My wife is on another similar board. She would point things out to me that she read that were interesting. A lot of the parenting styles were not that similar to ours though.
What brings me here? We are both pretty "crunchy" as they say. We have ideas about parenting, but no really real-life people who share our views.
So what really attracts you to this spot? To Mothering, specifically?

I lurked for years because my wife posts here pretty often. Every so often the temptation to reply was too great and I'd piggyback on her account, specifying that it was me rather than she. So I finally got around to making my own account.

Talk:Vietnam War
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Vietnam War article.
edit Comment
It's funny, but this article scares the shit out of me. Like 1984, but weirder. --The Acceptable Cainad (Fnord) 20:54, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
edit From Pee Review
Hmm, yeah. What do you think of this? how can it be improved? (the usual stuff). Anything is welcome. Thanks —Braydie at 18:33, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
|So-so at this point. Captions are funny, and there are some chuckles, but there needs to be more.
|For a hoax article, detail is essential. Every paranoid machination should be inserted and described in the dryest tone possible. Talk more about how all this was pulled off.
|Prose and formatting:
|Writing and format are fine. No complaints.
|I like the footnotes.
|Final Score:
|Really, it needs to be longer. It's a good start -- I think the tone is just about right -- but make it sound more like a conspiracy theory, and get loony doing so.
|--Procopius 19:12, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, (that was quick) —Braydie at 19:24, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
edit WTF?
Why has an article, which sucked a year ago (take note, 28 is NOT a good pee review score....) and has not been changed in any meaningful way, been AFD's and then featured? What is wrong with the Uncyclopedia community? Perhaps they should spend less time voting for articles that are good (clearly we are running out....) and more time writing articles that are good. The "top" humour wiki on the face of the planet, and the best we can offer is this school boy crap? I am losing faith..... 184.108.40.206 21:09, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
- The problem with humour is that it is subjective, so what makes you laugh may not force even a titter from me. There are a lot of examples of articles that I would never feature that have made the grade, maybe that's because we cover a lot of tastes, who can say? Do you have a username, btw, your edits don't seem all that substantial for someone who has taken the time out to check the history of this article and to comment so passionately. -- Sir Mhaille (talk to me)

Can we do something like "That's because it didn't happen." Maybe something in the third paragraph?

Baku, Azerbaijan, Aug.29
By - Trend:
Azerbaijan handed over to a third country an Armenian serviceman Hagop Indzhigulyan, the head of the Azerbaijani representation of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) Ilakha Huseynova told Trend Aug. 29.
The country that Indzhigulyan was handed over to was not revealed.
Hagop Indzhigulyan (born in 1991) entered the territory under the control of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces in the district of Agdam on the night of August 8, 2013.
Before handing over the Armenian serviceman to a third country the ICRC met with him.
Indzhigulyan previously applied for transfer to a third country.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan.
As a result of the ensuing war, in 1992 Armenian armed forces occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.
The two countries signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, Russia, France and the U.S. are currently holding peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented four U.N. Security Council resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.

Ashcroft appeals against ruling
The US Justice Department has appealed against a court ruling which, it says, restricts the scope of anti-terrorist investigators to co-ordinate surveillance operations.
It was reacting to a ruling by America's secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) which was made public on Thursday.
BBC correspondent Justin Webb says that Friday's appeal marks the first time a US administration has tried to overturn a FISC ruling.
The ruling was announced by the Senate Judiciary Committee and it was the first time a FISC ruling had been made public.
'Carte blanche'
Justice Department spokeswoman Barbara Comstock said the 17 May ruling hampered the use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.
That act was broadened by sweeping new anti-terrorist legislation passed after the 11 September attacks - the USA Patriot Act.
In its ruling, the FISC rejected a request by Attorney General John Ashcroft for dozens of electronic surveillance permits, saying it had been misled by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
"They have in our view incorrectly interpreted the Patriot Act and the effect of that incorrect interpretation is to limit the kind of co-ordination that we think is very important," said Ms Comstock.
In its appeal, the Justice Department argued that its surveillance requests were legal because legislation had "never prescribed the kinds of efforts, law enforcement or otherwise, that may be used" in protecting America from foreign threats.
Civil liberties groups are hoping that the Justice Department's appeal will fail as they believe that Mr Ashcroft is using the new legislation to pry into the lives of US citizens in a manner that breaches their fundamental constitutional rights.
Our correspondent says that the issue of civil rights in the wake of 11 September is now reaching some of the highest courts in America.

"easy to customize for varying tastes. My wife likes mango salsa and doesn't much care for mushrooms or cilantro, so I made hers first. I like it hot, so I stuffed mine with medium salsa, chopped Meadow Mushrooms that I harvested and dried last fall, cilantro, roasted green peppers and drizzled Chalula hot sauce over the top. We both had them our way and loved it!"

