The Ifa Dunamar hotel is a very calm establishment with pretty aged people as clients. It is one of the rare hotels of Playa del Ingles directly located on the verge of the sea, thus offering splendid panoramas on the ocean and the Maspalomas dunes. You can relax with pleasure for free in its free gym center that includes a bubbling bath, a sauna, a hammam and a gym room.
The Ifa Dunamar hotel is located on the south-east coast of Gran Canaria, at Playa del Ingles, 330 feet away from the eponym beach and its long walk bordered with bars, small shops and restaurants. Allow 20 minutes driving from the international airport of Las Palmas, located at 19 miles north. The hotel is about 30 miles away from Las Palmas, the capital of the island.
You will also find an ATM machine in the lobby. A shuttle drops the clients off for free on the beach and another one goes to the Lopesan hotels, where they can play golf or even try the talassatherapy treatment! To relax, nothing better than a gym circuit: you can alternate a sauna, a hammam, a cold water pool, a jacuzzi between two icy showers, and finish with a few exercices at the fitness center... all for free! On the other hand, and this is normal, you will have to pay for massages, with quality products of the Guinot Paris brand.
Lodging advice:
Five rooms are specially adapted for disabled people. The upper rooms have better views on the ocean and the Maspalomas dunes. The 10% of rooms located on the lower levels only offer a view on the mountain. However, some people prefer these rooms because they can enjoy the afternoon sunlight.
Built in 1972, the Ifa Dunamar hotel was renovated in 1996. A massive pyramid-shaped building, paint in sandy pink and built on 15 floors served by elevators that offer a nice musical atmosphere, the hotel offers 205 rooms. The height of the building allows you to admire the superb views on Playa del Ingles and the Maspalomas dunes. A second building of 5 floors, located on the north side, offers 68 additional rooms. A first overflowing pool of two levels located right in the front of the restaurant allows you to observe the Maspalomas dunes and Playa del Ingles while enjoying a hydro-massage jet, unless you prefer to admire the view from the two aquatic beach chairs, serving as jacuzzi. Further down, a second and bigger pool allows you to swim. The two pools are heated and offer a jacuzzi. Between them, you can relax in the numerous small private solarium decks scattered on different levels. Each client has his own beach chair with his name on it! A few rooms are located in the north aisle, in a 5 storeys more calm and sunnier building, as well as a terrace with a sauna for nudists on the roof. However, the rooms only overlook the mountain, but not the ocean. Here you will find the third pool as well as a snack bar.
Covered by carpet and nicely decorated by two original paintings, the Ifa Dunamar rooms offer two separate beds, a round table with two armchairs, a satellite TV (23 channels), a safe with an electronic code (?12 or £9 a week), individual air-conditionning, a direct internatiocal telephone line as well as a fitted out terrace (two beach chairs, a round table, two armchairs and a dryer) offering a splendid view on the ocean, the huge Playa del Ingles and the Maspalomas dunes. Only 10 of the rooms located on the lower levels overlook the mountain. The bathroom has a bathtub equipped by a handle and a flexible shower, toilets, welcome products, a double basin, a make-up mirror and a hair dryer.
The buffet restaurant Tabefe that can welcome up to 220 guests serves breakfast from 7.00am to 10.30am and dinner from 6.00pm to 9.30pm. The clients are invited to taste the international cuisine with cooking shows, and thematic evenings three times a week: Canarian on Thursdays, Asian on Mondays and gala on Fridays. For lunch, the Titana bar serves snacks from 12.30pm to 3.30pm. In the evening, you have a drink from 8.00pm to 2.00am at Oscar's pub, a former player of the Werder Bremen, a true local star! You can also taste excellent cocktails at the Ocean View piano bar: as its name clearly says, the beverages will be enjoyed with the sound of the piano and with a very nice panorama on the ocean! Another atmosphere at the Atlantico bar, that welcomes a fashion show once a week and a professional show twice a week.
The nice and large Playa del Ingles beach, one of the most renown of Gran Canaria, is 330 feet away. Close to the pool located at the bottom, a door that can be opened by the magnetic room key allows access to the beach, on the other side of the road. Here you can find all the necessary equipments: beach chairs and sunshades for 2.50 euros (£2), showers and a water sport club. This huge fine sandy beach that spreads on a few miles up to the well-known dunes of Maspalomas is supervised and bordered by numerous hotels, bars and restaurants.

Claiming that she feels happy and comfortable with Matt Kemp, Rihanna says, 'I have such a chaotic life, but at the end of the day, that is just my peace.'
Rihanna has credited her boyfriend Matt Kemp with keeping her "sane" while she tours the world, insisting the baseball star brings her "peace" and "happiness". The pair confirmed their relationship in April after reports of a romance emerged in January when the singer and the Los Angeles Dodgers player were spotted on holiday together in Mexico.
The young lovers have been kept apart in recent weeks while the "Umbrella" hitmaker tours with her Last Girl On Earth shows, but Rihanna is grateful for the support of the sports star while she's so busy working.She tells Elle magazine, "I have a boyfriend. I'm so happy. I feel really comfortable, and it's so easy."
"I have such a chaotic life, but at the end of the day, that is just my peace. It keeps me sane, really, talking to him and talking to my family."

THE year has begun and one of the questions facing women returning to work is what to wear? Top trends emerging in the new year are not only appropriate for weekend wear; they can easily be translated from the street to the office.
Local outlets have brought in printed patterns on shirts, pants and dresses and black and white strongly represented in colours with shirt dresses making a big comeback.
Bold prints can be difficult to pull off however, the popularity of this trend means that there is an abundance of patterns from which to choose. A brightly coloured, floral shirt can work as a strong statement when paired with classic pieces in neutral tones. Remember to be thoughtful when choosing accessories if you are wearing prints; subtle make-up will prevent you from looking clownish.
Black and white is ideal for the office. Shoppers are spoiled for choice as the trend enters South African retailers. The graphic combination easily projects chic professionalism if done correctly. A crisp black suit paired with a white button down shirt is a timeless combination.
Shirt dresses can be appropriate for work or casual situations depending on accessories and styling. Make sure that the cut is not too short for working comfortably.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I was dating a man for two years. We recently got married January 14, 2011 in Las Vegas. Once we came back from Vegas I found out that he was researching "can I be married to two people at the same time" on his laptop. When I inquired about it, he mentioned that he was just curious. A week ago he skipped out on me and the kids 4 another woman. This prompted me to find out if he had gotten a divorce in 2009 as he mentioned. The deeds clerk in Milwaukee found no divorce on file. He knew he was still married and married me anyway. How do I have him prosecuted for bigamy and go about getting an annulment ASAP? He flew to NY to be with another woman. Does he have to be living here in TX to be prosecuted? I found the 1st wife and informed her. How can she get a divorce in Milwaukee? Thanks .
The first wife's divorce is the first wife's problem.
You can file a motion to have your marriage declared void, which you should do ASAP. If you don't do that, then as soon as the first marriage is dissolved, your marriage will spring to life and you will start accumulating community property that you might have to split with him one day.
File your motion to declare marriage void ASAP and get him out of your life.
Good luck!Ask a similar question
You do not need an annulment because you were not married to him. One cannot be married to two people (in Texas) at the same time. The second marriage (according to Texas law) would not be a marriage.
You should ask the question under Las Vegas to see if it is different there.
The wife in Milwaukee needs to file for divorce and have him served.Ask a similar question
This is a terrible answer. The marriage is considered void and she still needs an annulment. If the first wife gets a divorce first, the automatically the second marriage becomes legal in TEXAS and she would then need a divorce.
I am a Washington attorney and have no knowledge regarding the laws, rules or procedures in the State of TX. If your situation was occuring in the State of Washington, my answer would be as follows:
When you say he skipped out on you "and the kids" do you mean your kids together or just your kids? Fraud/bigamy is certainly a basis for annulment. As for prosecution, I'd call the county prosecutor and see if they're interested. Since he resided in your state with you, it sounds like there may be sufficient personal jurisdiction over him there to prosecute him.
I highly recommend you confer with an experienced family attorney in your State about this.

