Our stay was perfect, everything were working well, the place was clean, safe and full of equipaments.
The reception person was very educated and helpful.
We recomend to stay in Valentina's apartament en Venice.
A very nice appartment in a cosy and very calm area. Good view at the canal. And quite central in Venice. We enjoyed the stay in a "real Venetian appartment". Good info from Marco, who met us at the boat.
Good location and spacious but maintenance issues.
Very good. Beautiful apartment in the centre! We enjoyed a lot!
The apartment was great - terrific location and well equipped. We found it easy to enjoy the best of Venice in our own time though the casino was not on our itinerary. A quiet spot that delighted the whole family. Thanks.
If you want to stay in the heart of Venice I recommend you contact Valentina.
We were originally booked to stay in this property but due to some building works we were relocated to another fantatastic apartment in the heart of Venice just near Piaza San Marco.
Valentina and her assistant were only too helpful.
The apartment was spacious and comfortable with all that a couple or a couple plus child will need and of course all in fabulous Venice is walking distance.
Mark and Family
+ Very central and quiet location - It was not enough toilet paper available - coffee maker was broken - The dishes were not clean
+ Sehr zentrale und ruhige Lage
- Es war nicht genug WC-Papier vorhanden
- Kaffeemaschine war kaputt
- Geschirr war nicht sauber
Excellent location. Stick your head out of the window and you can see into St. Mark's Square. Amply equipped with dishes and linens. Only problem is that the sofa bed in the living room is heavily infested with either fleas or bedbugs. The two regular beds had no such problem.
Valentina manages his apartment as a business too impersonal. For that I had gone to a hotel. Do not answer emails. The apartment is well, is nice, but ought to indicate more clearly the area and a description. The beds are pushed together, with springs and sink and one of them is very poor quality mattresses, not sleeping well. Low electrical power contracted, put the oven to heat frozen pizza and jumped automatic. The dining table and have to fix the furniture where it gets the dishes too. In the rest of the apartment is clean, friendly, has everything and is central.
Valentina maneja su apartamento como un negocio demasiado impersonal. Para eso me hubiese ido a un hotel.
No contesta los correos electrónicos.
El apartamento está bien, es agradable, pero debiese indicar con más claridad la zona y hacer una descripción.
Las camas matrimoniales son individuales unidas, con resortes y se hunden y una de ellas tiene colchones de muy mala calidad, no se duerme bien.
Baja potencia electrica contratada, pusimos el horno para calentar pizzas congeladas y saltó el automático.
La mesa del comedor hay que arreglarla y los muebles donde se pone la loza también.
En el resto el apartamento esta limpio, es acogedor, tiene de todo y es centrico.
Bellissimo e caratteristico appartamento proprio a 10mt da piazza S. Marco.
Il ragazzo che ci ha consegnato le chiavi è stato molto disponibile e gentile oltre ad averci dato qualche dritta sui ristoranti.
Unico neo sono i 20€ da dare se si arriva dopo le ore 20.
Noi lavoriamo e il tempo x arrivare non basta x non pagare la quota. Alcuni così si sentono obbligati a cambiare alloggio o arrivano la mattina del giorno seguente ma nel mio caso preferivo pagarli ma essere già sul posto per non perdermi la festa in piazza nel periodo di Carnevale. E il prezzo della camera è stato molto onesto e la camera caratteristica moltissimo apprezzata dal mio ragazzo.

On Monday, the nation celebrates Presidents' Day. Or is it George Washington's Birthday? What about Abraham Lincoln? Confused yet? Everyone agrees that Monday is a holiday, but what should we call it? Some government offices call it Presidents' Day. Others say the holiday is officially Washington's Birthday.
The History Behind Presidents' Day
George Washington was elected the country's first President on April 30, 1789. Soon after, Americans began publicly celebrating his birthday.
Presidential historians say the actual date of George Washington's birth is February 11, 1732. A change in the calendar system 20 years later shifted all dates 11 days ahead, making Washington's birthday February 22. In 1879, Congress made Washington's birthday an official federal holiday. It was the first federal holiday to celebrate an individual's birth date.
In 1968, Congress passed the Monday Holidays Act, which moved the holiday to the third Monday in February. The new law did not change the holiday's name. It was still called Washington's Birthday, even though some lawmakers wanted to call it Presidents' Day to include Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln's actual birthday is February 12.
The Great Presidential Debate
Many people agree that the holiday should celebrate all past Presidents. They feel Lincoln should be honored for his role in preserving the nation during the Civil War and helping to free slaves. Others feel the holiday should only honor Washington, the country's first President. They say shifting the focus away from Washington would mean future generations of kids would not know about the Father of Our Country.
Laws have been introduced in Congress over the years to require use of the term "George Washington's Birthday," but none of those laws have passed. Meanwhile, many state governments and school districts now use the term "Presidents' Day." Many stores also use it to promote holiday sales.
Should the holiday honor Washington, Washington and Lincoln, or all past Presidents? Vote in the poll below.

New Zealand's net migration loss slowed last year, despite the lure of a brighter future across the Tasman which continued to attract kiwis.
The country reported a net outflow of migrants for a second calendar year, with annual net migration of negative 1,165 in 2012 from 1,855 in 2011, according to Statistics New Zealand. The slowdown came against a backdrop of some 38,800 more people jumping across the Tasman to Australia, even as the mining boom starts winding down. The UK, China and India provided a net inflow of more than 15,000 people.
"Net immigration was weaker than expected in December, breaking a three month run of positive inflows," said Westpac Banking economist Felix Delbruck in a note. "It's too soon to say if the recent improving trend has stalled - this may just be monthly volatility."
Today's figures also showed flat visitor arrival numbers, with the number of short-term visitors falling 0.1 per cent to 364,000 in December and down 1.4 per cent to 2.56 million on an annual basis.
The number of Chinese visitors climbed 35 per cent on the year, with Asian arrivals up 11 per cent to 511,000.
European visitors fell an annual 14 per cent to 406,000, while Australian arrivals were flat on the year at 1.16 million.
The figures also showed more New Zealanders were taking advantage of the strong kiwi dollar, with more overseas trips. International trips by locals rose 4 per cent to 2.17 million in 2012, with the biggest increase in the number of travelers heading to the US. The kiwi recently traded at 83.90 US cents.

