Rowlett Angler Catches Latest Toyota ShareLunker
Fish could be new Lake Palestine record
ATHENS—Lake Palestine produced its second Toyota ShareLunker in less than a year Saturday when Casey Laughlin of Rowlett pulled in a 13.22-pound bass while fishing a Media Bass tournament.
Initially weighed at 13.02 pounds by tournament officials, the fish came in at 13.22 pounds when reweighed on the official ShareLunker program certified scale. The difference was significant, since it made the fish eligible to be submitted as the new record for Lake Palestine. The fish was 26.25 inches long and 20.75 inches in girth. It is now Toyota ShareLunker 554.
Laughlin's fish wrapped his line around a tree, and he and his partner had to move the boat to free it. "When I set the hook I thought I had hooked a tree," Laughlin said. "Actually I did. She had wrapped the line around one. We moved the boat to try to free it, and when we did she came right to the boat."
The two catches confirm the opinion of the lake voiced by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) fisheries biologist Richard Ott in Texas Parks & Wildlife magazine's February digital issue. "Everything just seems to 'get going'a little faster in the spring on this reservoir," he said. "The reservoir has seen little fluctuation over this past year, allowing for good development of shallow-water aquatic plants such as coontail and pondweed. Bass fishing really heats up on this lake in February, even with water temperatures around 50 degrees, and only gets better through March."
Laughlin caught his fish from eight to 10 feet of 50-degree water on the north end of the lake near Kickapoo Creek using a Zoom Speed Craw. Once again Ott had called it: "The far upper end, particularly the Kickapoo Creek and Neches River arms, heats up first," he said. "Bass start to fatten up prior to the spawn and can be readily caught on spinnerbaits and chatterbaits across the large flats of these two arms. You can often find them really stacked into the creek channels winding their way through these flats, especially on the colder days. I would not be surprised to see more ShareLunkers come from this lake."
The current Lake Palestine water body record of 13.14 pounds was set by Lindell Booth in 2013. Booth was also fishing in a Media Bass tournament, also near Kickapoo Creek in eight feet of water. He recorded the water temperature as 49 degrees. Booth's fish, Toyota ShareLunker 545, is on display in the dive tank at the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center in Athens.
Anyone legally catching a 13-pound or bigger largemouth bass from Texas waters, public or private, between October 1 and April 30 may submit the fish to the Toyota ShareLunker program. Fish will be picked up by TPWD personnel within 12 hours.
The number to call to report a ShareLunker catch is (903) 681-0550. If poor cell phone service prevents use of the voice number, anglers can leave a phone number (including area code) at (888) 784-0600.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 10/2/2013 (1655 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
An investigation is underway into the plane crash near Waskada that killed as many people Sunday as all the deadly flights in Manitoba last year.
The wreckage was strewn over a large stretch of farmer's field in southwestern Manitoba, said Peter Hildebrand, regional manager with the Transportation Safety Board.
RCMP confirmed today the 37 year-old pilot, his sons, ages nine and 10, and another nine-year-old boy died in the crash.
While the RCMP have not identified the victims, residents said the victims were pilot Darren Spence and his sons Gage, 10, and Logan, 9, as well as another nine-year-old boy, Dawson Pentecost, who was a family friend.
The downed aircraft was spotted at around 7 p.m. yesterday. The crash scene is reported to be in an open field about 10 kilometres north of Waskada, which itself is located 300 kilometres southwest of Winnipeg near the Saskatchewan and North Dakota borders.
Crash investigators will be looking at the 1963 plane's maintenance records, the pilot, and weather conditions, Hildebrand said.
"The pilot was reported to have a valid licence and medical certificate," said Hildebrand. It isn't yet known whether the "relatively young" pilot had "instrumentation rating" and could operate the plane using instruments if visibility was limited, he said.
Hildebrand said there was 1.2 kilometres visibility at the time, with a 600-foot cloud ceiling light mist, freezing fog and icing conditions.
The plane's emergency locator went off 17 minutes after the plane departed, likely on impact. The wreckage was found almost five kilometres from the point of departure, a private air strip near Waskada.
The plane was en route to Brandon, said Hildebrand, who would not release any details about the crash victims. Their job is to find out what happened -- and if the crash was preventable, how to try and make sure such an accident doesn't happen again, he said.
"This is obviously a tragedy," Hildebrand said.
In all of 2012, four people died in three fatal airplane crashes in Manitoba. This one fatal accident has already matched that.
"It must be devastating for the people who knew them," he said. "It affects everybody."
Pleasure flight reported overdue
Darren Spence was involved in a family crop-spraying business. But it's believed he had taken the boys on a pleasure flight Sunday afternoon aboard a Cessna 210. By 6 p.m., RCMP were notified the plane was overdue.
The plane was found with the help of Canadian Forces search and rescue technicians, according to RCMP from the Killarney detachment.
"It's a pretty rough day around here," said one man in the community this morning. He had known Spence for about six years, mostly through work at a chemical company that supplied the mixture for crop dusting.
The man, who did not want his name used, said Spence was always friendly, taking time to make others feel at ease with a kind word or friendly smile.
Meanwhile, a spokesman with the 17 Wing air base in Winnipeg confirmed search and rescue technicians from 435 Squadron from Winnipeg parachuted to the crash scene.
Family well-known in close-knit community
Residents in the small community of Waskada are stunned and in mourning.
The three boys are students of Waskada School, and a sign outside the building this morning said: 'Forever in our hearts Dawson Gage Logan Darren.'
Counsellors specializing in grief and mental health are at the ready at Waskada School as it attempts to come to grips with losing three of its own. The counsellors were in place by 8 a.m. today, as children in the K-12 school arrived for the day.
"We're fielding calls from parents who have just informed their children (about the plane crash). The school is open as a counselling service right now. It may be like that for the rest of the week," said Brian Spurrill, secretary treasurer with Southwest Horizon School Division.
He said losing three young boys, one each in Grade 4, 5 and 6, is tragic both for the community and the school division.
"It's all very new for us. We certainly haven't dealt with anything of this magnitude before," he said. "It's a very close-knit community, a great community school. Our hearts go out to the parents of the one family and to the grandparents of the other family."
Late Sunday night, Waskada Mayor Gary Williams said news of the horrific crash was just beginning to spread.
"It's going to be tough," he said. "... once Monday comes and people start their normal day, their normal routines, it's going to be a real shock.
"(The boys) went to a small school, and every kid sees the other kids every day," he said, adding the family is well known in the community.
Five-hour delay from emergency signal
According to a spokesman with the Transportation Safety Board, there was a more than five-hour delay from when the aircraft first sent out an emergency locator transmitter signal and when the wreckage was finally found.
Peter Hildebrand, regional manager of the TSB's central region, said the signal started at 1:17 p.m. on Sunday but because it was an older model and didn't carry any information about the owner, investigators had to verify that the signal wasn't malfunctioning.
After the delay, the Air Force sent out a C-130 to investigate. It discovered the downed Cessna 210-C "around 6 or 7 p.m." about 10 kilometres north of town.
Hildebrand said the signal, referred to as an "ELT" in industry parlance, can be activated in the air by the pilot but it is most commonly set off upon impacting the ground.
"It has an impact switch, which sends out the signal automatically. What happened here, we don't know," Hildebrand said.
Once activated, the signal is picked up via satellite by the Air Force rescue coordination centre in Trenton, Ont., which then relays the details to local authorities.
The length of the TSB investigation will depend largely on what they find. Hildebrand cautioned that they don't always do full investigations on accidents involving private aircraft.
"What we're looking for is to advance transportation safety. With a private aircraft, there is less risk to the travelling public. Technical issues and issues of operational control, those are more for commercial (aircraft). Sometimes the facts are very clear and further investigation wouldn't bring about any improvement to the transportation system," he said.
The Cessna 210 Centurion is a six-seat, high-performance, retractable-gear single-engine general aviation aircraft which was first flown in January 1957 and produced by Cessna until 1985.

