A Day in Dubai
... lights was indescribable.
We were able to walk all the way around the building to see several different views of the entire city. There was even an outdoor area, which was even more magnificent. The air up there felt amazing. We were just about to head back down when the workers told us the water show was happening again, so we got to see another water show from 148 stories up. I said before the Bellagio water show was better, but the view from above was ...

About 80m away from but running parallel to was the main road so we decided to walk down it to see if we had passed the place we were looking for as the directions we were given were a ...

Volunteers Plant 500 Native Shrubs Along Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge
By Bob Schallmann, Conservation Program Manager at Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach as part of Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Southwest.
Naval Weapons Station and Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge (SBNWR) hosted a volunteer event on 16 October 2010 with the objective of restoring native vegetation to several acres of upper saltmarsh habitat and adjacent upland habitat.
The project included removal of invasive plants, preparing the land for restoration, and planting native plants. These upland restoration areas provide habitat and shelter for state and federally-listed endangered bird species, numerous pollinator species, and a wide variety of mammals, amphibians, birds, and reptiles. They also provide a buffer between wetland habitat and agricultural lands.
The Navy and the Fish and Wildlife Service relied heavily on the Friends of SBNWR to assist in the coordination, planning, and implementation of this project. National Public Lands Day proved once again to be an ideal opportunity to involve community volunteers in the upland restoration adjacent to the refuge wetlands. The restoration areas were previously covered in non-native vegetation such at Fountain Grass, Fennel, and Hottentot Fig. The Navy was responsible for the removal of these invasives, clearing the way for soil preparation work by the Friends group. Volunteers from public and community groups, recruited by the Navy and the Friends, planted 500 native shrubs and flowers in the prepared area.

HILLSVILLE ― "A four-lane to nowhere" is how one citizen described the proposal to widen Coulson Church Road in front of Wildwood Commerce Park.
HILLSVILLE –– Carroll County took an early two-goal lead over Marion but had to settle for a draw after a 3-3 deadlock in a Southwest District girls' match Monday at Tommy Thompson Field.
Each team scored in the first two minutes of the second half as Carroll County (2-6-1 district) took a 3-2 lead into the waning minutes, but an iffy call in the Cavalier box resulted in a tying penalty kick for the Scarlet Hurricane.
HILLSVILLE –– The two-goal deficit Carroll County faced wasn't easy to overcome. But at least there was time. The single-goal gap proved otherwise.
Brandon Kegley scored with about 90 seconds remaining Monday night, wasting a valiant comeback by Carroll County and lifting Marion to a 3-2 win in a boys' soccer match at Tommy Thompson Field.
NARROWS –– Grayson County will ride an abbreviated win to what it hopes is an extended run in the postseason.
The Blue Devil boys' tennis team capped a perfect regular season with a 7-0 win over Narrows on Thursday and will enter postseason play with a 14-0 overall record.
Playing eight-game pro sets, the Blue Devils swept the singles matches, including a 9-8 (7-3) win by No. 6 Tyler Farris over Allen Oney.
The New River Trail-Dr. Ed Dannelly III 10k continues to grow in popularity with a record number of participants turning out for the event on May 5.
A race that drew 93 total participants just five years ago, 120 runners competed in the 10k alone, with another 75 taking part in the 5k walk. The 195 total shattered last year's record of 172.
WHITETOP — It's highly unlikely that any of the winners of an eating contest at the annual Whitetop Mountain Ramp Festival got a kiss after their victory.
The wild onion eating competition results in pungent breath that could peel paint.
It's a good thing that the top prizes all come with a bottle of mouthwash, in addition to cash.
Taking home the big bottle of Scope at this year's event on May 15 was a kilt-clad contender with a stomach of iron — defending champ Toby Shutters.
HILLSVILLE — An advocate for those with brain injuries was the only speaker at the public hearing for the 2012 fiscal year budget for Carroll County, leading to a slight change in the proposed spending plan.
Carroll's proposed $33.7 million general county budget features no increase in tax rates and a 50 percent cut in the farm machinery tax.
When the time came for the hearing at the May county supervisors meeting, only Pam Hall of Brain Injury Services of Southwest Virginia approached the microphone.
INDEPENDENCE — Grayson County will invest a portion of all future dividends it receives from a commerce park in education.
Supervisors, looking for new ways to help fund the county's school system, approved a resolution earlier this month that will provide additional money to the school system above the county's mandated financial requirements.

Hello fellow 4-legged friends!!!! My name is Blue and I asked my mom to start this page for me so that I could get to know other pups like me. I don't know any of my brothers or sisters except for Tannar because I was taken away from them at a very young age. I'm really glad that my mom adopted my sister and I cause who knows where we would be right now. I'm a very mellow dog my mom says, and I always give my sister what she wants. My mom always tells me not to but I hate when Tannar barks at me all the time. It gets pretty annoying!!!!
Tonight my mom brushed my teeth. It was alright, but my sister acts like it's a big deal. My mom told me I was a very good boy because I didn't wiggle all over like my sister. I was wondering, does anyone else have to have their teeth brushed? Well, I'm keeping this short cause I'm heading to bed..... Night everyone!

