Interview: Nico Vega – Playing with Crash Kings at Vinyl July 25th!
Nico Vega is a way of life. They are 3 people who play music together and write as a band helping each other develop ideas. The root of the music is the relationship between this trio. Nico Vega is all about collaboration.
Nico Vega represents a modern day saint. She represents people and unity. She fights for all of us and teaches us to fight for each other. She is an idea that has evolved into a message and she fuels us in our bellies.
We got the chance to speak to Nico Vega about their upcoming album and performances and this is what they had to say!
Your song "Beast" was featured on the trailer for a video game and then your music exploded, what was that like for you guys?
It's been really nice; it's been a resurrection for sure for a song that we thought was part of our history. It's been really great and fun and we've all enjoyed this whole new journey, it's been awesome. It gives you confidence when people believe in what your doing.
What has been one of your most memorable shows?
We played Red Rocks not too long ago with Imagine Dragons and that was an incredible setting and a day I'll never forget.
If you could play at any venue with anyone, who would it be with and where would you play?
I guess I would want to play with The White Stripes if they were to come back together and I'd want it to be at Red Rocks.
You guys are releasing an album in the near future, how is this album going to be different than your first full-length album?
Everything we do is different from everything else we do. Anyone who knows the band really well won't say it's out of left field because they know how we are and the way that we write but at the same time if someone's looking for something like the first record that's not what they are going to find with the second one. I would say some of it is a little more poppy but there is some obscure stuff as well. I think it's a great record.
When you guys are playing a live show, how do you guys connect with your audience?
I am extremely intimate with people, I like intimate settings even more than big stages most of the time. But that is also not true because I like to move around a lot. I like to connect with people by being honest with my work.
What are three things that you absolutely have to bring with you while being on tour?
My baby, that's the most important thing. I also really like dark chocolate and then I would say I have to have a toothbrush. Three things I cannot live without.
What are three songs that you have had on repeat recently?
I always play that song "Open" off the album Woman by Rhye. I do put that song on repeat all the time for Arrow (my baby). There is also a song called "Joshua Giraffe" by Raffi- total kids song but it's the coolest kid song you've ever heard and it's really creative. I keep that on repeat and I laugh every time I listen to it. My third one is Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap. I can listen to that song 100 times in a row and I can turn it up and it puts me in a trance.
As you guys have grown as a band, have you guys had any strange fan encounters?
Last night, there was a fight out front and some people couldn't get into the show. They had gotten inside but tried to sneak something in and the bouncers pulled them out and this girl started going crazy. This girl actually bit the bouncer and started kicking him. The cops had to come and it was awful. Crazy stuff happens all the time but for the most part people are pretty loving and cool.
What is your ultimate goal for the band?
Oh man, just really love what we are doing and enjoy each other. That's all I could ever ask for.
Promised to be a stellar show, don't miss out on Nico Vega performing at Vinyl on July 25th alongside Crash Kings. Secure your tickets below!

Thousands of Italy's private beaches kept their parasols closed in peak summer season Friday in a symbolic protest against a new European Union directive that could force many to shut down. Managers of the estimated 30,000 private beaches that cover around a quarter of the coastline – ranging from simple shacks to full-blown outdoor entertainment venues with nightclubs, restaurants and pools – are up in arms. The European Union says that it wants licenses for the private beaches auctioned off in a transparent manner starting in 2016, but operators say that could stop investment and force many of the 600,000 workers in the sector out of a job. Under the current system which critics say is open to corruption, the state grants six-year licenses without any auction and with automatic renewal. "We're not talking about auctioning off the beaches, it's companies that are going to be auctioned off," said Fabrizio Fumagalli, manager of the Med resort in Ostia near Rome – a bar and restaurant complex with a few dozen sunbeds. "Everything you see here I built myself with many sacrifices and after many years. It's not like I'm going to pack up and set up shop somewhere," he said. Adding to the sense of gloom in the sun are the effects of the recession in Italy, which Fumagalli says has brought down beach visits by around 25 percent and bar and restaurant takings by up to 50 percent at his establishment. Access to the Med beach costs 8 euros ($10) on weekdays and 12 euros at weekends – roughly the going rate in Ostia, the closest beach resort to Rome on a shoreline almost entirely taken over by private resorts. Supporters say private beaches help keep tidy large stretches of coastline that local authorities are failing to clean up but opponents say they have effectively privatized some of the most picturesque parts of Italy. "Of course today it's a bit uncomfortable having the umbrella closed. The sun is really strong. But I agree with their protest," said Sergio Falcione, a 72-year-old retired tram driver, as he squinted in the glare on his sunbed. "What should Europe do? Europe should stay out of it," said Falcione, who has been coming to this same stretch of beach for more than 30 years. "What would we do without private beaches? There would be no bar, no toilets, no drinking water. It would be like 40 years ago when people used to come to the beach and eat pasta. I really don't like the idea," he said. "The public beach is so dirty," he said, pointing to a couple of ramshackle shelters set up by some homeless people living next to the sea. But Maria, a 79-year-old Ostia resident sunbathing on the public beach who declined to give her last name, complained about the private resorts. "They're expensive! The private beaches are nice but they've taken over," said Maria. "They should stop charging an entrance fee and just charge for the services. But nothing's going to change. I'm sure of it. "I would like it if they closed up but it's not going to happen," she said. Fumagalli defended his sector, saying it was now an Italian tradition that provided services for all social classes and warned that auctions for beach licenses could be a boon for organized crime and anonymous multinationals. "There is no country in the world that has these kinds of services! They're not just for the rich but also for normal people. This is a tradition. It's like Neapolitan pizza made in a wood-fired oven. We should defend it."

Asked to choose from 4 issues that keep them up at night, a plurality 34% of CMOs cite the creation of sustainable and engaging customer relationships and improving the customer experience as their top concern, according to data provided to MarketingCharts from a recent Korn Ferry survey.
Aside from this worry, CMOs also are concerned about staying ahead and taking advantage of digital technology trends such as social and mobile (27%), per the study, as well as by their (in)ability to demonstrate marketing's ROI (26.5%).
The question of marketing's value and ROI has been well-documented in research of late. For example, studies have found that:
Given all of that, 2 in 3 marketers responding to an Adobe survey last year agreed that there is now more pressure to show return on investment on marketing spend, with 8 in 10 feeling that it will be much (29%) or somewhat (50%) more important for their marketing function to prove business impact and/or ROI in the next 12 months.
Indeed, presented with 4 options and asked to indicate which they feel is the biggest contributing factor to low CMO tenure when compared to other C-suite functions, a majority 57% of respondents to the Korn Ferry survey indicated the primary reason to be an inability to directly connect marketing efforts to tangible business outcomes.
Meanwhile, other top concerns have also been cropped up in recent research. For example, two-thirds of CMOs surveyed by IBM for a study released last year said they feel underprepared for social media, and more than 8 in 10 feel unprepared for the explosion of data. And in a study released by PwC, US CEOs named tech advances the most externally disruptive business force. Notably, only 36% believed that the marketing/brand management function is "well prepared" to make the changes necessary to capitalize on the transformative global trends.
On a more encouraging note: while the CMOs responding to the Korn Ferry surveys are most concerned about customer relationships and experience, research also shows that customer experience is marketers' most exciting opportunity this year. So there's that…
About the Data: The Korn Ferry survey was fielded among 215 marketing executives.

