As a daughter, and mother myself, I can truly say that there is no love quite like the love for a child, or vice versa. The special bond that a mother and child share is so pure, and full of unconditional love. To capture this love in a photo to cherish forever, to me, is a gift in itself. Selecting that perfect frame, for that perfect moment in time is equally enjoyable. I must confess my favorite part about having new photographs is picking out the perfect frame!
I truly believe that Mother's are super heroes! They juggle many, many tasks, sometimes all on their own, and still find the time to care for their children. Mother's day is a very special; it commemorates the special bond between mother and child, and deserves a frame worthy of the holiday. I can't think of any better way to preserve those special memories than with a frame, can you? That's why I think special Mother's day frames are an excellent gift idea. What an excellent way to capture your love!
It is believed by me, and I'm sure that I share this belief with many, that special frames create special memories between a mother, and her children.
I would like to share a little tip with you about the versatility of photo frames; they are not just for photos! You can capture, and display your love by framing dried flowers, homemade cards, or children's art, or even an old vintage post card. There are so many special ways to say 'I love you' using a photo frame.
Between you and me, you can never have too many photo frames, and you can never go wrong by gifting a keepsake. So…. pull out that camera, snap that photo, and create those memories! Capture that love, one frame at a time….

My BIOS was 810mhz core all the faster bios's from sapphire on the collection here seemed to brick it including the 810. Can someone gpu-z the bios for me and put it up here or email it to me for backup. PN: 299-1E207-100SA http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/?cid=1&gid=3&sgid=1157&pid=1442&psn=&lid=1&leg=0 can someone give me a link to an upload for this particular model or its rma time as the 925 bios has been blanking the screen on me so just want original, a guy was supposed to send me one before but never did.
I've got the Flex Dual X bios but that's clocked at 860mhz core, 1250mhz memory. Let me know if you'd like to try that.
hi yea i wouldn't mind i see an 850 on collection, the 925 was working ok for a long while has started randomly going blank dunno is card wrecked from higher clocks, all other bios except the 925 dont work from collection.
@Techtu Cheers mate the 860 worked just hope it stops it crashing, i think the 860 might have the same pcb, this should be upped to the collection. temps have dropped also.
I did try uploading it to the TPU collection but it's already there it say's, so wouldn't let me finish uploading. Glad to help.
i can understand the ones that have the 8+6 not working, it should go up as an option, temps have gone from 40's to low 30's, hopefully it dont crash again lol.
I'd also like to add that hdmi output is working as it was not before and it is still working...Big UP to Techtu once again.
I was trying the other sapphire bios's with no luck then resorted to the amd 925 I had accidentally flashed both bios's(noob move). The 925 did work for a good while I only noticed hdmi was not working last week and the capacitors got noisy under load. I have an earlier post where I had it working. The 860 is stable as can be and has given no trouble since I put it on thank you
neoguyver1 What do you use to flash your bios? I started a thread about wanting to flash my card and someone mentioned it couldn't be done with my specific card? I'm asking you as you have a Sapphire card too so maybe you can enlighten me a little.

Hey man, I'm sorry I misread you. You shouldn't bash me for being a total noob about it though, I feel tiny right now I have no real clue on any how to about flashing VGA's, I know the pro's and con's to it and it is a matter of personal preference really but I want to go ahead and give it a try. Thank you for your advice I do appreciate it.

Miranda Bailey
Miranda Bailey's co-workers not-so-affectionately refer to her as "The Nazi" — pretty much because she likes to terrify interns and appear generally invincible. (As an intern herself, the Wellesley College grad toyed with the idea of going into pediatric surgery, but she elected to remain in the general surgery program instead.) Despite her tough facade, Miranda secretly a big sweetheart who's not impervious to personal ups and downs: some doctors say she's gotten soft since the birth of her son, William (nicknamed Tuck), and her divorce from her husband, Tucker, who accused her of putting her work before her home life. Miranda's not letting herself get too down, however — her flings with foxy anesthesiologist Ben Warren and sexy Nurse Eli have put a new spring in her (goose)step!