The Elusive Pimpernel HTML version
XXV : The Unexpected
Chauvelin heaved a deep sigh of satisfaction when Collot d'Herbois finally left him to
himself. He listened for awhile until the heavy footsteps died away in the distance, then
leaning back in his chair, he gave himself over to the delights of the present situation.
Marguerite in his power. Sir Percy Blakeney compelled to treat for her rescue if he did
not wish to see her die a miserable death.
"Aye! my elusive hero," he muttered to himself, "methinks that we shall be able to cry
quits at last."
Outside everything had become still. Even the wind in the trees out there on the ramparts
had ceased their melancholy moaning. The man was alone with his thoughts. He felt
secure and at peace, sure of victory, content to await the events of the next twenty-four
hours. The other side of the door the guard which he had picked out from amongst the
more feeble and ill-fed garrison of the little city for attendance on his own person were
ranged ready to respond to his call.
"Dishonour and ridicule! Derision and scorn!" he murmured, gloating over the very
sound of these words, which expressed all that he hoped to accomplish, "utter abjections,
then perhaps a suicide's grave ..."
He loved the silence around him, for he could murmur these words and hear them
echoing against the bare stone walls like the whisperings of all the spirits of hate which
were waiting to lend him their aid.
How long he had remained thus absorbed in his meditations, he could not afterwards
have said; a minute or two perhaps at most, whilst he leaned back in his chair with eyes
closed, savouring the sweets of his own thoughts, when suddenly the silence was
interrupted by a loud and pleasant laugh and a drawly voice speaking in merry accents:
"The lud live you, Monsieur Chaubertin, and pray how do you propose to accomplish all
these pleasant things?"
In a moment Chauvelin was on his feet and with eyes dilated, lips parted in awed
bewilderment, he was gazing towards the open window, where astride upon the sill, one
leg inside the room, the other out, and with the moon shining full on his suit of delicate-
coloured cloth, his wide caped coat and elegant chapeau-bras, sat the imperturbably Sir
"I heard you muttering such pleasant words, Monsieur," continued Blakeney calmly, "that
the temptation seized me to join in the conversation. A man talking to himself is ever in a
sorry plight ... he is either a mad man or a fool ..."

Germaine has a big night in Lions win
West Linn recovers from a Barlow rally to earn the 41-28 victory
GRESHAM West Linn was pleased with its script to open the game and supplied a thrilling finish to Friday night. Now, the Lions just need to go back and rewrite the middle chapters.
West Linns football team picked up its first win of the season 41-28 at Barlow a victory that seemed easy at halftime and had the Lions breathing a sigh of relief when the final horn sounded.
The Lions couldnt have asked for a better start, putting together a 16-play opening drive that travelled 73 yards, ending with running back Louie Germaine racing 11 yards around the right side for a touchdown.
It wouldnt be his last visit to the end zone.
West Linn converted a pair of fourth downs on the drive, highlighted when QB Hayden Coppedge rolled to his right and fired a dart back into the middle of the field. Teammate Cam Schmitz dropped to his knees and made the catch inches off the turf to move the chains on 4th-and-6. Coppedge went 5-for-6 on the drive.
The Lions would score again the next time they got their hands on the ball.
After a missed handoff in the backfield left the team scrambling to cover up a fumble, the Lions gave it to Germaine on four straight plays. A 19-yard catch-and-run, followed by a 28-yard burst around the left side put the Lions in scoring range. Germaine finished it off with a 4-run spurt.
West Linn saw its lead grow to 27-0 after scoring on its opening possession of the second half.
Players on the bench were starting to fidget, eager to get onto the field for clean-up duty.
Barlow wouldnt give them the chance.
After showing no signs of life in the first half, the Bruins offense started clicking. A 9-yard run by Garrett Childress put Barlow on the scoreboard and a pair of touchdown passes made it a one-possession game early in the fourth quarter.
Barlow took a brief one-point lead when Dillon Payne returned an interception 25 yards for a touchdown with about seven minutes left.
With the game in the balance, West Linn went back to Germaine.
He didnt disappoint.
The senior running back scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 3-yard run with 3:19 left and added a 24-yard touchdown grab to seal the victory in the final minute.
Germaine finished the night with six TDs.
West Linn hosts South Salem in its final nonleague tune up Friday before moving into Three Rivers League play Sept. 27.
The Lions beat the clock with what proved to be a key scoring drive just before halftime.
West Linn travelled 73 yards in only five plays, ending with Germaine catching a pass in the flat and working his way down the sideline. He had the option of going out of bounds at the 10-yard line and stopping the clock, but instead cut into the middle of the field and darted through a crowd of tacklers for the score and a 20-0 lead at the break.

Jan. 8, 2014
PITTSBURGH - The Pitt gymnastics team will open the regular season on Friday with a 7 p.m. meet against Towson at home at Fitzgerald Field House. The Panthers begin the season carrying a preseason predicted finish of third in the East Atlantic Gymnastics League for 2014 in head coach Debbie Yohman's28th season at the helm.
"We're excited to get rolling on 2014, although realistically we'll be starting the season a bit slowly," said Yohman. "We hit a lot of obstacles in the fall with minor injuries that caused missed preparation time but things are coming together finally - we're just not all the way there yet. If things pick up as expected we could be strengthening our lineup with any of the following: Brittney Harris as an all-arounder, Katie O'Rourke back on vault, several sophomores (Tiara Chadran, Jacqueline Lucci, Maebelle Pacheco and Ellie Pikula) who can break into the lineup in select spots on bars and vault. We also have two walk-on freshmen (Kelly Burak and Erika Reichert) who will be strong contributors as specialists.
"We are very grateful to have Haley Bodenheimer returning to action and Lindsay Offuttwho was expected to miss the season," Yohman continued. "It's a group that is potentially stronger than last year's NCAA qualifying squad and third place EAGL team - but we've now got to put that into action out on the floor."
The 2014 squad loses just two from last year's team which advanced to the NCAA Regional meet in Gainesville, Fla. Returning to lead the team are seniors Harris, Maya Ketner, Kori Macdonaldand O'Rourke.
The seniors have led the Panthers to rank third in the preseason poll, voted on by head coaches from the eight head coaches in the conference. Pitt is tied with North Carolina with 37 points behind No. 1 Maryland (five 1st place votes) with 62 points and NC State in second with 58 points (three 1st place votes).
Also returning from Pitt's 2013 squad are sophomores Laura Kummerle, Lindsay Offutt, Nicole Pearson and Lisa Soto and junior all-arounder Haley Sedgewick. Also re-joining the team after sitting out last season with an injury is 2012 EAGL Rookie of the Year Haley Bodenheimerwho has competed beam in preseason and is beginning the road back on floor exercise.
Towson is coming off their first season back in the EAGL since 2004. The Tigers finished eighth in the 2013 conference meet.
Complete EAGL Preseason Poll
1. University of Maryland – 62 Points (5 First-Place Votes)
2. North Carolina State University – 58 Points (3 First-Place Votes)
3. TIE: University of North Carolina & University of Pittsburgh – 37 Points

