There has been a couple occasions where my car will make a screeching noise and sounds like I hit something when changing my gear from reverse to drive. I experimented last time it happened; when changing the gear (didn't drive my car) from park to drive it made a noise that sounded like my car was dropping (big thud) and when i put it in park it would shoot forward and then bounce back. I noticed where my car normally says the gear that it is in wasn't on both time this has happened.0, but when I op turn my car off and back on it works again as if nothing is wrong.

Friday and we wanted to walk to the gorge which was apparently a brisk 20 minute walk away. It didn't look too far away on the map but it was all uphill and a good workout for us all. We walked past a house one of our friend's lived in (hello Danielle) and took a photo of what it looks like now and texted it to her. We loved Cataract Gorge and can't believe something so beautiful is right in the heart ...

The All-Party Parliamentary Group for the Visitor Economy (APPG) aims to enhance the local economy by promoting measures and incentives, including a reduction of VAT on tourism, which would increase visitor numbers and investment in all parts of Britain and Northern Ireland.
The APPG is co-chaired by Margaret Ritchie MP & Steve Double MP and is supported by the BHA.
Margaret Ritchie MP, said: "The tourism industry is central to many sectors of the economy in Britain and Northern Ireland - in fact in some it can be the catalyst for economic growth and job creation. It provides enormous potential for growth and productivity.
"The APPG will focus on how we can enhance the UK's local economy by discussing measures and incentives such as a reduction in tourism VAT. We have a real opportunity to boost tourism, and with the APPG's Cross Party support, I have renewed confidence that our voice can be heard across Parliament, in the Treasury and in wider Government circles."
Officers of the APPG
Officers of the APPG make decisions about the APPG's meetings and topics. They are elected by the other members of the APPG at the Annual General Meeting.

Moscow, Aug 27 (UNI) A senior Russian military expert today said the US and NATO, by arming Tbilisi, used the conflict in Georgia as a dress rehearsal for a military operation against Iran.
''We are close to a serious conflict as US and NATO preparations on a strategic scale are going on,'' president of the Academy of Geopolitical Studies Col Gen Leonid Ivashov told a news conference.
''In the operation the West conducted on Georgian soil against Russia, South Ossetians were the victims or hostages of it.
We can see a rehearsal for an attack on Iran,'' he said.
There is a great deal of 'new features' today that are being fine-tuned in the theater of military operations, he added.
Mr Ivashov said the possibility of a war against Iran was growing with each passing day. ''As a result, the situation in the region will become destabilised,'' he said, adding causing chaos and instability was becoming Washington's official policy line.

text: Hi guys. I'm new here, so hoping not to tread on any toes ;-) My query is on behalf of a friend who's not particularly computer literate, and I'm hoping some of you experts can help us. He currently has a new machine with WIN8 on it. He prefers the WIN7 on his old machine, but loves the speed of his new hardware. The WIN7 on his old machine was installed as an upgrade from WIN XP (which I understand is basically a clean install). His old machine was last used about a month ago. It still has this WIN7 on it (it's not been uninstalled and deactivated via Microsoft). Seeing as his WIN7 is, as far as MS is concerned, presumably still activated on his old machine, will he have to get it uninstalled and deactivated in order to be able to reuse it on the new machine? Will his WIN7 upgrade disk even run properly as an 'upgrade' on a machine with WIN8 already installed (rather than, say, Vista or XP)? Basically, my head is spinning wondering if there's effectively a way to get WIN7 off his old machine and activated on his new machine using only a WIN7 upgrade disk and, I believe, an XP install disk. Is it a case of uninstall and deactivate WIN7 on the old machine, install XP on the new machine, and then run the WIN7 upgrade disk on the new machine's fresh XP installation? Any clarification MUCH appreciated! (and apologies if this is a common query). Regards, Jon.

