Salaries certainly are one part of the huge budget problem that we are faced with. And it is the taxpayers and the students who are standing on the frontlines. They will suffer the most. We in Essex County live in a poverty-ridden state with little chance for that to change very much in the future. We MUST stop living in Albany's fairytale world. We have no choice but to look our financial reality straight in the face, and adjust our spending accordingly. THIS INCLUDES teacher salaries and ALL benefits.
The NYS Teacher's Union (aka Cuomo) advocate for the teachers, and it is done with a lot of political clout and vey successfully!(They also have tenure, which has been and continues to be a very bad and very old destructive idea.)
Administrators are overpaid, ineffective, and at the very least non-productive "managers." Ineffective because they are typically schooled badly and they are not effective, creative or tough managers--they are not trained to be.
If you have concerns re: school administration, do yourself a favor and read the following. It is worth the time!

"Please Clarify": I meant to say unsupported. Sorry for the typo.
"Teach": I find your words to be hurtful. Please do not tell me to leave the profession that I love. I do not teach in Ticonderoga, but the reasons that led me to choose not to return home had nothing to do with trying to find a spouse, or the lack of entertainment,(but why would it be wrong for me to want friends my own age to do things with, and an outlet for entertainment on the weekend that doesn't involve going to the bar or drinking?)and my reasons especially had nothing to do with the poverty level. My school district may be better off financially than Ti, but we are by no means wealthy and we certainly have kids from families that face huge financial struggles. I decided to teach because I gained so much from the Ti school district, and I felt like it was the right things for me to use my talents to give that kind of experience to future students. I care deeply for the kids I work with, and I want them to succeed and have opportunities in the future. I wanted to return to Ti but I didn't even apply, simply because it seems like no one ever has a kind word to say about the school. I didn't want to teach in a place where much of the community would bad mouth and constantly attack me over my job and the pay that I earn (because trust me, teachers certainly earn it.) I don't think it is wrong to want to work in a place where you know that those around you (in this case both at work and in the community) support your efforts. It makes it so much easier to give up my lunch period to work with a student when I know that people appreciate and support what I am doing, something that I wasn't sure I would get in Ti. I follow your budgets because I still know a large number of people in Ti, many of whom have kids in the school. I follow them because I want all the kids from Ti to be able to get an education and have a huge range of opportunities available to them. My concern is that if we constantly bash our teachers (and let such a large number of them go) the children in the school will never be able to obtain this kind of education.

I do not feel like I came away from Ticonderoga schools with much more than a big waste of time, with few exceptions:
*One second grade teacher
*One fifth grade teacher--that is it for elementary school
* One sixth grade English teacher; one middle school music teacher (who left after a very few years)--that is it for middle school
* Two high school English teachers (one year each; neither of them--stayed in Ticonderoga for very long)
* One high school math teacher (one year)
* One high school social studies teacher (one year)
* One foreign language teacher (three years--who stayed just a few years)
* One band teacher--that is it for high school
The music program, the extracurricular activites, and the many and various field trips were at least half of my best learning experiences. It certainly wasn't core academics. I was very lucky to have educated, talented and invovled parents and friends.
From my list, you can see that I did not receive much of a quality experience in the Ticonderoga School District. This is my experience and my opinion. My formal education truly began when I started college. And, I was fortunate to be accepted to a very good college.
I, too, am a trained teacher. I have chosen to not work in a public school but to be a private (and affordable) tutor instead. I also volunteer at a private school and work as a respite provider. I'm not compensated as I would if I worked in a public school and I certainly don't have the extra benefits, e.g., pension at 80% or medical benefits, but my reward is sharing real learning, progress and enjoyment with my students.
In case you're wondering why I chose not to teacher in a public school, I have two reasons: An excellent, seasoned Crown Point school teacher (now retired) talked me away from taking that path. And, perhaps more importantly, I did some substitute teaching for a time, and I saw how teachers and staff and administrators "bash" each other and bully students. It was a disgusting experience that I try not to remember.

