The Walkin' Wheels Dog Wheelchair - the ONLY Fully Adjustable Dog Wheelchair.
A dog wheelchair can enable your dog to run and play again, get the exercise he (or she) needs, and live a happy, healthy life. Designed to help animals with hip and leg problems including degenerative myelopathy (DM), hip dysplasia, arthritis, paralysis, slipped disc, soreness, spinal and neurological problems, surgical recovery, and more.
The Walkin Wheels Dog Wheelchair is designed to fit any dog size and breed between 20 to 180 lbs. If your dog weights between 8-20 lbs, they will need the Walkin' Wheels Mini Dog Wheelchair.
A Walkin' Wheels dog wheelchair can be shipped next day, requires only approximate measurements (our cart wizard does all the work), folds flat, comes fully assembled and is adjusted, without tools, to fit your dog, or any other dog. In some cases, such as for animals under 8 lbs or over 180 lbs, some customization may be required.
- Easy to re-sell because it can be adjusted and used on any other dog.
- No precise measurements needed - Our Dog Cart Wizard does the work.
- Folds flat for easy transport. Fits in Free Tote Bag, included (not included with Mini cart)
Dog Wheelchairs help handicapped pets live long, happy, healthy lives. With a Dog wheelchair like Walkin' Wheels, your best friend can get the exercise they need and the quality of life you want them to have. Watch our Videos. Join our 30,000 member Facebook Community.

3. Manual grammar check: make sure all sentences are worded in a simple way that makes sense
4. Remove "conversational" wording: this is a raw transcript from a video which means too many sentences start with "So", use informal words like "got" when "have" should be used, or have repeat words including "like" "kind of" "really" "just" and "such as" ... these need to be tightened up
5. Reword confusing or awkwardly worded sentences and shorten them if possible. You must lookup any words or phrases you do not understand. I want the text broken up into small paragraphs of no more than 3-6 sentences each. Please only split a paragraph where it makes sense to break it up.

'Sex and the City' Fireman in Hot Water?
One of New York's Bravest landed in hot water over a sex scene in HBO's "Sex and the City." Firefighter Michael Lombardi assigned to Rescue Unit 5 on Staten Island (and, not so coincidentally, Mr. December in the 1999 Firehouse Hunks calendar), had to face his superiors yesterday to explain his role in the June 4 episode of the series, titled "Where There's Smoke." In it, his bare butt was exposed as he heated up the character played by series regular Kim Cattrall. Fire Commissioner Thomas Von Essen told New York's Daily News that he would not comment on his "discussion" with Lombardi, 38, though officials told the paper that Lombardi had received permission from the NYFD to pursue an acting career -- and that, although Lombardi got a stern talking-to, no disciplinary action is expected.

Album Review
This entry into the Japan-only
Premium Best
series highlights the recordings of composer/performer
Laura Nyro
. Unlike other single-CD North American compilations, this 16-track disc gives sufficient time to her tragically underappreciated post-
recordings. Several of these titles are not even available on CD in the States, which is perhaps correlated to the seeming lack of interest. There are actually numerous advantages to this collection -- not the least of which is the artist-sensitive track list. Presumably the
Premium Best
series is aimed at the casual enthusiast, as the hardcore collector would either already own the contents or buy it anyway if they were a completist. By including seminal album sides such as the imperially haunting "New York Tendaberry" and "Upstairs by a Chinese Lamp," a more accurate overview of
's career is presented here. There is a generous sampling from
The First Songs
More Than a New Discovery
), including many of her signature compositions that became international hits for other artists. "Wedding Bell Blues" and "Blowing Away" are key entries from
the 5th Dimension
. "And When I Die" became a hit for
Blood, Sweat & Tears
and likewise "Stoney End" is arguably best remembered by the
Barbra Streisand
cover version. Two of the most memorable inclusions in
Eli and the Thirteenth Confession
followed suit by becoming successful hits for
Three Dog Night
("Eli's Comin'") and once again
the 5th Dimension
("Stoned Soul Picnic"). Representing her acclaimed follow-up long-player,
New York Tendaberry
, are the previously mentioned title track as well as the single version of "Save the Country," which was uncharacteristically cut in Los Angeles with
Bones Howe
producing a
Hal Blaine
-led Wrecking Crew. By comparison,
's final seven albums may not seem as amply represented. However, the tracks from the remainder of her catalog, at the very least, signify these timeless entries. Both
Gonna Take a Miracle
are represented by their respective title tracks, while the 1976 concert recording
Season of Lights
("Sweet Blindness"),
("Mr. Blue"),
Mother's Spiritual
("To a Child"), and
Walk the Dog & Light the Light
("A Woman of the World") are embodied by their individual submissions. Once again the Japanese beat U.S. releases to the punch.

