Not for beginnersPros: Great picture compared to some other brands, especially for the sub-40 price mark. Great low light performance compared to my other brands of similar cameras. Running four on a common gigabit LAN @ ~ 10-11 FPS with no bandwidth or performance issues. Cons: Bundled Windows client software seems like an unsupported one-off designed for something quick and dirty to include with the device. Not directly supported by most third party viewer software, but it will work with these if you are a hacker or software expert. Other Thoughts: Worth every penny, but this era device is not mature for the consumer market. Some of the newer and upcoming cameras may be a lot easier for the average user to operate. Did you find this review helpful? |
Listen to the Other ReviewsPros: Price Cons: I had no problems connecting another D-Link camera, the DCS-930L to my wireless network. That camera performs well. This one does not. Will not connect to wireless AT ALL. Even on a wired connection, video is blurry, grainy and overall of poor quality. Other Thoughts: Do not waste your money. Did you find this review helpful? |
Can only be monitored with a PC - not Kindle (Android) or iPhonePros: Good product for monitoring with a Windows PC with Java Plug in Cons: The apps for iPhone and Android are rated 1 star by most users. In fact, I cannot find an app that supports this model of camera -- check carefully -- mydlink lite and others do not include this model on the list Other Thoughts: I have spent maybe 3 hours on 4 separate calls with DLink support. They act like it can be fixed but I think they know the apps work for very few people. I have an iPad 1, iPad 3, iPhone 4s and original Kindle Fire. The ONLY one that works is the Kindle Fire, and then only in the house on the same network. Leave your home, and none of the apps will work even after updating camera software and even after updating the apps. On Apple products, the app will crash the moment it opens 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
OK but could be betterPros: Sturdy base/mounting hardware. Nice resolution for price-point Cons: Limited MacOS/Linux support (requires ActiveX for configuring motion detection and for recording video). 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Follow up - Still HopelessPros: I am struggling to find any. The camera appears to work pretty well in low light. I have hung on to this camera in the hope of firmware / support improvements... But they haven't come. Cons: I've had this camera almost 2 months and even though D-Link has released two App updates for ios5 issues and the release of ios6 this camera still crashes the mydlinklite app. I also purchased the mydlink+ app and the app is unable to ever connect to this camera. Remote access appears only available on a Windows PC. Other Thoughts: I purchase hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of computer equipment for my business, and currently D-Link is contacting me about becoming a VIP+ partner. I don't think I am interested if you are going to not support you products. I have now seen the more expensive Logitech cameras in action and viewed on an iPhone.... If you are looking for a remote camera solution, then maybe looks at those. Did you find this review helpful? |
updatePros: I can watch my dog sleep. Cons: Needs lower and slower settings to function as a smartphone IP camera. The error messages on mydlinklite app are not helpful. Dlink did not reply to my request for help and their site's FAQs did not have information to help me. Picture is okay, like bank/security cameras a few years ago. Most security cameras pics I see these days are better than this, you don't have to be their mom to recognize them as you would have to be with this cam. Other Thoughts: My prior 1 star review was wrong, sort of. I had gone to mydlink.com and under advanced settings had set what I wanted the camera to do and it wasn't working. I went back and chose lower settings and it will work as a smartphone IP camera. As you raise the settings you can watch the picture fail on your phone seconds later. You have to chose lower and slower settings. The higher settings worked in a browser on a pc, just not on a phone. Did you find this review helpful? |
Don't botherPros: microphone works Cons: Needs to be close to the router as in the same room. Or, I got it to work wired to a pc which was wifi connected to my router. By itself, its range is one room, no walls between it and a router. Only works with internet explorer. I was able to use it and watch my son play WOW from another room. Saved me walking in there. Otherwise, why have this. It does NOT work with the mydlinklite app so I can't use it away from home. My employer wouldn't like me using their electrons on one of their vintage dell pcs to watch rom work and I am in the field mostly so it is useless to me if it won't work with our galaxy s2 or galaxy s3 phones. Other Thoughts: Even if the problem is the mydlinklite app and they upgrade/fix the app to work with samsung phones it still has such poor wireless range that I don't know if it is worth bothering with. I guess it depends if you want to aim the camera at something in the room with your router or if you have a network connected pc you can connect it to with cat-5. Did you find this review helpful? |
Don't do itPros: Inexpensive and has nice packaging. Cons: Not up to par with other D-Link cameras. Cheaply built, can't view from anything except PC. They almost appear to be knock-offs. Other Thoughts: Don't fall for the 940L. Get the 930, 932 or 942. They all work fine. I have 16 total in 4 locations. Did you find this review helpful? |
DCS-940L - Does NOT work with mydlink appPros: The cams video stream can be viewed using the web browser (IE only, doesn't work with chrome) of a PC using the devices IP address. Setup wizard included on CD was relatively easy and straight forward. Cons: Unable to get video to show on any devices using the "mydlink lite" app. Tried it on iphone 4, iphone 4s, ipad and Android, the app either times out, gives an error or crashes and exists to desktop. Even after I upgraded the cams firmware version from v1 to v1.0.34, no change. There weren't even release notes for the upgrade, why not? Other Thoughts: The whole reason I got it was because of the apps for apple and android devices. The setup was quick, but since the mydlink app doesn't work it is so far a huge disappointment. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
second one seems to workPros: Cheap when on sale. Was able to nail down the IP address to avoid DHCP after reading the manual and setup WPA personal security for WiFi. Cons: Cheap. First one was DOA. Read other reviews about slow frame rate and poor low light performance. Browser must be IE. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