B/R Fantasy Baseball: Loons Week One Press ConferenceApril 12, 2009
Week One: Leftfield Lunatics 8, LB's Maniaxs 2
Press Conference with Loons GM Sergey Zikov and Manager Lloyd McClendon.
THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.
Question: Congratulations on the win, first of all. How does it feel?
Lloyd McClendon: Look, it's one win. We couldn't buy a Filet of Fish from McDonald's with that. And you're talking like it's the playoffs? PLAYOFFS? That's a terrible question!
Sergey Zikov: Well first we want to thank all our incredible fans and millions of season ticket holders. Without them, nothing is possible. It's a good start for our ballclub and we expect nothing of the same next week.
Question: The offense was completely in gear and it's only the first week of the regular season. What do you make of that?
Lloyd McClendon: Well you know me, fellas. I still don't think we stole enough bases. We definitely we're up to our potential there. I felt Jose Reyes and Emilio Bonifacio could have got their feet out of the chicken coop and run like they got a dingo on their behinds.
Sergey Zikov: There are obviously places we can improve. We need to score more runs if we are going to win in this league. Our home run totals are also a bit low so we will be passing out HGH and other types of anabolic steroids tomorrow in the locker room.
Question: Any concerns about the pitching? Several guys had very poor outings to say the least and the team did not manage many saves. What's the deal?
Lloyd McClendon: Don't you have a go at my boys, Jimmy! Come after me!
Sergey Zikov: The saves will come sometime. I wouldn't count on it too much, because we will probably be sending Mariano [Rivera] down to the minor leagues later this week to get some more playing time. As for the pitching, our strikeouts are there but we can't keep our *bleeping* ERA down!
Question: You've managed to work a number of minor league starters into the rotation this week, guys like Nick Blackburn, Yusmeiro Petit and Kevin Correia into the lineup. Is this a trend we can expect to see more of?
Lloyd McClendon: Yep. We just take 'em kids and put 'em out on the dirt. No pain, no gain, Sally.
Sergey Zikov: No question about it. We like to see guys like that on the big league roster. Better them than Justin [Verlander] or Jared [Weaver] stinking up the joint.
Question: What did you make of the opposition?
Lloyd McClendon: No comment.
Sergey Zikov: They were a worthy opponent who gave us all we could handle. It came right down to the wire for sure. They were hurt in the long run though by starting Matt Wieters at catcher and two very disabled pitchers, uh, in the rotation.
All the lucky bounces were going our way and we were fortunate enough they ate the cake that Soriano sneezed all over. It gave them a nasty bout of common cold for the week.
Question: Now we understand the team has a trade in the works, can you talk about that a little?
Lloyd McClendon: Meh? I just steal the bases. Talk to him.
Sergey Zikov: That is correct. We have traded Evan Longoria, Curtis Granderson and Joba Chamberlain to the Brooklyn Bashers for Nick Markakis, Josh Beckett and Conor Jackson.
Question: What was the reasoning behind that?
Sergey Zikov: We felt that we had ample depth at middle infielder and therefore was an expendable position. We had a glaring need for a staff ace like Josh who can deliver wins and keep a good ERA. He will definitely bring stability to our rotation. We also gained a young player in Nick who brings a lot of potential and youth to our veteran outfield.
Last, we gained a versatile position player in Jackson, who has the ability to play infield and outfield while hitting for a very solid average. We knew we had to give to get and giving up a great player like Evan was what we needed to do.
Question: Any other players on the trading block at the moment?
Sergey Zikov: Mariano Rivera. We are looking for a position player or even a starter in return for him.
Question: You face End of the Dugout next. What is the strategy?
Lloyd McClendon: We need to drink more protein shakes, take some more HGH, all the usuals pre-game rituals. We're gonna need to steal some more too if we wanna run with those boys.
Sergey Zikov: I won't lie, I don't think we have much of a chance. They're just a great all around ballclub. We have to stick to our game and continue to get pucks into the offensive zone to create scoring opportunities.
Question: We heard that Kaz Matsui hit a foul ball through your windshield. What happened there?
Lloyd McClendon: Boy, you really think Mr. Matsui has that kind of power? That kid couldn't hit a golf ball out of the infield.
Sergey Zikov: That cost a considerable bit of money to fix. We gave him the pink slip for it and brought in Emilio [Bonifacio] instead. Alright that'll be all for now. We have to go watch Anna Benson's game film from last week.

- 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
- 1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 3/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Assorted fresh vegetables

RICHARD McEvoy says he's been inspired by Europe's Ryder Cup heroics ahead of his tee off at St Andrews today.
The Thorpe Hall pro will get the chance to congratulate some of Europe's heroes at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, with the entry list including Paul Lawrie, Peter Hanson and Martin Kaymer, who sunk the put which won the Ryder Cup in America.
McEvoy said: "I said to my wife 'there's going to be a buzz' this week following what happened at the Ryder Cup. There always is.
"I remember after we won it two years ago in Wales when it went into that Monday, it was incredible then.
"And there will be a few of them here in St Andrews and I'm looking forward to congratulating them on that performance because it was inspirational stuff.
"I'm sure they will all have had a very good week with some celebration evenings. And, to be honest, I would have loved to have been there for the party after they won the Ryder Cup because there will have been a few sore heads in the morning!"
Although McEvoy's looking forward to giving them a well-earned handshake, he admits he'll be all business when the action gets underway as he goes in search of the big result he needs to guarantee his spot on next season's European Tour.
After competing at 25 tournaments on this year's Tour, McEvoy is currently 142nd in the Race to Dubai rankings and needs to make up about 60,000 euros in prize money to secure the top 115 spot he needs.
But he's in the perfect place to that because he enjoyed a career-best haul of 78,000 euros at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in October 2010. "Two years ago I secured my card here so it does hold good memories for me," he said.
"I love links courses anyway and St Andrews is very special to me. We come up here every year and stay in the same house and enjoy the week.
"So it's somewhere I feel comfortable and somewhere I know I can do well."

