The contractor strengthened the eastbound right lane and extended its service life by installing dowel bars in the wheel paths between each concrete panels.

William "Bill" R. Kilty '54 has died, following a five-year battle with melanoma cancer at his San Clemente home on Feb. 4, 2013 at the age of 80. He was born Sept. 2, 1932, to Edith A. and Edmund J. Kilty in Denver, Colo. His family moved to Los Angeles in 1939, where he attended St. Paul the Apostle grammar school in Westwood and Loyola High School. In 1947, the family moved to Palo Alto, and Bill graduated from Bellarmine Prep in 1950 and Santa Clara University in 1954. Following his graduation from Santa Clara, he enlisted in the U.S. Coast Guard and served as an officer for three and half years. In 1957, while serving in Long Beach, he married Joan C. LaBounty. After his discharge from the Coast Guard, he was employed by the Crown Zellerbach Corporation as a sales trainee. In 1961, he became Headquarters Sales Supervisor for the Zellerbach Paper Company in San Francisco. In the years that followed, he served as Los Angeles Division Managerial Assistant (1965), Portland Division Manager (1968), and Vice President and Manager for the Zellerbach Paper Company's southern region. In 1975, he served as Vice President for Corporate Development at Zellerbach headquarters in San Francisco.
After retiring, Bill and his wife, Joan, relocated to San Clemente, Calif. in 1988 and enjoyed their retirement by traveling, playing golf, and watching their grandchildren blossom. In 1995, Bill's wife, Joan, succumbed to breast cancer. Eight years later, Bill renewed acquaintance with and ultimately married fellow San Clemente resident, Miriam Schumacher Hoffman, who had been a classmate of Bill's at St. Paul the Apostle and who died in 2011. Bill is survived by his five children, Ann Hernandez '80, MBA '87, Jeanne Jelnick, John Kilty, Tom Kilty '88 and R. Patrick Kilty; sister, Janet Lewis; and twelve grandchildren.
Bill was an active member of Rotary, the San Clemente Dons, and Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church in San Clemente. Bill was an enthusiastic supporter and fan of his grandchildren as they participated in sports, performing arts, and other activities, and he will be remembered as a generous and loving father and grandfather.
Ralph Eugene Neary '54, Nov. 28, 2012. Neary, a third-generation San Franciscan who lived in the city his whole life, passed into his Lord's hands at home with his family at his side. He had fought a long and courageous battle with pancreatic cancer.
Ralph was a proud graduate of Sacred Heart High School and Santa Clara University. After serving his country in the United States Army he went on to enjoy a productive career as a mechanical engineer. He holds numerous patents as a result of his creative work over a thirty-year career at the Schlage Lock Company.
Ralph was an invaluable member of Saint Brendan Parish, and enjoyed a life where his generosity was rewarded most by sharing simple, special times with his many loyal friends and loving family.
He could design anything, build anything, fix anything, and he made a mean Manhattan. But most of all, he was the best friend, husband, father, father-in-law, and grandfather anyone could ask for, sharing his insight and talents whenever and wherever needed most.
Those whose lives he touched will miss him immensely. The family is especially grateful for Lauren and her team of caregivers and Pathways Hospice who provided Dad with loving assistance over the last few months.
Ralph joined his parents Charlie and Olga, and his older brother Norman. He is now watching over his wife of fifty-six years, Kathleen (Cullen), his children, Michael (Xiomara), Thomas (Lucy), Charles (Laura), and Mary Geasa (John), and his nine grandchildren, Sean, Meaghan, Monica, Emily, Kaitlyn, Annie, Jack, Kevin, and Joe.

As with any island cruises, on these you can snorkel, have an open-air massage, and partake of bountiful food and drink amid swaying palms and powdery white sands. But what makes these cruises different is that they take you to islands available only to ship passengers. (Prices current as of mid-December, 2011.)
1. Castaway Cay
Disney Cruise Line purchased this 1,000-acre Bahamian island, part of the Abacos chain, in 1984, and it's become the line's top-rated port of call. It's so perfectly configured for beach fun that you might think a dose of pixie dust was involved in its creation. There's an expansive beach for families, a separate one for teens and a quieter swatch for adults. Wet fun includes a floating play area, Pelican Plunge, decorated in faux flotsam and jetsam and equipped with waterslides and water cannons. Three-night cruises on the Dream from Port Canaveral, Fla., start at $880.