We can cut government's -- -- much Bradley must.
But we -- we have a lot of rich people in this country they have an awful lot of money they're not taxed enough.

Are now on.
Kelly show and your argument for raising taxes is it's not gonna hurt us that much.
Is that really a good argument for raising taxes I mean.
I don't -- I don't think it's gonna hurt us at all compared with continuing to run these huge deficits obvious -- I thought it was better to keep.
Running these huge deficits I'd -- do that but we -- year after year in the bush administration and an -- -- administration.
-- if you said taxes.
I don't have to go off by deficits don't matter -- turns out they do matter that turned out there we go banker who's gonna matter a lot.
Where to get the money from well I'd like -- I'd like -- every citizen in America pay at least some taxes even it's a hundred dollars.
But they are very very many very rich people as convicts the idea of their -- the lowest they've ever been.
Since -- over to just doesn't make any -- wives and their taxes will be that low.
When we have -- -- -- There's got to me is not an argument we've got plenty of revenue coming in it's about spending so yeah that.
But you can't -- this it's -- why do you raise taxes when you know that spending is the problem isn't the problem it's part.
The problem and -- brother rob we are spending way more -- the -- and and his incredible way yeah about our government we need some kind of a really serious commissioner Steve Bennett to get that waste out of the government but we've also cut taxes over and over again during the bush administration's we got that -- -- -- yeah averse to Obama administration.
We need more revenue as mr.
Obama's I I'm not a fan of Obama to get when I was you know does that.
But instead it's not calculus is a resident we need more money we can't get it -- -- cuts we need.
And raised that are at what what do you care if they raise taxes on some rich person.
By Sandra because I'm not a class warfare as I want I think -- rich it's it's you are already written the problem I do my soul.
-- you are rich on the other what does it matter in the -- is making a 5102030.
Million a year.

In that.
-- -- The united you totally exaggerate my stature Fox News I live in a basement.
I wanna tell you -- I thought I -- I don't whenever you raise taxes it never goes against any need just goes for more spending.
An example about.
And so when he met President Reagan read everyone says -- Reagan got taxes and and revenue went up.
He cut taxes in his first year.
Every year after that he raised taxes and his son here's they raise them quite dramatically so let's go back again brands that.
He realized then I got it guys with a good idea yeah -- on to more than they raised I look I hate doing that is due.
Any -- person does not want to pay more taxes and has -- but.
We need the revenue I don't want to be Cuisinart on the back -- -- -- I -- your Communist I wanna talk now about hostess.
The makers of twinkies -- -- something called Wonder Bread don't know what that is they're going out of business after striking workers failed to -- a Thursday deadline to return to work.
So I here's the the amazing thing that I've learned -- the lesson here.
Is that we thought that the twinkies could outlast everything except unions.
Are you devastated.
I'm not devastated their planet rather delicious sugary snacks.
But I do think it's an example.
A -- unions really misunderstand their duty in life I mean union man Screen Actors Guild and any other Hollywood unions.
But a union that cause its workers their jobs isn't much of a union I mean I understand.
How they can go home and hide and say there employees.
Look by the way we just -- your job if you took a firm standing instinct.
Manage the -- is what good does that do any yet.
Exactly and you know what you don't just lose the twinkies Gosselin is the snowballs in the -- -- got a huge travesty by the way -- -- let's say move to China.
And the 181500.
Jobs went -- I don't think anybody back and look the left to go crazy but because the union to killing those jobs.
Not much of a -- Well innocently enough I -- there will be some foreign manufacture.
Of twinkies or something like why not and yeah.
Why should that happen differently good thing that happened all the would be much better to keep good jobs in America yet that that's what you -- you don't know if you wanna get a twinkies made overseas.
Because they've had problems making toys.
You know I haven't that we all drive a lot of -- -- cars made overseas yet it look like twinkies bad.
Awesome talking to you gotta go.

