Pentel Retractable Writing Pens RSVP RT
Product Review-Just Write It Down!
A company called
Pentel.com sent me a 3
pack of their retractable writing pens to test out and base my review on. The pens sent were from their RSVP RT line of writing instruments. They have a large area of the pens covered
with soft grips for your comfort when writing. For people like college kids who are constantly writing that is an important factor in choosing the right pen. The pens
work really nicely on the first try which is really
important when you need something to work on the spot. You
won't be doodling figure 8's to get these pens to start
either they work right from the gate.
Pentel pens come in three colors blue, red and black. The
black is a true dark black which I like especially being
legally blind I hate it when a pen writes so light of a
color I have to struggle to see it. The red is bold and
bright and could easily become my favorite pen to use. The
blue is the color of royal blue so i really like it. It
looks decorative on the page without doing anything
special. These pens are considered to be medium ink flow
line, I noticed on my pack that they come in 8 different
colors so you will have plenty of choices the next time
you are ready to write.
so if you are wanting a fine tip pen this is not the pack
for you,but they do have fine tip products right on their
They also carry dry erase markers which I would love to
try because being diabetic I'm finding I'm forgetting way
too much stuff. So it helps if I can write things down
every day on my dry erase board to remind me of important
things I need to do like taking medications and snack
times which is a constant struggle for diabetics.

LED lighting is the lighting of the future and it is available now for your commercial building. Hospitals, distribution centers, warehouses, factories, offices, and parking areas are all retrofitting to LEDs to save energy and save money. Why? Because LEDs last longer, require little to no maintenance, and offer brighter, crisper, clearer light for a fraction of the cost of traditional lighting sources.
The dictionary tells us that consulting is "the business of giving expert advice to other professionals, typically in financial and business matters". This is exactly what we do at Future Vision Energy. We consult CEOs, CFOs, Facility Mangers, and Business Owners in specific ways to save energy and save money in their commercial buildings through specific custom LED lighting system technology.
Our services require no out-of-pocket capital expenses in most cases. 100% of our customers have increased cash flow from day one as a result of our energy efficiency consulting services. We have partnered with experts in energy efficiency funding to provide 100% no money out-of-pocket programs for our customers.
Lighting controls are a simple way to gain more efficiency and control of your lighting system. If implemented by professional lighting designers and consultants who are focused on energy efficiency, lighting controls can add as much as 50% additional efficiency to your system, saving you energy and money!
The first step to recovery is awareness! In order to solve any problem, you must first recognize that you have one. That is why electricity monitoring is such an important part of our services at Future Vision Energy. You may not realize how much money you are wasting on electricity through your lighting system unless you monitor its use. You are probably going to be amazed at how much money you're wasting through your lighting system.
We offer an Energy Savings Guarantee backed by a leading worldwide A.M. Best A+ rated insurer! This guarantee insures that you will save the energy and the money we predict (or more).

What do you have to lose?
Future Vision Energy (FVE) is not a lighting company, nor are we an electrical contractor. Our only focus is our customer's electric bill. Period. We focus on very specific ways to reduce energy expenses. We only get paid if our customers save money. Period.
In 2012, Gap contracted Future Vision Energy to reduce energy costs at their Gallatin, Tennessee distribution center with three buildings totaling nearly 3 million square feet of space. This is the largest distribution center for Gap worldwide and one of the largest distribution centers in North America. To achieve the maximum energy savings possible, we recommended an LED retrofit of all lighting. The result was a reduction in energy consumption by 8.3 gigawatt hours of electricity, making this project the largest single site energy efficiency project in the world!
• Annual reduction of 8,286,199 KWh
• Annual savings of nearly $500,000 in energy costs alone
• 17,792,401 lbs. of CO2 Eliminated Annually

Richland Place is a luxury independent retirement living center with 137 apartments and approximately 165 residents. The Health Center at Richland Place opened in 1992 and offers Skilled Nursing Care, Rehab, Intermediate Care, and General Inpatient Hospice Care. It is licensed as a Skilled and Long Term Care Nursing Facility with 107 licensed beds. Both facilities are not-for-profit organizations managed by National Healthcare Corporation (NHC) out of Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
Richland Place contracted with Future Vision Energy in 2013 to assess their energy consumption as related to their lighting systems and make recommendations to reduce their overall lighting energy costs. An LED retrofit was recommended for all of their common areas and public spaces.
Before the LED project was completed, Richland Place was spending over $53,000 per year in electricity costs on their fluorescent lighting systems. After the project was completed, this cost dropped to under $20,000 annually. In addition, they were able to save another $9,253 per year in maintenance costs related to their out-dated lighting fixtures.

They carry several lines of world class new forklift equipment, a special department devoted to used forklift trucks, a large fleet of rental forklift trucks, aerial lifts, industrial floor cleaning machines, utility vehicles, and rack systems.
They brought in Future Vision Energy in 2011 to begin a study on retrofitting their lighting. They chose between LEDs and T8 fluorescents. While the LED project cost more, they still opted to go to the best technology available: LEDs. Why? Because the energy savings, utility incentives, and long-life of the bulbs just made more sense.

Maury Regional Medical Center, the largest hospital between Nashville and Huntsville, was recognized by Thomson Reuters in 2011 and 2012 as one of the nation's Top Health Systems. In the past three years, the medical center has also been designated a Thomson Reuters 100 Top Hospital and 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospital as well as a Premier Award for Quality winner and an Excellence Award winner by the Tennessee Center for Performance Excellence.
Maury Regional Medical Center first hired Future Vision Energy in 2011 to complete an LED retrofit of their Medical Plaza and Main Building. They hired FVE again in 2012 and 2013. Yet another phase of the project is set to begin in 2014 to retrofit all of their exterior lighting to LEDs. This project saved them over $200,000 annually in lighting expenses--a 42% savings.

Marshall Medical Center is an affiliate of Maury Regional Medical Center in Columbia, Tennessee. This system has consistently been rated among the top hospitals in the country. Its commitment to cutting edge healthcare technology has influenced cutting edge energy savings technology as well. They were the first hospital in Tennessee to retrofit to LEDs.
Future Vision Energy retrofitted 2,375 4' fluorescent bulbs, 313 2' fluorescent bulbs, and 12 HID exterior lights with low-wattage LED tube lights and LEP lights, reducing the overall lighting energy costs by 47% or $25,177.09 annually. This project eliminated potential mercury hazards in a healthcare setting due to the fact that all fluorescent tubes contain the harmful element Hg (mercury) while LEDs contain no harmful substances. All of the LEDs and LEPs carry a five year manufacturer's warranty as well as a five year labor warranty, eliminating any cost related to lighting for a minimum of five years.

