text: I'm a member of a once-large Texas family that's dwindled over time to just two people: My Aunt Annie, now 100 years old, and me, her nephew, and I now live far from Azle, near Washington, DC. Over the past 10 years....more that 10, possibly...I managed to visit my Aunt somewhat often, as work schedules permitted, but not nearly frequently enough to attend to her needs. With her advanced age, those needs increased, and I felt helpless to find a solution. At about this time, Aunt Annie was blessed to have Good N.E.W.S. enter her life. The experienced and dedicated staff seemed to know exactly what to do, how to do it, and when to do it, and they volunteered their time unselfishly to ensure medical needs were attended to, living conditions were acceptable, and general needs were met. This enabled my Aunt Annie to remain living at home. She's a fiercely independent Texas lady, and wanted nothing more than to stay in her own home, and Good N.E.W.S. helped to make that happen. In later years, the level of her needs increased, but the volunteers dedication never wavered. Over time, I became aware countless instances of exceptional good deeds exceeding any expectations, continuing to provide a comfortable living situation for Aunt Annie and peace of mind for me. Terri and Joyce were involved in her life, and they made all the difference. Good N.E.W.S. is an amazing organization serving a critical need in the Azle community, and is deserving of all possible support. I simply can't put into words what a difference Good N.E.W.S., and their extraordinary team, made in the life of an amazing Texas lady, my Aunt Annie.

Gianfranco Zola talks Merse and Fenners through his #One2Eleven
Gianfranco Zola talks Merse and Fenners through his One2Eleven on Fantasy Football Club.
Last Updated: 21/03/13 11:10am
The Watford boss talked us through his selection, explaining: "I hope you like my team - I think it is a little bit more offensive than defensive, but hopefully you'll excuse me for that.
"If the back four work a little bit harder, then with the rest of the players we can create enough problems for the opposition."
But did Fantasy Football Club guest Gus Poyet make the cut? Check out Gianfranco's team below, playing in a 4-3-3 formation.
GOALKEEPER - Gianluigi Buffon: I played with him in Parma. You could never score against him. He was incredible - you could see he was a different class of goalkeeper. We could stay there at the end of the training session to take shots and it would always be very difficult to beat him.
RIGHT-BACK - Lilian Thuram: I also played with Lilian in Parma. I had some other picks, like Albert Ferrer, who was very good with me at Chelsea but defensively he wasn't as strong as Lilian.
LEFT-BACK - Paolo Maldini: He's not a bad pick! Although I've had good players in that position - such as Alberto Di Chiara at Parma, who was very good going forward. At Chelsea we had players like Graeme Le Saux, who did very well for us, and Celestine Babayaro. But Maldini is probably one of the best - if not the best - left defender of the century so I go for him. I played with him in the national team, not at club level. It was always a pleasure to play with him.
CENTRE-HALF - Franco Baresi: I played with him for the national team, as well, and he was from a different planet. He was difficult to beat in a one-on-one situation, plus he was good with the ball. He was a great leader on the pitch.
CENTRE-HALF - Fabio Cannavaro: He's one of the few defenders that own the Golden Ball. Man-to-man he was basically unbeatable. He was very good.
HOLDING MIDFIELDER - Dennis Wise: He had good competition from players like Didier Deschamps, Demetrio Albertini and Alemao, who played with me in Naples. But I believe that Dennis beats the competiton because he was clever and a good leader.
RIGHT MIDFIELD - Gustavo Poyet: He was such an intelligent player and he had the fantastic ability of scoring important goals at important moments in important matches.
LEFT MIDFIELD - Roberto Di Matteo: Another Chelsea legend. He knew how to play the midfield role in every aspect. He could organise the team defensively and also finish.
RIGHT STRIKER - Careca: An unbelievable striker - I played with him in Naples. Strong, quick and technically fantastic.
LEFT STRIKER - Roberto Baggio: He's another fantastic player. Maybe he's out of position a little bit but I will allow him to come inside a little bit! He's got fantastic ability and is an intelligent player - good in all the aspects of the game. He gets in ahead of Faustino Asprilla, who I played with at Parma. He's another fantastic player who deserved to be in the team but I can only play 11.
CENTRE FORWARD - Diego Maradona: He's my first choice on the teamsheet. It goes without saying that we are talking about football. He was inspirational for me and he was inspirational for many others that played with him. In Naples we used to play against other teams - Milan, for example, who had players like Van Basten, Ruud Gullit and Rijkaard. Although they were good, you could see the difference between them and Diego. He was on a different level.