I bought my copy of Damned from Chapters (Canada) on the day it was released. It is a signed copy (is that actually his signature? or a stamp or intern's forgery?) which I didn't really care about. Once I started reading it though, I realized that there were postcards wedged in between some of the pages. I'm impressed that they didn't fall out as I transported the book after buying it! I got 3...was that standard? or was it a random amount for everyone? Just curious.
Also, I have searched around and not found anyone mentioning this, so I'm curious if I got a unique defect in my copy of the book. Between pages 120 and 121 is a small fragment of a page. There are ~10 words on each side of it, and I leafed through the book to find out that it's from pages 91 and 92. The fragment is ripped along the edge. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the content on the pages surrounding it, or the rest of the book for that matter. Does every copy of the book have this fragment in it? Or only some? Or is mine just unique? Is this an Easter Egg? A clue to start looking for something? (anyone familiar with the Nine Inch Nails "Year Zero" altered reality game from a few years ago?)
BTW, I liked Damned. Not loved, but enjoyed it overall.

Unusual Circumstances
The Office of Financial Aid has the ability to review your family's unusual circumstances when determining how much financial aid you may be eligible for. There are two different appeal processes:
Professional Judgment
If you or your family has experienced a recent hardship that is not reflected on your current FAFSA form, such as loss of income or unusually high medical expenses, you may request a reevaluation of your financial aid eligibility. Students may also request an increase to their cost of attendance for unusual expenses they may have during the academic year, such as purchasing a new computer, or book and supplies that exceed the budgeted amount. To begin the appeal process, complete the Professional Judgment Appeal Form.
Dependency Override
For financial aid purposes, a student is considered a dependent of their parents unless the student is:
- 24 years old
- married
- serving on active duty in the US Armed Forces
- a veteran
- a parent with dependents
- an emancipated minor
- homeless
- assigned a legal guardian before the age of 18
If you have an unusual circumstance such as an abusive family environment, abandonment, incarceration of a parent, etc., you may appeal to be independent of your parents. You may also request limited financial aid if your parents simply refuse to provide their information on the FAFSA. To begin the appeal process, complete the Statement of No Parental Information.
|Response times vary depending on the complexity of the issues involved and the time of year. We will make every effort to respond as promptly as possible.

In September of 2011 the Rohrer College of Business held a bell-ringing ceremony to dedicate their state-of-the-art trading room spearheaded by twin brothers Andy and Scott Schwartz, wealth management advisors for Northwestern Mutual Financial Network along with many other generous donors.
The trading room – a modern, glass-walled space on the second floor of Bunce Hall, features a large interactive LCD video wall at the front and is flanked by custom, full color LED Graphical Ticker in the front and rear of the lab. The room features 27 computer terminals to crunch data in near-real time. While the room is used for many different finance classes one of the most exciting uses of the room is the management of the student managed Rohrer College Investment Fund that was started in the spring of 2001.
We would encourage you to take a few minutes to watch the short video interview highlighting the use of their digital signage in the classroom.

I wanted to subtly and naturally refresh my aging, puffy/droopy upper eyes and eliminate the beginning of bags under the eyes. Dr. Waldorf has a great reputation in our area and everyone in her office raves about what a talented and artistic surgeon she is. Instead of finding this to be true for my case, I have ended up with hollowing above and below the eyes, noticeably asymmetrical creasing below the eyes, a gauntness around the eyes made worse by the procedure, a thick scar on one eyelid with unflattering draping of the skin, eyelashes at a different projection than before on one eye, improvement in one tear trough but not the other, and paper thin skin under the eyes from fat being removed (I had been told that on a thin patient such as myself the fat would only be repositioned and not removed but, surprise, she removed some anyway...).
As for pros, I did not have any major negative side effects such as severe dry eye, a drastic change in overall eye shape, severe hollowing, or inability to close the eyes all the way. In short, I am not disfigured, but not at all happy about the outcome, either.