In the city of Kalamazoo on a typical day, 18 million gallons of water is pumped to homes, businesses and industries. That has jumped to 32 million gallons and on some really hot days 45 million gallons.
"We're seeing a doubling," said Bruce Merchant, Kalamazoo public services director. "At this point we're doing OK with water usage.
The city has no immediate plans for enacting sprinkling bans or limited usage of water, though Merchant said he has talked to a couple of west side neighborhood associations wondering if they should consider encouraging residents in their area to sprinkle on odd days only.
Portage water pumping has also doubled, said Chris Barnes, director of transportation and utilities. The typical day's water pumping is 4 to 5 million gallons. In June, the typical daily pumping was 10.5 million gallons. In June 2011, the average daily water pumped was a little over 7 million gallons.
While encouraging Portage customers to conserve water usage as much as possible, the city has no immediate water-reduction plans.
In Vicksburg, a record amount of nearly 13 million gallons of water was pumped in June, said Matt Crawford, village manager. That compares to 9 million gallons in June 2011 and 8.7 million gallons in May this year.
"Since we've been keeping records in 1989 this is the highest pumpage we have had in Vicksburg," Crawford said of the June 2012 water pumping.
The village's water system, which has had several improvements in recent years, is handling the increased water usage, he said, but "it's been a rough go."
Vicksburg also has no immediate plans for water bans or sprinkling limitations but has urged residents to conserve as much as possible.
Amy Roth, director of public services for Three Rivers, said that water usage has gone from a typical 700,000 to 800,000 gallons a day to 1.5 million gallons. But there is no concern for a shortage at this point.
"We have plenty of capacity in the system," she said, adding that Three Rivers, like other area communities, draws on its drinking water from the groundwater aquifer system.

The St. Charles Parish Council has sustained a veto of a law that would have kept parish employees from revealing the identities of people complaining about code enforcement violations.
Parish President V.J. St. Pierre Jr. said at Monday's meeting that he opposed the measure by Councilman Paul Hogan, which would have forbidden parish employees to reveal the names of the complainants unless the requestor filed a public records request.
Code violations involve issues such as tall grass, deteriorating housing or construction that doesn't conform to the parish's building code.
Hogan described the measure as a way for residents to call attention to an eyesore without causing a feud between neighbors and said that he is aware that in at least three instances the subject of the alleged violation was given the complainant's identity.
"It's to keep peace with the neighbors. It's not hard. It's not overburdensome," he said. "Not everybody knows that they can ask to remain anonymous."
But St. Pierre said residents already have the right to file anonymous complaints.
"Throughout my administration, I have preached transparency. Now you want me to take disciplinary action against my employees for telling the truth," he said. "If you don't want to give your name given out, all you have to do is say you want to remain anonymous."
Hogan, who said he takes complaints from constituents and passes them on to code enforcement officers without revealing their names, and Carolyn Schexnaydre cast the only votes to overturn the veto.
Council members Traci Fletcher, Terrell Wilson and Clayton "Snookie" Faucheux Jr., who originally voted for the measure, voted to sustain the veto.

Bootleg blocker
Movie pirates beware: Philips reckons it can ruin camcorder footage taken in
cinemas that use video projection technology instead of film. At the moment,
pirates steal footage simply by pointing camcorders at the screen and
synchronising the frame rate of the recording with that of the film. But, says
Philips, with video projectors the frame rate can be continually changed,
wrecking any recordings (WO 99/67950). If there is fast action on screen, the
projection rate can be increased above the normal 24 frames per second. If a
scene is slow-moving, the rate can be reduced. The audience won't notice any
difference but the pirate copy will flash and blur as the camera and projector
move in and out of synchronisation.

Because the SPEAR sky survey sweeps from the North Ecliptic Pole to the South Ecliptic Pole, this region receives a significantly higher total exposure than other parts of the sky. We present FUV spectra of this region and discuss the contributions to these spectra from hot interstellar gas, stellar radiation scattered by dust, unresolved stars, and molecular hydrogen fluorescence.

At Vijayaloka Buddhist Retreat Centre we try to put into practice ideals that go beyond practicalities. Our goal is not just to improve our facilities for our own needs, but to benefit humans, the environment and all living beings beyond our immediate community and beyond our lifetime.
We can't save the world, but we can certainly change it. In fact, we continuously change the world around us whether or not we intend to. The Buddha taught that all things arise in dependence on conditions, and cease when these conditions cease. This is true of everything from rainbows to our bodies to mountains. We live in an ever-evolving web of conditions, and our actions affect the way these conditions evolve.
Modern environmental science is just beginning to discover the extent to which this teaching is true, and public opinion is gradually adapting to these discoveries.
With this in mind, we wanted to reduce our demand on town water, but still have the benefits of a reliable and plentiful water supply:
In a dry area adjacent to bush-land, a reliable water supply is not just a convenience. It can make the difference between life and death, and help save buildings and other property.
For humans, wildlife and the environment, green vegetation is an important source of wellbeing, so we wanted to have a healthy garden without imposing on Sydney's diminishing dam waters.
For all these reasons we sought and received a Commonwealth Government Community Grant to help fund the installation of a system of rain water tanks. The largest tank, on the edge of the bush, is dedicated for fire fighting. We hope that in the event of a bushfire it will make a difference to the fire fighting effort in the surrounding area. The remaining three tanks, with a pump and filtration system, will provide high quality water for the kitchen, bathrooms and garden.
The project is now complete, and since early 2008 Vijayaloka has been nearly self sufficient for water.

