5 Nets total, in one set of 2 and one set of 3.
The two Bear Crossing Net lanes are both situated north of
Crisp Pond alongside or across the narrow sluggish stream that
drains the pond (two of our Feeder Nets and three of the Strip
Mine Road Nets also are situated across this same small riparian
The Bear Crossing Nets got their name because of the
frequency with which our local black bears have used Nets 3-5 as
pathway to and from the adjacent large open field.
Because both net lanes are in permanently wet areas, little
maintenance is required to keep the associated habitats at the
shrub-scrub stage (Net 3 is in a more upland situation and
scattered trees near that net are mostly black cherry and wild
crabapple). Dominant shrubs associated with the Bear
Crossing Nets are willows and alders. Nets 3-5 are at the
edge of a large open old field that is mowed annually.

text: I had my Captivate rooted about 4 weeks ago so I could get the Sirius XM iPhone app. Since then, my phone has become less and less functional. The apps are taking up to 30 seconds to load, the phone locks up and needs to be re-started two or three times a day. About the only good thing about this phone is that it does serve as a phone (unlike the iPhone 4, which I dumped for this). I'm waiting for the iPhone 5, but in the meantime, I could use some help with this phone. People tell me that the 30 second lag time is long, even for the Captivate. I have absolutely no idea about "flashing" some ROM, or entering something into a directory after plugging my phone into my Macintosh. I'm afraid I will totally brick it. (And since it was a $500 phone, I don't need that.) If anyone is in Minneapolis/St. Paul or close, and knows how to resolve this, please contact me. email@example.com

We are not fans of Google's Gmail service. The reason is that we have deep concerns about the company's attitude to privacy and that email involves the sharing of information that can be private and confidential. Now it seems that Google is taking steps that exacerbate this risk. Any Gmail users need to be warned.
Reuters reported recently on a new feature in Google's Gmail service which will result in users potentially receiving messages from people to whom they have not given their email address. The company has announced a change which will broaden the list of contacts available on Gmail. It's apparently part of Googles attempts to integrate its Google+ social media service. Even if you aren't part of this so far, if you use Gmail you're going to get an account if you like it or not.
Whilst the new Gmail feature could be great news for stalkers, we are deeply concerned that it is yet another nail in the coffin for our rights to privacy. Google just doesn't seem to understand why privacy matters. It has allowed users to opt out of the change. But we all know that most people won't remember to do this or will not real the email notification from the company. Great news for Google – once again it can put potential profits over privacy. This is why our campaign continues.

Discussion in 'General Discussion' started by TomandAnn, Jul 26, 2015.
I guess I'm what's call a queen size now, but how big is too big? I want to try BIG
you will get used to the size no matter how big
99.99% of "too big" is the fun you can have trying to impale yourself on "too big!"
That's what my wife, Pam, just told me anyway when I asked her this question! Lol
Is that a trick question???? I'll let you know when I get to too big... hasn't happened yet
You will get use to it
Too big is real when you scream stop stop please don't break the pussy....talking from experience.
every cm or inch that doesn't fit in is a waste ;p
I myself say it can never be big enough. I would drive a hour at 2am. Just because some redneck pill poppin truck driver had a 10inch MAGNUM. this picture will show how much I like big cock . That movie in a small hunting camp made 8 guys jack off because he quit after 40m and 2 Of his friends gave me more outside while he got dressed.
10 is too big for me. it hurt too much.
My GF can accommodate about 10 inches of her toy but not for long. So maybe 9.5 is her comfortable max.
That's right...can't grind on air.
She once thought anything bigger than 8" would be too much, and now she's had a really thick 10" cock.... she wants even more now!
It all depends on the women's experience. I'm pretty sure a average size man will be enough for a virgin.
My first wife when I was in my 20's had a lover who was 11 inches and extremely thick. I couldn't believe she could take it until one new year's eve when they let me watch. She took it all and came until she practically passed out. That was the moment when I became a true believer in the power and sexual superiority of black men.
If it kills you sucking, it or fucking, is probably too big.
10 is way too big for me, a nice 9 incher is perfect.
How about 8?
8 is great as well...
10" is perfect for me. Took a while but wow!
Yes that is true
Separate names with a comma.

