Previously i had a non incisional double eyelid done, the results are okay. Now i hope to change the hight and style from tapered to parallel. Is it necessary to remove the previously buried suture. If yes, why? My concern are since removing the suture may form scarring and the crest may not necessarily disappear though. Are there any medical device to detect the buried suture to accurately remove all of them?
For a Double Eyelid Revision, Need to Remove Previous Sutures?
Doctor Answers 2
For a Double Eyelid Revision, Need to Remove Previous Sutures?
For a revision, I would recommend an open technique. In this case, if the sutures were still present, then I would remove them as part of the operation to change the lid crease. There would be no productive reason to leave them in.
You can increase the height and style of your double eyelid after non-incision Asian blepharoplasty
You can increase the height and style of your double eyelid after Non Incision Asian Blepharoplasty. In this case you wouldn't absolutely need to remove the sutures that were there before. But removing them would not be very difficult and shouldn't markedly impact your procedure if it were redone in an open fashion. You can also do the revision with the non incision technique and it should be done just like if your current fold is natural and not from surgery.
I prefer doing Asian Blepharoplasty in an open fashion because I think it is more accurate and leads to more reliable results. I don't know how long you had this procedure but it might have lasted longer had your done the double eyelid procedure in an open manner. To make the crease lower would be much more difficult open and closed. It is not really possible even to make it lower in a closed non incision technique.

Barcelona's victory over bitter rivals Real Madrid in the race to sign Brazil forward Neymar will increase the pressure on Real president Florentino Perez to come up with a similarly high-profile acquisition.
The 21-year-old Neymar, seen as one of the brightest prospects in soccer, announced on Saturday he had picked Barca over Real and would be leaving Santos to sign a five-year deal with the Catalan club.
As well as a gifted athlete, Neymar is a massive global celebrity and linking up with Barca's Argentine World Player of the Year Lionel Messi will guarantee spectacle on the pitch as well as a huge boost to the club's marketing profile.
Barca recaptured their La Liga title from Real this season but fell in the semi-finals of the Champions League and Neymar will also help rejuvenate a squad in which leading figures like David Villa, Carles Puyol and Eric Abidal are nearing the end of their careers.
Real, by contrast, are in disarray after a season without major silverware that prompted the club and coach Jose Mourinho to agree to part ways.
Construction magnate Perez is up for reelection next month and while he looks for a replacement for Mourinho, Real's members, who own the club and choose the president, will be expecting him to unveil a signing to match Neymar's.
Reports in Spain have said Perez is targeting Tottenham Hotspur's Wales winger Gareth Bale, and that Atletico Madrid's Colombia striker Radamel Falcao and Malaga's Spain playmaker Isco are also on his wish list.
The snaring of Bale, valued at 42 million euros ($54 million) on transfermarkt.com, or Falcao, valued at 60 million, would help ease the pain of a difficult season.
It would also boost the fans' hopes that Real, the world's richest club by income and the nine-times continental champions, can return to the summit of the game.
Real have spent more than 400 million euros on players since Perez returned to the presidency in 2009, including a record 94 million euros on Cristiano Ronaldo.
In that time, their haul of major trophies has been one La Liga title and one King's Cup, a meagre return on investment.
Perez, who has been credited with transforming Real into the world's biggest-earning sports club, was forced to abandon the presidency in 2006 after his "galacticos" project foundered and the fans turned against him.
He is unlikely to be challenged at next month's elections but if he is unable to get the better of Barca, restore Real's prestige and, most importantly, bring titles to the club, he may have to walk away again.

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- The New York Mets announced that three-time Gold Glove center fielder Carlos Beltran will play right field this season and Angel Pagan, who took over in center last season when Beltran was injured, will stay there.
The decision has as much to do with Beltran's surgically repaired right knee as it does Pagan's breakthrough performance last year. Beltran, 33, only played in 64 games last season after undergoing surgery in 13 months ago. He's still wearing a brace on his knee and will be limited to DH duties for at least another week.
"In my heart, I still feel that I can still play center field, but at the same time, this is not about Carlos, it's about the team," Beltran said before Monday's game against the Nationals. "I don't want to create any distractions here. I want to play right. It's best for the team. It's going to be best for me also. Best for my knee."
Pagan, 29, was a fourth-round pick by the Mets in the 1999 draft, but until last year he had never played more than 88 games in a major league season. Stepping into a full-time role for the first time, he hit .290 with 11 home runs, 69 RBI and 37 stolen bases -- and perhaps most importantly, played solid defense in Beltran's place.
"I think having him right next to me is going to be a great plus for me," Pagan said. "I'm going to keep looking up to him and keep trying to pick his brain because he's one of the best center fielders out there and I'm going to try to be like him."
The move should keep Beltran from having to put any extra stress on his knee and keep him in the lineup on a more regular basis. After playing in 161 games and winning his third Gold Glove in 2008, Beltran has seen action in a total of just 145 games the past two seasons.
Beltran has played just three games in right field in his major league career, all with Kansas City in 2000.

In this sharply comic novel, Waugh fictionalizes his own life story in a richly fascinating manner. The Ordeal of Gilbert Pinfold recounts a period of mental confusion and breakdown in the life of Gilbert Pinfold, an established, middle-aged novelist. Brought to life by veteran actor Michael Cochrane, Pinfold is prone to paranoia and memory loss, which he attempts to cure with alcohol, and later a cruise to the tropics. However, when his over-active imagination makes peace of mind impossible, will tragedy ensue?

Payday Loans Sydney Nova Scotia
Many people are skeptical of financial institutions that have high rates of interest and can get the money to you personally quickly. Payday Loans Sydney Nova Scotia fall into this category. If you're considering this method, then you should make sure you realize all you can concerning them. When you need money fast, read this article to find some information.
Those who need cash may need to turn to Payday Loans Sydney Nova Scotia. However, it is important that people know what they're getting into before signing the contract. Payday Loans Sydney Nova Scotia usually have excessive rates of interest, and additional fees makes it very difficult to pay off the loan on time.
If you are considering applying for a payday loan to a different personal line of credit, stop and think it over. It may find yourself costing you substantially more to use this method over just paying late-payment fees on the personal credit line. You will be tied to finance charges, application fees and other fees which might be associated. Think for a long time if it is worthwhile.
Fees which can be tied to Payday Loans Sydney Nova Scotia include many kinds of fees. You will need to learn the interest amount, penalty fees and when there are application and processing fees. These fees will vary between different lenders, so be sure you look into different lenders before you sign any agreements.
Bank account data needs to be shared with a loan firm. Often, consumers do not want to share this type of information and might not make an application for the loans they want. Payday loan companies be prepared to be paid back promptly when your paycheck comes through.
It's a matter of fact that Payday Loans Sydney Nova Scotia have a bad reputation. Everybody has heard the stories about failures of when these facilities get it wrong and the expensive results that occur. However, inside the right circumstances, pay day loans can possibly be advantageous to you. Here are a few tips you will want to know before stepping into this type of transaction.
Always settle your loan by the due date and avoid getting any extensions. Extending the credit will only create a "snowball effect", compounding a person's eye fees and rendering it harder to pay back on the next deadline.
When looking for a cash payday loan, usually do not settle on the 1st company you discover. Instead, compare numerous rates that you can. While some companies will only charge you about 10 or 15 percent, others may impose a fee 20 or even 25 percent. Do your homework in order to find the cheapest company.
If you feel you have been taken advantage of by the payday loan company, report it immediately in your state government. If you delay, you may be hurting your chances for virtually any sort of recompense. As well, there are several people out there as you that need real help. Your reporting of those poor companies is able to keep others from having similar situations.
Before getting a cash payday loan, it is vital that you find out about the different types of available so that you know, what are the best for you. Certain Payday Loans Sydney Nova Scotia have different policies or requirements than others, so look on the Internet to understand which one meets your requirements.

