1992 Ford Ranger Extended Cab XLT 2dr Extended Cab SB
i bought this 92 very happy with it. used for hauling water since we live in the desert of texas.
it has a 4 liter engine and it delivers all we need and more
more room under the hood(can't hardly change the spark plugs
This is my second ranger and it has
been a very good truck,the only thing i
had to repair were normal wear and tear
items like brakes ,tires ,shocks, the
only real repiar was the intake
manifold was leaking antifreeze and i
had to relace the gasket in 130,000
smooth ride quality for a small pickup
and comfertable interior.
Could be a little wider.
Excellent truck would buy another,
I"m sure I'll make 200,000 mile no
problem. Great on gas.
I wanted a economical, low maintence
rear wheel drive trk. majot maint at
165K, new frt end, all (radiator ect)
new cooling system, 4 ac systems have
died(Seems poor desgin, get extd warr
for ac)lacks pwr for long hwy drives,
mechanic and i did not realize that
pulling out the(for clutch replacmnt)
stick shift made it seem like
transmission was dead, despite putting
it back in. We were about to get a new
trans before a better mechanic
reinserted it the right way. gd brks,gd
elect sys,ok paint, fluid leaks are
prblm. Spare tire just rots on holder.
little noisy,
Decent city ride, seats, height of
truck, 20 gal fuel tnk,
I know some people have replaced the
manual transmission due to poor
understanding of a quirky stick shift
mechanism, better gaskets, stainless
steel water pump,child locks,
Had 162K before manual trans failed due
to rubber boot that slowly leaked trans
oil. Must check your trans oil
periodically. Otherwise, the 3L engine
is powerful and very reliable. Only did
regular maintenance on it. Only install
OEM fuel pump and not aftermarket. Try
to cut thru bed or take off bed to
access pump.

5.25" Front Speaker Conversion
I made a post in the electronics section as well but am still looking for my answer.
I am converting the 4x6's in front to 5.25". I have ordered the correct adapter for the screw holes but the speakers do not seem to fit? There is a piece of metal that is getting in the way. Do I need to cut this metal piece?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Going to do this today... I'll let you know how it goes. At the moment, I have no advice for you...
yes that little piece of metal needs to be cut for the 5.25 speaker and adapter to fit in...
I took the 5.5" speakers (pioneer 4ways) out of the sound bar, turned them sideways, with speaker facing out, installed them in the front 4x6 holes (no cutting metal supports) and used zip-ties in the bolt holes to hold them in place then reinstalled the speaker covers. then I installed Sony 6.5" explods 3way speakers in the soundbar. everything fits nicely & secure. now it rocks! top down or just windows out, 75-80mph & music's loud and clear.

"Beautiful design for communion invitation & thank you envelopes. Also ordered the Begonia pink rosary invites. The two went together very well. Everyone loved the beautiful pink color"
"I am born in the year of the rabbit and loved the whimsical bunny designed on this label. It has simple lines and almost cartoonish in appearance. Love it."
"These labels are very beautiful. They match the invitations perfectly. They are very high quality. The printing was done very nicely also."
"The labels are very nice and exactly what I was looking for. I love the two colors. The flowers are so dainty. I will order these again."
"These are simple and easy to read. They match the card that comes with it which is a nice touch. I like that it has a cross, but it is not the central focus of the label."

There's something about the sheer audacity of the Tucker 48, sometimes also called the Torpedo, that makes this quirky American sedan so intriguing even 60-plus years after its introduction. Preston Tucker was only ever to complete 51 of them, and several of the remaining units were sold at auction after the company went bankrupt. Despite all of that, with its air-cooled flat-six engine hanging out back and Cyclops-like center headlight, the car has continued to withstand the test of time.

