text: I started part time a few months ago and mow 3 yards plus mine every other week. It is going well so I may have to step it up next year and hire someone to help. Right now since I have made under $3000 I don't need a business license but plan on getting one because I will break the $3000 barrier early next year probably. I plan on putting out flyers over the winter for gutter cleaning and next spring for lawn care so I should get many more jobs for next year. I speak fluent spanish so getting help won't be a problem, besides help probably knows more than I about this business. I now have 3 mowers and will probably get a commercial 21" next year along with another trimmer and blower. Thanks to everyone who supported my undercutting plan and to those who thought I was a fly by night guy sorry to disappoint. john deere 48" quik trak exmark 36" tthp exmark 52" tt stihl fs80r stihl br600 stihl hs81t been using my tacoma and 6x10 tilt trailer to haul stuff

text: I just wanted to know what some of you guys would do for a 2 acre lawn installation. I want several different options so I can take several bids to the customer. I will be planting Tall Fescue, probably K-31. I would apply lime first. It is rough graded, but I would like to have my tractor guy come in and loosen and smooth the soil with a combo of a tiller and pulverizer. However, I believe this may be too expensive. Starter Fertilizer would then be put out, followed by seed, and then we would blow straw. What would you guys do?

Parineeti Chopra looked every bit exquisite when she attended the launch event of Pantene shampoo. Parineeti was seen wearing a pretty short dress in white.
Parineeti Chopra is the brand ambassador of the shampoo brand Pantene. While Parineeti looked every bit ravishing she has also gained weight. In her upcoming film Daawat-e-Ishq in which she plays a shoe salesgirl who is disillusioned with love because of her encounters with dowry-seeking men.
Looks like she has gained those extra kilos while shooting for her film Daawat-e-Ishq tasting all delicacies of Lucknow. Parineeti Chopra and Aditya Roy Kapur sizzle on-screen together for Habib Faisal's film Daawat-e-Ishq for the first time.
Aditya Roy Kapur plays a role of a Lucknowi chef. Aditya said in an interview, "It's a pleasure to work with Habib. He is one of the finest filmmakers in the industry. It makes a big difference to work with such a filmmaker."
Check out the pics of Parineeti...

The Good - Located in Legaspi Village, BSA Mansion has a prime spot in Makati Central Business District. Aside from accessibility to main roads such as Gil Puyat Avenue and EDSA, popular shopping malls and banking institutions are nearby. Residents can enjoy the happenings Legaspi Village has: food joints, specialty market, art events, and parks.
The Bad - While BSA Mansion serves both as a condominium and a hotel, the condo and hotel units are mixed-up - they don't have a specific floor designation in the building. In addition, the fitness gym is crowded with gym equipment which limits equipment-free exercises. Also, the unit density is high with 12 units per floor.
Disclaimer: ZipMatch deployed property scouts to different projects in for a balanced look at each property. Reviews are based on short, firsthand visits. Property scouts are not necessarily residents of the property they are reviewing.
Location is great - Greenbelt is just walking distance and if you are saving money on food, there are convenience stores on the street and a budget eatery behind the building. There is also a laundromat on the ground floor. We had a major drainage problem though. The building could use a little updating.

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) George O'Leary can now add this to his resume: assistant head coach, Minnesota Vikings.
O'Leary got another chance when one of his former high school players new Vikings head coach Mike Tice hired him Friday.
Nearly a month ago, O'Leary resigned in disgrace only five days after getting his dream job as head coach at Notre Dame. He quit following revelations he had lied on his resume about his academic and athletic credentials.
"I'm just happy to be part of the picture right now," O'Leary said. "I'm looking forward to it. I've been dealing with a lot of other problems as you know, but I'm looking forward to coaching, and that's what I really enjoy."
O'Leary will coach the Vikings' defensive line while serving as assistant head coach.
Tice played for O'Leary in New York at Central Islip High School in Long Island.
At a news conference to announce O'Leary's hiring, Tice asked reporters to stay away from questions about the Notre Dame situation. He called O'Leary both a close friend and "a pretty damn good football coach."
"Anybody knows I'm going to lean on George tremendously," Tice said. "He has a lot more head coaching experience than I do. I want to make sure that people understand his role, not only as a defensive line coach, but a sounding board for me and a mentor for me that I'm able to work with at this stage in my career."
Asked afterward if the Notre Dame problem weighed on his mind when considering O'Leary, Tice replied: "Not even a bit."
O'Leary, the former Georgia Tech coach, was hired by Notre Dame on Dec. 8. He falsely stated in his biographical sketch that he had a master's degree in education from New York University and had earned three letters as a New Hampshire football player. He attended New Hampshire only two years and didn't play in any games.
"George O'Leary will no doubt be a great addition to the Vikings' staff," Notre Dame athletic director Kevin White said. "Personally speaking, I am most pleased to learn that he has been offered, and accepted, this opportunity."
Earlier Friday, Vikings owner Red McCombs declined comment on O'Leary, but told The Associated Press he was "on board" with Tice on any coaching staff decisions.
"I like the direction he is going," McCombs said. "I feel very good about the staff he is proposing."
O'Leary was a defensive line coach for the San Diego Chargers from 1992-93 before beginning his second stint at Georgia Tech as a defensive coordinator in 1994. He was 52-33 at Georgia Tech and was twice picked as the Atlantic Coast Conference's coach of the year.
As defensive line coach, O'Leary will serve under new defensive coordinator Willie Shaw, who was promoted Friday from defensive backs coach.
Tice, hired to replace Dennis Green, still has to fill the slots for his offensive coordinator, offensive line and special teams coaches. He said Friday he would interview Art Shell, the former Oakland Raiders coach, for the offensive line position.
Tice said he plans on taking his time filling the offensive coordinator job.

