New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - January 5, 1984, New Braunfels, Texas Opinions Kras<r, General Manager Hwrnld-Ztltung Thursday, January 5,1984 4 ■•bart Johnson, EditorAndy RooneyForgetfulness comes very easy to me AU four kids came home for the Christmas hoUdays and after they'd departed aU we had left to remember them by was one hat, a pair of running shoes, two sweaters, a nightgown, a raincoat, three socks and a blue jacket. The only mystery is the blue jacket. We've caUed aU of them except Brian and none of them claims the jacket. It wouldn't fit Brian. The feeling is that it belongs to one of their friends who came over to the house to visit whUe they were home. Leaving things behind when they're home for a few days is a tradition with the kids in our famUy. Brian often brings a bag of laundry to do and once he even left that in the dryer. Forgetting things is something the children come by naturally. I'veJack Anderson taught them everything they know about it. I've left things all over: — Once I left a camera on the top of Barry Goldwater's car when we were filming a show with him near the Grand Canyon. — Several years ago I turned in a rental car at the airport in Frankfurt, Germany, and left my suitcase in the trunk. I was halfway to New York before I remembered it. — The Thursday before Christmas I stopped at the information booth in Grand Central terminal to pick up a timetable. I put down a shopping bag I was carrying while I looked at the train schedule. After seeing what train I could catch, I rushed off, leaving the shopping bag with $200 worth of Christmas presents in it in the middle of one of the busiest places Mrs. Marcos at odds with ambassador to Philippines WASHINGTON - A strange and ironic feud has erupted in Manila, between the Philippines first lady and the American ambassador. The irony lies in the fact that until recently, Ambassador Michael Ar-macost was widely regarded as one of the few friends of ailing President Ferdinand Marcos' beleaguered regime. The ambitious first lady, Imelda Marcos, continues to play a powerful role in her husband's government. Now she apparently feels that, with friends like Armacost, who needs enemies? For his part, the ambassador is trying to put some distance between the Reagan Administration and the Marcos dictatorship, which many Filipinos hold responsible for the assassination of opposition leader Benigno Aquino last August. The U.S. aim is to hedge against the day when Marcos dies or is forced out. In angry retaliation, Mrs. Marcos has engaged in guerrilla warfare against Armacost, inspiring articles in the government-controlled press to the effect that the ambassador is "interfering" in the internal affairs of the Phillipines. A State Department source told my associate Lucette lagnado about a strange report that Mrs. Marcos accused Armacost of saying that her husband had resigned. This was regarded as an attempt to damage the ambassador's credibility in both Washington and Manila. Armacost has returned the fire. In a speech to the Rotary Club of Makati, the financial suburb of Manila, Armacost dwelt at length on the "brutal political assassination" of Aquino. He noted pointedly that Aquino had articulated "political beliefs most Americans share — a belief in a free press, in free elections, in due process of law." As his listeners well knew, Marcos tolerates none of these. The ambassador also warned that failure to conduct a thorough, honest investigation of Aquino's murder would "inevitably complicate" U.S.-Philippines relations. In another speech, to the Manila Overseas Press Club, Armacost sarcastically brushed aside suggestions iii the Philippine press that American media criticism of Marcos played an important role in the refusal of international banks to renew credit to the Philippines. 1 "As a group," Armacost observed, • "bankers do not tend to make their *■ decisions simply on the basis (rf news and media reports." * Citizens* watch Of all the complaints that flood into my office from my citizens' network, probably the most frequent have to do with lawyers. From Oklahoma City, Earl David Shaffer writes: "A housecleaning of our court system is long overdue. American citizens are victimized by crooked Lawyers who take advantage of their legal training to on earth. I got to the train, took off my coat and sat down to read the paper before I remembered it. I rushed back and the bag was still sitting where I'd left it, having been passed by several thousand people in the meantime. — The following day I stopped at a good electrical supply store to buy two dozen extra Christmas tree replcaement light bulbs. After I'd bought and paid for the bulbs, I saw some batteries I needed. I told the clerk I wanted those, too. He put them tai a bag ani rang them up. I paid for them ani waked off, leaving the bulbs I'd come to get in the first place on the counter. When I take a shower in a hotel room in the morning, I often hang my pajamas on the back of the bathroom door. I get out of the shower, dry off Leaving things behind when they're home for a few days is a tradition with the kids hi our family. Brian often brings a bag of laundry to do and once he even left that in the dryer. and open the door. The pajamas are there hidden from my view and I often pack without them. I suppose I've lost half a dozen pairs of pajamas that way. I get very attached to pajamas, too. Some of the ones I lost were real favorites but they'd seen so much . service and were so well worn that I was too embarrassed to write the hotel and ask that they send them to me. If I hadn't been leaving things behind since I was about nine, I'd think I was losing my mind with age. There's never been a time in my life when I wasn't forgetting things. During my early days in the Army at Fort Bragg, we used to have to fall out in the company street for a roll call at 6 a.m. We were supposed to be properly dressed and carrying our rifles. On three mornings over a period of two weeks, I lined up on time but on each occasion I forgot my rifle. "How do you like that," Sergeant Fischuk said to the assembled company, point me out as a horrible example of what an education can do to a man, "Rooney's got a college education and he don't even remember to bring his rifle." One of the most distressing things I do regularly is forget where I've parked my car. In November I drove my car into the city one morning, parked it and went to wrok. At 5:25 p.m. I left the office, hurried to the railroad station for a train I often ride and took it home. I never remembered I'd driven in until I got to my destination and realized I didn't have a car parked there to drive home in. Last night I made some notes I was going to use when I wrote this column but I forget what was on them and unfortunately, when I came to work this morning, I'd left the notes on my dresser. punishment." From Seattle, Erie Peterson demands: "Have you ever tried to file a grievance against an attorney? rurget it. The grievance committee will be made up of lawyers, who are more inclined to protect fellow lawyers than wronged diets. So what is left for you to do? File a malpractice suit? Forget it. The judges are also attorneys." From San Diego, a private detective, who requests that his name be withheld, reports, "California has been hit with an epidemic of lawsuits filed by ambulance-chasing lawyers who solicit business and offer to take their fees out of the judgments. The lawyers have little to lose: just the time it takes them to prepare the paperwork. But the victims are put through the anguish and expense of a costly legal defense. If the lawyers lose the gamble, they can write it off. The cost was nominal. But the victims are out thousands of dollars and many sleepless nights." From Long Island, Joel Cohen writes: "There is a new breed of vultures preying upon the American public. They're the attorneys who con their clients into believing they cm get something for nothing by filing claims against doctors, hospitals, corporations, etc. Don't they know that the cost of defending and settling these lawsuits is passed on to the public? High-premium malpractice insurance has become part of every doctor's basic overhead. No wonder doctor bills are so iiigh. Just about everyone doing business must retain a stable of lawyers. No wonder prices keep soaring. Litigation is one (rf the principal causes of inflation in this country." From a suburb of Atlanta, J.M. Hall contends: "Lawyers and judges will never clean up their own profession. You simply can't count on lawyers to discipline themselves. It will take legislation, a legal code of conduct, to bring lawyering under control in America."