The Top 15 Passers in the NBA TodayAugust 30, 2011
The Top 15 Passers in the NBA Today
Today, the NBA is full of players who only know how to score. Scorers tend to receive the most recognition and love, but someone has to set these players up.
There are players all throughout the league who excel at making plays for other players. It doesn't matter the age, athletic ability or the position of the player. We have former MVP's, All-Stars, NBA Champions and role players who thrive at passing the rock.
When we think of the top passer in NBA history, we tend to think of John Stockton, Magic or even Mark Jackson, but let's not forget the big men such as Vlade Divac, Chris Webber and Shaq.
Passing is a lost art form in the NBA, but these players on the list try to keep the tradition going.
Honorable Mentions
Kyrie Irving and Ricky Rubio could very well make this list next year, but we will have to wait and see. Both rookies have the ability to make their teammates better and rack up a lot of assists.
Jeff Teague and Brandon Jennings are two intriguing prospects with some NBA experience who have the ability to be very good passing point guards in this league.
While these players will fight to make the list next year, we will now take a look at the top 15 passers in this league.
15. Derrick Rose
Last year's MVP Derrick Rose makes this list even though he is a scoring point guard. Rose focused so much on improving his jump shot last year that it helped him win the MVP.
Rose is so young and athletic that he is capable of being one of the top passers in this league. He slashes the lanes with such power and force, which allows him to set up his teammates to succeed.
Imagine when Derrick Rose enters his prime. He will be a better passer and unstoppable scorer in this league.
He has such a strong work ethic and drive that I have no doubt that he will be a better passer. This offseason, he needs to improve his passing ability and focus on getting his teammates more involved, which will take his game to a whole other level, and most likely win an NBA Championship.
14. Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bryant has been known for his killer instinct in scoring and finishing games, but also being a ball hog. He is also the closest thing we have to Michael Jordan. The seasons Kobe won championships, he decided to pass the ball.
He has a great ability to pass out of double teams and positioning his teammates into scoring position. Remember his lob pass to Shaq in the playoffs against Portland? It was a thing of perfection. Throughout Kobe's career, he has drawn so much attention on offense that he had to learn how to pass.
As Kobe exits his prime, he is going to have to rely on his teammates even more, and his passing skills will be elevated.
13. Hedo Turkoglu
When it's the fourth quarter and the game is on the line, who does Stan Van Gundy rely on to run his offense? Hedo Turkoglu.
Paired with Dwight Howard, the combo combined for numerous monster oops. When the ball is in his hands, Hedo focuses on getting his teammates involved. He was an integral part in leading the Magic to the NBA Finals a few years back with his ability to create and pass the ball.
Although Hedo has never averaged more than five assists in a season, his passing skills are far better then most point guards in this league. Look for Hedo to take on more of the point guard role for Orlando next season.
12. Pau Gasol
Gasol is the best passing big man in the league. His passing ability falls in line to Arvydas Sabonis, Chris Webber and Vlade Divac. Passing in the post is a lost art form with no other big men today possessing this skill.
When Gasol arrived in Los Angeles, he grasped the triangle offense, and his passing ability allowed the triangle to work perfectly. His court awareness with his back to the basket is what most young big men should emulate. He passes out of double teams and when teammates cut to the basket.
During this past playoff, Gasol looked lost in the offense and had no motivation to get his teammates involved. Look for Gasol to bounce back this season with his passing ability and post play.
11. Jose Calderon
A very good point guard on the offensive end, but abysmal on the defensive side. Calderon has been one of the top passers since he has entered the NBA, but he has not been recognized for his passing ability, being stuck in Toronto.
He was the catalyst to Spain winning the FIBA World Championship with his passing ability.
If Calderon was in a run and gun system such as Mike D'Antoni's offense, where offense is a premium and defense is not, then Calderon would most likely be in the top three in assists.
10. John Wall
In only one NBA season, Wall averaged 8.3 assists, which puts him in the top 10 in the league last season.
Wall is such a young player with great speed and quickness, which is comparable to Rose and Westbook, but his passing ability and court vision is so much better. As he matures, and the players around him get better, Wall will be in the top five in assists.
Many have compared Wall's ability to Derrick Rose, but Rose tends to focus more on scoring than getting his teammates involved. A true point guard finds a way to get his teammates the ball and making them better, which Wall does.
In his one season in the NBA, he elevated the games of Javale Mcgee, Andray Blatche and Nick Young. John Wall's game will continue to improve, and there is no doubt that he will be one the best passing guards for years to come.
9. Andre Iguodala
A poor mans Scottie Pippen, Andre Iguodala has been facilitating the Sixers' offense ever since Iverson was traded.
His court awareness is at a high level. If he was a point guard's size, then I truly believe he'd be a top five point guard in this league. He is a very talented, passing wing player. Andre's athleticism is off the charts. Combine that with his court vision and high basketball IQ, and both allow him to play at a high level in this league.