Store coolers, freezers, and walk-ins were retrofitted with high efficiency LED tube lamps. This not only made his food cases look better, but delivered a quality light without heat, saving the store thousands of dollars every year. How? Since the coolers and freezers don't have to work hard to compensate for the extra heat generated by the lights, they now only have to work to cool the food. The refrigeration systems run much less, saving electricity.

While FVE focuses primarily on large commercial spaces for our consultation and project management, occasionally we find a gem of an opportunity in a small office space. Such as the case with Wilda Dodson's Edward Jones Investments office in Gallatin, Tennessee. This office space is located in historic downtown Gallatin's town square just 28 miles northeast of Nashville. Originally, this building was a bank back in the 1800s and early 1900s. For the past two decades it has housed this Edward Jones Investments. While their electric bills were not large, they still spent a considerable amount of money on lighting each year. All of the existing lights were old, inefficient T12s with magnetic ballasts.
As of July 14, 2012, the U.S. manufacture or import of most T12 lamps was barred by the US government. This leaves many businesses like Dodson's in a precarious position. As ballasts and lights go out, she--and many millions like her--will be forced to retrofit the existing fixtures to another kind of light. While T8s are the option many people choose, T8s are also on the federal government's chopping block for a future ban as they did with T12s. Why waste money on upgrading to an endangered technology?
Her employees began commenting the first day about how much brighter and cheerier the office was. "It has definitely made an impact on our attitude and overall feelings in the office on a daily basis. It's amazing!" said one employee.

A Legacy of Energy Efficiency.
City Square Solar Center boasts one of the State of Tennessee's largest PV solar energy installations. They were the first in the area to promote energy efficient lighting, energy auditing, programmable thermostats, and 24/7 electricity timers. Their PV solar energy system generates more than 100,000 KWh per year with 228 state-of-the-art Sunpower 350 PV panels and 9 Fronius inverters. In addition to powering the commercial space, their system also feeds the city's electrical grid with clean power.
In keeping with his commitment to energy conservation, owner Greg Smith hired Future Vision Energy of Gallatin, TN in 2012 to provide a thorough lighting energy audit. Their recommendation included retrofitting almost 100% of their linear fluorescent lighting as well as all of their metal halide and sodium exterior wall packs. The result of the project was an annual savings of over 164,000 Kwh. This would equate to a financial savings of over $22,000 annually, but since they produce most of their own power, they actually made money on this project. How? Because now they can sell even more energy back to the city's electrical grid.
So if your building operates on alternative energy sources, LED lighting might even make more sense for you than some others. Contact us at FVE to find out more.

Since its start of operation, IMASEN has kept its progress in the field of mechatronics. They have expanded their technical network throughout the world, including Europe, America and Asia, by utilizing "technology" as a world common language. In 2012, they hired FVE to conduct an LED retrofit of their Tennessee plant in Mt. Pleasant, TN--the first of its kind in the region. Payback on this project was under one year.
A 24/7 Operation That Will Save Hundreds of Thousands.
Imasen Bucyrus Corporation hired FVE in 2012 to completely replace all of their existing 400W metal halide and T12 fluorescent fixtures with LED. The results were astounding.
All of the original fixtures were replaced with 4-lamp, 4' long T8 LED tube lights in brand new built-to-spec fixtures. The overall quality of light was improved dramatically and the energy reduction was astonishing. This project will save this Japanese company hundreds of thousands of dollars in electricity costs.

Bank Gets Big Bang for Buck.
While FVE focuses primarily on large commercial spaces for our consultation and project management, this opportunity to work with the three branches of Commerce Union Bank in Middle Tennessee offered us a great opportunity to showcase our energy conservation project expertise.
This bank operates two branches in Gallatin, Tennessee and one in Springfield, Tennessee. One of the branches in Gallatin was built to spec in 2006 as a LEED® Silver Certified building--the first in Sumner County. The other branch in Gallatin has a solar power station on its roof. All of this speaks to their commitment to energy efficiency. Due to this commitment, it made perfect sense for them to call on us to help them increase their efficiency even more.
Their employees are really enjoying the new light without all the flicker of fluorescent. Every time we go into the branch to conduct business, the tellers remind us of how much they like the new LED lighting. In addition to just liking the light output of the LEDs, they are enjoying the freedom of not having to replace lights. Before the installation, they were replacing some of their fluorescents lights at least once every other week. Now that the installation has been completed, they haven't had to replace one single light and do not expect to have to do so for at least 7 years--maybe even longer!

Bank Sees the Light with Energy Savings
First Citizens National Bank is based in Dyersburg, Tennessee but has 13 branches throughout the state. In 2013, they contracted with Future Vision Energy to retrofit one of their biggest branches in Middle Tennessee with LED and LEP lighting.
While this bank building was relatively small as compared to the projects FVE usually executes, it made a big impact of the building's energy use, reducing their lighting energy costs by over 50%. Future plans include retrofitting their other Tennessee branches.This video showcases the energy efficient lighting retrofit at the First Citizens National Bank branch in Franklin, Tennessee. First Citizens National Bank is based in Dyersburg, Tennessee and operates nearly 20 branches throughout the Southeast. The project was conducted by Future Vision Energy, one of the nation's leading energy conservation consulting and project management companies.

SWARCO INDUSTRIES INC. was founded in 1973 as a manufacturer of reflective glass beads for reflective highway safety applications. In 1979, SWARCO INDUSTRIES expanded its commitment to the highway safety market by introducing a full line of temporary and permanent marking tapes that safely guide traffic through detours, construction zones or high traffic roadways. As the demand for better pavement markings and highway safety increased, SWARCO INDUSTRIES introduced its line of durable, environmentally safe thermoplastic marking compounds in 1986. The innovative Rumbler, a unique audible warning system, was added to the product line in 1999.
In 2013, SWARCO contracted with Future Vision Energy to retrofit the lighting is all three of its plants in Columbia, Tennessee. The projected saved them almost 80% on their KWh usage, equating to an annual money savings of over $37,000. That is pretty amazing. They were able to swap out old 1000-watt metal halide canopy lights with 150-watt LED canopy lights. Believe it or not, the light output was exactly what they needed for their plant operations. It is bright, clean, and clear lighting. Of course, with LED technology, their maintenance costs just went to practically zero for the next five years at least.

