SolidusGold's business plan is to add shareholder value by acquiring, exploring, and developing high quality gold assets in North America. Our first acquisition is the Northumberland property from Newmont for US$20M, located in central Nevada – one of the safest mining jurisdictions in the world. The Northumberland property contains a historic resource in excess of 3M oz of gold * and the company plans to complete its own 43-101 compliant resource by mid-2017. We are confident that further confirmation and exploration drilling will result in an expansion of the mineralized envelope.
Our highly focused and experienced team plans to undertake a systematic review to expand on both the oxide and sulfide potential of the Northumberland gold project, as well as continue to evaluate other attractive acquisition opportunities within the objective of a new North American mid-tier gold developer.
* This resource is an historical estimate and a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. As a result the historical estimate is not being treated as a current mineral resource. See the company's Sept. 15, 2016 news release for important information regarding the historical estimate and the forward-looking information on this webpage. Rick Van Nieuwenhuyse, Chairman and Interim CEO of the company, is a Qualified Person for the purposes of NI 43-101 and approved, but has not verified, the technical information on this webpage.Read More

United States District Court, E.D. Pennsylvania
October 9, 2014
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ex rel. BRUCE BOISE, et al.v.CEPHALON, INC., et al.
THOMAS N. O'NEILL, Jr., District Judge.
Plaintiffs Bruce Boise, Keith Dufour and Andrew Augustine bring this action against defendants Cephalon, Inc. and John Does #1-100 to recover damages and civil penalties on behalf of the United States as qui tam relators pursuant to the False Claims act, 31 U.S.C., §§ 3729 et. seq. (FCA) and analogous state laws. This matter comes before me on Cephalon's motion to dismiss plaintiffs' Fentora claims in their second amended complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(1) (Dkt. No. 78) and plaintiffs' response (Dkt. No. 89). Cephalon contends that § 373(0)(5) of the FCA, known as the "first-tofile" rule, bars (1) the addition of the claims of relators Augustine and Dufour to plaintiffs' second amended complaint with regard to the medications Fentora and Nuvigil; and (2) all of plaintiffs' claims with regard to the medication Provigil. For the reasons that follow, I will partially deny and partially stay Cephalon's motion.
In this action, plaintiffs allege that defendants violated the FCA by engaging in the offlabel marketing of various medications, providing kickbacks to physicians prescribing those medications and causing the submission of false claims and false statements to various state and federal programs, amongst other allegations. See generally Dkt. No. 69. On January 3, 2008, Boise filed the original complaint in this action alleging Cephalon's off-label promotion of the medication Fentora. See Dkt. No. 1 at ¶¶ 2, 3. On June 30, 2009, "Doe" commenced a separate action, United States ex rel. Doe v. Cephalon, Inc., No. 09-2926 (E.D. Pa.), by filing a complaint alleging Cephalon's off-label promotion of the medications Fentora and Provigil. See Dkt. 78, Ex. A. On January 14, 2010, in this action, Boise filed his first amended complaint alleging the off-label promotion of Provigil for the first time. See Dkt. No. 14 at ¶¶ 41-64. On Sept. 19, 2013, I dismissed the Doe action without prejudice upon Doe's motion to voluntarily dismiss the complaint. See No. 09-2926, Dkt. No. 44. On February 27, 2014, Boies filed an unopposed motion for leave to file a second amended complaint. See Dkt. No. 66. On February 28, 2014, I granted that motion. See Dkt. No. 67. On March 4, 2014, Boise filed a second amended complaint supplementing his allegations and adding relators Augustine and Dufour. See Dkt. No. 69.
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(1) authorizes dismissal of a complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. A motion under Rule 12(b)(1) may be treated as either a facial attack on the complaint or a factual challenge to the Court's subject matter jurisdiction. Gould Elecs., Inc. v. United States , 220 F.3d 169, 176 (3d Cir. 2000). A court reviewing a facial attack may consider only the allegations of the complaint and any documents referenced therein or attached thereto in the light most favorable to the plaintiff. Id . In reviewing a factual attack, a court may consider evidence outside the pleadings. Id.
