Ticket Prices: $24, $27, $30 Charley Pride – October 1, 2016 – 7:30pm Becoming a trailblazing Country Music superstar was an improbable destiny for Charley Pride, especially considering his humble beginnings as a sharecropper's son on a cotton farm in Sledge, Mississippi. Growing up, Charley was exposed primarily to Blues, Gospel and Country music. His father inadvertently fostered Charley's love of Country music by tuning the family's Philco radio to Nashville's WSM-AM in order to catch Grand Ole Opry broadcasts. At 14 years of age, Charley purchased his first guitar: a Silvertone from a Sears Roebuck catalogue and taught himself how to play it by listening to the songs that he heard on that radio. With boldness, perseverance and undeniable musical talent, Charlie Pride has managed to parlay a series of fortuitous encounters with Nashville insiders into an amazing legacy of hit singles and tens of millions in record sales. In addition to performing and recording new music, he enjoys playing golf and spending time with his family. Ticket Prices: $48, $53, $58 Sidewalk Prophets – October 8, 2016 – 7:30pm Integrating worship with real life - that is one of the simple truths Sidewalk Prophets has learned to live by. The hope is that their music will help others see the beauty of God all around them: "It's that whisper from God saying, Hey, this is what I've created for you. This isn't me, but this is a glimpse of what I made with you in mind.'" The intimacy and nearness of God is written into every song they perform. As different as they sound, some soft and melodic, others more rock-n-roll in flavor, Sidewalk Prophets doesn't waste a verse or a chorus. Each line is a chance to present the Gospel and let their fans know they are all part of the family. "It's one thing to say, Oh, we really care about our fans. It's another thing to say, 'We want to have this relationship with you, we're going to open the doors for you to come into our family room- you're a part of this" all the while hoping to provide a type of sanctuary for listeners, who may also find themselves in the middle of an uncertain time. These are songs they can cling to in the midst of those troubles, but also can sing in the moments of joy and celebration. Sidewalk Prophets hopes to bring songs of worship that will bring assurance in the chaos and peace in the storm, encouragement to keep going, and remind them that the something different inside of all of us is a constant and loving Savior. Ticket Prices: $18, $22 The Collingsworth Family – October 15, 2016 - 7:30pm Excitement, spiritual anointing, family-emphasis, and musical excellence are what you can expect to find when you step across the threshold of the auditorium for an Evening of Family Worship and Praise with The Collingsworth Family.

Local governments have until Aug. 7 to submit claims for reimbursement from a settlement the state has reached with two major providers of rock salt used during winter to de-ice roadways.
Attorney General Mike DeWine recently announced a settlement of $11.5 million with Morton Salt, Inc. and Cargill, Inc. to resolve allegations the companies conspired, causing state and local governments to pay higher than normal prices.
DeWine's office filed an anti-trust lawsuit against the companies in March 2012, alleging they, in effect, divided up the rock salt market in Ohio by agreeing to not compete with each other. The result was above market salt prices for about a decade, ending in 2010.
Under the settlement, Morton and Cargill will pay a combined $11.5 million, most of which will be distributed to local governments, the Ohio Department of Transportation and Ohio Turnpike Commission.
Genoa Custom Interiors, a mainstay of the village's business district is downsizing its operations.

Grosjean owns the company along with her husband, Dave.
The company main store and office at 644 Main St. will remain open.
The company is a full-service interior design business and floor business located in the heart of the Genoa downtown.
Open since 1990, Genoa Custom Interiors specializes in custom interior designs and shows off its work in unique rooms spread throughout a renovated house to help give customers a better idea of what can be done in their own homes.
The sixth annual Boomfest, Oregon's annual July 4 celebration held at Oak Shade Grove, drew a record crowd.

"It was a great event," said Oregon Councilman James Seaman at Monday's council meeting.
In addition to the expected fireworks display at dusk, three bands provided entertainment. The headliner, the Little River Band, had 13 top 40 hits in the 1970s and 80s. The hits they sang included "Lonesome Loser," "Help is on the Way," "Cool Change," "Take it Easy on Me," and "Reminiscing."
The other bands featured that day included The KGB, who sang several Motown hits, and Arctic Clam, one of the top local cover bands in the area. The event also featured a car show.
Daphne Derden, Director of Career Technology at Toledo Public Schools, admits she does not necessarily agree with all of Governor John Kasich's policies.
But when it comes to directing new initiatives for education, she believes he is "awesome."
She says the jobs are going back to the trades — and it's a different world of trades than it was in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. And, Kasich and the Ohio legislature are responding.
"Even with the emphasis from a federal perspective, a state perspective, and a local perspective, this is a great time for career technology in that we've gotten so much support and attention right now," Derden said. "Sometimes it's overwhelming, but it's been long overdue and I'm so glad this attention has come because it's good for the economic health of our region."
Oregon City Council on Monday approved the bids of Cash Services, LLC, of Northwood, to make storm sewer improvements to Jersey Road and Van Buren Avenue.
Cash Services bid $54,178 to improve Jersey Road and $33,089 for the Van Buren Avenue project. The bids were the lowest submitted for the projects. Other bids for the Jersey Road project included: Paschal Bihn & Son's Excavating, Oregon, $64,510; Salenbien Trucking & Excavating, Inc., Dundee, Michigan, $67,917.85, and Hank's Plumbing and Heating, Toledo, $64,982. For the Van Buren Avenue project, Paschal Bihn & Son's Excavating bid $34,781.15; Salenbien Trucking & Excavating, Inc., bid $40,810.21; and Hank's Plumbing and Heating bid $37,182.
"Cash Services was the lowest and best bid. They have done similar work for us. They did meet the city's best bid criteria," said Public Service Director Paul Roman.

