Five Projects Honored by Integrity Windows & Doors
Integrity Windows & Doors has recognized six businesses involved in construction projects that have made them winners in the 2012 Integrity Red Diamond Achiever Program. With nominations submitted by Integrity dealers and distributors that supplied windows and doors for the projects, winners are selected based on outstanding design, innovation, sustainability and quality in projects using Integrity products.
"Red Diamond Achievers are absolute models of excellence," says Becky Felling, Integrity director of marketing. "We're happy to shine the spotlight on builders who reflect our values, operate responsibly, innovate constantly and deliver superior quality no matter the project."
|Bensonwood Homes' project
|Pinnacle Custom Builders' project
|Sellars Lathrop project
|Imbue/Benchmarket project
|Blue Sky Building project
Winners of the 2012 Integrity Red Diamond Achiever Program include:
- Bensonwood Homes of Walpole, N.H.
- Pinnacle Custom Builders of Cobb County, Ga.
- Sellars Lathrop Architects of Westport, Conn.
- Imbue Design & Benchmark Modern of Salt Lake City, Utah
- Blue Sky Building Company of Sunset Beach, N.C.
Bensonwood Homes is a residential design-and-build company that creates high-performing wood homes fabricated off-site. For its Elizabeth Islands Project, located on an island off Cape Cod, architect Randall S. Walter designed a family retreat that offers energy efficiency, storm protection and a popular destination for extended family. The project used Integrity's Wood Ultrex double hung, awning and picture Windows, as well as Wood Ultrex French Doors. Bensonwood Homes was nominated by Windows & Doors by Brownell and A.W. Hastings.
Pinnacle Custom Builders focuses on green building, historic restoration and custom homebuilding. Robert Soens Jr., president of Pinnacle Custom Builders, oversaw the remodeling of the Rebel Valley Project, a contemporary home in Vinings, Ga., built in 1974. The project included the addition of a new building envelope with rain-screen siding, a completely remodeled kitchen, and window and door replacement throughout the home to improve energy efficiency. Integrity's All-Ultrex casement, awning and custom polygon windows and an All-Ultrex sliding patio door were used. Pinnacle Custom Builders was nominated by Architectural Visions Inc. and Super Enterprise.
Sellars Lathrop Architects specializes in residential renovations, additions and retrofits to meet modern living standards. To accommodate a growing family, owner and architect Ann Sellars Lathrop led the renovation of Bailey Residence, a 1950s Cape Cod in Westport, Conn. The roof was raised to create larger bedrooms and bathrooms, the kitchen and dining room were flipped to increase functionality through adjacency, a garage bay was converted to a mudroom/powder room/laundry area and a new front entry was improved with the addition of a front porch. The project features Wood Ultrex Casement, Awning and Picture Windows, along with Wood Ultrex Inswing French Doors. Sellars Lathrop Architects was nominated by Woodbury Supply and A.W. Hastings.
Imbue Design and Benchmark Modern specialize in custom, modern residential projects with emphasis on deliberate living, site-specific design and responsive, functional spaces. Matt Swindel of Imbue Design and Mark Haslam of Benchmark Modern teamed up to oversee construction of The Pasture Product, a single-story home in Holladay, Utah, that features an open floor plan, concrete floors, radiant heat and floor-to-ceiling windows. The project features Integrity Wood Ultrex windows and doors, along with a 36 foot x 11 foot Marvin lift and slide door. Imbue Design and Benchmark Modern were nominated by All Purpose Windows.
Blue Sky Building Co. builds retirement, vacation and second homes in the South Brunswick Island area of North Carolina. Builder Luke Perisich led the construction of The 40th Street Project, a Sunset Beach, N.C., vacation home and private residence intended to last for generations to come. That meant construction of a home built to withstand the region's most severe weather conditions. The project includes Integrity Impact double hung windows and French doors, which are rated to withstand hurricane-force winds. Blue Sky Building was nominated by Guy C. Lee Building Materials.
WInners receive an all-expense paid trip to Warroad, Minn., for events including a roundtable discussion; a tour of the Marvin Windows & Doors factory and dinner with Susan Marvin, Marvin president. Additionally, each winner will be featured on IntegrityWindows.com with photos and information from their award-winning project submission. Winners also will receive a beautiful glass award, recognition through Integrity's social media outlets, and a $200 cash donation in the winner's name to a charity of the winner's choice.
"Good, honest business can weather nearly any storm," states Felling. "As a company with a rich tradition, we appreciate businesses like our Red Diamond Achievers who have selected Integrity products as part of their enduring commitment to quality and excellence. We couldn't be prouder knowing Integrity products have earned their trust."

'I'm not going to attack Kelly here. I'm not going to talk about the fact that his nation's sport is played predominantly in another country where most people couldn't care less about it. I will point out the irony, however. Kelly points out Buffalo's insignificance throughout his diatribe, but isn't it a bit strange he attacks the one American city where hockey — Canada's national sport — actually matters?'