Lady Selling Fruit Under the Bridge
Posted in the Herkimer Forum
1 - 20 of 37 Comments Last updated Aug 20, 2013
#1 Aug 14, 2013
Just an FYI . The lady selling fruit by Denny's buys her fruit with an EBT card then marks it up and boasts freshly picked fruit. Are we all ok with this? Discuss.
#2 Aug 14, 2013
In case you were wondering she's been spotted multiple times at ALDI buying up all the marked down produce.
#3 Aug 14, 2013
At least she is thinking of ways to make ends meet and survive in this God-forsaken, flooded-out, economically depessed and devoid of decent-paying full-time jobs shithole of a Mohawk Valley. She's getting her ass OUT THERE and making something happen for herself although she's obviously not going to get rich doing what she's doing. Why don't you mind your own F-ING business, sticknose. Bunch of F-ING busy bodies.
#5 Aug 15, 2013
gross , can anyone get that spot, does she pay the village
#6 Aug 15, 2013
AGREE, leave the old lady alone. It's survival of the fittest, ever since the CORPORATE STRUCTURES sold every one's job's to China etc, etc, etc Oh and Bangadesh. I'm going to start selling DOOBIES on the other side of the bridge. Buy one get one. BOGO RULES!!!!
#7 Aug 16, 2013
She,s probably in her 80's. She sits out in the hot sun and runs her little enterprise. I applaud her. Beats sitting on Main Street doing nothing. You go (old) girl!
#8 Aug 16, 2013
I don't know about you, but I don't want to buy fruit and vegetables that have been sitting in the sun all day. She is able to do this and not pay taxes. She does not upkeep that property and she leaves things around. Just what you want to see as your entering the village, cooked fruits and vegetables from a not so clean lady. She's a scammer,
#9 Aug 16, 2013
Simple Solution, Debbie Downer: Then don't by anything from her; just ignore her and drive on by like most of you other judgmental, narrow-minded touch holes are doing. Personally, I'm going to stop and buy something from her just to get the opportunity to talk to her and perhaps learn a little about her past and how it is that she came to be selling fruits and veg next to a bridge in Herkimer, NY at her age.
You can learn alot from older folks and hear some fascinating stories that may lead you to think about subjects you've never considered, or even change your life, if you would only take the time to stop and listen to them. You've all got plenty of spare time to listen to each other on your cell phones and computers. How about making a personal human connection for a change???
#10 Aug 16, 2013
Well then, as you drive by--look the other way. I wouldn't want you to get traumatized!!! LOL
#11 Aug 16, 2013
i dont think its socially acceptable to call them fruits now..i thought they went by the label of G. L. TG. HO. or something so the democrats could get their vote?? and most fruits do nothing but sit in the sun all day dont they ?? are you FRUITAPHOBIC?
#12 Aug 17, 2013
She is a rip off that's why she won't put prices on her signs. Don't go there.
#13 Aug 17, 2013
The don't buy them you f*cking tool.
#14 Aug 17, 2013
Is she the lady who sold vegs at the second hand store in Mohawk? What was that called - Grandma's?
#15 Aug 17, 2013
Agree, what a EFFIN TOOL. Oh I'm sure the lady is a real danger to society!!
#16 Aug 17, 2013
Yes that's the lady... She was at the same spot last summer that she is at now.. I know her daughter sells fruit on 28... I smell competition I would give the old lady business over her slutty daughter who is married and cheats on him... Idk who would touch that considering as she looks like she been run over the co*k train one too many times!!!
#17 Aug 17, 2013
Dude, you're an idiot. Sounds like you're the one who got nailed by a real train. What are you, Bi- polar or maybe brain dead? Start another thread, you are way off topic. LOL
#18 Aug 18, 2013
She hot?
#19 Aug 18, 2013
I don't buy from her. What are you so upset about?
#20 Aug 18, 2013
Seriously everyone needs to stop gossiping about the people who lives around here..Keep it to yourself..thats bullying. Karma will get you for this..so what if she sells fruit..shes trying to make some extra cash..i don't blame her..none of you got proof she buys them from stores..she could of grew them in her garden or something and being nice..I find no harm in what shes doing and you guys need to find a better hobby than to sit here on herkimer forum gossiping..wwhy don't you learn something from her and get off your butts and doing something with yourselfs..Have a good day.

Joseph ReevesMember
@umnakLocale: Southeast Alaska
I've been in western Alaska for a while and have not been keeping up on these posts, so excuse me if this is redundant. Following message from Ursack.
It appears that Ursack will be allowed almost everywhere in the Sierra this year except Yosemite National Park and three areas (Rae Lakes, Dusy Basin, Rock Creek) of SEKI. We calculate that Ursack may be used on more than 98% of the Pacific Crest Trail. SIBBG, the Sierra Agency Black Bear Group, no longer exists. There are no standardized bear canister tests–each Superintendent of Forest Service Manager makes the decision for his or her own area. While Ursack will likely submit the S29 AllWhite Hybrid for consideration by Yosemite and SEKI, there can be no assurance of approval given those parks lack of testing criteria and/or their historical antipathy toward Ursack.
Was the demise of SIBBG a result of the California Bankruptcy?Jan 18, 2010 at 10:12 pm #1564082

What? No more lugging heavy BV's up Mt. Whitney trail? Woohoo!!Jan 18, 2010 at 10:19 pm #1564083
Hopefully we can find out soon. I was planning on carrying an Ursack anyway, but only because no bear canister is big enough to hold the amount of food I should be getting, so I'd be using both at some points.Jan 18, 2010 at 10:19 pm #1564084

"Was the demise of SIBBG a result of the California Bankruptcy?"
Eh? SIBBG was all or mostly Federal agencies. They weren't funded to establish a national standard but that's what people expected of them. They haven't tested a device for a few years.Jan 19, 2010 at 7:34 am #1564129
Josh LeavittBPL Member
@joshleavittLocale: Ruta Locura
"Was the demise of SIBBG a result of the California Bankruptcy?"
No, SIBBG's disbanding can be directly attributed to the lawsuit filed by Tom Cohen of Ursack against them. He essentially made the claim that the "guide lines" set up by SIBBG for bear resistant container approval were "arbitrary and capricious" in the way they were applied. Not to mention the fact that SIBBG conducted business after their charter expired, and over stepped the bounds of that charter regularly.
The rumor is that there will be a means of national standardized testing for the approval of bear resistant containers. Might be better, might be worse, my guess is worse.
Until something like that occurrs though, new products will have no chance of being approved and accepted on a wide scale basis. This is bad for consumers, and for bears. Even with a national testing and approval process, nothing says that particular products wont be denied on a local level.
Lets hope Tom made some gains in his legal pursuits, I for one wish him the best.Jan 19, 2010 at 10:56 am #1564193

@deuceregularLocale: Southern Jefferson
I really hope this turns out good for Ursack users. I got mine in a year that they were still approved for Yosemite. Since then I have seen many a ranger frown when I tell them I plan on using it regardless of their recommendations (Kings Canyon, NP).
I also use it as a bear canister backup. There is no way that anyone should ever have to bring two of those things.Jan 19, 2010 at 11:17 am #1564200

Does anyone know – first or second hand, of someone being fined for using a Ursack in a "canister only" area?