Budget Adoption results from 4/25.
-Restructuring Modified program to Intramurals
-Reduced Extracurricular offerings
-15 Positions reduced over various departments
So what does this mean? Well first no more modified sports. They will try to run an intramural program which is only going to hurt your sports programs over the long run. Why not cut J.V. sports instead? It saves more money, you can still over sports to grades 7-12 with having varsity and modified, plus other schools are cutting their JV programs. Who will be left for our JV teams to play?(nobody).
Reduced extra-curricular offering, yet this hasn't been completely determined.
Lastly 15 positions reduced over various departments. Again this hasn't been completely determined. Shouldn't the list be finalized already so we can know where the reductions will be and in what areas? For example do we need 4 music teachers for 3 buildings? Do we really need a dozen TA's? 2 full time secretaries in each buildings office? An administrative assistant in the High School office?
#108 Apr 27, 2013
Here is the proposed budget adopted on 4/25.
Budget Amount $18,608,671
-Restructuring Modified program to Intramurals
-Reduced Extracurricular offerings
-15 Positions reduced over various departments
Why are modified sports being cut when JV sports at other schools are being cut or they aren't fielding teams (soccer, basketball, baseball/softball)? There will be hardly any schools left for our JV teams to play. JV sports also cost more money, so the district could save more money by cutting JV. Plus having both Modified and Varsity would allow you to keep offering students in grades 7-12 sports. This will help keep your sports programs balanced and competitive. Kids DO NOT want to play intramurals. There are many issues with that idea. The board needs to cut JV instead of Modified if we are going to cut sports.
Reduced extra curricular activities? Where and which ones? How expensive really are they to run?
15 positions over various departments. Where is the list of what is being cut? Do we really need 4 music teachers for 3 buildings. Other schools of similar size have 2 or 3 teachers only in this department. Do we really need the dozen or so aides and assistants? Do we really need 2 full time secretaries in each of the offices? Do we need the vice principal or whatever he is in the High School office?
#109 Apr 27, 2013
Teachers have a 180 day contract. Based on them working a 7 hour day - which I'm not sure any do. and at a salary without benefits included of $50,000/year that person is getting approx. $40./hour. At $80,000./year that is approx. $64./hour. Underpaid-I think not.
#110 Apr 27, 2013
Why cut positions-- when salary reductions across the board will solve that issue? You're talking about cutting valuable positions vs trimming the fat off the dead meat that need to retire -- and there are many of them!! Again-- start at the top paid positions and exponentially adjust salaries. The more you make the more the cut. Teachers should not be making more that 30 or 40K at BEST!
#111 Apr 27, 2013
If everyone has a solution why didn't anyone stand up at the meeting Thursday and explain how to do it? I'm so sick of low life's posting how they should do this or do that but never stand up and offer to help. You can't balance your checking account but you can figure out how to balance the school budget. Run for a seat. Three members are up for reelection with one person running that's new, out if 96 posts on thus forum and everyone being able to do such a better job that number should be much higher than ONE!!!!! You state in on post all board members should be replaced here is your chance to replace three go for it, until then stop bitching about the job they are doing.
#112 Apr 27, 2013
If positions can be cut, then why were these positions created in the first place? If we can do without additional aides and secretaries/assistants now, then why have the taxpayers been paying for them all along?
We all realize that there is plenty of dead wood. So, it is just a matter of getting rid of the dead wood, AND making sure that we don't end up with teachers that are here based on their last name, their marriage (i.e., who they married), the mere fact that their parent(s) were teachers, etc. Or, teachers with lacking credentials, e.g. online "colleges." And the big issue, when teachers are hired, there needs to be transparency for the taxpayer, every hire. For example:
I.e., When each teaching position is open, post final candidates, their resumes, including education, teaching history, transcript of Q&A of all interviews on the Ti School District webpage in a timely fashion.(This should include results of background checks.) Salary and benefit offers to each candidate. Etc. Everything. Then, let the parents/taxpayers give input--TRUE enfranchisement! Why not?
#113 Apr 27, 2013
Why are paying for Mr. mcDonalds educational costs? It would have been a big savings to have hired a qualified person from the start. Bill Brennen again spoils the school system. What a shame when we the people are hand picked dependent on pedigree, that has run dry! Again missing out on qualified and cheaper leaders. Check put the minutes for last month, paying for McDonalds schooling exepenses,why!
#114 Apr 28, 2013
New merger study (public information) states TCS can absorb CPCS 6-12 students even without adding CP staff and still not be an issue. Overstaffed! I think so!
#115 Apr 28, 2013
I know Crown Point has a reputation for being hillbilly hell, but I would think there would be some people who would care more about themselves than to even think about merging with Ti, which has a reputation for being dysfunction hell, drunk hell, pill snorting hell, teen prostitution hell, on and on.
Listen up, Crown Point! Stop talking about a merger; don't even talk about it. Before you are very sorry!!!
#116 Apr 28, 2013
You must be kidding-- McDonald has not YET received his degree? Chances are this won't ever happen. I mean a doctorate in education-- is not rocket science-- its actually the easiest terminal degree to obtain. Enough is enough people. I think we should send the tuition bill to Brennan and let him pay for his "boy". After-all-- Brennan is the one that created the good ole boy club in Ti school.
What a waste! There is NO need to cut positions-- CUT the salaries and benefits and stop the nonsense. If the people we pay to come up with ideas cannot do it-- they should be fired immediately.
#117 Apr 28, 2013
We do in fact, pay Mr. M's bill. Remember, last year or the year before, he was second choice for a position in a different school system. Nice of us to continue to foot the bill while he looks elsewhere, isn't it? Keep in mind...the BOARD approves this. Maybe another example of needing new blood on our board.
United States
#118 Apr 28, 2013
Wow! You are one angry person. You must be lacking somewhere in your life. What did you get your doctorate in? I am just wondering, as you appear to know.
#119 Apr 28, 2013
Fifty years ago, people made a choice to raise their family in the Adirondack Park, a big ol' campground. What can you expect? There is no difference between Crown Point, Ti, Moriah, or anywhere else in Essex and Hamilton counties, as well as portions of Clinton, Franklin, Fulton, Herkimer, St. Lawrence, Warren counties and small back road areas of Lewis, Oneida, Saratoga, and Washington counties.
Same thing with the Catskills, hillbillies and crackers.
Wake up already you dumb hics!
#120 Apr 29, 2013
What does this sentence mean exactly? "Appear to know" about what?
#121 Apr 30, 2013
I think teachers will be merged then staff cuts will be made based on seniority. I think Ti may lose more teachers than Crown Point. Crown Point teachers will automatically be hired I believe. This is a tough situation, my heart goes out to all the staff and students that will have their lives turned upside down.
United States
#122 Apr 30, 2013
Not sure what you mean.
#123 May 1, 2013
WHY exactly are the taxpayers paying for McDonald's college costs?
And, then it makes us wonder if they are paying for the college costs of other staff or faculty!???
Anyone know?

On his two major-label albums, Owl City's Adam Young composed, performed and self-produced all of the synth-pop melodies. Headlining the Harley-Davidson Roadhouse on Thursday night, he fleshed out the lush sounds with a five-piece backing band of layered violin, cello, drums, keyboards and guitar - his instrument of choice early in the set.
With bright lights shining, Young gazed over the crowd and sang the resonating and ethereal vocals of the opening of "The Real World." Owl City's music is mostly bouncy, happy pop, from the upbeat "Deer in the Headlights" to the syncopated beat of "Cave In." Smiling earnestly, Young praised the crowd, said "hello" to himself on the giant video screen and picked up an acoustic guitar to join keyboardist Breanne Düren on the lyrics to the sweet "Honey and the Bee."

