportunites. I was exposed to many different projects, which allowed me to encounter many different people.
I was thrilled with my internship experience
Understand that any role does not need to be permanent. This company offers many mobility opportunites. If you are unhappy with a role, stay with the company, be positive, and more opportunities will arise.
I think many intern managers (mine excluded) did not interact with the interns enough. I think this lead to some interns not being thrilled about their experience.
-What experiences do you have with leadership?-Explain times in leadership when you have faced issues.-Talk about relavent work you have done.

New York, NY
The culture was great. It was easy to approach co-workers and everyone was always happy to help. Also, I felt that my work really had an impact on the organization
The goal setting system of a little difficult. It's hard to set long-term internship goals if you're only there for 10 weeks
JP Morgan is a charitable organization, the culture facilitates learning and experience, and the people are fantastic
How would you open a Mexican restaurant?What have you heard about JPM in the news recently?
networking with interns and other employees, small group meetings with managing directors, and a "never be afraid to ask questions" style of work. Also, your opinions and point of views are valued just as much as, if not more than, the full time employees.
There was no organized training aside from the orientation day. Yes, there was on the job training, as well as in-team training hours, but there was no overall classroom-style training.
Never stop networking throughout the internship.

He's sure he will get rich.
He must be planning on buying a micro-house like the ones showen on Yahoo newstoday.. Or a nice cardboard box..
today is the day to short, with the tightest stop. A silver price breaking above 34.55 makes me cover. I short just in front of that price down 20 cents. Moving above 34.55 by even a nickel, and I reverse the position to long.
your friends short had a higher probability of success than any other trade, his risk management might be debatable but I have no idea what pool of cash he's playing with to comment.
haven't posted a prediction in a while, let's see if i still got game.
for you fundamental guys, qe3 hasn't started yet (i think) and large money funds won't be allowed to deploy new capital to an overextended rally in silver by their risk management teams. If silver pulls back i suspect it will be short lived but i'm hungry for some calls. at lower prices.
And I'm pretty sure your pants are on fire. You don't short AFTER a 4% drop.
This guy is a boob. He said three months ago to buy at $19. Let him talk. He proves to be a know nothing, be nothing individual. He probably is awesome at Madden 2014.

Industry News & Notes
National Honey Board Launches New Online Catalog
The National Honey Board (NHB) announced that it has launched an online catalog for members of the honey industry. In a continued effort to provide materials to help promote honey, the NHB has made available to all industry members various materials that can be utilized to educate the general public about the story and benefits of honey. These materials are made available at little to no cost and can be displayed in storefronts, as well as at farmer's markets and other community events.
The new online tool, found at www.nhbcatalog.com, brings the NHB into the modern digital age by simplifying the ordering process for industry members. This new catalog offers honey industry members a visual representation of materials available with clear product descriptions and photos. Some of the items available include educational brochures, promotional items and even a newly redesigned freebie.
WASHINGTON, June 23, 2016 – Today, during National Pollinator Week and in advance of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) seventh annual Pollinator Week Festival, the USDA is announcing two initiatives in support of the President's National Strategy to Promote the Health of Honeybees and Other Pollinators, announced just over one year ago. A review of USDA's most popular conservation program found that farmers and ranchers across the country are creating at least 15 million acres of healthy forage and habitat for pollinators, and the department has also entered into a new partnership with leading honey bee organizations that will help to ensure future conservation projects continue to provide benefits to these important species.
"Pollinators are small but mighty creatures who need our help as much as we need theirs, and that is why USDA is dedicating resources from all corners of our department to boost their habitat and better understand how to protect them," said Agriculture Secretary Vilsack. "In addition to creating healthy habitat and food for pollinators through our conservation work, USDA research is leading to breakthroughs in pollinator survival that may reverse the declines we've seen over the past few decades. We look forward to continued collaboration with America's beekeepers and honey producers to ensure this work is meaningful and effective." Read More.
USDA Unveils New 'Urban Agriculture Toolkit' for Urban Farmers and Agri-business Entrepreneurs
Online Resource Draws on USDA's and Partners' Experience with Launching and Sustaining Urban Agriculture Operations Points Producers to Helpful Financial and Technical Resources
WASHINGTON, April 29, 2016 –
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack today unveiled the USDA Urban Agriculture Toolkit, a new resource created by USDA's Know Your Farmer team to help entrepreneurs and community leaders successfully create jobs and increase access to healthy food through urban agriculture. From neighborhood gardens grown on repurposed lots, to innovative mobile markets and intensive hydroponic and aquaculture operations, urban food production is rapidly growing into a mature business sector in cities across the country.
"Urban agriculture helps strengthen the health and social fabric of communities while creating economic opportunities for farmers and neighborhoods," Vilsack said. "USDA's Urban Agriculture Toolkit compiles guidance from our Know Your Farmer team and many private partners into one comprehensive resource to help small-scale producers manage all aspects of their business. From protecting soil health to marketing to schools and grocery store chains, USDA has tools to meet the needs of this new breed of innovative urban farmer and small business owner." Read More.

