55% of Small Business Owners Wouldn't Start Their Enterprise Today
posted at 3:41 am on October 1, 2012 by Matt Vespa
John Gehrke on The Washington Examiner wrote an interesting column September 26 reporting that 55% of small business owners would not have started their respective businesses today because of Obama's policies. Furthermore, "a new poll… also reports 69 percent say President Obama's regulatory policies have hurt their businesses."
The have a point. Obama added $9.5 billion in red tape in the month of July alone. Furthermore, Penny Starr at CNS News reported back on September 10 that "the Code of Federal Regulations has increased by 11,327 pages – a 7.4 percent increase from Jan. 1, 2009 to Dec. 31, 2011. In 2009, the increase in the number of pages was the most over the last decade – 3.4 percent or 5,359 pages. Over the past decade, the federal government has issued almost 38,000 new final rules, according to the draft of the 2011 annual report to Congress on federal regulations by the Office of Management and Budget. That brought the total at the end of 2011 to 169,301 pages."
Gehrke also quoted, Jay Timmons, the president of the National Association of Manufacturers, "which commissioned the poll along with the National Federation of Independent Businesses," as saying:
'There is far too much uncertainty, too many burdensome regulations and too few policymakers willing to put aside their egos and fulfill their responsibilities to the American people…to fix this problem, we need immediate action on pro-growth tax and regulatory policies that put manufacturers in the United States in a position to compete and succeed in an ever-more competitive global economy.'
The poll reports another ominous statistic for job creation: '67 percent say there is too much uncertainty in the market today to expand, grow or hire new workers.' Why? Because "President Obama's Executive Branch and regulatory policies have hurt American small businesses and manufacturers,' according to 69 percent of the business owners surveyed.
Here are the key findings in the poll, as highlighted by NAM:
- 67 percent say there is too much uncertainty in the market today to expand, grow or hire new workers.
- 69 percent of small business owners and manufacturers say President Obama's Executive Branch and regulatory policies have hurt American small businesses and manufacturers.
- 55 percent say they would not start a business today given what they know now and in the current environment.
- 54 percent say other countries like China and India are more supportive of their small businesses and manufacturers than the United States.
Is this moving 'forward?'

Mexico's new president, opposition agree to push reforms
By Staff Writer On December 3, 2012 @ 5:07 am In World
MEXICO CITY, (Reuters) – Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto on Sunday signed a pact with the country's leading political parties to increase competition in the telecommunications sector and overhaul the education system.
The agreement was an effort to break through years of political gridlock in Congress on Pena Nieto's second day in office.
Pena Nieto, 46, took office on Saturday, returning to power his centrist Institutional Revolutionary Party, or PRI, after 12 years in the opposition. No party holds an outright majority in Congress.
"We have to negotiate to build consensus. Now is the decisive hour in the history of the country that demands politicians use common ground to reach essential agreements," Pena Nieto said at an event in the historic Chapultepec castle.
Former President Felipe Calderon's National Action Party, or PAN, kicked the PRI out of office in 2000, pledging to reinvigorate Mexico, but it struggled to broker major accords during the 12 years it held the presidency.
Pena Nieto has promised to back some of the same economic proposals that his PRI party fought while it was in the opposition.
PAN chairman Gustavo Madero signed the agreement along with the chairman of the leftist Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD), Jesus Zambrano.
The deal did not mention the closely watched tax and energy plans that Pena Nieto's collaborators have said he will propose during his first year in office.
Parties agreed to work on three reforms: to increase competition in Mexico's telecommunications sector, improve the management of local government finances, and modernize the education system.
Mexico's phone market is dominated by billionaire Carlos Slim's companies, while the television business is largely controlled by broadcaster Televisa. Pena Nieto, who is married to a star of one of Televisa's popular soap operas, is seen as close to the broadcaster's owners.

My monthly round-up of films I've been watching.
1. Silk
It's not often I turn a movie off because it's so dreadful, but I did with this one. I rented it on the basis of seeing a trailer which looked great – how wrong it was! It's about a silkworm merchant in 19th century France, who travels to Japan and becomes obsessed with a concubine. But it just seemed to be endless 'meaningful looks' and background music, and no substance. Dreadful.
2. Johnny English Reborn
I took William to the cinema to see this, and despite thinking it wouldn't be my cup of tea particularly, found myself laughing out loud and really enjoying it. Very funny indeed.
3. Love & Other Drugs
That Anne Hathaway is a bit ubiquitous at the moment, isn't she? Don't quite know why this movie was billed as a romcom, as it deals with some pretty heavy issues (early onset Parkinsons and taking on (or not) a relationship with somebody whose prognosis is degenerative at best), and it didn't make me laugh, however I did enjoy it. It was a bit different and I though it tackled the issues and emotions surrounding the situation well.
4. Bridesmaids
Having missed out on this when it was in the cinema this summer, I was delighted to find it was showing on our flight to the Maldives. Very funny, very watchable, and some great acting from a relatively unknown cast.
5. Something Borrowed
Another one I watched on the plane, based on the Emily Giffin novel by the same name. It passed a couple of hours in the sky quite entertainingly, and I really liked Ginnifer Goodwin's character, and the ending. Worth a watch.
6. Forrest Gump
I hadn't seen this movie for YEARS, and when I saw it was in the movie library on the plane I decided to indulge myself. Love this film. One of my all-time favourites. And ended up crying buckets (of course) – to the extent that the woman next to me asked if I was alright!!
What are your all-time favourite films? I'd love to know. Just as I'm obsessed with other people's reading matter, I'm also very nosy about movie choices!