Political potpourri After three months of campaigning, former Sen. George McGovern, D-S.D., is still hopeful, in a modest way. "Any man running for the presidency always has at least a hope that he cm win, that lightening cm strike," he said. McGovern thinks the Iowa caucus will be his lightning rod. — Democratic National Chairman Charles Mans ti waxed nostalgic at a recent fund-raiser and recalled the last time ha was in the particular hole room: "a gathering of Youth for Johnson and Humphrey in 1N6." He added: "May we do as well this time as we did Ulm" — evidenUy forgetting that the election was actually in UM. EUNlNMnNfr HUNGER WWTUt NMHISWWN'S Washington Today Reagan's aides optimistic about 1984 By JAMES QER8TENZANG Associated Press WASHINGTON - Within a one-week period at the end (rf the month, President Reagan will unveil his budget, his view of the State (rf the Union, and his political plans for the election year. He faces a Congress seeking an independent path on the budget and Lebanon and shows no progress in stemming the tide of slipping support for the deployment of U.S. Marines to Beirut. Still, the president's aides, looking at a longer-range political picture, are optimistic about 1964. David R. Gergen, Reagan's assistant for communications, said "he's substantially stronger Ulm he was a year ago, helped mostly by the economy." White House officials, pointing to economic recovery, say economic matters are less likely to be significant campaign issues as a result of the progress in stemming inflation, bringing down interest rates and restoring growth. Rather, they say, international affairs are most likely to play a major role in the presidential campaign. Within hours of his return to the Oval Office on the first business day of the year, Reagan was conferring with three key Republican senators who are stressing what one of them, Sen. Bob Dole af Kansas, said is "the necessity to face up to the deficit." Having completed work on the spending side of the federal budget for fiscal 1985, the president is focusing on the key revenue decisions — in other words, how to reduce the budget deficit without cutting spending anymore or raising taxes. The red ink is expected by the administration to reach about $170 billion in the next fiscal year, but other estimates put it higher. It was only after most of the key budget decisions were made that Reagan brought in the senators on Tuesday. Dole, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, was part of a trio that included Senate Majority Leader Howard H. Baker Jr. of Tennessee and Sen. Pete V. Domeruci of New Mexico, chairman of the Senate Budget Committee. Domenici, sounding reluctant to go along with Reagan's adamant opposition to tax increases, said "there are going to have to be taxes in future years. The question is when do you do those?" The three emerged from the budget meeting to also make clear their apprehension about Reagan's use of the U.S. Marines in Lebanon. Baker, asked whether support for the Marines' deployment was eroding, replied, "I don't think there was a lot of support for them to go there to begin with." At the White House, the nation is seen to be "passing through a phase now on war and peace," an official said, using a phrase that refers to concerns about Reagan's willingness to use military forces as instruments of foreign policy. The phase was brought on "by events in the Middle East, with the continuing shooting there, and the fact that U.S.-Soviet talks aren't going on," said the official, who asked not to be quoted by name. "There are no questions there are some risks in front of him next year" dealing with the Middle East and "how people look upon the U.S.-Soviet relationship," Gergen said. Reagan's aides are taking pains to portray him as more than willing to negotiate with the Soviets and resume the medium- and long-range missile reduction talks that have stalled in Geneva, Switzerland. Some newspaper notes about the Goodman release By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Here is a sampling of editorial reaction to Syria's freeing of Navy Ii. Robert Goodman Jr. after a plea by the Rev. Jesse Jackson, a candidate for the Democratic presidential "Now tbs second-guessing starts. For the present, suffice it that Jackson produced The last American hostages in the Mideast had MB days to wait before they walked. 'Too bad Jackson wasn't involved in that one." — Sioux City lioweJ Journo/. "As the saying goes, there is no arguing with success, and the excursion of Democratic presidential hopeful Jesse Jackson to Syria was successful in all of Us objectives: It freed UJ5. Navy LL. Robert Goodman, boosted Jackson's candidacy, made Syria and its President Hates Assad look reasonable and forthcoming and President Reagan seem stubbornly against accomodation." "The lieutenant's release is the one accomplishment among those that all Americans can rejoice in, as, additionally, we take pride in the professionalism with which Goodman conducted himstlf in the circus that was roistering around his release." — Tho Conttitutton, Atlanta, Ga. "Citizen diplomacy is risky — for governments, tor individuals who try it and for international negotiation. But in this instance the risks proved worth taking. Welcome home, Robert Goodman." — MinnoopoHe Saw and Tribune. "Does the Goodman release enhance the credibility, hence the standing, of Jesse Jackson? Yss, but it shouldn't Why?

