- Every town, in every state, faces a crisis of too many homeless animals. In the United States, it is estimated that nearly 8 million homeless animals enter animal shelters each year.
Fortunately, the Olga and Dorothea Dessin Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is available to help. Dessin, in cooperation with the Eastern Pennsylvania Animal Alliance (EPAA), and sponsored, in part, by the John and Helen Villaume Foundation, will offer feline spay and neuter surgeries, at no charge, through EPAA's surgical van Tuesday, Oct. 9 at the Fred Miller Pavilion, 640 Main St. in Honesdale.
"Spaying and neutering helps reduce the number of strays and unwanted animals in our community. Stray cats get into garbage, damage property, carry disease and can even cause auto accidents. On average, a non-spayed, fertile cat will produce two litters in one year. In seven years, her offspring can produce 420,000 cats!" says executive director Dara Coslett Granza.
Due to the limited amount of surgeries that could be safely performed between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m., and the cost per spay/neuter, vouchers for the free surgeries were available, first come – first serve, beginning 11 a.m., Tuesday, Sept. 4 at Dessin Animal Shelter, 138 Miller Dr., Honesdale.
They were limited to two, per household, and to Wayne County residents only, with proper proof of residency. By 3 p.m., Sept. 4, all 45 free vouchers had been claimed.

Nissan Breaks Ground on its U.S. Battery Plant for the All-Electric Leaf
Nissan broke ground on May 26 on a manufacturing facility in Smyrna, Tennessee, that will produce the lithium-ion batteries that power the Nissan Leaf electric vehicle. Although it will initially be produced in Japan, the Nissan Leaf and its lithium-ion batteries will be produced in Smyrna beginning in 2012. Modifying Nissan's existing vehicle assembly plant in Smyrna to produce the Leaf and building the new battery plant will represent an investment of up to $1.7 billion, which is initially being supported by a DOE loan for 80% of that investment. According to Nissan, roughly 13,000 people in the United States have placed a reservation for the Nissan Leaf since reservations opened on April 20. The Nissan Leaf will start rolling out to select markets in the United States, Japan, and Europe in December, followed by increased availability in spring 2011 and full market rollout in 2012. See the Nissan press release.
Ford Motor Company is also investing in electrified vehicles. The company announced on May 24 a $135 million investment in Michigan to design, engineer, and produce key components for the company's next-generation hybrid vehicles. Ford engineers in Dearborn will design the battery packs, while engineers in Livonia will design electric-drive transaxles. Ford is adding more than 50 engineers to build an in-house capability for electrified vehicles. Beginning in 2012, Ford's Rawsonville Plant in Ypsilanti will assemble the battery packs, while Ford's Van Dyke Transmission Plant in Sterling Heights will build the electric drive transaxles, creating 170 new jobs at the two facilities. Ford plans to launch an electric commercial van in North America later this year and will introduce an electric version of the Ford Focus in 2011. See the Ford press release.

Firstly to just state the fact I want Dawson to stay!!!He for me is great and should be our captain.I wanted to do a simple post asking for a one world answer to my thread. Who would you prefer to keep.Dawson or Gallas?I wanted to confirm my suspicions. But then I realised it wont make a difference. In levy's eyes there will not be a valid argument to this question. The reason being he can get a suspected £9m for Dawson who under AVB could sit on the bench more often than not or get F^&* All for Gallas.No brainer in his eyes...esp with Caulker now seen as ready.Gutted as I am i will have to learn to live with this. It will be hard to watch Daws in another top especially QPR??? Poor sod!!
Dawson 100%

3 open source alternatives to Office 365
It can be hard to get away from working and collaborating on the web. Doing that is incredibly convenient: as long as you have an internet connection, you can easily work and share from just about anywhere, on just about any device. The main problem with most web-based office suites—like Google Drive, Zoho Office, and Office365—is that they're closed source. Your data also exists at the whim of large corporations. I'm sure you've heard numerous stories of, say, Google locking or removing accounts without warning. If that happens to you, you lose what's yours. So what's an open source advocate who wants to work with web applications to do? You turn to an open source alternative, of course. Let's take a look at three of them.
Hackable voice-controlled speaker and IoT controller hits KS
SeedStudio's hackable, $49 and up "ReSpeaker" speaker system runs OpenWrt on a Mediatek MT7688 and offers voice control over home appliances. The ReSpeaker went live on Kickstarter today and has already reached 95 percent of its $40,000 funding goal with 29 days remaining. The device is billed by SeedStudio as an "open source, modular voice interface that allows us to hack things around us, just using our voices." While it can be used as an Internet media player or a voice-activated IoT hub — especially when integrated with Seeed's Wio Link IoT board — it's designed to be paired with individual devices. For example, the campaign's video shows the ReSpeaker being tucked inside a teddy bear or toy robot, or attached to plant, enabling voice control and voice synthesis. Yes, the plant actually asks to be watered.

Tags vs. categories
Tags and categories are two options to organize topics within a group. While these options are similar in their purpose, they have some differences in how they are surfaced to members and only one of these features can be enabled in your group. The remainder of this article describes these two features to help you pick which one you might use.
Tags are special words used to associate topics with subject areas. Tags are created by administrators (or members with the "enter free form tags" permission) for the group and then applied by members to individual topics. For example, an administrator of a group called "Smart Phones" might create a tag called "android." Group members can assign this tag to topics in the group to identify the subject as relating to "android." Other group members can search on topics with the tag "android" to find related topics. Use tags if you just want a way to search for topics on a subject area.
Categories are similar to tags in that they are used to organize topics into subject areas. However, categories are more formal in that enabling categories causes the first page in a group to be a list of categories requiring members to first drill down to a subject area before entering into a discussion or posting a question. Use categories if you want to give some structure to a large or busy forum.