July 16, 2007 - Harvest came early for a marijuana crop growing in Spring Garden, but this harvest-- valued at roughly three million dollars -- won't be going to market.
"They range from seedlings up to full grown marijuana plants with really nice-size buds," said Sgt. Joe Bologna.
On the tranquil streets of Spring Garden at North 22nd and Wilcox, neighbors heard a lot of banging and hammering coming from the home.
"We just thought people moved in to fix the house. We had no idea what was going on," said Ann Flannigan.
"We always thought it was just construction, and then to hear this it's like incredible," said Christine McGee.
Police say the entire row home from basement to attic had been converted for growing marijuana with high power lights that mimic the sun.
"It's very sophisticated. It's one of the largest I've ever seen and I've been doing this for a while," said Bologna.
The marijuana farmers even thought to install a heavy-duty ventilation system that sucked the air through vents on the roof, so people at street level would not smell the marijuana. What they apparently didn't bank on was that someone would attempt to break in this morning while they were away, and a neighbor would call police after hearing breaking glass. Ninth district officers Corey Dorris and John Hayden would ultimately stumble onto the three-story marijuana farm.
"They thought there was a burglary in progress. They had to secure the property. They tactically did that and they found& a major marijuana growing farm," said Bologna.
Within hours, police would carry out bag after bag of marijuana plants leaving neighbors stunned.
"It's amazing. I kind of wonder how I didn't know that kind of operation was going on here and all the power that must be needed to generate it. I'm shocked," said Chuck Heard.
The homeowner, who rents the property, gave his lawyer a similar reaction, but declined to comment publicly.
A warrant has been issued for the renter's arrest. While admitting no role in the farming operation, he is making arrangements to surrender to authorities sometime early next week.

WASHINGTON — Is Scott Brown, the newly minted U.S. senator and Republican Party savior, backing Carly Fiorina for Senate?
The answer is no. But you might be forgiven for thinking he is after watching Fiorina's new Web ad featuring Brown's mug in one frame, then hers in the next, with the caption, "Thank You Massachusetts. Now on to California. Join the Path to Victory."
Weeks after Fiorina took the Web by storm with the "demon sheep" video castigating rival Tom Campbell for not being fiscally conservative enough, the former Hewlett-Packard CEO and first-time political candidate is again stirring controversy with a new Internet ad.
This time she's arguably suggesting an endorsement from one of the most sought-after figures in American politics — a man who's gone, in a matter of weeks, from being an obscure state senator from Massachusetts to an oft-mentioned future candidate for president.
Fiorina aide Julie Soderlund said images are used all the time in political advertising that don't imply an endorsement, and the same is true with Fiorina's latest Web creation. She said the ad, which the campaign placed on a selection of political Web sites through Google advertising, is simply meant to convey that Fiorina wants to repeat Brown's feat in heavily Democratic Massachusetts.
"It asks the people of California to do the same thing," Soderlund said.
But the ad led one Southern California Republican blogger, Gregory Cole, whose site (http://flapsblog.com) hosted the ad, to speculate that Brown was at least raising money for Fiorina, if not giving her a formal endorsement. Brown has done neither. And for that reason Fiorina's competitors for the Republican nomination, former Silicon Valley congressman Campbell and state Assemblyman Chuck DeVore of Irvine, are crying foul.
The winner of the June primary will take on three-term Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., in the fall.
"It's crafted with this wink wink, nudge nudge that's meant to imply something that it doesn't explicitly say," said Joshua Treviño, a spokesman for DeVore. "You don't appropriate the symbol of Scott Brown and claim it as your own without validating him as a source."
Campbell media consultant Patrick Ruffini wrote on his Twitter page: "I don't know if she's claiming an endorsement, but that's up there in the Scott Brown exploitation sweepstakes."
Soderlund said that Fiorina has not asked the senator for an endorsement and did not seek permission to use his photo. But the campaign believes permission was not needed because the ad, Soderlund argued, did not imply an endorsement.
As it happens, DeVore recently approached Brown's staff about backing his Senate bid and was told "everybody and their mother is asking for an endorsement and we don't want to get involved" in a Republican primary, Treviño said, paraphrasing the response.
This isn't the first time, of course, that a politician has used a picture of a popular pol without getting a green light first.
But Brown has become such a hot commodity in Republican circles since his upset victory last month that even the whiff of him giving his imprimatur to a GOP candidate was bound to cause a stir.
Asked for his take on the ad, San Jose State University political science professor Larry Gerston said it struck him as effective, as long as Brown doesn't complain.
"It's not unusual for people running for office to make exaggerated claims," Gerston said in an e-mail. "As to accuracy, well, accuracy sometimes takes a back seat to emotional appeal in politics."
A spokesman for Brown did not return an e-mail Sunday seeking comment.

State Department Drops Terror Label From Algerian Group
The State Department dropped its foreign terrorism designation of the Algerian Armed Islamic Group, which goes by the French initials GIA.
Most of GIA's senior leaders and other remnants left to join al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, a group already labeled as terrorists, rendering the GIA's designation as moot, according to the State Department's public notice to be published in Friday's edition of the Federal Register.
The group, which formed in 1992 out of a decision by the secular military government to stop an election in which an Islamist party was expected to win, vowed to establish a sharia government to rule over Algeria. It also has a history of hitting targets in France; GIA fliers with the Eiffel Tower on them were among the reasons experts believe the iconic structure received bomb threats in September.