Weiner Bows Out
There's one less candidate vying for the democratic nomination for mayor. Queens Congressman Anthony Weiner announced he was dropping out, complaining that even if he won the nomination, no regular candidate could compete with the well-oiled, well-financed machine that is the Bloomberg mayoral campaign.
"I'll make no bones about it. This is not a level playing field and maybe it's not even a fair fight."
Mayor Bloomberg has already spent more than $18 million on his re-election bid since January, about three times the maximum amount his opponents can spend if they opt for public financing.
Bloomberg defends the spending on his re-election campaign. He says any challenger is entitled to matching funds and no one will re-elect him unless they think he's done a good job in office.
"This is one of these things that comes up every time - if you look at the history of this country, wealthy candidates don't always win - as a matter of fact i saw a study recently of wealthy congressional candidates and the vast bulk of them lost."
Listen to a report, live from the scene of Weiner's announcement:

Advice about Living in Richmond
Priced out of Berkeley-Move to Richmond?
March 2013
We want to own a home. Tired of renting. And now the market is crazy again in Berkeley, where our kids are settled in school and we have our whole community. We are considering a move to Richmond or in some areas of Oakland- where houses seem to be much more affordable (and most areas have WAY less crime than Berkeley, despite its reputation!). I feel we could be happy there, but am having a hard time thinking about transitioning our kids out of berkeley schools, which is inevitable at some point if we move out of berkeley since I've heard inter-district transfers are becoming much more stringent. I want to hear from other families who made similar moves in the Bay area. Any advice BPN? Bye Bye Berkeley
We moved from renting in Berkeley in 2000 to buy a home in the North and East neighborhood in Richmond. It's diverse, relatively safe, and has a sense of community. Housing prices right now are very affordable-- Homes that were selling for over $500,000 are now around $200,000. They are also building the new lab in Richmond which will bring new great stuff to all of Richmond. jb
We lived in Berkeley many years ago and moved to northeast Richmond in order to buy a house.I live in the Mira Vista neighborhood, some people call it East Richmond Heights, not far from the Del Norte Bart station, east of San PAblo Avenue. I love my city and I love my neighborhood. We have great new restaurants, a wonderful library, Catahoula Coffee, the Richmond Plunge, convenience to bart, reasonable prices. My neighborhood has active email networks and neighborhood potlucks frequently. We also love our police chief Chris Magnus, who has made significant changes in policing and crime issues. The Richmond hills homes are an incredible value - views,beautiful decks, privacy, woodsy backyards, etc. Richmond also is very proud that they made national publicity with the innovative soda tax on the November ballot. (it failed, but raised a lot of good conversations). Richmond's mayor is a Green Party member; in fact Richmond is the largest city in the US with a mayor who is a Green. Most of us are very proud of our town and are very glad we put our investment here. Richmond homeowner
What are the Good Neighborhoods in Richmond?
Sept 2012
We're considering a move to Richmond. Where are the family-friendly, walkable areas of Richmond? We already use Richmond Kaiser, so I'm a bit familiar with the area, but would love to know of general areas to look for housing. We have 3 children and my husband works in the city. Are there areas that are walkable (to groceries, bank, post office, parks, etc.), near BART, and maybe near a decent school? Thanks! Future Richmond Resident?
I have lived in northeast Richmond for a very long time and am very happy with my neighborhood. I live east of San Pablo Avenue (but still close to San Pablo Avenue) between Barrett and McDonald Streets. Our homes are well-maintained and people are caring. The accessibility to both bart and the AC transit bus lines is extremely convenient. I could easily live here without a car. We are presently trying to decide what to do with the corners on McDonald Avenue and San Pablo. People are very caring about what goes in those spots in our neighborhood. I can get to Point Isabel in 10 minutes, to the EC Plaza in 10 minutes, to HIlltop Mall in 10 minutes, to Pt Richmond in 10 minutes. I think it is perfect. Point Richmond is lovely, but besides being expensive, I think it is isolated and, despite the fact that the lovely Plunge is there, I think it is too far away from things. But that's just me. Point Richmond has a strong sense of community too. Most of us feel that our city is overly criticized due to a few bad eggs - depending on the neighborhood, we have a nice, affordable place to live. Richmond resident
I have lived in Richmond for 5 years. I live in North and East ( a few blocks from the casino). I don't think it is a very exciting place to live, but I have always felt safe there. I love my big backyard. A lot of the people on the block are renters so we were never friendly with many people. I always feel a little far away from things and you can't get fresh bread except from Safeway. The price of housing is so much cheaper than anywhere else that is as close to SF. Good luck on your decision.
Point Richmond is what you want! Nice, safe walkable neighborhood with a couple of small markets, restaurants, a great pub, post office, library, Starbucks, pharmacy, dry cleaners, beach, gorgeous swimming pool, nice park, hills for hiking, farmer's market in the summer and many community events. Our elementary school is thriving and has a dual-immersion Spanish program. Happy in the Point
There are plenty of Good and Great Areas to live in Richmond! Don't be misled by the news! I live in the Bella Flora Community, a relatively new development 5 years old ... but, there is: The Country Club Vista Area The Richmond Heights Area The Carriage Hills Area The Richmond Annex ( probably the closest to what you are looking for and where I was raised) There is also the area out by DeAnza High School ... Then there is the Point Richmond Area And The Marina Bay Area
Take your pick Richmond is a great place to live and making progressive changes by leaps and bounds! Can't say enough ... Happy Richmond Native!
There are many good neighborhoods in Richmond. I live in the Richmond View area and although there is great hiking on my doorstep (an entrance to Wildcat Canyon is just a few blocks away) and Mira Vista has become a wonderful off-leash dog park and community rambling spot, there are no businesses in easy walking distance, apart from a handful on the Arlington at Olive Avenue (Arlington Market is a great convenience store with lots of organic and natural foods, but it's small). BART is about a 30 minute walk away--downhill is not too bad, but uphill is grueling--we never do it. So if you want to be in walking distance to BART, post office, and stores on San Pablo, then I recommend areas closer to San Pablo Avenue. Mira Vista post office, Catahoula coffee, and a variety of good Mexican and Asian restaurants are in the area around Clinton Ave/McBryde Ave and San Pablo. Not a cute or hipstery area, but safe and inexpensive. Another, older area is the area up the hill from San Pablo around Barrett and MacDonald avenues on the EC border, many very nice 1900s through 1940s homes. That area is walkable or bikeable to parks, Williams Natural Foods, BART, Target, banks, etc. I think the neighborhood school for both those areas I described is Mira Vista Elementary, which also has a small middle school. It's a good school, with nice facilities and strong administration. There are also several private schools in the area: Crestmont, Tehiyah, Montessori Family, though Windrush is no more. Richmond Rocks!
I moved to Richmond Annex from S. Berkeley a year ago and I love this neighborhood. I was a little weary of being in Richmond but the Annex is a hidden gem! I live in the hilly area (Burlingame/Mendocino 94804) and from every street corner is a gorgeous view of the golden gate bridge, some of the homes have beautiful views as well depending on which side of the street you live on and the slope. There are lots of families w/ young children, a good mix of renters & homeowners. I am a renter myself am paying $1650 for a small 3 bedroom home so you can find some good deals in this neighborhood. I have 2 youngsters who are not in school yet so I can't speak to the quality of the school district but from the other parents I've spoken to, they prefer to send their kids to private schools?
The weird thing about the Annex is that though it is closer to El Cerrito schools, fire dept's, etc- because you have a Richmond zip code technically you have to be served by the Richmond services. I do feel very safe here (as opposed to S. Berkeely where I was subject to several bike & car thefts, etc) but the area right past the 80 E/W freeway overpass becomes more suspect. I can walk to the El Cerrito library, there is the El Cerrito Community Center/swimming pool off of Moeser Lane which is also about 10 min away walking distance. You can also walk to the El Cerrito Natural Grocery Store off of San Pablo but I did most of my grocery shopping at Trader Joe's, Safeway, or Richmond Costco(5 min drive.) Lots of places to walk to eat right off of San Pablo(Jack in the Box, burrito places, chinese food, thai food, etc.) In terms of parks, there are several w/in walking distance (Mendocino, Cerrito Vista, Huntington.) I have a close friend who lives in Richmond Marina, I think the housing there is more expensive but the proximity to the Marina Parkway is gorgeous for walking around. Not that many grocery stores or places to eat though. Good luck! Loving the Annex

