Meeko arrived at the rescue two and a half years ago with her sister Jeytta. Both were five years old at the time with Meeko being very adrenal. The two girls had spent the prior two years in a small carrier or in an eight panel pen. Immediately before coming to us they were living in a basement being fed dog food. About a year and a half ago we lost Jey after battling to keep her healthy. Meeko was given an implant and still looks great, though she has recently developed cataracts that have completely taken away her sight. She is now going on eight years old and slowing down. Instead of chasing the cats around the house like she used to, she would much rather cuddle up to her humans or best friends.

Additional Golf Course Reviews:
|Mystic Hills Golf Club -- Mystic Hills-Deceptively challenging
|Review by: Lark Ryan
|This beautiful course looks, at first glance to be rather easily managed. It's only after trying to putt on the extremely fast, undulating first green that the challenge becomes apparent. Rugged, ball devouring rough, slick roller coaster greens and fairways that aren't as wide as they appear all add up to one of those courses that will beckon your return, if only to negate the less than stellar score that will probably be the result of your first effort here.

S5 vs Nexus 5: Touchwiz vs vanilla Android 4.4 Kitkat
We pit Samsung's latest custom skin against Google's untouched alternative
SAMSUNG'S GALAXY S5 arrives running the newest version of the firm's Touchwiz user interface, and while it's a huge improvement compared to previous iterations, we still found the skin a little overbearing.
My Magazine, for example, is a widget that takes up a whole home page on the Galaxy S5. It is essentially Samsung's take on HTC Blinkfeed, and while it's good for those who like to keep up to date with the latest news, we found ourselves barely using it.
Samsung's Settings and Apps menus prove overbearing too. The Settings menu has over 60 options available, which means the handset can seem complicated to set up, while the Apps Menu is still home to a number of proprietary apps which we didn't find ourselves using.
The Nexus 5, on the other hand, doesn't come with any widgets or bloatware installed, and we noticed that swiping through the handset's interface was smoother than on the Galaxy S5. The Settings menus are much easier to use too, and we didn't find ourselves bogged down in unnecessary apps.

Game of Thrones Finale Recap: 'Mother's Mercy'

Six. Six Game of Thrones characters died in the season 5 finale, "Mother's Mercy." And one of those deaths marks arguably the show's greatest character loss yet (we felt every gut stab). Oh, and Arya (Maisie Williams) is blind. Shireen (Kerry Ingram) is still dead. Cersei (Lena Headey) just totally redefined a term for walking home after a hookup. And –
There is so much more. The finale followed two extreme, full-throttle episodes, and some may have expected Sunday's episode to take a breather and hit the brakes. Instead, Thrones continued the same relentless pace and emotional magnitude for its finale. Taken together, the last three hours of the season were incredible in their scope, ambition and narrative significance. While Thrones has been playing at a higher level in terms of its production values than the rest of television for years, I have a difficult time thinking of any series that – purely on a storytelling level – has had a triple-episode arc as intense as the past few weeks.
Game of Thrones Recap: 'The Dance of Dragons'

This is a Game of Thrones recap I have wanted to write for a long time.
Dany (Emilia Clarke) escaping the Daznak fighting pit while riding Drogon is one of the most exciting and climactic moments in George R.R. Martin's novels.
And the death of Shireen (Kerry Ingram) – which is not in the novels – is one of the most horrifying sequences in the show's history (and something I've been privately obsessing over since first hearing about it).
Thrones has always excelled at giving us moments of terror and triumph, but seldom have the highs and lows ever been so extreme, or come so quickly on top of each other, than in the past few episodes. We've had hugs and euphoria – Dany meets Tyrion (Peter Dinklage)! Jon's (Kit Harington) epic Hardhome battle! – and gut-punches and sadness – Ser Barristan (Ian McElhinney) dies, Sansa (Sophie Turner) is assaulted. And then tonight, in rapid succession, we witnessed the profoundly disturbing murder of an innocent child, and then saw the glory of a queen reclaiming her destiny – two scenes that could easily serve as the climax of an entire season on any other show, though it's tough to imagine any other series pulling them off as masterfully as Thrones did here (with the help of director David Nutter, who previously helmed season 3's Red Wedding episode).
I have a lot to say about the Shireen scene in particular. So I'm going to break my usual format and start with the scene I most want to talk about first, and then we'll recap the rest ...