Pentagon Buying Boeing F-18s as Hedge Against F-35 Delays
The U.S. Defense Department will continue to buy Boeing Co. F-18 fighters as a hedge against delays in producing the Lockheed Martin Corp. F-35 jet, the Pentagon's top weapons buyer wrote a lawmaker this month.
"The department's commitment to the F-35 is solid and we are committed to production rates that minimize cost," the Defense Department's undersecretary for acquisition, Ashton Carter, wrote Texas Republican Senator John Cornyn on Sept. 1.
The Pentagon last year requested $1.9 billion for 22 additional non-stealthy F-18E/Fs and $2.6 billion more for 28 in fiscal 2012 from Chicago-based Boeing. Some of this money came from a pool of $12 billion in F-35 funds that the Pentagon last year cut or transferred, citing the need for additional testing of its top weapons program.
Buying additional F-18E/Fs "was an acknowledgment" that a delay in buying the Navy F-35 version "would slow down the rate at which" it would reach the fleet, Carter said.
The Navy estimates it will start in 2015 seeing a shortfall in the required number of fighters for its 11 aircraft carriers, Carter wrote.
Still, "the F-35 is a very high priority and the production rate will not be reduced solely to pay other bills in the budget," Carter wrote.
Panetta View
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta wrote Republican Senator Saxby Chambliss of Georgia today that buying more F-18E/Fs "was an acknowledgment of the need to maintain capacity and capability."
Buying additional "highly capable F/A-18E/F aircraft will help mitigate that shortfall while we continue to ramp up F-35 procurement," Panetta wrote. "The F-35 is intended to complement the F/A-18E/F, not replace it. The Navy needs the capabilities that both aircraft provide."
Panetta said the Pentagon's "support for the F-35 is strong" but the military overall tactical aircraft portfolio "is not exempt" from the department's ongoing overall "exhaustive review" of roles and missions.
"We are committed to making responsible" F-35 investment decisions that reflect program status, force structure requirements and Department priorities,'' he wrote.
Questions from Cornyn
Cornyn sits on the Senate Armed Services Committee that today reviewed the nomination of Carter to be the next deputy Defense secretary, to replace William Lynn.
Carter's Sept. 1 letter to Cornyn and another, on Sept. 6, were sent to answer the senator's concerns that the Pentagon wasn't sufficiently committed to the $382 billion F-35 program, which Bethesda, Maryland-based Lockheed Martin builds in Texas.
Carter in the Sept. 6 letter sought to clarify the Pentagon's position on its preliminary estimate that the F-35 is projected to cost $1 trillion in operations and support cost through 2065, based on purchase of 2,443 jets.
"This estimate represents a projection based on an extensive set of assumptions and historical data drawn from previous programs adjusted to reflect the F-35's configuration" -- not actual performance data for the joint strike fighter, Carter said. The program office is now conducting a "business case analysis" to sharpen the estimate, which won't be completed until after the fiscal 2013 budget is submitted in February, Carter said.
Senate Panel Action
The Senate defense appropriations subcommittee in its version of the fiscal 2012 defense bill recommended today cutting $695 million from a $9.7 billion F-35 request and keeping production levels to 35 aircraft approved for this year, instead of increasing to more than 40 in fiscal 2013.
"We continue to strongly support this program and believe the F-35 is showing progress since it was restructured last year," the panel chairman, Hawaii Democratic Senator Daniel Inouye said in a statement.
Still, there remains "excessive" overlap, or "concurrency" between development and early aircraft and only 10 percent of the testing program is complete.
The full Senate Appropriations Committee is scheduled to take up the $513 billion defense spending bill on Thursday.

