Powerful stuff!
Review By:Sarah on 9/18/2014
I received this trio as a gift, and I am so glad that I did! I was skeptical at first, every product on the market claims to work and doesn't... Story of my life. I live in southern Florida and work outside in the beautiful sunshine, all day. I use moisturizer and SPF, but I still noticed the effects of the sun. Fine lines, aging, and sun damage. Seeing as this was a huge and I had nothing to lose, I tried it out. Boy, was I ever amazed! I saw some brightening and small changes within a few days. However, the long term effects have been astonishing! You can't even tell that just a few months ago I had any signs of aging or sun damage!!! These products have completely renewed my skin and changed my life! They are truly amazing!

Richmond has not always been the capital of Virginia.
When the English colonists arrived in 1607, the paramount chief of the local tribes (Powhatan) ruled his territory (Tsenacommacah) from Werowocomoco, located on what we now call the York River. Powhatan's brother, Parahunt, ruled a subordinate town located at the base of the waterfalls on Powhatan's River (what we now call the James River).
In 1607, the English colonists established their official seat of government at Jamestown. That location was about 15 miles south of Parahunt's capital at Werowocomoco - but about 80 miles as a boat travels on the river.
The colonists shifted their capital in 1699 to Williamsburg, long after the remnants of the Algonquian-speaking natives had lost control over Tsenacommacah except for small reservations (including two that still remain, on the Pamunkey and Mattaponi rivers). In 1776, the rebellious Virginians declared Williamsburg to be the capital of an independent state (which the new state constitution labelled a "Commonwealth"). Independence changed the status, but not the location, of the capital in Williamsburg.
in 1780, Newcastle on the Pamunkey River in Hanover County was considered as a potential replacement site for Williamsburg; 25 years earlier, Richmond was not important enough to show on a map
Source: Library of Congress, Carte des possessions angloises & françoises du continent de l'Amérique septentrionale. Kaart van de Engelsche en Fransche bezittingen in het vaste land van Noord America (1755)
In 1780 the Virginians moved their state capital inland from Williamsburg to Richmond, in hopes that the new center of a revolutionary state government would be less vulnerable to British attack. Thomas Jefferson, governor at the time, later wrote:1
The tactic failed. The British successfully marched into Richmond twice in 1781 - but there were few state government buildings to destroy.
Virginia committed to a national government based on the Articles of Confederation, which the General Assembly ratified in 1778. The Articles finally went into effect after Maryland ratified them in 1781, creating the first version of the United States of America - but establishing the confederation had little impact on the status of Richmond. As the capital of the Commonwealth of Virginia, Richmond remained the capital of an independent state that was loosely allied with 12 other independent states.
On June 26, 1788, Virginia ratified the new US Constitution. With the creation of the new Federal government based on that document, Richmond became the capital of just one state, a subordinate government in the new national union. Depending upon how you view the Civil War, that status has never changed - or you can claim that the state capital moved again in 1861, 1863, and 1865.
If you adopt the Union perspective on the Civil War and the official role of the Restored Government of Virginia, the capital of Virginia shifted to Wheeling in 1861 after Virginia voted to secede from the Union. In 1863, West Virginia joined the Union as an independent state, so the capital of Virginia moved again to Alexandria. The last move was back to Richmond in 1865, after the defeat of the Confederate armies and the dissolution of the Confederate government.
the Confederate Congress met in the Virginia State Capitol building between 1861-1865
Source: The Photographic History of the Civil War, The Goal - The Confederate Capitol (p.282)
NOTE: The state capitol is the building that houses the Virginia General Assembly. The capital (spelled with an "a" instead of an "o") is the city in which the General Assembly meets. At the Federal Level, Washington DC is the capital city and the US Congress meets in the Capitol building. Charlottesville (May/June, 1781), Staunton (June, 1781), and Lynchburg (April, 1865) could claim to have served briefly as the capital city of Virginia, since some form of the General Assembly met there officially.