A plaintiff bears the burden of persuasion when subject matter jurisdiction is challenged, but the legal standard for surviving a Rule 12(b)(1) motion is a low one. Kehr Packages v. Fidelcor, Inc. , 926 F.2d 1406, 1409 (3d Cir. 1991). "A claim may be dismissed under Rule 12(b)(1) only if it clearly appears to be immaterial and made solely for the purpose of obtaining jurisdiction' or is wholly insubstantial and frivolous.'" Gould , 220 F.3d at 178. Nevertheless, "dismissal for lack of jurisdiction is not appropriate merely because the legal theory alleged is probably false, but only because the right claimed is so insubstantial, implausible, foreclosed by prior decisions of this Court, or otherwise completely devoid of merit as not to involve a federal controversy." Kulick v. Pocono Downs Racing Ass'n , 816 F.2d 895, 899 (3d Cir. 1987), quoting Oneida Indian Nation v. Cnty. of Oneida , 414 U.S. 661, 666 (1974).
I. Augustine and Dufour's Claims
The FCA's first-to-file rule provides that: "[w]hen a person brings an action under this subsection, no person other than the Government may intervene or bring a related action based on the facts underlying the pending action." 31 U.S.C. § 373(0)(5). In construing the first-to-file rule, I am "mindful of the need to preserve a balance between the amendment's two competing goals" of providing "adequate incentives for whistle-blowing insiders" and the "discouragement of opportunistic plaintiffs" in qui tam actions. U.S. ex rel. LaCorte v. SmithKline Beecham Clinical Labs., Inc. , 149 F.3d 227, 234 (3d Cir. 1998).
Cephalon contends that the first-to-file rule not only applies when a party formally intervenes pursuant to Rule 24 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or brings a separate related action but rather "equally applies when additional relators join an existing case." Dkt. No. 78 at 5. Thus, Cephalon argues that Augustine and Dufour's allegations regarding Fentora and Nuvigil are "based on the facts underlying" other pending actions and are barred by the first-to-file rule. In response, plaintiffs contend that as a threshold matter the first-to-file rule does not apply where a relator is joined to an existing action by amended complaint. See Dkt. No. 89 at 5, 12-14. Plaintiffs further contend that even if the first-to-file rule applies in their case, Augustine and Dufour's claims are not "based on facts underlying" pending actions and thus are not barred by the first-to-file rule.
In U.S. ex rel. Precision Co. v. Koch Indus., Inc, the Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit held that the addition of new relators by an amended complaint did not trigger the application of the first-to-file rule. 31 F.3d 1015, 1018 (10th Cir. 1994). The Tenth Circuit grounded its holding on its understanding that the meaning of "intervene" in § 3730(b)(5) carries the "plain legal meaning" of intervention under Rule 24. Id . at 1017. The Tenth Circuit reasoned that Congress intended only to ban the addition of relators who were "strangers" to the plaintiff, since a Rule 24 "intervenor need not have a relation to the original plaintiff' to intervene in an action. Id.
Some district courts have adopted Precision's textual analysis of § 3730(b)(5) and limited the first-to-file bar's applicability only to a later separate action or intervention under Rule 24. See United States v. Educ. Mgmt. Corp. , 871 F.Supp.2d 433, 459 (W.D. Pa. 2012) (declining to dismiss amendment to add relator since "[t]he plain text of § 3730(b)(5) does not apply to the unique procedural status of this case because [the new relator] is not intervening' or bringing a related action"); U.S. ex rel. Howard v. Lockheed Martin Corp., No. 99-285, 2011 WL 4348104, at *4 (S.D. Ohio Sept. 16, 2011) (following Precision's interpretation).
In contrast, district courts elsewhere have not uniformly followed Precision's analysis. Some courts have simply applied the § 3730(b)(5) bar to consolidated or amended complaints without providing any analysis of the provision's text. See U.S. ex rel. Nowak v. Medtronic, Inc. , 806 F.Supp.2d 310, 334 (D. Mass. 2011) (applying the first-to-file bar to relators joined through a consolidated complaint); Palladino ex rel. U.S. v. VNA of S. N.J., Inc. , 68 F.Supp.2d 455, 477 (D.N.J. 1999) (applying the first-to-file bar to a relator added by amended complaint). But see Howard, 2011 WL 4348104, at *4 (following Precision and noting "the Nowak court provided no analysis to explain whether [consolidated] claims were barred as being brought by intervenors or as a related action, and how it reached that conclusion").
