Summer Local Business and Development Update
In late Spring, I blogged an update on the progress of several important commercial properties throughout the City. I thought this may be a good time to revisit the progress being made and to take a look at the overall commercial real estate market here in Melrose.
Without a doubt, the residential and commercial real estate markets have never been more active than they are at this moment. A sentiment shared by Jason Madden of Pondfield Commercial Group: "The commercial market in Melrose is strong, with demand far exceeding the supply. We wish Main Street Melrose had another full block of retail buildings because we speak to business owners who want to open in Melrose, but there is no inventory available for them to occupy," he said.
In addition, Melrose also has been able to maintain a very competitive commercial tax rate compared to many of the surrounding communities as shown in this 2015 graphic with local commercial tax rates.
The property I am asked most about is 530 Main Street, the old Moynihan Building that housed Breads and Bits of Ireland. The building recently changed hands and was purchased by John Wise of Wise Construction in Winchester. Wise Construction is responsible for the project at 99 Essex Street, which transformed the former Universalist Church building into a 15 unit residential building in an architecturally sensitive way. That project has been very well received and has helped to spur resurgence along the Essex Street corridor. We are extremely excited with the plans being developed for this landmark property on Main Street that will soon be made available to the public.
Mr. Wise added, "We are thrilled to be investing in Melrose and to be a part of the future of Main Street. We are currently in the initial design phase of the project and are expecting to submit our plans for review within the next 60 days. We have had significant interest in our retail space and look forward to bringing in new, exciting tenants to Main Street. Melrose is a thriving community and we are impressed by the quality of interest in this project from both the local community and the Greater Boston area."
Also on Main Street, The S.D.M. Foundation will occupy the spot previously occupied by Boston Candle Company at 465 Main Street. The S.D.M. Foundation is a non-profit tutoring center created to help residents develop computer and technology skills through classes and programming.
We are also very excited about the opening of T'ahpas 529, located at 529 Franklin Street. Local businessman Lorenzo Tenreiro plans to open his third food establishment in Melrose, and this latest endeavor is his most ambitious yet: a Spanish Mediterranean Restaurant with fine dining for 77 patrons and a full bar. This great new addition is scheduled for opening this October.
Ice Cream will soon return to West Wyoming Ave, as a new establishment, Cloud 9, will replace the old Heavenly Licks at 40 West Wyoming Ave. This re-opening along with the recent approval of a new multifamily residential building to replace the dilapidated building at 10 Corey Street will pave the way for the revitalization of this important connection between downtown Melrose and the Wyoming Business District.
Further down the road, the Washington Street corridor has seen the opening of Little Sprouts Daycare in the location of the old registry building and the opening of Fitzgerald Physical Therapy Associates taking over the ground floor commercial space that anchors the new multifamily residential building at 2 Washington Street.
This past week, final approval was given by the Planning Board for the City to proceed with the demolition of 1 Kimball Court. By purchasing this abandoned property, we will be able to add 23 additional parking spaces in Dills Parking Lot (behind Shaw's). This will add a significant amount of parking to our downtown area that will give an immediate boost to local businesses and their patrons.
Finally, there is the Caruso Building at 681 Main Street. As previously reported, after several years of vacancy and family litigation, there is a pending sale of the building between the family. At the moment, the potential owner is working with the State to remediate any areas that have been identified by the Department of Environmental Protection from decades past. We are hopeful that we will see resolution soon and a proposal for development at this historic location.
With the downtown Summer Stroll taking place this Friday night, I thought this was an appropriate time to focus on some positive local business development. While it is always important to keep a focus on our local businesses, the vacation-heavy times of July and August are especially trying for many small businesses. It is up to all of us collectively to support our neighbors in the community by spending time and money in these great stores throughout our business districts.
Affairs to Remember Offers Free Class on Friday Before the Summer Stroll
It all starts outside our front door! Affairs to Remember is looking forward to seeing old friends and making new acquaintances during this annual event. We are hosting a fun new class from 5-6 on Friday just before the stroll begins, so you don't have to miss a minute of the festivities. It's a fun class where you come to the shop and make a tabletop garden. With your registration we will have some fun "mocktails" and some yummy treats. Call the shop for more information and to pre-register. (781) 665-7477. Space is limited so register early.
From the Chamber of Commerce: "Come to downtown Melrose to enjoy this growing tradition! Main Street will be closed to vehicles between Upham and Grove Streets creating a pedestrian walkway where you can stroll, sip, dine and shop! Restaurants and retailers will extend their footprint onto the sidewalks for patrons to eat, shop, and linger. Specials, tastings, demos and live music make this a not to miss event! The Stroll also opens up the City of Melrose Four Corner's Music Festival. Come to Main Street and patronize your favorite restaurants and merchants!"
July 29, 2016 @ 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm
WHERE: Main Street, Melrose MA
This free event is just one more way to take part in a community activity that builds connections and strengthens communities.

Check Out the Performers for the Summer Stroll!
Here are profiles of some of the talented performers who will take part in the Downtown Summer Stroll on Friday night. Both the Summer Stroll and the Four Corners Music Festival are great opportunities to enjoy all our wonderful City has to offer, and I highly encourage everyone to make it a weekend of music and get to both events!
Let's take a look at the fantastic entertainment lineup for the 4th Annual Downtown Summer Stroll, which will take place this Friday, July 29, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. in downtown Melrose. This event drew well over 1,500 residents to downtown Melrose last summer to eat, shop, and listen to some great music outdoors.
Giovanni Moltoni Trio
The Giovanni Moltoni Trio will return this year by popular demand to the Summer Stroll. They feature Giovanni Moltoni on guitar, Daniel Assis on Bass, and Mark Walker on Drums.
Their music style can be best described this way: "Italian guitarist and Berklee Professor, Giovanni Moltoni and his crew ride a slow-burning, spooky groove, layering much texture and nuance along the way. Moltoni's harmonically open guitar/synth arpeggios seem to ask their own questions, creating a stimulating, modern approach to jazz."