Recent trade rumors have Andre going to the Warriors, which would take some of the point guard responsibilities away from Stephen Curry and form a deadly backcourt. When the lockout ends, we will see who will be blessed with Andre's passing talents.
8. Dwyane Wade
Did you see that full court pass that Wade threw for an alley-oop to LeBron? Unbelievable.
He has played point guard off and on throughout his career and has a strong ability to pass with both hands.
Wade is probably the best passer while stuck in mid air. His hang time allows him to create for others. Wade is quite possibly one of the best slashers ever. When he gets into the lane, he can finish or find teammates with either hand.
Wade is such a great scorer that we tend to forget his amazing passing ability. He will go down as one of top shooting guards of all time.
7. Manu Ginobili
The shooting guard was drafting 57th overall in the 1999 draft. Players who get drafted this late aren't suppose to be this good.
Manu Ginobili is such a sneaky and unorthodox player. When watching who facilitates the offense on the Spurs throughout the years, you would notice Ginobli was running the show instead of Tony Parker.
His bounce pass is always on point, and you can see a precise behind the back pass every now or then. Ginobli does so well in getting his teammates involved. He is also one of the best players penetrating the lanes and breaking the defense down. When the defense collapses on Ginobli, his passing ability is heightened. He is one of the best in finding a teammate when slashing in the lane.
With George Hill being traded, and possibly Tony Parker, look for Ginobili to take more of the role as facilitator next season..
6. Jason Kidd
Second in assists all-time only to the great John Stockton, Jason Kidd has been known for his court awareness and passing ability. People once thought Kidd had eyes behind his head with the ridiculous passes he threw. Ten years ago, Kidd would probably be tops on this list.
Although his speed and athleticism have left him, his passing ability has not. He won his first NBA Championship as the starting point guard after 19 seasons. Kidd has revamped his game and shows no sign of hanging up the sneakers.
He is such a smart player with unparalleled court vision, which will help Dallas defend their title next season.
5. LeBron James
LeBron's court vision and passing ability is on the level of all the better point guards in the league, and he is built like a tank. Critics have wanted LeBron's game to follow that of Michael Jordan, but in reality, he is more like Magic. If LeBron wanted to, he could lead the league in assists.
His best skill is probably his court vision and passing. You can see LeBron making unbelievable passes almost every game. LeBron should rely on get his teammates involved or making them better instead of jacking up fade-away three-pointers.
If the Miami Heat want to win a championship, Lebron has to the be the facilitator on offense every play down the court.
4. Deron Williams
Deron Williams is one of the bigger and better scoring point guards in the league, and he can pass with the best of them.
He is always in the discussion with Chris Paul for the best point guard in the league, so it was a bit of a surprise when he was traded to the New Jersey Nets last season. Williams' game is ideal for a pick and roll game where his talent and vision is best for feeding a big man rolling to the basket.
Imagine Williams being paired with Dwight Howard; that would be deadly. But for now, he will have to do with the ever improving center Brook Lopez.
3. Chris Paul
Although Chris Paul doesn't have the prototypical size of a point guard, he plays the game the way a point should. The ideal point guard on offense and defense, Paul's passing skills are unbelievable. He can turn below average players into better players.
Chris Paul is probably the best point guard in the league because he can shoot, drive, play defense, and most of all, pass the ball. Paul would rather pass then ball then shoot, but if his teammates cant score then he is looked upon to score, which seems to be lot lately with his lack of decent teammates.
Paul is so good that he can lead a mediocre team into the playoffs by himself. Imagine if Chris Paul can have some weapons at his disposal.
2. Rajon Rondo
Every season, Rajon Rondo has increased his assists average, and his court vision seems to be getting better. His lob passes are perfectly tossed next to the rim. The arrival of Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen has elevated Rondo's passing game and covered up his flaw of shooting.
If Rondo could ever make a jump shot, then his passing can be taken to another level. Teams tend to play off of Rondo because of his quickness and lack of shooting, but this allows him to excel in finding his teammates. The past few seasons, Rondo's passing ability has helped the aging Garnett, Pierce and Allen continue to play at a high level.
Look for Rondo to be the main guy on the team as his teammates are another year older.
1. Steve Nash
The two-time MVP is hands down the best passer in the league. Even at the tender age of 37, Nash led the league in assist.
He is the ideal passer, with great court vision, and he is always keeping his dribble until the last possible second. He has a career 8.5 average in assists, which should be higher, but Nash took a while to develop and figure out his game.
He is still the top passer in this league, and hopefully his ability wont be wasted without winning a championship. Look for Nash to continue having high assists totals for a few more seasons.