Mrs. Laura E. Harsha, an outstanding citizen of Oklahoma for many years, was the daughter of the Rev. Luther Newcomb and Elizabeth
Kelsey Newcomb. She was born August 25, 1858 at Napoli, New York and attended school at Pomona, Kansas, where her father was
pastor of a church. Miss Newcomb began teaching in a rural school at Valley Brook, Kansas, the spring before she was sixteen
and in July, 1878, she became a teacher in the Indian Public School at Okmulgee, Creek Nation, under the superintendent, the
Rev. William McCombs.1
Though Okmulgee was only a hamlet thirty-five pupils attended Miss Newcomb's classes. In addition to her work in the day school
she organized and conducted a Sunday school; she trained the children to sing hymns and when a circuit rider preached in the
town once a month her pupils formed the choir. At that period Okmulgee was distinctly an Indian town with few white citizens.
Stores were kept by the late Clarence W. Turner and Jonathan Parkinson. There were two doctors but no churches. "Uncle Jack"
Porter was the proprietor of a small hotel while another was run by a Negro man.2
In Okmulgee Miss Newcomb became engaged to William S. Harsha and they were married in Kansas by her father. William S. Harsha
was born at Albia, Monroe County, Iowa, February 8, 1857. His parents moved to a farm south of Ottawa, Kansas, where their
son spent the first nineteen years of his life. He went to Muskogee, Indian Territory in 1876, and drove a mail hack between
that town and Okmulgee until he secured a position in the store of Turner and Harvison in the Creek capital. Mr. Harsha learned
to speak the Creek language which was a great advantage to him in business.3
For a year after their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Harsha lived in Wetumpka where there were only two white families and two general
merchandise stores. Game was plentiful and they lived on prairie chickens, wild turkeys and venison hams which could be bought
for twenty-five cents each. When they moved to Okmulgee Mr. Harsha was a partner in a store and once when he was away from
home buying cattle a rumor was circulated that the store was to be robbed by a band of thieves. There was a large sum of money
in the till and Roscoe Cutler, who roomed in
Page 183
the store, carried the money to Mrs. Harsha who sewed the bills in the hem of her long full skirt where it remained until
all danger was past.
Mrs. Harsha saw a white boy given fifty lashes in the council grounds at Okmulgee, for stealing, and the punishment almost
killed him. Under Creek law one hundred lashes were administered for a second offense and death for a third.
Mr. and Mrs. Harsha had two children born in Okmulgee after which they moved to Muskogee in August, 1881, and made their home
on South Second Street. Mr. Harsha became a member of the first grand jury after the Federal Court was established in the
Indian Territory and he was a member of the first city council when a municipal government was organized in Muskogee. The
Harshas lost much property in the fire of 1886 which practically destroyed the town. At the time of the fire in 1899 they
were living at 321 North Sixth Street.
Mrs. Harsha was one of the first members of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union in Muskogee and the first convention of
the organization in the Territory appears to have been held there in July, 1888.4
In the early days in Muskogee, Harrell Institute, a girls' school, was maintained by the Methodist Church and boys up to twelve
years of age were allowed to attend. Bacone College took boys of all ages but it was a long distance from town and there was
no school in the place for older boys who were running wild on the streets. The W. C. T. U. decided to remedy this deplorable
situation and Robert L. Owen gave the society a lot on which to build a school. Mrs. Harsha secured a loan of $1,000 from
Professor Bacone of the college and Clarence W. Turner allowed the organization to get lumber from his yard with the privilege
of paying for it as money was available. Mrs. Harsha stood security for the sums.
By the autumn of 1890 the building was completed, two teachers were employed and the school was opened for boys and girls.
Tuition was paid by parents who could afford to do so but no child was refused the chance to study because of poverty by the
devoted women of the W. C. T. U. Salaries for the teachers were donated by liberal citizens of the town while the W. C. T.
U. members gave entertainments, medal contests, dinners and even sold ice cream on the streets to raise the monthly sum due
on the debts. As much as $100 was raised at some of the entertainments and that was clear gain as the buildings in which the
affairs were held were used without cost. Fifty dollars were sent cyclone sufferers in McAlester as a result of "The Old Maids
Indian Agent Leo E. Bennett, in his report to the commissioner of Indian affairs in 1890, wrote: "As a movement calculated
Page 184
educate the people, I mention the efforts now being made by the Woman's Christian Temperance Union of the Indian Territory
to establish a free public school at Muskogee, with branches spoken of elsewhere. This is directly educational and should
receive all possible encouragement." The loan and debts were almost repaid when the public school was started in Muskogee
in September, 1898.
Mrs. Harsha related that in 1898, Miss Frances E. Willard,5 Anne Adams Gordon and Mary Powderly (Miss Willard's secretary) made a tour of the southern states and Mrs. Harsha prevailed
upon them to visit Muskogee, although it was not on their itinerary, in order to help cancel the debt still owed by the society.
While in Muskogee Miss Willard was a guest in Mrs. Harsha's home. Miss Gordon held an afternoon meeting for women and children
while Miss Willard spoke at a general meeting in the evening.
The Indian Territory W. C. T. U. aided the Orphan's Home at Pryor. Through the efforts of this society the merchants and other
people of Muskogee sent a car load of furniture, clothing and other supplies to the school soon after it was opened; the costs
of transportation were donated by the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad.
In February, 1898, the firm of J. E. Turner & Company, of which Mr. Harsha had been a member for many years, was dissolved
by mutual consent. Mr. Turner retired and the firm, thereafter Harsha & Spaulding, became one of the prominent establishments
in the Creek Nation.
Mr. and Mrs. Harsha were the parents of nine children; Izora, Roscoe, Hoy, Rex, William, Edith, Frances Willard, Anna Cordon
and Truman. Between the years 1891 and 1905, Mrs. Harsha attended almost all of the annual W. C. T. U. national conventions
and two worlds' conventions in the United States.
Mrs. Harsha was a Presbyterian when she first came to the Indian Territory but later joined the Christian Church. Mr. Marsha
died February 5, 1939 and Mrs. Harsha passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. W. V. Ryan, in Seattle, Washington, Friday,
January 19, 1940. She is survived by three sons, Hoy of Haskell, Oklahoma; Truman of Miami, Oklahoma; William M. of Rosemead,
California, and two daughters, Mrs. Ryan of Seattle and Mrs. Joe Brandon of Para, Brazil; twenty grandchildren and two great
Funeral services for Mrs. Harsha were conducted in Muskogee, January 24, 1940 and burial was in Greenhill Cemetery.6

Designer: Charles James (American, born Great Britain, 1906–1978)
Date: 1955
Culture: American
Medium: silk, synthetic
Credit Line: Brooklyn Museum Costume Collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Gift of the Brooklyn Museum, 2009; Gift of Mrs. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., 1981
Accession Number: 2009.300.991
Reshaping the body through corsetry was one of James' lifelong fascinations. The quintessential feminine shape is perfected in this dress through rigid interior boning in the bodice and intricately tucked exterior hip drapery. As an added touch of sheer romanticism, the bouffant skirt is faced with rich white satin and supported by a profusion of colored tulle, a hidden blossom made visible with movement. Deploying a double entendre, James named the design for one of his clients, Marietta Peabody Fitzgerald Tree, mother of the model Penelope Tree, and also as a reference to the plant form, which the silhouette, uprooted, resembles.

Low complexity decision directed channel tracking for MIMO WLAN system
Chen, Ying, Jayalath, Dhammika, & Abhayapala, Thushara D. (2005) Low complexity decision directed channel tracking for MIMO WLAN system. In International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing and Communication Systems, 2005 (ISPACS 2005)., 13-16 December 2005, Hong Kong.
It is expected that the next generation wireless local area networks will be predominantly based on MIMO-OFDM physical layer. The performance of coherent MIMO-OFDM based systems critically depends on the availability of accurate channel estimations. Preambles, at the beginning of each packet, are used to estimate the channels in IEEE 802.11n systems. However, in mobile communication, when the channel is time varying, the channel variations within a given packet increases the packet error rate (PER) in the system. So the channel variations have to be tracked by the receiver. This paper proposes a low complexity channel tracking scheme for 802.11n systems to improve the PER. The delay introduced by the channel tracking scheme is within the acceptable limits.

MSHA News Release: [11/13/2008]
Contact: Amy Louviere
Phone: 202-693-9423
Release Number 08-1685-NAT
MSHA issues first-ever pattern of violation notice
Patriot Mining LLC failed to reduce rate of significant and substantial violations
ARLINGTON, Va. - The U.S. Department of Labor's Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) has issued its first-ever pattern of violations notice to a mine operator. Patriot Mining LLC of Wise County, Va., received the notice as a result of repeated violations of mandatory health and safety standards. This enforcement sanction was authorized by law in 1978 but was not systematically used until June 2007, when MSHA issued its first letters to mine operators indicating a potential pattern of violations.
"This operator had a pattern of exposing miners to potentially life-threatening injuries and illnesses in violation of the law and was given every opportunity to turn around its safety record but failed to do so," said Richard E. Stickler, acting assistant secretary of labor for mine safety and health. "Hopefully, this stronger enforcement action will induce the operator to implement the necessary improvements at its operation to prevent potentially serious or fatal harm to miners."
On June 16, 2008, mining operations from around the country were notified of their status as potential pattern of violations operators. In order to avoid being placed on a pattern of violations, each operation had an opportunity to review and comment on the documents upon which the potential pattern of violations was based, and develop and implement a written corrective action plan to reduce significant and substantial (S&S) violations in order to be removed from the potential pattern category. An S&S violation is one that could reasonably be expected to lead to a serious injury or illness.
During the evaluation period, MSHA closely monitored the affected mines' compliance records. Since Patriot Mining failed to significantly reduce its violation frequency rate, MSHA issued the notice. Consequently, during the next inspection of the mine, MSHA will have to issue an order withdrawing miners from the affected area for each S&S violation found. The withdrawal order can be lifted only after the condition has been corrected.
The mine operator will be removed from a pattern of violations when an inspection of the entire mine is completed and no S&S violations are found or no withdrawal order is issued by MSHA in accordance with Section 104(e)(1) of the Mine Act within 90 days of the issuance of the pattern notice.
Since June of 2007, when MSHA initiated a systematic review of all mines, 43 operations have been notified of their potential pattern of violations. All of the operating mines except Patriot Mining have significantly improved their compliance records. Patriot Mining's failure to improve stands in contrast to the significant improvements made at other mines.

