Car rental companies require a current, valid home country or US drivers license, your passport or photo identification, and a major credit card. Students on F-1 visas are allowed to drive in California using their home country license for as long as it is valid. You are required to be insured, and the car rental companies will offer you insurance; rates vary, and it pays to shop around for competitive prices. Below are some car rental companies in the Santa Monica area – be sure to ask if they provide a SMC student discount:

It is not really a field, but an arena of sorts for local games. It seems to be the most important part of town, at least to some.
It is an unassuming brick building. However, it is made assuming because it is surrounded by more traditional timber and plaster buildings. There are no windows and a very plain door. On the door is incribed the name of the establishment Zenorcans. Almost no one knows what goes on in there.
This is a Tea and Klah shop on the corner of two large streets. The streets meet at an odd angle, so the Corner Klah is a odd pie wedge shaped establishment. It has a few chairs and small table outside for patrons to avoid the noise inside for the noise outside.
Silver Thread's shop is a tailors shop. The shop mistress and her crew can produce a wide variety of local styled clothing in a wide variety of local cloths. While most clothes are always custom made, Silver Thread's shop actually has premade clothing.
Guild Stations are found in almost every town and city. They serve several functions. No matter what the local buildings are like, they have distinctive red doors and a lamp that is always kept burning to its right.
Bogmoors has been here for 721 years. It started with an ale stop for the Imperial invaders. From there it has been a similar stop for every wave of invaders since then, as well as every local for a good walk's distance.
The Silver Chalice is the shop (and market stall) where Fredius Cancian of Amar sells his fine wines. His wines are a bit pricey, but worth the cost as they are generally better than the local wines. (note: He sells finer local wines as well, just they are few and far between).
The Hostel of the Silent Brotherhood is a small hostel in the dock quarters of town. The Hostel is popular among scribes and scholars who value silence. In addition it is valued by those who are on the run, for the brotherhood consists mainly of skilled warriors adept at fighting with staves and maces.
On the intersection of Noble Avenue and First Street lies Kandorr's Fine Perfumery. The shop occupies the entire building which is built in a classical style with majestic marble pillars and stylish stained glass windows.
Long ago it was the 'Sleeping Bull' or something, but everybody calls it The Chimney nowadays. All because of the atmosphere, it is thicker than the soup they serve here, as some patrons like to claim.
The Full Goblet is a modest-sized, working-class tavern (public house), run by Hilgar. Hilgar is a bit over the hill and shabby, as is the general establishment. However, good solid fare at a decent value, and a regular and noisy clientele, keep the place in business, and the bar is also well-situated to bring in travellers.
Located in the lower part of the community, Pernouds is the epitome of sleazey establishments. The floors are dirty and smell of excretement, urine, and worse. The chairs are ramshackle built, and the tables are all in poor shape.
Nestled in between the other vendors and shops in the market is a small shop, humble in appearance, yet exclusive in clientele…
Wizard's Shop? Where's the Magic Shop? What sort of rubbish are you going on about sir?
It is a colorful shop, full of dolls, puppets, mannequins, small statues, and other things that are just "shadows" of a human. That is what this shop sells.
It was a single store that sold a variety of good made by a variety of people. It was such a novel concept that most people will dislike it. "It is just not the way we do things around here", they would say. Yet they still buy things here.
Argus is like most of the carter's in the city. He works out of one of the inns, where they actually prepare the food. (It is loaded into the cart there and kept warm by stoked coals and ash.) The Blue Rose carts are served by a consortium of inns, while a bit more expensive than standard cart food is well worth the price.
The city has clay tiles on its roofs. This is the bane of sneaky thieves in the city. So where do these tiles come from? And why does anyone think there might be an adventure related to this.
Adventurers love sharp objects: knives, swords, spear tips, arrow heads, and so on. So where do they go to get these items? A sharpshop, that is where.
Helioglyph (his magical name) is a Talismonger, a maker of charms, talismans, holy items, and so on. This is the place where those seeking fine craftsmanship and good symbolism come. If you are looking for enchanted items, go elsewhere.
When was the last time a character caught a cold or flu? Real people get them every now and again even with solid heating and dry interiors. Your characters are out in the cold and wet, and even inside is not always dry and warm. Imagine having to stop your dungeon crawl, sitting in a tight defensive position, while you all are feverish.

Spry Creek offers fine home accents in historic Corolla, NC
Spry Creek is owned by Outer Banks native Karen Scarborough Whitfield and her husband, John. They have converted her father's old auto workshop garage into a surprising home accents and gifts shop. The bay doors and shop flooring were kept the same for charm. Be sure to look for Karen's father's work bench, which came out of Penny's Hill Lifesaving Station. In the shop, emphasis is placed on unusual, handcrafted, quality wares.
Locally made jewelry, artwork, candles, soaps, photography and carved decoys. They offer domestic and imported linens, shawls, handcrafted ceramics and hand-woven throws made in the U.S.A. You will also find handcrafted goods from Spain, Poland, Portugal and Mexico, as well as, Polish art glass.
Spry Creek is named after a deep water creek just north of the shop where local fishermen used to keep their boats and a few local crabbers still do.

