Search entire category for Personal Loans
Personal loans are available in Tifton. This is a loan given to an individual for a specified or nonspecified purpose. In this case, a bank or a financial insitution gives a payment of money or credit. Some types of personal loans include mortgage loans, car loans, home equity lines of credit, credit cards, installment loans and payday loans. The amount of loan that one can qualify for, the rate of interest and underwriting of the loan depends largely on the credit score of the individual- the higher the credit score, the better the chances of getting a low interest loan. The interest rates are also lower for a long term loan, though in money term you would have to pay more.

I had bought it 1 week and 3 day's ago.... I was had a oily, pimpled skin. My face was Dark. But, After using it now I am feeling some change in my face. Pimple went away in 4 day's. My skin is more sensitive then before. I love it. Awesome!!!!!
I have extremely sensitive skin and really bad acne. I bought this 2 weeks ago and is almost cleared up perfectly. I wash my face 2x a day and I use clear proof toner from Mary Kay and Neutrogena benzoyl peroxide the one that works in 2 hours and I use the Mary Kay clear proof moisturizer and my skin has never been better. I've had terrible acne since 7th grade and now it isn't dry and it isn't oily it feels so much better!
my bestfriend had this facewash and we were camping and i had forgot mine, being so.desprate i used this for 2 nights then when i got home and stopped using it i.broke out and didnt.know why being dumb i went and.bought this stuff.because it did.help my skin when i used it and i wasnt sure if that was the exact reason why i broke out. any who after finishing this facewash i didnt use anymore and my.skin.i.guess relied on it and made my face so.horrible it took forever to recover . i will never use it agian
I honestly believe by the results from this product that it is for only oily/ combo skin. It could have a bad effect on sensitive and dry skin due to the fact that it dries excessively deep into the pores. For some skin it could be to strong. For oily skin like mine especially in the T zone it seems just enough strength to keep the oil balance in my skin. I would recommend it to only oily/ comb skin.
i used thus product for a month and did see an improvement. my acne bumps got smaller but the red spots were still visible.
I haven't used this product long but in the time that I have it has only made my acne worse! It has also caused my skin to become more irritated. I wouldn't recommend this product for anybody with sensitive skin.
i cant stress enough about this benzoly perxiode how ever u spell it dries out ur skin andmakes it worst and oily use stuff on ur skin ur would eat eaty eating habits and drinking lots of water i have tried this and BUNCH OF DRUG STORE PRODUCTS im 13 yrs old and even has tried epiduo and got a chemical burn from it absoulty horriable
ive started using raw oats and baking soday as a wash in the shower and leave it on for a little bit but also i use a honey and cimmon mask and just bough some mankua honey ive seen a difference in like 4 days already, and i use braggs apple cider vinger for my toner smellsa little werid but makes my skin feel clean. also every once and a while i use raw aloe and has made my skin very bright and helps with the redness
I used this for around a month as one of most recent treatments... not for me.
Made my skin very dry and irritated.
I didn't notice a difference in my acne in general*, but it might work for you!
*It did help scab over popped blemishes, but that was about it.
I love this product! It really helps heal the blemishes and my pimples. I had been using many different products but none of them really worked for me. I could see the difference in my skin after using it just for a few days. It does dried out my face but it helped dried out and kill all the pimples. I only used it on my cheeks where I had many pimples and black scars. My skin looks a lot clearer now. I don't know what my skin type is but in my life I had never found any product that would help heal my dirty face. Then I found this!
I would love to encourage everyone to at least try it because I know how people felt when dealing with an awful face. I had really low self-esteem but now I'm happy everyday for my face.
My last suggestion is that when using it try to avoid your lips too because it can dry them out. And after using it you can use a moisturizer for your drying skin and you will be all good. I use jergens by the way.
Thank you and I wish you all good luck!

Inside the office of the Sid Martin Biotechnology Incubator, balloons ornament silk trees, vases full of flowers embellish the desks and "Congratulations!" fill the hallways.
Sid Martin is one of UF's business incubators, and last week, it was recognized as the best incubator in the world.
The National Business Incubator Association distributed the awards at its 27th International Conference of Business Incubation in Boston.
Like a prenatal baby or newborn chick not ready for the world, an incubator provides the support and nourishment a new company needs.
As a biotechnology incubator, Sid Martin supplies wet labs, multifaceted laboratories capable of analyzing or testing chemicals, drugs or other biological matter.
They can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, said Sid Martin's Associate Director Patti Breedlove.
The Randall M. Whaley Incubator of the Year award is given by the association to the most successful, supportive and all around best incubator in the world.
Many companies supported by Sid Martin felt the win was a long time coming, but Breedlove was less sure.
"I felt pretty discouraged when we found out the other finalist was a huge company in Hong Kong," she said. "I thought we didn't have a chance."
Merrie Shaw, the incubator manager, was Sid Martin's representative in Boston.
She had learned the Hong Kong incubator was government funded, and if it won, it would be a huge honor for all of China.
But Hong Kong didn't win.
"All of sudden, I heard, 'The winner is UF Sid Martin!'" Shaw said.
They announced Sid Martin had raised more than $800 million in funding, to which Shaw politely corrected.
"When I said it was over one billion, people clapped and stood up."
The UF incubator is a 40,000-square-foot facility located in Alachua, about 25 minutes from campus.
At this time, the incubator houses nine companies and supports 14 outside of its walls.
On average, it produces annual economic impact of about $100 million for Alachua County, Breedlove said.
"Companies apply, but not everyone is accepted," she said. "If they are accepted, then almost all of our resources are available to them."
Acceptance brings access to lab equipment, seminars and networking opportunities for one year, which is all included in one price.
If a company wants to stay another year, it must reapply.
Banyan Biomarkers, which has an office in the building, is the first company to give a blood test and, 30 minutes later, be able to determine if someone has a mild, moderate or serious concussion.
The U.S. military provides about 80 percent of its funding. Also, the research is currently being tested on the UF football team and women's lacrosse team.
Kelly Smith, head of Pasteuria Bioscience Inc., said the company wouldn't exist without the incubator.
"At the time [we began], we had a very small amount of start-up money. It was really only enough to support us in the incubator," she said.