The Jim Henson Company

The Jim Henson Company, which is an American entertainment organization, traces its origins to the founding of Muppets, Inc. in 1958 by puppeteer Jim Henson, creator of The Muppets.[1] The Muppets helped the company gain worldwide acclaim in family entertainment for more than four decades.[2] The company's units include Jim Henson's Creature Shop, a renowned animatronics and visual-effects workshop.[3]
The Jim Henson Company was previously named: Uppity-Muppets Corp. (1965), Henson Associates, Inc. (1967), Jim Henson Productions, Inc. (1991-1997).[4] As of 2011[update], Jim Henson's children Brian, Lisa, Cheryl, John and Heather run the company: Brian serves as Chairman, while Lisa serves as CEO.
Since 2000 the Jim Henson Company Studios have been at La Brea Avenue in Hollywood. The site was originally the Charlie Chaplin Studios, and is designated as a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument.
Muppets Inc.[edit]
Jim and Jane Henson formed Muppets Inc. in 1958, three years after Sam and Friends debuted. Aside from Sam and Friends, the majority of work that the company had until 1969 involved creating characters for various commercials, variety-show appearances, and a few meeting films for various companies (the company would produce its own meeting films from 1965 to 1996).
Henson Associates[edit]
In 1969, the company started creating characters and more than 20 short films for the popular children's show Sesame Street.
One of the company's first characters to appear regularly on television, Rowlf the Dog, originated with commercials for Purina Dog Chow and soon became famous when he became a regular character on The Jimmy Dean Show from 1963 to 1966. During this time the show's host, Jimmy Dean, turned down the opportunity to own forty percent of the company because he didn't feel that he had earned it.
For many years, Jim Henson had tried to sell several different shows to the major American networks, all of which turned them down. Some ideas (such as "Tales of The Tinkerdee") were made as unaired pilots, and some (such as "The Zoocus") were never produced. Then, in 1976, British media-mogul Lew Grade approached Jim Henson to produce a weekly show based in England, which became The Muppet Show broadcast on ATV. The success of The Muppet Show led to many movies, specials, videos, and more. The British company ITC originally owned The Muppet Show, but Jim Henson later purchased the rights to the show.
In the early 1980s, Jim Henson also formed Jim Henson's Creature Shop, which produced characters for shows such as The Storyteller, Farscape, and Dinosaurs; and movies such as The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth. During the 1980s Jim Henson produced new television series such as Fraggle Rock and The Jim Henson Hour.
In 1989, Jim Henson started negotiations with The Walt Disney Company regarding a possible purchase of the company. Due to these negotiations, management of Henson International Television based in the UK purchased their unit from the company.[5] In 1990, while still negotiating with Disney, Jim Henson died during the week scheduled for signing the contract, and his family decided to have the company keep the rights to the characters.[6][7] However, on December 18, 1991, the Walt Disney Company bought the distribution rights to the entire Jim Henson Company library up to that time.[8] In 1999 the Jim Henson Company had partial interests in two cable channels: The Kermit Channel (broadcasting in Asia) and Odyssey Network (broadcasting in the USA). Hallmark also co-owned these networks. Both networks were later renamed to the Hallmark Channel.
In 2000, Jim Henson's children sold the company to the German media company, EM.TV. In early 2001, after EM.TV subsequently experienced major financial problems, the Jim Henson Company was put up for sale. That year, EM.TV sold the company's ownership of the Sesame Street Muppets to Sesame Workshop and sold the company's ownership of the Odyssey Channel and the Kermit Channel. The Walt Disney Company, HIT Entertainment, Haim Saban, Classic Media, Sesame Workshop, and Sony (among others) all showed interested in owning the company.
In December 2002 a deal was announced in which EM.TV would sell a 49.9% stake in Henson to an investment group led by Dean Valentine, a former executive at Disney and UPN.[9] However in March 2003, the deal fell through, and it was Henson's children who bought back the company in May 2003.[10] In 2004, almost one year after ownership of the Henson company was returned to the family's hands, the Jim Henson Company sold the rights to The Muppets and Bear in the Big Blue House characters to The Walt Disney Company,[11][12] who control the Muppets through the wholly owned subsidiary The Muppets Studio, LLC. The Walt Disney Company now owns all Muppet-related trademarks, including the word "Muppet". In the teaser for "Stuffed and Unstrung", the characters of Bobby Vegan and Samson Knight made it clear that they weren't Muppets.
While the company no longer owns any of The Muppets characters, the scenes featuring the fictional "Muppet Studios" in The Muppets were filmed at Jim Henson Studios.