I have to wonder if I'd get fined for using a bear canister AND an Ursack. Both would probably be hung using the PCT method. I'd hope a ranger would have pity on me when he sees that I'm already using the bear canister to the max. Of course this would only be a concern for the first few days after a resupply.Jan 19, 2010 at 11:57 am #1564219

the whole purpose of requiring bear cannisters is to have pity on the BEARS, not the backpackers.

the few "failures" have all been attributable to user error. if they are used correctly, they work as well as a canister.
but it is well over 8oz if the alluminum liner is used (and which is required in some areas for it to be an approved container).Jan 19, 2010 at 1:26 pm #1564245

I have only ever been asked by a Ranger about canisters at the time I get my permit. I tell them yes.
I know that I Ranger can ask to see your canister, but I don't believe they have a legal right to search your bag unless you authorize them. I have not noticed a line in the permit application stating that I must submit my bag for search upon the request of a Ranger.
However, I do bring one canister when required, and I just figure I would show them that and hopefully no further questions.
As for backcountry ethics: I believe that sometimes policies are made to blanket all backountry users. I have never had a bear take me food. I do some great PCT hangs. They are fun, look good, and bring me a great amount of satisfaction. I know that the purpose of canisters is to stop bears from equating people with food, and to make the bears "think" that people smell like food, but are not food. I feel that I can have a say as to my own methods in regards to this program of behavioral extinction. Maybe I am wrong.Jan 19, 2010 at 1:32 pm #1564248

I definitely want to protect the bears, and not just "beat the system". And hike light. If I could do that with an Ursack I would. Sleeping high and tying off well is effective.
I was stopped and asked for my permit, but no questions were asked about a canister. I met a father/son team on the JMT carrying a Ursacks that they declared at the time of permitting, and were given the OK. I have heard of similar situations where the ranger was intent on the "spirit" not just the "letter" of the law.
I assume I'll be checked each time I'm out. I'm only a sample of one. So I ask to help determine my risk if I decide to go that route.Jan 19, 2010 at 2:11 pm #1564259

> the few "failures" have all been attributable to user error
If there is significantly more user-error with an Ursack than with a bear can, that sounds like a problem.
I do not know how much user error there is, but for bear protection all that matters is results. In this case, if failures are occurring, "user error" is not a defense.

Met someone a year ago on the JMT that got finded. I am pretty sure he was nabbed in Yosemite.
> Ursack is only user failure?
I have talked with three people who have their ursack broken into. Two very well might have been user error. They didn't think there was a user error, but based on what they said (don't remember their words), I thought it sounded like they did some boneheaded things. The third person struck me as a careful soul who said all the right words about what he did. I assumed that was a real breech. I can't remember what version of the bag he was using. It was a couple of years ago, so not the current bag.

And of course there have been documented failures of canisters, in particular the Bear Vault, which had to go through two re-designs to thwart some particularly intelligent, or persistent, bears in, I think, the Rae Lakes area.

A Ti replacement for the Ursack aluminum sleeve wont save any weight.
ALL canisters and bags can fail, some more than others, nothing is "bear proof", only bear resistant. The big difference is that "the system" is rigged in favor of hard sided canisters and their retailers/manufactures.Jan 19, 2010 at 4:33 pm #1564311

Thom, I think maybe titanium would be fairly equal to aluminum here, except more expensive. Titanium is twice as strong as aluminum, so you could use a thinner gauge to get the same strength. However, Ti is 60% heavier than Al. It seems like a rather expensive way to save 2.16 oz., but it could be done.

James, I believe that my Bear Vault is one generation back from the latest. On many occasions, I find it very difficult to open, even when I am a human that can read the instructions, and I have opposable thumbs. How in the heck a black bear could open that up is beyond me.
The old Garcia isn't too hard to open, and the Bear Boxer isn't bad, either.

I think bear vault's approval was temporarily pulled if you where going to Rae Lakes. I was given a loaner bearikade when I showed up with a bear vault at road's end.
Bear vault was quickly reapproved when they changed the lid. Bear vault also provided free replacement lids which where available at the major trail heads in the area.
Contrast Bear vault's approach to Ursack. Each time Ursack's approval was revoked the user was blamed and the following year we get a new model. Owner's of the old model were SOL.
Bear vault stood behind their product and provided a free and easy fix. Ursack blamd the user and offered to sell them an "upgraded" model at full price.Jan 19, 2010 at 4:58 pm #1564319

@verberLocale: San Francisco Bay Area
The earliest bearvault's approval was pulled in rae lake. The nice people from bear vault made a retrofit lid which addresses most of the problems. I believe they distributed the updated lids at the rae lakes trailhead for awhile. My memory is that the bear in question was able to deform the canister enough that she could "pop" the lid off.
I agree that all the canisters are just bear resistant, and user error can provide easy access. My take with the ursack is that it's a bit easier to make mistakes.
I also believe that the ursack ss less resistant than at typical hardside canisters. I have seen bears tire of playing with hardside canisters pretty quicky, but I have heard a number of reports of bears not giving up on ursack. Maybe because they remind bears of food bags they used to get out of trees? Of the people I know with ursacks that have encountered bears. The people who threw rocks made noise, and tied the bag to a tree kept their food because the bear left after a while. Some food was crushed by no reward for the bear. The person who left his bag loose (which the instructions suggested) watched the bear carry it away and later fond the breached bag and the food gone. The two people who knew a bear was attaching their ursack and though it was "bearproof" so they could ignore the bear found the bag breached the following morning. No idea how long the bear worked on the ursack, but he/she had an 9 hour window to succeed.

It will be interesting to see what the Yosemite rangers will do with those starting in Yosemite on the JMT, going south. I wonder how much grief you'll get at the permit counter if you say you are using an ursack, either utilizing the bear boxes or camping beyond Yosemite the first night.

