Golf Forums - Is There One in Your Future?
Read on if you've ever wanted to join a golf forum or an internet discussion site, where you can text-talk about golf. To provide a casual yet informative study of the genre, I searched the web for "golf forums" and was rewarded with over 600,000 websites. Just the number of potential sites that I could visit exhausted me.
Therefore, what I give here consists of some anecdotal incidents of what I did, saw and read, and another golfer's long distance perspective along with a brand-new website.
Last year, I joined a regional golf forum - www.TorontoGolfNuts.com. I joined because I wanted to know what other avid golfers are saying about the state of the game.
In May 2006, I met with Gregory Wong, one of the founders of the TGN forum. He's an avid golfer employed in the banking industry and unable to golf as often as he'd like. But Wong and his friends wanted a place to share ideas, exchange tips, talk about golf, and meet other golfers. Greg and his team also coordinate an annual tournament, last year held at Angus Glen, the site of the 2007 Canadian Open. This year's TGN event will be at The Club at Bond Head, which Golf Digest ranked as one of Canada's top-three new courses in 2006. After last year's reasonably priced, well-managed tournament, the TGN 2007 event has become a "must do" tournament.
In just over three years, the Toronto Golf Nuts membership has grown to over 3,700 golfers. Most members are associated simply because they love golf. Some are in the golf business as equipment suppliers, instructors, journalists, or golf event organizers. A few members belong to exclusive private clubs, but most play public golf courses.
To expand my research I signed up for and visited a few golf forums. Most sites are free; supported by advertisers. Some are not free. Some sites have as few as three members and some have over 30,000 members. Most have standard discussion areas, called 'threads,' for sharing ideas and topics for discussion: Tour Talk, Equipment, Golf Tips, Course Reviews, arranging foursomes, and the 19th hole (where anything goes). Threads may include: sports (any sport), equipment exchanges and equipment reviews, how to select an HD TV and hook it up, and golf jokes.
Some forums are strictly golf-related and others are for establishing relationships: singles hoping to meet, golf, and possibly date another golfer, or for golf-related business networking. Most members join forums using an anonymous online name so it's not always easy to decipher who they really are. I'm not sure I like the anonymous aspect, but rest assured the forum moderators know a member's real name. Some of the same anonymous online names appear on several different forums, although one can't be certain that 'Badgolfer' on the Houston-based forum is the same 'Badgolfer' in Chicago and Vancouver forums.
Many forums have members who live in other regions or countries who join to seek advice on where to golf in an area or discuss travel plans. A few members request advice about honeymoon trips with a golfing (or non-golfing) spouse. Some join to stay in contact with golf interests and social aspects in his or her home region. (I'll tell you about a long-distance member's experience in a moment.)
The largest forum appears to be Hawaii, which also had the most non-resident members. That's not surprising. Another trip to Hawaii is on my golf vacation wish list.
Some forums are very easy to use. Others are not. A while ago, I signed up for www.thegolfspace.com website, but I'm not very active. The site felt trickier than reading brand-new bent grass greens. Some of us don't make a leap into new technology easily. www.thegolfspace.com may just need time as users learn the format.
Let's go to a specific example of the benefits of belonging to a golf forum.
About six months ago on TGN I read a note from a new TGN member who said he grew up in the Toronto area but he had logged in from Japan. The other day I saw his note to the TGN forum members:
"I was met at the train (after a 2½ hour trip), by jjack's friend and driven out to the course that jjack manages about 45 minutes away. We were joined by another guy (a very friendly American who, like me, teaches English and loves golf). jjack is a PGA teaching pro and a very nice guy. Playing with a pro was a great learning experience! After the round, we went to the American guy's place where we enjoyed chili dogs and pizza and various beverages (it's been a while since I've done that I can tell you!). We woke up at 8:00 a.m. to watch the Super Bowl and after the game, played another 18 holes with another four guys. After the round, I was given a ride back to the train station to make my way home. Now that's what I call hospitality!!
"I think it's pretty unusual for a group of friends to welcome a complete stranger into their circle for a couple of days. But, they were all very kind and I just wanted to let everyone on this board know that TGN was the connection. Thanks jjack and Thanks Toronto Golf Nuts!!"
His posts inform us about golfing and life in Japan. He has been teaching English for 10 years in Kobe, Japan, where he also operates a language school. He visits Ontario once a year.
Through the forum's private message service (most sites have this feature), I connected with him and asked about his experience with forums. Brian Miller, who agreed to let me use his real name, replied, "I've tried many golf forums, some were just not active enough, some were populated by teenagers who lie about their game, some people are obnoxious, and some forums were just outlets for equipment manufacturers." Because he is from the Toronto area, he joined the Toronto Golf Nuts forum.
When Brian said he wouldn't make it to the TGN tournament this year, I invited him for a game at my club in Milton, Ontario, when he does come to Ontario. Brian then said, "My uncle lives in Milton!"
Moving on, with my Google research, I specifically looked for 'private club members' forums,' but netted very little. However, a few days ago I found a brand-new website exclusively for members of private golf clubs. After exploring www.Privategolfconnections.com, I contacted the founder, Rick Vyrostko.
The site was launched at the PGA Merchandising Show in January 2007 and has international members. Membership in its inaugural year is free (for a limited time), but there will be an annual membership fee. One must prove his or her private club membership and agree to a "code of conduct." The site offers a way to connect exclusively with members of other private courses to request the opportunity to play at another private course. Members will enjoy similar features as other golf forums, with the added bonus of regional and global access to arrange a game at another private golf course. The site is bounding toward success.
Golf can be a great way to network for business or just for the love of the game. Golf forums can enhance the game, and remind us how small the world is.
Because of the use of anonymous online names, who you meet can be a real surprise. I had an online discussion with a TGN member who I didn't expected to meet. After a tournament at my home course, at dinner when I sat beside someone who I'd played golf with several times, he leaned closer and whispered his online name.
Did I mention that Rick Vyrostko lives 3 miles east of my house and Brian Miller's father lives 3 miles to the west? "JJack," Brian's host for that weekend in Japan, is Jeff Jackson who plans to join the Pro Tour in Japan and is the inventor of a swing-tempo-training device called "The Routine Machine."
Is a golf forum in your future? I hope so. A forum can be informative, funny, and surprising. Don't just read; participate. Maybe you'll find a golf tip or equipment that works, meet someone you want to know, or even someone you already know.
P.S. If you need a translator when you go to Japan, Brian J. Miller's school (www.newvillage.co.jp) is based in Kobe, Japan. He's writing a multi-language book about golf for use in Japan and Korea.
Jill J. Gowland has a BA in psychology from McMaster University in Hamilton Ontario, and worked as a psychiatric clinician for five years. Following that she did a 10-year stint in sales and then worked as a marketing manager in the high-tech software and the security/access-control industries.
Before attending university, J.J. served tables in a golf course coffee shop and has been an avid golfer for more than three decades. Jill has been associated with the golf business as a director and shareholder of a privately owned golf course for more than 20 years. Jill studied comedy at Second City, Toronto, has written and directed stage plays, taught improv comedy, is a published poet. She has blogs on www.SandbaggersAnonymous.blogspot.com, has written for Ontario Golf Magazine, and is a golf novelist. Jill lives with a fluctuating handicap in Oakville, Ontario, Canada.
Her latest book, "Confessions of a Sandbagger," (ISBN 1-4137-5527-4), a trade paperback, was released in December 2004 and is available world-wide and directly from the author.