Jason Goroncy is a pastor, theologian, and historian who teaches at Whitley College, University of Divinity, in Melbourne.
Among his many affections – not all of which are fully appreciated by his partner and their three begats – are cooking (especially Indian and Sri Lankan dishes), reading, visual arts, bushwalking, whisky, folk music, ornithology, and fishing (with a strong preference for fly fishing, on the basis of the undisputed fact that 'all first-class fishermen on the Sea of Galilee were fly fishermen' (Norman Maclean)). He cheers for the Chelsea Football Club, the Western Bulldogs, the Sri Lankan Cricket Team, and the Boston Red Sox, and he believes in the superiority of old-fashioned shaving cream, leather shoes, cotton shirts, and loose-leaf tea. He has a strong preference for home-roasted coffee beans, and for second-hand clothing (e.g., his favourite pair of pyjamas once belonged to a 'Mr Ron Baker'). His golf game was much improved after reading John Updike's essays 'Walking Insomnia' and 'Lost Balls'.
In addition to various journal articles, book chapters, and reviews, Jason is also the author of Hallowed be Thy Name: The Sanctification of All Things in the Soteriology of P. T.

By Salvatore Salamone
August 13, 2002 | Recently introduced legislative initiatives have the potential to bar patents on genetic-based human cloning along with licensing and royalty payments on patented genetic-based diagnostic tests.
A session on patenting genes and genetic research tools at the recent 21st Century Life Science Technology Revolution conference, co-sponsored by the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research and Hewlett-Packard Co., looked into looming legislative patent obstacles that will make some patents harder to get and others less valuable once acquired.
"Senator [Sam] Brownback [R-Kan.] wants to ban cloning of human embryos and recently introduced a bill to prohibit patents on human cloning," says patent attorney Beth Arnold, a partner in the firm Foley, Hoag & Eliot LLP.
Since the seminar, Brownback's anti-cloning bill stalled in the Senate. Brownback, however, has said that he will continue to pursue this legislation by adding anti-cloning amendments to unrelated bills. And in June, he filed an amendment to Senate bill S.2600, the Terrorism Risk Assurance Act of 2002. The Brownback amendment would bar the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office from granting patents on products and processes derived from somatic cell nuclear transfer. The bill is expected to clear the Senate, but faces uncertainty in the House.
Eye Opener
Another emerging legal issue life science companies need to keep an eye on has to do with the diagnostic tests based on genetic patents.
Earlier this year, U.S. Rep. Lynn Rivers (D-Mich.) introduced House bill H.R.3967 that, in the text of the submitted bill, calls for "non-infringing uses of patents on genetic sequence information for purposes of research and genetic diagnostic testing, and to require public disclosure of such information in certain patent applications." The bill would let clinics use patented genetic-based disease diagnostic tests without having to pay royalties or licensing fees.
"If passed, H.R.3967 potentially could lower the licensing and royalty revenues life science companies can derive from clinical tests based on patented genetic technology," says Arnold.
At the heart of H.R.3967 is a long-simmering issue related to the availability of medical tests. Under current law, fees and royalty payments discourage many clinics from offering these tests to their patients.
The issue has been discussed within bioethics circles for several years. For example, in July 2000, Jon Merz, a faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine's Center for Bioethics, appeared before the House Subcommittee on Courts and Intellectual Property. The session was an oversight hearing on gene patents.
At that time, Merz told the subcommittee that the trend of exclusive licensing of genetic tests raised some concerns about the lack of availability of these tests to patients who need them. "Primary among these [concerns] is that some licensees are exercising their patent rights to prevent physicians—in particular, molecular pathologists—from performing genetic testing of their patients," said Merz in a prepared statement.
In February of this year, Merz and three colleagues published a commentary titled "Genetic testing: Patent nonsense?" in Nature.
Merz and his colleagues had conducted a survey of clinical laboratories' use of genetic testing for hereditary hemochromatosis, which is often caused by two mutant alleles of the HFE gene (C282Y and H63D).
A patent for a genetic-based HFE diagnostic test for the disease had been awarded to Mercator Genetics Inc. in early 1998. Through a series of corporate acquisitions, the patent was transferred to several companies. During this process, the collection of royalty payments vacillated from being aggressively enforced to completely neglected. In 2000, the patent was finally transferred to Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc., which started offering a test kit and enforcing patent royalties again.
Quantified Confusion
All of this transferring of the patent and off-again, on-again royalty collection created confusion for the clinical labs that would use the diagnostic kit.
Merz and his colleagues surveyed 119 labs and found that 31 of the labs said they had not developed and were not performing the test, and five said they had stopped performing the test. Of these 36 labs, 22 replied that patents were the reason they were not offering the test, and 10 replied that patents were one of several reasons they were not using the test.
After analyzing why the labs weren't using the available genetic test, the Nature commentary stated: "In sum, the patents on HFE had a measurable effect on the development and availability of HFE testing services in the United States, as many laboratories that had the capability to perform the test reported not doing so because of the patents."
Along the same lines, earlier this year a Boston Globe article detailed Myriad Genetics Inc.'s near monopoly in the genetic-based breast cancer testing and diagnostic market.
The article noted that some geneticists had concerns about such a monopolistic practice. However, the author of the article, Kimberly Blanton, stated that little would be done to change the situation in the United States. "[There] is little interest in Congress for delving into patent protections at the heart of the nationÕs free-enterprise system," wrote Blanton.
Since that article appeared, the issue of patenting genetic materials germane to clinical tests has become much hotter with the introduction of Rivers' bill.
"Evidence is mounting that the patenting of human genes is both inhibiting important biomedical research and interfering with patient care," said Rivers in a prepared statement when she introduced the bill.
"Many clinical laboratories have been forced to abandon testing for genetic ailments and genetic markers, and progress in diagnostic testing has been slowed by high costs, litigation, and complex licensing arrangements," said Rivers. "While patent protection may stimulate initial genetic discovery, it is probably not enhancing the delivery of affordable and widely available health services."
Rep. Rivers' bill seeks to change matters by granting medical researchers and genetic diagnosticians protection from patent infringement. In May, this bill was referred to the House IP subcommittee. The subcommittee will consider the bill when Congress reconvenes in the fall.