NFL Street 2
NFL Street 2 - XBOX Review
There is no doubting the fact that EA Sports have, for years now, ruled the American Football scene when it comes to console gaming. The John Madden series has developed over the years into the seminal title for all you NFL fans. NFL Street takes the rather precise engine into a far more arcade type experience based on adrenalin rushes and "out of this world" moves.
Anyone out there that knows the first title will be asking the question "so what's new" there is quite a lot of new stuff added but maybe not enough in the way of meaningful additions. Float through the air like a bird with 15 feet high jumps and make off-the-wall catches, up-the-wall passes, wall hurdles, and endzone dives, or pull off jukes like a wall-runnin' football ninja. New challenges await around every corner as seven games including Crush the Carrier are unveiled for the first
time. Create yourself a player, master all the new skills, and hit the streets. You can recruit the best players as you build a rep and dominate the competition. Take over new neighborhoods and defend your turf until you Own the City. You can build your player to legendary status and then import him into Madden NFL 2006.
The city addition is one of the more welcome tweaks and actually adds depth to the game. Players now descend on Bay City , an all-new persistent world to build their teams, their reps, and their battle plans one field at a time. Once you own the walls, you will own the city. Join pick-up games around the city and establish your reputation by recruiting talent from the neighborhoods you conquer as you begin your journey to become football's biggest street legend.
As in NFL Street 1 the Gamebreaker meter plays a large part in your chances of victory. NFL Street 2 has had another Gamebreaker meter added, although you don't have to wait for it to fill up. You can play your Gamebreaker as soon as the first meter fills up but if you do wait for the second Gamebreaker meter then you have almost guaranteed your touchdown. When you play a Gamebreaker the view switches to a cut scene showing your team pulling off an awesome play.
NFL Street 2 advances the title in the right direction but not enough to warrant the outlay. There isn't enough in the way of new and meaningful additions to this release only 11 months after the original – the game breaker comes too frequent and the game isn't balanced between offence and defense. The open city idea has been added from need for speed and does add an extra dimension to the environment but as part two of a new twist on the NFL play this title is sadly lacking.
The Sound & graphics are what make this game. Playing in a back street with your friends is not so much about the rules, it's about the "vibe" & having fun, this is where NFL Street 2 excels. Borrowing heavily from the ultra vivid hip-hop culture NFL Street 2 is "BAD". Fat tunes all the way, excellent vocal taunts and expressions mixed with realistic street ambience. Graphically the venues are believable, the players individual and likable. Each player has his victory dance –like in fighting games - When it's cold you can see your players breathe and the fast-paced action is easy to understand and nice and clear. Overall if you like arcade sport and have a soft spot for street culture then you will love this game. If you are looking for the ultimate American football sim then there is more on offer from other titles.
Football with an All-New Style
Add even more style to your game by making no-look, one-handed grabs, dive tackles, button-mash ball strips, and new to any football game: hurdle wraps and run-specific defensive line moves. If you really want to rub it in, celebrate that winning score with one hand as you make a mid-air snatch with the other.
New GameBreaker System
Revamped GameBreakers build to dramatic sequences where players go airborne. Running backs launch themselves off lead blockers to hurdle defenders, while linebackers throw defensive backs over the line to force a turnover.
New Playing Fields
Ten new fields and two bonus environments alter your gameplay strategy and open up the opportunity for a variety of wall interactions
New STREET Mug
An all-new Create-A-Player system allows you to design your own players. Customize every player detail including the color of your eyes, the shape of your nose, mouth, ears, jaw, and chin, plus hairstyle, hair color, and more. Then add some style with the hottest new gear on the streets.

'Gladly Laid Upon the Country's Altar'
Methodists and the American Civil War
A Drew University Exhibit, Madison, New Jersey
Curated by Christopher J. Anderson, Ph.D.
Methodist Librarian and Coordinator of Special Collections
September 22, 2011 – April 30, 2012
On March 4, 1865, President Abraham Lincoln in his Second Inaugural Address confirmed that American citizens and armies both North and South believed that God was on their side of a national conflict that has been called among other names the Civil War, the War Between the States and the War of Northern Aggression. From 1861 to 1865 several hundred thousand Methodists from the United States and the Confederate States of America preached, fought, and labored for both sides. During the conflict Methodists served as government officials, soldiers, chaplains, nurses, and church leaders while fighting for state's rights and against the institution of slavery. With adherents in the millions, American Methodists played a crucial role in the struggle for racial and sectional freedoms.
Drew University, founded shortly after the conflict, had several direct connections to the Civil War. Drew landowners, trustees, administration, faculty, and students participated in the conflict. Those links are highlighted in two cases in the University Library. A second section of the exhibition, mounted at the United Methodist Archives and History Center, showcases the historic tensions within American Methodism over racial identities that led to denominational fracturing and ultimately to sectional conflict.
The exhibit highlights ten historic Methodist traditions and includes manuscripts, photographs, printed texts, and material objects from the collections of the Drew University Archives and Methodist Library as well as the General Commission on Archives and History for The United Methodist Church. The exhibit continues through April 30, 2012, and is open to the public in the Methodist Center Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The main Library display is on view during regular library hours. For more information about the exhibit, or to arrange for a class tour or individual tour, contact firstname.lastname@example.com or call the Methodist Library at 973.408.3590 weekdays.