Unanswered: delete query ?
My problem is to delete data from a table test
that has not related data in the table test2
test :
X a
Y b
Z b
K a
K a
test2 :
I want to delete from table test the two rows with key=K
The SQLServer query for the above is
DELETE FROM test FROM test LEFT JOIN test2 ON test2.sno=test.sno WHERE test2.sno IS NULL
Please give the Oracle equivalent for the above SQL Server query, which should have the Theta LEFT JOIN conditions in Oracle statement for the SQL Server's 'LEFT JOIN' clause. I am specific to this point, since the above in Oracle can also be done with a subquery statement, but my requirement is that I need with a JOIN euqivalent of the SQL Server.

I think this is not going to be a spoon feeding for me, as I have tried a lot for this in 'DELETE' statement to get the same output as in SQL server. As I have said earlier, I need this particularly with JOIN conditions which lead to difficulty to find the same.

You act as if you have read the documentation but still don't understand it.
here are a few ways of doing this:
PHP Code:
delete from test where sno not in (select sno from test2);
delete from test a
where not exists (select null from test2 b where a.sno = b.sno);

you can lead someone to something but they will never learn anything ...

Performing "Static World View"
Spring Heeled Jack
Lenny Lashley's Gang of One, The Hempsteadys, Choke Puppy (Reunion)
The Ballroom at The Outer Space
295 Treadwell Street
Building G
Hamden, CT, 06514
This event is 21 and over
Spring Heeled Jack
Spring Heeled Jack has long been one of the most beloved exports of the New Haven area music scene. Their dynamic combination of Punk, Pop, and Ska made them one of the most successful east coast bands of the 90's ska revival, resulting in Static World View becoming one of the best selling albums ever, on Moon Ska. After a long hiatus, and a handful of one off reunion shows.. the band is back! And… they have a special treat for their most hardcore fans. The Band will be playing two very intimate shows at the Spaceland Ballroom in Hamden to play all your favorites, as well as debut a handful of new tracks they're working on for upcoming releases. The band hasn't played a room this small in CT in nearly 15 years, so don't miss out on your chance to be a part of these very special evenings.
Lenny Lashley's Gang of One
LENNY LASHELY'S GANG OF ONE is the latest project from the former Darkbuster front man/current Street Dogs guitarist. A longtime fixture in the Boston punk scene, Lenny has been playing and touring with his original music for over 16 years. The debut LP released early this year on Panic State records sold out in 2 days, and featured members of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones, and the Bouncing Souls. Highly recommended for fans of Dropkick Murphys/Gaslight Anthem Style punk rock.
It is not everyday that a band releases a concept album as their debut full length, but The Hempsteadys are anything but conventional. The 11-piece from New London, Connecticut melds the traditional sounds of late '60s Jamaica, Motown and early British punk with the modern soul of Daptone Records and reggae rhythms of contemporaries such as The Aggrolites and The Slackers.
El Amor De Los Muertos is a rock(steady) opera about forbidden love with classic movie monsters as the cast of characters. Think of The Specials' "Ghost Town" with the subject being more literal-than-symbolic and the music having a similar sound. This album has been four years in the making, as hinted at in the title of the song "Teen Wolf 2012," which was the first song written for it. In those four years, the band has honed its incredible live set around the northeast.
Choke Puppy (Reunion)
Choke Puppy was a CT/Boston based Punk/Ska/Hardcore hybrid featuring future members of CT's own Bloodshot Hooligans, and was a dominant force in the Northeast scene in the mid 90's, including performances on the 1998 Warped Tour, and an album on Elevator Music.

Discussion in 'Disney Cruise Line Trip Reports' started by ckb_nc, Jan 3, 2006.
Posted here
I enjoyed reading your report. we were on the same cruise as you.
We had agreat time too. Sorry you had some illness on your vacation.
We were well but ha done big shock. Did you see th eyoung lady witht he pink hair????? She was our daughter. Now we all laugh about it,b ut it was a shocker for me when I picked them up at the airport. Her dye had a bad chemical reaction to her shampoo and her highlights turned bright pink about 4 hours before she was to leave at 3 a.m. for the airport. She made for some interesting memories and picutres for us.