Liem Ma, whose family owns Pho & Cafe Viet Huong at 11th Street and Washington Avenue in South Philadelphia, looked east and realized that Pennsport could use a Vietnamese bar-restaurant.
And so last week, he opened the stylish Mekong River (1120 S. Front St., 215-467-6100) down the street from the Ugly American. It's done up in wood and ceramic, with fieldstone, reminiscent of Pho Hoa's neighbor, Le Viet.
Mekong River's extensive menu starts at No. 101 and ends at 273, including your regulation rice vermicelli selections and a dozen phos. It's open from 10 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. daily.
Lansdowne doings
Lansdowne Borough is awakening as a destination. At the corner of Lansdowne and Baltimore Avenues, Argana Moroccan Cuisine (2 N. Lansdowne Ave., 484-461-9595) was opened recently by Zouhir Oullaf and Chris Arouh, who longed for the tastes of their homeland. Decor is a spiffed-up version of previous occupant Lansdowne Diner; menu hits the high points and nothing is over $12.95; it's BYOB. It's open daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. (till 11 on Friday and Saturday).

for people in love, and people who love life.
How will you tell it?
Robin & JordanSeptember 2013
Cindy & KevinSeptember 2012
We want to thank you again for photographing our wedding. We had a blast and hope you guys did too! Thank you so much for going above and beyond to fulfill our requests – we appreciate your efforts and skills.
Lisa & CraigOctober 2012
It was wonderful having you take photos for our special day October 6th:) You put us at ease and were extremely professional to be around. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a photographer!
Jenny & FrancisApril 2012
When it came time to choose my own photographer, it was very important to me to find someone who could give me (and my future daughters!) the same experience. I wanted to find a photographer who created the kinds of pictures that really captured the feel of the day–from the weather to the ambiance to the people–in a timeless manner. I was very taken by Lightside Photography's work from the first time I looked at their website: Amanda thoughtfully took what was in front of her and translated it into eternity without losing any of the color or flavor. Her photography was at once fresh and traditional, able to capture the individuality of the people they worked with while not becoming too trendy or invasive. After one meeting, I knew I had found the perfect photographer for me.
Lauren & DavidJune 2012
We got our wedding pictures yesterday, and were absolutely thrilled with them! There were so many special moments of our day that you captured beautifully, and looking through the pictures brought back so many memories and emotions. We don't know how we're ever going to decide which ones to frame and put in our album, because every single picture is so lovely! Like I said in our thank-you speech, ever since you began photographing weddings and I saw your work, I really hoped that someday you would be able to photograph my wedding; I'm so glad it happened, because I don't think anyone else would have been able to so accurately and beautifully captured the tone we wanted our wedding to have! Thank you again so much!
Alisha & Kris2013
Thanks again for working our wedding. Alisha and I found you awesome to work with!

Yesterday we heard from writer/director Eric England, who gave us a list of his five favorite independent horror features. Today we take a look at the up-and-coming indie director's favorite genre shorts. Read on to see what short films have caught his eye over the years!
This is one of my favorite shorts by a buddy of mine – and a very talented director – Victor Garcia. It's exactly what a good short film should be: tight, effective, and well executed.
Who says scares have to take time? The first time I saw this short, I got goosebumps. I still love to pull it up and give my friends an unsuspecting scare. Not only that, but it's directed by Drew Daywalt, who has a knack for little horrors.
This short gets me. Great effects. A naked girl. And a cool monster! It's sci-fi at its best!
Eel Girl from Paul Campion on Vimeo.
I stumbled across this one online a while back. I thought it was really well executed, especially for a shot-in-45-minutes (and edited in three hours) film. Great little concept. A little Perfect Getawayish with the flashbacks, but at the end it wraps up nicely.
Inventory (Canon 5D MK II) – SHOT IN ONLY 45 MINUTES from F.C.Rabbath on Vimeo.
I have a soft spot for foreign films. The stories are always a little out there and the directors always put the camera in the craziest places. This short is visually interesting, and who doesn't love a creepy little clown kid?

[REF WATCH]Two weeks after FIFA scrapped further experimentation with goal-line technology -- President Sepp Blatter claiming it couldn't find an accurate method of checking whether a ball crosses the goal line -- Eintracht Frankfurt beat Energie Cottbus with a goal that TV replays appeared to show shouldn't have been awarded.
Blatter said three years of experimentation failed to come up with technology that was 100 percent accurate.
Cottbus keeper Gerhard Tremmel dived to parry Marco Russ's shot. The ball hit the post and bounced back to Tremmel, and Referee Michael Kemptner awarded a goal. But TV replays didn't reveal that the whole ball crossed the line.
The loss is severe for Cottbus, which is near the relegation zone.

Mike Trout, Wil Myers and Bryce Harper are three of the most promising young prospects in baseball today.
All three outfielders possess above-average skills in most, if not all, categories on both sides of the ball, and all three are destined for superstardom in the big leagues.
Outfielders don't have just one role. They don't have to have soft hands and quick reflexes like a middle infielder, and they don't necessarily have to hit for power as they would be expected to if they were corner infielders.
Today's elite outfielders don't fit one mold, and more often than not, the elite guys can do it all: They can hit for power, hit for average, play stellar defense and tear up the base paths.
Here's every team's No. 1 outfield prospect.