Despite no volleyball on the slate, we were brought some breaking news on Thursday in the form of two college commitments — one on the female's side, one on the male's side.
Kennedy senior Caroline Erb announced that she orally committed to Muhlenberg College in Pennsylvania. I confirmed to me that she plans on playing volleyball for the Mules in 2014 and that because it is a Division-III school, there is no scholarship.
JUST IN: @KennedyGaels senior Caroline Erb has verbally committed to playing volleyball at @Muhlenberg next year. #LoHudVolleyball

Later in the night — not long after, actually — Suffern boys volleyball standout and reigning Journal News player of the year Tom Sharp also announced that he had decided on where he will take his talents next season.
However, unlike Erb, Sharp when sharp attends Lynn University in Florida, he will not be continuing his career. Instead, the Mounty said he will be playing lacrosse for the Fighting Knights in what will be the 2015 lacrosse season.
Suffern senior Tom Sharp will attend @LynnUniversity next year to play lacrosse, not men's volleyball. @LoHudLacrosse #LoHudVolleyball

During the live blog chat last night, I was informed that John Jay's junior libero Theresa Swertfager will be playing softball for the University of Florida when she graduates. Because it was an anonymous post — I should rephrase — especially since it was anonymous post, I'll get in touch with Swertfager just to make absolutely sure it's a done-deal.
Even though we don't cover John Jay-East Fishkill, it's no secret that Megan Theiller is one of the best players in the section. So when it was announced during the chat that the senior had been offered a scholarship to play at Fairfield, it's worth noting here. I'll try and pin that one down on Friday.
If you either know of anyone (or are someone) who has committed to a college — at any level, for any sport or strictly for academics — please let me know; I'd be happy to shout them out and add them to the "Where are they now?" list next year. Feel free to tweet or e-mail me with any announcements.

Back to the Basics of FFS Online
In the next couple of weeks, schools across the United States will once again open their doors for the start of a new school year. Think of the kids starting school for the first time this fall. Most of them are excited that they are old enough to go to school, and they are looking forward to their new adventures. I'm reminded of that great poem by Robert Fulghum, "All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten." Some years ago I wrote my own version, "All I Really Need to Know I Learned in FFS Online" and it seems appropriate at this time of year to share it again:
- When I need support, it's there for me on the Message Boards.
- Following the 'rules' is good for me.
- It's easier to give support than to receive it.
- When I have confidence in myself, I can overcome anything.
- Drinking water is very good for me.
- There are a lot of resources to help control my weight.
- There's no such thing as having "just one."
- Posting my feelings and thoughts on the Message Boards helps me to feel better.
- Becoming smokefree saves a lot of money.
- No matter how old I am, it's never too late to become smokefree.
- Success is up to me.
- Cravings pass with time and I can get through them.
- Planning ahead helps me to avoid slips.
- Saying things out loud such as "I can do it!" makes me feel stronger.
- It's OK to disagree agreeably.
- Physical activity can be fun.
- Giving myself rewards helps to reinforce my commitment to stay smokefree.
- Change is good.
- By becoming smoke free I can inspire others to do the same.
Getting back to the basics of FFS Online is what this poem is all about. This week, take some time to get back to those basics:
Follow the 3 "rules" of the program:
- Read all the lessons in all the Modules. You only cheat yourself by rushing through the program.
- Do all of the suggested activities, ALL of them, even the ones that seem silly to you.
- Give and receive support on the Message Boards. Participate, don't just lurk.
Remember the 4 D's:
- Delay, don't give in to your urges.
- Drink lots of water.
- Deep breathe—download the relaxation exercises.
- Do something else when you get an urge—a change of activity will help distract you.
Think of these basics as the foundation of that new, smokefree life you're building. What are you going to do this week to make that foundation as solid as possible? Post about it on the Message Boards.
I'll see you on the Message Boards! :-) Mary Ella
Don't forget: If you're in the Premium program and want help fast on the Message Boards, put "HELP NOW" in the subject line of your post. If you're looking to offer help, watch for those, "HELP NOW" posts and alert your other FFS Online buddies to offer some assistance as well.