A half-century ago, she was the snarling Banshee Queen of Rockabilly. Wanda Jackson's version of "Let's Have a Party" blew Elvis' original out the back door.
Forward to 2011, and Jackson, 73, is the latest Jack White reclamation project. As he did earlier for Loretta Lynn, White re-created Wanda for modern ears with a new album, "The Party Ain't Over Yet."
The good news from Jackson's headlining set Thursday at the Potawatomi Bingo Casino Stage & Pavilion was that she has survived the remodeling with her essential Wanda-ness intact.
Indeed, she did two tunes from her Elvis tribute album - "Good Rockin' Tonight" and "Heartbreak Hotel" - before she got around to "Shakin' All Over" from the new disc.
It's not easy to transmit sexual combustibility or pose a serious threat to the social order at 73, but Jackson has a terrific band and a legitimate claim to be the last hepcat standing. There's something to be said for that.

Dressed in a red jacket and captain's hat - and sans his usual multicolored dreadlocks - George Clinton strutted around the stage of the Briggs & Stratton Big Backyard on Thursday night, growling out the chorus of "Undisco Kidd" against deep bass and a funky beat: "Bad! The girl is bad!"
By the time his backing Parliament-Funkadelic introduced the much-sampled melody of "Flashlight," there were at least 16 people crowded onto the stage, including Clinton, musicians, backing singers, rappers, a break dancer in a pimp costume and a giant-headed skeleton smoking a spliff.
And, so goes a George Clinton show. With a free-form vibe, playful musicianship and plenty of audience call and response, it was much more of a party than a concert, with the 69-year-old Clinton serving as the funky master of ceremonies.

The strong winds whipping off the lake wreaked havoc on the sound during Neon Trees' set at the U.S. Cellular Connection Stage on Thursday night, creating uneven volume and carrying over music from nearby stages.
But that didn't dampen the energy of the Provo, Utah-based quartet and its frenetic frontman, Tyler Glenn. Dressed in a shiny gold and silver jacket and sporting a striking black mohawk, he danced and twirled across the stage as he traded vocals on "Girls and Boys in School" with drummer Elaine Bradley.
The band is touring with an extra guitarist this summer, and the group's poppy synthesized rock got the crowd on the bleachers moving as Glenn bent over his keyboard and belted out the impassioned chorus of "Calling My Name."
Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons didn't have to wander too far to make it to the Roadhouse on Thursday night.
Chisel and his band are based in Appleton, but if talent is the critical determinant, they may be headed uptown very soon. It always starts with good songs, and Chisel is a superb tunesmith. The Sons are loosely typed as an Americana act, and when the band drops into a stripped-down mode with just Chisel on acoustic guitar and Adriel Harris on keyboards, the result is somewhat reminiscent of "Nebraska"-era Springsteen without the bleakness. Chisel's "Tennessee" certainly evokes that connection.
Chisel's look suggests Jakob Dylan, but he may be a more polished songwriter. For one thing, he came up with what might be the best country song title in a couple of presidential administrations: "I Never Meant to Love You, But It's Too Late Now." And it turns out the song is good enough to live up to the title.
- Dave Tianen
Kenosha's Bascom Hill is edging into the musical mainstream through all the modern methods - song placements on TV's "Real World" and "America's Next Top Model" - along with the old-fashioned approach of opening for the likes of the Fray and Kenny Wayne Shepherd and playing big-tent events such as the Harley Fest in Sturgis, S.D.
On Thursday, the band returned to another Big Tent venue: the Miller Lite Oasis. As the Sturgis gig suggests, Bascom Hill plays an updated version of heartland rock with the usual echoes of Tom Petty and Bob Seger. Front man Charlie Victor has a virile set of pipes, and he has absorbed enough country influences that it's possible to detect a bit of Phil Vassar in the mix.
Victor and guitarist Jason Sheridan give Bascom Hill a strong base to build from, but the songwriting hasn't completely matured. There was a touch of the generic in some of their rock tunes, but the acoustic stuff like "Between Poses" and "Angels Weep" suggests their true strength may lie in softer tunes.

clean up the mess
lay the wheel down, tuck in the port' by hand (some instructions say to "deflate the tire and pound in the port' with a rubber mallet".....well, by breaking the bead made it a little less Neanderthal )
center the port' with the rim, reinflate the tire, deflate the tire and push port' in a bit more ( my back tire port' creeped out slightly; 'seating the bead' gave it a bit more friction to hold the portawall in place before the final inflation.