Montreal to Boston 7/13 to 7/20/2013: Maasdam Cruise Review by sands28
Overall Member Rating
Montreal to Boston 7/13 to 7/20/2013
Destination: Canada & New England
Embarkation: Montreal
Travel to Port: We booked our own air flight from PHL to Montreal.
Embarkation: Embarkation was easy and extremely fast, as was disembarkation.
Stateroom: Our window cabin was 740 on A deck. It was a good size and very similar to our cabins on previous HAL cruise. Yes, as others have pointed out the bathtub was small, so that even a person 5ft 5inches had to bend his knee while in the bathtub, but that did not stop me from using it daily, to alleviate my chronic back pain!! Others have complained about the conditions of the bathtubs and stains on the rugs. In our cabin and in the hallways we saw no major or minor stains in the rugs. Our bathroom did have very minor scratches on the tub and the inner door jams of the bath room door had a few scratches. But none of these were anywhere near major issues. More
Activities: We mainly use a cruise ship as floating hotel and only went to a few shows at night, which were Broadway quality and good to excellent. We did not use the casino.
Ship information: In general, the 20 year old ship is in remarkably good shape.
Service: The service on the ship from all staff members was excellent. One concern we had stemmed from the fact that that HAL had removed trays from the Lido Restaurant. We were concerned about this before sailing, but we found that the absence of trays improved the flow of traffic in the Lido. They have created food stations, allowing you to go directly to the food you want without having to go through the whole line just to get one or two items. The only time we saw a slight line was at breakfast on departure day, but even then the delays were minimal.
Ports and Shore Excursions: All of the ports are worth a visit. We did not book our shore excursions with HAL. We did our research on the internet and enjoyed our tours. We spent extra time in Montreal before embarking and had a great time walking around and using their great subway system. Less

Gearheads, feast your eyes on the the Tufts Jumbo's Memorial Day weekend Cascade Pro7 helmet commemorating and honoring those who have and are presently serving our country in the armed forces. The Jumbos had assembled a similar tribute in 2010, but fans were initially caught slightly off guard unsure of the scheme and message that the Jumbos were sending with their new gear.
In 2011 everyone who watches the DIII Championship game Sunday at 7pm at M&T Bank Stadium (also streamed on NCAA.com) will be well aware of the message and tribute that the Jumbos are embodying. This years Memorial Day/Stars and Stripes inspired helmet decals are a little more aggressive than the previous year as Zima Gear put together an eye popping look. Tufts coach Mike Daly had this to say about the look of the helmets,"Last year we just went with the flags on the helmets. The year's layout was in the hands of assistant coaches Brett Holm and Chris Carr as they worked with Zima Gear — we couldn't be happier with the way it turned out."
At first glance at all the Tufts Jumbos gear you can tell that coach Daly loves to show appreciation for the troops and the men and women serving our country as nearly every piece of equipment and apparel has the American flag on it. The whole message embodies the mentality of putting yourself before others for the great good of the whole. With it being Memorial Day weekend and everything that is going on it's perfectly fitting.
Coach Daly says, "We are really focused on Memorial Day Weekend and the veterans and current men and women of service. This is our small way of showing that and recognizing it it's something that we are proud of. Our athletic trainer Mark Doughtie is a decorated army veteran being awarded the bronze star for his service and bravery. We've got two current alums overseas, one in Iraq and the other in special forces stationed out in the pacific. As well as a host of other family, friends and supporters including my brother in law who is in the Marine reserves and Senator Scott Brown who is a Tufts alum is in the National Guard — so this really means a lot to us. We are very aware of the opportunities that we have been provided by these great men and women a thank you to those guys and I think this is a simple thing for us to do."
After speaking with Dowdy, he pointed out that he gets a sense that the Tufts team understands and recognizes that there are men and women who are their own ages over seas fighting in war battling our countries battles. It's that recognition that helps us to understand our amazing freedoms and realize how lucky we are to gather at M&T Bank stadium all weekend long to watch games and appreciate the opportunities we have in front of us.
Below, check out the Tufts Jumbos 2011 Championship Cascade Pro7 helmets.
A breakthrough in high performance impact attenuation. 7 years in development, the linchpin to this lid is the patented SevenTechnology liner. Cascade introduced EPP liners to lacrosse in 1989 and every lacrosse helmet has featured it since, it's time for another evolution. Add in the SuperMono Shell & ProFit system and you have the most advanced helmet lacrosse has ever seen. Yet, another disruptive technology brought to you by the masterminds at Cascade Sports. Mask available in Tungsten, Chromanium or Gold Chromanium. One size fits most.
Zima Gear is a custom sportswear company that produces uniforms and specialty items such as custom helmet wraps. We're all about customer service. We try to help cater to people with every price point with our team wraps as low as $18.00 per helmet. You can visit their website be going here or visit their facebook page here.

I sure dropped the ball on these AlphBeasts during all the holiday madness, but I'm going to do my best to catch up in the next couple of weeks.
Getting back into monster drawing makes me realize what a stress killer this thing is for me. It's like I'm 15 again and I'm staying up all night to draw monsters, Watch MST3K, and eat Ramen noodles.
Instead of being 31, on the computer, and drinking booze (I'll let you decide which one is less pathetic). Anyway…
Monopods (also sciapods, skiapods, skiapodes, Monocoli) are mythological dwarf-like creatures with a single, large foot extending from one thick leg centered in the middle of their body.
The horizontal drawings always show up too tiny. Click on him and…. EMBIGGEN THE MONOPOD!