Waiting For Neil

This year's event is being held exclusively at the West Knoll Soccer Field (across from Melrose Middle/High School).

- A kick-off performance by Grammy-nominated children's performer Alastair Moock and Friends to start the event at 2pm

Alastair Moock & Friends
Alastair Moock has worked with students from several of the Melrose elementary schools to create and perform new School Songs which will be featured at this year's Melrose Four Corners Music Festival! Alastair is a 2013 Grammy Nominee, two-time Parents' Choice Gold Medal Winner, recipient of the ASCAP Joe Raposo Children's Music Award, and has twice been voted by the Fids & Kamily Industry Critics' Poll among the Top 3 Albums of the Year. Long one of Boston's premier folk artists, Alastair turned his attention to family music after the birth of his twin daughters in 2006. The New York Times calls him "a Tom Waits for kids" and The Boston Globe declares that, "in the footsteps of Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie, Alastair Moock makes real kids music that parents can actually enjoy." Moock and Friends' live shows are rowdy, rootsy, singin' and dancin' fun for the whole family!
Web links: www.moockmusic.com
Melrose Connection: Alastair and his family have been Melrose residents since 2014, and are Lincoln School parent of two.
Tad Overbaugh & the Late Arrivals
Tad Overbaugh & the Late Arrivals are a 5-piece, rock 'n' roll band from Boston, MA. Mixing rock and classic country influences, Tad Overbaugh's songs fall somewhere between the twang of Steve Earle and the chimey, hook-filled songwriting of Tom Petty. The band is made up of veteran musicians from the Boston, Seattle and Los Angeles music scenes. The collective band members have shared stages with The Drive-By Truckers, Son Volt, The Bottle Rockets, Cracker, Slobberbone, Robbie Fulks, Tim Easton, and Will Hoge. Tad Overbaugh's latest album, "Beauty & Barbed Wire", was released in 2015.
Web links: www.TadOverbaugh.com
Melrose Connection: Drummer, Rick Cranford, originally from Holden, MA, moved his music career from Seattle to Melrose in 2011 and now has children at the Hoover Elementary and Franklin ECC.
The BridgeBuilders
The Bridgebuilders are part of a new wave of folk-inspired musicians putting their own stamp on traditional styles. Transcending the boundaries of traditional folk music, the Bridgebuilders began working out their trademark sound, the energetic and musical interaction between six players with years of experience playing together, lending to tunes that are both danceable and listenable. Before too long, the Bridgebuilders incorporated influences from bluegrass, jazz, roots blues, and 20th century classical music, exciting crowds up and down the East Coast from Maryland to Maine and causing the outbreak of an embarrassing number of dance parties.
Web link: https://thebridgebuilders.bandcamp.com
Melrose Connection: Fiddler, Jeremy Van Cleave has lived in Melrose since '98. He grew up playing in the Melrose Public School string department, now teaches lessons out of his Stoneham music studio, and for nearly ten years has been a morning barista at the local Bohemian Coffeehouse.
Cold Car
An emerging band born from the Boston open mic scene, and growing up fast. Led by Ken Carter and Tim Ko., Cold Car is a roots rock group found swaying on a wave of influences such as Springsteen, Petty, Young, Wilco, and The Felice Brothers. Steady rock, hook-in-mouth melodies, with heart and mind lyrics that shoot arrows at realism.
Web link: https://www.facebook.com/coldcarmusic/
Melrose Connection: Lead guitarist, Tim Ko.(short for Kochanski), brought his family to Melrose in 2011 and is a Lincoln School parent of three.