2. Half Moon Cay
Nature is what sets island cruises to this retreat apart. Holland America Line maintains a two-mile crescent-shape beach for its passengers, as well as for passengers on Carnival Cruise Lines ships. The rest of the island, formerly known as Little San Salvador, is a bird sanctuary operated by the Bahamian National Trust. Try to roll out of your beach hammock to hike, horseback ride or bike the network of bird-watching trails. Seven-day cruises on Holland's Eurodam, departing from Fort Lauderdale, start at $550; out of Miami, a five-day sail on Carnival's Destiny is $700.
3. Great Stirrup Cay
Norwegian Cruise Line passengers can play Gilligan on the northernmost island in the Bahamian Berry chain. Norwegian purchased this former World War II military outpost back in 1977. Attractions include a 1963 lighthouse, a pirate-tale-filled history and fun in the sun — including whizzing down an inflatable slide. Three- and four-day sails out of Miami on the Sky start at $200 and $250, respectively. (AARP members can book with Norwegian, an AARP-approved provider, through the AARP Travel Center powered by Expedia.)
4. Coco Cay
This private Bahamian island, formerly known as Little Stirrup Cay, is tiny at only 140 acres. But Royal Caribbean makes the most of the space. Activities include snorkeling around a replica of a Blackbeard ship and WaveRunner tours. There are also nature trails to explore and a re-created Bahamian village in which to shop. You're spoiled for choice of vessels and trips: from three nights out of Port Canaveral on the Monarch of the Seas (starting at $180) to nine nights out of Baltimore on the Enchantment of the Seas ($710).
5. Taha'a/Motu Mahana
The most remote of the island cruises takes you to a gorgeous islet in French Polynesia. Thanks to Paul Gauguin Cruises, you can play South Seas castaway in style — complete with drinks served in coconuts and strolling beach musicians. Luxury is costly, though. A six-night sail out of Papeete, Tahiti, aboard the Paul Gauguin starts at $9,000. That said, this line sometimes has promotions that cut fares in half.

And sales tax are paid by people in state and out of state they're paid by people.
Participating in the economy and anyway.
And it's a much more stable form of of funding for government in the income tax which is highly erratic.
-- -- we think we got a good plan to have moved.
Overboard with that we're already seeing some good benefits from -- not without some trade -- are some some some mud difficulties but.
I'd like to do that and grow jobs residency in the decline.

The sale that puts the school's renovated greenhouse to use began Friday, April 20, and will be open again from 3 to 5 p.m. Friday, April 27 and 9 a.m. to noon, Saturday, April 27.
Agriculture teacher Amy Schulte said the greenhouse, located near the faculty parking lot, had been out of use for some time, though she didn't know for how long. It was brought back as part of the curriculum earlier this year after it was cleaned out and had a new automatic watering system installed.
The school's 225 freshman-through-senior agriculture students — many of whom are members in FFA — began planting seedlings for the sale at the start of the year.
Vegetables and herbs are being sold for the first time as part of the revived West High sale, which includes the traditional floral offerings. So far, Schulte and her students said cherry tomatoes have been the most popular selection.
Multiple varieties of tomatoes, peppers and herbs are up for sale for $1.50 each.
Flowers will be sold for $1.50 for six in divided containers.

Choose an Antique Chandelier Lighting Style for Your Home
Style Your Space with Antique Chandelier Lighting
Antique chandeliers are part of Del Mar Designs's large selection of chandelier lighting options for your residence. Chandeliers were used in the past to only feature in places called power positions. These power positions were places like over dining rooms or entryways, where people would notice them and turn them into a conversation piece. Not just for upscale homes any longer, antique chandeliers are now appropriate for many rooms in any house, and their wide range of prices has also helped make them more popular.
Even for homeowners who want to purchase an antique chandelier, it may be quite a challenge to figure out which one to purchase. To help homeowners with this dilemma, Del Mar Designs even provides them with a chandelier buying guide on their website that informs them on what to look for when deciding how to choose an antique chandelier. Said guide will direct homeowners on how to make sure that the chandelier they pick will be the right size for their rooms. Said guide also includes tips for homeowners who want to display their antique chandelier in their foyer.
Del Mar Designs puts an emphasis on selection and variety, so that online shoppers will have the best lot of antique chandeliers from which to choose at any one website. Antique chandeliers come in all sizes, whether it's the smaller, 26.5- inch Medium 6LT Chandelier from Hinkley or the large, 51.5-inch Oversized 12LT Chandelier from Minka Lavery. No matter which size homeowners eventually choose, they will also have to contend with the staggering amount of finish choices on their new antique chandelier. Del Mar Designs provides consumers with a choice of white, satin nickel, primary colors, pink, iron, copper, chrome, bronze, black, or brass finishes. In addition, the website also sells a host of top brands, so people searching for their antique chandelier can buy from Fine Art Lamps, Wilmette, Hudson Valley, Hinkley Lighting, ET2 Lighting, Crystorama, and many others.