I take a lot more pictures than I used, now that it's integrated into my phone. I have an iPhone, and for a phone, I have to say that it doesn't take bad pictures at all. With a digital camera, I never used to take it out with me – because who needs an extra bulky object in their pocket when they go out, right? Therefore, my camera stayed home all the time, neglected like the feather duster in all of those Swiffer commercials.
Now, I take pictures of everything – all the time. I think Facebook has a lot to do with that too because you can sort of document the random things you see by uploading them as they happen.
I've compiled some of the various categories of pictures I have found on my iPhone.
I love my dogs. The black & tan one is Max, the spotted Blue Dapple one is Lucy. They are both miniature dachshund-chihuahua crosses.
After WEEKS of promising it, I have finally got the FIRST after shots done. Measurements are also done and it's all pretty mindblowing! And I can't believe I'm saying this, I really REALLY can't, but I think that I am starting to enjoy all of this nonsense, just a little. Or maybe I'm just enjoying the fact that whenever I go in to workout with Bryan it becomes nothing but a monster bitch fest about everything which completely distracts me from what I'm doing at that current moment.
OK so here we go.
|March 2nd
|June 4th
|Upper Leg
So what can we tell from that? Well I lost almost 15 pounds so go me. My waist has shrunk 4 inches (REAL inches not Jean inches). The whole part that surprises me with some of these measurements like shoulders and chest, is that they have gone down a few inches, and yet I look physically completely different. So what I'm guessing is that my mantits from back then melted and are started to look like manpecs. So all the fat from my chest and shoulder has melted and is started to firm up and build so thats good. Overall, we're on the right track. The goal is to get the waist to 32, everything else will come as it may I'm sure.
Now, while I am still a little ways off from being able to put "MUSCULAR" on my manhunt profile, I feel pretty good about the fact that I will be able to reach my goal in time for pride, which as you all know is BOOTY SHORT AND HIGH HEELS DURING PRIDE WEEKEND!
It has been almost three months since I started training with Bryan. It has been the hardest thing I have ever done. Not just working out but changing my eating habits, the way I go on about my days and cutting out things I love. after close to three months, about 2 weeks ago my extra weight just fell right off! It happened the same way few years ago, I didn't notice a difference for a while and then all of a sudden it was gone. If you know me personally, you know for pretty much my whole post puberty life, I have always had facial hair. It has been my security blanket in a way. I was a trick I used to hide the gizard and to sculpt some kind of a jaw line. Well I don't want one anymore it's SO bizarre. I started to grow one in again, and I felt that my face appeared rounder with it. Will I never had a beard again, I don't know, but for right now I'm good without it. I don't need my security blanket anymore.
I have been pretty bad lately though, while the food thing is still tough, I'm finding the drinking thing even harder. Pretty much as of May 1st, there's always something to do, somewhere to go, and some person to see. And with Pride coming up, it's my busy socializing season which means drinking. While I don't drink the super sugary stuff (I stick to Vodka Soda..the gay man's drink) I know for a fact that is hindering everything a little bit. It's hard to give it up though, how can I go out sans booze, I mean come on. Especially when I have to deal with you gays (kidding, I love you all). So I guess the next big step is to kind of get that all in check a bit more. Chances are it probably won't happen but hey, I'll put it out into the universe and maybe I'll be able to tone it down.
Today we give you the last Homorazzi cast member we haven't introduced yet. It's none other than… ME. It's a little odd talking about yourself so I'll just let my answers do the work. On behalf of the cast, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their continued support. We are having an awesome time working on this project and are excited about what the future brings. Be sure to stay tuned as we have alot of great things coming up.

It's Dan's turn to be introduced, not that he needs it. He's kinda of a big deal don't you know. What can we say about Dan? He's kind of our resident Amanda Woodward from Melrose Place. He works in advertising, can sometimes be bitchy and he always short skirts. Dan is always the life of the party. If you ever needed someone to go to a concert with, Dan would be your man. He'll dance his little heart out and "sing" at the top of his lungs. Ladies and gentlemen… we bring you DAN.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Eustachian Tubes
When you yawn or swallow, the eustachian tubes open briefly and make the air pressure equal inside and outside the ears (top picture).
The eustachian tubes drain fluid from the ears. But if a tube can't open, fluid can get trapped in the middle ear (bottom picture). This creates pressure that can cause ear pain.

Hammer Attack Suspect Charged With Attempted Murder
By Tamer El-Ghobashy and Pervaiz Shallwani
A man accused of attacking a Spanish tourist with a hammer was charged with attempted murder at his arraignment Tuesday as details emerged about the violent attack in City Hall Park.
John Charles Yoos, 43 years old, was arrested Monday afternoon after he allegedly struck the tourist several times in the head with the claw-end of a hammer. Police said he was screaming about Nazis and President Barack Obama during the incident.
He was initially charged with assault, criminal possession of a weapon and reckless endangerment, but prosecutors upgraded the charges to include attempted murder during his arraignment in Manhattan criminal court.
The victim, Hugo Alejandre of Barcelona, was taken to Bellevue Hospital with injuries that New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly described as a hairline fracture of the spine near his skull. He was treated and released from the hospital, Kelly said.
Alejandre, 31 years old, was sitting on a bench near the Murray Street entrance to the park moments before the attack. Several witnesses interviewed by police saw Yoos, dressed in a business suit and tie, walk up and strike Alejandre with a hammer, a law enforcement official said.
His girlfriend, Nuria Campena, told police that they had been watching chess players when that the violent outburst began. Witnesses described the alleged attack as "random and unprovoked," the official said.
Campena was treated for injuries to her arms sustained while trying to protect her boyfriend, Kelly said.
"There is no conversation spoken between the couple and the individual," Kelly said. "There is no incident that we know."
Yoos was held by bystanders until police arrived. During that time, the official said, he allegedly screamed that the victim was a Nazi, made racially charged statements about President Obama and stated that he loved Bill and Hillary Clinton.
Police recovered a hammer at the scene. A five-inch steak knife wrapped in a white cloth was also recovered from the suspect's jacket pocket, the official said.
Yoos, who remains in custody, couldn't be reached for comment.