Here they go again: the politicians all getting on the bandwagon to bash the banks (''Banks told: pass cut on'', December 5). I cannot understand why the government doesn't act instead of talk. Surely it would be quite simple to bring in requirements that variable lending rates must be quoted at base rate plus a margin. The base would be the Reserve Bank's cash rate, which is variable, and the margin would be fixed by the lender for the term of the loan.
John Duff Lavender Bay
During an ordinary banking transaction on Tuesday, my wife commented to the teller that while we would suffer a further reduction in income from our retirement savings following the Reserve Bank cut, at least the national economy would receive some much needed stimulus.
Pundits should note the teller's response. Over the past year of rate cuts, she had not once processed reduced repayments on a housing loan. Every borrower so far had simply opted to keep repayments unchanged, presumably with the idea of getting free of debt sooner.
Not much extra spending there then.
Welcome to our stag-nation.
Max Edwards Figtree
Brett Jack (Letters, December 5) states our big banks are bordering on treason for white anting the Reserve Bank's attempt to keep our economy healthy. May I add another who may well fall into this category; Joe Hockey the shadow treasurer. His continued negativity (bordering on outright lies) and his running down of the healthiest economy in the world should have him run out of public life. Interest rates are lower than they ever were under the Coalition. God help us if Tony Abbott becomes prime minister aided by Hockey as treasurer.
Kevin O'Rourke Goonellabah
Our Treasurer was interviewed on the latest rate cuts. His answers, if you can call them that, show he has no idea of the real state of our economy. He needs a lesson in economics and reality. The only reason for a reduction in interest rates is to attempt to stimulate a slowing economy. He keeps comparing us to other economies. He is Australia's Treasurer, not treasurer of some foreign entity. His policies are hurting Australia.
Leo Vilensky Castle Cove
Joe Hockey's explanation that rates are so low because of bad economic management by the government would appear to now explain why interest would always be lower under the Coalition; obviously they are better at mismanaging the economy.
Mark Pearce Richmond
Move to keep classes a secret is unprincipled
It would appear those most in need of ethics education are our state politicians (''Opting out of religion only way in to ethics'', December 5). How dare they make rules that deny parents access to the information they need to make a fully informed choice for their children.
Alan Morley Belrose
Children should have the right to attend ethics classes if they wish. I say this even as a representative of a denomination on the director-general's consultative committee on special religious education (scripture). We are not about forcing people to attend our classes.
Normally, schools allocate children to scripture classes based on the religion placed on the enrolment form and that makes sense to schools. It is also practical. To solicit enrolments for ethics classes from parents en masse, however, is not ethical if the same right is not granted to every denomination in a school. Let's leave well enough alone.
In our experience, ethics has not proved as popular as religion. For instance, we have 10,033 Greek Orthodox students in state schools but we know of only a handful that attended ethics classes. I believe that most returned. Maybe the kids are smarter than adults: they figured - better the devil you know!
James Athanasou Maroubra
As a teacher of the now hidden-from-parents ethics class for primary school students it is with a heavy heart that I have had to award a fail to little Barry O'Farrell for 2012 ethics. He clearly wasn't paying attention in the fairness topic and has clung to ''moral relativism'' (thinking anything is OK) in order to buy votes from Fred Nile. We learnt that was nonsense in the first lesson.
Sorry, Barry, perhaps you'd like to sit in with my year 5/6 kids and they can help you catch up - this stuff really isn't that hard - even young kids can work it out.
Funny story on special treatment: I lose the last week of my ethics class time this term as the whole public school goes to church for a service - strangely this Christian-only mass-indoctrination event was organised without any consultation with the teachers of other religions and ethics. The same happened at Easter, too.
Nathan Lee Surry Hills
This new school policy of not allowing people to know about the existence of ethics until after they abandon religion has a rather pert truth about it.
Peter Fyfe Erskineville
Carr's hectoring won't change Middle East
Calling in the Israeli ambassador to express our displeasure at the proposal to build another Israeli settlement on disputed land on the West Bank, although a welcome change of direction for Australia, is a pointless exercise (''More tension as Canberra scolds Israel on expansion'', December 5).
Until the US starts turning the screws on Israel no amount of preaching to ambassadorial staff will change a thing and there is little hope that a newly re-elected Barack Obama has the courage to take a much-needed stick to Israel.
Dallas Fraser Mudgeeraba (Qld)
It is simply not true that Israel is ''continuously expanding Jewish settlements'' and ''creeping towards the de facto creation of a Greater Israel that swallows up the Palestinians and their land'' as Peter Hartcher and many of the Labor figures he spoke to for his story on Australia's vote on the Palestinian bid to be a ''non-member state'' at the UN seem to believe (''Right call sees Israel on the outer'', December 4).
Since 2004, Israel has had in place a policy negotiated with the Americans which forbids either the establishment of new settlements or the territorial expansion of existing settlements. The Netanyahu government has, to date, adhered to this policy. All the much-discussed construction in settlements has taken place within the existing boundaries of existing settlements, which take up less than 2 per cent of West Bank land. Moreover, contrary to claims that the ''right-wing'' Netanyahu government has been particularly pro-settlement, the rate of construction within settlements has been slower than under the previous Olmert government.
Claims that Israel's announcement of a planning process to build in E1 would render a ''viable contiguous [Palestinian] state … dead'' are absurd.
If built - and no actual construction is likely any time soon - E1 would simply connect Jerusalem to a large town that Israel would retain in exchange for land swaps in all serious peace plans proposed. Even without these areas, the West Bank at its narrowest point will still be wider than Israel at its narrowest in any final agreement.
Colin Rubenstein Executive Director, Australia/Israel & Jewish Affairs Council, South Melbourne
Does George Fishman (Letters, December 5) ever pause to consider why, in his view, the world now seems to be against Israel when once it was so supportive? And why, Paul Winter, is any criticism of Israel dismissed as anti-Semitism?
Arthur Cooper Alstonville
Driving us crazy
Please, Tony Abbott, do your country a great favour (''Abbott drives home road pledge, smh.com.au, December 5). Rather than travel down the Pacific Highway, take Julia Gillard as your passenger and drive into the sunset, fading away from public view.
Tony Re Georges Hall
Kirby so right
It is discouraging that so many cannot, or will not, see the truths inherent in Michael Kirby's clear view of our future (Letters, December 5).
The policies and actions of successive state and federal governments have deliberately and falsely undermined confidence in our public education system.
John Howard's byword was ''choice". In reality this meant ''user pays'' and, along with his unfounded attack on the values taught in our government schools, created the myth that the local school was only to be considered as a place of last resort. This in turn led to the plethora of selective schools as the state government fought for its share of the market.
Kirby's figures speak for themselves. Our comparative funding of public education is shameful. It suggests that we are too busy guarding our individual futures to be able to see what is ''in the interest of us all''.
The wonder in all this is that our public school teachers continue to provide an enriching learning environment in which their students excel academically and develop a positive set of values.
Anne Croker Woonona
Island snatched
Of course, Sandy Island exists, but when a rumour spread that a kid with some football ability lived there, Mal Meninga had it towed to Queensland and it is now hidden in the Whitsundays (''Librarian's search finds sighting of the island that is not there'', December 5).
Geoff Owen Sydney
Rugby struggles
David Lloyd (Letters, December 5) raised some excellent points about the payments to top players by the NSW Rugby Union at the expense of the local game - in particular $350,000 to the untried, untested and itinerant Israel Folau.
Rugby clubs in NSW are starved of funds. The Folau payment would help them enormously. They are the backbone and the cradle of the game. Where will the Wallabies of the future come from? Australian rugby is in decline and it is time rugby authorities addressed the problem. It needs more home-grown stars.

In 1980, at the first conference of the Australian Democrats, Sir Mark Oliphant said it was ''a party in which dictatorship from the top was replaced by consensus, a party not ordered about by big business and the rich, or by union bosses. It was a party where a person could retain freedom of conscience and not thereby be faced with expulsion. A party to which the intelligent individual could belong without having to subscribe to a dogmatic creed. In other words, a democratic party''.
Has John Faulkner been channelling Don Chipp ("Integrity in Politics; Faulkner says start with NSW Labor", Dec 5)?
Greg Loder Springwood
Full marks to John Faulkner for his proposed reforms but the only way to get accountability and beat factionalism is to open all preselections and party positions to votes by the rank and file or registered party supporters in US-style ''primaries''.

Double the chance of a knighthood
If the Duchess of Cambridge is carrying twins, it is highly likely the future monarch of Australia will be determined by the obstetric surgeon performing her caesarean section (''Stomach-churning condition, with little respite'', December 5).

As a society we are about to correct the sexist nature of one tradition but continue to tolerate the homophobic nature of another. The impending change to the royal succession law is largely symbolic, yet changes to the marriage act seek to have the real effect of equality among our citizens. Why is it OK to overlook tradition in one case, yet use tradition as the very argument against another?

Time after time
As a whitefella who has stood out on the road many times while my blackfella friends have had to hide so we could get a taxi, I am pleased the Herald has reported on the racist treatment of Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu but saddened that most white Australians have no idea that it is virtually impossible for an indigenous Australian to hail a taxi anywhere in the country (''Racist taxi driver refused singer: manager'', smh.com.au, December 5).
This is an example of the low-level racism Australia's first people live with every day.

Solution is a brake on family training
Frank Leggett experienced courtesy while driving in California (''Much to be learnt from nicer LA drivers'', December 4). Comparing this with Sydney drivers, he asks: "What's missing from people's lives that makes them so aggro when they get behind the wheel of a car?" He will find exactly the same courtesies throughout Europe. Rather than a defect in our national psyche, surely the problem begins with our lack of professional training.
It costs about $4000 to get a fully-trained and tested licence in Germany. Why do we expect to do it for next to nothing? When we expect parents to train our new drivers we are simply perpetuating poor skills and attitudes on the road.

One of the reasons drivers in Los Angeles are courteous is that in the US there are 88 privately-owned firearms for every 100 people.

Shane Warne would be a terrific asset to our Test team (''Warne: I could still rip 'em in Tests'', December 5). We should also recall Glenn McGrath. And is it too early to bring back Ricky Ponting?

Don't leave renewables to market
Professor Ian Lowe has sounded the alarm on accelerating global warming and Australia's growing contribution to this greenhouse gas danger (''Coal exports add fuel to climate disaster'', December 5).
According to his figures, each year we are exporting 40 times as much carbon dioxide as we are aiming to save domestically by 2020.
He's surely right that the emphasis must be on phasing out these coal exports and increasing the pace of the adoption of renewable energy both in Australia and globally.
The Clean Energy Finance Corporation has been set up to contribute to this. It has begun operating even before it secures offices (''Green bank stirs interest from renewables sector'', December 5). That sense of urgency is commendable but the sums at its disposal - just $2 billion this financial year - are surely too scanty for the task. Beyond Zero Emmissions estimates investment of $37 billion a year for the next decade is needed if Australia wants to be carbon-neutral.
The fund is only an investment bank offering seed money and guarantees to private ventures. Nothing necessarily wrong with that - let's see if it works. But the urgency of the situation calls for more direct government involvement in the supply of renewables, such as the building of thermal solar power stations, and public intervention in the adoption of efficiency measures in production.
Human civilisation and the biosphere are too important to entrust just to the market and private corporations. The lack of significant results from the European Union's emissions trading scheme is convincing evidence of that.