NTSB Finds 'Small Gas Leaks' Below Pavement Near East Harlem Blast
Tests on a cast-iron gas main running beneath the site of a deadly East Harlem explosion found "small gas leaks below the pavement," the National Transportation Safety Board wrote in a preliminary report on the March 12 incident.
The agency's brief two-page report, which concludes the agency's work in New York City, did not specify how many leaks its tests found in the main, which is 8 inches in diameter. A spokesman declined to comment.
The apparent natural gas explosion killed eight people and destroyed two East Harlem buildings.
"The investigation now pivots to Washington, D.C., as investigators test sections of pipe secured from the scene and conduct other investigative activities such as examining leak surveys and maintenance records for the gas main on Park Avenue," the NTSB said in a statement Monday.
The NTSB's citing of more than one leak in the main comes after the agency's earlier announcement that a survey identified "a leak adjacent to 1646 Park Ave., one of the collapsed buildings."
The NTSB said sections of the 127-year-old piece of iron gas main would be examined at its laboratory in Washington, D.C., as would a newer piece of plastic main installed on the block in 2011.
Only portions of service pipes, which connected the gas main to the demolished buildings, were available for examination, the NTSB said. Selected portions of these pipes passed pressure tests and will also be sent to the NTSB lab for further examination.
In addition to the gas pipes, a segment of a cracked 12-inch water main will also be sent to the lab, the NTSB said.
Officials and experts have said it was too soon to know whether the water main's rupture preceded and possibly contributed to a gas leak, or whether a water leak was the result of the explosion and building collapses.
The March 12 explosion and fire destroyed two five-story, multi-use buildings. In addition to the eight people who died, more than 48 others were injured.

PRC Applauds Court Decision Upholding California's SB 1 on Financial Privacy
Send to Printer
Privacy Rights Clearinghouse
Beth Givens, PRC Director
(619) 298-3396
Federal Law Does not Pre-empt SB 1 and Consumers Have
Stronger Protection and Control of their Financial Information
A long battle over financial privacy was decided yesterday as a U.S. District Court ruled that California's SB 1 legislation is not pre-empted by weaker, Federal standards. Californians now have more control over how financial institutions such as banks, insurers and brokerages sell and share customers' information.
According to Beth Givens, Director of the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse, "Californians finally have the control they've said they want over how financial institutions are able to disclose their account information to third parties and affiliates. We applaud the court's decision today because it indicates the true will of Californians and not the financial industry which has made significant profits from selling customer data."
Years in the making, California consumer groups, industry, and legislators hammered out a compromise with SB 1 in 2003 that even industry said was "reasonable and workable." The law enables consumers to have more control over how their financial information such as account balance, account type, name, address, phone number, and Social Security number are shared with third parties and affiliates. Before coming to a compromise, a ballot initiative spearheaded by E-Loan's Chris Larsen easily obtained enough signatures to put the issue to a vote.
SB 1 allows consumers' financial information to be shared with third parties only if the customer gives express consent (opt-in). It also says consumers can indicate that they do not want their financial information shared with certain affiliates of their financial institution (opt-out).
Though SB 1 was slated to come into effect July 1, 2004, amendments to the Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) enacted in December 2003, were targeted to pre-empt California's tougher financial privacy law, in essence creating an end-run around the efforts in California. The financial industry filed a law suit to ensure that SB 1 would not go into effect.
Today's landmark decision states that SB 1 is not pre-empted by the FCRA amendments because the financial information maintained by banks is not considered "consumer reports" and therefore does not fall under the FCRA.

Aid Arrives in Georgia
A convoy of flatbed trucks and yellow buses carrying badly needed food aid to beleaguered Georgians rumbled through a Russian checkpoint on Wednesday. Above, the distribution of humanitarian aid at Tkviabi, Georgia, under the supervision of several Russian soldiers.
Photographer Thomas Dworzak got permission to move with the yellow buses that were distributing aid. He was able to pass the Russian checkpoints and enter seven villages that he hadn't gained access to in the past few days. Above, a Russian soldier guarded a checkpoint on the main road between Gori and Tskhinvali.
When the aid arrived, a local Georgian drove to the checkpoint at Tirdznissi, Georgia, to see what was going on, while a Russian tank patrolled. Incidents of robberies and violence after Russian troops took over the area spread panic among local Georgians.
Mr. Dworzak once witnessed a car theft by the South Ossetia irregulars, which was carried out "in a calm way" as an irregular pointed his gun at a local driver. The driver immediately understood what was going on and abandoned his car. Above, a Georgian tries to move a destroyed car lying in the bush at a roadside at Tirdznissi, Georgia, as a Russian soldier watches.
Russian soldiers showed no signs of pulling back. Neither did the South Ossetian irregulars who came with them and left torched houses in their wake this past week. Above, a Russian tank moved in front of a building bombed in the air raid last week at Karaleti, Georgia.
The Russian seizure of Gori and villages in the region left thousands of people with scarce and uncertain food supplies. Local Georgians have to dig holes to get fresh water. Above, a woman went out of her house to collect water while watching her back in Karaleti, Georgia.
It was hard for Mr. Dworzak to find local residents on the streets before the aid arrived. "People were all hiding somewhere until today," he says. Above, local Georgians wait for the aid distribution at a village north of Gori.
Most of the locals fled when the battles began, but a few of them chose to stay at their houses. Above, a woman shows the shrapnel in her bedsheet at her bombed house in Karbi, Georgia.
For the people who stay, bombed cars, torched houses and scarce supplies are things they have to deal with every day. Above, a local Georgian tried to collect things from a destroyed car in Tirdznissi, Georgia.
"Nobody died of hunger," Mr. Dworzak says. "But it's always good to get something from the aid." Above, a Jewish Georgian talked with a Russian soldier in Karbi, Georgia.
Another option arrived with the aid — local Georgians could leave with the yellow buses if they wanted. Above, Georgian civilians board bus to be evacuated at Tlviabi, Georgia.
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said his troops will complete their pullback by Friday. Aid groups have said that up to 20,000 people could be permanently displaced, while Georgian officials put the number between 20,000 and 40,000. Above, locals wait for aid distribution in Karbi, Georgia.

EXETER — Selectmen voted unanimously Monday night to approve the annual agreement with the RiverWoods Company of Exeter, the owner of a continuing care retirement community that includes a nursing home, on the formula to decide how much it will pay for property taxes.
Attorney Charlie Tucker of Exeter, who represented the company at the selectmen's meeting, said the company has reached an agreement every year about the property tax formula because state laws about how the facility should be taxed "are not entirely clear."
RiverWoods owns three different campuses, The Woods, The Ridge and The Boulders, and selectmen voted to approve the proposed agreements for each one of the campuses.
Tucker told selectmen there was debate about whether RiverWoods should be taxed at the complete property tax rate, pay county and town taxes but not school taxes — the largest of the three — or not be taxed at all.
"Rather than litigate this for the last 19 years ... we have come to an agreement with the town of Exeter every year since then," Tucker said.
Under terms of the agreement, RiverWoods pays full property taxes for the independent living apartments while the nursing home is not taxed and the remaining property — like the land — is taxed at the full rate.
Last year's breakdown resulted in 78 percent of the properties paying the full tax rate while 22 percent did not pay property tax, Tucker said.
The agreements mean RiverWoods is the biggest property taxpayer in town, followed by Phillips Exeter Academy and then the Exeter Hospital properties, Tucker said.
"This is an interesting situation where three nonprofit charities are the three biggest property taxpayers ... it could only happen in New Hampshire where the property tax is the biggest part of the tax base," Tucker said.
The exact amount of the taxes owed is determined by "multiplying the tax rate times the assessed value of the land and buildings," according to the proposed agreements.