The Chronicles of Koa Book Review
What would you do if a demon threatened your mother's life? If you're like Koa, you'd sharpen your enchanted sword and hunt him down…Our world is threatened by the creatures of an alternate land called the Netherworld. Koa and the Netherworld division are there to keep the vampire and demon population in check. Koa is a powerful half-blood vampire. Her best friend is her boss, she has a cursed mother, an enchanted sword, and an attractive human pet.
Koa also has a problem. A Netherworld serial killer, that targets little girls for the power they give to him, threatens everything Koa has worked hard to protect. Not even Koa's boss, Halston can stop him. But he knows one prisoner that can. Too bad that prison is in the Netherworld.
Is Koa ready to journey to the Netherworld to release the one creature that can break her mother's curse and protect all that she holds dear?
Dark Prophet~
Not all vampires are created equal…
Koa is a half-blood vampire with not only the ability to fly, but survive in the sun's light. She will do anything to protect her mother, and break her curse. The demon, Bund, wants more than her mother's life. He wants something from Koa, a power that she doesn't even know she has, and will rip through as many humans as he can to get her to surrender.
Agent Koa Ryeo-won, and her boss, Halston, formed a crew of supernatural agents to stop Bund. But is a prophet, a temptress, a War-Breeder, a half-blood with an enchanted sword, and a few angels enough to stop what Bund has planned?
In the midst of a war between the humans of the mortal world, and the creatures of the Netherworld, Koa discovers the truth of her past. She finds herself torn between two men, and in the center of everything. Faced with all of her returned memories, Koa also finds herself more powerful than ever. Being a half-blood is hard enough, but what exactly is Koa's other half?
The truth can save…or destroy everything.
Will the Netherworld Division stand behind Koa once they learn her secret?
I received paperback copies of these books from the author in exchange for an honest review.
My Reviews
Netherworld~ This is the first book in this series. Netherworld sucked me into the story from page one and moves full speed ahead. Koa is a strong protagonist in the story, and the cast of supporting characters is varied and intriguing. There is a lot going on in this story, but the flow is easy to follow and the writing is smooth. This is not your typical vampire, good vs. evil story. Koa is definitely a one-of-a-kind "half" vampire. She is strong and independent, yet she has a soft side. This story is full of characters you will undoubtedly want to get to know, and you will love getting to know Koa, her boss Halston, her mother Raven and more. Secrets, vampires and demons and a host of other characters that author K.N. Lee has thought up, are just a start to this first look into Koa's life, and it was such a treat to read. I highly recommend this book.
Dark Prophet~ What an amazing sequel!!! This book was just as hard to put down as the first. Author K.N. Lee definitely kept story alive. Dark Prophet begins where Netherworld ends and gives us a very imaginative look into what is happening with Koa. Action, love and new age fantasy are just some of the great things about this series of books and this one has all of the greatness that started Netherworld and more. The story begins with Koa and Jax trying to escape the Netherworld, all while Koa is trying to work through feelings she has for two people. How's that for a story beginning? I highly recommend this book for anyone who needs a little action/adventure and fantasy in their collection. This book series is a must read!
About the Author
K.N. Lee is an award-winning author that resides in Charlotte, North Carolina. When she is not writing twisted sales, fantasy novels, and dark poetry, she does a great deal of traveling and promotes other authors. Wannabe rock-star, foreign language enthusiast, and anime geek, K.N. Lee also enjoys helping others reach their writing and publishing goals.

Her short fantasy story, The Last of the Jinn, is in the anthology, A World of Worlds and The Ticking Ring is in A World of Joy by ASMSG authors.
Thanks for posting! I love the reviews. I'm so glad that you enjoyed the books.

The 81st Convention of Amateur Telescope Makers on Breezy Hill in Springfield, Vermont was held Thursday through Sunday, August 4-7, 2016.
The Springfield Telescope Makers would like to thank all those who attended the 2016 Stellafane Convention and made it a success, especially all volunteers and club members who help so much with Pre-Convention setup, our programs, and operations and cleanup. It's a lot of work! We thank all the excellent speakers who make their expertise and experience available through their talks and workshops. To those of you who brought homemade telescopes to display on Breezy Hill, a special thank you for sharing your accomplishments and inspiring the next generation of telescope makers - we had a large set of interesting and innovative scopes this year, from a very John Dobson-ish junior to some amazing reflectors and refractors. Allen Hall and Dick Parker graced Breezy Hill with the finest amateur project in Stellafane history, a beautiful matched pair of 6" f/15 Alvan Clark refractor reproductions.
We had a strong attendance, with quite a few first timers, which is really nice to see. Optical competition was completed on Friday night and Mechanical competition happened Saturday morning under a beautiful blue sky. In both Optical and Mechanical competition, we debuted our new Master Class category, and as hoped it was a great success. Saturday evening we had afternoon clouds, some light showers with distant lightning,and decent observing after midnight.
Our keynote speaker, Dr. Fred Espenak, spoke eloquently on the beauty of solar eclipse observing and gave us terrific and precise advice on how to plan for next year's North American eclipse. Dr. Kris Larsen presented a fun Shadowgram titled "You Never Forget Your First Time," with lots of audience participation and laughter.
Thursday's Hartness House Workshop was titled "Subarcsecond Spacial Resolution Imaging" and was pronounced outstanding by those who attended.
This year's Teen Robotics Program, presented again by Paul Fucile of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, was a fantastic project based around the New Horizons mission to Pluto.
Our food tent woes of the past two years were fixed with a resounding cheer of happiness, as Jim Ferguson and family fed us well with delicious and healthy fare. They even had food available through the night for hungry observers, and on the honor system no less.
A much anticpated highlight of Convention was the arrival of Allen Hall and Dick Parker with their twin 6" Alvan Clark Reproductions. Magnifiently handcrafted, these masterpieces were perhaps the finest instruments ever to grace Breezy Hill. The craftsmanship and attention to detail displayed was inspiring, and there were two of them!
The overall convention schedule at a glance and details for all scheduled events are linked here. You can also download the printable Convention Bulletin (PDF format) which was given to each attendee when they arrived.
Continuing a series begun in 2009, this year's Hartness House Workshop focused on super high resolution imaging. Next year our topic will be Exo-Planets, hope to see you there.
The Springfield Telescope Makers would like to thank the following people and/or companies for donating prizes to the raffle at the 2015 Stellafane convention or goods and services that are sold or used for the convention. We thank:
Special thanks to Tele Vue and Al & David Nagler for donating
Special thanks to Willmann-Bell and Perry & Patricia Remaklus for donating sets of their excellent Astronomy and Telescope Making Books for many, many years.
This year's book prizes were four large sets of Willmann-Bell books.