SAN JOSE -- With the Sharks special teams these days, if it's not one thing, it's the other.
San Jose spent 10 days on its precarious perch atop the Pacific Division before losses to the Winnipeg Jets and Colorado Avalanche combined with a Saturday night win by the Anaheim Ducks knocked the Sharks down a peg. And analyzing special teams to help explain the two San Jose defeats should start with a penalty kill that has served the team well all season.
The Jets scored twice with a man advantage in their 4-3 win over San Jose and the winning goal for the Avalanche came against a short-handed crew that has been the sixth-best in the NHL this season.
At the same time, a Sharks power play that has been a concern most of the season is getting the job done with six goals over the past three games -- though one of them was offset by a short-handed tally given up to the Avalanche.
"Our penalty kill was winning us a lot of games early and now they've evened out a little bit with the power play being better and the penalty kill not quite shutting the door all the time," Joe Pavelski, who plays on both special teams, said after the loss in Denver.
With only six games left in the regular season, Pavelski has one suggestion to keep the opposition from scoring with a man advantage.
"You just can't give up probably that many penalties," he said. "That's the way it is. There's calls being made and we have to find ways to stay out of the box."
The Sharks have been short-handed fewer times than any other NHL team this season, an average of 2.7 times per game. But they have had to go on the penalty kill nine times in the past two losses.
San Jose's success on the power play is timed -- coincidentally or not -- to Brent Burns' move to the top unit. He replaced Logan Couture, who missed a game after being injured blocking a shot against the Calgary Flames, and since then the Sharks are 6 for 11 with the man advantage.
Couture has played on the second power play unit since his return.
"We'll go home, rest and get ready to play again," he said Saturday. The Sharks will try to end their losing streak at two Tuesday night against the Edmonton Oilers, the first of three games at the SAP Center this week.
While San Jose only has three games in the next 10 days, the Ducks will play five times, including one set of back-to-backs.

Weekend wreck claims life of East Flat Rock man
Published: Monday, May 20, 2013 at 5:17 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, May 20, 2013 at 5:17 p.m.
An East Flat Rock man died early Saturday in a one-car wreck on Deep Gap Road in Flat Rock, troopers said Monday.
The vehicle's driver, who survived the crash, has been charged with misdemeanor death by vehicle.
Caleb Womack, 20, of 212 Highland Park Road, died after the vehicle shot off the road and struck a tree at about 1:45 a.m., plunging down a 39-foot embankment, according to Sgt. B.E. Hipp of the N.C. Highway Patrol.
The 1994 Jeep Cherokee was traveling at a high rate of speed, Hipp said, and Womack was not wearing a seat belt.
Following the accident, troopers charged James Anthony Kitchen, 24, of 134 Piney Mountain Road. Hipp said troopers are still investigating whether alcohol was a factor in the crash, which occurred near the intersection of Deep Gap and Hungry River roads.
Kitchen and a second passenger, Dustin James Lyda, 20, of 1322 Ridge Road, Hendersonville, were taken from the scene by ambulance with "non-life-threatening injuries," Hipp said.
Kitchen first had to be freed from the SUV by the Jaws of Life, said Deputy Chief Randy Frisbee of Dana Fire and Rescue. He was transported to a nearby landing zone and airlifted to Mission Hospital, where his condition was unknown Monday.
"When I saw him, he had a lot of cuts and scrapes on him," Frisbee said. "But they had to cut him out. It was a lengthy process, with the vehicle being so far down an embankment. It was almost straight up-and-down. You could slide down, but you had to use your hands to get back up."
Lyda, who walked away from the crash, was taken to Pardee Hospital, Frisbee said. Pardee officials would not confirm or deny his arrival or condition Monday.
Both survivors were wearing seat belts in the car's front seats, Hipp said, while Womack was unrestrained in the rear of the Jeep.
Hipp said Kitchen was driving north along Deep Gap Road "at a high rate of speed" when he drove straight through a curve, ran off the right shoulder, overcorrected and crossed both lanes before leaving the road's left side and hitting a tree. The car came to rest at the bottom of the embankment.
"They probably hit the tree, I would say, 15 to 20 feet up," Frisbee said, describing how the vehicle went airborne coming off the roadway.
Blue Ridge Fire and Rescue set up a landing zone for MAMA in a large field at the corner of East Tracy Grove Road and Upward Road.

Ya... But I'm pretty sure i can trust your choices to get my hands on some obscure, unknown gems hidden in the metal/non-metal/ambient/whatever. I am following your choices and i find our tastes are pretty similar. Sadly,i've only managed to check out less than a fraction of your staff picks/lists/reviews. But i'm always on the hunt, though.

PARKERSBURG — A Mineral Wells man was arrested on a sexual assault charge by the Wood County Sheriff's Office's Detective Bureau around 12:15 p.m. Tuesday....
This is sick, sad to say this is my father & I took him to court for the same thing. He did this to me when I was only four. He is a very, very sick man. But he got out of getting arrested. Their wasn't enough evidence, but as you can tell. He's back to the same old thing. I hope he rots in prison.

Do you realize these freaks look at your little Susie's cheerleading pics, and your son's baseball pics in that paper and do 'bad things' while they are looking at your kid? These people do NOT need to be around good decent people. They need their own town very much like escape from New York. If you aren't going to remove them from this good Earth - then at least corral them and keep the children safe from these predators. And that's what they are the worst predators ever. If a wild animal of the predator variety gets you they just kill you and eat you. These freaks leave you alive (usually) and let you live in misery and guilt forever.

Poor child will have a tough time wit her life now...I say we should start castrating these types of people. If you beat your wife, you should get the*****beat out of you by 5 guys. We need to get tougher on these predators before it gets out of control.

thank you for your concerns on this matter. yes i agree he should be locked in a room with a parent and a bat case closed. also for those of you who think a stern warning will take care of the problem WAKE UP !!!! would you want somebody to say that if it was your kid. grow up and look around obviously you havent seen what our world has become. 1-5 is the prob. ppl like that should never c the lite of day again and b everybodys ***** in prison. he should never get a moments peace. thats the least they could do.

If it were your daughter or grandchild, would "pretty sure" be ok with you? The poor girl's life will never be the same and could possibly be ruined! Sad thing is, she is probably not his only victim. Then, he'll get to plea bargain like many offenders in this area are allowed to do.

Well said, Porrain. I will say, though, that $125,000 is pretty steep. I don't know a lot of people that could post bail like that. She was probably pretty sure that she'd done her part to ensure that he be held.

"Alfstad appeared in front of Wood County Magistrate Joyce Purkey Tuesday afternoon, where his bond was set at $125,000. Graham said officials thought the bond amount would be enough to hold the suspect, but he posted the bail and was released."
Officials "thought" the bond amount would be enough"? What a statement, NO bail is high enough for a child sexual offender! When in doubt, the sensible thing to do to ensure children's safety would be to GO HIGHER on the bail Ms Purkey!

How could a 37-year-old man NOT know the child was 12? She may not LOOK 12, but she would look young enough that would make anyone want proof if she tried to say she was an adult! Let's not put this on the victim, my God! He's the adult, he picked her up, he plied her with alcohol (anyone know of a 12-year-old that looks old enough to drink?), and then he sexually assaulted her. Fry him.
7 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Did he know that she was only 12? If so, he needs to be nutted. If not, he should get a stern warning from the court about making sure of who he is in contact with on the net. Lets not hang him just yet until we know the full story.

News and Sentinel listed his address as Dublin Drive, Mineral Wells and also Club Drive, Washington. Who dropped the ball on this? Magistrate Court records or fact checking? These addresses are nowhere close to another!