The Manabigama Kiln Plans are available for you to purchase here. You can buy just the plans, or we can come to you and build the kiln for you on your site.
Register For Classes
Saturday class for beginning and intermediate students.
Our Workshops
The small scale and quick firing time of the Manabigama make it the perfect kiln for a group wood firing workshop. In addition, our kilns are enclosed inside our heated 4000 sq foot facility.
How to find us!
The studio is open for retail sales by chance or appointment. Feel free to call or email us if yo would like to schedule a visit.
After discovering pottery in high school in the mid 70's I spent several years working as apprentice to various production potters across the United States. I discovered wood firing early in my career and have been producing wood fired pottery and building kilns every since. My pottery influences are worldwide. I especially influenced by Japanese, Korean, British and early American crock potters. From historical to contemporary, I am attracted to pottery that has a folk art look and feel.
In 2010, after spending 28 years as the owner of Monocacy Pottery in Maryland, I made the decision to relocate to Ohio and open Manabigama Pottery Center with my wife and partner Tiffany Hyland. My creativity and passion has truly been renewed by the challenges involved in building a whole new studio and introducing my work to a new audience.
The work that we are producing is diverse but we place a special emphasis on fine wood fired stoneware finished in our kilns on site. By using minimal glazing we allow the wood fires natural ash deposits and flame flashing patterns finish each piece. This natural and ancient method of producing pottery gives every pot a beautiful and unique surface.
The labor involved in producing wood fired pottery on a large scale is a very humbling experience and has taught me to appreciate every pot I takeout of my kiln. I hope that all my pots stand on their own and tell the story of my hard work and passion.


text: When this article was written (June 2012) the Montpelier Foundation was in the middle of a multi-year study of the enslaved community at Montpelier and we had completed excavations at two home sites located adjacent to the Montpelier mansion--the subject of this article. A key part of this study is to examine differences in architecture, yard organization, and material culture found at several early nineteenth-century homes of the enslaved community. So far, this study has noted radical differences in the architectural style of homes for slaves residing 50 feet from each other. These differences relate to the labor roles of the enslaved and the proximity of these homes to the formal grounds of the mansion. In contrast to these differences, material possessions indicate similarities regarding the degree of access to household goods. The complex interplay of landscape design, labor roles, and intra-community relationships can be seen in the archaeological remains of the slave community at Montpelier. This paper will describe how these patterns are visible in the archaeological record and how we are beginning to define these relationships.

BELL COUNTY, Ky (WYMT) - The Bell County Bobcats have sat a top their district as the dominant number one for the past 6 seasons. With 6 District Titles, 3 Region Championships and one State Championship, the Bobcats haven't given anyone any reason to doubt them, so what's different about this year?
"I've hear different rumors from everywhere, y'all ain't going to be no good, y'all ain't going to win 2 games y'all ain't going to win five," said Senior Wide Receiver and Defensive Back Justin Warwick.
Senior Lineman Shane Lawson agreed with Warwick, "Everybody is saying Bell's down, Bell's down and things like that, but we're going to have the same record as we do every year. We're going to win 8 or 9 ball games and we're going to be sitting in the state playoffs just like every year."
The Bobcats have 6 seniors on their roster and return just four starters on both sides of the ball.
"Bell County is Bell County. I don't think we've fallen off the map by any stretch of the means. We've made it to the Regionals the past 2 years and got beat by Louisville Central, who's 55-1 against 3A opponents. So we played them closer than anybody, so I feel like our program is as good as anyone around here," said Head Coach Wayne Mills.
With a young team, and a tough schedule the Bobcats are concentrating on taking it one game at a time.
"Just going to take a lot of hard work, people step up every year. You're going to lose seniors, but people have got to step up, they really gotta get some experience along through the season, and then come play off time I think they'll be ready," said Senior Wide Receiver and Defensive Back Ben Collett.
"I just think we need to keep getting better, you know as I said we're young up front. I think as each game comes, those kids will gain experience and as we hit district play you feel like you'll be ready to hit your stride. Every time you have young players just making sure they mature make sure they develop each and every week," said Coach Mills.
The bobcats are taking all the negative comments from the community and using it as motivation to achieve their goal.
"Definitely make it back to the Regional Championship, whoever may be waiting there for us is fine. Just make it there advance on and win the region. I've been here and ain't never won a Regional Championship, so that'd be a great success and a great compliment for me," said Warwick.
The Bobcats open up their season with South Pittsburgh out of Chattanooga Tennessee.

Three goals in the first sixteen minutes helped determine the outcome of the game early in the debut of Barcelona's new coach Tito Vilanova. Villa and Puyol returned from injuries and put their names on the scoring board.
Four minutes into the game, the Blaugranas scored on the first chance they had, off a corner kick taken by Xavi that Carles Puyol headed it in easily.
Real Sociedad would level things also scoring on the first and only chance they had on the first half. Illarramendy set up Chori Castro who arrived on the left with no man on him and shot past Valdes to the top left corner. Tied 1-1 at the 9 th minute.
Real's happiness lasted only two minutes as Barcelona reacted quickly through Lionel Messi who managed to shoot while having four defenders on him inside the box, and beat Claudio Bravo.
At minute 16 th it was the best player in the world who scored again after an assist from Tello. Messi almost had the hat trick when he was face to face with Claudio Bravo who managed to save the shot.
Barcelona continued their dominance throughout the half and at the 41 st minute, a nice building play the Cules ended up in a nice cross from Tello to Pedro who shot to the opposite post.
With a three goal difference Barcelona slowed down a bit for the second half, controlling the ball but still approaching to Sociedad's box with Messi and Xavi creating a couple chances. Meanwhile Real Sociedad was close to score their second when Chori Castro's shot went wide by inches after Barcelona had lost the ball in midfield.
David Villa went in at the 75 th minute to appear in his first competitive match since he got injured in the Club World Cup match vs Al Sadd in December last year. Eight minutes later he scored Barca's fifth goal after a pass from Iniesta who also had come in earlier in the 58 th minute.
Barcelona is the first leader of La Liga and will visit Osasuna next Sunday.