Tell Me About the Creation
The Tale of Man's Evolution
Just like evolutionists' other claims on the origin of life forms, their claim about the origin of man has likewise no scientific basis. Discoveries show that "the evolution of man" is simply a tale.
Darwin put forward his claim that human beings and monkeys descended from a common ancestor in his book The Descent of Man published in 1871. From that time onwards, the followers of Darwin have tried to bolster this claim. But despite all the research that has been carried out, the claim of "human evolution" has not been backed up by any concrete scientific discovery, particularly in the fossil field.
The man in the street is for the most part unaware of this fact, and thinks that the claim of human evolution is supported by a great deal of firm evidence. The reason for this incorrect opinion is that the subject is frequently discussed in the media and presented as a proven fact.
But real experts on the subject are aware that the claim of "human evolution" has no scientific foundation. David Pilbeam, one of Harvard University's palaeontologists, says the following:
And William Fix, the author of an important book on the subject of palaeoanthropology, makes this comment:
This claim of evolution, which "lacks any evidence," starts the human family tree with a species of monkey called Australopithecus. According to the claim, Australopithecus began to walk upright over time, his brain grew, and passed through a series of stages to come to man's present state (Homo sapiens.) But the fossil record does not back up this scenario. Despite the claim of all kinds of intermediate forms, there is an impassable barrier between the fossil remains respectively of man and monkeys. Furthermore, it has been revealed that the species which are portrayed as each others' ancestors are actually contemporary species that lived in the same period. Ernst Mayr, one of the most important proponents of the theory of evolution in the 20th century, accepts this truth: "The chain reaching as far as Homo sapiens is actually lost."47