By Jeff Rabon Hugo City Manager
On behalf of the Hugo city council, police officers, fire fighters and hard working staff, it's always our goal to make each Homecoming the best ever!
Hugoans and their families will make their way back to enjoy all the festivities of this weekend's events, including a "world-class" PRCA Rodeo; one of the only ones left in our region of the country!
To make the Homecoming great for area citizens and visitors alike, it takes a tremendous effort from the following folks; Hugo city arena crew, the PRCA committee, Hugo Chamber of Commerce, Hugo street dept. crew (re-painting stripes, sprucing-up downtown), Hugo city parks & rec dept., and countless volunteers who make sure the parade, luncheon and all festivities go off without a hitch. So, please tell them "thanks" for their efforts when you see them.
I hope that readers of this article are as proud of our community, citizens, veterans, colorful and historic history and heritage as we are. To that end, let's consider ourselves "Ambassadors" for our town for these events, visitors and festivities.
Wherever I go, people say, "folks are so friendly and kind in Hugo." Well, let's continue to prove them right by doing everything we can to make our guests feel welcome as they come back home!
So, happy Homecoming Hugo, and may God continue to bless our city!
The 52nd annual Hugo PRCA Rodeo will feature a new event Thursday evening ––steer roping.
"This is the first ever steer roping for Hugo," according to PRCA committee member, Debbie McLemore. "It will begin at 7 p. m. Thursday, May 30 at the Todd Whatley/Lige Hammock Memorial Arena and will feature several of the nation's top steer ropers."
PRCA steer ropers travel to 60 or more events each year in efforts to gain a place in the Clem McSpadden Memorial Steer Roping finals held in Guthrie, Okla.
According to the media guide, steer roping is derived from original ranch work, but resembles tie-down roping and requires the cowboy to catch and control a large steer (about 450-600 pounds).
The mounted cowboy backs into the box and nods when he's ready; the steer gets a head start, just as the calf does in tie-down roping. The cowboy must catch the steer by first roping it around the horns, which are protected by horn wraps and reinforced with rebar. Then he tosses the rope over the steer's right hip and rides to the left, bringing the steer to the ground, a frontier technique modern ranch cowboys still use to bring down full-grown steers that need medical attention.
When the steer is lying on its side and the rope is taut, the rider dismounts and runs to the steer, tying any three of its legs. As in tie-down roping, the steer's legs must remain tied for six seconds after the tie is complete and the roper remounts his horse.
Fifty-three steer ropers will saddle up in Hugo Thursday, for a total of 106 runs. The gate fee to attend this new event is $5.
HUGO ––Hugo city council members took action regarding the Boys & Girls Club pool contract during a regularly scheduled meeting Tuesday evening.
Upon a motion by councilwoman Francine Morris, the pool contract was approved with one alteration ––an employee separate from the club will be on-hand during pool hours to monitor and assess the needs of the pool and its patrons. It was announced that Joe Ward will assume this position.
Jim Webb was reappointed to the planning and zoning board, after a recommendation from Hugo Mayor Stan Payne.
Members of the council will hold a special noon-meeting on May 31 for the statutorily required budget presentation and hearing for the city of Hugo.
The bidding process for the roof repair at the fire department was struck from the agenda and will be picked back up during the June 4 meeting of the municipal authority.
The minutes of the May 7 meeting, purchase order lists and financial statements were approved. All councilors were present.
According to Mayor Stan Payne, the landfill is still open until further notice to those cleaning up debris and limbs from last week's storms.
"Please tie down your trash, or don't fill your trucks and trailers so full," Payne said. "Our street crew and the county's crew have been picking up limbs and debris that have fallen out and are blocking roadways. Do your part to help."
The 2013 graduation for Grant/Goodland School was conducted on Wednesday. Fifteen graduates were honored.
The Valedictorian was Elizabeth Whitlow. This year, there were Co-Salutatorians: Dona Hall and Kiepher King.
Special presentations for the ceremony included the rose presentation to those who gave support throughout the years, slide show of the lifespans of the graduates with background music, "Man in the Mirror" by Michael Jackson, speaking by Pastor Julius Buckner, special music by Patrick Holloway and Allen Webster, Invocation by Jalynn Parker and Benediction by Katlyn Kamein.
The graduating class of 2013 includes: Clinnon Campbell, Taylor Collins, Dekon Daniel, Kyon Freeman, Dona Hall, Emily Heady, Randel Himes, Patrick Holloway, Wesley Hunter, Katlyn Kamein, Keipher Lester King, Elaine Davidson, Jalynn Parker, Kealin Scott and Elizabeth Whitlow.
HUGO ––Members of the Choctaw Memorial Hospital board met with the board of county commissioners and the Hugo city council Monday afternoon to discuss financing certain improvements to the Choctaw Memorial Hospital.
These improvements will consist of the construction of a new emergency room facility including the addiction of brick veneer, a standing seem metal roof, a covered canopy entrance with clearance for ambulances and furnishings and equipment. The project is estimated to cost no more that $1,565,000.
Those present from the three entities involved voted unanimously Monday to enter into a competitive bid process to solicit bids for the project from financing institutions and local banks.
Once bids are received, another meeting will be held on June 17 for the purpose of approval. For the project to pass, all three commissioners, four out of five city council members and six out of seven hospital board members must vote to approve and award the bid.