Lose Belly Fat with These Plastic Surgery Procedures
posted on
Belly fat can be one of the hardest types of fat to lose, regardless of your weight, body shape and size. Men and women both struggle with losing that layer of fat over the abdomen, and diet and exercise alone aren't usually enough to get rid of belly fat. Plastic surgery may be the answer for many, and there are several procedures that can help to get rid of belly fat and create a flat, toned and sculpted appearance.
Tummy Tucks
The tummy tuck, also known as an abdominoplasty, is one of the most effective procedures for getting rid of belly fat. In this procedure, the fat is removed and the muscles and tissues can be repositioned to create a flat, smooth and sculpted appearance. Tummy tucks are usually performed on patients who have loose or lax skin over the abdominal area, or on women who have had children and are struggling with losing weight from the abdomen and waistline. Keep in mind that this is a fairly extensive surgery and does involve some downtime.
Radio Frequency Liposuction
Radio frequency liposuction is an innovative liposuction technique that uses bi-polar energy waves to dissolve the fat before it is extracted. This plastic surgery procedure is especially effective for getting rid of belly fat because it can remove both superficial fat and fat that is located deeper in the tissues. If you have always had a "tummy bump" or struggle with losing fat on top of your abdomen, you may be a good candidate for the radio frequency liposuction procedure.
VASER Liposuction
VASER Liposuction is an innovative form of laser liposuction that is especially effective for body sculpting and body contouring. The VASER lipo procedure is designed for patients who are already fairly fit, but want more definition around their waist and stomach. The VASER liposuction procedure can remove the layer of body fat on top of the stomach and also tighten and contour the stomach and waist to create a streamlined appearance. If you want to achieve a six-pack abs or just want a flatter, defined waist, consider undergoingVASER liposuction.
Most liposuction procedures that get rid of belly fat are designed for patients who only have a few pounds of extra fat to lose, or for those who want to achieve a more sculpted and toned appearance. Regardless of the type of plastic surgery procedure you choose to get rid of belly fat, you will need to maintain a healthy diet and exercise regularly so that you maintain a fit and toned appearance.

What is hybrid coronary bypass?
Hybrid coronary bypass is surgery that combines minimally invasive robot-assisted bypass with coronary angioplasty and stenting. Your surgeon may recommend this surgery if you have a major blockage in the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery and smaller blockages in other coronary arteries. Some hospitals are equipped to provide both procedures at the same time, while others provide the procedures in two stages.
Your coronary arteries are the vessels that supply the heart muscle with blood. Bypass surgery uses a graft to create a new route for blood to flow around a narrowed or blocked coronary artery. A graft is a healthy vessel taken from other places in your body.
Coronary angioplasty widens or opens a blocked or narrowed coronary artery. Stenting involves inserting a mesh tube inside your coronary artery and expanding it to keep it open after angioplasty. Stents remain in place to keep your coronary artery open.
Hybrid coronary bypass is major surgery that has risks and potential complications. You may have less invasive treatment options. Consider getting a second opinion about all of your treatment choices before having hybrid coronary bypass.

WELCOME TO ADIRONDACKARTS, WELCOME TO ADIRONDACKARTS, featured in this listing is a truly work of art from the frame right down to the photo of the young teenage boy. This frame is antique, with gold gesso in a leaf and feather plume design on the inner tier, that is all in great shape. The gold leaf paint on the three other tiers do need to be touched up but that is a very easy fix. The photo is displayed under wavey glass which also dates this piece. This is all original so take a good look at all of my pictures so you may be the true judge of this wonderful piece's beauty, age, and condition. The frame measures overall 28 1/4" by 24 1/2" and will encase 23" by 19 1/4" which makes the face of the frame a full 4 3/4". I am starting the bidding low, so now is the time to add to your collection of antique frames with a great piece of American Artwork!
I will be shipping this artwork via FedEx ground to your street address. PO Box address will be higher. International bidders are welcomed. Please contact me before bidding for your shipping quote.

1. Justin Fox responds to my post on the Supreme Court decision (see Karl's take below). The best so far on this issue are Julian Sanchez and Eugene Volokh. Julian writes:
Why is it that so many people who clearly do think books and magazines and talk radio shows enjoy unambiguous constitutional protection, despite being corporate funded or operated, are simultaneously absolutely sure that paid broadcast spots are in an utterly different category?
2. In what culture is it not a sign of disrespect to throw a shoe?
3. Hitchens on the word "like":
People who can't get along without "um" or "er" or "basically" (or, in England, "actually") or "et cetera et cetera" are of two types: the chronically modest and inarticulate… and the mildly authoritarian who want to make themselves un-interruptible.
4. Strange maps. H.T. James Fallows.
5. Oh those tolerant French:
Parliament will now have to debate whether to adopt the nonbinding resolution suggested in the report, stating that the full veil was "contrary to the values of the republic" and asserting that "all of France is saying no" to the veil. Then Parliament will decide what if any legislation should be passed.
6. David Henderson on the problem with small banks:
Because banks during the Great Depression were so small, they were undiversified. So when the agriculture sector went under, in part because of the Smoot-Hawley Act that attacked free trade, many rural banks failed. Call it "too small, so we failed."
History shows us that you don't need "too big to fail" banks to have a devastating financial crisis. It's important to remember that.