Rick Nolan, a DFL candidate for Congress in Minnesota's 8th Congressional District, picked up a key endorsement today. Former Eveleth Mayor and long-time Minnesota state Rep. Joe Begich backed Nolan's bid. The endorsement will carry some weight on the Iron Range, a DFL stronghold that could determine the DFL nominee.
"With unemployment across the Range and throughout the Eighth District in double digits, with hardworking middle class families losing jobs and homes and hope, Iron Rangers need a leader and a champion again in Washington, and Rick Nolan's the one," Begich said in a news release.
Nolan, who served in Congress between 1975-1981, is vying for the DFL endorsement against former state Sen. Tarryl Clark and Duluth City Council member Jeff Anderson. The eventual nominee is hoping to challenge GOP Rep. Chip Cravaack. Cravaack is serving in his first-term after his surprising upset of DFL Rep. Jim Oberstar.
One outstanding question is whether Nolan or Cravaack will live in the 8th. The courts are expected to release new set of political maps in February that will change the makeup of the state's eight congressional districts.

The Alternative Sentencing Program allows offenders the opportunity to maintain their employment and / or education / treatment. These programs are carefully supervised and include monetary fees, which shall be determined by a case assessment. The Work Search Program provides the offender the opportunity to search for employment while serving a jail sentence and must be authorized by the court. The Work Search Program is an extension of the Work Release Program and is allowed only when bed space is available. Even though the courts may have issued written recommendation to participate in a program, the Denver Sheriff's Department has final approval on all individual's acceptance on a case by case basis.
Only those individuals who have been referred by the court should fill out the Alternative Sentencing Program application. Applications cannot be completed more than one week prior to the defendant's remand date.
The criteria for the Work Release Program include, but are not limited to the following:
If you are paid weekly, you are required to have one week's worth of room and board fees and the cost of one UA on your inmate account prior to placement on the program. If you are paid biweekly, you are required to have the cost of two week's worth of room and board fees and the cost of one UA on your inmate account prior to placement on the program.
If you are required to wear electronic monitoring, you will be required to have the initial start up fee prior to placement on the program.
Work Search participants and Education/Treatment Release participants are required to have the cost of two UA's on their inmate account prior to placement on the program.
Random drug tests are conducted on a weekly basis and cost the inmate $5 per test. If the result is positive, the inmate is considered in serious violation of the program and may be returned to general population in the main jail and no longer eligible for work release.
Inmates are not allowed to leave their place of employment for any reason, unless pre-approved. This includes lunch breaks, if the place of employment does not have a cafeteria, the work release program will provide the inmate with a sack lunch.

Australians plan on doing 35 per cent of their Christmas shopping online, according to a new survey, and about half don't care whether it's from an Australian or overseas site.
An Ernst & Young survey of 625 consumers found 46 per cent think it doesn't matter whether the site is Australian or international. In fact global giants eBay and Amazon were the most successful online stores among those surveyed. eBay was particularly popular among men.
When judging the reputation of a business, 47 per cent considered value for money number one versus 24 per cent who believe 'Australian owned' is most important.
"Previously 'Australian made' would invoke an element of national pride but it has a different transactional value now," Ernst & Young's customer leader, advisory, John Rolland, says.
While one-quarter of those surveyed said they were increasing the amount they spent shopping online for Christmas presents from last year, two-thirds (66 per cent) say that they would rather go to a store than buy online.
Rolland says today's customer is more concerned about their shopping experience. More than half of those surveyed (52 per cent) say they sometimes won't shop online because of delivery time.
"It is not simply a case of 'if we build it, they will come'," he says. "Online shoppers can be unforgiving. If you don't have the basics right at the outset, people will abandon your site at the very first step - and you'll have to work doubly hard to get them to come back."
During the recent "Click Frenzy" phenomenon people signed up in droves but the technology couldn't support the numbers. "While it's easy to see why the concept has been successful overseas, it also clearly shows us customer experience online is critical," he says.
Fifty-four per cent of customers surveyed thought Australian retailers should offer the same prices as overseas. "While clearly important, price is not the end game," Rolland says.
Customers want Australian stores to have 'shorter delivery times' (51 per cent) and to reduce hidden costs/fees (47 per cent).
When judging the success of online shopping sites, the key was having a range of products (48 per cent) followed by cheaper/reasonable/lowest prices.

We've had a perfect holliday at Clara's appartement. it's at a perfect location. They were is a great host and was very helpfull with everything. The appartement was very clean and perfect . We can advise people to spend their holliday in this great place.
One thing there is no free parking place!
Fam. Dekker from holland
My daughter and I had a very pleasant and comfortable stay at room Incanto, owned by Clara Moroni. We were there for fourteen days.
The room was spacious and clean, the bed was comfortable. We had enough space for our suitcases and we could still move around. There are some other rooms in the appartment, and there is a very tiny kichen, to be shared with the other residents.
In the neighbourhood there are two supermarkets and enough shops to buy our daily needs. At Re di Roma we had the best ice-cream. Plenty of people to testify, because it was always very busy!
A small downside was that our room was directly positioned above a MacDonald's, with sometimes very noisy people in front of it. But with the windows closed and the airco switched on, it didn't keep us from sleeping. The room faces the Via Appia Nuova, and there was always loud traffic (why are Romans honking their horns so much?), so we had to close the windows anyway when going to sleep.
Although the appartment is conveniently between two metrostops, we used the metro only twice. The metro is far too crowded to be comfortable! Better to take tram no.3 and there are also plenty buslines stopping nearby.
Clara was very attentive to our needs and she is a pleasant person to chat with. We are very satisfied with the quality of service. We would certainly recommend this accomodation to friends and family.
Gute Lage, zu Fuß alle Sehenswürdigkeiten erreichbar. Zimmer sauber und für reine Übernachtungen völlig ausreichend. Frühstück ausreichend, wenn man mit süssem Frühstück auskommt. Mitbringen von Lebensmitteln z.B. normale Brötchen, Brot, Aufschnitt ect. möglich, da Kühlschrank vorhanden. Abwicklung völlig unkompliziert, Gastgeber jederzeit telefonisch erreichbar. Parkmöglichkeiten vorhanden (Parkhaus fußläufig erreichbar). Als reine Übernachtungsmöglichkeit empfehlenswert.