885 reviews | 4.3 out of 5
Overall this printer seems to meet my expectations, I printed a photo by using some Kodak high glossy picture paper and let me tell you this printer printed it professional, real good quality. I see alot of reviews on here did not like it, but I know I do. Loved the way it was packaged inside the box, with them handles on the ends what held the printer in place, I like that I can pull on them and they lift the printer out the box with ease. The set up and installation went smoothly on installing it. It aint got to be wireless for me to use, cause I get to the point of not liking to do all the steps it takes to print wireless from my wireless network. I am very well pleased with this printer. It's perfect to me. The price to me is inexpensive to me. I waited to order it on tax free holiday.I had a USB cable at home without the need of buying a new one. I love to print coupons, thats my main reason for getting it. I like that it is a all in one without the need of going other places and having to pay to print.
It is VERY easy to use and since I only use a cell phone, I don't need the fax function that most All In One printers have.
I love my new HP Deskjet 1512 Inkjet All-In-One Printer. It does everything I want it to do as for school and my projects. If I had to buy another printer the HP Deskjet 1512 Inkjet All-In-One Printer will be mine again. This is an Awesome printer and I just love it because it print, copy and scan and that is just Great. I rate this printer as an Excellent printer people will be lost if they do try the HP Deskjet 1512 Inkjet All-In-One Printer. This product is top of the line for me I love it so much I just might have to get another one. It is so easy to use and the ink is not very expensive and it carry the same number 61 both cartridge. There are no different number of ink cartridges for the HP Deskjet 1512 Inkjet All-In-One Printer.
I mainly just needed a new secondary printer after my other one died, and did not want to spend a lot on one. My main thing was to buy one that would use the same HP 61 ink cartridges as the one I was replacing. I did not expect much from this also being a copier or scanner. I am extremely pleased with the few photos I have scanned so far, and also that I no longer have to go to the grocery store and pay 25 cents a page for copies. I would definitely recommend this product.
It would not recognize the ink cartridge, the lights would not go off neither would it come one automatically
The HP Deskjet 1512 is everything they say it is, and a $25 price tag was just too great a deal to pass up!
You will need an added cable (not included - USB on one end, type B-USB on the other). I'm sort of geeky, so I had one that I just stole from another device I'm not presently using, and that worked fine. Another note, that some shoppers might miss, is the ink cartridges are just the start up type & you'll need to purchase the cartridges (black, and color) that will print more than 50 pages before they run out of ink. But I assume most printers are sold with the minimum size cartridge(s) the companies can get away with -- so, bearing these two points in mind (need for a cable & more print cartridges, soon after purchase), this is probably why this otherwise excellent HP Printer combo sold for only $25. Many folks today are fairly technologically-savvy tho, and if you count yourself among these folks, then this Deskjet will be an irresistible purchase!
Loved the packaging, the plastic bag the printer was in, inside the Styrofoam actually had handles on it to make it easy to pull the printer out. Set up and installed on my computer in just minutes! I didn't need a wireless printer so I am using a USB cord with it. Works great with the Windows 8.1
Uses one of the popular HP inks 61 or 61XL both black and tri color. Just very easy. Fairly fast, faster than I expected it to be. I also like the design of the paper tray where the copies come out, it folds up very easily thus taking less room on the credenza until needed.
I know some reviews said this model did not hold enough paper, but for my use it certainly does. It also prints some really nice pics!!!!!! I use Kodak picture paper for these and I have to say they are as good as if not better than the prints I use to get when I had to have film developed.
Also works well with both the 'matte' finish and the 'shiny' finish of picture paper.
I am very pleased with this printer!!!!! For me it is PERFECT!!
Excellent printer for the lower end budget. Purchased for the computer in the guest room this printer was selected with light duty use in mind. Quality of printing and copying is excellent. One touch copy is independent of computer.
Setup was fairly easy and straight forward. I purchased the bundle that included the 15' usb printer cable and a high capacity color cartridge. Unit did come with starter ink, but it does not come with a printer cable. Cable in bundle did not work with this device. Win7 reports errors in communicating with unknown device when trying to set unit up with 15' cable. I swapped out the printer cable with an old 6' printer usb printer cable and the device was immediately recognized. From here setup was easy. Just run the install CD.
Unit is very light weight. I wouldn't trust it to hold up to continuous heavy use or for business use, but so far it's been perfect for personal light duty use.
My son installed on my laptop with Windows Vista. Would print test sheet fine. Would not print off a document or a website or anything. Kept saying there was 0 margin, & wouldn't print. On a document page like you type a letter on, it would print the first letter of a word, go to the next line & print the second letter of that word, go to the next line & print the third letter, etc.. My son spent about 12 hours trying everything he found online & even from HP. Nothing worked. He tried to install it on his emachine desktop & it wouldn't even install. And my son knows quite a bit about computers, he's on it all the time, and adds parts to it, too. He saw other people online with Vista that had the same kind of problems. I had to go to the library to print out a receipt to return it since MY printer had broke and this one wouldn't work, & there was no packing slip of any kind in the box. Will get a Canon. Had one before, so hope it works. The printing was fine on the test paper, & was quiet while printing.
I bought this to replace an HP Deskjet 1050 which I've been using to scan family pics. I was able to scan thousands of pics with the 1050. I scanned about ten pictures using this new 1512. I liked that it cropped the pics for me. However, the quality is not the same as the old 1050, not even close. Some were almost blurry even. Also, the ad said that it used HP61 ink cartridges. I did not want to waste the ink I had already bought for the 1050, but once I set up the new 1512, I got an error message telling me I couldn't use the HP61 ink cartridges. There is a "new generation" HP61 ink cartridge. Frustrating. There was no USB cord, but I had one from the old scanner so that wasn't a problem for me. I guess I got lucky with the last one. This newer model is not an upgrade! Thought it was a good deal, but I guess I got what I paid for this time. I will be taking this one and the one I bought for my daughter back to Walmart.