Sellers on the News
This past Friday the Labor Department released the nonfarm payroll report for March. Over the course of that day, I received feedback questioning whether the report could be categorized as "good news." For me, that is exactly what was detailed in Friday's jobs report – good news. Let's keep in mind that the objective over the past month, and in the coming weeks, is to determine "how deep are the potholes?" from this past winter's weather. This report is consistent with other recently reported economic news, such as ISM manufacturing, to suggest those potholes can be quickly repaired and are not too deep.
First, let's take a look at Friday's nonfarm payroll report…
- All of the job gains in March came from the private sector
- March nonfarm payrolls +192,000
- March private payrolls +192,000
- Positive revisions were reported for February's labor report
- February nonfarm payrolls were revised to +197,000 from +175,000
- February private payrolls were revised to +188,000 from +162,000
- The labor force participation rate rose to 63.2% from 63.0% as 476,000 Americans re-entered the work force. I have long suspected that eventually those frustrated by an absence of jobs over the past few years would return to the workforce as optimism about the economy rose.
- The labor force participation rate (Figure 1) was 62.8% in December; a possible positive trend is developing based on the 0.4% rise since December
- The employment-population ratio (Figure 2) rose to 58.9%, the highest level since August 2009
- Average weekly hours worked rose to 34.5 from 34.2 last month
- Average hourly earnings year on year fell from +2.2% to +2.1%
- Average hourly earnings month on month were flat after last month's +0.4%
- Workers unable to find jobs in March due to weather were 148,000, slightly above the historical March average of 140,000
- Workers unable to find jobs in February due to weather were 601,000, well above the historical February average of 317,000
- Retail employment reversed two months of weather-related losses, rising +21,000

Figure 2: U.S Employment Population Ratio, March 2008 to March 2014
Source: Bloomberg
If the labor report can be viewed as such a positive, then why did the market reverse its early gains and the S&P 500® Index (SPX) close down 1.25%? Unfortunately, the economic news and price action is consistent with what I expect from April. It will be a "sell on good news" month, as the potential for a second quarter correction for the SPX rises. I expect Q2 to be challenging for the SPX to continue its appreciation path. Price and earnings will have a high probability to reset expectations at a lower level, setting up late Q3 as a period in which bullish forces can resume the uptrend.
Momentum equities, in particular, with very rich valuations and high growth expectations are being aggressively sold, counter to their position of being the equities of choice during 2012-13. That shall continue as the better economic news supports further tapering and an earlier interest rate hike. Both of those conditions will impede the appreciation path for momentum equities with rich valuations and very high growth expectations. Expectations must reset lower, and investors should resist any charge to catch these falling knives.
The week ahead begins the upcoming SPX earnings season. Expect CEOs and CFOs to provide overall disappointing guidance, resetting expectations lower for the back end of 2014. Weather will absolute be utilized as an excuse, whether valid or not.
Eight SPX companies (Figure 3) will report, beginning with Alcoa (AA) on Tuesday. More importantly, on Friday investors will hear from JP Morgan Chase (JPM) and Wells Fargo (WFC).
Lastly, let's keep our eyes on what develops in Japan with the looming consumption tax rise and Bank of Japan response. The highly levered Japanese yen (Figure 4) will be an incredibly important indicator for investors to watch over the next few weeks.

American Jewish Fiction Turns Inward
American Jewish Committee (AJC), 1991
This essay examines recent fiction which draws on Jewish resources and/or deals with Jewish themes. Special attention is devoted to stories and novels that focus on Jewish religious or spiritual issues. The essay begins with a brief documentation of the broad scope of renewed interest in Jewish topics on the American Jewish literary scene; then it proceeds to an analysis of spiritual American Jewish fiction through a close look at several significant works. Finally, the essay explores possible reasons for the receptivity of reading audiences to particularistic Jewish fiction and suggests potential directions of such literature in the near future.

When you share notebooks online, OneNote keeps them automatically synchronized and up-to-date. There may be times when you want or need to sync changes manually, though. For example, when you've made a lot of changes to a shared notebook and you want to make sure they've been uploaded to OneDrive or SharePoint before you shut down your computer.
To check sync status and sync manually, if necessary, do the following:
In any shared notebook, click File > Info > View Sync Status.
In the Shared Notebook Synchronization dialog box, examine the shared notebooks you're currently connected to.
If a notebook appears out of sync, you can click Sync Now or Sync All to quickly upload your latest changes. Syncing also downloads any changes that other, authorized users may have made to the shared notebook since your last update.
If you're having issues getting your notebooks to sync, you can troubleshoot sync errors.