The room was pleasant, clean, realy nice. The vouchers, we got for breakfast, gave us a breakfast at a small café. For North-Europeans, the breakfast was a little bit tiny. Further absolutly no complains, tnx!!!
The room is perfect! Clara is a very nice host and tells you a lot. The room is clean, quiet and has a very good bed and your private bathroom is clean as well. You receive enough (clean) towels. The room is very well situated near Termini (bus/metro/tram). Italian breakfast included.
In the area there are a lot of restaurants and gelateria´s! A perfect place to stay and visit Rome!
Clara is a lovely,friendly host. The B&B was spotlessly clean and the rooms finished to a high standard. The location was also superb with metro(line A-3stops from Termini the central railway station where all airport buses arrive & depart),tram & bus connections 5minutes walk away.
We enjoyed being part of the Italian breakfast scene at the Dolceamaro cafe with delicious coffee & croissant which Clara very kindly includes in the price of the room. If you are looking to get away from the hotel scene at an affordable price this is the place. Grazie Clara.
Before arriving, the contact with Clara is very easy. She replies very quick and speaks very good English.
We arrived in Roma in the evening, Clara had been patiently waiting until we got to their lovely house, she immediately made us feel right at home. The rooms themselves are very convenient; spacious, comfortable and clean, there's wifi, extra pillows and a neat clean bathroom with a clean towel set every 3 days.
The breakfast was included; all amenities for a sweet Italian breakfast were there, but you could also make your own in the fully equipped kitchen, which we preferred nutrition-wise;). Since the kitchen was a bit small, Clara gave us her business card and for the whole week, we could have breakfast at a nice cafe downstairs simply by showing it. Of course, a great coffee was part of the deal! Had a great time overall. The only slight negative I can squeeze out, is that if people are talking in the hallway or kitchen, you can hear it in the room. But hey, there's only four rooms in this very nice B&B!
The location is very nice. 5 mins walk from the metro and a 15 mins walk from the Colloseum. The B&B is located right on the corner of a nice shopping street, but once you get inside, it is a lovely little Italian world on its own. We had the benefit of our room being located right next to the patio that everyone in the B&B has access to. The whole time we saw no one there, just the palm trees and beautiful plants. Great spot to start your day, breakfast outside with the doors open!
Overall, good value for a good price! Will be back for sure. Thanks Clara (and Mariana!)
Ha sido un placer la estancia en este apartamento. Todo perfecto. Muy limpio, todo en condiciones, y muy bien atendidos por clara. Y gracias a Paolo por habernos esperado hasta tan tarde a causa de la hora de vuelo. El servicio de taxi estupendo.
La cama comodisima, el baño muy limpio y bien servido el desayuno. El metro a dos minutos andando.
Muchas gracias, si vuelvo otra vez a Roma, espero, repetiré en este apartamento.
Un 9'80 de nota sobre 10
Excelente, Clara y Paolo son muy amables. El piso es muy acogedor y cómodo además está muy bien ubicado. Sin duda regresaríamos.
Unterkunft ( Zimmer und Bad) ok, Küche etwas klein - für uns ok, da wir allein waren. Zimmer zur Straße etwas laut, ansonsten empfehlenswert. Gastgeber leider nicht persönlich kennengelernt, aber am Telefon sehr nett.

"This is my mother's recipe, which we have had almost every Christmas for 60 years. The only difference is that she uses 6 large tea bags and doesn't bother straining the spices. If they get scooped into the cup, just drink around them. The fragrance of this spiced tea means Christmas to me and it is truly a wonderful holiday tradition."

The grid of charming streets in the Mile End is chalk full of funky vintage shops, including an incredible music store called Sonorama (260 Bernard West) which sells an impressive collection of vinyl.
Kiss in a Gay Bar
Gay kissing in a bar? In Montreal, it's encouraged! Just like when Stephane & Hugh of #MontrealBoy locked lips at Complex Sky in the Gay Village. Have you check out Episode 1 & 2 of Montreal Boy: Some Strings Attached yet? Watch them on LogoTV.com/MontrealBoy

I think this was great, but used it together with the Slick Water preshave lotion. So it is tough for me to distinguish if there is much a difference between the products I currently use versus this one to see how much of difference this makes.4

Catholic Charities Brings Hope to Low-Income Pregnant Moms and Works to Reduce Co-Sleeping Deaths
MILWAUKEE, Wis. - According to the 2013 Fetal Infant Mortality Review, Milwaukee's infant mortality rate is at crisis levels, due to premature births, congenital frailties, and unsafe sleeping conditions. When compared globally, Milwaukee's infant mortality rate is worse than 77 countries.
Catholic Charities is one nonprofit focused on reducing this infant mortality rate by improving the prenatal care that low-income moms receive and educating soon-to-be parents about the dangers of unsafe sleeping conditions.
According to Jessica St. Martin-Trejo, one of Milwaukee County's Catholic Charities support coordinators, "Education is so critical when it comes to preventing co-sleeping deaths. We know so much more than we did even ten years ago about what is considered a safe sleeping environment. So if a pregnant teen asks her mom for advice in this regard, the advice she receives could be outdated and not what we consider safe by today's standards."
"Today, we recommend that there are no toys, bumper pads or heavy blankets left in the crib with a baby, that the baby always lay on his or her back, and that an adult never sleeps together with an infant."
"If a soon-to-be mom doesn't have a crib, we'll connect her with community resources that provide discounted or free pack 'n plays."
Catholic Charities also makes it a priority to meet on a regular basis with low-income moms to ensure they are getting the prenatal care they need and that they are eating right so that their baby can be carried to full-term. Once the baby arrives, Catholic Charities again works to make sure that baby is breastfeeding ok or that the mom has formula for the baby to thrive.
Tracey is a new mom whose pregnancy didn't have an easy beginning. Her boyfriend refused to accept any responsibility for the baby and left Tracey. Without her boyfriend's income to help with rent and utilities, Tracey was soon living on the streets of Milwaukee, even though she continued working full time. She found temporary respite in a homeless shelter, but was six months pregnant and frantic with worry about her situation and the health of the baby.
Then her mom told her to call Catholic Charities. Tracey says she immediately connected with St. Martin-Trejo.
"What a difference that made. We talked about how I needed to take better care of myself for the well-being of me and my baby. I felt good to not feel so alone," said Tracey.
Jessica also helped Tracy to enroll in the First Breath program to help her stop smoking. She then did some advocating for Tracy with the WIC office so that Tracey could be eligible for WIC and W2 assistance, making her life much easier.
With her newfound confidence, Tracey got her own smoke-free apartment and her beautiful baby girl, Miranda, was born healthy and happy.
Today, Jessica continues to make weekly home visits to Tracey and Miranda. "We talk about child development, where I am with my personal and parental goals, and Jessica is quick to answer any questions I have," Tracey said.
"At first everything was overwhelming, but I stayed with it. Catholic Charities was there for me when it felt like I had no one."
Fr. Dave Bergner, the executive director of Catholic Charities, says, "Last year, Catholic Charities helped a record 27,647 people, of all faiths in the 10 counties of southeastern Wisconsin, and offered over 8,410 hours of pregnancy support and adoption services throughout this area, regardless of people's income levels.
"In addition to providing pregnancy support and adoption services, Catholic Charities also offers mental health counseling and case management. We bring hope to the poor, the frail and the vulnerable. That hope then ripples out to their families, co-workers and communities."
People interested in supporting Catholic Charities initiatives to support those in need can visit Catholic Charities web page at www.ccmke.org. Donations are also being accepted via text by dialing 85944 and texting "Moment" to make a $10 donation that is added to their cell phone bill. Ninety-six percent of all Catholic Charities clients live under the poverty level. Catholic Charities has been serving people of all faiths in southeastern Wisconsin since 1920.