OK first let me say I have always been a H/P owner since I have own a computer, so of course when my HP photo smart C4280 all in one printer gave up after at least 10 years of perfect printing, copying, scanning service, I went to get another HP all in one printer, so I purchased this HP 1512. Well the first time out of the box this printer printed smudged and missing color, I ran the cleaner and the deep cleaner, still to no avail horrible printing, so to give it the benefit of the doubt I took it back and got another one, again straight out of the box the printing was clearer but still missing some of the color and this time there were small color boxes all down the page in 3 lines across the page, I have never been so disappointed in a product before. So I will be returning this also, I ordered and have gotten a Brother J450DW all in one only $20.00 more and straight out of the box this is a WONDEFUL printer, so my advice to you is pay the extra $20.00 and get a better printer, don't waste your time or money (gas with trips back to store) on this printer
I was skeptical about this printer because of the price and some stories I've heard from my father (computer repair man) about this brand but I was under a time and money constraint so I decided to go with it. To my surprise this is the best printer I have come across since they came out with printers when I was a kid! It copies great! It scans perfectly! When you print pictures they come out better than they are on the device you took them with! This printer is amazing and definitely worth more than what I paid for it ( $50 bundle package shipped to my home)! When my husband gets home from being deployed he's going to freak out because now we have an amazing printer instead of having to go and pay someone to scan copy and print his paperwork!!!!
I almost bought this printer for $49.00 at my local Walmart. I didn't get it because a clerk told me that they no longer sell USB cables, which does not come with the printer. I planned to see if I could get something similar online, where I could buy the cable with the printer. I was VERY pleased to find this same printer for $29.95 on Walmart.com, one of those special prices that you don't see until you put the item in the cart. I bought it, along with a USB cord and both were delivered promptly. For anyone interested in this printer, this is the USB cord I bought:VCOM USB 2 0 Type A Male to Type B Male. Nowhere did I find information on what kind of cord was needed - not even on the HP site. There were Male to Female, Mini Male to Male, etc. This one was the first one that came up, and most were Male to Male, so I took a chance and it worked. Specifying the exact connection of the USB cord would have helped.
The printer was easy to instal on a Toshiba laptop and prints, scans and copies very well. I found that it wasn't easy to find a good printer that wasn't wireless. Most offered are for use with WiFi, and we didn't need that. Staples didn't even have any cord connected printers in their store. I would definitely recommend this printer to anyone looking for a good buy and good product.
The black and white, and color printing does just fine. I did not need wireless printer. I actually purchased HP, Canon and Epsom wireless and had problems with every one of them trying to set up wireless. I finally settled on this neat printer that just does fine when you connect to a USB port. I actually just wanted a copier. The color and black and white is fine if you are not a perfectionist in photo printing. I do a lot of reduction and enlarging an image. This, the printer will not do unless you have a basic photo edit software, which I do. The printer responds well, it just takes a little time to reduce or enlarge in the software and send it to the printer. What can I say, for me it is great utility printer for the price. I paid $38.00 and ink seems cheaper than many printers.
After finding out how to use the grayscale so that I wouldn't use the color ink or a lot of the black ink, I was more than pleased with this printer. For $26.77 you can't beat that price. Even if this printer fails quickly, the ink itself is worth the amount of money spent on this unit. So far I've only printed online coupons and documents and copied several items, and the print quality is great. For those not wanting to use the color ink, just go to your start button, type in printers, select devices and printers, and then right click on this printer's picture. Click printing preferences in the window that pops up, then click the advanced button on the layout tab (at the bottom). Last step is to scroll to "print in grayscale" and click that.. make sure "high quality grayscale" is chosen. This step will then make everything you print out, print in grayscale... no color ink and no bold black ink will then be used.
I had a Kodak printer and I hated it. Wouldn't print unless it had both ink cartridges had ink at the same time. Now with this HP works in just one single cartridge in the printer or even if you ran out of ink in one of either colors. It's quiet too and print pretty fast. Did I mention the price for the black ink is $14.49 and the color $20.98. The combo pack $34.98. Now the XL size will cost more but I don't use my printer everyday. I highly recommend this printer. No, it's not wireless.
I ordered the printer on a Tuesday and it was delivered 2 days later. I was pleasantly surprised.
I found it was easy to set up and test. The quality of the product and the printing is excellent. I would definitely recommend this product.
I had an old Lexmark printer, when I bought a new computer with Windows 8.1, it wouldn't work. Also, the cost of printer cartridges was expensive. I found this printer online, couldn't believe how inexpensive it was. I also checked the price of ink refills, so much less than my old printer. It was easy to set this printer up, it was compatible with Windows 8.1, and the documents I've printed look really good. I would recommend this printer to anyone on a budget, Walmart was quick to ship, altogether this is a really good buy. I also purchased the 3 year warranty, it's offered when the printer is registered, so I have peace of mind that it will be covered beyond the original warranty period. Again, I am very satisfied with my purchase.
Have had this printer for about 2 weeks and so far it works like a charm. Didn't need anything fancy and wanted one that used the same ink cartridges as our previous one. Easy set up and a good price.
I was able to install this printer in 30 minutes. 15 minutes was spent uninstalling my other printer software. All I had to do was take off the tape, pop in the cartridges, and plug in the printer. This printer is great for those of us who don't need a lot bells and whistles. A simple printer for a great price. I'm looking forward to many years of great printing and occasional scanning. Been an HP user for years so I expect that this printer will last as long as my previous inkjet printers.
Also, you can't beat the cartridge prices or the fact that you can print only in black and white. A big wallet saver.

