Belize: E-Commerce
Like many offshore jurisdictions, Belize has ambitions to be a leading e-commerce location, and it was early in passing legislation to enable and regulate internet gambling. This has been successful in attracting some operators, although the tax regime isn't all that wonderful.
In order to strengthen the country's telecommunications infrastructure, the government in 2003 moved to increase competition in the sector by allowing Innovative Communication Corporation, LLC to acquire a controlling stake in Belize Telecommunications Ltd (now known as Belize Telemedia Limited, or BTL), the national telephone company of Belize whose monopoly expired earlier that year from existing owners Carlisle Holdings Limited.
However, the telecoms development strategy hit a setback when, in February 2005, the Belizean government seized back control of BTL from ICC after accusing the firm of failing to pay more then USD57 million due to it under the sale agreement. A complex international legal dispute ensued, and after failing to obey a March 11, 2005 ruling by a US District Court ordering Belize to restore control of BTL to ICC, the government of then Prime Minister Said Musa was on 31 March, 2005, found in contempt of court and fined USD50,000 a day.
On August 31 2005, ICC filed a Memorandum of Law in Miami restoring ICC's Jeffrey Prosser as Chairman of the Board of Directors of BTL.
In 2006, however, the court rescinded its ruling against Belize, and the government reportedly attempted to re-sell shares in BTL to British peer Lord Ashcroft, who had previously owned them.
Despite the ongoing legal dispute over the ownership of BTL between its two dominant shareholders, (Michael Ashcroft and ICC), the Belize Senate approved on May 29, 2007, the controversial Belize Telecommunications Undertaking (Belize Telecommunications Limited Operations) Vesting Act, which transferred all of the goodwill, properties, assets, obligations and rights of Belize Telecommunications Limited to a new entity known as Belize Telemedia Limited.
On August 25, 2009, by virtue of an Act of Legislature of Belize, the Government of Belize became the owner of the majority of the shares in Belize Telemedia Limited. The remaining shares are owned by 908 small shareholders.
Prices for Internet access are on a sliding scale and are expensive at approximately USD50 for 128K and USD250 for 2MB. Satellite providers do exist but BTL is considered as having a practical monopoly on internet service. VOIP services including Skype are blocked by BTL. Addressing a business forum in November 2011, Prime Minister Dean Barrow assured his audience that VOIP "is coming".
The Prime Minister announced in April 2013: "At the end of this month, tomorrow, BTL will enable full and open access to VOIP based services and applications in Belize. ... This will mean the use of high speed internet services including DSL, wireless internet and mobile internet and will mean that there won't be any restrictions whatsoever on Voice Over Internet Protocol. ... Technology is moving so quickly that we would have been playing a loosing game if we had continued trying to restrict VOIP."
In 2005, BTL began rolling out new wireless internet services, starting with the launch of the Internet HotSpot service in June that year. This increased internet accessibility for business travellers and tourists by providing high-speed wireless access in large hotels, airports and other transit points. Later in the same month, BTL expanded its wireless internet coverage to areas outside of the coverage of its wired DSL service.
In 2000 the Government encouraged the opening of a private e-commerce park, opened by Datapro International Inc in the Belize City Export Processing Zone (EPZ) thereby guaranteeing freedom from taxes to incoming dotcoms.
The park, the only one in the region, has successfully stimulated Belize's e-business sector. It has generated over 650 full time jobs so far and is growing rapidly.
Office space is being offered in 1,000 to 2,000 sq. ft. units in individual or shared buildings equipped with all utilities on a 24 hour guarded gated compound: pre-installed fiber optic cable, fiber optic link, satellite communication center, and support facilities are available. The park has six buildings already built with a total capacity of over 100,000 sq.ft., fully airconditioned. The park's private operator provides its own long distance service independently from the local carrier, 1-800 telephone service and a technical training center. The location is only minutes from the International Airport and about 15 minutes from the commercial center of Belize, Belize City.
Companies in an Export Processing Zone benefit from a highly attractive tax and customs regime. An on-site Customs Office guarantees rapid delivery of incoming goods. Bandwidth is available from 64K to T1 at rates between USD950 and USD14,200. These are all-inclusive costs including the installation of underground fiber optic cables with direct satellite connection.
For on-line betting and gaming operators, a particularly attractive feature of the park is the coupling of the IBC regime with that of the Export Processing Zone regime, a result which legally bypasses the need for licencing under the Computer Wagering Licensing Act. The Attorney General has confirmed that once an e-business is validly established through the park's official attorneys Glenn D. Godfrey & Co., (www.offshoreservices.com) there is no need for any other license.
Although the E-Park is evidence of progress, local firm the Belize Development Trust says that e-commerce will struggle to develop outside the Zone: 'There should be about 4 different, or maybe more, local competitive telephone systems, with regulatory sharing agreements and price sharing for using each other's installations in an overlapping manner. There also should be at the current state of progress, about 100 local ISP services around the nation using the telephone services of the 4 telecommunications suppliers.'
In November 2007, The Ministry of National Development signed an agreement with Infotel International Limited, granting them Export Processing Zone (EPZ) status to establish a call centre operation and ICT business in Belize City.
Under the investment plan, Infotel will provide data and voice processing services, including telemarketing, customer support, direct marketing, e-mail and website hosting, as well as other call centre services. Infotel has already established firm business relations with a number of international companies through its marketing alliance with Strategic Link Consulting Ltd, which operates out of Atlanta in the USA.
The approval for Infotel to operate in Belize is part of a new thrust by the government of Belize to expand the EPZ programme to include ICT companies, especially since they create higher income jobs for Belizeans. At the time of the agreement, two local companies managed ICT parks and a total of five ICT companies were operating as EPZs in these parks. These companies include Ready Call Ltd., an international call centre operation, and Pinnacle BST, an ICT application service, call centre support and software consulting company. It is expected that employment at these ICT companies with EPZ status would increase from less than 1,000 to over 2,000 within two years.
In April 2008, Belize Telemedia Limited announced that it was replacing the telephone equipment in six rural areas, with new state-of-the-art telecommunication switches that will provide High Speed Internet and many other services to business and residential customers. The project was part of the company's commitment to provide a more reliable telecommunications network across the country, ensuring uniformity in telecommunication services throughout Belize. The project was initiated in November 2007 with residents of August Pine Ridge benefiting from the first installation.
In a press release on 23 March, 2010, Belize Telemedia announced that: "DigiCell service was recently expanded to Sittee River Village in Southern Belize. Residents of this area are now able to benefit from the many exciting services, innovative features and special deals being offered to DigiCell customers.
This expansion is another step in the Company's goal to continuously improve and extend DigiCell service throughout Belize. In 2009 the Company completed the installation of the GSM 850 1900 MHz network which significantly improved DigiCell coverage, capacity and services in many areas of the country. Then, to furtherexpand the new GSM Network and provide even greater coverage, new cell sites have been installed in Ladyville, Bermudian Landing, Gallon Jug, Progresso, Pomona, Big Falls and now Sittee River.
While residents of Sittee River enjoy Belize's premier mobile cellular service, customers in Sarteneja, August Pine Ridge and many other rural communities can look forward to having access to DigiCell service in their villages as additional cell sites are scheduled for installation over the next few months. This is great news for all DigiCell customers as they will be able to use their DigiCell phones in these new areas, thereby improving their freedom of communication while traveling throughout Belize."