Anything Goes On The Internet; Captivating Expected And Unexpected Sources
"Good authors, too, who once knew better words, Now only use four-letter words writing prose, Anything goes."—Cole Porter
I had been expecting this for some time and recently received an e-mail informing me that within a few days Comcast, my broadband Internet supplier, would place a limit on my monthly downloads, stating that "usage of more than 250 Gigabytes (GB) is the specific threshold that defines excessive use of our service." This happened after a Comcast employee told me they would not do this because regulating the amount of downloads would require them to monitor the total amount of each subscriber's traffic and he didn't think the company would expend the capital to do that. He was wrong. So now Comcast knows how much information I download which sounds like just a short jump to measured service and traffic shaping (see the April 2008 issue of Shutterbug). This policy is currently effective out here in the Wild West where anything goes and I don't know if they've cracked the whip in your territory yet, but don't be surprised when they do.
From its opening page, Justin VanAlstyne's website is in-your-face, reflecting this multi-talented individual's work in design, video, and still photography. The site has a must-visit section called "Dailies" that's really a free-form photoblog. His The Big Lebowlsky bowling shots demonstrate that even when VanAlstyne's having fun he takes the time to make creative images even with a digital point-and-shoot. I'll concentrate on the photographic galleries, leaving you to prowl his "Design" and "Motion" collections on your own.
"Past Life" is a look at farming from a distinctly nostalgic and close-up perspective. Using mostly color but featuring some very nice monochrome images, VanAlstyne's photographs have been kicked up a notch using Tex Avery eyeball-popping color and contrast. "Plant Life" could be subtitled the "secret life of plants" and features a similar use of color, shape, and form to get you looking at fauna in some very new ways. "Simple Life" shows close-up photography of a variety of familiar subject matter photographed in a decidedly unfamiliar and colorful manner. A couple of black and white images pop up now and then and these are not to be missed. There are echoes of this same style in his "Natural Life" collection, while "Human Life," for the first time, interjects people into his world. Many of these—don't miss the "butt crack man"—make a humorous comment on contemporary life and while an occasional shot may seem out of place here, this gallery isn't to be missed. Similarly, "Urban Life" takes his folksy style into the big city where VanAlstyne uses strong composition and bold color choices to turn everyday objects into works of art. Great photography combined with a totally fresh take on site design makes VanAlstyne's website worth a visit.
With its clean-looking design Frank Hoefsmit's website lets you look at his portfolio through a flip-out scrolling list or just click "Portfolio" to see a list of the four main collections with thumbnails of highlighted images from each individual sub-collection. "Editorials" contains mostly fashion images with "Watercolor Sunset" being the first and the one that attracted me most. Unlike the dearth of caption information usually found in photographers' sites, Hoefsmit provides information about the images, including where they were shot and even the names of the model and support staff. This collection is fashion photography at its best with dramatic lighting, careful framing, and inventive styling concepts, producing images that are fresh and exciting.
"Portfolio" (yes, there is a Portfolio inside "the Portfolio") contains collections of mostly studio photography along with portraits of celebrities that are executed with the same verve and style that Hoefsmit infuses into his fashion imagery. "Exhibits" contains an eclectic collection of photographs that encompass abstract color, monochrome photojournalism, and fine art (nudity advisory) whose color and monochrome images vary from traditional to some of the most exciting and creative nude photographs I've seen in a long time. "Archives" contains what for the most part are bread-and-butter fashion images, with the exception of "Style File" that mixes in some of the panache of Hoefsmit's on-location approach with his studio work. And believe me, accomplishing that using only seamless paper takes talent, skill, and imagination, something that explodes from Hoefsmit's camera. And finally, what makes all these images so interesting to me is that Hoefsmit is located in Mandaluyong City in the Philippines.

Harcourts WA Ahead of the Pack
Harcourts Western Australia has had an incredible start to 2012 with two of the group's largest sales offices taking out the top awards at the Harcourts National Awards ceremony in late May.
Harcourts Alliance Joondalup was named the number one office (gross income into office) within Australia while Harcourts Mandurah took out the number two position in the same category.
"To have two of Harcourts' best performing offices for the year hail from Perth is just fantastic. It's a real testament to the offices' hard work and to our culture as a team," said Stuart Cox, Chief Executive Officer of Harcourts Western Australia.
As well as taking home the number two office position, Harcourts Mandurah were also second place in the Gross Income into Office Per Sales Consultant category.
Lee Perry, Director of Harcourts Mandurah, was also named number seven in the Top 20 Sales Consultants category.
Under the leadership of Mr Cox who took up the role of Chief Executive Officer in mid-2011, Harcourts Western Australia has so far had one of its best years on record.
"As well as having a great group of sales offices led by exceptional business owners, I believe our success is due to the great new products being developed by Harcourts and the overall strength of the brand," Mr Cox said.
"Here in WA, we place a strong focus on building successful sales offices and we're able to do this using Harcourts' range of technology, marketing, and training systems," Mr Cox continued.

this is not the complete season just the first 12 episodes TNT will start showing the final 4 episodes starting Feburary 25 2014
Thanks Mav - that long pause in episodes misled me into thinking the season was complete. I'll make a new torrent once those episodes are out. My apologies to anyone I unintentionally misled.
the show went off air only a few episodes after it aired for the new season, and it was because Frost (character in show) committed suicide in real life so they aired the last episodes he was in, and then went on to have to record episodes without him and not replace his character, or to find a replacement for his character and add into the story line that Frost was transferred to a different division or something. This is my FAv show so I wanna get to watch the download you did so i will be caught up :)

wonderful actor....(made me lol more than once)
So very tradgic..... RIP... Lee Thompson Young