Claude Said:
Do I have to be licensed and bonded to install solar on rv's?We Answered:
That's a good question. I would do a search of other contractors who provide the service and see what licensing they have.For your own liability purposes, I would get insured.
Evelyn Said:
Does this sound "crazy" to you..? and why..?We Answered:
That's quite amazing, I've been thinking along the same lines myself. Nurse...... could you loosen my jacket a little? Ah, That's better!Marc Said:
I plan to hook up a large inverter to an electrical circuit w/ an extension chord..will it work?We Answered:
I have a system similar to that which I put together.It's really pretty simple,some people are overwhelmed and scared to try.Keep the 12 volt leads to the inverter from the source as short as possible and don't expect miracles out of the inverter because they consume power even at idle.Here's a good website to glean some information from.
Vicki Said:
I have a small rv 17 feet by 8.5 feet, some nights I will need to run my electric heater for a few hours.?We Answered:
OK, you will have to do a little bit of math.a) How big is the heater - how many watts does it take? The typical plug-in electric heater draws 1500 watts on high and 750 watts on low.
b) What is the capacity of those batteries? The typical small marine battery has about a 115AH capacity - it will make 115 amps at 12 volts for one hour. That is 1380 watts.
c) Assuming no inverter losses, 100% battery efficiency and a full charge, you have the capacity to produce 8280 watts for one hour.
Divide 8280 by 1500 and you can run your heater for 5.5 hours at full output and nearly 10 hours at low output.
In reality, your system will run at about 80% efficiency as there are inverter losses and the batteries are never quite fully charged. You also have other appliances being run from them. So, 4 hours will leave them nearly flat at that rate. Now, if the batteries are heavier than 115AH units, you will get more time out of them. Smaller gets you less.
I suggest that you get a discharge limiter if you do not already have it. Our VW camper has a two-battery system that cuts off at 50% discharge and requires an override to switch to the single marine-battery which will then run flat if required. The idea is that the vehicle will start in the morning. A link to such a unit is below - whether it is suitable for your application only you can determine.
You can get an adaptor and connect your heater to a large tank - something equivalent to a gas grille tank or larger which greatly reduces the cost of operation. But no propane heater not designed for an enclosed space should be used inside your RV because of carbon monoxide. At the very least invest in a CO detector *and* a propane detector if you are using a camping-type heater inside. Propane is heavier than air and will fill up your camper if there is a leak - with the potential for a very large KA-BOOM.
Good luck with it, and be careful. Around here, propane runs about $3.25/gallon in small lots - comes to a bit over four pounds per US gallon. If you use a limiter and set your central heater thermostat at say, 50F, you should be fine for sleeping. Our camper has a condensing propane furnace that takes less half-a-pound per hour to operate at full output, but then it is relatively small inside and does very well for us.
Gail Said:
Can someone convert an RV for me?We Answered:
The conversion to vegetable oil isn't the hard the only thing that need to do is have an extra tank for the oil so you can start the engine on regular diesel fuel and when the extra tank of oil is heated with the engine coolant and when the engine is hot you switch over to the oil tank and then back to regular fuel before you shut the engine off so there's no vegetable oil in the fuel lines.Misty Said:
Do you need a C46 license to install solar systems on Rv's Or Boats in California?We Answered:
No the state contractors board has no control over RVs or Boats.Discuss It!