NEW YORK — General Motors will reinstate 661 dealerships it sought to drop from its sales network.
GM executives said Friday that the dealerships — more than half of those seeking to stay with the automaker — will receive letters giving them the option to remain open.
As part of its restructuring, GM last year told about 2,000 dealerships it would not renew their franchise agreements once they run out in October 2010. But the dealerships have said GM treated them unfairly, and last month Congress passed a law requiring an appeals process for the dealers.
"By doing this we save a lot of time, energy and dollars," said Jim Bunnell, GM general manager of network support, saying the company wished to avoid a "very large arbitration process."
GM would not offer any details Friday about which dealerships it was reinstating and where they are located. It said it chose the 661 based on a variety of criteria, including sales and other business factors.
The company said it hoped to have every letter of intent with dealerships by Monday. At that point, dealers have 10 days to respond and 60 days to meet a set of criteria that would allow them to stay with GM.

Tom Corbett's long re-election climb
According to a recent Harper Poll, 24 percent of likely voters believe that Gov. Tom Corbett deserves re-election and 56 percent believe he does not. By any standard, that is an uphill climb.
Pete DeCoursey, veteran Harrisburg political soothsayer and Capitolwire bureau chief, reported that when Sen. Arlen Specter had numbers slightly better than this in 2009, he became a Democrat, concluding that the Republican primary was hopeless.
Corbett has remained fiscally conservative even as his favorability poll numbers have steadily declined. It seems that a majority of voters like the notion of not raising taxes and cutting spending. But the result of all that stinginess is not so popular. Wait until the faces of average Pennsylvanians are tied to the governor's actual spending cuts.
This re-election campaign would have been dicey even without those low poll numbers. Expect ads featuring chronically ill citizens who cannot get health care without Medicaid expansion. A bridge collapse or any public works failure will be blamed on the administration's failure to pass a transportation bill.
Health-care and service workers will tell their stories about the effects of inadequate public transit funding. And public schoolteachers and schoolchildren will have their say.
For a couple of years, when talking about the governor's race, Democrats repeated the adage, "Well, we can't beat somebody with nobody." But now they have a lineup of somebodies, energized by recent polls.
Allyson Schwartz, the congresswoman for Montgomery County and Northeast Philadelphia, has a statewide following as a progressive leader. She is a health-care advocate and ran a Planned Parenthood clinic before public life.
This cuts both ways, and some Republican leaders say she is the Democrat they are hoping for if they are to have a shot. The veteran pol also has a voting record of more than 20 years that will make for ample political hay.
Still, it is a deep bench. Kathleen McGinty, a former environmental adviser to the Clinton and Rendell administrations, is a social progressive but wants "Pennsylvania to become the blue-collar Silicon Valley" by doing better with our gas reserves.
State Treasurer Rob McCord, Harvard-educated, late to politics after business success, was easily re-elected last year. He promises the view from the outside while enjoying the inside.
Tom Wolf, a York County businessman and former state revenue secretary, is a pro-education, proven jobs creator, who has pledged $10 million of his own money to the primary.
John Hanger, a former Department of Environmental Protection secretary, wants to stop education cuts, enact a reasonable drilling tax, increase drilling oversight and expand Medicaid.
Max Myers, a minister, has begun a populist campaign focused on poverty, employment, education, equal rights and the environment.
Says DeCoursey: "Consultants I talk to don't even know how you win, starting at a 24 percent re-elect."
But if the governor decides to have a go at it, the path out will require at least all three of these things — an opponent whom he can demonize, a pitiful turnout in Philly (which can happen in a non-presidential or non-mayoral year) and the usually reliable loyalty of Western Pennsylvania voters.

Alamo Bowl: Players of the game
Updated 11:34 pm, Saturday, December 29, 2012
Texas: Marquise Goodwin, WR (voted game MVP) — With no running game and little coming from David Ash's arm, the Olympian put Texas in the game with a 64-yard TD on a reverse to start the second quarter and won it with a 36-yard TD catch with 2:24 left.
Oregon State: Storm Woods, RB — With all of the questions about how Texas didn't recruit Robert Griffin III or Johnny Manziel, how they let the redshirt freshman from Pflugerville go was a hot topic Saturday. He rushed for 118 yards and two TDs on 21 carries, but he was absent in the fourth.
Sports Channel
Texas: Alex Okafor, DE (voted game MVP) — The All-Big 12 player capped his UT career in style. He had eight tackles and 41/2 sacks, forcing a fumble on one of them and causing Oregon State QB Cody Vaz to miss a series after another.
Oregon State: Jordan Poyer, CB — Senior made five tackles, a sack and had a 20-yard punt return in the second quarter to set up a short 47-yard touchdown drive that gave Beavers a 20-10 lead.