The District of Columbia was 100 square miles when established in 1800. The Virginia portion was "revested" in 1846, moving the boundary north to the low water mark of the Potomac River along the shoreline of Alexandria and what is today Arlington County.
In 1910, the District was in need of land for a prison. It initially purchased 1,500 acres downstream of Alexandria, but local objections forced the city to transfer the land to another Federal jurisdiction, the US Army. To supply water to Camp A. A. Humphreys (renamed Fort Belvoir in 1935), the Corps of Engineers built Lake Accotink in 1918.
The area was so rural that the camp could open the dam gates when Fort Belvoir needs more water and use Accotink Creek as an open pipeline. Today, the lake is a Fairfax County park.
To build a prison, the District then purchased land at Lorton. That too was "inappropriate" to Fairfax residents, and the various prisons built by the District at Lorton have been closed. The house with the quirky sign out front, "Prison View Estates," now faces a development and parkland known as Laurel Hill. Sic gloria transit.
County Seats
Political power is not concentrated exclusively in capitals. In Powhatan's day, each werowance had authority within his own town, though it was limited by the power of their paramount chief.
The English settled at Jamestown, and it was the initial center of government for the colony. John Smith sent some people to Kecoughtan in 1608, to spread out the colonists during a period of intense food shortage. The city now at that site, Hampton, claims to be the longest continuously-settled English speaking community in North America. [Henricus, the second town to be established by the colonists in 1610, was never re-settled after being destroyed in 1622 during a major attack by the Powhatans.]
After Lord de la Warre rescued the starving colonists in 1610, the population of Virginia remained concentrated along the James River. The London Company slightly decentralized the political authority in the colony with the initial creation of "hundreds," self-sufficient settlements that were required to be spaced several miles apart from each other.
The major decentralization of authority away from Jamestown started in 1618, when Governor Yeardley authorized local courts in Charles City and other "convenient places." In 1634, sixteen years later, the Generally Assembly created eight official "shires" (afterwards called "counties"). This established an official, but lower, level of colonial government outside of the capital.
County courthouses became key locations for executive, legislative, and judicial procedures. Colonial Virginians relied upon county courts for decisions that exceeded the authority of the landowners on individual plantations, but did not require the attention of the Governor, his Council, or the General Assembly. Colonial officials were all acting as proxies for the King, at least in theory. As power was decentralized throughout the colony, however, Virginia officials naturally responded more to the concerns of their neighbors than of a distant leader across the Atlantic.
The only officials elected by the local residents before 1776 were the two Burgesses to the General Assembly. The justices on the court were appointed by the Governor. If there was a vacancy, the local justices recommended possible replacements - but until 1851, the Governor decided who would be appointed. Justices with the highest social ranking were considered to be members of the "quorum," and all sessions had to include at least one member with that status.
The clerk of the court and the sheriff were appointed by the county court. They received no salary, but instead set fees for their services. The sheriff, for example, earned a fee for collecting taxes- and he earned nothing if he failed to collect...
What happened at the county courthouse? Typically, once a month the community would assemble there for one day to hear the justices of the county court:
There was no separation of powers, no separation between executive, legislative, and judicial authorities, at the county court. Though the vestry and the county court were separate organizations, overlapping membership was common - the small percentage of the population that were Virginia gentry controlled all official forms of authority in colonial society. There was a geographic separation of powers, however. The General Court (which met every quarter) and the General Assembly (which met roughly once a year) assembled in the capital, while the county courts normally met each month at the county seats.
It was convenient to have the courthouse accessible to the general population. New counties were formed when it became too burdensome for a large percentage of the population to travel in one day by horseback to the courthouse, and courthouses were often moved to new locations as population centers changed.
In an agricultural society with few "central places," the county court days provided rare opportunities for farmers to assemble, buy or sell items, and break the monotony of rural living. Taverns supplied food, drink, and lodging... merchants opened stables and stores... and towns grew up around most of Virginia's courthouses.

Horses are absolutely beautiful creatures and you would not consider a career in horse management if you did not have a passion for them. There are many options in horse management from horse training, horse grooming, a farm hand, foaling attendant, a breeding assistant, a stable helper, horse racing, equine health and an exercise rider, not to mention general care of a horse.
To begin a career in horse management, you must first decide in which capacity you are interested in. Special classes and schools can help you to achieve your goal in working with horses. Unless you are going into veterinary medicine, horse management is not always the highest paying career path, at least until you are an experienced equestrian handler. Your choice is due to your overall love and passion of this magnificent creature.
Studying in the field of horse management may include such lessons as distinguishing the different breeds of horses, proper care and maintenance of a horse such as feeding, grooming, housing, the health of a horse as well as the type of equipment it may use. Equestrian learning may also include horse behavior as well as safe handling of the animal. You will need to respect the horse and learn the how to safely be around this enormous, beautiful animal.
Depending on the career path in horse management, you may also learn horsemanship and special techniques in riding a horse. You may learn the full anatomy of the horse, with full knowledge of the limbs and hooves. It may be important to study the full physiological aspects of each leg and hoof, including trimming and shoeing techniques. Caring for horse hooves is extremely important for the well-being of the horse.
Special careers are also available for the special individuals who want to work with therapy horses working with disabled people. Classes may include understanding how to handle, select and care for a particular therapy horse. You will also learn the types of therapy that horses are used for, the types of physical, mental and emotional disabilities of the special needs people as well as professionals that work in these types of equine therapy sessions. Advanced courses are available in this field as well if it is your passion to work with horses as well as the disabled. You can get registered and certified in this field.
Caring for horses takes time and commitment. These are great companion animals that require regular exercise for good health. Horses love human interaction and can get easily bored without it. Learn how to pasture a horse, how much space is required for a horse, types of grasses and plants to have and not have - there are many poisonous plants to keep out of pastures.
Learning proper care includes proper shelter for a horse, proper feed, bedding, the appropriate tools necessary to brush a horse and overall health, hygiene and cleanliness for the horse, the barn or stable and the pasture where horses reside. A career in animal technology and horse management provides you with a firm background in equestrian care, science, health and handling.

HTC One sales doubled to 1.2 million in May, but analysts expect no further growth

The HTC One is obviously a big success for ailing HTC and the latest estimates show sales of the flagship doubled sequentially to reach 1.2 million in May…

Marketing is a big key if you want to make more sales. If Samsung didn't advertise heavily last year,it would not have achieved the number of sales it is currently having now
9. jdoee100 (Posts: 334; Member since: 04 Jun 2013)
What do you have against advertising? If samsung wants to spend millions of dollars for ads, then it's their business. Microsoft(surface), nokia(lumia), sony spent millions on ads, it didn't do them squat. If you don't have quality product, it doesn't matter whether you spend millions on ads. It's not going to sell.
29. kamejoko (Posts: 204; Member since: 10 Nov 2011)
That's mean with china products with big marketing, will you buy?.
41. xoatomxo (Posts: 57; Member since: 26 Apr 2011)
Nope. That's why I don't buy HTC's
39. ihatesmartphone (unregistered)
Samsung have a huge of profit and also a big company...
That's why they can invest heavily in marketing
This what htc missing...

