PDB Features Pontoon Winner!
Check it out! Our pontoon and trailer winner was featured in Pontoon & Deck Boat Magazine! They're in the upcoming Fall issue!
Originally published in Fall 2013 Pontoon & Deck Boat Magazine
by Katie Burke
Anyone out there want a free pontoon? Not an old junker, but
a brand new Qwest LS Splash Pad? Any takers?
Every year at the annual Houseboat Expo, our sister publication
Houseboat magazine partners up with Apex
Marine to give away a loaded pontoon to the winner of the annual Poker Run.
"Giving away a free boat from Apex Marine has brought a lot
of excitement to the On Water Houseboat Expo," says show producer Greg Larsen.
"It's been great for the industry to get houseboaters excited about pontoons."
Apex Marine specializes in pontoons in smaller lengths,
which makes it easier for the winner to tow it home at the end of the show. The
Qwest LS Splash Pad was a new model for 2013 and it's a great multi-use boat
that includes a bar with stool seating. The stools easily slide out, creating a
huge swim platform for the kids to jump back and forth into the water. Features
like these made it the perfect boat to give away at the On Water Houseboat
In June, Julie Gillespie and her husband, Brian, showed up
at State Dock on Lake Cumberland in Kentucky
as houseboating people, but left as converted pontooners.
The Gillespies' spent $100 on six poker hands and ended up
making it to the final table, with five other participants. The dealer deals
each hand at the table and the worst hand dealt is eliminated each round. Everyone
wins a prize, with the runners-up taking home new tubes and other great prizes
for top sponsors like Sportsstuff. But when the dust settled five hands later,
Julie had the best hand and the keys to a brand new Qwest pontoon.
"I felt total disbelief," says Julie. "The entire time I was
just excited that I had the opportunity to win the prizes offered to the second
through fifth place winners. I never
even considered being the winner of the boat."
The only problem at hand was the fact that the Gillespies
flew to Kentucky
from their home in Lyman, S. C., and most airlines won't let you check a
pontoon boat. People at the Houseboat Expo were trying to help them out with
offers of buying the boat. By the end of the night, the standing offer from the
second place runner-up was $10,000 in cash.
"My girls would have killed me if they knew I won a pontoon
and then sold it instead of bringing it home," says Julie. "So we had to find a
Within 10 minutes of his wife winning, Brian was on the
phone checking with shipping companies, truck rentals and anything else he
could think of to possibly get the boat home. It was not an easy feat, but
finally the couple were able to find a family friend who was nice enough
to drive all night with his truck so he could pull it home. The men drove the
boat back to South Carolina
while Julie flew back.
When the men arrived home with the pontoon, the couple's two
daughters, Emma-Kate, 13, and Mary-Alex, 7, were excited to see the prize with
their own eyes.
"I don't think they really believed
we were telling the truth until we got it back home," says Brian. "We had no
plans to purchase a pontoon before we won it, but we quickly realized what a
great addition to a houseboat a pontoon can be."
The Gillespies keep their houseboat at the Portman Shoals
Marina on Lake Hartwell
in Anderson , S.C. and now the Qwest pontoon is docked
right next to it.
"We purchased our houseboat in August 2012," says
Julie. "Its name was Sugar Shack,
but it has been renamed Insurance Poli-ce. Brian owns a
business called Gillespie Insurance Services Inc. and he's a volunteer police
officer. Hence the name Insurance Poli-ce."
The family spent the summer enjoying their lake in a whole
new way.
"Our most favorite thing about having a pontoon is having
the flexibility to go places on the lake, like going to have dinner
at The Grill Man," says Julie. "Our family also loves using it
to ski, tube and kneeboard. None of those things would be possible with
just a houseboat. The memories that have already been made just since June are
beyond belief."
The Gillespies aren't novice boaters, but they were new to
the pontoon lifestyle. Luckily, it only took a few trips out to realize how
much fun it is to own one.
"This is our first pontoon. My family had a lake
house when I was growing up, but we had other kinds of
boats rather than pontoons," says Julie. "Now we use the pontoon multiple
times during the day. Our girls keep us busy wanting to tube and kneeboard."
Learning the advantages of a pontoon boat was easy. The
family soon got over the initial thought that a pontoon can't pull a skier or a
"Some of the things we like best about the pontoon are its
capability to pull someone skiing, it's easy to get around anywhere on the lake
and the size is perfect for our family of four," says Brian.
Next year, this could be you. Plan on attending the National
Houseboat Expo on Lake
"Of course we are planning on attending the Expo next
year," says Julie. "The 2013 Expo was our first, but surely not to be
our last!"