We've all heard that statement or one like it. We've even heard statements like "God won't give you anything you can't handle" or the opposite "God will give you things you can't handle so that you will rely on Him to get you through." We've even heard Bob, Larry and Jr. Asparagus tell us that God is bigger than the boogie man, He's bigger than Godzilla and the Monsters on TV" – if you don't know what I'm talking about then click here and soak in the greatness of Veggie Tales.
If you think about it God really is bigger than the boogie men that scare and intimidate us and He is indeed bigger than the Godzilla-size issues of our lives and the fearful Monsters we hear about on TV.
When we face trials in our lives and we surely will (James 1:1-4), we need to realize that God needs us to go through them in order to produce endurance in our lives. Endurance means lots of things but with God I believe He desires for us to remain committed and patient to his faithfulness and He will get us through whatever we are facing. I think for many, patience is not a trait easily possessed.
Last week I enjoyed a week in Yosemite National Park on a pastor's retreat and I learned some things that I believe will translate well to this topic:
1) Everything in Yosemite is enormous but for God it was just a single stroke of his brush when he created the Earth. Our enormous problems, pains and sins are not too big for God!
2) Fire is necessary for Yosemite's growth and reproduction. Though we may not desire fires in our lives we need them for our growth and to help us grow closer to God.
3) Much of Yosemite's character comes from its deep valleys and high peaks. Much of our character comes from our deep valleys and high peaks. God is consistent!
4) If you stray off the paths in Yosemite you risk getting seriously hurt. I think you know where I'm going here! God's path always gets us to our destination safely!
5) "Ruthlessly eliminate hurry in our lives" was one of the many statements I took away from the retreat. Hurry is the opposite of patience! Feel free to take this one for yourselves.
All I know is this – God is bigger than your problem and He loves you so much that he is willing to carry you through your problem, bear the burden of your pain and even die for you to take away your sins. He is our Father and we are His kids…He's got our backs!
By the way God really is bigger than the boogie man, and Godzilla and the monsters on TV. What is there to fear?

Thanks Brian. Another example of Romans 1:20 in action - not only "His eternal power and divine nature...clearly perceived...in the things that have been made," but so many lessons on how He interacts with us in His creation as well. Thanks for seeing these parallels and putting them into words for us. Really great illustrations.
Please Help
Indeed He is. I say this out-loud even as tears of helpnessness are running down my face. I know He is bigger than the poverty I am facing, the school fees that haven't been paid for almost 8 months, the rent that's becoming almost double because of all the arrears. I know I don't need to cry because of these things, as Gods' kid, He's got them covered. Can you help me understand why it has gone on for this long?
I'm not doubting HIs ability to change the situation (He already has, through Christ), I just need help accepting that what my children and I are going through is ok in His eyes.

A developer is looking at converting proposed townhomes in Elk River to another use.
Source Construction Capital in Plymouth had planned to build 48 more townhome units in the River Park development in Elk River. But now Chase Peterson of Source Capital said they would rather convert that land to 17 new single-family lots.
"Redevelopment of this site into single-family homes will bring life back into the River Park neighborhood," Peterson said in a letter to the city. "We are confident that this conversion from townhomes to single family is the best use of the site and also the quickest way to get this development to the finish line."
The City Council has reviewed the concept and generally seemed to be in favor of the idea, according to Mayor John Dietz.
But before it could move forward, there would need to be a formal application and a public hearing.
The River Park plat was originally approved in 2005 and included 80 townhome units and 36 single-family lots, according to City Planner Zack Carlton. To date, 32 townhome units and 23 single-family homes have been built.
The site is located off Twin Lakes Road, near Twin Lakes Elementary School.
This is the second time in recent years that a developer has converted proposed townhome units to another use.
Last year, the developer of Kliever Lake Fields in Elk River converted 42 proposed townhome units into 21 detached single-family townhomes.
Meanwhile, Mark Urista, owner of Coldwell Banker Vision in Elk River and chair of the Elk River Area Chamber of Commerce, said the townhome market right now is very good. Units that had been selling for $70,000 to $80,000 a few years ago as bank-owned homes are now selling in the $130,000 to $140,000 range, he said.
Single-level units and townhomes for people age 55 and older are especially in short supply, he said.
City officials estimate there are about 1,000 townhomes in Elk River, which is about 12 percent of the housing stock, according to Carlton.
The townhome building boom in Elk River occurred in the mid-2000s, specifically 2003 to 2005, he said. There were 608 multi-family units — townhome and apartment units — built in Elk River during that time.
Elk River also experienced a single-family housing boom during that same period, Carlton said.

MARK Cooper thinks the work his players have been doing on training ground to improve their attacking movement is beginning to pay dividends.
When Raphael Branco forced Stephen Bywater into a mistake for the late equaliser against Gillingham on Tuesday night it came on the end of a long passing move, that showed great patience so deep into the game.
After last Saturday's defeat to Crawley, Cooper had his players in on Sunday to get them moving the ball with more purpose in the final third and they have continued to do that this week.
As Swindon prepare to take on Crewe tomorrow the fans will be expecting the home side to pick up the win and the manager wants his side to continue to show the dominance they demonstrated in their four previous games.
"We're going to do more (work) today. We maybe need to be a little bit quicker around the final third, maybe get a few more balls into the danger area." Cooper said at his pre-match press conference yesterday.
"When you have that much possession you can see the other team dropping back and dropping back, starting to get tired, that what's happened at the end and that's why we got the goal (against Gillingham),"
"The fans will be expecting us to win, of course we're at home and people will expect us to win.
"It's alright saying we're at home and we're playing a team that's just been beaten at home, you've actually got to go and do it.
"You've got to perform properly collectively and as individuals, with and without the ball. If you do that and it's your day you have a chance of winning the game.
"It's two teams that are both young and energetic and want to play football, so we're hoping it's an open and entertaining game."
Individual errors rather than defensive flaws have cost the Robins most so far this season. That comes with their more adventurous style of play but Cooper is fully aware those mistakes cannot become a habit.
"We're at our most vulnerable, it seems to me, when we have the ball and the ball turns over, we lose it and we're in transition. That's when we become vulnerable, so that's what we're working on.
"I think it's concentration that when we're attacking that we are switched on that if the ball does turn over that we know it might be a big long ball over the top that we might have to deal with better than we have done."