We kept getting excellent trade value for them so we have stuck with the brand. OTOH, I had a number of minor issues with Toyota and Chevy. Those problems usually resulted in the cars still being driveable, but required wasting valuable time and effort to get them repaired even when still under warranty.
It's really just a crap shoot I suppose. In my book, MINI has come up winners each time for us.
MINI less reliable than Porsche, Jaguar and Chrysler? I question whatever source you're citing.
So you are basing your stellar reliability claim on cars that are approx. two years old and less than 40,000 miles?
Check out the April, 2012 issue of Consumer Reports, auto edition. Mini is ranked as one of worst used car picks, most problematic...
Here is the latest Consumer Reports data:
Used Cars, Problems per 100 cars
2007 Mini Cooper S (Year 1: 9 problems, Year 5: 113 problems). CR's conclusion is this car is aging badly.
Worst of the worst for reliability, "much worse than average reliability among 2002-2011 models"
"Used cars to avoid"
Mini Cooper Hatchback S, 03, 05-09
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, is the reliability data from 2006 to 2011.
Mini Cooper Hatchback S
Engine Major: 2006 "better/good"; 2007-2009 "much worse than avg", 2010 "better than average" and 2011 "better/good"
There seems to be a similar trend in most categories, , i.e. marked improvement in reliability starting in 2010, with below average reliability for 2007-2009, except for fuel system, which is "much worse than avg" from 2007 through 2011.

#1: Suse
It's 1am at the launch of a queer feminist zine called Lock Up Your Daughters and I'm starting to get bored, so I lean over to my friend Paul, who has tattoos all down his arms of cherry blossoms and tea-cups, and I say I like that girl. He peers around me at the girl with an emo-boy haircut and big hips in skinny jeans, and he says I know that girl. He introduces me: her name is Suse and she used to DJ at Paul's club night. After we've been talking for a while we go outside for a cigarette. It's August, summer is turning, and I'm cold in my sleeveless dress; Suse sees my goosebumped arms and stands closer. We discuss why there are still lights on in the building next door at 1.30am on a Tuesday: she says illegal poker den, I say all-night bakery. I realise that our guesses are what we want the building to be. My wish comes closer to being true than hers, because when we go back inside plates of buttered toast are being passed around. We eat some, and we talk some more, and then we leave.
A few days later, I go to Berlin with my brother. When I get off the plane I have a text message from Suse: I'm going to Berlin for a few days, do you want to go out for a drink when I get back to Glasgow? The thought crosses my mind that she is stalking me across Western Europe, but I decide that she's hot and I don't care. The next evening she arrives in Berlin, and we meet at a dance club on a boat. At 2.30am I leave with my brother to get the train back to the apartment we're renting. Suse leans in to kiss me, sees my brother, and hugs me instead.
Back in Glasgow, we go to a fancy dress party dressed as a lumberjack and Marla from Fight Club. I drink a bottle of red wine and have a long and rambling conversation with a stranger about our top three serial killers. His: Gacy, Bundy, Dahmer; mine: Ramirez, Gein, Fish. Later Suse and I go outside onto the balcony to lean over the railing and spit on the cars eight floors down. We're too drunk to see if we hit them, so we climb over the railing onto next door's balcony. We curl up on their couch and talk shit and laugh and kiss and she puts her hands up my dress and fucks me in the dark with the wind numbing and the music throbbing and the traffic and the city lights and other people's cigarette smoke and just for that moment we're the only people in the whole world.
#2: Suz
It's early on a Wednesday morning it's before midday, at least, which feels early when you've only slept three hours because Suse was wasted and got up a dozen times in the night to puke and I'm meant to be teaching a writing class. I'm a decade younger than everyone else in the room and I'm shit-scared that they're going to laugh in my face. Everyone is settled in with their notebooks and black coffee in plastic take-away cups, and I open my mouth to introduce myself. There is a clatter, a chaos, and a girl about my age stumbles into the room with a laptop in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other. She has red-orange-yellow hair and a ring through her nostril. Sorry sorry sorry she says, mostly to herself, and falls into a chair.
The class goes well, and no-one laughs out loud at me. The girl who stumbles in late Suz, it says on her notebook, and this makes me think of Suse, probably still in bed with her hangover, and I don't know whether I want to smile or cry when I think about that stays behind to ask me questions about writing. I don't know the answers, but I try to bullshit as I steer her towards the door. I fooled everyone for the class, but I know I can't keep it up for much longer. I burble something about first drafts always being shit and getting inside your character's brain and omniscient narration, then close the door behind her.
A few days later I log onto a gay dating website called GaydarGirls and get a message from Suz. I saw your profile, she says, and I recognised you from that writing class. We meet up for a drink, sitting on a wall outside the pub so that we can smoke. It's October, and the wind numbs the fingers on my wine glass. She talks too fast for me to follow so I just drink and smoke and listen to her, though she mostly tells me about her Abnormal Psych PhD and I don't understand almost everything she says.
Later we go to a gay club that plays dance remixes of everything Mariah Carey ever recorded. The boys dry-hump the railings around the dance-floor, and the girls are boys but not in a sexy androgynous way, just in the way that they have shaved heads and no tits. We down cheap shots and make out in the toilets; Suz kisses like she's trying to choke me with her tongue.
#3: Susie
It's early evening, just after classes have finished, and I'm standing outside the Subway station waiting for Suz. I forgot my glasses and every face is a blur. I wish I'd asked her to put a flower in her buttonhole so I could know her by the bright colour of it, but we're not quite postmodern enough for that. Through a break in the people-traffic I see her: burn-red hair and a scowl that makes something in me yawn and shrivel. It's the shortest night of the year but it seems to last forever, and at 11pm I say I'm going to the toilet but go for the door instead.
I go round to my friend Susie's, my steps slow and flat-footed because of the December frost crusting the pavements. She makes me tea and toast and listens to me talk. She crosses her legs so that her ankle rests on my knee; I reach down and rub her toes. We go to bed and she kisses me slowly, sucks my tongue, bites my lip, then grinds her cunt against my thigh until my leg muscles spasm. I fall asleep then wake at 6AM by period cramps that feel like being stabbed. Susie gives me codeine and I lie on my back and mewl while she strokes my stomach.
She leaves at 8AM to go to her graphic design job, and I settle in for a day in her bed. At 10AM a man knocks on the door to read the gas meter. The only item of clothing I have is the silver sequinned minidress I'd worn the night before. He frowns at my tattooed wrists and Robert Smith morning-hair while I mumble this isn't my flat.
I get up, make coffee, and sip it while I go around Susie's flat and look in all her drawers. I find no locks and no secrets. I shower, leave hairdye stains on her towels, put a book I think she'll like on her bedside table, then go to meet her to give her house keys back. Keep them, she says, and kisses me.