Jeg anbefaler denne leiligheten veldig godt plassert i Manhattan. Det er romslige, vi var 7 personer. Beskrivelsen er i overensstemmelse med virkeligheten. Ingen grunn til bekymring for å hente nøkler, wifi fungerer ... Liten minst ett bad for fire soverom dette er for lite, og to av rommene har utsikt over den lille gårdsplassen ikke veldig rent. Ellers hyggelig opphold ....
Je conseille cet appartement très bien situé dans Manhattan. Il est spacieux, nous étions 7 personnes. La description est conforme à la réalité. Aucun soucis pour récupérer les clefs, le wifi fonctionne ... Les petits moins, 1 salle de bain pour 4 chambres c'est trop peu et 2 des chambres ont une vue sur la minuscule cour intérieur pas très propre. Sinon agréable séjour ....
Hei. Vi var 2 familier som reiste sammen til New York og hadde en fantastisk ferie. New York var så spennende og fantastisk som vi hadde håpet på. Vi bodde veldig sentralt og leiligheten var helt grei. Vi lagde en del mat selv i leiligheten og den kunne ha vært noe bedre utrustet. Vannet i dusjen gikk fra iskaldt til veldig varmt. Gikk greit og hente nøkkelen som lå 12 gater unna der vi bodde. Ellers hadde vi ingen kontakt med verten bortsett fra noen meldinger før avreise. Vi savnet nok litt mer informasjon fra verten ang. leiligheten , men totalt var oppholdet topp.
Windu is the most expensive website to rent an apartment on the face of the earth. Based on an email sent by CityKit (Management Company of the property) the actual cost of the apartment was $2001.00 for 7 days but we paid to Windu 2,421.21. This means 420 (20%) commission. Making this type of commission could be typical in the industry but letting the client to find out about it is very unprofessional. Hiding key information like the location of the apartment is no very professional either (third floor without elevator) Later we realized the apartment was in poor shape and not properly maintained, CityKit totally ignored our request for simple things missing like extra cover and linen for the sofa bed or to send a technician to fix a huge leak on the bathroom sink. Definitely I won't recommend Wimdu to a friend.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
Very good location and good size apartment with all the necessities for our party of 8 people. Quite a few restaurants nearby and a subway station just down the street. We had a problem with the radiators that wouldn't stop heating and one of them had a broken knob. We called the agency who were very nice and helpful and sent a man to fix it - it didn't help though... Also it was litterally painful to shower in the apartment because of the water temperature that was constantly changing between either ice cold or burning hot, and that caused us quite a bit of frustration during our stay.
Besides from that the apartment was very nice and clean and with plenty of towels and we enjoyed our stay!
The location of the apartment (Thompson Street/Houston Street) is very good, subway stations are quite nearby and there are lots of supermarkets, shops and restaurants in the neighborhood.
The flat is located on the 3rd floor which is not very convenient with luggage because there is no elevator; unfortunately it could have been cleaner.
This apartment is very compact and 4 flight up (no lift). The beds and pillows are not comfortable and need to be replaced. The hot water supply to the shower is irregular and in winter having cold showers is not pleasant. I would not recommend this apartment to anyone with children or over the age of 50. The location is excellent but it does not offset the negatives.
The location is excellent. In a quieter area but still very close to the hustle and bustle. The subway is just a few minutes walk. Central Park and MoMA are a short walk.
Apartment is decent size for the price. Having two bedrooms separate from living room is nice.
One downside is street noise b/c it is ground level, but we knew that going into it. Just bring some earplugs if you're a light sleeper.
The only bad thing is we discovered our last night that there were cockroaches in the kitchen.... not sure if this apartment is sprayed regularly.
Fantastic Apartment. Just what was required for our week in New York. Very clean and spacious and in a great part of the city.
Warning to everyone interested in this appartment! We whare really disappointed when one day before arrival, and I have had personally contact with David that all was ok according to arrival, we got info to change appartment 17 hours before arriving to NY. Payment was done, in good time. We got a replacement app, bot not in the same quality acc to pictures.:-(

Greets thomas
Where do I start? The location of Jean Michel's apartment is absolutely perfect, a few mins walk from the Louvre and Pyramides metro.
It's in a beautiful old building in a lively but safe neighbourhood, with some fantastic Japanese restaurants nearby.
The apartment itself is large (for a Paris studio) and well maintained. A comfy bed, kitchen with everything you need, spotlessly clean walk-in shower, and a cute little terrace with flowers.
Jean Michel was a friendly and gracious host.
We will be back!
Jean Michel is a great host.
We waited with champagne, and was worried about every detail of our stay permanently.
We highly recommend your apartment.
Just great!
Thank you for all Jean Michel!!
The flat is clean and furnished with taste, the kitchen very well equipped, so we felt at home. The location in a quiet street in the very centre is perfect, and many attractions such as Louvre and Opera are within short walking distance. The host is very kind and hospitable; he answered all our questions by email and advised us well on how to travel from the airport. He also gave us information about the nearest shops, taxis and a metro map. He really cares about his guests and the accommodation he offers is good value for money.
5 out of 5!
Amazing apartment, in the heart of Paris! Would highly recommend staying there! Jean Michael, the owner was extremely helpful throughout the whole process, from recommending airport transport to local restaurants. He even left a bottle of champagne in the fridge for us which was a lovely surprise and great to toast our arrival in Paris.... (thank you)
The apartment was spacious and just what we needed. It had a kitchen and washing machine which added to the comfort of our stay. The metro was a short walk, which connected you to the rest of the city.
Look no further and book this apartment :)
Very nice apartment with all you may need for an excellent stay in Paris! On 'walking distance' of city centre and all the things you should see when you are in Paris. The host Jean Michel is a real host and makes you feel very welcome. Thank you again Jean Michel! Chapeau!
We enjoyed our stay in Paris and this lovely studio very much. The apartment is located in a very interesting and central quarter. It's perfectly equipped and absolutely quiet. Even though we didn't meet our host personally he cared perfectly for our comfort - with all information we needed and a very kind welcome. We highly recommend this accomodation. If you get the chance to rent it - do it! Thanks again to Jean Michel!
Perfect location to stay in Paris..next to opera and the louvre ,walking distance to all famous landmark,Could not have picked a better apartment..Very clean and have everything you need for Your stay...love the sunny balcony..Jean michel,thank you..you are the best host..Merci
This apartment was perfect for 2. We loved the location, facilities, decor and ambience. We stayed for a week and it was great to have the small terrace to sit out on. The washing machine was very handy as we had been travelling for weeks and needed to wash most of our clothes. Supermarkets and everything you need within close proximity. We will be back!

A cast party is a party after the closing of a theatrical production which for the most part satisfies the three major vices: sex, drugs, and alcohol. And it doesn't end until well into the next day. Although there aren't many who don't succumb to the vices, they're still free to attend and still have fun.
Person A: You going to the cast party tonight?
Person B: Yeah, I'm gonna get fucked up.
Person B: Yeah, I'm gonna get fucked up.