100 Pct Community Council Holds Monthly Meeting
The 100 Precinct Community Council held their monthly meeting on Wednesday night at the Knights of Columbus Hall on Beach 90 Street.
Guest speaker, Gregory Springfield, president of the non-profit Team Thrust Auto Club, spoke to the community about collecting new or used toys for holiday distribution to children and other future community endeavors.
According to Springfield, the Brooklyn based auto club would like to start community-based efforts here in Rockaway because many of the members have now relocated to the area.
On December 8, they will be holding a toy drive, (location still to be determined). They will distribute the toys to kids in need throughout the entire peninsula. Drop-off points are at Kings Pharmacy and Shaggy Dog Inn, both located on Beach 116 Street. The toys can be used or new and don't need to be wrapped. "We are here to help out the community," Springfield said. "That is why we're here and that's what we will be doing."
After Springfield addressed the council, Precinct Captain Tom Barrett briefly discussed the sustained efforts of graffiti prevention and the recent rise of grand larceny incidents involving personal credit cards.
In addition to Springfield and Barrett's remarks, several Beach Channel High School Law Enforcement Explorers were in attendance and were commended by Community Council President Danny Ruscillo for their volunteer efforts with the council and community, particularly with local graffiti cleanup.
Captain Barrett explained that The Law Enforcement Explorers are taught basic law enforcement skills in preparation for police officer careers later in life. It is a program that works in collaboration with the NYPD and is funded through the Boy Scouts of America.

Local traders seemed convinced that the traffic and pedestrian restrictions would lose them more trade than they'd gain by the day's big events. But they'd hardly thrown themselves into that.
Souvenir-hunters went away empty handed. The Windsor gift shop - probably not a family business - had only one Edward and Sophie plate, a rather sad affair in pink, silver and grey. The proprietor said he'd been offered more, "but we all know what always happens to them".
Outside you could have picked up a balloon in red, white or blue. "Edward and Sophie Windsor 19 June 1999", it said on one side. On the other was the legend: "The Body Shop - Congratulations".
Or there were plastic union flags - pounds 1 at 10.30am when the queue was building steadily. By 1.30pm, when the first of the 8,000 members of the public with tickets were admitted into the precincts of Windsor Castle, you could have had two for the same price.
The moment of real excitement outside the castle came when rumours of impending anarchist attack spread around the grounds. This was obviously ludicrous. Everybody knows a decent bit of anarchy takes a lot of organisation.
Besides, anarchy is the kind of thing Windsor Castle was designed to deal with. A lot of the afternoon's guests felt themselves equally well- equipped: many appeared to be of the build of a rugby player.
Inside the castle walls, however, the mood was rather different. Here were thousands of people enthusiastic about the Royal Family - at least keen enough to put a stamp on an envelope and apply for tickets. They like heritage, history, tradition, pageantry, and all the things the New Labour government would like to modernise.
Who better to supply all that those monarchists love than the House of Windsor, brand leaders in Royalty for more than a century, as the media- management speak of the happy couple would have it?
This was supposed to be a Continental-style wedding, chiefly on account of its unusual timing. It seems to have been ideally suited to a particular continent - across the Atlantic.
But however we describe it, it was rather enjoyable for those who made it inside the castle gates. The fun really began as the last of the public collided with the first of the guests.
Most people on both sides had dressed up in honour of the occasion, and it was difficult to decide which was which. That extraordinary creature in the fuchsia negligee? Answer - public. The woman with a tree from a Doctor Seuss book on her head? Answer - a guest.
The guests arrived in white micro-buses from the park-and-ride, like OAPs on a sightseeing trip, which of course many of them were, though noticeably fewer of the wives were in any position to apply for a bus pass.
What a thrill this little trip must have been for the likes of Sir David Frost, who looked as if he hadn't been on a bus since decimalisation.
Meanwhile, the public clapped, cheered, laughed and passed judgement. Not in a cruel way, mind you. There was a sympathetic "Aaahh" when one unfortunate woman arrived in an identical frock to a woman in the previous coach. It was cream with red diamond motifs. Then a man in a waistcoat in similar material. Could these be leftover costumes from It's a Royal Knockout 1987?
Then on to the main course. The Royal Family rattled through nonstop. No opportunities here for sans culottes witticism. Although two women did groan, "Lilac!" when they saw the Queen's ensemble.
The Windsor boys then did the long walk down the hill to the chapel. Charles, with his uncomfortable gait, looked more than ever like a gentleman farmer of eccentric views and habits. Andrew was a man in a different mould - the helicopter hero he undoubtedly is.
Edward in the centre, between his two brothers, looked relaxed and dignified. You could tell he was the television presenter.
Sophie and her father arrived in the fastest-moving vehicle of the day, which must have greatly disappointed all the dress spies from Top Shop.
The bride looked remarkably blonde, under a net of icing sugar. Both spoke their vows flawlessly. Sophie was a little quiet - an excellent thing in a woman, especially one who vows to obey.
It really was a different royal wedding. Perhaps it will be a different royal marriage.