What's up everyone. Got a questio . I have 2011 wrx and just got 2 new tires on front. Back tires have 7/32 tread left. When I punch it say 3,4and 5th gear my rpm go up real high then drop back down when it equals out. Never had this problem before I got 2 new tires. Any help why?
You can't buy only 2 tires for an AWD vehicle in most cases. Whoever you bought your tires from should've informed you of that...although most places could care less about customer service. There has to be less than 3/32nd from one axle to another. Time to fork over the $$ for 2 more my friend. Do it ASAP as well before you cause irreversible damage. DO NOT drive aggressively until you do so man.
[color=gray]Sent from [url=http://www.autoguide.com/mobile]AutoGuide.com App[/url][/color]
Yeah...what Brandon said and make sure to buy the same tires. You're causing a grip mismatch on the differentials of the car. The VDC and Traction Control are going to end up hating what you're doing to the car.

Eating broccoli sprouts may be an effective way to control the germ that causes most peptic ulcers and is strongly associated with stomach cancer, a small study has found. In the study, published in the April issue of Cancer Prevention Research, researchers examined 50 people who were infected with the germ, Helicobacter pylori, and divided them into two groups. Over eight weeks, one group ate two and a half ounces of broccoli sprouts a day while the other consumed an equal amount of alfalfa sprouts.

text: I was thinking, that I tend to care too much about the little things. I wrote an article (offline now) some time ago about them being important to notice and care about. But I meant them in LIFE . Like a butterfly or or a shooting star stuff like that. Now I mean financially. Example case is buying a certain item in a webshop. You can possibly find out that item is available elsewhere in a different setup, price, shipping fees and whatnot. I like to go around everything and double check that the shop I chose is the best. This is good but one shouldn't overdo it. Places offer discount but don't trick the system too much. Possibly spending time to find the absolutely cheapest solution takes too much time! Maybe the slightly more expensive can bring certain perks like super fast shipping or very kind support, or anything else like gifts, coupon for the next purchase etc. I don't mean to teach impulsiveness, this is not about that. But I realized that this is the case for every stock market, everything is so worth it (if you actually need an item), there is not much thinking about how this could be cheaper or free. I see a LOT of my sales not using the prepaid -$2 option. It's so little most of the people don't care but it can mean some for us, since it increases our earnings Just thinking loudly.

Contingency theory, with regard to risk of homeland security incidents and homeland security preparedness, has received considerable empirical support. In past research, risk has been measured subjectively as agency executives' perceived risk of specific homeland security incidents occurring within their jurisdictions. This study examines actual risk, using the objective risk factors of experience with past natural hazards, social vulnerability, and urbanization. These risk factors, used in combination, have been significantly associated with terrorism-related homeland security incidents in the United States, and are used in risk assessment models of natural hazards. Contrary to expectations, the results of this study indicate that objective risk factors were not associated with either perceived risk or preparedness. Policy implications and directions for future research are discussed.

Loch Lomond, Scotland, July 15 (UNI) Shiv Kapur (69) was the only Indian left in the fray as both Jyoti Randhawa (77) and Jeev Milkha Singh (72) shockingly failed to make the cut after the second round of the 2.4 million pound Scottish Open here.
Shiv, who started at the tied 81st spot following a disappointing one-over 72 in the first round, improved to the tied 55th position after firing a brace of birdies on the 12th and 13th to just about make it to the next round with a two-day total of one-under 141.
The biggest disappointment of the day was Jyoti Randhawa, who had a solid start to his campaign at the tied ninth spot but a horrendous perfromance -- which saw him hit only one birdie against five bogeys and a double-bogey -- threw him out of contention at the event.
Randhawa finished with a two-day total of six-over 145 after he dropped six shots in the space of four holes in his back-nine, which ended his hopes of making any sort of recovery following two previous bogeys in his front nine.
Meanwhile, it was heartbreak for Jeev, who failed to make it by a single shot. The 10th tee starter was off to a disastrous start as he dropped two successive shots on the opening two holes. Two more bogeys on the 13th and 15th meant the solitary birdie sandwiched in between hardly made any difference as he stood three-over at the halfway mark.
The seasoned pro -- determined to make up for the poor show -- didn't start any better in his other nine and hit a bogey on the first. He, however, got his act together to fire three birdies after that but the damage had been done by then as he failed to make it to the next round.
At the top of the leaderboard, Northern Ireland's Darren Clarke (131) produced a marvellous second round of six-under 65 to move into a three stroke lead.
He displayed all of his class as he conjured seven birdies and just single dropped shot on a day of perfect conditions at Loch Lomond.
Sweden's Johan Edfors, Ireland's Damien McGrane and South Africa's Charl Schwartzel lead the chasing pack behind Clarke on eight under, with Welshman Jamie Donaldson and Scotland's David Drysdale on seven under.