Watching the Watchers: Preventing I.R.S. Abuse of the Tax System
Samuel D. Brunson
Loyola University Chicago School of Law
March 21, 2013
Florida Tax Review, Vol. 14, No. 6, 2013
As a result of broad outcries against the incompetence and aggressiveness of the I.R.S., Congress reined in its behavior, requiring it to focus on treating taxpayers as customers. Congress also created oversight bodies to ensure that the I.R.S. would comply with the new mandate. Though those oversight bodies face some difficulties — most notably, the unwillingness of Congress to adequately fund them — they nonetheless have proven effective at checking the I.R.S.'s misbehavior with regard to taxpayers.
Congress has not, however, been as solicitous to the tax law itself. The I.R.S. can act in ways that violate both the letter and the intent of the tax law. Where such violations either provide benefits to select groups of taxpayers without directly harming others, or where the harm to taxpayers is de minimis, nobody has the ability or incentive to challenge the I.R.S. and require it to enforce the tax law as written.
Congress could control the I.R.S.'s abuse of the tax law. Using insights from the literature of administrative oversight, this Article proposes that Congress provide standing on third parties to challenge I.R.S. actions. If properly designed and implemented, such "fire-alarm oversight" would permit oversight at a significantly lower cost than creating another oversight board. At the same time, it would be more effective at finding and responding to I.R.S. abuse of the tax system and would generally preserve the I.R.S.'s administrative discretion in deciding how to enforce the tax law.

This is a unique bottle stopper, and also attractive. I like that I don't need to "pump" the stopper as I have done with the vacuum pump. This would make a unique hostess/host gift. (Posted on 6/13/2012)

It is that time of year, when organized storm systems are few and far between. Therefore, we often have to rely on thunderstorms to help generate other storms from day to day. They accomplish this task by producing outflow boundaries. An outflow boundary is produced by the cool air flowing away from a thunderstorm, interacting with the warmer surrounding air. They act like mini-cold fronts, and can be very effective triggers for new thunderstorm development. Below is a classic example of a storm producing a substantial outflow boundary:
That narrow blue arc-line surrounding the storm is the outflow boundary. As it moves away from the storm, it could devleop additional storms. Many times when two outflow boundaries intersect or a mature storm intersects with an outflow boundary, intensification of existing storms can occur or other big storms can develop. The boundary can act as a mechanism to enhance low level shear, and cause an already severe storm to become even stronger and possibly become tornadic. It can also cause a storm that has tornadic characteristics but hasn't produced a tornado, to produce a tornado. Sometimes however, they won't do anything but produce a gust of wind when they pass through your area. So yes, sometimes they are pretty harmless. This is usually the case when moisture is lacking, and there is no fuel to get storms started. However this time of year, we have our eyes on the radar screen tracking these boundaries as they roam through Southern Colorado. They occur almost every afternoon until we get into the later part of the Summer and storm season winds down.

Whilst the clamp is slightly awkward to fit, if fitted correctly it is very secure. I have tried prying the clamp off when installed, and if there is any movement it is not poor design on the clamps behalf, but poor installation. I have used the clamp on different size wheels and have found no problem. I do use the clamp a lot and have found it quite easy to fit now, but reiterating my first point, initially a bit awkward.