Beaches of Kauai
While known for its impressive cliffs, canyons and rainforests, Kauai also has some of Hawaii's most picturesque beaches. Eighty kilometres of white sand surround Kauai, and many of these beaches provide intimate atmospheres away from the crowds.
During the winter, swells and currents on the North Shore can increase, so use caution and heed warning signs when swimming.
Anini Beach Park: Features kilometres of white sandy beach. A quiet lagoon created by a reef is perfect for beginning snorkellers. Facilities are available but there are no lifeguards.
Kee Beach: Found at the end of Highway 560, the reefs here make for great shoreline snorkelling. Kee Beach is also ideal for sunbathing. This is where you'll find the trailhead for the Napali Coast's Kalalau Trail. Lifeguards on duty.
Lumahai Beach: Among the most beautiful beaches on the island, with a wide sandy shoreline, this is where Mitzi Gaynor "washed that man right out of my hair" in the film "South Pacific". Since there is no lifeguard and currents are strong, swimming is not recommended.
Lydgate Beach Park: Protected from the open ocean by a lava rock wall, the snorkelling lagoon at Lydgate is a popular place for keiki (children). Public toilets, picnic grounds and lifeguards are available at this East Side beach.
Kalapaki Beach: A favourite spot to watch Kauai surfers and offering calm waters for keiki (children), Kalapaki fronts the Marriott Kauai's Beach Club.
South Shore Beaches:
Poipu Beach Park: With crystal clear waters and occasional Hawaiian monk seal appearances, Poipu Beach Park is one of Kauai's most popular beaches. Poipu also has a natural wading pool for young swimmers. Lifeguards, picnic facilities, showers and pavilions make this a great beach for the family on the South Shore.
West Side Beaches:
Salt Pond Beach Park: Located near Hanapepe on the West Side, this inviting park is a great place for relaxing, swimming and sunbathing. During the summer, generations of Hawaiian families have produced natural sea salt here. Lifeguards and facilities available.
Kekaha Beach: This long, sandy beach is a great place for sunbathing. This is also a local surf spot, but be cautious when swimming because of strong currents. Ask the lifeguard on duty about conditions.

Redskins fans are like cicadas.....
They only come out once every 13 years or so....they make a lot of noise and then die. Rinse and repeat.
I guess this was the time for infestation.
Let's put the women and children to bed and go lookin' for dinner
We get upset at our team because we feel that they have the talent to be a consistent force year in and year out over the past 5 years, but that they don't play up to their potential.
There's a chance that the Giants will be at the bottom of the division one day because it's impossible to stay up or near top every year, but then again with the quality of our ownership, our front office, and our coaches that may not necessarily be the case. The Steelers and Pats are a superior team year in and year out, so there's a good chance that the Giants will be as well. For like the next 20 years.

ANY1 Knows how to get rid of captcha ??

ANY1 Knows how to get rid of captcha ??
I get it on every build even if my time difference is 2mins
I get it on all marches even though i am not using those bots,tools.......
Nitesh if you are playing on one of the new "Enhanced Domains" the captcha is there to stay... I have now sent in several tickets to kabam about the captcha and how annoying it is to have to do them. All i can suggest is send in tickets to customer service ( or what they CALL customer service, more like customer dis-service, non-service, anti-service, ect.). Maybe if enough people flood them with tickets and complaints they'll do something about it. The last response i got from my ticket said they were reducing the number of times you would have to put the captcha in..... I'm still putting it in 100% of the time and i am not using autos.
I am totally building manually and constantly getting captcha and security messages within seconds of responding to them and getting fed up.. I am building manually and this is crap.. Kabaam needs to get their glitches and other stuff fixed and stop worrying about people using tools and bots and scripts or whatever. This is getting to be a pain. AND they need to address all these crappy rumors about domains shutting down, mergers,etc, etc, losing players in faithful domains daily.
AMEN autumn, but I am getting them on old domain.. pain in the butt
the captcha only comes when you click on share to your FB-wall, you can avoid the captcha by clicking the box to share away and still get your alli to help you on your build, but you only get half the possible help.
I play 4 domains 1 has 8 cities building of course I have high traffic at times have all 4 domains in windows at the same time get a grip
I get on everything fed up of writing
Kabam are idiots, they don't run captcha against individual domains they run it against your IP address that means if you are playing on more than 1 domain the chances of this external bot attacking you is enhanced exponentially. The easiest way to reduce captcha is to cut down your domains, which of course is counter productive for kabam because that cuts their chances of you spending on gems. Unfortunately they are not bothered, it would seem, about keeping customers, and as such will continue to harrass their customers for having the audacity to use the inbuilt raid function and to manually build cities. The new so called premier domains of course had a big problem of their own making 8 cities could be started in no time at all and with all the little builds this continually meant captchas and lock outs for all and has only been allieviated by people such as my self leaving the domain forever and cutting the amount of traffic.
oh well, i'll just stop playing in the enhanced domains bye kabam poof!
i am having the same issue. its so frustrating i don't even want to play. i too have sent a ticket. especially when im not sending out anything but raids so what the heck?

Looks very nice inside and out. Not really that much different in appearance, but I like the somewhat more rounded look and overall larger vehicle.http://www.motorauthority.com/cars/volvo/volvo%e2%80%99s-new-v70-wagon/#gallery/volvo/v70/v70_back.jpg

The rounder, sleeker look works well for this auto...I prefer it to the older, slightly blocky styling of the last one.
The interior is beautiful. I love the integrated child booster seats.Why does the Nav screen look like it pops up crooked? It doesnt looks straight at all.The profile & angle shots make the car look very masculine and sporty, though i am not in love with the front or back. I still think the current S40 is the most attractive.
Check out those seats! I really like the interior, nice simple layout, looks like high quality materials were used.As for the exterior, I love the rear end, and the headlights remind me of a Subaru for some reason...which isn't a bad thing.Overall, looks very impressive.

The front overhang is outta control! Love the interior though.
It looks more like a Legacy now which, i suppose, is the market they want to get.
My wife has said she wants to ditch the SUV for a V70 or XC70 when the lease is up. I think I could live with this. Funny, just over a year ago she had to have an SUV.