Skip to comments.Zimmerman was on the ground being punched when he shot Trayvon Martin(FL)
Posted on 03/22/2012 4:55:30 AM PDT by marktwain
Last weekend in the city of Chicago alone, gangbangers slaughtered ten people and wounded another forty. The youngest fatality is only six years old. The youngest person wounded is only one-year-old. Many of the victim were pedestrians sprayed with bullets in drive by shootings. The national news has said nothing about this.
So why does one shooting in Florida warrant weeks of national news? Why has there been thousands of articles a day, for the last four days, about one single shooting?
Almost all of the news items about George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin contains a combination of false statements, opinions presented as facts, transparent distortions, and a complete absence of some of the most relevant details. Almost all news items are written soley from the point of view of the grieving family. The media also fills their articles with outdated baby-faced pictures of Trayvon. Very few include that he was a towering 6'2 football player. Is the media really reporting the news, or is this classic agitation/propaganda to advance a political agenda.
(Excerpt) Read more at examiner.com ...
No, I didn't TRY, I DID justify it's about killing, because Neighborhood Watch is about criminals, and they like to kill people. That's documented, by the way. Would you like to see some stats about criminality and murder?
Please try to pay attention.
BTW, I never said ONE, not ONE single racial references in my post. It is YOU who raised the racial references. (Emphasis added.)
Really? Where did I do that? I didn't.
But the race-pimp NGO's sure as hell did. We would not have heard about this neighborhood shooting otherwise.
In case you hadn't noticed, this was a black-on-white crime against the mestizo guy, whom the decedent was beating bloody before the accused shot him in self-defense.
it still doesn't mean Z is charged with anything.....
If it's "all about surveillance", that means it's about taking notes and watching, not about killing.
And you were the one who brought up the Sharpton references, then repeated that mode with the "mestizo" reference.
Put down the bottle, dude.
No way is it self defense if you approach someone on the sidewalk, start making demands, then suffer the consequences.
I still haven't seen a full explanation of what Trayvon Martin was doing out and about late at night.
One statement said he was from Miami. Another said he has a juvy history and was on suspension at the time of the incident. Another said he lived in the subdivision. His mother said he went to the store because he was bored. Bored? What does that mean?
The Sanford city manager in his statement referred to an "arrest record" for Zimmermann. Anyone ever taken to city jail for a traffic stop has that. The statement does not clarify what that "arrest record" entailed, or whether it was material. If a police officer runs a guy to jail for having a gun despite being a CCW licensee, that is still an "arrest".
Why am I not surprised? Thanks for sharing.
But, but, my local paper is running a picture of the 'teen' and he looks like he's ten years old in the picture.
Is it possible my local paper is unaware that the 'teens' picture (the real one - of how he looks today) is on the internet? The only folks being 'fooled' are the elderly who don't use computers. The rest of the people have started trusting the press LESS than before... Less than before - trust running on par with used car salesmen...
The truth will set you free.... Here's the truth about elite journalist working for one side - - truth:
The civil patrol driver was on his way back to his truck when he was jumped. Is "suffer the consequences" codespeak for "he deserved it because he's white", because anyone without a badge who asks a young black man a pointed question deserves an ass-beating for temerity?
You've got some funny ideas about amour-propre.
And you were the one who brought up the Sharpton references, then repeated that mode with the "mestizo" reference.
A Sharpton reference references Sharpton, without whom we wouldn't even be talking about this story.
Come out of your hidey-hole and yell "racist" -- that's the liberal mode d'emploi when talking about this stuff -- you know you're doing it already. That's the second time you've accused me of racism in lieu of argument, and you are full of b.s. for one thing, and you're playing games, specifically argumentum ad hominem, which Transactional Analysis calls "Blemish", for another.
Weaselly references and sneaky accusations won't get you anywhere on this board, troll.
That is why we must defeat the Democrats (other wise known as LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist/Fascists Bastards) in November!
There is a profoundly disturbing sentiment that shows up almost every day on FReeRepublic. That is: "If Romney (or Santorum or Gingrich or Paul — pick any one) is the Republican nominee, I'm going to either vote Third Party or not vote at all."
FReepers, I cannot tell you how wrong-headed this train of thought is — our objective is to defeat the LIEberals in November, and the only way to do that is to vote against them!
And, for God's sake, don't vote Third Party! Remember Ross Perot? Thanks to him, and the stupidity of about 19% of the electorate, we got 8 years of Slick and Hitlery.
We sureasHell don't need 8 years of Obongo Bozo!
If Bush didn't reneg on 'Read My Lips' there would have been no Perot.
I agree that that comment caused a lot of people to not vote for him, but the lesson there for all of us, despite the "Lesser of two evils" canard, is that until and unless a truly viable, competitive Third Party comes along, we will have to deal with Democrats and Republicans.
In that context, voting against the Democrat is the best we can do, given that we have not been able to get a Real Conservative through the nominating process in recent election cycles.
You still won't admit that YOU were the one that put the racial spin on this, not me.
Noodle on, dude...
I knew that - I was just cc:ing you since he had made the "murder" comment I was responding to, to you.
I wish FR had an explicit cc: function. In a case like this, you should assume that, if you see what I mean.
I absolutely did not, liar. Wanna cop an attitude and talk about noodling? Go noodle yourself!
Until conservatives stop knuckling under to this con, "the best we can do" is the best we're gonna get from the guys with the money and the control of the GOP.
Nothing thug or nefarious. just a teenager.
So if his FB page doesn't say "yo ima kill some fools", then this says something about culpability in this case?
All of my adult life, I have longed for a Presidential face-off between a LIEberal and a Real Conservative.
I am almost 71 years old, and I doubt I'll ever get my wish fulfilled.
HST, all we can do is press forward and hope that Obongo Bozo is unceremoniously booted out of the White House in November!
And then go to work on his successor to force government to recognize and abide by the US Constitution.
Don't know what else we can do — but it is for damn sure that if we sit this one out, Obongo Bozo and his LIEberal hangers-on will take America down!
Now REALLY is the time for all good men and women to come to the aid of their country!
PS I'd like to think that We the People, presuming we prevail in November, will be encouraged enough and empowered enough to force the out of control government geni back into the Constitutional bottle?
.....who was on top of a guy beating the rat p*ss out of him, when the guy shot him in self-defense.
Zimmermann was all bloody, multiple eyewitnesses said. Since that had to have happened before the gun went off, because Martin couldn't have done it after the gun went off ..... your sidewinding characterization of the attacker as a Floridian Oliver Twist ain't working.
Self-defense, open and shut. This is all about a media lynching, a bonfire of the vanities to feed Obama's turnout in the fall, by allowing him to posture as Race Pharaoh and a River to My People and all that tribal-political crap the Dims love.
They're trying to intimidate GOP pols into giving this guy up to the lynch-mob, and this afternoon on AM radio, I heard Santorum giving him up, characterizing the encounter as murder. He gave up the guy's defense on national radio.
Wow. "Warning shot"?
You are just making stuff up now. You don't fire "warning shots". That's insane.
I'm not either, but it is for damnsure that I am going to buttonhole every person I talk to about the importance of voting against Obongo Bozo and the LIEberals!
I only have a certain amount of time, talent and treasure.
I'll do what I can with what I have!
No, genius...it just shows those freepers who have actually posted pictures of other people that fit their idea of what they wanted him to be while claiming they were pictures of Martin to be the racist asshats they are...you want to play in their sandbox go right ahead. Just don't kid yourself about who your playmates are.
I'm not playing in anybody's "sandbox". My point is it doesn't matter if someone's Facebook is devoid of "sinister images or content", and that such a situation doesn't help us determine anything. Genius.
Last weekend in the city of Chicago alone, gangbangers slaughtered ten people and wounded another forty. The youngest fatality is only six years old. The youngest person wounded is only one-year-old. Many of the victim were pedestrians sprayed with bullets in drive by shootings. The national news has said nothing about this... Almost all of the news items about George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin contains a combination of false statements, opinions presented as facts, transparent distortions, and a complete absence of some of the most relevant details... with outdated baby-faced pictures of Trayvon... a towering 6'2" football player.
Thanks for checking - thanks for sharing.
Zimmerman head wound in the back of his head. Bloodied face. Grass stains over the back of his shirt. Indicates he was on his back when beaten
Zimmerman yelling for help as confirmed by the kids father.
Now we need to0 know if the gunshot was up close. Was it in front? Either confirmed would indicate that the fight was as told to the police.
Now Race. It doesn't have to be about race until it happens to be a black guy, but if he wants to wear his hoodie up, pants down low acting like a hoodlum then the first impression is that it is a HOODLUM! Questioning a person appearing to be a hood is not out of the question. Just ask the 90 year old man who just lost his wife of 65 yeare to one of these pieces of human debris who just happens to be a YOUNG BLACK BOY!
Last I checked "F-ing Coon" Was considered to be a racial slur against people of color. That is either wrong or not but either way it is not a lie. So take your personal attacks elsewhere.
There are claims of that but no proof. People claim they can hear him say that, some say he said "goons". Your prejudice is speaking much louder than your words.