We have great littel video of the tenn program in action - watch the space probes they built 'fly' by an astroid, Jupiter and Pluto and take photos and data..
A challenge to observe at least 15 deep sky objects, accessible in small to large amateur telescopes, has been developed for us by Larry Mitchell, who is in charge of the Texas Star Party Advanced Observing Program. Try your observing skills and earn a pin for your efforts.
This page contains important information about the convention, including lighting policies, pet policies, food service, on-site bus service and where to set up your telescope. Check this page for answers to any questions you may have.

I made 12 lbs of sausage and added 1/2 of a packet of sausage cure. This is the sausage cure from the Hi Mountain Home Sausage Kits. one pack does 24 lbs so I added half. I'm not sure if its # 1 or # 2. (use the "google converter" to get your amounts in pounds & ounces) Premix all the spices according to the amount of sausage you will make. I use 30% pork fat and 70% deer meat. I coarse grind my deer meat adding a chunk of pork fat for every 3 to 4 pieces adding the fat evenly though out the grind. Coarse grind the meat only once. In a large cooler mix the appropriate amount of spice mix to the ground meat/fat and thoroughly hand mix or use a meet mixer if you got one. I use the large sausage stuffing tube that came with my Cabela's meat grinder. Knot the end of your natural pig casing and stuff the seasoned meat to the desired sausage lengths then knot the other end. I use 10" pieces of hemp twine and tie the ends of each sausage together. Hang the sausages in a cold dry place. Once per day, lay the Lukanka on a clean dry cutting board and roll them flat using a rolling pin. Don't apply too much pressure the first few days as not to split the casings open. As the Luknaka dries, the color darkens and the sausage gets harder and harder. Continue to roll them flat once per day until the hardness of the sausage holds itself stiff, then let them finish drying to the desired hardness. I prefer hard Lukanka which takes about 3 weeks to a month depending on the humidity and temperature. This is my wife's aunt's recipe from Bulgaria.We've been making it ourselves for 4 years now. Winter seems to be the best time to make it because the air is dryer and cooler and that's what this traditional Bulgarian Lukanka calls for. Have fun & Enjoy!

Greetings Agents,
It is my pleasure to announce a major new feature for the site. This feature should make it easier for agents to be up to date with the latest progress of the Niantic Project Investigation. Today, we are making available to the public our Niantic Project Investigation Log. This new tool collects data from specific sources that contain documents and media related to the investigation. It is running continuously and has the ability to send a notification email when new entries have been recorded.
Sources currently include the Niantic Project Site and a few Google Plus profiles related to the investigation like Hubert Farlowe. We intend to add more sources to the data collector over the next few days.
Today we are announcing a new tool available to you from IngressFieldGuide, the Recharge Efficiency Calculator. This calculator will provide you insight into the recharge efficiency you will have when recharging portals remotely. It was designed using jQuery mobile like our Portal Level Calculator, so it is mobile friendly. If you need help with the calculator, be sure to click the help button in the upper right hand corner.
We could not have developed this new tool without the excellent research and analysis conducted by Jay V van Zyl as he was kind enough to share his findings with us.
A new Klue clue has been posted by truths33k3r. The title of this clue is called "base" and contains the text:
Here is the photo:
Michael Shuler tipped me off that he has been able to get 17 links onto a portal. The portal is at a post office in Tahlequah, OK and you can view the portal from the Intel Map.
I hope this new information assists you with your mission. I have updated the Ingress Portals & Linking Guide.
Greetings Agents,
A field agent discovered the site, hackingress.com, and notified me immediately. The site has a JavaScript countdown timer which is counting down to January 14th at 1600 hours. Here is all of the information we were able to discover regarding this site. The domain routes to IP address 126.96.36.199 which turns up at Linode's data center in Absecon, NJ. The whois information has told us that it was registered today for 1 year @ GoDaddy and is hosted with Linode.com. Review the full record below.
I have it on good authority that the Klue clue posted yesterday has been solved, but not leaked yet. I believe it has something to do with the string of text @ Katalena Media document: "TOK WHO KEM TOI ZEV MIW ELI MLO WON MNT EFO WVT TII WMI VIO ETK"
The Klue clue states "eis zwei drüü" which is "one two three" from swiss numbering and says counting can reveal truths. Wonder what she means by counting? What can we count with the above string?
Greetings agents,
A new "Klue Clue" has been posted by truths33k3r approximately 19 hours ago. The title of the clue is "WHO's there" and has "toktok" within the url path. I need your help to solve this puzzle.