A horn quartet from New York, whose musicians have studied at Juilliard and other prestigious schools, is coming to Youngstown Tuesday for a guest artist recital on the Dana School of Music concert calendar.
That sentence conjures up images of tuxedos and floor-length gowns and a repertoire drawn from the masters.
Not this time.
Article Photos
Quartets like that don't have a musician who goes by Attila the Horn.
Genghis Barbie has been defying expectations since the idea was hatched about three years ago - at a bachelorette party.
''We were all hanging out, young freelance horn players in New York City,'' said Danielle Kuhlmann, who performs under the name Velvet Barbie. ''We were all friends and finding four horn players that get along is not easy. The idea sort of came after that. It was my idea, I guess. It just popped into my head.''
Fact Box
WHO: Genghis Barbie
WHERE: Trinity United Methodist Church, 30 W. Front St., Youngstown
WHEN: 7:30 p.m. Tuesday
HOW MUCH: Admission is free.
For more information, call the Dana School of Music at 330-941-3636.
Genghis Barbie was born. And like any pop act, the foursome went about crafting an image.
''(In the beginning), Our friends said we had more photo shoots than concerts,'' Kuhlmann said.
There's Velvet Barbie (Kuhlmann), Cosmic Barbie (Leelanee Sterrett), Freedom Barbie (Alana Vegter) and Attila the Horn (Rachel Drehmann). Each of the women picked her own name except for Freedom Barbie (the group gave away a T-shirt at one of its first concerts to the audience member who suggested the best name).
''We all grew up with the Spice Girls,'' Kuhlmann said. ''We thought it would be fun to have stage names, let loose and be a persona instead of it being tied to who we really are.''
It may sound like a gimmick, but the Barbies have impressive resumes. Kuhlmann studied at Juilliard and Rice University, and Vegter also is a Juilliard grad, while Sterrett has degrees from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Yale School of Music and Drehmann has degrees from University of Minnesota and the Manhattan School. Kuhlmann didn't start out on the French horn.
''I used to play flute and a lot of other instruments, she said. ''I don't know if I thought there were too many flute players, but someone suggested the horn, and once I started playing it, I really fell in love with it. It's something that came to me kind of randomly, and now I can't imagine playing anything else.''
When the Barbies aren't together, its members can be heard playing with the New York Philharmonic and the Seattle Symphony, touring with David Byrne or playing in traditional quartets.
However, none of those groups play ''The Thong Song.''
Sisqo's ode to bikini bottoms - or bottoms in bikinis - was one of the first arrangements Kuhlmann crafted for the group (several videos of Genghis Barbie playing it can be found on YouTube). And it turns out to be surprisingly melodic.
''It's not just playing the 'Thong Song','' she said. ''It becomes our own music after awhile. You put four horns together, it's not going to sound like a pop song.''
The group has tossed everything from Queen's ''Somebody to Love'' to Lady Gaga's ''Bad Romance'' onto the Barbie for horn-driven arrangements. The band always is on the lookout that hot pop single that will lend itself to the group's style, but Kuhlmann said they mostly pick songs they like.
That means ''Call Me Maybe'' didn't get the call, but Kuhlmann is working on an arrangement of Taylor Swift's new single, ''We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.''
''I picked it because I like it, and it's going to work really well,'' she said.
Expect to hear a mix of contemporary and classical pieces when the quartet performs Tuesday at Trinity United Methodist Church as well as songs from its next album, which will be a collection of lullabies.
The group is playing a lot of colleges on its current tour, and the musicians have to juggle Genghis Barbie dates among their other commitments.
''We love this group so much, we're willing to put as much time in as we have. This is sort of our thing. We do all of the book, all of the arranging. We do everything.''

Use the dumbells as a doorstop and start the Primal Blueprint Fitness. Move slowly, sprint and either lift heavy things (body weight included) then get down on the floor and play with your toddlers that will wear you out.
...so what do I do with them? Just jank 'em over my head? In front? Shoulders up, down, back or fore?
Somebody take pity on me and break it waaaay down, I've always been afraid to mess up my back with weights and I cannot remember numbers.
Or is 10 lbs not something to bother with? Where does weight lifting start? I'm 5'8, fairly strong in the arms from hauling toddlers around but with begnin lower back issues. Can't pay for the gym on top of all the grassfed meat.
I can be smart enough otherwise, but workouts are not something my brain can wrap itself around.

Eating primal is not a diet, it is a way of life.
Don't forget to play!
What I do with mine is this (and I don't care about all the people who say these are dumb exercises because they've done a lot for me):
Bicep curls
- Do them all the way or do them half way up and then half way to all the way up.
- Alone or combine with bicep curls
- Lean over with back flat and knees bent while you are doing it, like you are skiing and the dumbells are your ski poles.
- Probably best to look that one up because I'll never explain it right. It's supposed to work your back.
Overhead presses
- Arms bent at 90 degrees, hands up, press upwards but don't let your shoulders press against your ears and don't hold the weight forward of your body.
Not sure what this one is called
- Hold one dumbell with both hands over your head and behind your back. Lift up and down.
- Good way to practice doing this right before you get to heavier weights.
Planks with rows
- Do a plank on knees or elbows and then row each arm up holding the dumbell
I think that's all I do with mine thus far. I bet you could come up with more if you think of it. Like maybe squats or lunges and just hold the dumbells so you have extra weight.
Female, 5'3", 50, Max squat: 202.5lbs. Max deadlift: 225 x 3.
i do the waterbury complex off here with 6kg dumbells.