Co-Sponsored Event: "The Banishment of Comrade Vera Khan"
|Date and time
|April 10, 2014 - 12:00pm - 1:30pm
|918 International Affairs Building
Colloquium Series on Korean Cultural Studies
"The Banishment of Comrade Vera Khan"
Ruth Barraclough, Lecturer, School of Culture, History & Language, Australian National University
Thursday, April 10, 2014
918 International Affairs Building
No registration required.
At 2pm on the 15th of March 1938, the Korean communist Vera Khan (1899-1954) was summoned for interrogation at the Lubyanka in downtown Moscow, the offices of the NKVD. Vera Khan was one of Korea's most outspoken communist feminists. She had arrived back in Moscow in 1934 after a disastrous mission in Shanghai ended with the arrest of her husband the revolutionary Pak Hŏn-yŏng by Japanese police. Vera resumed her life in Moscow as a student and later proof-reader and editor, only to be arrested in the Great Purge of 1937-39 that targeted communist intellectuals. She was exiled for 5 years to Kyzylorda in present day Kazakhstan, one of the constellation of camps that made up the Gulag Archipelago. Following her release in May 1943 and resumption of life as a restricted (banished) Soviet subject in Kyzylorda, Vera quite by chance discovered from a copy of Pravda in 1946 that the communists, her old comrades, had come to power in North Korea. Prominent among them was her first husband Pak Hŏn-yŏng, whom rumour had reported dying in a Japanese prison in the 1930s, now Head of the Workers Party of South Korea.
This talk is about one of Korea's most notable feminist figures who lived at the very centre of major political events of the twentieth century. Although she was never allowed to return to North Korea, and her story was left to languish in the former Soviet Union interrupted only by the perfunctory "rehabilitation" stamped on her file in 1989, Vera Khan continues to be a compelling figure in Korean history. In 2007 the South Korean government awarded her a posthumous Medal of Patriotic Honour which her daughter, raised in an orphanage in Moscow, travelled to Seoul to collect. Vera Khan's story has been re-told as part of Korea's wounded Cold War past but her contribution to feminist activism has long been passed over. Too closely associated with troublesome and long discarded terms such as 'communist feminist', and 'sexually emancipated woman', Vera Khan and her comrades along with the memory of their feminist challenge were purged in South and North Korea. This talk examines Vera Khan as part of the suppressed history of female political leadership mutually bequeathed and maintained by South and North Korea. The talk concludes by asking what it means for feminism to have lost these histories.

Date of Stay: July, 2006
This is a nice, wooded State Park. There were a horse ring and trails for horseback riding. The lake was large and they had a boat ramp and boat rentals and fishing, but I didn't see a swimming area. Though we were waterfront, only the dog was willing to get it there (kind of mucky at shore). The sites are large, private and wooded, though somewhat unlevel. Biggest negative was that the lake loop of campsites had only 15 amp. power. On a very hot weekend we had to choose between lights and A/C. A/C won. The other loop, which is also nice and wooded, but not on the lake had 30 amp. Rangers were very nice and it was a pleasant place to camp.
Date of Stay: September, 2005
We go to all Clemson home games every fall and thought we'd try this campground over Labor Day weekend. Very few waterfront sites available and difficult to tell on ReserveUSA. This campground was o.k., borderline boring. There was no real access to the water, unless you were waterfront. The sites were not well-maintained and needed mowing. Worst thing was, we made our reservation for Friday and Saturday, and when we asked for Sunday night, they kept telling us to come back later, it wouldn't be a problem. Well they waited so long that someone had reserved that site for Sunday night over the internet and they wanted us to pack everything up and change sites. Totally weren't willing to work with us! No thanks, we moved on and won't be back. There are many better campgrounds on Lake Hartwell.
Date of Stay: May, 2005
This is a beautiful park. It is very quiet and full of trees. Sites are huge and private with level asphalt drives and picnic tables. Bathrooms were cleaned regularly and ranger was very nice. Only downside is not much activity for kids. Playground is not in the campground area. There was a boat ramp and dock and hiking trail. Would be great if you had a boat. Great for a quiet, layed-back weekend. Next time we will get a water-front site.

Any of you ever heard this term? Me either. But after the storm early Saturday morning BLASTED thru I now know what a Derecho storm is: it is a straight line windstorm which preceeds a thunderstorm, and it packs a PUNCH! There were 4 billboards blown over along the causeway into Atllantic City and what looked like 10-20 telephone/powerline poles crossing the marsh into AC blown over. When I hit the mainland the amount of trees toppled and branches ripped apeart as well as trees split by lightning was incredible. In all my years thru Northeasters and hurricanes I've never seen this kind of destruction for such a short duration storm. Very Impressive!
Apparently we were on the northern edge of a line that swept thru MD., W. VA, Washington and DEL. Lots of death and destruction from our friend Mother Nature.