Honey Bees and Colony Collapse Disorder
Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) is a serious problem threatening the health of honey bees and the economic stability of commercial beekeeping and pollination operations in the United States. Despite a number of claims in the general and scientific media, a cause or causes of CCD have not been identified by researchers.
The Agricultural Research Service (ARS), USDA's internal research agency, is leading several efforts into possible CCD causes and striving to enhance overall honey bee health by improving bee management practices, as well as studying honey bee diseases and parasites and how best to control them. In addition, a number of other Federal agencies and State departments of agriculture, universities, and private companies are conducting studies to seek the cause or causes of CCD.
CCD HistoryIn October 2006, some beekeepers began reporting losses of 30-90 percent of their hives. While colony losses are not unexpected, especially over the winter, this magnitude of losses was unusually high.
The main symptom of CCD is very low or no adult honey bees present in the hive but with a live queen and no dead honey bee bodies present. Often there is still honey in the hive, and immature bees (brood) are present. Varroa mites, a virus-transmitting parasite of honey bees, have frequently been found in hives hit by CCD.
This is not the first time that beekeepers are being faced with unexplained losses. The scientific literature has several mentions of honey bee disappearances—in the 1880s, the 1920s, and the 1960s. While the descriptions sound similar to CCD, there is no way to know for sure if those problems were caused by the same agents as CCD.
There have also been unusual colony losses before. In 1903, in the Cache Valley in Utah, 2000 colonies were lost to an unknown "disappearing disease" after a "hard winter and a cold spring." More recently, in 1995-96, Pennsylvania beekeepers lost 53 percent of their colonies without a specific identifiable cause.
In June 2007, ARS and the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA), USDA's extramural research grants agency, co-chaired a workshop of scientists and stakeholders to develop a Colony Collapse Disorder Action Plan. This plan identified areas where more information was needed and developed a research priority list for additional research projects related to finding the cause/causes of CCD.
Why Should the Public Care About What Happens to Honey Bees? Bee pollination is responsible for more than $15 billion in increased crop value each year. About one mouthful in three in our diet directly or indirectly benefits from honey bee pollination. Commercial production of many specialty crops like almonds and other tree nuts, berries, fruits and vegetables depend on pollination by honey bees. These are the foods that give our diet diversity, flavor, and nutrition.
Honey bees are not native to the New World; they came from Europe with the first settlers. There are native pollinators in the United States, but honey bees are more prolific and easier to manage on a commercial level for pollination of a wide variety of crops. Almonds, for example, are completely dependent on honey bees for pollination. In California, the almond industry requires the use of 1.4 million colonies of honey bees, approximately 60 percent of all managed honey bee colonies in the United States.
U.S. Honey Bee LossesThe total number of managed honey bee colonies has decreased from 5 million in the 1940s to only 2.5 million today. At the same time, the call for hives to provide pollination services has continued to increase. This means honey bee colonies are being transported over longer distances than ever before.
Declines in honey bee colony health were exacerbated in the 1980s with the arrival of new pathogens and pests. The arrival of Varroa and tracheal mites into the United States during the 1990s created additional stresses on honey bees.
Colony losses from CCD are a very serious problem for beekeepers. Annual losses from the winter of 2006-2011 averaged about 33 percent each year, with a third of these losses attributed to CCD by beekeepers. The winter of 2011-2012 was an exception, when total losses dropped to 22 percent.
A 1-year drop is too short a time period to count as definitive improvement in honey bee colony survivorship. At least 2 to 3 years of consistently lower loss percentages is necessary before it is possible to be sure that CCD is on the decline.
The decrease in colony losses could be due to a number of different factors, among them:
If losses continue at the 33 percent level, it could threaten the economic viability of the bee pollination industry. Honey bees would not disappear entirely, but the cost of honey bee pollination services would rise, and those increased costs would ultimately be passed on to consumers through higher food costs. Now is the time for research into the cause and treatment of CCD before CCD becomes an agricultural crisis.
Research DirectionsScientists are looking in four general categories for the cause/causes of CCD:
A survey of honey bee colonies revealed no consistent pattern in pesticide levels between healthy and CCD-affected colonies when pollen, bees, and beeswax were tested for the presence of 170 pesticides. The most commonly found pesticide in that study was coumaphos, which is used to treat honey bees for Varroa mites.
The pesticide class neonicotinoids (clothianidin, thiamethoxam, and imidacloprid) has been accused of being the cause of CCD. The neonicotinoids were developed in the mid-1990s in large part because they showed reduced toxicity to honey bees, compared with previously used organophosphate and carbamate insecticides.
In 2008, Germany revoked the registration of the neonicotinoid clothianidin for use on seed corn after an incident that resulted in the die-off of hundreds of nearby honey bees colonies. Investigation into the incident revealed that the die-off was caused by a combination of factors, including the failure to use a polymer seed coating known as a "sticker": weather conditions that resulted in late planting of corn while nearby canola crops were in bloom, attracting honey bees; use of a particular type of air-driven equipment used to sow the seeds, which blew clothianidin-laden dust off the seeds and into the air as the seeds were ejected from the machine into the ground; dry and windy conditions at the time of planting, which blew the dust into the nearby canola fields where honey bees were foraging; and a higher application rate than had been authorized was used to treat for a severe root worm infestation.
Several studies that reported a negative impact on honey bees by neonicotinoids relied on large, unrealistic doses and gave bees no other choice for pollen, and therefore did not reflect risk to honey bees under real world conditions. Nor have the studies demonstrated a direct connection or correlation to CCD.
There have been scientific findings that imply that neonicotinoids have sublethal effects on honey bees at approved doses and exposures. ARS scientists and other researchers are looking into whether such sublethal effects may correlate with CCD or other bee health problems and whether they could be a contributing cause of CCD.
ARS held a workshop with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in early 2010 to discuss how potential sublethal effects could be documented summarized in Pesticide Risk Assessment for Pollinators: Summary of a SETAC Pellston Workshop.
ARS researchers also have been analyzing samples from healthy and CCD-struck colonies and applying a variety of stressors from the four categories of possible causes to colonies in hopes of provoking a colony response that duplicates CCD.
While a number of potential causes have been championed by a variety of researchers and interest groups, none of them have stood up to detailed scrutiny. Every time a claim is made of finding a "smoking gun," further investigation has not been able to make the leap from a correlation to cause-and-effect. Other times, not even a scientific correlation has been demonstrated in the study claiming to have found "the cause" of CCD.
Researchers have concluded that no one factor is the cause of CCD. Most likely, CCD is caused by multiple factors. It is not possible to know at this time if all CCD incidents are due to the same set of factors or if the factors follow the same sequence in every case.
One explanation for CCD being studied is that a perfect storm of environmental stresses may unexpectedly weaken colonies, leading to collapse when the colonies are exposed to the additional stress of a pathogen, parasite, and/or pesticide. Stress, in general, compromises the immune system of bees (and other social insects) and may disrupt their social system, making colonies more susceptible to disease.
Studies are being conducted by ARS scientists and collaborators to look at the combined impact of two or more factors on honey bees—most recently the impact of exposure to the neonicotinoid imidacloprid and Nosema. While the dual exposure indicated some sublethal effects on individual honey bees, the overall health of the colony did not show an adverse effect.
Cell Phones and CCDDespite a great deal of attention having been paid to the idea, neither cell phones nor cell phone towers have been shown to have any connection to CCD or poor honey bee health.
Originally, the idea was provoked by the media making a connection between CCD and a very small study done in Germany. But that study looked at whether a particular type of base station for cordless phones could affect honey bee homing systems. However, despite all the attention that this study has received, the base station has nothing to do with CCD. Stefan Kimmel, the researcher who conducted the study and wrote the paper, e-mailed The Associated Press to say that there is "no link between our tiny little study and the CCD-phenomenon … Anything else said or written is a lie."
In addition, apiaries are often located in rural areas, where cell phone coverage can be spotty. This makes cell phones or cell towers unlikely culprits.
Best Recommendation for BeekeepersSince little is known for sure about the cause(s) of CCD, mitigation must be based on improving general honey bee health and habitat and countering known mortality factors by using best management practices. This includes supplemental feeding in times of nectar/pollen scarcity.
Best Recommendations for the PublicThe best action the public can take to improve honey bee survival is not to use pesticides indiscriminately. In particular, the public should avoid applying pesticides during mid-day hours, when honey bees are most likely to be out foraging for nectar and pollen on flowering plants.
In addition, the public can plant pollinator-friendly plants—plants that are good sources of nectar and pollen such as red clover, foxglove, bee balm, joe-pye weed, and other native plants. (For more information, visit www.nappc.org.)

Just got my CG a couple weeks ago and "initiated" it with some good ol' pork country ribs. This is my first time cooking them on the smoker. I've always done them in the oven.
They turned out fabulous, so I thought I would share the recipe with the community. Here's what I did:
Got 2 lbs of country ribs cut at Krogers about 2" thick (I'm good friends w/ the meat dept. manager there). The ones they sell on the shelf are not thick enough in my opinion for smokin'
The night before: sprayed them a 50/50 mix of jack daniels and apple juice, rubbed them down with my rub, let them sit overnight.
The next day: Pulled them from fridge, hit them again with the rub. Let them sit out to reach room temp while I fired up the CG.
Used a mix of hickory and apple chunks. Smoked at 225-250 for 1 1/2 hours naked turning once after 45 min.
Mopped again with a little more jack and apple juice. Wrapped in foil, smoked approx another 1 1/2 hrs. maintaining between 225-250
Unwrapped from foil. Placed back on smoker naked for the final 30 min of cooking. Cranked vents wide open, removed water pans. Temp climbed a little to about 265 deg. Hit them with Stubbs BBQ sauce during last 15 min. Pulled from smoker and let rest about 10 minutes.
Delicious ....Sorry I didn't get any pics. I will next time.