Other courts have more directly disputed Precision's interpretation of § 3730(b)(5). In U.S. ex rel. Fry v. Guidant Corp., the Court applied the first-to-file rule to bar the addition of a second relator to plaintiff's proposed second amended complaint. No, 03-0842, 2006 WL 1102397 (M.D. Tenn. Apr. 25, 2006). The Court concluded that the Tenth Circuit erred in Precision because it carved out an "exception" to the first-to-file rule, reasoning that in contrast the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and the Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit had held that the first-to-file rule was exception-free. See id. at *5-6, citing U.S. ex rel. Lujan v. Hughes Aircraft Co. , 243 F.3d 1181, 1187 (9th Cir. 2001) and U.S. ex rel. LaCorte v. Wagner , 185 F.3d 188, 191 (4th Cir. 1999); see also U.S. ex rel. Manion v. St. Luke's Reg'l Med. Ctr., Ltd., No. 06-498, 2008 WL 906022, at *7 (D. Idaho Mar. 31, 2008) (applying first-to-file bar to addition of relator by amended complaint because it would "require a departure from Ninth Circuit law" under Lujan).
The Court in Fry also relied upon a policy rationale in rejecting Precision's holding. The Court reasoned that allowing the addition of relators by amended complaint would undermine the first-to-file rule's goal of preventing parasitic claims and duplicative claims that do not help expose fraud or return funds to the federal fisc. See Fry, 2006 WL 1102397, at *6.
But other district courts have concluded upon further inquiry that such policy fears are unfounded. For example, in Howard the Court concluded that "policy considerations favor" the addition of relators by amended complaint, since that mechanism "does not require the duplicative expenditure of time and resources that a separate action [in another court] would have entailed." 2011 WL 4348104, at *4. Further, the Court reasoned that the addition of relators by amended complaint does not create parasitic claims since relators have "reached a private agreement as to the distribution of any recovery." Id . Finally, the "risk for multiple or inconsistent judgments" that exists in separate actions does not exist where relators are added by amended complaint in a single action. Id.
Like in Howard, here "no party was able to identify binding authority on all fours with the present case." Id . In Education Management, however, the Court reasoned that in SmithKline, the Third Circuit "noted-without disapproval-that in one of the underlying qui tam cases, a relator (Grossenbacher) was later joined by' another relator (Robinson)." 871 F.Supp.2d at 460, citing SmithKline , 149 F.3d at 230. The Court therefore declined to apply the first-to-file bar to a new relator joined by amended complaint. Id.
The plain meaning of § 3730(b)(5), the policy considerations underlying that provision and Third Circuit case law persuade me to conclude that the first-to-file rule does not apply to the voluntary addition of relators by amended complaint in a pending action where relators have entered into a private agreement regarding the division of potential proceeds from the action. I find persuasive the Tenth Circuit's statutory analysis in Precision. First, the meaning of "intervene" in § 3730(b)(5) is unambiguous. I have no reason to doubt that Congress anticipated that the plain meaning of "intervene, " when used in the context of a procedural bar to filing FCA actions, would be understood by the courts consistent with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. See Precision, 31 F.3d at 1017 (examining legislative history of § 3730(b)(5)). Second, it is unambiguous that a relator does not bring a later and separate "related action" under § 3730(13)(5) when he or she joins an existing action through an amended complaint. Rather, "all interested parties can expect to resolve that claim in a single lawsuit" just as intended under § 3730(b)(5). Grynberg v. Koch Gateway Pipeline Co. , 390 F.3d 1276, 1279 (10th Cir. 2004).