What is a PJC in NC?
A PJC in North Carolina stands for Prayer for Judgment Continued. A "PJC" means a Judge continues judgment so that no finding of guilt is entered into the Court record. Usually the defendant is still responsible for Court costs, which are around $190. Only a Judge may grant a PJC, not the District Attorney. This does not mean that DA in Court has no input as they can either recommend or oppose you obtaining a PJC in Court.
Be careful you fully understand the consequence of accepting a PJC as it does appear on your criminal record despite what many are led to believe by their attorney. In NC nothing ever just falls of your record after a certain number of years, not even a PJC. Also be aware that in North Carolina your adult criminal record begins at age 16, not age 18 like most other States. I receive many calls asking how to expunge a PJC in NC because they have been denied employment based solely on a PJC. Too many defendants accept a PJC when a full dismissal is possible. Always speak with a criminal attorney before asking for a PJC without understanding the long term consequences.
PJC Pro's
- You can truthfully say you were never convicted.
- There usually is no fine outside the ~$190 Court costs.
- North Carolina allows one (1) PJC every three (3) years per insurance policy to avoid insurance points. (be aware if you are on the same policy as a spouse or children)
- A PJC is better than a conviction as you may be able to later have the case dismissed and expunged (emphasis on the word "may")
PJC Con's
- A PJC appears on your criminal history.
- Only a Judge may grant a PJC.
- If you go to Court, plead guilty, and ask for PJC, the Judge may deny your request and find you guilty. (you are at the mercy of the Judge)
- Most employers treat a PJC like a conviction.
- A PJC may be impossible to expunge.
- You can't get a PJC for DWI or speeding in excess of 25 mph over the speed limit.

Abarim Publications' online Biblical Hebrew Dictionary
The masculine noun תאם (to'am) occurs over the whole Semitic spectrum, always meaning twin. It's not clear from which idea this word is formed, but two births for one pregnancy was undoubtedly seen as a blessing. On the other hand: the constellation of Twins was venerated all over the classical world and doesn't seem to be connected to fruitfulness or a two-birds-in-one-stone idea.
In Babylonian astrology the Twins were manifestations of one deity called Nergal (2 Kings 17:30). Nergal wasn't only the chief of the underworld, he also "burned" outdated teachings. In Greek mythology, the Twins, or Dioscuri, were patrons of travelers and particularly sailors (Acts 28:11).
In some stories the Twins were mortal and in some immortal, but one particular strand of mythology depicted one as mortal and the other as immortal. It may be (and now we're guessing) that these Twins reflected confirmation and thus certainty by having someone else agree on an otherwise unsubstantiated proposition. This notion was an important part of Mosaic legislation (Deuteronomy 17:6) and was still evoked in New Testament times (Matthew 18:16).
The masculine noun תאם (to'am) occurs in the Bible four times and only in plural. It denotes the twin boys Jacob and Esau (Genesis 25:24) and Perez and Zerah (Genesis 38:27). The groom of the Song of Solomon equates the breasts of his bride twice with twins of a gazelle (4:5, 7:3).
From our noun comes the denominative verb תאם (ta'am), which may mean to bear twins (Song of Solomon 4:2, 6:6), although twice it's used to describe a feature of boards that were installed in the back of the tabernacle (Exodus 26:24, 36:29). These boards were probably A-frames, two planks joined at the top and standing on their free ends.

UPDATE 2-Hedge fund to launch proxy fight against Walter Energy
* Audley Capital Advisors cites "poor management"
* Weak demand from steelmakers has hurt coal miners (Adds quotes from analyst, background, detail on the fund's holdings and arguments.)
By Allison Martell
Feb 19 (Reuters) - A British hedge fund announced plans on Tuesday to nominate five candidates to the board of Walter Energy Inc, saying investors have lost confidence in the metallurgical coal miner's current board, sending its shares higher.
Walter Energy said it had received the notice of intent from an affiliate of hedge fund Audley Capital Advisors LLP. The company said in a statement it had no contact with Audley aside from the notice of intent.
"Following the acquisition of Western Coal Corp in November 2010, Walter Energy has consistently failed to deliver shareholder value as a result of questionable financial decisions and poor management," said Audley's statement.
Walter Energy, which has operations in western Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom, took a $1.1 billion goodwill impairment charge in the third quarter, largely related to the Western Coal deal. It is set to report fourth-quarter earnings on Wednesday after the close.
In recent quarters, weak demand from steelmakers has hit metallurgical or "coking" coal miners' sales volumes and prices.
"Most of these coal writedowns are market conditions, and almost all the mining acquisitions happen near the top, when you look back. Everyone's faced similar writedowns," said Iberia Capital Partners analyst David Beard. Continued...

Which British city has more miles of canal than Venice? The answer is Birmingham, whose waterways may not throng with gondoliers, but which is no cultural backwater. After all, the dapper conduits around Brindleyplace lead to The Mailbox, where the BBC records that cultural icon The Archers.
Birmingham's cultural landscape is inextricably linked to its people's financial acumen and philanthropic tendencies. We tend to forget the city was the home of industry before Manchester and Liverpool. And much of the profit made in Birmingham's prosperous jewellery and gun industry was invested in culture.
In the second half of the 18th century, enlightened Midlands men formed the Lunar Society, where industry, science and artistic achievement were celebrated in equal measure. One was Josiah Wedgwood. A passionate opponent of slavery, this Staffordshire citizen achieved a near-perfect synthesis of industry and art. The Cadburys, another great Quaker family like the Clarks (see Peter York's article, published today), invested in arts, crafts and education for their workers.
Lady Barber, née Martha Onions, daughter of a wealthy Worcestershire businessman and wife of a Birmingham solicitor and property developer, was the most prominent woman to emerge from this philanthropic heritage. A flamboyant woman with an eccentric streak, she left both families' fortunes to found the Barber Institute of Fine Arts. A wider audience will have an opportunity to experience her legacy when masterpieces including works by Poussin, Turner, Monet and Manet go on show at the National Gallery next month, to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the institute.
Such philanthropy was not exclusive to Lady Barber. Led by Neville Chamberlain, a group of public-spirited citizens founded the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra in 1920. With £1,250 initial funding from the local authority, the CBSO gave its first concert in the same year with the Midlands' proudest musical son Sir Edward Elgar. Even the grumpiest sceptic would have to admit the CBSO track record isn't bad for the provinces. It's a good bet that the current music director, Andris Nelsons will again succeed Sir Simon Rattle, who went from the CBSO to conduct the Berlin Philharmonic, when Sir Simon leaves the German orchestra in 2018.
After 40 years of citizens' campaigning, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery was founded in 1885 by a classic public-private partnership: £40,000 from the council, a £10,000 gift, and private donations paved ways to one of the world's most important Pre-Raphaelite collections.
Other flagship cultural institutions have adopted variations of this model; these aren't easy times for arts organisations facing funding cuts from national and local government. Now more than ever we need the entrepreneurial and philanthropic spirit of latter-day Cadburys and Barbers to support the country's cultural heritage and to play a vital role in its future, because they recognise there's nothing optional about the arts.