Throughout the United States, Christians are gathering at federal buildings at noon local time today to protest the Health & Human Services mandate that would require that contraceptives, surgical sterilizations and abortion inducing drugs be provided without co-pay under the Affordable Care Act (known to many as "ObamaCare").
According to the rally site, the mandate will force religious institutions to provide drugs that will "interfere with implantation in the womb and therefore destroy the life of a human being in the earliest stage of development." The groups behind the rally take issue with the notion of "preventative services," writing:
Religious groups urged the IOM (Institute of Medicine) to not include sterilization and contraceptive services in the Mandate. Undeterred, in July 2011 the IOM made recommendations that included the two services, and the government adopted them in August of 2011.
Referring the details of these "preventive" services to the IOM was apparently intended to provide an appearance of scientific objectivity to the enactment of the HHS Mandate. However, Research conducted by Human Life International has revealed that every member of the IOM committee heavily biased in favor of legalized abortion—some with direct ties to abortion advocacy groups. Not a single member was pro-life, much less had any qualms about contraception and sterilization.
President Obama's compromise, which would require that the insurers directly provide these drugs and services, is not acceptable to the groups behind the rally because they say that it still violates religious freedom:
Religious employers are exempt only if their purpose is to inculcate religious doctrine, they hire and serve mainly people of their own faith, and they qualify as a church or religious order according to a very narrow definition in the tax code.
Most religious institutions providing health, educational or charitable services to others have no protection. Not even Jesus and the apostles would have qualified for this exemption.[…]
In the so-called accommodation, insurance companies—not the religious employers themselves—would be forced to pay for the abortion-inducing drugs, sterilization, and contraception. However, since any funds the insurance companies would use to make such payments ultimately come from the premiums paid by employers, Obama's "accommodation" is nothing more than a kind of economic shell-game.
In addition, it provides not even this inadequate accounting trick for self-insured religious institutions, which number in the hundreds if not thousands.
In the final analysis, the so-called "accommodation" still forces religious institutions to provide employees with health plans covering free "services" that violate their religious convictions—or face crippling fines should they refuse.
Numerous Catholic bishops, as well as religious right and anti-abortion groups such as the Alliance Defense Fund, Priests for Life, Operation Rescue, Concerned Women for America, Faith and Action, and the Thomas More Society are among the dozens of backers of the Stand Up for Religious Freedom Rally. They invite non-religious people to participate, too.

2009 GMS Roundup: Lifestyle
Metrosexuality Is Officially Over:
GMS Lifestyle Results
Self-consciousness/perceptionAM respondents were split right down the middle on whether or not they care about other people's perceptions of their image or behavior. Since we've already dealt with how AM readers dress, we'll concentrate on the next two visible elements of a guy's lifestyle: his car and his social life.
Out at the bar, plenty of men are apparently comfortable drinking whatever fruity seasonal beer or bright pink cocktail tastes delicious, while slightly more guys will sit there pounding Heaven Hill, lest they look like little girls. Fifty-one percent of men said that their bar drink reflects on their masculinity, while 56% felt that it indicates character or personality.
If you guys were single millionaires with no attachments or obligations, most of you (51%) would be tearing down the highway in a kickass sports car, but since this isn't Fantasytown, many guys are driving something far less exciting. That said, 46% of you simply don't give a damn what people think of your car, which is certainly better than slumping humiliated at every red light, convinced everyone's judging you because you're in a minivan.

I live in South Carolina. I have another beekeeper who want's to buy my honey by the 5 gallon bucket. How do I figure out the right and fair price to sell my honey to him? Thanks in advance for any advice you give me. Anna
I live in South Carolina. I have another beekeeper who want's to buy my honey by the 5 gallon bucket. How do I figure out the right and fair price to sell my honey to him? Thanks in advance for any advice you give me. Anna
Tell him $180.00 and when he chokes ask him to suggest a price and go from there. But don't go less than $120.00. It cost you at least $1.00 per pound to produce it.
A course, if you don't think it is worth that much, neither will he. Be prepared to walk away.
Mark Berninghausen
oh I will, I really don't want to sell it that way. I like to give my honey away to family and friends, and to people I meet in my life. Like the girl working the gas station who's had a bad day and maybe the little old man who sits in his yard every day waving at everyone who goes by.
But the guy is just about begging me to sell him my honey so I though I'd see what would be a fair price.
my guess is he's heard of your generosity and mistaken it for lack of appreciation for the value of your honey, and hopes to capitalize on that.
hope i'm wrong,mike
"Wine is a constant proof that God loves us and loves to see us happy" Ben Franklin
Begging? Maybe I was too low.
I understand that you want to share your honey w/ those you love and those who you wish to have a better day, but do they really appreciate it as much as you do? I don't like seeing people give honey away. It kinda devalues it. Family and close friends, I can see dressing up a cpl of jars so they look really nice and special for Xmas or B'day presents, but the girl at the check out counter? Eh, no. But that is just me. Do what makes you feel good I say.
Mark Berninghausen
I've always said if you could get 20.00 a quart it would still be a bargain. People have no idea what it takes to produce a jar of honey.
It is our responsibility to educate them. And the best way to do that is to put a high price on your honey and when they ask why this honey, your honey, is so much higher in price than some other honey you can tell them what it took to make it and then they will know. They may still buy the cheaper stuff, but at least they will know.
But, if you don't think it is better, don't know that it is better, neither will they. Sell your honey. Your bees worked too hard to just give it away. If they ever found out they would just stop making it for you.
Now I'm going to go raise my prices again. And sell even more honey.
Mark Berninghausen

Racist Obama Email: California NAACP Demands Apology From OC GOP Official
The California NAACP is demanding an apology from an Orange County GOP official who sent out an e-mail picturing President Barack Obama's face on the body of a baby chimpanzee.
In a statement Monday, the organization called on Marilyn Davenport to resign from the Orange County Republican Central Committee.
Several other black leaders were also holding a news conference to demand Davenport be thrown off the committee.
The message shows an image, posed like a family portrait, of chimpanzee parents and child, with Obama's face superimposed on the young chimp.
The text reads, "Now you know why no birth certificate."