You could try dumbbell snatches. But in all honesty, I would say chuck them and do bodyweight exercises that would do you lots more good without limitations on the types of movements you can do if you had to hold those tiny things.

If you were beginning to feel that too much time had passed since you last saw dancing bearded rabbis on television, then fear not, because West Coast Chabad, the organization that sponsors the "L'Chaim" telethon, is broadcasting a special Chanukah party on KCAL-TV Channel 9 each night of Chanukah.
"Chanukah, the Miniseries," two-minute segments directed by Stephen Kessler, is aimed at inspiring viewers to participate in Chanukah by watching the menorah being lit.
The program has two parts. In the first part, Rabbi Boruch Shlomo Cunin, director of West Coast Chabad, will say the blessings and light the menorah. Each night there will be a different celebrity with him, for example, Darryl Sabara of "Spy Kids," who will also give a personal message about the Chanukah experience.
Then the Hollywood Klezmer Band will play, and a group of students, immigrants, community leaders, celebrities and, of course, bearded rabbis, will kick up their heels and dance the hora in celebration of the Festival of Lights.
"This is a project that takes the concept of pirsumei nissah, spreading the miracle of Chanukah to the next level," said Rabbi Chaim Cunin, the group's public relations director. "Years ago, people felt that Chanukah should be kept in the house, but thank God it has turned into this [public] beautiful thing."
"This show is a good way to expose people to the menorah experience," he said. "You have to imagine that if they had television 1,000 years ago, someone would have done it then."
"Chanukah, the Miniseries" will be shown sometime between 4:15 p.m. and 4:25 p.m. nightly from Nov. 29-Dec. 6. The program will also be simulcast on AskMoses.com.

Jim Hudson preaches educational outreach and economic development at the Hudson Alpha Institute.
By Kevin Davies
May 19, 2009 | While the spotlight on economic development in biotechnology is firmly on Georgia this May, as Atlanta plays host to BIO, there are exciting happenings just across the border in northern Alabama. According to various magazine surveys, Huntsville, Alabama, is one of the more desirable places to live and find work in these economic tough times. That goes for life scientists too, thanks in no small part to the efforts of Jim Hudson.
For a decade or more, Hudson ran Research Genetics, a supremely successful molecular biology service company in the 1990s that helped spur a golden age of gene discovery, which was eventually acquired by Invitrogen in 2000. Hudson and a close friend, whom he prefers not to name, decided to create "an institute that would embody that spirit of collaboration." The governor of Alabama, Bob Riley put up $50 million to match the co-founders investment, and the Hudson Alpha Institute was born—the cornerstone of the 150-acre Cummings Research Park Biotech Campus.
The research operation is fairly modest for the time being, with five principal investigators led by former Stanford University genome center director Rick Myers, but Hudson expects the number to double or triple in the coming years.
What makes the Hudson Alpha experiment especially interesting is that it is also a catalyst for economic development and educational outreach. Since the end of 2007, the institute has been a hub for biotechnology entrepreneurism, providing a home for at least a dozen start-up companies. "We have a number of biotech companies in the same building," Hudson explains. "They all eat at the same place, go to joint seminars, have brain-storming sessions, etc."
"Boosting economic development—that's the mission," says Hudson, at least when it comes to the genomics part of life sciences in Alabama. "Genomics is a paradigm that's uncomfortable to a lot of people, because it involves collaboration." Young investigators are often encouraged to prove they can do independent research, he says, but, "We look for people that understand the value of collaboration. We want people that are entrepreneurial in nature, that want to see their ideas wind up in the clinic, and potentially want to benefit financially from that as well." Myers, he says, "is not especially entrepreneurial, but he's not opposed to the idea!"
Many of the start-ups sharing space with the institute got their start when Invitrogen closed the Research Genetics site, prompting many employees to launch their own companies. One of those companies, Open Biosystems, picked up where Research Genetics left off and is now part of Thermo Scientific.
Another former Research Genetics spin-out is Applied Genomics (AGI), which was based on collaboration with Stanford microarray pioneer Pat Brown. AGI designed hundreds of antibodies to complement Brown's gene expression studies. MammoStrat is a diagnostic test that uses five monoclonal antibody biomarkers and a diagnostic algorithm to stratify breast cancer metastases, similar to Genomic Health's gene-based test. Expression Genetics (EGN) is enrolling patients for a gene therapy trial in ovarian cancer, based on a novel plasmid transfection reagent.
The third leg of the Hudson Alpha Institute's mission is educational outreach. "Everyone talks about it; we're really doing it!" says Hudson. The institute hired Neil Lamb from Emory University, who has developed a genetics course for middle schoolers that is used statewide, with a high school module following suit. A new conference center will handle demand for various adult education courses that are being offered.
A software company called Digital Radiance provides interactive teaching tools to students using video game technology. It was originally developed as another educational tool, but Hudson says a consultant got so excited by its potential that it was spun out as a new company.