Its their job to say soemthing about someone, they just do the math and predicts. sometimes it happen, sometime it doesn't.. Lets see...
4. VZWuser76 (Posts: 4214; Member since: 04 Mar 2010)
So they're not going to sell any when it launches on Verizon?

Finally, we can put htc one selling 5mi myth to rest.
17. RaKithAPeiRiZ (Posts: 1488; Member since: 29 Dec 2011)
1.2 mil in a month
22. jdoee100 (Posts: 334; Member since: 04 Jun 2013)
0.6mi(April) + 1.2 mi(May) =
Total = 1.8mi
23. kamejoko (Posts: 204; Member since: 10 Nov 2011)
Yes. I don't know why htc said sold 5 Mi htc one?.
26. SleepingOz (unregistered)
That would probably explain why their employees are leaving and encouraging their fellow co-workers to do the same.

"That would mean that with the addition of the first week of June around 2 million HTC Ones were sold, which fits-in nicely with the revenue increase HTC posted in May but drastically contradicts previous reports that HTC has sold 5 million One units."

at least read the headline clearly .........
21. SleepingOz (unregistered)
I have read the complete article. They said that the sales of the HTC One has DOUBLED TO REACH 1.2m in May, which means that they haven't sold 5m like the HTC exec claimed.
32. number29 (Posts: 185; Member since: 25 Jan 2013)
Are you quite sure it doesn't mean that in April HTC sold 600,000 Ones and this doubled to selling 1.2million in May (so a combined 1.8million over the 2 month period)?
10. guest (Posts: 338; Member since: 13 Jun 2012)
It just launched in T-Mobile this week and will launch on Verizon later this month and that's not going to sell more units? Riiiiiiigggggghhhhhhttttt.
12. Jonathan41 (Posts: 532; Member since: 22 Mar 2012)
Samsung has so much marketing power that it is hard to compete at all but, HTC has taken them on year after year and finally their getting some well deserved recognition for their hard work in the way of sales. No matter how the rest of the year turns out, HTC has proved that it is still a very capable company. I am proud of them and what they have been able to do with the One against all odds. Keep it up HTC.
15. smallworld (Posts: 484; Member since: 13 Jul 2012)
Apparently the news that HTC sold 5 million were false. Someone from HTC said : "That number comes from the same unnamed source that is referenced throughout the WSJ article. Unfortunately, that isn't an official figure" So it looks like they some less than 5 million.

I expected some unknown newspaper to write about unsubstantiated rumor like this, not WSJ. I guess media's standards have fallen with their revenue.

Here's what HTC needs. It looks good, but it need to look more aggressive as far as appeal. It looks a little too bland and blends in with the competition.
Give us what we want. After the Rezound, I knew things were going to start dropping heavily.
More colors, attractive design, and more importantly, some really good features!
The S4 is packed with tons of small features that make it stand out.
Even if some arent used daily, they are still there if you need them.
HTC also tends to forget their devices. When I had the Incredible, I loved it. It was one of the best and the best when it came out. They took years to upgrade to gingerbread and when they finally did, it was already old firmware.
This is why HTC is failing on top of marketing.

Galaxy S4 10M+ sales vs HTC One 1.2M+ sales, Its a long way....

HTC has a definitely hit with the One, no doubt about that. BUT, it hard to feel sorry for HTC because they were on top just 3 short years ago. They blew their own lead and handed the crown to Samsung. Many of us waited for a decent HTC, with a lighter UI that would actually get supported. It didn't happen. And they ruined their own brand, similar to what the analysts are saying about Samsung and the S4 with it's many variaties. Don't get me wrong, I hope they do well because the One deserves the recognition its getting, but they blew it for themselves and marketing was only a small part of the reason.

I want an HTC One and an iPhone 5S at the same time. The HTC One looks and feels so good and I actually like the Blinkfeed very well; it reminds me of how my Flipboard is setup.

How can analysts expect no further growth when Verizon and many countries in the world are still waiting for this phone?

They say 1,2 mill , and not sold , but shiped. (not 5 mill as the iMedia lie)
Samsung have 10++mill .
So it's 10 times more.

HTC will find it hard to compete and it's not down to publicity/marketing of their devices alone. The problem is the phones are overpriced where I come from and this is because they aren't shipping devices to developing countries because they don't see the potential of sales which is rather unfortunate. They grossly undersetimate the buying power of developing countries whereas Samsung launches their devices from mid to high end and are selling bucket loads of phones here. By comparison a HTC One cost almost twice the price of a galaxy S4 here which i imagine is due to poor distribution of the HTC One. Blackberry on the other hand currently has higher sales and user margins than even android here even though internationally they are hanging by a thread, still the brand is taking advantage of some degree of local dominance and the launch of BB10 is pushing that bar even higher.
Besides i don't have fond memories of my experience from my last HTC device (HTC Legend, Desire HD) and even when I remotely consider buying one I don't see the sense in paying more for it. I wish them best of luck in their quest for survival and relevance in the mobile industry

I had a gs3 until the q10 was released (tmobile) but with not being able to sideload instagram or amazon mp3 I couldn't take it so I returned it for the HTC one. I've never had an HTC phone always had a galaxy phone. I'm not sure why people complain so much. I love this phone, only complaint would be I want it in black