Property values rise for local homeowners
RIVERSIDE, Calif. - The median price of a single-family home in Riverside County edged up nearly 1 percent last month, following a pattern of general price increases throughout the state, the California Association of Realtors reported today.
The median home price countywide was $228,900 in September, compared to $227,740 in August, according to CAR.
On a year-to-year level, prices were 14.5 percent higher. In September
2011, the median price of a single-family dwelling was $199,890, CAR data
Statewide, the median price was $345,000 last month, compared to
$343,820 in August -- up three-tenths of a percentage point. The year-over-year
increase was 19.5 percent. In September 2011, the median price of a single-
family unit in California was $288,700.
It's the seventh straight month median home prices have risen across the
state, according to CAR. The median represents the point at which half of
homes sell above a price, and the other half below it.
According to CAR's Unsold Inventory Index, the average home in
California is on the market for 39 days before it sells. In Riverside County,
it's 46 days.
Statewide, there is a 3.7 months supply of unsold homes, according to
the CAR index.
"For the state, at 3.7 months of supply, unsold inventory is still less
than half what it would be in a normal market," said CAR Vice President and
Chief Economist Leslie Appleton-Young. "As a result of the constrained supply
at the moderate and lower end of the market, sales of homes priced under
$200,000 dropped nearly 28 percent, and homes priced $200,000-$300,000 fell
more than 15 percent in September.
"By contrast, in the upper price range, where inventory isn't as much
of an issue, sales of homes priced $400,000-$500,000 rose more than 14 percent,
and those priced above $500,000 increased more than 15 percent," she said.

Liveaboard Sail upkeep
So i'm living on my first sailboat a 29 C&C. I have it at a floating dock which is amazingly simple for the days i work long hours. Unfortunately i dont get to take her out as much as either of us would like. I run the engine About once a week but rarely leave the comfort of my dock, as i dont like solo trips much.
Anyways my question is since i dont get the sails up as often as i should, what are some good maintenance tips for my rigging and sails themselves?. I have a roller furled genoa that has some of the stiching pulling out of the sunbrella. Also what do yall use to clean the sunbrealla material when it starts to look dingy?
Re: Liveaboard Sail upkeep
oohh .. excelent question Im watching this one too.
Re: Liveaboard Sail upkeep
Is it fading or just dirty ??
Re: Liveaboard Sail upkeep
Its got what looks like mold. Its very humid here so every morning there's a layer of moisture. I don't wanna use something that may damage or fade the sumbrella like concentrated bleach. So maybe a detergent?
Re: Liveaboard Sail upkeep
Take the sails off the boat, give them a wash in mild detergant. Rinse with fresh water.
Remove running rigging, rinse with fresh water, soak in tub with mild detergant, rinse in more fresh water.
Rinse all topsides, decks, and deck hardware in fresh water.
Go up the rig with a bucket and fresh water, wipe down all standing rigging, fittings, etc with a sponge or wet rag.
Just b/c you're not using them, doesn't mean they're not seeing dirt and salt from the air.
Re: Liveaboard Sail upkeep
If you're at a dock, just drop them and send them out to be professionally cleaned. Their machines do much better getting inside seams, etc. Then keep them folded and bagged until you plan to go sailing. Even in a dock locker is better than furled and rarely used. If you do leave them up on the furler, they should be wrapped very tightly and the clew should wrap twice around the sail before cleating/tailing the line. It will limit, but not prevent water from lying between the wraps.
Heck, the best solution is to get out sailing more often. :)
Re: Liveaboard Sail upkeep
Once upon a time, I actually took my main n jib to the Laundromat! Gentle wash, gentle dry..got rid of the mold. It was not a big risk then since they were both very old and I was intending to replace them soon anyway. Larger sails would probably not fit, but they had an 'industrial sized' washer/dryer..just sayin
Re: Liveaboard Sail upkeep
I have found that in the past after almost going crazy that dawn dish detergent is a boaters best friend when it comes to cleaning .... it works great on sails and is a mild soap ... I get a lot of the small brown bats where I am at and it takes the stains out with just a little scrubbing if they get in the sails and leave their calling cards ....
another good product that seems to work good is the awesome you can get at a dollar store ....
Also I raise my sails once a month just to see if the critters are back and left any calling cards ...
Hope this helps some
Re: Liveaboard Sail upkeep
I just cleaned some cockpit vinyl (stamoid) with a mixture or Woolite and Oil Eater Degreaser. Worked pretty well and seemed not to be corrosive like bleach. The degreaser is biodegradable, I believe.
Re: Liveaboard Sail upkeep
All great ideas.
I just sent mine out to be re-stitched and cleaned. My sunbrella was coming off as well.
I prefer Ivory dish soap.

This weekend was horrible! It wasn't about me!!!! Usually when Mom & Dad take me places it's because I get to play flyball or show off my obedience talents in Rally. But this weekend I just had to sit around and behave nicely while REBEL got to have all the fun. How boring is that?!
Mom & Dad took me and Rebel to Codorus State Park in Pennsylvania. It was so pretty and there was so much to do. I really wanted to run into the lake and roll in the dirt, but Mom said no because I'd just gotten a bath. And THEN Rebel got to go Dock Diving!!!! SO UNFAIR! Just cause I think jumping off of the end of a dock is scary doesn't mean that I shouldn't get to have any fun!
Mom says it's only fair that Rebel gets some fun since he always has to sit around and be bored and behave while I run flyball. But I don't think it's very fair or very much fun.
So this month we went to Lebanon, PA to FDA/PBA's Viva Los Flyball and that's where I got my groove on! (I'd say "grove back" but I don't think I ever had it before).
Mom was really worried because when they got to the tournament site there was a treat vendor parked right next to the box in one of the rings. I can't say I blame her, I've been really tempted in the past to go check out tasty, yummy treats instead of doing my flyball job. So, she ran me against Magnum in Single Dog racing. And boy did I show her!!!! Mom didn't understand how to play flyball with the lights, but all I knew was that I was going to run down the lane as FAST as I could and shock everyone!
And I did.
I ran a 4.756!!!! Pretty fast, huh?
Well, if that wasn't cool enough, I decided that this flyball gig was pretty cool. And the faster I did it, the more treats Mom gave me when I got back to the finish line! So I ran my little heart out all weekend. I did so well, I got to get my next title -- Flyball Dog Champion-Gold (FDCh-G). Pretty cool, huh? And best of all, our awards were presented by ELVIS!!!!
Mom just can't wait to get back in the ring with me. We're running on an uber fast team in May. I just love running with all my buddies. Cash and Bravo and Bitter will be there, and we're going to just ROCK ON!!!
Happy Birthday To me!
Can you tell I'm excited about my birthday? Mom left me with grandmom today since she had to go to work. But I'll have tons of fun cause grandmom always takes me on fantastic walkies! Oooo, my FAVORITE!