Stacks of September records
San Diego bands' back-to-school music
Jay Allen Sanford 10 p.m., Aug. 24
Sound description: World jazz with urbane cool.
RIYL: Nancy Wilson, Stacey Kent, Jane Monheit, Lady Dottie
Influences: Ella Fitzgerald, Stacey Kent, Etta James, Nancy Wilson, Eliane Elias, Aretha Franklin, Lila Downs, Patty James
Multi-lingual vocalist Allison Adams Tucker began singing while growing up in San Diego. Raised by parents who were classically trained musicians, she was singing before she learned how to talk. From elementary school on, she studied violin, flute, dance, and voice.
She went to high school in Solana Beach before moving on to college in the Midwest, attending a Christian school in Indiana where she says she was an outcast for being a punk rocker. As well as travelling abroad to Japan and Spain for a few years, she earned her BA in Linguistics and Music, and can sing in six different languages besides English. An astonishing singer, she has impeccable pitch and crystal clear diction, allowing each lyric to be heard clearly, no matter the language.
Having returned to San Diego in 2000, Tucker's debut CD Come With Me was released in 2008, co-produced by Peter Sprague (with whom she sang on his all-vocal full-length Calling Me Home). Come With Me was nominated Best Jazz Album of 2009 by the San Diego Music Awards. Her band performs as the Allison Adams Tucker Quintet, Alli and the Cats, and the Allegato World Ensemble.
She and bassist Evona Wascinski toured Europe in March 2012, followed by recording sessions the following month in Paris. Tucker also organizes the annual Brasil Jazz Festa, held each year at the Encinitas Library.
October 2013 found her embarking on a five-date tour of Japan from October 18 through October 23, with shows in Nagoya, Hamamatsu, Mito, Yokohama, and Tokyo.
She has toured the world several times and points out things haven't really improved much over the years. "In theory, booking tour dates becomes easier with each tour based on the contacts I make and the relationships I establish with venues & festival directors," she explained. "However, the jazz world is changing so fast, and the world economy has an enormous effect on the arts. I wouldn't say it's harder - it's just constantly a fierce learning curve. Like swimming 100 miles through shark infested waters, this business is not for the faint of heart."
Her 2014 album April in Paris is a direct product of touring. As spelled out in the album's title, it was recorded in Paris, following a nine date road trip through Italy in 2012. A bit of creative license changed the month of the album sessions from October, to the more romantic sounding April. While the album uses primarily European musicians, Tucker's regular bassist, Evona Wascinski is featured.
When April in Paris dropped on International Jazz Day 2014 (April 26) at UCSD's Loft, she was backed by Kamau Kenyatta (piano/sax), Danny Green (piano), Peter Sprague (guitar), Evona Wascinski (bass), Julien Cantelm (drums), and Lou Fanucchi (accordion).
Her third full-length WANDERlust was recorded in NYC under the direction of award-winning producer Matt Pierson (Brad Mehldau, Jane Monheit).

Pharma's Hiring! (In China)
The global drug industry's long push into China continued today, as Novartis said it plans to spend $1 billion to expand its R&D center in Shanghai. Dow Jones has the details.
CEO Daniel Vasella said the company's Shanghai work force will grow from 160 to about 1,000, putting it on par with Novartis's research center in Cambridge, Mass. Novartis's Basel research center will remain the largest for the Swiss company, which spent $7.2 billion on R&D last year.
"I think it will be a signal of China's rising importance in the pharmaceutical industry," Vasella told Dow Jones during a visit to Beijing, where the investment was announced. "You have to ask yourself where do you need to be down the road, and clearly it is here."
Drug manufacturing has been shifting to China for a long time. More recently, U.S. and European companies have begun expanding their R&D operations there as well, as we noted last year when Genzyme said it planned to spend $90 million on an R&D shop in Beijing.
And as Eli Lilly reminded us recently, companies continue to hire in China and other emerging markets, even as they cut positions in the U.S. and other established markets.
China Update: Novartis said today it plans to buy 85% of a closely held Chinese vaccine maker for $125 million if Chinese authorities approve the deal. Dow Jones Newswires notes in its story that China is the world's third-largest vaccine market.

Out with the Old
The first steps to a clutter-free castle are always assessing the current situation by taking a look at the contents of your garage, and ultimately deciding what should stay, and what should go. A great approach is to sort out your belongings into the three distinct piles:
1) What to keep
2) What to give-away or donate
3) What to toss or recycle
After you've cleared out what to trash and what to stash, it's time to decide how to organize and store what you're keeping, and measure your garage for the ideal garage storage solution.
Measuring Your Garage
Once you've cleared the way & cleaned up, it's time to measure your garage. With a standard measuring tape, paper and a pen, take note of the various elements of your garage. First measure the outer perimeter, then your windows and doors – Where are they located, how many are there and what size are they? Where is your plumbing and electrical located? Note the walls of your garage, their size, and any other details that are relevant to designing your garage. Use the diagram below for help with measuring.
Once you've measured out your garage, it's time to create your design by calling one of our design experts, or by using our handy Online Design Tool.
Garage123.com has all your garage storage needs covered with a wide array of high-end, affordable and fully-functional garage organization products including slatwall panels, hooks, baskets, and other wall accessories, heavy-duty steel cabinetry, ceiling storage units, garage flooring and more.

AbstractLassa virus (LASV) is the most prominent human pathogen of the Arenaviridae. The virus is transmitted to humans by a rodent reservoir, Mastomys natalensis, and is capable of causing lethal Lassa Fever (LF). LASV has the highest human impact of any of the viral hemorrhagic fevers (with the exception of Dengue Fever) with an estimated several hundred thousand infections annually, resulting in thousands of deaths in Western Africa. The sizeable disease burden, numerous imported cases of LF in non-endemic countries, and the possibility that LASV can be used as an agent of biological warfare make a strong case for vaccine development. Presently there is no licensed vaccine against LF or approved treatment. Recently, several promising vaccine candidates have been developed which can potentially target different groups at risk. The purpose of this manuscript is to review the LASV pathogenesis and immune mechanisms involved in protection. The current status of pre-clinical development of the advanced vaccine candidates that have been tested in non-human primates will be discussed. Major scientific, manufacturing, and regulatory challenges will also be considered.