Bands to key Beaver County bridge opening
Ceremonies on Monday featuring three high school bands will mark the long-awaited completion of the Veterans Memorial Bridge in Beaver County and the dedication of a nearby veterans' memorial.
"It's a beautiful bridge," said Jerry Fisher, chairman of the committee that planned the memorial. "We thought it deserved more than just a road sign."
The $22.5 million span will connect Routes 18 and 65 with Route 51 over the Beaver River when it opens to traffic on Tuesday. At 600 feet long, it's the first bridge built by the county in 55 years.
Expected to handle more than 2.1 million vehicles a year, the Veterans Memorial Bridge will link the communities of Beaver Falls, Bridgewater, Brighton, New Brighton and Rochester.
The bridge took about three and a half years to build and replaces a span that was built in 1884 at the same site, but was torn down several years ago, county public works director James Camp said. Travelers in the region used the Fallston Bridge to the north to cross the Beaver River.
County Commissioner Dennis Nichols said the new span will ease traffic and provide better access for emergency vehicles, including those headed to the Heritage Valley Beaver hospital in Brighton.
He expects the Veterans Memorial Bridge to boost economic development. "There's talk about developing Bridgewater, but it's going to help both sides of the river," he said.
Tim Ishman, the county's recreation and tourism director, said the bridge should attract visitors to Beaver County.
"Any time you can remove an obstacle or inconvenience and make getting from one point to another easier, people are more likely to travel to facilities and events to participate," he said.
State approval for the bridge was secured in 1992, and the project gained momentum after a second engineering study in 2004, Camp said.
"After that, things moved fast," he said, noting construction was done on time and under budget.
A committee sponsored by the Vietnam Veterans of America, Beaver County Chapter 862, was organized two years ago to pay for a memorial on the Bridgewater side. It raised about $100,000 so far, treasurer Larry Googins said.
Standing about nine feet, the black granite structure contains a replica of the Pentagon and insignias of seven military service branches. A surrounding wall is adorned with 21 stones symbolizing the rounds of a military gun salute.
As part of a fundraiser, about 600 engraved bricks were sold and added to the design, Googins said. The site, which includes a flagpole, will be illuminated at night.
Googins said businesses and individuals donated money and labor. "It's been a rewarding project," he said.

No compromise, no retreat from Bush
Page Tools
With the legacy of George Bush's presidency at the mercy of the Iraq war, Michael Gawenda asks whether his radical agenda can be sustained.
In the days leading up to Thursday's inauguration, George Bush did interviews with every major American television network.
The highlight, in terms of laughs, had to be the first one, with Barbara Walters on ABC. She was specially chosen by the Bushes and was treated to a walk through the White House as she questioned the President and First Lady. It wasn't hard to see why she was a chosen one.
Walters is considered to be one of the great American television interviewers of the past three decades, able to get her subjects to talk about intimate details of their lives. She does this by asking inane questions and then slipping in a tough one when it is least expected. Unfortunately, the inane questions almost always overwhelm the pointed ones.
So in the Oval Office, as the President, Walters, and the First Lady stood watching the Bushes' new dog frolic outside the window, Walters asked the President whether the puppy was house-trained. It took a number of questions, but eventually Bush conceded that it was not; the dog had indeed, at least once, pissed on the presidential rug. Walters, who sounds like an agony aunt who is herself in agony about something, found this immensely amusing, though the Bushes seemed puzzled by the mirth.
She managed to get Bush to admit that there were two things he regretted having said during his first term. He should not have said he wanted Osama bin Laden taken "dead or alive", and when the insurgency got under way in Iraq, he should not have urged the insurgents and terrorists to "bring it on". These phrases, he said, were undiplomatic and open to misunderstanding.
Walters is not a political journalist but what has been striking about the Bush interviews - and most were conducted by senior Washington correspondents for the networks - has been how deferential they have been, how soft, how unlike the sort of interviews to which Australian prime ministers have been subjected for at least the past three decades. Some people here see this as an indication of just how cowed the American media has become by an Administration that plays favourites ruthlessly and cuts any journalist it considers hostile. Others say it is simply a reflection of the standing of the office of the presidency.
Given that in the week of the inauguration Bush's approval rating in a Gallup poll released on Wednesday was 51 per cent, the lowest approval rating of any re-elected president on the eve of his inauguration in the postwar era, it was surprising to see how gently Bush was treated.
This is a President presiding over a war the success of which is far from assured and in which more than 1300 American soldiers have been killed and thousands wounded, who remains committed to spreading democracy, especially in the Middle East, as part of the "war on terrorism" even if that might, as in Iraq, involve pre-emptive military action, and who has perhaps the most radical domestic reform agenda of any second-term president in recent times.
Bush wants to dismantle the social security system, overhaul the tax system and limit payouts in medical negligence cases to about $US250,000 ($330,000) - a huge move in a country where negligence payouts can run into the tens of millions of dollars and, as a result, an army of litigation lawyers has been created.
"It's a big agenda," Bush said during his interview on CBS, "and I want to get on with it before people kind of write me off as a lame duck." What Bush meant was that second-term presidents have about an 18-month window to get things done before the race for the next presidential nomination gets under way. Then, potential presidential candidates, as well as congressmen and senators up for re-election, start worrying about their political futures and not the agenda of a president who cannot stand for office again.
Some say that second-term presidents are lame ducks from the time they are re-elected, given that midterm congressional elections are only two years away.
If the media have been relatively gentle with the President, the people have not. Traditionally, inauguration week has been a celebration of American democracy during which most presidents, even those who won narrow victories in November, poll well. The week is marked by pageantry, parties, parades and patriotism. Most presidents have given inaugural speeches that have been not so much about policy, but about unity and about all those things Americans have in common.
Bush's speech, stripped of its rhetorical flourishes - he used the word freedom 27 times - was a reiteration of his Administration's foreign policy; that for America to be safe and secure, it had to actively "encourage democracy" across the globe, even if this meant changing governments using military force.
"We will persistently clarify the choice before every ruler and every nation, the moral choice between oppression, which is always wrong, and freedom, which is eternally right," he said.
This sounds very much like his famous "you are either with us or against us" statement a few days after September 11, 2001. But the fact is that America is deeply divided, and nothing in the inaugural speech is likely to unite it.
On Iraq, according to the latest Gallup poll, 52 per cent of Americans believe the war was a mistake and 59 per cent believe the war is going badly. In a Washington Post poll published on Tuesday, 45 per cent approved of the direction Bush wants to take the country and 39 per cent said the Democrats should lead the way - a surprisingly high figure given the Democrats, after the November loss by John Kerry to Bush and the losses in the Senate and the House of Representatives, are a leaderless, divided, and demoralised party.
It must be said Bush is as fervently supported - the streets and hotels of Washington this week were full of Bush lovers - as he is despised, which has always been the lot of radicals and revolutionaries among whose number Bush should be counted.
As The Economist put it this week, Bush's first term saw "the largest tax cuts in history, the biggest shake-up of American schools in a generation [through Bush's No Child Left Behind program], a foreign policy revolution, the transformation of the armed services and the reconsolidation of executive power". Nothing he or Administration officials have said suggests the second-term agenda will be less radical.
And nothing in his inaugural address even hinted at a change of direction. Despite the admission by Bush's choice as his new Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice, this week, that there had been mistakes made by the Administration in its handling of postwar Iraq, both Bush and Rice made it clear that they were convinced the war against Iraq was worth fighting, that the US military would not leave Iraq until the Iraqi military and security forces were capable of taking over, and that the policy of pre-emptive or preventative military action was necessary in this age of terrorism and rogue states.
Neither Bush nor Rice would rule out military action against Iran if European diplomatic efforts to convince Iran to abandon its nuclear program failed and the UN Security Council failed to impose sanctions.
The most Bush would concede, in an interview with The Washington Post, was that his Administration had not done as well as it should have getting America's message out, especially to its European allies. In other words, there would be no compromising with the fundamentals of US foreign policy, but there would be serious attempts made to better explain that policy.
Asked whether he had any regrets about the decision to go to war and whether that decision, in the light of subsequent events, was a correct one, Bush said: "Well, we had an accountability moment and that was the 2004 election. And the American people listened to different assessments made about what was taking place in Iraq and they looked at the two candidates and they chose me."
Still, Bush must know that the success or failure of the Iraq mission is, to a large extent, outside his control. The Iraqi elections, less than two weeks away, will be marked by violence and intimidation. If after the election the violence continues, if the country descends into civil war, if American soldiers continue to die in Iraq, what would Bush do then? And what would it mean for Iraq, for the US, for the Middle East and for the war against terrorism if the US left Iraq and Iraqis to the chaos and bloodshed of a civil war and at the mercy of triumphant terrorist gangs?
None of this may happen. The elections may be a success and the Iraqi military may soon be well enough trained and equipped to allow the withdrawal of American troops. Some form of democracy may begin to emerge.
Such an outcome would send a clear message to Iran. It would allow the US to credibly seize the opportunity to push for peace between Israel and the Palestinians based on a two-state solution, it would force the recalcitrant Europeans to rethink their attitude to Bush and his Administration, and it would ensure Bush's position as one of the most significant presidents of the past half-century.

Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina Give Fans a 'Day in the Life' Tour; Perform on 'CMA Music Festival' Special
'American Idol' sweethearts Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina gave fans a 'day-in-the-life' look at their busy lives during Sunday night's CMA Music Festival on ABC. The behind-the-scenes montage showed the two young country singers meeting and greeting fans, napping and playing in a charity softball game together. We have to mention that while Scotty may have won first prize in the Idol competition, Miss Alaina surely showed him up on the softball diamond!
The cameras were also rolling as Alaina and McCreery approached Nashville's LP Field, the venue where the CMA Music Festival was filmed earlier this summer. The two marveled at the size of the stadium (it seats almost 70,000), with Alaina remarking, "My whole town would fit in that stadium."
Lauren Alaina shared an emotional moment with Martina McBride singing the country star's hit 'Anyway.' Alaina looked visibly nervous wearing a white gauze dress paired with brown cowboy (or rather cowgirl) boots and a brown belt as she mouthed "Oh my gosh" to the crowd.
Finally, Scotty McCreery joined fellow deep-voiced country singer Josh Turner in a buddy-buddy performance of Turner's song 'Your Man.' The 'American Idol' winner looked much more comfortable in front of the crowd than Alaina as he strutted across the stage wearing a blue crew-neck tee and a pair of blue jeans, topped off with a small wooden cross. The two finished up their performance with a big ol' bro-embrace. Judging from his performance tonight — not that we needed reminding — we'd say big things are in store for Mr. McCreery!

Shirley Asks Drivers to Be Careful on Hwy. 17
Stephens County Sheriff Randy Shirley is urging caution for drivers traveling on Highway 17 in StephensCounty as construction on the highway picks up.
The project to build a four-lane Highway 17 from Memorial Drive all the way to the Stephens-FranklinCounty line is underway and crews are working along the road in some areas.
Shirley said his deputies are patrolling heavily along Highway 17 in an effort to help with traffic safety as those crews work along the road.
"Workers are working on the roadway with no flagmen in the area," said Shirley. "They are depending on the public to be on the lookout for them. We have been asked and have been working Highway 17 aggressively."
Shirley also said that motorists need to be aware of the speed limit on Highway 17 through that stretch of road.
"From Wal-Mart all the way down to Kudzu Hill is 45 miles per hour," said Shirley.
The sheriff went on to say that because that stretch of road is a work zone, his deputies are enforcing that speed limit strictly.
"The fines are increased by the state in the construction area," said Shirley. "I want to make the motoring public in StephensCounty aware of this, especially with school starting on August 22. Hopefully, we can get folks to slow down to protect those DOT workers and the kids going to school."
Shirley said that enforcement will continue as the construction of the new Highway 17 continues in StephensCounty.
However, the sheriff said Highway 17 is not his office's only focus.
He said deputies are also patrolling aggressively for traffic purposes on the Toccoa By-pass as well.

Reimer, P. (2008) Plone as a frontend to the fedora repository. In: Third International Conference on Open Repositories 2008, 1-4 April 2008, Southampton, United Kingdom.
- Requires a PDF viewer such as GSview, Xpdf or Adobe Acrobat Reader
The Fedora repository software is a core component of the Open-Access publication platform developed by the Digital Peer Publishing Initiative (DiPP). DiPP was initiated in 2003 by the Ministry of Innovation NRW to support novel forms of scholarly communication and provides a technical, legal and organisational framework to scholars. Starting with 8 there are now 14 publication projects from various disciplines using the well established format of an electronic journal. The platform is run and developed by the Library Service Centre (hbz) of NRW. Fedora was chosen as a service layer due to its scalability, extensibility and the availability of an OAI interface. Since fedora lacks a user friendly GUI, the Content Management System Plone, based on the web application server Zope was selected to build the frontend of the publication system. Special content types have been developed, which store its content in the fedora repository instead of Zopes own database, the ZODB. Plone/Zope itself is written in Python. Via a webservice-layer Fedora-Api function calls are mapped between digital objects in the repository and plone content types, the first step of the integration of Fedora into Plone. On this foundation it was possible to build a publication platform with a fine grained security and user management, easy versioning of content, customizable workflows and individual design of the journals website. In the presentation we will show how the python modules were generated, how the functionality of the repository is made available in the content management system and what other services are connected via webservices, like URN assignment, document conversion, etc. Finally, a few examples of Open Access Journal using our platform are presented.

Claire Messud's new novel, The Burning Girl, feels somehow different from anything she's done before...
Condition: Standard
All Product Details
The undead rise again in Bite Me, the third book in New York Times bestselling author Christopher Moore's wonderfully twisted vampire saga. Joining his farcical gems Bloodsucking Fiends and You Suck, Moores latest in continuing story of young, urban, nosferatu style love, is no Twilight — but rather a tsunami of the irresistible outrageousness that has earned him the appellation, "Stephen King with a whoopee cushion and a double-espresso imagination" from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and inspired Denver's Rocky Mountain News to declare him, "the 21st century's best satirist."
Whoa. And this is a love story?
Yup. 'Cept there's no whining. But there is everybody's favorite undead couple, Tommy and Jody, who've just escaped from imprisonment in a bronze statue. And now that they're out they've joined forces with Abby, her boyfriend Steve, the frozen-turkey-bowling Safeway crew, the Emperor of San Francisco and his trusty dogs Lazarus and Bummer, gay Goth guy Jared, and SF's finest Cavuto and Rivera to hunt big cat and save the city. Really.