School of Medicine Homepage Refresh
The School of Medicine homepage has a new look, but this design refresh isn't skin deep. It showcases new functional enhancements that are soon to be available to all School of Medicine sites.
- Image Slider
Using the latest web technologies and standards, we can now offer rich image carousels that don't require the Flash plugin. Not only do such carousels work on iPhones and iPads, but they can contain text captions and links that are more accessible than ever before.
- New look for fixed right column portlets
The portlets that you're used to have been brought into the main page area for greater layout flexibility.
- Content Well Portlets
As the name suggests, these are portlets that are designed to work in the main content area—a major new feature! Not only do they allow you to have dynamically updated content (i.e. from a Collection, News, Events, or even an RSS feed), but they can be positioned alongside each other, above and/or below the normal content. Used with or without the 3rd column portlets, they can be arranged to create just about any layout you can imagine!
- Quick Links
We've been listening! Links to more commonly-sought resources, such as Webmail and the Health Sciences Library, can now be found on the School of Medicine homepage.
Currently, these new features are only available to the main School of Medicine website (www.med.unc.edu). Contact us if you have interest for your site, and we'll let you know when they become available. Questions/comments? Please send us your feedback at email@example.com.

Click any word in a definition or example to find the entry for that word
to read electronic books and documents by using a portable device
'I would like to keep a log about my trip, download and sort pictures from my camera, and e-read during the trip. Any suggestions what computer equipment best covers these options?'All Things Digital 20th November 2012
'During 2012, a raft of new e-readers and tablets made their appearance, all promising to be the acme of the portable library.'The Register 6th December 2012
'I did find articles saying that even avid e-readers prefer real books for their young children, although the primary reason for this may be that few people want their expensive Nook or Kindle … to be kicked down the stairs by a four-year-old on a sugar high.'Allison's Book Bag (blog) 7th November 2012
Even if you don't have one yourself, it's likely that most people reading this article will at least know someone who owns and enjoys using an e-book reader. In the space of about two years, this portable device allowing users to download and read books in electronic form has made the leap from novel gift idea to run-of-the-mill kit – so much so that the process of using one now has its very own linguistic embodiment in the form of a new verb: to e-read.
with handy features like modifiable print size and … the capacity to store the equivalent of many books on one, light-weight, hand-held device, it's not difficult to see why e-readers have become so popular
Although in principle any device that can display text on a screen can be used to read books electronically, the expression e-book reader or now, much more commonly, e-reader, is reserved for a specially designed device which optimizes battery life, portability and screen clarity for the purposes of reading. Looking quite similar to a tablet computer, an e-reader has a screen which can be refreshed regularly and very quickly, and displays text using a technology which is designed to mimic the appearance of ordinary ink on paper, often referred to as electronic ink/paper. Though usually only black/grey on white, one of the main advantages of e-reader text is its clarity, even in bright sunlight. With handy features like modifiable print size and, most importantly, the capacity to store the equivalent of many books on one, light-weight, hand-held device, it's not difficult to see why e-readers have become so popular. Gradually, it seems, more and more people are becoming convinced that their advantages outweigh the aesthetic and tactile attraction of real, paper books, and a linguistic by-product of this trend is the use of e-read as a verb, both transitively (e.g. He's e-reading that new novel by J. K. Rowling.) and intransitively, as illustrated in the citation above.
Following the model of the word read, which in addition to its verb use occurs as a noun to refer to a book that is really enjoyable/exciting, etc (e.g. His latest novel was a really good read.), the verb e-read has a nominal counterpart, with evidence for examples such as Best e-reads for November/in 2010/on green living …). The form e-reader, though primarily a reference to the device itself, is also sometimes now used to describe a person who regularly reads electronic books.
The use of e-read as a verb has emerged in the last year or so, and is of course a by-product of popular use of the noun e-reader, a term which itself only began to appear regularly a couple of years earlier and was galvanized considerably by the launch of the Kindle e-book reader by online retailer Amazon in 2007.
Use of the verb e-read as a derivation from the noun e-reader could be considered a new example of a word formation process linguists refer to as back formation, in which a shorter word is formed from a longer word that already exists in the language. This occurs by deletion of a kind of 'imagined' affix, inspired by observing examples where conventional word formation has taken place. So, for instance, an established example of back formation is the verb edit, which was derived from the noun editor by analogy with act and actor, even though in the latter case, the verb act existed before the noun actor.