Woke Up This Morning Lyrics[Hook]
Okay I woke up this morning
Ready for the evening
(It's the same shit, nothing new)
Okay I woke up this morning
Ready for the evening
(Got a bag of money just for you)
All I can think about is bright lights, and throwing dough, y'already know
(Girl you the reason that all my bills on the floor)
Ugh, all I keep thinkin bout is your ass and that dance floor girl
(So many reasons, to get your ass on the floor)
[Verse 1]
Okay I woke up this morning
Ready for the evening
This ain't nothing new
We do this every day and weekend
Same shit last night, four hours of sleepin'
Your girl probably creepin', with me it ain't no secret
I ain't even high, trying to find where my pick is
All this green around me gotta break it into pieces
Hater's throwin' shade don't be lookin' but I peeped it
Bet you they still outside by the valet where my keys at
But we in here, whole team clear, know me
Bitches fallin from the ceiling like Cirque du Soleil
Who tryin' to battle I just might spend your rent bill, 'round rent time
I pay everything but attention, only one thing on my mind
[Verse 2]
The party ain't over so why you stoppin' dancin'
What you need a refill?
Know I got the answer
Always got your phone out
I should take your battery
These bitches be like "We be poppin' bottles still ain't had a drink"
Stop with all your acting, you deserve an academy
Award. Tried to warn ya
We do it so casually
Killer by the hour, then I'm ready for the after
Party, you can meet me in the parking for the address
Just don't bring no extras
Ain't trying to be on Extra, TMZ in my Bedroom
Got a couple bottles here, might need more before too
See my eyes red, Rozay, Moe'z is my go-to

The story behind the video: A study in motion and energy
Dunedin High School senior swimmer Christina Lang, 17, had part of her leg amputated when she was 2 years old. Lang not only is a state playoff contender, but has a goal to compete in the 2020 Paralympic Games in Japan. Since discovering the sport four years ago, Lang has qualified for her first international competition.
When I heard about the opportunity to hang out with Christina at the pool, it was certainly clear that I would be tasked with giving the reader / viewer the best opportunity to get a sense of what it is like to be a swimmer and an amputee. Video not only provided the perfect medium to hear Christina talk about the experience of having one leg but also gave us a great study of movement - of forces in action, of motion and resistance - which served to amplify just how special Christina's determination to succeed is.

California Cities Irked by Borrowing Plan
SAN FRANCISCO -- California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, in his efforts to find funds to balance the state budget, has proposed borrowing $2 billion from municipal governments over the next fiscal year, a tactic that is rankling local officials up and down the state.
Mr. Schwarzenegger is invoking a 2004 law that lets the state demand loans of 8% of property-tax revenue from cities, counties and special districts. Under the law, the state must repay the municipalities with interest within three years.
Administrators of already cash-strapped cities and counties said the loans would force even deeper cuts in services. Fewer cops and fire engines would be on the streets, they said, and parks and libraries would be closed more often. And some local governments would be forced to lay off workers to keep their budgets out of the red, they said.
Mr. Schwarzenegger's proposal "suggests that financing state government and state-government services are more important than these basic community services," said Chris McKenzie, executive director of the League of California Cities. "I think it's something most of the public would disagree with."
The governor said California's worsening fiscal woes forced his hand. California faces a $21 billion shortfall after voters on Tuesday rejected a series of measures to help keep the state solvent. Lawmakers dictate $92 billion of the state's $131 billion budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1. "I absolutely despise taking money from local government, but as I said, this is only under the worst-case scenario," Mr. Schwarzenegger said last week.
Mr. Schwarzenegger on Thursday announced he is seeking more cuts to avoid borrowing $5.5 billion from Wall Street, as he had previously proposed. On top of the $9 billion in spending reductions he had already called for, he is considering slashing an additional $750 million from prisons and $600 million from colleges and universities, an official in his finance department said. The state is also looking at cutting hundreds of millions of dollars from various social services, as well as eliminating Cal Grants, a college financial-aid program, the official said.
The governor's proposal of borrowing from local governments must still be approved by the legislature. If it does so, municipalities are worried the state won't be able to repay the loans, given the state's fiscal plight. "They're hijacking our dollars," said Don Knabe, chairman of Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. "They don't have money to pay us back. It's a joke."
Los Angeles County could lose the use of up to $500 million for the next fiscal year, Mr. Knabe said. That would add to the county's projected $300 million shortfall in its $23.5 billion budget, of which supervisors can control $3.5 billion. That could mean cuts to services like parks and libraries.
The state could borrow about $25.6 million from Contra Costa County, said Contra Costa administrator David Twa. He says the county is in no shape to cut back more after slashing $156 million from its budget and laying off 600 workers.
San Francisco would be forced to lend the state up to $90 million under the governor's proposal, said city Controller Ben Rosenfield. With the city already facing a $438 million budget gap, officials would likely borrow funds if the state takes their property-tax revenue, he said. "It costs us money to borrow," Mr. Rosenfield said. "It'll end up falling on future fiscal years."
Administrators in smaller counties also oppose the governor's idea. The budget deficit of Kern County, in the Central Valley, could increase by $26 million if the state goes through with its plan, said Allan Krauter, Kern's legislative analyst. "We're going to have more layoffs with this," he said.
City and county officials are lobbying the state to reconsider the proposal. Mr. McKenzie said the League of California Cities is considering filing a suit against the state. Mike Reagan, a supervisor for Solano County in Northern California, said officials in numerous counties are strategizing on how to stop the state from borrowing the funds.
Mr. Krauter of Kern County said local officials throughout the Golden State are sending a clear message to Sacramento: "State, you solve your problems. Let us solve ours."