Reviews of this property
I have just spent almost 3 months in this apartment. It was a very nice experience. The apartment is small but has everything you need and the location is perfect. Sara was always responsive to my questions and requests. I also have to say that Victor (the King of the Street) was always helpful and available.
I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Lisbon!
Pros: exactly as pictured, clean and modern, with functioning kitchen including dishwasher. The coffee and tea supplies were a wonderful touch. There are two little stores outside the door where you can buy anything from onions, eggs to beer and sandwiches. We also pre-arranged (for 20 euros) to be picked-up from the airport as there were 4 of us, including 2 small kids, with 3 bags, and it was the best to do for first time experience in Lisbon. Victor, the owner of one of the stores on the street, met us and whisked us across the city right to the door of the apartment. This is a great feature as the immediate neighbourhood is closed off to non-resident traffic? A taxi will get you there too. The neighbourhood is lovely with narrow windy and steep streets typical for old Lisbon. Within short walking distance you'll find everything you need, a gorgeous viewpoint, local restaurants, McDonald's, trendy farmers market, supermarket, train station, buses, tram, and a little farther Comercio square and downtown.
Cons: noisy until the early morning especially Thursday, Friday and Saturday for socializing and parties, and Monday/Tuesday for the garbage trucks. We handled it by closing the doors and using earplugs. The air conditioning is only available in the bedroom, which get plenty of wind, it would have been helpful to have a fan for the living room for when we had to shut the windows.
We had a lovely stay would stay here again. Thank you!
This was a very good choice. Everything was all right- location, equipment in the appart,nice view from the window.ment. The stay was very pleasant-clean and nice appartment, big enough for two or even three, we didnt use air condition, there was no need to use it. Good and pretty neighbourhood, It is a good choice to the take the car from the airport- its 20 euro, there were no disadventages.
Perfect stay in a perfect apartment! Unbeatable location; we barely used the metro to see the city. Wonderful bars, cafes and restaurants on almost every corner. Rooms, as well as the bathroom and the kitchen were immaculate clean and wi-fi worked perfectly. The owners gave us a ride from the metro station to the apartment upon our arrival, which was very kind, as our plane landed late in the evening, plus it was delayed. Overall, a very positive experience. Highly recommended!
charming apartment with all the comfort.
very well located procimite immediate Bairro Alto.
Breakfast available and really very pleasant, I will return very happy during my next stay.
appartement charmant avec tout le confort necessaire.
tres bien situé a procimite immediate de bairro altO.
hotes disponibles et vraiment tres agreables, j'y retournerai tres volontiers lors de mon prochain sejour.
Good reception, nice apartment and a great location!
Goede ontvangst, leuk appartement en een prima locatie!
Small, nice and well kept property in a central location. On the next trip to Lisbon, we love coming back. The hosts have at departure even dropped us at the train station - very friendly!
Kleine, schöne und gepflegte Wohnung in zentraler Lage. Bei der nächsten Reise nach Lissabon kommen wir sehr gerne wieder. Die Gastgeber haben uns bei der Abreise sogar am Bahnhof abgesetzt - sehr freundlich!
The apartment is nice and compact. It is located in a quiet neighborhood (close to a cozy space that is very popular with local young students). The apartment is within walking distance to downtown and the festive Bairro Alto, and you can quickly take a tram if your legs are tired. The only real criticism of the apartment's bed facilities are not quite at the top ('sofa' is very hard and the springs are very present).
Lejligheden er fin og kompakt. Den ligger i et roligt kvarter (tæt på en hyggelig plads, der er meget populær hos lokale unge studerende). Lejligheden ligger i gåafstand til centrum og det mere festlige Bairro Alto, og man kan hurtigt tage en sporvogn, hvis benene er trætte. Den eneste rigtige kritik af lejligheden er sengefaciliteterne, som ikke helt er i top ('sovesofaen' er særdeles hård og fjedrene er meget nærværende).
Beautiful centrally located in Bairo Alto with many possibilities for activities. Apartment and support by Americo extremely nice.
Schöne zentrale Unterkunft im Bairo Alto mit vielen Möglichkeiten für Unternehmungen. Appartment und Betreuung durch Americo ausgesprochen nett.
Apartment cozy and functional, ultra clean, and well located. The owner was charming and accommodating, we could leave our luggage until the last minute. Very good experience!
Appartement très cosy et fonctionnel, ultra propre, et bien situé.
Le propriétaire était charmant et arrangeant, nous avons pu laisser nos bagages jusqu'à la dernière minute. Très bonne expérience !

text: I recently received a stern lecture from my doctor about my blood pressure, "bad" cholesterol and blood sugar all being too high (way too high in the case of my blood sugar - the word "prediabetes" was used and that definitely got my attention!) I am a 45 year old female otherwise in good health. I have started walking on a treadmill. Over the last seven weeks I have worked up to 45 to 50 minutes on the treadmill, incline 8.0 and speed between 3.5 and 3.7 (a brisk walk for me). I do this at least five times a week. The exercise has definitely had a positive impact on my mood, and my clothes feel a bit looser. I don't know if I have actually lost any pounds - my doctor would like me to lose 40 pounds. I am not weighing myself yet because in the past I have found that to be discouraging. For now, I am going by how I feel and I must say I feel more energetic and happier overall. What treadmill speed, incline and duration would you recommend to address these health concerns? My main concern is to get my "numbers" back down with the hope that the weight will take care of itself. How long should I wait before having the blood tests done again to measure any improvement? I don't want to look for improvement too soon and get discouraged. I am prepared to be patient and am giving myself one year - after all, it took me about 20 years of inactivity to get this way! I'm trying not to kick myself too much but I do feel down on myself for having let this happen. Any tips and encouragement would be very much appreciated.

1.800.555.8260 We're here to help
As a registered member, you'll be able to:
is it possible to connect four speakers to a head unit, then the head unit to a mono amp, which the mono has an RCA output where I can possibly connect it to a two channel amp for my 6x9's. is this possible or would all speaker need to be connected to a 4 channel amp. I'm not trying to have 3 amps in my car cause. Im trying to us two only where the fronts can work with the head unit as well as 6x9 to a 2 channel which is connect to the mono and not the head unit. haha. pretty confusing
i might opt out on the 6x9 I'm not too sure yet. I have a 4 channel but it's my friends. so I'm not to sure yet. I might use that and run the 4 speakers in parallel or series to 2 channels and then the 6x9 to the other 2 channels.
it seems doable, but i'm not sure you'd want to.
what HU do you have? what is the mono amp? does it only have one set of RCA jacks? if it's got one dedicated for sub, i'd run that to your mono amp and a full-range output to the other. otherwise you will have no ability to adjust the relative volume between your sub amp and your 6x9's from the HU. that would bum me out.
jvc kd hdr44, alpine mrx-m100 mono, and sound ordinance m2100 2 channel amp. the jvc head unit has 2 RCA ports but if I use the one for speakers I think I might not be receiving sound from the head unit. I'm trying to get the 6x9 to work from the SO amp which is being ran through the alpine RCA out put port.
OK, use the 2 rear speaker wire outputs from the head to the front speakers. Use the front RCA output from the head to the S/O amp. This will cause your fader to work in reverse, but is your best option. Set the rear/SW RCA output to 'SW' in the head audio settings. Use that RCA output to your Alpine amp. Turn on highpass and lowpass filters. The highpass filter is fixed. You should set the lowpass filter on 85 hz. This is all in your head audio settings. It is preferable to use the crossover (highpass and lowpass) settings of the head. Do you have the instruction manual to the head ? Set the LP filter on the Alpine amp above 85. Set the X-over on the S/O amp on 'full'. Do you need help with setting the amp gains ?
I know how to do the amp gains. but if I do it that way. will all six speakers work.
OK, sorry. I thought you were saying you had 2 front speakers and then 6x9's in the rear. Use the 4 speaker wire outputs from your head to the 4 regular speakers, then everything else as above. Front RCA output to the S/O amp, S/O amp to 6x9's. Rear/SW RCA output set to 'SW' and connected to Alpine amp, Alpine amp to subs. Yes, all 4 full range speakers will work this way, but the 6.9's might be too loud to hear the other 4. If the 6x9's are in boxes, your soundstage will benefit if they are mounted in front. What are the other 4 speakers ?
6 1/2 kickers ds series
What are the 6x9's ?
same kickers ds series
If it was my vehicle, and all 4 - 6.5" speakers were mounted in factory locations, I would sell the 6x9's and wire the 6.5" speakers in parallel, 2 to the left output, 2 to the right output of the S/O amp. This will give the amp a 2 ohm load and the speakers ~50 watts RMS each. You won't be able to fade front to rear, and your fader should be set full front, but I think your soundstage will be much better. If you do this, be sure and disconnect the speaker wire outputs from the head and tape them off. What vehicle is it ?
1999 Subaru legacy b4 in Japan
Another option is to sell the Kicker 6x9's AND the 2 channel amp and buy a 4 X 50-75 watts RMS amp for the 4 - 6.5" Kickers. The only thing the 6x9's offer besides more power handling is more bass, and you have the subwoofer for that.
What amp is the 4 channel ?
Seriously, it's hard to understand why you want the 6x9's when you have the 4 - 6.5's mounted in the stock locations.
You could just disconnect the rear 6.5's and use the 4 channel for the front 6.5's and the 6x9's. Not sure why, tho. You have the 4 - 6.5's for the mids and highs. The 6x9's are only going to do the same. The sub(s) for anything lower. Are the 6x9's in boxes ?
to be honest, I don't know why i want to connect the 6x9's. haha. but I figured im probably goin to leave them out. I might just keep them till I figure out a use for them or probably sell them. I thought since there is 6 speakers (stock) in the car I would replace them. I appreciate the help tho
There is 1 speaker in each door = 4 6.5" speakers, or 1 in each front door and 2 in the rear deck = 4 speakers or 1 X 4 doors and 2 in the rear deck for 6 speakers ? If it's the latter, are all the stock speakers 6.5" ? Is it a sedan or station wagon ?
Because my name is on the business, I work hard to make sure you get the best possible shopping experience. I look forward to hearing your comments .