agree... New England needs to get a real running back. With everyone on here wanting CJ Spiller (i personally believe we need better OL over fast RB) i hope the Pats make a trade with us to move up and take Spiller at #13. The Pats 1st round pick will be 21 or 22 if i am correct and they have multiple 2nd round picks. Based on value chart we would have to give additional pick (likely 3rd rounder) to ask for their highest 2nd rounder- 44. we can ask for either their middle or later 2nd round pick.
that would enable the following:
16/17th overall pick: Bryan Bulaga OT
21/22 overall pick: Mike Iupati OG
47th overall (49ers' 2nd rd): best defense player that falls through cracks
49th or 53ish (Pats' 2nd rd): Jordan Shipley, Javier Arenas, or Mardy Gilyard

Next tie 4-6 March 2016
Vietnam have been promoted straight back to Asia/Oceania Zone Group II for 2016 and play Indonesia in the first round.
Last tie 25-28 March 2015
Vietnam triumphed 2-0 over Hong Kong, China to earn a place in Zone Group II for next year. Wins over Turkmenistan, Syria and Cambodia ensured that the Vietnamese led the way in Pool B. They then proved too strong for Pool A runners-up Hong Kong to secure an immediate Group II return.
Vietnam played Davis Cup between 1964 and 1974, but didn't compete again until 2003. Their best performance is reaching Asia/Oceania Zone Group II which they achieved in 2014 and now again for 2016.

Whitnall girls hoops climbs within a game of conference lead
Shulta, Markowiak lead way for Falcons
Greenfield - Even after all the problems and travails of this season, the Whitnall girls basketball team still has a shot at the Woodland Conference East Division crown.
The Falcons came up big in their biggest game of the campaign so far, beating South Milwaukee, 47-44, on Friday night.
The victory lifted them to 7-6 in the Woodland East and one game behind the Rockets (8-5) with five games still to play. They also avenged a 54-37 loss to South Milwaukee on Jan. 4.
"This was a good game," Whitnall head coach Keith Larson said. "It was going to be tough for whichever team lost. It was a nice environment and a big crowd. We played well and won."
Rachael Shulta led the way with a game-high 19 points, along with six rebounds, three assists and two steals. She also hit four free throws in the final 17 seconds to secure the victory.
Ashley Markowiak made her return from a heel injury to score 16 points and tally four rebounds and three steals despite playing limited minutes in the first half.
Both players came through in the clutch for the Falcons to help them snatch the decision in a back-and-forth game.
In the fourth quarter, Shulta netted 7-of-7 from the free throw line and Markowiak 4-for-4. As a team, the Falcons hit 11-of-13 from the line in the fourth to make up for having just two field goals in the period.
Larson added that his team's pressure defense also helped down the stretch.
After losing four straight games, Whitnall came into this week with a two-game winning streak, and with some key players returning from injuries. In addition to Markowiak, post player Krista Stribling is also back, Larson said.
Whitnall visits Shorewood at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 8 after posting a 41-37 overtime victory over the Greyhounds earlier this season. The Falcons then travel to Brown Deer Feb. 13 for a makeup game.