All this time I was finding myself, and I didn't know I was lost." -Avicii, "Wake Me Up" I am a university student who is studying to become a special education teacher. When I am not studying, I enjoy writing, reading, watching movies and television, and playing around with computer graphics and web design. Right now, my main focuses are finishing my teaching degree and possibly completing a NaNoWriMo novel in my original fiction series - "Jeremiah Falls." My personal experiences largely affect my writing, whether I mean for them to or not. While the events of Jeremiah Falls are largely fictional, many of of my values and cultural influences can be found throughout the series. My belief in family and close friendships is the main theme of the series, and my faith in God is a major source of inspiration. Jeremiah Falls not only explores the importance of family, but it also explores some of the key issues that people face on a daily basis. While some such issues may be considered controversial, I believe that these issues should be talked about on some level, and I try to explore these issues in a way that is respectful to all of potential readers. I really enjoy writing in the world of Jeremiah Falls, and I hope that, in your time here, it will come to mean as much to you as it does to me.

The Basic exes do not run on an "off the shelf" Windows 95 system as

Crusader Hawthorn (Crataegus crus-galli 'Cruzam')
For an eye-catching small tree, consider thornless Crusader hawthorn. It produces white flowers in spring followed by orange berries that burnish red with fall frosts. Berries linger into winter, beckoning birds. Fall color is showy, with shades of red, orange and gold. Grows to 15 feet tall and wide. Hardy in Zones 4 to 7.
Rejoice™ Crabapple (Malus 'Rejzam')
This crabapple boasts pretty-in-pink spring blooms with very little fruit set following. The tree has a strongly upright form that doesn't require pruning to maintain shape. Use this drought tolerant tree as a specimen or planted as part of a mixed border. Grows 15 to 20 feet tall and wide. Hardy in Zones 4 to 7.
First Editions Snowdance Japanese Tree Lilac (Syringa reticulata 'Bailnce')
Savor the beauty of lilacs in a tree form. Fragrant white blooms blanket this lilac in early summer, fading without producing ugly seed pods. The tree shape has a strong round canopy that's wider than tall. It creates great shade and is a good street tree or specimen in a yard. Grows 18 feet tall by 20 feet wide. Hardy in Zones 3 to 7.
Black Tupelo (Nyssa sylvatica)
A showy native tree, black tupelo has a broadly pyramidal shape that provides cooling shade. Fall color is reliably striking and features shades of red, purple, yellow and orange. Use as a street tree, in a naturalized wildlife garden or as a shade tree. Hardy in Zones 4 to 9.
Northern Catalpa (Catalpa speciosa)
This tall tree puts on a spectacular flower show in early summer. Blossoms fade to form long cigar-like pods, giving rise to the common name of cigar tree. Catalpa tolerates urban growing conditions easily and makes a good avenue tree. Plant as a shade tree but away from swimming pools to avoid excessive plant litter in the water. Grows to 60 feet tall by 40 feet wide. Hardy in Zones 4 to 8.
Littleleaf Linden (Tilia cordata)
Choose littleleaf linden for an excellent shade tree with an eye-catching form. Fragrant flowers with striking lime-green bracts cover the tree in early to midsummer. Linden blooms beckon bees like crazy. Grows to 60 feet tall by 40 feet wide. Hardy in Zones 3 to 7; can survive in Zone 8 with afternoon shade.
Allegheny Serviceberry (Amelanchier laevis)
A hearty native tree, serviceberry forms a multi-stemmed clump if left unpruned. Alternately, prune to one main stem for an eye-catching small tree. White flowers appear in early spring followed by fruits that ripen from pink to deep purple. Fall color is spectacular with orange, gold and red. Grows 15 to 30 feet tall by 10 to 15 feet wide. Hardy in Zones 4 to 8.
Common Hackberry (Celtis occidentalis)