Travel the Slow Road
"The traveler sees what he sees. The tourist sees what he has come to see."
~G.K. Chesterton
Slow has become a four-letter word in our accelerated culture. And yet … when it comes to travel, how can we possibly expect to truly experience a place at a breakneck pace? How can we savor a blur?
My husband and I are currently planning a mini-break. With three kids, three dogs, three cats (see a pattern developing here?), we're lucky to escape at all, but we're working toward a three-day getaway.
But as we plan, we're recalling our most memorable trips, hoping to recapture whatever made them great.
And we discovered the common denominator: In every instance that we remember as truly outstanding, we were doing something other than what we had planned … and we were taking our time.
Eco-Travelers: Help World Wildlife Fund Protect the Planet
Anyone who has ever watched a brown bear fish, or an elephant wallow in a water hole, or a curious sea lion come face to face with a snorkeler, knows that one of the highlights of eco-travel is close encounters with wildlife in natural settings.
Win a Trip Through the Great Green Travel Giveaway!
How would you like to win a 7-night Galapagos Islands cruise for two aboard an Ecoventura yacht, recognized as one of the most environmentally friendly outfitters in the islands? Imagine anchoring in turquoise bays, zipping ashore in small rafts and lazing on sandy beaches, empty but for colonies of curious sea lions and nonchalant iguanas sunning on the lava shoreline. Blue-footed boobies nest along island trails while albatross and frigate birds soar overhead. The wonders beneath the waves are just as amazing, as you snorkel with penguins and sea turtles.
Les Voyages: 5 Ways to Make Traveling Easier on Your Body
I'm back from my vacation, and what an adventure it was.
And in addition to being great, I found it completely amazing how physically exhausting a vacation can be (tour bus pick-up at 6:30 a.m., plane rides, bus rides, and scary car episodes with a French taxi driver who insisted on taking all the Corsican island curves — which, did I mention, are only one lane — at 100 kilometers an hour by looking BACK at me so that I could confirm that yes, the island was beautiful, and yes, I was completely relaxed … just not right at that moment).

Breast Cancer Health Center
Blacks' Breast Cancer Treatment Lacking
Oct. 8, 2007 -- African-American women may miss out on potentially lifesaving supplemental treatments for breast cancer that may prevent the cancer from returning.
A new study shows white women with more advanced breast cancer were more than four times more likely to take the breast cancer drug tamoxifen and three times more likely to receive chemotherapy than African-American women. These supplemental therapies are recommended after breast cancer surgery to kill any cancer cells that the surgery may have missed.
"We have seen that African-American women are not getting the optimal therapy as often as white Americans," says researcher Mousumi Banerjee, PhD, of the University of Michigan, in a news release. "Some of it has to do with socioeconomics, some with insurance status and/or access to care, but there are choice issues as well, especially with chemotherapy."
African-American women are more likely to die of breast cancer than white women. Researchers say this and other recent studies suggest that the reason why may be due to a combination of factors. For example, African-American women are more likely to be diagnosed at a later stage of the disease.
The Role of Race
In the study, published in the journal Cancer, researchers looked at the role of race and other demographic factors in the treatment of 651 women diagnosed with breast cancer in Detroit in the early to mid-1990s.
Among those whose breast cancer had not spread to surrounding tissues, the results showed no significant differences in treatment received, such as the number of white and African-American women who received breast conservation surgery vs. mastectomy.
But among women whose cancer had spread to the lymph nodes or surrounding tissue, white women were more than four times more likely to receive the widely used breast cancer drug tamoxifen than African-American women. In addition, African-American women were three times less likely to receive chemotherapy as a supplemental breast cancer treatment.
Researchers say the results suggest that culturally sensitive ways to increase use of supplemental breast cancer treatments may be needed to improve the treatment of African-American women with breast cancer.