Looking for a DIY tutor for myself
Hello everyone,
I am looking for a local individual that can tutor me in construction/handyman type things. I have an objective centered curriculum that I am going through on my own and I just need someone who is good at carpentry to assist me with it. I will pay $20 an hour for the teachings. I am located in Honolulu on O'ahu, I really hope someone can help me out with this. Mahalo!
This is not the local help wanted ads.
Might want to try your Craigs List, pick up some DIY books, just asking your questions on boards like this should be able to get you through just about any job.
@Joe - Even with no previous experience, I should be able to get through anything you think? There are a number of things that I would like to build/get started working on but I guess I just get super nervous about this type of stuff since I have no background in anything working with my hands.
One of the big things I would like to do is build a small house (~600 sq feet) all by myself. I should be able to acquire at least a small portion of land and that way I would be only paying the cost of the building materials. The cost per square foot to build a house here in Honolulu ranges from about $150 sq ft and up. So, I was thinking that if I do everything myself then I should be able to cut that in half to about $75 sq ft for a total of about $45,000. Your thoughts?
http://www.byoh.com/stepbystep.htm <- I've been perusing this link a lot.
Good training for building a house is building a finished garage or shed first, lots of the skill apply.
Maybe hire a carpenter and work along side him? Might cost you more than $20/hr, well around here it would
@mae-ling - I asked around at work today and there is, in fact, someone in our maintenance department that has his own business and is actively looking for helpers. The person I spoke with said he will pass my info along to him and the owner will contact me if he's interested. I was told that I don't need any previous experience and that he'll teach me what I need to know.
My issue with this is that I have a set list of objectives that I need to get done. I want to go through them as quickly as possible so as not to waste too much time. I may just end up hiring a handyman to teach me as you suggested even though it may be pretty expensive. I'll try my local community college to see if anyone is interested first though.
Here's some ideas on some tiny cottages.
If your only motivation is to save money then you are heading the wrong direction. The investment in tools will be significant. Learn as you go is also a very slow process. You may wind up getting in a mess and have to bring in some hired guns anyway to bail you out. Some operations are next to impossible for a single person to carry out too.
Don't forget permits and inspections needed! And the inspector is going to be especially diligent with a newcomer. And you may not be able to do some things yourself.
Why not do some work for Habitat for Humanity and donate the $20/hour to the cause? They put up structures in record time and you would work next to some qualified people?
You cannot rush all of this. Much of learning trade skills is becoming proficient through nothing more than doing them repetitively. You will likely find there are things you cannot master in time to meet your schedule.
And why not take a course at the community college where you could try things in a hands-on fashion. I believe most have construction overview sorts of courses or certificate programs?
Another thing to consider would be some sort of prefab house (and they do not have to look like ugly boxes) that have lots of the work factory done with the contractor left to finish them. One thing that frightens me is you getting a sticks and stones house framed and with a roof on it to survive your climate.
@joecaption - I don't see anything...
@PoleCat - I don't plan on building a conventional house really. Highly customized to be as self-sustaining as possible. Amish style. :)
Also, regarding the tools, I can rent them or possibly borrow them from someone I know hopefully.
Don't let anybody discourage you ground, if it wasn't for the opportunity to buy tools lots of folks woudn't do any DIY. For instruction try your local community college, i taught wood working through them, a community extension course, not part of regular curriculum, at a commercial shop for a couple of years. also try local AARP retired guys needing some cash. As for a "learning" Some Carpenter's Locals have apprentices buils a play house, using "real" sometimes scaled down techniques as part of test, then auction it off for charity. You can keep yours, live in it while building your dream house.

quote:Right wingers would have a fit if Obama and Biden did this
Bush and Cheney did not testify before the panel -- they were not under oath and there was to be no recording made of the session nor a stenographer in the room. The two members of the White House counsel's staff were expected to take notes during the session, and the commission members were also allowed to take handwritten notes. Bush brushed off a question from a reporter Thursday on whether 9/11 families were entitled to a transcript of the session. "You asked me that question yesterday," Bush replied. "I got the same answer." He did not repeat the answer, but the White House has said there will not be a transcript of the session. Bush said he expects details of his "conversation" with the commission to go into its final report.
The ole quiver must be running low
The Reagan administration immediately attempted to deflect blame for the attack with a deluge of false statements and misrepresentations. In a televised speech four days after the bombing, the president insisted the attack was unstoppable, erroneously declaring that the truck crashed through a series of barriers, including a chain-link fence and barbed-wire entanglements, and argued that the U.S. mission was succeeding.