Obedience Dog Training - Off Leash Dog Training - Severe Behavior
Miami Dog Training - Fort Lauderdale Dog Training - Palm Beach Dog Training
South Florida dog training by an expert & behaviorist
K9 ADVISORS has successfully trained hundreds of dogs over the years in the Miami, Broward and Palm Beach area. I am the founder, and I travel throughout South Florida to help dogs and their owners with everything from basic dog training to solving severe behavior problems. My results-oriented approach resolves dog behavior issues and successful trains dogs to be predictable and obedient. With my dog training system, I will also train owners to properly interact and work with any dog. Many people ask me, "How long does it take you to train a dog?", my answer is, "It depends on how smart the owner is". The reality is that it takes about three times as long to condition a person than it does a dog. This is because dogs think in a very linear and simple manner, where as people think in a very complex manner. Therefore, people tend to question each step when dogs just do what is asked of them. My training programs show the owner how to be clear and consistent with words and body language, so that a dog will be focused and do what is asked. My dog training methods are based on psychological conditioning principles - this makes it very easy for the dog to be trained in minutes, and simple for the person to understand. While I utilize various conditioning strategies, the elemental factor of praise is the most important of all. I always tell my clients that "A little praise goes a looooong way". You will be surprised at how much a dog is willing to do with just a little praise. My systematic technique is founded on precisely timed praise, indirect corrections, and ending with praise. The conclusion of any dog training session should always include praise, as this leads to immediate results. Choosing a qualified dog trainer is not an easy task. Many people have taken a few online courses or read a few books or seen a few videos and consider themselves "certified dog trainers." They may even carry a card that says "Certified Dog Trainer". There is no uniform certification for dog trainers. Many different dog training courses provide their own certification, but no nationally recognized system has been established.

14 Actors Who Would Be Worse Than Bradley Cooper In The Role Of Indiana Jones
If you haven't heard yet that they're talking about doing an Indiana Jones reboot, then let me be the first to tell you — they're doing an Indiana Jones reboot. And as if that wasn't enough to get pulses up, Bradley Cooper's name is being tossed around for the title role, as a replacement for Harrison Ford.
Guys. People are really upset about it. Even though it hasn't been confirmed — and in fact it's even been denied, that hasn't stopped people from overreacting on a massive level. You know, the usual stuff saying he's not right for it, and that they're gonna boycott the movie, and blah blah blah.
So just to put things in perspective, in case he does end up getting the role, here are fourteen actors who'd be way worse. Let's all untwist our panties in unison, okay?
1. Ben Affleck
There would come a knock on the door during the first read, and he'd just be standing there like, "Hi there. I heard there was a leading male role here, and I may not be right for it, but that's never stopped me before."
2. Benedict Cumberbatch
I love the guy, but he's a thinker, not a doer. That's why he's so perfect as Sherlock.
3. Ryan Reynolds
Way too pretty and doll-like. And I have all these visions of him mugging straight into the camera if he got into a pickle.
4. Harrison Ford
5. Jason Segel
I have a feeling I'd love watching this movie for the first twenty minutes or so, and then the novelty would've worn off. But that said, let's make this a web series post-haste please!
6. Jaden Smith
You laugh, but if Will Smith somehow became a producer on this, he'd make it happen.
7. Jesse Eisenberg
YESSSSSSSSSS. What would this movie even be…and why am I obsessed with it.
8. Channing Tatum
But only for the musical version.
The going trend right now is to put her in any movie that producers want to get legs, but please resist the urge, Hollywood. The reason that you have such a clear image in your head of her running in a leather coat is The Hunger Games, not a sign that this could totally work.
10. Tim Burton's Johnny Depp™
Not the regular version, the Burton version. I can literally feel my brain stretching and aching just imagining the costumes.
11. Ashton Kutcher
No matter how many notes he was given on this performance, I have a feeling it would end up being like 40% Kelso, 58% Tarzan, and 2% Indiana Jones, but if he invented Apple.
12. Daniel Day Lewis
He'd probably do a great job, he just takes things so seriously that I'd be worried someone would be literally murdered on set.
13. Robin Williams
What is the thing that Indy fears most? Because I think we'd need to have a lot of that on hand, just in case we couldn't get him to shut up
at some point all the time.
14. John Travolta
And finally, the crown jewel — a casting choice so frozen-faced and wrong that it literally made my coworker grimace and groan aloud when I brought it up.
Are you ready for Bradley now? Yeah, that's what I thought.

Hi Guys,
Im completely new here and throwing myself to your mercy! I have always been an individual who suffers low confidence. However as a Psychology Graduate I know its important to embrace my fears and to think positively. But I dont find that easy. I have just completed a masters degree where I got a distinction. Pretty impressive but for some reason I still really lack confidence in my own ability. On this course I stumbled through presentations with dread!!
My problems now stem from the fact that I have moved from one side of the counrty to the other to live with my boyfriend. Our relationship is going great, but he is actually the only person I have here. He works full time, and I currently have no job.
I Miss my family terribly, but if i bring it up I feel guilty on my boyf. We had to move here because of his job. When I first moved here I was doing uni work so I had a purpose in my day. Now I have finished and I feel lost and with no reason to get out of bed. I have applied to jobs with no luck. I think this makes me more anxious and low in confidence! Also where I live now is much more rural so jobs are lower.
I feel I don't know how to make friends. I make these easily when in the right situation but I can;t seem to meet people. I know my boyfriends friends but thats it. I am really bad at worrying what others think of me. Some days I wont leave the house even to go to the post office because I think people may talk about me! Its really getting me down. I dont want to ruin my relationship through me feeling hopeless.
Does ne1 else ever feel like this. No matter how many times my boyf or parents tell me to have more confidence I just cant. Im young and should be enjoying life, but feel like its passing me by!
Thanks for letting me vent