San Francisco – December 10, 2015 – The Silicon Valley Toxics Coalition (SVTC) today released its Sixth Annual 2015 Solar Scorecard at www.solarscorecard.com, which ranks manufacturers of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules according to a range of environmental, sustainability and social justice factors. This year's respondents of PV companies more than doubled from last year, including new participation from LG, Jinko, Kyocera, AUO and WINAICO.
The 13 companies that responded to the 2015 Solar Scorecard represent just 35.8 percent of the total PV module market share, with the remainder of the information gathered from publicly available documentation.
"The number of companies committed to reporting environmental practices continues to fluctuate wildly from year to year," said Sheila Davis, executive director of Silicon Valley Toxics Coalition. "The inconsistent participation is largely due to bankruptcies, restructuring and new entries into the Solar PV manufacturing market. We need consistent industrywide sustainability practices and reporting procedures that consumers can expect from all solar companies."
In November 2014, SVTC announced plans to expand its Scorecard into a standard that meets the criteria of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). With participation more than doubling this year, SVTC believes that interest and participation will continue to increase as the Solar Scorecard transitions into a formal accredited standard by 2017.
Key findings from this year's solar scorecard and SVTC's research throughout the last six years include:
"The SVTC Solar Scorecard requires PV module manufacturers to report on sustainability performance metrics, disclose environmental, health, and safety certifications and report other information," said Associate Professor Dustin Mulvaney of San Jose State University, who helped SVTC interpret the scores. "These practices are increasingly commonplace in other electronics and semiconductor industries. The fact that company scores continue to increase is a sign that solar industry leaders are integrating sustainability reporting into operations."]]>
View the full results]]>
2014 was a very productive year for SVTC. We laid a solid foundation for two major initiatives that will keep us very busy in 2015 and beyond. I wanted to take this opportunity to update you on our latest projects—and also to encourage you to join us by making a generous year-end gift to SVTC.
First, we'll be developing SVTC's successful Solar Scorecard into a formal set of product standards for solar PV products. At the same time, we'll move forward with the Solar Recycling Incubator, a model project to ensure the sustainability of off-grid solar products around the world.
Since the Solar Scorecard was launched five years ago, the solar PV industry has expanded six-fold, from just 6.4 GW of PV module production in 2009 to 38.7 GW in 2013. The Scorecard has had a significant impact on the industry and continues to drive positive change. Since 2010, 44.5% of the PV industry (based on 2013 market share) has participated in one or more SVTC Scorecard surveys. The Scorecard is a valuable resource for responsible consumers, and this year it was viewed more than 200 million times online.
Starting in 2015, SVTC will begin developing the Scorecard into a formal standard accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The standard will provide an important tool for U.S. and international regulatory agencies, and will also expand the Scorecard's usefulness for large institutional purchasers.
Development of the ANSI standard is a rigorous two-year process that involves a wide range of stakeholders and will cost an estimated $250,000. Your support will be essential as we take the Scorecard to the next level!
Launched in 2014, SVTC's Solar Recycling Incubator is a model project for sustainable solar PV use in Africa. By improving solar product design, distribution, and recycling, the project will help protect the environment and also address the root causes of poverty in rural agriculture communities.
Over the next 35 years, 1.8 billion babies will be born in Africa, doubling the continent's population. In some countries, such as Malawi, more than 90 percent of the people lack access to grid electricity, relying instead on polluting fuels such as coal, kerosene, and wood. Small solar devices can help address this need, but because of short product life spans, they also have the potential to become a new wave of toxic e-waste.
In 2014 SVTC developed strong partnerships with communities, repair technicians, and recyclers in Malawi, and also with international scholars and solar companies. Our goal is to develop safer and more recyclable PV products, accessible repair manuals, and a recycling database. At the same time, we are partnering with a farming community in Malawi to pilot the use of solar devices in sustainable agriculture.