TORONTO — Fiona Reid was just three years old and thousands of kilometres from her British birthplace when she caught her first live glimpse of the Queen.
Reid was born in Kent in southeast England, but as the daughter of a British military doctor, she relocated frequently with her family before eventually settling in Canada at the age of 12.
One of the countries she temporarily called home was Nigeria. It was there in 1956 that Reid stood atop an overturned water tank, waving a paper Union Jack while watching the Queen in her motorcade in the northwestern city of Kaduna.
"That was a bit magical," Reid recalled.
Her memories of the longest-serving British monarch are particularly poignant for the veteran actress as she portrays the Queen onstage in "The Audience." Following sold-out engagements in London and on Broadway, the latest adaptation of the theatrical smash now holds court at the Royal Alexandra Theatre in Toronto.
"The Audience" is the brainchild of Peter Morgan, who wrote the play between two other acclaimed projects centred on the inner workings of the current monarchy: Oscar-winning film "The Queen" and Netflix series "The Crown," which recently won the Golden Globe for best TV drama.
The play charts the Queen's evolution as she meets in her private chambers at Buckingham Palace with a succession of British prime ministers during her six-decade reign, including Winston Churchill, Margaret Thatcher and David Cameron.
"He has humanized what essentially is an institution that is not meant to be humanized," Reid said of Morgan. "It's a symbolic, traditional edifice, if you will, the monarchy, and yet we're very curious about it.
"It's intriguing to look at how the monarchy has changed over the years, (and) how with the change, in how the media works, that the monarchy has had to humanize themselves a little bit more.
"Sometimes they've got it really, supremely wrong, as in 1997, the year of Diana's death, about which 'The Queen' the movie spoke so eloquently. But the trick has been how much to reveal and how much not to reveal."
In her portrayal of one of the world's most documented women, Reid had a wealth of material to draw upon, which proved as beneficial as it was daunting.
"In a way, it's a gift to have all that footage of her — but everyone else has seen that footage, too, so therein lies the challenge. And of course, these iterations of her by other remarkable actresses," said Reid, who joins the star-studded company of Helen Mirren, Kristin Scott Thomas, Emma Thompson and Claire Foy in taking on the fictionalized role of the monarch.
"It's been really challenging, I won't kid you. Because you can't just imitate somebody. That'll work for a comedy sketch for two minutes, but it doesn't sustain an evening of theatre."
Reid said one of the character traits she found intriguing about the monarch is her discretion, particularly when it comes to not disclosing her political preferences.
"Though the Queen has to be invisible in the most visible job in the world, as she says, she also doesn't suffer fools, she's very pragmatic, she has a wonderful sense of humour. So in a sense, you've got that sort of tension between not being able to reveal, and 'When can I reveal?'
"I'm someone who you never have to say: 'What does Fiona feel about anything?' Ever. Playing someone who is inherently tactful, patient, gracious — my husband would tell you those qualities are seriously challenging for me," she added, with a laugh.
"The Audience" runs at the Royal Alexandra Theatre until Feb. 26.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is very of the moment. Researchers are investing a lot of time and effort into predicting how huge the impact of more self-aware systems will be on work, society and even humanity's future.
Quite rightly as there is genuine innovation going on, and some companies are doing real things with AI even now, including VoiceSage, however I still think there are some important practical implications to bear in mind.
Let's start with a recent BBC Online story on fully featured AI 'Are killer bots about to do away with smartphone apps?'. The claim is that the 150 billion apps humanity has downloaded could be soon superceded by intelligent agents, "the natural successors to apps", with digital assistants coming on-stream to help, for example, the small business person.
This seems very plausible: "For companies or brands that want meaningful interaction with customers, a conversation mediated by a bot could work well… there are times when an app falls short and a conversation handled by a bot may be better."
A related report from the BBC also throws up similar claims, and shows how RBS, NatWest and other banks are starting to employ "virtual staff" – as in, virtual chatbots: "Web-based Luvo will be able to answer simple queries such as how to order a replacement card… Designed using IBM Watson technology, the virtual agent is able to understand and learn from human interactions [and] in the future may be able to understand if a customer was feeling frustrated or unhappy and change its tone and actions accordingly, IBM said."
The chatbot is being framed by NatWest as "complementary" to existing customer service agents, telling the BBC that it "frees advisers from spending time on simple, easily-addressed queries so they can help customers with more complex issues".
Omnichannel is never going to be one thing; it's breadth that will win
I can understand the appeal – as another vendor of these systems (IPSoft, which is putting a similar system into Scandinavian banks), points out, "Virtual agents never deviate from regulations, and provide a full audit trail of every interaction." Indeed, recent attendees of one of our current roadshow of VoiceSage customer Round Tables specifically said how interested they were in an AI-powered option.
The reality is that a chatbot is a great tool. But however useful, the lesson in the proactive customer contact business is that no single tool, no matter how good, is enough. You need multiple ones, a complete spread. For example, you can't just rely on mobile as your sole channel despite its enviable reach and low cost per contact; that's because while there are 81 million of them active in the UK, a significant tranche of the population still prefer fixed line calls.
AI is a great element to add into the omnichannel mix. It has great potential, as serious thinkers and planners tell us. But it's never going to replace other complex omnichannel approaches that cover as many bases as possible in order to maximise your brand's chance of being heard. After all, every generation likes to communicate in a different way.
Whatever you choose, best of luck investigating great proactive contact technology of whatever stripe.

Deconstructed Sketch 191
Hello Friends!
Welcome back for another week at The Deconstructed Sketch challenge :)
This week is #191 and I decided to let the embellishment do all the work. Actually, I've been meaning to use these gorgeous flowers from Prima for quite some time now and they were just too big to be the accent to an image.
So I paired this flower with a sentiment from SU, papers from Doodlebug and a bit of hand stitching.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!

Guess Who Nancy Pelosi Works For
Jun 27, 2008
Congressman Ron Paul says that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi deliberately altered a house bill in order to allow the President the right to declare war on Iran without congressional approval. The article below says that her explanation was that the Israelis asked her to take out the offending prohibition.
Just who does she work for?

