Open Minds
Bassist Mads Vinding begins his latest album with two songs closely associated with Miles Davis, and approaches them with more abstraction than the trumpeter did in the 1960s. On "Someday My Prince Will Come," pianist Jean-Michel Pilc tiptoes around the melody, delaying phrases and cleverly catching up with them before the next change. "My Funny Valentine" becomes a wonderfully dark dirge, rendering the central theme unrecognizable without a diligent search for it.
Things really get wild when they take on "Summertime," playing it in a fashion combining Duke Ellington's infamous 1961 trio version with Cecil Taylor. In case it isn't obvious, all of these attributes are positive: Taking these standards and interpreting them anew makes this an enjoyable outing.
Vinding has played with drummer Billy Hart for more than three decades, supporting Stan Getz and Hank Jones, among others. Pilc comes to the duo fresh, and he displays a diversity that fit right in. Along with his raucous "Hardly Like an Evening Sunset" (clever title, no?), he later shows a tender side on the ballad "Sam." The trio's cohesion is never more evident than on the title track, a set of short motifs including a delicate bass intro and some free flying, each section stopping on a dime. Their speedy version of "Straight No Chaser" might be a little too uptempo, but album closer "I Skovens Dybe Stille Ro"—a traditional Danish song led by the bass—rights that wrong by ending the project on a strong spiritual note.

Janeane Garofalo likes her politicians like she likes her coffee…black. In her most recent psychotic attempt to help the black achiever Herman Cain, Garofalo ranted:
People like Karl Rove liked to keep the racism very covert. And so Herman Cain provides this great opportunity so that you can say, "Look, this is not a racist, anti-immigrant, anti-female, anti-gay movement. Lookit, we have a black man!"
Lookit we have a black man!? Cain is a black man with a bachelor's degree in mathematics and a master's degree in computer science, a black man who worked as a mathematician for the Navy specializing in missile ballistics.
Cain is a black man who took charge of Pillsbury's poorest performing 400 Burger King restaurants in the Philadelphia area and in three years turned them into the company's best performers. Cain is a black man who made the almost-bankrupt Godfather's Pizza profitable in 14 months.
Cain is a black man who became an adviser to the Federal Reserve on monetary policy affecting business and finished his corporate career as chairman of a regional Federal Reserve Bank—one small step from running America's most powerful banking system.
Why would the Republicans possibly support a black guy with Cain's credentials? He's far too qualified to be president. According to Garofalo, Herman Cain is a token but too stupid to recognize it. If only Cain were an unqualified metrosexual man of questionable African descent, the Republicans would have hit the trifecta!
Consider Garofalo's statement regarding liberal women:
We're our own worst enemies a lot of the time, but I still blame men.
She might as well have said, "Democrats are our own worst enemies, but I still blame Republicans."
Garofalo knows she is demented; to her credit, she admitted in a 2003 interview that she had "overcome a sobriety problem with alcohol." If you were Janeane Garofalo, would you want to deal with yourself sober?
Garofalo looks for darkness. She told an interviewer:
I guess I just prefer to see the dark side of things.
Garofalo seems fixated on dark politicians. When she is not "helping" America's first dark—well, or at least semi-dark—president, she's counseling a fully dark presidential candidate. As Garofalo warned, "You get pigeonholed if you don't look a certain way."
Sort of like how liberals pigeonhole black people to be Democrats?
The roots of Garofalo's incessant need to help lowly Negroes may be found in Garofalo's misguided view of America, as she revealed here:
Our country is founded on a sham…our forefathers were slave-owning rich white guys who wanted it their way. So when I see the American flag, I go, "Oh my God, you're insulting me."
America's Founding Fathers. Those self-indulgent rich white slave owners had the nerve to actually attempt eliminating slavery in Article 1 Section 9 of the Constitution, which disallowed the importation of slaves after Jan 1, 1808. For Garofalo the preamble reads, "We the people—but not black people…."
Those creative Democrats got around that little constitutional "importation" verbiage with a technicality: They made slaves of slave's children.
How's that for progressive thinking? This creative thinking is a major cause of the Civil War. But don't let me interrupt Garofalo's delusions with the FACTS!
Here is another piece of history that might shock Garofalo: In 1654, black slave John Casor sought freedom from Anthony Johnson, a black slave owner—the first official slave owner in America. Uh-oh…the dirty little secret revealed.
Casor had fought to gain his freedom from Johnson, saying that he was an indentured servant being kept beyond his term of servitude by Johnson and that he was not a slave.
A Northampton court ruled against him, and thus Casor became the first person to be declared a "slave for life."
You know that all-white Northampton court was conflicted. Either way they ruled, a black man would benefit. Or as Garofalo would believe, either way the court ruled, a black man got "railroaded by 'the man.'"
Slave for life. A progressive concept started by a progressive black man, propagated by a group of progressive white men.
It should come as no surprise that Garofalo named her production company "I Hate Myself Productions." That name might explain why Garofalo enjoys "helping" black people so much, as she brings such a positive attitude. As Cleavon Little said in Blazing Saddles, "Hey, where are da white women at?"
Garofalo craves relevance, but she doesn't know who or what she is. Garofalo is the one thing for sure: the worst kind of racist, delusional enough to believe she is better than black people. What would an accomplished black man like Herman Cain do without Janeane "Guardian of the Lowly Negro" Garofalo?

Everyone loves a good accent. Though many people differ on what constitutes a sexy accent, most can agree that some are certainly better than others. For example, no one would argue that Gilbert Gottfried has the sexiest of all accents. It's just not going to happen.
So whose voices qualify as some of the sexiest the celebrity world has to offer?
First on the list is Tom Hiddleston, who played Loki in 'The Avengers.' His accent is so sexy that women all over the world fell in love with him, despite the fact that he was playing a villain. Now that's taking sexiness to a whole new level!