June 19-25 is Knoxville Area Transit's Try Transit Week. With free Wi-Fi now on all Knoxville Area Transit (KAT) buses, a brand new website, and a new text messaging feature for passenger information, there's never been a better time to use transit in Knoxville. Try Transit Week provides a great opportunity to do just that by providing opportunities to learn about it, try it with friends and neighbors, and ride for free. Participate in any or all of these events and learn about the benefits of riding transit!
May is a month when we encourage everyone to rediscover the sheer, simple joys that come from riding bicycles! Bike Month motivates new riders and inspires experienced bicyclists, so take a minute to consider how you'll arrive. Log your trip with Smart Trips via our website or app (available for Android and Apple users). Logging trips at least 4 times a month gives you a chance to win one of our quarterly prizes!
In 2017, Smart Trips is making a big change. Beginning January 1, 2017, any green commute you make counts! There are many potential members who tell us they would love to join our program, but are unable to make alternative workplace commutes for a variety of reasons. Whether it's because of picking up children, no access to the bus line, or distance to the office, we know that workplace commutes are only one of the many trips that can be green. Starting in 2017, we're encouraging our members to make every trip a smart trip.
Our mobile app, Smart Trips Rideshare, is now available for both Android and Apple.
You are cordially invited to the Smart Trips annual Commuter Challenge Awards Ceremony! We've been tallying up your green commutes all year, and it's time to say thank you for all that you've done to keep our area greener. Join us as we announce the top 5 Smart Trips employers for 2016, and give out individual awards to our members who have made and logged their alternative work trips all year long. We are celebrating this year from 5-7 p.m. on Nov. 15at Barley's in the Old City, located at 200 E. Jackson Ave. There will be lots of great food, a cash bar, and a chance to meet some of your fellow Smart Trippers. We hope to see all of you there! Please RSVP by Nov. 10 at 215-2916 or email@example.com.
At Smart Trips, we spend most of our time talking about the program as it applies to workplace commutes. What you may not know is that the program also applies to college and university students. We know that for many full-time students, school is their job, and we want to make sure they're getting credit for their green commutes and making great habits in the process. While Smart Trips works in an eight county region, our student participation mostly comes from the University of Tennessee, Pellissippi State Community College, and Maryville College. Each of the schools has its own identity, which helps shape the way its students and staff interact with Smart Trips.
Our friends at Knoxville Area Transit (KAT) celebrated Try Transit Week from July 11-16. It was a full week with KAT's scheduled activities, including lunch with Mayor Rogero, a ribbon cutting ceremony at the new East Superstop on Kirkwood Street, neighborhood group rides to the Saturday Market Square Famers' Market, and more. Each day's event targeted different groups, but one common message throughout the week was the promotion of their new Google trip planning system that allows riders to find a route based on location, departure and arrival times, and other options.
As of July 1, 2016, several changes related to garage and street parking took effect in certain parts of Knoxville. With a focus on downtown and Fort Sanders, the City and Public Building Authority (PBA) are increasing enforcement, adjusting rates, and installing new meters. With all of this, monthly parking fees for garage parking will see a slight increase, most meters will have slightly higher fees and now include Saturdays, and there will be more officers to police these changes.
The University of Tennessee, Knoxville has found another way to "make orange green," as the slogan of their sustainability campaign commands. In September, they became a Bronze Level Smart Trips sponsor.
Since the early days of the Smart Trips program, UT has been a source of support and participation. Students, faculty, and staff have logged thousands of clean commutes.
Because of the university's dense, urban campus, those trips range in mode from carpool and transit to biking, walking, and more.
Why did UT decide to take the next step towards sustainable transportation on campus?
August 21, 2015
On Sunday, Oct. 25, Knoxvillians are invited to walk, bike, jog or dance their way through town at the first ever Open Streets Knoxville event.
A 1-mile stretch of Central Street, connecting Happy Holler to Emory Place and the Old City, will be closed to all motorized traffic, allowing revelers a day of shopping, playing, exercising and socializing all on foot or two wheels.
Learn more about Open Streets!
Local community college, Pellissippi State, has an excellent reputation. Professors, advisors, and administrators are known for their hands-on mentorship of each student enrolled. Smart Trips staff say this dynamic is evident on campus.
"The first time I was invited to speak at their orientation, it was clear they're more like a family than a school," says Outreach Coordinator Sara Martin. "I've since visited three of their campuses and it's the same across the board – Pellissippi State takes care of their students."
Read more about this sponsor.
On Thursday, November 20, Smart Trips welcomed the winners of this year's Commuter Challenge to The Southern Depot for a celebration of green commutes! Dana Bryson took home the individual grand prize of a $1,500 vacation package from AAA Travel. And Rush's Music won First Place in the business challenge. See more winners >>

(6/29/2006) New Haven was the first Northeast city to promote hybrid and alternative fuel vehicles by allowing free on-street parking in a program that expires on June 30.
The City granted more than 100 permits to hybrid car owners over the year. Now, the Board of Aldermen�s Municipal Services Committee has approved a three year extension of the program based on its initial success.
Mayor John DeStefano, Jr. has championed the use of alternative fuel measures and said the City gains by encouraging more people to own hybrid cars. �The City of New Haven is committed to improving our air quality by encouraging hybrid vehicles and promoting the use of fuel efficient-technology,� he said.
The City's use of Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel and particulate traps on its school buses reduce asthma-causing pollution by 50-90% - reductions similar to those achieved by converting to hybrids in passenger vehicles. The City is in the process of converting its passenger fleet to hybrid vehicles on the belief that the use of fuel-efficient technology is a small, but significant way of addressing air quality, fuel dependency and ecological problems.