Value Valley – The great divide between buyer and seller
Our latest Wetherell Mayfair Market Report deals with the impasse in the residential sales market in Mayfair and the positive knock on effect to the rental market.
So far this year, there has only been a couple of handful of sales in residential Mayfair property. In the whole of 2007 there were 33 agents eating off the residential sales market cake. By 2008 the cake had shrunk to 20 agents and now to this year you can count the selling agents on two hands.
That is not to say that the market is quiet, viewings are up but new instructions are low. The amount of price reductions compared to the whole market is now 34%. Offers on individual properties are up but the difference as a percentage between buyer and seller is between 15-20%.
The difficulty for buyers and sellers alike is – what price do you place or bid for the property on the market? Do you put the property on at a high price to give the buyer a "perceived" bargain of 20%. Does the buyer just bid 20% off everything without the knowledge that the property has just been reduced by 10% already?
Where are the anchors to value, with low stock, vague transparency on sales value and continuing media speculation as to market falls across all industries.
Vendors are reluctant to sell by taking a low offers from potential purchasers
Don't want to put their money in bank – low return and risk in bank
Lack of alternative property to roll money into
Lousy conversion rate if repatriating money back home
Loan to Value issues – Lending houses won't accept low bids on repossession properties
Buyers who have cash in bank want to invest in bricks and mortar but are still not buying
Influenced by media reports of continuing downfall in prices
Lack of supply of property available
Lack of transactions gives no anchor on present or future value
Lack of finance
Loan to Value – Valuers too cautious and banks spread to wide
Buyers renting and waiting for further falls
Rental Market has 25% more applicants this year than last and a 15% rise in applicants over £2,000 p.w.
Potential buyers waiting for right property to then compete on speed and cash
Buyers think further falls to come and worth investing 5% of capital value in renting to gain a further 10% on future purchase
Companies reluctant to use cash flow for purchase of accommodation for directors
Renting over the year cheaper for executive costs than hotels
Easy exit strategy if break clauses in place
Wetherell advice to Sellers
Beauty parade a number of estate agents in your area
Chose the agents who you feel has longevity and gives advice backed up with comparables
Don't go for the highest value and lowest fee
Listen and take the advice the estate agent gives you
It is better to competitively price the property at a selling price and create competition
Wetherell's view is that investing in bricks and mortar at this point in the financial cycle is a sound investment
Property can be lived in or create an income stream
Property will be a good hedge in an inflationary market
Property is a tangible asset
Prime property still sells for prime prices but in prime locations – Where better than Mayfair
Geographically bounded
Protected by planning restraints against over-development
Lack of supply
World residential "brand" with international appeal
Rental values under-pinned by hotel RAK rates
Capital values under-pinned by income stream
Offices returning to residential use
Rejuvenation of Mayfair as the prime residential location
Wetherell view on the Mayfair market is "positive but frustrating". We currently have £36.6M of outstanding offers from 11 buyers which have been rejected by the vendors. Wetherell have £67M of property openly available for sale amounting to 24 properties out of a total market of 123 properties with a total market value of £405.6M. Few of our properties have price reductions due in part to correct initial marketing price and a reluctance of vendors to drop further. Viewings are up over 30% since end of 2008 (December: 71 viewings but 103 viewings in last four weeks). Offers on property are up and the "hot" applicants' purchasing power amounts to £59M
"Wetherell is a force to be reckoned with in London's prime real estate market"

"All good they loved it. Thank you and the team very much for your help and going the extra yards for us especially as it did get a bit tricky for a while. Will definitely recommend your company."
Jon M. - Brisbane QLD, Australia - Sep 23, 2015
"I gave a very short notice on my order. Giving them less than 2 business days and wanting it delivered on the weekend. Between those two facts, I figured my package wouldn't be on time. But I was pleasantly surprised to realize it arrived exactly when I wanted it to! The service is fantastic and ill definitely be using them again. "
Austin - USA - Mar 7, 2015
"It's great to find some online businesses who are able to provide a fast response by email and phone. I was able to call them even at 1 am and someone was always there to answer questions about my corporate order. My family has relatives in Italy and my husband is German, so we were lucky to find a place that delivered almost anywhere in Europe and US. Their prices are on a higher end, yet their customer service and speed of delivery was something I didn't mind paying for."
Deb - England - Oct 2, 2009
"Used their service for the first time and was immediately impressed by their professionalism (received a phone call soon after order was placed to confirm details) and the subsequent delivery of my gift (To Split, Croatia) was as requested. The gift itself was exactly as described and pictured in the catalogue and of the highest standard. Would highly recommend to anyone requiring overseas gift delivery."

has anyone ever heard for astro 320 uses a firmware 4:11 4:31 unlocked that goes throughout europe ???
Hi,It is possible to change region on DC30,DC40?
example:To a Greek DC40, load US firmware and to works with a astro320 US
has anyone ever heard for astro 320 uses a firmware 4:11 4:31 unlocked that goes throughout europe ???
We need advice...We tried as you wrote this procedure:
1. We downloaded 680astro320_340.rgn
2. We install garmin webupdater and put the shortcut at desktop.
3. We tried to open the downloaded file by drag and drop with webupdater.exe shortcut.
But it was not possible to do this..
So we tried to open downloaded file in program...right click on file and click on open in program, than browse to webupdater.exe..
This was successfull and it seemed that we upgraded firmware in our Astro320.
But when we checked firmware version it is still 4.40..
And the radio is still blocked, when we try to pair with collar..
When could be the mistake?
We bought astro in US with firmware version 4.40 and with T5 collar.
Please could you write the procedure what we should do to "hacked" US astro in EU..the Czech republic.. And to be able pair T5 collar..
Thank for the advice...
No need to use webuptater, use updater.
And you can't use t5 with 3.40. Use 4.30 patched for american device.
You need load both in same catalog on computer, run updater.exe, check box on "Usb device".
Switch off your Astro, press and hold up arrow on Astro and connect it to computer. You need continue to hold arrow on Astro until "Astro 320" will wrote in Usb device window in updater.exe, than click "OK" in computer. After this you can release up arrow button on Astro.
And once more. You need check Astro and SD card, if the file "Garmin/gupdate.gcd" exist you need to erase it.
Sorry my English...

Astro 320 with T5 collor.
I tried the Reverting back down the firmwares but it keeps going back to 4.40.
I can access garmin device nd find Gudater.gcd but not sure how to delete it and what should I put in its place.
I a usong windows 10.
Please can someone advise.
] (Post no. 42).
I tried and I succeeded. Unfortunately, the Barking Alert function does not work. Is there a possibility that this function will work?
I have a Astro 340 US updated with 4.40 when I bought it from US. I downgrade it with astro_320_new.gcd via Webupdate. First time when I turn the 340 on the display is right and the it track the dc40. But next time I turn it on the display is up side down and destroyed! Still tracking but I cant use it as it is. I need advise. I need the unit but I have still time to send it back to US via eBay. Best if someone could help me on this forum instead!!!! I live in Sweden.