- Mechanics Lien Litigation. The client was a large condominium developer. A subcontractor who walked off the project and did not complete his work filed a mechanics lien threatening continued construction financing and unit sales. I persuaded the trial court to dismiss the lien because the subcontractor had not complied with the Pennsylvania Mechanics. When the subcontractor appealed the dismissal to the Superior Court, we successfully argued that the trial court's decision was correct. The Superior Court's decision in my client's favor resulted in a change to the Pennsylvania Mechanics Lien Law and received national attention in the industry.
- Construction Litigation. The client was a large concrete subcontractor on a institutional building working for a public traded international construction company. Because of incomplete drawings, the client incurred millions of dollars in delay damages. Suit was initiated in federal court against the design professional under the theory of negligent misrepresentation because of the incomplete drawings. The architect moved to dismiss the claim because of the lack of a certificate of merit. The court ruled a certificate of merit was not required for the claim of negligent misrepresentation setting a legal precedent in the construction industry for similar cases going forward.
- Prompt Payment Act Litigation. The client was a large general contractor. A terminated subcontractor filed an arbitration with the American Arbitration Association claim against my client seeking damages under the Pennsylvania Contractor and Subcontractor Payment Act. We argued that the termination was justified and that the subcontractors claim should be denied. We also argued that we were entitled to attorneys fees under the Payment Act if we were the prevailing party in the arbitration. The Arbitrator denied the subcontractors claims and awarded my client the attorneys fees and costs incurred in the defending the action.
- Prompt Payment Act Litigation. The client was a sheet metal subcontractor on a university dormitory project. The general contractor refused to make final payment to my client. We filed suit seeking the final payment due plus interest, penalty, and attorneys fees pursuant to the Pennsylvania Public Prompt Pay Act. The case proceeded through litigation for nearly two years. By the time of trial the interest and penalty exceeded the base amount due. Arbitration panel awarded my client the full damages requested, including attorneys fees, interest, and penalty which exceed the original amount of the claim.
- Employment Litigation. The client was a mechanical contractor who noticed that its estimators were having issues logging into their computer terminals. We hired a computer forensic specialist who discovered that the terminals were being remotely accessed by a former employee who had set up a competing construction firm. We obtained ex-parte (without notice) emergency injunctive relief in Federal Court pursuant to the Computer Fraud Act on behalf of employer against former employee. The Court ordered that the former employee bring his laptop computer to the federal court house so that the hard drive could be copied by my client's expert. The matter was successfully settled with a large monetary payment to client.
- Civil Rights. The client was a student housing developer who was constructing a four story project in Philadelphia. The developer was notified by the City's Department of License and Inspection that a crack in the facade of the building needed to be repaired. The client met with the City and gave officials a plan to repair the crack, which the City accepted. The client proceeded with the repairs. Then, late one night, the client received a phone call from a City official stating that the property would be demolished the next morning. The client arrived at the site in the morning to see City officials demolishing the property. We brought suit against the City of Philadelphia for violating our client's 14th Amendment Due Process Rights. The Court awarded summary judgment in our client's favor and the case was then settled with a large payment being made to the client.

2013 NCAA Championships Central | View NCAA Doubles Championship Bracket (PDF)
URBANA, Ill. – University of Akron women's tennis seniors Prang Pantusart and Angelina Jogasuria will compete against Tennessee's Kata Szekely and Brynn Boren on Thursday at 3 p.m. ET in the opening round of 32 at the NCAA Doubles Championship. The event is being held at the University of Illinois' Khan Outdoor Tennis Complex/Atkins Tennis Center.
The Zips duo, which owns an 18-0 dual-match record and a 19-1 overall mark this season, is one of 11 automatic qualifiers in the field and are ranked No. 42 nationally in the latest Intercollegiate Tennis Association poll. UT's Szekely and Boren are seeded No. 4 in the bracket and are ranked No. 5 nationally by the ITA.
"We are looking forward to this wonderful opportunity," third-year UA head coach Brandon Padgett said. "Angelina and Prang are prepared and focused, and can't wait to get started."
Pantusart and Jogasuria are the first Zips doubles team to qualify for the NCAA's individual tournament, but UA has been represented in the NCAA Championships in each of the last three seasons. In 2010, Zara Harutyunyan was the first player in school history to qualify for the NCAA Singles Championship, and the program earned the Mid-American Conference's automatic bid into the NCAA Team Championship in 2011 and 2012 as the league tournament champion.
Automatic qualification into the doubles championship is awarded to any conference with one or more eligible doubles teams ranked in the ITA's top 60. For conferences with more than one doubles team within the ITA's top 60, the subcommittee applies the NCAA selection criteria to determine which pair is the automatic qualifier from that league. All doubles teams must have a minimum of 10 completed matches, with five in the spring, in order to be selected as an automatic qualifier or an at-large selection.

text: We have a screen porch with a vaulted ceiling. The ceiling in the center is flat and then it is sloped on either side. I would like to apply tongue and grooved douglas fir beadboard planks. I will stain them first as well as put two coats of exterior poly. I am just not certain as to how to install the boards where the sloped areas meet the flat ceiling so that it looks uniform. Are there any tricks for getting a nice uniform seam between the sloped and flat areas? We also have several recessed cans that I would need to trim around. Thank you

If Pinko's collections ever struck you as nudging so close to the proverbial top they might go over any second, you'll want to reconsider for autumn / winter 2013. There's no overabundance of bling here, no hard-to-pull-off clashes of print. Clean cuts and sophisticated detailing are the new order, and while AW13 openly embraces pattern and embellishment, it does so with restraint.
Amoungst the very wearable offering for autumn is a mod-inspired story of clean shift dresses, structured coats and a blush pink patent mini, complimented by a softly romantic "Gypsy Poet" theme of neo bohemian tapestry prints and jacquard wools.
You can see all of the Pinko autumn (fall) / winter 2013 collection by clicking on a thumbnail on the left. From there you can browse through each of the pictures from the collection.

Nine West Heech Wedges
I saw these wedges in Macy's two weeks ago. They looked great and felt great, and were even on sale! But for some reason I didn't get them. I can be really indecisive sometimes. Now I'm kicking myself for not getting them. If I can't find the black ones tomorrow I'm getting the browns.