I understand that you have been having trouble adjusting to your move and graduation from school. Such a transition can be difficult. You may want to find a therapist to talk to about your feelings and change in behavior.

i get like that too, ive moved with a new baby and fiance, and dont know a soul. but it does help having the baby at times to move my ass outta bed every morning lol. i get the fear of going to the grocery store a lot lately. i do believe its anxiety because you are feeling alone, and perhaps singled out, for being a stranger person in a new place. you'll have good days and bad days, but never say to yourself theres no reason to get out of bed in the morning, theres always a reason even if is just to do a pile of laundry, or go for a walk, i find exercise really gets rid of my anxiety a great deal. infact one thing that really spurs me along is one walk in the neighborhood a day. you go by other people on the street, and see your not alone, other people are doin things by themselves too. its a ll about challenging yourself, face your fears smoothly, go to the post office more often if our scared of it, and strike u a conversation with the clerk so that you see them face to face and dont wonder what they think, dont live inside your head there is nobody in there but you, and that is lonley and depressing. we only really get an impression of ourselves if we continue to get feedback from other people. if you had moved there completely solo i bet you would have met more people by now, bc you would have pushed yourself, i think sometimes when we are with someone we forget the importance of being social.
to start join a club, anyone be it dancing or books or whatever. dont think theres something wrong with you because this tends to lend to the problem, what your feeling is normal, and wil get easier, probably already has, i could have wrote ur message a month ago!

Music Journalist, music promoter and musician, Jordannah Elizabeth is a person totally compromised with art and music in all the possible ways. In this opportuniy we have the pleasure to share a few questions about her work and her music as Makeshivt Kity, her solo musical project that will release a new album "Harvest Time" on march, and will have colaborations from members of The Flying Eyes, Scorpion Child, and The Vandelles.
Periodista musical, promotora musical y artista también Jordannah Elizabeth es una persona totalmente comprometida con el arte y la música en todas las maneras posibles. En estas oportunidad tuvimos el gusto de compartir algunas preguntas acerca de su trabajo y su música como Makeshivt Kity, su proyecto musical solista que lanzara su nuevo álbum "Harvest Time" en marzo de este año, que contara con colaoraciones de miembros de The Flying Eyes, Scorpion Child, y The Vandelles
Makeshivt Kity music is a mix of all the different Jordannah musical influences put into songs where she express her fellings about life. A deep voice melted among acoustic tunes and electronic sounds, creating an relaxing atmosphere with some psychedelic details. Jordannah's voice is very expressive, this is the most important Makeshivt Kity instument. Her lyrics give us a view of her fellings, sometimes reminding Mazzy Star more acoustic songs. Makeshivt Kity music create enchanting melodies and delicated no conventional pop sounds.
La música de Makeshivt Kity es una mezcla de todas las influencias musicales de Jordannah puestas en canciones en las cuales expresa sus sentimientos hacia la vida. Una voz profunda entre acordes acústicos y sonidos electrónicos creando una atmósfera relajante adornada con algunos detalles de psicodelia. La voz de Jordannah es muy expresiva, este es el instrumento mas importante de Makeshivt Kity. Sus letras nos dan una ventana a sus sentimientos a veces recordando las canciones mas acústicas de Mazzy Star. Makeshivt Kity crea melodías encantadoras y delicadas canciones pop no convencionales.
- How did you come to create music?
Well, I always thought of myself as a writer, and I actually started out studying mass communications like television, radio, film and computer science. My father had a radio show when my brothers and I were young, and he was a popular preacher, so we were always around people and at events. He was on television every week because he went to a large church and sat on the pulpit. The services were broadcasted every Sunday.
Music? I guess I transitioned from writing stories, scripts and poems to writing songs. My mom bought me a guitar when I was 13 years old. It was a Christmas present. I taught myself to play it and wrote songs. It came naturally.
I ended up going to college and studying music after I found out the English program didn't have enough students interested in literature, to allow me to major….
So music has always taken precedent in my life by default. I love it. I'm obsessed with it, but kind of more on an analytical level. Makeshivt Kity albums are birthed through concepts and stories, more than my feelings.
- Can you talk about your previous releases or projects?
Yeah, I named myself Makeshivt Kity at a bar in a small town in Colorado called Manitou Springs. I was 18, and I played the singer/songwriter night and the open mic night every week. Makeshivt Kity means, that I'm a girl who is just kind of self made, from all these little experiences and elements of life.
I recorded a couple of lofi albums of a Roland 4 track recorder in Denver that never came to light. They were lost albums called "Dagger of Love" and "I Will Kill You with My Dagger of Love"…which was a quote, and some type of sexy threat by my producer from Witchta, Kansas called Lowgun. He told me, "I will kill you with my dagger of love, I will kill you with my dagger of passion…", and I was like "woah"…
My professional career stated with Makeshivt Kity's "Los Angeles EP". I recorded with this music genius savant, called Tall City in his attic in Colorado Springs, CO. I wrote it after living in Los Angeles, and drinking too much and getting burned out and dumped by a musician I was dating, and I recorded the album in 7 days. I moved back to L.A. after the album was done and ended up homeless. Nonetheless, warner bros. called me and were interested in this weird ass little lofi album I did. I did some label shopping, but decided to publish my albums on a small net label in Spain called Trastienda.org.
The Holy Implant LP was the next record. It was a follow up to the Los Angeles EP. My life had taken a terrible down turn between albums and The Holy Implant LP is very very dark. It's about a woman who was slowly losing her mind. I was very influenced by The Warlocks then and the album reflects that a bit.
Love Forever was about a rock star ex boyfriend and our relationship, and how it ended.
- What are your influences, musical or otherwise?
Nina Simone, Betty Carter, The Warlocks, Brian Jonestown Massacre, Blondie, Apollo Heights, Bach, Mozart, John Coltrane, Jacob Hales…lofi tape music, anti folk, minimalism, psych rock, classical art songs and arias, men, lovers, musicians, artists, Los Angeles, Brooklyn, sex, time, love, compassion, spiritually, Christianity, God, Death, pain, lies, drama, passion, intrigue, karma…life.
- How would you describe your sound?
Depends on the album. But I guess I can sum it up as, psychedelic soul music.
- What can you tell us about your songwriting process?
Eh, it generally takes about two years to produce a new album. I have to live a while to write an MK album. I think, I feel and once I feel like I've learned enough or have a concept in mind, I slowly work towards creating songs. I write songs on an acoustic guitar. I usually collaborate with super weird off kilter producers, but this new album Harvest Time was done all by me on garage band. I didn't enjoy recording the entire album on my own. I like working with people who think and create differently than I do.
- What do you have to say about the state of music today?
Music is art. Music is a creation. It always will be. Whether songs are written on a beat machine or are laced with auto tune, they come from a human soul and human hands. No one can take that away from us. So, I don't worry about anything else.
- What's next for you as an artist?
Promo, travel and live shows.
- What recent music can you recommend?
Bands I'm literally following right now:
Smoke Bellow, The Water, Whoarfrost, The Flying Eyes, The Warlocks, Romantic States, Dead Meadow, Robson Gomes (Robsongs)…
Music I play constantly:
Dead Meadow and Betty Carter