Kicking off the houseboating season
By Katie Burke
Photos by Brady L. Kay
As I reached my rental houseboat after arriving at the On
Water Expo on Lake Cumberland ,
Ky. , I heard a lady on the dock
say to her husband, "If you can't relax on a houseboat, you're hopeless."
He seemed to grudgingly agree, but she had me sold on the
importance of relaxing. From that point on, that phrase became my motto for the
trip. I'm sure my publisher won't be thrilled to read this, but work took a
back burner to touring brand new houseboats and relaxing on the dock with all
of the people who had traveled hundreds of miles to join us at the 2013 On
Water Expo.
Thank you!
Hands down, the best part of the Expo was meeting with all
of you—the people who make the show a success year after year. I spoke with
families who had traveled from Vermont , Florida , and even as far away as California to visit the biggest and only
houseboat show in the world.
Nathaniel and Allene Robertson came because they are
starting to shop around for a boat once their sons graduate from high school. A
young couple—Jeremy and Megan Hendricks—who just purchased their first houseboat,
stopped by to look at some of the aftermarket products. The point is, no matter
what your current needs are, if you love houseboats, you belong at the On Water
Expo. And we would love to meet you there next year.
It Doesn't Get Any Better
As far as I'm concerned, I would retire at State Dock
tomorrow if my husband would let me. It's a perfect dock community of
houseboaters and they have everything you need to have a good time. We didn't
have to leave the dock one time in five days. I think we've all seen the rental
boats at some marina and thought to ourselves, "Meh." This isn't the case at State
Dock. The lineup of Thoroughbred rentals are in great condition and well
stocked. I know the people who stayed on Boatel Row agree as well because they
told me as I walked by. It's so great that they make the rentals available for
Expo attendees. Best news yet? You can get a discount for staying on Boatel Row
during the Expo.
State Dock also set up entertainment for Friday and Saturday
night. David Lee, Wynn Varble and Michael William are all entertainers/song
writers from Nashville , Tenn. , and they know how to keep a crowd
excited. Between the three of them, they have penned songs such as, "Letters from
Home", "Have You Forgotten?", "A Little More Country Than That" and "19
Varble was having such a good time that he forgot the beginning
of his number one hit, "Waiting on a Woman". Luckily, his underage friend
William was able to help him out.
It's time we get to the main attraction and most exciting
part of the On Water Expo, the houseboats. There were 22 houseboats on site for
full touring during the three-day event. Stardust, Thoroughbred and Summerset
all came with beautiful new boats. The brokers brought out the best houseboats
in their inventory for viewing. From the million-dollar price tags to the $37K
custom one-bedroom boat, there was something for everyone.
Besides touring boats, seminars are an important part of the
Expo as well. Bill Burke gave his talk on the "Seven Deadly Sins of
Houseboating". It was eye opening for all of us attendees when Burke listed off
all of his deployments in the armed services and followed it up with the
statement that the closest to death he's been is on a houseboat with faulty
wiring. Patty Loeser, from WakeAction in Somerset ,
Ky. , provided some great
information on water safety, standup paddle boarding and wakeboarding. Jake
Pyzik, from Houseboats Buy Terry, provided great tips for setting up the
perfect bar on a houseboat. My favorite part? When he shared a story about a
customer using vodka instead of antifreeze for winterizing his boat. The next
spring, he invited his friends over for a party while he drained the pipes. Don
Hevener, from Dreams in Motion, taught a Captains Course where he took a houseboat
out on the lake and gave some great information about always being in control
of your boat.
Cook Off
A twist was added this year when we partnered with Two
Brothers Grillin' for our first annual Chicken Wing Cook-Off. There was
no wingin' it this year as amazing cooks grilled up some of the tastiest wings
we've ever had. Our publisher Greg Larsen, salesman Chris Searle and Barbara
Hilton were the judges and tasted each entry. We begged for winner Chuck
Craig's recipe, but he's keeping it under lock and key. Knowing how good the
wings tasted, we really can't blame him. Sisters Dakota and Skylar Musgrave
took second and third place respectively.
Poker Run
One of the most exciting draws to the Expo is the Poker Run.
The winner for the last four years has driven off in a brand new Apex pontoon
and this year the competition was as tough as we've ever seen.
To participate is simple. You buy one hand for $20 or six
for $100 and then you walk around to different vendors and pick up sealed
envelopes containing one card. When you collect all five cards, you bring them
back and have them opened. The top hands go to the final table where this year
the winner took home a Qwest Splash Pad and everyone else won a prize as well.
The winner after the final card was dealt was Julie Gillespie from South Carolina who took
the grand prize.
"My girls are going to love it and we are going to make
great memories on this boat," says Gillespie.
Let's Do It Again
For those who attended this year, we'd love to see you
again. For those who weren't able to join us for the best three-day weekend
that jump starts summer each year, it's time you save the date on your
calendar. Next year's On Water Expo at State Dock kicks off on June 6 and
promises to be even better. Watch for updates at www.houseboatexpo.com as we
get closer to the show. For more information on State Dock, visit www.statedock.com.