ckb - I was on the same cruise as you. Thanks for posting your report - I am working on mine still.
I asked about "Bright Star" and the CM told me (reluctantly) that it was a medical emergency after I specifically asked that (it was like playing 20 questions).
About the "Bright Star..." My cousin's husband was on the elevator with his hands full of food. A gentleman on the elevator with him started looking pale. He fainted. The call was for assistance to help the man.
BTW, I remember the pink hair. I saw her everywhere. My sons thought it was pretty.
nzdisneymom, I watched your whole picture show. It was awesome. I felt like I was there again. I even saw myself in one of the picutres at the turtle farm. We had a blast on that excursion.
mom/grandma: any way you can post a picture.?! (or you can post under picture of the day)
I do have a few pictures, but I don't know how to post it.
My 23 year old son will be around either tomarrow or the next day and I will ask him for help to do it. Like most young people he does that kind of stuff all the time.
mom x4,grandma x4
Thanks for letting me know what happened about it. I know the kids were a little freaked about it but I told them if it was something we needed to do, we'd have heard the other sound that they told us about the first day at the Life Boat Drill.
Thanks for looking at the pictures - we had such a great time - I look at the pictures several times a day

Tip Lewis and His Lamp
Tip Lewis and His Lamp by Pansy.
Tip was a disobedient boy in school, but when he heard spiritual truth, it caught in his mind. Tip became a Christian but was faced with an onslaught of testing immediately. Tip learned the Bible and how it was a lamp for his life. He realized that he had a great work to do helping people to become Christians. Soon God worked in family and friends to bring them to Himself and change their lives. Tip went away from his home to work for a merchant where he learned about business and character. An important verse is Psalm 119:105—"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path."

Change of
Price Delayed
Integration Innovation
You've got to hand it to our Federal Government and John Ashcroft's Department of (In)Justice. Justice is rumored to be blind. In at least one case, she surely is. Alas, her alleged visual handicap is intended to offer the opportunity to prove one's innocence. It is not meant to offer only a blind eye toward the most transparent and illegal of behaviors.
I still can't get over Bill Gates and his seemingly innocent proclamation that Microsoft should enjoy and would defend its freedom to innovate. I for one have never managed to qualify anything that company does as innovative. A few other adjectives come to mind, but that isn't one of them.
Well, I admit it, I was wrong. They are innovative.
Microsoft is second to none when it comes to finding new and innovative ways to extend their desktop monopoly in every direction they can. Frankly I don't see anything standing in their way either. After all, for all intents and purposes, Netscape is now part of history. There's one reason and one reason only for that, and we all know what it is. If that wasn't enough for the good old DoJ to carry out its duty, nothing will.
Where are they headed now? First we have to take stock of where they are. Of course, they continue to retain the dubious honor of churning out the most innovative security problems you can shake a stick of RAM at. That Microsoft is lord of all it surveys in the realm of desktop computing is equally obvious. Lest we forget though, the evil empire is applying Herculean efforts to take over a number of other business segments. Nothing is safe from their assault. Cellular telephony, gaming console markets, lending, news, and entertainment are all areas that Microsoft hopes to infiltrate.
That last one bears closer examination.
When you get right down to it, there are currently three dominant forms of desktop media services. There is Real, Apple's QuickTime, and Microsoft's Media Player. All three are jockeying to be the dominant force in the industry. Of course, Microsoft has quite an advantage in that they include their Media Player software with their operating systems. Not to put too fine a point on it, but it seems to me that the lesson learned by Netscape could easily be relearned by both Real and Apple. In fact they are perfectly positioned, and are being very innovative in their exploitation of the situation. Microsoft's propensity for exerting monopoly leverage is coming to play again, and this time there is a perfect niche to fill.
All of the big media houses are running scared right now. They would be thrilled if they could levy some charge against anyone and everyone who tried to view or listen to their copyrighted work, and they'd really like it if they could exact those fees every time we viewed or listened to some digitized work.
That's where Microsoft comes in.
Bill would love to find a way to monopolize entertainment and it seems he's found one. By incorporating Digital Rights Management technology into Windows he is able to offer exactly what the MPAA and RIAA are looking for. Not surprisingly, the concerns of his consumers are of little matter. After all, its their money he's interested in, nothing more. It seems he's about to cash in big time. The entertainment industry has pushed for ways to gain control over how, when, and where you can view their work, regardless of what you might have paid for the privilege. They've even gone so far as to push for legislation that would prevent you from doing something as simple as recording a broadcast television show, unless they approved. As for those vile TiVo boxes people use to sip past commercials, well, they'd put an end to that too. That's where Microsoft comes in. They can offer a solution that can be fully controlled, unrecordable, unshakable, and ultimately just what the moguls ordered.
Yeah, there's no doubt in my mind that Justice is blind. Judging by the indifference to the cries of outrage elicited by those who have been victimized by Microsoft, I'm thinking she's deaf too.
At least we're talking about Microsoft here. More likely than not, whatever security they come up with to guard their new monopoly will be hacked in short order, just like almost every other product they've ever shipped.