Contrary to the interpretation of the district courts in Fry and Manion, I find that the Ninth and Fourth Circuits' holdings in Lujan and Wagner do not conflict with the Tenth Circuit's holding in Precision. In Wagner, the Fourth Circuit made the "straight forward" application of § 3730(b)(5) to bar strangers in a separate action from intervening under Rule 24 in an attempt to share in the settlement proceeds of the underlying action. Wagner , 185 F.3d at 190-91. The district court opinion under review in Wagner makes clear that only Rule 24 intervention and not the addition of new relators by amended complaint was at issue in that case. See U.S. ex rel. Lacorte v. Roche Biomedical Labs., Inc., 182 F.R.D. 480, 484 (M.D. N.C. 1998). Similarly, Lujan involved the straightforward application of the first-to-file bar to a separate action brought while an earlier FCA action was still pending. Far from the circumstances in this case, where an earlier plaintiff has sought to add additional relators by amended complaint, Lujan arose from an original plaintiff's motion to dismiss a later-filed and separate action pursuant to the first-to-file rule. See Lujan , 243 F.3d at 1186. On those facts the Ninth Circuit concluded that § 3730(b)(5) "unambiguously establishes a first-to-file bar" and rejected the later-filing relator's request for various unrelated exceptions. Lujan , 243 F.3d at 1187.
Policy considerations likewise support reading § 3730(b)(5) to allow the addition of relators by amended complaint. Section 3730(b)(5) was enacted partially to address the concern that as a matter of "fairness claimants alleging the same material facts as prior relators should not share in a qui tam award, because their allegations are unlikely to increase the total recovery." SmithKline , 149 F.3d at 234 (3d Cir. 1998). The same fairness concerns are not present where, as here, plaintiffs have consented to join together and share any proceeds of their suit due to the real or perceived advantage the additional relators bring to the complaint. Thus, such claims are not "parasitic." See Howard, 2011 WL 4348104, at *4. Additionally, § 3730(b)(5) addresses the concern that "duplicative claims do not help reduce fraud or return funds to the federal fisc " because they do not put the government on notice of new fraud. SmithKline , 149 F.3d at 234. While separately filed duplicative actions might not help achieve those goals, a complaint that is potentially strengthened by the addition of new relators with more detailed information might. Indeed, even where the Government declines to intervene in an action initially, the Court can always "permit the Government to intervene at a later date upon a showing of good cause." 31 U.S.C § 3730(c)(3). At the least, allowing the second amended complaint to proceed in this case would not create any of the clear problems of efficiency and conflicting judgments like later, separately filed and related actions. See Howard, 2011 WL 4348104, at *4. Lastly, I am persuaded that dismissal is not warranted on the basis of the first-to-file bar because the Court of Appeals has noted without disapproval the joining of an additional relator to an existing FCA action. See SmithKline , 149 F.3d at 230.
For the foregoing reasons, I will deny defendant's motion to dismiss Augustine and Dufour's claims from plaintiffs' second amended complaint.
II. Plaintiffs' Provigil Claims
Cephalon's motion to dismiss also contends that plaintiffs' Provigil allegations are barred by the first-to-file rule because those claims were first filed in plaintiffs' first amended complaint when the Doe action, which also alleged that Cephalon violated the FCA with regard to Provigil, was still pending. See Dkt. No. 78 at 6-9. Plaintiffs respond by arguing that the timing of the filing of their second amended complaint controls the first-to-file inquiry. Thus, plaintiffs assert that the Doe action was not pending when their Provigil claims were filed because I dismissed the Doe action without prejudice on September 19, 2013 and plaintiffs filed their second amended complaint in this action on February 4, 2014. Plaintiffs contend that the Doe action cannot be considered a "pending action" under 3730(b)(5) after its dismissal and therefore their Provigil claims are not barred.
The critical underlying issue is the meaning of "pending" under § 3730(b)(5). By its terms, the first-to-file rule applies where there is an underlying "pending action, " 31 U.S.C. § 3730(b)(5). Thus, some Courts of Appeals have held that a later-filed action may continue or be refiled after an earlier-filed related action is dismissed. See U.S. ex rel. Chovanec v. Apria Healthcare Grp. Inc. , 606 F.3d 361, 365 (7th Cir. 2010); In re Natural Gas Royalties Qui Tam Litig. , 566 F.3d 956, 964 (10th Cir. 2009); U.S. ex rel. Carter v. Halliburton Co. , 710 F.3d 171, 183 (4th Cir. 2013), cert. granted, 134 S.Ct. 2899 (2014).