After sitting out the past two races with symptoms from a concussion suffered at Talladega, Dale Earnhardt Jr. has been cleared to return to the track this weekend at Martinsville.
Earnhardt completed a rehabilitation program administered by Charlotte neurosurgeon Dr. Jerry Petty (handy name in NASCAR) as well as Dr. Micky Collins of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Sports Medicine Concussion program.
"Dale Jr. has done everything asked of him," Petty said in a statement. "He hasn't had a headache since Oct. 12, and we have not been able to provoke any symptoms since that time. I have informed NASCAR and Hendrick Motorsports that he is medically cleared for all NASCAR-related activity."
Earnhardt underwent a battery of tests, most notably a 123-lap Sprint Cup car run at Gresham Motorsports Park in Jefferson, Ga. A final neuropsychological evaluation Tuesday morning in Charlotte cleared Earnhardt to race, and he'll get back behind the wheel of the No. 88 this weekend.
Earnhardt's injury, and more specifically the way in which he has dealt with it, opened up a new line of dialogue in NASCAR: the incidence and prevalence of head injuries, as well as the sport's loopholes in dealing with potential injuries. Among the questions Earnhardt's injury raised: Does NASCAR do enough to catch and address potential head injuries? (Drivers who can drive their car back to their hauler after a wreck, as Earnhardt did, are not checked.) Would Earnhardt have stepped out of the car if he were still in the running for a championship? Should NASCAR make adjustments to the season points standings accumulation to prevent the huge disincentive to drivers to get out of the car?
This chapter of Earnhardt's concussion story is done, but the overall issue could, and should, change NASCAR's operations in the coming years.

The free app contains medical records, emergency contact information and tools that can help document accident scenes for potential insurance and injury claims. Emergency information can be accessed by first responders through the "My ICE" icon. Laureen Bagley is with Sloan, Bagley, Hatcher & Perry, a law firm with Houston offices, which introduced the app.
"Whether it's a car wreck or if you're at work and you're injured, EMS can get your medical information and contact your loved ones."
The app includes a global positioning satellite-enabled locator and also allows for camera and audio recording of evidence at the scene.
"There is a witness tab with a little microphone and they can automatically record witness statements. There's also a recording mecanism to video the scene — skid marks, positions of vehicles. Those are all sorts of things that would help someone establish their claim."
The Sloan Firm Injury App can be downloaded for iPhone and Android devices.

My Area code is 702
Hi Guys,
I couldn't come up with a interesting or witty title so I settled for my area code. I'm not hip or cool enough to use the phrase "702 rEpReSeNt!!@!@#$@$!"
Anyways I bought a 2005 BMW 3 series almost half a year ago... polly 2 months ago I notice certain things about my car not performing so well. I'm kinda sick of paying out the ass to the BMW dealership (F U DESERT BMW of Las Vegas/Henderson!!) so they can ram fees and bills up my rectum under the pretenses of "service":lmao: and "quality" or whatever....
Considering that the HONDA dealership:thumbdwn: wrecked my last ride because their technicians never bother to replace the transmission oil or much less check the dipstick (which actually has a separate transmission dipstick!!!!) and the transmission committed suicide. :facepalm:
I decided to go the DIY route. If something happens or a big screw up occurs I have no one to blame and hell I'd be satisified that it happened under my sheer incompetence and not someone elses.. After all, if I killed the entire service department in revenege, it would be considered homocide... They can't do **** if I in anger killed myself.... now can they? :shhh:
So I figured I might as well register and join the cool kids, considering I spent more than 4 hours every night stalking and prowling this forum for knowledge. And that I think I developed a hardon everytime someone mentions VANOS or gasket...this is the BMW car porn forum right? okay just kidding and all joking aside......
....So whats up folks?
I'm also from Vegas ! Drive a 323i . And I hear ya about those dealerships, but if you ver need something to be done in a shop I know a guy. I used to work with him he's an honest technician .
welcome to the forum. another local here! there is this guy who, i believed used to work for a bmw dealership, and now owns a shop and heard good things about him. let me know as well and ill find his contact info from my email. he works mostly on bmw cars from tune ups to motor swaps. i haven't personally taken my car to him but heard positive comment. good luck!

Super Furry Animals launch beer
Welsh band Super Furry Animals are to launch a beer at the Fire Festival next month.
Named "Fuzzy" after the psychedelic rockers' first album "Fuzzy Logic", the 8.5% beer has been made in partnership with the Celtic Experience Brewery and will go be available to taste at the gastronomic festival on 1 February.
According to Wales Online, the festival is a "celebration of innovative craft beer, art and smoky food."
The beer will then be available in pubs throughout Wales and select venues in London from March.
Keyboard player, Cian Ciaran, told the site: "We're making it with our own specially formulated recipe, although I can't tell you what that is."
Super Furry Animals are not the only musicians to head off into the realms of drink collaboration nor the first Welsh ones either, Goldie Lookin' Chain launched Goldie Lookin' Ale last year with Newport-based Tiny Rebel Brewery.

Judge: Firing of former ALE director was political
RALEIGH - An administrative law judge says the administration of GOP Gov. Pat McCrory fired the former Alcohol Law Enforcement director because he's a Democrat.
The News & Observer of Raleigh reported that Judge Fred Morrison Jr. ordered Tuesday that former ALE Director John Ledford be reinstated as an ALE agent. The judge also said Ledford should get back pay to the date of his dismissal and be reimbursed $50,000 for attorneys' fees.
At the end of 2012, before the McCrory administration took over, Ledford sought to be reassigned from ALE director to agent. Ledford was fired in April for "unacceptable personal conduct" because of the job transfer.
Democrat Beverly Perdue served as governor before McCrory.
The state can appeal the ruling.

Pacers, volunteers pack meals for Kids Against Hunger
The Pacers and George Hill teamed up with Kids Against Hunger at Bankers Life Fieldhouse Monday to pack over 50,000 meals.
Some of the meals will stay in Indianapolis and some will be shipped out to Haiti. The food is designed to not only taste good but also to be nutritious.
"This recipe has four main ingredients that are going in by these volunteers. It is packed with protein and vitamins so when they get a meal they are getting what they need and not just empty calories," said Angie Mollenkopf, Kids Against Hunger.
Kids Against Hunger is always looking for volunteers. They pack food every third Saturday of the month at their warehouse in Noblesville.
WTHR's Dave Calabro, John Stehr and Scott Swan helped pack meals Monday, along with many other volunteers.