Errors help to halt Royals' win streak at four
Offense struggles after promising three-run first inning in series opener
KANSAS CITY -- Three errors in the first three innings and going out 1-2-3 in seven of the nine innings did not make for a good mathematical equation for the Royals.
So down went the streaking Royals, their four-game spurt ended by the Toronto Blue Jays, 8-4, on a chilly Friday night with 13,049 fans at Kauffman Stadium. The Royals had won six of their previous seven games.
"We couldn't get anything going," manager Ned Yost said.
Not after the first inning, that is. The Royals came up with three runs against Blue Jays left-hander J.A. Happ with two walks and three hits, the last a two-run single by Lorenzo Cain.
Meantime, the Blue Jays were scoring five runs in the first three innings against right-hander Luis Mendoza, aided by three Royals' errors. That matched the number of errors they had in all of their previous nine games.
"We made some great plays," Yost countered. "We made a great play on the relay on the ball [Mark] DeRosa hit in the left-center-field gap, [Alcides] Escobar made some great plays up the middle, Elliot Johnson made a great play on [Emilio] Bonifacio going up the middle and a nice play on a popup. And then we made some plays that weren't so pretty."
Exactly. Two throwing errors were charged to catcher Salvador Perez. One came on a stolen base in the first inning, which ended with J.P. Arencibia's run-scoring single and Adam Lind's double. In the second inning, after Colby Rasmus and Bonifacio hit back-to-back doubles, Perez tried to nail Bonifacio advancing to third and misfired. Bonifacio scored for a 4-3 Toronto lead.
The third inning began with Royals third baseman Mike Moustakas throwing the ball far over first baseman Miguel Tejada. Edwin Encarnacion was safe and scored later on Lind's sacrifice fly, and it was 5-3.
"We threw the ball around a little bit and that happens on occasion, but you won't see it very often with us," Yost said.
The Royals though still had hope when they picked up another run against Happ in the fifth inning on Johnson's bunt single, his stolen base and Escobar's single.
"If it's 5-4, you feel like you've got a shot," right fielder Jeff Francoeur said. "Then we went down in order pretty quick after that."
Did they ever. Billy Butler drew a walk, but Blue Jays manager John Gibbons stuck with Happ and he retired both Perez and Moustakas.
"It was nice to keep the lead and great to have the faith of the manager in that case," Happ said.
Then the Blue Jays' bullpen, Sergio Santos and Aaron Loup, took over and put the Royals down in order in the last four innings. In all, the Royals' last 14 batters in the game went out like candles on a birthday cake.
Meanwhile, the Blue Jays added three runs in the sixth inning, although it was costly for them. Shortstop Jose Reyes sustained a sprained left ankle going into second base and was being examined further. Initial reports were that he could be out from four weeks to three months.
Mendoza was having trouble keeping his breaking pitches down and, along with two walks in the sixth, he gave up doubles to DeRosa and Bonifacio.
There was a brief reprieve when, on DeRosa's double, Lind was thrown out at the plate, center fielder Cain to shortstop Escobar to catcher Perez. But he walked Rasmus and up came Bonifacio.
"I got to Bonifacio and I just left the pitch in the middle. It has to be in the dirt and I just left it for a strike," Mendoza said. "That was the killer."
That double made the score, 6-4, and left runners at second and third, bringing Luke Hochevar out of the bullpen. His 2-1 pitch was belted by Reyes for a two-run single and the final 8-4 score.
After that, Hochevar pitched 2 1/3 innings without further incident and racked up five strikeouts.
"The Reyes at-bat was the glaring at-bat. You look at his line -- 2 1/3 innings, one hit, one walk, five punch-outs," Yost said, "but the Reyes at-bat will be the one everybody remembers."
What Reyes and the Blues Jays will remember is that he jammed his ankle as he stole second base, a former batting champion and four-time All-Star likely headed for the disabled list.
"They said he slid too late. When I saw the play, I thought 'Oh, man, something happened,'" Escobar said. "I asked him, 'How you feeling? You good?' He said, 'I can feel my left side and my leg hurts a lot.' When that happens, I feel bad too. He's a really good guy."

About the Artist
English artist and author Rory Tyger grew up in the wilds of beautiful Exmoor, but now lives and works in North London. Rory wanted to be a pop star and started illustrating in his late 20s after realising he wasn't going to make a successful career in the music biz. "I was discovered by default - actually it was Newton who was discovered, and not me! I wanted to create a bear that had personality - someone you could feel real empathy with. In the past I have drawn many 'teddy bears' and they've all been plump and fluffy and cute just like so many other anonymous bears. With Newton I wanted him to have a brain, a voice and a story behind him. As soon as Newton appeared in books he started to become popular and I had my work cut out trying to keep up with him. When I was a child my favourite character was Herge's Tintin, and of course I also loved all the Disney classics and timeless things like Wind in the Willows".

Amazing room makeovers.
10 Rooms You Never Knew You Needed
The most amazing room makeovers we've ever seen.More
The small dining room area off of the kitchen needed a stylish, modern look. Designer Abbe Fenimore added dark espresso hardwood floors, updated the lighting fixture, and brought in a color palette of black and white with pops of turquoise and yellow. She also added a glass-top table and metal dining chairs upholstered in turquoise Ikat fabric.
Oak cabinets and little light made the liveliest space in the home the least appealing. Designer Emily Hewett added a new island for extra counter space and added decorative feet and raised end panels to give it more of a furniture feel. All the appliances were replaced and upper glass-front cabinets were added for more storage and to balance the large window.

Dry eye syndrome (keratoconjunctivitis sicca) occurs when the tear
glands do not make enough tears or when too many tears evaporate from the surface of your eye. This causes your eyes to feel itchy, scratchy,
and irritated. It is more common in older adults and in those with autoimmune
diseases, such as arthritis.
Wearing contact lenses may increase
your risk for dry eye syndrome. Dry eyes also may be caused by certain
medicines, such as antidepressants, antihistamines, and diuretics.
To help soothe your dry eyes, you can try an over-the-counter lubricant eye drop (artificial tears solution), such as Hypo Tears or Systane. Do not use eyedrops that reduce redness (such as
Opcon-A) to treat dry eyes. You can also try to blink a lot, limit your time in air-conditioned or heated rooms, and use a humidifier in rooms where you spend a lot of time.
If you've used artificial tears for a few days and they don't seem to be helping, call your doctor.
Excessive dryness can damage your eyes. And your doctor may recommend other treatments, including:

BOSSES of a Colne firm have been given a six-year ban after their outfit was found to have raised false invoices and left their financiers nearly £550,000 out of pocket.
Administrators were called into Bellwoven, a textile label manufacturer based in New Market Street, Colne, in September 2011.
The Lancashire Telegraph reported in May that year how a copper piping thief had left them with a £100,000 bill.
And it has now emerged that from December 2010 and August 2011, according to the Insolvency Service (IS), the company had breached a factoring agreement with an unnamed finance firm.
Under the deal, 85 per cent of the value of invoices raised by the Colne company would be advanced to the company by the factoring business.
But the company later confirmed to insolvency investigators that they believed invoices totalling at least £218,663 were false.
And by the point of administration, the factoring company was owed £544,258, the difference between the advances and the repayments made by Bellwoven.
Bellwoven director Hans John Oliver Brabender, 42, of Skipton Road, Foulridge has now been disqualified as a company director, following the IS probe.
And fellow directors Helga Brabender and Hans Brabender, 72 and 73, both of Dunmore House, Strone, near Dunoon, were given similar disqualifications.
Finance director Steven Doney, 46, of Widdop Road, Hebden Bridge, was also banned from being a director for six years.
Insolvency officials say repayments had been made to factoring firm by a new company, in which the Brabenders and Doney were said to be involved, since the administration took place.
Hans Brabender and Mr Doney resigned as directors of Bellwoven Packaging last November, according to Companies House.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 5/9/2012 (1813 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Look, Buck Pierce would tell you he's ready to play while holding his helmet by his side -- with his head still inside it.
"It's like that old Monty Python movie where they chop off the arms, they chop off the legs -- that'd be Buck," Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach Tim Burke said with a laugh Wednesday.
The Black Knight, of course, famously waved off his injuries as just a "flesh wound" in the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Pierce, who has a similarly unique combination of ridiculous mental toughness combined with ridiculous physical frailty, is probably among the few people who doesn't get that infamous cinematic gag.
And so it is understandable the forgotten man in this forgettable Bombers season is frustrated and angry right now he is being prevented -- by injury and by the Bombers training staff -- for the seventh straight game from doing anything to help his beleaguered teammates.
If ever there was a club in need of a knight on a horse to ride in and save the day, it's this one. But this particular saviour -- if he even is that -- is still limping and not yet ready, at least according to the Bombers training staff, to ride again.
It is eating Pierce apart, as quickly became evident in an interview on Wednesday following practice, where the man who is the face of this franchise was reduced to the role of pretending to be Saskatchewan Roughriders QB Darian Durant for the Winnipeg defence to practise against.
"I've been frustrated for the last six weeks. Just because I'm not out there -- it frustrates the hell out of me," said Pierce. "I'm paid to do a job -- that's to be the quarterback of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. And if I can't do that, of course it's upsetting. Frustrated is an understatement. I'm not saying if I was out there, things would be different. I can't speak for anything like that.
"It's frustrating to watch. It's frustrating to be injured. Because I know some of the experience I can bring and some of the leadership qualities I can bring to this team."
Pierce has been sidelined with a foot injury since Week 3 and has been practising sporadically the past couple weeks, leading to speculation -- particularly after his team got thumped 52-0 in Regina last Sunday to fall to 2-7 -- that Pierce might be back at the controls this Sunday in the Banjo Bowl rematch.
But Burke quickly ruled out that possibility on Tuesday, saying Pierce isn't yet healthy enough to play and announcing Joey Elliott would get his fourth straight start.
"He's just not ready to go yet, but he's getting close," Burke said of Pierce. "It could be next week, I don't know."
Pierce was asked if he felt he was healthy enough to play.
"I always feel like I can go out and gut out a victory and help the team win in any way possible," Pierce replied. "Is it the smartest thing to do? I don't know. It's not my call -- that's the thing. It's not up to me. It hasn't been up to me ever. They've never once came to me, 'what's taking so long, what is it?' It's all been through the trainer. That's something they monitor, not me...
"It is what it is. They make those decisions. They're the coaches, I'm the player. I do what I'm told and I worry about the things that I can control and that's getting healthy and getting back and being ready to go when I am back. Am I angry? I'm angry we're 2-7. If I was healthy and I was feeling OK, it would be different. I'm frustrated because I can't contribute.
"But I'm not angry at anybody. It's just a tough situation."
The only thing that's been consistent in Elliott's play the last three weeks has been its regression in each game. Pierce's backup was asked Wednesday why fans should think this Sunday will somehow yield a different result.
"They just have to believe in us -- plain and simple," Elliott replied.

Even before the first model walked out in Scott Sternberg's solid spring show (held in a gritty lot underneath the Highline), the Band of Outsiders designer had placed himself firmly in the good graces of his audience by putting Momofuku cookies on all the chairs and burning Diptyque candles that smelled of grass and wildflowers. From anyone else, it might feel like a cheap ploy, but Sternberg's a.) a legitimate cookie freak (seriously, he has a blog devoted to the topic) and b.) a helplessly authentic individual helming a label that proves to be a consistently charming interlude between Alexander Wang and Altuzarra on the Saturday schedule.
This season, Sternberg took inspiration from Peter Weir's 1975 film Picnic at Hanging Rock, a story about the disappearance of a group of schoolgirls on Valentine's Day in 1900. In the designer's mind, they pop up in New York City wearing black boat hats with crisp white cotton poplin shirtdresses, navy wool coatdresses with raw edges, striped linen overalls, and dégradé toile du Jouy full apron skirts that fade from blue to black as if they'd been dragged through the streets as the lost girls wander Tenth Avenue. There was a lot of stark black and white here, as there has been almost everywhere, with hits of a deeply appealing green and a red stripe fabric. The coats—double-breasted, barn, military—were fantastic, and all that was just Boy. Sternberg also showed his Girl line, which was delightful in its femininity. An embroidered white cotton dress with spaghetti straps and full skirt could have made for a romantic nightgown, lazy summer afternoon look, or even a wedding dress for the Girl woman. Sternberg also explored evening here in a way he hasn't before, and although the pale, strapless georgette dress and pretty one-shouldered silk and tulle frock could work on a red carpet, they didn't look lost in the mix here.
This was Sternberg's second show after seasons of elaborate presentations. That still life set-up could have worked here too, but it'd have been a shame to skip the cookies.

OBERLIN, Ohio (AP) -- Students are speaking out against a secret "no trespass" list maintained by their northern Ohio college.
People who get on the list at Oberlin College find themselves barred from campus, which encompasses part of the historic downtown. But many don't know they are on the list or what they did to get there.
The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer (http://bit.ly/VeisGi ) reports that a campaign by students is seeking to modify the college's trespassing policy, which dates to the early 1970s.
A crowd of more than 100 jammed the Oberlin Public Library on Wednesday evening for a lively public forum to discuss revising the policy.
Anyone who violates the campus security rules -- such as playing basketball without a student ID or skateboarding on college property -- can be put on the list.