The Ebbing Tide of Journalistic Integrity
A good friend of mine, intelligent and well reasoned, has also had it with today's media, especially regarding the topic so hot in our national dialog right now, Gun Control. I am posting his well written editorial (of sorts) below in its entirety. It is good reading, and he brings up some very valid and cogent points in the discussion.
Reasoned dialog will absolutely be accepted in the comments on this post… If it degenerates into name calling I will delete the trolls responsible. This is an Adult forum! I expect it to remain such!
Without further adieu, I give you "Joe's" editorial:
19 December, 2012
To the Media At Large:
Fair and Balanced?
Not exactly.
In the wake of the mass shooting at Sandy Hook elementary, it is becoming increasingly apparent that the Media is engendering a national trend to allow emotion to overwhelm journalistic integrity. Over the last several days many "fair and balanced" journalistic outlets such as NPR have been producing news articles that are factually inaccurate and factually incomplete. One of the tenants of true journalistic integrity is to fully research all sides of a story before releasing it. This lapse has resulted in an overwhelming bias in the reporting on the gun control debate and is clearly putting our national media into a position of no longer being a true journalistic source, but instead as a lobby for the position of gun control.
Item one: the reporting immediately following the incident was poorly sourced. Every major news outlet misreported the shooter's name and relationship to the school. They jumped right in, following the other news outlets with lemming-like precision to produce piece after piece containing factually incorrect information. Fortunately, no one was seriously harmed by this. However, one wonders what could have happened if an innocent individual was singled out as the perpetrator before law enforcement could intervene. This, at the very least, is shameful.
Item two: No one seems to be able to find or interview a credible advocate for gun rights or assault rifle owners. The recent interview with Malcolm Brady (Dec. 17) on NPR's "All Things Considered", a misnomer at best, was a farce. Although Mr. Brady is something of an expert on firearms policy, it is doubtful that coming from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms that he is an objective spokesperson for the millions of private citizen gun owners in the United States, especially when it comes to assault rifles. Simply put, the reason for owning an assault rifle is for personal protection. A cursory study of human history will show that governments fail again and again to protect their citizens from disaster and internal political turmoil. The argument is often heard from those who have not considered the factual details of personal protection of life, liberty and property that there is no need for a private citizen to own a firearm for personal defense. They say there are police or the National Guard to defend us. Studying the days immediately after Katrina will show anyone that even in good times, the protection afforded by the government will break down. When the police and their families become victims of disaster, they abandon their posts just as quickly as the folks who operate shopping malls. Being prepared means that you are ready for the scenario that is improbable, and strictly mathematically speaking, which may be above most journalists, improbable means that it will definitely happen at some point. There is no region in our nation that cannot become lawless due to either man-made or natural catastrophes. Denying this or acting as if this is so unlikely as to not be considered is folly, farce, and ignorant of the simplest lessons taught by history. One of the other lessons taught by history is that societies that become reliant on the protection provided by their governments become the victims of those governments. Even a cursory examination of the events in Syria will show that an unarmed populace is ripe for victimization, and the weapon that is providing the most effective defense for that population is the assault rifle. This point wasn't covered by Mr. Brady, the one-time soldier and apparent "expert" provided by NPR to explain the case for assault rifles. The bottom line is that in a ground based, person on person encounter, the assault rifle is the status-quo for tactical defensive engagements. Mr. Brady's experience in the military must have skipped this basic point. In most American communities, the good guys outnumber the bad guys one hundred to one, but one bad guy with an assault rifle can easily overwhelm one hundred good guys armed with rhetoric, faith in their government and good intentions. The continuing experiment that is America relies on the ability and right of the people to provide the majority of services to themselves. Outside of providing protection beyond our borders which has been delegated, and rightly so to the military, the government should not be in a position to disarm the American populace. This is the essence of the second amendment to the constitution. This is the essence of being an American, and is why the right to own firearms that guarantee that we will be able to, in times of disaster or injustice, to protect ourselves, our families, our property and our communities must be maintained. As a free citizen of America, it is more than our right to be able to defend ourselves, it is our responsibility. The media needs to do a much better job of identifying spokespersons. In the case of Mr. Brady, it would be obvious to anyone on the side of firearm advocacy that he would not be an appropriate representative.
Item three: the incidence of mass shooting is not increasing. Again with the bad math. Reporter after reporter has made the statement or insinuated that the incidence of mass shootings is increasing. In fact, we have been experiencing a lull. This occurs in statistics and is seen in many bodies of data where events occur sporadically. There are groupings of events and they occur at an average or standard rate. Since we are currently experiencing a grouping, this would appear over the last 2-3 years to be an increase in the overall rate of these incidences. Considered over a period of time going back say 30 years, it is likely from a mathematical standpoint that the rate of these incidences is not going up. The emotion involved makes us say that this seems to be an increase, but this is where that journalistic integrity thing comes in. Do a better job. Take a statistics class.
Item four: hunting is not the only credible reason for owning a firearm. A recently broadcast editorial by Frank Deford was consistent with the apparent overall stance by journalists that the only reasonable case that anyone would own a firearm is to hunt with it. Target shooting with what are sensationally referred to as "high power rifles" is one example of another use. (There is no standard for this, by the way. Any rifle could be considered to be "high power", or low power depending on how it is compared.) Also, many firearm sporting enthusiasts shoot at targets using semi-automatic firearms. These are never intended to be used for hunting or self-defense. Many organizations offer college scholarships for students who are marksmen, and the firearms they operate are clearly designed and intended to be used for target shooting of one type or another. Mr. Deford's columns are opinion pieces for sure, but as NPR's resident sporting expert, he could have done a little more research.
News reporting requires more than just reporting on what is easy to find, it requires burrowing down to find all sides of a story. Preventing emotion from interfering with this process is one reason why I have been, even as a staunchly conservative individual, a supporter of NPR's program. This year, based on this apparent lapse of journalistic integrity, I will be contributing the money I normally give to NPR elsewhere, most likely to the NRA. We have now become an embattled organization, not mainly due to the recent tragedy, but more due to the continuing loss of journalistic integrity by news organizations that used to provide facts and unbiased reporting while taking into account all perspectives that utilized view points from actual subject matter experts. Reporting on the emotion behind this tragedy is certainly news worthy, using it to grind an axe is not.
Very Truly Yours,