But other Courts of Appeals have read the phrase "pending action" as a shorthand reference for the earlier action rather than a temporal limitation on § 3730(b)(5)'s application. See U.S., ex rel. Shea v. Cellco P'ship , 748 F.3d 338, 343 (D.C. Cir. 2014) (finding that "[t]he simplest reading of "pending" is the referential one; it serves to identify which action bars the other"); U.S. ex rel. Duxbury v. Ortho Biotech Products, L.P. , 579 F.3d 13, 32 (1st Cir. 2009) (applying first-to-file bar where earlier-filed action was dismissed before filing of later related action). The issue then is not merely the timing of the filing of the later action, but whether an earlier filed action that is dismissed bars all later related actions under § 3730(b)(5).
On July 1, 2014 the Supreme Court granted certiorari in U.S. ex rel. Carter v. Halliburton Co ., on the question of whether § 3730(b)(5) bars later related actions once an earlier-filed action has been dismissed. 710 F.3d 171 (4th Cir. 2013), cert. granted, 134 S.Ct. 2899 (2014). Thus, I will stay consideration of Cephalon's motion to dismiss plaintiffs' Provigil claims pending the Supreme Court's resolution of this question.
For the reasons set forth above, I will deny Cephalon's motion to dismiss with regard to Augustine and Dufour's Fentora and Nuvigil claims and will stay consideration of Cephalon's motion to dismiss with regard to plaintiffs' Provigil claims.

1023 - 02/15 - Suspicious stowaways, possibly connected to ISIS - Italy
- Date: 13/02/2015
Bulletin 1023 (72 kB)
Bulletin 1023 - Chinese version (183 kB)
Bulletin 1023 - Simplified Chinese (121 kB)
Signum Services have recently dealt with a case of suspicious stowaways found on board a Ro-Ro ship sailing from Italy to Turkey.
The two suspects with no identification documents were found by the crew. The Captain contacted the coast guard in Greece who arranged for the stowaways to be taken ashore by launch to the Island of Limnos. During the investigation it became clear that they boarded the vessel in Italy, hiding under the chassis of a truck. Their intention was to travel onwards from Istanbul to Syria.
Concerns were raised that both of them were trying out a new route to get to Syria to avoid detection and join ISIS, or one of the other militant groups fighting in the region. The Greek authorities believe that as stowaways on ships they will avoid the need to have photographic national identification travel documents as used at airports and borders.
More worrying is that this could also be the return route after their training or fighting in Syria or Iraq and could pose a bigger threat to their returning country.
We have been informed that there have been a number of similar incidents involving ships from French and Italian Ports, Marseilles in particular.
This bulletin is intended to raise awareness and emphasise the importance of proper security procedures in order to prevent stowaways from gaining access to the ship.

very usefull
I've looked everywhere on this site and can't find a location to download "Solver". This spreadsheet obviously doesn't work without it. At least list a source for the accompanying program when you list one that requires another.
Good comment. Solver ships with MS Excel. Here's a link to help with instructions on how to activate it:

"1004 run time error" message how do I resolve this?
Make sure solver is active and that you are allowing macros to run in Excel (check your security settings)
Sorry to insist !! It is not useful. How can you calculate optimum diameter forgetting pipe length !!! Optimum diameter is different when you project has 10 feet than 1000 feet. Sorry.

GLENDORA, PLAINTIFF,v.ERIC W. PRESS, DEFENDANT.