I am new to this bee web forum and actually new to beekeeping. I am starting out with 4 hives this spring on my farm and am planning to practice sustainable/natural beekeeping. I would appreciate any contact with other beekeepers in the area. I have gone to 2 different bee club meetings, one was almost 2 hrs away though and their members are all quite a distance from me. The other club was about an hour away which I just recently visited with and it seems like with those I've met we are geographically challenged.
I am about 15 miles north of Uniontown and about 8 miles west of Connellsville in Fayette County, which is SE of Pittsburgh.
I still have 2 other bee clubs to visit that are in the greater region. I plan to go to their next meeting in April. They are about 1 hr and 1/2 or so travel distance.
So I thought I'd try this forum to see if there is any folks out there in the area.
Many thanks,

UTSA Mariachi Ensemble serenades Administrative Support Toolbox
graduates at special Fiesta celebration
UTSA administrative staff honored at special event
By Judy Verdon
Training and Development Specialist, Office of Human Resources
(May 13, 2009)--While San Antonio celebrated Fiesta, so did the UTSA Office of Human Resources Training and Development with the recent Fiesta-themed third annual celebration for graduates of the Administrative Support Toolbox Series. The recognition event highlighted the accomplishments of the 17 most recent graduates of the six-part series, along with other UTSA staff who attended one or more classes in the series.
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy

The Fiesta-themed celebration included Mexican food, group activities and a graduation ceremony with the presentation of certificates of achievement. Members of the UTSA Mariachi Ensemble added a bonus to the program as they serenaded the graduates and other guests.
The April 22 special event coincided with the annual National Administrative Professionals Day, recognizing the vital contributions of administrative professionals throughout the United States. The UTSA event centered on the theme, "VIVA los Admins," with VIVA standing for "valuable, important, vital assistants."
The Administrative Support Toolbox Series consists of six classes that focus on key functional areas carried out by UTSA administrative staff. The classes provide a high-level overview of the functions, services and resources of each area. Subject matter experts from each of the six areas present important and useful information to class participants. The series runs on a six-month cycle with one class monthly. This allows administrative professionals to attend class as their schedules permit and to complete the series according to their own timelines.
The recent graduates of the Administrative Support Toolbox Series are:
- Wanda Crotty
- Hope De Leon
- Laura Earleywine
- Lillie Ferrand
- Virginia Galloway
- Susan Geyer
- Viki Harden
- Henrietta Loriaux
- Chyloe Martin
- Denni McCarter
- Steven Mitchell
- Teresa Pena
- Angela Prescher
- Candace Schlueter
- Edward Summerville
- Blane Walter
- Cynthia White
The Administrative Support Toolbox Series begins again May 19 with the Administrative Support Orientation class. The other classes in the series -- Financial Processing, Communications, Supervisory Skills, Academic and Student Processing, and Human Resources -- follow from June to October.

KEY LARGO -- Two planned Subway sandwich shops will add the franchise's presence to the island of Key Largo.
The first was expected to open this week in Waldorf Plaza at Mile Marker 99, oceanside.
A Pennsylvania company is adding that location to its small stable of Upper Keys businesses -- the other being Salon 905.
The new business, based in half of the former Blockbuster location, is expected to offer 10 to 15 part-time jobs and five full-time jobs. The company is now looking to fill those positions, said co-owner Josh Gibson.
Some remaining equipment and a final inspection were the only things the group was still awaiting, Gibson said last week.
Meanwhile, the Tom Thumb gas station at Mile Marker 97.9 is under construction and will have new offerings when it reopens in a few month.
Instead of four pumps, the station will have 12, according to documents filed with the Monroe County Planning Department. A 3,100-square-foot canopy is also under construction.
In addition to tripling the number of pumps, the fuel station will also open a Subway sandwich shop.
The new Subway shops will mark the third and fourth on the island. The others are located at Mile Markers 91 and 106.

Auralism is a sexual fetish defined as sexual arousal or excitment caused by sound, to be compared with voyeurism. This sound might be music, a voice, the actual sounds of sex itself, or other sounds, and may include enjoyment from listening to others having sex. As with most fetishes, in some cases it is simply a small additional turn-on, and in others it is a requirement to sexual gratification.
Since the sound of her lover's voice in her ear made her groan with pleasure and get weak in the knees, he defined the word auralism just to describe her fetish, which until then, didn't seem to have a name.