This list excludes pre-2001 Sesame Street co-productions outside the United States.
From 1969 to 2001, Jim Henson Productions contracted to create and provide Muppet characters for Sesame Street. With the exception of occasional appearances in The Muppets franchise, the characters were used exclusively for Sesame Workshop, but The Jim Henson Company technically owned the characters they created. In 2001, Sesame Workshop bought the rights to all Muppets used on Sesame Street, except Kermit the Frog.
After Jim Henson's death, Kermit rarely featured. Because Henson had not created Kermit for the exclusive use of Sesame Workshop and Kermit was the main character of Muppets as well, his case would have required a special agreement. Sesame Workshop owns all footage of Kermit on Sesame Street, and new and previous episodes of Sesame Street can continue to use that footage. This deal ended any affiliation between the Jim Henson Company and Sesame Street.
The deal also ended any direct affiliation between The Muppets and Sesame Street with two exceptions: using many of the same puppeteers, and the agreement that Sesame Street may still use the term "Muppet" from Disney, who holds the trademark to the term. Also, The Jim Henson Company can continue to design and build newer Muppet characters for Sesame Street.[17]

Screen for Life: National Colorectal Cancer Action Campaign
CDC's Screen for Life: National Colorectal Cancer Action Campaign informs men and women aged 50 years and older about the importance of having regular colorectal cancer screening tests.
Screening tests help find precancerous polyps so they can be removed before they have a chance to turn into cancer. This prevents the disease. Screening also can find this cancer at an early stage, when treatment is most effective. However, about one-third of adults aged 50 or older (about 22 million people)—the age group at greatest risk of developing colorectal cancer—have not been screened appropriately.
For an overview of the Screen for Life campaign, download the Screen for Life backgrounder [PDF-790KB]. You may also view the campaign's latest achievements and activities. [PDF-2.8MB]