North Fork of the Payette

Considered as a warning or challenge, experts name the North Fork of the Payette River in west-central Idaho one of the most grueling whitewater runs in North America. From the town of Smiths Ferry to Banks, the Payette drops 1700 feet in 16 miles. Paralleling Route 55, this Class V run, with 20 named rapids, tests all that paddle it.

Breaking – Arizona Religious Freedom Law Vetoed by Gov. Brewer
Late Wednesday evening Gov. Jan Brewer vetoed Senate bill 1062 that would have expanded and clarified protection for individuals and businesses over their religious rights.
Late Wednesday evening Gov. Jan Brewer vetoed Senate bill 1062 that would have expanded and clarified protection for individuals and businesses over their religious rights.
Immediately for fans of Seattle in the Pacific Northwest, they're wondering if Seattle can become only the 8th team in Super Bowl history to repeat.
Officials say it could wind up being the least expensive Super Bowl since 2002.
According to the official Twitter account for The Simpsons, the longest running American television sitcom predicted the score of Super Bowl 48 nearly 8 years ago.
As reporters fought their way up to Peyton Manning's booth to yell out questions at the Denver Broncos quarterback during Tuesday's Super Bowl media day, one member of the media, admittedly a huge Manning fan, caught his attention quickly when she put in a request...
The Super Bowl is usually the highest-rated single television broadcast of the year -- so the program that airs right afterwards typically follows suit and rides the game's coattails to big ratings.
It would be the first time in history, but it may happen if Mother Nature makes Giants Stadium unplayable.
You may recognize her. Not just because she is from the Tri-Cities, but she also had an entry in our 12th Man Showdown Photo Contest to win tickets to the Seattle Seahawks NFC Divisonal game against the New Orleans Saints. Not to take anything away from Braiden Sanders, our contestant who actually won those tickets, but McKenzie Brown was very close to taking home the prize herself...and rightfully so! Not only did she shave half of her head, but she got a 12th Man themed tattoo on her newly shaved skull! She did this to win OUR contest, but came up a few votes short.
She is now going for a much bigger prize in a much bigger contest - Super Bowl tickets from Ellen!
Not every Super Bowl legend goes to the Hall of Fame. Some Super Bowl players become school teachers, businessmen or radio hosts after their NFL days have ended...
As the Hawks head towards a Super Bowl collision in New York with the Denver Broncos, it appears there are mixed results for how the rest of the country views Seattle.

Lomita motel is like any other motel I stayed at. Price is good for the room and service you receive. The motel is very clean (both inside and outside). If you like quite place to stay then this motel is the place to stay in. It's also very safe. I went to 6 different motels before i got to this motel and the frondesk manager was nice enough to show me the room before i take it. Some motel manger before this one did not even wanted me to see the room; i wonder what they were hiding. Maid came everyday to clean my room. Grocery store and few restaurants are close by within walking distance. Room has a TV, refrigerator, microwave, queen size bed, it also has rack and armoire to put your cloths and if you need internet the front desk gives you a password for wireless internet.
Only thing the room was missing was the phone. I guess since everyone has a cell phone now days it did not worth it for them to put it in, but if you need phone then you are out of luck.
Over all I loved this place and next time I come back I will definitely stay here.

Rapper "The Game" has been arrested after allegedly throwing a punch at an off-duty police officer at a pickup basketball game.
The hip-hop star, whose real name is Jayceon Terrell Taylor, surrendered at the department's Hollywood Division at noon Monday, a Los Angeles Police Department spokesman said.
A video that purports to show the altercation between 35-year-old Taylor and the Los Angeles officer was posted online by TMZ.com.
Taylor was booked on suspicion of making criminal threats and posted $50,000 bail.
A photo posted to his Instagram account on Monday shows the 35-year-old crouching under the LAPD station sign with the caption "waiting for my Uber" and "lol #WinnersCircle." Days before, he posted a photo of himself in a hot tub with the message "relaxing in the sauna before I turn myself in..... But what you gone do when you get outta jail... I'm gonna have some fun."