HTC needs to understand one simple thing and that's tech blogs don't sell phones. The day it decides to start putting out phones with a narrative compelling and diverse enough to appeal to a wide enough enough base, then it's fortunes will truly turn around. No point making phones that only enthusiasts want to buy. Raw specs and nothing much else. Add to that a very prescriptive design and you can see why so few choose to buy it.
not good enough, Sony even sold 4 times as many Zs in the same time period. I predicted this all along

In an > ideal world where people already understood the threats and > the appropriate countermeasures, a mandatory bookmark would > not seem strange, but that's the not the world we are dealing with. Just tossing out a different idea for folks to reject, let me guess at a characterisation of a typical user and see if we can build something a little better but reasonably comfortable for him. Characterisation: Looking at my own behavior, I am almost always accessing my services from one of a tiny number of computers that could easily have the bookmarks on board. But once in a long while I want to use a service from someone else's computer in a far away place. Now, in a world where webkeys were common, I might carry all the webkeys on a thumb drive -- and indeed, a sensible user interface would, I submit, encourage the user, as part of the setup process, to Save Bookmark To Flash Drive (or Save Bookmark To Cell Phone, which would produce a text message to the phone number of the user's choice), in which case I might even be reliable about it now :-) But for today, we still need another mechanism for the rare remote access -- but since it is rare, so I would tolerate a tiny amount of hassle as long as it wasn't too weird. In this case, suppose we take a page from the "Forgot your password?" folks. Have a public memorable page into which you simply type your email address, and the system sends an appropriate webkey to that email. Then you log into your email account using the email system signon-password, and click the link in the new message. This way, you are not adding yet another !@#$ password to the poor user's woes. To me, this seems not a hassle. Particularly if the user interface were streamlined to make it clear that this was a perfectly fine, natural, normal way of operating (as opposed to the "forgot your password" negotiation, which always makes you feel like a fool for having forgotten the random string that the computer should have remembered for you in the first place). Indeed, it seems much better than not a hassle -- it takes the way people normally work and embraces it (I have stopped keeping lists of passwords for places I go to only rarely and so can never remember the name -- instead, I always just hit "forgot my password"). As a system designer, an interesting question to me is, should the webkey sent in the email be the original, raw, full-power webkey, or should it be a membrane? The security guy in me says "membrane", but the cooperation guy in me says "raw": if it is a membrane, then if you share an attenuated authority with someone from this remote session, everyone may be surprised that it is not persistent. But it gives you some protection from the remote computer, in which you may have limited trust. You could, of course, give the user a choice of membrane or raw in the "send to email" page, but that is probably over the top on expecting users to understand their choices. Perhaps the answer is to default to raw (no surprises), and allow users with security concerns to specify membraned in a preferences page (such a preference page should not, incidentally, be accessible via the membrane :-). --marcs

Doppelganger: from Poe to Facebook
|Obama's Celebrity Collage
Early last week Facebook was frenzied by members eager to find their celebrity doppelganger. MyHeritage's Celebrity Look-alike application helped many find their celebrity double. Our web application has a unique ability to survey the human face and compare it to a database of thousands of celebrities, helping you find the perfect virtual match!
Finding your alternate has long held a special place in the heart of mankind. Psychologists tend to pin it to the evolution of self-awareness, which trends back into early human history. This enormous history arc was formed in part by Greek mythology and the story of Narcissus, who fell in love with his own reflection cast on a pond. And Krishna, whose outlandish self-admiration set him to search for his qualities manifest in his mates. Or simply take a look at art commissioned by royalty or nobles dating to early civilization, where you will find figureheads that are painted or sculpted according to their projected demeanor; at once similar in formal features as dissimilar in their portrayal of desired self.

Reification and anonymous resources are two of the more interesting features of RDF --- an emerging standard for representing semantic information on the Web. Ironically, when RDF was standardized by W3C over three years ago, it came without a semantics. There is now growing understanding that a Semantic Web language without a semantics is an oxymoron, and a number of efforts are directed towards giving RDF a precise semantics.
In this paper we propose a simple semantics for reification and anonymous resources in F-logic --- a frame-based logic language, which is a popular formalism for representing and reasoning about semantic information on the Web.
The choice of F-logic (over RDF) as a basis for our semantics is motivated by the fact that F-logic provides a comprehensive solution for the problem of integrating frames, rules, and deduction, and it has been shown to provide an effective inference service for RDF.

The January Effect
|Email Print
Being that it's now January again, I thought we should take a look at something known as the January Effect – when stocks see increases in January for a variety of reasons. If you were to buy into the smallest 10% of U.S. stocks on the last day of December each year and then sold a month later, you would earn an average return of 11.3% (in that one month!) going all the way back to 1926. You read that right, the January effect, at least empirically, is very real and very lucrative. So, why doesn't everyone do it? It's because the smallest 10% are utter crap and it's a case of statistics being twisted to show what people, financial people, want them to show. The best example from a two-year old article is of a software company called OCG Technology that spiked 2400% in January of 1992 (incidentally, it's not around anymore under that same name).
There are other reasons why the January Effect doesn't really work such as commissions and the fact that some of these companies have such low trade volume that any action would severely mess up the numbers. The article states that even if you were to pay only 12.5 cents a share, it would drop your return from 11.3% to a mere 2.4%.
Now that you know it's really a bunch of statistical hocus pocus, I thought I'd go into the biggest theory as to why the January Effect may be legitimate. It has to do with the whole tax wash rule where you can use your losses to offset your gains. The theory is that there will be some investors out there who are selling, thus suppressing the price of the stock, and then re-buying one month later. Now extrapolate that to the bigger fish, such as mutual funds, and you can start to see why people start believing in the January Effect.
So, can you take advantage of the January Effect? Doesn't look like it…{ 4 comments, please add your thoughts now! }