text: After experiencing the Wii resetting itself while trying to load Wii Sports Resort i began to research this error and after testing various methods i found this to work perfectly. Firstly i was testing a Wii that i had just performed the 4.2 Safe Firmware Updater on and using NeoGamma R8 beta loader. I installed IOS55-64-v4633 but this did not work although it might have contributed further down the line I'm not sure. I then downloaded the alternative RTZP01.dol (searched Google for "megaupload rztp.dol" for Wii Sports resort and placed it on an SD card in the folder NeoGamma Inserted the game disc and selected Neogamma, at the options screen i then chose -> Config options -> Alter. .dol and selected SD Returned to main menu and selected Launch game on dvd. Then the game will play the 3min video of how to use the motion controller. When finished playing the Wii will reset itself. DON'T WORRY! Now load game through NeoGamma as normal and all should work fine. The only other thing i did whether or not it makes a difference i am not sure but i copied an existing game save of Wii Sports Resort from another machine onto the one i was testing. Steve.

On this day in 1667, John Milton sold the copyright to Paradise Lost for a 10 pounds. Once published, the poem was immediately hailed as a masterpiece of the English language.
"Of Man's first disobedience, and the fruit
Of that forbidden tree whose mortal taste
Brought death into the world, and all our woe,
With loss of Eden, till one greater Man
Restore us, and regain the blissful Seat"
--from PARADISE LOST
Of that forbidden tree whose mortal taste
Brought death into the world, and all our woe,
With loss of Eden, till one greater Man
Restore us, and regain the blissful Seat"
--from PARADISE LOST
His best late works include a series of large watercolours illustrating Milton's poems L'allegro and Il Penseroso

CONCERT SERIES 2008 Concert No. 16
Essex Baroque Orchestra ; Psalmody dir. Peter Holman
6.00pm, Sunday 7 December, 2008
Tickets: £18, £12, £8
As part of the celebrations of the 400th anniversary of John Milton's birth, spearheaded by Christ's College, and in partnership with the Suffolk Villages Festival, we are delighted to present this performance of a Handel masterpiece, sometimes known as "Merriment, Melancholy and Moderation". Milton's "L'Allegro" and "Il Penseroso" provide the text of the first two sections of this secular oratorio, while Handel's regular librettist Charles Jennens completed the set with "Il Moderato". Extolling the pleasures of the English countryside, this rarely-performed work contains some of Handel's most beautiful and memorable music.
There will be a pre-concert talk by Dr Jessica Martin, Fellow of Trinity College Cambridge, at 5.00pm in Trinity College Chapel. Admission to the talk is free.
John Milton, poet and creator of Paradise Lost, was born #onthisday in 1608. #DiscoverLiterature to find out more about this epic poem.http://bit.ly/1yvvP6N

