Justin Bowden, a spokesman for the union which represents EA staff, says Communities Secretary Eric Pickles is partly responsible for the hostility towards workers in the Berkshire village.
"This report of hostility from the residents on the Thames is a direct result of the irresponsible attack by Eric Pickles and others on the EA," he said.
"His incitement has led to the very people on the frontline who are actually helping to alleviate the situation bearing the brunt of people's frustrations."
An Environment Agency spokesman said: "Some of our staff faced verbal abuse whilst working in Wraysbury on Monday.
"For a short while, we temporarily withdrew staff on the advice of the police.
"Our staff were back in Wraysbury yesterday and again today, working alongside members of the community and colleagues from other agencies as part of the continuing effort to deal with this exceptional period of weather and flooding."
A Department for Communities and Local Government spokeswoman said: "The flooding will be extremely stressful for all involved, but there is never an excuse for verbal abuse.
"Ministers have publicly praised the hard work of the on-the-ground Environment Agency staff in challenging times."
Mr Pickles found himself at the centre of a row after he made barbed comments about EA's performance during the crisis and apologised for following their advice.
But the EA hit back at Mr Pickles, labelling his criticism "ill-informed and unfair".
The chairman of the agency, Lord Smith, acknowledged mistakes had been made, but blamed the Treasury's spending rules and a lack of co-operation from councils.
The GMB Union has also highlighted concerns over "ludicrous" planned job cuts at the agency.
"For more than seven weeks since Christmas the Environment Agency's staff have been run ragged helping and supporting the victims of flooding," Mr Bowden said.
"GMB members have been working double and triple shifts around the clock to protect and assist.
"It is noted by these staffs that the Prime Minister has repeatedly refused to say the proposed cut of another 1,700 jobs at the EA will be reversed."
The union has claimed that most of the extra funding announced by the Government in response to the crisis will be spent on capital projects, saving few - if any - of the jobs under threat due to budget cuts.

How to setup Thunderbird on dual boot XP/7
My current mail program on XP is Mozilla Thunderbird. I have W7 on it's own partition on the computer and would like to use Thunderbird with W7 but share all the profiles and mail from XP. Ideally, if I access mail when on XP it would show up when back on W7 and vice versa. I googled this but either the info is really old or primarily for doing this with Linux and XP.
|My System Specs
|28 May 2009
Win7 x64 + x86
As I recall, you can do this by setting up TBird on one OS, then (from the other OS) you'll change the profile store information to point at the profile on the OS that you set it up on.
I did something similar by setting up my profile on a separate hard drive - but found that things were too confusing in the long run. I ended up using PopPeeper on all my systems to check my email, and kept TBird only on one system (for actually receiving it). If necessary, I'm able to respond to emails in PopPeeper or I access the webmail server for my different email accounts while on the other systems. FYI - I use Hotmail Popper (last freeware version) and YPops for my TBird installation.
|My System Specs
|28 May 2009
Windows 10 Pro x64 x3, Ubuntu
You can point the profile of your second (W7?), install of Thunderbird,using the thunderbird.exe -p command, (type it into the search bar), and browsing to the original profile.
One thing you may want to consider however is if possible it may be better to utilize IMAP for your mail (if your provider supports this), as this system automatically synchronizes your online and offline mail store it will allow you to use whatever mail client you wish on each OS, (assuming again that they support IMAP)
|My System Specs
|28 May 2009
As someone mentioned earlier.
You can move your profile to a drive then when you setup the account on windows 7 you change that account email link to the one you saved from your xp install. I currently do this for backup purposes.
I have my Thunderbird email accounts in a folder called mail in my User Directory, and then all i have to do is back that up to my server and i am done. I can access this from any OS on my computer so long as i change the account settings in Thunderbird.
If you need a walkthrough Ill be happy to help, i'll even include pictures for your convience.
|My System Specs
|29 May 2009
Windows 7 Home Premium x64
I've done as Avien did. I have two 250 GB drives in my system. One contains my 2 OS partitions (XP/7), the other contains my data. On the root of that one is my Mozilla profiles folder, I then just ran the profile manager for Thunderbird/Firefoox before I started each program the first time and pointed to that directory for the profile.
As it turns out, I've been doing most of my browsing/email in 7 and just playing COD4 in XP for the better FPS and use of Ventrilo. Coincidentally, I have a game that actually plays better in 7 than in XP.
|My System Specs

Avien, I'd like to take you up on that tutorial.

Will do when i have time. Might be later since I have a wedding to attend today and am apart of it. Based on what you posted on my profile page you got it all sorted out so hopefully you won't mind if it takes a little bit.

Disabled Vet
As a disabled vet, I quit using the VA years ago d/t the poor quality and fragmented care. It took numerous referrals and several years to get into the Rheumatology Clinic and I have yet to get an appointment with the ENT Clinic. Their motto is "Hurry up and wait"! I was discharged 38 years ago and I've been in the system since 1978. I had no choice when I was uninsured, but thanks to a job with insurance, now I do. They do not treat the whole person, just a collection of symptoms for which they hand out bottles of pills. The system is so fragmented, it certainly is not set up for working vets. Just a few of the statements I've been on the receiving end of, "you don't have an appointment today, that appointment was for you to call and schedule an appointment", "we don't have time to take care of all these problems", "shut up, I'll ask the questions and you answer", "with a service connected back problem you don't have a right to be pregnant", "this test was not designed to tell what's wrong with your back, but there is a problem", "I don't know what's wrong with your back, but I'll be happy to cut on you to find out", "it's not your back, it's female problems". I've been treated at the Birmingham VAMC, Montgomery VAMC and Tuskegee VAMC. Veterans should have a choice for quality health care and distance should not qualify that choice..
manuelhm, md
Every service member who is honorably discharged should be automatically enrolled into the VA Health Care system. His or her military and health history while in the military should be incorporated into the VA medical records. This way the service member doesn't have to bring his or her DD-14 to get enrolled or established into the VA. With this method, nobody can 'game the system' in order to look good and get bonuses..
Relative to the CBOC, it is fine for primary care purposes, but if the Veteran needs to see a specialist, or needs a procedure, he or she must drive to the VA facility which is often >40 miles away. It places undue burden, for example, in the case of a colonoscopy or outpatient procedure involving anesthesia, where the Veteran cannot drive home and needs to find a friend or relative who can accompany them. This will make specialty care more accessible and should not really impact the overall coordination of care the Veteran receives from his or her primary care VA physician at the CBOC location..
May I also suggest the possibility of VA opening more local CBOCs and expanding the level of services available there..

I enjoy watching Russell much more than Ben. Well, except that I feel like I need to bleach my eyes whenever he's wearing his dirty gray underwear with his gut hanging out. It's not a muffin top. It's a popover. He's going all out in the challenges and is entertaining. I'm with Krom that I'll enjoy him unless he turns into a hypocrite.
I'm intrigued to see what happens with Russell and the HII if in fact he can't actually use it because he found it in his own camp.
Ben is perhaps my least favorite Survivor ever. Arrogant little creep. Yes that challenge was violent and meant to be violent. Tripping like that would have been a fifteen yard personal foul penalty in football. Calling Jeff a sissy because he threw him out when he tripped Russell after they were all warned is ridiculous.
I'm really hoping that the "dumb ass girls" start to get a clue and not let themselves get manipulated. Unless Foa Foa gets it together they may be the second tribe in Survivor history to send one player to the merge.
"I miss Darva Conger." - Phonegrrrl
IMO just because Russell haa a foul sexist mouth and calls someone "dumb ass girls" doesn't mean that WE have to.
He has no respect fot women--I can't "admire" him for behaving in that nasty women-hating way.
I am not completely oblivious to the lack of real in reality television, but I always thought Survivor showcased more real than a lot of the others. This season, however, seems so staged to me with regards to Russell and his antics. It is so obvious to that he is a staged villain because fans like his antics. Ben on the other hand is a true real villain because he is acting like himself, and is vile and rude.
An important difference between Russell and Ben is that Ben does not appear to have any self-control, or any sense that he needs to. They both feel entitled, but Ben naturally so and Russell because of his manipulations.
My gosh, where does Casting find these people?
Yasmin is not my favorite character, but for Ben to make that ghetto comment and call Jeff and his Survivor rules sissy just floored me. I realize these people are playing a game, but how the heck do they face their real life friends and family after they appear on this show?
Is anyone else sick of Russell running around in those horrible shorts with his protruding belly? Way too much of a visual for me. :nono

Interesting the challange we just had is a survivor production crew game. In past seasons the production people would play a game on breaks with what ever balls, basketball/football/soccer, ect and throw them at trash cans at each end. Since it often rains most times in was muddy ( and lots of beer) Probst and soon upper fellows were watching one day and said " hey this may make a good challange"

So the search for a new head basketball coach at the University of Utah continues some 2½ weeks after Jim Boylen was fired from that position. I wrote in this space just after it happened about possible criteria that would make the new coach a potential success for the Utes.
I got a ton of feedback from listeners and readers on that column and subsequent discussions on my radio show. Many agreed and many others disagreed with my assessment of what Dr. Chris Hill needs to look for in his next men's hoops coach.
But the one thing I keep getting over and over again from Utah basketball fans and people that follow the program is that Utah needs someone who will "excite and energize the fanbase" to bring fans back to the Huntsman Center. To be very honest with you, I couldn't disagree more!
What the University of Utah basketball program needs right now is someone who will WIN games — period, end of discussion. Everything else right now is just simply background noise.
Nobody was more energized and excited about Utah basketball than Jim Boylen. When he got the job four years ago, he spent countless hours going out and speaking to supporter groups, fraternities and sororities. He did all the appearances that anyone asked him to do, and what was the result? Attendance continued to decline and the buzz around Utah hoops did the same. This is because the product on the floor for most of his tenure didn't live up to the long-standing tradition of what Ute fans have come to expect from their men's basketball team.
Winning is the tonic that will cure what is ailing Utah basketball fans and their sagging attendance at games. Going to the NCAA Tournament one season and missing for the next two isn't what I'm talking about, either. So many people have pointed to the Sweet 16 run of Ray Giacoletti and Jim Boylen's MWC title and NCAA berth in his second season, but what was missing was the follow-up success.
Look around — this isn't just a Utah issue, either. Attendance at BYU was down at the end of the Steve Cleveland era and in the beginning of the Dave Rose era, but as BYU began to have sustained success, fans once again began to fill the Marriott Center.
So the search for the next-in-line at Utah continues, and we all continue to investigate and speculate on who the next bench boss at the Huntsman Center might be and what they should be. Keep in mind that winning over the fans and impressing at the press conference is great, but winning on the court is ultimately what will bring fans back to the Huntsman Center and "energize the fan base."34 comments on this story
Speaking of the Utes' coaching search, the one name that continues to emerge the more people I speak to is former Montana Grizzlies head coach and current New Jersey Nets assistant Larry Krystkowiak. On Monday, I spoke to people with knowledge of the search, and I was informed that Krystkowiak had interviewed with Dr. Hill and that he felt he was a leading candidate for the Utah job. Former Alabama head coach and current ESPN analyst Mark Gottfried is also a name that continues to be mentioned in conjunction with the Utah opening.
Bill Riley can be heard as the radio voice of the University of Utah on game days and also on weekdays from 2-6 p.m. on the "Bill and Spence Show" on ESPN Radio 700 AM.

With two months until the official filing deadline for the 2014 Democratic primary, six Dallas County prosecutors are already seeking felony court judicial benches.
Five will face incumbent Democrats who took office in 2007, while one will face a defense attorney after a Democratic judge resigned to run for district attorney as a Republican.
A look at the races:
265th District Court
Jennifer Bennett has been at the district attorney's office for 13 years. She is challenging state District Judge Mark Stoltz, a former public defender.
Bennett said she is running because of the high number of defendants in jail awaiting trial. She said the 265th is inefficient. "That affects the defendants because they can't get their day in court. That affects victims of crimes, that affect all of us," Bennett said.
Stoltz said he is baffled by Bennett's reasoning. "In seven years on the bench, no one from the DA's office has ever come to me and said, 'Judge, you've got too many defendants in jail,'" Stoltz said. "I'm strict. If you're on bond for [a third] DWI and drink, I pull your bond. If you are on bond for domestic violence and [have] any contact with the victim, you are going to jail."
282nd District Court
Amber Givens has been with the DA's office since 2012. She is challenging state District Judge Andy Chatham, who won the bench after stints as a private attorney and public defender.
Givens said defendants are waiting too long for court dates in this court.
"My job is justice. Justice is a chameleon, sometimes it's a dismissal, sometimes it's a plea bargain." Sometimes, she said, it's seeking a conviction.
Chatham said he has a "simple judicial philosophy: Be fair to each side, follow the law, send dangerous criminals to prison, help those on probation rebuild their lives, and keep costs low.
"The monsters in our community have received lengthy prison sentences, and we have had phenomenal success stories from many of those put on probation."
283rd District Court
Justin Lord, a chief felony prosecutor, has worked for the DA's office since 2001. He is challenging state District Judge Rick Magnis, a former public defender.
Lord cited a high number of people awaiting trial in jail and the high costs of running the court as his reasons for challenging Magnis, the presiding judge for the felony courts.
"These delays in getting cases to court are also stressful on defendants' friends and family members who anxiously await the outcome of the case. Additionally, victims of crime deserve to have their cases heard expeditiously, and the high number of defendants on the 283rd jail chain means justice is delayed for crime victims," Lord said.
Magnis said he sped up the rate at which child abuse cases are tried and developed a fairer method of appointing attorneys that kept the county from losing grant money.
Magnis is also set to begin a program that requires intense supervision for defendants granted probation in family violence cases. He is working with local shelters, Dallas police, county probation and the DA's office "to streamline the disposition of intimate partner violence cases involving high risk offenders."
291st District Court
There is no incumbent in this race after Susan Hawk resigned last month to campaign for district attorney. Stephanie Mitchell joined the DA's office in 2008. She will face defense attorney and former public defender Susan Anderson.
Mitchell said the 291st's program for mentally ill offenders made the court appealing to her because she had an uncle who battled mental illness and drug addiction. Mitchell said the court needs more accountability and jury trials. "I've accomplished as much as I can as a prosecutor," she said.
Anderson, an attorney for 18 years, said "judges should punish those who need to be punished, rehabilitate those who can be rehabilitated and have the wisdom to know what to do and when. That wisdom comes from legal experience in the courtroom and life experience out of it."
292nd District Court
Brandon Birmingham, a chief felony prosecutor who joined the DA's office in 2002, began running against state District Judge Larry Mitchell after the judge's law license was put on probation by the State Bar of Texas for not communicating with a client when Mitchell was in private practice.
"I saw that changes should be made in that court — both in terms of efficiency and ethics," Birmingham said. "I believe my experience, my record, and work ethic make me the clear choice."
Mitchell said his problems with the State Bar — four misconduct cases in 34 years as an attorney — are "in my past." Mitchell said none of the reprimands were about the quality of his work, just his communication skills.
"I want to be judged by the job I'm doing on bench," Mitchell said. "To really determine how a judge is doing, you need to know if a judge is there and the judge knows about the law and treats both sides fairly."
204th District Court
The most-watched and probably the most contentious judicial race in the 2014 Dallas County Democratic primary could be prosecutor Tammy Kemp's challenge to Judge Lena Levario for 204th District Court.
Kemp is one of six known prosecutors seeking a felony court bench. Levario is the judge who earlier this year held Kemp's boss, District Attorney Craig Watkins, in contempt for refusing to testify at a hearing where Watkins was accused of prosecutorial misconduct. Watkins was later acquitted but has since launched a grand jury investigation into whether Levario's decision was improperly influenced by other judges.
Candidates can't officially file to run for office for another month. But Levario and Kemp are already trading jabs about each other's legal fitness.
Levario points to a 2012 ruling by another state district judge that Kemp withheld evidence during the trial of a woman convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. The ruling said Kemp did not disclose to the defense before the trial that in a 911 recording, a witness said the suspect was a black male. The defendant was a black female. The ruling also found Kemp did not disclose that the witness picked someone else out of a lineup before choosing the defendant, Telisa Blackman.
The other judge ruled that Kemp denied Blackman a fair trial and that jurors may have reached a different decision with the other evidence.
But the Court of Criminal Appeals disagreed and said the outcome would not have changed the verdict if the evidence had been disclosed.
"A person that has committed such prosecutorial misconduct should not be a lawyer," Levario said. "She should not be a prosecutor. And, she definitely should not be a judge."
Kemp, who is in her second stint as a Dallas County prosecutor, said she offers "no apologies for seeking justice for our county's most vulnerable victims," adding that Levario was trying to "substitute her flawed judgment" for the appellate court's decision.
Kemp said the appellate court has reversed rulings by Levario when the judge was "helping out" defendants. Kemp cited Levario's 2009 ruling that held the state's continuous sexual assault of a child statute unconstitutional as an example of "one of the many cases in which the current judge has had to be reversed by an appellate court."
Levario, who first served on the bench from 1993 to 1995, was elected in 2006 and re-elected in 2010. She said no one should get "the impression that I am a softy with criminals … I have a reputation for being pretty tough with defendants."

League ready to go after daughter's birth
League ready to go after daughter's birth
SEATTLE -- Mariners reliever Brandon League and his wife, Sasha, welcomed their third daughter into the world on Wednesday, then the All-Star closer was back with the team Thursday and ready for work again. League and his wife flew back to Seattle from the All-Star Game in Phoenix on a private plane and then had labor induced Wednesday, with Cali Sol League arriving at seven pounds, 15 ounces and 21 inches. "It all went smoothly," League said Thursday. "We got back about 1 o'clock, went to the doctor around 8, induced, baby, released today. Everything was perfect."
Cali Sol joins older sisters Skyler, 5, and Lexi, 4. And proud papa said the birth put everything at the All-Star Game into perspective. "That wasn't too hectic," League said of the All-Star whirlwind. "That was that, then the baby came and it put everything else into check. "It's always like the best experience. You think you'd get used to it or wouldn't react the same, but it's the same every time. It's a miracle." League missed an early workout Thursday prior to batting practice as manager Eric Wedge gathered his team for a light workout to knock the rust off after the three-day break, but League arrived shortly after and was available to pitch in Thursday night's game.

A world war and his own inglorious death interrupted the work Mussolini began. When these greater events were not threatening its progress, Italy's archaeologists poked into the subway excavation and held up the work, to make sure that the tunnelers were not destroying any buried relics of antiquity. But somehow, despite all handicaps, Rome's subway got built. Last week, after 18 years and $20 million, it was opened to the public.

An agronomist says much of southern Wisconsin's corn crop could be lost unless the region gets a significant amount of rain in the next week.
The National Weather Service doesn't have any soaking rain in the forecast in the next week, although there's a 50 percent chance for showers Friday and Saturday.
Landmark Services Cooperative agronomist Joe Speich says the lack of rain has shut down the field corn's pollination process in the critical 10 days after it tassels. If the corn plant doesn't pollinate, there will be no ears.
Harvey Kopp tells the State Journal his losses on 900 acres of field corn and 400 acres of sweet corn near Beloit and Albany could climb above $750,000 is it doesn't rain soon. Kopp does not have crop insurance.

CONWAY, S.C. (AP) Arlon Harper scored 20 points and Will Saunders added 18 as Charleston Southern, the No. 5 seed out of the North Division, beat Campbell, seeded fourth from the South Division, 81-71 in the opening round of the Big South Conference tournament Wednesday night.
Charleston Southern (13-17) trailed by as many as 15 points in the first half and went into the break down 42-33.
The Buccaneers hit 3-pointers on three consecutive possessions during a 13-5 spurt early in the second half to make it 53-50 with 13 minutes left.
A 13-3 run a few minutes later gave CSU its first lead, 68-64, since the game's opening minutes, when it led 2-1.
Charleston Southern dominated the glass, outrebounding Campbell 41-26 overall and 13-4 on the offensive glass.
Reco McCarter paced the Fighting Camels (12-20) with 19 points.
The Buccaneers will take on Coastal Carolina in the quarterfinals on Friday.

When we turn on a newscast, we expect a fairly seamless reporting of events, though we're well aware that things can sometimes go awry — as they did in the case of a recent newscast on Idaho's KIDK Channel 3, a local CBS affiliate, which ran into a little snafu with some of the weather graphics. Bar graphs of the weather information began to slowly invade the screen like a flesh-eating disease, and the timing was not auspicious, to say the least. Though the newscasters commendably soldiered on while apologizing, they couldn't contain their giggles while informing viewers that a twenty-year-old Bonneville County student had been struck by a car, with his head going through a windshield.
The anchors also laughed through the reporting of a nine-vehicle accident, and a rear-ending of a Jeep by a Toyota which hospitalized two. Why couldn't the weather graphics hijack the telecast during a story of someone getting pie'd? Oh those mischievous weather graphics! At least it was sunny.

Hybrid Web Mining Framework
With the dramatically quick and explosive growth of information available over the Internet, World Wide Web has become a powerful platform to store, disseminate and retrieve information as well as mine useful knowledge. A user interacts with the Web; there is a wide diversity of user's content they prefer and the navigational patterns they prefer, which results in needing different contents and presentations of information. To improve the Internet service quality and increase the user click rate on websites, it is necessary for a Web developer or designer to know what the user really need to do, predict which pages the user is interested in, and present the customized Web pages to the user by combining user navigational pattern data, web content data and these with website structure data.