We're from the Government, and we're here to help!
Action is afoot in the Legislative Branch of the Federal Government that is dangerous in its nature…
Several Democratic lawmakers called for a new push for U.S. gun restrictions on Sunday, including a ban on military-style assault weapons, in the wake of the Connecticut massacre in which 20 children and six adults were gunned down in a school.
Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein, the author of an assault-weapons ban that lapsed in 2004, said she would introduce new legislation this week. Senator Dick Durbin, the chamber's No. 2 Democrat, said lawmakers would hold hearings on gun control, and several others said they would devote new attention to the long-ignored issue.
"I think we could be at a tipping point ... where we might get something done," Senator Charles Schumer, another top Senate Democrat…
Never let a Crisis go to waste huh?
[Senator Diane] Feinstein said her planned legislation would outlaw the high-capacity magazines and military-style assault rifles that have factored in many recent mass shootings, including Friday's massacre in Newtown, Connecticut. People who own such weapons now would not be required to give them up, Feinstein said.
Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes...
No... I am not going to sit idly by on this one. I simply would like to voice a request for restraint and caution in turning an extremely vile event into a catalysis for whatever agenda you find association with.
For you who want desperately for the 100% disarming of Americans... I have little use for you and even less to say to you (it is not like you would listen anyway) you will always live in that desire with the hopelessly smug attitude that you are always right when tragic events include the unlawful, and disturbed use of a firearm. Yet amazingly absent in your philosophical disposition is any instance where a life was traded for the better good. (Meaning a perpetrator of evil and ill-will was summarily dispatched (by a person wielding a firearm) before more chaos could ensue) You seldom acknowledge that Good or Bad lies in the intent of the person wielding the weapon, not in the weapon itself.
Using incidents like Newton killings for politically self riotous agenda building is easily the most repugnant act of opportunistic political ambulance chasers ever perpetrated!
Where should we be focused? How about repealing the 1st Amendment of the United States Constitution? Because, this so called "Free Press" we have? Is obviously a threat to our lives, as free thinking, free associating, used to be intelligent beings! I am sick of being "sensationalized" to death! Our media relentlessly bombards us with sanctimonious platitudes, not to better educate us of the facts of a matter, but rather in a continuous attempt to indoctrinate us on HOW we should think or "Feel" about a subject". Everything is Right or Left now... No longer is anything Right or Wrong. So what's the next logical step? Well obviously these fools can't be trusted with as pervasive a Right as free speech! Nor can we, for we are offending too many people!
Seriously, sounds like I've gone like a loon into the abyss? Really...? Is it because I brought up the untouchable third rail of Freedom of Speech? and that ONE Amendment is oh so much more protected than any of the others of the US Constitution?
Exactly my point... no one of any intellect would dare suggest that the First Amendment in the United States Bill of Rights should be repealed. No matter how offensive speech is, it is to be protected! Question for you, why would "inoffensive speech" ever need such protection?
But yet the Second Amendment, the Right (THAT'S a "RIGHT" not a conditional permission!) of the People of the United States to bear arms, is allowed to be ignored or dismissed, or manupulated simply because in the Neon Bulb of sensationalistic opportunism declares it offensive?
That is a slippery slope folks, please be careful where we tread! These Rights are there for a reason, and must be protected.
Am I a gun nut? No, I don't think so... I am however a concerned American, and I am... A Constitution Nut! Anytime the Government proposes to do something for our greater good we need to be weary... Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes... Still holds true today, but fortunately we are all educated by the Media and would have no earthly clue what that means... now would we?

Are you interested in the North Country's lakes and rivers? If so, the Center for the Environment at Plymouth State University (PSU) and NH Department of Environmental Services (DES) are looking for volunteers to help monitor our surface water quality through the state's Volunteer Lake Assessment Program (VLAP) and Volunteer River Assessment Program (VRAP).
VLAP is a state wide program that relies on volunteers to monitor New Hampshire's lakes and ponds. Since its inception in 1985, VLAP has grown to include over 180 lakes, with approximately 500 volunteers who sample at least once, but more commonly three times in the summer (once a month in June through August) every year. Of the numerous lakes in the North Country only a small number of these are involved in the VLAP program. VRAP is a similar program focusing on sampling streams and rivers. It was established in 1998 and today has expanded to include many of the major water ways in New Hampshire and the North Country including, the Baker River, the Pemigewasset River, the Ammonoosuc River, and the Israel River, to name a few. VLAP and VRAP participants sample multiple stations along a lake or river and use the data collected over time to judge the health of the waterbody, develop long-term water quality trends, identify pollution sources, and provide solutions to solve problems.
The Center for the Environment is working with DES to expand both VLAP and VRAP in the North Country. Since 2007, the Environmental Research Laboratory has worked with VLAP and VRAP volunteers providing sampling equipment, analyzing water samples, and reporting the results to both DES and volunteers. "We provide a convenient location for volunteers in the North Country and Lakes Region to drop off water samples," said Aaron Johnson, senior laboratory technician. "Approximately 12 lake and 7 river groups use our laboratory instead of traveling to Concord to drop off samples and we hope to expand the program by encouraging new volunteers to participate."
"This project was initiated because of a concern for the water quality due to impacts from development pressures and other land use changes," according to Sara Steiner, NHDES VLAP coordinator.
With more lakes and ponds being actively monitored, state officials can track the health of these water bodies which has a variety of benefits. One of these benefits is the tourism industry in the North Country. According to a DES study, if the lakes, ponds and rivers started declining in water quality, approximately $13.6 million would be lost from recreational sales in the North Country alone. Through sustained water quality monitoring of North Country's lakes and rivers, DES can quickly address water quality problems that can avoid costly restoration projects.
Johnson added, "Funding from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is helping to expand water quality monitoring programs in the North Country by providing a closer laboratory site at PSU, to service the North Country. We will also provide water monitoring equipment and funding for analysis of the water samples collected by new volunteers in 2010."
If you are interested in learning more about VLAP and VRAP and participating by collecting water samples this summer, please contact Aaron Johnson at the Environmental Research Laboratory, 603-535-3269, or firstname.lastname@example.com. And, stay tuned for information on a North Country workshop to further educate volunteers about these exciting opportunities.

Subject: Re: Marriage Impediments(2)

References: <004001c1ea80$06401120$95dc3c3f@noel>
You're right in one sense, I over generalised - and I shouldn't have joked
about such a
serious subject, so I'll qualify my comment if I may.
For a large part of the community in Walthamstow that my family belonged to
during the 40's and 50's, the reality that marriage was an impediment was
an unquestionable fact of daily life. Whether this was, or is, a
socio-economic, religious or political issue or not is irrelevant - it's an
important part of the history of that community, worthy of being recorded.
It certainly
should not be censored to protect the sensibilties of those who might prefer
it to be otherwise.
The whole street - and some beyond - heard my dear old granddad shouting
after he'd taken his 'medicine' every night, the object of his anger often
being the frequent stand up fights of the couple across the road. We all
heard my little friend screaming 'No, dad, please!' as her dad belted the
living daylights out of her. Other neighbours of ours lived in a house akin
Steptoe's Yard, they had to dig the washing and rubbish out of the bath
before they could use it. My cousins' dad gambled away his pay, so my
cousins had stop in bed on Sundays to enable their mum to wash their one set
of clothes. Another of my friends was sent home from school because neither
she, nor her clothes had been washed for some time - she washed her clothes
at lunchtime, put them on again and returned to school to steam by the
radiators all afternoon.
I believe that we were a typical working class community of that period for
many of whom, marriage was very far from a sacrament. Though for some it was
undoubtedly heaven, for many it was often hell. I don't believe that it was
very different for the many of the middle class marriages of that era
either, who
simply engaged in less obvious forms of abuse - death by a thousand
subliminal cuts?
I grew up with the image of marriage as war, which indeed it was in the vast
majority of the marriages I knew of as a child - seemingly a whole community
of married couples, forever arguing or fighting. Yet they were strangely
unified too, spouses seemed intent on disliking each other unto death and
ensuring that no
other so and so was going to get a look in.
Yet paradoxically, I had the most wonderful childhood with my Walthamstow
family - and grew up with a strong sense of community. Though many working
class spouses could barely tolerate each other, they usually jointly loved
their children and, if they didn't, there were usually loving grandparents
not far away - not that even they loved each other, you understand. My
friend and I
seemed to spend much of our childhood in fits of laughter - the lunatic
goings on
in our street were better that television, as long as it wasn't you being
Be careful, Noel, of uncritical reliance on stereotypes of institutions
like marriage, these can be as unreliable, as the statistics you are keen on
citing - and they can blind us to the historical reality of the Essex
communities we are researching that former community members like me
only too well.
I haven't yet received a tide of protest from those you say will be offended
by my comment -
could it be that other listers remember communities like the one I grew up
Were things so very different in Australia?
As May West famously said, 'Marriage is a wonderful institution - but who
wants to live in an institution.'
Certainly not the hundreds of abused Essex women and children who are part
of the living history of this age old problem, and who are acutely aware
that there's a huge gulf between the ideal and the real.