Abraham Lincoln, True Crime Writer
While practicing law in Springfield, Illinois, Abraham Lincoln defended a man in a highly unusual case and later recounted the mystery as a short story
- By Laura Helmuth
- Smithsonian.com, February 10, 2010, Subscribe
Abraham Lincoln was a rail splitter, a riverboat hand, an inventor, a poet and importantly, a lawyer. Lincoln also knew how to tell a good story. In 1841, he defended William Trailor, one of three brothers on trial for murder, in a case that surprised everyone in the courtroom. A few years later, Lincoln published the following short story based on the strange case. Lincoln dramatized the facts a bit to abide by the conventions of the true crime genre, but the story as he told it here fits well with the facts of the case.
"In the year 1841, there resided, at different points in the State of Illinois, three brothers by the name of Trailor. Their Christian names were William, Henry and Archibald. Archibald resided at Springfield, then as now the Seat of Government of the State. He was a sober, retiring and industrious man, of about thirty years of age; a carpenter by trade, and a bachelor, boarding with his partner in business—a Mr. Myers. Henry, a year or two older, was a man of like retiring and industrious habits; had a family and resided with it on a farm at Clary's Grove, about twenty miles distant from Springfield in a North-westerly direction. William, still older, and with similar habits, resided on a farm in Warren county, distant from Springfield something more than a hundred miles in the same North-westerly direction. He was a widower, with several children.
"In the neighborhood of William's residence, there was, and had been for several years, a man by the name of Fisher, who was somewhat above the age of fifty; had no family, and no settled home; but who boarded and lodged a while here and a while there, with the persons for whom he did little jobs of work. His habits were remarkably economical, so that an impression got about that he had accumulated a considerable amount of money.
"In the latter part of May in the year mentioned, William formed the purpose of visiting his brothers at Clary's Grove, and Springfield; and Fisher, at the time having his temporary residence at his house, resolved to accompany him. They set out together in a buggy with a single horse. On Sunday Evening they reached Henry's residence, and staid over night. On Monday Morning, being the first Monday of June, they started on to Springfield, Henry accompanying them on horseback. They reached town about noon, met Archibald, went with him to his boarding house, and there took up their lodgings for the time they should remain.
"After dinner, the three Trailors and Fisher left the boarding house in company, for the avowed purpose of spending the evening together in looking about the town. At supper, the Trailors had all returned, but Fisher was missing, and some inquiry was made about him. After supper, the Trailors went out professedly in search of him. One by one they returned, the last coming in after late tea time, and each stating that he had been unable to discover any thing of Fisher. The next day, both before and after breakfast, they went professedly in search again, and returned at noon, still unsuccessful. Dinner again being had, William and Henry expressed a determination to give up the search and start for their homes. This was remonstrated against by some of the boarders about the house, on the ground that Fisher was somewhere in the vicinity, and would be left without any conveyance, as he and William had come in the same buggy. The remonstrance was disregarded, and they departed for their homes respectively.
"Up to this time, the knowledge of Fisher's mysterious disappearance, had spread very little beyond the few boarders at Myers', and excited no considerable interest. After the lapse of three or four days, Henry returned to Springfield, for the ostensible purpose of making further search for Fisher. Procuring some of the boarders, he, together with them and Archibald, spent another day in ineffectual search, when it was again abandoned, and he returned home. No general interest was yet excited.
"On the Friday, week after Fisher's disappearance, the Postmaster at Springfield received a letter from the Postmaster nearest William's residence in Warren county, stating that William had returned home without Fisher, and was saying, rather boastfully, that Fisher was dead, and had willed him his money, and that he had got about fifteen hundred dollars by it. The letter further stated that William's story and conduct seemed strange; and desired the Postmaster at Springfield to ascertain and write what was the truth in the matter. The Postmaster at Springfield made the letter public, and at once, excitement became universal and intense. Springfield, at that time had a population of about 3500, with a city organization. The Attorney General of the State resided there. A purpose was forthwith formed to ferret out the mystery, in putting which into execution, the Mayor of the city, and the Attorney General took the lead. To make search for, and, if possible, find the body of the man supposed to be murdered, was resolved on as the first step. In pursuance of this, men were formed into large parties, and marched abreast, in all directions, so as to let no inch of ground in the vicinity, remain unsearched.
"Examinations were made of cellars, wells, and pits of all descriptions, where it was thought possible the body might be concealed. All the fresh, or tolerably fresh graves at the grave-yard were pried into, and dead horses and dead dogs were disintered, where, in some instances, they had been buried by their partial masters. This search, as has appeared, commenced on Friday. It continued until Saturday afternoon without success, when it was determined to dispatch officers to arrest William and Henry at their residences respectively. The officers started on Sunday Morning, meanwhile, the search for the body was continued, and rumors got afloat of the Trailors having passed, at different times and places, several gold pieces, which were readily supposed to have belonged to Fisher.