Temporal lobe
epilepsy involves the portions of the brain that
control emotions and memory. The temporal lobes are located on each side of the
head just above the ears at the temples. Temporal lobe epilepsy can cause both
partial and generalized seizures.
Temporal lobe seizures cause behaviors such as smacking of the lips
or rubbing the hands together. Other features of the seizures may include
emotional or thought disturbances and hallucinations involving sounds, smells,
or tastes.
Treatment with medicine controls seizures in many people who have
temporal lobe epilepsy. A type of brain surgery called anterior temporal
lobectomy is another treatment option for people with this type of

Hypocrites, as the verses relate in the Qur'an, are two-faced people, who act as if they were pious believers, though they do not have faith. They are impostors. More importantly, they do not engage in such falsehood unaided; they aim to infiltrate the company of the believers, posing as one of them. The reason they seek to be accepted among the believers is to gain some personal advantage.
They associate themselves with believers, appearing to be faithful, so as to deceive them in whatever way they can. Once they realize they will not be able to attain their desired end, however, or when the believers are faced with ordeals when tested by Allah, they immediately abandon them, thus revealing their true faces. Whether while or after leaving the presence of the believers, they do not abandon their agenda of bringing harm upon the believers, or fomenting conflict, and striving to ruin the unity of believers. For that reason, hypocrites are referred to in the Qur'an as "munafiqeen" (those who incite nifaq and fitnah).
Hypocrites are a kind of people to whom Allah calls attention in many verses of the Qur'an, and against whom He repeatedly warns believers to be cautious. For this reason, a believer, who takes the Qur'an as his guide, needs to be vigilant against hypocrites, and be knowledgable of all their characteristics, for, every community of believers, who live by the morality of the Qur'an, will certainly encounter hypocrites.
It would be very wrong to say that such people existed only in the time of our Prophet (saas), in Macca and Medina, for,-in every other period-as today, such characters are present right before us, under modern guises.
In our present societies too, there are communities of hypocrites who assume they can conceal themselves by taking on the attributes of a believer. Deceptively, they ally with those who are unclear or insincere in their understanding of religion, as they are themselves, for the purpose of concealing the truth, changing it for falsehood, forming new sects, and bringing harm to the believers, both materially and spiritually.
All verses related to hypocrites in the Qur'an reveal that Allah will surely expose all hypocrites concealing themselves within the community of believers. No matter how much the hypocrites may try to conceal their real identities, through their supposed cleverness, they will nevertheless be identified by believers by the will of Allah.
That is because, that is their fate. Allah created them for this purpose, and placed them among the believers so as to try them. Allah gives a detailed account of the mentalities, manner of speaking and actions of hypocrites in the Qur'an. No matter what, a hypocrite is destined to utter such language, and adopt this mindset. It is impossible for him to escape from this destiny preordained for him.
To expose the hypocrites, times of difficulty are not indispensable; that is to say, if Allah wills, He may grant believers the ability to recognize them and identify their hypocrisy. In expectation of an improvement in his attitude, believers possessed with this faculty may nevertheless show tolerance towards one displaying hypocrisy. It is for this reason a hypocrite thinks that he can conceal himself, but this is a great delusion. Once believers realize that that person is insistent on remaining insincere, they turn their backs to them.
Allah informs us in the Qur'an that hypocrites will never remain hidden:
Or did those with sickness in their hearts imagine that Allah would not expose their malevolence? If We wished, We would show them to you and you would know them by their mark and know them by their ambivalent speech. Allah knows your actions. We will test you until We know the true fighters among you and those who are steadfast and test what is reported of you. (Surah Muhammad, 29-31)
As the verses inform us, Allah may also make the hypocrites known to the believers by their demeanor and the way they talk. The symptoms of hypocrisy peculiar to these people, their fear and anxiety manifest themselves in their faces and through their speech. What hypocrites will be confronted with, in return for their hypocrisy, is a grievesome torment, both in this world and beyond.
Hypocrites Will Also Suffer Torment In This World
Causing fitnah in this world costs hypocrites an eternity in punishment. This is a torment that will begin when still in this world, and extend into Hell beyond death.
Specifically, they will suffer spiritual torment in this world. They live in perpetual anxiety and fear. Nevertheless, they actually know what they do is merely hypocrisy. For this reason, they feel constant pangs of conscience, throughout their lives.
In addition, they are always fearful, either before or after they have caused fitnah. They fear being discovered by the believers before their hypocrisy is made known. Once they separate from the believers, they live in constant fear of Allah's torment as reward for their evil. The increase in the number of those living by the principles of the Qur'an frightens the hypocrites, for, the more people submit themselves to Allah, the more they regret leaving the believers to pursue their trivial interests. For this reason, when Islamic morality is widely embraced, hypocrites may try to gain the confidence of the believers, claiming a share in their success, saying, "Were we not with you?" Allah relates in the Qur'an that these same things also occurred in the time of our Prophet (saas). The mindset of the hypocrites is conveyed in the Qur'an as follows:
Give news to the hypocrites that they will have a painful punishment. Do those who take the disbelievers as protectors, rather than the believers, hope to find power and strength with them? Power and strength belong entirely to Allah. (Surat an-Nisa', 138-139)
Those who anticipate the worst for you say, "Were we not with you?" Whenever you gain a victory from Allah, but if the disbelievers have a success they say, "Did we not have the upper hand over you and yet in spite of that keep the believers away from you?" Allah will judge between you on the Day of Rising. Allah will not give the disbelievers any way against the believers. (Surat an-Nisa', 141)
The hypocrites, who lived at the time of our Prophet (saas), also tried deceptively to gain the confidence of the believers, in order to share in the spoils gained from victories. The related verse reads:
When you go out to get the booty, those who remained behind will say, "Allow us to follow you," desiring to alter Allah's words. Say: "You may not follow us. That is what Allah said before." They will say, "It is only because you envy us." No indeed! How little they have understood! (Surat al-Fath, 15)
Evidently, hypocrites tried to approach the believers when they witnessed their success, but the believers were not deceived by them. On the contrary, believers announced their hypocrisy to everyone when they attained supremacy, and the hypocrites faced a humiliation in this world before the next.
They Will Be Cast Into The Lowest Depths Of The Fire
Hypocrites will receive the true punishment for their hypocrisy, fitnah and enmity in the Hereafter. The place allocated for the hypocrites in the Hereafter is the lowest depths of the Fire, that is to say, where the most intense torment will be inflicted. This fact is related in the Qur'an as follows:
The hypocrites are in the lowest level of the Fire. You will not find any one to help them. (Surat an-Nisa', 145)
The lowest level of the Fire, into which hypocrites will be cast, is described in the Qur'an as follows:
Even though they can see each other. An evildoer will wish he could ransom himself from the punishment of that Day, by means of his sons, or his wife or his brother or his family who sheltered him or everyone else on earth, if that only meant that he could save himself. But no! It is a Raging Blaze stripping away the limbs and scalp, which calls for all who drew back and turned away. (Surat al-Maarij, 11-17)
There will be sighing for them in it and they will not be able to hear. (Surat al-Anbiya, 100)
And beyond him is Hell where he will be given pus to drink. He gulps at it but can hardly swallow it down. Death comes at him from every side but he does not die. And beyond him is relentless punishment. (Surah Ibrahim, 16-17)
That Day you will see the evildoers yoked together in chains, wearing shirts of tar, their faces enveloped in the Fire. (Surah Ibrahim, 49-50)
The Tree of az-Zaqqum is the food of the wicked, seething in the belly like molten brass, as boiling water bubbles and seethes. "Seize him and drag him bodily into the middle of the Blazing Fire. Then pour the punishment of boiling water on his head." (Surat ad-Dukhan, 43-48)
Such torment to be inflicted upon the hypocrites is only in repayment for their deeds, for they harbored enmity towards the believers who merely chose to be Allah's servants, attempting to deceive them, and veer them from their righteous course, through lies and deception. They cooperated with disbelievers against believers, slandered them, and supported those plots hatched against them.
The torment they will receive, both in this world and the Hereafter, is only the punishment they deserve for what they have done. As Allah relates in one verse:
Allah does not wrong people in any way; rather it is people who wrong themselves. (Surah Yunus, 44)2009-01-18 03:43:26