Valyrian steel FTW! Bet you didn't know Valyrian steel can kill White Walkers, did you? Heck, even George R.R. Martin might not know that, given how this season has taken so many unexpected detours from the source material. Maybe crossbows and lemoncakes kill them too, you just never know until you try.
And so at last, we come to the big battle episode of season 5 – and you probably didn't even know there was a big battle episode in season 5. Unlike the Battle of the Blackwater in season 2 or the Battle of Castle Black in season 4, tonight's Hardhome fight was a surprise to the characters and the audience too since nobody ever knows what those unstoppable White Walkers are up to (maybe Thrones should give the Night's King his own sympathetic storyline in season 6 – then he'd really be in danger of getting killed off).
The structure of this episode was unusual too, with roughly half the episode your usual tasty Thrones-ian buffet of storylines – with Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) and Dany's (Emilia Clarke) banter as one supremely delectable appetizer – then the second half suddenly gave us a big beefy entree of Jon Snow (Kit Harington) slaying White Walkers for nearly 30 minutes.

Just a peaceful death from old age (but I half expected the next scene to be Jon Snow walking into Aemon's office and going, "Hey Aemon, I wanted to ask you who my real mom is – Aemon?").
– Sam lost his virginity after defending Gilly from being attacked. Our heads are spinning. Last week Sansa thought she was going to lose her virginity to her new husband, then got brutally raped. Now Gilly thought she was going to get gang-raped, yet helps Sam lose his virginity instead.
– How angry did Sansa's bruises make you? How much do we hate Ramsay at this point? Did everybody come back this week despite their anger? Show us on the doll where Game of Thrones hurt you.

Gov. Rick Scott Locks Down the Professional Wrestler Vote With Most Awkward News Conference Ever
youtube user jvarsallone
Things we never expected to see: Rick Scott and Triple H, sharing a stage. Unfortunately, no chairs were used to brain anybody. Still, strike that off the list.
The tag-team appearance was part of a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Orlando this month. The World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) is planning on opening a Global Performance Center there to train the next generation of spandex-stretching walking cartoons.
Triple H, who has pretty much hung up his singlet for a corporate job as the WWE's executive vice president, was on hand to mouth the standard precooked corporate praise of the governor.
"Without him, this wouldn't have been possible at all," H said of Scott. "He's responsible for the economic revival of Florida by making it business-friendly."

The 26,000-square-foot facility will house seven wrestling rings, a gym, a sports medicine program, and production and editing suites. The $2.3 million facility is expected to bring in something like 100 jobs.
Scott himself made some customary derpfaces from the stage before murdering a couple of jokes and banging the gong for his reelection bid. After, at a brief news conference with Triple H and his wife, Stephanie McMahon, the governor was even more awkward -- if not completely honest: "I love anybody that brings jobs to our state," Scott said, and you could see the unemployment numbers dancing before his eyes.
"I know everybody that comes to work here, they want to stay here. Every job is important. This is the entertainment capital of the world, as we all know," he said. "Ninety-one million tourists came last year. More tourists are going to come this year. And I know all are going to watch WWE. And there'll be more jobs for Floridians."
The real news, however, came later, when the three were dribbling back answers to media questions. One reporter asked Triple H about the chances of Florida housing the WWE's Hall of Fame -- a longtime project on the blackboard, lighting the interest of many fans.
"If I had to go out on a limb and say we we're moving forward on one, it would probably be here," Triple H said, referring to Florida. Then, the Rock busted through the wall to challenge Triple H to a rematch of their famous 2000 WrestleMania title brawl. Oh, wait, no, that didn't happen.

ANY time a car hits the road with more than 1000 new parts you know it's more than just an over-easy facelift job. Ford drilled that deeply for the creation of its vital new Territory, Holden has also dug deep for an impressive job on the comfort and control of its locally-made Cruze, and now we have an updated C-Class from Mercedes-Benz.
It's had a predictable facelift swoosh across the nose, with new lamps and a change to the grille opening, but the update work almost qualifies the 2012 model as a new car. The basic body is left alone, but everything from a new diesel hero engine with seven-speed automatic to the dashboard and suspension has been tweaked to improve the driving and ownership experience.
Even some of the small switches reflect a stronger focus on luxury- class quality. It's the biggest mid-life overhaul since the mid-sized E Class was reinvented in 2006 a s a reaction to huge customer complaints in Europe, and Benz admits a lot of the latest C Class work was triggered by owners.
Benz intends to use the C-twelve to re-set the value bar in Australia and, even without full price details, Carsguide predicts it will top a lot more shopping lists and make a stronger case against Audi and BMW.
The starting price for the C200 CDI sampler provided for Carsguide is $60,900, which is a $1890 reduction from the previous model. We're not su re how the petrol price will play out, or what's going to happen further up the C-Class line towards the thumping C63 AMG, but all the prices are likely to be very close to the current numbers.
Benz is also expecting plenty of support for the latest C Estate, which only adds $2000 to the bottom line.
"The Estate is also going really well. Counting C63 we'll do around 700 estates this year, which is about 10 per cent of our C-Class volume," says Gordon Jones, product manager at Mercedes -Benz Australia.
As usual, the basic C200 does not get all the fruit, but buyers can pick up and play for plenty of extra stuff and the car is prepared for equipment including distronic cruise control and more. But the emphasis is on the basics.
"For a Mercedes-Benz facelift, this is very significant. It even goes further than the changes to the E-Class in 2006 in how it answers customer feedback," says Jones.
Now it will be interesting to see how BMW, for a start, responds. It's just slashed prices on its six-cylinder 3 Series cars and the freshened Benz could force another look at the showroom stickers, particularly with a freshen on the Three expected within six weeks.
A new dash is a reflection of the electronic updates in the new C, which picks up many more of Benz's latest safety systems and such mundane-but-enjoyable stuff as a full-colour display for the multi- function screen. The central display unit is now finally integrated into the dash and not in an added-on separate binnacle.
"The new dashboard comes with a new telematics platform," says Jones.
On the engine front, the updated diesel is still a 2.1-litre unit but has a single, variable-vane turbo and has been switched to lower-pressure direct fuel delivery to cut noise and the dreaded diesel rattling.
The most significant change, though, is the seven-speed automatic gearbox that has been trickling down through the Benz family. The combination of the seven-speeder and the new diesel is some nice numbers, with 100 kiloWatts and 330 Newton-metres, economy of 5.4 litres/100km and CO2 emissions of 143 grams/kilometre. Even if the numbers don't look as strong as some of the C-twelve's opponents, the new auto provides an impressive multiplier.
"There is this perception that our engines are behind, but they're not. The performance they deliver is as good as it gets," says Jones.
There is other new stuff under the skin, including changes to the suspension and steering, and even the LEDs used for the parking radar display have been changed from circular to square in shape.
But Benz is taking time to sift through the detail before the car hits showrooms next month.
The front-end look is the same, but different. The headlamps now lift up into the eyebrows, the shape of the radiator inlet is changed, and even the park-radar sensors have been moved and are better integrated intead of lurking as pimples on the bumper. The tail end has also had a tweak, but the obvious stuff is in the cabin. The dash is smoother and cleaner and the design team has put a new emphasis on quality.
A five-star rating is carried over to the C-twelve, with all the usual Benz electronics. Even the basic car gets the reviver reminder for long-distance runs. You must pay more for the really tricky electronic stuff but it's available thanks to the updated electronics.
There is more substance to the new C. You can see it in t he dash and feel it through the wheel, which is new and thicker in the rim, right from the first few kilometres.
It's raining in Melbourne, and the roads are slick, but the C200 CDI gives a solid, comforting feel as we head out for some fuel-economy trials on the highway and a sprint into the hills over Peter Brock's favourite test roads. The cheaper bottom line on the new C is welcome, although only really what you expect with the strength of the Australian dollar, and the trip computer reflects impressive economy. The readout dips as low as 4.4 litres/100km at cruise and after a tough run with some really twisty hill roads it still sits at 7.7 when I return the car to Benz.
The engine is strong enough for the job, and well matched to the slick seven-speeder. It does not have as much shove as some others, as BMW is doing a great job on its diesels, but if you want super-economy you must have a manual gearbox in Audi's A4 TDI e.
The performance of the C is not something you would complain about in any case. It sits easily with other traffic and has a good overtaking hit. There feels to be more heft in the car, more compliance to the suspension, and some solid work on noise reduction. No-one would pick the CDI as a diesel without checking the redline on the rev counter. The dash is more user-friendly, both the C wagon and sedan have enough visual changes to satisfy a badge-conscious buyer, and the all-round impact is as big as any Benz update in recent times.
The C-twelve moves to the top of the tree and we cannot wait to see what BMW does with the 3-Series in a few weeks.
It's called a facelift but it's much more, and much better.

A Retirement Community, in Philipsburg, is a broad term that covers a variety of housing for retirees and seniors specially designed for people who no longer work or are above a certain age group. These retirement communities are planned or designed in such a way that cater to the needs of the retired and include amenities like clubhouses, swimming pools, boating, golf courses, and many more. These communities might be age restricted, in which case, it requires at least one household resident to be 55 years of age or older. There are several categorizations of retirement communities like the active communities, also known as independent living communities, active-supportive communities that are a combination of residential and healthcare facilities, and the supportive communities.
A retirement home ,on the other hand, is a housing facility that is intended for senior citizens. The house allows each person or couple in the house to have an apartment style room or suite of rooms. Some additional facilities like meals, gathering, recreation and health care are also provided within the building. The place in a retirement home can be paid on a rental basis, or bought in perpetuity. A retirement home differs from a retirement community in that it is a small building or a small complex where no common areas of socializing exist.

2003 Jeep Wrangler SUV Rubicon 4WD 2dr Convertible SUV (4.0L 6cyl 5M)
This is my second Jeep wrangler I had a 2001 sport and I loved it. Just when I thought Jeep couldn't get any better I bought the Jeep I've always wanted (well since 03) the Rubicon and I'm very impressed with its performance and capability.
Its go anywhere and all year round fun to drive.
probably fuel economy, but i'm putting some after market intake, muffler and chip to improve that.
2003 Jeep Wrangler SUV Rubicon 4WD 2dr Convertible SUV (4.0L 6cyl 5M)
I bought the Jeep back in January of 2007. It was not to a few little dings and soft top. I got it in Georgia and I dorve it to North Carolina and latter to Colorado. The thing gets about 18 to 20 mpg on the highway and 15 in town. Right now it has about 90,000 miles on it. The only problem I have had is the trakbar on the front axle. I have had to replace it twice but it happened within 5000 miles of each time it went out and the dealer replaced it free of charge the second time. The stock front bumper is a piece of junk also. I got a tube bumper that looks great and I am going to drive it back to North Carolina when I get back from my deployment.
Rubicon edition no other jeeps compare to what you get stock. The gas mileage is great for a jeep. between 18-20 on the highway.
The trak bars are not that great which I have heard of that as a problem on the TJs. The stock bumper is a piece of junk.
2003 Jeep Wrangler SUV Rubicon 4WD 2dr Convertible SUV (4.0L 6cyl 5M)
After 3 years of ownership and more than 35,000 miles of driving in every type of weather, terrain, on-and off-road condition, I have to say that the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon has impressed me as the best built and most capable Jeep that I've owned to date--this one makes Jeep #6. For a Jeep, the ride is comfortable and the seats allow greater adjustment over past models. The suspension is firm and well matched for both on road handling and off-road articulation. The hard top and soft top are both made well and equally quiet when driving at highway speeds. The sailcloth soft top is holding up much better than my previous soft tops from earlier TJ models. This one's a keeper!
The dual lockers are truly what makes the Rubicon unique from my other Jeeps. Put it in low 4wd, hit the button and hang on because it's going wherever it's pointed!
I liked the Goodyear MT/Rs when they were new. They are tough off-road tires! However, as they wear, they became dangerous on wet surfaces. This prompted me to switch to the new Cooper STTs that have siping for better rain and wet surface traction. The STTs also do very well off-road.
2003 Jeep Wrangler SUV Rubicon 4WD 2dr Convertible SUV (4.0L 6cyl 5M)
Excellent truck, horrible on gas, easy to do work yourself, pulls large objects with ease (trees, vehicles stuck in mud). Eats gas though and be ready for frequent tire rotations. Also eats starters if you take it mudding.
Front and rear lockers, transfer case gearing, axle gearing, rock guards, rear disc brakes, NO ABS (don't need it on rock crawling) and aggressive puncture resistant tires convertible in the summer & unstoppable snow beast in the winter.
Stereo system is adequate but that's it. And uh, make the starter able to put up with mud use.
2003 Jeep Wrangler SUV Rubicon 4WD 2dr Convertible SUV (4.0L 6cyl 5M)
Happy with everything except disappointed with the engine performance. It seems that the engine will backfire on a downshift once and a while. The Jeep dealer told me that someone else was complaining about it and that it was bad gas. So I've tried different gas stations and It's still a problem. I suspect it's a fuel management issue and is normal for very long straight inline six design.The horsepower is lacking for the size of the six and how much gas mileage you get out of it. I bought the Jeep for the power but 4 cylinder cars passed me in the Rockies. Technologically It seems behind the times, related to engine performance. Need some R&D for a factory installed supercharger.
The classic look of the Jeep. It's the most rugged compact SUV available, very confident when headed for the mountains or when in snow/mud. It's great for finding those small parking spots without having to think about cars damaging your bumper. It's easy to work on since it's not too complex.
Add more technology to the engine to improve gas mileage versus performance. Fix engine hesitation during a down shift with a five speed manual. Add a defrost option with a recycle mode as well, so I don't have to breath the smog. On Tomb Raider edition the screws loosen on bushwacker fenders.

CVWMA's regional recycling rate surpasses 55 percent
More than 55 percent of the waste generated in the Metro Richmond region was recycled last year, according to estimates by the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality. The figure was an increase from the estimate made by the Central Virginia Waste Management Authority (53.6 percent).
CVWMA, a cooperative government agency that coordinates recycling and other waste management programs with thirteen area local governments, compiles the annual regional recycling rate and submits the information to the Virginia DEQ. State law requires that the region recycle at least 25 percent of its waste each year.
Nearly 178,568 tons of paper-related material (newspaper, office paper and cardboard) was recycled in 2010. Yard waste and wood waste, which are chipped into compost or mulch, composed another 193,258 tons recycled. Metals, textiles, glass and plastic are also measured for the report. Auto bodies, appliances and assorted other metal items made up the nearly 36,538 tons of metal that were recycled in 2010. Clothing donations to organizations such as Goodwill and the Salvation Army contributed to the textiles total of about 5,286 tons.
The trash generation figure is an estimate based on national research. The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that citizens create an average of 4.34 pounds of trash per person per day.
The recycling rate was computed by dividing the amount recycled in the region by the amount of trash generated. The amount recycled was gathered from local and national businesses providing recycling to the area. The total amount recycled and not land filled for the region in CY 2010 was 458,611 tons, compared to 425,910 tons in CY 2009.
CVWMA recycling programs include curbside collection and drop-off centers; yard waste, electronics, appliance, batteries, HHW and tires, among others. Curbside recycling collects approximately 34,000 tons annually, while drop-off recycling collects about 6,000 tons.
The regional rate has remained above 50 percent for the past several years, giving Central Virginia one of the highest recycling regions in the state. (It was 52.8 percent in both CY 2000 and 2010.) Variations in the rate are attributed to the number of businesses that provide information to CVWMA. Contributions are voluntary.

text: (This is Part 1 in a series that will spotlight five 49ers players to watch Friday night in the team's exhibition opener against the Minnesota Vikings on Friday night, 6 p.m., at Candlestick Park.)All the starters are back on defense. And most of the starters return on offense. The most notable exception is at right guard, where the 49ers will have a new face.Alex Boone has never played right guard in his life. This will be his first opportunity to showcase his play against an unfamiliar opponent. It's going to be Boone's position to lose, as the team prepares for the regular-season opener Sept. 9 at the Green Bay Packers.The 49ers can only hope Boone sees a lot of Vikings defensive tackle Kevin Williams. Boone could benefit greatly from going against Williams, a 10-year professional and six-time Pro Bowl player. But it's doubtful Williams will see much action. And Boone might not be on the field for more than a series or two, either.The 49ers have placed a lot of trust in Boone's ability to adapt to guard. The organization made no attempt to re-sign Adam Snyder, who finished the season with a string of 15 consecutive starts, including both playoff games. They also did not offer a contract to Chilo Rachal, who began last season as the starter, struggled and was replaced by Snyder.Instead, the 49ers determined that Boone would be a better option. Boone was the 49ers' swing tackle last season. He is learning how to play in tight spaces. He said the key to playing guard is to become a mauler.So far, he has performed well in camp. But if he falters, veteran Leonard Davis has performed well enough to receive serious consideration for the job.

Filippis Pizza Grotto
In 1950, Italian immigrants Madeleine and Vincent DePhilippis moved to San Diego, where they opened Filippi's Cash and Carry, a deli grocery on India Street.

They also serve delicious paninis, gourmet salads, and have a gourmet cheese bar every Wednesday night.
Indigo Grill

Their centerpiece beef dish is the parrillada, a symphony of beef cuts, sausages, sweetbreads, and chicken. Sliced tomatoes in a creamy Roquefort sauce are the perfect starter, or consider the Bombonera pizza with prosciutto, heart of palm, and olives.

Jofa is a four-legged wet nosed warrior who is now back home after being on the front lines of the war on terror.
Jofa and his original handlerSgt. Zainah Creamerwere a team few could match.
"This particular team had a closer bond than I had seen before," said Captain Aulbrio Fennell.
The two were deployed together in 2010. But, during a mission in January 2011, Sgt. Creamer stepped on an explosive device with Jofa still on the leash.
Jofa was unharmed physically, but was sent back to Fort Belvoir to be examined.
"You could tell things are different with him," Fennell said.
"It's hard on them just like it's hard on our people," said Military canine expert, Dr. Walter Burghardt.
Burghardt says at least five percent of dogs that experience traumatic combat experiences like Jofa can suffer side effects.
Burghardt says this troubling behavior is consistent with canine post-traumatic stress disordersimilar name, but different than the human condition.
"We can't rely on symptoms We have to really at their observable behavior," Burghdart said.
Burghardt says some highly trained military working dogs developed PTSD after long-term combat exposure.
"They've got these exposures to things exploding People running all over the placethose are the things that seem to be the predisposing factors," Burgdardt said.
Some PTSD dogs take months to recover, while others never bounce back. Jofa was able to get right back into training.
"I think right now he's great he's fine," said his new handler, Staff Sgt. Matthew Holley.
Holley says he doesn't know if they'll be deployed together, but, he believes Jofa is prepared if duty calls again.
"We go train. We patrol. I trust him... He trusts me," Holley said.
Dr. Burghardt says about half of dogs diagnosed with PTSD are able to go back into military service. The other half are typically adopted or transferred to another area to work.
Creamer gave the ultimate sacrifice and now the hope is that Jofa will share the same unique bond with his new handler Holley.
Sgt. Creamer is receiving a special honor as well. The kennel at Fort Belvoir{} is dedicated to her.