Plaintiff commenced this action by filing a pro se complaint against defendant Press, a City Court Judge in the City of White Plains, New York, regarding plaintiff's dissatisfaction with court proceedings presided over by Judge Press in August 2007. See Dkt. No. 1. In its Order dated October 9, 2007, the Court found that:
With respect to Eric Press, the law in this Circuit clearly provides that "[j]udges enjoy absolute immunity from personal liability for 'acts committed within their judicial jurisdiction.' " Young v. Selsky, 41 F.3d 47, 51 (2d Cir. 1994) (emphasis added) (quoting Pierson v. Ray, 386 U.S. 547 (1967)). "The absolute immunity of a judge applies however erroneous the act may have been, and however injurious in its consequences it may have proved to the plaintiff." Young, 41 F.3d at 51 (internal quotations omitted).
Dkt. No. 3 at 2. Accordingly, the Court dismissed Judge Press as a party to this action. Id. at 3. In light of plaintiff's pro se status, and because it was unclear whether plaintiff was attempting to assert claims against other parties, the Court provided plaintiff the opportunity to submit an amended complaint. Id. After submitting her original complaint, plaintiff also submitted a motion seeking default judgment against defendant Press. Dkt. No. 2. By Order of Magistrate Judge Randolph F. Treece filed on October 10, 2007, plaintiff's motion for default judgment was stricken from the docket as having been prematurely filed because defendant Press had yet to be served with the summons and complaint. Dkt. No. 4. On October 31, 2007, plaintiff submitted a motion (1) objecting to the Order signed by Magistrate Judge Randolph F. Treece striking plaintiff's motion for default judgment (Dkt. No. 5 at 1-25); (2) objecting to the return of certain papers she submitted to the Clerk of the Court and seeking a refund of the filing fee (id. at 26-32) and (3) for reconsideration of this Court's Order dated October 9, 2007 (id. at 33-97). In addition to these requests, plaintiff included in her submission what appeared to be discovery requests, or notices to admit, addressed to Magistrate Judge Treece, the Clerk of the Court, and the undersigned. See Dkt. No. 5 at 3-11, 18-23, 25-29, 37-61, and 67-97. By Order of this Court filed on November 2, 2007, Magistrate Judge Treece's October 10, 2007 Order was affirmed and plaintiff's remaining motions were denied. Dkt. No. 7. On November 20, 2007, plaintiff filed a Notice of Appeal to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals from this Court's November 2, 2007 Order. Dkt. No. 11. By Order and Mandate of the Second Circuit issued on January 24, 2008, and filed in this Court on February 1, 2008, plaintiff's appeal was dismissed. Dkt. No. 14. In its Order and Mandate, the Second Circuit stated as follows:
THE COURT NOTING that having sent a letter on November 28, 2007 in 07-5259-mv, Glendora V. Press, that Glendora shall be required to petition the Court for leave to appeal prior to filing any future appeals,
THE COURT FURTHER NOTING that having failed to receive a motion for leave to appeal would result as a dismissal in this present matter,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the above captioned case is dismissed for failure to comply with this Court's order.
Dkt. No. 14.
Now that plaintiff's appeal has been dismissed, if plaintiff wishes to proceed with this action, she must file an amended complaint in accordance with the October 9, 2007 Order of this Court and this Order.
The amended complaint must be submitted, if at all, on or before March 17, 2008. Failure of plaintiff to submit an amended complaint by March 17, 2008 may result in dismissal of this action, with prejudice. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b).
In the event that plaintiff does submit an amended complaint, plaintiff is advised that the amended complaint must comply with the Local Rules of Practice of the Northern District of New York, including Rule 10.1(a) which requires that all papers submitted to the Court be "single sided and double-spaced." Rule 10.1(a) also states that "[d]ocuments that do not comply with [its] requirements may be rejected upon order of the Court."
WHEREFORE, it is hereby
ORDERED that plaintiff may file an amended complaint, if any, on or before March 17, 2008, and it is further
ORDERED that should plaintiff fail to comply with the terms of this Decision and Order, the Clerk return the file to this Court for further consideration, including whether this action should be dismissed, with prejudice, pursuant to Rule 41(b), and it is further
ORDERED, that upon full compliance by plaintiff with this Order as directed above, the file in this matter be returned to the Court for further review, and it is further
ORDERED that the Clerk serve a copy of this Decision and Order on plaintiff in accordance with the Local Rules.