But let's not forget: in a comic book that came with the first Sonic 1, it was explained that, in first, Dr. Robotnik was a good doctor called "Ovi Kintobor", with a hedgehog as a puppie.
Then, something went very bad in his experiments, and then he was turned into the mastermind of evil, Dr. Robotnik, and started creating robots from the animals he captured. But, what makes things worse, also makes things better. Sonic, the lightspeeding hedgehog was also created, and swore to stop the evil schemes of Robotnik.
As far as I can remember, of course.

I don't remember Robotnik being mentioned in Sonic 06, but if it was mentioned I doubt very much it was intentional, given how rushed that game was, especially when it came to story and dialogue (in one case, theres a line of dialogue and you can actually hear someone walk into the sound studio and say something like "One more time please" and the voice actor then says the line again!)
But the concensus seems to be, that at some point during Sonic Adventure 1, Western Robotnik officially had the name change to Eggman, whilst it started as a mocking nickname (well for the western market) he quickly takes it as his own name.
I think though, that the only time you'll hear the name Robotnik now is when Sega produce the classic merchandise that's been popular lately, and then it'll only be for the western market. There is a small chance that "Robotnik" might appear in the new game "Sonic Generations" but if he'll be called "Robotnik" that remains to be seen.
Side Note: Robotnik was a word that was first used during the publication of a Russian book named "Robotnik" literally translated it means worker... however... the significance of this book... it was about mechanicalising the modern workforce so they would be more efficient at their jobs... or... turning people into robots in order to make them work harder for longer.
And people think that Sega are lazy when making up names.
However, the Fleetway comic book is slightly more accurate... but not for the reasons people think.
Shortly AFTER Sonic 1 came out (remember, Eggman is being used in Japan and robotnik is being used in the west) But BEFORE fleetways Sonic the comic came out and any other media. Sega of America comissioned a comic which is the good old Kintobor origin story... then they gave the comic to fleetway and told them to base their comic off that, which is why issue 1 is almost a word for word, picture for picture copy of it...
However... Japan also had it's version of an origins comic, and it came out at almost the same time as the America publication...
There lies the problem...
"Which is official? As both are official.
But whats quite awesome is that this Japanese comic has the following line
Badnik: **** Off Sonic!
Sonic: *Spin attacks the badnik* **** OFF YOURSELF!
Only... their version isn't censored... and yes it's official.

Ovi Kintobor met a BROWN hedgehog called Sonic. Sonic was fast, very fast, and Kintobor invented Super Sneakers that made him even faster. The result was that Sonic broke the sound barrier, blew up the testing machine, and magically turned into the cool-blue character we now know.
In an unrelated incident, Sonic and Kintobor decided to have lunch, finding only a single rotten egg in the fridge. Kintobor carried the egg to his lab, where he tripped on a cable and crashed into a computer terminal. Once again, weird explosions took place, and Ivo Robotnik was born.
I loved Sonic The Comic. I miss it so much!

Thanks for all of the good info. I had an SNES growing up and never owned a Genesis, so I always wondered too why he was first called Dr. Robotnik and then later he was called Eggman. This thread now cleared it up.

As other people said, I'm pretty sure the whole Dr. Robotnik/Dr. Eggman thing is just a matter of what he was called in the US and in Japan. Kinda like how Princess Toadstool later became Princess Peach once Super Mario 64 came out.
Some other interesting little-known facts:
- Dr. Robotnik's original character design was based off of Theodore Roosevelt combined with an egg shape.
- The purple "water" in Sonic 2's Chemical Plant Zone is known as "Mega Mack." In the Fleetway Editions comics, it was a chemical designed by Robotnik and another scientist named Megatox (who later became consumed by it and turned into a monster) to poison Sonic. It also appears in the Scrap Brain Zone - Act 2 stage in Sonic 1, and in some of the "bad future" stages in Sonic CD.
Personally, I wasn't aware of the Fleetway comics... I always thought "Sonic comics" referred to the Archie ones that I grew up with. It's always difficult trying to figure out what's considered canon and what isn't... @_@

There has been no official confirmation or anything to suggest he is based on Theodore Roosevelt. Whilst there is a resemblence, it's just that, a resemblance. The wikipedia page for Sonic characters tends to be completely made up in most cases, you're much better off looking at Sonic Retro for Sonic based sources.

Demolition work on an eyesore Berwick pub that will pave the way for 16 flats for older people will start later this month.
Four Housing's £1.9 million plans for the Elizabethan on North Road are scheduled for completion early next year.
The flats will be designed to meet the Homes and Communities Agency's 'Housing Our Ageing Population' criteria. This means they are designed specifically with the needs of older people in mind.
Each of the apartments will include generous internal space with multi-purpose areas, plenty of natural light, a balcony or patio, shared external space, car parking and ample storage for mobility aids. They will be designed to be energy efficient to keep energy bills to a minimum.
Dawn Keightley, group director of operations, said: "Four Housing entered into a contract with Gentoo Construction on January 27. As a result, physical works at the site of The Elizabethan will start in early February.
"Subject to final service disconnections, the demolition will commence at the end of February and will take approximately seven weeks. The estimated competition date of the project is early 2015.
"Once complete, the scheme will provide 16 two-bedroom apartments for older people. The apartments will be spacious and benefit from plenty of natural light. Each will have a private balcony and will be accessible by a lift.
"This is a positive investment in the area, providing affordable homes that will enable older people to live full and independent lives."
The plans were approved by Northumberland County Council in October after members heard there was a danger that £350,000 funding for the scheme from the Homes and Communities Agency might be lost.
Berwick Town Council only withdrew its objection at the eleventh hour, overturning an earlier decision of its planning committee which had concerns about the scale of the development and parking congestion.