Violence Mars Second Night Of Macedonian Protests Over Albanian Demands

Thousands of Macedonians have staged protests for a second day against calls by ethnic Albanian parties to make Albanian the country's second official language.
The protests in the capital, Skopje, and other cities on February 28 were led again by the former ruling conservative VMRO-DPMNE party, which contends the demand to institute bilingualism will splinter the country's unity.
The Skopje rally was marred by violence as two journalists from the A1on news outlet -- cameraman Vladimir Zelceski and journalist Aleksandar Todevski -- were attacked while reporting on the protests, Balkan Insight reported.
A1on editor in chief Predrag Petrovic said protesters attacked the reporters from behind and took their camera, throwing it to the ground and destroying it. He said the reporters were taken to an emergency medical center to be examined.
Ethnic Albanians comprise about a quarter of Macedonia's 2.1 million people, and Albanian is already an official language in minority-dominated areas.
But ethnic Albanian parties want its adoption nationwide, emboldened by their newfound political influence after December's inconclusive parliamentary elections.
The conservatives won the most votes, but not enough seats to govern alone. Talks to form a coalition with the Albanian parties failed over the language demand.
That led the ethnic Albanian parties to make a deal with the leader of the center-left party that finished second in the elections, who agreed to their demand to expand the use of Albanian nationwide.
Social Democratic Union (SDSM) leader Zoran Zaev is expected to be handed a mandate to try and form a government as early as March 1.
With Macedonia seemingly plunged into another phase of a long-running political crisis by the latest protests, the U.S. State Department on February 28 issued a call for "Macedonia's leaders to form a new government without further delay."
"All parties [should] put the interests of Macedonia and its citizens above all else," the department said.

As we enter into the final month of 2013, I find myself with a towering review pile, one that's dogeared and bookmarked with titles that have been lingering on that strange and dusty shelf between 'read' and 'did not finish'. Some are books that keep getting nudged aside by tour-date commitments, while others are titles I'm reluctant to cast aside altogether, but which haven't quite managed to 'hook' me and demand that I keep reading.
Seven Forges by the novelty or the uniqueness of its setting. It seems like the fantasy genre has taken a swing from forests to deserts over the past few years, but rarely does it do frozen wastes. Cover art to to the contrary, however, this really isn't an icebound tale. Despite that, I'm going to stick with the theme and declare that I never quite warmed up to this one. Being that it's an Angry Robot title, and they've rarely disappointed, I kept going back to it, hoping to find that 'hook' to keep me reading, but we never quite connected.
Don't get me wrong, this is by no means a bad book. It's imaginative, well-detailed, and full of action. Suitably epic in terms of both world-building and mythology, it has a lot to offer fans of the genre. I found myself admiring James A. Moore a great deal, and desperately wanting to like it. The opening chapters were extraordinarily slow, requiring a great deal of dedication to get through, but I found it did get better, before ultimately exploding in a wild and frantic race to the finish.
In terms of narrative, however, I found the telling a bit impersonal. I never really settled into an easy flow with it, and found myself fighting through some passages. Similarly, I didn't really find a character to latch onto as a comfortable point-of-view. The men were strong, the women gorgeous, and the monsters . . . well, monstrous. Some of the characters were interesting, particularly Merros, whom I liked a lot more than Andover, and Desh, who has some great confrontations with the likes of the Emperor, but there was nobody with whom I found myself so deeply invested in their fate that I was anxious to get back to reading.
With all of that being said, the final few chapters were absolutely fantastic, with several twists and revelations that had me nodding my head and wondering where that narrative flair was early on. Like Jeff Salyard's Scourge of the Betrayer, it's not a book that is likely to make my top list for the year, but one with enough promise to make me genuinely excited about what's coming next. Despite its flaws, Seven Forges definitely showed promise, and had enough glimpses of breakthrough potential to make me wish there was a second book readily at hand to see whether that potential is developed.

Of the two famous Lost showrunners, Damon Lindelof is the one who's had the most public success at the movies, having co-written the first Star Trek and part of the team for the sequel, plus writing the script for Prometheus, the Ridley Scott sci-fi project that isn't an Alien prequel, no matter what you heard. But now it's time for the other half of Lost's notorious duo to get into the screenwriting game. According to Deadline, Carlton Cuse will be writing an action-adventure film for Fox, with Shawn Levy on board to direct and Hugh Jackman to star.
Levy and Jackman also collaborated on the robot boxing movie Real Steel, and even though Jackman is about to reunite with his pal Darren Aronofsky to star in The Wolverine, he's apparently anxious for a Levy reunion as well. There are no further details on what the action adventure story might entail, but given that Cuse did some uncredited work on Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade back in the day-- and helped create all of those fantastic Lost escape scenes-- there's plenty reason to be excited. Deadline describes the film as a "potential tent pole," so keep an eye on Real Steel's performance this fall to see just how big this project might be.