It has been way too long since I last updated this blog. Now that I back for what I hope to be much more frequent updates regarding LiveCycle, Flex and rich Internet applications I decided to give my blog a fresh new look as well.
Over the past year I have been on the team that has been actively developing the new form guide functionality released with the LiveCycle Enterprise Suite. In particular I have been developing the new Guide Builder tool that is included with LiveCycle Designer. Now that LiveCycle ES has been released this post is the first in a series I plan to write over the next couple of months that covers the new form guide technology and how it works.
Form guides are Flash Player compatible wizard-like panels that help guide people through a data capture experience which are rendered using LiveCycle Forms ES. While the form guide technology is included with LiveCycle Forms ES, there is also a tool called Guide Builder included with LiveCycle Designer ES that enables form guides to be defined from existing PDF and XML templates.
Imagine you have a document-based PDF form. While this form is very capable of collecting data it may not be the most intuitive experience for a novice user. Such a form is still required however for going offline, collecting signatures and printing. Also, if the form has been already imported into LiveCycle Designer additional scripting may have been added. Form guides enable a user to take their document centric forms and apply a new skin or user interface to them while still maintaining the same underlying data model. In fact, the data model is shared between form guides and the PDF so one could actually enter data in either and see instantly in both renderings of the form!
Providing a different skin to an exisintg PDF form is ony the first step in form guide generation. Form guides also provide a wealth of new features not available when simply filling out a document-based PDF. Navigation can be added, sections of the form will dynamically appear as a auser enters data and answers questions, transitions can be added and interactive content incorporated into the final application as well.

Dark chocolate is life. I am very pale and have hazel eyes and this color of eyeliner really makes my eyes pop out when i use it. It cost 17 dollars but it is worth it in my opinion because of all the eyeliners i have tried from drug stores it becomes runny and i have to be cleaning up my waterline or under my bottom eyelashes too much and with this one it stays put. Love how it is in a tube you have to twist to make the product come out or go back in because that way you dont worry about it drying out or using more than you need. Love this eyeliner. Not to mention the little blender sponge on the other end that is there when you want a smudged smokey eye look too so thats cool.
Review for: Navy
These to date are still my favorite eye liners. They glide on easily, don't need to be sharpened, and if you store them with the cap on don't dry out. I have tried many of their shades and the pigments are very strong and well blended and once you put them on they stay on all day long. Just make sure that when you apply them you're careful as they can smudge and then are difficult to get off. After they've dried though they don't smudge at all!
Review for: Slate
I always use this when I know I won't be able to touch up my makeup, like nights out. It does smudge a little under the eye but stays put. I use this with an additional eyeliner because it doesn't work well for wing eyeliner. I have brown eyes but have used it for my clients with all different colored eyes. The staying power alone is worth the price point. It is not the cheapest eyeliner, but I think it is worth the little extra.
Review for: Navy
I LOVE this eyeliner. It's very easy to apply and works perfectly with my blue-grey eyes. The price-point is great and the color is true navy. It's a creamy formula that locks in place once applied. Easily smudge-able but you have to work fast as it does set very quickly. I would recommend this product to anyone who was looking for a very trustworthy product.
I've been using this eyeliner for years I love the color its often hard to find brown In a shade that i like because it's always so dark. This eyeliner is really smooth I love the smudges on the end it gives a beautiful effect it's worth every penny I know it's expensive but other eyeliner brands make my eyes really smudgy and runny
Review for: Slate
Love this eyeliner for its consistency. It goes on smoothly and has okay coverage. It ends up smudging at the corner of my eyes if I wear it too long so I've used it more like a temporary liner more recently for events that I don't expect to last all day. It still is a go to liner for me for its ease of use and texture.
Review for: Slate
LOVE THE COLOR! Goes on great and last awhile…I am a simple person…I don't like to wear to much make up but when I do I want a product that won't break me out and doesn't last long…this is a great product and great value…I love to see my Clinique counter ladies when they are in gift and stock up on my go to items...
Review for: Moss
I really love this eyeliner, it's such a beautiful green. I just finished one of these last week and will definitely be purchasing another very soon. So easy to use. I love the smudged on, so convenient. I have several of these and Moss is the first one I've used up entirely, it just really makes brown eyes pop.
Review for: Really Black
As I am a older woman, I have found that threw the years of testing many eyeliners, Tha Clinique, has the best, it stays with you all day, does not smudge, to give you the black under eye as other eyeliners do. I highly recommend this product to everyone who has tried many eyeliners, it's the best of the bedt
Review for: Eye Liners Shy Brown 16 Shy Brown
Really love the skinny tip on this eyeliner. It makes it as easy to apply as a liquid liner, but with none of the mess. I also appreciate that you can twist it up as you wear it down, and don't need to sharpen the tip. It stays sharpened, no matter what, for great definition on my upper and lower lash lines.
Is this eyeliner a really pigmented one? because I've tried a lot of eyeliners but some of them aren't dark enough!
Is this worth buying or can I find something just as good for a cheaper price?
What's special about this eyeliner? How is it compared to liquid liner?
Other colors?
I have oily eyelids and even the high end Urban decay slide on eyeliner to the drugstore rimmel scandal eyeliner still smudge, especially on the corner of my eyes. Anyone have similar situations and have tried this clinique liner?