Taylor Hicks has settled a lawsuit he'd filed to force a Nashville producer to stop selling songs Hicks recorded before his American Idol victory.
According to court documents filed Tuesday in a federal court in Hicks's hometown of Birmingham, Ala., the singer won possession of the master recordings of the songs, which been for sale on iTunes, the Associated Press reports.
In exchange, Hicks agreed not to pursue further legal action against producer William Smith. No money will change hands under the agreement, which Hicks's attorney Joe Leak described as "amicable."
Hicks filed suit earlier this month, claiming Smith tried to profit by selling three songs that the two wrote and recorded together: "The Fall," "Son of a Carpenter" and "In Your Time." Hicks said Smith lacked the rights to the music.
Smith, however, claimed he had signed contracts with Hicks, and that he'd released the songs mainly to help fend off critics' bad reviews of Hicks's single, "Do I Make You Proud," released after he won Idol in May.
Two of the songs were briefly for sale on iTunes, but Smith and Leak agreed that few if any copies were sold before the songs were removed at Hicks's request.
Of the settlement, Leak said, "We were primarily just making sure that Taylor had the rights to the music."

NY Year Round Water Park | All Wet, All Fun, All Year: Six Flags Indoor Water Park In Lake George!
Whether you want to get wet to beat the heat in the summer, or you want to take a dip to get the chill out in winter, this Upstate NY year round water park fits the bill!
When the snow is blowing and the mercury drops, the Six Flags Great Escape Lodge and Indoor Water Park in Lake George is O.P.E.N.! On frosty and snowy winter weekends when it's freezing outside, kids think it's the coolest thing ever to be splashing around in the pool (because it is!), riding the waves or speeding through the waterslide tubes.
The indoor water attractions at Six Flags Lake George have everything needed for a perfectly exciting day for everybody:
- hydro blasters
- water fountains and showers
- wave surfing
- Tak-it-Eesi-Creek is tubing fun for the little ones
- Avalanche is an indoor white-water ride for thrill seekers!
Playing in the water park during winter is a completely different experience than in the summer. We had a blast just taking it easy and watching the snow fall from inside while we were all warm and toasty and playing in the water! The best part is that there is always something for everyone to do – just the right activities for all ages in the group. You can see some of the waterpark attractions in the indoor water park video.
It's easy to check the water park calendar – just roll your mouse over your selected date in the calendar to see the hours for a specific date at the resort!

From the first minute, you could tell that Peter Asher's show was going to be much different than just about anything that's been seen in Buffalo over the past few decades.
As Asher – "Peter" of the Peter & Gordon vocal duo that had some huge hits in the 1960s – hit the stage with his band, one of the funniest men in the world suddenly appeared on the big video screen just above their heads.
It was Asher's friend, Eric Idle of Monty Python fame, reading a funny introduction, calling Asher "one of the greatest things in the entire universe."
The video image of Idle then interrupted the band as members started to play their first song.
"Where's Gordon?" Idle demanded to know.
"He's dead!" Asher yelled up toward Idle.
"He's the only one I liked!" Idle exclaimed.
The exchange was the first of many special moments in a two-hour show that featured nostalgic '60s music, audiotapes and videotapes, and fascinating stories about Asher's interactions with a wide range of famous figures, ranging from the Beatles and the Rolling Stones to Ed Sullivan, Jackie Gleason and Sam the Sham & the Pharoahs.
Attending this show at the wonderful Sportsmen's Tavern was like sitting in the living room with a long-lost buddy, hearing about the old times and catching up on stories missed over the past 48 years.
The music was fine. Asher, 68, is a good – not great – singer, and he seemed to be nursing a cold. But he and his band had the audience singing along with enjoyable renditions of songs that were hits for Peter & Gordon, Badfinger, the Beatles, Buddy Holly and other artists.
What made this show really special was Asher's storytelling. The British singer really has had an amazing life, touched by one meeting after another with the world's most famous entertainers.
A small, nondescript-looking fellow with an impish smile and gentle wit, Asher had the rapt attention of his audience as soon as he started telling the tales of his career.
A lot of his stories revolved around his friendship with Paul McCartney, the Beatle who was once engaged to Asher's sister, Jane. McCartney lived for a while in the Asher family home in London. He spent a lot of time with Asher, writing three big hits for Peter & Gordon, talking music with Asher and welcoming Asher into his band's inner circle.
At one point, Asher showed McCartney's hand-scrawled lyrics to "World Without Love" on the video screen. He then played a brief audiotape of McCartney singing the song for him.
"I just found this old tape about a month ago, and this is the first time I've ever played this anywhere," Asher said.
He later talked about the Indica art gallery, a business he ran with two friends in London back in the '60s. One night, the gallery hosted an art exhibit by an offbeat Japanese artist. Asher invited a bunch of his music friends, including the Beatles, to the exhibit's opening night.
One of the Beatles – John Lennon – fell in love that night with the offbeat artist, a lady named Yoko Ono.
"Some of the more cynical people have accused me of indirectly breaking up the Beatles by helping introducing John to Yoko," Asher said.
That's really not fair, Asher said, adding that he likes Ono to this day and does not blame her for the Beatles' breakup.
The singer talked about the great times that he and his duet partner, the late Gordon Waller, had touring America in the '60s as part of the British Invasion. They appeared on all kinds of TV shows, including Shindig, Hullabaloo, the Dick Clark Show, the Jackie Gleason Show, the Red Skelton Show and, most famously, the Ed Sullivan Show.
Sullivan was "quite aloof," Asher recalled, but after he and Waller finished their song, Sullivan held out his left arm, a signal for Peter & Gordon to walk over to him and receive his congratulations.
"It was the only time Ed Sullivan said anything to us the whole time we were there," Asher said.
He and his excellent band – keyboard player Jeff Alan Ross, bassist Bill Cinque, drummer Steve Aho and guitarist Brian Pothier – played two Peter & Gordon hits with Waller's video image singing with them. It made for some poignant moments.
The band played 14 songs. Highlights included the McCartney songs "Woman," "World Without Love" and "Nobody I Know," the folk song "500 Miles," Holly's "True Love Ways" and Badfinger's "Day After Day," featuring a nice vocal from Ross, who often tours with the modern version of Badfinger.
Asher told some fun stories about his friendships and working relationships with James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Elton John, Mick Jagger and other musicians. He won three Grammy awards as a record producer for Taylor, Ronstadt, comic Robin Williams and others.
He also told stories about a few people he didn't like, including the Beatles' former business manager, Allen Klein. Asher showed a hilarious piece of video featuring the late John Belushi playing Klein.
As the show neared its end, Asher told about the time McCartney and Lennon were working on a new song on the piano in the basement of the Asher home. McCartney called to Asher to come downstairs and hear it.
It was called "I Want To Hold Your Hand," and eventually, it became one of the biggest hit songs in rock music history. There in the basement, McCartney and Lennon played an early version for Asher. McCartney asked him what he thought about it, and Asher told him it was "very good."
Asher said he sometimes cannot believe how his life has been filled with experiences like that one.
"I was in the right room at the right time," he said. "I was lucky. ... I still am."

Tailpiece, or The Bathos, published on 17 April 1764, six months before his death on 26 October, was Hogarth's last print and self-proclaimed finale. In an advertisement in the St James's Chronicle for 14 April 1764 he announced: "it may serve as a tailpiece to all the author's engraved works when bound up together." It is a bleak, pessimistic memento mori for the artistic, political and cultural worlds, as Hogarth found them in mid eighteenth-century England, comparable in tone and urgency to Pope's apocalyptic ending to The Dunciad, Book IV, published twenty years earlier in 1743 (see separate entry). Like Pope, Hogarth had come to feel, at this late stage in his life, that Chaos's "dread empire" …

I Can't Get Started
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (November 2010) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
"I Can't Get Started" (also known as "I Can't Get Started with You" or "I Can't Get Started (with You)") is a popular song, with lyrics by Ira Gershwin and music by Vernon Duke (1936), that was first heard in the theatrical production Ziegfeld Follies of 1936 where it was sung by Bob Hope. Hal Kemp and his Orchestra recorded it at that time and it had a bit of popularity, rising briefly to 14th place on the recording charts. Probably the three most popular vintage recorded versions are those of Bunny Berigan, Billie Holiday and Frank Sinatra.
Music and lyrics[edit]
"I Can't Get Started" is the plaintive song of a man who has achieved and won everything he could hope for, except the attention of the woman he desires. The rarely heard verse explains the situation ("I'm a glum one, it's explainable, I met someone unattainable, life's a bore, the world is my oyster no more...all the papers where I led the news, with my capers, soon will spread the news, Superman turns out to be flash in the pan.") It is most exceptional in that Gershwin's lyrics ("I've flown around the world in a plane ... Settled revolutions in Spain ... Been consulted by Franklin D ... Greta Garbo has asked me to tea") are so topical and totally dated to the headlines of the 1930s that they break the mold for ballads. Yet they have such a clever, endearing charm that only a brave singer will dare to replace them (Sinatra dared with "...designed the latest IBM brain..."). The melody, true to the theme of the lyrics, starts out at a low pitch and rarely goes very far up. A moving melody line carries the descriptive lines of text, however, until it comes to the bridge, where the text turns more emotional. There the song, changing to a minor key with long held notes, borders on despondency.
Bunny Berigan[edit]
|The neutrality of this article is disputed. (March 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
After its initial splash and disappearance, "I Can't Get Started" took on a new life when Bunny Berigan, the star trumpeter with Benny Goodman and Tommy Dorsey, started a band of his own in 1937 and chose it as his theme song. Berigan's recording on trumpet is a virtuoso work that defines the range of the instrument, starting in the basement and climbing finally to the stratosphere. In addition to his range, Berigan displays here a mastery of expression, of emotional nuance, beyond what most trumpet players can only dream of: he takes the song all the way from despondence to victory.[verification needed]
The recording was an immediate hit and reached 10th place on the lists. His band, unfortunately, was short-lived, and he himself died in 1942 at age 33. In 1975, thirty three years after his death, Berigan's 1937 recording of "I Can't Get Started" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. The recording was also used in the films Save the Tiger, Chinatown, and The Big Shave.
Berigan's recording and the song itself, however, have continued to be prized by lovers of jazz. Billie Holiday recorded it quickly, so did Nat Cole, and before long Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and a host of other vocalists did likewise. It is also a favourite of trumpet players who are willing to risk comparison with Berigan. A few, like Dizzy Gillespie and Maynard Ferguson have done notably well, and jazz recordings on tenor sax by Lester Young and Stan Getz are admired.