The worst experience ever
"I made an order online, received a confirmation of my order and they reserved some money (not the whole sum) from my bank account. No shipping details nor something else were provided. Since then I'm trying to find out what's going on with my order, I'm sending emails to the cusmomer service, but no answer at all. This is so awful"
A worst experience ever
"For me it was the worst experience ever.I received this publicity in my mail and i decided to try with them. After a few days ( very fast, i must say)i received a full package with products. After that as a good customer i decided to pay my bill online, but there isn't a way of doing it. After that, i tried to do it by phone and after almost an hour waiting in line, someone who barely speaks English said that i need to give my credit card info without receiving any payment confirmation... that i need to wait to have it by mail.They are multimillionaire and they don't have this kind of services,a simple electronic payment receipt?...Unbelievable!!!!To top it all off, the customer services agent hung up on me.
I do not recommend this store and their prices are too high for the quality.The ingredients are a total mystery, even www.goodguide.com doesn't have it in their list...I think they are not serious... Until now, i don't know to pay my bill."
"Where Did The Yves Rocher I Know Go?
I purchased my first product from Yves Rosher in 1997, and since then—wherever I lived—I've always enjoyed products and the way they handled customer service issues. I have been a strong and enthusiastic advocate of this company, have always spoken highly of them, and referred many of my friends to them.
But my image of and attitude toward Yves Rocher company drastically changed after I talked on the phone to two agents, Elizabeth and Heady, who are located in Montreal, Canada, and after dealing with Erica Rabanal and Sofia Nunez, the Customer Service representatives.
A few months ago I placed two on-line orders, received two confirmation e-mails. My second order has not arrived. I called and talked to Elizabeth. In the course of our conversation, she got angry. She repeatedly told me that I didn't understand what I was talking about and I wasn't listening to her. She was rude, impatient, and focused on demonstrating her superiority. Still, at the end she promised that I'd get my parcel in two weeks.
24 hours later, I still could not find any information on my second order I paid already for. Therefore, I called again, hoping to discuss my concerns with a supervisor, and talked to Heady. First, she refused to transfer my call to a supervisor and shrugged off my concerns. She claimed she knew Elisabeth, whom I'd spoken to the day before, and didn't find anything wrong in the fact that my order had still not been recorded. The longer we spoke the more disrespectful she got, interrupting me in the middle of my questions and ordering me to listen to her. At one point, she even yelled. I am sorry to say, but I yelled back. However, she promised that an Yves Rocher supervisor would call me back and address my concerns. It hasn't happened.
Then I got into a long and pointless e-mail exchange with Erica Rabanal and Sofia Nunez, the Customer Service Department, who sent me a bunch of pointless messages without answering my questions and addressing the situation. I was taken aback. I've never experienced anything like it in all my years dealing with this company.
So, I did not get my parcel. I did not get my money back. I was abused. It is difficult, even now, for me to forget this experience. I gave up. I have lost my positive image of this company and can't imagine referring to them any friends.
In the end, again, I had a very disappointing experience, which feels awful after being a happy and satisfied customer of Yves Rocher for 17+ years.
" love that this company used plant based, natural ingredients, is eco friendly and gives free gifts to there customers. I've been ordering from Yves Rocher (Canada & US) website & catalogs for years, there one of my favorite places to buy bath products. I've ordered Facial Masks, Exfoliators, Lotions, Hand Soaps, Skin Tightening products, Foot/Hand/Nail care, Body Washes, Lipstick, Eyeliners and more. My favorites are "Les Jardins De Monde" Bodywash in Brazilian Watermelon, Florida Grapefruit, Florida Orange, Africa Shea Butter & Provence Lavandin (Lavender) they work & smell amazing!!! Love there hand soaps, my fave was (Red Pepper and Tomato Basil, sold out) I can't wait for them to bring them back again. There Apricot Fruity Scrub, Peel Off Mask and Clay Pore Clearing Mask, work great and didn't irritate my sensitive skin. I love there Waterproof Eye Pencils in Turquoise & Violet, bright, amazing color, lasts all day, great for summer. SOS After-Sun Cooling Gel is wonderful after a day in the sun, soothing and smells great. I also love to get there 15pc Samplex with French purfumes, lotions, makeup and face stuff, I love them for myself or to add in gifts or cards for friends & family :)"
"Worst experience ever with an online retailer! I ordered some face cream that supposedly came with several "gifts"on January 19th. three weeks later, no shipping confirmation. I send a message through their website inquiring about it, no response. I call their customer service number on February 8th, am told that my order didn't ship because one of the items were out of stock. I ask, why did no one inform me of this? She replies that they would have informed me of an out of stock item through REGULAR MAIL, which makes absolutely no sense and I never received any such notice anyway. She then states all the items are in stock now and she will ship it. I THEN get a response to my message sent through their website stating that my order is processing and will ship out soon. I wait another week, no shipping confirmation. I check the tracking information and it says "items out of stock". I send ANOTHER message through their website, no response. I check the tracking again a few days later, and it now says there is no order for my customer number. I call customer service yet again, and I am told that my order is on hold and due to the cost of the order, they must receive payment BEFORE they will send it to me. What kind of shady business practice is this? I had absolutely no confidence that I would even receive the items after paying for them. When i voiced my issues to the customer service rep, she did not apologize for anything and acted like she was annoyed with ME. I say I want to cancel my order, and she says "ok it's cancelled". I ask for some type of confirmation number or email so that I can prove the order is cancelled in case I get charged. She cannot provide this and says "I deleted it off the computer, so it's cancelled" and I am just supposed to believe her. I will be watching my bank statement VERY closely to make sure they don't charge me. Terrible business, no idea if their products are good as this was my first and last order. Do not bother even ordering from them. "
"Website/technical issues too numerous to mention. Now I can't even get on to their website to double check my order!! Their temp password didn't work but why didn't my regular password work? Is it because they shipped me something I didn't order--that they substituted? I'll never know because I won't order again. They messed up my friend's birthday present order and shipped it to me after confirming (with a confirmation order #) that it was, indeed, going to her. I've had coupons that I've gotten the same day and spent hours looking at everything only for the coupon to not work and customer service not doing anything. Shipping takes like a month so you may even forget what it was you ordered!!"
"Ordered and got a letter saying my card details could not be processed. Gave them 2 further card numbers and got a letter saying the same each time (all accounts in credit and card numbers correct). Eventually sent a cheque which they deny all knowledge of. Customer services very unhelpful. And the experience not helped by the 08000 number which is chargeable on my telephone plan.
First and last time of ordering. Won't be using again."
"I`ve ordered a lot of times from Yves Rocher and i have to say that i`m verry happy with their products. Face cream, parfumes, and make-up are all verry good and Price is good. Thank u Yves Roche, I will buy more from U"
"I am not sure why the reviews are so bad? I ordered on December 2nd and I received my things on December 8th. I had no trouble with the order process and everything went smoothly. My mom used to order from Yves Rocher in the 80's and I thought I would give it a try after many years. The scents were hit and miss, but I just purchased some random things. I will say that their perfume smells amazing! I usually wear Givenchy Dahlia Noir and I purchased Moment de Bonheur and it smells fantastic. I also received a sample of Quelques Notes D'Amour and it also smells great. The only thing I was disappointed in was I purchased a roll on deodorant and the second I put it on it burnt and I got a rash, I wont use it again. Other than that I had a great experience with them and I will order again."
"I had used Yves Rocher for a long time - started when they didn't list ingredients. So, I believed them when they said they used only the best botanical ingredients. NOT TRUE. In most of the face creams I have, they use mineral oil (petroleum by-product). UGH. I can't believe I didn't see this until recently. Won't use their products anymore as I don't trust what they put in them."
"Absolutely horrible customer service! I ordered a few products in December (I know long time ago) and I waited and waited and waited a month and no products. I called again for the second time and they told me my card didn't go through. I gave them another card and said everything is set I should get my products by the end of January. I waited until mid Feb and called again. At that time they told me my card didn't work...I said to them was it hard to give me a call or email?? Anyway next thing I know the lady on the line told me my address was frauded and I should give them a new address. I thought I was gonna lose my mind. I told them I have been a good customer to them for years and years and i am making the order not some fraud address. I even suggested to take the money our of my account and wait a week or two then send me the products. Again this didnt work because they didn't want to do it. At the end I emailed them and again they told me I need to give them a new address so they can ship my stuff. I recently came across a store with their products and I refused to go in that is how much I am disappointed with them! Never again! (p.s I am visiting Romania and they have a store here...funny). Anyway please ladies dont bother ordering. Not to mention I could never order online because i always got same error "my order can't be completed at this time". I HATE YOU! "
"Have no complaints about customer service (although if you call, you have to wait an eternity for an operator, and their accents are very heavy). But the products themselves are usually not so good. WAY WAY WAY too much fragrance (I bought a lipstick that tasted bad, it had so much fragrance in it!). Also, all their products are claimed to be "miracle Products" i.e. claiming to get rid of wrinkles and make you look younger, no cream or beauty product in the world can do that. A poor choice. But at least now they have ingredient listings on their website!"
"I was a regular customer of YR from way back in the 1970s! I have recently had many problems with them: poor customer service, very slow shipping, wrong orders, etc. I will not buy from this company again, unfortunately. I love their products but it's way too much of a hassle to deal with them again. The man who founded this company, Yves Rocher, would be appalled by what a fiasco his company has turned out to be. VERY disappointed."
"I am a customer with Yves Rocher since 1981. I always had a good experience with them but since a few years the customer service got terrible bad. I used my credit card online was told it was declined called my credit card there is no problem what so ever used a 2nd card same problem. Called customer service was told to send a check what I did. ordered in 2-11-14. After my check cleared called back was told and lied to by customer service my package is on the way will receive it by 3-15-14. Did not get it called customer service was told the order was cancelled she has to reorder it and send it out. Frustrating, the good thing is I love most of the products and will order again.."
"I have no idea why YR rating is so low.
I placed my order on Feb 2nd, received a shipping notice on Feb 4th, and my package arrived on Feb 11th.
I first contacted customer service on Feb 2nd to get my customer number so I could keep track of my order. I received a reply on Feb 4th.
I ordered the Moroccan Clay Mask and when I first used it on my face, I felt a burning sensation at the beginning. I contacted the customer service on Feb 16ht for the second time just to ask if it was normal or not. I received a reply on the next day asking me to describe the symptoms. I replied on the same day, Feb 17th, and received a reply on the next day, Feb 18th. On their last e-mail they informed me that they were processing a refund! The customer service is amazing! I had never asked for the refund and that wasn't my intention, specially because if the product doesn't work for me, I'll give it to someone else, of course. This shows that they go out of their way to make sure we are happy with their products.
This was the first time I ordered from YR and I'll definitely order again!"