It would have been nice if meyer kohane would have given the page number that article is on (the Google link). I went through that paper twice and never found anything related to Lincoln or that story. Then again, it was fun to look at 1991 hairstyles and read Calvin and Hobbes and The Far Side. Also interesting to see what kind of stuff Nickelodeon ran before it had SpongeBob, so going to that link was not a total waste of time. [heavy sarcasm]

You can definitely tell this was written by an attorney! I work with legal documents all the time and I find it fascinating that that the "legalese" writing style has not changed much in a century and half. But what has changed is the fact that Lincoln felt he could write this story without fear of being sued! Any attorney today would be well aware of this risk and would carefully mask any identifying details.
Fortunately, he did much better as a speechwriter.
Posted by L. Marie on June 29,2010 | 01:13 AM
I would grade this story B mostly out of respect for Lincoln, and because it is logical and well-organized, the sentences being reasonably well-constructed. It reveals Lincoln to be a well-trained lawyer, with an orderly mind.
As a "story" however, it violates several principles, most notably Elmore Leonard's rule to leave out what readers skip over. If readers did not know the author, it's unlikely they would stick with the frankly boring biographical summaries at the beginning.
Lincoln was certainly able to express himself more economically, and with powerful directness not evident in this example. (The Gettysburg Address) Therefore I assume he chose this more leisurely approach for a reason, probably out of deference to his audience. Before sound bites, second-by-second film editing, and MTV, audiences were more patient. They could stand quietly as they did at the Lincoln-Douglas debates, listening intently to each side's arguments, then reassemble their thoughts into considered opinions.

Loved The story!!!nevewr ever thiught him capable.Please give ua More if more are to be has.Anyone care to comment on a recently published theory that he was born in NC?
Posted by jo eakins on April 17,2010 | 10:00 AM
The Trailor narrative is too thought-provoking to leave it alone. It is the American "Rashomon." I will put myself in competition with Abraham Lincoln- to write the story as a novel, historical fiction!
Posted by Wayne Soini on March 25,2010 | 08:47 PM
J'ai eu tort: The real story is not quite as fun as the results of subtle liberties Abe took, but it's still interesting.
Posted by meyer kohane on March 15,2010 | 10:38 PM
Regarding the function of "importantly" in the first sentence of the story, it is an adverb modifying the verb "was." The purpose of this modifier is that, of all Lincoln's roles in life which were mentioned, his occupation of lawyer is most important for this particular story because that is how he was involved in the story and knew its details.
Posted by Marilyn Long on March 6,2010 | 10:24 PM
J'accuse: The whole thing happened precisely as the brother told it, and the doctor provided the key—closed head injury. There was a struggle—they left him for dead. He, in perhaps a brief coma, certainly appeared to be when they came to move the body. They did in fact dump him in the pond. This snapped him out of it [the only miraculous part being that he didn't drown first]. Delirious, he wandered back to a known refuge rather than [rationally] going to the nearest residence. Perhaps a traveler, who never heard of the affair afterwards, gave him a ride.
I say they did in fact rob him and were likely guilty of at least assault [aggravated by leaving him for dead], and probably attempted murder. The real mystery is how Ol' Abe managed to get them off without an explanation of where that money came from—sounds like everyone's minds were wiped clean when the guy showed up alive—like the 'flashy thing' in Men in Black.

What does "importantly" mean, as used in the first sentence? If it means, "important," why add an ly to it? It works just fine by itself, unless you're trying to sound importantly.

I find it sadly ironic how everyone praises Lincoln for his greatness but fails to recognize his personal racist views and unconstitutional acts during war time.

I think Fisher had a twin brother who wanted him dead for his money and planned everything with the two brothers. Then the twin went to the Doctor, who did not know, and believed him.