SALT LAKE CITY — Too many questions and concerns over a bill that would ban the smoking of e-cigarettes and hookah pipes in public places prompted a panel of lawmakers Monday to put the legislation on hold.
HB245, sponsored by Rep. Bradley Last, R-Hurricane, would amend the state's Indoor Clean Air Act to define the use electronic cigarettes and hookah pipes as smoking, therefore prohibiting their use in public places.
Public testimony before the House Government Operations Standing Committee was largely divided between the health risks of using e-cigarettes and hookah pipes and the rights of adults who are made aware of the risks to use the products.
But some lawmakers said they had reservations about a bill that would effectively put hookah bars out of business when the data over health risks is unclear. Representatives of the Huka Bar and Grill in Murray said the bill would put 90 people out of work.
Other lawmakers said they needed more time to study the proposal.
Some opponents took issue with the bill treating e-cigarettes the same as hookah pipes.
Jecinda Ross, of West Jordan, said she was a cigarette smoker for many years but has quit thanks to e-cigarettes. "I've been smoke free since August 2010. I have no desire to smoke any more," Ross said.
But others maintained that the use of either product in public places is not prohibited under state law because the state's clean air act bans combustion of tobacco and e-cigarettes and hookahs do not burn material.
Last summer, the Utah Department of Health adopted a rule banning the use of hookah and e-cigarettes in public places but has not enforced the rule awaiting legislative action on the issue.
Bob Wall, attorney for the city of South Jordan, said municipalities need consistent state policy to regulate the use of e-cigarettes and hookah pipes.
"Cities may be preempted from dealing with this issue themselves," Wall said.
Two physicans representing anti-tobacco groups said the state needs to get in front the issue, even as the health impacts of hookah and e-cigarettes are still being researched.
Dr. Kevin Nelson, representing Pediatricians Against Secondhand Smoke, said Last's bill is "'better safe than sorry' legislation."
"In Utah, we have no children to spare. We have no families to spare. We have no adults to spare," he said.4 comments on this story
But Nathan Porter, whose family owns Huka Bar and Grill, said children are not allowed in his establishment so arguments about the effects on children do not apply. That said, Porter said the use of hookah should not be permitted in public places where children congregate such as schools or playgrounds.
But adults who understand the health risks of using a hookah should have the right to to choose whether they want to patronize his family's establishment, Porter said. "I want adults making adult informed decisions."
Rep. Brian Doughty, D-Salt Lake, who said he owns a hookah for personal use, said he opposes HB245 because it overreaches into personal choices.
"I can make decisions about businesses I frequent," he said. "I don't need the government to infringe on that right."