Goodbye College, Hello World!
Goodbye College, Hello World!
Author: Samantha Davis
Spring fever, cramming for tests, heaps of papers, presentations, projects and packing – sounds like the end of the year to me! This bittersweet time of year is upon us again and things are getting hectic on campus. For some students, this is the end of their first year of college while for others it marks the beginning of life in the real world. I talked with some of the seniors who are graduating because I wanted to know a little bit about their experience at USF and their plans after graduation. USF has community like no other, hands down. You will notice that every senior, in some way, talked about the community on campus. As the seniors prepare for the next phase of their life, they leave the underclassmen with a few words of wisdom.

March 20, 2013
By Dan Namowitz
AOPA is reminding pilots concerned about the Federal Communications Commission's plan to prohibit the certification, manufacture, importation, sale, or use of 121.5 MHz emergency locator transmitters (ELTs) to submit their comments to the FCC by April 1.
AOPA strongly opposes the proposal, which in effect would force pilots to switch to 406 MHz ELTs, thereby hindering, rather than improving, aviation safety.
Pilots and aircraft owners should explain in their comments how they use their aircraft, why they prefer to use the 121.5 MHz ELT, and any other kinds of emergency locator devices, and how the cost of switching to a 406 MHz ELT would affect their flying.
The FAA has estimated that replacing 121.5MHz ELTs with 406MHz ELTs would cost $1,000 to $2,000, which adds up to increased costs across the industry of $300 million to $500 million. The out-of-pocket expense would drain limited resources from maintenance, or prevent an aircraft owner from investing in equipment that would have a direct benefit for safety.
The mandate might leave pilots unable or unwilling to purchase other devices such as emergency position indicating radio beacons (EPIRBs), of which an estimated 9,600 are now being carried by pilots. Others use personal locator beacons, cell phones with GPS tracking, and commercial tracking devices that provide the same or better tracking than 406 MHz ELTs. AOPA believes that aircraft owner and pilots should be allowed to decide what technology works best in the particular cases of their flight operations.
AOPA believes that a mandate to install 406 MHz ELTs would quickly become outdated, while freezing GA's use of technology at 2013 levels.
AOPA opposes any mandate that relies on only one technology, and has pointed out that the plan would soon be rendered moot by the FAA's mandate to equip aircraft with ADS-B Out by the year 2020. That technology will provide the aircraft's last known position and registration number to air traffic control.
AOPA believes that the FAA should remain the sole authority for regulations affecting aviation, and that the FCC should defer on issues of aviation safety rather than impose an unnecessary regulatory burden.
Meanwhile, although satellites discontinued monitoring 121.5 MHz in February 2009, pilots and air traffic controllers continue to guard the frequency, reaffirming that the 121.5 MHz ELT remains a viable and affordable option for pilots. Comments may be submitted online. Enter "01-289" in the "Proceeding Number" blank. In the comments themselves, please identify WT Docket No. 01-289, FCC 13-2.
Topics Advocacy and Legislation, Economic Impact, Aircraft Components and Gear, ELT, Government Agencies, ELT, Aircraft and Avionics, Emergency, Pilot Safety and Skills, Personal Locator Beacons, Pilot Gear and Services, Pilots, Pilot Lifestyle, Flight Tracking, GPS, NextGen, FAA Systems and Airspace, ATC, FAA Procedures and Services, FAA, Maintenance, Aircraft Ownership
For pilots, the 60,000-plus-member Civil Air Patrol readily comes to mind when an aerial role in a rescue is launched.
AOPA is asking the FAA to withdraw a proposed airworthiness directive that could affect thousands of ECi cylinders.
AOPA is looking to the Michigan Senate for "refinement" of proposals amended unfavorably in last-minute House action.
AOPA thanks our members for their continued support in protecting the freedom to fly.

Dec12Evening Talks at ONRC @ Olympic Natural Resources CenterThursday: 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm
The Olympic Natural Resources Center welcomes you to its next Evening Talks at ONRC program.
TOPIC Orcas, Humans and Salmon: Shared Destinies in the Pacific Northwest
DATE/TIME Thursday, December 12, 2013 – 6:30 to 8:00 PM
PRESENTER Rich Osborne, Ph. D. – ONRC Research Consultant and Neutral Forum Facilitator
BRING Your favorite snack food to share
LOCATION ONRC, 1455 S. Forks Avenue, Forks
Rich Osborne will present an illustrated lecture on the interdependence of salmon, orcas and people of the Pacific Northwest from prehistoric times into the present. Drawing on over three decades of orca research while affiliated with The Whale Museum and the University of Washington Friday Harbor Labs, Dr. Osborne will highlight the challenges salmon-feeding orcas are facing in the delicate balance for access to the limited salmon resources it shares with people. Key questions addressed in the talk are whether the scarcity of the orcas favorite prey, Chinook salmon, is already influencing the decline of this endangered population, and whether the orcas will shift their preference to other prey if salmon stocks decline further.
Everyone is welcome. Topic is appropriate for learners of all ages. Please feel free to forward this invitation to others who might be interested in this topic.