2010 Subaru Legacy 3.6REnlarge Photo
While suspension tuning is essentially similar between all three models, there are wheel and tire differences that give each model a slightly different feel. Base models feel light and nimble, as do 2.5GT models, while the 3.6R feels a little bit heftier, with a more nose-heavy feel in sharp corners. Push the Legacy hard into a corner and there's some body lean, yet the suspension maintains grip beyond expectation; it's tough to upset the sedan's poise—especially in inclement weather—and in the best road conditions there's surprisingly little nosedive in hard braking or front-end lift in hard acceleration. All three models have quicker-ratio steering that feels boosted just right for most drivers, along with a supple ride that soaks up small imperfections, potholes, and general coarseness, and relative to its predecessor and most other mid-size sedans the new Legacy's cabin has very little road noise.
It proved difficult to find anything but a few minor issues with the new 2010 Legacy. In shifting to fifth gear on manual models, our knuckles several times hit the ill-placed hazard button (we feel the need for a short-shift kit), and a Bluetooth hands-free interface isn't offered on the base model—at a time when driver-handheld phones are quickly becoming illegal.
Most models in the Legacy lineup have gained standard equipment yet fallen in price. 3.6R models have dropped well over a grand, and throughout the entire model line standard features include a telescopically adjustable steering wheel, an overhead console, keyless entry, steering-wheel audio controls, and an electronically operated parking brake with a Hill Holder that works uphill or downhill. Worth checking out are the new 440-watt premium Harmon Kardon audio system and a new voice-activated navigation system with USB and iPod interfacing and Bluetooth streaming audio. For more detail about features, along with more photos, specs, and other news, you'll definitely want to check out our freshly posted Bottom Line on the 2010 Subaru Legacy.
The previous Legacy, while a popular choice in a few markets, was mainly a niche player. But with lower prices, more room, and higher standards of refinement, much improved fuel economy from the new CVT, and better performance from the turbo and six-cylinder engines—and all-wheel drive on all the models—the new 2010 Legacy is on its way to take on the mid-size mainstream without forgetting about Subie fans.

These pages hold all our clear quartz crystals (and other minerals that have major clear quartz aspects within them) that are of predominantly single-terminated formation, including those with a natural finish and/or polished finish. Single-terminated crystals are recognised by having a termination (point)on one end of the crystal. This is ideally both a clean and symmetrical single point, but may exhibit other aspects, such as self-healing, elestiation, twinning, dow, transmitter and so on, but should not be grouped or clustered and should have a single common base.

Great value - bought several and used them indoors and outdoors. Extremely versatile.
A necessity for a puppy posted on 08/03/2016 by lydia
Used this from day one when bringing home 8 week old cavapoo. She is now 14 weeks and this pen has kept her safe and prevented household chewing and soiling the couple of hours she is home alone when our shifts overlap. XS is very low, but perfect for her so far there is no way she could jump out yet. We don't intend to keep her in a pen when alone forever so if she ever does outgrow it then it will just have reached the end of its purpose, but spot on for small breeds, would just need higher for bigger jumpy dogs.
Fantastic!! Wish I had bought one years ago for my previous dog!! posted on 04/08/2015 by s4ndradee
Great Puppy playpen. Ideal for my JR/Chihuahua puppies. Its light,I can just about step over it, I can hook it onto my puppy crate and prop the crate door open by feeding the pin through both pen and crate. It can be easily moved, can be used with as many panels as you wish to make the space smaller or larger. I absolutely love it!! Just wish they sold it in silver. Soon easy for the 'pins' to slide in. I 'stab' my puppy training pads under them to stop pups pulling them to pieces. My puppies have the perfect, safe surroundings by using the crate for a feeding/sleeping area with their basket in it and a play/poop area in the corner of the playpen. They come and go as they please. I fold it away 'concertina' style and it lays 'almost' flat (ish) . It's perfect and I will definitely buy another one to keep in the garden. Great value for money.
Excellent product posted on 11/02/2015 by BFB

Brilliant alternate use posted on 26/11/2014 by Lindylou
By purchasing 2 sets of the Puppy Pen. I was able to utilise the panels fixing pins to successfully fence off my patio therefore keeping my puppy off the lawn. Result, no muddy footprints running in the house better still giving a paved area for exercise toilet training easily hosed down when needed. No whoopsies on the grass. Happy puppy, happy owner.

Director Shankar's upcoming Tamil movie I, which is also simultaneously made in Telugu and Hindi, has often been making headlines in the recent times and that too in connection with the casting female lead in the film. The rumours mills in the K-Town are abuzz with the news that Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra has been approached for this much-anticipated movie, which is produced by Aascar Ravichandran.
Interestingly, the news about Priyanka Chopra started doing rounds soon after another Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone denied reports that she has been approached for the multilingual film I. Reports suggest that Piggy Chops has been approached by the producers of the film an year ago.
Reports suggest that Shankar's I starring Vikram in the male lead, is set in two different time period. Actress Amy Jackson is reportedly playing the female lead in one portion. Now, the producers are in search of another popular actress for another portion. They are reportedly in talks with PC, who is expected to take a call on it soon.
Meanwhile, a source close to the actress admits that Priyanka Chopra was approached by a member from Shankar's team for a film and that too last year and she had rejected the offer as she was busy working round the clock. But the source denies that PC has not been approached by anyone now.
However, the source did not turn down the possibility of PC signing the movie I. It further says that Shankar is a very big director in South India and getting an opportunity to work with him is a big deal. The source adds, "If dates can be worked out, Priyanka Chopra will sign the movie."

your wolf robot has extraordinarily small stubby legs and what is with the hands on the robot? do they perform any function? do animal studies if you're going to draw animals and also think about the functionality of your robots.
Hi XUYANJUN - Welcome to CA. You have a beatutiful style and your rendering is lovely. The only crits I'd have is pretty much what Krato said - just a little more design thinking and study of animals and tech needed. Great work - keep it up.

The Bierkeller is Oktoberfest, slap bang in the heart of the famous Printworks – a huge entertainment complex housing restaurants, clubs and even a cinema. This venue is one of several up and down the country – it's a completely new experience.
There are four huge bars serving the finest selections of German draught beers – and the staff are all in traditional Bavarian garb. You can even get authentic German food, including snacks to a massive hog roast. But, this place truly comes alive as the lights dim.
Live Oom-pah bands entertain the crowd, and the 200 people long-benches are packed with people standing, swilling their two-pinter steins and attempting to perform the Schuhplattler (German slap dance to you and us).