Like most people, I have a list that I keep (mostly just in my head) of things I want to do with my leisure time. Exploring some of Indiana's wineries has been on this list for quite some time. But with two little kids at home, activities like that are typically put on the back burner when the weekends roll around.
That's why I was excited to hear about the Uncork the Uplands event on July 21. While only requesting a babysitter for one night, I can experience the wine of several wineries�from the�Indiana Uplands Wine Trail�as well as dine on delicious food from more than 20 tasting tables. Chef Daniel Orr from FARM Bloomington will give a cooking demonstration. The event is designed for both wine connoisseurs and novices alike.
Tickets are $75 per person (a pretty good deal when you realize all the wine and food included). The event will be held at Huber Winery, 19816 Huber Road, in�Starlight, Indiana on Saturday, July 21 from 5-10 p.m. All attendees will receive a souvenir wine glass.
Participating wineries include:
This definitely seems like a unique event worthy of penciling in on your calendar this summer. It's like 20 date nights all rolled into one yummy package.

Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia
In Georgia, how long is a child support petition good for? The mother of my child said she filed 8 years ago, are these papers still valid?
1 Answer from Attorneys
It depends on whether an order was ever entered in the case she filed. If so, it depends on the language of the order. If an order was entered 8 years ago, set no time limits, and the case was never dismissed, then the order is probably still valid. If she opened a case with child support recovery, and no order was ever signed by a judge, the case may still be open but you may not owe anything. You need to pull a copy of the entire court file, take it to an attorney to look at, and see where you stand. Your best course of action may be inaction, but you need to find out in case something needs to be done.

Emmy Award Winners 2011: Kate Winslet and Downton Abbey Scoop Awards
British born actress Kate Winslet and Downton Abbey writer Julian Fellowes both scooped prizes in this year's Emmy Awards ceremony held in Los Angeles on Sunday.
The two marked a night of great performances staged by British actors in the annual award ceremony held in Los Angeles Nokia Theatre.
Winslet won an award for her role as Mildred Pierce where she acted as a mother in the Great Depression.
The five part mini-series documentary which she won the award for was filmed immediately after she broke up with her lover Sam Mendes.
Guy Pearce who is a co-star also won the award of the outstanding supporting actor in mini-series or movie.
Known for her emotional speeches 35-year-old Winslet was emotionally moved by the win and heaped praise on her own mother saying she was instrumental in the win. She testified that her mother would forever remain important to her.
She said: "Mildred Pierce was capable of great acts of love as a mother. It doesn't matter how old you are or what you do with your life, you will never stop needing your mum. And I will never stop needing mine, so thanks mum."

Any sale or transfer of capital asset which gives profit comes under the law of capital gains tax Arizona. The capital assets in Arizona include the real estate property, stocks, bonds, futures and mutual investment funds.The capital gains tax Arizona may vary with the type of the capital. For example a capital may be either a short-term capital or a long-term capital in Arizona. If certain asset or capital is held for less than 1 year, the capital is a short-term capital while the capitals, which are held for more than 1 year, are termed as long-term capitals. The short term capitals in Arizona are taxed at the same as the ordinary income rate. In Arizona, the capital gains tax rate on the long term capitals was reduced to 15% in 2003 while for the individuals falling in the lowest two income brackets, the capital gains tax on long-term capital is 5% in Arizona. However, the tax rate will change in 2011 and the rate previous to 2003, which was 20%, will be implemented again.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) of the USA allows the individuals to defer the capital gains taxes in Arizona as well as in other states too with some tax planning strategies like Charitable Trust (CRT), Structured Sale (Ensured Installment Sale), Private Annuity Trust, Installment Sale and 1031 exchange.
According to the 1031 exchanges in Arizona, after the sale of the old property; the money earned is invested to buy a new property thus deferring the capital gains taxes. There are a number of agencies in Arizona who expertise in giving the 1031 Exchange solutions to their clients. The assets that are mainly sold and purchased under the 1031 Exchange in Arizona are rental property, bare land, primary residence and commercial buildings.
There are some capital gains exemptions available in Arizona. The individuals who sell the primary residence can exclude up to $250,000 of capital gains tax while the married couples can escape up to $500,000 of capital gains tax. In the cases when an individual experiences both the capital gains and capital losses in the same tax year, the capital gains taxes get cancelled over the losses incurred.