Due to the severity of this jerk's action, and the age of this young girl, could he have not been held without bond? If he met her on the internet, he's not as stupid as he looks,so is she going to be safe from him now that he's out?

PARK CITY, Utah - Halfpipe skier Maddie Bowman has won three gold medals in 23 days, capped by Saturday's U.S. Grand Prix Championship at Park City Mountain Resort in which she was the only woman to do a pair of 900s.
Now she wants to up the ante with the Olympics a year away.
"I might go to Idaho this next week and learn some new tricks," Bowman said of mastering an alley-oop 540.
"I did it into an air bag a couple of times, but I haven't had the time to really work on it."
Her ultimate goal is to win at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, where this freestyle event will be included for the first time.
She'll get a preview at the next World Cup, which will be held in mid-February at the Russian resort town.
"Hopefully I'll win again," said Bowman, who captured the Grand Prix at Copper Mountain in Colorado on Jan. 11 and the X Games on Jan. 25.
She landed both 900s - spinning two and a half rotations - on her second run to win with a score of 85.2. Japan's Ayana Onozuka was second with a score of 84.4 and Virginie Faivre of Switzerland took third at 82.8.
"I'm just trying to have fun and not put too much pressure on myself and see where it takes me. I felt pretty good (today)," Bowman said. " I wish it would have been a little cleaner or bigger. I don't know. I just wanted to do better."
She said the sunny skies, warm weather and perfect conditions made everyone want to push themselves Saturday.
But the event was marred by a serious crash by Canadian Simon d'Artois, who smacked his head trying to land his first big trick then slid unconscious to the end of the halfpipe.
He was airlifted to a hospital in Salt Lake City and is expected to make a full recovery, according to a team spokeswoman. Though a CAT scan was normal, d'Artois was still experiencing nausea and other concussion symptoms.
Some skiers said the crash affected their game plans, and left them a bit shaken.
The halfpipe is the same one where Canadian freestyle pioneer Sarah Burke crashed last year while training and died a week later from her injuries.
"Personally, I don't like to watch everybody's run, it kind of scares me," said Torin Yater-Wallace, who took second Saturday behind fellow American David Wise in the men's event. "Obviously, when you see something like that, when somebody hits their head pretty hard, it's pretty, like, mind-boggling, and makes you think. But then you have to go do your run and get into competitive mode."
He said he changed his final run after seeing the fall.
Instead of doing left and right side 1080s he did a double instead and it worked out.
He was particularly pleased that he mastered the Park City pipe.
"This pipe is sick," he said. "I've only ever competed on it one other time, two years ago at World Championships, and I didn't do that well. So it's kind of a good redemption."
It also was only his second event back from September shoulder surgery, and another silver behind Wise.
Wise did the same run that earned him his second straight X Games gold last weekend - with back-to-back double corks.
"It was kind of my statement, banner run for the year - one of the more innovative runs that we've seen in halfpipe," said Wise, whose winning score was 93.8, edging Yater-Wallace by two-tenths of a point. "This is what I like about skiing. I'm glad I put it to my feet on the first run because I fell on my second run, which is kind of rare for me. I'm really happy to have skied well here."
So was Kevin Rolland, who let out a scream when he finished his second run that scored 93.0 and vaulted him onto the podium.
"That was the first clean run that I landed this year," Rolland said.
Shaun White fell on his first run at the U.S. Grand Prix on Friday after over-rotating a trick, ending up with a face plant near the bottom of the 22-foot superpipe.
Another scare for winter action sports.
Yet the two-time Olympic champion still walked away with gold after a clean second run with plenty of big air earned him 97.25 points.
"That first run was brutal," said White, who was coming off his record sixth straight X Games gold. "I just misjudged the last hit and I had to squeak it out. I ended up on my face."
He said the frontside wall at Park City Mountain Resort's pipe has so much vertical it actually pushes athletes farther down the landing.
"Kills your speed, kills your motivation, you got nothing to get to the next wall and that's what happened," he said. That only motivated him more to nail the same trick - a double McTwist.
White chose to compete because he needed points to put toward Olympic qualifying.
Scott Lago finished second with 94.50 points and Luke Mitrani was third with 91.75 to complete an American sweep. Mitrani won the national title based on points earned at Friday's event and another event in Colorado this season - earning him an extra $20,000.
Two-time Olympic medalist and four-time X Games champion Kelly Clark fell twice trying to land a difficult first trick and finished sixth.
The women's gold instead went to China's Jiayu Lui, who posted an 82 on her second run to edge American rookie Arielle Gold (80.25). American Kaitlyn Farrington was third with 73.25 points.
Gold ended up as the national champion, continuing an amazing run that included a win at the world championship two weeks ago in Quebec and a bronze as an X Games rookie last week in Aspen.

is when you make a comic about freedom that isn't under a free license ;)
point taken - but
Coincidentally(?) somebody mailed me about this very issue recently. Here's a copy of my response to them:
"Generally I agree with the principle of NC being non-free but there is a (slightly paradoxical) case to be made that you have to restrict a part of somebody's freedom in order to protect everybody else's. This is much like the GPL and CC-SA do.
In this case and in principle I have nothing particularly against people selling copies of the work but I do care about how, when and why it is done. I opted for the BY-NC-SA so that if somebody does want to they just have to run it by me first. You'll note I've not included ND as I find that a step too far.
Sorry if this bothers you but I've been stung before where somebody took some work I had made, claimed it as their own and (over)charged for it as part of a collection. I prefer that my works should be available at no cost (for the work itself) to the end-user. CC-BY-NC-SA helps me to keep check that no end user gets ripped off."
re: point taken - but
doesn't bother me at all - i fully understand your reasoning behind it.
comic navigation
perhaps you could add the standard webcomic navigation to these pages:
<< first < previous next > latest >>
It would make it alot easier to read more than one comic.
Viewing a list of stories by tag really isn't convenient enough.
good idea
Good idea. I've added previous and next links to this strip and will go through the others now. The current strip is always visible at the top right of the page so there's not a lot of point in that one. Plus it's also quite tricky to setup without editing each strip each week or fiddling with the site infrastructure which is beyond my permissions.