The Final Battle
"That I have," said a voice through the fog. A few moments later, an older woman stepped out of the thick fog. She was taller than Kiya, and her eyes were a beautiful blue. When Kiya saw the color of her hair, she gasped. Her mother's hair was bright auburn.
"You…" Kiya stuttered. "You are the murderer! It was you who killed our father!"
"How did you find out about that?" she asked.
"Vasili, it was my fault," Raúl said. "I was teaching her magic and my mind wandered."
"What's done is done," Vasili said. "Kiya, your father wanted to take control of Avlon. He didn't want anyone to disobey him."
"He didn't have to be killed!" Kiya spat, "especially not by his own wife!"
"You don't understand! There was a group of rebels who wanted to overthrow him as king. Being magicians allowed them to trick others into rebelling. Soon the land was split. Your father took those who supported him and led them into war. Entire villages were burned down! He killed innocent people!"
"I do understand! I understand that you murdered him!" Kiya was furious. "He could have been stopped with magic instead of death!"
"Death was the only magic that could stop him!" Raúl said.
"Korth was a monster!" Kaliki growled.
"No he wasn't!" Kiya yelled. "Isa ma vaba teid saatus"
"Kiya, No!" Vasili yelled.
"Mis seob teid!"
Suddenly the fog thickened, and the sky darkened, despite the still- rising sun. Lightning streaked the sky, but no rain fell.
"He hasn't left Caledonia yet," Vasili said frantically. "Kiya, take back the spell! Hurry!"
"No! It wasn't fair, what you did to him!"
"If you will not take back the spell, then we will prepare for battle!" Vasili's words were quick and filled with fear. "Ruick, Sasha, Shauna, can any of you use magic?"
"I can." It was Sasha who spoke.
"Use it to dress yourself, you sister, and your betrothed in armor."
Sasha turned to face Ruick, and muttered a spell under her breath. In a matter of moments Rick's clothing vanished in a swathe of armor. His dark hair was invisible under the steel helm that now capped his head. Now tethered to his belt was a sword, and on his left arm rested a shield.
When Sasha muttered the spell towards Shauna, her dress shortened to her knees. A steel mail hauberk laid gently over her now short- sleeved dress. In her hands she held an ivory bow, and on her back hung a quiver of arrows.
At last Sasha's dress faded to knee length and her sleeves shortened. Chain mail covered her dress and a belt appeared around her waist. Tethered to the belt was a sword, and on her arm was a shield. Hung over her back was an ivory bow and a quiver of arrows.
Kiya turned to face Meko and Kaliki. They were dressed the same as Ruick. Raúl's dress faded and was replaced by a pair of pants and a shirt, all covered in chain mail. Her hair pulled back and a sword became tethered to her leather belt. Underneath her chain mail and around her legs leather appeared in the place of armor. Vasili's dress faded only slightly. The hem now reached her ankles and the sleeves were only slightly above her elbows.
At last Kiya watched her own dress fade to knee length, and the sleeves shortened as well. Chain mail laid gently over the dress, and a sword became tethered to a leather belt. She looked up from her new clothing and turned to face her mother. "He is my father! I refuse to fight!"
"Then you will be killed!" Vasili said. "Men, to arms!"
Soldiers began flooding onto the castle grounds. Magicians popped into sight beside Vasili. Another flash of lightning ripped through the sky, and accompanying it was a roar of thunder that made everyone flinch. The fog slowly thickened and from the midst came a haughty laugh. It was loud and smooth, and it echoed strangely.
"You thought you killed me, didn't you, my wife?" came a thick, rich voice.
"I did kill you, but your daughter brought you back," Vasili called into the fog.
"While I was dead, I made some friends. I really think you should meet them."
"Korth, if you do this you will be killed again, and the rings will be destroyed."
"Destroy them for all I care," Korth said. "My army of living and the living dead will ensure that I survive."
At last he stepped out of the fog. His sapphire-pummeled sword hung from his belt, and a shield with his crest rested on his left arm.
"Come, my friends," He called, "rise from Caledonia and the dark depths beyond! Fight with me and be free of that horrid place!"
Lightning streaked the sky and the ground shook violently. Magicians popped into being beside Korth. Soldiers that had been long dead climbed out of the ground dressed in full armor. Within a few moments the ground before them was filled with Korth's soldiers and magicians.
"What have I done?" Kiya gasped.
"You've unleashed an evil that is more powerful now than ever before!" Raúl spat.
"I rescind the spell!" Kiya shouted.
"Silly, silly daughter!" Korth said. "Rescinding the magic won't work. I'm free of Caledonia's gates,"
"Attack!" Vasili called to her soldiers.
The soldiers poured around them and began mixing with the other soldiers and magicians. Screams and yowls came from the battlefield.
"Stay together and watch each others' back!" Sasha called.
Suddenly a patch of smoke surrounded them. When the smoke cleared, Menari was standing in front of them.
"Well, well, well, if it isn't Angela's angels!" he spat. "How do you think your mother would feel if she knew you took to killing?"
"Angela is not our mother! Our mother's name is Lori," Sasha said.
"So they told you your mother was Lori?"
"Don't you speak our mother's name!" Shauna exclaimed, "Your filthy mouth doesn't deserve to speak the name of a respectable woman!"
"Lori isn't your mother. Angela is, and a harlot is hardly a respectable woman!" Menari sneered.
"You filthy liar!" Shauna spat.
"I'd watch my tongue if I were you!" Menari exclaimed.
"I don't have to watch anything, except an arrow run through you!"
"I would make you regret that, but I'm not going to let you live long enough to give you the chance," he said.
Ruick stepped in front of Shauna and put his shield up. Menari raised his hand, and from somewhere behind him a lance came whizzing through the air. It struck the shield with such force that it didn't stop, but pierced and killed them both.
"No!" Sasha gasped.
Before Sasha could move her sword, Menari disappeared, but his laugh still echoed.
"First my parents and my brother, and now my sister and my betrothed!" Sasha said., with bitterness filling her voice. "Tonight Menari will die at my hand, even if it is the last thing that I do!"
Before anyone could stop her, Sasha darted into the battle. Kiya knew that if she had never talked to Menari then she would have never been able to bring her father back. It was her fault that her friends were dead. Quickly she unsheathed her sword. A soldier rushed towards Raúl, but before he could reach her, Kiya killed him. At first she looked down at the bloody, crumpled corpse in horror, but when she looked up, Raúl could see determination burning in her eyes. As quickly as she unsheathed her sword, Kiya disappeared amongst the mass of bloody, writhing bodies and thrashing swords.
Raúl rushed after Kiya, fearing her sister would be killed. She found Kiya fighting side-by-side with Sasha. Within moments Kiya dispatched her opponent and Sasha's. Spotting Raúl, Kiya nodded. Determination still raged in her eyes, and the three of them dashed off together. Moments later they spotted Menari.
"You distract him while I make my way behind him," Sasha said, "but just don't anger him."
"Alright," Kiya said. Cautiously she approached Menari. "Menari, you were wrong to trick me into bringing my father back."
"I didn't trick you. I just told you how to do it."
Kiya watched as Sasha made her way through the battling soldiers.
"Don't you see just how much he's hurting the people of Avlon?" Kiya asked. Sasha was almost directly behind him.
"To obtain power there are sacrifices that must be made!" he exclaimed.
Kiya looked past Menari to where Sasha was standing. Her blue eyes were cold, yet they were filled with a raging wildfire of determination. She raised her hand as Menari had done. A lance lifted from the ground beside its owner's mangled body, and soared through the air. It hit Menari in his lower back, and instantly he fell to the ground. Sasha walked over and stood above him.
Looking down at him, she said, "You killed my family, but after tonight you won't kill another child's family!"
As Menari took his last breath and closed his eyes, Sasha walked away.
"Should we follow her?" Kiya asked.
"No. She needs to be alone right now. Let's go."
Together they walked off into the flood of soldiers. Side-by-side they fought until their father became visible amongst the soldiers.
"There's only one way to stop him," Raúl said.
"I'll do it," Kiya said.
"You don't have to, you know." Raúl wasn't sure how killing their father would affect her sister.
"Yes, I do," Kiya said. Yet again determination burned in her eyes.
Quickly they moved through the soldiers. Raúl and Kiya stood side- by- side with their swords drawn. A soldier was battling directly behind them. Korth strung an ivory bow with a gold- tipped arrow. He aimed towards the soldier and released. The arrow headed in the direction intended, but missed its target. Instead of hitting the soldier, the arrow hit Raúl.
"No!" Kiya screamed.
Raúl stumbled and fell. Blood soaked the ground around her waist, where the arrow was embedded in her flesh.
Korth looked upon the scene first with satisfaction, but upon realizing he had hit his daughter, he let the bow fall from his hands.
"No!" he whispered, his voice shaking. "No!" He rushed to where Raúl laid on the ground. Her breath came in short, ragged, gasps and her hands were shaking as she grasped the arrow shaft.
"See what your madness has caused?" she rasped.
"I am sorry," he said, "Can you ever forgive me?"
"Anyone can hold a grudge, it's what we do best. It takes a true human to forgive."
Korth stood up and looked around the battlefield. "Everyone stop!" he roared. Men and magicians alike stopped at the sound of Korth's voice. "This war is of great cost to all of you and of no gain to me," he thundered on. "And because of this madness I might lose my daughter."
"No!" Vasili screamed from within the mass of mottled soldiers.
"If there is a magician among you who can heal her, please show yourself." Korth scanned the crowd with dismay, for not a single movement was made. He was about to give up hope, when a young woman separated herself from the crowd. Her hair was mottled, and her face was streaked with dirt and blood. Her blue eyes were stained with grief. When Kiya looked up, her eyes rested on Sasha.
"I can heal her, but it will be for her, not you, that I do it," Sasha said, her voice filled with bitterness. She knelt down and looked carefully at the arrow protruding from Raúl and the bloody area surrounding it. "The arrow sunk deep," Sasha said. "Even after it is removed, she'll still feel pain. There will surely be a scar, as well."
"But you can save her?" Korth asked.
"I said I could, didn't I?" Sasha snapped. She pulled a small knife from where it had been hidden under her belt. She unsheathed it and carefully began cutting the leather and cloth from around Raúl's waist. Looking intently at the wound, Sasha began mumbling a spell. Raúl screamed as the arrow dislodged itself from her body. The opening around where the arrow had been closed quickly, though the skin was still red and swollen. Slowly Raúl sat up, wincing as pain shot through her side.
"Thank you, Sasha," Raúl said, her voice no longer being barely a whisper.
"It was the least I could do after all you did to help me and my…." she paused, closing her eyes briefly. "My family."
"I'm sorry about Ruick and Shauna," Raúl said. "They shouldn't have died here."
"Doesn't matter now." Sasha stood up silently and began walking away.
"Come, my daughters," Korth said. "Let us leave this pain stained field. Come with us, Sasha. You will be the castle's guest."
Sasha waked back and stood beside Kiya. Together they helped Raúl to her feet.
"All of you that I have brought from Caledonia, go home to your families," Korth said to the mass of soldiers. "All of you who stay here, go wash, eat and get some sleep. All of the wounded, go to the healers."
Men began to go in their separate directions. Those who could walk helped those who could not as every man and woman struggled to escape the field of dead bodies.