HEREFORD - Eldon Fortenberry crafts worn-out boots into pieces of art.
Then he gives some of his handiwork to organizations to use at fundraising auctions.
"My first love is to give them away, but once in a while I need to sell one to keep up with my expenses," said Fortenberry, who works in his Hereford residence.
His handmade gifts have generated between $40,000 and $50,000 for organizations over the dozen years or so he has donated them, he estimated Friday.
"I've been into giving all my life to different things," he said. "These are all deserving fundraisers. It's not like I'm giving away a great amount of money. Everything normally brings far more than it should."
Fortenberry said one of his stars brought a bid of $550 at a fundraising auction.
"I'm real fortunate to get locked into some good charities because it's good for them and it's good for me because of giving them away I actually make a sale once in a while," he said.
He credits Jerry Brock, a salesman at Christian radio station KNAK in Hereford, with finding the right organizations to receive the gifts.
"If I didn't have Jerry Brock to help me, a lot of worthy organizations would have to do without," Fortenberry said.
Fortenberry gives special support to the Hereford Senior Citizens Center and King's Manor Methodist Retirement System in Hereford, he said.
Shelly Moss, executive director at King's Manor said, "He has been a supporter of King's Manor for years and years. He's very generous. He has given us a lot of unique items that he makes himself."
His work includes crosses, frames, table lamps, a hat tree and even a coffee table.
"I dream up some things and some are suggested," Fortenberry said.
He takes the toes and tops from discarded boots and forms them to fit over wood in the shape of a cross or star.
When he began making stars, he used the toes of old boots to cover the five points.
"As I did more, I learned how to use the boot top as a toe," he said.
Each of his items is unique because of the wide variety of leather patterns and colors used to make western boots, he said.
The exceptions might be his university-themed stars, which he makes in the colors of West Texas A&M, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Texas and Oklahoma, complete with logos.
He sells the university stars for about $60. He said his cost for the stars, which he makes in 24-inch and 32-inch sizes, ranges from $35 to $40.
Fortenberry said he finds his boots at thrift stores in Hereford, Amarillo, Plainview and Lubbock.
"I've bought as many as 100 pair of boots in a week," he said, and he usually pays $5 or $6 per pair.
"Seldom do I get a free pair of boots," he said.
Fortenberry used to go shopping for boots every two months until surgery on both knees over the last three months slowed down the 71-year-old who has been a farmer, home-repair man, fence builder and roofer. He currently runs a scrap-metal business on his property. He can be reached at (806) 364-6405.
He and his wife, Nelda, moved to Hereford in 1972 from a farm near Lockney.
"My wife gets the best of everything I make," Fortenberry said. "She has several stars in the house and one of every kind of cross that I've ever made. I think that coffee table has 27 pairs of boots on it."
Nelda Fortenberry said she is fully supportive of her husband's artistic and philanthropic endeavors.
"You can see I am because I have all this hanging around in the house," she said. "It keeps him busy and it keeps him happy, so that's OK."

Good afternoon
No reason to stay inside, not with that concert going on at Alden Field tonight starting at 7 p.m.
Twenty-two singers, each better than the other.
Call it dinner theater, since the refreshment stand will be open with a ton of dinner food fare.

An historic former school out in the country with plenty of open air all around and no rotten buildings nearby and it's for sale for $250,000 by a one-square-mile borough willing to work with you.
That's the old Shiloh school.
The crime is, they spent all that money on Vine Street School in Bridgeton after the pigeons and the elements had full throttle to it.
And the fortress that is 48-year-old Shiloh School just sits there needing a new roof and it's cherry.
If you let your property get overgrown in Shiloh, they'll take care of it for you.
And charge you $800.
And they'll just add it to your taxes as a lien.
So it pays to cut your grass.

We're anxiously awaiting word from James Singleton on his 17-year quest to get a rating on his post traumatic stress disorder from the Vietnam War.
The Rosenhayn resident has long been diagnosed with the disorder and now veterans liaison to Congressman Frank LoBiondo's office, Mike Francis, is trying to help.
"When we sugarcoat the problem, there is nothing wrong with going back and looking at things he right way,'' Dee Batten told Bridgeton City Council Tuesday night.
"There were a lot of things that got out of control and a lot of things that were told and I feel good about coming back.
"We all need to work together, and not make fun of people and not say that doesn't matter.
"We need to get more people out to city council meetings because they may not agree with what has happened. We're taxpayers and we deserve to come up and tell you how we feel.
"And let us know how you feel.
"I'm glad I took the first step.
"When you have a job to do, don't sugarcoat it.'
"If it's wrong, it's not right. Fix it. Get the job done.
"Irt helps to be a good listener.
"Good listeners get the job done.
"I'm back and I don't know if things will get done.''
Dee had a problem with her next door neighbor's rental and sought help from code enforcement and wound up getting blamed as blowing the whistle, and that cost her a friendship and upset the normalcy in the neighborhood.
It didn't end until Dee contacted the landlord on her own, as did Council President Jack Surrency, and the landlord found out the truth.
That Dee was trying to help him.
That it shouldn't have turned into a problem that was sugarcoated.
Translated: Not handled.
Not city council's fault.
Dee will be at the CrabFest and bringing people with her.