Re: Affordable area (low $300k's) with good school district
I would suggest the Richmond area ... So many wonderful things happening here! And you can still get great housing at reasonable costs! We live in the Bella Flora Community right off of the Richmond Parkway. Only about 5 years old we got our 5 Bdrm 2.5 bath home for a little over $300,000. It's a very diverse community. My children play outside, ride their bikes to our neighborhood park, have made friends and we genuinely love where we live. There are several homes up for sale in our development unfortunately, lost due to foreclosure. I would suggest Washington Elementary Schools Spanish Dual-Immersion which is doing Very Well. After that for Middle School I suggest Manzanita Middle School which is a charter, then for High School Middle College High located on the Campus of Contra Costa College. My Babysitter who is an entering Junior this year will graduate with both a High School Diploma as well as an A.A. Entering college as a Junior! We are very proud of her and we hope to make the same educational plan for our children Mama of 3

Re: New job in SF - where's a sunny place to live?
well, i read the responses and i have to take issue w/ the post that said stay away from richmond. i didn't see the original post, but there are plenty of great places to live in richmond and we have a lot of middle class families here. in addition, you will find cute, affordable houses, some good public schools--including a dual immersion school--and plenty of high quality private schools. plus the diversity here can't be beat. we have richmond art center, free music festivals, horse stables, and access to other cultural venues. it's 25 minutes to sf, 20 to san rafael, 45 to napa, 15 to oakland. neighborhoods to look at are richmond view, richmond annex, north & east (north of the 30s), point richmond and some of the newer areas near hilltop. the city has problems, no doubt about it. but so does berkeley, oakland and sf. it all depends what neighborhood you're in. the one thing i have to say that does suck about richmond-el cerrito is the summer weather, which is just like sf. but i'm an old beach bunny from l.a.. anyway, to whoever said stay away: you should come up here sometime. you might actually like it! in richmond 10 years

Re: Cheaper but safe enough neighborhoods
Hi There! I have to chime in with praise for Richmond! I grew up here, married moved to both Hercules and Pinole and found my way back to Richmond. Let's face it ... Commuting is awful and with the cost of gas it's just crazy! We have purchased a brand new home and are completely happy, we don't hear gunshots and might I add growing up I never heard them either and I lived in the ''flatlands''! Lots of changes are being made in Richmond ... go to the city website to check it out. You have to also keep in mind that Richmond is a large city most of the stuff that is hyped up on TV is located in a small isolated section. Crime happens EVERYWHERE (and always has) and in this economy we shouldn't be surprised. We moved to the Country Club Vista Area which is a newer community near the Richmond Country Club, off of the Richmond Parkway. We walk our children to the neighborhood park, our neighbors are amazing and we got a really good deal on our home. Definitely worth checking out!
Good Luck to you and your family! Born in the City of Richmond and still love it!
Moving to Richmond this month
July 2008
Our family of three is moving to Richmond this month. We are familiar with most cities and interesting neighborhoods in the Bay Area but have spent no time in Richmond. I'm interested in learning what others enjoy about Richmond, what events take place, great restaurants, parks, etc. Thanks! kh
I'm curious to know which area of Richmond you're moving to. Richmond is big and has many neighborhood areas. I live in East Richmond (unincorporated county) below the Arlington between Barrett ave and McBryde. We love our neighborhood. It's just about 5 miles from Marin Circle in Berkeley, We have a great little local market, a great coffee shop down the hill on San Pablo, Mira Vista Elementary School- newly renovated and a great public schoool, MIra Vista School Field which is a very friendly neighborhood park/dog park and a huge community of really wonderful neighbors. Just above the Arlington are the Wildcat Canyon hills and Alvarado Park...miles and miles of great hiking and undeveloped land. Down on San Pablo Avenue is Safeway, nearby Home Depot, OSH, Williams Natural Foods, a variety of restaurants including ''Sa-wa dee'' Thai Restaurant on Nevin and SP. Our neighborhood is relatively safe (safe as any safe neighborhood) and quiet.
I'm not as familiar with other parts of Richmond but many friends who live in the numbered streets below San Pablo are equally as in love with their neighborhood and community. If you're moving to East Richmond, check out East Richmond Neighborhood Council, I think it's ERNC.org and you can find out a lot more. Feel free to e-mail me if you have any other questions. june
We have lived in Richmond for the past 8 years (in the East Richmond hills, or ''Richmond View''). Alvarado Park is part of the East Bay Parks (Tilden, etc.) and is great for taking the kids and dogs, hiking, picnicking, etc. Another great walking area is Point Isabel, near the Richmond Costco. There is a dog park there as well as a paved path which is great for walking, cycling, skating, etc.
There are lots of events, and the Richmond Public Library is a great place to read up on the various festivals, street strolls, etc.
Point Richmond is quaint little gem of an area that is worth checking out.
We love the El Salvadoran restaurant La Bamba on San Pablo just north of Barrett, which has excellent food.
We have a new-ish coffee place, Catahoula Coffee, at 12472 San Pablo Avenue. The coffee is great and there are farmer's markets there occasionally, too. Hopefully others will chime in as well! Christine
We've lived in Richmond for over 25 years and raised two kids here. We live above San Pablo Ave., north of Barrett Ave. One of our favorite places in Richmond is the Richmond Art Center. It's located in the Civic Center area, around 25th and Barrett, next to the wonderful library, and it offiers an amazing array of classes for kids and adults. Williams Natural Grocery is great, and in the same ''strip mall'' is a wonderful Vietnamese restaurant (can't remember the name of it) and a great copy store -- Prime Copy. Just a block north is Taqueria La Bamba with excellent Salvadoran food, and on 23rd street is great Mexican food at Portumex. In Point Richmond don't miss the Hidden City Cafe. That said, El Cerrito, Kensington, and Berkeley are so close that we consider them in our neighborhood as well! Judy