About a year back, I was undergoing this thing called 'wedding jitters'. I, never in my wildest dreams thought that I could be a culprit of this anxiety! As confident as I was when I had agreed to get married to a very dear friend of mine, I assumed that things would be just perfect! But trust me, everything is the opposite! I wish I knew then what I'm writing down today!
Happily ever after…
Here's what marriage really is! This article is dedicated to all my near & dear friends and readers who are all in line to undergo this experience: 'marriage'! Yes, I know most of us imagine this! And why not, similar interests, values and ideas, most of the couples in love feel that the two of them are an invincible team! Reality Bite: Despite our optimism we hit the ground and find ourselves struggling with this same 'perfect' partner. But that doesn't mean that something is wrong… It just means that marriage has got lots in store for us to learn! Yes! It is absolutely 'normal' to fight on your honeymoon as well!
The much talked about sex
Most of us are under the notion, 'sex just gets boring after a while'! Well, what about the couples who enjoy sex all life long?! Reality bite: The more the comfort and friendship in your relationship, the more the urge! In fact, amongst married couples who are completely new to each other, initial proximity is always awkward… and its normal! The extra 'oomphh' comes only when you find creative ways to bring it!
It will all be equal
I know most of us before getting into marriage practically PLEDGE: It'll all be 50-50. Well, is life that fair to you? No right! So isn't marriage! After all, who wants someone to keep a track of his/her good and bad deeds all the time?! How would you react if your friends and parents did the same?! Who picked up from the dry cleaners last time? Who left the washroom lights on last night?! Does this really matter?! Reality Bite: If you keep the other person's concern in mind and offer support (selflessly at times!) trust me you'll get back the same! The happiest couples (or I should say smarter) pay less or no heed to what they get back and give complete attention to what they give in! At the end of the day, doing things together make them happy!
How could you do this…
Face it guys you married a human! We are bound to make mistakes in whatever we do, so why not mistakes in marriage?! Your partner will miscommunicate, overlook, misunderstand and be judgemental… and do a whole lotta stuff that'll make your blood boil!
Reality Bite: You must learn to forgive and forget and apologise! Rather than expecting your partner or yourself to have a zero mistake track record, you must find a way to reconnect after any disappointment or unexpected incident.
Make peace with your differences
Expecting differences to disappear?! That simply cant happen! No two people can think or be alike! Don't you already know that?! So if you'll be the marriage piler and keep a track of all those things that you don't accept simply because they're not you… it'll never work out fine! Reality Bite: Differences can be enjoyable. Try to move out of your comfort zone and try something new! Are we that finicky with friends? No right?! Then why not be more flexible and tolerant with the one you shall spend your life with?!And last but definitely not the least.. the final reality bite which is also a major problem!
The problem lies within you and not in the marriage
Of course I don't mean start blaming yourself for everything! But yes, in a marriage it is pretty easy to get bothered about frivolous stuff! Such as, oh why didn't she smile at me today, why is he staring into space… is he not interested now? Oh.. she forgot to remind me to call my mom.. why?! Yeahh.. now you see how ridiculous all of this sounds?!Reality bite: A lot of our insecurities, and assumptions come from our past experiences. Always introspect and 'understand' the one you're living with and plan to have babies with! It might not be just what meets the eye!Not everything your partner does is about you, though it can sometimes seem that way. A good rule of thumb: the bigger and more intense your emotional reaction, the more likely your reaction is about your stuff from the past. The stuff you carried with you from childhood. The stuff that only you can resolve.

text: We've upgraded to 9.0 from 6.0 and I have to say it's a lot more powerful now for creating irrigation and landscape designs. The past two weeks I've been getting used to it and going through the tutorials comparing how things are now done versus the older program. There has been a learning curve but fortunately a lot of things are the same. The main problem with the program is its Material Takeoff command. It generates 99% correctly but the one area it's lacking in is in the area of fittings especially tees, crosses and reducer bushings when the pipe changes sizes. Guess I'd rather do a manual fittings pickoff which is only about 3% of the whole design process. I still can manually do a fittings pickoff quite rapidly. I especially love the Tied Assemblies area where I can tie sprinkler bodies to our type of swing joints, valves to our SCH 80 TOE nipples and MP-Rotators to the Toro 570Z PRX-4P bodies we use with them. It ties them together and them breaks them out in the Material Takeoff showing all the parts and corresponding prices. I've attached a PDF of one of my practice designs. Although it states a 1/10 scale it was meant to be printed out on our large format 18" x 24" or 24" x 36" printer at work. I've kept it on an 8-1/2" x 11" sheet just for practice at home.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Starting a Lawn Care Business' started by calvinslawnservices, Sep 9, 2010.
When your a business, and you do something illegal, its a liability.
This is false. Civil Matters and Criminal Matters are two completely different courts.
I don't have the copy of the law handy, but this is from a respected attorney.
www.davisbucco.com/docs/LANDSCAPER'S RIGHTS ARTICLE.pdf
I have read the lawn, and know for a fact that it has to be a permanent structure. Oddly enough, Plants, Edging, and Mulch are permanent structures, but maintenance on landscaping or lawns is not. I really, really, wish it was!
Agreed.... Been there and its not worth the aggrevation or costs incurred. I went through that process, certified letters etc, took off a day, went to court, and have a lein on a guy over about $1000 from back in '04... still havent seen a dime. If they owe you money and wont pay, Im sure there are plenty others they owe, and if you do get judgement on them, and they only owe you 75$, you will have to get in a long line..... ive been in one for 6 years, lol,....
If you are new to the business, this will happen every so often. its just the nature of being self employed, Ive always found that just bugging the living hell out of them seems to work... heck, i just got a final payment for doing snow removal back in february, but if it were for 75$ the phone calls probably wouldnt have been worth the time