1.2-9 Jury View
Revised to January 1, 2008
I will shortly be permitting you to
take a view of certain evidence relating to this case outside of the courtroom.
This will give you the opportunity to see for yourselves a particular (location
/ item) so that the testimony and other evidence may be more easily understood
and put into proper perspective.
Keep in mind that the proceedings
outside of the courthouse are a part of the trial and are governed by the same
rules. What you observe during the view is as much evidence as the testimony of
the witnesses and the exhibits that are admitted. So, it is important that you
pay close attention to what it is that can be seen on the view. Observe and
observe well.
Please try to keep together as much as
possible so that if the lawyers or I address you, you will be able to hear what
is said. Any time we leave the courtroom the opportunity for mischief arises.
Do not talk to anyone about the case while we are outside the courtroom and keep
in mind the other rules that govern your conduct as jurors in this case.
Jury views can present challenges
to the trial court judge somewhat different than issues that arise in the
courtroom. To the extent possible, the trial court judge should resolve with
counsel ahead of time, by agreement or otherwise, issues relating to the terms
of the view, such as whether the jury's attention should be confined or directed
to certain things, whether there will be testimony, questions or note-taking on
the view, whether any of the counsel will address the jury during the view, and
whether jurors should be given further instruction or restricted in their
observations in any way. Any view should be arranged so as to limit to the
extent possible distractions from the subject of the view. The burden of making
any necessary arrangements, as approved by the court, should be borne by the
party requesting the view.

Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. Saturday, at Buck Shaw Stadium, Santa Clara
TV/Radio: CSN Bay Area, 1370-AM
Earthquakes update: San Jose has three shutouts in four games but continues to search for an elusive second MLS victory. A team that plays seven of its final 10 games on the road needs to start winning at home if it hopes to make the Western Conference playoffs. The Quakes (1-3-4) sit in eighth place because they haven't mustered enough offense. ... San Jose finally showed life Wednesday in a scoreless tie against the Colorado Rapids. The Earthquakes peppered goalkeeper Chris Irwin with 15 shots, but he had seven saves to frustrate the home team. "Taking the performance, we'll go into Saturday full of confidence," coach Mark Watson said. ... The coach expects center back Clarence Goodson to be available after he suffered an ankle injury last weekend against Vancouver and bruised his shin in practice Tuesday.
FC Dallas update: After a strong start, Dallas (5-4-1) has dropped four of its past five games, including a 2-1 defeat Wednesday night at Seattle. Adding to the problems is the loss of midfield star Mauro Diaz of Argentina for 6-10 weeks with a right knee injury. ... Dallas enters the game in third place behind Western Conference powers Seattle and Real Salt Lake. It has 16 points in 10 games, having played two more matches than San Jose. ... Unlike San Jose, Dallas has diverse scoring, led by Brazil's Michel with four goals. Blas Perez, Je-Vaughn Watson and Diaz each have scored three times. ... Coach Oscar Pareja is expected to return to a 4-2-3-1 formation after shifting to a 4-4-2 against explosive Seattle.

Question by hardcoredlw: Do you believe the stock market place will extremely quickly crash again?
I study an write-up that stated the Stock Industry could quickly crash once more due to troubles with pupil loans.
Any individual who is attending university may have noticed they are getting troubles obtaining their pupil financing cleared with out going by way of the ringer. Also numerous monetary analysts are starting to predict those paying off their pupil loans will have much less income to devote. This happens to many since they are not experienced for the careers School supposedly qualified them for, and in flip they are working minimal wage jobs.
If the economic system crashes once again, will men and women attempt to blame this on Bush Jr. or will they see the light that Obama is truly sitting about performing absolutely nothing, and spot the blame the place it belongs?

Response by Alby
Its referred to as the "Final Sucker Concept".
Prices move up, only because somebody is prepared to pay that defined volume for one thing. When the final sucker has bought whatever for the highest price tag possible and nobody is left to purchase, the sellers get started to outnumber the buyers in a cascading effect fueled by concern. Concern that no person will buy your asset (ie: ATT Stock or RCA Stock) for any cost. So you join the selling mania and down goes the value..
Now 1929 had some other elements in play. Like the truth that Banks place your money into the stock market. Imagine the stock market crashing these days, then going to the financial institution and they tell you story, your funds is gone. Now you cannot spend the mortgage or your company cannot shell out you due to the fact all the funds is gone. Your business now fails and people are out of work. That unemployment cascades as effectively. Just before long, you have acquired 25% unemployment.
So yes, items can be Boom Times for a extended time, then all of a sudden the planet changes on a dime and comes crashing down.

The functionality of the stock market can have enormous impacts on the economic climate, and hence on costs of everyday factors which includes: Meals, Buyer items, Home loan and other borrowing prices.
You should most likely care less about it than an individual who truly owns stock even though. But if the stock marketplace crashes, or will get truly bad, it will certainly impact you in a lot of distinct methods.

Best solution:
Answer by toaddreyfuss
The stock market hasn't "crashed". It's lost about 15-twenty% of it really is worth, but that is not a crash.
The explanation behind this is people with money in the industry get frightened and begin to sell. That triggers other folks to sell at a lower cost, and so on and so forth till the cost is reduced enough that the fear goes away, then the cost comes back up.

Stock markets crash when there are a lot more sellers "numerous much more" than consumers. In the 20s most people purchased on speculation "margin" minimal dollars down the rest on credit score. Considering that most of them exactly where more than extended "deep in debt" when they exactly where asked to pay out for the stock they had to panic sale. Extremely equivalent to the present mortgage loan crisis.

What had been the principal motives or triggers of the Stock Marketplace Crash of 1929?? and what had been his effects??
Ideal answer:
Reply by handymanmike
Ahead of the Crash of 1929, a lot of traders/traders had created funds hand more than fist by using the "margin" technique of stock trading. In margin trading, the buyer buys a chunk of stocks, but doesnt pay the complete price of their worth….generally he would pay possibly 10-twenty% of the worth of the stocks he bought, with the balance of the price tag of his acquire becoming due in thirty or 60 days.
This program worked fine for a although, when the stock market place was booming, since by the time the stability of payment was due, the stock price had soared, enabling the purchaser to promote it back, make a revenue, pay off the balance due, and even now have income left over for himself. Many people thought they had found the goose that laid the golden egg, it was easy to get rich in this system.
But, like most markets, when things get insanely wild with income being produced like nobodys organization, the marketplace turns for the worse…folks comprehend that issues have grow to be overblown and its time to get out, which they did. As soon as the promoting started, those that had traded on margin were in difficulties….now not only were they not making a profit, they had been receiving hit with losses, and to make issues even worse, they even now owed their brokers the stability due on the original margin acquire. They were dependent on the profit to be created of what they bought to pay out off the margin purchase, but now their stock was well worth much less, there would be no revenue, plus they nevertheless had to shell out off the margin–a double whammy.
Nicely, now you can picture how frantic the selling became, everybody attempted to get out of the marketplace at the identical time, and no person was buying, stock costs plummeted, people went bankrupt, some even jumped out of windows to finish it all. The Crash was upon us and many went stomach up..their globe was more than.
As an anecdote to this, Joseph Kennedy, the father of JFK and Bobby and Teddy, was capable to preserve most all of his money, due to the fact he sold out before the crash took place. He explained the reason he did so was that after while acquiring a shoe shine, the shoe shine boy asked him about which stocks to acquire, he reasoned that if now shoe shine boys had been investing in this crazy industry, it need to be time to get out, which he did, just in time, and stored his fortune.