The First Folio of Comedies, Histories and Tragedies was sold at Bloomsbury's in London on behalf of Anne Humphries.
The first edition was one of only 600 copies of the book printed in 1623, with only 300 thought to still exist.
The book had 40 pages missing, including most of The Tempest play. A complete version sold in 2001 for £4.1m
Mrs Humphries, from Greater Manchester, inherited the book in September after she was tracked down by a genealogist as the closest living relative of Frances Cottle of Tottenham, London.
It had been gathering dust in Ms Cottle's home until her death in 2002. It took two years for the genealogist to track down a relative.
Mrs Humphries, 48, said she hoped the book had been bought by a public institution, although the identity of the successful bidder is not yet known.
She said: "This is tremendous, it's such an important piece of literature and the
history that surrounds it, it really needs to be documented.
Published posthumously
The book was published seven years after the death of Shakespeare.
It was not a commercial success despite containing 18 new plays.
"All other Shakespeare folios have been logged and registered so they know where they are around the world," said a Bloomsbury spokesman.
"However, this is one which came onto the market which no-one knew existed,
that's why it's so exciting."

Men's Soccer Coaching StaffFlames Home > Men's Soccer Home > Coaching Staff > Coach Detail
A.J. MaderoAssistant Coach
College: Liberty ('10)
Start Date: 8/12/2010
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
A.J. Madero begins his fourth year as an assistant coach and fifth year with the Liberty men's soccer coaching staff in 2014. Madero assists in practice instruction, goalkeeper coaching and recruiting. In addition, he is involved in game strategy and alumni relations.
Last season, Madero assisted head coach Jeff Alder helping the Flames rebound from a slow start early in the year to advance the 2013 Big South title game. The Flames became the first No. 7 seed to play for the conference title since 1992. Liberty shut out No. 2 seed High Point (1-0) and No. 3 Longwood to earn a place in the Big South title contest.
Having to replace several key players due to graduation from the previous year, Madero helped to guide a young squad through a slow start to finish the regular season on a nine-game unbeaten streak (6-0-3), the second-longest in program history, and a third place finish in the 2012 Big South Standings.
In his first year as an assistant, Madero help guide the Flames to the 2011 Big South title. Liberty posted an 11-6-3 overall record and a 4-4-1 Big South mark. The former Flames goalkeeper mentored freshman goalkeepers Scott Sutarik and Josh Pacella, who helped the Flames lead the Big South Conference in goals allowed (0.95), goals against average (0.91) and shutouts (9).
Sutarik led the Big South with a 0.56 goals-against average and in save percentage with an .850 save percentage, earning Big South All-Tournament and All-Freshman team honors. The freshman goalkeeper also tied for the conference lead with six shutouts, recording them in 10 games played.
In Madero's first year as a member of the coaching staff in 2010, the Flames posted a 10-7-1 record, their fourth straight 10-plus win season. Liberty finished the year ranked 21st in the nation in scoring offense by averaging 1.94 goals per game and led the Big South Conference in goals allowed, with 0.93 goals against average.
Madero, a native of Tampa, Fla., earned All-Big South second team accolades in 2009, as well as garnering conference player of the week honors during the season. Additionally, the goalkeeper was a member of Liberty's 2007 Big South Conference championship team.
Madero also etched his name on several Liberty single season and career record lists, despite suffering a season-ending injury during the Flames' first round Big South Tournament contest in 2009. He holds the lowest career goals-against average in Big South Conference history with a 0.52 GAA.
Madero posted the second-best goals-against average for a season in Liberty history with a 0.45 GAA and tied for second in program annals with Liberty assistant coach Dean Short with 10 shutouts in 2009. He compiled an 11-4-3 record and finished the year fourth in nation in the final NCAA Division I Statistical Report in GAA.
During his two seasons on the Flames' roster, Madero compiled a 16-4-6 record with a school-record low goals-against average of 0.52, logging over 2,416 minutes in the Liberty net. He holds the Osborne Stadium record with eight consecutive shutouts, completing his career without conceding a goal at the facility and finishing a strong 10-0-2 at home.
Madero earned his Bachelor of Science degree in general studies with a specialization in kinesiology from Liberty in 2010 and earned a master's degree in sports management this past spring. He also serves the goalkeeping director at Central Virginia United and has been involved in youth soccer coaching and instructional camp throughout the area.
Madero lives in Lynchburg.

As the Jon Mack Era begins at Crespi of Encino, the football program has already felt his unique stamp. Besides winning passing league tournaments and running rigorous practice sessions, Mack kept his players busy this summer with community action projects. These projects not only helped to build the camaraderie and character of the team, but also have helped Mack's players understand their responsibilities to the community.
The first project of the summer not only set a new standard of community service for Crespi football, but also taught his players an important lesson in social justice. In June, Coach Mack traveled with his family and three Crespi football players to rebuild homes in Mexico, on a hillside just south of Tijuana. Their goal was to help some recently displaced refugees build a new home. Previously, they lived in a riverbed below the hillside, but after seasonal rains caused the riverbed to flood, the refugees were homeless. To aid them, the Mexican government granted the hillside above the riverbed as a plot for their new home. Along with the land, the refugees received four garage doors, drywall materials, and tarp for a roof.
His players quickly learned that the dwelling they were building was different than an American home because it had no running water, indoor plumbing, or utilities. The finished thirty-six by twelve-foot structure was built over a dirt lot and contained three rooms divided by the garage doors.
This experience taught many lessons to senior quarterback, Kenny Stenhouse. He knows the trip changed him. "I learned to be more responsible off the field and to appreciate everything in my life," he said.
Kenny's new perspective on life gave Coach Mack a special victory. As he continues to utilize innovative character development techniques for his players, there are sure to be many more special victories in the future for Crespi football.

Finally, some good news in the world (relatively speaking): AIDS scientists at the United Nations are ready to announce that they have been overestimating the scale of the viral epidemic for quite some time now, and that the spread of AIDS has actually been decelerating over the last decade.
The Washington Post:
AIDS remains a devastating public health crisis in the most heavily affected areas of sub-Saharan Africa. But the far-reaching revisions amount to at least a partial acknowledgment of criticisms long leveled by outside researchers who disputed the U.N. portrayal of an ever-expanding global epidemic.
The latest estimates, due to be released publicly Tuesday, put the number of annual new HIV infections at 2.5 million, a cut of more than 40 percent from last year's estimate, documents show. The worldwide total of people infected with HIV—estimated a year ago at nearly 40 million and rising—now will be reported as 33 million.
Having millions fewer people with a lethal contagious disease is good news. Some researchers, however, contend that persistent overestimates in the widely quoted U.N. reports have long skewed funding decisions and obscured potential lessons about how to slow the spread of HIV. Critics have also said that U.N. officials overstated the extent of the epidemic to help gather political and financial support for combating AIDS.

SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina - The Bosnian government must expel the foreign forces still training the Bosnian army, and all sides must free their prisoners of war, the NATO-led peace force said Tuesday.
The peacekeeping force has evidence that foreign soldiers are still training Bosnian forces, said NATO's chief spokesman, U.S. Navy Capt. Mark van Dyke.
"They are in violation of the peace agreement ... and we want to see immediate action to remove those forces," he said.
Fifty to 60 Iranians, civilians since their military unit was disbanded in January, remain in the country, Bosnian President Alija Izetbegovic said in a letter made public Monday.
"It is not in accordance with the moral code of our nation to expel people who have fought with us and have no place to go because they cannot return to their countries," he wrote Sen. Robert Dole (R-Kan.) and Sen. Joseph Lieberman (D-Conn). The senators had written Izetbegovic demanding an end to military cooperation between Iran and Bosnia.
Izetbegovic did not say what kept the Iranians from going home.
The presence of foreign forces and failure to release prisoners are the two main obstacles to full military compliance with the Dayton peace accord, Van Dyke said.
While the Bosnian government freed 109 Serbs on Saturday and Bosnian Croats released 10 Bosnian Serbs on Monday, the Serbs have not released any prisoners recently, said Red Cross spokeswoman Anne-Sophie Bonefeld.
In all, 152 prisoners were scheduled for release by all parties, the Red Cross said. Sixty-two other prisoners were being held by the former warring parties for investigation of war crimes.
The international community has threatened economic sanctions if the prisoners are not freed by Sunday. The United States has repeatedly warned the Bosnian government that it will hold up $100 million for training and equipping the Bosnian army unless foreign forces are expelled.
Izetbegovic has said the remaining Iranians have received Bosnian citizenship, some by marrying Bosnian women and starting families, and therefore their presence does not violate the peace accord.
He and senior Bosnian army officials deny that Iranian soldiers or instructors are working with the Bosnian army.
Van Dyke would not give details on the number of foreign forces, or their locations, but said they were operating in "small groups."
NATO sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, said scores of Iranians, mostly top military instructors, remain in Bosnia under the umbrella of an intelligence service that is directly responsible to Izetbegovic.
Once the last military milestone in the peace accord is reached - the withdrawal of all forces to barracks and all heavy weapons to storage areas by April 18 - NATO will shift its emphasis to rebuilding the country.
"We're now saying that we will assist in civil projects in a much more dynamic way than we have done hitherto," spokesman Maj. Simon Haselock said.
NATO officials said 375 soldiers already were working to help prepare for elections, bring former enemies together in local commissions, help train police and restore electricity.

Good morning from The Oval. On this day in 2005, political humor hit a milestone with the debut of The Colbert Report.
Today, President Obama wraps up his three-day bus tour of the Midwest with two town halls in the friendly confines of Illinois. USA TODAY's Richard Wolf notes that Obama is using the trip to promote political compromise.
The first town hall will take place at Wyffels Hybrids Production Facility in Atkinson, Ill., where Obama will no doubt discuss alternative sources of energy.
The president also will hold a town hall meeting at Country Corner Farm in Alpha, Ill.
As Obama's $1.1 million bus rolled through Iowa yesterday, it came very close to the entourage of Republican opponent Rick Perry.
Then it's back to the White House, as Obama prepares a Martha's Vineyard vacation that will begin Thursday.
In other news:
The president is preparing a big speech on jobs.
A U.S. Army official tells USA TODAY that Iraq can defend itself, reports Oren Dorell. An uptick in violent attacks heightens anxiety in Iraq as the United States prepares to pull out.
The new Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in Washington opens this month, USA TODAY's Melanie Eversley writes.
Two Wisconsin Democrats survive recall attempts.
Europe gets even more nervous economically as Germany's growth slows.
We're moving forward here at The Oval, so stick with us as we report on the president's bus trip and other White House matters. Good luck out there.

If you need corrective hearing devices, chances are you've been looking around for options that not only provide improvements to your hearing but are also discounted as well. After all, saving some money here and there really can go a long way. However, the problem with looking towards discounted hearing aids is these devices not only provide inferior sound quality, but are made with poor products, typically resulting in either early damage or the complete need to replace it. This, in turn, costs you more in the long run than simply going with a higher quality product in the first place. So, before you stop by the big-box store and purchase a discounted hearing aid, you need to rear what actual customers have said about going with the inexpensive options.
Didn't Realize the Difference
Many customers of inexpensive hearing aids have gone on record to state how they never tested out the higher-end hearing aids and by doing so never realized the equipment possessed improved results. Making the switch from cheap, faulty products to quality manufactured hearing aids is like jumping from standard definition televisions to high definition. You do not know what you are missing until you test it out. The superior hearing quality can make all the difference while also help improve the overall quality of life.
Better Fit
Custom designed hearing aids from professional services such as Hearing Professionals are sculpted to fit your ear and your ear alone. After all, every ear canal, bit of external cartilage and ear size varies, and so should your hearing aid. However, discounted hearing aids are more of a one-size-fits-all, which reduces the quality of your fit. A common compliant from cheap hearing aid uses is their device either does not fit properly, it shifts around while wearing it, or it pitches and is uncomfortable. All of these problems can be corrected with specially designed hearing aids made just for you. With this custom cut and molded hearing aid, it will feel like you're wearing nothing at all.
Longer Lasting = Less Expensive
Discount hearing aid manufacturers highlight the less expensive entry price of purchasing discounted hearing aids. The problem here is the devices can break down easily, often without warning or without any real notice as to why. This means you end up buying the hearing aids two or tree times more than what you with with high-end aids.
The post Buying Inexpensive Hearing Aids? Read What Customers Have to Say appeared first on Hearing Professionals.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 7/10/2013 (1386 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Two local cemeteries were targets of vandalism in the past few days leaving caretakers dismayed by the brazen lack of respect for the dead.
Evidence of violent rampages are visible at both the All Saints Cemetery in West St. Paul and the St. Boniface Cemetery in Winnipeg.
The All Saints Cemetery, located at 4535 Main St., was vandalized sometime on Friday night and a report made to East St. Paul RCMP while the St. Boniface Cemetery, at 917 Archibald St., was hit last Wednesday and a report filed with Winnipeg police.
"Friday night, we had some vandals in here breaking mausoleum windows and statues and a bench," said Willie Korchynski, the caretaker at All Saints Cemetery. "It's really saddening that stuff like this has to happen. Especially when this is people's last resting spot."
He said the damage to about 10 monuments occurred late Friday and was discovered on Saturday.
Last Wednesday night at the St. Boniface Cemetery, vandals targeted the older area of the cemetery where about 25 monuments were vandalized, including some that were destroyed.
"It's in an older section right by Archibald. Some of them are very old. Crosses were cracked and broken and a lot of chips on the granite and they knocked a whole bunch down," said caretaker Michel Michaud.
"It's just frustrating. There's nothing a person can do. It's open 24 hours here, the main entrance isn't locked."
One of the toppled monuments belonged to a World War I veteran who died in 1919. Michaud said most of the monuments in that area were from burials in the 1920s and 1930s.
"There's going to be a lot of work (to repair the damage)," said Michaud, who had called in an assistant Monday to help begin the cleanup and repair. "Some of the smaller monuments won't be too bad to fix but some of the older ones were crooked already so it's going to be pretty difficult to level those (to put them back up)."
Korchynski said the All Saints Cemetery is a wide-open area that can be accessed easily.
"They might have to consider doing something here to secure the cemetery a little bit more. But you wouldn't think, with this being a somewhat rural area cemetery, that it would be vandalized but I guess it is."
Korchynski said breaking the mausoleum windows was particularly puzzling.
"I don't know if they were trying to break in or if they were just vandals wrecking things. I don't know what goes on in their minds."