Religious leaders rally against planned pipeline
FRANKFORT, Ky. — A group of Catholic nuns who successfully redirected the route of a proposed pipeline off their land in Kentucky are joining other religious leaders protesting the ongoing project.
The Sisters of Loretto, along with members of Baptist, Presbyterian and Unitarian churches, delivered a 36,000-signature petition to Gov. Steve Beshear's office at the state Capitol last week. The group of about 50 demonstrators called on the governor to oppose the project. They say the pipeline, which would carry flammable natural gas liquids through 14 counties, is a threat to the environment.
An office staffer accepted the petition from the group as they gathered inside the governor's office and sang a religious hymn.
The company building the Bluegrass Pipeline is securing easements along the project's proposed 180-mile path in Kentucky.
Legislative prayer gets Supreme Court review
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court is weighing the constitutionality of a town council's opening prayers.
The case being argued last week involves prayers offered by local clergy at the start of town council meetings in Greece, N.Y.
A federal appeals court said they violated the Constitution because nearly every prayer in an 11-year span was overtly Christian.
The city is being backed by the Obama administra-tion and many conservative groups in arguing that the court settled this issue 30 years ago when it held that an opening prayer is part of the nation's fabric and not a violation of the First Amendment.
On the other side are two town residents who sued over the prayers and the liberal groups that support them.

JERSEY SHORE - Through a new program, students at Jersey Shore Area Middle School who are ahead on studies still are given the opportunity to challenge themselves, but it's not in math or science.
Music enrichment classes are offered to eighth-grade students who scored advanced on their state System of School Assessments for the first time this past school year. Laura Milarch, school principal, explained that students are able to take the classes during an enrichment period, when students who need extra help in other courses get the help needed.
The courses allow students to learn new skills and challenge them.
"I just wanted to make sure that they have that enrichment," Milarch said.
The school's music teachers, Andrea Miller and Jeff Dent, teach the courses. Miller teaches keyboarding and Dent teaches guitar.
"It's awesome. It's so wonderful, it really is. The class kind of morphs organically so the class has gone in directions that I never expected," Miller said.
Students are able to take the courses for each quarter, if they choose. Miller said she has had many students stick with the class the entire school year. Students are not graded in the class.
And although students now can play the instruments, Miller said that most entered the course at the beginning of the school year with very little experience, only ever taking the school's general music class that all students are required to take.
But now Miller sees students now have a genuine interest in the subject.
"I see them being life-long piano players just for pleasure, which makes me excited," she said of her students.
Miller is most excited about the fact that students not only want to be in the class but learn and grow. She added that the classes use both traditional and non-traditional types of music.
"They just all want to work," she said. "They're so hungry. They keep wanting me to give them more and more."
But she also gives students the ability to explore the material.
"I challenge them but then I give them time to do what they want, as well," Miller explained.
Miller added that it's important for students to develop a love of the arts through education.
"I just think it's important. It makes you a well-rounded person and it gives you an appreciation (of the arts)," she said. " Art education, in general, is important to make well-rounded individuals in society."

Talk about a pretty baby!
Gisele Bündchen proves that she had the modeling gene even at age 1.
This is a first look at a series of photos being released on the supermodel's Facebook fanpage for her 31st birthday on July 20.
Bündchen, left, and her twin sister Patricia, posed for the shots on their first birthday. The image, dated July 20, 1981, is captioned in Portuguese: "It's been one year from the day we were born. Look at our picture and see how we've grown up."
"I think family is the base to everything," Bündchen told PEOPLE. "I think that is one of the things I'm most grateful for. I have a lot to be grateful for but I think having a wonderful family is definitely number one."
She became a mom, with husband Tom Brady, to son Benjamin in Dec. 2009.

At that time, I was working for a well-known Vietnamese state-owned enterprise in a stable position and comparatively high salary but it was not quite the work I wanted to do. The UNV opportunity on offer began to interest me and I thought why don't change my life a bit and give this a try.
When I brought my opinion home, my parents got angry. They could not understand why I want to be a volunteer. "It is not a job, and you will get nothing for yourself", they said. "Moreover everybody works for money. How can you make a living without a salary?"
I acquired my Masters degree in Development Economics participating in a joint programme offered by the Hanoi National Economics University and the Institute of Social Studies in The Hague, Netherlands. Then I was accepted to work in a state-owned enterprise after having passed several successful exams. Many people were impressed about my success. My parents and friends congratulated me and thought I am very lucky. However after a short time, I realized that my daily work was quite different field from what I have been trained. I felt that I was unable to continue developing my skills, and, that in turn I could not contribute much to my work. I thus decided to look for a more suitable environment for me to work more and to contribute more. The opportunity associate myself with UNV, volunteering to support a cultural heritage preservation project in my country looked like a possibility for a turning point in my life.
I was a bit anxious about what my parents would say. I didn't know whether I should try the opportunity. I may not need money for a period of time but volunteering would be meaningless if I could do nothing for myself. I visited the website of UNV Vietnam, talked to some friends, read newsletters on what UN Volunteers do and I realized that volunteering is what I long for. Fortunately my husband has supported and encouraged me a lot, which helped me a lot to participate in UNV activities.
Gradually, I recognize that volunteering for development -- the concept UNV promotes -- has brought me more than I could possibly expect. I can practice what I have learned in my studies of development economics. I can develop my knowledge and skills to prepare for a better job and further studies. I have the opportunity to work in a multicultural environment which helps me practice my English every day and understand more about the culture and peoples of many countries in the world. I can contribute to the sustainable development of my country through my daily work in heritage preservation. And, maybe most importantly I am involved in a field of development work and with people I am really interested in. I feel satisfied with my life.
I have the opportunity to share my ideas with youth volunteers engaging in the YVCHP project when I come to Hue and recently in meetings of the UN Volunteers. We exchange ideas and concerns about nature and mission of volunteers, that volunteerism is based on free will, engagement, commitment and consolidation of volunteers and that volunteerism makes important contributions, economically and socially, to more cohesive societies by building trust and reciprocity among citizens. Although each of us feels the benefits in different ways, I believe that for people who really want to engage and contribute to a better future, participating in the UN Volunteers programme's activities is a good chance. This is definitely so in my case.