Although I've been a loyal Aweber user for years, a couple of weeks ago there were some New Get Response Features For 2013 released.
Check out my video overview of the new features:
Is Get Response Now Better Than Aweber?
I'll let you decide for yourself, but for now I'll be using both and may make switch over to mainly using Get Response if they continue to improve (and Aweber doesn't keep up).
Let me know what you think…

Posted: 11/11/2012
Recipe for Brownie Pizza:
Difficulty: Moderate
Prep time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Serves: 10-12
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup pecan chips
¾ cup light Karo syrup
1/3 cup heavy cream
8 ounces chopped semi-sweet chocolate
1 Tablespoon instant espresso powder
1 stick unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
½ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
½ Tablespoon pure vanilla extract
Assorted garnishes including: sliced strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, mango, kiwi, and various nuts.
*If all you can find are thin crust pizza pans with holes in the bottom of the pan, these will still work because of the layer of parchment paper.
1. In a small bowl, combine the flour, salt and pecans. Set aside.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine corn syrup and heavy cream. Over a medium high heat bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.
3. Remove from the heat, add chocolate and espresso powder. Stir until completely melted. Set aside 2/3 cup of this chocolate sauce. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
4. Pour remaining chocolate mixture into the bowl of the mixer. Add diced butter and sugar, mix until butter has been incorporated and the sugar is dissolved.
5. Add eggs and vanilla. Mix until incorporated.
6. Gradually mix in the flour mixture until just combined.
7. Line the bottom of a 12-13" thin crust pizza pan* with parchment paper.
8. Pour the brownie mixture into the prepared pan. Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes or until center is set.
9. Remove from the oven and cool on rack.
10. Once the brownie pizza is completely cool, cover with plastic wrap and store at room temperature for 4-5 hours until ready to serve.
When you're ready to serve, remove the chocolate sauce fruit from the refrigerator

"Great location but a few disappointments"
Good points: Inexpensive and within walking or short driving distance to the many restaurants in the Addison neighborhood, including a 24-hour diner and a great steakhouse next door. Bad points: When I checked in, I was charged an extra $20 to "upgrade" to a room with a refrigerator and microwave, which the website said were included. The tub drained […] very slowly (by the end of a shower I was standing in 6 inches of water that took half an hour to drain) and the toilet frequently needed two flushes. The tv reception was spotty. The most disturbing part was when I discovered, while cleaning up a spilled drink on the nightstand, that the phone wasn't even connected to a line. If you want a cheap place with lots of good eating nearby, go for it. Just be prepared for surprises, and have a working cellphone. LisateaveKontrollitud Hotels.com kliendiarvustus

I then asked for another (non smoking) room on the ground floor with 1 bed...was told no can do ! so, from a smoking 1 bed room i ended with a non smoking 2 bed room ! I asked for an ironing board and was brought […] a mini board with no feet ! had to iron on the floor ! They seemed not to care at all ! Don't stay there !

"Middle of the road."
It's a little worn down but for the price that's expected. It's in a great part of town and in the center of everything which makes the price even better. Being in Addison, basically restaurant row and the galleria you don't have any fear of being randomly mugged or anything, which can be a problem when you go on vacation. Had to get their crib for […] my youngest daughter to sleep in and it was probably not far from the trash bin, but she's not so young to slip through the bars, so I let it slid. She slept well enough and at least it wasn't so hard that she couldn't get comfortable. Decent. Not amazing, but not horrible either. Middle of the road. LisateaveKontrollitud Expedia kliendiarvustus

"Super 8 Motel Galleria- Very Clean & comfortable"
We had a clean, quiet, spacious and comfortable room and the staff was most helpful when we accidently left our videos.

This motel is located next to a nughtclub. Thay overflow park in the motel parking lot and at 2am the party continue outside our room! The staff were not a bit sympathic to our loss of sleep. In the morning the beer bottles were all over the parking lot!Kontrollitud Expedia kliendiarvustus

a shot across the agents' bow. Just letting Biron and the rest of them know that there are other options and trying to keep the cost down. I would think Biron wouldn't mind hanging out with Danny again and by all accounts he liked the area when he was here before.
As for Murray, the guy is a decent tactician and, like you all mentioned, would be a good addition behind the bench with PL.

The Lacs
Fusing the unlikely combination of Southern rap and Southern rock, the Lacs (short for Loud A** Crackers), have created their own brand of hip-hop which theyve affectionately dubbed hick-hop. Hailing from Baxley, Georgia, the duo of of rapper Clay Uncle Snap Sharpe and singer/guitarist Brian Rooster King have a sound that incorporates equal parts Bubba Sparxxx and ZZ Top, merging slinky Southern guitar riffs with booming beats and rhymes about life in the dirtiest parts of the Dirty South. The Lacs made their debut in 2011 with Country Boys Paradise, which featured appearances from Colt Ford, as well as the single Kickin Up Mud. ~ Gregory Heaney, Rovi