I think your respected attorney is wrong, our company attorney typed up the first lien we ever filed for failure to pay for land surveying and civil engineering services. Maybe its different in your parts, but here you can file a lien.
Posted via Mobile Device
Here it says materials or labor
Posted via Mobile Device
"It says materials and labor which has improved the property in some way. This is a retype by someone who is not an attorney. The actual law says "materials and labor which has improved the value of the property"
Just because you have a custom form does not mean you can use it where it does not apply. Landscaping yes, Maintenance no.
From a legal prospective, I am 100% right.
mechanic's lien n. the right of a craftsman, laborer, supplier, architect or other person who has worked upon improvements or delivered materials to a particular parcel of real estate (either as an employee of the owner or as a sub-contractor to a general contractor) to place a lien on that real property for the value of the services and/or materials if not paid. Numerous other technical laws surround mechanic's liens, including requirements of prompt written notice to the owner of the property and the amount still owed (even before the general contractor has been tardy in making payment), limits on the amount collectable in some states, and various time limitations to enforce the lien. Ultimate, last resort enforcement of the mechanic's lien is accomplished by filing a lawsuit to foreclose the lien and have the property sold in order to be paid. Property owners should make sure that their general contractors pay their employees or sub-contractors to avoid a mechanic's lien, since the owner could be forced to pay the debts of a general contractor even though the owner has already paid the contractor. If the worker or supplier does not sue to enforce the mechanic's lien, he/she may still sue for the debt. (See: lien)
Heres the legal definition that would be in front of a Judge when he makes his ruling after you get sued for mental anguish for filing a false lien. Its not the law, he can look up more, but probably wouldn't. none of the technical details apply once he sees the word "improvements"
Its not a custom form, it was typed up and provided to us in completion by our company attorney. I'd be glad to provide you with his name and number so you can tell him that the 8 years of school he attended they failed to teach him the law. I'm not trying to argue with you, but around here a lien can be placed on property for a service that is unpaid. I have taken 3 to the courthouse in the last 2 years and we had them filed, one paid and the others filed bankruptcy.

The Tampa Bay Lightning elected Wednesday to buy out the final season on goaltender Marc Denis' three-year, $8.6-million US contract.
Denis, 30, was slated to earn $3 million US next season.
"Needless to say, we're all sorry things did not work out differently for Marc with our organization," Lightning general manager Jay Feaster said.
Denis went 1-5 with a 4.05 goals-against average in 10 games for the Lightning last season, spending the bulk of it with the AHL's Norfolk Admirals.
Denis began the season in Tampa Bay, but he was demoted last Dec. 29 and played 28 games for the Admirals before being recalled by the Lightning on March 26.
Denis is 112-179-3 with 28 ties, a 3.02 GAA and 16 shutouts in 348 games over 10 NHL seasons for the Colorado Avalanche, Columbus Blue Jackets and Lightning.
The Montreal native was drafted 25th overall by Colorado in 1995.
Tampa Bay acquired him from Columbus for Fredrik Modin and Fredrik Norrena on June 30, 2006.

Today, innovation is seen by business leaders and the media as the key to growth and success - a burning issue in every company, from startups to the Fortune 500. In this space, Fahrenheit 212 (dubbed "The Epicenter of Innovation" by Esquire) is viewed as a high-performance innovation SWAT team, able to solve the most complex, mission-critical challenges. In its first 10 years of life, under Mark Payne, Cofounder, President, and Head of Idea Development, Fahrenheit 212 has worked with such giants of industry as Coca-Cola, Samsung, Hershey's, Starbucks, Mattel, Citibank, P&G, American Express, GE, and Goldman Sachs. It has been praised as a hotspot for innovation in publications like Fortune, Esquire, Businessweek, and FastCompany. What Drives Fahrenheit 212's success is its unique methodology; combining what it calls Magic - the creative side of innovation - with Money, the business side. They explore every potential idea with the end goal of bringing an innovative product to market in a way that will transform a company's business and growth. In How to Kill a Unicorn, Payne pulls back the curtain on how the company is able to bring more innovative products and ideas successfully to market than any other firm, and offers inside accounts of how they solved their biggest challenges. Embedded in their approach to new ideas are hard-earned lessons about what separates innovations that work from those that don't. The lessons in How to Kill a Unicorn are designed to help any innovator turn ambition, sweat, and the alchemy of human imagination into real products that change people's lives. From the Fortune 500 C-suite exec, to the startup entrepreneur, to the next-door neighbor tinkering in his garage, this book defines new ways to drive innovation throughout any business, company, or culture.