Police today launched a murder hunt after the 65-year-old man suffered a heart attack when he was held up at knifepoint by the robber.
The victim was helping out his friend whose sons own the store when a masked man in his twenties burst in demanding money.
The raider put the knife to the man's throat before reportedly stabbing him in the side of the stomach.
Today it emerged the victim - named as Arulanantham Jayasundarakumar - had arrived in Britain just months earlier from Sri Lanka with his wife.
The robber attacked the Jena store in Newbury Park, east London, just after 8pm yesterday.
The shop's co- owner Arunan Jenanachandren described today how he raced to the convenience shopwhen his father Nadarajah, called him to say Mr Jayasundarakumar had been attacked.
He told how he held the hand of the family friend - known affectionately as "Uncle" - before paramedics battled to save his life at the scene. Mr Jenanachandren, 23, said: "I wasn't there but saw the CCTV before I had to give it to police. Between quarter past and half past eight this guy came in wearing a woolly hat and a blue jacket. His face was almost completely covered.
"He walked straight in and down the shop then he came round behind my uncle, got behind him at knifepoint to his neck and asked him for money. He was just asking 'Money money, money'.
"My dad went for the cash so he could get rid of him but my uncle kept on moving his arms because he was panicking. Then the guy pushed him towards the till area. My dad was going to hand over the cash to the guy when suddenly he let go of my uncle and ran out of the shop and my uncle fell down.
"My dad phoned the police thinking it was just an attempted robbery and at that moment he saw blood so he told them that my uncle was injured and asked for an ambulance.
"My dad then rang home and I ran to the shop and as I got there the police and ambulance were just arriving.
"My uncle was lying on the ground with blood around him. There were two guys helping him. I came in and held his hand for a brief time. I just said to him 'Don't worry, hang on, hang on'.
Mr Jayasundarakumar died at the shop and a post-mortem will take place today at East Ham mortuary.
Mr Jenanachandren said Mr Jayasundarakumar was talking about moving back to Sri Lanka shortly before last night's attack. He said: "He didn't like life over here so much. He missed the climate and the colour of Sri Lanka, where he had land and space rather than all this greyness and rain. But he had wanted to be with his family."
A police spokesman said: "The circumstances of the incident are being investigated by officers from the Homicide and Serious Crime Command. We are keeping an open mind re motive at this very early stage."
Anyone with information is asked to call the incident room number at Barking on 020 8345 3865 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