Karen Evans
Kevin Carroll
Karen Evans, the Office of Management and Budget's administrator for e-government and IT, is not known to be mushy. Her businesslike persona is familiar to CIOs, IT staff members and even contractors.
But at times she has shown emotion about subjects or people'particularly her kids'and has been generous in her praise. One such occasion occurred this month at a breakfast meeting on the Financial Management Line of Business.
With John Sindelar, the General Services Administration's soon-to-be-retired deputy associate administrator in the Office of Governmentwide Policy, in attendance, Evans paid tribute to the 33-year federal employee and key member of the e-government and LOB initiatives.
'John is a guy behind the scenes,' Evans told an audience of about 100 people. 'He really loved the LOBs and made them a reality.'
The praise for Sindelar, who has weathered good and bad times over five years in his current job, should not go unnoticed. While Evans didn't say it outright, her strong respect for Sindelar was obvious.
Kevin Carroll, the Army's head of the Program Executive Office for Enterprise Information Systems, has to have a sense of humor. He runs one of the busiest IT offices in the Army, with more than 600 employees working on 20 programs, including the Army Knowledge Online portal, the Logistics Modernization Program and the enterprise software consolidation initiative. On top of that, he is a popular speaker, frequently quoted by the press.
But through all of this, Carroll, who has been in government for 30 years, is able to poke fun at himself and his co-workers.
At a recent luncheon highlighting PEO-EIS programs, Carroll put up a PowerPoint presentation about how he and his team feel about contract protests.
He represented protests as alligators, and he used Batman-style starbursts to 'bam,' 'zap' and 'pow' the alligators away. He then showed Lee Harvey, one of three PEO-EIS deputies, running from the snapping alligators.
And finally, he showed Col. Tom Hogan, another deputy, boxing with and knocking out a donkey. (Carroll quickly pointed out that the donkey was 'not a Democrat, by the way.')
Besides lightening up the lunch, Carroll also accomplished a technical feat rarely seen anywhere: an enjoyable PowerPoint presentation.

Minister Ahern welcomes publication of Judge Barron's Report
Minister Ahern welcomes publication of Judge Barron's Report on the 1975 Dundalk bombing
The Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mr. Dermot Ahern, T.D. welcomed this evening the publication by the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Equality, Defence and Women's Rights of the fourth and final report by Judge Henry Barron. The main focus of the Report is the bombing of Kay's Tavern in Dundalk on 19 December 1975, which had been included for consideration by Judge Barron following the Minister's recommendation to the Government.
The Minister said
"I would like to thank Judge Barron for his examination of the bombing, which took place at Kay's Tavern, Dundalk Christmas week 1975. My thoughts are with the families of Hugh Watters and Jack Rooney, who lost their lives in the blast and also with those who sustained injuries. I share their determination to have the truth behind the bombing revealed for once and for all.
We are reminded today of those dark days, when many innocent families were targeted both North and South of the border. I commend Judge Barron and his team for the extensive research he carried out into the actions of loyalist paramilitaries at that time. He has also reviewed other attacks, including the bombs at Castleblaney, the attacks on the Rock Bar, Keady and Donnelly's Bar, Silverbridge and the awful shootings of some members of the Miami Showband, among others."
The Minister added that he looked forward to the public hearings into the report which will be conducted by the Oireachtas Committee in September. He said that both the Government and the Oireachtas Committee recognise that full co-operation by the British authorities was essential, in uncovering the truth behind the allegations of collusion by the security forces with loyalist paramilitaries at the time.

Blum v Yuabov
Blum v Yuabov
2006 NY Slip Op 51333(U) [12 Misc 3d 139(A)]
Decided on February 6, 2006
Appellate Term, Second Department
Published by New York State Law Reporting Bureau pursuant to Judiciary Law § 431.
This opinion is uncorrected and will not be published in the printed Official Reports.
Decided on February 6, 2006
APPELLATE TERM: 2nd and 11th JUDICIAL DISTRICTS
PRESENT: : PESCE, P.J., GOLIA and RIOS, JJ
Galina Blum, Appellant,
Elizabeth Yuabov, Respondent.
Appeal from a judgment of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Queens County (Bernice Daun Siegal, J.), entered January 4, 2005. The judgment, after a non-jury trial, dismissed the action.
Judgment affirmed without costs.
In this small claims action, plaintiff sought to recover damages for defendant dentist's alleged improper performance of a root canal procedure. Inasmuch as plaintiff failed to offer expert testimony showing that defendant's performance departed from the requisite standard of dental practice and that said departure was a proximate cause of her injuries, she did not establish by competent evidence that the root canal procedure performed by defendant was done improperly (see Davis v Levine, 4 Misc 3d 143[A], 2004 NY Slip Op 51101[U] [App Term, 2d & 11th Jud Dists]). Although plaintiff now contends that her action was not one for dental malpractice, but rather was based upon defendant's breach of contract, she failed to offer any proof at trial that defendant made "an express special promise to effect a cure or accomplish some definite result" (Clarke v Mikael, 238 AD2d 538, 538 [1997]). Accordingly, the court below properly dismissed the action based upon plaintiff's failure to set forth a prima facie case.
We note that some matters in plaintiff's brief are dehors the record and may not be considered on appeal, since this court is limited to reviewing matters contained in the settled record (see Chimarios v Duhl, 152 AD2d 508 [1989]).
Pesce, P.J., Golia and Rios, JJ., concur.
Decision Date: February 6, 2006