Happy? Very. Great pistol for the money. In fact, I've yet to find a better centerfire pistol for under $250.
Yes, seems to have held up quite well for the 350 rounds put through so far. Of course, this is just a drop in the bucket...
Obviously nothing has needed to be replaced.
No way would I go with a more expensive .380, and I used to have a Sig 230 a long time ago. That 230 was the most reliable automatic I've ever had (~1500 rounds at 100%), but I wouldn't buy a new one at twice the price of a T380. IOW, if I were going to spend that much money, it sure as heck wouldn't be on a .380 (unless it's a Seecamp).

Hi all. :w
I am a newbie beek from Arkansas. I've been reading about beekeeping for about a year now and am ready to jump in. The knowledge on this site has been a huge help.
I have some friends that are going to teach me the ropes. I have found someone that needs to sell their already establised hives and I am going to purchase 8 of them. We have about 160 acres to set them on.
I am going to be getting:
1 bottom board
1 hive body
1 super
inner and outer lids
1 queen excluder
All for $150 each after the state inspector checks out the hives to make sure they are disease free.
Does this sound like a fair price?

1 March 2015
Information about Work Capability Assessments has now moved
Atos Healthcare exited our contract with Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to deliver Work Capability Assessments (WCA) at the end of February 2015.
The new provider is known as Centre for Health and Disability Assessments and is delivering the service on behalf of MAXIMUS. Click here to go to the Centre for Health and Disability Assessments website.
The changes will not affect your benefit claim or payments and you should continue to attend any appointments as usual. The procedures for claiming any of the benefits that require an assessment have not changed.
If you have a form, letter or query that still refers to Atos Healthcare at the time the changes are introduced after 1 March 2015 there is no need to request new documentation. Centre for Health and Disability Assessments will have the details of any appointments that had been booked for you and arrangements are in place to ensure that Centre for Health and Disability Assessments will have all of the necessary information transferred to them. This also applies to any queries you might have about past appointments that you had with us. We no longer have access to case files relating to specific referrals and therefore would be unable to look into your query.
If you are claiming Industrial Injuries Benefit (IIDB) and are due for reassessment, Centre for Health and Disability Assessments will be able to assess your IIDB claim.
Atos Healthcare continues to deliver Personal Independence Payment (PIP) assessments in most parts of the UK. Information about these can be found in the PIP section of this website.

EBAY is being good to me! I just won a Nemrod holster. Sorry if I outbid anyone.

EBAY is being good to me! I just won a Nemrod holster. Sorry if I outbid anyone.
Well aren't you on a roll!!!! :lol Nicely done!!! How much did you have to go????
$150, but I also got the spear gun,(I know it is not a Fett item, but it is cool) A bit more than I wanted to spend, but taxes were good to me this year, so I went for it, you only live once right! So, not to brag but in the last week on ebay, I got the holster, the MQ-1, and original metal scope rings! I feel extremely lucky, especially since they were the only auctions I have taken part in for the last few years. Hows MN weather? Sure was cold when I was there in January...
Weather up here sux man!!!!! LOl We got hit with annother winter storm again...no travel!! having fun on my snowmobile though!!!
not a bad price on your stuff though!!! I think I paid $130 for my holster, but its got the wrong hold down strap. I'd be very happy with your purchase!!!! I've seen those holsters/spearguns go for $175 + before!!
Whats next on your list??? Real Webley??? ;) Just kiddin!! :) You are off to a good start!! ;)
Nice snag, I was watching it on ebay but didn't bid. It was on ebay last week but was taken off and then put back on with Boba Fett in the description. I guess someone told the seller he had a piece of gold so he relisted it hoping to get more?
I would love to have a real Webley, but $$$. Maybe someday. The Pulce 40 would be great too! I got some scuba buddies searching for me, but talk about a needle in a haystack! I also have some sound tech, and DJ guys looking for Michell turntable parts for me. I figure, talk to people that are in the fields that relate to the parts, and in LA, you meet people from all walks, especially working at a nightclub.

This entry was created from multiple kits by Rowandean mounted in a book designed and stitched by this needleworker.
You'll find this Lizzie Kate design here.
Note: I have one more piece that I'm trying to finish now that should be added to this Customer Gallery. If I get it done by the first of the week I'll put it up and send out a note that it's here.
A special thanks to all the great stitchers who allow me to share these works with you. We have some of the most talented stitchers around and this is just a sampling of their work. The Customer Gallery is presented to you every July so plan to put one of your pieces in the 2012 Customer Gallery.
Don't forget to come back and vote often!

The forced induction of a person into the armed forces. In the USA, this typically applies only to healthy young heterosexual males with low lottery numbers, non-exempt religions & poor political connections. Proponents of the draft cite advantages over a voluntary army: lower cost, ethnic diversity (but not gender), greater governmental reluctance to enter wars. These claims have yet to be documented however. Both Republicans & Democrats are split on this issue & will generally let public opinion guide them. Libertarians oppose the draft as mere time-share slavery, & lacking any of the claimed benefits.
The military draft appears to violate the US Constitution's prohibition against involuntary servitude.

The very well kept natural garden is a green oasis of relax with olive; lemon; almond and orange trees, garden patches and a small area of lawn (about 15m2). There is also a mobile BBQ in the garden. The plot is fenced. There are also chickens in the garden, but they are housed in their own hen coop. The house owners will take care of the animals. There are 3 terraces, one in front of the house with 45m2, other one behind it with about 25m2 and the third one which is situated on the side front of the villa with a size of 32m2. The last terrace has access to the kitchen. The advantage of having a few terraces is that you could choose whether you prefer sun or shade because one always lies in the sun, the other one has shade. The chlorine pool with a size of 3 meters x 7 meters is the perfect place for all the sun lovers and keen swimmers of you. There are 4 sun beds and 1 sunshade.
You enter the house and will be in the living-dining room, which is equipped with a cosy sofa, fireplace, satellite television and a table. The independent kitchen is fully equipped. Of course there is also a washing machine, an iron and ironing board. The whole house counts with WIFI. For the winter season, the house counts with central heating and a wonderful fireplace.
Important: please note that the villa is semi-detached – the owner's house is directly next to the villa. During the high season, July and August, the owners won't live there. During the rest of the year, the owners won't disturb you and won't use the pool while there are guests. If you wish to use the central heating, this has an extra cost.
The surroundings are beautiful and invite you to practice different kinds of sports like cycling, or jogging. Furthermore you will find lots of gorgeous hiking routes around the house. Don't forget to visit the springs "Ses Fonts Ufanes" near Campanet. In general, this natural spectacle starts after several days of rain and surely you will be impressed by the beauty of these extraordinary springs. Also, the small but authentic Majorcan villages Caimari, Selva, Orient, Alaró and Mancor de la Vall are worth visiting.