Disappearing London
London is one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world, and has a history packed with interesting stories and details. Disappearing London takes a look at what made London what it is today and the problems which the traditional elements may face in the future. The programme takes a look at the London of old – the last of the capital's rag-and-bone men, the traditional hatter's shops which have adorned the city for centuries, and the Italian coffee houses that are still around today and may be under threat.
London has a population of over 7 million but this number is much higher when you consider the surrounding areas and new suburbs. Interestingly, the capital has a sub-economy and a sub-climate all of its own, with numerous research projects revealing that the city absorbs heat in the day time and emits it at night.
It will be interesting to see exactly what is happening to our great capital city, and how its history impacts on the metropolis we see today.

If your looking for a great location and easy parking.. this is it.
Very comfortable, with two queen beds and nice living room area. Only negative was house did have a slight musty smell (maybe of previous cats?) and the bathrooms were a bit small. But overall a very nice and up to date rental.
We enjoyed our stay. The best part is that it is right in the middle of town so we were able to walk almost everywhere - downtown, campus, etc. Hope to stay there again.
Our stay at White Fence farm was very positive. The house was spacious enough to accommodate 4 adults, 2 children, and six small dogs with their portable tents. The furnishings were adequate. We are fortunate to have washer and drier with 2 children. The house was decorated in the old rustic style which fits the downtown area that was walking distance from the house. We slept well even though we were on the main street with traffic pretty constant. Everything was clean and in order upon arrival. The last day, we did notice ants on the outside close to the house. We enjoyed our stay and when traveling that way again we will look up your property. Thank you for our enjoyable stay!
Our family stayed here while in Boone attending our daughter's graduation. The location of this property gave us easy access to downtown Boone and allowed us to walk to the Convocation Center for the graduation. The Cottage is clean, well appointed and roomy enough for our party of 5 adults to sleep, shower and hang out comfortably. The owner was prompt in answering any questions we had and was very helpful when planning for our trip. There are two parking spaces for this property with one additional one for the cottage in the back so if you have more than 2 cars, you'll need to plan for that. Suggestions would be to bleach out the towels (they needed it) and maybe add some wine glasses!. I would highly recommend this property and would absolutely stay here again!
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay
We needed a home to visit family in the Boone area and this was perfect. It was clean and very inviting.

Descrizioni fornite dal cantiere
The Ferretti 681, compared to the previous 680 model, immediately appears as a completely new boat. Space, big comfort and an extremely contemporary design thanks to the use of open pore teak and a newly designed of the shape, make it an ideal yacht for dimensions and space optimization. The new styling directive is also evident in the exteriors which present aggressive lines due to the lengthening of the overhead window structure and the addition of new space such as the spoiler bench seat offering a relax area on the sea. Great emphasis has also been placed upon the layout of the cabins. Two guest cabins; one with ample space to permit the positioning of the beds in an L position & the VIP cabin, an elegant and spacious alternative with private bathroom featuring teak flooring and marble basins. The master cabin with bed facing the rear deck, has been enriched with a large semi-circular sofa that allows one to admire the sea view from the famously characteristic open-view window structures, openable at the lateral portholes. The flying bridge is furnished with circular sofa, revolving table and two large sundecks to enjoy the sea. The project characteristics combined with the high performances, make the Ferretti 681 the jewel of the Ferretti yacht fleet.

Kipley is a 10 year old yellow lab that weighs approximately 65 pounds. Don't let his age fool you though; he has lots of energy that he likes to use throughout the day!
Kipley is great with people of all ages, is very gentle and respectful of children. He does not jump or nip at them ever. He is very docile and knows how to control himself when in their presence. Kipley has never met a stranger in his life – he likes to think of every person as a friend, regardless of if he has met them or not. He is also currently living with two cats and just ignores them, he never chases them – they aren't interesting enough in his opinion. Kipley is also good with other dogs. He can be a bit shy around dominant dogs but he has never been aggressive when approached by a dominant dog.