text: Hello all, this is my first real guide to, well, anything. I hope you all like it and find it useful. If you have suggestions or wanna add something, don't be shy! If your looking at this guide, then you have taken the first step into the odyssey that is the Android Rooting scene. Tis a fascinating journey, one I hope many of you learn from. All right, to start, I DID NOT MAKE ANY OF THE CONTENT IN THE LINKS. I just though a one stop-shop for your rooting needs would be mighty useful. I am not responsible for what you do to your phone, and get used to hearing that, because its gonna be all over the place. This process, its a bit tricky. But with a little know-how, you can get it done in no time at all. (well, maybe not that quick) But I don't think the actual process is hard, just finding all the information necessary and the components like the Android SDK are a little time consuming. If these things sound worthwhile to you, head on down below here to get started. Just remember: You are responsible for what happens to your phone. I was able to complete the process without a problem, and like I said, the setup is more time consuming than actually rooting. I timed the actual rooting process for sh**s and giggles, took me 5 minutes, and literally, its just typing a couple of commands into a command prompt, which is pretty easy if you follow the guide in the link at the bottom of this page. So consider the risks and the benefits, and maybe you'll find that rooting is for you. Did I forget about that link? I sure did... How To: Root the HTC MyTouch Slide (Exploid Method) (Updated 09.28.10) | TheUnlockr NOTICE: Make sure you do a factory reset of all of your data on the phone. Its in the settings. If you don't, then there's just gonna be a ton of space and data the ROM wont be able to access. Sorry, but those are the rules of the trade. If you want root, you gotta wipe your phone. And just to clarify, you wont lose any application you paid for, you can just re-download those. But your gonna have to hunt down all the free ones, and yes, this is a tremendous pain. I would recommend making a list of all your apps. BTW: When its giving you the command line prompts to type, you will type the * you see, the only thing you do not is stuff (in parentheses like this). Matter of fact, you will type EVERYTHING it tells you to, character for character, unless, like I said, it is in (parentheses) AND you do not have to flash the ROM it tells you to, in fact, do everything it says, but instead of the Stock ROM w/ Root, do it with this ROM instead CyanogenMod-6.1 for MT3G Slide - V6.1.0-RC2 (11/21/2010) - CyanogenMod Forum All your gonna have to do is BEFORE YOU LEAVE CLOCKWORK, FLASH THE gapps THE SITE GIVES YOU. So you'll flash the ROM, then RIGHT away, with out leaving, flash the gapps. Trust me, I did this, it felt weird, but the gapps is your Market, those things. You CANNOT go back and reflash em. It sounds scary, but take it from me: it aint. Here's a video of the flashing process. Because I love all of you. Go to 7:07 if you wanna see what your gonna have to do. Homeboy. Go straight to 7:07 at the video. It will look pretty much the same as your menu in clockwork, just the colors and the icon in the background will be different. BTW, the ROM I gave you is not the only one out there, it just happens to be the one I use, and its been more stable for me than the version Cyanogen (the guy who made the ROM) made and calls "Stable". This ROM just seems to be... easier and more trustworthy to start off. Need more advice, or need help faster than you can get here? (o nooes!) This is a huge community of Hax0rs, many of which can help you. You can even find a different version of the root guide I gave you, but I would still recommend that one, as the guide I gave you guides you from setup to finish. HTC Espresso: myTouch 3G Slide - xda-developers This is a forum straight from the developer of the ROM I gave you. These people can help you out too. HTC Slide - CyanogenMod Forum Questions about rooting, ROMs, or the various terms related to them? Then check this out! General ROM FAQ - Android Forums Wanna change your ROM? Then look at what I found Props go to RavenWulf from XDA Developers. 1. download ROM to your computer and put it on your SD card without unzipping it. 2. go to market and download ROM Manager (not required if you have it) 3. open app (ROM Manager) 4. select "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" and tap myTouch Slide 5. select "Reboot into Recovery". Phone will power down and boot itself in to recovery. (when in recovery use volume button to scroll up and down, trackpad is enter and back arrow is back.) 6. select wipe data/factory reset 7. under "advanced" select "wipe Dalvik Cache" 8. go back to main menu 9. select "install zip from sdcard" 10. select "choose zip from sdcard" 11. scroll through list till you find your ROM and select it 12. after it is done installing go back to main menu and select "reboot system now" If you need some reassurance that this method does indeed work, here is a post from XDA with the same steps, I just happen to think that the method above is much simpler to comprehend. Its what I used. Anyways, here's the link for the other guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754020 Did you get root, made a backup, and then started deleting system apps and you want to get them back? Here's how! (Credit goes to Kelmar. Buy him a cookie) Take the nandroid from your SD card and copy it to your desktop computer. It should be in the form of a .zip file. Using winrar (free trial HERE) double click on the zip file. DO NOT EXTRACT ANYTHING. Navigate to /system/app and drag and drop the .apks to your SD card. Once on your SD card use a file manager such as "Root Explorer" to copy the .apks from the SD card back into the /system/app folder. Ever heard of a2sd, a2ext, or something like that, but you had no idea what is is? Well, now you do! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743489 Go to post #7 for an explanation that will answer any question you might have about a2sd And here's where you would go if you want to do it. It has a link with the package you need, and if you installed CyanogenMod like I said to, all you have to do is flash the package, and follow the terminal instruction's at the bottom of the first post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=791795 Here's a tip for winners: once you achieve root, use ROM Manager to make backups, and do it often. When I used some ROMs, I would find that my mobile data would just... stop working. That is until I restored from my handy dandy backup. I would suggest making a backup on maybe like a weekly basis, or if your really daring, one every two weeks. I would strongly suggest making an investment in a bigger SD card too, but thats just me. If you want me to help you out, if I need to clarify something, or if you have a suggestion, PLEASE, do not hesitate to say something! If rooting seems too daunting of a task, think it over, and if the benefits outweigh the risks to you, then by all means, go for it. Shoot for the stars, and you just might get there one day.