This tall native tree is an elm cousin and has a similar form—elegant and spreading. It's a good choice for a shade tree in a yard. Hard berry-like fruit ripens in late summer and lures in flocks of migrating birds. Hackberry grows 40 to 60 feet tall by 40 to 50 feet wide. Hardy in Zones 2 to 9.
Three Flowered Maple (Acer triflorum)
This small maple fits neatly into average suburban yards and is a good replacement for the popular but invasive amur maple. Plant as a specimen tree or in small groupings. Fall color typically features a blend of orange-red and gold. Grows 20 to 30 feet tall and wide. Hardy in Zones 4 to 7.
Seven-Son Flower (Heptacodium miconioides)
White flowers blanket this small tree (to 20 feet tall) in late summer and early fall. Pink flower bases linger for weeks after. Landscape use: Good choice for drought-tolerant landscape or seaside plantings. Use in wildlife gardens. Hardy in Zones 5 to 8.
American Hornbeam (Carpinus caroliniana)
Known by a host of common names, including musclewood, ironwood and blue beech, this native tree brings strong beauty to the landscape. Thin, slate-gray bark has a muscled appearance and looks striking in wintry scenes. Hornbeam is a low-maintenance tree that thrives in the shade of other trees. Fall color includes yellow, red and orange. Grows 15 to 20 feet tall by up to 40 feet across. Hardy in Zones 3 to 9.
Buttonwood (Conocarpus erectus var. sericeus)
Meet an evergreen tree that lends a showy presence to a yard. Flowers are easily overlooked, but produce showy red-brown fruits that beckon birds. This silvery beauty tolerates urban conditions and makes a great street-side tree, or plant several to create a hedge. It also survives well in containers. Grows to 50 feet tall by 20 feet wide. Hardy in Zones 9B to 10.
Bur Oak (Quercus macrocarpa)
This sturdy native oak is usually one of the tallest, reaching heights of 80 feet. Acorn caps feature a woody fringe along the edges, explaining the common name of bur or mossy cup oak. Acorns are large, growing to 2 inches long. It's probably too big for most yards, but works as a great shade tree. Gnarled branch formation is striking in a wintry landscape. Grows 70 to 80 feet tall and wide. In open settings, width can become equal to height. Hardy in Zones 2 to 9.

"Visit to eye hospital Dudley road Birmingham"
About: Birmingham Midland Eye Centre Birmingham Midland Eye Centre B18 7QH
Posted by Birmingham boy (as ),
Travelled to Dudley road Birmingham eye hospital with my son who was in some pain, having been seen by our G. p..
Queue was long and heading towards the door, only one person dealing with people while others chatted and wandered about. No sense of urgency, finally saw triage nurse who said first appointment wasn't until late afternoon, or do you want to come back tomorrow! Unbelievable and they call that a service! ! I feel like this is the NHS at it's worst and most useless. Attend a hospital just to be fobbed off with an appointment for 8 hours plus time! ! I think we would have done better to go to a and E at the Queen Elizabeth hospital! !
Response from City Hospital 12 months ago
I am sorry to hear that you and your son had a poor experience at our hospital. This is disappointing as the team work hard to give a great service, and our waiting times for emergency care are outstanding on most occasions.
As you imply, some eye issues can be dealt with at standard A&E departments, and so those needing specialised care on an urgency basis will be seen first in the service that we run.
I do hope if you use us again your son has a better experience.
Toby Lewis, Chief Executive

Haze 2 ?
1 replies 43 views Edited Jan 27, 2012
Hey Sony why do you not bring out haze 2 the story for Haze 1 was very good and it was just like killzones story but in a different way cause there was a drug that people took and it cost them to fight war that they thought was a good cose well if you make it you can grow on the story about how the mantle corp started out and why they wanted to start this war. This game can turn in to a big franchise that can sell well. It has the potential to be a nother terrific series on the PS3.
Sony I hope you consider to do this because most of use liked the store for the game but the game was crying out and asking you for more.