Following the battle, the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo saw the Mexican regions of Alta California as well as Santa Fé de Nuevo México yielded to the United States to become modern-day California, Texas, New Mexico, Utah, Colorado as well as Arizona.( Texas really split from Mexico numerous years previously to form a breakaway republic, and was voluntarily( volunteer????? )linked by the United States in 1846.). The campaign taps right into the nationwide pride of Mexicans, inning accordance with Favio Ucedo, creative supervisor of leading Latino
ad agency Grupo Gallegos in the UNITED STATE, which was not associated with the Absolut project. Ucedo, who is from Argentina, claimed:" Mexicans chat concerning how the Americans swiped their land, so this is their method
of reclaiming it. It's very pertinent and the Mexicans will certainly enjoy the idea.". However he claimed that were the campaign to run in the USA, it could fail." Lots of people aren't going to comprehend it right here. Americans in the East and the North or in the facility of the county– I do not
understand if they know much about the history. "Possibly Americans in Texas as well as California recognize completely and also I have no idea exactly how they 'd take it. ". Meanwhile, the project has been flowing on the blogs as well as creating solid actions from people north of the border." I
find this ad deeply offensive, as well as needlessly disruptive. I will certainly now challenge alcohol consumption other brands. And' vodka and also tonic' is my beverage," stated one site visitor, called New Yorker, on MexicoReporter.com. Viewers Paul Eco-friendly goes into a discussion on the blog site Entrance Pundit of whether the UNITED STATE territories ever belonged to Mexico in the very first
place, as well as the News12 Lengthy island site invited individuals to boycott Absolut, with one user, called LivingSmall, creating:" If you consume Absolut vodka, you can voice your approval or disapproval of this ad campaign with your purchases. I recognize I will be changing to Grey Goose or Stoli and also will never have one more bottle of Absolut in my home." Hey Absolut … that's my type of social discourse.". From L.a Times:. From the Associated Press. 6:58 PM PDT, April 5, 2008. MEXICO CITY– The Absolut vodka firm
asked forgiveness Saturday for an advertising campaign showing the
southwestern UNITED STATE as part of
Mexico amid upset phone calls for a boycott by UNITED STATE customers.
The campaign, which promotes ideal circumstances under the slogan "In an Absolut Globe"; revealed a 1830s-era map when Mexico consisted of The golden state, Texas as well as various other southwestern states
. Mexico still resents shedding that territory in the 1848 Mexican-American Battle as well as the battle for Texas self-reliance. Now, we differ, because, we claim it was an invasion, not a "war". Yet the advertisements, which ran just in Mexico and also have actually considering that ended, came as the USA constructs up its boundary
safety amid an emotional argument over unlawful immigration from their southerly "neighbor.
Greater than a loads phones call to boycott Absolut were posted on michellemalkin.com, an Internet site operated by traditional columnist Michelle Malkin. The ads stimulated warmed discuss a half-dozen other Internet sites
and also blogs. "In no chance was it implied to upset or defame, neither does it promote a changing of borders, neither does it offer assistance to any kind of anti-American view, nor does it reflect migration problems," Absolut said in a declaration left on its customer questions phone"line. Some edge U.S. groups additionally declare the land is rightfully component of Mexico, while severe immigration opponents argue components of the United States currently are being surpassed by Mexico. "In an Absolut globe", a business that generates vodka discharges its whole advertising division in a desperate effort
to recover furious North American consumers after a dreadful ad project backfires. A strategy for extensive immigration reform developed to deal with an approximated 12 million
"undocumented immigrants in the USA– the huge bulk from Mexico– collapsed last summer under the psychological weight of the debate. Absolut said the advertisement was created for a Mexican target market as well as meant to recall "a time which the population of Mexico may feel was extra ideal". "As a global business, we recognize that people in various components of the world may offer various point of views or analyze our ads in a different method than was meant in that market, as well as for that we apologize". Vin & Sprit, Absolut's Sweden-based moms and dad company, will certainly be acquired by French spirit manufacturer Pernod Ricard SA"under a deal got to recently.

With the NBA team returning to the playoffs after a long absence, and a slick new ad touting its outsider status, Toronto fans are backing the Raptors with an enthusiasm usually reserved for the more popular Maple Leafs.

However, I observe some people who do tadoku but tend to become doubtful saying that if tadoku really enhances abilities necessary for learning new words&phrases. I wondered why I'm able to feel the power of tadoku style learning so definitely and some aren't. And I came to conclude that there has to be some crucial factor working actively on those people who can make tadoku the most beneficial.
It's serendipity. With your serendipity deep in asleep, tadoku would never gift you any findings or inspirations.
Now, let me tell you, what urged me to write this entry about serendipity and that was this review I found in Goodreads; "For me, books are pausing places. They provide me pockets from where I can absorb, reflect, ponder, and reshuffle life's minutia and meaning. Anne Lamont's latest book _Help Thanks Wow_ provided me a serendipitous pausing place from which I just came out feeling quite moved and grateful."
See? What happened upon me is; I was thinking about the word serendipity on and off, and then I bumped into the very word while I was reading book reviews aimlessly. Actually I often experience these serendipity moments in life, and every time it occurs, I feel vigorous and joyous thinking how wonderful that I'm so alive!
Why I'm able to use serendipity for tadoku? Why there are some people whose serendipity seems to be fast asleep? I think the reason is quite simple; I read English books thoroughly for pleasure, on the other hand, some people do tadoku mainly for learning. I read books for fun, so my mind is focused on enjoying the story to my heart's content. My mind is free and spongy. But if you're concerned about learning English even a tiny bit while you're reading books, then your mind tends to be rigid and static that it could shut the things which has nothing to do with your learning English, thus your serendipity would remain inactive...
It really is an interesting topic. I'll be more than happy if any of you readers could share the same experiences to mine about serendipity in your tadoku.
Your generous one click can change the way of learning English!

text: Hello everyone, as we all know the HTC Desire is a great phone, so great in fact that I am not too pleased about not being able to upgrade from my Hero until January! I thought I would ask the question and see if I can pay an extra to upgrade early but T-Mobile UK said no, which is fair enough. What I am wondering now then is that if I buy a Sim-Free HTC Desire and put my sim card in it, will I be able to download the Internet settings and effectively use the internet? Thank you in advance for any light you can shed on this.