Great Lakes:
A Coordinated Strategic Plan and Monitoring System Are Needed to Achieve Restoration Goals
GAO-03-999T, Jul 16, 2003
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-6225
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The five Great Lakes, which comprise the largest system of freshwater in the world, are threatened on many environmental fronts. To address the extent of progress made in restoring the Great Lakes Basin, which includes the lakes and surrounding area, GAO (1) identified the federal and state environmental programs operating in the basin and the funding devoted to them, (2) evaluated the restoration strategies used and how they are coordinated, and (3) assessed overall environmental progress made in the basin restoration effort.
There are 148 federal and 51 state programs funding environmental restoration activities in the Great Lakes Basin. Most of these programs are nationwide or statewide programs that do not specifically focus on the Great Lakes. However, several programs specifically address environmental conditions in the Great Lakes. GAO identified 33 federal Great Lakes specific programs, and states funded 17 additional unique Great Lakes specific programs. Although Great Lakes funding is not routinely tracked for many of these programs, we identified a total of about $3.7 billion in basin-specific projects for fiscal years 1992 through 2001. GAO identified several Great Lakes environmental strategies being used at the binational, federal, and state levels. These strategies are not coordinated or unified in a fashion comparable to other large restoration projects, such as the South Florida ecosystem. Without an overarching plan for these strategies, it is difficult to determine overall progress. The Water Quality Act of 1987 charged EPA's Great Lakes National Program Office with the responsibility for coordinating federal actions for improving the Great Lakes' water quality, however, it has not fully exercised this authority to this point. With available information, it is not possible to comprehensively assess restoration progress in the Great Lakes. Current indicators rely on limited quantitative data and subjective judgments to determine whether conditions are improving, such as whether fish are safe to eat. The ultimate success of an ongoing binational effort to develop a set of overall indicators for the Great Lakes is uncertain because it relies on the resources voluntarily provided by several organizations. Further, no date for completing a final list of indicators has been established.

Posts Tagged 'Joshuatree'
Trip from hell, we fell and we keep tumbling down slowly.
So here is another one of those "against all odds" scenarios.
Against all odds, we made it to joshua tree. We literally put putted our way into California. Reason being, we were broken down in an unknown city, no one was willing to help and we needed to play the festival and be around friends at least.
We drove at mind blowing speeds of 35-55mph, the car kept smoking and we would pull over to give it rest but we needed to get there. Had we not, we would have owed the festival $500. The entire drive (of about 8hrs) I inhaled just smoke from the exhaust. At the end of the drive I felt like I was dying (not to be dramatic or anything, but it was horrible).
We got there, pulled into camp and rehearsed some songs and went to sleep.
Woke up early this morning to do an Interview over the phone with a radio station in Madison to talk about the Steel Bridge Song Fest, and our terrible luck with the van. The DJ and the audience liked what I had to say about the crooks that sold us the thing. Im hoping somehow magically they grow some hearts and help us out.
Then we soundchecked and played an INCREDIBLE set. The crowd was big, responsive, listening to every word I sang. I also had the honor of being able to invite on stage Wally Ingram and Eric McFadden to join us for a few songs. It was amazing. Lots of great great vibes. I also talked to the crowd about the bus company and our luck with the van and had a handful of people with some mechanic information approach us.
Now I am sitting in Wally's house with Jerry Joseph, sipping some coffee and enjoying the air conditioning (finally). Greg is driving our drummer Matt to the airport in LA and I am trying to wrap my head around our situation.
Here is the breakdown:(of the breakdown)
We contacted a mechanic in town that deals with rebuilding transmitions-30 years of experience. He will need a least 3-4 days to do what needs to be done to the van just by our explanation on the phone. Tomorrow we will take it to him and leave it.
Now, we have 7 days booked solid with gigs, which means, we need to rent a van to get to the California gigs this week. That will be over $1000 easy. Also, rebuilding the transmition will cost a fortune, but we need to get it done. I just don't know where to begin. How do we get to the gigs? how do we get the fan fixed and back?
Again these stupid corporate companies that claim to be your friend have taken all of our money. We have spent over $1000 already on gas because its running so bad and straining that its just eating up the gas.
It never ends. If anyone has ideas of quick solutions that don't require money, or any other kind of help, Im so sorry to beg again, but we need you…again.
Wish we could find an energy drink to sponsor us and give us a goofy looking van that works.
Love you guys, we feel totally stranded in the pits of hell but I do feel you out there and I know you're keeping us in your thoughts, don't ever think I don't notice. i will never take you for grated, you are all we have.
much love and tears from the desert,
Lil X.

It's a spectacular, can't-miss opportunity - grab a snack and pack a blanket and enjoy the display of neon laser lights. The city renovated the park back in 2010 to transform the park into a natural amphitheater. The Lasershow Spectacular features characters, stories, graphics and fireworks choreographed to popular musical scores, transforming the park into a natural amphitheater.