News Overview
New version 3.4 of PRESTIGEenterprise available
Weinheim, 12 April 2013 +++ Version 3.4 of the PRESTIGEenterprise software is now available. In the new version, Online Software AG, the technological leader in the field of professional branch advertising, has focused in particular on the direction of the software's continued development for the support of multi-channel marketing. This means that many of the new features are designed to make thorough use of different advertising channels. An example of such a channel is the MobileBrowser app, available now for free from the App Store. It allows the retailer to manage both in-store TV programme planning and printing orders, all direct from the retail area using a mobile device. The EAN can be recorded simply by using the camera built into the iPhone or iPad. This turns any affordable smartphone into an active multi-channel tool for every branch employee.
PRESTIGEenterprise 3.4's support of HTML5 content broadens the spectrum of supported formats for animated content. This means that many new programs are supported, such as Adobe Edge or MacFlux, which are becoming more and more commonly used by designers and agencies. This website content can be integrated just as easily into a PRESTIGEenterprise template. This not only saves time and money, but also unifies communication across all channels.
What's more, the new PRESTIGEenterprise version 3.4 also brings with it a number of interesting innovations. For even better performance, and to make full use of server capacity, PRESTIGEenterprise 3.4 now also provides full support for 64-bit versions of Windows Server 2008R2/2012. The use of Integrated Mode in Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS) improves performance still further.
To improve organisation and assignment of images, videos and web content, group-related content and templates have also been added, making it possible to restrict different people's access to logos and images, for example. PRESTIGEenterprise 3.4's user interface in the print container area has also been optimised. For example, the print container now has an option to assign new templates to all display boards with no popups or intermediate dialogues.
As well as this, some processes have been given the ability to run in the background. There are no wait times for the user, who can switch freely between modules in the meantime. Once the background process – such as importing a large quantity of item information – is complete, the user is notified by a small balloon window. In addition, a new page has been added to the administrator configuration panel to monitor the services found on the server, allowing the administrator to make changes. This dispenses with the need to call in higher-level IT support, in turn reducing support costs.
About Online Software AG
Online Software AG is a modern, innovative software company focussing on the development of solutions for the international wholesaler and retailer. Online is the market leader in the area of professional branch advertising with the poster and label-printing software PRESTIGE having over 31,000 installations in 35 countries and in 20 languages.

Budget Issues:
Budget Enforcement Compliance Report
AIMD-99-100: Published: Apr 1, 1999. Publicly Released: Apr 1, 1999.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-9573
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed compliance by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) with the requirements of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, focusing on OMB and CBO reports issued for legislation enacted during the 2nd session of the 105th Congress, which ended on October 21, 1998.
GAO noted that: (1) CBO and OMB substantially complied with the act; (2) however, some of the required OMB reports were issued late; (3) the Deficit Control Act (DCA) sets a specific timetable for issuance of OMB reports; (4) by law, OMB must issue sequestration reports at three specific times during the calendar year: (a) the preview report when the President submits his budget; (b) the update on August 20; and (c) the final report 15 days after the end of a congressional session; (5) OMB issued its fiscal year (FY) 1999 sequestration update report on August 26, 1998--6 days late; (6) its final report was issued December 10, 1998--35 days later than the required date of November 5, 1998; (7) if OMB had issued its report on the required date, the report would have excluded, at a minimum, nine pieces of legislation that were passed by Congress but that had not been signed by the President before DCA's 15-day deadline; (8) assuming no other changes in the issuance of other scoring reports, the final sequestration report would not have included the impact of 5 of the appropriations acts and 18 of the 51 pieces of pay-as-you-go (PAYGO) legislation; (9) as was the case for FY 1997 and FY 1998, OMB issued many of its FY 1999 scorekeeping reports late; (10) all 7 of its discretionary scorekeeping reports and 41 of its 51 PAYGO scorekeeping reports were issued later than the time specified by law; (11) the DCA requires OMB to issue scorekeeping reports within 7 working days after enactment; (12) on average, the 1999 reports were issued 11.2 working days after enactment; (13) of the 58 reports issued prior to the issuance of the final sequestration report, 83 percent were issued late, a decline in timeliness from FY 1998 and FY 1997 reports; (14) half of the 1998 reports and about 70 percent of the 1997 reports were issued late; (15) according to OMB, part of the reason for the increased delay was the volume of legislation enacted at the end of this session of Congress; (16) five of the seven discretionary acts were enacted in the last 2 weeks of the session; (17) one-third of the PAYGO legislation was enacted in the last 2 weeks of the session or before the statutory date for OMB's final sequestration report; (18) GAO found several implementation issues in which OMB and CBO differed in: (a) PAYGO scorekeeping; (b) appropriations scoring; and (c) cap adjustments; and (19) the use of emergency spending designations was different this year than in prior years.

He'll have other things to annoy him as well, like Nathan questioning him about his interest in Mel.

Patient Stories
Ultimately, we measure quality on a very personal level -- each patient's life that we save and each patient who has a better quality of life because of the skill of our physicians or a new treatment option we provide. Our commitment to quality is renewed by every patient's story. We are pleased to share some of these stories with you.
Breast Cancer Team Combines Quality of Life With Quality Treatment
At age 20, Eloise Orr was diagnosed with breast cancer, the same disease that her mother died from at age 35. Over several years, Orr battled recurrent breast cancer and brain tumors, but was determined to not let cancer prevent her from achieving her dreams. "We tailored an entire regimen around her plans so this [treatment] wouldn't be an obstacle in her life fulfillment," said David Song, MD.
LVAD Surgery Restores the Life of a Heart Failure Patient
A left ventricular assist device not only saved Howard Dybedock's life, it restored it. Before receiving the device that boosts the pumping action of his heart, Dybedock had so little energy that he found himself stopping to catch his breath after just a few steps. Today, he's back at work running his company. Dybedock also serves as a resource to help other LVAD patients get acclimated to living with the lifesaving implant.
A Race Against Time: Surviving Stroke at Age 19
At age 19, Pamela Hsieh suffered a stroke and was whisked to the University of Chicago medical campus via helicopter where a care team was ready to provide immediate, life-saving care. After treatment at the University of Chicago, Hsieh has regained enough movement to hike mountains in the West.
Father and Daughter Fight Through Crohn's Disease
After several years of medical treatment for Crohn's disease that offered little relief, Rick Strong turned to University of Chicago inflammatory bowel disease experts for help. Our specialists offered Strong surgical and medical options that helped control his flare-ups. When his daughter, Victoria, showed signs of the disease, Strong again turned to University of Chicago experts to manage Victoria's Crohn's disease.
Innovations in Stem Cell Transplant Allow Parent to Become Donor: Cameron's Story
Cameron Dykstra was born with severe combined immunodeficiency syndrome (SCID), a condition commonly known as "bubble boy disease." The stem cells in the infant's bone marrow did not produce functioning lymphocytes -- cells that play a crucial role in fighting disease. But within a week of coming to the University of Chicago Medicine Comer Children's Hospital, his father's donated blood stem cells – purified using a new, innovative technique -- were transplanted to Cameron where they took over the task of defending the infant's body against harmful bacteria and viruses.