I once heard a guru who was asked which religion was correct. I found his response very wise.
He said religion is like trying to get to an island in the middle of the sea. There are many boats available. You select the skipper in whom you have the most trust, and the boat which seems most seaworthy. You may laugh at your neighbour who chooses the rowing boat – but then, how do you know your engine won't break down, and you'll be left adrift while he reaches the island safely?
But you cannot "hedge your bets" by keeping one foot in your boat and the other in his — you will end up in the water.
The lesson is that, at the end of the day, all religions are trying to reach the same God, and we all choose a different method to reach Him. The important thing is that we choose your boat and commit ourselves to our own journey. And we should respect the choice of others who choose a different boat.
Ah, but some would say, my God is NOT the same as the Gods of other religions. The question is, how do you know? All you know is that the believers of other religions describe Him differently. That description is based on their perception of God, as described by their religion's founder. That founder would have interpreted His words in the context of the culture at the time. Maybe he got it wrong – or, for all we know, God may have been clever enough to present Himself differently to different cultures, to help them understand His message.
Every major religion (and most sects within those religions) has arisen from a charismatic teacher – whether it be a prophet claiming divine inspiration, or a messiah claiming divine origin. If we claim there is only one "right religion", then we are saying all the other prophets or messiahs were insane, and their revelations mere hallucinations. The problem is, how can we be 100% sure they were all mad, and the founder of our religion was the only sane one? The more reasonable explanation is that they were all genuine — they just saw things differently.
You cannot rely on scriptures. Scriptures are not historical documents. Even those that were written by the teacher himself are full of ambiguities and contradictions, and have to be interpreted, not read literally. You only have to look at the number of sects that arise within each religion, each disagreeing with each other on the interpretation of their Holy Book. In the case of Christianity, the Bible was not even written down until many years after the teacher had ceased preaching. If it were any other text, we would agree such a delay would lead to distortion and inaccuracy, and we cannot suddenly pretend that the mere human beings who passed on the teaching were magically infallible.
So, what logic can we use to judge which teacher got it right?
The answer is, that we cannot use logic. We can only choose whom we wish to believe whichever one calls to us. For that reason, we shouldn't condemn others who choose to believe differently.

Although he won the 2016 U.S. Championships, out ice skater Adam Rippon is reigniting a debate in the ice skating world about the value of artistry versus technical perfection.
Rippon, 26, won the figure skating competition despite taking a tumble during the routine. The Pennsylvanian took to Twitter this week to celebrate.
"I contemplated retiring a few seasons ago and, at times doubted what I thought I was capable of achieving," wrote Rippon, who had twice recieved the silver medal in the contest. "Through all my ups and downs I've learned that if you are true to yourself, work hard every day, set focus on your goals, and aren't afraid of your own potential you can do anything."
In an interveiw with NBC Sports, Rippon called the win a "dream come true," and when asked what message he was trying to send with his victory he said, "I'm like a witch, and you can't kill me. I keep coming back every year and every year I get better."
Watch Rippon speak with NBC Sports following his routine below:

Ben Wolfgram
Electrical Engineering
Class of 2006
Connect with Ben
"When I graduated, my experience abroad differentiated me in the marketplace. With my background at MSOE and Lübeck, I was able to find a career I love and work throughout the United States and Europe."
Many people love to travel. Ben Wolfgram '06 and his fiance Leah don't just love to travel, they live for it. Starting in March 2011, they took an 18-month sabbatical from their careers, visiting 30 countries in more than six continents: South and Central America, Southeast Asia, the Indochina Peninsula, China and Europe. They documented their adventures on their website, twowithoutaclue.com.
Ben's love of travel started on a missionary trip he took with his grandmother as a teenager. When he attended MSOE, he spent a year studying abroad in Lübeck, Germany. "The exchange program set my personal and professional life on a new trajectory. The curriculum developed for the exchange program was masterfully developed by MSOE and Lübeck, so when I returned to MSOE my senior year, I was in step with my fellow classmates. When I graduated, my experience abroad differentiated me in the marketplace. With my background at MSOE and Lübeck, I was able to find a career I love and work throughout the United States and Europe."
After graduating in 2006, Ben spent five years working in the automation field that allowed him to work in the U.S. and abroad. After returning from his 18-month adventure, he started his own automation engineering group called WE Automation, serving as president. He credits MSOE with helping to prepare him for his career. "The depth of knowledge and experience in a lab-based environment I received while attending MSOE was unparalleled. In addition, the small, close-knit classroom setting allowed me to develop professional relationships with MSOE professors."
Ben encourages MSOE students to consider studying abroad. "I absolutely would recommend the exchange experience to any MSOE student. If you do participate in an exchange program, learn the language. I use German EVERY day – I didn't expect that."
He also warns students to be prepared for the unexpected. "As an engineer, I like things to be predictable. Reality tells me life isn't predictable. The biggest moments in my life have all been unexpected. Prepare yourself by opening your mind to new ideas, partaking in the world around you, and working hard. When an unexpected opportunity presents itself, you'll be ready."