Intel didn't have much to say about the architecture other than it was called Kenmore and we'd see it in 2008 in the Consumer Electronics market.
Did Sears/Kmart design part of the chip also? :p
seems like intel could come up with a more creative name than that.
I'm kinda curious though what consumer electronics will end up with some form of this. Reply

AmberClad - Tuesday, September 18, 2007 - linkI did a double take when I saw that too. I couldn't believe the PR people let that one through. This is what happens when you randomly pick the name of a city, without considering the alternate connotations of that name. Reply

JarredWalton - Tuesday, September 18, 2007 - linkCode names are not product names. They could call something "AMD- Thunderbird" internally if they wanted; it's only the final product names that really matter in terms of trademarks. Reply
bespoke - Wednesday, September 19, 2007 - linkIn the mid nineties, Apple got in trouble for a product with a code name of "Sagan". Carl Sagan's lawyers made a stink about Apple's use of his name, even thought it was an internal code name. Apple engineers changed the code name to "BHA", which was understood to mean "butt-head astronomer". Sagan sued for libel after that. :) Reply
archcommus - Tuesday, September 18, 2007 - linkLooks like current trends will continue for the near future. Both AMD and Intel are heading in similar directions: new architecture on 65 nm, same architecture on 45 nm, and then a brand new architecture that is highly parallel and a large divergence from CPU designs of today. And, just like today, it appears Intel will get to that new architecture at least a half year if not a full year ahead of AMD. Glad to see things accelerating so quickly in the CPU market, as long as AMD DOES keep catching up we should be okay!
Question: Does having a FSB implementation versus an on-die memory controller have any tangible advantage or disadvantage to the end user besides the impact on memory performance? Which types of applications see this impact the most? It's surprising that I've owned an Athlon 64 for over two years now, and if I upgraded any time before next summer, I'd STILL be going "backwards" regarding that. Wonder why Intel stuck with it for so long. Reply
Lord Banshee - Tuesday, September 18, 2007 - linkI would say you will not see a difference in Mem Performance going from A64->Core2Duo. But if intel does do the IMC then it might allow them to have smaller caches with less performance hit then makes their CPUs cheaper or have more room for other random logic. Reply
Shadowmage - Tuesday, September 18, 2007 - linkNehalem is definitely NOT 8 cores on a single die. Nehalem is 4 cores on a single die, with possibility for MCP solutions (8 cores on 2 dies). Reply

Martimus - Tuesday, September 18, 2007 - linkYou showed some interesting stuff, and I read through the article with interest. What really threw me was your symantics. You sounded more like an Intel salesman than a reviewer. things like
quote:like it matters if Intels solution makes it's way there versus someone elses solution. Or when you say
Silverthorne is Intel's very simple x86 system-on-a-chip design, which will hopefully make its way into everything from smart phones to digital TVs.
quote:which is just a pure guess at this point. If you say "may" instead of "fully expected to", it wouldn't sound like a used car salesman trying to covince me that this is already a done deal. I already get that enough from my contractors trying to convince me that their product has some magical properties that make it head and shoulders above the competition. Reply
Nehalem is fully expected to close the gap between AMD and Intel when it comes to memory performance and multi-processor scalability.
fitten - Tuesday, September 18, 2007 - linkI don't read it like that at all...
For example:
Silverthorne is Intel's very simple x86 system-on-a-chip design, which Intel hopes will hopefully make its way into everything from smart phones to digital TVs[/quote]
Nehalem is fully expected by Intel to close the gap between AMD and Intel when it comes to memory performance and multi-processor scalability.[/quote]
Would you argue either of those are false?
Martimus - Tuesday, September 18, 2007 - linkThat would be the best way of putting it I think. Those two adjustments you made make it sound much better. The current writing implies a bias of the writer, but yours implies a bias from the company, which is to be expected. I'm not sure why it upset me to see my favorite site writing an article that seemed to show a favoritism toward a particular company, but I think it had more to do with the fact that I don't want to have to worry about the site that I use to make purchasing decisions having a bias. I want to be able to trust this site, because it is stressful when you lose confidence in the people you look to for help. Reply
JarredWalton - Tuesday, September 18, 2007 - linkJust remember: this is the *Intel* Developer Forum, so any reporting is basically an overview of what Intel is saying and planning. Tradeshow articles don't tend to be quite as in-depth as actual reviews, and while we don't always explicitly state it or make it clear, meetings with any manufacturers are always them telling us what they hope/plan/want/etc. Reply

What's the Best Way to Store Fresh Produce?