Though it might not be the name you first think of, SteelSeries is a well-respected brand in the gaming peripheral market. In fact, the company's last mouse to cross our desks, the snappily titled SteelSeries Xai, received our highest commendation. However, with even peripherals becoming ever more advanced these days (check out the amazing Logitech G19 gaming keyboard, which has its own CPU and colour screen, to see what we mean), it was arguably high time for an update. So does the new Sensei bring the necessary performance and features to steal gamers' hearts (again)?
When you first see the Sensei, you would be forgiven for thinking that not really all that much has changed. Sure, there's a new glossy metallic coat of paint, but this aside it's the exact same ambidextrous shape and has the same eight-button configuration as its predecessor, down to the triangular dpi switch below its scroll wheel (unlike some gaming mice the Sensei offers only the option to toggle between two dpi settings out of the box, something the company found its pro gamer partners wanted).
However, under the hood this is a very different and far more advanced rodent. For it, too, has its own powerful processor! In fact, ladies and gents, we have a mouse with an original Pentium-equivalent CPU inside. This allows you to double the sensitivity from its laser sensor's native 5,700 DPI/CPI to a whopping 11,400, among other enhancements. The Sensei also maintains the Xai's LCD screen (at the mouse's bottom). Even if it's monochrome and can't display more than a few lines at a time, that's still rather impressive. Add in local storage, and this mouse is practically a computer in your palm.
Not to be outdone by Logitech's G-Series (the G9 and G9x), which offer a tiny strip of LED lighting in whatever colour you wish, the Sensei boasts even more LED areas. This includes two rings to either side of the scroll wheel, a round LED between wheel and CPI button, and the SteelSeries logo. All three can be set independently to a selection of 16.8 million colour options. Though the logo part is obviously covered while gaming, either way it's a glorious sight to behold. If you're into LED bling, this is definitely the mouse for you, and if you aren't, you can simply turn it all off. Incidentally, the inclusion of all this bling is something of a turn around from Steel Series' previous philosophy of cutting all the extraneous stuff and just sticking to the hardcore gaming basics as it did on the Xai (which is still readily available it should be noted).
Combined with features like 'adjustable lift distance', 'advanced macros', and FreeMove (which eliminates the dreaded path correction) - to name but a few - SteelSeries' claim that the Sensei is the "world's most customisable mouse" is probably no great exaggeration. What this gaming mouse does lack is a weights system (it weighs 106g and always will, unless you chop bits off) or adjustable grips, so if you're after the ability to change your rodent's shell, the G9x or Cyborg RAT might be more up your street.
It's also worth mentioning that, like its predecessor, the Sensei was designed with the help of some of the biggest names in competitive gaming (eSports) across various genres, including the likes of Fnatic, Evil Geniuses and iNcontrol. Having a whole raft of people giving their input is a vastly preferable concept to being advised by just a single famous gamer (Fatal1ity, anyone?), who might have a distinct playing style and ergonomic tastes that won't be for everyone.

This morning on my way to work I noticed that familiar scent of Fall in the air. The only thing is, i'm so not ready yet. Leaves were falling off some trees this weekend, plus I spotted one that was already orange! As much as I love apple picking, hot cider, and finding the perfect pumpkin... i'm holding onto Summer in the hopes that we'll still have some warm weather to enjoy! What about you? Are you totally ready for Fall or clinging to the last of August?
Also this morning, Laura from the lovely blog Clothesure has interviewed me for her fantasy feature series, which you can check out here. Thanks so much for having me Laura!

Tutorial cavity mapFields
I started OpenFOAM tutorial but I'm stuck almost at the beginning. I run the first case "cavity" and I should continue with "CavityFine" with another Mesh definition. In order to keep the calculation already done I should proceed in mapFields but I cannot find where I should write it. Should I create a new file within the system folder or write it in controlDict? Thx for your help. |
Where you should write what?
mapFields ../cavity -consistent
It's a command. You need to run it from the shell.
I installed OpenFOAM 1.5 on windows, there are all the commmands on the right side of the OpenFOAM designer window, including mapFields, but if I right click on it and I click start then it says taht the argument is missing ...
I tried to customize the command mapFields (giving the application name the path and the option -consistent) but it does not work, is anyone familiar with this windows version please? :confused:

Wales will be looking to gain revenge after the Wallaroos inflicted a 25-3 defeat in the pool phase.
Head coach Rhys Edwards' hand was forced somewhat with prop Megan York ruled out due to concussion from Wednesday's loss to New Zealand while centre Rebecca de Filippo has been suspended for two weeks after committing a tip tackle against the Kiwis.
As a result Catrin Edwards returns to the front row as tighthead prop while Elen Evans comes in at outside centre with Robyn Wilkins switching to inside centre.
The other changes see Lowri Harries replace Carys Phillips at hooker while Amy Day returns to scrum half in place of Sian Moore.
There the three changes to the bench with flanker Nia Davies joining wingers Elli Norkett and Rafiuke Taylor.
Edwards admitted he had to make some tough calls in selection, particularly at hooker and scrum half, for the final game of the World Cup campaign.
"Both positions have been very competitive," he said. "Carys has really taken her opportunity and Lowri has made an impact off the bench. Going into this game it's important we get the combinations right and also reward Lowri for her positive impact when she came on against New Zealand.
"At scrum half there is such a fine margin between the two - with Sian and Amy its quite specific in terms of their roles. Sian is very forthright in her approach and how she controls the forwards and again Amy has been really impressive when she has come on and raised the tempo of the game. If it wasn't for her we would not have scored the fourth try against South Africa. So it's been a very tough decision."
Edwards is also hoping Evans' return to action will ignite the backline.
"Elen is an established player at this level. She has been really unlucky not to feature in the last two games but with her re-establishing the Six Nations partnership with Robyn Wilkins, hopefully we will be able to create space out wide."
Although Wales will go into the match as firm underdogs, Edwards is hoping his side can bounce back from the heavy defeat to New Zealand on Wednesday and finish off in style.
"The potential is that we could finish seventh which would be a huge achievement. We were taught a lesson by New Zealand. There is no reason why we can't beat Australia and that is the incentive we have got as a group. We were really disappointed not to get the result against them first time round and we have learnt a lot since then - it's time to show how far we have come," he said.