Capitol Hill Day Success
July 19, 2010
Today's blog post comes from our Federal Advocacy intern, Sumeet Singh.
Every year, Capitol Hill Day offers a time for advocates of ending homelessness to sit down with their Senators and Representatives and discuss pressing and pertinent issues regarding homelessness. In doing so, it also provides another great opportunity – a chance for these passionate advocates to come together and have their voices heard. This year, those voices were heard as loudly as ever before – advocates from 40 states and Guam held over 215 meetings with Congressional offices, and the results are still pouring in! With every additional meeting, the value and effectiveness of Hill Day 2010 increase that much more. We'll do a follow-up blog post in a few weeks once we have finalized all of the results. In its decades-long existence, Hill Day's track record of spreading knowledge, creating awareness, and igniting political movement clearly demonstrates just how powerful a tool it has been.
This year, Hill Day became even stronger.
Take the story of our advocates from Maine as an example. Six years ago, before our current group was involved, the Maine Congressional Delegation was largely unaware and unconcerned with homelessness issues. However, in the years since the Maine advocates have been active in Hill Day events, several Members of Congress from the state, including both Senators, have become champions of the issue. Thanks to our State Captains and Hill Day Participants, stories like this one are becoming more common across the nation with each passing year. Given the similar stories from other states and the great numbers from this year, Hill Day 2010 is proving to be an historically successful year.
At a personal level, my experiences as a first time organizer of Capitol Hill Day were both memorable and educational. To see weeks of coordination and planning with State Captains come together was special, as was the chance to see so many hours of work translating into influence on federal policymaking. Moreover, getting to meet, in person, the men and women whom I had been e-mailing and calling incessantly (we called it "gentle nudging") in the lead-up to the conference was wonderful. It is not often that I get to meet people so passionate about a cause as unselfish as ending homelessness. Thanks in large part to the efforts of these advocates, Capitol Hill Day 2010 was a great success.

Top It Some More
We won't blame you if you thought the era of the milliner, haberdasher, and cordwainer were long gone. With designer-label ready-to-wear fashions available everywhere from Tar-jay to Ebay, who out there would still bother with the painstaking craftsmanship it takes to create just one item of clothing for the sartorially inclined?
The Goorin Brothers, that's who.
Nestled in the historic Village area of New York City, alongside small boutiques and old-world tea shops, their century-old hat shop of the same name continues a long tradition of fine millinery. Master craftsman Cassel Goorin started the business 1895 in Pittsburgh, Penn.; nearly 50 years later his sons moved the shop to the West Coast. Today, Goorin Brothers hat shops can be found nationwide. Classic hats such as the derby, porkpie, cloche, floppy, and America's favorite, the fedora, are handmade using antique blocks and the highest quality wool. While the brothers rest on tradition, they continue to look ahead: most recently the brand launched its Heritage Line: A tribute to Cassel Goorin. And, if you're not a fan of the topper (for fear of the dreaded hat-hair), Goorin Brothers also offers a variety of scarves, gloves, and headbands.
It's enough to flip your lid over.

Brangelina aren't keeping their wedding photo money
People and Hello! magazines paid a hefty price for the exclusive photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's wedding. The photos showing Angelina in her dress, Brad in his suit and their six kids were sold to the mags for a cool $2 million.
It's a pretty nice wedding gift for the couple, which is worth an estimated $385 million, but they're not keeping it for themselves. They're channeling the money directly to their charity, the Jolie Pitt Foundation, which is what they've done each time they've sold photos of their kids.

The Germans, coached by former player Rudi Voeller, began with a 2-0 win over Lithuania.
A month later the Faroe Islands paid a visit and posed the Germans quite a few problems.
An early Michael Ballack penalty was cancelled out by an own goal from defender Arne Friedrich just before half-time.
However, substitute Miroslav Klose saved his side from an embarrassing result with the match-winning goal shortly after the break.
Their poor run continued, drawing with Lithuania and then repeating the result against Berti Vogts' Scotland, both played in front of their home crowd.
A pivotal moment in their campaign came in Torshavn, where until the 89th minute they were faced with going back to Germany having only managed a 0-0 draw with the Faroe Islands.
Much to Voeller's relief, Klose and Fredi Bobic grabbed late goals to give the Germans all three points.
Iceland led the table after they beat the Faroes 2-1, which put added pressure on the Germans when the two top teams met in Reykjavik.
The visitors were given a tough time by Iceland and were fortunate to come away with a 0-0 draw after Chelsea's Eidur Gudjohnsen spurned a golden chance in the first half.
Having been let off the hook on more than one occasion during the campaign, Voeller knew his side could not afford to fail in the final two matches.
A 2-1 win over Scotland meant they needed to defeat Iceland to secure their automatic passage.
And thanks to goals from Ballack, Bobic and Kevin Kuranyi, they did just that.