이 호스트의 또 다른 숙소후기
Its a fantastic Finca in the countryside of Mallorca but still very close to Santa Margalida. It has a beautiful, large and clean pool. The sourrounding yard is decorated with beautiful flowers. The house is decorated in an "old-fashion/classical" style and very cosy. The furniture in- and outside is very comfortable and solid - no plastic chairs or similar. The interior gives you everything you need: A huge fridge including 3 big ice buckets, a washing mashine, a barbeque on the terrace and a nice outside-couchplace. The kitchen provides any tool you´d need. Well, I could write a novel about the beauty of this place...
Last but not least we had very nice expirience with the daughter of the owner who visited us the second day in order to ask if everything is okay and to give some info about garbage and electronics.
To make a long story short: We had a fantastic stay and we will come back to this beautiful place a s soon as possible.

I have never seen a high point that functioned right. I've heard stories of people liking them but for the most part it's classed with weapons like Jennings, Bryco and the like.
Combine that with the brick like feel of the weapons and I wouldn't take one for free. I'm no gun snob at all. I do not think you have to pay a grand for a quality weapon. The several High Points I've seen were so poorly made that if you got a full mag to fire with no problems you were really cooking.

I saw a post from a Buckfast queen breeder but did not get your information. If you raise Buckfast queens from stock that you got from Ferguson please get with me. Thanks
I saw a post from a Buckfast queen breeder but did not get your information. If you raise Buckfast queens from stock that you got from Ferguson please get with me. Thanks
I sent you an email message conserning Buckfast Queens.
Myron Denny
Are they worth all the "buzz"? Anyone had experience with them?
Sonny - I'd suggest a quick Google search for the Wikipedia page on the Buckfast Abbey Bee. Lots of good info, like the 400 lbs of honey one colony produced, the 30 kilogram per colony average in adverse conditions that Brother Adam faced accomplishing this, and some on the ancestry and characteristics. I'd also suggest Brother Adam's books, Beekeeping at Buckfast Abbey, In Search of the Best Strains of Bees, and Breeding the Bee. ISBN's and info are posted on the Wikipedia page.
Always question Conventional Wisdom.
I do not have any Buckfast colonies or queens, I was just trying to help out. There was a discussion in the past about Buckfast breeders, this is the only breeder info I saw:
Miksa Honey Farms - (352) 429-3447 - Florida email@example.com
I sent an email last night to advise them of this inquiry with no responce to date.
i don't personally have any experience with buckfasts, but my local bee club is importing them from ontario
i would like to try some but they are $$$
i am sure that part of the 45$ cost is the international shipping and customs
who is ferguson?
Last edited by arrowwood; 02-17-2013 at 11:51 AM. Reason: correction
Ferguson Apiaries. They are Buckfast breeders that are located in Hensall, Ontario.
There a lot of good sites discussing Buckfasts - University of Guelph, Russell Apiaries, R Weaver Apiaries to name a few. Doc Russel asserts that there are no true Buckfasts (as of 2011) on this side of the Atlantic. The daughter queens often diverge from mamma's traits because Brother Adam used a 3-year breeding cycle that is likely not reproduced exactly over here. Read University of Guelph's site.
The thing to realize is that if you have conditions and needs that the Buckfast bees' traits satisfy well and are adapted to, then they will live up to all the "buzz" about them.
$45.00 is much cheaper than they were a couple of years ago to import. If you are interested in Buckfast you really should read up on them. There is a preservation group in both Denmark and GB, but the Abbey does not license or propagate them anymore so in all reality they don't exist. Brother Adam is dead and with him went the breeding program. Ferguson was the last licensed breeder to import new stock into North America and that was 20 or so years ago... so like it was mentioned above, they really do not exist here in a pure form.
Always question Conventional Wisdom.
It is doubtful that anyone other than the licensed Buckfast breeders are actually using his exact breeding methods, let alone if they have same level of isolation of the mating yards that Brother Adam had. Without the complete isolation that he enjoyed, some impurities in the strain are going to occur sooner or later. Good drone flooding and careful selection help, but once all the line is tainted, it takes intensive de-selection to remove an undesirable trait or group of traits. This is not guaranteed to work, nor a quick solution, nor economical for the queen producer.
If several of the people who were personally involved with Brother Adam and his Buckfast bloodline were to get involved with a solid I.I. breeding program and attempt to back-cross toward the original traits, as the Cobeys did with New World Carniolan line of bees (this took only 10 years - excellent progress rate, actually), the hope is there. In fact, a geneticist like Dr. Susan Cobey would be a great asset to such an effort. I'd love to do this myself, as I'm hoping to study under her at U.C. Davis soon, although I'm sure University of Guelph, and perhaps Mr. Ferguson are aware of this and all over it already.
Rumor is that the current "Buckfasts" are not as gentle as brother Adam's original Buckfasts. This could be due to people expecting that 2nd and 3rd generation descendant queens of an actual Buckfast queen should work just as well...they will not. I mention this just to be fair to the breed, as a licensed breeder - produced Buckfast queen would very likely compare quite favorably to a 3rd generation (or later) offspring bred with open mating in a non-flooded, non-isolated mating yard.
Last season was not good with regards weather for queen mating, but still managed to get some good mating later in the year on the isolated Dartmoor mating station, with three different lines.
These are some old lines being maintained by one breeder.
Many others and the Buckfast pedigrees can be seen here......
http://www.exmoorbeesandbeehives.co.uk/ Buckfast UK.
Pete - I apologize...the rumors I heard are for "Buckfasts" (probably stock descended from Buckfasts not using Bro. Adam's methods) here in the U.S.
does anyone know of a source force for northern raised buckfast queens for summertime ??
Above is their Website address, it lists an address and phone number.
Let us know if they are still selling Buckfast Queens.
I talked to Bill in January. He is still selling the Buckfast queens. Just needs to get the old web site updated he said.

Lauri Miller.
Carniolan Hybrids. Glenn & Wild lines.
thank you Myron. I only live 10 miles from Canada customs and I think there was a breeder about 1/2 hour from there. unfortunately the us homeland security [formerly customs] is on a big power trip. they are unpredictable and do not seem to know much. mostly they are interested in the generous government paycheck, at least that a couple of them have told me in private... I was hoping for a northern usa source.
Like Lauri said Bill (Ferguson Apiaries) sells Buckfast Queens. I usually order a few every year. I really like his Bees they are gentle, produce a good honey crop and over winter well. I usually graft from a few of my overwintered Buckfast colonies and open mate them with my local drone population. I have had some real nice queens come out of the mix!