Our Vast Energy Reserves, Obama NotwithstandingMr. Obama repeatedly insists that the United States has "2% of the world's oil reserves, but uses 20% of the world's oil supply." This is an ignorant, and/or deliberately mendacious claim. From a primer (hat tip Janet Levy) by the Institute for Energy Research, with references, below:

The Task Force on Strategic Unconventional Fuels estimated that U.S. oil shale resources were 2.1 trillion barrels. In 2010, the USGS estimated that in-place resources in the Piceance Basin were 50 percent larger than previously estimated (1.5 trillion barrels versus 1.0 trillion barrels). The addition of these 0.5 trillion barrels makes U.S. in-place oil shale resources a total of 2.6 trillion barrels. Previous estimates put the total economically recoverable oil shale resources at 800 billion barrels. Assuming the same rate of recovery for these additional 0.5 trillion barrels brings the total recoverable resources to 982 billion barrels of oil resources.

Bell's CondoTV service is usually provided via VDSL service while Teksavvy only provides ADSL service. CondoTV can also be provided through DTH (dish on the roof) which means your internet service is stricly ADSL. Teksavvy cannot provide service through VDSL. To determine the type of your CondoTV service 1) Go to »www.connectyourspace.com 2) Input your postal code. 3) Choose your building. 4) When the results page is shown, in the bottom left of the page look for INTERNAL USE. 4a) If the page shows VDSL this means that your service is provided through VDSL on copper lines. Follow the instructions below for switching from VDSL to ADSL. 4b) If the page shows DTH stacked you DO NOT have VDSL based service and can follow the normal procedure for switching from Bell ADSL to Teksavvy. See this FAQ »TekSavvy FAQ »Transfering to TekSavvy from another ISP Switching from VDSL to ADSL service You have two options to move to ADSL Service Option A: Cancel CondoTV entirely for TV/internet service and sign up for Teksavvy. This will involve downtime since it will require your line to be re-wired. You will have to cancel your CondoTV service and wait for the cancellation to take effect before ordering Teksavvy. This is because VDSL and ADSL cannot co-exist on a copper line at the same time. Option B: Keep CondoTV for TV Service, cancel internet service and order a dry loop from Teksavvy. This will involve ordering dry loop service (additional copper line with no voice service) and paying extra for the line (dry loop band rate) but this will allow you to receive ADSL service and keep your VDSL service for TV. General notes about VDSL vs ADSL - VDSL is typically provided inside the building so distance is not a factor, however ADSL will be provided from the nearest central office so distance may become a factor and may affect the quality of your speed. - ADSL DOES NOT provide TV service so you will either need to follow Option B if you wish to keep the TV service provided through CondoTV or subscribe to Cable TV. - You may be eligible for higher speeds in the future with the deployment of ADSL2+ whereas VDSL is limited by Bell to 4 or 5 megabits per second. got feedback? by mlerner edited by fourboxers

Heaven forbid you pay for something instead of wanting something for "free". Do you know how many times those of you that used the "free" air didn't move and hang the hoses up properly so that the next person could use it. No instead you let the spout get damaged or run over so it had to be replaced. So pay for air yep, but in the meantime some store clerk had to be robbed which is what this story is about. So I think perhpas we should give the clerk a break and see if you would like to be robbed at gunpoint? I doubt it.
arex, you seem to be the only one talking about the clerk. everyone hopes that the clerk is okay. and yes, it is very good that these stores are here, but i think many on here feel that since stripes took over them, prices have gone up substantially. my daughter said just the other night, a young couple went into her store and were obviously hungry close to midnight, they asked her manager if they could get a discount on the last 3 chicken legs left, there were going to be thrown in the dumpster within the next 5 minutes, the manager told them they had to pay full price. my daughter told the girl to go by the dumpster after she took out the trash, she wrapped up the chicken legs and placed them on the edge of the dumpster. she saw them come by and they picked them up. i know they have health rules but they can always do more. feed the hungry stripes, come up with a new policy with leftover food instead of dumping it. they have money for lawyers and they can do something to no throw away perfectly good and safe food.

Hello! Can anyone help with bus schedules and prices from Netanya to/from Kfar Yona. And from the bus station by sherut to Ulpan Akiva?
Have looked on the Egged site, and cannot find any bus listings from Netanya to Kfar Yona... Maybe another bus company operates this route?
If you can read Hebrew (that's what you are in Ulpan Akiva for, isn't it?!), you'll find this website useful:
Anyway, the 35-express bus line goes from Netanya to Kfar Yona, and the journey takes about 15 minutes.
Good luck,
Be the first to rate this answer!
I am indeed doing a Hebrew course, but the Egged site baffled me a bit. I thought that the route was operated by another bus company, since I couldn't find it on the egged site. Thanks for your help, Doc!

Yesterday I noticed that a previously unknown icon/thumbnail named "Untitled window" had appeared in the bottom panel (besides the Menu button). When I click it, nothing happens (it doesn't open up anything) and it does not respond if I right-click it and choose "Close". I can only make it disappear by logging out and in again. I have no idea which program could cause this.
Also, it only seems to appear in one workspace - if I switch to another workspace, it is not there.
Any ideas? It is just a cosmetic problem really, but an annoying one. It appeared after the system updated Firefox 13 to a newer version 14.
I use Linux Mint 13 64-bit with MATE desktop.