text: Home > Nation VP Binay denies Nancy doesn't grant interviews ABS-CBN News Posted at Apr 25 2013 05:27 PM | Updated as of Apr 26 2013 01:27 AM Share Save Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn MANILA - Vice-President Jejomar Binay denies that his daughter, United Nationalist Alliance senatorial candidate Nancy Binay, does not want to grant interviews. Speaking to reporters, Binay apologized that his daughter has turned down an invitation to join a media forum next Wednesday. "Pasensya ka na. Ang daming appointment nun. Nanggaling kaming Zamboanga, et cetera, et cetera," he said in an interview after welcoming 30 overseas Filipinos arriving from Kuwait. He added: "Basta hindi totoo na ayaw niyang magpa-interview. Pero there are commitments na kailangang sundin." Nancy Binay has repeatedly turned down requests to join debates against fellow senatorial candidates, saying she is too busy with the campaign. A satirical blog post earlier joked that her lawyer even filed for a temporary protection order that will shield her from joining debates. The vice-president said he is unfazed by the negative sentiments against his daughter, saying that it is part of any campaign. He denied that his daughter has many detractors, noting that Nancy is now tied at 3rd-4th places with Cynthia Villar in the last Social Weather Stations survey. Binay also rejected a reporter's question that Nancy is spending a lot in the campaign. "Ay susmaryosep. Sa'yo lang nanggaling yun! Sa'yo ko lang narinig yun! Walang nagsasabi ng ganun! Ang sinasabi, (dahil) anak ko raw yun," he said. He added that UNA is no longer paying for surveys after SWS upped the fee for subscribers.

Why do we not have background checks for alcohol purchases? Wouldn't it make sense to just do a quick check on someone that is purchasing beer to find out if he as any DUI convictions? Or if the purchaser has someone in his or her household that is "unstable?" Shouldn't we have a "waiting period" before you can purchase? And should we limit the purchases to X ounces per month?
Shouldn't we outlaw "high proof" alcohol products, such as anything greater than wine (e.g., 14.5%). Does anyone really NEED 80 Proof, 120 Proof, or 180 proof alcohol products? Please give me ONE GOOD REASON why you need Everclear, or Whiskey, etc.
And the stats above are just for deaths. Fetal alcohol syndrome, alcoholism, wives/girlfriends beat to a pulp when the husband/boyfriend has too much to drink, date rapes, alcohol related diseases, days lost work, etc. - the cost to society is astronomical.
Or maybe we should just attribute the fault not to the product but to the malfeasance of the abuser. On all fronts.

They tried outlawing alcohol once, it just moved underground. Same thing would happen with guns, with the banning or heavily restriction of guns, the government would create outlaws at an exorbitant rate.
What you say is very reasonable logic, unfortunately the anti's don't listen to or understand logic, they have their goals, and they will lie, cheat, and manipulate every statistic they can to justify their unconstitutional actions.
I think you missed an important one (though not related to drinking)
15th person dies after truck crash in Texas - CBS News
Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.
Two of my family members were killed by a DUI driver. Were there protesters against the alcohol companies? Politicians speaking out? I don't think so. Did I rally against Anheiser Busch because they manufactured an inert product that didn't drink itself? No.
Be safe everyone...cars don't drink drive themselves (even though they do according to anti's logic)
I have had the exact same reaction but with medical malpractice/accidents. Thousands upon thousands are killed each year because doctors prescribe the wrong meds, medications interact because research isn't done, there are pharmacy mistakes etc yet every other commercial on television and most ads in print magazines are some new, amazing wonder drug that you simply MUST take to enhance your life.
"It is your evil that will be sought by us. With every breath we will hunt them down. Each day we will spill their blood, until it rains down from the skies. Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles that every man from every faith can embrace." -McManus twins Boondock Saints
Lets all send letters to the hill requesting regulation on alcohol, hopefully we will shift enough focus off gun controll it will no longer be an issue. No wait, alcohol nevek killed 20 kids in a school house. Well I had hope for a few minuets.

Recipe: Sourdough Starter
Day One:
Mix together
- 50g whole rye or wheat flour
- 50g whole wheat flour
- 100g cool water (either tap water that has been sitting for several hours or bottled water. Water straight from the tap can have a high chlorine content that will kill off the tiny number of organisms present in the flour.)
Total: 200g starter
It's good to start with whole rye flour because it has higher trace levels of the desired microorganisms in it, but just whole wheat will also work fine.
Let sit for 48 hours at 60-65F. If you don't have a suitable spot, you can leave it in the fridge for the first 12 hours and then put it in the coolest spot in the house. The window sill at night is great for this step. The important thing here is to prevent undesirable organisms from invading your starter. Once the colony is established it will be too acidic for anything but the yeast and bacteria you desire. Clean hands and tools are essential.
It will do NOTHING for the first 24 hours, but it should double in size by the end of 48. Seemingly, from nothing, you have begun something. Should smell slightly alcoholic, but not necessarily sour. If it gets fuzzy with mold, pitch it and start over; and wash your hands next time.
Day Three, etc:
Discard half (or build a second starter for a friend) and feed with:
- 50g rye, whole wheat or white flour
- 50g water around 75F
Total: 200g starter
Let sit for 24 hours at room temperature (75F).
It should double in size by the end of the 24 hours.
After a few days of regular feeding, it will begin to ripen more quickly. Once it reaches a point where it doubles in size in 8-12 hours, you can begin to think about baking with it, but your first loaves will be noticeably lacking in sourdough flavor. While you have built up a healthy colony of bread-raising yeasts, the bacterial colony that gives sourdough bread its distinctive flavor takes more time to develop. Now is a good time to work on patience, one of the most important characteristics of a good baker. With regular care and feeding the little guys will flourish.
You can skip all this nonsense if you know a baker who keeps a starter... just ask, they always have extra and you only need a little.
Ripeness: Your starter is ripe when it is bubbly and aromatic. There will be tiny soap-like bubbles. It will smell slightly alcoholic and taste noticeably sour. A pinch off the top will float in water. It should have some structure, like a thick batter. If it is watery and thin, with a layer of precipitated gluten on the bottom of the container, it is over fermented. Discard half and double the remainder before baking with it.
Care and Feeding: I keep my sourdough starter at 125% hydration (that is, for every 100g of flour there are 125g water). This recipe gives you a starter at 100% hydration. You don't have to convert it, but I like it better at 125%. I think it's easier to manage, because it's too loose to double in size like a 100% leaven does. The balance of acids produced is also slightly different and to my palate more pleasant.
The starter shouldn't spend all its life in the fridge. It's best not to refrigerate starter that's super ripe, since the bacteria will continue to work even at refrigerator temperatures and will continue to acidify the culture. As the pH drops the culture will become less habitable for the yeast and bacteria. For periods up to 36 hours, it's not a big deal, but it is not suitable for long term storage.
It is also not good to refrigerate a starter that has just been fed. In this case, the yeast and bacteria make up an exceedingly small portion of the overall volume and the culture is not acidic enough at this point to prevent other, undesirable microorganisms such as mold from infecting your culture.
If you want to take a break from baking you can convert your starter into a stiff starter (60g of water for every 100g flour) and let it ferment for a few hours before refrigerating. The lower hydration will keep the fermentation in check and it should keep for up to 3 weeks in this state. It will need refreshing before you bake with it again, but your colony should survive.

There are many criminal attorneys out there you can choose from, but Peter is one of the best attorneys that you should consider to work with and rely on. Since English is not my native language, I worried my communication with Peter would be a problem for my case. But Peter was very patient and putting extra effort to get things together. With his hard work, my case was not only dismissed but also he helped me to put a RO on the aggressor successfully. I am extremely satisfied with the result. Thanks Peter!