Easy Microwaved Apples
For a quick and tasty holiday treat, cook an apple in the microwave.
Core and slice one apple. (I like to leave the skin on.)
Top with:
2 Tablespoons of brown sugar
1 Tablespoon of sweet cream butter
chopped pecans
smidge of cloves
smidge of ginger
(You may substitute any of your favorite nuts and spices)
Microwave for one minute. Stir to coat the apples with the buttery sugar mixture.
Microwave for one more minute (or until your apple reaches the desired softness.)
Top with a dollop of whipped cream, if you like.
Yum yum!

Looking for a fitting audio track. Something that's rising, a little emotional.
We are celebrating our 10th year, but in this video I'm making, I am showing also things we have done for the community, like Cancer Awareness, MDA, Veterans events etc.
So, rising, hair raising, but not sad either. Something that also ends with a boom! Thanks so much!
Hey – here are some nice rising beautiful tracks for you sir -
Wish I knew the a specific style you were looking for or even a few different styles that might work but here is one. It's an inspiring rock track.
maby you need something like this:
http://audiojungle.net/item/rebirth/3416090Thanks for listening
I think this one would be great for celebrating:
or this one too: http://audiojungle.net/item/brighter-days-are-coming/4669880
or this powerful one: http://audiojungle.net/item/driven-motivation/4404496?sso
or much softer very motivational: http://audiojungle.net/item/closer-to-the-sky/4169338?sso
very nice too: http://audiojungle.net/item/lifting-motivational-piano/4111875?sso
and really hair rising and beautiful, more serious and orchestral-bombastic :
I offer you to get a free "boom" in the end of any of those, you just tell me on which position!
Thanks a lot for listening!
This is a popular track that is used often for celebrations, awards, etc… if you're looking for something with a triumphant, orchestral feel, check this out.
http://audiojungle.net/item/fanfare-and-theme-for-sporting-heroes/2715907The middle section in particular has the rising feel that you want, and it definitely ends with a boom. There are 3 different edits of the track as well.
One of these may work, the are both pretty uplifting and build up over time:
http://audiojungle.net/item/looking-on-the-bright-side/2900169 http://audiojungle.net/item/living-the-dream/3458458Try this one if you like!
http://audiojungle.net/item/a-moment-to-think-deep/4720031?WT.ac=portfolio&WT.seg_1=portfolio&WT.z_author=cocoonstudiosThank you.
Good luck!

South Africa's ruling African national Congress (ANC) threatened to take legal action against a Johannesburg gallery for displaying art which lampoons South African President Jacob Zuma and accuses the party of corruption.
The ANC wants the Goodman Gallery to remove a painting of Zuma called The Spear, which depicts the president with his genitals exposed and another work that has a For Sale sign superimposed over the party logo.
The picture of Zuma is a facsimile of a famous poster of Russian communist revolutionary Vladimir Lenin. In the red, black and yellow drawing, the president is depicted as striking Lenin's heroic stance, except his genitals hang outside of his trousers.
The works are part of a collection called Hail to the Thief and are meant to question whether the century-old ANC has lost its moral compass.
"It is making a mockery of the highest office," ANC spokesman Jackson Mthembu said.
Mthembu said the artist was within his rights to express himself, but said The Spear was "vulgar" and ridiculed Zuma's stature.
The collection takes a provocative look at ANC heroes and highlights public perception that there is growing corruption in government, with officials abusing positions to amass wealth.
Other works include a Soviet-style poster reading: "The Kleptocrats" and "We demand Chivas, BMW's and Bribes."
The images play to concerns raised by international investors and the ANC's governing partner, labor federation COSATU, which has said South Africa is becoming a "predator state" for sale to the highest bidder.
"We are not going to remove the images for the sake of defending the artist's right to freedom of expression and for the sake of upholding the gallery's reputation," said Lara Koseff, who works at the gallery.
Since coming into office in 2009, Zuma has been widely considered unimpressive on the policy front, while making headlines with his colorful personal life.
The president has been married six times and fathered 21 children. He faces a race for re-election as party leader at the end of this year.
The Spear by well-known anti-apartheid artist Brett Murray has already been sold for R136,000 (US$16,300) to a German citizen.
Anton Harber, chairman of the Freedom of Expression Institute called the ANC's demands "silly."
"I can see that some of the images may make people feel uncomfortable, but art is not there to make people feel comfortable," Harber said. "It is meant to get us thinking and talking about pertinent issues of corruption, nepotism ... these are serious things."