Horrible service, I could not believe how rude and inhospitable the owner (that's right! The actual owner!) was to us. When we arrived there was no power anywhere in the motel so obviously asked to be refunded to find somewhere else with power. She initially refused and offered a candle! After arguing with her about the cost of the room... More

Social Media websites can drive insanely great traffic to your blog if you have a good social media marketing strategy. But it can drive fair amount of traffic if you just submit blog posts regularly to your social media profiles.
Social media traffic is as important as organic traffic from search engines as we can't rely on Google alone. They continue to push algorithmic updates like Panda, Penguin and who knows the next could be Giraffe.
It means that we must diversify the way we get traffic. I'm going to list the top social media and other websites that you shouldn't ignore or must use as part of your social media marketing strategy. I'm NOT going to list all the stupid social media or the so called web 2.0 sites out there as I'm going to focus only on sites that can drive traffic to our websites in one way or the other and not for building backlinks.
Read: What's The Best Time To Share Your Content On Social Media?
Though the traffic quality of social media can't be matched with that of organic traffic, it is still important. It helps us to keep the bounce rate low which is assumed to be one of the many ranking signals used by Google.
Top 18 Social Networking (& Web 2.0) Sites To Drive Traffic To Your Blog
1. Facebook
Google PageRank: 9 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 2
Facebook has not only transformed the way people the world over connect, communicate and share ideas, pictures, videos and news, it's made it possible for businesses to get their products across to a mass audience in a sensational win-win manner.
With over a billion active users it's the largest social networking website. Leverage your Facebook friends and share your blog posts regularly with your Facebook friends and fan base.
2. Twitter
Google PageRank: 10 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 10
Twitter is the second most popular social network (microblogging platform to be more specific). If our content is viral in nature then it can bring instant massive traffic to our website in no time.
3. LinkedIn
Google PageRank: 9 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 13
LinkedIn is web's favorite professional networking website with over 100 million active users. LinkedIn's traffic quality is better than that of Facebook and Twitter as it is mostly used by professionals who are looking for job or business opportunities.
4. Pinterest
Google PageRank: 8 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 36
Pinterest is the biggest thing that happened to social media after Twitter. According to a TechCrunch article Pinterest drives more traffic than Google+, YouTube and LinkedIn combined. If your blog posts have quality images then you shouldn't ignore Pinterest. Just pin those images to Pinterest under the right category and it can send quality traffic to you as Pinterest users are known to spend more money than Facebook or Twitter.
5. Google+
Google PageRank: 9 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 1
Google+ is Google's answer to Facebook. Though they call it a social network I wouldn't call it a social networking website. But that said, it is important to share your blog posts on Google+ as social signals are now used to rank web pages. And that's not all! As you probably know Google now gives importance to authors (dubbed as AuthorRank). For that they use data from your Google+ profiles. It means that if you're popular on Google+ then your blog posts are more likely to be on top.
6. Reddit
Google PageRank: 8 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 134
Reddit succeeded where Digg failed. It's not the Facebook or a Twitter that killed Digg, Reddit killed Digg. If you write content that's viral in nature then Reddit can send you instant massive traffic. Just make sure that you use social media timing signals to share the right content at the right time.
7. StumbleUpon
Google PageRank: 8 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 158
StumbleUpon is more or less a social bookmarking platform. It used to send good traffic during my initial days of blogging. I'm not sure about how many active users are there on StumbleUpon but according to Wikipedia they have over 20 million users. It won't take more than 5 minutes to share your web page on StumbleUpon and hence it is worth the try. You definitely don't want to miss even a single opportunity that can send traffic.
8. MySpace
Google PageRank: 9 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 211
MySpace. I'm not sure why this site still exists but I decided to include the same in this list as it was once the most popular social networking site in the world. It even surpassed Google as the most visited website in the United States in 2006.
9. Inbound.org
Google PageRank: 5 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 16,000
Inbound.org is not a social networking website but it can send high quality traffic to your website if you got interesting blog posts that are original. Inbound.org is a great community of bloggers, marketers and other professionals who love to read and share interesting content.
10. Delicious
Google PageRank: 8 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 552
Delicious is the top social bookmarking website and has around 10 million active users. Though it rarely sends traffic, you can still tag your articles there as the submission is super quick and easy. Delicious.com allows its users to group link with the identical topics that can be gathered from the "stack".
11. Squidoo
Google PageRank: 7 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 185
Squidoo is a community website that allows users to create content (called lenses) for subjects of interest. You can write and submit interesting content to Squidoo with backlinks to your blog or website.
12. HubPages
Google PageRank: 6 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 467
HubPages is yet another user generated content, and revenue-sharing website where you can share your advice, reviews, useful tips, opinions and insights with hundreds of other authors. Quality HubPages articles are ranked high on Google so it can send you traffic if you write and submit good articles to HubPages with links to your website.
13. YouTube
Google PageRank: 9 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 3
YouTube is the web's largest and most favorite video sharing website. You can share your videos with over 800 million YouTube users a month. You can host your how-to videos on YouTube with a backlink to your website so that people would visit your website for additional insights whenever they watch your video.
14. Wikipedia
Google PageRank: 9 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 6
Who doesn't know about Wikipedia? A platform that shares over 24 million articles, Wikipedia is by now the largest place from where you can get references. Wikipedia can drive quality referral traffic to your website. Just sign up as a contributor at Wikipedia and improve the current Wiki pages by editing the existing pages with reference to your website. Just make sure that your web page is absolutely relevant to the topic or it will be marked as spam by the moderators at Wikipedia.
15. Yahoo! Answers
Google PageRank: 7 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 4
Yahoo! Answers is one of the most popular Q&A site on the web. Thanks to the millions of loyal Yahoo! users. There is a category for each subject on Yahoo! Answers. Just write blog posts on common issues and answer the questions asked by users with a reference to your website. It will send you good referral traffic.
16. Flickr
Google PageRank: 9 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 63
Flickr is the largest photo sharing website on the Internet. You can leverage Flickr by uploading interesting photos or videos with a Creative Commons Attribution License. So that people will link to your Flickr profile and may click on your links. Don't want to upload photos? Then why not use those awesome photos on your blog and still get referral traffic. Just use the photos or videos with a Creative Commons Attribution License in your next blog post with proper credits to the original author. Then go to their Flickr profile and comment that you have used the same on your blog post and include the link to the blog post.
17. Technorati
Google PageRank: 8 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 1, 659
Technorati is a search engine for blogs. It looks at tags that authors have placed on their blog posts and it helps to categorize the search results, with recent results on top. You can check the Technorati Tag Index to get the most popular tags used on Technorati over the past one month and can use those tags while writing the next blog post. Make sure that your blog is claimed at Technorati and you use the relevant tags.
You can also write for Technorati as they publish user submitted content on a variety of topics after manual review by their editorial team.
18. Slashdot
Google PageRank: 8 | Alexa Traffic Rank: 2,006
Slashdot is the "news for nerds" website that beeps us about all technology news. It includes all user-submitted news and current affairs about tech and science. So if you're tech-savvy then you shouldn't be missing out this site.
Have I missed your favorite social media or a community website that can drive traffic to our blog? If so feel free to mention the same as a comment below.