Answer by: Taun Beddes, Utah State University Extension horticulturist
LOGAN, UT – Harvest time is here, and many people like to store their produce for later use. Canning, pickling, drying or freezing are common preservation methods for various fruits and vegetables. Another option is to store them fresh. Consider this information.
• Tomatoes are very sensitive to freezing. They should be covered with tarps or blankets during a light frost. When weather permanently turns cold, fruits should be picked, then allowed to ripen indoors. Fruits should be light green or have some hint of red. Tomatoes picked too green may rot. Temperatures near 70 F are ideal for faster ripening, but temperatures near 55 F will delay ripening for up to a month. Tomatoes stored below this temperature will develop a bland or off flavor. Additionally, stored tomatoes may shrivel in low humidity before ripening. To prevent this, place a layer of fruit in a box and cover it with wax paper. Another layer can be placed on top of the first and covered with more wax paper. Place the lid on the box when finished. Another option is to wrap each tomato individually. Remove tomatoes as they ripen. A banana placed in the box and allowed to ripen in proximity to the tomatoes may hasten ripening.
• Winter squash can be stored. Squash is ripe when the skin develops a waxy coating and cannot be damaged easily by scratching the skin with a fingernail. However, unless you are going to immediately consume the squash, it should be left attached until the vines have been mostly killed by frost. Leave some stem on the squash when it is picked. Store winter squash at temperatures ranging from 50 to 60 F at relatively low humidity.
• Onions should be harvested when the tops start to fall over. They should be lifted from the ground and stored in a well-ventilated area. When the necks turn brown and they "rustle when disturbed," they are ready to be stored. Shelf life is maximized when the bulbs are stored at low humidity and near freezing. Many factors influence shelf life including variety and whether the bulbs were grown from seeds or sets. Bulbs should be checked periodically.
• Potatoes are commonly stored for later use. They should be harvested after the vines start to die. Cure potatoes at 50 to 60 F at relatively high humidity for two weeks. After this, store tubers near 50 F. Lower temperatures may cause an off flavor to develop. Warmer temperatures are acceptable, but will decrease storage life.
• Other crops such as apples, pears, cabbage, celery, carrots and parsnips can be stored for an extended period of time. See the fact sheet at http://www.ext.colostate.edu/Pubs/Garden/07601.html for storing information. For a more complete look at home food storage, see the USU bulletin at http://extension.usu.edu/files/publications/publication/FN_502.pdf.

I cannot believe that this is the last post of Jill's house reveal! (sadness) It seems like I should have a LOT more to post about!! Showcasing the house is definitely the fun part though! I will have a tutorial or two to share, but this is the last reveal post. I hope you like it! If you missed the living room and entry way, don't forget to check them out!!
One of my favorite things to do is bounce decorating ideas off my friends, family and clients. THEY might not enjoy everything that rants out of my crazy/decorating mouth, but I SURE DO! Ha! When I told Jill that I wanted to make fork and knife curtains for her kitchen, she looked like she was going to fall off her chair! I think I even followed the comment with, "You will JUST have to trust me!" I had a vision, and I was really excited to show her what that vision was!!
The cozy cottage style kitchen is decorated in the same serene turquoise, white, grey and olive pallet that I love. It is very clean and bright, and I cannot get enough of it! I wish it were my kitchen/dining room! When I was making decisions for Jill's House, my main agreement (with myself) was that I would not put anything in her home that I would not put in my own. I stayed true to that guide throughout the entire decorating process.
We added a pot rack (that we constructed ourselves) and hung it with rope (because of my love affair with pottery barn and restoration hardware who have both used rope in their designs this season). I loved the idea and even secured the rope with legit bailing wire. As a farm girl from central Utah, I couldn't help myself!
If you have been a reader of my site for a little while, you know that mismatched furniture is definitely a love of mine. So, I'm sure you aren't surprised by the mismatched chairs around Jilly's dining room table. The green velvet chairs at the head and foot of the dining table were purchased from Marshalls, and the others were made over by yours truly. Of course I used my FAVORITE spray paint from Krylon!! I showcased them in my fun week of chairs posts.
Most of the accessorizing was done by Leslie Thomas, a good friend and talented decorator who placed most of the accessories above all of the cabinets. I made the fun confectionery shop window and I loved how fun it turned out! Making boutique-like items for Jill's house was a lot of fun for me (and super duper thrifty too!)
One of my favorite subtle details of the kitchen includes "his" and "hers" aprons that I also made for Jill with my Silhouette CAMEO machine. AND, the magic machine also helped me make the fun fork and knife curtains displayed earlier in the post. I'm telling ya, my Silhouette CAMEO was my right hand man (or girl) during this makeover!
Most of the other accessories for this space was purchased at HomeGoods, Tai Pan, and Michaels crafts. The fun sugar and flour glass canisters that I also labeled using my Silhouette CAMEO are pretty cute, and they were simple canisters bought at a big box store. The amazing rug for in front of Jill's sink was a STEAL of a deal on Hautelook a few months ago.
I worked really hard on Jill's House. In fact a lot of blood, sweat, and tears went into this transformation. I am really happy to be able to be sharing the final result with you! If you have any questions about where be bought any of the items in this room, please don't hesitate to ask. I am willing to share every single detail.
The fun farmhouse style table came from Down East Home (on of my FAVORITE home decor stores in St. George Utah). The rug beneath the dining table was super duper cheap from Overstock.com. (Similar to the one linked here, but a different size).
I hope you love it, but above all else, the fact the Jill loves it is enough for me!

Companies are spending an increasing amount of time on managing the existence of – and the allocation of income to – permanent establishments. Often, several departments are involved in dealing with potential exposures or using some of the opportunities to structure their organisation more effectively. The change in the way companies operate their businesses globally adds to this complexity and raises new questions, which were not necessarily anticipated when international law concepts were initially developed. Although there are some recent policy developments, it remains uncertain whether these will resolve the most pressing concerns.
This report provides an overview of some of today's main trends regarding the topic of permanent establishments.

HEARTFELT tributes are being made to a respected and popular teacher from Robert Blake Science College who died last week.
ICT teacher Ian Snell died suddenly during school hours on January 7 and the school has now opened a book of condolence in his memory.
Head teacher Rob Gammon said in a statement: "It is with sadness and regret that I have to inform you of the untimely death of a member of staff on January 7.
"He was a long-standing member of staff and well-respected by students and colleagues, with nearly 20 years of service at the school.
"The students have been told the sad news by their tutors.
"I am also mindful that this will be a difficult time for the school community. The school is being supported by the educational psychology service and this help will continue as necessary over the coming days."
The school has been contacted by a number of ex-students and friends of the school in response to the news and announced yesterday (Monday) that a book of condolence will be available in the school reception this week from 8am to 6pm.
Mr Gammon added: "This is intended for all those friends of the school who wish to express their support for Mr Snell's family at this sad time and also would like to comment on the huge contribution that he made to the lives of so many young people."
Many readers who knew Mr Snell have also been leaving their condolences on the Mercury Facebook page.
Emma Jane wrote: "A respected teacher! RIP Mr Snell. Thoughts to all the family at this sad time! Xx."
Sadie Trent commented: "RIP Mr Snell. Though I was only at Blake for 18 months, you made me feel very welcome. My thoughts are with your family, friends and colleagues at this very sad time. I honestly cannot believe it. I owe my success at Blake to you and your colleagues. X."
Gem Greenwood said: "He was my son's teacher. Deacon was very sad and told me he was a great teacher and will be missed. My thoughts are with his family and friends and, of course, his former pupils xxx."
Kelly Rayson wrote: "RIP Mr Snell. My children are students at Robert Blake and I was myself and remember you when I was there. You were a fab teacher and will be missed by lots of students. Thinking of your family and friends at this sad time x."