Turn of the Century Artist Still RelevantApril 9, 2014

If you have ever lived in or visited Chicago, you may have heard of a man called Lorado Taft. Even if you spent 30 years living in the Windy City and have never heard his name, you have undoubtedly seen one of his many sculptures that not only make up the city but also say something about it during Taft's time and even today.
This influential man is the subject of a lecture hosted by the Fine Arts Society of Peoria that is taking place on April 10 in Peoria.
Taft was born in Elmwood, Ill.; grew up and went to college in Champaign, obtaining his bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Illinois; and spent three years studying sculpting at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts, the National School of Fine Arts in Paris before returning to the United States and settling in Chicago in 1886.
While he has sculptures scattered all across the United States, most of his work – such as "The Fountain of Time" in Chicago's Midway Plaisance, "The Fountain of the Great Lakes" at the Art Institute of Chicago and "Alma Mater" at the University of Illinois in Champaign – is located in Illinois and Chicago in particular.
Lecturer and writer Wendy Greenhouse, who holds a doctorate in Art History from Yale, will review Taft's life and diverse career as a sculptor, educator, lecturer, and supporter and promoter of the fine arts.
"The [primary] focus of my talk really is about how Taft's practice on all these different levels aligned with what he and many of his contemporaries perceived as cultural needs in Chicago at the turn of the century – the need for uplift, the need for beauty, the need for people to be more closely connected to the creative impulses in themselves and in the world around them," Greenhouse said.
"I'm very interested in how Taft saw his art as something by which he could reach people and really transform their lives," she added.
By working with educators, architects and social reformers, Taft wanted to address what he and many of his contemporaries saw wrong with Chicago, what they thought it lacked and what it needed, Greenhouse says.
The lecture will be from 10-11 a.m. this Thursday at the Anshai Emeth building located at 5614 N. University St. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students and can be purchased at the door. For more information about the event, tickets or the FASP, you can call the organization at 309-693-7600.
For those who want to go further than the lecture, the FASP is hosting a trip on May 8 to the Anderson Gardens, which was part of a previous lecture, in Rockford and to Oregon, Ill. to view some of Taft's sculptures in a self-guided tour. Lunch will be provided.
You can get more information about the trip by calling the FASP.
Although he taught at the Art Institute of Chicago, Taft's teaching was not limited to traditional university sculpting students. He influenced and supported the artwork of office workers, stenographers, car company employees and numerous others in various professions.
It was part of his desire to bring fine art to more than the average Art Institute exhibition attendee. He wanted to show the everyday citizen that art had something for them, as well.
"It came over me gradually that the coy attitude of our artists, like a girl waiting to be proposed to, was not a success [and], that while our public needed sculpture, it did not know it and would never guess it until someone showed it what it wanted," Taft was once quoted as saying.
He was also a believer in the woman artist during a time when it was not fashionable to let women sculpt. A group of his women students known as the White Rabbits even went on to become successful artists in their own right.
This practice of supporting the uncommon artist stretched to his prolific lecturing, where he would speak at expected places like the University of Chicago and the University of Illinois but also at less elite places like certain women's clubs.
During certain lectures, he would use clay to demonstrate certain techniques and processes while talking about the larger ideals of sculpting and art.
He was possibly even one of the Midwest's most well-known names in the art world in his day.
Even though his name was everywhere during his day, it is hard to judge how many people at the time would have known about him, Greenhouse says. She is sure, however, that if you were a relatively active, middle-class person who read the newspaper and was interested in what was going on in the city culturally, you would have known about him.
That public awareness has changed over the many decades since his death in 1937. Taft did the work of six artists in his one lifetime, but he is not thought of by many people today, whether they be an average person or a sculptor. Part of that has to do with his style, which many modern sculptors do not study anymore, Greenhouse says.
Taft wanted to make sculptures that were more imaginative, allegorical, metaphoric and that were about ideas as opposed to just honoring people according to the styles of his day.
On the surface, his art seems quite conservative, old fashioned, traditional and not in line with the more modern styles of today, Greenhouse says. This turns many people off, because they think the sculptures have absolutely nothing to say to them in the present.
"I've talked about Lorado Taft, [and] I've used his pieces with students," Greenhouse said. "When people know something about it and give it a chance, they really enjoy it, and they don't see it as irrelevant. They understand that Taft was addressing big themes [and] big ideas that are still relevant today."
Greenhouse believes we are surrounded by overlooked art that influences us and is part of our lives. One example she uses is the painting "Washington Crossing the Delaware." It is an extremely popular, widely seen and influential piece that is part of who we are and says a lot about us, but most people would be incapable of naming the painter, Greenhouse says.
"This is one of the reasons why I in particular am so fascinated by artists like Lorado Taft," Greenhouse said. "My whole career, I've been really interested in artists who were once toweringly obvious and influential and revered [but] whose names have really kind of gone underground for all kinds of, I think, pretty obtuse reasons."
"Their work is still important, and it's certainly historically important," Greenhouse added. "It's impossible to write the history of Chicago's artistic or cultural life at the turn of the 20th century and not talk about Lorado Taft. He's just too important on too many levels."
Greenhouse would like people to walk away with not just a great understanding of Taft's work but a better appreciation for the role of art in today's cities.
"We still have a lot of the same problems in our cities, and we still need art and beauty not to lift us out of those problems and make us forget but to give us some tools for addressing them on the deepest level," Greenhouse said.

HD7 functionality
I'm curious if anyone has used one of the HDS series MFD's. Specifically, I'd like to know if it can display sailing instrument information (assuming the sailing instruments are NMEA 2000) i.e. wind speed, direction, knot meter. They sure don't highlight it in the literature.
Also, anyone use one of the shoot thru hull transducers. I can't find a xducer that will go into one of my existing thru hulls, but a friend says fiberglass is (can be) virtually invisible to ultra sound.

Economists expect Fed to scale back QE3 by year-end
Most economists expect the central bank to scale back the size of its bond purchases by the end of the year, and a sizable amount expect to reduce buying as early as September, according to a Reuters poll.
Of 48 economists who answered a poll question on Friday about when they expected the Fed to cut back on the size of its debt purchases, 42 said they expected this by the end of 2013. Of those, 21 expect reduced purchases to be announced during the third quarter of the year, with 19 specifying the Fed's September policy meeting.

by Annalena McAfee
(Harvill Secker, £12.99)
The pioneering female foreign correspondents are a formidable and glamorous breed. The former Telegraph journalist Clare Hollingworth, now aged 99, who witnessed Germany's invasion of Poland before Britain's Foreign Office was aware of it, would show up at the Telegraph offices in later life. She was both magnificent and tetchy. She repeatedly and crossly addressed me as the editor's secretary (as it happens, I was deputy editor), craning her head for grander company.
Annalena McAfee's masterly debut novel takes one of these journalistic heroines and juxtaposes her with a young, dumb new race of female journalist. The comic structure of the book is that the ignorant and crass Tamara Sim is interviewing the great old war correspondent Honor Tait for a Sunday newspaper supplement.
Sim is there to find out more about Tait's famous old lovers, and instead gets tiresome historical testaments. Sim inwardly panics as she tries to remember the difference between Castro and Franco.
The interview form is a wrestling of wills. Both parties fight to define an existence. There is a very funny running gag in which Tamara keeps mentally rewriting her introduction, less and less flatteringly, but always with the cliché "the doyenne of journalism". Later, there is a moving echo of this as Tait struggles to rewrite her introduction about the liberation of the concentration camps.
In the acknowledgements, McAfee likens Tait to the dashing American war correspondent Marguerite Higgins, but stresses that her characters are fictional. As well she might: McAfee is a former arts editor of the Evening Standard as well as working for the Financial Times and The Guardian.
She turned gamekeeper when she married the novelist Ian McEwan, whom she thanks by name at the back of this novel without stating her relationship to him.
Naturally, readers will search for his influences in this novel and wonder how McAfee fares as a novelist in her own right. This is not a very feminist approach but it is a human one and McAfee has always been understanding of her old journalistic muckers. The similarities with McEwan are really applicable to all good novelists. The book has a tight structure and an intriguing plot. The language is frisky and without cliché. McAfee is mercilessly observant (her former colleagues remember her amused cat-green eyes in the office) and witty. She has some wonderfully fresh turns of phrase in this book. The old woman's eyes narrowed to "two sparks of spite". Lights are switched on in a building "turning it into an illuminated Advent calendar of domestic interiors".
McAfee's description of newspapers and the characters within is razor accurate. The only thing it does not capture is the essence of camaraderie; perhaps she has come to find the rakish pleasures less charming now that she is married to a subject of ceaseless media interest.
The substance in the book comes in her study of
female ageing. Her imaginative empathy makes the reader feel with shuddering clarity the humiliation of age in an unsympathetic society.
It may sound a bit Tamara Sim to applaud McAfee for emerging from her husband's shadow, but this is a strikingly entertaining and accomplished novel and I hope we don't have to wait long for the next one.Reuse content