Loaded Roasted Chile Guacamole
Hey, there.
Baby's due in a little over a week, and all I've wanted to do lately is sit on the couch with a big bowl of something. What that "something" is changes by the hour. Sometimes it's watermelon. Or fresh pineapple. Or ice cream. Or THIS guacamole and a big bag of chips.
I heart guacamole a whole bunch. I love both my classic version and my lazy version. When I tried this chunky, loaded, full of chile & lime version, I knew it wasn't going to last long when the rest of the family started eating on it.
(We all heart guac.)
Totally should have stashed this one in the back of the fridge for an afternoon "snack" the next day.
Loaded Roasted Chile Guacamole
3 fresh New Mexico, Anaheim, or poblano chiles
1 medium lime
3 medium ripe avocadoes, pitted and peeled
3 green onions, chopped
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/2 cup medium-diced fresh tomato
2 radishes, slivered
2-3 T crumbled feta cheese
chips or vegetables, for serving
Roast chiles under an oven broiler, on a grill, or directly on a gas burner. Turn occasionally until outside of pepper is covered in black, charred spots. This should take 8-10 minutes. When chiles are roasted, place in a bowl, cover, and set aside to steam for a few minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel, seed, and chop the chiles. (The skin should be easy to remove if you make sure to let them steam.)
Zest and juice the lime into a medium bowl. Add avocado and coarsely mash. Stir in the scallions, cilantro, cumin, and salt. Season to taste with salt and lime juice. Fold in the tomatoes and roasted chiles.
Transfer to a serving bowl and top with slivered radishes and feta.

One thing that I have craved for investors is a tool that allows you to sync all your investment accounts in one place, but one that also gives you more investment related analysis.
I took out an account to do a full Personal Capital review of the financial aggregator, which means you can link all of your financial accounts – your investment portfolio, your checking and savings accounts, credit cards and other loan accounts – all into the same platform.
That means that the site will provide you with a place where you can view your entire financial life in one place.
Mint does a fantastic job of giving you numbers, but falls short on giving you a greater insight into your overall investment portfolio.
For my clients, I subscribe to Blueleaf – which is fantastic. The only downside is that you have to be my client (or another advisor that uses it) to get access to it. I realize that everyone will not be my client so the hunt continued for another option. I then discovered Personal Capital.
I was so excited to learn more about it that I immediately signed up. I synced all my investment accounts to give Personal Capital a try. In the meantime, I had Kevin write a review about them so you can better understand how this awesome (and often free) program works. Looking for a great way to invest? Check out our other reviews to help you get started today:


text: First of all, if this is in the wrong section, Sorryyyy. I will show you how to get your iDevice into Recovery Mode and DFU Mode. DFU and Recovery are not the same thing. While in DFU mode, your device is kind of forced to restore. In Recovery Mode, it doesn't always have to restore. First off, if you mess up entering DFU, don't worry, just hard reset (hold both top and home buttons down for 10 seconds) until it reboots, then try again. HOW TO ENTER RECOVERY MODE Since this is easier, let's start with this. 1. Open iTunes on your PC/Mac 2. Make sure your device is OFF and UNPLUGGED. 3. Hold down the home button. 4. Plug your device in. 5. The device should boot, show the Apple logo, and after a few seconds, the "Connect to iTunes" screen. Ta da! You just entered Recovery Mode, restore in iTunes now! HOW TO ENTER DFU MODE This is the harder one, I suggest you have someone with a stopwatch. :3 There are some methods to enter DFU mode without pressing anything or timing anything, it's done through a computer. I have not tried this, try at your own risk. DFU stands for Device Firmware Upgrade. 1. Start iTunes on your PC/Mac. Make sure volumes up! 2. Make sure the iDevice is ON and PLUGGED in. 3. Hold the top buttons and home buttons for about 10 seconds 4. Then let go of the top button and keep holding the home button. 5. If you hear sounds from your computer, like beeps, that is COMPLETELY NORMAL. 6. iTunes should say it has detected an "iPod" or "iPhone" in Recovery Mode. Normal! 7. If the screen shows "Connect to iTunes" that is NOT DFU mode. The screen should be black, and the device should be displayed in iTunes. 8. Restore. Please leave a comment telling me if I posted false info. Constructive Criticism, leave a compliment if you feel like doing so. -narwal13

McDonald's Japan halts sales of Chinese chicken
By Harumi Ozawa, AFP
July 26, 2014, 12:00 am TWN
TOKYO -- McDonald's said Friday that its restaurants in Japan had stopped selling products made with chicken from China, in a marked widening of a scandal that saw expired meat sold to fast food giants.
More than 3,000 restaurants across Japan had also halted imports of chicken products from the country, the chain said, as it switched to distributors in Thailand "to address the concerns of our customers."
"We made this decision in view of the growing concern over McDonald's chicken products made in China," the Japanese unit's chief executive Sarah Casanova said in a statement.
The move came as McDonald's in Hong Kong said it would no longer sell chicken nuggets and several other items sourced from a U.S.-owned firm in China at the centre the scandal.
"Out of stock" stickers were placed on menus around the southern Chinese city over products such as McDonald's McSpicy Chicken Filet and Chicken McNuggets.
"Prior to concerns being raised this week about food safety at the Shanghai facility, we had already stopped using products from the Shanghai plant, with the last import being in May," the fast food chain's Hong Kong unit said.
"There was no product from Husi Shanghai being sold to our customers," it added, as it suspended all sourcing from the firm's other plants.
In Japan, the change would affect eight dishes, including Chicken McNuggets and Chicken Fillet-O, it said.
Earlier this week, Japan's giant Family Mart convenience store chain and McDonald's restaurants in the country stopped selling chicken nuggets sourced from the scandal-hit plant near Shanghai.
China has been rocked by a series of food and product safety problems due to lax enforcement of regulations and corner-cutting by producers.
One of the worst incidents occurred in 2008 when the industrial chemical melamine was found to have been illegally added to dairy products, killing at least six babies and making 300,000 people ill.
'Terribly wrong'