The results are in!
2014 marks the fifth consecutive year since the Silicon Valley Toxics Coalition (SVTC) began releasing its Annual Solar Scorecard. In case you aren't familiar with it, the SVTC Solar Scorecard ranks manufacturers of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules according to a range of environmental, sustainability and social justice factors.
At SVTC we believe that the solar PV sector should be safe for the environment, workers and communities. By sharing environmental practices with the public, the goal is to keep the PV sector transparent in a time where industry standards that define what it means to be "green" are far and few between.
In its fifth year of requesting environmental information from solar PVs, seven companies representing 25.2 percent of the total PV module market share responded to the 2014 SVTC survey — a significant decline from the response rate of 51.1 percent in 2012. This is of concern because many companies who are offering cheap products and hiding their environmental footprints are generally being rewarded by the market, which is undeniably accelerating the race to the bottom. Generally speaking, this is ironic since the whole idea behind solar power is to keep the world "green," and achieving this is hard to do when companies are not idealizing environmental standards while manufacturing their so-called green products.
Let's dive deeper into the Scorecard results (which can be found in full here):
First off, we'd like to pass on special recognition to both SolarWorld and Yingli, who have stepped up to the challenge and responded to our SVTC survey every year since 2010. Their commitment to environmental stewardship has remained consistent despite significant disruptions in the solar industry.
Moving on to the solar PV environmental leaders for our 2014 Scorecard, Trina tops the results scoring 92/100, followed closely by SunPower (88), Yingli (81), SolarWorld (73) and REC (71). Additionally, Trina, SunPower, SolarWorld and REC all perform extensive chemical emissions disclosure and reporting conducted by a third party.
Beyond this, many of these same companies take the reins in innovation with the following leadership qualities:
On a concerning note, zero companies can provide documentation to verify that their supply chains do not contain conflict minerals based on the due diligence guidelines set by the OECD. However, 12 companies have started the process to look into this.
To support ongoing efforts to keep up reporting standards, SVTC has recently partnered with renewable energy and green procurement leaders, as well as the nonprofit Green Electronic Council (GEC), to expand the Scorecard into a standard that meets the criteria of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) — a certification, if you will. By creating environmental leadership standards that are endorsed by multiple stakeholder groups, the final goal will be to have PV standards that meet the qualifications for consideration on the EPEAT Registry.
At the end of the day, SVTC's hope (through its Solar Scorecard) is for commercial, government or residential purchasers of PV modules to make a long-term environmental commitment by choosing those PV modules that keep high environmental manufacturing standards. SVTC hopes the solar industry will become an exemplarily green business model focused on environmental sustainability and workplace safety.]]>
San Francisco – November 11, 2014 – The Silicon Valley Toxics Coalition (SVTC) today released its Fifth Annual 2014 Solar Scorecard at www.solarscorecard.com, which ranks manufacturers of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules according to a range of environmental, sustainability and social justice factors. Seven PV companies responded in detail to this fifth annual SVTC survey, with the remainder of the information gathered from publicly available documentation.
The solar PV industry has seen rapid growth in recent years, particularly in the contract manufacturing segment, which now accounts for more than 25 percent of the global PV supply. The seven companies that responded to the 2014 Solar Scorecard today represent just 25.2 percent of the total PV module market share.
"Although the solar market has expanded six-fold since 2009, the market share of companies committed to reporting environmental practices has declined," said Sheila Davis, executive director of Silicon Valley Toxics Coalition. "The rise of 'white box' solar manufacturers has the potential to drive a race to the bottom. SVTC is concerned that companies who offer cheap products and hide their environmental footprint may be rewarded by the market."
SVTC recognized two companies — SolarWorld and Yingli — for responding to the Solar Scorecard survey every year since 2010, demonstrating a consistent commitment to environmental stewardship despite significant disruptions in the solar industry. In addition to this recognition, SolarWorld has achieved the highest overall score across all five Solar Scorecards to date.
Mukesh Dulani, president of SolarWorld Americas Inc., noted: "As leaders in the solar power industry, we are committed not only to renewable energy, but also to transparency and responsible production, including independent verifications, such as SVTC's Solar Scorecard. We encourage all of our competitors in this industry to embrace that same commitment."
The PV manufacturers included in the 2014 Solar Scorecard comprise approximately 75 percent of the industry.
Key findings from this year's solar scorecard and SVTC's research throughout the last five years include:
"It's critically important for companies to collect and report chemical use and emissions data," said Assistant Professor Dustin Mulvaney of San Jose State University, SVTC's science advisor. "The more transparency there is on this issue, the more likely it is that companies will be able to compete to reduce their emissions per PV module."
As for next steps, SVTC plans to use the Solar Scorecard as the basis for a new environmental leadership standard for solar PV modules. SVTC will partner with renewable energy and green procurement leaders, as well as the nonprofit Green Electronic Council (GEC), to expand the Scorecard into a standard that meets the criteria of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
"Environmental procurement is greatly simplified when performance criteria are codified in credible leadership standards," said Robert Frisbee, GEC's CEO. "SVTC's hard work on the Scorecard and its intention to launch development of such a standard are commendable. We look forward to helping engage relevant stakeholders in the development process."
Developing an environmental leadership standard endorsed by multiple stakeholder groups ordinarily takes approximately 18 to 24 months. SVTC's goal is to create a solar PV standard that meets the qualifications for consideration on the EPEAT Registry (http://www.epeat.net/).

My perception of the design – The upper right shoulder in my mind keeps saying it should be white and not tan which i think it is. So I think it should be on a white shirt. – I think the left side went too dark so shave some black off that area and let the eyelashes peak be more visible. – Also I think the eye should be projecting that pink haze so focus around the eye area
Still a pretty cool design

Great design, and I think it looks fine how it is
Very yes.

Lindsay Lohan Will Go to Jail If She Enters Plea Deal
Lindsay Lohan is preparing to go to trial over a felony theft charge after a Los Angeles judge warned the actress she will serve jail time if she chooses to accept a plea deal. The embattled star has pleaded not guilty to accusations she stole a necklace from the Kamofie & Company jewelery store in Venice, California last month, and maintains the item was loaned to her.
Her lawyer, Shawn Holley, previously expressed interest in settling the case with prosecutors if they agreed not fight for a prison term, but Superior Court Judge Keith L. Schwartz shot down the possibility on Wednesday, February 23. He warned the "Mean Girls" actress that pleading guilty or no contest to the charge will be an automatic admission of probation violation on an existing DUI charge - and that will send her to jail.
Judge Schwartz said, "This case does involve jail time period. If you plead in front of me, you are going to jail. Period... I don't care that you're Lindsay Lohan... You will be treated just like anyone else."
During the hearing, it was revealed Deputy District Attorney Danette Meyers had already made a formal offer for a plea deal, which is believed to involve six months behind bars. But, according to TMZ.com, Lohan wants to fight to clear her name and is ready to stand trial. If convicted, she faces up to a year in state prison.
She has until her next court hearing on March 10 to decide whether or not to accept a plea. Lohan is currently free on bail after her probation for a 2007 misdemeanor DUI conviction was revoked earlier this month.
In related news, Lindsay Lohan found herself in more legal trouble on Sunday night after she was allegedly clocked driving a Porsche at 59 miles-per-hour in a 30 mile-per-hour zone. TMZ.com reports Lohan was ticketed for the offense.