I am working on a project called Pioneer, whose goal is to prevent any malware present on a computer from tampering with code execution (details can be found at http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~arvinds/verifiable_code_exec.html). I would like to implement the Pioneer code as an SMI handler to prevent an attacker from using the SMI as an attack vector. My current plan is to generate an SMI to all CPUs on the system via an IPI. Since all SMI sources on the Southbridge as well as CPU local SMI sources seem to be disabled on a system with LinuxBIOS, I do not have to worry about catching SMIs from any sources other than mine. Thanks to you guys for an open source BIOS that makes my life a lot easier! I was wondering how on the earth I was going to reverse engineer a proprietary SMM handler to get my code to play nicely...

Hi, You can call me "FUTUREHOPE". I live in orange county California...I am connected to money and power here in OC as well as long term preppy families. I grew up in private schools. My family is politically connected.
I was one of the top students in my college. after awhile I was approached by several professors and 1 more student. We had discussions similar to the teachings of the lluminati....I met a girl at the college and we fell in love...After that,one day she basically told me she was in a cult and that they set-up our relationship to recruit me ,however should could not betray me...the other student basically told me the same thing. She asked me to help get her out of her cult. Their were other people who asked me the same thing..the evil ones have followed me 24 hours...tapped my phones...turned or blackmailed all my friends/families..because no one will help me..they just hang up very scared??
I found out that everyone of the people I have met in the last year are in this cult.teachers/friends/cops/etc...they set a whole life up with fake friends etc most of them actually began to like me and didn't want to betray/kill me...it has been a very long term setup..years in the making and lots of money and people.... I just wanted to help the girl/others and now this..The weird part is I contacted connections within the CIA-homeland security-FBI-mossad....MY only hope is the connections I made with these agencies before this ...I really want to help these people...Yesterday I was told by my people that the White upper class Illuminati is in full support of me. my college studies are mostly technical sciences...computer hacking...radio science..communications...
this cult has followed me for days yet the weird
part is they haven't killed me yet...they just follow me and stalk me...I can tell when they listen to my phone cuz ill say on the phone im going somewhere and when I get there ..they are already there? plus every once in awhile they have a female friend of mine call me and I found out that she has been a witch the whole time...I have talked to many of their witches...they all ask if I really love this girl or if it is a scam...the witches call me and are very interested in finding out if I really love her?
THEY all have positions in academia/law enforcement/governmemt/freemason lodges/witchcraft covens. The witches think I want the girl for secret information however I told them I just want her for love...some think im a agent trying to get her to testify....
I DO HAVE very high connections to military intelligence agencies from several bases...however they wont meet me in the field unless they are in the background...watching...Im sure at this point their is a DRONE above me at all times...I am too valuable...
however im terrified snd exhausted...they closed my bank account and im running the streets, my rich friends wont help? I keep telling them I just love the girl and do not care what they are involved in but they wont leave me alone..some of the witches I talked to believe I love the girl others think im an agent..I have a few questions...
WHY wont they kill me? Is this just some Illuminati initiation game? it is very real...This cult approached me..not the other way around...

2014 Indianapolis (Brickyard 400): Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Race Recap
Posted by: newsla on Jul 28, 2014 - 07:28 AM
2014 Indianapolis (Brickyard 400): Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Race Recap
Race Highlights:
⢠Richard Childress Racing teammates Austin Dillon, Ryan Newman and Paul Menard finished 10th, 11th and 34th, respectively.
⢠Newman ranks seventh in the Sprint Cup Series championship point standings, trailing current leader Jeff Gordon by 111 points, while Dillon ranks 14th and Menard ranks 16th.
⢠Gordon earned his second victory of the 2014 season and was followed to the finish line by Dale Earnhardt Jr., Brad Keselowski, Matt Kenseth and Jimmie Johnson.
⢠The next Sprint Cup Series race is the GoBowling.com 400 at Pocono Raceway on Sunday, August 4, which is scheduled to be televised live on ESPN beginning at 1 p.m.Eastern Time and is scheduled to be broadcast live on the Motor Racing Network and SiriusXM NASCAR Satellite Radio, channel 90.
Austin Dillon Drives No. 3 Mycogen Seeds Chevrolet to Top-10 Finish at the Brickyard
Driving the No. 3 Chevrolet for Mycogen Seeds, an Indianapolis-based Dow AgroSciences brand, Austin Dillon earned a top-10 finish in the 21st-running of the Brickyard 400 on Sunday afternoon at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in just his second career NASCAR Sprint Cup Series start at the historic, 2.5-mile track. The Sunoco Rookie of the Year contender started the event from the 17th position and showed speed from the start of the 160-lap event, moving into the 11th spot by lap four. He led one lap during the middle of a pit cycle before making a green-flag pit stop on lap 44 for four tires and fuel. The Gil Martin-led team struggled to communicate with Dillon during the first half of the event because a broken antenna on the roof of the car made it difficult to communicate with him unless he was on the front stretch. A pit stop under caution on lap 98 provided an opportunity to replace the antenna, while changing four tires and adding fuel. He restarted 17th when green-flag racing resumed on lap 108 and quickly worked his way into the top-12. When the caution flag was displayed with 20 laps of racing remaining, Dillon pitted for right-side tires, positioning him 15th for the lap-143 restart. The Welcome, N.C. driver spent the remainder of the event working for track position, ultimately securing a top-10 finish in the No. 3 Mycogen Seeds Chevrolet.
Start - 17th Finish - 10th Laps Led - 1 Points - 14th
"It was a really good day and I'm proud of everyone at Richard Childress Racing, Gil Martin and all of the guys. We had a communication issue at the beginning but they worked to fix the antenna. Dow AgroSciences and Mycogen Seeds had a huge group here today and I'm glad we were able to get a good finish for them and all of our other partners, too. I'm so proud of my brother, Ty, for winning the NASCAR Nationwide Series race on Saturday. Seeing that really got me fired up to do well. I would really like to get a win before the end of the year."
Paul Menard Finishes 34th at Indianapolis Motor Speedway
Paul Menard drove Richard Childress Racing's No. 27 Moen/Menards Chevrolet SS to a 34th-place finish in Sunday's 160-lap event at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The Eau Claire, Wis., driver started 29th and quickly reported his Chevrolet SS was loose off Turns 1 and 2. The Slugger Labbe-led team was able to remedy Menard's handling issues during the lap 20 competition caution with four tires, fuel and an air pressure adjustment. The Moen/Menards pit crew was able to gain five spots on pit road, putting Menard in position to restart 20th. The RCR driver's momentum was slowed on lap 30 when contact with another car caused Menard to hit the wall. This contact resulted in a left-rear tire rub and right-rear flat tire. The Moen/Menards Chevy made two stops down pit road for new tires and repairs to the left and right rear wheel wells to prevent future tire rubs. These pits stops during green flag racing meant Menard would have to contend in the 43rd-position two laps down. The Moen/Menards team worked hard to regain track position, but ultimately finished in the 34th position. Up next for the No. 27 team is next Sunday's Sprint Cup Series race at Pocono Raceway.
Start - 29th Finish - 34th Laps Led - 0 Points - 16th
"It seemed like we just couldn't catch a break today. The Moen/Menards Chevy was pretty fast in race trim all weekend. We were going to have a hard time gaining track position since we started in the back, but didn't get any favors there. I think we will still be okay in the Chase, but today definitely didn't help. We will just look forward now and try to get them in Pocono."
Ryan Newman and the Quicken Loans Racing Crew Finish 11th at Indianapolis Motor Speedway
Ryan Newman drove Richard Childress Racing's No. 31 Quicken Loans Chevrolet SS to an 11th-place finish in Sunday's 160-lap event at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The South Bend, Ind., driver started fourth and raced in the top 10 during the opening stages of the event. Crew chief Luke Lambert called the No. 31 onto pit road for a series of adjustments to neutralize the team's Chevy. By halfway, the team needed to regain some ground with Newman racing in the top 20 being tight at the start and loose at the end of a long run. A caution flag waved with 20 laps to go to set up a variety of pit strategies. Lambert called the No. 31 in for two-right side tires. Newman restarted 18th and raced to an 11th-place finish. Newman's top-15 finish moves the team up to seventh in the standings. The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series competes next Sunday at Pocono Raceway, where the No. 31 team produced a seventh-place finish in the last race there.
Start - 4th Finish - 11th Laps Led - 0 Points - 7th
"Track position was everything. We got behind there about halfway. I think I know what this car needs to run faster in traffic. We had the speed, but the dirty air killed it. We might turn this Chevrolet around and race it next weekend in Pocono. I have some ideas and we'll get back to the shop and work it all out. We definitely had a Quicken Loans Chevy capable of winning again at Indy. We just got behind there a bit and ran out of time. I'm proud of everyone on this Quicken Loans team, RCR and ECR Engines. We had the speed today."