By submitting an idea to IdeaX, you agree to our Terms & Conditions. |
Add a customer service chat option. Your customer service then compete more with Amazon and Newegg. This would also be easier so you can tell who and when you are being transfered. Also you would have visable proof for anyone who claims they are disconnected. The chat platform right now is not enough. I cannot even get in to ask product questions. I think this would be a better customer service option for BestBuy. Please leave any opinions here.
Thanks for this idea, and we have actually been doing this for a while. Thanks for all the comments. To chat with a customer service representative just click on the Chat button under Contact us on BestBuy.com.
Just to add a little here is an article: http://www.forbes.com/sites/larrydownes/2012/01/02
Here is an example of software Best Buy could use: http://www.liveperson.com/products-services/lp-cha
YES! Please have a chat service for us to use on the main website. It is much more convienient, especially when we are required to exchange information like 10 digit numbers, phone numbers, and descriptions of products. That way it is concrete and the conversation won't be limited by language or accent differences. Sometimes it is much easier to click a button than to go seach for your phone. Having chat services would make customer service a one-stop ordeal-- because Best Buy gives us all info through email or our account. Having chat right here with all of that just makes sense.
Best Buy is testing chat in the mobile phone and mobile products area of the website. It's called proactive chat, and the agent window pops up when you hang out on a mobile phone product page for a bit longer than normal. We also have chat in the cart and checkout areas of the site. what other areas of the site would benefit most from chat -- speciically what product categories do you feel would potentially drive the most chat conversations?
I too believe that a live chat option will drive brand loyalty. I am a do-it- yourselfer and sometimes i get caught unsure. It would be a great option that would save time and if worked properly, i would recommend to friend and family as a great service that could give Bestbuy the edge over competitors.
Thanks for this idea, and we have actually been doing this for a while. Thanks for all the comments. To chat with a customer service representative just click on the Chat button under Contact us on BestBuy.com.