Tenmou A New Startup Seed Investment Company from Bahrain, Open To All Sectors
We are witnessing a growth in the number of seed stage investment and accelerator hubs in the region. There is Oasis500 and Medyan in Jordan, Tahrir sq in Alexandria Egypt and PlugAndPlay in Cairo Egypt. N2V is planning to launch its own, and now we have Tenmou.
Tenmou which is based in Bahrain does not offer a fiscal space, but cash investment and mentorship and it does not solely focus on tech startups but on any sector as long as the idea is innovative and can spread beyond the Bahraini market.
The investor hub is open to anyone but as its FAQ says its hard to invest in non Bahraini entrepreneurs.
Tenmou offers funding up to BD20,000 in the first round and 3 month monitorship in which after that entrepreneurs can present in an investor day. The hub is open to applicants in batches, first batch deadline is on 10th January 2011. To know more about the process you can go here.
I am happy that seed stage funding and accelerator programs are growing in numbers in the Arab world.
Share and Enjoy

Go Back to the Arcade in this New Adventureland Clip
Posted on Thursday, January 15th, 2009 by Peter Sciretta
I was able to score a new clip from Adventureland at the Sundance Press Center. The video clip takes place in the 80's-era Adventureland arcade. Connell (Ryan Reynolds), an aspiring rock star and "the icon of cool to all the kids working at the park", hits on Em (Kristen Stewart). I'll be seeing Adventureland in a couple days at the Sundance Film Festival premiere, so check back for the early buzz on the film. Watch the new clip after the jump.

A 24-year-old man told police he was robbed Wednesday and Thursday by two different people while walking in the borough.
In the first instance, he was walking near West Louther and North Pitt streets between 5 p.m. and 10 p.m. Wednesday when he was approached by a white man in his 40's or 50's who demanded everything in his pockets. The victim handed over his wallet, cash and cigarettes, police said.
In the second instance, the same victim was walking on the 200 block of High Street about 1 p.m. Thursday when a black man in his late teens or early 20's asked him for the time. When the victim pulled out his cell phone, the man grabbed it and ran off, he told police.
Anyone with information should call police at 717-243-5252.

GTA: Chinatown Wars Review
Whether you're a GTA veteran or someone who's never played one of these games before, you should know that this is one of the best games available for your PSP.
Is GTA: Chinatown Wars my favourite handheld game of all time? It's a question that I asked myself many times while playing through Rockstar Leeds' gangster epic for the second time this year. I loved every second of the original DS release, and I ranted and raved about it to anyone who would listen, so I jumped at the chance to return to an improved version of the game for PSP. And guess what: it's every bit as good as it was last time around, if not better.
Chinatown Wars is a bit like a crossbreed of GTA IV and the very first Grand Theft Auto game - the rock-hard, top-down 2D title that kicked things off back in 1997. The game itself is entirely 3D, but the action is viewed from an elevated, near-overhead perspective. The series' trademark humour is here in abundance, as are several other familiar features that have come to define the franchise over the years - the perpetual car-jacking, the sideshow mini-games, and the hidden collectibles stashed all over the city. But there are also new elements here too - notably a tendency towards shorter, bitesize missions, and a hugely endearing sense of playfulness.
Naturally the whole package is wrapped up with a twisting, thriller-style plot. Chinatown Wars is the story of Huang Lee - a spoiled brat who arrives in Liberty City shortly after the murder of his father. Lee is supposed to deliver a ceremonial sword, Yu Jian, to his eccentric Uncle Kenny; by giving the weapon to the ageing leader of the Triads, Kenny hopes to guarantee his position as heir to the throne. Unfortunately things go tits up as soon as Huang arrives: he's ambushed by thugs who promptly shoot him in the head, nab the sword and leave him for dead.
This ill-timed theft creates a serious problem, as Kenny is left looking like a complete idiot. His rivals in the Triad leadership immediately overtake him in the race to be the next leader, and to make matters worse it seems that there's a rat in the organisation. Things get messy very quickly, and as the bodies pile up Huang finds himself desperately searching for the traitor - who may or may not be the same person who killed his pops.
In structural terms, Chinatown Wars is very similar to previous GTA titles, with Huang being passed from boss to boss as everyone tries to wash their dirty (Chinese) laundry. Huang himself is a very likeable anti-hero - a sarcastic smart-ass who's clever enough to know he's in serious trouble, but not powerful enough to do anything about it. He's surrounded by a cast of great characters, from arrogant psychos to junkie undercover cops, and while the plot unfolds through static but pretty-looking cutscenes, the written dialogue is sharp enough to make this the funniest GTA in quite some time. You'll frequently laugh out loud while playing this game, but the darker elements of the plot work equally well - particularly in the story's latter half.
In gameplay terms, it's back to the old template of driving around town and picking up missions from hotspots on the map. The city layout here is identical to GTA IV (minus the Western-most island), and despite the change of viewpoint you'll easily be able to recognise the different areas - particularly due to the fact that the excellent graphics are sharper and more detailed on the PSP than they were on the DS. All of the game's menus and settings are accessed via a simulated PDA-style interface, and among the many features is a handy GPS system that helps you find your way to important locations and people. Huang's PDA also allows him to receive emails from his bosses and from his drug-dealing contacts (more on these later), and there's a handy little menu that lets you order weapons over the internet: two minutes after placing your order, you'll get an email saying that your package has been despatched. Head to your nearest safehouse, and your guns will be waiting for you in a box. If only Amazon worked so well.
As many of you will be glad to hear, the driving controls are considerably easier to pick-up here than on the home console GTAs. There's an automatic steering system that helps to keep your vehicle parallel with the road, but this actually proves to be very handy (and you can turn it off if you really hate it). On foot things take a bit more getting used to due to the rather odd camera movement and slightly fiddly lock-on combat system, but once you've adjusted you'll forget all about these things. By default Chinatown Wars uses the analogue nub to govern your movement; personally I found this very uncomfortable, but thankfully there's an alternative setup that lets you use the d-pad instead.