Find the best Garages and Car Repairs in Salford with Who Can Fix My Car.
Unsatisfied, they left a can of Pepsi in the engine. Also I was called to take the car back the next morning as they forgot to tighten couple of screws in the suspension. Unacceptable. Clearly a rushed job.
nice man,and excellent service.
The guys were friendly and got the job done very quick. My car failed the MOT previously, but after they repaired it, it just passed.
Excellent service i will use them again .
Great friendly staff. MoT and tyre change was done professionally.
Whilst the service was done promptly, they did not stanp my service book and they didnt complete a further peice of work requested (and was more than willing to pay for). Not received a single call back since ..although have left 3 or 4 messages. Really dissapointed as initial work was good, just terrible after service care.
great service, great price.
Great service apart from forgetting tools but sorted in the end, will use again
Mechanic was punctual and very freindly and helpful , was happy to explain everything to me, this is the 2nd time ive used this company and cant recommend enough 10/10
Would recommended fast friendly good service
Great service from amanda and the team
They are very professional, I'm happy
Great service - managed to fit me in really quickly. Polite, organised and very professional. Comfortable waiting room and kept me up to date with what was happening and how long it will take/cost. Extremely happy with the work and service.
Absolutely brilliant service. Amanda was superb, rearranging my appointment to suit my schedule in an efficient and friendly manner. The fitting team not only fitted the exhaust, but showed me to the waiting room and tuned in the TV whilst I waited for the car. Would certainly recommend A&G garages. Thanks.
Friendly and informative service before agreeing to the work. Car repair was super quick and fuss free. I would recommend.
Fantastic, turned up on time and did everything that was asked!
I used click mechanic previously and had a very poor experience. I was cynical about using who can fix my car. However, the two sites are worlds apart. Excellent quote and excellent customer service. I used sk1 autos and mobile repairs. Brilliant gararge. Lee from the garage was trustworthy and helpful throughout. I would highly recommend the site and in particular sk1 autos. If youre thinking of using another quote site, don't. Use who can fix my car.
phoned him to book my car in for service he never turned up at his unit when we finally made contact he said that the booking hadn't been confirmed by who can fix my car very strange seeing that I arranged day and time with him personally.why doesn't just admit he forgot.wellsy
I can't recommend this garage enough. First impressions was it's a tidy little garage tucked away just outside the centre of Stockport in middle hill gate. It's very clean and the lads were very friendly and clearly knowledgeable. They took time to explain to me what they were doing were good to chat to. Not only did the re-gass my aircon whilst I waited they topped up the oil too. Not only was my air-con ineffective before but it was also noisy. Its now very quiet and very very cold. Thanks Lee! You'll be getting all my work from now on and I'll be recommending you to my friends.
Very professional, unfortunately didn't have the socket for my spark plugs, but changed the coilpacks anyway and even fitted a rear light I was waiting to fit, free of charge! Very happy and would use again.
Very satisfied with the work and car now drives really well. There was an additional problem found during clutch replacement which was dealt with swiftly. Very competitive price and really nice people to deal with. Would definitely use again.
Did a good job on clutch very happy with Sarah who helped sort job out only downside is communication on the day of collection as no one answered phones leaving me to start looking for another garage but overall a good job and happy with the service!!
Unfortunately they never came to collect my car as arranged, didn't reply to my messages or calls for 2 days and then offered no apology when I finally contacted them. If there was an issue somebody should have contacted me to arrange an alternative time and it would mean I didn't have to waste a whole weekend over this. Very disappointing customer service and makes me wonder if a site such as this is worth using!
Highly recommended!! Lovely people and so helpful and the advice given was great. Unlike most garages these were there to help me not to get money out of me and I carnt thank them enough will definitely be using this garage in the future!!
Gave us a very good price for the work we had done. Took longer than they said initially but it was a big job. Happy with the work.
They work very well!
Cool, all fine
Excellent service and MOT including collection and delivery highly recommend Sarah Delta Works Ltd Thankyou.
Absolutely so delighted with the service!! The gentleman was so helpful and informative about my
Friendly staff. Great service and most importantly honest... which is one thing you hope for when going to a mechanic. They never over charged or pretendended anything was wrong which needed fixing