About MeHeyy MM! I'm Alysha and my goal is to expand my modeling portfolio as well. I'm very new to Model Mayhem, so I'm still figuring out how this works! I have done a few photo shoots and some events as a promotional model, but definitely looking forward to more jobs to gain experience!
One more thing, I am VERY leery about who I work with, so giving me as much info about yourself as well as websites and Facebook pages to check out helps a lot too.

In this article, I described 4 simple stretching exercises to get rid of back pain. These exercises are worked in abdomen and make you slim. Do these exercises regularly and get rid of back pain in 3 weeks. Follow all the instruction given in all the exercises.
Vertical Forward Bend: This is a simple exercise,which strengthen lower back muscles and also corrects your posture.
instructions: Just stand in the flat area. Keep your legs slightly apart. Lift your both arms up and bent down slowly to touch your toes. Make sure your knees must be straight. Stay at least 5-10 seconds at the bent position, then return to the starting point. Repeat this steps to 10 times.
Vertical Background Bend: This exercise is the reverse of vertical forward bend. It gives more strength to back muscles. It is little tough for beginners, compare to forward bend.
Instructions: Stand in the flat floor. Bend backwards slowly because doing this , you may loss your balance and chance to fall. Stay 5-10 seconds at this position and return to the starting position. Do this 5-10 repetitions.
Vertical Leg Raise: This is an effective exercise used to slim your abdomen, but it is really used to reduce back pain. This is very easy exercise compared to all.
Instructions: Lie on the flat floor with some smooth substance at the back, Keep your both arms flat on the floor and rest your head flat. Keep your knees straight and bring the legs to lower. Repeat 4-5 sets with 10-20 repetitions.
Reverse Crunch: This also used to reduce back pain and to make crunches in your abdomen.
Instructions: Lie on the flat floor with knees bend position. Keep your arms upwards. Make sure to keep your knees at 90 degree to the point of floor. Return to the starting position and do this 5-10 repetitions.
Tips & Warnings