Maggiano's - St. Louis Ratings and Reviews
Once again, we enjoyed our annual Thanksgiving meal with you (year #11 for us), and as always, the food was delicious. We have never had any negatives to share until this year; our waiter was very polite and friendly but seemed inexperienced and was not always efficient in getting our food to us; in fact, we never did receive another bowl of creamed corn that we had requested. He did bring four desserts for our party of five though. From our observation, he was responsible for four tables and a booth which seemed overwhelming for him (though I believe he was genuinely trying to give his best effort to accommodate everyone). I'm not one to complain, but we have been spoiled with outstanding service in previous years. And, I don't want to be critical of this year's waiter because I think with time and more experience, he will be quite capable of offering the service we have become accustomed to at Maggiano's. This one snafu will certainly not keep us from attending next year, but we look forward to a return of your excellent service that has spoiled us. (On a side note, I love all the Christmas decorations and the music - my kind of place!!!!)
Reservation was for 7:30 for a party of 10 but only 6 showed. I arrived on time but we did not receive food until 9:15! Seating was terrible in a busy aisle where 3 of us kept getting bumped or brushed. Server(Matt) kept forgetting items & non attentive! Food was bland!
Have not been to Maggiano's in probably 7-8 years; I always remember having a good meal there and once we left this past Saturday, wasn't sure why it took me so long to come back. The service was great; we had a reservation and despite 4 of the 6 in our party had not arrived yet, it was really refreshing to have the hostess seat us (and not have to tell us they had to wait until everyone in our party arrived). So, my fiance and I were able to sit at our table and enjoy a cocktail until everyone else arrived. Our waiter was great. The food was really good. And we left thinking we should come back sooner rather than later.
Service was not as good as usual. Bare minimum. Forgot cookies for special occasion after asking before taking orders for food. No offer of refills for drinks or water or warmup on coffee. We had to ask for cookies and then there was a long delay. We were about to give up and leave when we saw her on the way with the cookies. We visit Maggiano's regularly for special occasions in our family because we all like the atmosphere and the food. We notice when something is missing and unfortunately, there was no hint of enthusiasm to provide good service. I don't know if it was lack of experience or not being a good fit for this particular job.
The food is good. My favorite is chicken and spinach manicotti. The house salad and bread are always great too. The service was not so good. The waitress had more tables than she could handle with one of them being a large party. This is the second time that we have had not so good service. This has been very disappointing because both times have been for a special occasion
Put the four of us in a wobbly side table; then brought our appetizer out with our main course - the waiter sent our main course back to the kitchen so we could eat our app; but later when they brought out our main courses it was apparent they had been under a heat lamp - hot on top and cold on the bottom. Our waiter was semi-attentive and got only the minimal tip. Next time we'll go to a good Hill restaurant.
Saturday 11/4 we brought a large party in to celebrate my daughters confirmation . My parents both have special dietary concerns and they were accommodated spectacularly . Not only did the manager come over to talk to them and make sure he understood what they needed, he had the chefs come out and speak with them. They also make dish recommendations based on their tastes and desires.
Our server was very friendly and extremely attentive. Overall we had an excellent experience.
Maggiano's consistently delivers time and again. If you're looking for good Italian food that tastes like fine dinning without worrying about breaking the bank, this is your spot. Whether its a night out with friends or a date night for you and your significant other, Magliano's is a guaranteed win!
Have dined here several times for lunch and dinner so recommended it for a East Coast friend who came in town to visit her son for parents' weekend at Wash. U. Their family has traveled worldwide so I thought this would be a good choice. Food is usually excellent, but this time the veal piccata was a bit over-cooked and burned a bit on the outside. I think the side dish could be something other than spaghetti - boring and not that good. All three of our "different" salads were excellent. We were seated upstairs which made the noise level "moderate" as it is very noisy downstairs. I was impressed by the staff who, we observed, had to walk up and down a long flight of stairs carrying trays. Asked the man standing at the top of the stairs, monitoring, why they didn't have a dumb waiter and he replied, "That's why our staff is thin and can eat a lot of pasta!" Cute, but "flip" answer. Our wait staff was very accommodating and pleasant, but I wonder how long they keep their staff. Certainly hope they're well compensated and make really good tips.

1. The time and space don't exist for you because you are absolute. You are time and space and yet beyond it.2. There are infinite parallel universes overlapping on the surface of consciousness. You don't inhabit a universe but multiverses even as a personality. Events which happen are out there and their perceiver arises only in perceiving. There is no perceiver independent from perception. Only life exists which is sum of infinite events. Death, life and rebirth are one. All events are on screen projected by your light and exist only for a split second so all beings from smallest to biggest are merely shadows. 3. You're absolutely free as everyone else. Elements act on elements in nature. Nature, mind, consciousness are all names for active Self. You're that Self and yet beyond all this free from contents of all types. 4. You're never bound–even when you imagine you're–neither you're free–nature and universe is conglomeration of opposites and their harmony. 5. You're infinitude of infinites NOW. There is no perfection in future–you merely assume a goal and start chasing it. This is nature's doing. 6. Bondage, yearning, desire, evil and good all exist in nature–in universal mind and differ from situation to situation—there is no good, bad or ugly in absolute. 7. All that you ever wanted to be you already are. Identification with personality makes you believe that you are merely a personality, an identity which is to be protected from things and forces external to it–the Truth is–you're the only reality there is–hence past, present and future–including all identities exist in you and you're in all identities. 8. Anything you ever imagined is possible—anything you will ever imagine is possible–is already happening in another universe and all infinite universe draw their being from you. 9. Every element discovered by you is as perfect as you're–no higher or lower existence as far as reality is concerned—every situation is a dream witnessed by a prime mover who witnesses infinite universes moving through surface of consciousness. 10. Reality is not the reward of being eligible, fit or training—you're always reality because reality alone is–which is both indescribable and indefinable–being beyond imagination, words and understanding. All that you understand is a pointer to your very own Self. There is no higher or lower self. 11. For waking state merely brings similar patterns as dream state–there is no difference between waking or dreaming. Sleeping is same as awakening and you are beyond all states because all states are made possible by you. You're the proof of all isms, ideologies, sciences, knowledge and beings. Nothing could prove your being and be independent of you as well.

Death and Rebirth!
You die every moment to be reborn,
The threads of memory are sewn into a rag,
Which seems like a continuous persona,
The threads are hollow and so is the rag which you carry around shoulders,
The real you is born every moment and Now is its mantra,
There is no tantra vaster than that of memories, fears, worries and expectations,
If you clasp the rock-solid reality it slips through, Continue reading "Death and Rebirth!"
Who thinks himself separate from the world,
Let him help the world,
Projecting a question, and an answer,
You play with yourself,
The only thing worth knowing is this: Continue reading "Reality!"