I told you earlier this week about the Authors Gala that SFWA will be hosting at Mad City Coffee in Columbia, Maryland tomorrow night from 7:00-9:00 p.m.—but just in case that didn't convince you to attend, here's an updated flier with even more photos of the authors who'll be taking part.
Now that you know what we all look like, I'm sure you'll try real hard to be there. You wouldn't want to be the one responsible for making those faces sad, would you?

[WORLD CUP: Off the Post] Gary Lewin, the man charged with keeping England's players fit, has been sidelined for the rest of the World Cup after dislocating his ankle while celebrating England's goal in the 2-1 loss to Italy.
The 50-year-old Lewin jumped off the bench, after Daniel Sturridge scored a 37th minute
momentary equalizer, and had a bad fall. The game was delayed for a few minutes until Lewin was stretchered off.
"That's a very sad moment for us," said England coach Roy
Hodgson. "In celebrating the goal he jumped up and landed on a water bottle and dislocated his ankle. Very, very painful. He's been taken to hospital. I think the doctor was able to set it in
and put it back at the side of the field. It's the end of the World Cup I'm afraid for Gary Lewin. A very sad moment for him and the team."
Lewin is being replaced by Steve Kemp, who had
been assisting Lewin.
Lewin is famous for life-saving treatment on John Terry after he swallowed his tongue in a 2007 clash with Abou Diaby in an English
Premier League game.

Steve Nash had 18 points and 10 assists as the Phoenix Suns spoiled the coaching debut of Tyrone Corbin with a 95-83 victory over the Utah Jazz on Friday night. Hakim Warrick had 16 points while Marcin Gortat added 12 points and 10 rebounds for Phoenix (26-25), which has won three in row, six of its last seven and the last four meetings with Utah.
The Jazz (31-24) began a new era as coach Jerry Sloan resigned Thursday after 23 years with the team. Corbin's team seemed excited early in taking a 9-0 lead. The Jazz led by as many as 15 in the first half, but the Suns rallied in the third, outscoring the opposition 27-13. The Suns boosted the lead in the fourth as the Jazz missed eight of nine at one point.
Robin Lopez had 14 points and six rebounds as Phoenix limited Utah to 27 second-half points.
Deron Williams had 16 points, 14 assists and eight rebounds for Utah, which suffered its fourth consecutive home loss. C.J. Miles had 19 points and Paul Millsap scored 16.

Lady Gaga's Harajuku Adventure
Stepping out to explore the big city, Lady Gaga was spotted out taking some time for herself while in Tokyo for her tour on Monday (May 14).
The pop superstar looked a little less eccentric than normal as she wore an all-black ensemble that included sunglasses, a midriff-bearing top and a knee length skirt while being escorted through Tokyo's fashionable Takeshita-Dori in Harajuku.
The 26-year-old seems to be enjoying her time in Japan as she tweeted, "Tonight was happiness, joy, gratitude. I'm the lucky one Japan. You are so special."
The Mother Monster has also been keeping her whopping 24 million-plus Twitter followers up to date with all of her exciting activities as she has posted many pictures from photographer Terry Richardson, which has shown not only behind-the-scenes shots, but also a glimpse of the insanely large crowd in attendance for her show.
However, one of Richardson's photos in particular has been making quite the commotion. As previously reported by GossipCenter, Gaga sparked engagement rumors after the celeb photographer posted a photo of the singer yesterday showing off new bling with a caption reading, "Gaga showing off her new engagement ring!"
So far there has been no confirmation that a wedding is in the future and one source close to the songstress even denied the news.
Enjoy the pictures of Lady Gaga on tour in Tokyo, Japan (May 14).

Fuzzle - Bunny Kitty Crochet Pattern
When a bunny and a kitty love each other very much, they have a Fuzzle!
Beautiful designed doll. This is not the actual doll: it's a crochet pattern to make her yourself. The designer used 4 ply acrylic yarn and a 3.00 mm crochet hook.
Super cute crochet cat. Comes in 3 sizes and various colours. I think I want them all :)
Custom made cuteness!
This makes me laugh! I don't have a cat, but if I did I would so make one of these...
I have to admit I made these and the are available on http://www.unatuna.etsy.com They are the perfect Halloween accessory or just plain cute to wear everyday!

The M14 7.62 was the last American battle rifle to be fielded, replaced by the AR assault rifle platform. But, interestingly, the M14 has been brought into active duty via its use with special forces and snipers. Here is an excellent old Army training movie. I worked on enhancing the audio and video tonality a bit:
