Since I am spending a large amount of my time traveling, I am putting my real estate business on hold. Perhaps one day I will decide to return to the day to day challenges of real estate. Who knows? I always enjoyed it.
Meanwhile, I have a number of real estate related domain names I will sell. Some are relative to Georgia and some to Florida.
This one is good anywhere: WeHaveLuxuryHomes.com
- TampaBayHomesAndLand.com
- AffordableHomesInTampaBay.com
- AlafiaProperty.com

You may ask yourself what on earth can you do with these different domain names. Here is just one way to use them.
Create a website using one domain name (FixerUppersTampaBay.com for example) that consists of only one page. On that one page place a contact form. State clearly that you will be happy to send them a free report of fixeruppers for sale in their area. Be very clear that you can't send them their list unless they completely fill out the form. Make certain you have a place for their name, address, phone number and email address on that form.
Now place a 2 line add on one of your local shopper magazines (preferably one where you can select what neighborhood it is delivered to). First line: "Get your free FixerUpper property list". Second line: "www.FixeruppersTampaBay.com".
As you know, the key to success is always contacting them immediately so as soon as you get your email with their contact information or that phone call, call them right back.
Contact me if you wish to purchase any of these domain names.

Scott Walker Dropping Out Of Presidential Race
The 2016 Presidential election has claimed it's second victim: Scott Walker. This news comes as somewhat of a surprise as only a few months ago, Walker was considered by many to be a serious contender for the Republican Nomination. Walker, who won three elections in four years in left leaning Wisconsin including surviving a recall election over his dismantling of the unions, has a good resume for conservatives.
Scott Walker actually began the race leading in the Iowa polls but recently his campaign was hit with a new national poll that had Walker at 0%.
Rick Perry Suspends 2016 Presidential Campaign
After months of poor performances in polls and lack of funding, Governor Rick Perry has suspended his campaign ending his 2016 bid for the presidency. The fact that the Perry campaign has been in a dire situation became clear earlier this week when it was revealed that the campaign could no longer afford to pay staffers in Iowa and New Hampshire.
After announcing the end of his campaign at the Eagle Forum in St. Louis Perry continued on to say "We have a tremendous field of candidates… I step aside knowing the party is in good hands" Perry urged the candidates to listen to the grass roods and stand by conservative values.
Trump's Take on the 14th Amendment is Simply Ludicrous
We all know that Donald Trump is going to say some crazy things. After all, that's the reason why his campaign for the presidency is fun and entertaining. However, with Trump leading in the polls for the Republican nomination, the crazy becomes a bit scary. Recently, Trump talked with the media about his ludicrous take on the 14th Amendment and his position on birthright citizenship did not disappoint.
Donald Trump's take on the 14th Amendment is fundamentally based on what his campaign was founded on: bluster, hate, and racism. Trump kicked off his campaign with a speech which included the line: "They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists." Referring to illegal immigration specifically from Mexico. That sounds like someone who doesn't have any prejudice right? right?
Senate Passes Keystone XL
UPDATE 2/24/2015: President Obama has officially vetoed the Keystone XL Bill. This is only the third veto in the President Obama's six plus years in the Oval Office. In his statement on the veto the President said, "Because this act of Congress conflicts with established executive branch procedures and cuts short thorough consideration of issues that could bear on our national interest — including our security, safety, and environment — it has earned my veto."
The Senate is expected to hold an override vote in within the next couple of weeks. However, it is unlikely that both the House and the Senate will be able to muster the 2/3 majority necessary for a veto override.
Eric Cantor to Resign as Majority Leader
UPDATE: In the wake of yesterdays primary election defeat Eric Cantor will announce that he will be resigning as the House Majority Leader. The House Republican caucus will select a new Majority Leader on June 19th. Senior house Republicans are already jockeying for position in the hopes of replacing Cantor in the House's No. 2 post. Some names that have already been floated as possible replacements for Cantor are: current Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Pete Sessions (R-TX). Paul Ryan (R-WI) 2012 VP nominee and the house budget committee chairman has been brought up but has declined to run saying, "I've passed up elected leadership, I'm a policy guy. I've already said no."
Ongoing Conflict In Ukraine – Russian Troops Cross Border
Vladimir Putin's Russia is again in the world spotlight less than one week after the Closing Ceremony of the Winter Olympics in Sochi. Russian troops have crossed the border into the Crimea region of Ukraine, a former satellite state of the Soviet Union. This conflict in Ukraine has stemmed from the violent protests that have embroiled the nation over the last three months.
WATCH: BBC Report on the Ukrainian protests
Ukraine is a nation that is sharply divided between the pro-Russian East and the pro-European West. The protests began when Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych (whom many in the West consider to be a Russian puppet) rejected a proposal for Ukraine to have a closer relationship with, and in time possibly join the EU. Over the past month, the protests have resulted in hundreds of casualties, the burning Independence Square in Kiev, and the ousting of Yanukovych.
Bill Nye The Science Guy Debates Creationist Ken Ham
Science and religion clash yet again, this time deep in the Bible Belt in Petersburg, Kentucky. Tonight's debate pits Bill Nye The Science Guy against Ken Ham, arguably the most well known spokesman for Creationism. Ham founded the Creationist Museum that will host the debate.
The key question to be debated tonight:
The format of the debate will be as follows: Each side will have a 5 minute opening statement, followed by a 30 minute presentation to make their case. After the presentations, there will be two rounds of 5 minute rebuttals followed by approximately 45 minutes of Q&A from the audience.
Government Shutdown Real Time Cost Counter
At first glance, it may seem counter intuitive that a government shutdown actually COSTS the taxpayers money. However each day this shutdown continues, it costs taxpayers an estimated $160 Million dollars in lost revenue and diminished economic output.
Cutting the BS – An Analysis of GOP Talking Points on the Shutdown
Now that the Federal Government has shut down, the political posturing has begun. It looks like we are in for a shutdown lasting at least three or four days and possibly much longer. By day two, we have seen the political strategies of each party begin to unfold. For the moment the Democrats seem to be standing strong, staying on message, and firmly holding The Political Highground. However, we know all to well that Democrats are capable of losing their discipline and buckling at any moment. The Republicans on the other hand, are trying to change the optics and position themselves as the reasonable party begging for negotiation.
Obama to Boehner: Do Your Job, Avoid a Government Shutdown
President Obama addressed the press this afternoon on the issue of the looming government shutdown saying: "You don't get to extract a ransom for doing your job, for doing something you are supposed to be doing anyway."
President Obama To Speaker Boehner:
The Senate has stripped the delay of Obamacare provisions and passed a clean Continuing Resolution to fund the government and sent it over to the House. Speaker Boehner has the votes to pass a clean CR, but the majority of the votes would have to come from the Democrats. Speaker Bohener doesn't want to put the clean CR to a vote because it would break the Hastert rule (a strategy in which as Speaker, you don't allow a bill on the floor if it will pass but without a majority of your caucus voting for it.) and he fears that would weaken his speakership. We will see if the Speaker can gain control of the right wing of his party and avert a government shutdown at midnight tonight. However, at the moment that does not look very likely.

Hillary Frey is leaving Politico. A Click Editor since March who held the title of "Media and Style Editor," she quit two weeks ago. The goodbye fete for her was hosted last night. Among the reasons she's leaving: the commute was difficult. Frey's husband lives in Brooklyn and she'd commute to Washington three days here, four days there "and I think it got the best of her," a source told FishbowlDC.
We hear Politico is in search of Frey's replacement.

USD/JPY (a 4-hour chart)
General Overview
The inflation in July showed a record since 2008. The Consumer prices (excluding food) rose by 0.7 %. The forecast was - 0.6 %.
The prices grow the second consecutive month. The growth was due mainly rise in price of an imported energy. Industrial production rose by 3.2 % after a contraction of 3.1 % in the previous month while economists had expected growth of 3.8 %. Unemployment rate unexpectedly fell in July to 3.8 % from 3.9 %. Experts predicted retention at the same level.
Tenkan-Sen and Kijun-Sen are crossed in a descending "dead cross". Kijun-sen is moving in a horizontal direction parallel to the cloud, and the Tenkan-Sen continues to grow. The price is above the cloud. The Cloud is neutral.
Bollinger Bands follow the price up. The indicator shows a high volatility.
MACD is in a positive area and is growing.
Trading recommendations
The price continues to consolidate near the resistance level 98.40 being above 98.00. As long as the trade goes up sloping support line, the basic priority remains with the rising trend. But in order to move up the price necessary to break the next resistance level 98.40 that will open the way to the downward trend line 98.70.

Poets, Poverty And Mental Illness - Poem by James McLain
Many of U.S. were subsequently hospitalized and treated with shock therapy.
Erasing then redrawing all the borders of my mind
by losing all the picture's of my past.
I won't describe my past hospitalizations as a form of pain
this was more for them this form of therapy.
Violated, wet and warm it was a time of tragic shame
and electric light's induced this form of man our infamous history.
Hopelessness despair, and blind illusion- so black only as the inferno of Dante's mind can be- symbolic of the church and state and death,
and cold the fire in me.
I was like you shocked- and then the painful agony of my rebirth
and what to you it means.

2014-03-14 Upcoming Forum Software Replacement
Posted 15 March 2014 - 02:38 AM
Fortunately, our newest site administrator, wthww, has helped tremendously both with providing some newer and more secure hosting facilities as well as with updating our installation of phpBB. He even manually patched it to work with the most recent version of PHP running on his system.
With that out of the way, I'm pleased to announce that the 68kMLA is making its second planned forum software move, and its first where we should be able to almost completely preserve our existing user and forum data.
It has been a long process, but we've chosen InvisionPower Board as our next forum and web site software. I know you're disappointed it's not SharePoint. It is expensive, but to quote L'Oreal, you're worth it too.
We do not have an exact date nailed down at this moment, but in an ideal universe, we hope to have the process started by May. We have trialed the migration process already and if we've dotted all of our Is and crossed all of our Ts, then we should be up and running in less time than it took during our trial, but it still make take quite a while (several days), because we've got several years of history on this phpBB installation, and we're bringing it all with us to the new software.
In addition to bringing the forum over, we're buying a few of Invision's other modules and (although the actual deployment of this stuff may not happen immediately) are looking at enabling image galleries as well as personal blogs, a content management system (which may ultimately supplant the wiki, but we haven't been able to test it yet) as well as a new front page, either for static content of some sort, or for a site-wide blog or news area.
At the same time we replace the forum software, we're also going to be replacing 68kMLA.org e-mail. Because of this, you can not rely on sending an e-mail to the admin account in order to get a status update. We have two alternate communication methods lined up, however!
The first is our IRC channel, still happily running in its new home on Oshaberi. You can connect to irc.oshaberi.ne.jp and then join #68kMLA or you can use WebIRC on dillamond and then join #68kMLA.
The second is that I have stealthily registered a 68kMLA Twitter account! You do not need to have a Twitter account of your own in order to view it, and while the migration is taking place, wthww and I will be posting to it on a regular basis.
At this point, the only pieces that have yet to fall into place are the budget (I'm waiting for pay day, just in case something comes up) and the timing – wthww and I need to coordinate our schedules. Barring any showstopping concerns, the whole process should take less than a week and be completed by May.

Would it be possible, with IPB, to develop a Classic Mac Skin using System 7 Graphical Assets? They claim its very customizable...the limit is probably the amount of free time you (the administration) have to spend on such an endeavor.
The pricing on this software is high, cloud-hosted or roll it your own. It shows dedication to spend sizable money on rather expensive software to run this niche community.
Looking forward to the update, and lets all hope it goes smoothly.
Posted 15 March 2014 - 05:19 AM
Will all the user accounts be preserved?
Will it still be compatible with, say, Classilla on OS 9 or Mac OS X 10.3.x and lower? Compatibility with these antiquated operating systems is nice to have, if only for the novelty factor.
Will it be anything like Applefritter? I don't care much for their setup (they're using Drupal, I believe).
Will it have a decent number of themes? For that matter, will it have *any* themes?
Are you going to archive all the current content and put it in its own area, like you did with the current old site archive, or are you just going to integrate all the current stuff so that it'll be exactly as is, but with a new interface?
This is a big change, and I hope it works out!
Good luck!!

1. How long is the update excepted to take? Day, week, month, year? Ballpark is fine.
2. Will posts be preserved as a Archive (like the early days at the top of the page) or be migrated over to the new software?
3. I noticed they show an iPhone, is there going to be an app we can use, or just a mobile optimized website?
I think thats about it for my questions so far. I hope all the data can be migrated. It would be a pain to start again, but it seems it will be worth it either way.

We will be migrating all of our existing board's data into invision. We're doing our best to make sure we don't lose anything.
Posted 16 March 2014 - 12:42 AM
1. How long is the update excepted to take? Day, week, month, year? Ballpark is fine.
A few months ago, we did the conversion on a Power Macintosh G5 with 4 gigs of ram. It took just about a week. The host we're on has a good clip more CPU speed, but everything is architected slightly differently. I wouldn't expect it to take any more than two weeks. We'll be in touch on the linked IRC channel and one or more of us will be posting updates to twitter.
3. I noticed they show an iPhone, is there going to be an app we can use, or just a mobile optimized website?
I actually don't know. My guess is either a) mobile-optimized CSS that scales really well to different devices, widths, etc a for-pay add on for mobile access.
Will content be migrated?
As I said in the OP, all of the existing forum content will be moved. This is why the migration is going to take up to a week or so and why This was one of the things that led us to IPB instead of, say, SharePoint or Discourse, where there aren't any conversion/migration tools.
Firstly: No, we don't really have any plans to develop or deploy any custom themes, or multitudinous themes. We're literally plucking a software package off the shelf and asking it to be our web site.
With the exception of wthww, none of the administration or moderation staff are programmers, much less web designers. I'm a server/app administrator, at best, and what we're looking at here is a software change, not something that's going to change the way we run the site.
That having been said, anything is possible and I imagine that part of the extensible nature of IPB is custom themes.
Will it be anything like Applefritter?
I suppose that depends on what you mean. AppleFritter has always had a focus on being a "web site with a forum" and the 68kMLA has historically been "a forum" (with, secondarily, a wiki or a web site, but that was never really the landing page.)
The short answer is: no, certainly not yet.
The long answer is: I would like the 68kMLA to be slightly more than "a forum" -- but this requires a fair amount of consideration in terms of what could be done and how sustainable it is long term. I think this is a discussion we'll be having before moving forward.
Will it still be compatible with, say, Classilla on OS 9 or Mac OS X 10.3.x and lower? Compatibility with these antiquated operating systems is nice to have, if only for the novelty factor.
I don't know, it's not on my radar, and doing this would require inordinate amounts of effort. We would need to either a) use insanely outdated forum software from the period which as you can all guess is a horrific idea or write new forum software using modern server technologies, programming, and security practices, but with an interface that's focused on working with retro computers.
In addition, we've done the polls, a fairly large majority of the site is using systems with displays bigger than 800x600 at this point.
The novelty would be there, but the practicality just isn't. I actually have discussed alternate options such as telnet/ssh BBSs and have privately considered options like hotline, NNTP and VMS NOTES, but one of the reasons this forum is so popular is because it's accessible to non-technical users. Switching to a news server or something into which you must telnet or SSH is not going to happen, even though it would be ideal for that "novelty" factor.

Which is why we have IRC? because IRC still works on the old stuff. Its just not stored or permanent like a forum, but at least discussion can take place there.

A few reasons why:
- Its made by the same folks who did StackOverflow (Jeff Atwood et al), which means its got a strong development team actively improving it
- Very future-proof: the team is well-funded, its open source, and it has *huge* following on Github (top 5 project)
- The features are really awesome (@metions, page-less, reply as new topic, mod tools, great search, easy image hosting, etc)
They're aiming to be the 'wordpress of forums'. Here's the kickoff article that summarizes their approach, or just read the blog to see their progress.
Importers are starting to come out for phpBB. I understand the sheer volume of content here means any import is going to take a long time and probably some trial & error, but this is the most exciting forum software to come out in a decade and I think has the right features to elevate the discussion.
The default theme is not the prettiest but it's pretty extensible so I imagine that's a few hacks away. That extensibility goes for other things to, so if you wanted to do a text-only output or other such retro projects, its possible to support it. E.g. someone just added RSS in December, so you can fire up Acuity and get your 68kmla on right out of the box.
Hosting-wise I know they're working on some turnkey solution at Digital Ocean but haven't looked at status of that.
Anyway, just a thought!

That one is just too plain looking, plus it reminds me of twitter and I hate twitter as it is...

The main reason I didn't go for discourse is that it's not considered "ready" by its creators, at least it wasn't when I was matrixing different pieces of software. Importers also weren't yet available. In addition, it requires a whole bunch of horsepower to run. Right now, we're sharing wthww's web hosting box and because of Ruby on Rails and because of the way Discourse is set up, we'd basically need to be using a dedicated physical box on somebody's' reasonably fast home, office, or co-located network connection.
I'll take a look at it again because Discourse is very exciting. The unfortunate side effect of it being so exciting is that it strays pretty far from "regular" forum software and I suspect that may cause some issues.
Posted 06 May 2014 - 07:40 PM
Well I hate to say this but I hate the new forum software. If a forum's not phpBB then I keep off of it; this new thing is bloated, slow, ugly and difficult to use. It looks like a cheap facebook wannabe.
In any case, part of what I liked about the 68kMLA was the "vintage" feel of the forums. I liked the feeling that you were going down into someone's old Mac shed when you came to visit the forums. That is lost now, and between that and the awkward interface I don't like the 68kMLA anymore.
I was very upset when I came back here after taking a short break and find this mess. I'm out of here!!!
Always on the lookout for cheap/free Macs and Mac goodies-PM me if you've got an offer.
As my username suggests, I only have one mac (Performa 475), but wouldn't mind 50 or so.
Posted 06 May 2014 - 08:12 PM
Almost two months later, this is no longer really timely.
Using the Firefox 3 beta and Internet Explorer 8 are poor ideas everywhere, so I guess I can see how it seems bloated, if that's what you've saddled yourself with.

Research Projects
Project at a Glance
Project Status: complete
Title: Assessment of out of state heavy duty truck activity trends in California.
Principal Investigator / Author(s): Nicholas Lutsey
Contractor: UC Davis
Contract Number: 04-328
Research Program Area: Emissions Monitoring & Control
Topic Areas: Mobile Sources & Fuels
The California Air Resources Boards emissions inventory estimates indicate that ambient air quality in several regions of California is substantially affected by the exhaust emissions of diesel trucks. There are insufficient data to accurately model the energy and emissions impacts of interstate-traveling trucks, many of which may be registered and/or fuel out-of-state. Emissions inventory estimates are based on adjustments to data on California-registered trucks. These estimates may not reflect the effect of non-California-registered trucks attributes and operations. Further, the effects of out-of-state fueling by California-registered and non-California-registered interstate-traveling trucks are also not currently captured. In Summer 2006, an interview survey of 433 truck drivers was conducted to characterize the vehicle attributes and operations of interstate trucks that travel in California. We estimate that non-California-registered trucks account for more than one-quarter of the Class 8 heavy-duty truck mileage on California roads. Also more than one-quarter of all Class 8 heavy-duty truck mileage in California is fueled by out-of-state diesel. The effects of this are disproportionately concentrated in four air basins the Mojave Desert, South Coast, the Sacramento Valley, and the San Joaquin Valley with considerable ambient air quality issues.

I have a 4 row x 1 column table that contains a check box (5px dimensions) in each cell. I have placed a class on each table cell so that the cell has a height of 15 px to give the checkbox some space.
It looks alright on a computer browser but when I look at it on a smartphone running Android, the table collapses and the checkbox are directly on top of each other.
Just wondering if this was natural or if there is a fix for it.

Joseph and Leila Spence
April 6, 2012
Joseph Brown (Joe) Spence was born July 4, 1925, in Meeker, to Joseph Wert Spence and Jennie Mary Brown Spence. He died Saturday, March 3, 2012.
Joe spent his childhood in Meeker on the family ranch. His father was a rancher and an entrepreneur and his mother was a schoolteacher.
Leila May (Pinkie) Spence was born May 13, 1924, in Siebert, to Odry C. Martin and Viola May Harrison Martin. She died Friday, March 23, 2012.
Her father was a farmer and her mother was a homemaker.
Joe and Pinkie met in high school in Meeker. Joe was a senior in high school when World War II broke out. He enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1943.
On Feb. 12, 1944, Joe and Pinkie were married while Joe was on leave. They spent a short time together in Astoria, Ore., until Joe shipped out to the South Pacific, where he was a gunner on a Naval mine destroyer. Joe was honorably discharged in 1945. The couple reunited in Meeker, and made their home on the family ranch where they lived for many years and reared their family.
To his family and close friends, Joe was JoePa, and JoePa was a giant.
He was not a giant because of his physical stature, although he was a tall, agile man and as strong as they come. Rather, it was his big heart and tremendous spirit that made him a giant. It was his genuine love for his family.
He was a refreshingly positive person. He lived with a profound benevolence, strong work ethic, integrity and sense of humor. He was down-to-earth, intelligent and practical, with a keen understanding of both the natural and mechanical worlds.
He understood how to get things done and took great pride in his work. He was also a great storyteller and had lots of great stories. They were true stories, too.
His life was so rich and colorful and filled with good characters that he didn't have to make anything up. The magic was in the way he told them and his smile. He revered life. He had a big family and each member was loved and treated fairly by JoePa. Regarding one of his grandchildren, he once said, "That is one of my finest creations." The way that he said such things came across as a compliment to his grandchildren and not himself.
Pinkie was a beautiful, gentle spirit who wished the best not only for her family but everyone she knew.
The only time she was fierce was when she felt the need to protect one of her children or "right" a "wrong."
She grew up in hard times and endured hardships, but more importantly she managed these difficult times with dignity and grace. When she made personal sacrifices, she would never mention them to anyone. She was a genuinely positive person and always believed everything would turn out "right" and so it did.
She was a famous family cook and baker. She cooked for 50 people as easily as she did for seven and she often did cook for 50 or more. Many a time on the ranch, a neighbor would show up to talk to Joe about something.
We wondered why it was always at breakfast or dinnertime. Could have been the pinch of sugar that she was generous with in most meals. She took care of her family and looked after her neighbors.
She is one of the last of an innocent generation. She trusted a person for their word and lived by hers. She felt at home at children's school events, church and on the ranch. She felt at peace in rural areas with all the quietness of nature. She was a very friendly person with a quiet, powerful strength that comes to one who is truly happy with their life.
Joe and Pinkie were a loving and devoted couple for 68 years.
Their union was beautiful from beginning to end and it exemplified the sanctity of marriage and becoming one. They shared the power to stay positive and maintained their keen senses of humor regardless. They had a happy life together. They will be greatly missed by their family and friends and anyone who has ever enjoyed spending time with them in their positive light. Their enduring gift is the way they lived their lives and taught their family, and continue to teach us how to be better human beings.
They are survived by their five children, Vickie (Jim) Kirkpatrick, of Lakewood, Joseph M. (Clarice) Spence, of Winston Salem, N.C., Billie (Bob) Witham, Grand Junction, Shelley (Keith) Pankey, of Craig, and Gaye Ann (Terry) Crabtree, Hanson, Ky; 11 grandchildren and 16 great grandchildren; and four nephews, two nieces and numerous great nephews, nieces and friends.
A celebration of life for Joe and Pinkie will be in June in Meeker.

All The Single Ladies: Scott Brown Informs Supporters His Daughters Are "Available"

Energy efficiency auction seeks projects to fund
Hawaii Energy, the ratepayer-funded energy conservation and efficiency program for Hawaii, Honolulu and Maui counties, is launching the Hawaii Energy Efficiency Auction to find out just how innovative and cost-effective the market can be when it comes to helping residents and businesses save energy.
The auction is an open call for contractors, developers, energy efficiency solution providers, energy service companies, energy vendors and property managers to submit qualified energy-efficiency projects to compete for up to $2.1 million in incentive funds to offset project costs.
Proposed projects must reduce energy consumption and deliver one or more of the following:
• Improved cost-effectiveness compared to existing Hawaii Energy offerings.
• Increased energy efficiency in high energy consumption or hard-to-reach geographic areas.
• Or mass installations of specific energy efficiency technologies or offerings.
The Hawaii Energy Efficiency Auction is one of many upcoming energy-efficiency initiatives being developed under the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission's guidance and leadership to help electric ratepayers maximize their energy savings. The goal of the auction is to identify and enable turnkey energy-efficiency projects that provide the best value, based on first-year and lifetime energy savings.
The request for project applications and an application form are available online at auction.hawaiienergy.com. Applications must be received online, via email or in hard copy by 4 p.m. Sept. 29.
Companies licensed and insured to conduct business in Hawaii can submit an application. There are no application fees.
"Since the inception of Hawaii Energy five years ago, we've made tremendous strides in saving ratepayers energy and money on their electric bills. However, there is still great untapped potential to expand our reach to help even more residents and businesses," said Ray Starling, Hawaii Energy program director. "With our new efficiency auction, we're calling upon industry professionals to demonstrate their ingenuity and market savvy to bring additional energy-saving solutions to electric customers."
Proposed projects must serve electric utility ratepayers in Hawaii, Honolulu or Maui counties who pay the Public Benefit Fee charge on their electric bills. Projects already in contract do not qualify for the auction.
More than $977,000 is set aside for selected residential projects requiring a minimum incentive commitment of $10,000. Additionally, more than $1.14 million is earmarked for commercial projects with a minimum incentive requirement of $50,000 per selected project. There are two project categories: Targeted Projects, which focuses on specific residential or commercial target markets or specific technologies, and Innovative Projects, which are new energy-efficiency technologies not currently offered by Hawaii Energy.
Residential target markets include renters and hard-to-reach geographic areas. Specific technologies may include solar thermal water heaters for multifamily homes, LED lighting, smart thermostats, occupancy sensors and whole home monitors.
Commercial target markets consist of professionally managed housing, schools, health care, small businesses and restaurants, as well as businesses in hard-to-reach geographic areas. Specific technologies may include LED lighting, controls, cold storage, kitchen equipment, demand response as an energy-efficiency initiative, business submetering and recommissioning or retro-commissioning.
Interested participants must submit an application along with an estimated energy savings worksheet and project proposal online at auction.hawaiienergy.com, via email to John Rei at email@example.com, or by hard copy to Hawaii Energy, 1132 Bishop St., Suite 1800, Honolulu, HI 96813.
Applicants will be notified if their project is selected by Oct. 17. Preference will be given to projects that can be completed by May 30, 2015. Longer duration projects could be accepted based on value to the program.
For more information, call Rei at 839-8823.

Complaint Review: Choice Home Warranty (CHM)
- Choice Home Warranty (CHM)

- Web: www.choicehomewarranty.com
- Category: Warranty Companies
Choice Home Warranty (CHM) Troy M. / Stanley G. Choice Home Warranty WILL NOT PAY - They Do Not Pay Subcontractors - DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH CHOICE HOME WARRANTY - THEY LIE LIE LIE Edison, New Jersey
After being contacted by choice home warranty to provide services to their customers My small Electrical Contracting company did just that.. We serviced their customers.
The way it worked for us, is they sent us several work orders the first week then even more the next couple weeks. EVERY customer was serviced very timley and all was well for their client.
I had my first red flagged raised and ignored (by me) when a work order came through one afternoon and I was in my office... decided to run strait to customers home and did... Upon arriving I found problem and called in for approval as required. When I could not get through to approval department at 3PM my time I did not think anything of it..
I knew the item was covered and since all work through these outfits are DISCOUNTED considerably (because they tell you how much they will pay) I literly could not afford to leave the customers home to revisit another day so I performed the work figuring "hey they keep sending us out they must trust us at this point" WRONG
After more and more time went on approx. 2 Monthes without payment I began to get concerned. We had around $2k out in material plus our labor and had not received a dime... Everytime we called we got a STANLEY GOODSPEED who would be SO RUDE (I mean VERY VERY RUDE) and would assure us the check was being processed then it was sent and should arrive then oh we will need to resend the check then it was "you need to resend all invoices"
Then after threatening legal action we did receiv the 1 and only check to date for a wopping $150.00 yeah thats right $150 when we had spent clode to $2k in materials alone.
Then it started getting nasty as they refused to pay for the invoices where we could not through for approval (during businness hours)
Then fast forward several monthes and we were sending out our delinquent files for legal action and I logged on internet to get their contact infor (for filing) and I saw this site and all the complaints.
PROOF at last that these no good, evil people in fact practice these tactics to small companies all accross the country. SAD Criminal Pathetic all at the same time.
So I noticed a response from a Troy Mc dermott or something to that effect claiming Stanley was gone and HE WAS there to save the day. Offering to make things right with everyone who was robbed during the previous regiem.
I called spoke with him and it sounded great,.. yeah "tanley was a crook" he proclaimed and they brought me in to clean up his messes and there is a lot of em" Resend all your invoices to me directly and I will get you paid!
WOW!! Great We will get paid after all this..... NO Not so fast.
Time goes on and nothing, then we call "oh I did not get anything" funny since fax machines conform receipt.. Okay I will resend I told him and we did. Then Nothing...
I call one last time to attempt to not drag them to California Court and he then turned into Stanley and got very VERY VERY RUDE, Nasty infact. I was told he would not pay for the services rendered without approval (even know the customers were taken care of and all work performed was virtually the same, nothing different thanwhat was gettinng approved if they actually answered) So it is not like we were performing work that would not be approved but simply I fell into their deceptive trap!
I want EVERYone to know that Choice Home Warranty is a shotty excuse for a Home Warranty Provider> I will spend more money than they owe to ensure something is done.. I have begun to place liens on the unsuspecting and unfortunate home owners and I am filing a law suite through the superior courts of California as they engage in work here.
It really was hard fighting through the none payment. Labor loss is one thing but when we are spendinng $350-$450 in material per customers plus our labor and overhead it is a bit much.

Beautiful color
I love this blush. Goes on smoothly and the color is build-able. I swirl the highlighter in the blush for an extra glow but you can just use the highlighter separately.
Beautiful blush
Beautiful. Love the product
Adorable and gorgeous!
I just love this blush. It's a beautiful, natural, springy color. Just gorgeous. The coverage is buildable and I love that you can customize whether or not you want it to shimmer. Plus the packaging design is to die for!
Love it!
This is now my go to blush! I won't use anything else! Love!
Sheer and beautiful!
I thought this was going to be too bright on my fair skin, but, it is amazingly sheer and flattering. It gives a nice rosy-gold glow.
Love love love ,
I actually ordered 2 sets of these. Just incase this gets discontinued. This is such a beautiful touch of pink glow! Feels and looks amazing! I m using it everyday! Thanks Laura!
Wonderful Blush
I love this blush. It goes on so smoothly, with buildable coverage, and lasts. The gold center can be used alone to add highlights anywhere -- looks great over eyebrow bone for nights out, and when used together with blush it lends a lovely glow to the face. Definitely one of my favorites. As ever, Laura's baked products are wonderful.
Great Blush!
I went in to Ulta looking for the Nars Orgasm blush and was shown this! I lovvveeee it! Exact same color but with better pigment. Its now my go to.
Very nice, but...
I really like the product an the little heart in the center is cute. However, the user needs a very small brush to get the highlighter out without taking the blush with it. I love Laura Geller products!

Spoilers ahead!
A few not-so-shocking giveaways about this week's new movie releases, including Justice League and Frank Serpico
Matthew Lickona 6 p.m., Nov. 17
The sheriff's department in Yuma, Arizona, must return a stash of marijuana seized from an Encinitas woman at a Border Patrol checkpoint two years ago, an Arizona appeals court has ruled.
Valerie Okun was stopped at the checkpoint just northeast of the California and Mexican borders when officers found and confiscated her marijuana and smoking paraphernalia, despite Okun's effort to identify herself as a legal medical marijuana patient in the state of California by presenting identification to prove her claims.
Okun later beat drug charges filed against her by the state of Arizona by proving the legitimacy of her documents as a qualified patient in the California Medical Marijuana Program, which affords her protection under the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act as well.
But Arizona balked when a county judge ordered Okun's medicine returned, citing the federal Controlled Substance Act, and claiming that state law required the forfeiture of any seized drugs.
Three appellate judges affirmed the ruling in favor of Okun late last week.
"Because Arizona law allows Okun to possess the marijuana, it is not subject to forfeiture under state law," wrote Judge Diane Johnsen on behalf of the panel, adding that the sheriff had immunity from the federal law, as the office "has no 'personal stake' in whether the federal Controlled Substances Act might invalidate Okun's right under the [Arizona Medical Marijuana Act] to possess an allowable amount of marijuana."
The sheriff "has no personal stake..." What kind of legal mumbo-jumbo is that? If Arizona law allows one to possess small amount of weed, and the person has a California card, what more would be needed? And when and why would a sheriff ever have a "personal stake" in a case like this? I'm glad it turned out like it did, but I find the ruling to be as clear as mud.
The Yuma County Sheriff is a STATE law enforcement offficer/agency. Under the "Full Faith and Credit" clause article 4 of the US Constitution AZ MUST!! honor the laws of CA, there is no discretion at all, none.
Easy call on an easy case.
As I recall, you lived in Yuma at one time. It must have been quite a while ago and you must not spend much time in AZ. or read any of their periodicals with much frequently. If you did, then you would know that starting with their governor and going right on down the totem pole, Az. pols and LE seem to believe that they can do as they damn well please, Constitution and Fed or state laws be damned. For example, despite the fact that their state constitution is very specific on the subject, their loony tunes governor has said that the rules for term limits don't apply to her and she can run for office again if she wants to. Or for a good laugh, look up the city government of Quartzite and read about what's going on there. It's hilarious.
I actually did live in Yuma, and I liked the place. it was small, had a home towny feel to it, and the people, especially military, were very welcoming. I never had any run in with local LE though, and I think it has gotten worse since I was there a decade a ago.
This actually reminds me of a well know CA case, where a Michigan resident was here driving their MI car, w/o a front plate which is perfectly legal in MI, and a cop pulled them over and wrote them a plate ticket and from there somehow the cop searched the car and found a boatload of pot. Long story short the case got tossed b/c the front plate was not a violation of MI laws and as such the CA cop had no reason to pull the car over......
Javajoe - my interpretation is that the court was assuring the sheriff's department that it would be immune from prosecution by the feds if they gave back what the feds took away.
What more is needed than a California MMJ card and an Arizona law saying they honor California's MMJ law? Apparently two years worth of patience to fight a court battle to prove nothing more is needed.
Dave a state court has no authority to grant anyone immunity in a federal court. And the AZ law is not applicable, for the reason stated above.
Surf - you're right in that the court's language probably has no legal effect, as well as that the Constitution doesn't need affirmation from a state law (though it had it in this case). But I strongly doubt that the feds are going to come down on a small-town sheriff because they were following the orders of a state court that conflicted with federal law, which is the argument the sheriff's department originally used for refusing to follow a lower court's ruling.
Isn't that pot pretty stale by now? Does she REALLY still want it back? Hehehe

Scott Jagow: The British government has been advising the Chinese on how to set up a private equity industry. London is seeking to pull ahead of New York in forging closer financial ties with Beijing. Here's more from Stephen Beard.
Stephen Beard: With private equity deals drying up in the U.S. and Europe, buyout firms have turned to the East. Many regard China as the next Eldorado. The U.K. is determined to get its share.
The British Treasury has revealed that it's been advising Beijing on how to tax and regulate the private equity sector. Analysts here say this is a pre-emptive strike -- the aim is to give London a head start over New York in the scramble for private equity business.
British buyout firms believe they're better placed than their American counterparts. After a series of bruising rows about issues like currency revaluation, the Chinese are manifestly weary about the U.S.
In London, this is Stephen Beard for Marketplace.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
I volunteered for about a year about once a week in the Film and Audio department at Main. There was always something to do, and they seemed very appreciative of my contribution to the library. The vast array of services and materials available at Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh exceeds anything I'd expect from a library, and outweighs anything else I've experienced other places. Free e-magazine subscriptions, e-books, MP3s, playaways (little standalone audiobooks), art/cultural events (a preview of a musical among the books in the library, neat), craft/diy programs, and video games (both to take home or to play at programs) are all the things I've gotten from the library that I might not have expected.
More Feedback
Would you volunteer for this group again?
For the time you spent, how much of an impact did you feel your work or activity had?
Did the organization use your time wisely?
Quite well
Would you recommend this group to a friend?

Re: Facebook and I
Actually Jukka, you for me are a prime example of "ours". You've been generous and selfless in writing plugins that are in many cases truly useful. I don't think the devs can be expected to take on all aspects, or can be expected to be experts in all areas. For some it's just natural to be enthusiastic and want to promote it but not to be expected.
Getting back to the point: is there a reason why the txp FB page can't be made publicly viewable? I realise that only FB-members can take part in discussions. The other thing to consider is not to spread the available capacity of the members too thinly – or else in the end everything gets watered down.

Heh, thanks. Sure, our plugins are our personal commitment towards Textpattern, hopefully making the CMS more useful. As far as generousness goes, I don't consider myself generous. I'm at the low-bar, and I should do better. It's like me throwing a shit at the crowd.
I don't think the devs can be expected to take on all aspects, or can be expected to be experts in all areas. For some it's just natural to be enthusiastic and want to promote it but not to be expected.
As a plugin author, and as a full-time dev, I think differently. My comments actually come from the criticism, the pride and the expectation I have directed to myself, which then reflect to my opinions of other projects.
I expect that I provide support for my plugins and the best quality products, no matter what the license is. Personally I also would like that other open source projects, including Textpattern, do the same, no matter what the background of the project is. If you are doing a free project, you do it as good as you can — like you would do a commercial product. You should always drive to be the best, take everything on. The maintainer shouldn't expect anything from anyone else. Donations and all are fun, but one shouldn't expect anything.
I don't expect or require anything from Textpattern or the devs. In my opinion they can do what they consider is best for the project. That's the sole right the maintainer should have. You do what you do. If you don't have PR then you don't have PR. Like for example I don't have PR and I do not expect anyone else to do it for me. I'm grateful if someone does, but I do not expect it.
Becoming maintainer of an open source project doesn't give one (like me) a free ticket to heaven, neither it gives one (like me) automatic rights to leave the project unsupported when ever one likes. It's commitment. You may not always like it, but you still have to do it.

Which reminds me that at Diaspora the only two TXP-tagged people I find is Els and my humble self, although one can actually read without the need to register
As for marketing and devs.. Most devs I know are not the go-public-and-rant type, so I personally would not expect them to do it. I feel that for those of us who have used Txp through the years and are feeling at home with this system, and have a more social inclination, the attempt to make Txp will be a natural drive. Just as natural as thinking in code for others is.

Re: Facebook and I
We have met the enemy and he is us. – Pogo
What is the most important point in this quote?
Textpattern, now in the hands of a small team of community members is not dead. It does, however, appear to be in something of a coma. The most recent release – a mere double-dot release – was 7 months ago. – Drew McClellan
For me, it is "community members." We are all "community members" whether we are developers or not. Some people write code. Other create plugins or templates or documenation or whatever. And some people just lurk. For me, there was a mighty long time between this post and that one. Even though I would come back and peruse the board from time to time, there just didn't seem to be much happening.
But these days we have new releases and facebook groups and meet-ups and 5.0 – it is much more exciting to be around. And when it comes to marketing,
The core developers aren't any different to anyone else on the forum in that respect. – Zem
To quote some guys from Liverpool…

Why? When was visibility abandonded being a marketing figure and turned into a technical aspect?
Jukka expressed my feelings in his reply.
Robert, I don't think anybody is asking you to start hopping planes and attending conventions. But you've got to acknowledge the fact that Textpattern is shrinking. When sites like TXPMag, TXPQ and We Love TXP stop publishing, there is a problem. When prominent plugin writers like Rob Sable get disillusioned, you have a problem. I'd link to the recent fork, but you've got that covered.
Back in 2005, when I started following Textpattern, there was an exodus of top level people. I can't find the forum thread, but the issues brought up then still exist to this day. The pep talks from davidm back then are now done by Destry, but it's the same long forum threads and nothing really happens.
Robert, if you honestly want to grow Textpattern, open it up to others and I don't mean just coders. Why have closed IRC meetings? How are you going to take over We Love TXP, when projects like the revamp of the resources site is hard to accomplish because of time constraints? This forum is an excellent example of inaction, the devs don't have the time to deal with it, then find someone to take over the forum conversion.
Textpattern is not dead, but give it another year of doing the same old thing, and it will take the same amount of effort to raise it back up, than it will be to take the code and promote it under another name. I don't believe the code behind this project will ever die, it's just getting to the point where the protection of the name is getting in the way of it's growth.

Re: Facebook and I
Everybody is saying smart things here. It's really nice to see.
I agree with Jukka in his outlook about where devs play a role. No matter how much they might hate it, they are captains of this ship, and thus have leadership responsibilities as such. But that doesn't mean they have to do the PR work, it just means they are responsible for seeing that it gets done. I think that's where things get misconstrued in all of this. If they don't (or can't because of time) want to do PR, they still need to find someone who can, and stand behind that person's efforts as an arm in the rightful cause of Txp.
The mistake that has happened through most of Txp's history, and this is where I sympathize with Jukka, is devs have never allocated the role to somebody; they've just kind of expected it to happen by the love of Txp alone, or whatever. Cast the bones and throw salt over the left shoulder. I'm sorry, but that's not a strategy, and I don't want to sound like a broken record, but look at where Txp is today. Not very far compared to other projects that have been around as long. And God/Goddess bless the devs, because they do damn good work, but Textpattern is a Bugatti that car collectors don't know exist. That is clearly a problem with PR.
I'd like to think we've come to a point in this conversation that we all agree there is a problem. Reflecting on the past to find reasons for where we are now is only so good that it does inspire change. Let's not put anybody on the hot seat of blame, rather let's decide what this project really wants to be in relation to all the other projects in the world and make a real plan for it. Not a plan of wishing upon a shooting star, but a real plan. A strategy! Ask yourselves, where do you see Textpattern in 5 years? If it's somewhere more than here, make it happen, don't just expect it to happen or 5 years may never come. Leadership must accept they are leaders, and get organized. Period.
I will always use Textpattern as long as it's actively worked on by people I trust. Even if it means it's down to me and one core developer. And I trust Robert and Stef and the others currently at the core. But time is more finite for this community if it keeps on the way it's been. I would bet on it. (Who's taking odds on the 5-year mark?)
Btw, I've been getting the sense that TXP 5 really is setting a brand standard for using "TXP"—not Txp or TxP or whatever. As point of example in all this PR stuff, I would recommend that it's made clear what the desired usage is so that this community can start using it correctly. The sooner the better. This is work in progress.
And this is where you can propose changes

Welcome to the Reed alumni web conference
The web conference is a virtual community where Reed alumni hang out and talk about everything Reedies like to talk about, from Achilles Shield to the Doyle Owl, from job networking to the usual bellyaching about the decline of Good Olde Reed. We hope this experiment will grow into a forum that extends the Reed intellectual experience beyond the time we spent on campus.
About the forum itself: it's not email, it's not chat. It's called conferencing. Long ago, the metaphor used was a bulletin board because it was somewhat descriptive of the interface. Someone posts a note. Someone else reads it, and decides to respond. A third person reads the first two, and joins in with a response. In this sort of conferencing, someone starts a topic, others come along and (hopefully) read what has been written in response to the topic, and join in. Or maybe they just sit back and read without participating. It's all free and requires very little technical knowledge. Beginners are welcome.
Please note: The Reed alumni web conference group is a wholly independent virtual community. Reed College and its employees have no role whatsoever in the management or oversight of the conference group itself. In addition, information and comments provided by members of the Reed alumni conference group reflect the personal interests of the members themselves. Postings in no way reflect the opinions, interests or views of Reed College or its departments and faculty.

Colorado River Basin snowpack and streamflow forecasts now similar to 1977, 2002 and 2012 drought years
Staff Report
FRISCO — Continued drought in the Far West, along with Colorado's push to develop a first-ever statewide water plan, should be reason enough for Coloradans to take an interest in the state of the Colorado River.
One of the best chances to get a user-friendly update is at the annual State of River meeting, sponsored by the Blue River Watershed Group.
Hands-on water experts will explain how this year's snowmelt will play out and how that affects operations of Dillon Reservoir and Green Mountain Reservoir — both for water deliveries downstream and for onsite recreational use.
To accommodate a bigger turnout, the State of the River presentation has been moved to the Silverthorne Pavilion (Tuesday, May 5, 6-8 p.m.) Continue reading "Colorado: Annual State of the River sessions include vital information on snowpack, stream flows and reservoirs"