The Belgium Public Utilities Committee on Monday recommended, albeit reluctantly, that the village raise the sewer rate by 3% to cover utility losses mostly from paying off debt.
After auditors raised a concern that the village was covering shortfalls in the utility with its fund balance — essentially an entity's savings account for emergencies and one-time purchases — Belgium hired an engineer to examine the situation.
Last month, Amy Vaclavik, a project engineer with McMahon and Associates of Neenah, presented options that would raise the rate by 9% or 14%.
The committee said those increases were too high and told Vaclavik to come back with a 2% model.
In an email to Wastewater Superintendent Paul Bley, Vaclavik said a 2% increase would fall $6,000 short of meeting the department's expenses. She recommended a 3% rate increase, which would also apply to septic hauler dump charges.
The committee discussed cutting its equipment replacement fund, called the sinking fund, but Director of Public Works Dan Birenbaum said upgrades would be needed regardless. He said if the village's backhoe isn't replaced next year, it would need new tires that could cost about $4,000.
Given Belgium has a higher sewer rate than area communities, raising the sewer rate at all wasn't a popular option among the three committee members who also serve as trustees on the Village Board. Josh Borden said the water rate is the No. 1 complaint from village residents.
But the village still has $335,000 in debt from wastewater treatment plant improvements.
Committee member Clem Gottsacker made the motion to recommend the 3% rate increase, "as much as I don't like to do it."
The motion passed, 2-0. Rose Sauers abstained. After the meeting, she told the committee she wanted more information on the issue.
The 3% increase would bump the village's quarterly rate of $118.14 to $121.68 and its usage charge of $5.86 per 1,000 gallons to $6.04.
The increase would still leave the utility $1,500 short, but Birenbaum said budget projections could be adjusted to find that money.
The Village Board is slated to discuss the issue at 7 p.m. Monday, Feb. 13.
If the board approves the rate increase, it would be effective March 15 and appear on residents' second quarter sewer and water bills.

At the most basic, primitive level, I love the lines and shapes and silhouette of the bicycle, and to draw those elements alongside figures, it's just really enjoyable for me and how I love to make marks on paper. And of course, the juxtaposition of stoic figures from an era gone by with funny modern-day sayings is just fun… there's a real attitude about someone posing with their bicycle. Beyond that, on a deeper level, the history, the lore of travel and roads is fascinating to me (like, how did all these highways get here???). I think it's worth investigating and paying tribute to the history of travel as we know it–how good roads came to be (Horatio Earle, etc.), why they were demanded in the first place, how means of travel today is both a blessing and a curse, something we both love and hate, and how the simplicity of the bicycle is, as ever, both totally practical and totally a joy to ride.
A lot of old printmakers such as Jim Dine, Leonard Baskin, Maurcio Lasansky and contemporaries like Harrell Whittington (my college printmaking instructor), Jonathan Aumen (a friend from college), and tons of illustrators have really influenced my love for mere mark-making and line, tone, shape, texture, subdued colors, and hand-lettering. Other comic book and graphic novel artists, like Bill Sienkiewicz, Kent Williams, Ash Wood, and Jason S. Alexander have really inspired my more cinematic sequential work. And I'd be remiss to not mention my wife Annie Koelle, who is really one of the greatest artists I know.

Thank you for reviewing this recipe.
I was nervous at first because I used strawberry banana greek yogurt but it still turned out delicious! It just has a slightly different taste, but still very good.
Yummy Nesquik Nibbles
I make these and they was so easy and very moist and good.These are the perfect sizes for my grandkids to eat not to big or not to small they just love them.I definatey will be making these again.
Perfect Little Cookies
I thought these cookies were perfect for a sweet fix! They're just right to pop into your mouth and enjoy for that chocolate craving! They stay moist and soft until you gobble them all up (which doesn't take long). I make these all the time because they're really easy!
extra nutrition
These cookies are sweet enough that if you choose to sandwich them with peanut butter, the fresh ground pure peanut butter is great...a lot more protien than the sweetened whipped peanut butter of the name brand type!
Its ok.
They are chocolaty, but they dry your mouth out a lot, best served with milk should not be taken lightly. They do turn out moist and very spoungy which is always a good thing. They are good but not insanely good. The smell is very nice, fills the whole house with the scent of chocolate cookies.

Cincy Bike Share Funds Approved
(Cincinnati) It could be available by this summer. Cincinnati Mayor John Cranley announced Wednesday that the city will give Cincy Bike Share $1.1 million in start-up funds that will be combined with private donations.
"Bike Share which a lot of cities are doing for tourist and what not, where you can rent a bike ride it around downtown in the street and then leave it at another station," said Cranley on 55KRC speaking with host Brian Thomas.
Cincy Bike Share will start out with 35 stations and about 300 bikes in downtown, Over-the-Rhine and Uptown near the University of Cincinnati. He also said private funds will be used to maintain operations.

Life is good. I try to have fun with whatever I do. Independent and a easy going personality describes me well. Excited and passionate about life and what it has to offer. Comfortable within, driven by my work, keep an open mind about things and people. I live by the golden rule.
I enjoy any type of activity around water and also like to explore the mountains and trails in the area. Hiked Mount Baldy this year and to "Bridge to Nowhere". Like fast cars, worked for a big German Automaker in the past.
Perfect scenario: "A healthy relationship is one where two independent people just make a deal that they will help make the other person the best version of themselves."
I'm looking to find a cool guy :) . Cool in the sense that he just knows that he is cool without constant reassurance,... Funny and able to laugh about himself,...Kind in the core of his heart so that he can be kind to others and to himself,...Loving and Caring sounds so easy to do :) and with a Plan,...able to think things through and stick to it even if it gets tough sometimes. A guy that knows how it feels to trust. Ready for a long term relationship.
I don't have a typical type of man I'm finding myself attracted to and have an absolute open mind about my new online dating adventure. In reality it is always nicer to be approached first ;)
Yes one thing I know because I have been told this many times...I'm good at making people feel comfortable.
Friendships that I share, Coffee, Sweets, Fashion ~nice heels, laughter and hiking.