This Week in Petroleum History – January 21 to January 27
January 21, 1865 - Civil War Veteran tests an Oil Well "Torpedo"
Civil War veteran Col. Edward A. L. Roberts (1829-1881) conducts his first experiment to increase oil production by using an explosive charge deep in the well.
Roberts twice detonates eight pounds of black powder 465 feet deep in the bore of the Ladies Well on Watson's Flats south of Titusville, Pennsylvania.
The "shooting" of the well increases daily production from a few barrels to more than 40 barrels. In 1866, the Titusville Morning Herald will report:
Our attention has been called to a series of experiments that have been made in the wells of various localities by Col. Roberts, with his newly patented torpedo.
The results have in many cases been astonishing. The torpedo, which is an iron case, containing an amount of powder varying from 15 pounds to 20 pounds, is lowered into the well, down to the spot, as near as can be ascertained, where it is necessary to explode it. It is then exploded by means of a cap on the torpedo, connected with the top of the shell by a wire.
Modern well fracturing – or "fracking" – will evolve from Col. Roberts' success. He will received the first of his many patents for an "exploding torpedo" on April 25, 1865. By 1870, his torpedo technology became commonplace. Read more about his revolutionary invention in "Shooters – A "Fracking" History."
January 23, 1895 – Standard Oil seals Fate of Oil Exchanges
The Standard Oil Company purchasing agency in Oil City, Pennsylvania, notifies independent producers it will only buy their oil at a price "as high as the markets of the world will justify" – and not "the price bid on the oil exchange for certificate oil."
Oil City's exchange had incorporated in 1874. Just three years later it was the third largest financial exchange of any kind in America, behind New York and San Francisco.
Since these certificates could be bought and sold, trading flourished in oil exchanges at Titusville, Petroleum Center, and Oil City. Standard Oil's action will bring an end to a popular "paper oil" market of brokers and buyers.
With Standard Oil buying 90 percent of production and setting its own price independent of oil certificates, the company's edict will end oil exchanges, which close one by one. Read more in "End of Oil Exchanges."

January 23, 1991 – Gulf War Oil Spill
A massive oil spill begins in the Persian Gulf when Saddam Hussein's Iraqi forces open pipeline valves at oil terminals in Kuwait. An estimated 11 million barrels of oil cover an area reaching as far as 101 miles by 42 miles.
The oil spill, the largest in world history, is five inches thick in some areas. Iraq soldiers also sabotage Kuwait's main supertanker loading pier – and in February set about 600 wells ablaze.
It will take seven months to put out the well fires.
January 24, 1895 – Pure Oil Company founded by Independent Producers
The Pure Oil Company is formed by Pennsylvania oil region independent producers, refiners and pipeline operators.
With its headquarters in Pittsburgh, the company is organized to counter Standard Oil Company's dominance. It is the second vertically integrated oil company – after Standard – in the region, according to historian Neil McElwee.
Beginning in March 1896, Pure Oil markets illuminating oil by tank wagon in Philadelphia and New York – successfully competing with Standard Oil.
"The organizers of the firm were politically savvy and connected. They used a committee of the Congress, the Industrial Commission, to advance their competitive position," McElwee explains in an article for Oil150.
Headquartered in Columbus, the growing Ohio Cities Gas Company buys Pure Oil and in 1920 the Ohio firm adopts the original Pennsylvania name. In 1926 Pure Oil moves its headquarters into a new Chicago skyscraper (once considered the tallest building outside of New York). Union Oil of California will purchase Pure Oil in 1965.
January 26, 1931 – Third Well reveals Giant East Texas Oil Field
The wildcat well that will ultimately reveal the massive East Texas field strikes oil.
In Gregg County, John Farrell, W. A. Moncrief, and Eddie Showers bring in the Lathrop No. 1 with a flow of 320 barrels of oil per hour from a depth of 3,587 feet.
This well is many miles from other recent East Texas major discoveries – 25 miles north of Rusk County's Daisy Bradford No. 3 and 15-miles north of the Lou Della Crim No. 1 near Kilgore.
At first, the great distance between the discoveries convinces geologists, petroleum engineers (and experts at the large oil companies) that the wildcat wells are small, separate oil fields.
However, to the delight of other independent producers and many small, struggling farmers, the Lathrop discovery reveals that the three wells are part of a massive oil-producing field – the largest ever.
Further development reveals the 130,000-acre East Texas oil field stretching 42 miles long and four to eight miles wide.
At the end of 1933 there are 11,875 producing wells owned by 1,715 different operators, all drawing on the Woodbine Sand Formation. Overproduction drives the price of oil from $1.25 per barrel to as low as 25¢ per barrel.
The region's unique history is exhibited at the East Texas Oil Museum in Kilgore.