I found Mr. Karnasis to be very deceptive. He actually did everything he could to divert my attention from the content of the leasing agreement while we were reviewing it. A so-called "Ex-employee: of Entrust wrote a rebuttal of another person's complaint which you will find with a little bit of exploration on this site. The rebuttal is false. Mr Karnasis is not loved by his customers. I was one of them. He simply deceives people into signing up and then disappears from sight.
I could never reach Mr Karnasis by phone after signing on. I was always directed to someone named "Jessica" in customer service. She was equally deceptive. When I complained about the higher processing rates, she blithely stated, "Oh, Eric must have made a mistake." My rates did then go down for two months, and then as though we had never had the conversation, they went up again. I cancelled their services. I had to pay $4000 to MFB to get out of the lease. When I googled for "Paradigm Direct" a year later, I found they had changed their name to Entrust. I went on their facebook page and recognized they had the same address and the same president as Paradigm Direct had had. I messaged them asking if they used to be called "Paradigm Direct" and got a return message from Jessica. I am not surprised Eric is still working for them. I'm sure he makes them a lot of money. Stay far away from them, and as far away from Eric as possible.
Interestingly, the facebook page of Entrust has been stripped of all of its content except the logo. Perhaps they are in the process of once-again changing their name.

Thes guys are professional fraudsters!!!! They lie to thier agents as much as they lie to thier merchants. I wouldn't be surprised if your agent thought he was truly helping your business. FYI thier Facebook page and website are closed becuase they did change the name once again to Mobi Squad.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

representatives today announced that the company intends to push up the launch of its
"Opteron killer" code named Tulsa.
Tulsa is
dual-core processor built Intel's 65-nanometer process and is the last
remnants of the NetBurst architecture. That is not to say however that Tulsa doesn't
still have a few tricks up her sleeve as DailyTech
reported last month.
Alistar Kemp, an Intel spokesman for the Intel's server CPU
group, claimed that Tulsa
will appear in the third quarter of 2006 as opposed to the fourth quarter
originally slated in the Intel roadmaps.
Tulsa is primarily aimed at systems with 4
to 8 physical processors and includes Intel's HyperThreading, each Tulsa CPU
contains two cores with HyperThreading support. So, for example, an eight
socket Paxville system will show 32
logical CPUs. But by far the largest feature Tulsa offers is a massive
shared L3 cache coming in both 8MB and 16MB parts as well as each CPU having a
dedicated L2 cache.
Intel is also expecting to launch a Core-based processor, dubbed Woodcrest, later this month. Woodcrest benchmarks have already surfaced at review sites, and when compared to other NetBurtst-based Xeons, Woodcrest has the advantage. However, Intel does not have any immediate plans on its roadmap to add Core-based Xeons for the 4+ socket server market.
quote: The die size? Think Wyoming.
quote: The 16MB L3 cache version should actually be MORE then twice the size of "Woodcrest."
quote: ...is this the last, and I mean the absolute LAST, NetBurst-based chip coming from Intel?
quote: Main Entry: 1ru·mi·nant
Pronunciation: 'rü-m&-n&nt
Function: noun
: a ruminant mammal
Main Entry: 2ruminant

1 a (1) : chewing the cud (2) : characterized by chewing again what has been swallowed b : of or relating to a suborder (Ruminantia) of even-toed hoofed mammals (as sheep, giraffes, deer, and camels) that chew the cud and have a complex usually 4-chambered stomach

Hi, everyone! So we finally moved to a new apartment and I feel ready-ish to attemp nap training. I am just not sure if I should.
Ollie is now 7.5 months. We co-sleep at night and I really like this arrangement. It results in great sleep for everyone. During the day he is with a nanny and she always puts him to sleep in his stroller, either walking outside or even inside. I would rather he went to sleep in his crib on a regular basis for at least one nap a day... but how to do this?
I know that nap training is harder than night sleep. I know that Ollie hasn't slept in his crib for at least 3 months now. And I also know that on weekends we are often out and about and he sleeps in a wrap on me. When we are at home, he sleeps in our bed. (My husband or I lay with him until he falls asleep and then "escape" or take a nap with him, depending.) But if we are at home, it would be much nicer if he could sleep in his crib. I would prefer this to our bed because of safety concerns. The bed is now just a mattress on the floor but still, as he grows and becomes more mobile, there is more potential for him to get in trouble if he wakes up and doesn't "call" for us.
What are your thoughts? Should I do it or is it more trouble than it's worth?

It doesn't look like this plugin is being actively supported here but it's worth a shot.
I am using WP e-Commerce and have activated the ecommerce tracking section of the plugin.
I am seeing the following database error in my apache error logs:
WordPress database error Table 'xxxxxxxx.wp_wpsc_productmeta' doesn't exist for query SELECT meta_value FROM wp_wpsc_productmeta WHERE meta_key = 'sku' AND product_id = '906' LIMIT 1 made by require('wp-blog-header.php'), require_once('wp-includes/template-loader.php'), include('/themes/xxxxxxx/page.php'), get_footer, locate_template, load_template, require_once('/themes/xxxxxxx/footer.php'), yoast_analytics, GA_Filter->spool_analytics, GA_Filter->wpec_transaction_tracking
So it seems the plugin is looking for a database table that doesn't exist.