Modernism in the 1920s: The Stock Market Crash of 1929?
Query by Quan Bui: Modernism in the 1920s: The Stock Market Crash of 1929?
so i am writing a investigation paper about the stock marketplace crash of 1929 but i need to relate it to how it reflected the modernist views and characteristics of the 1920s.
Very best answer:
Response by Roger Lathbury
Modernism is an aesthetic stance that states that the modes of painting, conventions of music, and techniques of creating stories and poems that held sway in the late Victorian Age and early 20th century were no longer viable.
The stock market place crash is an financial occasion. It has absolutely nothing to do with aesthetics.
What you can say is that when the marketplace crashed and the Excellent Depression of the 1930's began, modernism was dealt a blow from which it did not recover. It is hard to consider significantly about disjointed narrative, stream of consciousness, twelve tone music, or the bending of space within a single plane when 1 is starving. Social troubles, social consciousness, replaced modernism. Auden in 1930 was a modernist Auden in 1936 was a communist.
The devil-may possibly-care, hedonistic 1920's, which had been responsible for the marketplace crash sustained modernism. Modernism was, paradoxically, predicated on the assumption of that funds took care of itself the freedom to experiment depended upon economic stability or prosperity. Modernists have been unaware of this connection. They saw it, if they noticed it at all, only in retrospect, when it was too late.

OAKLAND -- Warriors coach Mark Jackson has four children, so he knows exactly what Stephen Curry is up to.
"Very comical how he'll ignore me," Jackson said. "Turn his back to me. Act like he didn't see me. Give me that look that my kids give me when they want a special toy for Christmas."
The gift turned out to be for Jackson. Curry, who missed the last two games with a sprained right ankle, had 29 points and eight assists as the Warriors routed the Phoenix Suns 113-93 on Saturday night at Oracle Arena.
Golden State (30-17) has won four straight and is a season-best 13 games over .500. The franchise hasn't reached 30 wins this early in the season since Jan. 16, 1976, when the defending champions improved to 30-9.
The Warriors now head on a four-games-in-five-nights trip having done what they were supposed to do -- beat the losing teams on their schedule. All of Golden State's last four wins have come against teams well below .500.
"This is a good feeling to be right in the thick of that race for the fourth (playoff) spot," Curry said. "We're watching that, and we're taking it game-by-game."
The Warriors dominated the second half to pull away from the Suns (16-32), scoring 65 points on 54.5 percent shooting. On the other end of the court, they held Phoenix to 41 points on 36.6 percent shooting.
Curry led the second-half surge, knocking down four 3-pointers and scoring 19 points. His journey to the court began early Saturday, when he started lobbying Jackson to let him play.
Curry acknowledged he couldn't have played in Thursday's win over Dallas but said the pain had subsided by Saturday morning. He took part in shoot-around and made it through his pregame warm-ups.
He said pain wasn't the issue, just swelling and range of motion. He received treatment for that all day and pulled out all the stops to convince Jackson -- usually conservative about his injured players -- to give him the green light.
"This is the third time this season we've had this little back-and-forth," Curry said, "about how I feel versus what the trainers are saying (was) the right time to come back. I put up a good fight today. ... I was 0 for 2."
Jackson was certainly glad he conceded when Curry scored 11 points in the third quarter to give the Warriors control of a previously close game.
The Warriors trailed 58-48 after a three-point play by Suns guard Goran Dragic early in the third but ripped off an 11-0 run to take the lead.
Rookie Harrison Barnes, who tied his season-high with 21 points, got it started with a three-point play on a layup. Curry capped the run with a three-point play on a floater to give the Warriors a 59-58 advantage.
The Suns' ensuing timeout only temporarily stopped the bleeding. With five minutes left in the third, the game was tied at 64. Golden State then put its foot on the gas.
Curry and Barnes hit back-to-back runners. Two minutes later, Curry pushed the lead to 76-68 with consecutive 3-pointers. David Lee (16 points, 12 rebounds, seven assists) put the Warriors ahead 81-70 with 1:04 left when his layup dropped in and he got the foul, capping a 17-6 run.
Golden State led 81-74 at the end of the third quarter, then put the game away with a 9-0 run to start the fourth quarter. First Curry hit a 3-pointer, then Barnes dropped in a driving hook. Curry then set up a fast-break layup for Jarrett Jack, followed by a driving scoop by Barnes.
In just over two minutes, the Warriors held Phoenix to 0-for-4 shooting with a turnover and pushed the lead to 90-74.
"Those guards are snipers," Suns interim coach Lindsey Hunter said. "If you make any mistake defensively, then they're going to make you pay. They made us pay."
But before Curry could lead the Warriors to victory over the Suns, he had to score a win over Jackson.
He lobbied. He pouted. He begged.
"I've got to tell you the truth: It works," Jackson said. "There's a soft spot."
Golden State entered Saturday's game seventh in the league with 22.9 assists per game.
You can probably expect that to go up as Bogut gets more ingrained into the offense.

-Wayne County District Attorney Janine Edwards announced that the Pennsylvania State Police, Computer Crimes Division, Dunmore, arrested George Richard Miller, Sr. on May 9 for the possession and dissemination of child pornography on the world wide web.
Miller, 30, was residing at 217 Huckleberry Road, Newfoundland, Wayne County. According to the Affidavit of Probable Cause filed by Corp. Derek Fozard of the Pennsylvania State Police, the investigation began from "cybertips" being generated then disseminated to Law Enforcement for follow up by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
Once the "cybertips" were received, the information contained within was followed up on by members of the PSP Computer Crime Unit. A search warrant was executed at the residence of Miller where digital media was seized and subsequently examined for possible child pornography.
The computer forensic exam revealed saved movies and graphic files containing child pornography on various storage devices. The defendant was charged with four counts of possession of child pornography and 1 count of criminal attempt for dissemination of child
Miller was arraigned Thursday, May 9 before District Judge Bonnie Carney and bail was set at $25,000. He appeared Wednesday at Central Court, Wayne County Courthouse, Honesdale, and waived his right to a preliminary hearing.