The Way is a film about many things. It is a story of four disparate characters, each on the ancient pilgrimage route of the Camino de Santiago de Compostella. It is a story of redemption, a story of discovery, a story of penance, a story of forgiveness, of loneliness and friendship, of revelation and unclarity. Each character has (or had) a reason for embarking on an 800 km journey, but none of the reasons was entirely clear, even for themselves. But for each of the characters, it was in some ways a journey of longing and hope. And in many ways, that is also the story of Advent.
While living in Egypt in 2006, Christmas came and went, and for one of the first times in my life it was without a lot of fanfare, commercialism, even decorations. Some of my friends remembered that the 25th was Christmas in the West, and wished me a Merry Christmas, but everything was very low key. Our Mennonite Central Committee staff got together for a short retreat, where we sang some carols, gave some gifts and ate some turkey, but even then the highlight was the social gathering. Life went back to normal on Monday.
It was also the first time in 23 Christmases I had been away from my closest family. Besides a brief telephone call (with a poor connection) and a few emails, I hadn't had the family connections that are a major part of Christmas at home. And if I'm entirely honest, it seems there was quite a hole left by removing all these things.
But, this void of sorts gave me an opportunity to reflect a little more on Advent. Advent is a time of waiting, a time of longing and of hope. When I squint my eyes and try to catch a glimpse of Christmases past, I remember waiting for presents, longing for that electric race-track (which I never did get) and hoping that Grandma would have good candy this year. Then, on or around Christmas Day, it was all over. Boxing Day is such an anticlimactic day. All the anticipation gone, without much to show for it.
Maybe it took a few thousand kilometers to separate me from all that. As I reflected on Advent and Christmas that year, it occurred to me that maybe Christmas is not meant to be the payoff at the end of our building excitement. It is merely the beginning. Monday morning reminds us that life is still difficult, we still have flaws, and our relationships aren't quite what we want them to be.
Life is difficult in Egypt, especially for the Christians I worked with there. Most people work at least two jobs just to make ends meet. Many are unemployed, which is even more difficult. Besides that, they face a corrupt and inefficient government that places many restrictions on Christians and churches. Add to that the daily grind of being a religious minority among a less than sympathetic Muslim majority. The events of the past year may have brought a lot of hope for change, but they have also intensified an already uncertain situation for Egyptians. Into lives like these Advent comes to mark the long wait for something better. It is an expression of longing for freedom – religious, political and economic. And it truly is a message of hope. "Peace on earth, goodwill among men" seems a long way off, but it is a promise to cling to.
The Camino de Santiago de Compostella has an ending at the cathedral tomb of St. James. For the pilgrim—or at least for the characters in this movie—the arrival at Santiago de Compostella is not the great climax of most epic journeys. It is a climax to be sure, but rather than great achievement it is the moment that each of the characters has finally shed all of the pretenses and burdens and pains that have slowly been unraveling along the way; they are at their most naked and honest, at last ready to see beyond themselves. The characters return to their lives and to the same problems that drove them to the pilgrimage, but they have seen something that has changed their very being.
So maybe a void is the best place to receive the Christ. He comes into it to wait with us, to walk with us, to offer us a glimpse of the Shalom we long for, and to give us something real to place our hope in. The advent of Christ marks not the triumphant solution to life's problems, but the beginning of hope for salvation.
Nelson Heppner has attended st. ben's for a few years now. In 2005-2006, he taught English in rural Egypt.

Suppose this will make media headlines ? One set of laws for Clinton one for us ?Seriously ?
Apparenly democrats like hillary have no regard for the natural habitat of storm drain rodents or the FACT that their dumping sewage takes Great Britain one step closer to submerging into the North Atlantic.
I think Hilary Clinton cares even less about America than she ever has about Great Britton . Americans everywhere , especially older ones , are pretty shocked about this campaign . No one I talk to however is very shocked about anything Hilary pulls .
They probably have to dump their sewage often and more than usual if they are using the bus to carry people around to vote maybe.
OMG , I never considered that ! You're right ! Dump station Next exit !
It's totally gross ,They have said , "we didn't know we were breaking any laws !" Sound familiar ?..........:-]

"This is going to linger because the surge in equities since the election was due to expectations of lower taxes and infrastructure spending," said Komal Sri-Kumar, president of Sri-Kumar Global Strategies.
Stocks hit their session highs Thursday after a CSPAN video from earlier in the month circulated on trading floors that some traders falsely interpreted as former FBI Director James Comey saying he was never pressured to end an FBI probe. In the video, however, Comey is answering a question specific to the U.S. Attorney General or "senior officials at the Department of Justice," not Trump.
"You take obstruction out of the equation, then impeachment becomes moot," said Andy Brenner, head of international fixed income securities at National Alliance Securities. "Hence risk on is running and vol is falling."
To be sure, the move was first seen in the currency market, with the U.S. dollar rising against the pound and the euro, though it was not initially clear whether the video's circulation is what triggered the broad move across markets.
"It's very, very fraught with risk right now because nobody knows what the truth is. It seems very binary. There's no guilt or we're looking at impeachment," said Boris Schlossberg, managing director of foreign exchange strategy for BK Asset Management.
Schlossberg said that it was the CSPAN video recirculating that triggered the move higher, but he did not agree with the sentiment that the video would help clear Trump.
Treasurys eased slightly paring gains made on Wednesday's session. The benchmark 10-year note yield rose to 2.23 percent and the short-term two-year note yield advanced to 1.266 percent.
Treasurys staged their second-biggest rally of the year Wednesday, as expectations faded that Trump can get tax reform or fiscal stimulus through Congress this year, or maybe even next year.
In economic news, weekly jobless claims totaled 232,000, below the expected 240,000. Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Federal Reserve business index rose to 38.8 in May from 22.0 in April.