As it turns out, "Star Wars: Episode II -- Attack of the Clones" did not put up the numbers on its opening weekend that distributor 20th Century Fox estimated on Sunday.
The studio had estimated that the picture took in $86.2 million from Friday to Sunday, but the final figures show the actual amount was $80 million -- seven percent less than the estimate. The estimates are never a perfect match for the final figures, but they're usually a lot closer than that.
The final figures also show that "Clones" grossed $110.1 million in its first four days in release -- almost $5 million short of the $114.8 million that "Spider-Man" grossed in its first three days. Fox had estimated that "Clones" did more than $116 million from Thursday to Sunday.
Another casualty of the "Clones" revision is the overall box-office record that appeared to have been set over the weekend. With the final numbers in, the U.S. box office take was just $171 million. The existing record -- $176.9 million over the weekend before Thanksgiving 2000 -- still stands.
The family foundation of Walt Disney Co. chairman and CEO Michael Eisner is giving $7 million to Cal State Northridge in Los Angeles, to establish a national center for helping teachers learn to deal with the different ways in which students learn.
University officials expect the money will be used to introduce teachers to the work of North Carolina pediatrician Dr. Mel Levine, whose clinic attracts children from around the world.
Eisner told the Los Angeles Times he subscribes to Levine's theory that it is self evident that different children's minds work differently -- and that each child therefore has a unique way of learning.
"To be humiliated because your mind is wired slightly differently and the teacher doesn't understand that or hasn't been taught that, to me is destroying a human being, and it's like child abuse," Eisner said. "Teachers recognizing the problem is half the solution."
Officials said they would ask the university Board of Trustees to rename the college of education in Eisner's honor.
The tourism economy seems to look pretty bright to Barry Diller, the new head of Vivendi Universal Entertainment.
Tourism took a major economic hit after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, but Diller has now ordered work to go forward on an expansion of the company's theme park operations.
Universal Studios will reportedly make an announcement soon that it is developing three major new attractions at its theme parks in Hollywood, Calif. and Orlando, Fla., based on the animated movie hits "Shrek" and "Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius."
Diller has also authorized a search for possible sites for more theme parks.
Universal Studios Hollywood reported record attendance in the first quarter of 2002, but the spike was largely driven by a promotion that offered guests an annual pass for the purchase of a one-day ticket.
HBO Films has announced that Paul Newman will produce and star in "Empire Falls," based on Richard Russo's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name, and John Leguizamo will direct "Infamous," described as a Latino "Mean Streets."
Daily Variety reported from Cannes that HBO Films' slate also contains a film version of William Trevor's short novel, "My House in Umbria," to be directed by Richard Loncraine ("The Gathering Storm," "Band of Brothers"). It's described as the tragicomic story of a young woman in Italy who writes romance novels to escape a life of hardship in which she was sold at birth by her parents, abused by her adoptive father and eventually turned to prostitution to get enough money to set herself up as a writer.
"Empire Falls" is a blue-collar story about a recently divorced man who runs the local greasy spoon, and the challenges he faces raising a teenage daughter.
Leguizamo will make his directing debut on "Infamous," which was written by Frank Pugliese ("Shot in the Heart," "Homicide: Life in the Street").
HBO plans to show the movies on its U.S. cable operation, but market them for theatrical distribution overseas.
The American Society of Composers and Publishers (ASCAP) honored Tony Bennett and James Taylor with two of its most prestigious awards in Beverly Hills, Calif. Monday night.
The group presented Bennett with its Pied Piper Award -- the most prestigious award that ASCAP gives to an entertainer. Past winners include Fred Astaire, Lena Horne, Frank Sinatra and Barbra Streisand.
James Taylor picked up the ASCAP Founders Award "for his pioneering contributions to music" and his "inimitable style of storytelling." Previous recipients include Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, Joni Mitchell, Smokey Robinson, Stephen Sondheim, Stevie Wonder and the writing team of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller.

ABC/Craig Sjodin
Father knows best in some circles, but not necessarily in Jake Pavelka's.
"I feel that I have probably met my future daughter-in-law today," dad Jim said after meeting one of the two ladies his airline pilot (and Dancing With the Stars contestant!) son was pondering a future with.
Let's just say, the family was really into her, Jake seemed really into her (in love, in fact!), and she was ready to spend the rest of her life with Jake.
So was Papa Pavelka right?
Of course not. What do parents know, anyway?
While it was Tenley Molzahn, 25, whom the Pavelkas thought fit right into their tight-knit dynamic, the rumor mill was right.
Jake is engaged to Vienna Girardi, 23, after popping the question with a Neil Lane-designed princess-cut diamond during the final rose ceremony, which aired tonight.
Forget the Rozlyn drama, forget Ali's premature departure. The moment we were all waiting to see was which girl, Tenley or Vienna, was the first to be escorted by Chris Harrison over to Jake.
Because, in this game, second is always best.
Alas, it was Tenley, emotionally scarred by her first husband and unsure she could love again, who in all her ivory-clad, strapless glory was unwittingly the first one to face Jake.
But while she got the proverbial slap in the face, not one of the two rings an indecisive Jake picked out, she at least had the right attitude, saying she didn't want anything less than a guy who loved her through and through, without a doubt.
And Jake thought something "just didn't feel right" with the squeaky-voiced college admissions officer from Oregon.
The emotional connection was there ("My heart still hurts for you," he told her on the After the Final Rose special), and they obviously didn't seem to have much trouble with the surface romance, but Jake was feeling the fire for Vienna.
He pretty much admitted, however, that Tenley was so perfect in his eyes ("I put her on this pedestal") that he felt he needed to be a certain way, while with Vienna he could be completely himself.
Perhaps because when it came to maturity, he could be the boss in that relationship? (We're just thinking in print here.)
"Jake will see the mistake he made, and I feel bad for him," Tenley said as she rode out of the Bachelor's life—until their contracts reunited them, that is.
But take away the psychology of the whole thing and the circumstances under which Jake and Vienna met, and you've got yourself a lovely proposal.
"Vienna, I love you with everything I have," Jake said as he got down on one knee before her. "Will you marry me?"
And Vienna, who apparently knew she deserved this moment all along, could only cry and whisper, "Oh my God, oh my God...Yes."
(Cue "On the Wings of Love" by Jeffrey Osborne.)