I have recently decided to start a series of articles that will focus on the career-defining moments of individual wrestlers.
For every main-event star that has made their mark in the wrestling business, there are moments that, when you look back, define the directions that their career has taken.
I am talking about moments like the iconic "Austin 3:16" promo or Shawn Michaels kicking Marty Jannetty through the "Barber Shop" window, turning points in the respective careers of two icons.
The first article in the series will detail the career of the current WWE superstar whose story is perhaps more inspirational than any other. I am talking about the Miz, who was ridiculed and vehemently criticized by fans, journalists and wrestlers alike when he first made his WWE debut.
But he rose above all the adversity he faced and went from a reality television star to a WWE Champion in quite incredible fashion.
This article will take you through the 10 moments that define his career up to this point in chronological order. Enjoy this in-depth look at the career of the "most must-see WWE Champion in history!"

LIBERTY - Anne Buckley, 81, rejoined her beloved God and Savior on Thursday, Sept. 27, 2012. Anne suffered through a long and difficult illness, cared for by those who loved her most to the very end.
She was born Nov. 22, 1930, in Youngstown.
Anne received her education from the old St. Ann School, the Ursuline High School class of 1948 and attended Youngstown College. Anne taught the children of Holy Family and St. Charles.
Article Photos
She married her high school love, Dr. John Buckley, on April 24, 1954, and recently celebrated 58 years together.
Anne cheerfully endured the long years of her husband's medical school and residency with four young children at her knee.
She was a member of the Junior Guild, partook of the planning and execution of the original St. Elizabeth Hospital Charity Balls, and was a long member of the Angels for Easter Seals, Stambaugh Pillars, Youngstown Country Club and St. Edward Church.
Anne's family was her life.
Those left to remember her love are her husband, Dr. John Sr.; a son, Dr. John (Margaret) Buckley Jr.; and three daughters, Joy (Robert) Vanes, Colleen (Timothy) Glaab and Mollie (Philip) Sekola, all of Youngstown; and a brother, Thomas Finnerty of Youngstown; 13 grandchildren, Dr. Kaila, John and Meghan Buckley, Capt. Daniel (Mindy) Vanes, USMC, Colleen and Michael Vanes, Dr. Jonathan, Erin and Kelly Glaab, and Sean, Colin, Kate and Caroline Sekola. Anne and John also long cared for two Christian children, Bualia of Uganda and Jose of Guatemala.
She also leaves a sister-in-law, Mary Kay (Dr. Frank) D'Isa of Youngstown; and a brother-in-law, Dr. Charles (Margaret) Buckley of Potomac, Md.; numerous cousins, nieces and nephews.
She joins her parents, George "Cotton" Finnerty and Mary Howe Finnerty; her sister, Dorothy Bloom; and her brothers, Dr. George Jr., Robert and John.
The family requests that Anne be remembered by a donation to the Beatitude House for homeless women and children, 238 Tod Lane, Youngstown, OH 44504, or the family scholarship fund at Ursuline High Scholl, 750 Wick Avenue, Youngstown, OH 44505, for students in need.
A prayer service will be held at 9:15 a.m. Monday at the Higgins-Reardon Funeral Home Austintown Chapel and a Mass of Christian Burial at 10 a.m. at St. Edward Church. Friends may call from 4 to 8 p.m. Sunday at the funeral home.

Family Ties
3rd Rock from the Sun Turns 20, Plus 10 Other Roles That Led Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Stardom
Originally posted 01/13/2016 11:45AM
Twenty years ago this week, an oddball NBC sitcom introduced viewers to a family of space aliens who, in the grand tradition of ALF, Mork and Mindy and My Favorite Martian, were attempting to hide out on Earth. It was a silly premise, but 3rd Rock from the Sun ended up outlasting those other three shows, running a full six seasons. And we can credit its success to a talented comedic cast that included John Lithgow, Kristen Johnston, French Stewart and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who was only 14 when the show premiered.
25 Years After the Family Ties Finale, Let's Remember Its Most Random Guest Stars

[YOUTUBE "Z0hQ_C59cyI"] As LFO was fond of reminding us, "Michael J. Fox was Alex P. Keaton" on the hit 1980s sitcom Family Ties, a crucial part of NBC's long-running Thursday night comedy block, which ends with the network's fall 2014 schedule.
But beyond its young star, a number of famous actors also started their journey to fame and fortune with bit parts on the series. To celebrate this week's 25th anniversary of the Family Ties finale (the curtain call of which you can watch above), let's revisit some of the series' most significant cameos.