|"Sleep tight...don't let the bed bugs bite", "Don't sweat the small stuff", "I will always have your back"
This memorial website was created in loving memory of David Anthony Farias, Jr. a.k.a. "Bubba" ~ One of the Angels Among Us...his Light of Love will forever shine in out hearts!
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in my heart)
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
~e. e. cummings
"5 years.... how it could it be?
I miss you so much.."
"Because my heart never stops missing you. I love you so very much Bubba. I haven't found that place yet... where I am okay with losing you. I don't think i ever will. If I knew you were gonna leave, I would have made you stay. A sister never stops needing her brother. xoxo"
"Yet another holiday season has gone by without you! Love you and miss you so much my son!!"
"Just thinking of you and missing you...as always! You are forever in my heart...love you Today, Tomorrow and Always my Beautiful Boy!!"
Today of all days you are in my thoughts
and although you are no longer of this world
you continue to live and breathe in the hearts and memories
of the one's who loved you dearly and those who's lives you touched with your infectious presence andcharismatic demeanor...
I weep as I think to myself that I will never see your smile as the one
you chose to love forever slowly walks down the isle to you
or the look of profound proudness upon your face as I meet your firstborn child...
For if anyone deserved that happiness it was you David...
I will forever cherish the memories of the happy boy who loved me to chase him around the yard or asked to ride upon my shoulders
as he laughed and laughed...
Continue your work for the Lord of lords soaring on gossamer wings
Until the day we meet again...
know that I would give anything to have you here if even for a moment
But until that day know you are loved and missed more than any words can say...
Luv you always buddy...Uncle Steven"
"Thinking of you now and always, we all love and miss you Bubba.... now and forever!"
"I'll stand by the sea and wait for you my brother, meet me there when my days are through."
"Happy Birthday to you! Wish you were here so we could all celebrate together. Not a day goes by that you are far from my thoughts...miss you so much!!"
"Dear God how I miss you...so much...every single day!! Love you Always and Forever!! <3"
"Just thinking of you and missing you this holiday season as always! Love you Forever & Always my Beautiful boy!! <3"
"Thinking of & missing you, as always! I know you're doing great things in Heaven, but I sure wish we could have had more time with you here. The heartache never goes away, but knowing someday we will all see you again keeps us going here on earth until we are called back home!!!"
"Sweet Bubba...we all gathered together last night in your honor I can honestly say it never gets any easier as the years pass, I tried to not cry, but I ended up crying anyways because I looked at your beautiful picture and once again I missed seeing your bright sweet smile at our family gatherings and it is still hard knowing your not going to be there but I know your an angel now and we will see each other again one day and that gives me some solace. I love you always nephew may you R.I.P. until we meet again."
"Missing you more than words can say...
But never forgotten even though you've gone away...
Forever remembered in my heart and soul...
Love you always buddy...
Uncle Steve....."
"I love you.
I miss you more than words."
"It's been 3 years & it still hurts the same as if it were that day. You will be forever loved and missed!!"
"Well David, this horrible day is here once again. Three years and I'm still taking it one day at a time...that's all I can ever hope to do! I have good days and bad days, but rest assured that you are never far from my mind. Where there is laughter...which has come slowly...there is also silent tears in my heart and soul! I love and miss you so much that sometimes I think that I cannot bear another day without you!! However, I know I have to go on until my time here is done...it is not for me to decide. So, I will wait until the day comes to be able to see your beautiful face once again...oh, how I look forward to that day! Until then, I hope you know that you are Always Loved & Never Forgotten!! Rest in Peace my son, Rest in Peace!"
"Three years closer to spending eternity with you, see you when I get home. I love you Bubba. xo"
"Thinking of you even more than usual (if that's possible), as your birthday quickly approaches. Another year to celebrate the day you blessed me with your presence! However, another year to remind me that I will never get to see you get married, have children or even grow old...you will remain forever young! I miss you and love you so much my Beautiful Boy...Today, Tomorrow, and Always!!"
"nearly 3 years, barely surviving. I miss you so xoxo"
"If you're a bird, then I'm a bird"...I am whatever you are. I love you always & forever my boy!"
"Still I always
Look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
Cause they fly away
One minute they arrive, next you know they're gone
They fly on
Fly on
So fly on
Ride through
Maybe one day I'll fly next to you
Fly on
Ride through
Maybe one day I can fly with you
Fly on...fly on...fly on"
Such a beautiful song by Coldplay, it couldn't be any more perfect for the circumstances. One minute you arrived, next I knew you were gone...you flew on...maybe one day I'll fly next to you! Until that day, I love and miss you forever my Beautiful Boy!! When my time comes I pray it will be you who comes to greet me, but in the meantime..."Fly On!"
The holiday's are hard because our family gets together and you are not there...but I can say that I know you are with us in spirit. Your birthday is hard, but I try to focus on the celebration of your life...the day god blessed me with you, and that is something to be thankful for. But this day...this day is the hardest of them all, because I can't seem to find anything to make this day anything other that what it is. The most awful, horrible, and devastating day of my life! The day that I cannot forget...the day that my life changed forever!! I will never get used to you being gone, even if I live to be 100...I will love you and miss you everyday until my last breath! Until then, please come and visit me in my dreams tonight, so I can give you a big hug and a kiss on the cheek...Today, Tomorrow, and Always!!
"In your memory, I love you Bubba"
"Thinking of you today and remembering you and that sweet smile, great sense of humor and your kind heart. It is hard to believe you have been gone two years, I wish you were still here but I know you are watching over us all and are around us everyday and that makes me smile, until we meet again my sweet nephew, I will forever love and miss you. R.I.P"
"My sweet boy, you are always in my heart and on my mind...but even more so lately since your birthday is coming up in a few weeks! Every day since you left has been torture to my soul! I am trying to find a way to move forward without you here, but it's so hard to do. I pray God will give me the strength and the courage! I love you and miss you so much!! "Sleep tight...don't let the bed bugs bite!"
"The holidays come and go so quickly just like the days of you being gone, It still seems like a dream and I think it always will, we all have no choice but to keep going on without you even though we wish we did not have to. If I could rewind time and bring you and papa back so we could all have just one more day with you both, I would, it would be my only wish. I will never forget you or that sweet smile you had since you were a baby, I know you are still around us all and that makes me smile.
I am looking forward to seeing you once again, but until then I will love and miss you always."
"My second holiday season without you Bubba...time does not heal ALL wounds. Thinking of you and missing you as always my Beautiful Boy. My heart is forever broken until the day we are reunited in heaven. I love you Today, Tomorrow, and Always!"
"The holidays are approaching us and once again it will be without you, papa and now another wonderful person that has left us. I want you to know that you are in my heart and thoughts everyday and if I had just one gift that I could ask for Christmas, it would be for you all to be back here with us even if for just one day, so we could tell you how special you are, were, still are and always will be to us all and how much you were really loved and are truly missed and give you the biggest hug ever.... thinking of you today and always,love you Bubba.."
"Yesterday was a bittersweet day for me. Our family watched with pride and joy as your cousin Tyler graduated from Air Force boot camp. However, I couldn't help but think of you and feel your absence! I know you would have been there to support him right along with us. Thinking of you and missing you even more than usual...love you forever my Beautiful Boy!!"
"Bubba we all met tonight in your honor ,we miss you more than you can ever imagine but we know you were smiling down on us with that beautiful smile of yours . I love you my dear sweet nephew until we meet again may you rest in peace."
"Bubba, I often feel frozen in time with our memories of our yesteryears. I am honestly amazed that the majority of my time spent with you was that of me laughing. Although I didn't say it I have always been one of your biggest fans. Thank You for being my ever wise ever funny big brother & for trying to make me laugh my entire life & for being a good sport when you couldn't. I miss you! <3"
"Miss u my handsome cousin...we had so many good times together that I'll never forget. May you rest in peace and can't wait til we meet again...I never imagined you would be taken from us so soon..."
"I remember when we would carpool with David & Fabian , and we picked him up to go to Harby's school dance. I never laughed so hard like i did that day.He was in the back seat in the middle of 2 other people , he had each of his hands on the handles above the doors and was acting like was swinging like a monkey and making the people next to him smell his armpits! R.I.P bubba"
"Thought of you yesterday as I do all the time missing you at our family gatherings and just missing you period, your laughter and contagious smile always made us smile, what a blessing you were to us all even if for a short time. I still can`t fathom your really gone and probably never will all I know is I am a better person for knowing you I miss you dearly my sweet nephew love you always"
"There was a morning I woke up to a phone call. Little did I know it was news that I had lost my hero. As we come up to the year anniversary. It still feels like I am caught in a nightmare I can never wake up from. I will never think it is fair that I have to stay here with out my hero. You were more than I ever could of asked for when it came to you being my big brother. I love u & miss u"
"My dear cousin,
I never thought in a million years you would have to leave so soon. It still isn't any easier. But we all pull through. It didn't take your passing to show that you were a special person. No, that was determined the day you were born. You were meant to be a gift to us, even for only a short time. I love you, and I miss you. <3"
"Darling Little David, you were the first baby I ever held... My best friends son, the joy of her life. I watched you grow up, even though u didn't realize it, I kept tabs on you & the Princesses.. & I will miss you always. You had too little time to share your light & love & especially your laughter. & fun. Keep the Angels giggling till we all get there sweet child, & watch over Mommy."
"David...you were, and always will be someone to be proud of! You had the most generous, loving heart. You gave so much of yourself to others, without asking for anything in return. You will be forever missed, and never forgotten! I love you Today, Tomorrow, and Always my Beautiful Boy!! Rest In Peace my son."