Care at a Respected Medical Facility
For Murray-Calloway County Hospital (MCCH), taking health care new places means growth. In 2003, MCCH added seven new physicians to the staff; added several new outpatient services, including a new MRI suite; and is in the process of looking at an expansion project.
Murray Calloway County Hospital is a public, nonprofit community hospital located in Murray on Poplar Street. There are 67 physicians representing approximately 28 specialties. MCCH employs nearly 1,100 people and has 105 acute care beds and 226 long-term care beds.
MCCH began as the 65-bed William Mason Memorial Hospital, which was established in 1910 and served the community until 1947. At that time, Murray Hospital Association Inc. purchased Mason Hospital and changed the name to Murray Hospital. This name changed to Murray Calloway County Hospital in April 1964 when the present facility opened.
The hospital provides a full-service outpatient pharmacy, a home medical equipment service, an in-house blood bank, the Wellness Center, the Cancer Center, the Child Care Center, the Center for Sleep Studies, the Center for Wound Management, the Diabetes Center, the Community Healthcare Foundation and an active volunteer service program, along with numerous monthly community education programs.
MCCH prides itself in providing quality care to its patients and has been consistently recognized for this through patient surveys. MCCH is a member of Press Ganey, the leader in providing health care satis faction measurement and improvement, and ranks above the average for Press Ganey reporting hospitals in guest satisfaction.
Part of that guest satisfaction is attributed to outstanding physicians as well as the latest in diagnostic and treatment technology. With the purchase of the stationary MRI, MCCH acquired the Cardiac MRI software package.
"Cardiac MRI is used to specifically diagnose specific heart problems," says Kwabena Agyman, M.D. "This same type of technology is being offered at world-class facilities across the country."
The Center for Diabetes at MCCH is the only center in the region that has two Certified Diabetes Educators on staff, one who is a Registered Dietitian and one who is a Registered Nurse. "At the Center for Diabetes, our mission is to help patients with diabetes learn more about their disease," says Tara Shelton, Diabetes Educator. "Our program is also recognized by the American Diabetes Association, which assures we are offering high-quality education for our patients." The Center for Diabetes offers many programs to help those with diabetes as well as their families, including monthly Diabetes Self-Management Classes, Shopping Smart for Diabetes, insulin pump initiation, nail debriement (trimmings) and Continuous Glucose Monitoring system.
A new physician on the MCCH staff is Dr. Jirgis Shah, who specializes in pulmonary medicine, critical care medicine and sleep medicine. Dr. Shah began practicing in October 2003 and is excited to be in the Murray community. Dr. Shah is a diplomat of the American Board of Internal Medicine and the American Board of Sleep Medicine. Shah's practice, The Four Rivers Lung and Sleep Clinic, is located in the Medical Arts Building on 8th Street in Murray. "I will be working closely with the hospital's Center for Sleep Studies and look forward to serving the people of this region," states Shah.
The Center for Sleep Studies addresses "problem sleepiness," sleepiness that interferes with daily routines and activities or reduces the ability to function. Problem sleepiness occurs when patients don't get enough sleep because of primary sleep disorders (such as obstructive sleep apnea, insomnia, restless legs syndrome or narcolepsy), other medical conditions (such as chronic bronchitis or congestive heart failure) or lifestyle factors (such as shift work).
Sleep studies conducted at the Center provide doctors with information about how patients breathe and sleep, which enables doctors to determine the type and severity of sleep disorders as well as treatment options.
To schedule an appointment at the MCCH Center for Sleep Studies, call (270) 767-0286.
The Center for Wound Management is providing the newest in wound care under the direction of a qualified team consisting of physicians, certified wound specialists, a certified manual lymph drainage therapist, physical therapists and assistants, and dietitians. The staff will work closely with the patient's physician to tailor a plan of care. This plan will be a treatment program based on the patient's special needs. The program will include regular visits to the Center for Wound Management to provide treatment, evaluate progress and make any changes that might be needed.

George Allen today released the following statement regarding Congress' bipartisan vote requiring the Obama Administration to outline defense cut details:
"I commend Democrats and Republicans in Congress for requiring a detailed account of the looming cuts that disproportionately target our military," said George Allen. "The Obama Administration owes the people of Virginia a transparent plan of how they would make these devastating cuts. I opposed this deal from the beginning because it takes half the cuts from our nation's paramount responsibility of national defense, potentially devastating our military, families and jobs in Virginia. Leadership is about setting priorities, and I urge Congress to act swiftly to reverse these cuts that are placing over 200,000 Virginia jobs, our national security and our military men and women at risk."

Sharon Osbourne battling bulimia
Page Tools
Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne.
Sharon Osbourne, wife of rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, has confessed she is battling bulimia.
The reality TV star says she regularly vomits up her food, often in front of her three children, and admits she needs professional help.
She told Britain's Daily Mail newspaper: "I still have bulimia, Ozzy knows and the kids - my God, how could they not. It's the thing that causes most arguments.
"We'll be at the dinner table and I'll go off and they'll say, 'Oh, here we go again.' They hate it."
The 52-year-old also revealed she had her stomach stapled in the hope it would help her beat the potentially-fatal illness, which she has battled for all of her adult life.
She added: "I've tried to stop it. I thought when I got my stomach done, it would cure it. It hasn't. It just means I can't eat as much. I still binge. If I'm under stress, I hit the biscuits and the crisps and the bread.
"I cram it in - eat, eat, eat - until I physically can't get any more into my body. The food is piled up to my throat.
"Then I have to be sick. I don't even have to make myself sick. It's automatic."
Sharon says her three children, Aimee, Kelly and Jack, are desperately worried about her health and want her to get it sorted out. She revealed: "I will get help. I have to do something, I know."

A few notes to begin...
I ONLY print my own designs and do not print other peoples work/designs for them. I only take on letterpress work (no silkscreen or digital). My minimum number of pieces for printing is 50 I am afraid I am unable to take on projects any smaller than this.
Make sure you take a look at the Custom Gallery Page to see the kind of work that I design. I enjoy nothing more than drawing nature inspired, whimsical and colorful work. If that sounds like your cup of tea then I am the right fit for you!
I illustrate all work specifically for each client (the cost of this is included in the pricing you see below) - making it a very special option for your event. I letterpress print with rubber based inks on 100% cotton, tree-free paper.
Step 1: Before contacting me to make an appointment, please have a look at the pricing below to be sure that Foxy & Winston is within budget for your project.
Step 2: To schedule your one-hour in person design meeting in our Red Hook, Brooklyn Shop, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com. Please be courteous and let me know if you are unable to make it or need to re-schedule.
Step 3: During our meeting we'll discuss ink, type and paper choices. We will look over our letterpress samples in person and talk about the process. Please come with some of your design inspirations in hand (if you have them). A great and helpful way to share your ideas with us is to create a Pinterest Board!
Step 4: I will create a custom quote based on our discussion and email you the information within 24 hours of our meeting. When you are ready to proceed, I email you a contract outlining the details and alerting you to all terms and conditions, timeline, process and details we've discussed. Please sign and return the contract with a 50% non-refundable deposit. I require a deposit before I begin the design process. In the event that you decide AFTER your appointment, that Foxy & Winston is NOT a good fit for your project then please take the trouble to email: firstname.lastname@example.com We like good manners around here!
Step 5: You will receive your first round of proofs within 2-3 weeks of deposit. Any slight changes (type, text, color) will be made without charge. Any major changes (re-draw, recreate) will incur a $30.00 charge per change. You can email during this process with any questions you have at all - I am here to answer them!
Step 6: You will have your invitations/stationery in hand within 6-8 weeks of deposit. Then, you'll be ready to address, stamp and mail your invitations!