US faces tough fight in cash smuggling crackdown
Associated Press | Posted: Saturday, February 11, 2012 5:38 pm |
This undated photo, provided by U.S. Immigrations and Customs
Enforcement (ICE), shows bulk cash seized during a combined ICE and
Homeland Security Investigation (HSI) operation. Immigration agents
report a rising number of cash seizures and arrests in the past half-
dozen years as criminals, sidestepping scrutiny from banks over
electronic transfers, resort to using cash to conceal proceeds from
drug trafficking as they move the money south to crime rings in
Mexico and elsewhere. (AP Photo/ICE)
Jeanette Barraza-Galindo conspicuously left her bags of teddy bears
and throw pillows on a bus during an inspection at the Texas-Mexico
border _ and professed ignorance about the $277,556 officers found
hidden inside. The bags were handed to her at a bus station, gifts to
be given to a child upon her return to Mexico, she told investigators.
The crime she pleaded guilty to _ bulk cash smuggling _ is
increasingly drawing the attention and resources of federal
authorities responsible for fighting drug trafficking across the
border. Federal immigration authorities say their investigations have
yielded more cash seizures and arrests in the past half-dozen years
as criminals, sidestepping scrutiny from banks over electronic
transfers, resort to using cash to conceal drug trafficking and move
money to crime rings in Mexico and elsewhere.
It's similar to the tactic taken in fighting terrorism: crippling
financing networks before the money ends up with leaders of drug
cartels and trafficking rings. But the flow is hard to stop.
Officials in both the U.S. and Mexico are realizing that criminal
enterprises, just like other businesses, can't operate without a
steady cash stream, said David Shirk, director of the Trans-Border
Institute at the University of San Diego, which promotes scholarship
of border issues.
"We're shifting our strategy to a more diverse strategy of not just
going after bad guys and arresting them, but also going after their
guns, going after their money," he said.
It's illegal to try to smuggle more than $10,000 in undeclared cash
across the border. Officials say the crime is often connected to
other illegal activities including drug trafficking, gambling and
credit card fraud. Money that's seized is deposited into government
forfeiture funds.
The problem is not new, but there are signs of heightened emphasis.
The Obama administration says targeting bulk cash smuggling is a
prong of its strategy against transnational crime. Congressional
panels held hearings on the issue last year. U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement reported more than $150 million in seized cash
and 428 arrests in bulk cash smuggling investigations in fiscal year
2011, up from $7.3 million and 48 in fiscal year 2005, according to
agency statistics.
And a cash smuggling center in Vermont that opened in 2009 and is run
by ICE's homeland security investigations has expanded operations,
officials announced in December.
But experts say measuring the impact of the beefed-up focus is tricky.
It's hard to track cash's origin and destination _ and investigators
can't always count on help from couriers, who may be more afraid
cooperating than of spending a few years in prison. Plus, the amount
seized represents a fraction of the total money at stake. Estimates
cited by federal authorities suggest at least $18 billion in illicit
proceeds is laundered across the southwestern border each year.
A 2010 report by the Government Accountability Office said staffing
and infrastructure at the border were limiting success in detecting
large quantities of cash, and also highlighted another, continuing
problem: the use of prepaid, stored value cards to move money.
"I call this winning the battle, losing the war. Sure, $90 million
sounds like a lot," said Bruce Bagley, a University of Miami
international studies professor who researches drug trafficking.
"That's nothing in comparison to the $19 to $39 billion that's being
returned" across the border.
Cash smuggling, though a seemingly elementary form of money
laundering, has emerged as a seductive medium for criminals as banks
have become more sophisticated in spotting suspicious transactions.
Cash has built-in advantages, too: It can be transferred without a
trace and is instantly available.
"The financial industry has done a much better job in terms of trying
to keep out illicit money, and as a result the organizations adapt
and then they go to some tried-and-true methods _ and, that is,
they're bulking it up and sending it where it needs to go," said
Joseph Burke, chief of ICE's National Bulk Cash Smuggling Center in
Criminal organizations generally move contraband north across the
border. The money they make, in turn, flows south.
Burke said the money is often collected at consolidation hubs _
perhaps a home in a residential neighborhood or a warehouse _ and
distributed among several couriers. Dividing the cash into smaller
chunks means less money will be lost if one courier is arrested. Drug
trafficking groups recruit relatives, associates and those lower in
the organization _ like those who might need to pay off debt to the
cartel _ sometimes dangling as incentive a percentage of the amount
of money being transported.
Couriers have assorted methods for moving the money, including
strapping it to their body, hiding it in car compartments, stacking
it on pallets and concealing it in vacuum-packed bags.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection has increased the size of the
border patrol and begun screening more vehicle traffic and southbound
rail traffic for weapons and cash since the Obama administration
announced a new southwestern border initiative in March 2009, agency
officials said at congressional hearings last year.
But the accountability office report said CBP needs better data on
how successful its efforts have been and more consistent, full-time
enforcement. The office said its investigators tested three border
ports of entry, with shredded cash hidden in the car.
At two sites, the report said, the cars were allowed to turn around
without being searched or the driver questioned. The vehicle wasn't
physically inspected at the third, though officers did use an X-Ray
Efrain Perez, a program manager with CBP, said patrol officers are
vigilant about looking for suspicious behavior, but it's impossible
to catch every single person.
"We know we're can't talk to 100 percent" (of drivers). It's like
looking for a needle in a haystack, but we put a lot of resources out
there," he said.
Authorities can point to some successful, large-scale investigations,
including one _ Operation Pacific Rim _ that ICE credits with
disrupting a powerful cocaine smuggling organization. In that
investigation, authorities intercepted at seaports in Colombia and
Mexico $41 million in shrink-wrapped cash hidden within shipments of
fertilizer, and broadened it out to score arrests by locating the
cartel's smuggling routes.
Meanwhile, activity continues steadily _ mostly, but not always,
along the southwestern border.
The cases this month include a U.S. citizen from Mexico who was
caught in California with $277,770 in cash, wrapped in bundles and
concealed in the rear panels of the car, and the discovery in
Illinois of $572,045 in a rental van driven by a man authorities said
had a history of marijuana trafficking, according to a law
enforcement bulletin obtained by The Associated Press.
Barraza, the woman stopped with the stuffed animals and throw pillows
last March, caught the attention of border patrol officers after she
ignored instructions for passengers to remove belongings from the
bus. She later pleaded guilty to illegally concealing the money,
though charging documents don't explicitly state the motive. She was
sentenced in September to two years in prison. Her lawyer didn't
return messages.
Perez said the evolving methods of some couriers indicate progress in
the fight.
"The smugglers, the drug traffickers, know we're out there, and they
adapt. And so do we."