We have a great short-presentation focused on the Atlanta Job Market by our local sponsor Anteo Group. Our main event is one of the contributors to the Spring Framework, Keith Donald from Interface 21. Everyone has been building Struts-based applications for years so in this session we really wish to deep-dive into Spring MVC and Web Flow!!! The Spring Framework has been one of the hottest technologies to take off in 2005 and promises to be a must-have skill for Java developers. Keith is also a speaker at the Greater Atlanta Software Symposium by No Fluff Just Stuff (www.nofluffjuststuff.com/sh/2005-10-atlanta) and you still have a few more days to sign up! Don't miss the most technically in-depth professional developers' conference to visit Atlanta! The conference includes sessions from Bruce Tate, Dave Thomas, Kito Mann and Dion Almaer as well! Our AJUG session will explore Spring Web Flow (SWF), a core module of Spring's web stack, and its architecture as a powerful controller technology based on a finite-state machine. Keith will discuss in detail SWF's capabilities, including its ability to capture web application page flows as self-contained, reusable modules that make dynamic and sophisticated page navigation decisions. Keith will demonstrate SWF's solutions to important issues facing web application developers in areas such as application transactions, duplicate submits, security, testability, browser-navigation button use, and state management. This session will also show how Spring Web Flow may be leveraged in a variety of web environments as a compliment to "traditional" controllers.

Work detailsEragon by Christopher Paolini (Author) (2002)
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. I enjoyed this book the first time I read it and enjoyed it just as much this time. Eragon is a boy that becomes a Dragon Rider. He is does not know who his father is and never got to know his mother. Eragon finds a stone while hunting in the Spine and doesn't know anything about it. He tries to sell it but the butcher wants nothing to do with it. Eragon keeps the stone since his Uncle, Cousin and him are unable to find anyone to buy it. That is when everything changes for Eragon. He becomes a Dragon rider and has to learn how to use magic, fight, defend himself and how to survive. Brom the storyteller is the one who starts to teach him. Eragon, Saphira and Brom are on the run from the Empire during most of the book. Brom dies from injuries and Eragon learns that he was a Dragon Rider too. He also learns that Brom is the one that killed a Dragon rider named Morzan. Saphira and Eragon run into Murtagh. There are many different beings in this series, dwarves, elves, dragons, wizards, sorcerers, werecat, witches and possibly more that I haven't met yet or remember. The story moved quickly and kept me enthralled and I will be reading the rest of these books. well, firstly I can understand why Eragon gets such a rough deal when it comes to reviews. It is very unoriginal; I warn any potential readers that you will find Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and a plethora of other fantasy novels/ series in here. However, that didn't bother me in the slightest. I found the book well written, I found it exciting, I found it engaging. Although the scenery was a but done, the characters were new if a little cliched (the farm boy, the old man that turns out to be a wizard and teaches the farm boy but then dies too early, the gruff, unexpected hero with a dark secret...) All that set aside, I cannot lie. I really very enjoyed this book and even gave me shivers at certain places. Now, a word on unoriginality. There are three types of unoriginal: distractingly unoriginal, cherry picking and fan-fiction. Eragon falls into the second category. As I read it I didn't find myself going, "oop, there's some LotR... And there's some Potter..." etc and so on. It was only when I looked a bit more closely that I noticed the parts that were cherry picked from other great books. Now I have no issue with this. It makes a great story with it's own, individual characters. It was like building a lego set with pieces of other lego sets and placing your own, made up mini-figures inside it. I enjoyed the journey and I really look forward to reading Eldest (when I get done with Inkspell.) This book is about a boy who finds a dragon egg and hatches it.In the story he is hunted by the evil emporer who wants to kill him so he can be the last of the dragon riders. On his way out of the empire he runs into another dragon rider of a dragon who died. Then he turend back to save somebody. Then his trainer was killed because he saved his apprentis' life. Then his dragon covered him in cyrstal so he will never age. My opinin of this book that it is realy good book. I think this book is good because it has a lote of action and heroism. I think this book is good because it almost never is boring. This book is good because it is full of magic and wonder. This is a good book cause it is full of mystery. The first book in the Eragon series was a little slow, but I liked it. If you are someone who is patient when you are reading a book, then I guess I would recommend reading a book like this. Once I get about a quarter of the way through, I started to get into it. If you like the Harry Potter series or the Septimus Heap series you, will like this book. The books are based of of a dragon rider named Eragon. He was a farmer, but it changed when he found a sapphire egg while out hunting. At first he did not know that it was an egg, but he thought it was a stone. Then one day it hatched, and he began to care for the dragon. He became aware of a link between them; he could hear her voice through her mind and visa-versa. Then, during a conversation, he named her Safira. After a devastating blow to Eragon, he seeks to find the varden and stop king Galbatorix and a shade named Duraz. the first book in his Inheritance Cycle series, and although it is a young adult series, many adults (including me) have found it worthwhile. Paolini wrote this first book at a very young age and was a huge Tolkien fan which shows in his writing. Eragon is living with his uncle and cousin on their farm in a quiet town when a dragon egg magically appears while he is out hunting. Not knowing what it is, he brings it home with him and his adventures (and trials) begin. Filled with action and magic and creatures and kings and an evil dragon rider trying to take over the world, I feel the author does a great job of paying homage to Tolkien and his fantastical world.
''Eragon,'' for all its flaws, is an authentic work of great talent. The story is gripping; it may move awkwardly, but it moves with force. The power of ''Eragon'' lies in its overall effects -- in the sweep of the story and the conviction of its storyteller. Here, Paolini is leagues ahead of most writers, and it is exactly here that his youth is on his side. Is contained inHas the adaptationInspiredHas as a reference guide/companion