I have known Mr. Fitzpatrick for many years. Before there was a Domestic Partnership registry, Mr. Fitzpatrick assisted me and my spouse in sifting through the legal requirements to be sure we were protected as best we could be, since at that time there were no government protections. His sensitivity to our needs and his excellent research made us both feel assured that if something should happen to either of us, we would have the protections we would need to maintain our household and to care for each other, in sickness and in health!

Peter walked me through the maze of court bureaucracy and uncooperative police response to successfully obtain a 3 year restraining order against a violent homeless person whom the police refused to arrest "until there is blood or broken bones." At the hearing Peter successfully argued against a legal technicality that would have required a repeat of the entire intricate process of serving proper notice on a homeless peson. Thank you Peter.

When I first relocated to SF, my former landlord in San Diego withheld my deposit without warrant. Peter was awesome in dealing with them and secured a speedy and full recovery of my deposit. I only had to meet with him once and pass along all my information and description of the issue - and he took it from there! Totally professional and a pleasure to work with.
Posted by Renee
Peter has a lot of experience in criminal defense cases and is very passionate about what he does. His commitment really shows through his work. Peter was very helpful and thorough. I felt comfortable working with Peter because he was honest and dependable and always kept me well-informed about the progress of my case. Peter is an exceptional attorney, and I definitely recommend him for anyone in need of professional, legal service.

(IDAHO FALLS, ID) – An Idaho Falls man is accused of using brass knuckles to attack a woman Wednesday afternoon. 19-year-old Joel Roberts reportedly punched a 22-year-old woman during an argument. Police responded to the scene on the 1800-block of Balboa at around 4:30 p.m. Roberts, who was arrested on a felony charge of aggravated assault, was later booked into the Bonneville County Jail.

Ethnic minorities have both a higher prevalence diabetes and a high incidence of diabetes related complications. While these complications can be reduced or delayed by intensive management of hemoglobin A1c (A1C), blood pressure (BP), and lipids, control of risk factors among adults with DM in the US is suboptimal. Minority and underserved patients are more likely to have poorer control of diabetes and related risk factors for complications. The Look AHEAD trial has demonstrated improved risk factor control among overweight or obese diabetes patients who received an intensive lifestyle intervention at both one and four years after enrollment. Translating such findings into accessible and effective weight loss programs is a major public health challenge. We propose "Lifestyle interventions for Treatment of Diabetes" (LIFT Diabetes). The overall goal was to investigate two approaches to improving risk factor control; one which is modeled after Look AHEAD and is designed to achieve 7% weight loss and increase physical activity to > 175 minutes per week among minority and lower income diabetes patients via a 12-month, group based liefestyle intervention, using community health workers supervised by an interventionist. Participants had up to 4 group visits/month and up to 12 individual contacts/year. The other approach promoted Diabetes Self Management (DSM) by educating participants regarding health behaviors which lead to improved diabetes control; this arm was also 12 months, and is delivered in the clinic by intervention staff via monthly group visits and up to 12 individual contacts/year. We randomized 260 overweight or obese adults with diabetes to either model, and determine the impact on outcomes (UKPDS-estimated CVD risk, risk factor control), weight, physical activity, medication use, cost, resource utilization, and safety at 12 months, and after transitioning back to usual care, at 24 months. The hypotheses were that the community based intervention resulted in 10% relative reduction in CVD risk compared to clinic-based intervention; the interventions were equivalent with respect to adherence and participant satisfaction; and the community based intervention was associated with lower cost than the clinic based intervention. Translating evidence based, lifestyle strategies, and targeting minority and underserved patients, will yield, if successful, models for addressing diabetes-related health disparities.

Two golfing partners have beaten odds of one in 17 million by both shooting a hole-in-one on the same hole with consecutive shots.
Wayne Cameron and Colin Hurley achieved the feat on the 102m par 3 15th at the Wanaka Golf Club in perfect conditions yesterday.
The United States-based National Hole-In-One Registry calculates the odds of two golfers from the same group acing the same hole as 17 million to one.
Cameron, 59, said the achievement was "just bizarre".
"I'm glad we had a witness, otherwise it would have been a Tui ad."
It was the first hole-in-one for both men, who are regulars at the Otakou club, near Dunedin. It was also the first round on the course for the pair, who were preparing for a five-day, five-course tournament next week.
Gold Coast-based Hurley, 54, who plays off a handicap of 11, went off first.
"I just hit it, it bounced on to the green and went in," he said.
"There were clubs everywhere, high fives ... two other players stopped to congratulate us."
Cameron, who runs Ric's Fish and Chips, in Dunedin, and plays off 15, was inspired by his playing partner.
"I said, 'Oh well, you've won this bloody hole, I may as well just step up and hit it in the hole, too.'
"And that's what happened. Same shot. We just went off."
The men, who both used a pitching wedge for their aces, were planning a quiet celebration last night and contemplating framing the balls.
They were relieved the extraordinary double was witnessed by another pair on the course.
Two Australian golfers had consecutive holes-in-one on the same hole at The Lakes course last year, and there are a handful of recorded instances in the United States.