Baby Boomer Magazine Article Marketing ProgramBaby Boomer Magazine is committed to giving Baby Boomers the knowledge and resources through informative Articles as well as those of our Advertisers to make intelligent decisions as to their health, finances, retirement, activities and the products they buy and services they utilize. In this relationship, Baby Boomer Magazine utilizes our Advertisers and Article Content Partners to educate, consult and sell the products and services that truly benefit Baby Boomers.
Baby Boomer Magazine is over 9 years old and is without question one of the most popular Online resources for Baby Boomers with thousands Page Views every day. But the truth is that nearly 70% of its daily visitors come into our Online Magazine through a keyword/phrase search on a Search Engine. 3,000 - 11,000 Pageviews a day.
Baby Boomer Magazine (BabyBoomer-Magazine.com) is a Very Strong Search Engine Marketing Website. This means that its design from its conception for the purpose of effectively getting its articles into Search Engines in as little as 24 hours.Search Engine Marketing (SEM) is a form of Internet Marketing that seeks to promote websites/webpages by increasing their visibility on search Engine Result Pages (SERPS). It's a lot more complicated than that but this is a simple definition.
• Over 60% of those conducting online research for products and services go to Search Engines First.• Over 70% those wanting to purchase a product or service online will use Search Engines to find where to purchase it.• Over 80% of serious buyers research a company, product or service on the Internet before making their purchases.• Over 90% of U.S. adults who research online before making a purchase decision use Search Engines as a research tool.Search Engines build keyword/phrase indexes of Web pages through a process called spidering using what is commonly called a Web Crawler. The process associates one or more of these keyword/phrases to the content of that webpage. When a Search Engine User types in a keyword/phrase, the Search Engine Result Pages (SERPS) reflect those indexed pages. There are often hundreds, if not thousands, of webpages that have been indexed with the same keyword/phrase. Article Marketing can effectively give the Search Engines and its Users the subject matter that they are searching for. If done properly, this can truly be a win-win situation.
• Over 70% of online researchers will look at and click on an organic listing (on the left) before clicking on an advertised listing (on the right). • Over 80% of online shoppers will read and trust a third party professionally written article about a business, product or Service before they will by the contents of a company website. Article Marketing involves the publishing of articles through various article publishing resources such as Blogs, News Websites, Article Publishers and Online Magazines.
• Blogs - To the Search Engines Blogs now have the reputation for having content that is poorly written and suspect as to the significance other than someone's opinion and often rantings. GOOGLE has even broken Blogs out into its own separate category as to not confuse its Users with this kind of content with real informative content. Look in the upper left corner of the GOOGLE Search Page for Blog.
• News Websites - Can be very good if you can get into them. The disadvantage of the rating given to News Websites is that to the Major Search Engines, news (depending on the subject matter) is seen as something with short term significance. This generally results in the page listing often starting to drop within a few weeks.
• Article Publishers - A search of the internet will find dozens of article publishers. Most of these publishers are considered questionable as to their relative search content and generally not rated highly in the Search Engines. Like with the Blogs, the writing is often amateurish and the significance of their content is considered unreliable at best. The best use of Article Publishers is to use them to support an article with the same relative content of a primary article published through a rated source. Baby Boomer Magazine often utilizes these Article Publishing resources to benefit its own published articles.
• Over 95% of the articles submitted by Article Publishing resources will never get into the first three pages of listings on a Major Search Engine• Over 90% of articles published by an Article Publishing resource will never see the first 10 pages of Search Engines listings.
This is where Authority Rated Magazine Article Marketing becomes one of the most effective resources for getting articles into primary listing positions of the Major Search Engines.
Magazine Article Marketing is basically the same as Article Marketing but with the originating article being published on a High Authority Rated Magazine Website. The main difference is how an Online Magazine (if properly designed, implemented and optimized) is perceived by Search Engines and how Search Engine Optimized articles published on a High Authority Rated Online Magazine are prioritized in their listings. Unlike News Articles, Magazine Articles grow stronger with time just like websites can but they get into the Search Engines much, much, much faster.
Baby Boomer Magazine Article Marketing will not only expose your Search Engine Optimized Article(s) about your business, product or service to thousands of its daily Baby Boomer Readers, but will effectively get them into the Major Search Engines. We guaranteeBabyBoomer-Magazine.com Article Marketing PartnerWhether a Baby Boomer is searching for a health concern, a financial issue, a retirement resource or searching for something that fulfills a Baby Boomer specific desire or need; most have come to Baby Boomer Magazine searching for something. A visitor that is searching for something is considered to be a better qualified buyer than one that is just browsing for news or for socialization.
• Over 80% of online shoppers will read and trust a third party professionally written article about a business, product or Service before they will trust the contents of a company website. Baby Boomer Magazine adds substantially to the legitimacy of Article Content published on its website.
A BabyBoomer-Magazine.com Article can be thought of as a high quality fishing line dragging the ocean floor (Internet) for fish (potential customers). With an article, or many articles, you are going fishing with lots of fishing lines that are capable of using many different kinds of bait (key words/phrases). Each of these fishing lines (articles) can be optimized to benefit from its highly rated relative content to a particular bait (key words/products) to catch your desired fish (qualified buyer) for a particular product. Add to this just the right fishing hook for your bait (200 to 400 word professionally edited article) designed expressly to motivate the desired fish (qualified buyer) to eat your bait (close the sale) and you have a real winner of a marketing campaign.
With Your Own Website representing one fishing line, it is logical to assume that the more article fishing lines you have out there trolling the Internet with your various keyword/phrases and targeted article content bait, the more qualified buyers you will catch?
If this makes sense to you, we are going to make it easy for you and your Advertising Budget.CHECK OUT OUR BABY BOOMER MAGAZINE ARTICLE MARKETING SPECIALS HERE