—To determine the incidence, 1-year prevalence, and cumulative prevalence of domestic violence (DV) among female emergency department (ED) patients.
—Descriptive written survey.
—Two teaching EDs, two hospital walk-in clinics, and one private hospital ED in Denver, Colo.
—Of 833 women presenting during 30 randomly selected 4-hour time blocks, 648 (78%) agreed to participate. Most respondents were young (median age, 34 years) and unemployed (62%); half (49%) had annual household incomes less than $10000.
Main Outcome Measures.
—Domestic violence was defined as an assault, threat, or intimidation by a male partner. Acute DV (incidence) and past DV exposure (1-year prevalence and cumulative prevalence) were determined.
—The incidence of acute DV among the 418 women with a current male partner was 11.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 8.7% to 15.2%). Only 11 (23%) of these 47 women subjected to acute DV presented for care because of trauma, and only six (13%) either told staff about DV or were asked about DV by ED professionals. Among 230 women without current partners, 13 (5.6%) reported an episode of DV within the previous 30 days. For the entire sample, the cumulative lifetime prevalence of DV exposure was 54.2% (95% CI, 50.2% to 58.1%). Women exposed to acute or prior DV were more likely than unexposed women to have made suicide attempts (26% vs 8%; P<.001) and to report excessive ethanol use (24% vs 13%; P=.001).
—The incidence of acute DV is not as common among women visiting an ED as previously reported, although the cumulative prevalence of DV is strikingly high. Women who have experienced DV are seldom identified by ED professionals.(JAMA. 1995;273:1763-1767)

From The Wall Street Journal:

Arms From Libya Used in Algeria Raid
By MARGARET COKER
Weapons looted from Libya were among the arms that Islamist terrorists used in their attack at an Algerian gas facility, according to Algerian officials and weapons experts examining evidence in the aftermath of the hostage crisis.
The four-day siege at the remote natural-gas complex in Algeria's southern desert showed how resurgent al Qaeda-linked militants can use limited amounts of conventional arms to wreak havoc across North Africa
Algerian officials said that some of the assault rifles and hand-held rocket launchers used in the assault likely came from Libyan weapons caches amassed by Moammar Gadhafi before his fall. Those stockpiles were looted by Libyan militias and arms traffickers in the chaos that followed his overthrow in 2011.
The officials, speaking to Algerian media, didn't provide specifics as to their deductions. However, two weapons experts with knowledge of the Gadhafi-era arsenals said that assault rifles shown on Algerian state television as belonging to the militant cell were likely the same variation of Kalashnikov assault rifle used by Gadhafi's special forces.
Belgian-made antitank land mines recovered from the militants by the Algerian forces appear to match the same model of mine found in Gadhafi's military stockpiles, according to these experts, who studied the displays of weaponry assembled by Algerian forces and broadcast on Algerian TV on Monday.
The antitank mines aren't common in the arsenals of any other North African government, the experts said.
Algerian Prime Minister Abdelmalek Sellal said on Monday that the militants used C5 missile launchers to attack the oil facility, which is near the Libyan border. Such C5s were used by Libyan rebels, who mounted them on the backs of pickup trucks, according to French and Algerian military experts.
While Libya has managed to transform itself into a faltering democracy in the wake of its revolution, it has also become an "ammunition supermarket" feeding the al Qaeda-linked militants who reside in the lawless North African deserts linking Libya, Chad, Niger, Algeria and Mali, according to Max Dyck, the head of the United Nations Mine Action Program in Libya.
Algerian officials have long complained that the hundreds of miles of largely unguarded border with Libya have been rife with arms traffickers and criminal smugglers since the fall of Gadhafi.
The new Libyan Prime Minister Ali Zidan declared the border a closed military zone in December 2012, in efforts to stanch the flow of weapons. This month he met with his Algerian counterpart to work on a strategy of stepped-up border surveillance.
A senior Obama administration official called the outflow of fighters and weapons from Libya the game changer that empowered rebels in Mali and "tipped the balance" there. Officials said the U.S. could do little to stop the passage of arms and fighters crisscrossing porous borders en route to Mali's north.
Algerian officials blamed the attack there on Mali-based terrorist Mokhtar Belmokhtar and his militia, al Mouthalimin, or Those Who Sign with Blood, the group that claimed responsibility for the attack.
The group is an affiliate of al Qaeda in the Maghreb, which is now fighting French and African forces in Mali. Mr. Belmokhtar and AQIM have filled their arsenals with weapons pillaged from Libya, residents of the region and State Department officials said.
By November 2011, members of AQIM were boasting to African journalists that weapons from Libya would give them an advantage in their insurgencies. "It's totally natural we benefited from Libyan arms in such conditions," Mr. Belmokhtar told a Mauritanian newspaper in 2011.