Spring Practice Primer: West Virginia Mountaineers
College football never ends, and during the next few weeks teams will be getting ready for the 2013 season in their spring practice sessions. Here's a look at the West Virginia Mountaineers and what they'll be working on this spring.
College football never ends, and during the next few weeks teams will be getting ready for the 2013 season in their spring practice sessions. Here's a look at the West Virginia Mountaineers and what they'll be working on this spring.
Spring practice began: March 10
Spring game: April 20
2012 record: 7-6 (4-5 Big 12)
Returning starters: Nine (three offense, six defense)
Behind a prolific offense, West Virginia stormed out of the gate to start the 2012 season, winning its first five games. During that month-long stretch, many were talking about the Mountaineers as a potential Big 12 champion and a contender for a spot in a BCS bowl. All eyes were on West Virginia's Air Raid offense, which often appeared like something out of a video game (70 points, 807 total yards, 656 passing yards against Baylor on Sept. 29). However, the next five games went exactly the opposite, as the Mountaineers lost all of them. West Virginia's defense was among the worst in the country, allowing an average of 38.1 points per game, 114th-best in the country in 2012. With only nine starters from 2012 returning, next year will be one filled with transition, and the spring will be essential in preparing inexperienced players for the fall.
The Least You Should Know About West Virginia This Spring
-- The three biggest pieces from West Virginia's offense in 2012 are gone, but quarterback is the most important. First and foremost, the departure of Geno Smith to the NFL will leave a massive void at the position. Last year, Smith completed 71.2 percent of his passes for 4,205 yards, 42 touchdowns and five interceptions for a 163.9 passing efficiency rating -- sixth-best in the country. Everywhere that coach Dana Holgorsen has been, quarterback play has been an essential piece in determining offensive success. In the past two seasons, Smith has been the unquestioned leader of Holgorsen's philosophy. Spring practice will be the first step in determining who will step up and be the next quarterback at West Virginia. The early favorites are senior Paul Millard and Ford Childress. Millard, a junior, is more experienced than Childress, who is a red-shirt freshman. Don't count out mid-semester enrollee Chavas Rawlins, an exciting freshman from Monessen, Pa. Millard is the only Mountaineer quarterback on the roster to have attempted a pass in his career, and is 16-of-34, with 211 passing yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions. Most of those plays came in back-up duty behind Smith. No matter who starts to separate himself from the rest of the pack in the spring, expect the quarterback competition to carry well into the fall.
-- In addition to determining the quarterback, West Virginia needs to figure out whom his targets will be. With the departures of wide receivers Tavon Austin, Stedman Bailey and J.D. Woods, West Virginia loses 289 receptions, 3,548 receiving yards and 41 receiving touchdowns. Coupled with transfers, five of West Virginia's top six wide receivers are gone. Needless to say, the cupboard is completely bare. Sophomore Jordan Thompson had a productive spring last year, but that translated into a quiet fall. He'll get the chance to become one of the premier wide receivers, based alone on the fact that he has some experience and knowledge of the playbook. Another favorite to get considerable practice reps with the first team is early enrollee and junior college transfer Kevin White, a 6-4, 210-pound target. Before four-star wide receiver Shelton Gibson arrives in the fall, look for mid-semester enrollee and true freshman Daikiel Shorts to attempt to get a jump start on assimilating into the offense. Once Gibson does get to Morgantown, however, he should figure prominently into the passing game.
-- It's not all offense that West Virginia needs to worry about in the spring. Don't forget that this Mountaineer team was one of the worst defensive units in the country last year. For as prolific as the offense was at times in 2012, the defense habitually ceded big plays. West Virginia ranked 118th in passing defense (312.5 yards per game) and 119th in passing efficiency defense (166.7). Defensive coordinator Keith Patterson takes over play-calling duties from associate head coach Joe DeForest, who is still with the Mountaineers. West Virginia returns six defensive starters, most notably sophomore safety Karl Joseph, the team's leading tackler in 2012 with 104 stops. Also returning for his second season in Morgantown is linebacker Isaiah Bruce, who registered 94 tackles in 2012, second-best on the Mountaineers. Another notable change for West Virginia was the hiring of Brian Mitchell as cornerbacks coach in January, replacing Daron Roberts. Even a modest improvement in the secondary would be a big step in the right direction for West Virginia, as it was the clear weakness on defense.

Good Old War @ Brighton Music Hall 12.10.11
photos by Alyssa Mastrocco (English)
Good Old War played Brighton Music Hall on December 10th to a sold-out house and, as expected, they brought it down. The opener, Val Emmich (better known as Jamie the coffee guy from 30 Rock – "I'm totally gay for Jamie!"), was a last minute addition to the tour, and played with only his own acoustic guitar and a second guitarist instead of his band, The Veeries. His songs were good, but I have the sneaking suspicion that he would go from good to Nickelback with a full band.
After setting up, Good Old War took the stage and everything was good. They played a solid mixture of their first two albums along with three new songs from Come Back as Rain, due out March 6th of next year. "Calling Me Names" was the most notable new track, with some experimentation with new harmonies and vocal overlaying, along with a ukulele. Their sound translates well from album to stage, but often depends on the house PA system. Brighton Music Hall tends to be bass-heavy and with Keith Goodwin's bass-via-Micro Korg set up, it so much bass that the speakers were crackling. Thankfully it was fixed quickly enough. Toward the end of their set, while Dan was tuning a guitar, Tim and Keith broke into Montell Jordan's 90s classic "This is How We Do it." Keith though he could get away with only the first line of the song, but he was mistaken when the crowd encouraged him to continue and he, surprisingly knew the whole first verse.
In homage to a recent Boston show where the PA failed and they had to play from the floor in the middle of the crowd, they played their last two songs, "Loud Love" and "While I'm Away" with just Dan on guitar, from the floor. Luckily their voices are strong enough to carry over the crowd and end the show on a really high note.
Look for Issue 27 for an interview with Dan about the new album!

Morrissey Hospitalized In Michigan
January 26, 2013 | Posted by
Billboard reports that Morrissey has been hospitalized in Royal Oak, Michigan. He was sent to the William Beaumont hospital "where he is undergoing tests for a suspected bladder infection", according to a representative.
He canceled a date in Flint, Michigan on January 24 and postponed two other shows. Several of the concerts had been rescheduled from last year when he stopped his October tour to spend time with his hospitalized mother.
The dates had been reported to be canceled and postponed, thanks to a "band illness." It will resume on Monday, unless Morrissey's condition causes another delay.

Property Address 230 N G Street Lake Worth, Fl 33460 and 228 N G Street Lake Worth, FL 33460.
on or about 1 April 2013, my realtor brought me to 230 N G Street Lake Worth, Fl 33460, a rental property where i was introduced to the listing agent Ezra Esquivel, he promptly brought me through the property, and during our tour he spent a good deal of time telling me how this neighborhood was " up and coming" meaning it was a great place for my daughter and I to live and that we would enjoy many years of pleasure living in this neighborhood. Ezra Esquivel, referred on many occasions' to the owner of the property, as " The Owners" Never disclosing the fact that he and his family were in fact the owners. As a realtor it was his responsibility to inform me that this neighborhood was in fact not " up and coming". As i found out after, from the Local Police, this was not a good neighborhood , not at all. Being unfamiliar, I trusted him
I rented 230 N G Street Lake Worth, Fl 33460 on 15 April 2013 gave the requested move in money ($4350), which represented first month, last month and a month security. This was received by Ezra Esquivel and promptly handed over to his father George Esquivel. I spent hundreds of dollars to move in. Within 30 days of living there, 228 N G Street Lake Worth, FL 33460, was burglarized twice and 230 N G Street Lake Worth, Fl 33460 (caser number 13-074276) was burglarized once. The police were notified immediately. the break-in at 230 N G Street Lake Worth, Fl 33460 was on 15 May, 2013 during the day light hours while i was at work, Keep in mind 230 N G Street Lake Worth, Fl 33460, is just 200 yards from the police dept. I informed the landlord and called the police upon my arrival at 230 N G Street Lake Worth, Fl 33460 aprox 5:30pm. As I was working with the police to determine what was missing, George & Lilia Esquivel, had the nerve to ask if the rent was sent off. This should have been the tell of how things were going to turnout for me.
Having several lengthy discussions with the police officer that arrived on the scene and later with the detective working this case, that this neighborhood was not safe for me and that my demographic would more than likely be a target for future problems. I furnished the police report, feel free to look up the officers name. I have a 14 year old daughter and was very much concerned for her safety in this neighborhood. With the information furnished by the police and the 3 burglaries that occurred within a 3 day period, I was deeply concerned for the safety of my daughter and myself. It would not be safe for me to stay here, if anything else happened to me or my daughter I would be devastated I then informed the landlord that I would be moving as fast as possible, I tried to appeal to his Parental side and asked that he refund my deposits and allow me to move to a safer place. At that moment he indicated he would. I found a new place and moved within 2 weeks time, this putting a great financial and emotional burden on me and my family. I returned on 27 May, 2013 to detail and clean the property to the condition i received it, and it was at this time George and Ezra Esquivel, started to tap dance about refunding my deposits., My gut told me this was going to happen and I still came back to clean up.
I tried to reason with him, stating that We were victims of a break in and now he was going to victimize us again, all he would say is "he needed to protect his investment" I showed him a picture of my daughter and told him this was the only investment i cared about. If you notice, I have not mentioned toe over $20,000.00 of my property that was stolen. Personal safety, is the number on reason to vacate any contract. I am posting this in hopes of saving others from renting from George Esquivel on any of his properties at 230 N G Street Lake Worth, Fl 33460 and 228 N G Street Lake Worth, FL 33460, I will wait the 30 day period and attempt a remedy in court.
13-074251, this is for 228 N G St Lake worth FL 33460 which is connected to 230 N G ST Lake worth FL 33460
Beware of Esquire Business Brokers Inc. This is owned by the Esquivels at 2300 w sample road Pompano Beach Fl 33073 and also own 300 S Australian Ave # 608 West Palm Beach FL