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0440240735, Mass Market Paperback)Here's a great big fantasy that you can pull over your head like a comfy old sweater and disappear into for a whole weekend. Christopher Paolini began Eragon when he was just 15, and the book shows the influence of Tolkien, of course, but also Terry Brooks, Anne McCaffrey, and perhaps even Wagner in its traditional quest structure and the generally agreed-upon nature of dwarves, elves, dragons, and heroic warfare with magic swords.Eragon, a young farm boy, finds a marvelous blue stone in a mystical mountain place. Before he can trade it for food to get his family through the hard winter, it hatches a beautiful sapphire-blue dragon, a race thought to be extinct. Eragon bonds with the dragon, and when his family is killed by the marauding Ra'zac, he discovers that he is the last of the Dragon Riders, fated to play a decisive part in the coming war between the human but hidden Varden, dwarves, elves, the diabolical Shades and their neanderthal Urgalls, all pitted against and allied with each other and the evil King Galbatorix. Eragon and his dragon Saphira set out to find their role, growing in magic power and understanding of the complex political situation as they endure perilous travels and sudden battles, dire wounds, capture and escape. In spite of the engrossing action, this is not a book for the casual fantasy reader. There are 65 names of people, horses, and dragons to be remembered and lots of pseudo-Celtic places, magic words, and phrases in the Ancient Language as well as the speech of the dwarfs and the Urgalls. But the maps and glossaries help, and by the end, readers will be utterly dedicated and eager for the next book, Eldest. (Ages 10 to 14) --Patty Campbell (retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:24:22 -0400) In Aagaesia, a fifteen-year-old boy of unknown lineage called Eragon finds a mysterious stone that weaves his life into an intricate tapestry of destiny, magic, and power, peopled with dragons, elves and monsters.

SPACED-BASED LASER obliterates a communications satellite under one scenario for placing weapons in orbit.
Image: GEORGE RETSECK
Take the high ground! The American soldier has been admonished to do so countless times during the nation's hard-fought military history. With strong input from the U.S. Air Force, the Bush administration is reportedly pushing that dictate to the final frontier. The military use of space has proceeded for decades with the deployment of spy, communications and navigation satellites. The new administration directive would move the U.S. from space militarization to "weaponization," opening the way to both offensive and defensive arms in the firmament. The policy makes no sense on technical, geopolitical or economic grounds.
A 2001 commission led by incoming Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld issued a report that contended that the U.S. should maintain superiority in space by protecting its own satellites, by denying the use of space to adversaries, and by retaining the ability to attack targets from or within space. The directive would codify in policy at least some of those recommendations, which have already served to guide the air force in its planning efforts.
For the past 10 years, the military has disbursed billions in R&D on space weaponry--and more of the same is on the drawing board. The wish list would make Edward Teller's ghost proud. Take two examples: one, a space-based laser, would focus a laser's energy on ground- or space-based enemy targets. "Rods from God"--hypervelocity rods made of tungsten or uranium--would be hurled from an orbiting platform to penetrate underground or hardened targets. Unfortunately, the feasibility of these technologies has not been demonstrated in any conclusive way.
Installation of such weapons could initiate a needless extraterrestrial arms race and leave us less secure. Russia has already indicated that it will retaliate if any country places weapons in space. Sophisticated death-star lasers are vulnerable to low-tech counterresponses, such as $6 smoke grenades that can create an impenetrable haze. Protecting vital communications and surveillance assets can be accomplished more effectively by modest measures, such as having unmanned aerial vehicles at the ready that can supply the communications or espionage capabilities to replace a battle-damaged satellite.
From its current position of strength, the best strategic course for the U.S. is to initiate a process that would affirm the use of space as a global commons where all guns are checked at the border of the mesosphere, 50 miles up. A good first step would be to pledge to abide by that provision of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, which the administration withdrew from in 2002, that forswears space-based missile defenses. Otherwise, perhaps the greatest hope against realization of yet another episode of Star Wars is the astronomical expenditure--in the hundreds of billions of dollars--that the federal government would confront, at a time of deficits and underfunding of other security needs such as protecting our seaports. We can only hope that the overburdening financial requirements will relegate rods from God to the realm of think tanks and military colleges for a long time to come.