Can you please tell me what your surgeon's name is? I was hoping to also get this procedure, but I want to have the information before jumping into anything. And was it $1600 including everything, or was there additional costs? READ COMMENT

Yorgo Alexopoulos Works Selected as June's Midnight Moment in Times Square
Just in time for the month of the Summer Solstice, Yorgo Alexopoulos's site-specific June Midnight Moment will fill 42 large LED screens with abstracted celestial forms, creating a virtual solar system in Times Square. The artist's film, titled Transits, will premiere just before midnight on Sunday, June 1st, and play every night throughout the month from 11:57 p.m. to midnight. Midnight Moment is a monthly presentation of The Times Square Advertising Coalition (TSAC) and Times Square Arts.
New York-based artist Yorgo Alexopoulos is best known for his innovative use of new media and technology in the contemporary art and film industries. The artist often transforms his paintings, photographs, films, and digital works into immersive time-based, fine art installations.
For the June Midnight Moment, Alexopoulos converts Times Square into a digital tapestry of lushly colored video artworks that are synchronized and displayed across 42 large LED screens. His videos are renderings of intermixed animations of abstracted celestial forms, geometric shapes, patterns, and expansive views of outer space. As planets and stars pass across one another, the artwork explores the human process of interpretation and perception. Displayed across the wide array of screens in Times Square, the viewer experiences depth, movement, and motion through the artist's use of opposing temporal and spatial animations. Each night, the artwork unfolds over the final three minutes before midnight, creating a uniquely immersive experience.
Yorgo Alexopoulos said, "The pieces I make fuse my interests and worldview into an artwork that has some mystery or abstraction but enough common symbolism that anybody can relate to. Ultimately, the audience makes their own interpretation but along the way the artist and viewer share a collective experience."

Science is hard, but fair. Give it less than your best… well, GIGO, right? But if you respect the cosmic forces that bind us together, you'll open a world that can be understood… and mastered. So step it up, Freshman Doom. One day, you'll get that doctorate.

If you love headaches and disappointment, I suggest you buy that Crystal Radio kit. Instructions (even the included pictures) are awful and many people had to go and bug a different diode to actually get it to work. You also need lilliputian fingers to be able to get the things together.
Bionic Ear - It really bugs me when I can find the exact same thing on Amazon for $23.00 (with free shipping when your order is over 25 bucks) And there is another version (that looks the same) called the "Educational Insights Sonic Sleuth" for $21.46!
Night Vision glasses.
You would think that WOOT would know that it's parent company sells these for less. $15.54 Amazon Prime.
For $7 the Kitchen Chemistry set lets me make flip-flop slime?! I can eat that right off the flip-flops I have now for free...
Awesome that some parts of some of these kits have not changed in 40+ years. The giant beige earphone (& twisty wire) to the radio... the switches on the circuit board kit... probably most of everything just with updated packaging...
The dinosaur is not a T-rex, it has too many fingers. Personally I don't care, but my child would be disappointed. Never underestimate the passion of a boy and his dinosaur knowledge!

You sure about that?
Don't get that "Treasure Tracker" for you kid unless you also teach him/her the Metal Detecting Code of Ethics http://gometaldetecting.com/Code-of-Ethics.htm and get them an experienced and responsible detectorist to help them get started. Might just as well get a good detector that you too can use (not this toy).
Interesting that they dropped the price on the Poof-Slinky Bionic Ear by $11 the day after my first comment. But too little, too late -- already ordered from Amazon!
Unfortunately, they are not deals if Amazon offers it for less.

In this lesson, you will learn a safe and proven technique for tackling the writing sample. Perhaps the most misunderstood portion of the entire LSAT is the writing sample. You may have friends who have told you that the writing sample is not an important part of the test. Don't believe them. Even though it is unscored, in some cases it could represent the most important part of your file.

Just wanted to call this one out.... That is flat out a ridiculous statement. Who gives a hoot whether or not a loan shark or a "Punk" shark is wanting to kill you or not.and your concealed handgun permit and appeals for justifiable self-defense are fatuous.
If you are being attacked by anyone and you are in fear for your life, you are justified in using your firearm for defense. It's not like he was in the act of committing a crime. Bottom line is simply this. Neither you nor myself are in DA's office and neither can state for the record whether it would be consider justifiable or not... My thoughts would be simply; I'll take my chances that I would be cleared because the perpetrator would not stop and I was in fear for my life, end of story..

My front room is finally finished and I am slowly putting it back together. I decided on Sea Pearl by Benjamin Moore, which is the same color I have in my office and bedroom. It's a lovely shade of white with a bit of a greyish hue, that I can't seem to get enough of. I usually use (and prefer) flat paint, but with Finn's little fingers starting to grub up the walls here and there, I decided to switch to an eggshell finish so that the walls are at least wipeable.
We used to have a dated spray-on speckled finish to the walls, along with the wide horizontal stripes that the prior owner painted (and I never knew the colors to), and the ceiling was an awful texture that both Josh and I hated. My Dad smoothed both the walls and ceiling out to a nice flat finish and also filled in the recessed box above the mantle that I felt was too restricting.
It's a nice fresh start to a space that I was tiring of. While I did enjoy the stripes for the six years we have lived here, I just wanted a change and a blank canvas to work with.
When all was painted and ready to decorate, the starkness was a bit of a shock. The trim and details don't quite contrast the way they used to and the room just looked really white. However, I've lived with it for about a week now, and it's growing on me. I keep making changes, and with the holiday decor taking center stage at the moment, it's hard for me to imagine the room without all that fluff. But, I like it, and that's all that matters.
Now, on to some holiday decor…. (sorry for the sheer volume of photos in this post, but I took them all weekend, so I had to share…)
These pictures were taken over the course of the last three days. They end with pictures from today, with Finn in his dinosaur jammies. I don't think my poor tree is going to make it until Christmas. ;)
P.S. The grain sack dog bed, is from Maria at Dreamy Whites. Hannah and I both adore it!