Fishing: Story Story Posted 10-08-2011 Martin-Wells Goes Wire-to-Wire at Inaugural LBAA Lady Bass Classic Gilbertsville, KY – Legendary angler Pam Martin-Wells will get to add another entry into her life resume as she earned a hard earned, run away victory in the inaugural Lady Bass Anglers Association (LBAA) 2011 Lady Bass Classic on Kentucky Lake. Martin-Wells of Bainbridge, Georgia brought four fish weighing in at 8.81 pounds to bring her three-day winning total to 25.60 pounds. The key to victory for Martin-Wells was persistence and keeping' the faith. "I just kept believing in the spot and I was in and believing in myself -- sticking to it, and just casting and casting and casting," she stated. This victory enabled Martin-Wells to win the Triple Crown in the first full year of the LBAA. To win the "Triple Crown" and angler must win a regular season tournament, Angler of the Year (AOY), and the Classic. Martin-Wells won at Guntersville and Old Hickory wrapped up the AOY title on the very last day at Old Hickory, and completed the Triple Crown with the win today. "I caught some on a spook and a Texas rigged NetBait Trick Worm," Martin-Wells continued. "I was fishing the trick worm really, really slow. There were so many shad back in the area I was fishing I felt there was no need in throwing a fast bait. I could not see them hitting a Rat L Trap or a spinnerbait when there were 9 million shad there." Second place went to Cheryl Bowden of Plano, Texas whose three-day total was 15.69-pounds. Emily Shaffer of Mt. Juliet, Tennessee finished third with 15.36. Pelham, Alabama's Kim Bain-Moore was fourth with 15.29-pounds. Cheryl Lalumandier of Harvester, Missouri was fifth with 14.93-pounds. Sixth was Susan Gregory from Kiln, Mississippi with 13.18 and Gregory was followed in seventh by Sylva, North Carolina's Heather Broom with 12.82. Positions eight through ten belong to Jennifer Stelly of Sulpher, Louisiana with 12.35, Emory, Texas's Debbie Kemp with 11.84, and Jenny Nevans with 10.18-pounds. Snohomish, Washington's Bonnie Ward claimed a come from behind victory on the Co-angler side. Ward's three-day total was 13.07-pounds of bass. "It's a huge honor to win this," a smiling Ward commented after the event. "I'm exceptionally excited about this." Ward used a wacky rigged Senko during the first two days of fishing but due to the wind on Kentucky Lake today, that did not work for her on the final day of competition. "I went to a ten inch Yamamoto worm and I could not catch keepers with that. My pro partner was catching keepers and she shared her successful lures with me," Ward said. Local favorite Brandi Frasier from Hanson, Kentucky came in a close second with 12.24-pounds and Gallatin, Tennessee's Regina Pierpaoli with 9.88 followed Frasier in third. In fourth was Lebanon, Tennessee's Dianna Montgomery with 9.28 and fifth went to Beaumont, Texas' Renee Key-Johnston with 8.93. Positions six through ten on the Co-angler side were: 6) Kim Giddens/Alpine, Alabama 7.83, 7) Diane Smith/Fayetteville, Georgia 7.60, 8) Vicki Henderson/Ashdown, Arkansas 4.83, 9) Diana Uebelhack/Mt. Vernon, Indiana 4.72, and 10) Sarah Davis/Livingston, Louisiana 2.98. Cheryl Bowden caught big bass for the LBAA 2011 Lady Bass Classic on the Pro side and it weighed 5.02-pounds. Brandi Frasier caught big bass on the co-angler side and Frasier's bass weighed 3.25-pounds.