SYDNEY, June 23 (Reuters) - Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull on Friday challenged a surprise decision by the state of South Australia to impose its own tax on banks, suggesting the move may hamper investment and drive down employment in the country's fifth biggest state.
"When a state imposes higher business taxes within its own jurisdiction, is that going to drive investment, support, jobs within that state or is in fact going to make it less competitive?" asked Turnbull when asked about the tax by reporters.
South Australia announced a tax worth a combined A$370 million ($279 million) on five major lenders in its budget on Thursday, generating opposition from the industry which incurred a new A$6.2 billion tax in the Federal budget last month.

Strawberries galore in gorgeous Virginia!
Delaplane Travel Blog› entry 13 of 13 › view all entries
May 24th, 2008 – by: eurowestgirl
Now the festival isn't much to write home about. In fact, the highlight of the festival--strawberries--are from California! Can you believe that? Vendors had lots of greasy food on hand, as well as strawberries offered six different ways, from a la mode to ice cream topped with whipped cream to shortcakes to whatever you heart desires.
We didn't bring the right shoes to hike, but maybe next time we'll spend the day hiking the trails in Sky Meadow State Park. The area is undeveloped and basically pristine. So pristine, in fact, that the park offers monthly star gazing nights. Amateur astronomers, guided by an astronomer from the Smithsonian, bring their telescopes to show attendees celestial sights.
This is what I'll miss about living on the East Coast. I feel like my heart is still in Virginia at times, and hopefully one day I'll come back and make my home in the gentle Virginia hills. Once a Virginian, always a Virginian.

Employment Policy Foundation: Why Unions Are Declining
June 1, 1998
U.S. unions have suffered sizable membership losses over the past four decades, and 1997 continued this trend with a drop of nearly 160,000. Even public sector unionization -- which expanded during the 1970s, helping cushion the drop in total union membership -- declined for a third consecutive year in 1997. In 1997, public sector unions accounted for two-thirds of the total decrease in union membership.
Researchers say the two most important reasons for unions' decline are changes in the economy and the demographics of the workforce. The most important demographic change has been the increasing share of workers who are women.
- Research indicates women may be less likely to join a union because they are more likely to work part-time or intermittently.
- Since 1960, women's labor force participation rate has risen by 22.1 percentage points, and the proportion of married women with children who work soared from 28 percent in 1960 to 70 percent in 1996.
- Over the period 1950 to 1990, women in the workplace accounted for 19.6 percent of the decline in unions' share of workers.
Changes in the economy have also contributed to unions' decline. Since 1960, employment in the service sector has grown by 182 percent, while employment in the traditionally unionized manufacturing sector has increased only 19 percent.
Other reasons contributing to the decline in union membership are the historically low level of union organization efforts, and employment legislation that makes it easier for individual workers to deal with problems in the workplace.

Advances in the Study of Behavior: v. 29
Peter J.B. Slater , Jay S. Rosenblatt , Charles T. Snowdon , Timothy J. Roper
Editura: Academic Press Inc
Advances in the Study of Behavior, Volume 29 continues to serve scientists across a wide spectrum of disciplines. Focusing on new theories and research developments with respect to behavioral ecology, evolutionary biology, and comparative psychology, these volumes foster cooperation and communications in these dense fields. The aim of Advances in the Study of Behavior remains as it has been since the series began: to serve the increasing number of scientists who are engaged in the study of animal behavior by presenting their theoretical ideas and research to their colleagues and to those in neighboring fields. We hope that the series will continue its contribution to the development of the field, as its intended role was phrased in the Preface to the first volume in 1965. Since that time, traditional areas of animal behavior have achieved new vigor by the links they have formed with related fields and by the closer relationship that now exists between those studying animal and human subjects.

Distributed Localization in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks
Localization has newly received research interest due to the success of the emerging Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technology. This interest is expected to grow further with the proliferation of wireless sensor network applications such as medicine, military, transport. In this context routing, protocols and technologies of communication on those wireless area are enormously applied to sensor networks in order to improve the quality of service and communication. Related to this paper, the authors present a distributed algorithm for localization of nodes in a discrete model of a random ad hoc communication network.