Performance and luxury feel
Reviewed By Vitold G (DANBURY, CT) Reviewed for a 2005 Subaru Legacy —5/4/2017 12:23 PM
The shocks have totally changed my legacy. It went from feeling sluggish and heavy around the turns, into a more responsive agile car. The feedback is much better as well as the control. Huge improvement. I kept adjustment in the middle and it made the drive lively, and improved comfort.
Koni strut and shocks
Reviewed By Ramir R (CAMARILLO, CA) Reviewed for a 2010 Chevy Camaro —4/26/2017 9:14 AM
One of the best that I've used so far. It is not that bumpy and hard but very competitive and aggressive on corners especially when you need the torque and horse power on winding roads. Yet, it is very comfortable on straight roads. Even when you run over a pot hole, the body doesn't hit the tires. I strongly recommend this for everyday use.

I installed these on my 2013 Mazda 3 and i thought they'll be much comfortable than the stock ones. I have 70k miles on my stock shocks. But there is not much of a difference between these and my stock ones. I kinda expected more from these.

Airlines for America said the Trump administration's proposal to privatize the nation's air traffic control system would result in shorter flights, fewer emissions and fewer delays, while the Alliance for Aviation Across America decried the measure.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Fiscal Year 2017 Work Plan carves out more than $170 million in funding that will go toward several port deepening and construction projects across the country.
U.S. and Mexican customs authorities hope to provide fully restored operations at the World Trade Bridge border crossing in Laredo, Texas, on Monday, May 29.
Registration takes less than 1 minute.
Through the first three months of 2017, however, the largest port on the U.S. East Coast has seen container throughput tick up 2.4 percent, surpassing the previous first-quarter record set in 2016, according to recent figures from the port authority.
The mid-Atlantic port handled 2.56 million tons of general cargo during the first quarter of 2017, up 5 percent year-over-year, primarily due to an increase in car and container volumes.
The transportation consulting firm will be tasked with evaluating the merits of possible round-the-clock charges or port-wide "peel-off" programs at 13 terminals in the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.

Yuqing's story
Yuqing is a 59-year-old single mother of one child. Her husband died many years ago and left her and their little son on their own. Yuqing found a job in her hometown as a toll collector, collecting parking fees. In addition, she helps her son to operate a secondhand car shop in her spare time.
Yuqing's customers are mainly passersby, and she needs to charge fees from those cross cars. Her workplace is near a school, which has many cars every day. It is not an easy job for her because she needs to maintain the public order and ensure the normal order of the parking road traffic. Sometimes she meets some people who are unsatisfied with the charges and quarrel with her. However, Yuqing solves it peacefully.
Yuqing requested ¥10,000 from MicroCred this year because her son will be married at the end of the year. She wants to decorate their house as a marriage room. This is her second loan from Microcred, and she repaid the last loan on time.
She has a dream that their family will have a better life in the future.

Now the pros for the 2009 is obviously it's low mileage and price. The pros for the 2011 is that it is newer and with the CPO it pretty much has a longer warranty (at least 2 years longer than the 2009).
I guess comparing the two, the main question is if the price difference worth it in the 2011 over the 2009? Also, are both decently priced or it could still be better?
Any opinions or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

Thomas Cushman, Esquire is the most professional, etical and caring attorney that my family and I have every met. He took care of my situation without hesitation. We were in constant communication, there were no surprises. He treated me, and my family, as if we were members of his family. I was acquitted of all charges.

Children's Knowledge of Simple Arithmetic: A Developmental Model and Simulation
- Mark H. Ashcraft
* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
This chapter is about children's mental arithmetic, the knowledge that is acquired across the school years, the early representation of that knowledge in memory, and the evolution of the mental representation and processes across childhood. The largest portion of the chapter is devoted to a model of children's knowledge and performance in a simple addition task. I propose that knowledge in the domain of arithmetic is, in principle, similar to other long-term memory knowledge, both in its representational format and in the processes used to access the knowledge. The computer simulation based on the model successfully predicts the major empirical effects found in the literature and generates new predictions about the nature of memory retrieval across the developmental span.

An AeroMexico aircraft flying from Cancun was hijacked and landed in Mexico City. All 104 passengers aboard were released by the hijackers, and local police reportedly stormed the plane and freed the crew.
Details of the hijackers are sketchy at this point, with reports ranging from a lone hijacker to three. Several sources report the hijackers are Bolivian citizens demanding to speak with Mexican president Felipe Calderon, though for unknown reasons.
Early passenger accounts of the hijacking paint the incident as remarkably low-key. One traveler said most passengers had no idea anything was amiss until the plane landed and was surrounded by police vehicles.