Kipley is house trained and can hold his bladder for 8-9 hours. He is crated while his foster is away and behaves excellent in his kennel. He calms down immediately when he is in the crate and he has never had an accident while in it (he will bark if he needs to go potty). Kipley does shed some but he LOVES to be brushed so a couple of good brushes a week will really limit the amount of shedding in the house.
Although he is great in the house, he loves to be outside running around and exploring. He would do best in a home with a fenced in yard but he currently does not live in town and respects the boundaries of his yard. Kipley's favorite thing to do outside is play fetch! He loves his tennis balls and will throw them at you to get your attention. This is the one of the only times he will bark, in order to get your attention. Kipley could play fetch for hours on end, his foster family is working on creating a specific time and place for the game‐ otherwise he can get too worked up about it. Kipley is also great on walks, he doesn't pull on the leash and tends to walk in a straight line.
*Kipley is currently on medication for his thyroid. It is just one pill a day, which is foster hides in his food.
Kipley is such a loving and peaceful dog. He is very well behaved, gets along great with everyone and everything, doesn't require a lot of supervision (he keeps himself entertained), and he loves to play – he is going to make some family VERY happy, could it be you?

I saw this thread an hour or two ago and I was racking my brain trying to figure out what work of his I knew, it was the second Xombi series by DC. I'm not familiar with any of his work other than Xombi but I dug his art there. His first name is spelled Frazer by the way.

@doomdoomdoom: He also did some work on Batman and Robin under Morrison. I thought his art suited the book fine(that arc atleast).
@judasnixon: Other than the Batman and Robin stuff hes also done some Uncanny X-Men, the Seven Soldiers of Victory Klarion the Witchboy issues.
His styles certainly not for everyone but I like it alot. It really just depends on the story hes assigned to. His art doesnt fit all stories.
I utterly despise Irving's pencils. Even on the stories it's supposedly fitting for, it doesn't look good. He's my least favourite artist and ruined Morrison's last story on Batman and Robin with his awful pencils and putrid inking. Man I don't like the guy's artwork.

Carrie's Couscous
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 20 mins
My best friend made a dish similar to this and I thought it was just amazing! Really easy, very good. I'm pretty sure she didn't use chicken broth, you could simply use water or even vegetble broth if you wanted.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 10 ounces couscous
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 can diced tomato
- 2 cups spinach leaves
- 3⁄4-1 lb muenster cheese, thinly sliced
- Melt 2 Tbls of butter in a pan, saute the onion until it's translucent, add the garlic and heat for about 1 minute, remove from heat Bring 2 cups of chicken broth to a boil with 1 Tbls of butter.
- Add the couscous, cover and remove from heat, let sit 5 minutes.
- After 5 minutes, add the couscous to the onions and garlic, drain and add tomatoes, mix together.
- Spray a baking dish with Pam.
- Put 1/3 of the couscous mixture in the bottom of the pan, top with half the spinach and 1/3 of the cheese, repeat again using 1/3 of the couscous, the remaining spinach and 1/3 of the cheese; the third layer is just couscous and cheese.
- Bake in the oven at 375 for 20 minutes.

It was very yummy! I used an 8 ounce can of diced tomatoes (since you didn't specify)....but I made a slight error in the prep. I added the vegetable broth to the sauted onions/garlic and cooked the couscous in that. I added the drained tomatoes and layered the mixture according to the recipe. Next time I will follow the recipe exactly...there WILL be a next time! Everyone enjoyed it :)
This is really good! I used shallots instead of the onion and a 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes. I managed to locate 2 slices of muenster cheese only.... so, I added sliced provolone and a little grated mozzarella. It worked! My DH, who doesn't eat leftovers, declared that he would be eating the "Couscous Stuff" for lunch tomorrow!

Settings were optical fluence of 25 and RF of 25. I was treated right up to eyeball (literally) and now have daily right eye pain that worsens with movement and use. Eye docs do not know about IPL + RF procedures nor what effect it can have on the eyes/nerves/structures and how to help. The RF of 25 goes 5mm depth. Can anyone help me with this? Two derms have told me that the radiofrequency from my treatment went too deep and caused fat atrophy under the right eye. Related? Please help.