For renewable oil producer, Solazyme (SZYM), there lies an ongoing critique that weighs on the minds of skeptics. Will the company's decision to base its technology on sugar-consuming heterotrophic algae constrain it's future outlook? The very notion of possibly utilizing "food for fuel" raises the reminiscent concern over unsustainable 1st generation ethanol, where rising feedstock costs eroded profit margins and elevated the price of food.
But as Solazyme brings online its first large scale commercial facilities with partners Bunge (NYSE:BG) and Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), such fears ultimately remain unfounded. Multiple feedstock choices, selective product output, and enhanced yield improvements remain three noteworthy advances that further distance the renewable oil producer from its biofuel-constrained peers. Additional technological breakthroughs in unconventional feedstocks continue to also suggest that sugar may one day prove to be a critical component in the long-term goal of being less dependent on crude oil.
3 Reasons Why Using Sugar Is Not A Concern:
- Multiple feedstock choices. Solazyme can convert carbohydrates to oils. This means it is not only able to utilize sugars from corn or sugarcane, but it is also able to use inputs such as glycerol, green waste, sorghum, and etc. The technology is not so much feedstock dependent as much as it is logistically constrained (i.e. aggregated material availability).
- Selective Product Output. Solazyme harnesses unique tailoring capabilities, which allow for it to design new types of oil profiles. The company can modify the properties of how some oils and bioproducts function. This further uplifts the value of the company's output and broadens the profit margins. In some cases, it can even defy the "food-for-fuel" controversy by operating under the prospect of using "food-to-make-more-valuable-food." For instance, Solazyme's whole algal flour can cost-effectively replace the use of oil, milk, butter, or eggs by providing a healthier alternative.
- Enhanced Yield Improvements. Because of its tailoring capabilities, Solazyme can dramatically increase the yields of the most valuable parts of a particular oil. This can significantly fortify the value of the oil itself by attaching a premium to it. In some cases, these yield improvements can exceed the highest natural occurrences several times over.
Because of Solazyme's ability to diversify between feedstocks, produce unique product properties, and exaggerate natural yields, the threat of using sugars as an input remains far from worrisome. The company can significantly expand its value range, thereby protecting itself from the encroachment of rising input costs. Nevertheless, there is still the issue of future capacity expansion.
Understanding The Capacity Limitation
While Solazyme is uplifting the value of sugar to the value of tailored oil, it would be misleading to believe that such technology will feasibly replace the immense demand for petroleum altogether. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the United States consumed 6.87 billion barrels of oil in 2011. This roughly equates to a little under 1 billion metric tons of oil consumed annually.
According to Solazyme's S-1 filing found here, the company's technology can roughly support 400,000 metric tons of oil per year with a facility co-located at a sugarcane mill with 8 million metric tons of annual sugarcane crush. While Brazil does continue to expand its production of sugarcane, this does suggest that the leading producing country would only be able to support roughly 36.7 million metric tons of Solazyme's oil. Even then, it would require the nation's entire production to be devoted to the technology.
The Future Of Sugars
This distant dilemma poses the question if Solazyme's potential is capped by conventional sugar's supply limitations. Yet the future of sugar stands to be much more promising than today's conventional supply would otherwise suggest. After all, carbon is very abundant. Simple sugars exist in all forms of biomass, and the technology to affordably unlock these sources is becoming more established by the day.
Consider a company like Renmatix, which utilizes supercritical water to isolate cellulosic sugars at a very low cost. The company expects to produce sugar for as little as $0.04/lb on an operating basis. The company is now working with Waste Management (WM) in a partnership that may one day turn our trash into low-cost sugars.
Then there is also the untapped supply of industry-produced carbon dioxide. A company like Proterro utilizes cyanobacteria and a modular photobioreactor in order create sugar (compared to extracting it). The company expects to use off-the-shelf materials and an efficient process that could lower the cost of sugar to $0.05/lb. Most interestingly, Proterro states that its system can produce sugars at a rate of 145 tons per acre per year, which is almost 30 times the rate of sugarcane.
(Proterro's efficient process)
With sugar futures currently priced at $0.19/lb, the promise of these unconventional sources of sugar aid on two fronts. They can dramatically lower the input costs for companies like Solazyme allowing them to pursue the more voluminous markets of low-value products, such as fuels. They can also significantly expand the supply of sugars by using unwanted materials such as municipal waste or the expelled carbon dioxide from a biorefinery, such as those used by Solazyme.
A Look At The Company
Solazyme currently trades with a market capitalization of $708 million based on the closing price of $11.37 as of October 17. The company currently trades in expectation of imminent growth as it supports a price-to-sales ratio of 20.48 and a price-to-book value of 4.93. The company's two facilities with Bunge and ADM are expected to grow the current production capacity by over 6,500%. For some time now, Solazyme has reiterated its confidence in its gross margin guidance shown below.
Final Thoughts
Solazyme went against the grain of the industry direction when it decided to pursue the use of sugar rather than exploit the "free" nature of the Sun and carbon dioxide. The company's founders quickly realized that algae was a very poor creator of sugar and a very efficient producer of oil. By specializing in the oil production aspects of algae for over a decade, Solazyme now finds itself in a leading position when it comes to producing tailored renewable oils.
Skeptics may continue to view the use of sugar as a future pitfall for Solazyme. However, such a view fails to compare this cost to the amount of value produced in its use. Whether it be through increased product value, less land use, more process control, or more efficient operations, the reality of these costs will ultimately be reflected in the company's margins. For now, the expected margins appear favorable. Looking ahead, they only seem to improve as sugar production advances in light of ongoing innovation.

repeat buyerCOMMENTS:
Used for work year around. Repeat buyer on an annual basis.
This is a great work boot!COMMENTS:
Used for work in marine environment dockside as well as when working at sea. Excellent non slip on almost any surface. Very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. Only suggestion is the plastic eyelet covering and eyelet itself. They tend to pull out from the uppers after less than a years wear, Suggest eyelets that are stitched like shirt button holes.
Great boot, Just seems sized bigCOMMENTS:
These seem to be well made, But I have found them to be sized poorly. I would love them if they fit better.
Stripped downCOMMENTS:
Removing speed laces with out disclouser seems like "Bait & Switch"
THE last shoes you will need!!!COMMENTS:
Had these for 2 days & can't say anything bad about it! I work in a warehouse and usually I can't wait till I get home to get my shoes off because my feet are killin me, but these shoes are so comfortable that I even wear it to go out! Pulling a 8-10 hr shift is no problem in these shoes! They are light at 1.535 lbs each(Yes, I actually weighed it!) vs. my [...] shoes ( 1.915 lbs each). I know it doesn't sound like much, but you'll FEEL the difference! Plus because of the anti bacterial lining, my feet don't smell! ( according to my fiance ) Definetely recommend these shoes to anyone who is on their feet all day!Bill

LinkedIn is the largest professional network on the Internet with more than 135 million members in over 200 countries and territories. As of Sep. 30, 2011, executives from all Fortune 500 companies were registered users.
What does this mean to you? If you're looking to find decision makers at a particular company, chances are extremely high that you'll find their name on LinkedIn. To do this, you have to become familiar with LinkedIn's "Advanced" search feature.
When you're on the Advanced People Search section, you can look up a prospect's name by "Title", "Company", "School" and so on. To stick with the example in the video above, say you want to work at Microsoft. In the "Company" section type in Microsoft. If you're looking to meet current, not former, employees of Microsoft, make sure to select "Current" from the drop-down menu.
If you know the job title of the person you're looking to work for, type that title in the "Title" section. If their title is one word, e.g. Librarian, then no quotations are necessary. If their job title spans more than one word, e.g. Technical Writer, then you'll have to put quotations around it.
To save time, you can actually search for more than one job title at a time. To do that, put the word or in ALL CAPS. Let me give you an example. Say I'm searching for a technical writer or a technical writing specialist. Instead of using the search feature twice I can write:
"Technical Writer" OR "Technical Writing Specialist" in the "Title:" section.
If you get too many results, try to narrow down the list by leveraging the "Keywords:" section like I used in the video example. In that case I was looking to meet engineering managers that worked at either BING or XBOX.
If you see a job posted online and want to get your resume to the decision maker directly, instead of blindly sending it to an email address, you can leverage this advanced search feature of LinkedIn to find the decision makers.
In a future column I'll show you how to reach out to these guys on LinkedIn to setup an informational meeting.