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Turf Renovation' started by Green Side Lawn Care, Nov 15, 2006.
how do you winterise roses
It really depends on what type you are caring for. Hybrid Tea, Shrub, Knock-Out??? Some will require cones, while the newer Knock Out Rose don't need any covering in the winter.
i guess my main question is i have seen some people trim them like 3-4 inches from the ground and then cover them with mulch is that a good way to do it or not
Wait till the first of march and cut them down to 16 inches unless their way overgrown then cut them back now.
you don't do any cutting, just make sure you have enough mulch to protect the roots from the killer frost.
Lots of factors involved, but generally you want to make them less susceptible to breakage due to snow loads and wind damage over the winter. Thin them out, bring them down, and mulch the root area if you have to worry about frost heave. Thawing and re-freezing can leave air spaces around the roots (And roses don't have very good root systems) which can eventually kill the plant, and mulch stabilizes the temperature, reducing or eliminating frost heave.
In the spring, prune the roses according to what you want the growth to do, cut out all dead/discolored wood, and scrape the bud union to promote new meristematic growth which will give you additional canes. Feed them lightly with triple super-phosphate (Stay away from nitrogen) and watch for bugs/mildew.
Good luck!
I will prune back shrub roses a bit in the fall. If the customer has any of the hybrid tea roses or other premium rose, I cut down to 4-5 inches and pop a large rose cone on it. Some people will put mulch in the cone also, but I do not. Have had good success - we are zone 4b-5a.

Joke Submissions
Blond Jokes
Two blonds are on opposite sides of the lake. One calls across to
the other, "How do I get to the other side?"
Two blondes were sitting at a bar. Every so often they would reach up,
give each other a high-5, and say, "Six months!!!" This went on all
night. Finally the bartender could take it no more and asked what in
the world they were celebrating. The blondes sheepishly looked at each
other, then confessed with pride beyond bounds... "Well, we just finished
a puzzle. The box said 2-3 years, but we finished it in just six months!"
Q: Why did the blonde scale the chain-link fence?
This blonde wife decides one day that she is sick and tired of all these
blonde jokes and how all blondes are perceived as stupid, so she decides
to show her husband that blondes really are smart. While her husband
is off at work, she decides that she is going to paint a couple of rooms
in the house.
One day a blonde woman was driving down the road when she passed another

An airplane was flying to New York when a blond passenger got out of
her seat in Coach and proceeded to sit down in the First Class Section.
The stewardess explained to her that her ticket was for Coach, and she
must sit in her assigned seat, but the blond only replied, "I'm blond
and I'm beautiful and I'm going to New York, and I'm going to sit where
I want!" The stewardess got the head steward to try to reason with the
blond, but once again she refused to move, saying, "I'm blond and I'm
beautiful and I'm going to New York, and I'll sit where I want!" The
steward got the co-pilot to talk to the woman, but with the same result.
Three women walk into a bar: a brunette, a redhead and a blonde. The
bartender asks the brunette, "What'll you have, hon?" The brunette replies,
"A B.L." The bartender scratches his head and says, "You know, I've
been tending bar for fifteen years and I never heard of a B.L. What
is it?" "A Bud Light, you moron!", exclaims the brunette. So the bartended
gets her a Bud Light.
Judi was bored with driving her BMW. She fancied something a bit more
individual, perhaps an MG convertible. That week, she visited her local

the second woman was given the chance to speak, she screamed "flood!!"
She too escaped. Now it was time for the final woman, a natural blond.
After seeing how the previous girls had gotten away, she too tried her
hand at the trick. "Any last words?" the guard asked. The woman nodded
her head and called out "FIRE!" You can only guess what happened next.
Three blonde are stuck on an island. When one day they come upon a lamp.

is about a man who is threatening to jump off a bridge. The brunette
says to the blonde, "I bet you $50 that he jumps!" The blonde replies,
"You're on." The story proceeds, and sure enough, the man jumps off
the bridge. Having lost the bet, the blonde forks over $50. The brunette
says, rather sheepishly, "I really can't accept your $50. I watched
the 5:00 news and the same story aired, so I already knew that he would
jump." The blonde says, "No, I insist you keep my money. I watched the
5:00 news too, and I didn't think he'd do it again!"
A blonde is down on her luck, so she decides to take drastic measures.
She goes to the local park to kidnap a child and ask for ransom. She

the Blonde." She pulls a little boy aside, pins the note to his jacket
and tells him to take it to his mommy. The next day, the blonde returns
to the oak tree to find a bag with 20,000 dollars in it and a note which
read, "Here's your money, but I can't believe one blonde would do this
to another."

"Was incredibly doubtful but it works!!!"
I have been on a sugar consuming bender. And was trying to cut down but just couldn't seem to find a way to do it. On a daily basis I would go to work thinking I'll be fine and then find sweets at desks that made me full back into the same consuming routine.
This is my first hypnosis experience and I'm still struggling to explain it. I am fully aware of what is being said to me and somehow feel awake but the IMPORTANT part is, the message works. an entire week with artificial sugar products. Even if I'm in the shops and see something I would of happily brought before I just feel numb to those products.
I would say listen to the track in the morning and not at night. the last message is to wake up and be wide awake, something I wasn't prepared for on the first listen.
Overall I'm really impressed, I listen to the message every day and will do that for the first couple of weeks to embed the message, really surpassed my expectations in a freaky good way!
"loved the majestic apple tree"
almost didnt want to leave the beautiful island and this tree😀😀😀 lovely imagery,, sugar seems to be unappealing now too funnily enough 😊
"Is he serious?"
I'm sorry but this is a total waste of time. At the end, he plugs his website where I expect you are asked to hand over your cash for more rubbish. Very disappointed.
"this does seem to work"
this for some reason is helping me reduce my sugar consumption :) I will continue to listen
literally feel this working. it has helped me to relax and has improved my food choices.