The regulator has sent out a letter to ADIs outlining further measures for sound residential mortgage lending practices
The competition watchdog has hinted it may further broaden its regulatory powers to look beyond Australia's big four banks
Aussie's John Symond is concerned about fresh data showing a third of Australians don't know their own interest rates.
I am amazed that the percentage isn't lower, most consumers think that once the loan is in place their duty is done. Most never return to look at the percentage as they have more important things in life to worry about, like paying off the credit card, interest free term on that TV coming to an end Etc. That is why this industry needs to stand up and be proud of what it does, at least we know that the client has been place into a loan that will in the long term benefit them and their family. I would like to see the difference between lender direct and broker clients on a similar survey.
It would be a sad obsession if you had to know exactly the interest rate on your home loan at any point in time as Symonds suggests. Better advice would be to make sure you get the right loan in the first place and work with a broker you will review your loan on a regular basis.
Scopher...totally agree with you there. I can't be bothered reviewing my interest rate every month and comparing to other loan products. Geez....what's 0.5% here and there.....the Big 4 lenders keep changing position in terms of cheapest to dearest every RBA rate change anyway!....one day it is Westpac dearest, next cycle it is ANZ, next cycle it CBA and then next cycle its back to WestpacWhy waste time constantly chasing the cheapest rate out there? Poor advice from John Symonds who is supposedly an expert on these things.Its better to get a good broker that structures your loan properly to ensure you can refinance and/or take out more equity when your circumstances suit (for e.g avoid cross-collateralising or selecting a honeymoon rate product without offset facility over a premium product that DOES have offset facility). When I see my broker he knows rates is not the main thing I look out for.....give me good structure advice instead of updating me on rate differentials!

Boardercross X Boards
I was wondering something, am i just seeing freestyle boards or different style of boards in boardercross Xgames & Olympics??
I'm looking to getting into competitive boardercross and was wondering of what style boards they are using and what the main winners use like nate holland / seth wescott...etc.
Anyone have links to the winner's boards would be nice also, thanks!
Definitely not gonna be seeing any freestyle boards in high level boardercross. Something freeride oriented that is directional, stiff, responsive, and has great edge hold would be my guess.
I believe most of the boardercross riders use Kessler boards from Switzerland. You can use the search function in this forum, I believe there's a review on one of the boards. Or you just google the brand name.
I should add though that these board cost about three times as much as your usual board.
ah, i mean, i just though i always saw the two lips as in a freestyle type of board, but was thinking it might not be quite "freestyle" per say, so was just wondering. Thanks.
I would assume starting out in the BX sport would be fine using what kind of semi cost effective board?
Just starting out, pretty much anything freeride oriented will be just fine.
So i checked out the Kessler boards, is this the correct one - Kessler Ski & Snowboards
Or would The Alpine be the more BX style?
Here's the type of board that Seth Wescott rode, looks to me like it has a lot more apline/race influence than most freeride/all-mountain boards:
Kessler Ski & Snowboards
lol, thats exactly what i linked...lol. So basically if race/freeride had a baby, this is what it would look like :P
What about bindings, would you all prefer snaps or straps ?
Lol, I was in the middle of putting my post together when you linked to that, so I didn't see it. My bad.
I think a lot of the more serious boardercross folks use hard boots and plate bindings, but that stuff is expensive as hell.
anyone able to tell me if i do BC, should i do snaps or straps ? I would think weight would be the main issue, but idk, what do you all think ?

We develop a low temperature, organic solvent-free method of producing iron containing carbon (Fe@C) nanoparticles. We show that Fe@C nanoparticles are self-assembled by mixing ferrocene with sub-critical (25.0 °C), near-critical (31.0 °C) and super-critical (41.0 °C) carbon dioxide and irradiating the solutions with UV laser of 266-nm wavelength. The diameter of the iron particles varies from 1 to 100 nm, whereas that of Fe@C particles ranges from 200 nm to 1 μm. Bamboo-shaped structures are also formed by iron particles and carbon layers. There is no appreciable effect of the temperature on the quantity and diameter distributions of the particles produced. The Fe@C nanoparticles show soft ferromagnetic characteristics. Iron particles are crystallised, composed of bcc and fcc lattice structures, and the carbon shells are graphitised after irradiation of electron beams.

Echo 1 ASR Review And Upgrade/Silencer
People Who Liked This Video Also Liked
Inexpensive Quality Mosfet Review
Did this video help you?
Trip Walnut: What suppressor is that because I can't find a suppressor that I think will fit
Sobo: @ Mike OD im thinking about doing this to my asr, can you tell me all the parts you put in this asr and how much all the the parts cost?
Mike Schultz: I got this gun for Christmas a few months ago. They seem to have changed some things in the time since this video. I have never had a problem with my bi-pod. it snaps right in and locks securely. I don't think that upgrading the internals is really needed. Yes they are plastic but they are well built and sturdy, I get 455 consistently, (the guy at the airsoft store asked me what I had put into it and was amazed it was stock) with .20's though I run .32's through it (little heavier so the wind doesn't mess with it as much and even in doors it hits right where i put it.) You can actually load the BB's without the guide by using your fingers. You will need to tighten the butt stock because it comes with a little wobble, but it's easy to get to and with a couple turns of a screw driver it tightens right up. I never had to mess with the hop up, with iron sights I was able to hit a quarter sized target at 160 ft., adding a scope and getting it sighted in, I'm able to hit individual letters printed on the target. This is an amazing gun, right out of the box, and for the price it's a great way to get into airsoft sniping. No I don't work for Echo, I just love cheap guns that equal or out perform more expensive guns. My GBB KJW pistol only cost $50 and kicks harder and is just as accurate as my dad's $150 KWA pistol. I also have an Aftermath MP5 that was about $100, it's more accurate than my Echo1, has a higher fps and rate of fire than my dad's KWA M4 (he's a bit of a KWA fan if you can't tell.) and is extremely light due to it's polymer body, which is amazingly rugged.
Fluffin: Do you believe that they have changed around the internals since then?
Phil Bivins: very well made vid. i don't have this rifle, mine is an old well type 96. i picked it up off ebay, used, andi got what i paid for. needs all new internals but thats ok I need a project. i think its going to keep me busy upgrading for awhile. thanks again
jacob lindley: this guy must be from new york
Mike OD: I just realized i have the same colors as the goddam brady bunch BLAH
Mike OD: this rifle is modified is excellent. it never misfeeds. I would recommend it, but to make it a brutal airsoft rifle, you will need to do what I do to all my rifles, and that means customize it
armando31665: your house looks like back on the 80s and 90s awesome dude
fantasticmrfox23: Hey I have this sniper and it is completely stock. I'm thinking of doing some of the upgrades like you have done here. Could you tell me what spring, spring guide, etc to use? Also would a tight bore be necessary? Just let me know what I could do to upgrade this gun. Thanks!
Noooo1998: go to airsoftpro.cz and lok for sniper uppgrades and click Well mb06 and there is a full cylinder kit for it.
F.E.A.R Airsoft: CAn you inbox me like the ffull list of upgrades with this I would appreciate alot also i subbed and like
Mike OD: i wouldn't use .23's, too light for my liking, I would use at least .28 or .30 with a stock setup
Arcty: Would .23g BB's be good for this gun?
lilhinkle4444: Oh okay. Also, can I just get any barrel for my ASR, or do I have to get a certain one? I want to upgrade my barrel with a tightbore, I'm thinking of going really low like 6.2, 6.1, what do you suggest? Also, if you'd rather me message you, let me know.
Mike OD: if your gun is stock then you have EVERY problem I have had with my gun, stop fooling yourself and fix it the right way
Mike OD: yeah man it can be a real kickass sniper if tweaked here and there
Mike OD: most of the stuff evike .com sells...angel custom parts are just as good as first factory and a touch cheaper costwise, I have both
lilhinkle4444: What site do you recommend?
Mike OD: First factory 3 element piston and power/ accuracy piston head for APS-2, first factory sp170 spring for APS-2, and any stainless steel 7mm/9mm spring guide combo for APS-2 will work just fine :)