Comedian and actor Billy Connolly has undergone surgery for prostate cancer. His spokeswoman reports that the operation was a total success and that the 70-year-old actor is fully recovered.
She added: "Billy Connolly recently underwent minor surgery in America after being diagnosed with the very early stages of prostate cancer."
"In addition, Billy has been assessed as having the initial symptoms of Parkinson's disease, for which he is receiving the appropriate treatment."
The spokeswoman continued by saying that the diagnosis will not affect the actor's ability to work. She added that Mr Connolly will start filming a TV series and will undertake extensive theatrical tour in New Zealand next year.
Steve Ford, chief executive at Parkinson's UK, said: "Many people, with the right medication, continue to live a full and active life with Parkinson's, but for some, it can be life-changing and it is vital that Billy gets the support he needs to live with this complex condition.
"We salute Billy's bravery in speaking out about his condition at this difficult time."

December 10th, 2011- February 4, 2012
Urbanitas was a collective exhibition of contemporary artists whose work has being inspired by cities and urban life.
Cities are, by definition, the epitome of civilization. They are a human creation where people live, work, dream and die. Cities are the hubs of activity, the places that define us as social beings. So it is not a surprise that traditionally they have been the source of inspiration for artists. In this exhibition we explore the way contemporary artists see their relationship with cities. Gustavo Acosta, whose urban landscapes register his passing through diverse cities, gives back to us airports, aerial views and roller coasters from different urban centers in the world. Luis Enrique Camejo's fascination with cities includes fragments of diverse metropoles as places of encounter, and train stations as points of departure whereas; Carlos Estevez's evocative images illustrate the city that we all carry inside of us.
Santiago Porter's lenses capture the decay of Buenos Aires, the place where he lives. Another Argentinean artist, Carlos Gallardo, appeals to distant relationships through mailboxes.
New York is a city that has been depicted in countless artworks, movies and books. Here we have Tony Berlant's impression of it as a lonely city made out of metal while Luis Cruz Azaceta is portraying it from a social and political viewpoint by recalling the 9/11 events. A different view of the city emerges from Gory's whimsical snapshots, a balanced combination of the anonymity that prevails in big cities and the surprise of finding unexpected gems along the way.
Sometimes a city becomes a point of comparison, a platform for identity quests. This is Magnus Sigurdarson's case; his pursuit in search of identity took him to the streets of London disguised as a Beefeater guard.
The relationship of these artists with cities varies; the unifying factor is that they are looking at the city not as a concept but as a real entity, a dynamic space in which life goes on.
Project Room: Gian Paolo Minelli
In the project room we will be showing a video by Gian Paolo Minelli. Minelli recorded images of daily life in one of Buenos Aires slums, creating an exact account of it, and highlighting the symbiotic relationship established between people and the place they live in.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 11 (UPI) -- The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee thinks it would be inappropriate to ask Supreme Court nominee John Roberts about specific court decisions.
Appearing on NBC's "Meet The Press," Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., said Roberts could be asked more general questions -- such as whether he believes the Constitution includes a right to privacy. But he said he will not ask Roberts whether he would vote to uphold the Roe vs. Wade ruling on abortion or whether he thinks the decision was correct.
President Bush named Roberts last week to succeed Chief Justice William Rehnquist, who died last weekend. Roberts, a federal appeals judge, had already been nominated to succeed Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, who has said she will retire as soon as her replacement is confirmed.
As chair of the Judiciary Committee, Specter will preside over Roberts' confirmation hearing, scheduled to begin Monday.
"I think it is inappropriate to ask him head-on if he's going to overturn Roe, but I believe that there are many questions close to the issue, like his respect for precedent," Roberts said. "He has emphasized his concern about stability, and we'll get a better idea of his views."