A United States based centre for the promotion of organic food and farming has released a report on obesity in the United States and proposes ways in which organic food can help reverse the obesity spiral.
The Organic Centre report presents "up-to-date statistics' on the magnitude of the challenge faced by the US. The report found about one-third of adults 20 to 74 years of age in the United States are obese (Body Mass Index ? 30) and another third are overweight (BMI 25.0 to 29.9).
Obesity and weight problems rising rapidly among children
"One of the most worrisome recent developments is that overweight and obesity (levels are) rising rapidly among children, setting the stage for far more cases of Type 2 diabetes, and cases that strike earlier in life, leaving more time for the insidious complications of diabetes to erode well being and drive up health care costs," says the centre which aims to generate credible, peer reviewed scientific information and to communicate the verifiable benefits of organic farming and products to society.
If current obesity trends continue, by the year 2030, government scientists expect that over 85% of adults will be overweight or obese, and over one-half will be obese, the report found.
Diabetes cases doubled over decade
"The CDC projects that the rate of new diabetes cases nearly doubled over the last decade, reaching 9.1 new cases per 1,000 persons between 2005 and 2007."
The report highlights six mechanisms or ways that organic food and farming can help reverse the damaging upward spiral in overweight, obesity, and diabetes.
*Organic food promotes healthy patterns of cell division and differentiation, and lays the groundwork for normal endocrine system regulation of blood sugars, lipids, energy intake, and immune system functions.
* Organic food establishes and helps sustain taste-based preferences in the child for familiar nutrient-dense, flavorful foods.
* It largely eliminates dietary exposures to approximately 180 pesticides known to disrupt the development or functioning of the endocrine system.
* Possibly helps trigger or reinforce a sense of satiety, or fullness, thereby reducing excessive caloric intake at the end of satisfying meals.
* Lessens or limits the cellular and genetic damage done by reactive oxygen species (so-called free radicals), and in this way reduce the risk of diabetes and other diseases rooted in inflammation (arthritis, cardiovascular disease) and rapid cell growth (cancer).
* Slow, and perhaps even reverse certain neurological aspects of the aging process, leading to better memory and retention of cognitive skills.
The centre drew upon over one-hundred fifty scientific studies for its report, and to formulate the six mechanisms through which it sees organic food and farming undermining the factors leading to increasing obesity and diabetes.
However, the report acknowledges there is essentially no science exploring or documenting what may be the most important mechanism of all in the contribution of organics to changing eating patterns - that purchasing organic food is often the lead in to a change in attitude to food and health.
"Reams of consumer research shows that the conscious decision by an individual to first seek out and purchase organic food is motivated by a personal desire to improve one's own health and/or the health of family members.
"The decision to buy organic food requires a personal commitment, a conscious act, to try and re-orient a person's relationship with food in ways that will lead to improved well being."
The report said forging a new relationship with food is the critical first step that every dietitian, doctor, educator, and concerned friend is searching for as they interact with a person headed toward or already contending with overweight and diabetes.
"We see anecdotal evidence in the literature and consumer surveys that the decision to start purchasing organic food is often the first of an incremental series of steps that change in progressively deeper ways a person's attitudes and behaviors toward food, diet, and health."
Even if it reaches only a segment of society, this is a trajectory of change worth supporting in every way possible, since the exact nature and the order of steps taken by people who choose to establish new, healthier relationships with food matters less than steady, and for some, even urgent and sustained progress along the path, the report concludes.

swats, spankings---if you use

some will find this odd, as I am one of the cohosts on the AP forum... but...
I spank on the bottom. I do not hit or tap or slap on the hand.
I do not think it disrespects them. I do not think it shows that I can't control my anger and find a different way to get them to listen. It is a disciplinary tool. It is not the one I use for every little misbehaviour.
We don't tend to spank until around 20 months to age 2. Redirection works pretty well. My oldest got spanks on the early end of that, and my younger two got spanks on the older end of that. My younger two are more complaint by nature, and are not boundary pushers.
We spank for defiance, verbal disrespect of mom or dad, and lying. We do corner standing for time outs, and we do "go to your room" for having tantrums or needing to cool off. My oldest is more defiant and disrespectful, and rarely just plain old disobeys. so she gets spanks more often than time outs. My middle one is 4, nd she gets more general time outs and fewer spanks, because she is not disrespectful or defiant very often. My little one doesnt do much wrong yet. I think DH has spanked her one time because she was defiant, he told her to come here or stop doing something and she said NO and did it again. But that's the only time I can think of.
So, there are my thoughts.
I do see how a child would learn to hit others if his hand were slapped, so we havent ever done that. I do not see my child spanking other children after being spanked on the butt for discipline. I do not see that teaching them to hit.
I am an anomaly among APers in that I have zero problem with spanking as a disciplinary tool.
Thank you BAM for my signature!!

Like every generation before them, millennials endure the scorn of their amnestic elders with obliviousness and eyerolls. I'll concede that bitterly railing about "kids these days" is the prerogative of anyone over 45 forced to listen to Miley Cyrus, but I truly think intergenerational amity is a worthy and plausible goal—and I'd advise all those baffled by millennial bullshit to start by looking at the margins of youth culture, rather than their commercial representatives, who are obviously appointed by old millionaires anyway.
Photographer Poem Baker's captivating series,Hymns from the Bedroom, shows a gorgeous array of young people—some bending gender, some subverting conventions, some simply looking beautiful. Her subjects are her friends, and she captures them with a vulnerability that reveals the intimacy of the shoot—an informal affair where she might snap only a few unpretentious candids before putting away the camera. From her site:
Hymns from the Bedroom is a personal journal of friends and people I've encountered whilst wandering around London. Most of whom are creative twenty-something's on the threshold of their dreams and ambitions, ranging from performance artists, musicians, actors and fashion designers to strippers, transvestites and those who live on the fringes of society.

Falling in love has never been so sweet!
John and Kari have spent the last few weeks of their lives falling madly in love for each other, faster than either of them ever dreamed could be possible.
A romantic courtship led John to run to Kari's bedside at the hospital when pregnancy complications occurred, and the checkup resulted in a wedding that happened at the hospital! Their untraditional marriage sparked some concern within John's family; his conservative minded mother begged that the couple be wed publically, so that friends and family would be able to join in the celebrations of the couple's joyous union. Kari and John agreed, and are now working day and night with the help of John's parents, to make their wedding a wondrous event that reflects the love they have for each other. But John's past comes knocking, and things get ugly, quickly.
An ex flame proves obsessive and abusive, and claims John is a liar and a cheater who was actually betrothed to her. Kari is shocked and scared; John insists none of this is true. He tells Kari the ex-lover is obsessed with him, and is lying. He promises that he never loved the woman, much less promised himself to her. But things grow worse and worse, and more and more complex.
The obsessive ex-lover not only threatens to drive Kari and John apart- she threatens to end their lives, and after a dreadful display, the couple is wracked with fear. It seems that nothing can be done to keep the ex-lover away, and Kari and John become more endangered with each and every day.
Will Kari and John be able to pull through the danger and come out of the storm with their love still intact? Or will this be the end of a short love story, destined for disaster?