For countries facing a crisis in child health and survival, low health system capacity and lack of funding for health-system development are serious macro-level constraints that can limit the impact of strengthening community partnerships, the continuum of care and developing health systems to achieve specific results. Efforts to save childrens lives will therefore require countries to not only to look into the potential for expanding health interventions but also to address the constraints and obstacles that might hinder advances. It is also advisable that countries include the following measures for the development of health systems in their strategic health plans:
- Identify and remove health-system bottlenecks: Bottlenecks to health-service delivery can occur at all levels of a health system. Obstacles can arise, for example, at the level of communities and households, where, for instance, demand for health services may be low; at the level of facilities and outreach, which may be limited by a poor supply of affordable drugs and high attrition rates among community health workers; and at the highest levels of government that set and implement health policies. Community partnerships can play a role in removing some bottlenecks by enhancing contact between community health workers and services and the households and communities that are lacking essential health interventions. Facility-based care and outreach initiatives will be required both to support community health workers and to provide services for those health interventions that require more specialized assistance. At the policy-making level, sound leadership, advocacy, technical assistance and global health partnerships can help to address bottlenecks.
- Monitor progress and problems in coverage: Regular monitoring, feedback and adaptation of programmes on the basis of evaluation and evidence are vital components of a well functioning health system. Measurements of the health-based Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) depend on such instruments as Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) and Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS), whose frequency is being increased from every five years to every three years in order to better evaluate progress towards the goals. In addition, national, subnational and community-based monitoring processes are essential tools in the analysis of progress and problems encountered in scaling up interventions.
- Phase in intervention packages and health-system strengthening: A phased approach to health service delivery allows countries to put in place an initial package of interventions that can then be expanded over time depending on the capacity and condition of their health systems. In sub-Saharan Africa, the World Health Organization, the World Bank, and UNICEF, at the invitation of the African Union, have jointly developed a strategic framework to support African countries in their efforts to achieve MDG 4. Phase one would provide a minimum package of high impact, low-cost interventions including components such as antimalaria interventions, nutrition, HIV and AIDS prevention and treatment and the Integrated Management of Neonatal and Childhood Illnesses (IMNCI), along with stronger support to outreach services and community partnerships. The second phase would comprise an expanded package that includes further neonatal and maternal interventions, improved water supplies and adequate sanitation through national policies and the mobilization of additional funding. The final phase would introduce and scale up innovative interventions, such as rotavirus and pneumococcal vaccines (to protect against diarrhoeal diseases and pneumonia), and enhance the supply of and demand for this maximum package. In the context of the Strategic Framework, the following cofinancing scenario is proposed: In all three phases, almost half of the additional funding to scale up the minimum package would come from national budgets, including budget support, with 15 per cent coming from out-of-pocket expenditures, and one third from the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFTAM), UNICEF, the World Bank, WHO and other donors.
- Address the human resource crisis in health care:. Several developing countries are facing a health worker crisis; addressing this crisis in sub-Saharan Africa alone will require an unprecedented surge in staffing levels in the coming decade. Almost 860,000 additional workers are estimated to be needed to scale up health-care provision to the level required to meet the health-related MDGs in that region, more than half of them community health and nutrition promoters. Efforts are already under way to expand the number of community health workers in many developing countries, as well as to create incentive packages that will decrease attrition rates. Evidence suggests that multiple incentive packages often combining small monetary incentives or in kind payments with a strong emphasis on community recognition and supervision, as well as personal growth and development opportunities tend to have a significant effect on reducing attrition rates among community health workers. In Guatemala, for example, supervised community health workers had attrition rates two to three times lower than those who were unsupervised, because their link with outside experts gave them a higher status.
- Strengthen health systems at the district level: The decentralization of health systems and an increasing focus on the district level can be seen as an effective vehicle for delivering primary health care to marginalized children and families at the community level. But decentralization is not without risks: It can have unintended consequences, such as deepening inequalities based on poverty, gender, language and ethnicity already existing in communities. Furthermore, even where decentralization efforts have been successful, experience suggests that transforming an administrative district into a functional health system takes time. Nevertheless, the experience of decentralization during the past decade has shown that, on balance, health districts remain a rational way for governments to roll out primary health care through networks of health centres, family practices or equivalent decentralized structures, backed by referral hospitals. Where districts have become stable and viable structures, they have demonstrated notable results, even in situations of complex emergency, as in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Guinea. Similarly, Mali has broadened its health-centre networks and services for mothers and children. In countries where decentralization has been accompanied by reforms of public administration, there has been significant progress within a few years. Examples include Mozambique, Rwanda and Uganda, all countries that suffered many years of conflict and economic collapse but have since made significant progress in reforming government institutions and performance, including their health systems.
Finally, especially in the case of Africa, efforts to improve harmonization of aid and to scale up activities have increasingly focused on utilizing the health-related MDGs and other indicators as the benchmark to strengthen the health system. The emphasis on such outcomes aims to create synergy between the outcomes and inputs. This means that developing a countrys health system is framed as part of the process of achieving the goals, not distinct from them.
Health systems development for outcomes
A health systems development for outcomes approach to health-service delivery defies the longstanding dichotomy between vertical approaches to achieve outcomes and horizontal approaches to strengthen systems, arguing that both aims can be realized by adapting health systems to achieve results. It also recognizes that optimal child survival, growth and development are more likely to be achieved and sustained if preventive measures are available to future mothers (i.e., adolescent girls and young women) before their children are born and if they benefit from a continuum of care for maternal, newborn and child health.
The strategic framework also analyses bottlenecks in the health systems of 16 African countries and suggests the potential impact on the MDGs of removing these bottlenecks country by country. Based on this framework, more than 10 countries in Africa are currently revising plans such as Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers, health-sector development plans, sector-wide approaches and medium-term expenditure frameworks to strengthen health systems with the aim of concrete health outcomes for mothers and children.