In popular culture[edit]
In the screenplay for Groundhog Day the song is heard as Phil mounts (initially unsuccessfully) his campaign to win Rita's heart.
Also in the film, Avengers: Age of Ultron, an instrumental version of the song can be heard during the party scene.
The original Bunny Berigan recording of the song can be heard in the queue and other common areas both inside and outside the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror attraction at Disney's Hollywood Studios theme park at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.
The song has also been used in Martin Scorsese's first short film, The Big Shave.

Just got back from Code Camp 12 in Waltham, MA!
It was great! This was my first code camp, and I LOVED IT! It was at the Microsoft office in Waltham, MA, just outside the Boston area.
A big thanks to all who presented, and to those who organized!
Here are the sessions I attended:
- John Bowen: Visual Studio 2010 features
- Joseph Hill: Mono and .NET developers
- Phil Denoncourt: Localization and Globalization
- Julia Lerman: Entity Framework POCO
- Michael Cummings: ASP.NET MVC Better Practices
- Milan Negovan: The Microsoft AJAX JavaScript library
- Joseph Anderson: E-Commerce with .NET
All the presentations were great, but I bolded the two speakers whose presentations were particularly enlightening for me.
Julie's presentation was great because I personally and professionally use the Entity Framework, and find it to be a good fit for most of my needs. I usually use it for rapid application development and I find it useful because it's free, it's integrated into Visual Studio and it's fairly simple.
People say the current version of the Entity Framework does have shortcomings, but I personally haven't run into any of the problem scenarios. However, the new version, Entity Framework 4, is going to be released with .NET 4 and is supposed to add a lot of features that people have been asking for! One of those features is the ability to use POCO's with the Entity Framework.
Currently, the classes that are generated by the Entity Framework's designer are coupled with the API. This has a number of implications, one of which is limited testability. This is where POCO comes in. POCO stands for Plain Old CLR Object. Basically, a POCO is an object that does not have external dependencies. So when you are able to use POCO's with the Entity Framework, you will be decoupling your classes. There are also some other great features in Entity Framework 4, so go check it out!
Phil's presentation on Localization was great because I am about to completely localize a web application for a friend. To be honest, I didn't know a whole lot about how localization works in .NET. As I've worked with many CMS' before, I vaguely knew about resource files and about the Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture property. However, I didn't know about all the built-in localization features that the .NET framework has. Think about it! With localization in .NET you have to worry about localized content in Master pages, pages, user controls, databases, JavaScript, and more! There are also some gotchas that are good to know before even starting the localization process. Maybe I will talk to Phil and see if I can re-post or re-link the slides he used for his presentation!
I'll try update this post later with more detail about the sessions if I have more time. Maybe I can link some of the content too.

Gillian Coleman Earns EAGL Co-Rookie of the Week Honors
Colonials' freshman led GW to runner-up finish at Colonial Classic last weekend
March 17, 2005
WASHINGTON, DC - George Washington University freshman Gillian Coleman (Boston, MA) was named the East Atlantic Gymnastics League (EAGL) Co-Rookie of the Week for her performance on March 12 at the Colonial Classic, the conference office announced on Thursday, March 17. Coleman is the first Colonial to be honored by the EAGL this season.
At GW's home Colonial Classic at Smith Center, Coleman helped lead the Buff and Blue to a runner-up finish at the five-team meet. The Colonials finished second to EAGL member New Hampshire (192.95) with a team total of 192.525, but posted victories over then-No. 17 Kentucky (192.3), Yale (188.4) and James Madison (185.325) to improve to 13-12 overall.
Coleman set new collegiate-bests on both the uneven bars (9.725) and balance beam (9.65) to finish in the top 10 in both events to pace GW. In addition, Coleman's score on beam helped the Colonials win the beam title (47.4). On floor, Coleman also finished in the top 10 with a mark of 9.725.
In three of her last four meets, Coleman has scored 9.7 or better on bars and 9.55 or better in the floor exercise, including a season-best 9.825 on floor at Pittsburgh on March 5.
NC State's Kelsey Lee shared Rookie of the Week honors for the second straight week.
GW (13-12) returns to action tonight, March 17, when it travels to Towson, MD, to take on the Tigers at 6 p.m.

Party Pics: Tap N Run 4K brings Dallas' wackiest runners, from vikings to bananas, to Sandbar Cantina

This was not your normal road race, for sure. The Tap N Run 4K on Saturday at Sandbar Cantina in Dallas included three beer chug stations along the race course, and a full beer at the finish line. Awards were given for things like best mustache, short shorts, and hot mess. A portion of the proceeds benefited Operation Kindness, a North Texas animal shelter.