Located in "The Lakefront City," Leesburg apartments for rent will connect you to one of the jewels of Central Florida. Leesburg is spread out on the shores of lakes Denham, Griffin and Harris, giving the city an aura of old Florida charm. The city fuels a leisurely yet active lifestyle with numerous opportunities for fishing, camping, horseback riding, swimming and other outdoor activities. According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, Leesburg is home to about 20,400 people.
Leesburg apartments for rent will allow you to live in a historic city, as Leesburg was the first to be established in Lake County back in 1857. Calvin Lee is credited with naming the city when, while buying merchandise in New York City, he told his suppliers to "bill his goods to Leesburg." Today, the city is becoming an increasingly popular retirement destination, attracting elderly residents from northern states who don't want to pay the high prices found in South Florida. Families also relocate here to reconnect with nature and raise their kids in a safe, family-friendly community. Top attractions near Leesburg apartments include celebrations like Leesburg Bikefest, a Fine Arts Festival and a Mardi Gras celebration.
Leesburg apartments for rent are located in a very affordable community. According to City-Data, Leesburg's cost of living index is 91.4, which is about 10 points lower than the national average. Because of this, and the city's low crime rates, local amenities and stable housing market, AreaVibes awarded Leesburg an "Exceptionally Livable" livability score of 85. Here, residents can expect to pay reasonable prices for the things they need, including $3.93 for a gallon of gasoline, $2.61 for a gallon of milk, $2.39 for a dozen eggs and $1.48 for a loaf of bread.
Most residents of apartments in Leesburg work in sales and office positions in one of Central Florida's growing industries, which include retail trade, health care and social services. A large part of the economy is also fueled by the tourism industry, as nearby Orlando is the second-most visited convention and vacation destination in the United States. For those seeking higher education, Leesburg is located within close proximity to the region's best schools. Lake Sumter Community College, the University of Central Florida, Stetson College and Central Florida Community College are just a few of the colleges where residents of apartments for rent in Leesburg attend class.

A wonderful combination of f-hole, semi-hollowbody vibe and powerful pickups.
The Pawn Shop Offset Special guitar is one of Fender's most offbeat designs ever. Features include a semi-hollow double-cutaway body with an f-hole and sleek offset waist, a phenomenal-sounding and great-looking pair of large JZHB humbucking pickups with three-way toggle switching and an Adjusto-Matic bridge with vintage-style floating tremolo tailpiece. This is a guitar from the past and the future.
Pawn Shop Series guitars are inspired by the more eccentric Fender creations of the mid-'60s to mid-'70s, which sometimes found their way to the outside world and into the more esoteric pages of Fender history. Crafted for thoroughly modern sound and quality, they present a creative alchemy of diverse Fender elements. New for 2012, the Pawn Shop Series introduces an unconventional new assortment of "guitars that never were but should have been."
Includes gig bag.
Get semi-hollowbody thump along with amazing clean and overdriven sounds. Order today.

AVG TOP 5 weekly issues - June 8, 2012
by JiriF_AVG - 6/8/12 8:45 AM
** Exploit JavaScript obfuscation type 1494 **
In our previous report, we mentioned the JavaScript obfuscation exploit, type 1494, which was considered to be a mere false detection by several website administrators. As a few website administrators still struggle with the infection, we have released a comprehensive blog post describing the situation in details. Here you can find the mentioned blog post.
** Somebody hacked my mailbox! **
You could be surprised by some of your friends claiming that someone sends them spam messages using your e-mail address. You may even receive spam e-mails from "you" sometimes. This does not necessarily mean that your e-mail account has been compromised or that your system is infected. The issue is explained for example in this Gmail help article.
If your Internet service provider (ISP) tells you that spam messages are being sent from your computer and asks you to disinfect your system, but the virus cannot be easily found, you are welcome to discuss this situation in AVG Forums. Alternatively, you could contact our customer care experts for infection removal assistance.
** AVG Do Not Track **
One of the recently introduced brand new AVG features is the Do-Not-Track (screenshot). Users often search the web for more information about this feature. On this dedicated web page, you can find a detailed description of the feature. More information about the Do-Not-Track could be found also in the articles describing the AVG Summer Update or the AVG 2012 Service Pack 1 mentioned in first paragraph of this weekly overview.
If the AVG Do-Not-Track feature is missing even though AVG is fully updated, we recommend checking whether the Do-Not-Track button is not merely hidden in your browser as described in this FAQ article. Should the feature still appear to be missing, we recommend reinstalling AVG completely to rectify the situation as described in these forum posts:
AVG Free Edition
AVG paid for versions
If you wish to deactivate this feature for some reason, please simply disable the AVG Do Not Track add-on (extension in your browser.
** Disabling AVG Secure Search after removing the AVG Security Toolbar **
A few AVG users mentioned that the AVG Secure Search configuration remains present after removing the AVG Security Toolbar (more information on removing the AVG Security Toolbar can be found in this FAQ article). Please refer to this AVG Forums thread, if you wish to change the default search provider in your browser(s).
Alternatively, you could find detailed instructions in one of the following FAQ articles:
AVG Free Edition
AVG paid for versions
** Trojan horse infection **
AVG Forums visitors reported a couple of Trojan horse infections which appeared to be difficult to remove. Should you face any trouble removing an infection detected by AVG, please check this AVG Forums thread for a few tips on how to remove infections. An infection is sometimes coming back when stored in the System Volume Information folder. You can disable the operating system's restore functionality temporarily in order to remove the malware from this location as described here.
If the infection is still coming back, it could be accompanied by an undetected rootkit. We recommend scanning your computer using updated AVG Rescue CD in such case. AVG Rescue CD is able to remove known rootkits easily.
Please do not hesitate contacting AVG customer care experts should you require assistance with infection removal.