GET POLITICAL w/VIC LIVINGSTON
JUST THE WEATHER -- OR AN ARTIFICIALLY SPAWNED, PRECISION-TARGETED MICROBURST VORTEX CREATED BY A SCALAR ELECTROMAGNETIC WEAPON SYSTEM MOUNTED ON CELL TOWERS EVERYWHERE (U.S. Patent 7629918, Raytheon, under operational command and control of Lockheed Martin, the world's largest defense contractor)?
The high winds, which literally shook the walls of my house, were preceded by an electric motor-like hum, which grew increasingly louder -- the same phenomenon I experienced during Hurricane Sandy (see: http://viclivingston.blogspot.com/2012/11/frankenstorm-hurricane-sandy-cover-for.html) and last year around the time of the earthquake and tsunami in Fukishima, Japan (see: https://www.facebook.com/vic.livingston/posts/129691690516493). I could hear the limbs of the trees creaking, bending in the wind, what seemed like a mini-tornado. I was terrified, since I live on a heavily wooded lot.
Was this just a passing storm, or was my property (again) targeted by psychopath military operatives of Lockheed Martin, under contract to U.S. agencies and commands, who use the phased array antennae cell tower grid as a weapon with which to assault, impair, torture and terrorize so-called "targeted individuals" -- many, if not most, targeted for who they are or for what they believe?
Here is my account of what happened on Feb. 18th, 2011, when I first realized that psychopaths overseeing a U.S. electromagnetic radio frequency weapon system apparently are using it to alter the weather, providing cover for covert attacks on extrajudicially "targeted" Americans:
by Vic Livingston on Sunday, February 20, 2011 at 10:32am
URGENT TO ALL FEDS: On Friday, Feb. 18, this unjustly "targeted" journalist received threat from "policeman Frank" warning of attack on my person, using phrases such as "weather got windy," "it's going to be rough - you will feel things that you will remember for the rest of your life." Shortly before 6 a.m. the next morning, it felt like a tornado hit. Coincidence, given wind gust warnings? Or is a powerful entity using weather as a WEAPON? For your consideration, these contemporaneous postings from my Facebook pages:
From "Facebook - Vic Livingston" discussion as posted morning of Feb. 19th:
Damien Torres - Lockheed Martin is the number one defense contractor who has several divisions dealing with Aerospace Technology, Satellite Technology, and tons of high-tech stuff. I wouldn't point the finger at them but they do have Lots of classified and interesting stuff they are working on.
Karen Massari - They have 'amazing' technology. definitely worth looking into. And so much goes unnoticed because mainstream media will only report bad news or celebrity news.
James Henry Graf - I've been fortunate. They've messed with my web site apparently only once. There's an advantage in not being taken seriously. The truth hides in plain sight.
Vic Livingston - Like using the microwave weapon system to intensify weather patterns? For example, manipulation of the jet stream to generate high wind gusts, and then operatives can precision-target directed MW energy to create damaging winds in the immediate vicinity of a target's home -- using weather both as a weapon, and major weather patterns as a camouflage for local, precision-targeted attacks. This could explain outbreaks of "thundersnow," or the tornado-strength winds that pushed against my house this morning shortly before 6 a.m. -- with an intensity that felt like a tornado had hit. After after I took steps intended to ensure that authorities review surveillance of Lockheed Martin centcom personnel on duty this early a.m. to determine if this highly plausible theory is true, the tornado-strength winds quickly subsided.
Just coincidence? Possibly. Can I "prove" Lockheed Martin and their Homeland-mil-intel overlords are experimenting with using weather as a weapon? There is much circumstantial evidence to support that contention, and even the U.S. patent for this weapon system mentions the system's ability to "alter atmospheric conditions."
I believe conscientious authorities would learn some shocking truths if they carefully reviewed surveillance of all Lockheed Martin mission and biometrics centcoms.
IN LIGHT OF ABOVE, NOW RE-READ THREATENING COMMENT FROM 'POLICEMAN FRANK,' POSTED HERE YESTERDAY (Feb. 18th, 2011):
Policeman Frank
at 09:01 (PT) on February 18th, 2011
hi scrivener, you still think, I am just an ordinary, rough, corrupt, everyday cop ? Thanks to Alica, former czech spy and my also corrupt friends at one branch of FBI, I am untouchable. Tonight we, are going for a second offensive against you. Tell your wife to sleep in a hotel. Its you, who is the target. We are bored in Veracruz, weather got windy. so we are going to oversee the whole operation with Alica. Get a cold shower and take some valium, pal this day and this night- its going to be rough. You will feel things, that you remember for the rest of your life. good luck !!
Then "Policeman Frank" (or a person(s) using that handle) followed up with three MORE threats:
Policeman Frank
at 15:37 on February 19th, 2011
hallo scrivener ! you survived our training day and thats really something. a little windy, huh... I went fishing with Alica. It was great- little sunny and little windy. We caught tuna fish and a small swordfish. It was alive, when it dropped on the bottom of the boat. I had to crush the head of the creature- bloody bubbles, fun. Tonight and in the morning our people in Philly are going to use mescaline. Mescaline is a drug, when used inside house as areosol spray it can cause very effective hallucinations. so, get ready , pal. by the way I had a dream, that I had breakfast with Hillary Clinton. some croissants, ham and eggs and great coffee. o.k., lets get ready for action, scrivener.
Policeman Frank
at 16:35 on February 19th, 2011
hey, scrivener, if you think last night was bad, try to last till the morning now.. my boys are ready for you, I just gave order to use all available technical means to make you a normal citizen... either they succeed or you disappear !! like a ghost in a movie Ghostwriter. Alica , who sits behind me, approves my every word. you are one sick , bastard filled with hate.. old journalistic whore who must be stopped, scrivener. You dare to say, that I am threatening Mrs. secretary of state?! I have to correct you. Her assistant, Miss Sheila wrote me a letter yesterday. I support State department policies. so do not try to fool your fellow citizens... You are the target, because you are a danger and you spred lies among american public. Was this the daily stuff that they they taught you at KGB? Me and Alica are going to help you. for now and forever. amen. so (sic).
Policeman Frank
at 17:06 on February 19th, 2011
get scrivener now !! how come he can still write? attention: all mobile units, get ready for action. all MW capabilities ready to roll. he has to give up. this crazed KGB mole, trained saboteur and domestic criminal has to be stopped.. there will be reward for the person , who brings this individual to our HQ. good luck.
The threat from "policeman Frank" was posted to the comments section of the latest story at http://NowPublic.com/scrivener and re-posted on my Facebook page. Please see the latest comments to this article, also about Lockheed Martin:
The patent reference to the microwave radio frequency directed energy weapon system's ability to "alter atmospheric conditions" is contained in U.S Patent No. 7629918, held by Raytheon, for the "Multifunctional microwave radio frequency directed energy weapon." Links to that patent contained in my article exposing this weapon system (http://viclivingston.blogspot.com/2011/12/u.html) have been tampered with, sending readers to spoofed pages containing counterfeit, altered text. So I am not providing a link to the patent here. Go to any reputable patent search site and input the patent number. Of course, it's possible that any search for that patent number will now produce a counterfeit document; Lockheed Martin uses algorithms, spoofed pages to manipulate and counterfeit internet pages and/or documents, my research indicates.