The Texas A&M – Corpus Christi Men's Tennis team will start the year the same way it has the past five years, taking to the road for a series of season-opening matches in the state of New Mexico. On Saturday, the Islanders will take on New Mexico State in Las Cruces and close out the trip against New Mexico on Monday evening in Albuquerque.
The 2013 team will feature a 50/50 split, with five newcomers joining the five returning players as the team tries to defend the 2012 Southland Conference Championship, the fifth straight title for the Islanders.
Sophomore Peter Nagy returns to lead the way for Texas A&M – Corpus Christi, having won two fall tournaments, the Islanders Open and the Rice Galleria Fall Invite, and reaching the quarterfinals of the top flight at the ITA Texas Regionals. Seniors Andrew Maingot and Gergo Weidinger join Nagy, with junior Matt Westmoreland and sophomore Pietro Jordan rounding out the returning Islanders.
Five new freshmen fill out the roster, with Odon Barta, Daniel Erbacher, Ricardo Mayagoitia, Javier Pujol and Guillaume Rauseo making their collegiate debut this weekend.
A year ago in Las Cruces, the Islanders earned a dramatic 4-3 victory over the No. 53 NMSU Cowboys to open the year. Westmoreland rallied from down 0-4 in the third and final set to take a 4-6, 6-1, 7-5 final to clinch the match. Nagy won at No. 1 singles in the first collegiate match of his career.
The team will face NMSU at 2 p.m. CST on Saturday, with a 5 p.m. match on Monday against UNM. Following the long trek across Texas to New Mexico, the Islanders will have a closer affair on Jan. 30 against TCU in Fort Worth.

(WOMENSENEWS)--The pickings are slim this month, unless you love horror. In that case, there are plenty of ghoulish girls and witchy women.
April 5
"The Brass Teapot" is Ramaa Mosley's first feature, a comedic thriller that raises serious considerations about relationships between people and their money. Alice (Juno Temple) and John (Michael Angarano), likeable and financially-challenged young couple, discover a magic teapot that spouts money whenever they hurt themselves. By intentionally inflicting physical pain on themselves –everything from stubbed toes to a bikini wax and dental work without anesthesia -- they amass a bundle of cash and adopt a lavish lifestyle that they relish. They then discover that the teapot also rewards them when they hurt each other emotionally. With some quirky and not entirely convincing plot twists--involving the teapot's former owners trying to reclaim it--the film tests the young couple's commitment to each other and takes an entertaining satirical swipe at contemporary consumerist society.
"Lotus Eaters," the first feature directed and co-written by Alexandra McGuinnes, is freewheeling foray into the world of privileged young swingers who spend their days shopping and lunching and their nights drinking chic cocktails and sleeping around. The title anoints these partygoers with character traits comparable to those of the narcotic-consuming race referred to in Greek mythology, by Lord Tennyson and James Joyce. This latest version, an ensemble of gorgeous people in exquisite clothing shot in stunning black and white at sumptuous locations in England, Ireland and France, makes this film visually thrilling. But the super cool-looking characters lack definition, depth and development. Ultimately, you leave the cinema wondering what it was all about and asking yourself "why should I care?"
"No Place on Earth," a documentary directed by Janet Tobias, presents the very compelling story of a group of 38 Ukrainian Jews who hid in a cave for 511 days during World War II, thereby evading the Nazis and living to tell their extraordinary tale. Their story emerged in 1993, when American spelunker Chris Nicola discovered buttons, shoes and graffiti they'd left in the 73-mile long cave, and set out to find out who they were. The search led him to Esther Stermer, whose written memoir is the basis for this film. Augmenting on-camera interviews with Stermer and fellow survivors, Tobias relies on reenactments to recount events and create ambience. Unfortunately, this hybrid approach doesn't do justice to the compelling subject's true grit.
Three horror films round out the weekend's women in film fare. "6 Souls" stars Julianne Moore as Cara Harding, a forensic psychiatrist treating a patient (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) whose multiple personalities all belong to people who were brutally murdered. The overly confident Harding is determined to cure him. No spoilers here. You'll have to sit through the scares to see whether she succeeds, or succumbs.
"Thale" is a Norwegian horror flick that's steeped in Nordic lore about singular people who during the hazy days of prehistory shunned human civilization to live among the beasts in the wild. In the film, a team of contemporary forensic cleaners come upon one--a female fatale, of course, mostly naked, and she has a tail. The low budget film is scary. So is the projected female image.
"Evil Dead" is a resurrection of Sam Raimi's 1981 horror classic. In it, five friends -- including Mia (Jane Levy), who's undergoing detox--spend a weekend in a cabin in the woods, where they find a "Book of the Dead," and fall under its influence. The film's a bloodbath and a devilish career leap for co-scripter Diablo Cody, who won a Best Writing Oscar in 2008 for "Juno."
April 12
In "Simon Killer," college grad Simon (Brady Corbet) heads to Paris to heal from a breakup and find new connections. He takes up with a hooker named Victoria (played by Mati Diop, who co-wrote the script), and soon reveals a startling proclivity for antisocial behavior. Although Victoria serves as the vehicle that lands Simon in a dark and dangerous place, the script isn't misogynistic. This raw, edgy film is a gripping indie thriller.
April 19
Two unsettling horror films put female leads in jeopardy from ghoulish women. Horror icon Rob Zombie casts his wife, Sherrie Moon Zombie, as the lead in "The Lords of Salem." Heidi, a Salem, Mass., radio DJ, receives a demo record from a group called The Lords. When she plays the disc, she comes under its spell, experiencing flashbacks to her hometown's violently witchy past. Meanwhile, Judy Geeson, Dee Wallace and Patricia Quinn play three contemporary witches who add to Heidi's nightmare and flesh out the film's thin plot.
"Holla II," a sequel, picks up the story of Holla six years later. Monica (Keily Williams), having escaped death at the hands of her deranged sister Veronica (Shelli Boone), has changed her appearance and moved to the South where, on the eve of her wedding at an antebellum plantation--a haunted one--she's again endangered. The only way this franchise could be made more bloody aggressive (or aggressively bloody) would be to make Holla III in 3-D.
April 26
"The Reluctant Fundamentalist" is a timely dramatic thriller in which Changez (Riz Ahmed), aa Princeton-educated Pakistani man who's living the American dream as a Wall Street financial wiz, is caught up in post 9/11 intrigue. Changez is the victim of racial profiling in the United States, while in Pakistan he's berated by his impoverished poet father for having embraced Western values. He occupies a cultural no man's land, a place rife with emotional conflict and challenging politics. His neurotic main squeeze (Kate Hudson) further destabilizes his life. Based on Moshin Hamid's novel, co-scripted by Ami Boghani and deftly directed by Mira Nair, the film keeps tension taught while creating empathy for the anguished and angry Changez as he struggles to escape the intrigue.
"One Night Stand," directed by Elisabeth Sperling and Trish Dalton, documents a group of well-known actors, directors, composers and choreographers who get together for a 24 hour period to think up and produce a series of four 20-minute musicals. The mini-musicals are performed only once, at a charity event staged to fund workshops of full-length musical theater productions. With Richard Kind, Rachel Dratch, Cheyenne Jackson and other popular stars in the ensemble, this documentary is very entertaining, and all for a good cause.
In "Arthur Newman," screenwriter Becky Johnston takes the title character (played by Colin Firth) on an existential journey. He fakes his own death in order to escape from his mediocre life and start anew--as a golf pro. Hardly realistic, he hooks up with Mike (Emily Blunt) and embarks on a journey of self-discovery that involves a lot of self-deception and escape.
"At Any Price," co-scripted by Hallie Elizabeth Newton, presents a compelling family drama with strong sociopolitical underpinnings. Dennis Quaid stars as a Midwesterner who's intent on keeping his family farm viable and in the family. He's challenged by corporate farming, genetically engineered crops and a son (Zac Efron) who wants to be a race car driver. Rahmin Bahrani directs a fine film with impact that's greater than the sum of its parts.
In addition to covering film for Women's eNews, Jennifer Merin writes about documentaries for About.com and is president of the Alliance of Women Film Journalists, a nonprofit organization of the leading female film journalists in the U.S. and Canada. She is also a member of the prestigious Broadcast Film Critics Association.