Reviews of this property
Die Wohnung wird zwar hier auf der Plattform angeboten, wird aber über eine Reisegesellschaft vermietet, also nicht privat. Das wussten wir vorher nicht. Die uns zugewiesene Wohnung aus deren Kontingent war dreckig und eklig. Wir haben uns sofort nach Ankunft beschwert und es kam auch gleich die Putzfrau und hat die fleckige Bettwäsche gewechselt, die verschimmelten Gardinen weggeworfen (ohne Witz), die Übergardinen am nächsten Tag gewaschen und wieder aufgehängt. Der Hausmeister musste verschimmelten Silikon aus der Dusche entfernen und hat neuen drüber geschmiert. Eine Glühbirne hat er austauschen müssen, die nur noch geflackert hat. Das Geschirr war dreckig, in den Tassen waren noch Kaffeereste zu sehen. Alles in allem war die Wohnung alt und abgewohnt. Nach dem Einsprühen (von uns selbst) mit Febreze konnte man sich dann zumindest drin aufhalten. Wir waren sehr enttäuscht, weil die Anlage an sich sehr schön ist. Dafür den einen Stern.
Reviews for this host's other properties
The holydays in Club Vista serena, was very nice and confortable. A value quality and price appartments, nice service. Highly recoment
nice little house in suburb of sorrento.
well equipped kitchen and cosy living room.
couldn't stay in the huge garden because of too many moskitos.
garden wasn't very clean at all.
the linen package, we extra paid for, was a joke.
The people were very friendly, the studio offered everything you needed, the bed was comfy and the location was good, just 350 m to the beach. You had your own terrace and parking lot, which was great. It is a very quiet location, good to calm down and relax. For two persons it is very big, I was scared, but of course most of people would enjoy that luxury of lots of space. The accommodation definitely is a great choice for that price!
The location of the apartment was great and the size was excellant plus with a private parking space in France unbelievable. Downside was cleaning fee per person when the floors were SO dirty that you wouldn'd want to walk on them without shoes on.
Danielle was very helpful. The house, next to her family's home was very clean and comfortable. The view of the mountains was wonderful. we highly recommend Landhaus Wegscheider to anyone interested in traveling to the Innsbruck area.
Fab apartment, fab views. All amenities on our doorstep, would highly recommend this apartment, will definitely be booking again. (unfortunately there are no English TV channels so bring a book)
Beautiful view of the Zugspitz from a private patio. Pleanty of room for two couples with 2 bedrooms. Beds very comfortable. Clean with friendly service.
A group of five girls stayed here and it was fantastic! The views were spectacular the location was spot on couldn't fault the apartment it was spotless and the finishing touch of the towels made up as swans on each bed with small toiletries was a lovely touch. We picked up the keys early from the interhome office the lady was extremely helpful. Would highly recommend we will be using this apartment again on our next visit to benidorm. Thank you
perfect!! the host were so accomodating...nice flat with a private pool...100% coming back!

An ongoing discussion with customers about energy
How do we meet your energy needs reliably and responsibly, while integrating renewable power?
We all use energy every day, and we expect it to be at our fingertips when we flip a switch or set a thermostat. But what does it take to ensure that reliable energy is available when we want it, whether it's today or in 20 years?
Avista energy planning experts along with regional planning and regulatory leaders shared insights about meeting customer energy needs at Avista's most recent Powering Our Future event held on November 17 at CenterPlace in the Spokane Valley.
Customers participated in a mock planning exercise that put them in the shoes of a power supply planner for a northwest utility. Participants worked in small groups to build upon an existing portfolio of resources in order to meet energy needs of customers over the next 20 years. They were able to choose from a mix of resources such as solar, wind, coal, nuclear power, natural gas, conservation, biomass and hydroelectric power.
The hands-on experience in energy resource planning gave our guests an opportunity to gain real-time feedback about how their decisions could impact customers' bills, renewable energy mandates and Avista's ability to meet customers' demand for reliable energy supply.
"Energy for a Smart Future" events in Pullman and Spokane in early June 2011 focused on Avista's work to increase efficiency and reliability in the energy delivery system through our Smart Grid projects.
National smart grid expert Jesse Berst framed the discussion and Avista smart grid experts spoke about Avista's projects in Spokane and Pullman, which are aimed at increasing reliability for customers and piloting smart grid technologies.
You can view photos and a presentation (PDF) from the event.
These events were built on the success of the first Powering Our Future event held in October 2010 called "Energy Opportunities, Choices & Costs" which gathered more than 250 community members.
Materials from that event can be viewed here.
Speakers Available
If you're a member of a civic or community group, neighborhood council or association and would like Avista to come speak about resource planning, smart grid or other energy topics, please send an email with your request to email@example.com.

I want to take a moment and show you guys how to set up an affordable yet effective and powerful online video marketing campaign for your local or small business. So let's jump right into it. When it comes to video marketing for local and small businesses, most people don't know where to begin. They think they need to hire a videographer. They think they need to pay thousands of dollars for a video ad, and that's just not the case. And there are two problems I see with hiring a videographer.
One: they're going to come in and charge you thousands of dollars to produce one video ad.
Two: And the second problem is they're not going to know how to market that video. They're not going to know how to use that video to get you more customers, leads, sales or even Facebook likes and Yelp reviews.
And yes, all of those things are possible with the proper local and small business video marketing. And in this article I'm going to show you guys two tips on how you can get affordable yet powerful video ads made for your small or local business that will be less than half the price for hiring a videographer. And at the end of this article I'm going to give you guys one bonus tip on how to use those videos to get more Facebook likes. So be sure to stay tuned until the end.
And the first tip to get affordable, yet powerful and effective video ads for your local or small business is to find a company that will create video ads using your footage or photos. They can also create custom whiteboard animation videos and scribe videos that you can use to try to go viral with. There are companies out there that do not need to come in and film your business to create awesome and powerful, and effective video ads for your business.
They take your photos or video footage and combine it with professional music, on-screen text and a voice-over to create these effective video ads for a fraction of the cost of a videographer. Or they use that stuff and actually draw it all out as if it's on a whiteboard, and this in the end results in an incredible animation video in a "whiteboard style" type of video. And you may be asking, "Well, what companies do this?" I'll let you guys into a little secret. wizmotions.com does this! Alright, alright. Sorry for that shameless plug, but that is exactly what we do at wizmotions.com.
We create affordable and creative video ads for business owners who don't want to pay thousands of dollars to have a videographer come in. And you may be asking, "Do I need to send you top-quality HD video content?" The answer is no. You can send us regular photos taken with a still-shot camera or even video footage taken with your iPhone and we can create effective video ads from that. And wizmotions will be able to draw any of that with their artists. In fact, they even make these awesome lenses that you can put on your iPhone or Android that will allow you to capture top-quality HD video content right from your phone. If you guys are interested, you can check out this one right here.

Hey guys. I have been working on this for a while and I was hoping for some feedback from other Giants fans on what they think.
I'm sure everyone can figure out the gist of it, but basically it's all 24 tickets from last season, including the preseason, with a 16x20 Steiner autographed photo of Eli in the center.
The home tickets were easy, especially being that I am a season ticket holder. In some cases finding some of the road games required posting on other teams message boards in order to track them down. It wasn't easy.
The only thing I can't decide is if I like the red matte, being that I ordered it with blue as the primary color. I actually think it may 'pop' a little more like this.
Overall, it's about the best momento I could think of putting together for my single favorite season of all time.
So, wadda ya guys think of it?