Old China Hands Archives
Abstract: Alexander and Mary Small, also known as
Lex and Polly, travelled to China in 1912 shortly after being married. Lex initially
worked at the Fati Language School in Canton, where he was the school's engineer,
involved in various small building and maintenance projects. After one year he was
assigned to be the Superintendent of Construction for the Nanking University, part of
the China Union Universities, created and administered by four US missions in New York.
Over thirteen years Lex supervised the construction of 66 buildings on campus, and he
and Polly hosted numerous visiting missionaries. In 1927, the Smalls fled down the
Yangtsze River with few of their possessions in the midst of the Nanking Incident, an
uprising of Nationalist and Communist soldiers in which foreign residents were attacked
and their property looted and destroyed. The collection consists of copied photographs,
a genealogical report, corerspondence, newspaper clippings, and other materials on
Nanking University, the missionary community, and the Nanking Incident.
Jackie Schurman is the granddaughter of Alexander and Mary Small, who lived in Canton
and Nanking from 1912-1927. The Smalls worked at Nanking University.

Handing over control of the city's entertainment facilities to private operators doesn't mean council will lose its oversight of the three venues, say city staff.
In fact, Global Spectrum, Live Nation and the Carmen's Group will be required to keep council apprised of the financial health of Hamilton Place, Copps Coliseum and the convention centre.
"We need to stay on top of what they're doing," said Tony Tollis, the city's point person on negotiations for the privatization of the city's arms-length entertainment agency, Hamilton Entertainment and Convention Facilities Inc. (HECFI).
Council voted unanimously this week to transfer operations of the city-owned facilities to the three private companies. Councillors put out a call to the private sector for the "purchase, lease or management" of Hamilton Place, Copps and the convention centre after HECFI needed $11.6 million in taxpayer subsidies in 2010.
The tentative handover date is April 1, 2013.
Tollis says that the city's contract with Live Nation, Global Spectrum and Carmen's will clearly spell out what information these private businesses must share with council and the public. The operators will be required to provide audited financial statements and present them to council.
The city also plans to hire a liaison who will oversee the transition from HECFI to the private operators and act as a go-between for the two sides.
"That person's function, among others, is to ensure that the contract is being adhered to," Tollis said.
Once negotiations have finished, the contract will be brought back to council for final approval.
The city has learned from experience to require transparency from private companies operating city assets.
Tradeport, the private operator of John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport, has kept even basic financial information away from the public eye because of a lease agreement that allowed it to be kept secret.
It was only after intense media scrutiny that Tradeport offered full disclosure of its audited financial statements and executive salaries.
Still, Tollis said, the HECFI agreement differs from the Tradeport pact. The city will still be required to maintain the three facilities and will monitor the day-to-day operations at the entertainment venues to ensure they're being well looked after.
"The airport is something completely different. They've taken complete control ... and they only have to report certain things," Tollis said. "This is more of a partnership."

Eric Holder A Massive Liability To Obama In The 2012 Election January 5. 2012 Barack Obama In the average Prime Ministership or Presidency, it is usually the head of state that gets into the most trouble, in the cases controversies have arisen. Ironically, in the Obama presidency, it is not so. President Obama's Attorney General, Eric Holder, has sparked more negative headlines than the actual head of state. Barack Obama (center) Eric Holder (right) An astute head of state would have cut him loose by now, but President Obama has unwisely refused, reiterating his support for the law breaking Attorney General. Holder also continues to stubbornly hold on in the face of catastrophic disgrace, in scandals where his criminal misconduct caused the deaths of innocent people in three countries, including America. This is a vote for failure.

Not a day too soon. --Killing Vector (talk) 23:46, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
I am happy that we are out, and yes not a day too soon. However, only 4,415 Americans have died in seven years, very wonderful.
What's more, according to BBC News, they're out a fortnight early :) They've been there seven and a half years, and yet they can say "We're out two weeks early", as if they had an inkling it'd go on for 7 years 6 months and 2 weeks! How very precise of them. Maybe next they can gague the exact length of time they've been in Afghanistan and see if they can get out of there early too :^)
The fact that "only" 4,415 of my brothers and sisters lost their lives is wonderful to you? Not one drop of American blood should have touched the soil of Iraq. Bush and Obama are murderers. One started this nonsense and the other kept it going. Where's the WMDs and what happened to Obama's promise of being out of Iraq within the first 6 months of his presidency? All of this bloodshed for one man to be hanged.
I think he was being sarcastic; making a comment on how the propaganda works. Let us not forget all the Iraqis that have died from the US involvement as well. Or the other nations that were in Iraq. None of these people should be dead.
"All of this bloodshed for one man to be hanged," indeed.
I'm glad no one cares that the impossible happen. Women voting in the heart of the middle east and Al-qaeda and Iran lost an other battle. That what I'm thankful for.
Al-Qaeda would not have been fighting (much) in Iraq if Saddam had remained. Rights, democracy; these are important, but at what cost?
And should they be arbitrarily imposed upon populaces who may never otherwise achieve it, even at great cost?
That is a question I don't have the answer to.
Actually, the Iraq War helped Iran a lot, because it removed their main regional counterbalance. It'll take a long time for the Iraqi army to regain its pre-war strength, and even then, the Iraqi government will almost certainly be more pro-Iranian (or at least least less anti-Iranian) than the Hussein regime. So, good news, Iraq has a democratic government (assuming they work out the political standoff). Bad news, we just handed Iran a victory on a silver platter.
BTW, you do know that the Islamic Republic of Iran and Al Qaeda *hate* each other, don't you?
Iraq will remain a warzone. 50,000 US troops and many many more blackwater variety mercenaries will certainly perpetrate untold atrocities of which US citizens will never hear about. Restoring democracy in a place that's never had such a thing, what a grand accomplishment. Too bad only a million Iraqi's died so that 'democracy' could be 'restored' in a place that's never had such a thing. What a grand accomplishment for the Satanic forces, I mean Bush family and USGOV May they feed their desires for death and blood with a new war soon!
That I'm tasked to go in February. Along with 70 other people.
Could have a little bit more information on it. But overall the information is fairly good. The page also seems a bit noisey to me.