I had a few days between business meetings and decided to stopover in Myrtle Beach. I am very pleased that I chose the Bayview Resort.
With the low price that I paid for the room, I wasn't expecting much. Boy, was I surprised!
The hotel is located on the Boardwalk and within walking distance are a lot of great restaurants and bars.
I had an oceanview room and the views were fantastic.
The check-in process was quick and easy. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful.
The room was clean and appears to have been recently updated. The bedspreads and curtains could use replacing as they were well worn and detracted from the other updates in the room.
My room had a microwave, small refrigerator and a second sink outside the bathroom. Nice flat panel TV too.
The pool/lazy river area seemed to be well enjoyed by those who were traveling with children. I was there to read on my balcony and relax so the pool was not of interest to me. I will say that what I pictured in my mind as a "lazy river" was much bigger and nicer than what I saw at the Bayview.
A quick tip about the parking situation. The small dropoff area in front of the hotel was packed when I arrived. The Bayview's parking garage is secured and you need a room key to open the gate to park there. I parked on the street about a block away and walked to the hotel to check-in. Once checked in, I could go back to the car and move it to the parking garage. The walk from the garage is not bad at all. There is public parking (with a fee) on both sides of the hotel.
I plan to go back to Myrtle Beach in the spring and will stay at the Bayview again.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The smoke-free Bay View Resort is located on the NEW oceanfront boardwalk promenade. Bay View features an array of water amenities from an indoor lazy river, pool, spa tub to a children's pool as well as an oceanfront splashdeck. Guests love starting their day with fresh brewed coffee and pastries from the on-site Starbucks. Guests take advantage of the preferred pricing offered by area attractions and golf courses. Accommodations - Select from a variety of 1, 2 or 3 bedroom condos featuring large, private balconies with either sunrise or sunset views. ... more less

- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Booking.com, Hotels.com, Hotwire, Expedia, Orbitz and Odigeo so you can book your Bay View on the Boardwalk reservations with confidence.

Nader Math
October 17Despite being stuck at 5 percent or less in the national polls, Ralph Nader has given supporters reason to believe he will squeak over the threshold needed for the Green Party to get federal funding in the next presidential election.
Here's their reasoning: Nader will appeal to "none of the above" voters, those people who pick a trip to the pool hall or corner bar over a trek to the voting booth. These people never show up in polls of likely voters, so Nader's numbers are stronger than they appear. Some of these are union rank and file who, because of the current administration's drive to lower the barriers to foreign trade, wouldn't be caught dead voting for Democrat Al Gore. In addition, Nader is likely to draw heavily from campus votersanother group that makes but a glancing appearance in the polls.
Nader spokespeople say the consumer advocate has organized anywhere from 800 to 850 college campuses, and has 25,000 university students working for him. Since Nader doesn't get much publicity, his campaign operatives are staging teach-ins and using his exclusion from the debates to drum up support. They have held rallies on 75 college campuses to protest his absence from the Boston face-off.
Students by the thousands are signing petitions demanding that Nader be allowed to debate, and organizers are sending in surrogates to speak on his behalf. On October 19, for example, Cornel West and Frances Fox Piven will debate Gore surrogates at the Judson Church on Washington Square South in New York.

In addition, Nader's longtime support for public-interest research groups, based on college campuses in more than 20 states, is paying off. In New York last week, NYPIRG helped bring people into Madison Square Garden superrally, which ended up crammed with more than 15,000 people.
Recent Zogby polls show Nader pulling 21 percent of voters who think of themselves as progressives, 10 percent of independents, and 15 percent of college-age voters. "We're on the cusp," says Steve Cobble, the consultant who masterminded Jesse Jackson's 1988 populist drive, and chief strategist for Nader this time around. Cobble points out that Nader must actually rack up more than 5 percent in states where he's running because he's not on the ballot in several key places: Oklahoma, South Dakota, Georgia, North Carolina, Indiana, and Idaho.
According to Cobble, Nader is hurting not Gore but Republican George W. Bush, because the Green candidate is drawing from the pool of people who supported Ross Perot in 1996. The Texas billionaire drew 8 percent of the vote that year. Cobble argues that without the option of casting a ballot for Nader, Perot backers would go for Shrub.
Cobble is desperately trying to line up more money to advertise the consumer crusader, and has been talking to wealthy environmentalists in hopes they will open deep pockets to pay for issue ads. So far: No luck.

Photo Details
Henry Hanson was kind enough to send a photograph of this photo/charcoal of Mrs. Henry (Sarah Ann Ostler) Paull -- our great, great grandmother. She was born December 4, 1824 in Mulchelney, Somerset, England and was christened the same day. Sarah immigrated in 1889 to the U.S. via the port of Galveston, Texas with husband and children. Several of her family, after experiencing the climate, mosquitos, etc. of Galveston, returned to England. Sarah Ann died Jan. 3, 1918 of mycardial degeneration caused by carcinoma of the liver, in Victoria County, Texas in 1918 - buried January 5, 1918 in Sealy Cemetery, Austin County, Texas. The portrait almost looks as if she might have experienced a stroke at one time as her face appears asymetrical and drooping on one side.
at Possibly Bay City or Sealy, Matagorda County, Texas

Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
The first of Sinclair Lewis's great successes, Main Street shattered the sentimental American myth of happy small-town life with its satire of narrow-minded provincialism. Reflecting his own unhappy childhood in Sauk Centre, Minnesota, Lewis's sixth novel attacked the conformity and dullness he saw in midwestern village life. Young college graduate Carol Milford moves from the city to tiny Gopher Prairie after marrying the local doctor, and tries to bring culture to the small town. But her efforts to reform the prairie village are met by a wall of gossip, greed, conventionality, pitifully unambitious cultural endeavors, and worst of all the pettiness and bigotry of small-town minds.
Lewis's portrayal of a marriage torn by disillusionment and a woman forced into compromises is at once devastating social satire and persuasive realism. His subtle characterizations and intimate details of small-town America make Main Street a complex and compelling work and established Lewis as an important figure in twentieth-century American literature.
About the Author
Nobel Prize-winning writer Sinclair Lewis (1885-1951) is best known for novels like Main Street, Babbitt, Arrowsmith (for which he was awarded but declined the Pulitzer Prize), and Elmer Gantry. A writer from his youth, Lewis wrote for and edited the Yale Literary Magazine while a student, and started his literary career writing popular stories for magazines and selling plots to other writers like Jack London. Lewis s talent for description and creating unique characters won him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1930, making him the first American writer to win the prestigious award. Considered to be one of the greats of American literature, Lewis was honoured with a Great Americans series postage stamp, and his work has been adapted for both stage and screen.
Morris Dickstein is Distinguished Professor Emeritus of English and Theatre at the CUNY Graduate Center and the author of Dancing in the Dark, an award-winning cultural history of the Great Depression, and Why Not Say What Happened, a memoir. He lives in New York City.

My husband is retired military, his son is in the military and his daughter is married to a military man. They have all experienced long tours away from each other and their extended families.
When I moved to the Fort Leonard Wood area in MIssouri I knew that I wanted to be involved somehow with helping military men, women and families. When I came across the blue star family website I was impressed with all they do and wanted to get involved as a volunteer. I contacted them and met locally with their coordinator Meghan. She is married to a military man and is very excited about all the programs blue star family offered to our military families. Impressed with her compassionate and enthusiasm I knew I wanted to get involved.
I am now Operation Appreciation Coordinator in Missouri. I recieve letter and cards from all over the US and distribute them to our wonderful military families. People from all ages taking the time to sit down, create special cards, write heartwarming letters, braiding friendship bracelets, this has all been very emotional to me and very special. The thank you letters mean so much to a serviceman or women, a spouse of military , a child , a parent , a veteran or a military family. A letter can give hope, share love and make someone feel special.
I feel so happy that I have this opportunity to use my time to thank our military families- I have great respect for them and the sacrifices they give for their country.
My experience with this NPO has been empowering, giving me the chance to do something meaningful for our military families- a chance for me to say thank you in my own way.
I am grateful.....

I've had the pleasure to be a part of the Blue Star Family team for over a year now. I must say that this organization has been so empowering and so helpful not just to me as a military spouse but for military families across the world. Their constant focus and strive for excellence in providing info, resources and assistance for the military community is to be highly commended.

I LOVE BLUE STAR FAMILIES!! They do so much to support Military Families!! They always come up with great ideas, such as their Books For Bases Program and their Museum Events each year. They find unique ways to get the private and public sectors together to support our troops and their families. They work so hard on our behalf and for that I am forever grateful!! I am so proud to be a member of this amazing organization and will continue to support them any way I can! Thanks Blue Star Families for all you do for us!!

I have taken advantage of their Museum program which allows Military Families the opportunity to visit various museums free of charge. I have also participated in the Military Life Survey which does so much in showing our nation's leaders what Military Families are facing and what we need improved.

I wouldn't change a thing! Keep doing what you are doing BSF!! Amazing organization!!
I choose to give my time and energy to Blue Star Families because I am continually blown away by the dedication, passion and integrity of the volunteers and the paid staffers. I have never been exposed to any charitable organization more committed to improving people's lives or to doing the absolute most with every dollar they receive. There is literally no limit on what can be accomplished by authentic, hard-working people who believe whole-heartedly in their mission — that's why in a few short years Blue Star Families has become the go-to military support group. I have worked with the Books on Bases program, Operation Appreciation/Honor Cards, the PSAs and helped in other BSF endeavors, as well and have yet to have an experience that I would describe as anything less than glowing.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
...seeing lives changed. Military families are often not recognized for our service and our sacrifices often go unnoticed by the greater public. Therefore, our needs also often go unmet. Blue Star Families has become the loudest voice in America for Military families and, because of that, our needs, sacrifices and successes are now being heralded by the White House and others. This has led to a direct improvement in the lives of EVERY military family in the United States.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
...encourage more people to volunteer and give money. BSF could do even more with more resources. But there is not one thing I would change about the organization itself.
Blue Star Families continues to surprise me by its unwavering commitment and creativity in supporting military families. I met a member of BSF at a round-table discussion regarding changes to MyCAA about a year ago. We were at Congressman Nye's office sharing how the abrupt changes had impacted military spouses using the benefit. I was immediately impressed by the member and realized that BSF was a strong, realistic and relevant voice for military families. Since then I have volunteered with BSF's Operation Appreciation, attended events BSF supported and have requested BSF representation at military family events I plan. BSF's energy, innovation and dedication continue to win the support of military families who understand the importance of representation and advocacy for military families. BSF promotes resiliency and quality-of-life issues that positively influence the military community.