And, as their official wedding photos illustrate, beaming brides Meredith Baxter and Nancy Locke couldn't look happier as they were getting married on Sunday in Los Angeles.
The Family Ties star, 66, who came out in 2009, tied the knot after dating Locke for seven years.

Michael J. Fox on the 'Family Ties' to His New Show
Originally posted 07/27/2013 06:15PM
Michael J. Fox's four kids might find some familiar scenes in their dad's new NBC sitcom, about a husband and father with Parkinson's disease who decides to go back to work after taking some time off.
"There are some things taken from [my] life," he tells reporters Saturday at the Television Critics Association press tour.
"For example, my youngest daughter, when she went to camp a couple of years ago, took us aside and said, 'I'm warning you, when I go camping and you see pictures on the Internet, I'm trying out a new smile.' And we transposed that to the daughter on the show, when she doesn't like the way she runs, so she rehearses a new running method. There's little snips and pieces of the experience of raising teenagers."
Gary David Goldberg, Family Ties Creator, Dies at 68

Gary David Goldberg, who created the 1980s sitcom hit Family Ties and expanded into feature films, has died.
Goldberg died of brain cancer in Montecito, Calif., on Saturday, days before his 69th birthday, The New York Times reported.
Goldberg's TV successes also included the ABC comedy Spin City, which in 1996 reunited him with Family Ties breakout star Michael J. Fox as the deputy mayor of New York City.
"With a full heart I say goodbye to my mentor, benefactor, partner, second father and beloved friend," Fox said in a statement on Monday. "He touched so many with his enormous talent and generous spirit. He changed my life profoundly."

"She's one of my favorite people in the world, and I'm just thrilled that it's no longer a secret, and that's about the size of it," says Gross, who played the dad on the 1980s sitcom Family Ties. "I'm just thrilled this has happened because now my wife and I don't have to hide this from everybody we know. Occasionally people will say to us, 'Hey, Michael, you still see your costar? How's she doing? Is there a man in her life?' "
Gross, 62, and his wife have known about Baxter's sexuality for four years, and he counts the actress, also 62, among his best friends – they last saw each other in July, at a Family Ties reunion dinner. Baxter and longtime girlfriend Nancy Locke, a building contractor, are a wonderful couple, he says.
Former Family Ties Star Violates Probation
Originally posted 07/15/2008 06:00PM
Former child star, Brian Bonsall, who played Michael J. Fox's kid brother, Andy Keaton, in Family Ties, is in trouble again: this time for probation violation.
Bonsall, 26, of Boulder, Colo., was sentenced in 2007 to two years' probation for assaulting his girlfriend. She claimed that he poured an alcoholic drink on her face as she slept, choked her and threw her on a bed.
As part of his sentencing, Bonsall agreed to take domestic violence classes and to stay away from drugs and alcohol. But according to the complaint filed in Boulder District Court, Bonsall, who is unemployed, couldn't pay for his classes, missed breathalyzer tests and walked out on a required urine test.

Author: Zoopla.co.uk property news author Frances MacDonald writes about taking the plunge and converting an old building into a home – but she also warns about planning restrictions and financial snares that can crop up along the way.
Some of the most beautiful and glamorous homes are those that have been converted from older buildings. Barn conversions have a popular appeal because they combine the shells of beautiful old buildings with ample interior space, and are often surrounded by green, countryside settings. Here are some key points to take into account if you're thinking of converting a barn into a home:
Layout – If you are looking for something cosy with petite rooms, a barn conversion is not for you. One of the advantages of having a barn is the sheer space it offers, which can convert well into open-plan living areas and rooms with high ceilings and large windows. It also offers plenty of room for furniture or shelving – perhaps even that oversized bookcase you've always wanted but couldn't find room for!
Restrictions – Be aware of the restrictions imposed by the local authorities that could leave your dream living room or kitchen looking slightly disproportionate. Many planners will be reluctant to change the central area of the barn or the original roof as this would detract from the building's character. This may mean that you have to dig down to ensure you have sufficient roof space for both first and second floors. Or you may have to place the bedrooms at either end of the living room area, which may not be appropriate if you are a family with young kids.
Financial and emotional cost – Converting a barn is no easy job and can become exceedingly painful if the building is listed and requires specific materials. Not only this but the cost of renovating such a large space can be extremely high, and if the need for new supporting beams and large structural changes are required, you could blow your budget out of the water. Making sure such a large space is well insulated is another potential pitfall as warming up the place in winter may not be cost efficient at all.
If you have decided you are up for a challenge but there are still some niggling worries, get in touch with people who have done conversions of this kind before. There are a variety of programmes available from Channel 4's Grand Designs to Escape to the Country, which take you through other people's conversions. They might just inspire you…

Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose was robbed of three gold-and-diamond necklaces worth about $200,000 on Tuesday during a private gathering after a stadium show in Paris, the Associated Press reported.
Police arrested a young woman Wednesday in connection with the theft, according to an AFP report. The woman, a model, earlier had returned the jewelry to a Paris police station, claiming she was at the private gathering and didn't know how she ended up leaving with the items.
A police spokesman said Rose apparently wasn't wearing the necklaces at the time of the theft. Sources also said Rose was so enraged by the theft that officers were called in to calm the situation.
Guns N' Roses is on tour in Europe and Israel through July 22. Rose is the only original member in the band's current lineup.