Novins golf event raises $72,000
The 10th annual Robert F. Novins Memorial Golf Tournament continued its tradition of helping provide care for patients at the Robert and Carol Weissman Cancer Center.
The two-day event featured 132 players and raised more than $72,000. Funds raised will support a colorectal screening program that will take place later this year, as well as renovations to the inpatient oncology unit at Martin Memorial Medical Center.
The event was created to commemorate and honor the memory of Robert F. Novins, who battled colon cancer and passed away in 2002. Through the tournament created by his children, Beth and Carson Novins, cancer patients have access to sophisticated technology for diagnosis and treatment.
Since the first tournament in 2002, the event has raised more than $488,000 and has touched the lives of more htan 5,400 patients each year.
Miles Grant golf event helps Roupp
Bright yellow sunflowers dotted the rolling green hills of the golf course. The hopeful flowers represented so many good wishes and donations that the decorated hole sponsorship signs were almost an official temporary hazard for players on July 30 at the Miles Grant Country Club benefit tournament and luncheon for club employee Derrick Roupp.
Roupp, 26, a server at the Stuart club, suffered injuries in a car accident on Father's Day, and remains in intensive care with trauma professionals at St. Mary's Medical Center in West Palm Beach. Miles Grant Country Club hosted the fundraiser to assist Roupp's family, several generations of which live locally. He has no health insurance, and the medical expenses are considerable and continuing.
A sold-out golf scramble, almost 200 guests for lunch and a total of more than $9,500 in donations were the results of the dedicated efforts of a team of club coworkers, members, family, friends and strangers who contributed to the day's success.
"I am overjoyed and overwhelmed by the generosity and goodwill in our community," said Carmen Y Navy, general manager of Miles Grant Country Club. "Occasions like this one demonstrate the best of our humanity. Our membership, our vendors, and our neighbors responded to the need of this young father, despite the difficult circumstances many of us face in our own lives these days."
Several members of Roupp's family participated in the event, including his mother, grandparents, and his 3-year-old daughter, Jasmine, who spoke to the guests about her love for her father before selecting winning raffle tickets. The daisies and sunflowers that decorated the room were more than just symbols of hope, and the picnic-like menu and jolly atmosphere expressed more than the simple joys of a summer gathering. The event demonstrated the sunny spirit of caring and sharing that is a part of every family, including Roupp's extended family at Miles Grant Country Club.
The club will continue to accept donations made out to "Ingrid K. Roupp – Fundraiser" sent to Miles Grant Country Club, 5101 S.E. Miles Grant Road, Stuart, FL 34997 and forward them to Roupp's family.
Crisis Line receives $6,000 donation
The Children's Services Council of Martin County recently received of a donation of $6,000 from Crisis Line of the Treasure Coast. It was the wish of Luella Miner, the long-time executive director of Crisis Line, who passed away in the spring of 2010, that the Children's Services Council be supported with this donation for their efforts on behalf of the children and families of Martin County. The donation was presented to David L. Heaton, executive director of the Children's Services Council by Jim Butler, a founding board member and long time volunteer supporter of Crisis Line of the Treasure Coast.
The Crisis Line of the Treasure Coast was founded in 1977. Miner was one of the original founders of Crisis Line and continued her volunteer duties up until she became ill and passed away. She started as a volunteer operator and also served for five years as secretary for the Board of Directors and subsequently Board president. In 1982, Miner was certified by Indian River State College to teach accredited classes in Crisis Intervention.
"Luella Miner was someone who understood the plight of many who were invisible in our community, homeless families, children in state care, pregnant teenagers and minority women," Heaton said. "She felt their challenges deeply and worked tirelessly on their behalf, not only to develop resources but also to provide them with immediate help and comfort when they needed it most. Crisis Line was an institution in Martin County. Luella did not seek public accolades; she only tried to make a better society for us all."
The Crisis Line organization has dissolved, and it was the wish of Miner that, after it discontinued services, its remaining resources be donated to the Children's Services Council of Martin County.