I have personally benefited from BSF's representation and events. As I am in contact with numerous spouses daily, I have also witnessed their very positive response to Operation Appreciation, Books on Bases and its campaign for suicide prevention. The Blue Star Museum initiative truly demonstrated appreciation to military families for their sacrifices. Wow!
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I cannot recommend any changes at this time. BSF is creative and quick to respond to new issues.
Would you volunteer for this group again?
For the time you spent, how much of an impact did you feel your work or activity had?
Did the organization use your time wisely?
Very Well
Would you recommend this group to a friend?
What one change could this group make that would improve your volunteer experience?
None at this time. Each time I work with BSF I feel encouraged and valued.
Did your volunteer experience have an effect on you? (teaching you a new skill, or introducing new friends, etc.)
Yes! I was introduced to new friends and encouraged to continue in my line of work.
How did this volunteer experience make you feel?
Beautiful, appreciated, relevant.
When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
I have personally seen the stellar support that BSF provides to military families and the impact it makes on the morale of the service members and their loved ones. The Books on Bases Program, which is tailored to encourage education and reading amongst military children, went out of their way to bring the program far from a base to my unit stationed on independent duty. It was reinforced to our unit kids that they are an important part of the military family and that their service too is vital. To know that BSF sees no boundaries, really speaks to the true character of their organization and reveals their true passion in supporting families no matter how far away they are. In addition, the Operation Appreciation program has allowed civilians to serve their troops with a simple thank you that speaks volumes. By allowing people to take pen to paper and share their feelings about what the service of the military means to them, it helps bridge the gap between our civilian and military communities. This organization works 24/7 to be a solid foundation for innovative programming for our community.

The only change would be to make sure more people know about the amazing resources it provides
I think Blue Star FAmilies is simply terrific. I work at a private foundation in California that - in 2009- was looking for authentic and effective community-based organizations working to support our military families. Blue Star Families has been a grantee since 2009 and has demonstrated, repeatedly, an uncanny ability to use small grants efficiently and for incredibly leverage, and to operate as a nimble, innovative organization, staffed by military families.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
increase their staff size
Blue Star Families is a dynamic, high-impact organization that effortlessly navigates grass-roots engagement and services for military families with high-quality public awareness efforts. Their reach extends to Active Duty, Guard, and Reserve families across the force, as well as in DC, the Pentagon, the entertainment community, and elsewhere.
BSF is, as importantly, a joy to work with. We have partnered together on events, initiatives, and service projects involving senior members of the Administration, the Pentagon, and more. On every occasion the BSF team proved exceptionally talented, friendly, and flexible.
We will continue to work with BSF as long as they allow us to!

Enhance it with additional resources so that it can continue to grow and do the amazing work it is already doing in so many communities.
Blue Star Families is the most dynamic service organization I have ever known. This is one big family taking care of each other. Their sense of purpose and dedication to supporting each other is exemplary. They have done more in less time with the least amount of resources than any organization I am aware of. From "Books on Base" to Suicide Prevention Education and all of their other programs they have been laser focused on identifying real needs within the military family community, identifying real solutions that come from within the community and most importantly quickly and effectively deploying the solutions.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
So many ways. They have rapidly expanded their presence to almost all of the military bases stateside and around the world with volunteers. They have organized the most effective group of pure volunteers and with very little overhead have maintained two way communications worldwide.

give it the resources to expand their efforts and increase their support of serving military families

Time to change your master password.
http://arstechnica.com/security/2015...ter-passwords/LastPass officials warned Monday that attackers have compromised servers that run the company's password management service and made off with cryptographically protected passwords and other sensitive user data. It was the second breach notification regarding the service in the past four years.
In all, the unknown attackers obtained hashed user passwords, cryptographic salts, password reminders, and e-mail addresses, LastPass CEO Joe Siegrist wrote in a blog post. It emphasized that there was no evidence the attackers were able to open cryptographically locked user vaults where plain-text passwords are stored. That's because the master passwords that unlock those vaults were protected using an extremely slow hashing mechanism that requires large amounts of computing power to work.