Hope you already had this information, but just in case.
The family may have been in other counties, and may never have moved due to
changes in counties.
I attended the COGS meeting about two years ago and a speaker stated that
his relatives had lived in 7 counties and three states and had NEVER MOVED.
I am sure you have read census line by line.
In several instances, names are spelled nothing like they are spelled. One
census taker wrote down Clayton, Pon for my relative who was Pugh, Clayton.
I found this reading line by line. In another instance the name looked like
Henderson, Egbert, again reading line by line, I found the family living
next door to her parents. And I too would have transcribed the last name as
Henderson but it was Herndon.
County creation dats for surrounding counties:
Clarke (25) - December 5, 1801
Jackson County.
a.. Elbert (13) - December 10, 1790
Wilkes County.
Franklin (9) - February 25, 1784
Cherokee cession of May 31, 1783 and Creek cession of November 1, 1783, an
original County.
Greene (11) - February 3, 1786
Washington County.
Jackson (22) - February 11, 1796
Franklin County.
Madison (38) - December 5, 1811
Clarke, Elbert, Franklin, Jackson and Oglethorpe Counties.
a.. Morgan (32) - December 10, 1807
Baldwin County.
Oglethorpe (19) - December 19, 1793
a.. Oconee (135) - February 25, 1875
Wilkes County.
Wilkes (8) - February 5, 1777
Cherokee cession and Creek cession both of June, 1, 1773, an original County
Different researchers spell the last name differently and it may be found
that way in the documents that are found.
Joshua Epps married Mary Bent 27 Sep 1840 Clarke Co., GA.
Some of the researchers think this Bent may have been Bryant.
Another researcher spelled the last name as shown below:
Joshua EPPS b: 1817 in GA
Mary (Polly) BRIANT b: abt 1825
John P Bryant married Cooper, Virginia 17 Sept 1833 Madison Co., GA.
I believe Oglethorpe Co., GA has a 1800 census in the Oglethorpe library.
Would this be his son? I assume you have looked at the death certs in the
Georgia Virtual online vault?
Title Bryant, John Pinkney
Birth Date 1848-05-05
Age at Death 71 years 9 months 26 days
County of Death Chattooga

I sometimes look at the Bryant information because a Bryant/Bent/Briant
married an Epps and I am researching the Epps lines.
Good luck.

I am a proud Lancashire lad and veryaware of the 'wars of the Roses' thang with that bunch o'er th'ill in Yarkshire. However, i was wondering if there are any other big rivalries in the country? Do Devonites hate Cornwallians? Sussex v Essex?
Chat Forum
County rivalries?
Gloucester Rugby club have a massive rivalry with Bristol.
Makes for a fantastic atmosphere at Kingsholm.
Im from the Worcestershire/Gloucestershire/Herefordshire border areas and TBH dont really sense any kind of rivalry, more of an "English county" compatability. Much the same history, culture and common objectives (we all hate the Welsh...:) kidding!) with just enough variation to keep things entertaining.
I dont get all this. I'm a proud lancashire lad but to be quite honest I couldnt give a flying tat about yorkshire etc. Mind you, I hate team sports and the whole rivalry thing anyway.
And I am Yorkshire born and bred - but I don't 'hate' people from Lancashire or even mildly dislike them.
My dad was a Yorkshireman (born and bred Knaresborough like myself) but supported Manchester United.
Two of my best friends are originally from Bolton.
I just cannot understand why anyone would dislike someone based on where they are from.
I also have incurred the wrath of fellow Leeds fans when I have refused to 'Stand up if you hate Manyuu' at matches.
Imbeciles, all off them.
Essex boy here. Sussex??? Why would we care about them?
Suffolk on the other hand, well it's just one big extended family really. They're good at swimming though - it's the webbed feet
I'm from Kent and so being one of our neighbours are the French......does that count???
Nothing against them, they are just French and therefore..... well
Another born an bred Lancashire boy from Bromley Cross now exiled in God's own country. Some Scots I know take this sort of thing to a level that makes the Yorkshire/Lancashire thing look like tiddly winks.
According to some Glaswegians, all Edinburgh ladies wear fur coats with no knickers etc. etc.......
And do you know anyone from dirty Gala?
Oi you, I'm from Dirty Gala! so watch it.
(actually I'm originally from Peebles, but have been in Gala for years. I even got called a Pailmerk the other week by a Jap, which was nice, made me feel like I belonged!)
Re England, I lived in Leeds for 10 years and always felt it was more a north vs south dislike/rivalry they had rather than Yorks/Lancs. Apart from hating Scumchester United obviously.
we get it in Wales the strange scarlets fans and their "west is best" bollox!:wink:
I live in Derbyshire, cover half the county, but my office base is in Nottingham.
I have a large poster of "British Sheep Breeds" next to my desk, some toy sheep next to my monitor, and when they require me to wear a tie, it has sheep on it.
What makes you think there is any rivalry - except I'm surrounded by gun-toting buffoons who think you need a passport to go beyond Ikea.....
Im from the Worcestershire/Gloucestershire/Herefordshire border areas and TBH dont really sense any kind of rivalry, more of an "English county" compatability.
What?! You haven't been talking to those weird people "over the hill" in Herefordshire, have you?! Ewwwwww...
I've nothing against Hobbits phiiiil.....

OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada's economy will stay in a recession for three quarters and contract 0.5 percent annually in 2009 with the jobless rate peaking at 8.1 percent, the Conference Board of Canada forecast in a report on Wednesday.
Canadian export volumes have been losing steam since late 2007 as the global economy slowed. But until recently the Canadian economy was shielded from the slowdown by high commodity prices.
"What is new -- and perhaps more devastating -- is the impact that lower commodity prices will have on real income in Canada, especially when combined with the effect of waning consumer and investor confidence," the research group said in its outlook for the Canadian economy.
Gross domestic product is seen shrinking 0.9 percent in the fourth quarter of 2008, followed by contractions of 0.5 percent and 0.1 percent in the first and second quarters of this year.
The Board sees U.S. export markets hitting bottom this year and before starting to recover in the second half, with the Canadian economy posting a robust 3.6 percent growth in 2010.
Canada sends three-quarters of its exports to the United States and weak demand there, combined with falling oil prices, dragged down exports by 7 percent in November -- the most recent month for which data is available. Canada's trade surplus fell to its lowest in 11 years as a result.