Augusta missed frozen mayhem by a mere two degrees Thursday, but winter is far from over.
"Ice storms are rare enough that it's hard to make blanket statements about them," said Assistant Georgia State Climatologist Pam Knox. "But we can look up the most likely months for snow."
Based on records kept since 1961, more snow falls in Augusta in February than in January, she said.
Historically, the average January snowfall is 0.3 inch, while February's average is 1 inch. The remaining 10 months of the year have an average of zero.
"This time it hung just above freezing, so there wasn't time to develop much of anything," she said of Thursday's cold, rainy mix. "But there is still time left for other storms."
The record one-day snowfall in Augusta occurred in February 1973, when 14 inches were recorded at Augusta Regional Airport.
With a window of several weeks remaining for winter weather, Thursday's preparations for ice that never materialized turned into a good practice session.
"We had all our crews across the state ready and packed for seven days," said Georgia Power Co. spokesman John Sell. "We also had people in south Georgia on standby to move north."
Locally, Columbia County's Emergency Services Department made preparations to spread salt and sand on icy roads and fired up its emergency command center.
"There were hundreds of people on standby when you consider all the departments that would have a role," director Pam Tucker said. "We were just two degrees away. That can make all the difference in the world."

Save Our Benefit Welcomes New Organization Aboard
WASHINGTON , July 09 /Businesswire/ - The Coalition to Save Our Military Shopping Benefits today announced that the Fleet Reserve Association (FRA) has joined the Coalition. FRA is the second organization in two weeks to become a "Valued Associate" in the Coalition's efforts to protect shopping benefits for military personnel and their families. The Fleet Reserve Association represents current and former enlisted Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard personnel and their families. Its principal program is its legislative advocacy work on Capitol Hill focused on pay, health care, benefits and quality of life programs.
"The FRA has represented the Sea Service Community for over 87 years," said Patrick Nixon, President of the Coalition to Save Our Military Shopping Benefits. "FRA has been a historical leader in the fight to protect benefits and pay for members of the Sea Service community."
Save Our Benefit advocates for the protection of the military resale system, which saves military families millions each year with its shopping benefits and provides billions of dollars in on-base aid. These benefits are being threatened by efforts to balance the budget, the Deficit Reduction Panel, looming sequestration, and various individual and committee measures taking place in Congress.
"Recently, Save Our Benefit urged Congress to protect military resale programs from cuts or consolidation. These benefits are vital to the families and we welcome anyone with similar goals," Nixon said.
"The work of the Save Our Benefit Coalition is very important, and we're pleased to support these efforts as a Valued Associate organization," said Joe Barnes, FRA's National Executive Director. "The military resale system is an essential part of the military benefits package, and we must work together to ensure adequate and sustained funding and support for DeCA and the military Exchange Systems."
In addition to its advocacy work, since 2000 the Association's scholarship program (now under the FRA Education Foundation) has provided more than 270 scholarships totaling in excess of $1 million. FRA believes that educating service members and veterans is an important duty and has been instrumental in ensuring the Post-9/11 GI Bill benefit was available to military personnel who previously had no education benefits.

Delany making sure league members do their share financially
Bob Asmussen chats at noon every Tuesday. Submit questions here
Jim Delany counts off the economic downturns during his professional career like they are football scores.
"I've been through more than a single recession," Delany said. "In college athletics, the first one I recall was the '73-74 oil shock. We had one in '82. We had a stock market crash in '87. We had another downturn in '90-92. We had the tech bubble in 2000 and we have this. I think this may be qualitatively different both in its length as well as its depth."
The current slide isn't lost on the Big Ten commissioner. But it also isn't sending him into a panic. You don't run a high-powered conference for two decades without plenty of patience.
No changes in the Big Ten's bowl structure. No ban on long trips. No salary cap for coaching salaries.
"We'll be planning for the long run," Delany said. "Whether this is a 12-to-18 month downturn or an 18-to-36 month downturn, it's a downturn. And it's going to come back. We have to deal with the realities that we're in."
Delany and conference leaders spent part of their recent meetings talking about the economy. The solutions can be addressed at three levels, Delany said, starting with the schools.
"There's been a lot of discussion conceptually," Delany said. "People are all preparing their '09-10 budgets right now. Some people have budgets of $50 million. Some people have $100. Some people sponsor 30 sports. Some people sponsor 17. How they travel, when they travel, who they play, where they play, etc., are all on the table. That's how it should be."
Any push to scale back travel during the Big Ten season will be left to the schools. If Illinois decides to takes buses to Ohio State rather than fly, the league won't object.
What Delany wants, and what the league demands, is equity. It's fine for one school to take a lead in economic issues as long as the others are willing to follow.
"We'll encourage our schools to talk to each other," Delany said. "The two schools want to mirror each other."
The conference is also preparing next year's budget. Delany said there will be no growth in spending at the league level. And no decline.
"We're not adding anybody," Delany said. "We're not firing anybody. Everything will be flat, from personnel to travel to everything else."
At the national level, Delany said, he doesn't expect a push for scholarship cuts. College football coaches are uncomfortable with 85 full rides. They would strongly fight any further reduction.
"I think everything else is sort of on the table," Delany said.
A change in ticket prices will be considered.
"We're sort of in between a want and a need," Delany said. "The more rabid the fan base, the better we're insulated. But it's still discretionary spending. It's not food. It's not water. It's not education. It's entertainment.
"Generally speaking around the country, I think you're going to see a lot of effort to woo the fan to make the ticket as reasonable and as empathetically priced as possible. It is a difficult time. Our fans have been loyal to us in the good times and I think we need to show loyalty to them at a time when things are difficult for them."
The economic downturn hasn't had a major impact on the Big Ten Network, Delany said.
"It's doing fine," Delany said. "In fact, they're adding a little bit of personnel. They are quite a bright spot in the overall pantheon of the media story. They're profitable. They have more than met their advertising goals for the year."