Treatment for Six Characters, still 1, 2013
still from time-based work, digital photogprahic print, 16.5" x 11.7"
This photographic print is a a photographic film from the time-based work Treatment for Six Characters. It was made during a residency at the British school at Rome in 2012, and is aprt of a larger project of the same name. The project has been supported by several cultural institutions in Rome.
For the last ten years of his life Italian writer Luigi Pirandello wanted to make a film that could act as a precursor to his seminal 1921 meta-play 'Six Characters in Search of an Author'. It focused on his meetings with a Roman family, which acted as a catalyst for the creative development of his famous play and was to conclude with the premier of his play at Teatro Valle, Rome's oldest working theatre. In effect this meant Pirandello's film concludes with the event of the first public presentation of the play, the two works forming a kind of loop. He tried and failed to get Treatment for Six Characters made thirty-nine times.
During a Scholarship at the British School at Rome in 2012 Anne-Marie adapted Pirandello's original 1935 treatment, now narrated by veteran Italian actor Norman Mozzato (who was also Andrei Tarkovsky's Assistant Director on the film "Nostalgia"), and indeed set the final quarter of the film at Teatro Valle. This has been underpinned by the fact that this influential 1724 theatre is currently under occupation, now run by Fondazione Teatro Valle Occupato, considered an important occupied experiments in Europe. Teatro Valle Occupato collaborated with Anne-Marie, giving her on-going access to the theatre as well as supporting work with actors and lighting technicians. Pirandello's film is then not just set in the location he wished but also within a newly intense social and political space whose urgencies add new dimensions to the underlying risks of Pirandello's unrealized project.
Apart from a single sequence the locations of this Pirandello film - which also features Lo Studio di Luigi Pirandello and Fondazione Micol Fontana - has been lit and filmed without actors. This is part of Anne-Marie's deliberately oblique approach to Pirandello's text, exploring what can be called a 'cinema of the mind'. She has considered Pirandello's film as kind of ruin and from its fragments she sought not to make the film in its entirety but instead to construct one film around the paradoxical lures and failures of another, absent film.

SC man gets 30 years for 2008 Halloween killing
SUMTER, S.C. (AP) - A 27-year-old Sumter man has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for killing a trick-or-treater who knocked at his door on Halloween 2008.
Quentin Patrick was sentenced Tuesday after pleading guilty to murder in the death of T.J. Darrisaw.
Prosecutors say the 12-year-old boy was shot at least a dozen times as he stood on the porch of Patrick's home. The boy's stepfather and a brother were wounded.
Patrick is a convicted drug dealer and said he fired his AK-47 because he thought a rival drug dealer was back to shoot him again. Patrick has already been sentenced to more than 16 years in federal prison after pleading guilty to being a felon in possession of a weapon.Copyright 2013 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Three Echinochloa crus-galli (barnyardgrass) populations from rice fields in Arkansas (AR1 and AR2) and Mississippi (MS1), USA, were recently confirmed to be resistant to imazethapyr. Experiments were conducted to characterize cross-resistance to acetolactate synthase- (ALS-) inhibiting herbicides and determine if malathion, a known cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (CYP) inhibitor, would overcome resistance. The AR1 and MS1 populations were cross-resistant to bispyribac-sodium; however, AR2 was sensitive to bispyribac-sodium. The AR1, AR2, and MS1 populations were >94, >94, and 3.3 times, respectively, more resistant to imazamox; >94, 30, and 9.4 times, respectively, more resistant to penoxsulam; and 15, 0.9, and 7.2 times, respectively, more resistant to bispyribac-sodium compared to a susceptible population. Addition of malathion to penoxsulam reduced dry weight of all populations and increased mortality of AR2 and MS1 populations compared to penoxsulam alone. Addition of malathion to imazethapyr and bispyribac-sodium increased the mortality of MS1 population in mixture with imazethapyr and AR1 population in mixture with bispyribac-sodium compared to treatments with imazethapyr and bispyribac-sodium applied alone. Synergism of ALS-inhibiting herbicides with malathion indicates increased herbicide degradation by CYP as partial mechanism of resistance to penoxsulam in all resistant populations and probably to imazethapyr in MS1 and bispyribac-sodium in AR1 populations.

Went ALL IN for the summer
Hey guys I've been stalking this site for awhile now and thought I'd join in the all the fun. The wife and I bought our first boat a few months back when people were starting to off load theirs prior to winter.
We were looking to just get started off with an in/out board mainly because of the price aspect. The more people we talked to just seemed everyone started that way and were eventually kicking themselves for not buying an inboard and were later upgrading.
Took a little trip Atlanta Marine and the wife fell in love with the Mondo but I had a heart attach at the price. Being our first boat I didn't want to jump into the deep end with a new boat so we picked up an 2008 LSV of the ole interweb.
That's enough jaw jacking on to the Pics.
ps.. great prices in the fall but tired of staring at a boat in the garage that's dying to get wet.

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 13 (UPI) -- The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency has signed a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with Overwatch of Texas.
The CRADA is to further develop and enhance current Overwatch geospatial software solutions, as well as initiate development and integration of new products and capabilities that allow for better exploitation of geospatial Intelligence data.
The company said the agreement is for five years and provides for commercial off-the-shelf geospatial analysis products, such as RemoteView Professional, Feature Analyst, LIDAR Analyst, Mensuration, RemoteView Video Tracking, RemoteView 3D Professional, GeoCatalog and RemoteView Connect.
Results of the CRADA will be shared with the National Systems for Geospatial Intelligence, Overwatch said, and the NGA has the option of demonstrating new products to selected working groups and technology forums.
"This is an exciting opportunity for Overwatch and NGA, with focused attention on increased workflow efficiency and creating new avenues for solving intelligence issues," said Overwatch Vice President of Geospatial Products and Solutions Stuart Blundell. "This is a great example of industry and government working together to provide advanced tools for GEOINT professionals."
Overwatch is an operating unit of Textron Systems.

Today marks a year since Christian was admitted into the hospital for dehydration following his adenoidectomy and tube surgery and then a bout of strep. It was a very stressful time. He wouldn't eat or drink and was very listless. It isn't often one of my boys refuses food!!!
Ross was hospitalized a few years ago following a severe asthma attack. He even arrived at the hospital via ambulance from the doctor's office. I had been giving him breathing treatments and puffs of his inhaler but those weren't making his breathing any easier. That was a very scary time.
Every time one of my children has been sick or physically hurt, I couldn't help but think of countless families who live with a terminally ill child. I can't imagine the emotional, physical, and financial toll it takes on parents and siblings. I am so thankful that my boys are healthy. Even though the hospital stays were painful to go through, I praise God for them because it helps me realize how good we have it. It made me count my blessings!

Authorities are searching for the suspect in a bank robbery Friday evening in Downtown Wheeling.
According to Wheeling police, the incident happened just after 4 p.m. at the Chase Bank on Market Street.
The suspect entered the bank, passed a crumpled note to the teller, and asked her for the money in the drawer. He also showed the teller a gun that was in his right pocket. After receiving about $2800 in cash, the suspect then fled the building, entered into a vehicle on the street and drove off, according to police. The get-away vehicle was described as a late 1990's early 2000's Chrysler Sebring, four door, with a female driver and one to three more passengers in the vehicle.
Surveillance footage provided by the bank captured clear photos of the suspect when he approached the teller and then again as he exited the bank.
He is described as a white male, about six feet tall, thin build with brown hair. He was last seen wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, red bandana and sunglasses. An eyewitness also claims that the suspect had a large mole on his left check.