Great photo of Lincolnville lass Priscilla Duncan in The Record of Feb. 18. All of Gwen and Richard's children have good smiles, like their mother. We are proud of our industrious youngsters. I've been ''columnizing'' the Duncan offspring since the beginning of ''Neighbors,'' and with singleminded purpose, they all pursue their goals.
Another young Lincolnvillian, Brian Elmore, was, according to his next-door- neighbor, Nancy Combs, just honored as ''Teacher of the Year.'' We have much to be proud of in our community.
The St. Augustine Police Department always gets a fair inking on these pages; now they are returning the favor. Two Record reporters, Anne Heymen (the one who didn't retire) and Tiffany Merlo, are among six media workers who will be honored Wednesday at 2 p.m. in the St. Augustine Police Department Building, 151 King St.
Garnering the ''Youth Award,'' Merlo was praised by media relations Officer Joe Bowen: ''Going on four years, Tiffany has done numerous stories and articles about SAPD's Volunteer Youth Group. Tiffany has written stories that have helped the program grow and has been there from the very beginning.''
Concerning Heymen's ''Infor-mation Award,'' Officer Bowen said: ''For over two years, Anne has arranged to put the 'Ask Officer Joe' column together. I feel this column has been a great asset to the community where people can ask questions and see the answer in the local newspaper.''
Also accepting accolades from the folks in blue are: Al Brennan/WFOY, the Crime Prevention Award; Wayne Hickox/WKLN, the Humanity Award; Charlene Shirk/Channel 12, the Citizen Award; Phillip Whitley/Channel 4, the police Assistance Award.
Lincolnville Crimewatch president Landis Hewett called to say he had received the National Night Out package for next August. These are all the rules and helpful hints that are needed to put together the NNO program locally:
Night One: The Lincolnville CW/United Way/NNO coordinated talent show on Monday from 6 p.m. to whenever. Many thanks to Lisa Mack productions, who is bringing us three talented bands, as her sponsorship package, to augment the wonderful competition talent amongst which we judges have such a hard time choosing each year. The one confirmed group, ''God's Anointed Messengers,'' will probably start us off, with Minister Marvin Johnson's magic spider fingers kicking out the tunes for his choral group to splendifortize into astonishing adulation to the Almighty.
The other two groups that Lisa Mack will bring have yet to be confirmed, but musical bent is betting on one country rock and one reggae.
Any business or service club that wants to help sponsor any part of the talent show is asked to call Landis at 829-9721.
In addition to the performing arts competition, we will have the ever- popular poster contest, whose theme this year is ''My Favorite Things.'' Sharyn Coley will judge first, second, third and honorable mention. Entry date on that is July 13, delivered either to the United Way building, 117 Bridge St., or the Willie Galimore Center at 399 Riberia St.
A new category, essays, will be judged by Record staff writer Peter Guinta. Its entry date is the same as posters (as are the awards), to be dropped off at United Way only. The essay theme is ''What My Community Means to Me,'' in 500 words or less. That's approximately one and one half pages, typed, double spaced. If handwritten, just count the words.
Next day, Aug. 7, we will have the ''Chasing the Criminals Out of Town'' bicycle function. Decorate your bicycles, decorate yourselves. Bring a lunch. Anyone dressing as a criminal -- black and white stripes -- should just bring a bread and water lunch, unless you were ''arrested'' in Texas. Then bologna sandwiches are apropos. Criminals, try to stay ahead of the chasers.
This event will assemble at the SAPD and head toward the Willie Galimore Community Center, at which point, officer Joe Bowen's bicycle rodeo will entertain you. Also scheduled to entertain is ''The Voice of Lincolnville'' Carrie Johnson, and tentatively ''The Sandspur Cloggers.'' The cloggers, incidentally, were unavailable last year due to an extended tour in Austria, where they won second place in their category, according to Landis.

" Brand: Steiff "
* Prices may differ from that shown
And so Steiff finally gets it's say in the world of my teddy bear reviews, I'd meant to write this review much earlier but got somewhat bogged down by essays and presentations so it got put on the back burner. But now I'm back to procrastinate with another teddy bear review. I think it's been fairly obvious over the course of the teddy bear reviews that Steiff are my favourite teddy bear producers, and the brand that when I have the money I am most likely to buy, and this little man is the latest addition to my Steiff clan.
Steiff is what we can quite easily be called the oldest manufacturer of high quality bears still in the market today. Their first stuffed toy catalogue came onto the market in 1892, and in 1902 Steiff invented its first plush bear, a full 5 years before Hermann brought out their original bears, and by 1904 the Steiff button in the ear of each teddy bear had been brought out to protect the product against fakes. The button itself stands for the high quality products which Steiff produce, the design and the workmanship of each individual bear, the brand image that Steiff has managed to cultivate over the years and the value of the bear.
Margarete Steiff was the person who originally had the idea of the Steiff company, and was the one who set it up although obviously the business has passed through the family as the years have passed. Interestingly in a time when women had few rights and commanded very little social standing, it was this handicapped woman who set up one of the biggest toy companies in the world today. It was one of her nephews, Franz Steiff, who first thought up the button in the ear idea that was brought in during 1904, originally a stainless steel button with an embossed elephant. Although the changes to this button have been slight, excluding the addition of the fabric tag addition to the button which was brought in 1908/9, the differences between the button styles is still enough to determine an approximate date for when the bear was produced. I will not bore you with a full outline of all of the representative buttons over the years, but it suffices to say that the elephant was replaced by the word Steiff in various fonts and metal types, up to 2004 when the elephant motif came back in.
Steiff are well known for their pricey but highly collectable items, and are all still hand made in Germany although they are now sold all over the world. And although bears still form the cornerstone of Steiff's work they have long expanded into other animals, and have added internal noise-makers such as growlers to many of their toys to add to the appeal.
===The bear===
Another definite keeper. Although to give credit, I look hard before buying a Steiff bear, and will never instinct buy with them because of the price. But this sweetheart is one of those bears that you could not resist buying regardless of price.
In comparison to many of my other Steiff bear collection he isn't actually that little however, 40cm doesn't sound all that large, and as the Hermann bear is 50cm then he sounds even smaller. But as most of my Steiff collection stands between 20cm and 35cm, he is a fair bit bigger than most of them. As with most of the Steiff bears he is a fairly solid person with jointed arms and legs, which automatically makes him more endearing to collectors. But this isn't the major selling point with this particular bear.
Steiff have outdone themselves with his fur, as per usual it is very soft, but unusually it has been hand painted by the manufacturers in its leopard pattern. That is what automatically stands out about the product, because it isn't done in the usual way of bears as well as the fact that it makes him look so adorable. As is noted in the bear title the fur is made of alpaca, as is the other two in the series; Zebra and Tiger - and no I haven't got my hands on them yet if anyone is interested! His nose and mouth are hand sewn, and his paws are made of felted wool, but again, this is usual for an official Steiff bear. But the most endearing thing about this particular lad is that he growls...a fairly deep growl that seems to occur when you move him quickly, shake him or turn him upside down (bear abuse I know!). As soon as you look at a large picture of this fellow you can tell that he is amazingly well made, and quite exquisite...I cannot see how anyone can fail to fall in love with him.
I bought him from my known bear retailer in Stratford-upon-Avon for a rather steep £160 - if it helps he is one of the Steiff 2008 World Wide Collection, of which only 2008 were made world wide. With him I was given an official printed Steiff certificate of authentication, another way to ensure you have been given the real product. I cannot seem to find a price in pound sterling on the internet but it seems to be going for $360 on average, and considering the fluctuating value of the pound at the moment someone else can do the maths for me there!
===My reactions===
Well, my automatic reaction was 'Ahhhhhh!'. Closely followed by 'MINE!' Along with the highly childish reaction of grabbing and holding...and as soon as I heard the growl I was a goner...there was no hope of me getting out of the shop without my new found prize. And however tempting doing a runner with it sounded, the trouble that would get me into was far less appealing...I'd been looking for my Christmas present to myself for a while, and he was perfect.
It has always amazed me with Steiff bears that they seem to manage to put a personality into each and every individual bear. They haven't failed here. The eyes are probably where they make most of the effect work, as they make them so open and friendly that he could be a confidant forever. My boyfriends reaction was slightly less friendly towards him...something along the lines of 'Another one?' but that's far less of an issue than the very cute new face I have in the house now!
I couldn't ask for more, Steiff have once again outdone themselves, and easily remain my favourite (if rather expensive) teddy bear manufacturer. He is perfect; the patterns, the eyes, the growl, everything is done to perfection. He is now safely positioned with the rest of my Steiff clan, and happily making friends in that area of the room...he'll soon pick up on the politics of the other clans...! And if they are going to take over the world then they really need to sort out this clan warfare business!
Steiff Classic Teddy Bear Leopard is made from high quality alpaca which has been hand painted with the typical leopard pattern. His nose and mouth have been delicately hand sewn and he has felt wool paw pads. He is fully jointed with a deep growler inside. The Teddy Bear Leopard is the first of three unmistakable bear representatives created by the artist Peter Lorenz. He will be followed by Teddy Bear Tiger and Teddy Bear Zebra - a very collectable series!