Written on: 17/03/2011 by Mr Sam Samson (1 review written)
I am happy with the performance of this lugagge. the denier nylon is what everybody is talking about that it is made out of buletproof material. The wheels are very soft to move around and they also keep me easy to handle the length of the bag to the gravity ratio as theya re adjustable and stable without the movement which make them loose.
I got the Crew model from a place called LuggageExpress.co.uk on the internet I found it a bit cheaper from other people luck me as it was not that cheap, But I guess if they make cheap bags they might just loose the credibility or might be that the cost of manufacturing with good quality material must be very high. In any case comin back to the bag the internal organistaion lets you store evrything nicely you are bale to hang suits and all important hodlding straps with elsasticated retractors are there.
try one to find out the goodness of these bags.


text: LAME mp3-encoder was designed as an open-source application for many years and now it's the best mp3-encoder ever! LAME gives you the best possible quality/compression, provides lots of function and works very fast. The original LAME mp3-encoder is aviable from the official homepage (www.mp3dev.org), but it's only aviable as a console-application. Such console-applications are very flexible, but most users prefer to work with GUI (graphical user interface) applications. LameXP is a GUI for the LAME mp3-encoder, that makes it much more comfortable to use LAME. Using LameXP is very easy, because the user-interface has been desingned as simple as possible and it uses the new WindowsXP style.Note: Some antivirus and antispyware programs flag LameXP as being infected/malware, although the application is perfectly safe and does not pose a threat to your system. This is called a 'false positive'. The term false positive is used when antivirus software wrongly classifies an innocuous ( inoffensive ) file as a virus. The incorrect detection may be due to heuristics or to an incorrect virus signature in a database. [Similar problems can occur with antitrojan or antispyware software.]Here are some key features of "LameXP":· Creates MP3 (MPEG 1.0 Audio-Layer III) files· Provides a graphical user-interface for WindowsXP· Provides the highest possible MP3 quality/compression-rate· Supports PCM Wave-Audio files, MP3 files and raw PCM files· Supports bitrate-based and quality-based compression· Supports variable bitrate MP3 files and avarge bitrate encoding· Supports Mono, Stereo, Joint Stereo and Dual Mono· Supports ID3 Tags (ID3v1 and ID3v2)· Supports Resampling and Stereo/Mono Downmixing· Supports various encoder quality/speed modes http://download.softpedia.com/dl/411...2010-02-21.zip

Diversionary's Falling: rarely happy
Autistics lack internal brain map
Jeff Smith 12:30 p.m., Nov. 22
Emily Moberly says you, too, can use your car to make a little extra money.
What is Lyft?
Lyft is a better alternative to a cab! It's your "friend with a car" as they say on the website. Drivers (like me) are matched with passengers who request rides through the Lyft iPhone or Android app.
How long have you been driving for Lyft, and how did you get involved?
I started as a passenger. I met so many cool drivers that I decided to look into it as a way to make some extra cash myself. I started driving November 2013.
So, how does it work from your end?
When you're driving, the first thing you do is put your mustache on your car. Then you turn on "driver mode" in the app. This allows you to receive ride requests. Then you basically park your car and wait. When someone in your area needs a ride, a ride request with the passenger's picture, rating, and location will pop up on your screen. You have 14 seconds to accept or deny the passenger. Then you pick them up, do the customary fist bump, and take them where they want to go. When the ride is over you "end" it through the app. The passenger is notified and is asked to submit payment and to rate their driver (scale of 5 stars). The app gives a suggested amount to pay, but passengers can give more or less.
What do you like about it?
My favorite part about driving for Lyft is being able to set my own hours. I can literally drive one hour a week or 40 hours a week. The networking opportunities were an unexpected perk. It's a great way to meet really cool people. I've driven news anchors, club managers, museum directors, etc.
And what would you change if you could?
I would increase the demand for rides. My favorite nights are when I have one ride request after another. I wish every shift was like that. Unfortunately some shifts are slow. I also wish we got paid a base still.
Any wacky stories you can share?
My first day driving I met a sweet guy who ended up taking me out on a few dates. It didn't end up working out, but it was a fun story. That first ride was only 1.6 miles. I guess I was pretty charming to make him want to take me out that quickly.
How much would money you say you've made with Lyft in the past two months?
I'm not the best example because I only drive about 4 hours a week. Many people drive much more than I do and make much more. In the past two months I've made an average of about $100/week or $800 for the two months.
If you wanted to make more, could you have?
Yeah, I could have definitely made more. I would just need to drive more. I would also make more if I didn't avoid the late night shifts (after 1am on weekends).
The main reason I don't drive more is because most of my time goes to running Traveling Stories, an international nonprofit I started in 2010. As you can probably imagine, I don't make a ton of money for my work with the nonprofit. Driving for Lyft helps make ends meet without monopolizing my time.
What kind of person do you think is best suited to be a Lyft driver?
People who are outgoing and comfortable engaging strangers in conversation. People who are safe drivers and either know San Diego or know how to use a GPS. People who like surprises and spontaneity. You never know what kind of passenger you'll get, or where they'll want you to take them.
Any final bits of advice (or warning) for those interested in looking into it for themselves?
Try it out first as a passenger! If you're new to Lyft, feel free to use my personal promo code EMILY2338 to get a $25 credit. For everyone who uses the code between now and the end of May, I'll donate a portion of my referral bonus to Traveling Stories.