Flag Football Rules
1. A team shall consist of a maximum of five players, a minimum of four.
2. Coin Toss: Before the start of the game, the IM supervisor will toss a coin in the presence of opposing captains, after first designating which captain shall call the fall of the coin. The captain winning the toss shall choose one of the following options:
3. Length of game: (2) 18-minute halves with a 5-minute halftime. During each half, the first 16 minutes is running time. Length of field: 50 yards = (2) 5-yard end zones and (2) 25-yard halves.
A two-minute verbal warning is given by the IM supervisor. During the final two minutes of each half, the clock will be stopped any time the play is dead. The ball will become dead when:
4. Possession: Each team is given four downs to advance the ball over the center line. If this is achieved, four additional downs are given to score.
5. Timeouts: (2) timeouts per half of one-minute in duration per team (not accumulative).
6. Kickoff: At the beginning of each half and after touchdowns or safeties, kickoff from the 10-yard line by a place kick. The kicking team must stay behind the 10-yard line until the ball is kicked. The receiving team must have a minimum of four receivers behind the center line.
7. On the kickoff, a ball that hits the ground before someone touches is not live; the play is dead.
8. Punting: Before the down, the offensive team must inform their opponents of the intention to punt.
9. A ball kicked out-of-bounds is either a foul (penalty 5 yards from kick) or rekicked. The receiving team has the choice of which penalty will be enforced.
10. Following a touchback, the ball is placed at the 10-yard line.
11. A muffed catch (touched ball not caught) is marked dead on that spot.
12. There is no rushing of the quarterback. The quarterback may not run with the ball nor hand off to a running back. Passing is the only component of offense. A pass must cross the line of scrimmage to be good.
12a. The quarterback must pass the ball within 7 seconds of the snap. The five seconds will be called out by the IM supervisors.
13. A defensive team must have a minimum of three players on the line of scrimmage.
14. The offensive line players must remain stationary for one second prior to the snap.
15. The player receiving the snap may be no more than 2 yards from the line of scrimmage.
16. If a snap hits the ground, it is dead.
17. All players are eligible to catch a pass.
18. One foot must come down inbounds for a completed pass to be ruled good.
19. Pass interference will be penalized with a first down. Pass interference constitutes an obvious attempt to impede (such as hands on the face).
20. The ball must cross the line of scrimmage for pass interference to be called.
21. No blocking with the hands, arms, or legs is permitted. Incidental
bumping may occur, but no contact can be made with the arms or hands
unless it is an obvious attempt to deflag an opponent. Should any player
gain an advantage by use of the hands, a penalty will be assessed.
22. Setting picks downfield is illegal. Screen blocking, near the line of scrimmage, is legal as long as arms and hands are held at the players' sides or behind their backs.
23. Ball carrier restrictions: It is a penalty for the ball carrier
to stiff arm, charge into, drop a shoulder, knee, or try to knock over
a defensive player at any time. This is judged like a block/charge foul
in basketball. Spinning and diving is legal. However, the ball carrier
must be in control of his/her body at all times.
24. The flag belt must be worn legally attached.
25. It is a foul for a defensive player to tackle, trip, push, shove,
or elbow the ball carrier or blocker. The runner's forward progress may
not be impeded in any way.
26. A ball carrier who has fallen to the ground with a knee down,even though not legally deflagged, is down; the play has ended. Also,if the ball touch the ground while in the grasp of a player, the playhas ended.
26a. If a player's flag has fallen off accidentally during the course of play and becomes the ball carrier, that player must be touched with two-hands to be considered officially deflagged.
27. If the defensive team commits a foul so near its goal line that they can be penalized only by halving the distance to the goal line, the object being (in the opinion of the supervisors) to consume time, it shall be regarded as a refusal to allow play to proceed. In that event, the referee shall warn the offending team once, and then if the offense is repeated, it is in the supervisors' power to award a touchdown.
28. Touchdown: 6 points. Safety: 2 points. PAT: 1 or 2 points
29. A player scoring a touchdown must be able to legally detach his belt and show the IM supervisor.
30. Mercy Rule: If a team is 17 or more points ahead when the 2-minute warning is announced for the second half, the game shall be over.
31. Point After (PAT): Ball placed three yards from the goal for 1 point or 10 yards for 2 points. The team gets one chance to advance the ball for a PAT with a pass. A PAT attempt can not be run back for points if the ball is intercepted or recovered by the defensive team. The ball would then be dead on a turnover during a PAT.
32. Overtime: if the game ends in a tie, each team shall have one series of four downs to score from the 10-yard line. If successful, the PAT may then be attempted. If the game is still tied after the first extra set of downs, this ends the first overtime. A second set of extra down is then awarded to each team. The game is scored a tie if the score remains tied after two overtimes in regular season. In the playoffs, the set of overtime downs will continue until a winner is determined.
Sportsmanship Rules: IM Rule #36 will be strictly enforced. Rosters will be checked regularly. Unsportsmanlike action will not be tolerated.

The Company Huckabee Keeps
Earlier today I noted that Mike Huckabee seemingly has no problem associating himself with fringe right-wing and Religious Right activists, regardless of how radical they may be.
Now Sarah Posner brings to our attention another connection that I had not realized: Gary Glenn, president of the American Family Association of Michigan.
As Sam Stein reports, Glenn is targeting Democratic state House candidate Toni Sessoms with robocalls that use the word "homosexual" ten times:
Liberal Democratic lawyer and openly homosexual statehouse candidate Toni Sessoms, doesn't share our values. Michiganliberal.com boasts that Sessoms is 'independently wealthy, and if elected would become the first openly lesbian state representative.' Sessoms is endorsed by the homosexual newspaper in Detroit, by Detroit's homosexual equality Michigan PAC and by the Michigan Democratic Party homosexual and transgender caucus. Sessom's campaign manager is the openly homosexual Central Michigan University faculty member who lost the statehouse race two years ago. Her deputy campaign manager was co-president of CMU's homosexual student group -- an openly homosexual candidate with a campaign run by homosexual activists. But, of course, in a district where voters strongly supported the marriage protection amendment none of this is disclosed on Toni Sessom's campaign material. With homosexual activists in the Michigan Democratic Party pushing to repeal our marriage amendment, our families deserve a state representative we can trust shares our values. Not a candidate with a hidden agenda, homosexual activist agenda, not Toni Sessoms.
Poser notes that Huckabee and Glenn have a long history and points to this video in which Huckabee positvely gushes about the work being done by Glenn and the AFA Michigan:
The following year, Huckabee provided a videotaped speech to Glenn's group's annual fundraiser, in which he called Glenn "a very special friend. . . one of the stalwart, key people who absolutely has not flinched or wavered in his commitment to pro-life and pro-family values." He continued, "If we had leaders like Gary Glenn across America, our work wouldn't be so hard. . . . [they] have been committed to maintaining a solid course for truth."

ATVs in Recapture Canyon: What Are They Fighting For?
An All Terrain Vehicle rally brought 60 ATV riders out on Saturday, May 10 to challenge the Bureau of Land Management's decision to protect Recapture Canyon in San Juan County, Utah. The BLM closed the path to motorized vehicles in 2007 in an emergency action after ATV riders attempted to widen the road and caused significant damage to 31 archaeological sites. The area is ancestral to the Hopi, Navajo, Utes, and other local tribes.
RELATED: ATV Protest Rides Through Native American Sacred Sites
There are 2,800 miles of ATV trails in the area surrounding Recapture Canyon, which is the distance from New York to Los Angeles. Of that, only 1,870 acres of that land are closed off to ATVs by the BLM. Yet that small amount of land is being fought for by ATV riders who refuse to recognize the sacredness of the area, and are instead putting their fight for state's right ahead of the respect for the history and remains of the area's people.
"There are burial grounds, human remains of the ancestors of people living and thriving there today. It is as much about preserving resources as it is about respect, and we have to respect that the canyon is a place of human remains," Megan Crandall, BLM Utah spokesperson, said, citing that Recapture Canyon holds an extraordinary amount of archaeological evidence.
Frank White, a member of the popular ATV groups Tread Lightly and Blue Ribbon Coalition, said both organizations were opposed to the ride. "I feel bad for what went on. To me they were down there to cause trouble, they wanted an incident."
White said, "Carrying guns and the flag, they were out here to cause a fight. I call them Freedom Fighters and they just don't want to be told what to do. It's embarrassing; and then on tribal land, it's just a big no-no. I don't believe motorcycles and ATVs need to be everywhere."