2014 NHRA: Gumout Partners With Leah Pritchett, Dote Racing Top Fuel Team
Posted by: newsla on Feb 04, 2014 - 04:35 PM
2014 NHRA: Gumout Partners With Leah Pritchett, Dote Racing Top Fuel Team In 2014 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series
Gumout Performance Additives today announced the sponsorship with young drag racing star Leah Pritchett and the Dote Racing Top Fuel dragster team for the 2014 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series.
Gumout, a trusted brand that has offered drivers numerous automotive performance products for nearly 70 years, returns to the NHRA professional drag racing ranks with the partnership with the Ohio-based Top Fuel squad and the talented California native, Pritchett behind the wheel of the Gumout/Dote Racing 8,000-horsepower, nitro-burning dragster.
Gumout became a drag racing staple in the 1970s and 1980s with the legendary âGrumpyâs Toyâ Pro Stock car campaigned by Hall of Famer Bill âGrumpyâ Jenkins. Gumout expanded its motorsports activities following the Jenkins association with a variety of competitions included circle track racing, road racing, boat racing and off-road racing.
âWe are extremely excited to return to NHRA professional drag racing in a big way with Leah Pritchett and the Dote Racing Top Fuel organization,â said Rusty Waples, Global Group Brand Manager at ITW Global Brands. âLeah is one of the bright young stars of drag racing and a great spokesperson for Gumout. Leah and the Dote Racing team will assist us in communicating with our retailers and customers throughout the country. We canât wait to see Leah in the Gumout Top Fuel dragster at the season-opening NHRA Winternationals at Pomona (Feb. 6-9).â
Pritchett, 25, grew up near the famed Pomona Raceway in Redlands, Calif., and actually competed in her first drag racing event at Pomona at age eight in the NHRA Junior Dragster program. The Cal State University, San Bernardino communications graduate worked her way through the drag racing ranks including driving in the Pro Mod division and Nostalgia Funny Cars before entering the Top Fuel division in 2013.
âI am so thrilled to have Gumout as a partner for the 2014 NHRA Mello Yello Series,â said Pritchett, who now lives in Avon, Ind. âI have been drag racing for most of my life as I began at age 8. I have worked on the race cars in smaller divisions but now I am driving for Dote Racing in the national tour. It is so exciting to have Gumout as our teamâs major sponsor.â
Pritchett, who recently married Torrence Racing Top Fuel car chief Gary Pritchett, was an NHRA Division 7 champion at age nine, NHRA Wicked West Coast champion at age 16 and was the first woman driver to break the five-second barrier in a Nostalgia Funny Car. She also won the NHRA Hot Rod Heritage Series championship and scored multiple victories in the Pro Mod class including wins at Charlotte and Las Vegas.
Pritchett, whose maiden name was Pruett, gained her NHRA Funny Car license in 2008 and began piloting Top Fuel dragsters in 2013. She qualified in her first NHRA national event in Top Fuel last year at the NHRA Winternationals in Pomona.
The Dote Family, a three generation racing team, began in drag racing in the 1980s and is currently operated by Mike Dote, and his wife, Connie. The Dote Racing racing team joined the Top Fuel ranks in 2009 and is focused on creating a top caliber effort in 2014 with the new Gumout involvement.
The Dote Racing team, led by crew chief Doug Kuch, is based in Monroe, Ohio and hired Pritchett for the 2013 NHRA season opener in Pomona. In just her second Top Fuel race, Pritchett upset reigning NHRA Mello Yello Top Fuel champion Shawn Langdon in the first round at Phoenix. At Topeka, Leah advanced to the semi-finals with victories over Top Fuel race winners Anton Brown and Doug Kalitta.
âWe believe that Leah and the entire Dote Racing team can be successful in 2014 with the new Gumout sponsorship,â said Kuch. âWhile Leah is fairly new to the Top Fuel class, she is a veteran drag racer who has the skills to be very competitive in the sportâs top category. With Gumout onboard, we feel we have a solid base to give Leah and Dote Racing the proper tools to go after the top teams in Top Fuel.â
Since 1945, Gumout has been Americaâs trusted performance additives brand â they have earned this trust by providing high quality products that consumers need to get the most out of every mile. Gumout products have been proven in the lab, on the street and on the track using cutting edge technology that maximizes performance in any type of vehicle.

Twelve Chicago Grocers Join Program to Support Local Organic Farmers
CHICAGO -- Twelve grocers during the FamilyFarmed.org EXPO's Local Organic Trade Show here yesterday confirmed their commitment to stock and sell food that is grown in the Midwest by certified organic farmers.
CHICAGO -- Twelve grocers during the FamilyFarmed.org EXPO's Local Organic Trade Show here yesterday confirmed their commitment to stock and sell food that is grown in the Midwest by certified organic farmers.
The retailers--Dominick's, Cub Foods, Fox and Obel, Peapod, Sunset Foods, Treasure Island, Caputo's, Stanley's, Country Fair, Market Place on Oakton, and Newleaf Natural Grocery--also agreed to carry products bearing the FamilyFarmed.org label. Whole Foods Market, a founding retailer in the FamilyFarmed.org program, already carries many products from participating local organic producers in its Chicago units.
FamilyFarmed.org is a project of Sustain, a non-profit organization working for a healthy environment. One element of Sustain's work has been to support the growth of a regional food system in the Midwest, by establishing markets for many organic and sustainable family farms in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.
The organization is designed to connect local organic farmers and processors with new buyers, many of which are supermarkets. "We aim to make it easier for supermarkets to merchandise locally-grown organic foods," Jim Slama, president of Sustain and producer of the expo told Progressive Grocer. "We place the farmer's market experience on a label."
Speaking with PG from the show floor, Robertino Presta, c.e.o. of Caputo's Fresh Markets, Addison, Ill., said of his operation's involvement, "Everyone is health-conscious now, and consumers are asking for locally grown organic foods," Presta said. "But we've been [supporting local farmers] since 1958, when my father-in-law Angelo Caputo began making trips to the Benton Harbor Market in Michigan."
What Presta especially likes about locally-grown is the unsurpassed freshness of the product. "We'll call the folks at the Benton Harbor market in the morning, they pick our orders [from the field, not a warehouse] that evening, and it is on our shelves the next afternoon. You can't beat that for fresh."
In the new program, Chicago shoppers will be able to identify these locally-grown products by the new FamilyFarmed.org label, which can be used on fresh fruits and vegetables, meats, dairy products, and on processed foods. It includes the FamilyFarmed.org logo, the place of production (for example, Illinois or Chicago), and the name of the farmer or processor who created the product.
The labels are designed to send people to the FamilyFarmed.org Web site to encourage a deeper connection with the producer. On the site, consumers can gain access to information about producers, including a picture of the farm family or processor and a description of the products and growing methods.
Chicago organic distributor Goodness Greeness will use the FamilyFarmed.org label on all its locally grown private label products. Goodness Greeness will also distribute FamilyFarmed.org products to many of the leading retailers in the Midwest.