"I was very, very disturbed after the loss to Dos Santos. I was in such a state that I wished to hang myself in my hotel room so I would be gone. Three losses in my last seven fights is nothing but a disaster to me. That's a terrible score and I'm not happy about it. I already know some things that I did wrong both in the fight and in the preparation for the fight, but there are many questions that remain to be answered. I am seriously thinking about hiring a psychiatrist to help me out. I have already made some calls about it … I will make some changes in my training, because I wish to fight twice more in the UFC. I am a fighter, and I will find the motivation and strength I need … If someone offered me millions of dollars to quit my career right now I would not accept it. [Fighting] is my life and I don't know any other way to live."Former PRIDE FC superstar, Mirko Filipovic, reflects on his state of mind following his submission (verbal) loss to Junior dos Santos at UFC 103: "Franklin vs. Belfort" from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, on Sept. 19. He was beaten to the punch, and pretty much beat up, in what essentially turned out to be a striking match for two-plus rounds. The Croatian waved off the Brazilian in the third after eating a brutal knee to the face that wiped out his vision. It marked his third loss inside the Octagon in five attempts — a far cry from the world beater who was scalping his opponents just three years ago under the Pride banner. In fact, he has not defeated a top-level fighter since he made Josh Barnett quit at "Final Conflict Absolute," which earned him the Pride FC 2006 Open Weight Grand Prix Championship. Could this be the end of the road of Cro Cop's long and distinguished professional career, which dates back to the mid 1990s? Or will he rise from the ashes and give it one more shot?

Yaounde is the capital of Cameroon.
Get in[edit]
By plane[edit]
There are daily flights from most major European destinations, like Paris, London, Belgium, and Amsterdam. While most flights descend in Douala, these flights frequently continue on to Yaounde and do not require passengers to disembark. Alternately, one could get off in Douala and take one of the numerous bus or train services to reach Yaounde (a 3-4 hour ride).
By train[edit]
Trains are usually used to move cargo from the southern provinces to the northern provinces. There are passenger services that run daily from Yaounde to the Adamawa province.
By car[edit]
By bus[edit]
It's really worth getting the 'prestige' service if you're coming from Douala. If for no other reason than the seatbealts, it's worth the splurge, but take a jumper incase they crank the air-con.
By boat[edit]
Get around[edit]
City busses do exist, but shared taxis are the way to go. They will slow down for you to call your destination, and beep to say yes. The price is fixed at 200CFA, unless you're travelling a long way, or if you're not going far, you can try calling "cent francs" and your destination.
See[edit][add listing]
The city's not really set up for tourists, but some fun things to see are the Mvog Betsi zoo (primates and lions, with a kid's playground), the Mokolo market (very big and in-your-face), Mont Febe, or maybe the swimming pools of some of the hotels.
The city centre houses government offices, some hotels, and the central market. The Bastos neighbourhood, with most homes owned by Cameroonians, is home to foreign embassies and the expatriate European community (drawn mainly from the diplomatic corps). The presidential palace and compound is in the Etoudi neighborhood.
Also found in Yaoundé are:
There is a small zoo in the Mvog-Betsi neighbourhood. Yaoundé has a small assortment of nightclubs and restaurants.
Do[edit][add listing]
If you're volunteering with an NGO, make sure that you've verified its credibility with an independent source. A good way can be to look at the NGO's partner organisations; if it has any big ones (ie. UN etc.), they will probably have checked it out. It is sad to see eager and well intentioned volunteers have their time and money wasted (and their benevolent zeal diminished!).
Buy[edit][add listing]
If you need CFA, there are a handful of ATMs at banks around the city, as well as one in the Hilton in the center of Yaounde. There are also many people on the street who will change money, e.g. at the airport, outside the Hilton, and at the Casino supermarket. Money changers on the street can be recognized by seeing them rub their thumb and middle finger together at you (not a rude gesture, just a sign). They will generally accept Euros but some may also accept dollars. Know the conversion rate before you go in case you need to haggle, but the group of people who change money outside the Casino give a good rate without haggling (650 CFA per Euro, vs. a 656 CFA per Euro official rate).
Eat[edit][add listing]
There is a Casino (a large French supermarket chain) next to the Notre Dame cathedral in the center of town where you can buy typical European brand-name foods.Also the presence of native restoration centers nearly at every turns with a local menu and the many accustomed may provide a unique experience if you care to stop by.
Street stalls are everywhere, but a nice place to go is Nlongkak round about. Here there's a bit of a variety, and plenty of places to get a beer. A plate of beans should cost between 200-500CFA, an omlet around 500 (or 1000 if in a resturant with chips), and a plate of spagetti maybe 500CFA. Prices may vary considerably depending on the honesty of your vendor.
Kajazoma is a very chic art gallery/eatery that is defiantly worth checking out for dinner or for drinks. Located in a tranquil, open garden (Bastos).
Cosypool is a thai inspired restaurant with a lot of delicious options (Bastos).
Salsa the pizzas are amazing! (Bastos).

Sleep[edit][add listing]
foyer international de l'eglise presbyterienne
Hotel Ideal
Double rooms W/ shower are 6,000 CFA($12-$15) Double rooms W/ Tele and shower are 8,000 CFA($16-$20) Suites dble are 15,000 CFA($20-$30) It's on Carrefour Nlongkak, Phone # 22 20 98 52.

Stay safe[edit]
Taxi sharing can be risky, even for Cameroonians, and you may wind up with your cell phone and wallet stolen. It is recommended to hire a private taxi recommended by your hotel or a friend.

Are you Ready for St. Patrick's Day?
Here are some of the ideas from my Hooray for St. Patrick's Day Unit. We made a paper plate leprechaun and wrote a how to piece for How To Catch a Leprechaun.
Do you believe in Leprechauns survey graph during math centers….
Spin an ordinal number St. Patrick's Day Parade also during math centers…
How to make green science experiment….
Shamrock Shakes Cooking and Procedural Writing Activity…
Making ock family words during literacy centers….
This number line mystery game is super fun. The kiddos pick up a number card. They look at the card and have to determine where it goes on the number line. Once the figure out where it goes, they pick up the card that is laying there and put their own card in it's place. Now they have to figure out where the new card belongs. They absolutely love this game!
I have other math games available in the St. Patrick's Day Math Game Pack.

KEENE, N.H. — C&S Wholesale Grocers on Thursday said it would close a Dunmore, Pa. warehouse serving A&P stores, saying the retailer's decision to take back distribution of health and beauty products and housewares serviced by the facility forced the decision to close. Around 200 employees will be affected by the closure, set to begin in September, C&S told state officials. The Dunmore facility is a former A&P warehouse that an affiliate of C&S took over in 2006. ...