My prayers are with you all!
I have fond memories of Summer work crew working for Dave at Concordia.
The Peace of the Lord be with You always!
You are all in our thoughts. So glad we had the honor to meet "Big Klemm". With just one meeting, he left a lasting impact on all five Hanson's. Sending our love!
We are deeply saddened over the loss of your son David. May the happy memories you shared carry you through the days ahead. May he rest in peace and may you find comfort knowing he has gone home to our Heavenly Father, where we will all be together again some day, a place of joy and no pain. Love, Per and Maria
Our deepest sympathy to all of you for your loss. Dave will be so missed by us, too. As relatively new neighbors, we were looking forward to deepening our friendship. He was warm and caring, helpful and supportive, funny and smart. And he gave great hugs. He may have gone to a better place, but he couldn't have been more loved and respected while he was here. Our love and sympathy.
Dear Family Klemm,
Though we hardly knew him, David was always friendly and helpful (like the rest of the Klemm's). And smiling. Recently, he was often in our thoughts and prayers. Deepest condolences on your loss of David. He will be missed by many. God Bless during this transition.
My deepest and most heart felt condolences go out to the entire Klemm family. David was a decent and beautiful person and I am privileged to have had the opportunity to know him. I will pray for your confort and peace of mind.
Very sorry to hear of your loss. Please except our condolences.

My deepest sympathy to the Family. David will be greatly missed by so many around the waterwheel.
Dear Diane,
Please know that I am keeping you, your children, and your grandchildren in my prayers. I only met David once or twice years ago through my mom, Kathy Lattig, who was the secretary of Redeemer Lutheran Church at the time. He was a wonderful man and, no doubt, a wonderful husband. I know that his legacy of compassion, kindness and loving spirit will live on in you and your family.
Dear Willard and Jeanette,
My condolences to you both in this time of loss. You are both wonderful people and raised wonderful children. David was a wonderful son, husband, father and grandfather! I know you will miss him dearly; however, his legacy (which is your legacy as well) lives on in you and in those he touched! Please know my prayers are with you!
Diane & children, Willard & Jeanette, Danny & Family - My deepest condolences to all of you during this difficult time. David has been on my mind this week & now I know why. He was a great guy & he will be truly missed. We all have such wonderful memories of boarding at Waterwheel Farm & they'll be treasured forever! Miss my neighbors dearly! Wishing I could be there with you. Hugs for all of you.
Dear Diane,
We were all so sad to hear of David's passing. David was a gentle giant.
Then I heard a voice from heaven say, "Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on." "Yes," says the Spirit, "they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them." (Rev. 14:13)
We will all miss him.
My condolences to all of the family. He will be greatly missed.
Diane & family,
Please accept our deepest condolences! We will miss him dearly but God loves him best so HE called him home to rest. I will never forget that broad smile & strong voice when he led the choir. He made us feel so welcomed at Redeemer. He has left a big void but he is in a better place, free from pain & suffering. God will console you. The fond memories and God's strength will help you smile again. May his soul Rest In Perfect Peace!
To the Klemm Family, we were sorry to hear of Dave's passing,he was always laughing,a wonderful person, he is at peace now.
Diane and family,
My prayers to all of you for comfort during this time. I am glad I had the chance to meet David and enjoy his antics at our wedding (no glasses, remember). He brought a lot of joy to his family and will be missed.

The USC Upstate Pre-Dental program is an advisement track within the biology degree program. Although many dental schools do not require a bachelor's degree, few students enter dental school without completing one. Students already having a degree and aiming for dental school should concentrate on taking the courses that will best prepare them for taking the Dental Admission Test (DAT).
Dental school admission is on a competitive basis. Important factors considered by admission committees are grade point averages (GPA), DAT scores and letters of recommendation. Recent entering classes at the MUSC (Medical University of South Carolina) College of Dental Medicine had an average undergraduate GPA of 3.09 and averaged 17 on both the academic and perceptual ability sections of the DAT. Pre-dental students should complete their applications to dental schools no later than October of the year before they expect to enter dental school. Students apply through a centralized application service, AADSAS (American Association of Dental Schools Application Service). DAT (Dental Admission Test) exam: The DAT is comprised exclusively of multiple-choice test items and consists of four sections: Survey of the Natural Sciences, Perceptual Ability, Reading Comprehension and Quantitative Reasoning.DAT results are reported in terms of scale scores. Scores used in the testing program range from 1 to 30. There are no passing or failing scores; a scale score of 18 typically signifies average performance on a national basis.The minimum core of courses that are needed before the DAT is taken are: English 101+102 Mathematics 126+127 (Precalculus I & II) Biology 101+102 Chemistry 111+112 Chemistry 331+332 (Organic Chemistry) Physics 201+202 or Physics 211+212This core of courses plus eight additional hours in science electives also represent the required pre-dental courses for the Medical University of South Carolina College of Dental Medicine. Pre-dental students must start their math and chemistry sequences as soon as possible in order to take the DAT exam at the appropriate time. Students must have organic chemistry and physics completed by the end of the junior year, as the DAT exam should be taken the spring semester of the junior year (preferred) or no later than the fall semester of the senior year.More
information on the dentistry profession can be found at the Bureau of Labor and Statistics.

And maintain the necessary signatures right up the command chain to assure that happens without desk-jockey interference. As a general rule, most folks that are inordinately good at their job get any tool they require. SEALs are among the world's best.

Welcome, skip to the content.
Cowderoy's Dairy describe themselves as 'a milk bar and a cafe next to a cool park.′ They look after brekky, morning tea, light lunches and sweet treats. Best of all, the kids are welcome, with their own menu and a park next door to play in. They also happen to be dog-friendly, which makes it a true family affair.

I'm usually in a big hurry to get home after a duck hunt, but sometimes on my way home from hunting I'm starvin like Marvin. Even though Golden Pride on Eubank/Central has some tasty burros, I hate to stop in ABQ on my way home for several reasons, plus I-40 east thru the canyon isnt the best place to eat and drive.
So, does anybody know a good burrito joint in Belen?
I promise:
1. not to post online any pictures of the place, or of any burritos that i might eat there.
2. not to eat there too often.
3. not to take anyone else there (not really an issue since i hunt solo most of the time.)
I am sorry for:
1. not taking the time to scout out good burrito places for my self.
If you are not comfortable posting up the name of a good place to get a breakast burrito, feel free to PM me.