Julie Lamb - Trippin' The Light
"If you catch me, don't burn yourself", enunciates Julie Lamb in Tell Me Who I Am, the opening track on her second album Trippin' the Light. It's some fitting phrasing indeed when we view the record in its entirety. Lamb is proud to have combined rock, blues, jazz and various other sounds into a fiery but positive sequence.
She's proud for good reason - Time Flies carries the listener in with some great aural momentum. Lamb's vocals, along with the instrumental and choral talents of her passionate backing musicians, make for a piece that seems to tend toward progressive metal.
The following track Undone is a much more sombre song, but just as notable. An assortment of absolutely fantastic string and wind instruments create a brilliant crescendo around the middle of the song - one of the most memorable passages in the album for this reviewer.
Kill Me With Your Promise comes as another great driving number halfway through the album. This is one of the best examples of guitar work on Trippin' the Light, beautifully produced to sound raw and gritty whilst also being easy on the ear. Cold Rainy Nights is even more easy-going, being a lovely country-tinged track.
Lamb has become well-acquainted with the fact that playing gigs as a musician is only a fleeting temporary buzz. Trippin' the Light certainly displays her range of musical talents in a way that people can get a hold of and keep for posterity, in their minds as well as in their sound systems. It's a winner.

wut do i have to do to graduate from uni......a 4 year degree....in 2 years? im a jr and i will have taken 9 AP tests and hopefully passed at least 8........?? so that might help?

u'd have to build a time machine and travel back at the end of two years to your freshman year and take the two years of courses that you neglected.

phew! that's all? no problem.
by the way, a watch is technically a time machine. you should say something like time traveling machine...something along those lines.

well... if i get my predicted scores on my 8 APs... ill begin college with 40 credits, average beginning sophomore has 30... with summer classes and the like... 2 years is possible... two and a half more likely
so i guess it depends on the number of hours your college will give you for each class
|By Andrey1225 (Andrey1225) on Thursday, January 01, 2004 - 12:53 pm: Edit
why would you want to graduate in 2 years? you'd be missing out on a lot of fun times at college and the 2 years you gain in the job market are pretty much meaningless....no ones going to care if youre 20 or 22 when youre going for a job, they might even expect the 22 year old to do a better job since they've had 2 years of life experience on you. you're asking a very naive and inane question and hopefully (unless its for financial reasons) you won't only take 2 years of college.
btw, I have some friends who are finishing up UCLA in 3 years because of sophomore standing and are completely fine with it--but their reasons are more financial....their parents really cant afford to keep them in college an extra year (20 grand).
|By Clickspring (Clickspring) on Thursday, January 01, 2004 - 03:57 pm: Edit
There's no way you can complete a degree program in only two years. Even if you take 20 hours a semester, 80 plus what you earn from your APs will not be enough. Maybe in 5 semesters, but you would have to really push through your major. Definetly not possible for engineering. Besides, why would you want to cut your college experience short?
|By Melissamelissa (Melissamelissa) on Thursday, January 01, 2004 - 07:42 pm: Edit
its because i want to go to a college in europe and be with my family ASAP. My parents, being foreign (and for those who a foreign parents u know about how much they push for you to go to a "good college," or rather one with a good name), insist one me going to UCLA or UCB. I have to make them happy so im gonna go, but I wanna get my degree and go overseas as soon as a I can, to make myself happy. I want a 4-year degree, so I was just wondering how soon I could get it. Is the university system the same as high school…..u just need certain credits for so many subjects?
Thanks everyone and happy new year!

Our Blackboard courses are like our cars. We spend a lot of time in them. They require maintenance, and when they're up and running, they help us reach beyond our homes and classrooms.
And when we get a new car, it can take a while to figure out where everything is located on the dashboard. Certainly, it is much safer to know this information before you get on the Interstate to drive home.
This is why training on Blackboard Learn 9.1 is so important to our current migration, and to assist with the transition, the STaR office is providing a variety of resources and training opportunities.
Currently we offer five different training tracks, broken down according to session formats such as face-to-face two hour sessions, three day comprehensive boot camps, and online self-paced courses.
Track 1 – Blackboard Basics: Depending upon whether starting from scratch or working with a migrated course, these two hour workshops focus on everything you need to know to get started teaching in Blackboard Learn 9.1. (link to the road to redesign)
Track 2 – Fundamentals: Go in depth with our two hour fundamentals workshops, covering all the basic components necessary to deliver an online course. These workshops can help if you've attended Blackboard Basics, or if you are familiar with Blackboard Learn 9.1 and want to learn more about a specific tool.
Track 3 – Communication and Collaboration: This track focuses on the tools used to incorporate communication and collaboration as well as best practices for doing so. After completing a Track 1 workshop, participants are ready for either Track 2 or 3.
Track 4 – Blackboard Boot Camp: Boot camp involves three days of intensive training on the fundamentals of course delivery in Learn 9.1. The first two days are dedicated to the fundamentals while the third day provides an open-lab format to work on a migrated or built-from-scratch course. There are no prerequisites for Track 4.
Track 5: Online Facilitate Asynchronous Training: offers an online-only opportunity. There are currently four courses in this series including: Getting Started, Building Courses, Designing Engaging Content, and Building Online Communities. We recommend beginning with the Getting Started course before moving on to the others.

Valley Decorating will be recognized by the Fresno City Council on Thursday as its latest "PrimeTime for Business" selection. Valley Decorating is a locally owned company which, despite being a hidden gem in the downtown community, has become the life of the party across the United States.
Each month, the City's Department of Downtown and Community Revitalization invites selected local companies to appear before the City Council to share background on their business. Valley Decorating was founded in 1946 by Matt Offen as a manufacturer of fun-oriented products. The company found success by transforming light plastic film into décor used at special events all over the world. Valley Decorating has introduced items such as "Crinkle" Curtains used for television games shows, confetti, streamers, party fringe and more. Having first developed the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader Pom Pack, Valley Decorating now supplies cheerleader pompoms to teams across the U.S. including those in the NFL, NBA and PAC 10 colleges. This Fresno gem has also found its way to New York City where the company supplies 800 pounds of confetti, 30,000 pompoms and 8,000 feet of streamers for the Times Square Celebration on New Years Eve.Valley Decorating is an example of the various "PrimeTime" businesses that are showcased in front of the Fresno City Council each month. "The goal of PrimeTime for Business is to show our city and community some of the unique, innovative and industry-leading local business that call Fresno home," said Craig Scharton, Director of the city's Downtown and Community Revitalization Department.

Title: Mechanisms of Pesticide Transport to Surface Water at the Field Scale in a Dryland-Agriculture Region
Focus Categories: ST, HYDROL, WQL
Keywords: Agriculture, Contaminant Transport, Groundwater Hydrology, Groundwater Quality, Herbicides, Leaching, Organic Compounds, Pollutants, Rivers, Runoff, Solute Transport, Unsaturated Flow, Water Quality
Project Duration: The project duration shall be 3/1/99 to 2/28/2000.
Fiscal year 1999 federal funds: __$18,120__ (Total)
Fiscal year 1999 Non-federal funds: ___$36,501__ (Total)
Principal investigator(s) name(s) and University: Richelle Allen-King, C. Kent Keller, John Schaumloffel, Washington State University
Congressional district of university where the research is to be conducted: 5th
Pesticides (insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides) are repeatedly applied to farm fields with the intent of increasing the productivity of agricultural crops. While the increased and more efficient food production derived from chemical use is beneficial to society, the accumulative effect of adding pesticides to crops within a regional area can have adverse effects on the quality of water resources, placing at risk both human and environmental health. The State of Washington Water Research Center has highlighted the identification of sources, amounts and types of pollutants entering streams and groundwater aquifers as Research Priority Areas II. B. and II. C. (Attachment D, Call for Research Proposals).
River basin-scale research conducted by U.S. Geological Survey and Washington Department of Ecology scientists has demonstrated that many pesticides are detectable in surface and groundwaters of Washington state - few are detected at concentrations which exceed a water quality standard. However, triallate (trade name, Far-go), has been detected in the Palouse River at Hooper at concentrations which exceed a freshwater chronic criteria for aquatic life. While these data demonstrate that triallate, an herbicide used extensively in the Palouse region of Washington state, is present in surface water, no studies in the region exist which provide information about the pathways by which triallate enters the surface water. Few studies on the fate of this chemical at the field-scale have been conducted in any region - none have been conducted in the Palouse region. Without information about transport pathways at the field-scale, solutions which will effectively reduce surface water concentrations cannot be determined. The proposed study will determine the triallate mass discharge entering surface water from each of the overland and subsurface pathways at the field-scale. The triallate mass discharge data to be collected as part of the proposed project will be used to evaluate the primary pathway(s) for compound transport. It is expected that the process-based information collected will be useful in providing an improved understanding of the transport of other moderately hydrophobic organic pollutants in the hydrologic system in this region.
The proposed research project will be the first field-scale study of the transport pathways for triallate in this region. Because the determination of subsurface transport is an important component of the work, the distribution of triallate within the subsurface will be better characterized than it has been previously. The project focuses on a mass balance or accounting of the chemical. Because the study begins to focus attention on the processes which control transport, the information gained will provide insights on the fate of other chemicals with similar physicochemical properties. We anticipate that the study will help to transform the conceptual model for chemical transport in the shallow subsurface in this region. The results of this quantitative and hypothesis-driven study will be publishable in an internationally recognized journal, such as the Journal of Contaminant Hydrology.
This project establishes a new avenue of research on a topic of regional and statewide water quality importance within the existing contaminant hydrology program at WSU. The project involves the development of research linkages between the Departments of Geology and Chemistry within the WSU campus. An active contaminant hydrology program will benefit WSU students by exposing them to high-quality and topical hydrologic research, and better prepare them to address Washington's environmental problems after graduation. The research will be of interest to both farmers in the region interested in minimizing herbicide expenditures and loss to surface water, and to the Washington Department of Ecology (WDOE) in strategic planning to clean-up Washington's surface water. PI Allen-King can make this information accessible to WDOE staff by continued participation in their Science Advisory Board.
Goal and Objectives
The occurrence of pesticides in surface waters is in part a consequence of increased chemical usage to improve agricultural productivity over the past approximately 50 years. Pesticides can be relatively mobile when suspended in stream or river flow, transport downstream and dispersion within the reservoirs of the hydrologic cycle occurs and gains the potential to affect both human and environmental health over a relatively wide area (Larson et al., 1997).
Pesticide concentrations exceeding published water quality standards have been detected in the Palouse River at a point which provides integrated, basin-scale information about this dryland agriculture region (Roberts and Wagner, 1996). For example, triallate (trade name Far-Go), the pesticide with the largest active ingredient application rate in the region (Roberts and Wagner, 1996), was detected in the Palouse River by U.S. Geological survey scientists at concentrations that seasonally exceeded the freshwater-chronic criteria for the protection of aquatic life of 0.24 µg/L (Wagner et al., 1996a). The Palouse River drains a semi-arid portion of the Columbia Plateau which is characterized by dryland wheat and pea agriculture and soil formed in loess parent material. The Palouse River is the main outflow pathway for surficial water in the Palouse Drainage Basin, which measures approximately 2,500 square miles (Greene et al., 1994) and empties into the Snake River, which is widely used for recreational purposes and drains into the Pacific Ocean.
There are two distinct trends observable in the basin-scale triallate hydrograph presented in Figure 1: 1) the highest concentrations and mass discharges (triallate concentration x streamflow or stream discharge) are associated with some high streamflow events, and 2) concentrations during the March-June 1993 and January-May 1994 time periods, aside from the peak concentrations (occurring in May 1993 and Jan. 1994), appear to be relatively unaffected by the magnitude of stream discharge. The first observation may be explained by direct runoff. High turbidity during periods of high runoff, resulting in part from the fine textured and easily erodible soil of this region, may play a role in facilitating the transport of this moderately hydrophobic compound. However, because the period of direct runoff in this region is relatively short and sporadic, the second observation suggests that an alternate mechanism must contribute to pesticide transport in the hydrologic system. It should also be noted that the total mass represented by the "off-peak concentration" or background portion of the hydrograph for spring 1993 is substantive in comparison to the mass associated with the peak concentration occurring in May, 1993.
The basin-scale integrated data (Figure 1) provide insufficient evidence upon which to draw conclusions about pesticide transport pathways into surface water. In short, there is a need for a field-scale understanding of the transport mechanisms in order to develop effective solutions which will reduce aquatic concentrations. In addition, management practices cannot be determined to solve the problem until the route(s) of transfer are identified.
The alternate mechanisms which could explain the second observation from the hydrograph include: subsurface transport and/or atmospheric transport. Loess soils are characteristically fine-textured with a high moisture retention, a quality which traditionally has been assumed to prohibit subsurface pesticide migration due to relatively low permeability. However, the soils in this region are also highly structured, containing numerous root, worm and other macropores (Mallawatantri et al., 1996). The soils become extremely wet, near saturation, from late fall until early summer (e.g. Bacon, 1997), potentially allowing these macropores to become active preferential flow paths. Field observations of conservative compounds transport suggests preferential transport in both the vadose (Mallawatantri, 1990) and saturated zones (O'Brien et al., 1996; Kafka, 1995) occurs. Soils in toe-slope positions are frequently tile-drained, which can facilitate rapid transport of chemicals in the shallow subsurface environment. The culmination of these facts suggests the hypothesis that triallate is transported to surface water via shallow subsurface transport (including colloid-facilitated transport) to tile-drain systems. Transport by this route may be particularly important during periods of low surface runoff.
The goal of the proposed research is to determine the importance of local-scale (field-scale) subsurface transport as a pathway for pesticide migration to surface water in the Palouse region, a dryland agriculture area. The approach will be to quantify total pesticide discharge by direct surface run off and by subsurface transport for a target pesticide, triallate, at the field scale. A field to which triallate will be applied at spring planting will be used for the study. By determining the change in triallate mass discharge in the stream adjacent to and receiving water from the field, we will be able achieve the goal. Triallate has been selected as the target analyte: because it is a moderately volatile and hydrophobic organic compound, properties common to other pesticides used for agricultural purposes; because it has a high application rate in the area; and, because it has been identified at relatively high concentrations in the basin-scale discharge.
The specific objectives of the study are:
If additional mechanisms are key in controlling triallate transport (e.g. atmospheric transport), they will be identified in the project as a consequence of the study design.

Who Has The Remote? Seeks True Meaning in Valentines Day(February 14, 2013)
New York, NY (PRWEB) February 14, 2013
WhoHasTheRemote.com believes that Valentine's is a special day to honor the love that people share between friends, relatives, and romantic partners. To ensure that everyone feels included, Who Has The Remote? offers some tips on how to prevent the Charlie Brown plight, based on a recent write up on a dallasnews.com blog.
As the holiday decked with hearts, Valentine's is a day when everyone should feel happiness. For many people however, the holiday of love is a time of stress, because of the pressure to perform something lavish for those near and dear. This has often been attributed to the commercialization of Valentines, which can feel especially burdensome in the midst of a sluggish economy.
At schools throughout the country, the Charlie Brown dilemma is solved by having each boy and girl exchange cards with every classmate. The cards do not have to be fancy; they just need to be presented as tokens of the Valentines spirit.
In the adult world, the pressures attached to Valentines are more complex. While money is the primary culprit, a lot of pressure is also placed on ones imagination when it comes to cards, chocolates, and roses. The sense of obligation is especially hard felt amongst teenage boys and young men, who typically go overboard to woo their romantic interests. But as most married couples know, love is not measured in money, gifts or extravagant dates; instead, love is measured in fidelity, loyalty, and commitment.
When it comes to family time, the holiday of hearts can be educational, especially while catching Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown on dish packages during the week. Watching movies with kids is a perfect way to impart wisdom onto the little ones. One of the most important things that boys and girls can learn about in life is the value of love.
WhoHasTheRemote.com hopes that everyone has a happy Valentine's Day, and encourages people to measure their love in loyalty and commitment not gift sizes or dollar amounts.
About Who Has The Remote?:
WhoHasTheRemote.com offers creative tips and guidance on seasonal activities that involve the family from games and gifts to movies and meals.

55-acre rezoning proposal to be presented
The May 14 annual town meeting will feature a request to rezone 55.5 acres of rural residential land off Route 12 North to light industrial. Six owners of the property - Joe Amorello, Mark and Margaret Gargulinski (brother and mother to Desmarais), Terry Heinold, and Richard and Dorothy Mason - have been working with coordinator Ann Gargulinski Desmarais for four years to make this a reality.
The property abuts the present industrial park.
In April the planning board voted to support the proposed rezoning with three conditions: 1. The owners must establish a 50-foot buffer zone along the easterly ridge to separate the light industrial from the rural residential and farming zone. 2. They must grant easements to Wachusett Greenways to pass along the existing rail bed and continue on through the existing light industrial zone connected with Chocksett Road. 3. The Amorello family gifts the property abutting the Sterling Cemetery to the Town of Sterling. The group's attorney, Patricia Gates, has been working with Town Counsel Stanley Weinberg, on getting all three stipulations finalized before town meeting.
Desmarais said the owners want as much as everyone else to "preserve the look of Sterling. That's what we all want. But the property will be developed; we have rights to develop it."
Initially other uses for the property were suggested, including 40B (affordable) housing, 40R mixed-use village, and light industrial. The owners, with the input from the board of selectmen, agreed the light industrial was the best use.
They believe the location is ideal for future industrial growth. At this point, 12 percent of Sterling land is designated as light industrial. "The best tax models suggest 30 percent," reads the group's presentation.
The location would help to direct traffic away from the center of town and residential areas, and it has a natural barrier of wetlands along Route 12, they said.
They've also noted the tax benefit to the town provided by industrial users, as opposed to the tax impact of residential subdivisions that require school and municipal services. The industrial area would also provide job opportunities, the proponents said, and the gradual phasing of development would allow for each section to be built and sold before continuing onto the next one.
The owners have offered the Open Space Committee and Wachusett Greenways the opportunity to be involved in the planning, to preserve the existing rail bed and connect it to the Rail Trial.
In the town meeting warrant, the finance committee states the rezoning "will have a positive impact on the town's finances," but will not offer a recommendation until town meeting. Wachusett Greenways has accepted the easement the owners have offered.
Selectmen are supporting the rezone, noting that it will increase the tax base. The Sterling Town Bylaws and permitting process already have the controls in place to make sure that the development is done to the town's specifications, they've said.
A site walk of the property will be held Saturday, May 12, at 1 p.m. Meet at Terry Heinold's Ground Control facility, 5 Chocksett Road, which is the first driveway on Chocksett Road coming from Route 12, the corner lot.
Additional walks can be scheduled by contacting Ann Gargulinski Desmarais at email@example.com or (978) 464-5208.

Indicator poll: Democratic enthusiasm way down
We've talked about it in the past. Get Out The Vote (GOTV) efforts are best when voter enthusiasm is high. In a per dollar spent ratio, GOTV efforts are most efficient when voters are enthusiastic.
Democrats may have a problem this year according to Gallup:
In fact, Democratic voters are less enthusiastic than they were in 2004. GOP voters, on the other hand, are at the same level as 2004 and much more enthusiastic than in 2008.
That's not to say overall voter enthusiasm is anything to brag about.
The point of the above chart is that voters recognize that the choices they face are not at all that pleasing. Obviously as in past races, voter enthusiasm will pick up in the next three months. But it seems clear that the politics of this election are not at all compelling to many voters at this point. The reasons are most likely varied. However, what is clear is the GOP base is much more motivated at this point, and by a wide margin, than the Democrat base.
No matter how you slice it or attempt to spin it, that's not good news for Obama.

[Conservative voters are] much more enthusiastic than in 2008.
I guess that is one metric where we can say…
Obama made it better.
From a foreign perspective, the wobbly-kneed adoration of Obama is kind of missing this time around. The "lefty" sites I sometimes visit, which used to expound copiously about W and then got all wet for Obama for weeks on end seem oddly… quiet… about American politics just now. Since I liquidated my facebook "presence" I don't know if the acquaintances who four years ago gave their profiles shiny Obama makeovers have done it again or not… but I am suspecting they are studiously avoiding being seen to be so libertine this time. Shit, even the Swedish press has called Romney "too Swedish" for American voters (maybe someone should give Erp a new opinion to try out, he is all Europeony after all). Seems to me that a lot of people are kind of done with Obama's hype and secretly hope Romney will win.
Imagine the commotion if Romney announced an Office On Anglo-Saxon Advancement & Excellence…
People are getting tired of the Obamic Decline…and overt racism.
Heh heh, I wonder if Erb will take this call-to-service from his messiah seriously…
And that's why we're pushing all colleges and universities to cut their costs. Because we can't keep asking taxpayers to subsidize skyrocketing tuition.
How about it Scotty, going to volunteer a pay-cut and reduced European junkets to improve the excellence of your colored brethren?
That's how we make America great.
Yeah, no… That's how we further inflate the education bubble, which no administration has done more to inflate.
This is Obama's classic Alinsky head-fake contradiction. MORE government programs and $$$, while talking about lowering tuition that he's just promised to subsidize more highly.
It would be laughable if it were not so destructive.
All Obama ever had going for him was race.
Well, he was young, and cool, and mysterious. Especially mysterious…
At least if you weren't paying attention. If you were, he was a Collectivist thug in an expensive suit(tm).
By "cool and mysterious" you mean "empty", right? I never saw the cool thing, maybe I just didn't want to believe enough.
Some who know him say he's downright cold.
You left out 'arrogant, narcissistic collectivist… otherwise you are spot on.
It doesn't really matter; I suspect this election with be determined by enthusiastic dead voters.
But aren't Republicans usually more enthusiastic about elections the Democrats? Republicans have always reminded me of the paradigm of the proverbial members of the Communist Party: Swearing allegiance to the Party, no matter what.
Tad, you're a perfect Democrat.
I don't mean that as a compliment.

1 Beer to Christmas
New Holland's Dragons Milk. Another wonderful oak aged beer. Lucky me. It was quite enjoyable, even if served in the wrong glasses.
Thanks to Zoë for this fun trip of advent calendar beers. Bean has already suggested the 12 days of grilling for next Christmas. Anyway, after such a malty adventure, I think I am looking forward to some really hop heavy beers after the first of the year...or on second thought, maybe I will ride this high ABV oak aged train a little longer. They really have been good.
I just learned tonight that Boston's is going to have Old Curmudgeon on tap this Friday. It will be the only one in Ohio. After enjoying two this week, OC on draft is something I can't afford to miss.
As nightfall looms, I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and happiness where ever you are.

Any help will be appreciated.
An immigration-birth process with arrival rate λ and birth rate β may be described by the probability statement
P(X(t +δt) = x + 1| X(t) = x)=(λ +βx)δt + 0(δt)
Suppose that at time 0 the size of a population growing according to the above rule is 4. An event is said to have occurred when the population size increases by one (and it is immaterial whether this increase is due to a random arrival or to a birth).
Write down an expression for the expected waiting time until the nth event (that is until the population size reaches n + 4).
Since X(0) = 4,
should the birthrate be β or 4β? I am confused here.
I am leaning towards 4β, so am I correct that the expected waiting time should be:
1/(λ + 4β) + 1/(λ + 8β) + 1/(λ + 12β) + ... + 1/(λ + 4nβ)
If the above is correct, for the p.g.f. of a simple birth process with X(0) = 2 and birthrate β, should it be:
Π(s, t) = [(se^(-βt))/(1-s(1-e^(-βt)))]^2
Π(s, t) = [(se^(-2βt))/(1-s(1-e^(-2βt)))]^2
Using the former (which I think is correct), is the following workings to find the probabilities at X(t) = 3 correct?
Π(3, t) = [(3e^(-βt))/(1-3(1-e^(-βt)))]^2
= (9e^(-2βt))/(-2+3e^(-βt))^2
= (9e^(-2βt))/(4-12e^(-βt)+9e^(-2βt))

Colin Coben of Delisle (right) beat Ashley Ziegeman of Prince Albert in the 91st annual Northern Men's Amateur Championship final on Monday in a clash of former champions.
In a dual of former champions on Monday at Cooke Municipal Golf Course, experience ultimately won out.
Colin Coben of Delisle beat Ashley Ziegeman of Prince Albert in the 91st annual Northern Men's Amateur Championship with a long putt on the 17th hole to clinch the match play final two and one.
Coben said it wasn't easy.
"It was quite a roller coaster," Coben said about the match, which had three distinct momentum swings.
Coben was up three after five holes, only to have Ziegeman roar back and win through holes 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 to go two up.
Coben then won 13, 14, 15 and 16, meaning Ziegeman had to win 17 and 18 to extend the match.
With a long putt on 17 after chipping out of a bunker, Coben effectively slammed the door on the comeback.
"I didn't play real great but I didn't get into a lot of trouble," Coben said of the final. "I made a few bogies; I short-sighted myself a couple of times and didn't get up and down and that cost me. But I thought my driver was better this afternoon than it was this morning and my putting was good."
Coben, 57, beat Ray Field, Jaret Nelson and the man who shot the low round of 68 on Friday, Danny Klughart, to advance.
For Ziegeman, who said he drove the ball well during the weekend, it will be a handful of shots that haunt him.
"I hit a couple of loose shots that more or less cost me the tournament," he says. "Fourteen and 15, I'm going to have a tough time sleeping tonight thinking about those holes but I did a lot of good things."
A good start in the final wasn't one of them, he said.
"My goal was obviously to be in the final when I started this weekend," he said. "When I got in the final I was a little jumpy off the start and the next thing I knew I was three down."
It was a familiar position for the local golfer, who spotted four to Dave Stewart in a match on Saturday before roaring back. Even though Ziegeman eventually surged ahead, those early holes cost him.
"Colin's a legend," Ziegeman said. "He's not going to give you much and he's going to make a lot of putts."
The entertaining match was exactly what Cooke head pro Darcy Myers expected.
"Colin came through strong," Myers said. "He's a five-time champion and Ashley's won before so we knew it was going to be a good match and they showed us what it's all about."
Ziegeman, who shot 71 on Friday in the qualifying round, beat Dean Prosky in his first match, Stewart in his second and Justin Paradis in the semifinal to book his spot in the final.
Coben's win was his fifth in eight appearances in the final. To put his achievement into context, there has only been one other person — Luke Sheard of Saskatoon — who has won even two since 1990.
Coben, who was named last week to the Saskatchewan Golf Hall Of Fame, had previously won the tournament in 2001, 2005, 2007 and 2011.
Ziegeman won in 2003.
Later this month Coben will play in the Canadian Men's Senior Championship in Quebec and days later in the Canadian Mid-Amateur Championship in Vancouver.
Myers said that 91 years in, the tournament remains a hit.
"The tournament attracts players from all over," he says. "We have a really strong field and the golf course is in just fantastic condition. Everybody loves this weekend. It's a lot of fun, there's a lot of good golf and it's got a lot of history."

i need to know how to integrate this:
(integrate sign with 2 at top and -2 at bottom) 6x^2+1 dx
i know how to start it:
=[6x^3/3+x] (2 at top of bracket, -2 at bottom)
but its after this im stuck. im not sure how to simplify 6x^3/3?
after this part i cant do i should be able to complete it but im not sure how to simplify it.
could somone please help me on this part?!?

Tweaking the bottom of the roster, the Jets re-signed veteran WR Jason Hill and waived rookie S Antonio Allen, who will be added to the practice squad if he clears waivers. Hill, originally signed to replaced the injured Santonio Holmes, was released Oct. 27 after three games with the team. He caught two passes for 15 yards, including a touchdown. He gives the Jets a fifth wide receiver.

This might have something to do with remainder theorem ! Though I am not sure !
Under the scheme of rural development the OCP purchased t number of helicopters and these were allocated equally among 7 districts of Michigan and thus 4 helicopters remained unallocated. Similarly every district allocated these helicopters equally to 10 blocks in each district and still 3 helicopters remained unallocated in every district. Further every block assigned these helicopters equally to every 16 villages in each block and thus 2 helicopters per block remained unallocated. According to the scheme every village must receive atleast 1 helicopter.
1) Is it possible to determine the number of helicopters allocated to each block ? Please explain why and how.
2) If ,instead, OCP purchased k helicopters to provide exactly 1 helicopter to each village as mentioned in the scheme, but later on it sent one tractor to each village directly without the involvement any block or district, then the number of helicopters OCP has saved more in comparison to the previous scheme ? Please give explanation.
Plugging in backwards, we have:
Thus, the number of helicopters allocated to each block is .
Question 2 makes no sense. It does not seem to be asking anything. I think it meant, how many helicopters were unallocated by the districts, blocks, and villages. The answer to that is 161 (165-4 = 161).
A "click-on" is worth a 1000 words:
Rural-development - My Math Forum
I'm "Denis" at that site.
And I hope we can find the answer for the second question now.

"Perched on the edge of Martletwy village and surrounded by rolling fields on three sides, the two-bedroom Tin Bungalow is perfect for an away-from-it-all weekend. When you're not curled up in the glass sun room lapping up those views, take a walk to the Daugleddau Estuary or to Cresselly Arms at Cresswell Quay, an old fashioned country pub serving real ale, both just two miles away. There's even a shed for storing bikes." The Observer, who selected this property in their '20 Perfect (international) Getaways for Valentines' article.
The Guardian named this cottage in the top 5 coolest cottages in Pembrokeshire! See a 30 second Flipagram of a guest's winter weekend here!
This 1920s tin Pembrokeshire cottage has been refurbished and kitted out with a fantastic vintage interior and now makes a unique destination in one of the most beautiful areas of Wales. It is warm, (fully insulated), characterful, and a credit to the Welsh tin heritage. These little tin houses popped up in all the prettiest parts of Wales in the early twenteith century as farmers started to sell their prettiest plots and fields to people that wanted to make charming and affordable weekend retreats. There is a touch of the 'Bohemian' to the styling, which is appropriate enough as bungalows started life as the weekend homes of artistic types before their reputation was ruined by some horrors from the 1960s. Fear not, there is nothing grannified here. The Tin Bungalow has a wonderful homely vintage style that feels like a great place to be. Extra photos here or click here for an aerial photo or an independent guest review. This (very) amateur video will give you an idea of the layout.
In detail:
Access: The property is entered up two steps and has two levels within (shallow step up to kitchen/dining area).
Being newly renovated the property is insulated to a high level and is heated by a modern central heating system with radiators in every room (except sun room). There is also a traditional enamelled stove in the sitting room.
Most of the house enjoys recycled solid oak floors.
Sitting Room: With sofa, armchair and vintage enamelled stove (first hod of coal supplied). Flatscreen 19" digital TV and DVD and CD player.
Sun Room: A simple glass sun room to the front with Philippe Starck chairs from which to enjoy far-reaching Westerly views.
Kitchen: A simple contemporary kitchen with great views (6 windows!). Dishwasher, regular size electric oven, microwave, fridge with small freezer compartment, toaster. Note there is no washing machine.
Bathroom : A smallish room but with small bath and shower and nice fittings.
Master Bedroom: A good-sized room with great views, more vintage furnishings and some pop-art by owner Tim Jackson. Entered off the main corridor via a small vestibule.
Twin Bedroom: Two single beds (adult size), window overlooking open fields. Door through to lounge and another to rear corridor.
GARDEN: Enclosed large garden suitable for dogs with open views over rolling hills Patio set/ picnic bench and Sun lounger.
Off-road parking for 2 average-sized cars.

Nokia has been especially successful with their entry-level range of Windows Phones, particularly the Lumia 520, which on the back of its dirt-cheap price, quickly propelled itself to be the best-selling Windows Phone.
In nearly every way, the Lumia 525 is the same as the Lumia 520, however since the 520 launched at the start of 2013 the entry-level smartphone market has changed; new hardware has been unveiled specifically for budget devices, and older parts have become cheaper. The competition is also ferocious, specifically Motorola's aggressively-priced Moto G comes to mind.
How does the Lumia 525 fit into the equation in 2014?