I am in Oz, so not sure of legality, but the e36 does have a sharp cut off for low beam and electric adjustment. I would never go back to halogens. I also have H1 HID for highs, but do find they are not that good for flicking on an off as they take about 5 seconds to fully warm up. So buy some good halogens for the highs - when you look for them, forget about claims for brightest etc, colour temperature is what you want to know. The 6000K are the closest to daylight and will give an intense white light, with a tinge of blue.
Look internationally and you will find them - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PIAA-...Q5fAccessories
For fogs, you can go past a good set of H1 halogens with 3000K (yellow) colour temp.
Post up some pics when you have finished.

Home > News & Events > News > Student Stories > HKS Student Explores Healthcare Access for Those Who Need it Most
Recent changes to healthcare coverage will require all health insurance providers to completely cover the cost of contraceptives for patients (including removing co-pays or other fees) by January 2013. This measure is part of an effort to remove cost as a barrier to women's access to birth control, preventative care services including prenatal care, screening for STDs, and counseling and equipment to encourage breast feeding.
Although the new legislation will facilitate access to health care for many women, one group with particularly high need is unlikely to benefit, low-income and homeless women. This past summer the Women and Public Policy Program(WAPPP), with support from the Roy Family Fellowship, enabled a Harvard Kennedy School student to analyze the specific issues resulting from this gap in coverage and access. Emily Polak, a second-year MPP student, conducted a survey for the Seattle Women's Commission evaluating access to healthcare for women living in Seattle's Tent City 3 and for those in longer-term shelters.
Polak found that access to many services – including mental and women's healthcare, vision and dental care, and prescription drugs – is lacking. Co-pay and other fees are too high for residents. Even sliding-scale fees are too high for someone without a regular income. Many clinics will not accept patients who cannot afford to pay, and others impose long wait periods on new patients without insurance. Residents often fear they will not be treated if they cannot provide an address to healthcare providers. Furthermore, information on health centers and access to bus routes that service medical clinics, hospitals, and social services offices is also limited, further impacting the accessibility of preventative care. Many patients instead elect to visit the ER for healthcare needs, effectively using the ER as a primary care physician since the ER is required to provide treatment.
As part of her project, Polak spent time tracking down and later compiling a set of resources to share with residents to help support their health care needs. This guide included information on free vision exams and glasses, free dental care including dentures, and free prenatal care. This resource manual will be especially helpful to Tent City 3 residents who have limited access to telephones, the internet, or other sources of information on clinics and health services, and should hopefully provide an alternative to ER visits for obtaining health care. She also produced a report with key findings, demographical data, and other information from her interviews, and plans to build upon this work for analyses of healthcare accessibility for homeless in other cities.
These are the piles of people's belongings, ready to be loaded onto moving trucks.
"Residents of Tent City 3 are required to relocate every 90 days, meaning further barriers to accessing health care since many host sites are far from the downtown clinics," said Polak.

Jul 22, 2012 - The Associated PressCHEYENNE -- The State Building Commission has voted to allow small exhibits in the tunnel leading into the State Capitol in Cheyenne.
The change made this week modifies a ban that the commission approved earlier preventing the public from protesting or showing displays in the tunnel linking the Capitol to the Herschler Building.
The ban came after complaints about an anti-abortion advocacy group made too much noise and took up too much space in the passageway.
The new policy sets up a process for the public to apply for permits to demonstrate in areas of the Capitol Complex.
The building commission is made up of the five elected statewide officials.
Secretary of State Max Maxfield says the commission should review the policy again next year.

The East
- By
- Ashley Clark
In Zal Batmanglij's humourless and fairly daft – but commendably gripping – thriller The East, co-writer Brit Marling stars as spunky former FBI agent Sarah Moss, now employed by slick anti-corporate terrorism firm Hiller-Brood. Moss, a good Christian girl, seems stifled by her ordered life (flash apartment, blandly handsome boyfriend etc.), so it's no huge surprise when she becomes more than a little fascinated by the inner workings of The East, the grubby anarchist cell she's tasked to infiltrate by her boss, Sharon (Particia Clarkson, here afforded the full, high-end businesswoman glam treatment).
The East, who operate out of a mysterious base in the woods, are a motley crew of crusty freegans united by both their hatred of big corporations and their plot-enabling individual personal grievances against ruthless millionaires. There's charismatic leader Benji (Alexander Skarsgård), whose serene air and straggly beard/hair combo give him an irresistibly Jesus-via-Kings of Leon vibe – convenient as Moss might be in the market for a new Messiah; the spiky Izzy (Ellen Page), who doesn't much trust Sarah; and Doc (Toby Kebbell), a kindly, bespectacled figure with a mysterious shaking disorder. There's also Adam Ant lookalike Luca (Shiloh Fernandez), whose own superpower seems to be eye make-up that magically reapplies itself when the camera isn't looking. Oh, and there's a token angry black guy, too (Aldis Hodge). Moss dips in and out of the group to report intel back to her employers, but the film's hook comes from the gradual clouding of her moral landscape and subsequent creeping discovery that, you know, these goddamn hippies might well have a point. The stakes rise exponentially as Moss begins to play a more hands-on role in the group's series of "jams" – daring acts of anti-corporate rebellion.
The East is, plot-wise, pretty far-fetched – especially toward the end – but certainly articulates in skilfully consumable, if obvious, genre-cinema language a political dialogue germane to today's activist youth; its anti-big pharma subject matter alone should prove resonant enough with a socially conscious, engaged audience. Yet the film chiefly is enjoyable for Marling's central performance. She gives the strong sense of a woman tempted not just ethically, but also sensually, by an alternative lifestyle. In this respect it echoes the core rural freedom v. conformist constriction dilemma of Sean Durkin's darker-hued Martha Marcy May Marlene. Crucially, too, Marling is not afraid to come across as brusque or unlikeable (see: her character's arrogant impetuosity, and shabby treatment of her clueless boyfriend); her flintiness makes for a compelling central character and provides The East the hard edge it requires to transcend its sillier components.

It is well established that a plethora of mutations that occur in oncogenes and tumor-suppressor genes are the main drivers of tumorigenesis. The identification of these mutations provides important clues to the cellular processes of carcinogenesis and affords an opportunity for these genes to be used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. In comparison to cancers such as breast, lung and colorectal, there is a lack of systematic, large scale characterization of oncogenic mutations oralsquamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).