WETUMPKA, Alabama – The Elmore County Commission approved local legislation requests for a lodging tax and a pretrial diversion program for nonviolent offenders during its meeting Monday.
The lodging tax would charge a rate of $1.50 per night, per room, according to the legislation. The tax would not apply to lodgings supplied for 30 continuous days or more. Commission Chairman Joe Faulk said the county pegged the rate at what is charged in Montgomery County.
"We are not asking for any more than what Montgomery County is asking for," Faulk said.
Faulk said the county estimated the tax would generate $200,000 to $300,000 annually. He said the revenue would be used for debt service on capital projects, including rehabilitating county buildings including the jail complex and construction of the new Elmore County Emergency Management Agency emergency operations center.
The pretrial diversion program would be established through the Elmore County District Attorney's Office to allow participants who successfully complete the program to have charges reduced, dismissed or otherwise mitigated.The District attorney's office has had an existing pretrial diversion program since 2006. Faulk said the commission was unaware of its existence when the recent bill was proposed in late January. Faulk said the commission would see if the new bill could be used to enhance the existing program as it decided how to proceed.
The commission authorized the two bills to be advertised. The local legislation will be sent to the Alabama Legislature for consideration.
The commission delayed action on a proposed bill to offset the cost of cleaning up methamphetamine labs in the county at the request of Commissioner David Bowen, who had questions about some of the language in the bill. Bowen said he would like to discuss the bill with Ron Drinkard of government relations firm Crosby Drinkard Group, which helped prepare the bills.
In other business, the commission approved a $30,000 grant-match requested by the Tallassee Industrial Development Board to help secure funds from the Alabama Department of Transportation for construction of a road in the Tallassee Corporate Park.
District 2 Commissioner Trey Taylor delayed action during the commission's last meeting in February to research the project further.
The commission approved as much as $14,000 for comprehensive training for staff on FundWare, the county's governmental accounting software.
The commission had been debating whether to fund the training after discarding bids in February on replacements for FundWare. County Administrator Lynda Feaga recommended the training as a way to better assess the software's capabilities as the county considers whether to replace it.
District 5 Commissioner Stephanie Daniels-Smoke advocated for training the full staff as a more cost-effective solution instead of a proposal to train only one employee.
Commissioners also authorized Faulk to enter into an agreement with ALDOT for a project to resurface 3 miles of Rock Springs Road from Rifle Range Road to Redland Road. County engineer Richie Beyer said the project will cost approximately $400,000, of which the county will be responsible for 20 percent.

Oct. 18, 2011
COLUMBUS, Ohio - Brandon Wynn, a former Buckeye (2008-11) and two-time U.S. national rings champion, and Ohio State men's gymnastics head coach Rustam Sharipov traveled to Guadalajara, Mexico, Monday to represent the United States at the 2011 Pan American Games Oct. 24-29. Competition for the United States begins at 2 p.m. Oct. 25 with the men's team finals and all-around and event qualifications.
"Our goal is to not just finish in the Top 3, but to be strong and win the Pan American Games and I think Brandon will have a big part of the team's success," said Sharipov.
Wynn, who defended his U.S. national rings title at the 2011 VISA Championships Aug. 20, will compete in all six events for the United States next week. With just seven months before the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, Wynn will look to have a strong showing at the elite international event.
Wynn and Sharipov are two of six members on the U.S. national team from the Big Ten Conference. Other members from the Big Ten include C.J. Maestas, Tyler Mizoguchi and Paul Ruggeri from University of Illinois. Justin Springs, the head coach of the Fighting Illlini, also is part of the coaching staff for the United States.

TOKYOFebruary 5, 2014: Japan Airlines (JAL) has requested for approval from the Japanese Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) to apply the level of fuel surcharges on all international passenger tickets issued between April 1 and May 31, 2014 as detailed below. Meanwhile, the fuel surcharge benchmark list for the fiscal year 2014 has been determined. (Fiscal year 2014 is from April 1, 2014 to March 31, 2015, hereinafter referred to as "FY2014")
Regarding fuel surcharge benchmark list for FY2014(see below), the airline adjusted the amounts in Japanese yen for Zone G, H and I in response to increased expenses, owing to weak yen last year, and levels within Zones A to F remain the same.
JAL sets fuel surcharge levels bimonthly based on the 2-month average price of Singapore kerosene-type jet fuel. The price of Singapore kerosene-type jet fuel during the two month period of December 2013 and January 2014 averaged US$123.88 per barrel. With reference to the fuel surcharge benchmark list for FY2014, this corresponds to Zone G of fuel surcharges. From April to May 2014, it will range from 2,500 yen on a Japan - Korea ticket to 25,000 yen on a Japan - USA ticket per person per sector flown, on tickets purchased in Japan.
This updated level of fuel surcharge will be applied to all international passenger tickets issued between April 1 and May 31, 2014.
Fuel Surcharge for the period: April 1 ~ May 31, 2014
- For full details about JAL's fuel surcharge policy, please refer to http://www.jal.co.jp/en/inter/fuel/detail.html.

Zildjian Cymbals
The first Zildjian Cymbals were created in 1618 in Istanbul, Turkey by an Armenian by the name of Avedis.
While looking for a way to turn metal into gold, he created an alloy combining silver, tin, and copper into a sheet of metal that could make musical sounds without breaking.
Avedis began the cymbal industry in 1623, and as his reputation grew, he was given the name, "Zildjian," which is an Armenian word meaning "son of a cymbal maker."
He made many innovations in cymbals that are still around today, and was the first to develop cymbals for the drum set. Plus, he gave cymbals names, such as "crash," "ride," "hi-hat," and "splash."
The company has been handed down to the family through generations, and in 1908, Avedis Zildjian III migrated to Boston. But, Kerope Zilcan continued to manufacture cymbals in Turkey under the K. Zildjian Constantinople name.
In 1923, the name of the city, Constantinople, was officially changed to Istanbul, as the Turkish Republic was established. As the new republic was established, so changed the company's name from K. Zildjian Constantinople to K. Zildjian Istanbul.
Around 1926-1928, Aram Zildjian and Avedis III signed an exclusive American distribution agreement for K. Zildjian Cymbals with the Gretsch Drum Company and began manufacturing cymbals in Quincy, assachusetts. In 1929, the Avedis Zildjian Company was formed.
In 1968, the K. Zildjian Company and all European trademarks were brought to the US by Robert Zildjian on behalf of the Avedis Zildjian
Company. Robert and Avedis then opened up the Azco factory in Meductic, New Brunswick, Canada where they manufactured Zilco cymbals.
In 1975, problems arose within the Turkish government and Robert brought over a Turkish crew to begin manufacturing K Zildjian Cymbals in the Azco factory. This was the first time that Kerope and Avedis Zildjian had worked together to make the same Zildjian Cymbals after years of competing with each other as A. Zildjian and K. Zildjian Istanbul.
In 1979, Avedis died and Robert split from Zildjian due to a conflict with his brother, Armand. As Armand headed up the Zildjian Company, Robert began his own line of cymbals known as Sabian in the Canadian Azco plant in 1981.
Armand Zildjian died in 2002 leaving the Avedis Zildjian Company in the hands of his two daughters, Craigie Zildjian and Debbie Zildjian.
Nearly 400 years old, the Avedis Zildjian Company is the world's largest manufacturer of cymbals and other products such as drumsticks and other drum accessories, and has been officially recognized as the oldest continually family-owned business in America.

Help me find a bra, please! *PIOG*
recently lost a lot of weight (yay!), and my bra size went from 36D to
34D. Wish it'd went to C, but oh well. Anyway, I went to buy a couple
new bras in my favorite one yesterday and couldn't find it. Looked
online and found one place with it that charges double what I'd pay at
the store. Boo! I want a bra with NO padding (I got enough of a natural
chest, I don't want/need any extra on there), underwire, and soft. My
favorite is the Extreme Comfort bra by Fruit of the Loom, but the I
can't find my new size in that one except for that one place right now.
Anyone have any suggestions, recommendations for a comfy bra that has no
padding, is soft, has underwire and won't cost me an arm and a leg?
victoria sicret the best bras!! and tell us,please, how u lost so much weight?
Iget mine from Walmart. They have my size in 44D no padding, I am sure they have your size in 34D
that spanx bra doesn't offer any support. It comes in that size but its better for women with smaller breasts.
Quoting bupkie:
Try Gap body.. or Herroom.com, Freshpair.com, Barenecessities.com Spanx has one called Bra-llelujah that I've heard lots of buzz about that's supposed to be the most comfortable bra ever... but at $62.00 I haven't tried it....Quoting rebmarie90:
Ok this is what I do! First of, padding doesn't add anything unless you buy push up. It is meant to shape you. secondly, 2nd if you went from a 36d to a 34d then you did lose a cup size. a 34d cup is smaller than a 36. 3rd I recommend going to get measured to be sure if you haven't done so yet. Wacoal makes a soft cup bra with wire for 44 and Chantelle has a bra that is considered molded but it is barely molded and it works similar to a soft cup, it runs around 60.
Btw, ^^That's true, just down a band size from 36D would translate to a 34DD... but all bras are different.. Especially going to VS, many times I have to go to a DD instead of a D.
I just want to wish you luck!
To be honest, the first half was due to the depression diet. No appetite, really depressed and lost some. Then I got my head back on strait and got up off my ass and the rest came off. Went from sahm to working 40+ hours a week, walking a few miles at least 3-5 days a week and making better food choices.
Quoting Lamazia:
victoria sicret the best bras!! and tell us,please, how u lost so much weight?
I think you'll be very happy with the Wacoal brand of bras. They're a better quality and even more comfortable. Pretty too! Here is a suggestion to look for on Google: Wacoal Embrace Lace Underwire Bra 65191
Please let me know what you think. I have a few of them (different styles) and just love their bras.

BELLWOOD - Taxpayers in the Bellwood-Antis school district will face a tax increase for the ninth time in 10 years.
School board members voted 6-2 Tuesday to approve a $16,644,526 proposed final budget that calls for an increase of 6.31 mills in the real estate tax.
The increase would take millage from 98.7148 mills to 105.0248 mills and would cost the average property owner an additional $72.84.
Business manager and board secretary Kimberly M. VanGorder said May 6 that even with a 6.31-mill tax increase, the
board faced a deficit of $959,533.
VanGorder had urged board members not to use the $1.1 million fund balance to help balance the budget.
However, board members used a series of cuts and restructuring, as well as $527,582 of the fund balance, to balance the proposed final budget.
Some of those cuts included a reduction of one person on the technology staff, elimination of a computer aide, reducing the custodial staff by one and not replacing the transportation secretary who has retired.
Board members had discussed dropping the drivers education program, but for now that program remains in the budget, VanGorder said.
President Steve Winterstein, Vice President Lisa Kovac, Donna Tyler, Steve Burns, Scott Boyer and Kenneth Loucks voted in favor of the budget, while Jeff Nycum and Chris McCartney voted against approval. Robert Fisher was absent.
"I just saw it for the first time now and didn't have time to dissect it," Nycum said.
Winterstein had hoped for a lower increase in the millage.
"My main thing is the millage, but we will have an opportunity to drop the millage," Winterstein said.
VanGorder was not happy about using part of the fund balance.
"It will affect our bond rating if we want to refinance," VanGorder said.
Board members are considering a refinancing of bond issue 2010A as a money-saving effort.
Leslie L. Bear, managing director of Robert W. Baird & Co., Exton, suggested board members consider a "taxable restructuring" of the bond issue, which could save the district about $317,000 for the 2014-15 school year.
"We can restructure it and extend the debt for four years," Bear said.
Bear also gave board member some suggestions on financing a new roof for the high school/middle school. The roof is 25 years old and in need of replacement.
"We have 35 to 50 leaks a year. We are putting money in it every year," said Randy Showalter, maintenance director.
"We have a 25-year-old roof. Water is going to find its way in," Winterstein said.
Changes are likely to be made to the budget prior to final adoption planned for June 24, VanGorder said.

That's just one of the tidbits fans learned on Thursday, when the domestic diva and TV personality stopped by Reddit for its "Ask Me Anything" series. Stewart bravely tackled topics such as sex advice, her time in jail, tacos, tattoos and her supposed feud with Gwyneth Paltrow (spoiler: there isn't one!).
Stewart, 72, was promoting her two TV shows, Martha Stewart's Cooking School and Martha Bakes, which return to PBS in April.
Here's what we learned about her.
1. She changes her bed sheets every day.
"Yes. It's a luxury."
2. When it comes to sex, cleanliness is key.
"Always take a bath before and after," Stewart said. When one commenter suggested getting dirty in the tub, she responded: "That's good too, and don't forget to brush your teeth."
3. She really is friends with Snoop Dogg.
"I wish I were closer friends with Snoop Dogg," she said, extending an offer for the rapper to join the discussion. Sadly, he did not show up.
4. She isn't sure whether she had a jailhouse name or not.
"I think I did, but I can't remember," she said on whether she had a nickname during her 2004 prison stint. "I don't think about the past."
5. She has never bought a cookie in her life.
One of Stewart's former neighbors asked if the cookies that Stewart handed out on Halloween were homemade. "Yes, every single cookie was homemade," Stewart said, adding, "I don't think I've ever bought cookies in my life."
6. Her favorite parody was done by Saturday Night Live.
"There have been many. None of which are very accurate or flattering. But Ana Gasteyer on SNL did a good job." Stewart also has a positive opinion of the episode of South Park in which she appeared: "I thought it was really cute!"
7. She's a fan of Pharrell.
"Pharrell Williams. He's so cute," she said of the "Happy" singer. "I've actually seen him in person and adore his good humor."
8. A single taco does not fill her up, and she does not believe in snacks.
"I was at a really good Mexican restaurant yesterday, and I ate one whole taco," she said. "I was still hungry."
While many of us would grab a snack after such an unsatisfying meal, Stewart has a different opinion. "I never serve snacks at parties. It's either hors devours [sic] or a meal," Stewart said. She then clarified the difference. "Hors devours [sic] are prepared foods one would serve with meals or wine. Snacks are something you get out of a bag or a box."
9. She hates truffle oil.
Stewart said, "I think truffle oil is one of the few ingredients that doesn't belong in anyone's kitchen. It is ruinous of most recipes."
10. She paints the soles of her Christian Louboutin shoes.
Stewart doesn't like the shoes' trademark red sole. She wrote of her fashion move, "One of my rules is not to be a slave to fashion."
11. She is not in a feud with Gwyneth Paltrow.
"I have never said Gwyneth is a bad homemaker," she pointed out. "In fact, I've never been invited to her home, so how would I know?"

PRIOR WEEK MARKET MOVERS: EU DEATH WATCH, & WHAT LURKS BENEATH 0 commentsNov 26, 2011 8:06 PM | about stocks: UUP, UDN, FXE, ERO, URR, ULE, EUO, DRR, FXA, FXB, FXC, FXD, FXF, FXEN, FXY, JYF, CYB, GLD, CNY, USO, DUG, USL, NBO, DBV, ICI, CEW, SLV, OIL, SPY, SDS, RSW, BXDC, SPXU, SH, DIA, EWC, EWA, TLT, XHB, ITM, IGOV, VGK, TBT, GSG, DBC, CORN, ICN, SZR, BZF, GRU, DAX-OLD, FRC, DB, SAN, BNO, ENIA
Part 1: Prior Week Market Movers & Their Lessons For the Coming Week
A trader's strategy guide to prior week's market movers and their lessons for the coming week for traders of all major asset classes via both traditional instruments and binary options
The EU remains on death watch, in terminal condition from a nasty debt overdose. There's no one to play the lender of last resort that can supply the (temporary?)medicine, so the EU continues its tailspin, a negative feedback loop comprised of:1. FALLING CREDIT RATINGS…
Portugal, Hungary, and Belgium all suffered credit downgrades. Both Fitch and S&P warned that France could expect the same if conditions continue to deteriorate. A French downgrade would threaten the credit rating of Europe's bailout fund, the EFSF. That's the casualty list for this week.
Just as a reminder, Austria, the US, and Japan are all under threat of downgrades in the coming months. See here for more details.
Probably, but no matter, one feeds the other, both a symptom of too much debt that can't be repaid. Period.
With no solution on the scene, not Eurobonds, not an expanded bailout fund, and no ECB ready to be lender of last resort and buy whatever bonds are needed to keep sovereign borrowing costs affordable (this is the current favored near term solution for those seeking to defer the final reckoning), the situation continues to deteriorate.
As usual, too-big-rescue twins, Spain and Italy, suffered poor bond auctions and rising yields, with benchmark 10 year bonds back over the 7% red line that signals unsustainable borrowing costs. News about rising risks of credit downgrade sent French and Belgian yields rising as well. These developments were disturbing but not new.
What was new and was Germany's failed bond auction and rising borrowing costs. This served as a nasty reminder that under current conditions even the safest EU debt is far from risk free. German officials tried to shrug it off as a one-off event, but the evidence suggests otherwise. Morgan Stanley had already pointed out earlier that German bund yields had already stopped falling as of early November, even though peripheral sovereign yields had continued rising. In other words, demand for German bonds as a safe haven had leveled off even while the very thing driving it, rising risk in other bonds, had continued. That suggested that those seeking safety were looking elsewhere.
Here's the chart:
(via businessinsider.com see article here ) 02 NOV 26 2207
Note how German 10 year yields (blue) had stopped falling over a week earlier, even while Italian and Spanish 10 year yields kept rising.
If indeed German yields keep rising, this auction could prove in retrospect to be the biggest event of the week, as the signal that indeed the core funding nations are fully infected. That would likely accelerate progress to some kind of near term solution at minimum. It's likely no coincidence that fellow hard money stalwarts Holland and Finland issued comments suggestingnew openness to greater ECB intervention as a last resort.
The events discussed below did not have a major impact on markets but easily could do so in the coming weeks, so it pays to be aware of them.

EAST LIVERPOOL - A West Virginia man was arrested Friday night on drug charges after an officer pulled over the car in which he was a passenger for failing to obey a stop sign.
Patrolman Chris Green was on patrol when he reported seeing the vehicle fail to stop on Erie Street. The driver, John M. Graham, 48, state Route 45, Wellsville, told the officer he hadn't seen the sign and was giving his passenger, Jason Rowland of West Virginia a ride home.
Both denied there being anything illegal inside the vehicle, and Graham gave permission for it to be searched, according to reports. When Green opened the passenger door, he reported finding Chore Boy and a syringe underneath the seat that had fresh blood on it that Rowland claimed as his.

Inside a bookbag, additional syringes were found as well as two digital scales, a radar detector, Taser and two cartridges, two cell phones and two vials of Narcan, which is given as an antidote for heroin overdoses. Rowland reportedly said the items were his, and he was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of drug abuse instruments, with additional charges possible pending lab results.
A large sum of money was also seized from Rowland.
Graham was given a warning for the stop sign violation.

I. Introduction
This is a short extract from Liz Greene's Psychological Horoscope Analysis. The complete report of 18-25 pages can be ordered as an E-Horoscope or a bound booklet in the Astroshop.This horoscope analysis - using the insights of astrology and psychology combined with the tools of advanced computer technology - offers you an astrological portrait which is uniquely and individually focussed and which aims at providing greater self-knowledge. II. Your Psychological Type
This short chapter describes your typical or characteristic way of responding to situations in life.The rich array of individual attributes portrayed in your birth horoscope is set, as it is with everyone, against the backdrop of a certain temperament bias. We might call this bias your psychological "type". Your basic nature is a realistic one, and your characteristic way of dealing with the situations life brings you is to meet them honestly and then to organise them until they are manageable. You possess sound practical abilities, and are gifted with a good "reality function"; and you have the knack of being able to make the best of your resources without wasting your energies in fantasising how it "might" have been if only the world were different. You are a builder and know how to turn dreams [...] [..] You combine insight with the capacity for action, and can deal with just about any concrete challenge that life brings. You also possess ethics and a sense of fairness, and you do not forget the relevance of broader humanitarian issues to your own interests. However, one [...] III. Character and Shadow
In this comprehensive chapter of the Psychological Horoscope Liz Greene provides valuable insights about your essential character traits.The interplay between the conscious and unconscious sides of you is a constantly shifting dance, changing at different stages of your life and altering according to the pressures and challenges which you encounter. The tension between the primary characters in your inner drama is the source of energy which provides your life with movement, purpose, conflict and growth. [..] When you are confronted with the other 5% (which has a nasty tendency to creep in despite your efforts), you tend to either turn your back upon it and ignore it, or set about trying to clean it up. You are likely to be attracted to beautiful philosophies as well as beautiful [...] [..] You are probably good with your hands, and adept at a variety of crafts or skills; or, if not, then your sharp eye and natural sense of form and rhythm could lead you to excel in the design side of the arts. You incline toward a certain studiousness, and are probably an [...] Hidden traits [..] This hidden side of you contains all those rougher qualities which you have excluded from your conscious values and behaviour in order to preserve the beauty, harmony and order of your lifestyle. Your shadow-side is a good deal coarser than you are, full of raw passions [...] A minor character You have a deep respect for the wisdom that is distilled from experience, and the traditional values which have been tested by time. You fear and despise wanton anarchy and chaos, and will never willingly destroy something simply because you disapprove of it; rather, [...] IV. The Family Background
In the complete horoscope analysis, this chapter deals with your family myths as well as with your perception of your parents and their relationship.Although you are an individual, you have emerged from a family background. Thus you contain certain inner patterns, myths and attitudes toward life which you have acquired from the psychological soil of this background. V. Relationship Patterns
This chapter describes attitudes, needs and characteristic patterns in close one-to-one relationships.Both astrology and psychology teach us that nothing that occurs within a relationship is chance. Your birth horoscope describes what you are like inside, and therefore what kind of patterns, needs and compulsions you are likely to bring into your relationships with others. Your extreme love of beauty and perfection results in your being inevitably attracted to the man who seems rougher, more primitive, more direct and somehow more brazenly honest than you. In fact you need a partner who can help you to unlock your rather inhibited but nevertheless considerable sensuality, and who can also teach you to say what you mean rather than embedding it in a series of clauses, equivocations and parentheses which would put a solicitor to shame. In return you can offer such [...] You have the gift of offering real friendship to those you love; and ultimately this may mean more to you and them, and endure longer, than more conventional or sentimental declarations of affection. You know how to let your man exist as a separate individual independent [...] VI. Paths toward Integration
The final chapter of the Psychological Horoscope Analysis contains insights into the potential for growth as shown in your birth chart.The following paragraphs provide some suggestions of ways in which conscious effort might make it possible for you to achieve greater harmony between the different components within yourself, and to strengthen that centre of the personality which psychology calls the ego, the "I". Appendix
These small samples from different chapters convey an impression of your personal Psychological Horoscope which comprises 18 - 25 pages. It can be ordered as an E-Horoscope or bound booklet in the Astroshop. Please read a complete sample report (of a different person) to get an overview of the extent of the complete horoscope.You may wish to take a look at the range of our reports.