Well, enough that I dont feel nauseous all day - what with that?
Google says nausea can be caused by blocked ears, so thats my vote.
It was my sister's birthday last week, I spent hours trying to finish Isabella (from Hell) to send to her.
Then I noticed,
Gee, that V-neck isnt very symmetrical, its about an inch off centre. NOOO!
So I have to frog all the way down past the waist shaping and try again. Its sitting in a pile, giving me the evil eye.
In the meantime I've cast on the Baby Suprise jacket (in my generic rainbow cone-from-hell yarn), and the Teardrop Scarf from the latest Knitscene Fall 2007.
I think there is some errors in the pattern though, I sent IK an email, i'll wait and see.
I frogged the Branching Out scarf to make this one - BO is not easy!
And now for some book reviews (Kinokuniya has its latest shipment in)...
Knitting Lingerie Style, by Joan McGowan-Michael
I love this book - its terrific! I was thinking it was going to be full of tacky outfits and not-practical designs but I was way off.
You can really tell that Joan is a fashion designer - she goes to a lot of effort to explain proper finishing techniques - i.e. lining the bra-cups, why a certain seam is needed here etc etc.
A lot of the projects are made with Cascade Fixation, (which you can get from Yarns Online) but I reckon Harmony Breeze would be a good substitute. The designs range from flirty skirts, fitted tank tops through to knitted bra and undies (proper, lined and underwired bra!). Sizes go up to a 50-inch bust for some designs too ;).
Its on my To-Buy list at the Book Depository.
Punk Knits: 26 Hot New Designs for Anarchistic Souls, by Share Ross
Just keep moving along the book shelf and dont pick it up. I'd heard mixed reactions about this book, and i'm going to side with the negatives on this one. Dropped stitches and novelty yarn does not a punk knit make.
Pretty in Punk: 25 Punk, Rock and Goth Knitting Projects, by Alyce Benevides
This ones not too bad. The designs are well thought out (those intarsia charts rock!) if a bit simple. Her felted knit hats are quite cool, and there is a little knit argyle skirt that is to die for! Wouldnt mind a copy of this book, or maybe just borrow it from the library :).
Runway Knits, by Berta Karapetyan
Another keep-walking. All of the designs use Karabella Yarn (but the author runs the company I think), and are pretty ordinary. I couldnt find one design in there I would like to knit or wear. The sizing is a bit small as well (a Large is 38 inch bust). Stick to buying Vogue Knitting Magazine if designer knits is what you're after.
Well, I'll probably be at the Tapestry Craft SnB tomorrow night, and SSK on Saturday - maybe will see you all there ;)

CaesarStone Sdot-Yam (CSTE) reported higher second-quarter sales and profits and raised its full-year guidance, driving shares up 11% in heavy trading volume early Wednesday.
The beat by the maker of quartz countertops, bathroom vanities and other interior surfaces was a bright spot for the building and construction products group, which is ranked a dismal 192 on IBD's list of 197 industries.
CaesarStone's Q2 earnings minus items climbed 9% to 58 cents per share excluding various items, 1 cent above analyst consensus. That was the second straight quarter of deceleration.
Revenue jumped 31% to $116.1 million, well above Wall Street's $105.2 million target and the best gain in nearly three years. U.S. sales swelled 55% to $47.9 million, while Australia, Canada and other regions also contributed.
CaesarStone projected full-year revenue of $435 million to $445 million, up from its prior outlook for $420 million to $430 million, and well above consensus of analysts polled by Thomson Reuters for $429.2 million.
The company expects 2014 earnings of $112 million-$117 million, vs. $108 million-$113 million earlier.
The quartz goods maker said it is benefiting from an earlier expansion of its Bar Lev, Israel facility.
Meanwhile, the company's new Richmond, Ga., plant is expected to become operational in Q2 2015, with a second line set to launch in Q4 of that year.
"The U.S. is our biggest market and one of the fastest-growing markets," CEO Yosef Shiran told IBD in an interview this year, adding that "This (expansion) is mainly about improving service and time to market."
The company also expanded its investment fund to about $115 million, vs. its earlier estimate of roughly $100 million. The increase was mostly to cover costs for upgrading machinery to boost capacity.
CaesarStone shares were up 11.6%, at 49.02, in Wednesday afternoon trading on the stock market today.
Among other building-products firms,Trex Co. (TREX) rose 7% intraday. The maker of artificial wood decking materials has soared 29% so far this week after reporting better-than-expected earnings Monday.

A funeral service full of music and prayer was held this afternoon to celebrate the life of Christchurch earthquake victim Jeff Pelesa Sanft.
Sanft, 32, was on one of two buses - going through St Asaph and Colombo Sts respectively - crushed by falling debris during the February 22 quake.
It's not known which of the buses Mr Sanft was on, but his injuries proved too severe and he died in hospital.
This afternoon Jeff's uncle Noel Sanft told the large gathering at Kerrs Chapel in Linwood that Jeff's passing was a huge shock for the family.
"No one could imagine this is the time for this young man to go."
Jeff was born in Samoa but later moved to Christchurch and went to school in Linwood. He was well known in rugby league circles.
His uncle said everything Jeff did was for his family, but especially "his two princesses" Hazel, 4, and Olive, 2.
"His life revolved around Hazel and Olive."
Another one of Jeff's uncles, Eric Smith, said Jeff was a talented artist and had a great love of music.
His partner said they had been together for 11 years. They were due to get married at a registry office but he said not to tell anyone. "I am now finding the strength for myself and my two girls."
Rapper Scribe pays tribute
Over the weekend, his rapper cousin Scribe spoke of his grief at Sanft's death - and how a last-minute decision to stay at home saved his life.
The rapper posted on Twitter how he was about to take a bus with Sanft, saying: "Was supposed to catch the bus with my cousin who I live with but pulled out last minute.I love you Jeff RIP.See you when I get there.xxx"
Scribe's cousin, the singer Ladi6, said: "Rest in Peace Jeffy ... I will always remember you with love My love goes out to the Sanft and Smith famalies."
Facebook, online tributes flow
Jeff's family and friends last week paid Facebook tributes to a man who grew up in Christchurch and was well known in rugby league circles.
Brother Laki Sanft said on his Facebook page: "Still speechless. G, I miss you so bad!"
Many friends conveyed their shock at learning of Mr Sanft's death, one woman saying she had even seen him walking through town minutes before the quake.
Most of Mr Sanft's photos show a smiling little girl - his daughter.
One picture, of Mr Sanft cuddling her, has become like a shrine, people leaving messages of sympathy to the Sanft family.
One friend says: "All our love to the Sanft aiga [family]. He will eternally be in our hearts. R.I.P uso [brother]."
Another reads: "You will forever be in our hearts, cherished and loved. Until we meet again our cuzzie."