New research has shown that one in 12 UK residents has allowed their life insurance policy to lapse. This is particularly true of the over-65s with one in seven admitting to having lapsed their life insurance policy.
Given this finding, Post Office Life Insurance is reminding you of the benefits of life insurance cover. Life insurance can provide protection from a variety of factors including debt and mortgage repayments should the worst happen.
The Post Office also recommends that renewal time for a life insurance policy is an opportunity for you to re-evaluate life insurance cover in order to ensure that you are still adequately protected. If your life circumstances change, you may not have the right level of life insurance cover in place. You should regularly review policy details, to ensure needs are still catered for by life insurance cover.

CANTON The NCAA Division III Membership Committee has recommended SUNY Canton for first-year provisional status beginning this fall. The recommendation comes following SUNY Canton conducting its NCAA exploratory year in 2011-12 and formally applying for provisional status in May.
This is incredibly fantastic news for our athletic program as well as our entire College, Athletic Director Randy B. Sieminski said. Its a reflection of the tremendous efforts from everyone on campus and the remarkable progress and growth our school has experienced. The NCAA is the premier college athletic association in the world, and were excited about this important step forward in the membership process.
SUNY Canton added four new varsity sports teams during the 2011-12 academic year: womens volleyball, mens golf, mens lacrosse and womens lacrosse. The college has more than doubled the number of female student-athletes in the past two years from 45 to 91.
Overall, the College has increased its total number of student-athletes from 127 to 251 in the past two years. Womens ice hockey will be added this coming year and bring the total number of sports teams to 14 seven for both men and women.
The progress in athletics mirrors the outstanding growth weve seen everywhere on campus, but particularly in areas such as academics, student life and enrollment, Vice President for Advancement David M. Gerlach said. Weve doubled the number of bachelors degrees in the past several years, opened a new residence hall and a new athletic facility, and weve set records in enrollment for four straight years.
SUNY Canton began offering bachelors degrees in 1997. The College now has 23 career-driven bachelors degrees. The schools athletic teams previously competed in the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) until 2007, and then in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics before joining the United States Collegiate Athletic Association this past year.
Its an honor to receive this recommendation from the NCAA and become associated with more than 1,200 other NCAA colleges and universities, including about 440 Division III schools, said SUNY Canton President Joseph L. Kennedy. While weve competed with numerous NCAA teams over the past several years, it will be great to formalize our relationship and eventually become a full member institution. This recommendation is the culmination of a tremendous amount of work and dedication for more than a decade.
Before SUNY Canton joined the NAIA in 2007, former SUNY Chancellor John R. Ryan encouraged the college to progress toward NCAA membership. In a letter to President Kennedy, Chancellor Ryan wrote, As you add additional students and strengthen your athletic program, I encourage you to consider membership in the NCAA.
The future of our athletics is very exciting, said Provost Carli C. Schiffner, who will serve as Interim President upon Kennedys departure. Our provisional status with the NCAA will be helpful in scheduling more games against New York State schools and other northeast opponents. In doing so, well be able to cut down on travel costs, reduce the number of hours students are away from campus and the classroom, and further strengthen our shared services goals and objectives with other SUNY schools.
SUNY Cantons sports schedules for next year already include prestigious schools such as nearby St. Lawrence University and Clarkson University, as well as SUNY Plattsburgh, SUNYIT, SUNY Morrisville, SUNY Cobleskill, SUNY Geneseo, SUNY Maritime, Cazenovia College, Wells College, Alfred University, Paul Smiths College, Nazareth College, Union College, Utica College, Keuka College, Medaille College, Bard College, Johnson State College (Vermont), Green Mountain (Vt.) College, Lyndon State (Vt.) College and numerous others.
If approved by the Division III Management Council, SUNY Canton will begin its first year of provisional status this fall.

Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Women's Wind Pro Gloves:
The E-tip works great. They're reasonable for cold weather that's not much below freezing. After that point, they're better used underneath weatherproof mittens or gloves as extra insulation.

Best Uses
Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Women's Wind Pro Gloves:
I purchased these for running and I'm glad I did. My previous pair is great when it's not windy, these are absolutely great for the bitter cold. First wear it was 17F, windchill of -3F and I'm happy to report they kept my hands warm. The touch screen tips are nice, but they're a little bulky for typing. I have long skinny fingers, so the medium was a little wide, but also a little short for me. I would say overall true to size though. I do wish the wrist had some better or tighter elastic, they might fit more snug. After some time the stitching in the inside gets a little uncomfortable, especially if your hands are too warm and a little sweaty (they don't breath very well). Really these are good for when you are active in cold COLD weather, I wouldn't recommend them for if you are active over freezing. Good for everyday use after that.
- Great Fit
- Warm
- Limited Touchscreen Usage
Best Uses
Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Women's Wind Pro Gloves:
These are a great pair of gloves that actually fit me - most are too big. The ability to use your touchscreen phone is limited to the very tip of one fingers and probably only works about half of the time. Still a great pair of gloves!
- Fit perfectly
- Warmer than expected

Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Women's Wind Pro Gloves:
I wanted gloves that were not bulky. These are not too cumbersome and warm too.
- Comfortable fit
- very warm
- touchscreen doesn't work
- Touchscreen Feature Poor
Best Uses
- Keep hands warm
Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Women's Wind Pro Gloves:
This product does provide great warmth and allows you to move your hands well. I would recommend this product solely for these reasons.
If you are looking for touchscreen features, I would not recommend these gloves. I was disappointed to hear from my daughter that this gift does not work for the intended purpose. The special tips on forefinger and thumb are not recognized on touchscreen devices. A cheap pair from a department store work better for her when she needs to text on the go.
Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Women's Wind Pro Gloves:
These gloves are warm, wind resistant, and great for using with my smartphone. It's nice not to have to remove my gloves while out walking in the cold when I wanted to use my smartphone... that's the BEST feature!
I recommend them...

Goal Accomplished!!!! - Stacia Naquin
Updated: 2:48 PM - I finally did my pull up!!! It was a New Year's Resolution that took me ALL YEAR! But I did it.
Cadet 4th Class James Walsh (credit: USAFA)
The Air Force Academy is mourning the loss of a cadet, who passed away over the weekend.
"The Academy is deeply saddened by the tragic loss we suffered Saturday," Lt. Gen. Mike Gould, Superintendent of the Air Force Academy, said in a statement. "As we grieve the passing of James, we ask that everyone keep his family and friends in their thoughts and prayers."
Cadet 4th Class James L. Walsh was found unresponsive in the cadet area Saturday night. Emergency services attempted to revive him, but were unable to. The cause of death is currently under investigation.
Prior to his acceptance into the Academy, Walsh was assigned to the 744th Communications Squadron at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland as a cyber transportation systems apprentice. He then attended the Air Force Academy Preparatory School in 2011, graduating last year. He was accepted into the class of 2016 at the Air Force Academy and attended basic cadet training last summer.
Walsh is originally from Tinley Park, Illinois, graduating from high school there in 2008.
The Academy and Walsh's family are working to set up funeral arrangements.

Melbourne skipper Cameron Smith admits Canterbury had the right game plan to topple his NRL-leading side.
But the Storm's benchmark defence and the visitors' poor execution was the difference in the 12-6 result on Saturday night.
With former Manly mentor Des Hasler's stamp all over the Bulldogs, the visitors dominated possession and territory but, thanks to some poor options as well as the Storm's fanatical defence, they were unable to break through for a second try that could have tied up the match.
The Bulldogs used big forwards Greg Eastwood, Frank Pritchard and Sam Kasiano to make plenty of inroads through the middle of the park.
It was a game plan that the Warriors successfully used in last year's finals series to eliminate the minor premiers.
The home side looked frustrated and pushed passes while golden boy Billy Slater was penalised for back-chatting referee Matt Cecchin after the Test fullback made an uncharacteristic error.
"It was the biggest test we've had all year," Smith said.
"They've got a big forward pack and they really worked us over through the middle.
"They used the ball really well between their forwards and asked us a lot of questions with our defence.
"That's why we won the game - look how many times we defended our tryline and had repeat sets there but it was a fantastic job defending our line and that's why we won."
Bulldogs skipper Michael Ennis was disappointed not to leave Melbourne with the competition points, with his side 4-3 after seven games.
"I was really proud of the way we stayed in the game but crucial errors let us down," Ennis said.
"There's plenty of improvement in us."