Rottweiler Diet and Nutrition
Rottweiler diet and nutrition
You will find that the best Rottweiler health care you can give your dog is through a proper diet and you will need to provide your Rottweiler with the right balance of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins. When any of these compounds are absent from the food, the Rottweiler will fall sick of something or other.
As per the standard Rottweiler care, the puppy should be fed four or five times a day until it is ten to 12 months old. The adult Rottweiler could be fed twice per day, though some veterinarians okay feeding it once a day. In order to ensure a good appetite for your dog, establish a timely routine for its food. The best time for feeding is at breakfast and dinnertime of the family.
The puppy food should be changed into adult food gradually when you observe that the dog has reached about 90 percent of its total weight. The change can take place over four to seven days in order to allow that Rottweilers digestive system adjust to it.
Good Diet According To The Standard Rottweiler Care
The best Rottweiler care indicates that its diet and nutrition includes meat, fish, milk, vegetables and cereals as each one contributes to the health of the Rottweiler. In spite of popular belief, your Rottweiler can be purely vegetarian and still be healthy. Though these dogs relish meat and blood, they will thrive just as well on a total vegetarian diet, provided they have the necessary balance of protein and other dietary elements.
Rottweilers are avid meat eaters and it is necessary for their diet for it to be more in raw form than cooked form. However, unless you are sure that the meat is of high quality do not feed it to the dog as it may be contaminated and will harm the dog more than help it.
The right balance of diet and nutrition is of paramount importance and the Rottweiler care principles dictate standard rations for an adult dog per day include an equal amount of meat and cereal, slightly less vegetables along with bread, animal oil and salt.
As per the dictates of Rottweiler care, you will know that you are using the right diet when the dog maintains its weight, has a good coat luster and is as active. An ill fed dog would be sickly, and Rottweilers in particular, tend to catch all the viruses possible when they are underfed since the have a weak immune system.

I work in social media and often look at what is being said about Air
Canada via twitter. The same thing over and over and over again.
Bottom line it is all lip service. I will never fly with Air Canada,
this is the last time they will get my travel dollars etc etc. Yet the
same people keep coming back over and over and over again. Fools and
their money are quickly parted as the old saying goes. About 75% of
the Canadian population lives approximately 150 kms from the American
border. So if you are whining and complaining about not having any
other choice than Air Canada. Hop on a bus down to the nearest
American airport. And for those of you that do have a choice standing
right in front of you then pay the extra few dollars and stop your
bitching. Hell I travel all over the Canada, the United States and the
world. And in some cases have paid several hundred dollars more just
to avoid Air Canada and have never been happier. The few hundred
dollars I spend to avoid flying with Air Canada is money in the bank
baby. The time bank. Since once Air Canada has robbed you of several
hours of your life with their delays no 10% of your next flight will
ever be able to bring that wasted time back. So for all of the people
bitching about Air Canada I have a few words for you. You are all
idiots. Since you go into something knowing full well of the degree of
service you will be getting and you whine and complain? No sympathy
here for you. Pay the few extra dollars hop on a bus just don't fly
with Air Canada. Since no matter how much you whine and complain about
their crappy customer service, their late flights it ain't going to
change people. That is unless 5 hours out of your life is worth 10%
off your next flight.

St. Merryn (Cornish: S. Meryn) is a civil parish and village in north Cornwall, England. It is about 3.5 miles (5.6 km) south of the fishing port of Padstow and 11 miles (18 km) northeast of the coastal resort of Newquay.
The 3,798-acre parish of St Merryn is bounded by a millstream to the south that separates it from the St. Ervan and St. Eval parishes; more than 5.5 miles (8.9 km) of coastline along the Atlantic Ocean; and the Padstow parish and Lyn stream.
St. Merryn was part of the St. Columb Major Rural District from 1894 until 1934 and located in Wadebridge Rural District from 1934 until 1968. In 1968 Wadebridge Rural District was expanded and became Wadebridge and Padstow Rural District from 1968 until 1974.
Research Tips
One of the many maps available on A Vision of Britain through Time is one from the Ordnance Survey Series of 1900 illustrating the parish boundaries of Cornwall at the turn of the 20th century. This map blows up to show all the parishes and many of the small villages and hamlets.