Miller Gangsters Bloods 2010
The Miller Gangster Bloods are an African American street gang formed in the east side of South Central, Los Angeles in the 1970's. Their territory reaches south of the 105 Freeway to 120th Street in the south (the 120 Miller Gangsters being the largest sub set), between Avalon Blvd. (west) and Central Avenue (east). The E/S MGB are close allies of the Athens Park Bloods (graffiti barring the tag Athens Miller is a strong indication of this alliance) and are considered enemies of the 118th East Coast Blocc Crips', 116th Avalon Gangster Crips, Holmes Street Watts Crips, 104 Hard Time Hustler Crips and the 116th Kitchen Crips. East Coast founder of the United Blood Nation O.G Mack claimed to have family in this gang who supposedly sanctioned him to start his own chapter of the Bloods in New York City.

Review: Walking
PUBLISHED: 20:25 19 August 2012 | UPDATED: 20:46 19 August 2012
Single file. Slow pace. Silent. An art installation set in one of the most beautiful swathes of Norfolk countryside relaxes its participants and shines a new light on their surroundings.
Walking through the Norfolk countryside is nothing exceptional for those that live here.
We know the thousand mile skies, sweeping farmland and lumpen dunes.
But in creating Walking, Robert Wilson can make even those born and bred here look anew at the place they live in.
Consisting of a three-mile walk that idles through the countryside around Holkham - mostly areas not normally open to the public - the piece forces you to relax into your surroundings and take a longer look at what we so often take for granted.
It opens with a giant blunt and ugly installation imposed on the countryside, guarded by yellow-suited high priests who demurely guide you in. It throbs noisily and ominously, plunges you into darkness, then guides you into a surreal waiting room that forces a stillness. It slows you to a gentler pace, as one by one the walkers drift off along a path marked by white stones and sticks.
It is that change of tempo rather than any of the installations themselves - of which there are disappointingly few - that really gives this experience power.
Stripped of phones, music players, watches even, you are left to really look, hear, smell the world around you.
The habitat is diverse: from watercourses with dragonflies swarming over to sinister, gnarled woodland to teasing glimpses of Holkham's famous shoreline; and it is the countryside that is the true canvas. Wilson's artistry isn't in the architectural pieces that punctuate the walk, but in controlling your emotions and your experience as you journey through the trail.
The end offers a playful, surprising twist, and as with the rest of this event takes you both deep into and beyond the landscape it inhabits.
Walking continues daily, 11am to 3pm until September 2. Visit www.nnf12.org.uk or call 01603 766400 for details.