What's the Best Way to Treat Yourself Locally?
Where do you go? What do you do? For me the ultimate treat in Yakima is found at Gasperetti's, from the moment you walk in you feel like family. I've never had a bad meal at the Italian staple here in the Yakima Valley. I know that John works hard to make sure customers get what they want when they walk through his doors. My favorite treat from Gasperetti's is the coconut cake with anglaise. I could eat it for dessert every night. I show you a picture but it doesn't stick around long enough to pose.
My question for you is what is your special place for a Yakima Valley treat and what is it? Do tell….

Is Anything Happening: My Life as a Newsman
Wednesday 29 March 2017
1 HourDuration
Oxford Martin School: Lecture TheatreVenue
£12.50Ticket price
Veteran BBC reporter and presenter Robin Lustig looks back at his career as a foreign correspondent for Reuters and the Observer in the Middle East, Balkans and USA and at his time as a BBC presenter on programmes such as The World Tonight.
Lustig says he has seen many changes in the way news is reported during his 45 years in the business. He recalls coming under fire in Pakistan, reporting from Berlin on the day of German reunification, meeting Nelson Mandela and reporting on Princess Diana's death. Lustig also reflects on growing up as the son of refugees from Nazi Germany and the murder of his grandmother by a Nazi death squad. And he takes a candid look at broadcast journalism.

The Wheeling Jesuit University community will take part in a statewide candlelight prayer 6 p.m., Jan. 21 near the shore of Wheeling Creek on the WJU campus to stand in solidarity with neighbors affected by the recent chemical spill in Charleston.
The service is being organized by the CARE campaign (Citizens for Real Enforcement) statewide. CARE is inviting all West Virginians to take part in a prayer service near their local waterways and pray for clean water. In addition, the service is a way for communities to stand together during this time of crisis to show how much clean water means to the state.
"The event also will focus on the need for our state, nation and world to protect our water and critically look at practices that are currently harming our environment and citizens," said Beth Collins, director of the Appalachian Institute at Wheeling Jesuit.
WJU Campus Ministry and the Appalachian Institute are hosting the event locally. Students and the WJU community will gather near the creek behind Bishop Schmitt Field. The service should last about 20 minutes.
WJU Campus Ministry is also donating all money collected at their 11 a.m., 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. chapel services on Jan. 26 to residents who were out of work during the crisis and need to replace any plumbing fixtures.

I found my original invoice from them on my e-mail showing as of Feb 2005, I had 1 CD left to buy and owed a balnce of $16.92 which I paid. I also satisfied the 1 Cd requirement.... Now this company claims that I didn't satisfy the agreement and owe $167.99. what kinda crap is that ! In illinois there is a statue of limitations of 5 years on obligations without a contract anyway. Also this didn't appear on my credit report until 2008 and is still on there ! I have sent letters of dispute and they have provided me with no documentation to back up their claims !
I have filed a report with the FTC re: this. I also found that BMg was disolved in 2009 and is now Direct Brands, INC. there phone # is 717-697-0311.. talk to the operator. She will connect you to the VM for this area ! Very nice ! She said that CSR's will call back within 3-4 business days...

Division 1
HORSPATH enjoyed a successful return to the Cherwell League when they saw off Great & Little Tew by five wickets.
Champions in 2010, Horspath won only once last season on their way to finishing bottom of Home Counties Premier League Division 2 West.
But they showed enough on Saturday to suggest they will be in title contention this term as they dismissed Tew for only 140.
Adam Krol (3-28) and Patrick Foster (3-41), who bowled 25 overs between them, did most of the damage.
Matt Taylor then took 4-25 from 12 overs for Tew, but Jimmy Phillips hit 71 and Shahbaz Ali 35 as Horspath eased to 141-5 in 43.3 overs.
Great & Little Tew 7pts, Horspath 25
Oxford & Bletchingdon Nondescripts restricted Leighton Buzzard Town to 158-8, but then undid their good work by slumping to 120 all out.
Mark Strong took 4-49 and Ross Brown 3-26 for Nondies, while burly all-rounder Dan Scott struck 59 invaluable runs for the home side.
Strong (31) then top-scored for the visitors, but Leighton's long-serving left-arm spinner Lee Selfe bagged 4-29 and Alan Priestley 3-28 to claim help Town claim maximum points.
Leighton Buzzard Town 25, Oxford & Bletchingdon Nondescripts 4
Great Brickhill pipped Banbury 2nd to the second division title last summer but were outclassed when the two sides met on Saturday.
Banbury's 199-9 was built around Anish Desai's 64 and Ed Phillips's 43.
Garth Davson (4-41) and Doug Aris (3-55) both enjoyed success with the ball for the visitors, who then crawled to 98-8 from 47 overs in reply.
Jacques Prinsloo finished with the remarkable figures of 3-18 from 13 overs – seven of them maidens – but was unable to prise out the Brickhill tail.
Banbury 2nd 18, Great Brickhill 4
The match between Buckingham Town and Bletchley Town followed a similar pattern, with the home side dominating but unable to force a win.
Buckingham declared more than three overs early on 242-8 after Jack Parish had been out one run short of his century and Rob Lightfoot had made an impressive 80.
As ever, Graham Simpson (3-28) was the pick of the Bletchley attack.
Paul Strong hit 44 and James Gear took 3-52 after tea, but the match petered out into a draw with the visitors on 164-7 from 50 overs.
Buckingham Town 18, Bletchley Town 6