Try a spot of base jumping
We'll admit, before watching this video the phenomenon of wingsuit flying was nothing more than an elaborate fantasy conjured up by those lucid dreams after having had one too many slices of Camembert after dark. However, it is real — and Jeb Corliss and co are here to show you how to try this with your very own GoPro camera.
Send it into space
Now this one may be slightly out of reach for us mere mortals, but who are we to judge those who reach for the stars (pardon the pun)? Did you know that NASA has been sending Nikon cameras into space ever since 1971, when the Nikon Photomic FTN ascended with Apollo 15?
Attach a digital SLR to an RC car
Yes, we know that this feature is technically supposed to focus on humans rather than our furry friends, but how can anyone resist the sights of curious animals inspecting expensive camera gear? Matthew and William Burrard-Lucas are brothers who share a love of wildlife photography, and have mounted a Canon SLR on top of an all-terrain remote control vehicle.
Turn two again
Perhaps it's all part of the human design, but most of us wouldn't readily remember the day-to-day life of a two year old. Thank goodness for the internet; a father has strapped a GoPro camera to his daughter's helmet to capture those heady days of the terrible twos.
Try some parkour-style bike riding
A little break in the first-person perspective now, as this piece showcases Danny MacAskill riding around an industrial train yard. There's no fancy SLR trickery here, or helmet cams, either. Most likely shot on broadcast cameras, given the clip's original placement on Channel 4 in the UK, this is nonetheless a great, fun idea to try shooting with an extreme camera should you find yourself in the company of an elite bike rider.
Experience skydiving in slow motion
As usual, the best is saved until last. Unfortunately, the human hasn't evolved yet to allow the eye to capture scenes in slow motion, so we have to rely on our friend videography to make up the difference. This is a local video commissioned by Melbourne Skydive Centre, which really deserves to be watched in full screen, rather than talked about.
Looking for an extreme camera to call your own? There's the GoPro, Contour+, or our list of the best waterproof and tough cameras.

By Beverly Gannon with Bonnie Friedman
Located on a pineapple plantation in up-country Maui, the Hali'imaile General Store has lured travelers for over a decade with its down-home, island-style cooking. Critics and diners rave about chef Beverly Gannon's rustic, hearty fare, and the restaurant is a Food & Wine and Sunset Editor's Choice of top restaurants in Hawaii and the 1999 winner of Honolulu magazine's coveted Hale 'Aina Award. The Hali'imaile General Store Cookbook allows readers to bring the spirit of Maui and its landmark restaurant into their own kitchens with over 100 recipes, accompanied by Beverly's warm, friendly narrative.
Although the vast majority of visitors to Hawaii believe there is only one season—the proverbial Endless Summer—Beverly hopes to dispel that myth by organizing her tantalizing recipes into spring, summer, fall, and winter menus. with such a bounty of fresh ingredients at her disposal, Beverly is able to make the most of her region's seasonal differences, subtle as they may sometimes seem. Recipes through the seasons include:
Summer Recipes to Cool the Soul
Fall Recipes to Excite the Senses
Winter Recipes to Warm the Heart
With The Hali'imaile General Store Cookbook, Beverly is finally giving all those locals and out-of-towners (including celebrities like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sharon Stone, and Alice Cooper) the recipes they've been begging for the past twelve years. True to her hospitable, down-to-earth style, Beverly hopes that "every single copy gets food-stained, dog-eared, and, most of all, enjoyed!"
Beverly Gannon worked as a road manager for entertainers Liza Minelli and Ben Vereen before she decided to embark on a culinary career. After Le Cordon Bleu and classes with Jacques Pépin and Marcella Hazan, Beverly settled in Maui with her husband Joe and their three daughters and began a successful catering company. Beverly and Joe opened the Hali'imaile General Store in 1988 and Joe's Bar & Grill in 1995.
Bonnie Friedman is the owner of Grapevine Productions, a Maui public relations firm, and a writer.

The surgeons listed above are members of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, licensed by the state of New Jersey and certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS).
Choose Your Plastic Surgeon Carefully
Remember, any licensed physician is legally allowed to advertise as a "cosmetic" surgeon, even if he or she has no formal surgical training. Your body is nothing to take chances with, so avoid the risk. Selecting a board-certified plastic surgeon from this list is your assurance that your doctor has the highest quality training and advanced surgical skills.
ABPS Certification and ASAPS Membership Matters
The ABPS is recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties to certify doctors in the specialty of plastic surgery. Following medical school, ABPS-certified plastic surgeons must have completed a minimum of 5 years of surgical training, including an accredited plastic surgery residency program. Members of ASAPS must be in at least their third year of active practice following ABPS certification.