Headed down to Sebastian for the annual spring break trip with the wife. We've scored a good swell the last 4 times we have done this trip but this year is looking pretty dismal (ugh) so here is the question. If we are stuck on a longboard riding knee high gutless junk, is there any place around Sebastian that will be more fun on these poor conditions? From my experience, the beach around Spanish House and the inlet has that deep gully so knee high waves just back off and never break. Not even good on a longboard. I have surfed Wabasso and that was super shorey so that wouldn't be it. Any suggestions are helpful or if you can generate a swell somehow that would be better.

We surfed 16th street in Cocoa Beach the last three days. Report called flat, I say it was waist high on sets. At the right tide it is almost always worth surfing.Check out our surf report on swell info Cocoa Beach.

It been a while since I've been there but I used to head north to Patricks Air Force Base or Satellite Beach for the smaller swells. Keep in mind that Cape Canaveral can block swells with a lot of north in them. If so, Sebastian is probably a better bet unless you really want to travel around. You'll probably get more current info from a few others on here though.

I will be in that neck of the woods next week as well. While it would be nice to score a nice swell, I am just hoping for at least something rideable for my daughters.

Thanks guys. Maybe a wind swell for the 2nd half of next week. We'll see! Figured I might stop by New Smyrneee on the way back north.

POLICE are not treating the deaths of a father and his daughter, whose bodies were found inside a western Sydney home, as suspicious.
A man found his sister, 43, and father, 68, dead inside their Blacktown family home on Saturday afternoon.
There were no "visible" signs of injury but police initially said the deaths were being treated suspiciously.
After forensic experts completed their examinations, police have now concluded that "at this time, there's no evidence that the deaths are suspicious", a spokeswoman said on Sunday.
The man made the discovery after travelling to the home concerned for the welfare of his family as they weren't answering his phone calls.
A report is being prepared for the coroner.
Originally published as Father, daughter deaths 'not suspicious'

Date: 1 August 2007
As always, we like to hear from our graduates about the progress of their careers, especially because such progress is crucially important to the continuing vitality of the Department of History.
In the meantime, however, you might like to know that the Department is entering a period of rapid change. Long-standing members such as Michael Mullett and Peter Harman are about to retire, and we will be seeking to replace not just them, but also more junior colleagues such as Thomas Dixon, who has just left us for Queen Mary and Westfield College. At the same, we welcome our newest colleagues Andrew Cambers, Alison Kay and John Strachan. This said, it is not only our staff that is changing, but also our teaching. Our applicants are no longer satisfied by the three-subject Part I course, wishing to study more history during their first year, so we are developing a new, double Part I course, which will take effect from October 2008. In so doing, we demonstrate once again how seriously we take our mission to teach. At the same time, we have spent the past few years strengthening our reputation for excellence in historical research, and now await with bated breath the results of the latest Research Assessment Exercise.
For more detailed information, please explore our other web pages and also visit the University's Alumni Page. What is your news?

Museum Of The Rockies Hosts Wankel T.rex Send-Off Friday
In June of last year, Museum of the Rockies announced the 50-year loan of the Wankel T.rex to the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. Originally scheduled to leave for the Smithsonian October 11, 2013, its departure was postponed due to the government shutdown.
Having reached agreement with the Smithsonian on a new departure date, MOR is pleased to announce that on Friday, April 11, 2014, from 11:30am to 1:30pm, it will host a special event as it sends the Wankel T.rex to its new home in Washington, D.C.
"This is a remarkable moment for all of Montana." said Sheldon McKamey, Executive Director of Museum of the Rockies. "The Wankel T. Rex will become the most viewed T.rex skeleton in the world, and that's something everyone in the state can be proud of."
In 2001, the Wankel T.rex was cast in bronze and placed near Museum of the Rockies' front entrance where the skeleton, nicknamed "Big Mike," became a popular photo opportunity for tourists. The bronze cast skeleton will remain at MOR.
The Museum's send-off event will include MOR's Rocky Rex mascot, a hot dog picnic and children's events. Kathy Wankel and family, dignitaries from the Smithsonian and the USACE, and many of the original excavation site field crew members will also be in attendance. The event is free and open to the public.