"A lovely cottage!"
Stayed 2 nights and found the cottage had everything you could need. Fantastic location with plenty to see. Lovely views, would love to return!
"Lovely, lovely, lovely - cannot praise too highly"
What a lovely cottage and what a lovely place to stay. We went ostensibly for the Severn Valley Railway Autumn Gala as the cottage is well placed to access Bridgnorth and the line generally, but had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay in this beautifully appointed annexe. There was everything we wanted and the whole place had been decorated and appointed to a very high standard. Our only problem was getting out of bed in the morning it was so comfortable!!! Absolutely faultless, we cannot wait to return.
"Comfortable, spacious & good quality"
Stayed for 5 nights, found the cottage very clean and comfortable with a huge bedroom & bathroom. All the equipment & bedding was good quality & everywhere was tastefully furnished. Beautiful views from every room over fields with horses. Owners were friendly and approachable (but not obtrusive) Only drawback really was that there was nowhere to eat within walking distance, but quite a few good pubs serving food within a short drive and Bridgnorth has a good selection of shops, takeaways and restaurants. Really enjoyed the stay- it was good to find self catering accommodation bookable for less than a full week - really convenient for us.
Owner's reply: thank you for your comments, i am glad you enjoyed your stay, please remember us and come again
"Fantastic cottage in a beautiful location"
Stayed here a year ago too and both times it has been brilliant. Good size place for two people to stay in, really comfy bed / sofas and everything neat, tidy and generally good quality. The surrounding countryside is beautiful (including the view out the back window of the cottage overlooking the fields full of horses), with lots to do in the nearby villages. The Six Ashes pub up the road and the Italian restaurant opposite do great food and the cider house down the lane sells proper (strong!) cider. The cottage is attached to the owners' house but you wouldn't have guessed it being inside - it's all very tranquil and you won't be bothered by anyone. Makes the perfect place to stay for a weekend away or longer, would love to come back again in the future.
Owner's reply: thanks rob, perhaps see you again, very welcome

We know this dance so well.
Now take my hand in yours,

my fragile state of mind
with your harsh steps.
Oh, but the pattern has begun.
And there's no taking back

Gawker Fires Back at Quentin Tarantino Over Lawsuit Regarding Script Leak
Gawker has reacted to Quentin Tarantino's lawsuit filed against the website after it published news about "The Hateful Eight" script leak with a link to download the early draft of the film's screenplay. The website addresses the issue in a post titled "Quentin Tarantino Sues Gawker Over Link to Script He Wants Online."
Gawker blames Tarantino for deliberately turning the leak into a story by making his complaint public in an interview. "Thanks to Tarantino's shrewd publicity strategy, the leak of 'The Hateful Eight' - and the content of the script - had been widely dissected online and was a topic of heated conversation among Defamer readers," the company states.
The website adds, "News of the fact that it existed on the internet advanced a story that Tarantino himself had launched, and our publication of the link was a routine and unremarkable component of our job: making people aware of news and information about which they are curious."
"Someone unknown to Gawker put it on a web site called AnonFiles, and someone unknown to Gawker put it on a different web site called Scribd. Last Thursday, Gawker received a tip from a reader informing us that the script was on the AnonFiles site, after which Gawker published a story reporting that the script had surfaced online," Gawker furthermore explains.
Gawker also clarifies that they are not being sued for copyright infringement. "We are being sued for contributory copyright infringement for linking to a site that is being sued for direct copyright infringement," the website explains.
Gawker additionally mentions that Deadline, which Tarantino confided in about the leaked script, "had itself obtained a copy," but Deadline insists they "did not obtain and still have not obtained The Hateful Eight." Deadline, in return, slams Gawker for "trying to let itself off the hook."
Based on a quote from Deadline in which the director said, "I do like the fact that everyone eventually posts it, gets it and reviews it on the net. Frankly, I wouldn't want it any other way. I like the fact that people like my s**t, and that they go out of their way to find it and read it," Gawker claims "Quentin Tarantino wanted The Hateful Eight to be published on the internet."
But Deadline notes that Gawker took "Tarantino completely out of context." "What the filmmaker told me was that he is not a hypocrite," Deadline's Mike Fleming Jr. says. "When he is shooting his film and sees the final draft of the script online, he in the past has not been upset and likes that people seek it out."

Lake Sorvagsvatn
Sørvágsvatn (Leitisvatn) is the biggest lake of the Faroe Islands. It is situated on the island of Vágar between the municipalities of Sørvágs Kommuna and Miðvágs kommuna. The name Sørvágsvatn means 'The lake of Sørvágur'. In size it is 3.4 km2, more than three times the size of the second biggest lake Fjallavatn, which also lies on the island of Vágar.Among the locals there can sometimes be a fierce debate regarding the name of the lake. The inhabitants of Sørvágur take pride in the fact that the lake is named after their village.
On the other hand, the inhabitants of Miðvágur want to name the lake Leitisvatn, since, on their side of the lake, the land alongside the body of water is called Leiti. 04 more images after the break...

How it works
Charge times from solar chargers are dependent on the amount of visible sun as well as the product you are charging.
EnerPlex solar products charge best in sunny conditions but will also operate in cloudy conditions. In cloudy conditions the charging rate will be slower. To maximize the charge rate, angle your solar panels so they face sun in order to receive the most direct sunlight.
Why Charge A Battery Pack Instead Of A Product Directly When Charging Via Solar
Overexposure to heat. Some products will shut down if they get too hot and it's never safe to leave your electronics exposed in sunlight and heat for long periods of time.
Cloud cover. If clouds pass by or weather changes, the charging can become interrupted. This means your phone could be plugged into your Kickr and not charging. Portable batteries such as Jumprs give you a constant charge no matter the weather conditions and will always accept a charge via solar no matter how many clouds pass over.
Transportation. It's much easier to charge your phone via a portable power pack than sitting in the sun waiting for your device to fully charge. Portable power packs let you charge anywhere.
Day vs Night. You can charge at any time while using a power pack while you can only charge via solar during the day when you have access to direct sunlight.