Rolling Meadows, ILL, and Ashburton, England, Feb 22, 2013 - Cambium Networks™, a leading provider of IP wireless broadband access and transport solutions, has introduced the GIGATOWER™, a new wireless broadband access solution that delivers the industry's highest level of throughput for enterprises and triple-play service providers worldwide. Based on the Canopy point-to-multipoint (PMP) 450 platform, the GIGATOWER enables service providers to further expand capacity to existing customers and offer high capacity broadband to new customers in urban, suburban and rural environments. Cambium will be showcasing the new GIGATOWER solution at the 2013 Mobile World Congress (MWC) conference, taking place Feb. 25 – 28 in Barcelona, Spain; Hall 5, Stand 5B102.
Service providers and network operators around the globe use PMP access networks to provide significantly higher bandwidth in non-line-of-sight (NLoS) and line-of-sight (LoS) applications. Utilizing both licensed and unlicensed bands, Canopy's installed base of four million modules provides broadband services for demanding enterprise and residential use. For those looking to deploy a more extensive network, the PMP 450's modular design allows the GIGATOWER to provide more than 1 gigabit of broadband capacity and extend coverage area to more than 75 square miles (120 square kilometers).
"Service providers need innovative solutions to deliver broadband to their users. Fiber/DSL is an expensive solution that lacks symmetrical capability. It has generally been deployed where it's economically viable, leaving many customers underserved (unable to achieve the speeds and symmetry they desire) and unserved due to their proximity to fiber. The PMP 450 and new GIGATOWER offer the ability to deploy in greenfield locations or to overlay existing DSL footprint with a solution that delivers HD video and IPTV, voice and data services at a cost point that truly changes broadband economics," said Jay Hilbert, senior vice president of Global Sales, Cambium Networks. "We are also introducing an entirely new architecture, the PTP-C ™, (Point-to-Point Cluster) for small cell backhaul among other applications. It's our more than 10 years' experience as the wireless IP market leader and our deep engineering expertise in NLoS and interference mitigation that have enabled us to redefine the function and form factor that will revolutionize how small cell backhaul will be deployed in years to come."
Service Providers Worldwide Turning to Cambium Networks
Among the most innovative broadband providers using the PMP 450 is JAB Broadband, a wireless service provider based in the U.S. JAB is also the first service provider to roll out the new GIGATOWER solution, providing a cost-effective way for the company to reach underserved (customers not able to obtain the speeds they need from DSL) and unserved customers.
"The Canopy PMP 450 platform enables speed and unprecedented NLoS capability," said Bret Westwood, chief technical manager, vice president of network operations, JAB Broadband. "The performance of our network improved by up to five times since deploying the PMP 450. By incorporating the PMP 450 and new GIGATOWER configuration, we can guarantee the performance our enterprise and residential customers are looking for. Our enterprise business has been growing significantly as businesses realize that ADSL cannot meet their need for speed or their desire for symmetrical solutions to support cloud computing and video conferencing. Our investment in Cambium Networks continues to deliver big returns."
Backhaul Solutions Support Small Cells and LTE Deployments
Carriers are also aggressively employing small cells to increase capacity in urban areas and provide coverage where gaps exist. Cambium enables carriers to rapidly deploy reliable small cell backhaul or macro-base station LTE backhaul solutions that can connect where fiber and copper are not available or cost prohibitive. During the 2013 MWC, Cambium will be rolling out a unique and revolutionary solution for small-cell backhaul.

If the Premier League wanted a marquee season for its 20th year, they certainly received more than they bargained for in what turned out to be a real humdinger, going right down to the wire from top to bottom. Many a pub conversation has trundled across the "which is better, the English or the Spanish league" debate, well if we have learnt anything from this year, it's that this Premier League is far from predictable, which possibly is no longer a characteristic of La Liga.

Very durable string
User: alok, TX
I have tested a lot of strings - Head sonic, RPM blast, Pro hurricane tour racket - Head Prestige Pro and Midplus at usually around 50-52Lbs. Although I dont break the strings that often, the other strings go dead and lose feel much faster than Pro Line-II. This string is durable and retains the feel much longer. they are decent for spin and power and probably not one of the best, but it scores decently well on most of the parameters, if not the best.
String review
User: John, MO
3.5 level player, been using these strings in my mains for about a month. Love the feel, response, and havent noticed any drop in power. The only issue I have is the strings have been moving a little. Strung them at 54 tension. Chose these for improved feel and control, and they have responded. Very satisfied overall.

Farmer: Without illegal immigrants, strawberry farms fail
A crackdown on illegal immigrants would put local strawberry farmers out of business.
That's what one leading farmer in Skagit County told the Bellingham Herald.
Steve Sakuma is a co-owner of Sakuma Brothers Farms and a main supplier for Haagen-Dazs ice cream. He checks the ID of his 230 strawberry pickers, but he admits many of those ID's are probably fake. His farm was raided a few years ago and some workers were deported.
A proposal in Congress would require electronic verification of ID's. Sakuma says he's been unable to get local legal residents to apply for this work, even though he's paying $10 an hour. Other western Washington farmers say they're in the same situation.
The E-verify program is meant to ensure all workers are legal residents. It's currently voluntary for employers.