RBS must raise £2billion after failing a stress test
ROYAL Bank of Scotland must raise about £2billion to bolster its finances after being found wanting in an annual health check of Britain's banking system.
The Royal Bank of Scotland will need to raise £2bn following Britain's banking health check
RBS – over 70 per cent of which is owned by the taxpayer – emerged as the weakest performer of the seven biggest banks tested for their ability to withstand "very severe" shocks to the economy.
The Bank of England used a doomsday scenario of a 30 per cent fall in house prices and a 4.5 percentage point rise in unemployment.
It also included a separate misconduct-cost stress. Barclays and Standard Chartered also struggled in the toughest test yet modelled by the Bank but were judged to have sufficient capital-raising plans in place.
HSBC, Lloyds Banking Group, Santander and building society Nationwide came through without showing capital inadequacies.
RBS is more than 70 per cent owned by the taxpayer
The Bank said that, taking into account measures put in place, "the banking system is capitalised to support the real economy even under a broad, severe and synchronised stress scenario".
We are committed to creating a stronger, simpler and safer bank
RBS, led by chief executive Ross McEwan, pictured, is facing a potential bill of billions of pounds to settle claims it misled investors in selling US mortgage-backed securities.
It said it had taken a number of actions this year to improve its capital position, including shrinking its balance sheet and settling various litigation cases.
Further actions include cutting costs and selling non-core loans. But RBS, which has racked up losses of more than £50billion since its £45billion bailout eight years ago, warns that "additional management actions may be required until its balance sheet is sufficiently resilient to stressed scenarios".
The bank said it had taken a number of actions this year to increase capital
Its stress-test failure deals another blow to the Government's ambitions to sell its stake and to shareholders' hopes for a resumption of dividend payouts.
RBS chief financial officer Ewen Stevenson said: "We are committed to creating a stronger, simpler and safer bank for our customers and shareholders. We have taken further important steps in 2016 to enhance our capital strength but we recognise that we have more to do to restore the bank's stress resilience."

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 470859
openssh minor annoyance in a spec file
Last modified: 2009-02-12 10:40:50 EST
Description of problem:
There is the following fragment in the package spec:
%if %{WITH_SELINUX}
%patch12 -p1 -b .selinux
%patch13 -p1 -b .mls
%patch16 -p1 -b .audit
%patch17 -p1 -b .inject-fix
%patch18 -p1 -b .pam_selinux
and patch16, i.e. openssh-4.7p1-audit.patch, modifies configure.ac file. The trouble is that one of chunks of patch51, i.e. openssh-5.1p1-nss-keys.patch, does that in the same region again and if %{WITH_SELINUX} was set to 0 it fails because configure.ac does not look like expected with one line "missing".
One possible way to fix it would be to have that fragment of patch51 which touches configure.ac in a separate patch with two slightly different variants to be applied conditionally on a state of %{WITH_SELINUX}

Liberals are apart of the left wing movement and so are democrats. That doesn't mean that liberals are democrats, what does is that a large 'unspecified' percent of liberals classify themselves as democrats. Even some moderate democrats to even light democrats call themselves liberal. The same would go for a conservative. The only slight difference is that one side is more vocal.
Most liberals describe themselves as democrat, due to the fact that they are willing to shed a little American blood to save face. On the other hand, all conservatives are republicans because put the American people they took an oath to protect in front of hurting people's feelings. Repblicans are much more sensible in every sense of the word, as they take the lives of the American people considerably more seriously, as they take action, and are proactive as opposed to reactive. Go Rubio