Prime Minister and Vice-chairman of the Unified Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) Baburam Bhattarai has sought cooperation from the media, in general, and state media, in particular, in the process of completing the ongoing political course. Speaking at a meeting with the chiefs of state media organisations the other day, Prime Minister Bhattarai also assured necessary support from the government while asking the official media to work more professionally by giving priority to government policies and programmes. The prime Minister is right in reminding the official media of their role and responsibility to the country and the people, and his remarks have answered the question that has long been raised concerning what the status of the official media should be. In the past, voices had been raised from different sectors that there should not be any state media in a democracy. But Prime Minister Bhattarai has clearly and openly defended the role of the state media in Nepal.
The role of the official media is definitely important in a country like Nepal as the private media is often motivated more by profit than their social responsibility and obligation. Despite their crucial role, however, official media organisations are suffering from multiple challenges. They may be state-owned organisations, but the official media are getting less priority from the government. The official media face acute financial difficulties due to the reduced priority and support of the government. If the country needs an official media, the state should support it and equip it financially. Prime Minister Bhattarai has, of course, assured of increased financial support to the official media, which is a matter of satisfaction. However, these assurances need to be translated into action, and they should be reflected in the budget.
After Jana Andolan II, a serious debate has kicked off in Nepal regarding the structure and ownership of the official media. This is a good debate, and a fruitful conclusion is expected from it. However, such debates should aim at improving and reforming the organisations not destroying them. There is no doubt about the necessity of restructuring the official media. But in the name of restructuring, their history should not be destroyed. Nepal has official media both in the print and electronic sectors, and their role in the development and modernisation of Nepals media history is very significant. The Gorkhapatra is not only the oldest newspaper of Nepal but also one of the oldest in South Asia. Thus, the Gorkhapatra is a national history and heritage, and its preservation and promotion are the responsibility of all. Different options and models have been put forth by different people and experts for the restructuring of the official media. These options include autonomy, privatisation and running under a cooperative system. So far as the Gorkhapatra Corporation is concerned, a cooperative model might be most suitable for it.

RE: America Lowery
I did see this source...I am going with your date and changing my records for this reason...John and Martha were married 14 Jan 1852. If America was 14yrs 5mos 16 days at her death in 1859 that would mean she was born in 1845..8 years before her parents marriage so I'm on the same page as you now with a death of 1869 and birth 9 May 1855. Thanks for helping me sort this out in my mind and I'll get rid of the incorrect information in my record. :)

It's one of those days when I have a bunch of little food news items to pass along. So, without further ado, here goes:
1. Krispy Kreme Doughnuts are at it again; dreaming up yet another crazy doughnut flavor combination. This time it's the Caribbean Kreme doughnut, which features "the intense flavors of freshly ripened tropical fruits."
If that sounds good to you, keep reading: The new doughnut is filled with a blend of mango, pineapple and passion fruit and topped with white frosting and shortcake crunch. The KK company suggests that you pair the doughnut with their new Caribbean Kreme Chiller, a blend of pineapple, mango and orange flavors that can be ordered in the creamy version or a frozen fruit version. I'm guessing the latter is a bit healthier, and as soon as I hear back from the PR folks, I'll let you know.
UPDATE: Boy, when I figured the creamy version would be more fattening than the fruity version, I never imagined just how big a difference there'd be. According to the Krispy Kreme spokeswoman, the fruity Chiller has 170 calories in the 12 oz. size and 280 calories in the 20 oz. size — and 0 grams of fat in both. By comparison, the 12 oz. creamy version has 620 calories and 28 grams of fat, while the 20 oz. has 960 calories and 40 grams of fat. So if you're on a diet, choose the fruity one!

Good fitting , and well made gloves
The gloves were recommended to me and I am pleased with them . They are waterproof , warm and fit well. Also the way the leather is seen on the thumb and finger is to prevent the stitching coming undo as frequently happens when carrying skies.

good until palms get wet
make sure you brush the snow off the palms as soon as possible, because it will melt and the outside will get wet and cold. Inside is still dry.
28 December 2012
I have very bad circulation which can send my hands black, since wearing these gloves my hands stay warm, I can even feel my fingers,and have a good range of movement I them. They are soft there there are no seams. They come up over my wrist and snow doesn't get into them. They had a clip on them so you don't lose them. I would you these gloves to ski and board.