October 12, 2005
Most of the middle schools in Columbia County are at capacity. News 12 is on your side with how a new school may help solve the problem.
The school board is looking to build the new school near Fury's Ferry and Blackstone Camp Road. Several hundred students will be redistricted from other area middle schools so they can learn in classrooms instead of portables.
Thirty-five students fill Casey Heckathom's physical education class every period of every school day. This number is right under the maximum of forty for a middle school PE class.
"I'm sure you'd like to have less so you can get more individual attention," Heckathom said.
Riverside Middle School is one of the most crowded in Columbia County. The schools county-wide have up to eight hundred students each, but the school board would like to see that number drop to around six hundred. The Board of Education will add more portables to schools before they will overload class sizes. Last night, Chairman Regina Buccafusco and the rest of the board voted to add five more portables to Columbia County schools.
"You want a smaller campus, you want the students to get to know each other and the teachers to know the students really well. It's important to keep them small enough so they have that community feeling," Buccafusco said.
The ratio at Riverside is about one teacher to every 26 students. The schools can't grow class sizes much more because of a requirement by the Georgia Department of Education.
The fourteen trailers at Riverside and eleven at Evans won't be necessary anymore once the new school comes to the River Island Subdivision area.
Students on the Fury's Ferry side of I-20 will be rezoned. The new school will be built for the 2007 school year.
"We've got great kids. It's a lucky situation, and I love coming to work every day," Heckathom said.
Right now the school board is trying to negotiate a price for the property. Since the area is growing, they say property values are on the rise. They need to have the title approved by November 1.

Critical Mass is a paradox. In Manhattan, there's nothing but turmoil and in Seattle a knife was pullled during the last one or arrests get made. In Brooklyn, for 3 years now, they've critically masssed with no arrests, no tickets, and the NYPD is even called "friendly." StreetFilms just published a short film on the subject. I've only ridden a Critical Mass once, by accident (all kitted up with my race bike, feeling totally out of place) and it was fun and festive with tall bikes, longtail bikes, old schwinns, and everything else.
In Arizona, the next Critical Mass is on July 21st where they'll meet around 6:30 pm at @ Tempe Beach park and ride to the Lost Leaf Tavern at 5th & Roosevelt. After the mass they'll alleycat race with the winner taking all in the fixed race. Don't know if they're friends or foes with the police there.

MENIFEE, Calif.—Authorities say there was that repulsive urine smell and overloaded litter boxes, but every one of the 72 cats seized at a man's home in Riverside County was spayed or neutered and well fed.
Animal Friends of the Valley spokeswoman Monique Middleton says the Menifee man was taking in unwanted cats and it just got out of control. She says he was not arrested so his name is being withheld. He is lone caretaker for his wife, who has health problems.
The Riverside Press-Enterprise ( http://bit.ly/WgnRwJ) says the man has turned over all the indoor cats to animal control officers but initially balked because he feared the cats would be killed.
An animal rescue group took a dozen cats and Ramona Humane Society took 60. Most are available for adoption.

Now retired, Rich enjoyed reading, writing music and short essays. He is the director of Kirksville Community Chorus.
You may find my title confusing. Not long ago I wrote my 100th edition of my blog. I have a birthday coming, but 42 is a distant memory. What I'm talking about is the new movie "42." The movie is about Jackie Robinson, the first Afro-American baseball player to sign with a major league baseball team.
Jackie Roosevelt Robinson was born in Cairo, Georgia in 1919 and was raised by his mother after his father left the family when Jackie was only six months old. Chadwick Boseman, a relatively unknown 31 year old actor, played Robinson in the movie titled "42." Boseman is and athlete originally from South Carolina. He looks astonishingly similar to the young baseball hero he portrayed so artfully, and was clearly the lead character in this expertly produced film. Harrison Ford also excelled as Branch Rickey, Brooklyn Dodgers executive. According to the dialogue, Rickey saw that black Americans would clearly be infiltrating major league baseball and took the chance of signing the first negro in a bold move to win games and to boost the attendance of black Americans bringing in dollars. His character defended the choice by saying that money was neither black nor white, but all green.
This movie is touching from beginning to endt. It's a love story. Players and most other Americans have long been avid baseball fans. We've all heard the adage that indicates an activity as "American as Mom, Baseball and Apple Pie." The movie speaks to America's love affair with baseball. The film also portrays the love between Robinson and his wife, Rachel. More than an extended anecdote about these two loves, the story is one of racism in America and the part it played in nearly barring Robinson from his chance to play the sport that was so natural for him. It's a look at Executive Rickey's religious dedication and his belief that it played a part in the development of this hero who overcame brutal jeering in order to make his mark on the history of the American pastime.
This is one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. It takes a hard look at the racism that seems so completely senseless. Sadly….no, tragically, racism is still a part of our country's makeup. It's unnecessary for me to provide examples of racism that still exists all around us. It is well beyond me to explain how racism can still thrive in a country that should have moved beyond such narrow views
This movie is extremely well done. One need not know a thing about baseball. In fact, I shouldn't think it is necessary to even like baseball. It's a film that is funny, sad, touching and true. It's a must see movie. Above all it provides an exceptional history lesson.