Go Rubio
In an American sense, yes liberal equals democrat. In an international sense, their profession would be mild social democracy and practice centre-right neoliberalism. The word liberal, like many other political terms, has a lot of propaganda surrounding it here in the States that is is hard for people to realize what these words actually mean.
While it is not an absolute, Democrats are often labeled as liberal, just as Republicans are often described as conservative. However, someone does not have to be a liberal to be a Democrat. All Democrat policies are not necessarily liberal either. But the majority of people who describe themselves as liberals belong to the Democratic Party.
To dumb it down, we are not all in the same page. All of our opinions are in conflict with each other. For example I'm a Democrat. I like having guns, most would disagree with me. I'm against trangenders going into the wrong bathroom but I believe in gay marriage. Liberals want marihuana, I'm against it. I believe 9/11 wasn't a conspiracy ,but pissed off Muslims.
The term liberal means free... As in free market. The Republicans were considered liberal at one time because of freedom of trade. Freedom of market, etc.
Going forward in time, liberal is more in tune with the term libertarian. That means squarely in the middle of things. In other words, neither left wing, nor right wing. Neither Conservative nor radical. Which, the Democrats are not.
So, are the Democrats liberal? No. Are they free thinking? To a point, but are very closed minded to hearing opposing arguments much of the time, so no. They are not liberal, they are Democrat/Progressive.
"Liberal" is a term Conservative Republicans throw out as an insult to anyone who doesn't see the world exactly as they do. It's much more complicated than that. I actually support about 50% of both Republican and Democrat issues, depending on the plans set forth to incorporate them. I think most Americans are somewhere in the middle, to be honest. It's unfortunate the two parties hold basically a monopoly on all major political positions. The lack of term limits ensures this will always be the case.
The Republican party has been fighting wars and cutting taxes (mostly on the richest Americans) for years. That doesn't sound financially conservative to me. If we are going to fight wars, we should pay for them. Democrats advocate for higher minimum wages. I think companies should have to pay the true cost of their employees. The taxpayer pays the high cost of the low wage employees. Higher taxes are necessary to pay for health benefits of those employees as well as food and housing assistance.
What if low paying company X relied completely on a machine and didn't hire anyone? What if that company didn't wan to pay for machine repair or even to protect the machine from the elements? Should the taxpayer pay those costs for the employer? It's the same thing. Low wages are not a conservative value.
America or rather Americans don't even understand the ideologies that they label themselves with.
The label Liberal, which was used to identify people who subscribe to the "Liberalism" school of thought has been abused and now used to label people who do not practice anything akin to the original "Liberalism" school of thought.
People do not even understand "Liberalism" yet constantly abuse the "Liberals" tag just as how the "Conservatives" do not practice "Conservatism".
In a nutshell, Americans need to learn how to use Google and attempt to read the works of the originators of the individual ideologies before they even start discussing or even speaking about them.
As a Conservative speaking, no. You have moderate democrats, you have democrats, you have liberal democrats, and you progressive liberals. Most of the people who I know personally, are moderates or average democrats. But more and more people tend to be getting more liberal, especially this generation. But that doesn't automatically mean you're a liberal.
Most Democrats has always been conservative, especially in the 19th and 20th century. The label came to be after WWII when the LIBERAL Republicans didn't want to be compared to Soviet communists because they were the party of equality and reform, so they switched positions in order to maintain their position in Congress. There is also a chart categorizing modern voters by ideals, 40% conservative, 41% moderate, and 19% liberal, but more people voted Democrat, so there's that. Now, the Democratic Party has to appeal to anyone that the Republicans have not shunned in order to survive in Congress, including the one-issue, watered-down Marxists of today.
it is true that the democratic party has shared some of the same ideas as the liberals but this does not make them the same party. the liberal party is a lot more extreme than the democrats and should not be consider the same party for they have and always will disagree. its the same as the conservatives and the republicans.
The Democratic party is generally rather moderate in its policies. Some of its stances are liberal, but others are actually rather conservative. In addition, right wing talk radio has made "liberal" something of a dirty word so a lot of Democrats would rather not be called "liberal" even if they fit the definition.
Only about fifteen to twenty percent of Americans call themselves liberal, but about half vote as democrats. Calling yourself liberal requires that you subscribe to this viewpoint on a list of issues - 80% do not see themselves fully aligned with liberal positions on a number of issues even if they do align with liberals on some. The largest group of people consider themselves neither liberal nor conservative.

Market Views▼
November brought more than a few uncertainties to the fore following the election of Donald Trump, but we were surprised that many included a rate hike as one of them. At the time, we said that after Thanksgiving, cooler heads would prevail and that the market eventually would again start building in a December Federal Reserve move, one we remained quite bullish on. Turns out, it didn't even take that long. The implied probability of the Fed raising rates jumped back even before the holiday. Fed futures are now nearly unanimous in expecting a 25 basis-point increase in the target fed funds range at this point. There would have to be a calamity in the world for this not to happen. Every Fed governor who has spoken publically, including Chair Yellen recently in front of Congress, has essentially said this.
We also expect the Dec. 14 Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting to raise expectations of future action. As you know, on several occasions in 2016 policymakers reduced their projections for the number of times they would raise rates this year and next. We think the improving U.S. economy and the likelihood for fiscal stimulus from the Trump administration, in whatever form it takes, will lead to higher growth, inflation and rates. This scenario won't play out until at least mid-2017, but expectations are growing for three hikes instead of two. If the latter, it would probably be one in March and September. Cash managers' main instruments, including Treasuries, agencies and commercial paper, already are beginning to price that in.
All of this, of course, is good news from a return perspective for money market funds. And it is important to keep in mind that total return is now the gauge of performance for institutional prime money market funds rather than just yield, which has the potential to change slightly because prime funds now float their shares' net asset value (NAV).
On this subject, hardly a day goes by that someone doesn't ask us if the Trump administration's pledge to reduce regulation would apply to the reforms of Rule 2a-7 that forced a floating NAV. We don't see it. The focus likely will be on changes that have not yet occurred, such as the recently announced Department of Labor fiduciary rule or some Dodd-Frank requirements not yet enacted.
What about the Fed? We doubt the leadership makeup will change midstream. Janet Yellen will be chair until her term ends in early 2018, although she probably won't be re-elected. However, new FOMC voting members will come into play in 2017 that should turn what is a currently dovish membership to one more balanced and has some definite hawks in it. This would continue the theme of higher rates and a pro-growth, normalized inflation environment.
We continue to keep our target weighted average maturity (WAM) at 40-50 days, with most in the middle of that range. Government WAMs have been a little longer than prime funds, actually. This may seem a little long of a position in a rising-rate environment, but the yield curve is steep and offering such value. The London interbank offered rate (Libor) curve rose over the month of November: one-month Libor increased from 0.53% to 0.62%, three-month from 0.89% to 0.93% and six-month from 1.26% to 1.64%.

If you have the desire to join a winning team Whitminster CC start their indoor nets at Archway School, Stroud on Sunday evenings from 8-9pm from 6th February 2011.
If interested please contact Jim Hyland on 07721005973.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Lung Cancer Alliance, Washington, DC, USA
I, too found out about my stage I lung cancer by accident. A routine x-ray revealed "a mass". My journey began that day and now, almost two years later, I am alive thanks to my amazing and wonderful doctor at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. I joined the Lung Cancer Alliance to get support, information and most of all to share my continuing medical journey.
The stories we share are sometimes sad, hopeful, full of joy and love. Here's mine, I live life today and in the now. Thanks, LCA, for being my partner along this road.