Setting Up WordPress
If none of the options I recommended in my previous post satisfied your website needs, the next thing I'd recommend is WordPress.org.
To setup your own WordPress.org site from scratch, just follow these steps:
1. Download WordPress
First, we need to go to WordPress.org and download the latest version of WordPress (3.8.1 at the time of this post).
2. Save WordPress Files
Let's save the files to a spot where we will remember them. I like to save my work in my home directory > workspace > project_name (e.g. /Users/lliebson/workspace/li
3. Download a Text Editor
Now we need to download a text editor for editing code. I like Sublime Text because it is easy to use and it is free, but any text editor as simple as Notepad or Microsoft Word will also work.
4. Buy a Domain and Server
Now let's buy our own domain and server. Our domain will be the URL that directs people to our site. In other words, it is what people type into the website address bar to go to the website, e.g. www.yourdomain.com. We also need to purchase a server to host our site on. I'd recommend GoDaddy.com because I find it to be the most user-friendly and it is a one-stop shop. Also, GoDaddy.com is having a sale right now where every server purchase comes with a free domain name. If you want to see some other options for comparison, check out Bluehost.com, Dreamhost.com, or Greengeeks.com. There are plenty of other options as well if you Google around. Most hosting sites have the same functionality so it shouldn't matter what you choose.
5. Login to cPanel
Now we are ready to install all of the WordPress files you previously downloaded onto the server we purchased! Log into the site where you purchased your server (such as GoDaddy.com), and then log into your Control Panel (or cPanel). On GoDaddy, you can find your cPanel by clicking on Hosting & SSL > Manage Your Hosting. If you used another site to purchase your server, look for something that says cPanel.
6. Install WordPress Files to Server
Once in cPanel, look for a script that installs WordPress. Most cPanels will contain a WordPress installation script. If you see one, install it. The screenshot below shows the WordPress installation app available on GoDaddy.com. If you don't see one in your cPanel, you'll have to do a bit more work. Jump to step 8 since 7 doesn't apply yet.
7. Login to Your WordPress Site
You should now be able to login to the admin side of your WordPress site by going to www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin and entering the login and password you created during the installation. You have officially setup your WordPress site- great job! Skip to the end of this blog post.
8. Download FTP Client
If no scripts are available for WordPress in your cPanel, we will need to download an FTP client (short for File Transfer Protocol), which is a program that connects directly to your server over the internet. This allows us to easily upload, download, and modify files on our server. We will need this to upload the WordPress files to the server we just purchased. I recommend downloading a free FTP client called FileZilla.
9. Find FTP Accounts in cPanel
Next find the FTP Accounts icon in your cPanel and click it.
10. Create FTP Account
Enter the name of the user who will be accessing the server, a password for the user, the directory, and create an FTP account.
11. Connect FTP Client to Server
Open FileZilla and login with the credentials you just set up. (For the host, enter ftp.yourdomain.com. For the port, enter 21.) Click Quickconnect.
12. Upload WordPress Files to Server
Before we upload the WordPress files, we need to make sure we are in the correct folder. (E.g. Local site: /Users/lliebson/workspace/li
13. Setup Database
Once we have uploaded all of the WordPress files to our server, the next step is to setup our database. Click the Mysql database wizard icon in cPanel.
14. Create Database User
Name the database. Then create a way the server accesses the database by entering a username and password (you can use the same ones as before). Create the user.
15. Add User Permissions
Next you need to add the user's permissions. You want the user to have permission to do everything because the user in this case is WordPress itself. Add all privileges for the user and progress through the wizard until the database is setup.
16. Login to WordPress Site
You should now be able to login by going to yourdomain.com/wp-admin and creating your username and password for your day-to-day website editing and content publishing.
All Done!
Great job- your site is now live! Now comes the fun part. To learn how to customize the look of your website, go to the next post in this series: Create a Website from Scratch- Part 3: Customizing WordPress.