It's a wonder that no one has made a novel, movie, or television series about the life of Wood County's Martin Varner. It's all there in black and white in Don Raney's recent history of Varner, "Martin Varner: Texas Pioneer, His Life Story and His Descendants." And, there's a whole lot of Wood County history there through tracing the many family connections of the Varner family.
Don was born here himself in the Hoard community and not very far from the area that Varner and his family (the first White settlers in the Wood County area) lived just south of present-day Hainesville. Connections to other historic pioneer families of Wood County are also in the book.
Don made all this come alive in his presentation to the April meeting of the society at the library in Quitman. If you want a story about a man who traveled across the United States to Texas with conflicts along the way with Indians, the United States government, and, oh, yes, the Mexican government and ultimately Santa Anna's army, Don Raney is a man you should see (or at least read his book). Varner's ultimate death at the hands of a neighbor over what seems to us a trivial matter (tools of the neighbor's trade) qualifies as a true heroic tragedy.
I am so happy I didn't miss the April meeting and, thus, miss hearing Don tell the story. I knew he was a good teacher from a previous visit he made to the society and from workshops I attended which he taught at a genealogical conference in Lufkin several years ago.
If you missed the meeting and have not seen his book, society Vice-president Dororthy Harbin has some copies of the book for sale at a very reasonable price (and a part of the purchase price will go as a donation to the society). You can contact her at 903-571-4965 or at P.O. Box 794, Quitman, TX 75783 or by email at email@example.com.

The purpose of screening is early diagnosis and treatment. Screening tests are usually administered to people without current symptoms, but who may be at high risk for certain diseases or conditions.
Screening Tests and Guidelines
There are no screening tests or guidelines for kidney stones.
Kidney stones can be detected before they become symptomatic, particularly with
CT scans
. People who have already had a kidney stone may undergo follow-up x-rays to ensure they have not formed another stone.

SNOWMASS VILLAGE - The voters have spoken: They don't want the town to regulate plastic and paper bags.
According to preliminary results from Election Day, 52.71 percent of eligible Snowmass voters responded "no" to an advisory question asking if the town should pursue any kind of ordinance on the distribution and use of single-use, disposable plastic and paper bags.
Mayor Bill Boineau, who started the conversation that led Town Council to put the question on the ballot, said he's not going to pursue bag legislation any further.
"That's why I asked them to put it on the ballot," he said.
When he brought it up this summer, Boineau had hoped to draft an ordinance that the council could present voters with. When there wasn't enough time to accomplish that, the council voted to ask the advisory question to see how the community felt about a bag ordinance in general.
By a slim margin, they responded negatively, with 655 "yes" votes and 730 "no" votes counted as of Nov. 6.
"I do believe there could be a good educational program of some sort that helps businesses and people in the community do something different than always using plastic bags," Boineau said.
Director of communications Kelly Vaughn said the Environmental Advisory Board, which met the day after the election, has the same attitude.
"There doesn't have to be a regulation or a ban or legislation passed in order for there to be education around single-use plastic bags," Vaughn said.
Sally Sparhawk, board chairwoman, said an educational program would be the next logical step. However, she said bag legislation isn't the highest priority.
"More and more people are bringing bags on their own," she said.
Sparhawk based that comment on an observation made by vice chairman Chris Jacobson. Jacobson, who is leading the race for the second open seat on Town Council, said while standing outside Village Market campaigning he noticed a lot of residents carrying reusable bags.
"It was surprising to me," he said. "There were a lot of people already voluntarily bringing their bags."
Some hotels and businesses in the Roaring Fork Valley produce reusable bags with their logos on them. Jacobson said the board hasn't come up with a concrete plan yet but discussed teaming up with the marketing board or even reaching out to local businesses to create bags and make them available to the public.
"The town and businesses could team up to just get the job done," he said.
He reiterated that bags aren't the most critical issue to the board and that it didn't see the need to spend a lot of time on them. According to Jacobson, much of the conversation around a bag ordinance wound up revolving around government's role in such issues.
"It would be nice to still just solve the problem," he said. "I think it'd be a shame to see a simple solution wasted because of a larger ideological discussion."
According to Sparhawk, the board is working to find more renewable energy sources for the town. She also said the Town Council might have some new environmental priorities after the election.
"There are bigger issues," she said. "We're looking now at a holistic view of the town."

NFL Draft: Top 5 running backs
Eddie Lacy, Alabama
Go to any Waffle House in the South, transfer the cook to the Alabama backfield, and he'll run for first downs behind Tide blockers. Lacy (5-10, 220) can move piles and dart east-west, but bear in mind the modest NFL success of two Bama backs (Ingram, Richardson) taken high in recent drafts.
Montee Ball, Wisconsin
With Russell Wilson leading Seattle to the NFL playoffs and three new starters in the offensive line, Ball averaged 5.1 yards per carry as a senior. Is the NCAA's all-time leader in touchdowns. The odometer on Ball (5-11, 215) shows a stunning 983 touches.
Giovani Bernard, North Carolina
Lateral quickness is a moneymaker for this compact (5-10, 202) ex-Notre Dame commit. A torn ACL cancelled his '10 season. Last year he was fourth in the nation with an average of 198.1 all-purpose yards per game, though a knee injury cost him two games.
Joseph Randle, Oklahoma State
After Cowboys quarterback Brandon Weeden and receiver Justin Blackmon were first-round picks last year, Randle emerged to lead the Big 12 in rushing (1,417 yards, 5.2 average, 14 TDs) and had 28 catches for 224 yards. Randle (6-0, 200) gets up to speed fast, but his upright style invites flush hits.
Marcus Lattimore, South Carolina
Would be the No. 1 back in his class but for an ACL tear, his second, suffered Oct. 27 against Tennessee. The play left Lattimore (6-0, 220) with two other torn knee ligament. He said he's encouraged by the NFL career of Willis McGahee, who tore three knee ligaments in the 2003 Fiesta Bowl.

Delizioso appartamento al secondo piano di un palazzo tranquillo in un meraviglioso quartiere di Parigi. La strada, piena di gallerie d'arte, fa parte di quel reticolo di vie, vicoli ed ambientazioni molto amate da artisti, intellettuali e da chiunque ami le atmosfere non frenetiche, di gran gusto, ricche di storia e bellezza. Ogni monumento ( Louvre, Notre Dame, Orsay, Saint Germain...) è raggiungibile con pochi passi. Dimitri è stato molto gentile, accogliente e disponibile. La casa offre una cucina attrezzatissima di elettrodomestici e molto funzionale. Il soggiorno è molto comodo così come la stanza da letto. L'arredamento suggerisce amore per il gusto e per l'arte. Tornarci è un desiderio.