DALLAS (May 24, 2014) Former Texas Department of Public Safety trooper Kelly Helleson has been sentenced to probation after pleading guilty to performing illegal body cavity searches on two women last July along a Dallas-area highway.
A statement from the Dallas County District Attorney's Office says Helleson pleaded guilty to two official oppression counts Friday in state district court and was sentenced her to two years of probation and fined her $1,000 on each count.
The case arose from a traffic stop for littering.
No drugs or other illegal substances were found in the searches.
The DPS has settled civil claims made by the two women searched for $185,000.
Helleson was subsequently fired but is appealing.

I'm compiling this program using Code::Blocks 10.05 however normally I will get about 10 iterations done before it starts producing Nan in every single output. I was wondering if this is a problem caused by using the cos and sin functions and if there was a decent work around to avoid this?
I have to produce a lot of iterates because I am working on a project for University so it has to be accurate too. I looked up a few articles about how to avoid using sin and cos though I need to follow a few formulas rigorously otherwise the results I produce may be inaccurate so I'm not sure whether to compromise.

// the two cricles at a later stage
void M2(double &x,double &y, double d) //Defines movement of a particle if it impacts the inner boundary
double z = asin(-(sin(y)+d*cos(x + y))/0.35);

It is very easy to take your overhead automatic garage door in your Las Vegas home for granted, and even though it is very convenient, it is hardly ever out of order. It is very convenient to pull up to your garage on a rainy day with a car full of groceries and know that you will be able to unload inside of a dry garage.
The automatic door on your garage also offers a great deal of protection as well, as it is sturdily mounted and can only be opened and closed by you, by pushing the button on your control device.
Operates On Tracks and a Motor
Automatic garage doors operate on two aluminum tracks that run vertically on either side of the garage opening. The door is then pulled up and down by an electric motor that is mounted from the roof of the garage and a lever is attached to the door and the motor which then pulls the door up and down when it is activated.
There are springs horizontally mounted at the back of the door near the ceiling that take a lot of the pressure off of the door as it is being raised and lowered. This helps the motor to work easier as the springs coil and uncoil as the door travels up and down.
Horizontal Sections Allow The Garage Door To Fold
The door itself is made of sections that horizontally fold and bend up into a parallel position with the ceiling as the door goes up and recedes back towards the back of the garage at the roof level.
The sections are held together by hinges and the hinges are held in place by bolts. The nuts on the bolts will come loose after some time of being jiggled and moved with the door as it goes up and down, and they should be inspected on a regular basis in order to keep them tightened. If they come loose too much on one side or another, the door can raise and lower unevenly, and possibly jump off of the track. This would not bode well for the door, and it can crack and ruin the door, and even have it jump off the track.
Call A Las Vegas Garage Door Repair Technician
It is a good idea to call a reliable and well-regarded garage door service person to come out and give your door and all of its mechanisms the once over, just to be sure everything is working.
In addition to the bolts losing their nuts on the hinges, the springs can go bad, and they are difficult for the average person to judge whether they need to be adjusted or replaced. Under no circumstances should a layperson ever work with the springs, as they can be dangerous in the hands of the untrained. The motor needs to be checked out periodically just to be certain it is in good working order.
Under most situations and with normal use, a garage door and all of its working parts can last from 15 to 25 years without incident, but don't hesitate to call for help from a garage door repair expert in Las Vegas, NV if you feel in any way that something is wrong.

CASA is a child's voice in dependency court, providing advocacy, stability, and hope to children who have been abused, neglected, or abandoned.
Since 1992 we have served over 1,500 children in Santa Cruz County. Our volunteers give over 12,750 hours of service each year for our children. In 2010 we completed renovation of our new permanent home in Watsonville. At "CASA's casa" we provide a warm, welcoming, homelike environment where our advocates can meet with their assigned child, play games, complete art projects, or prepare meals in our kitchen.

Nice going for you and the kids understanding that you are armed to protect the family. Bravo.
I started my kids on being around guns at a very early age. I would clean a gun and the kids would watch me. I started my daughter shooting at age 3. Shooting a .22 that I bought her before the swim. I bought a .22 for my son at the same age. We would go out to the range and shoot as a family until my daughter decided that shooting was boreing. Now 20yrs old, guns are "Daddy`s" thing.
The son on the other hand loves to shoot every chance we get. He will be 17 soon. Having the same interests with your kids is a blessing.