Additional Information
Rocky designed these kid's Long Range Western boots with a blend of materials. The trimming and foot are crafted with specially selected full-grain leather; its distressed looking dark-brown hue looks exceedingly nice. The shaft itself has been made out of a synthetic material; while it looks great, it is outstandingly durable and is quite easy to keep clean. Its blue hue and stitching allows the upper to stand out visually but isn't so intense that it would prevent your child from being able to wear these boots on a daily basis. A double row of welt stitching ensures that these 8" boots will have tremendous durability.
The Expansion Fit Seam™ is a groundbreaking feature that allows your child to get these boots on/off easily; the seam enlarges as an ankle is entering or being removed, but closes back, so the feature is obscured while the wearer is walking. The lining within the interior is lightweight and feels soft. Another beneficial feature to have on the inside of these boots is the cushioned insole; its padding will soothe your child's feet and makes these Long Range boots downright comfortable.
Having a full-length EVA midsole is fantastic because it provides additional cushioning and keeps the footwear lightweight. The Long Range rubber outsole is highly durable, has great flexibility, it's comfortable to stand on throughout the day and provides stability. The Long Range heel provides added height, but it still allows your child to maintain a steady stride.
While this is a kid's boot, Rocky designed and assembled this Long Range Western with the same quality materials and craftsmanship that would go into making an adult's cowboy boot. With its stylish look, excellent durability, comforting features and superb outsole, these square-toe boots are perfect for your child!

This Privacy Policy describes how Sitestar Corporation DBA Sitestar.Net (the "Company") collects information from all end users of The Company's Internet services (the "Services")—those who access some of our Services but do not have accounts ("Visitors") as well as those who pay a monthly service fee to subscribe to the Service ("Members")—what we do with the information we collect, and the choices Visitors and Members have concerning the collection and use of such information.
Personal Information The Company Collects and How It Is Used
Introduction The Company collects information in different ways from Visitors and Members who access the various parts of our Services and the network of Web sites accessible through our Service. We use this information primarily to provide a customized experience as you use our Services and, generally, do not share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal information collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure is required by law or other special cases described below.
Registration Members are asked to provide certain personal information when they sign up for our Services including name, address, telephone number, billing information (such as a credit card number), and the type of personal computer being used to access the Services.

However, in instances where The Company and a partner jointly promote the Services, The Company may provide the partner certain personal information, such as the name, address, and username of persons who subscribed to the Services as a result of the joint promotion for the sole purpose of allowing us and the partner to assess the results of the promotion. In this instance, personal information may not be used by the partner for any other purpose.

This aggregated, non-personally identifying information may be shared with third parties.

Adopt Today Campaign
Why you should Adopt Today!
At the City of Bloomington Animal Shelter, there's a doggy with a tail wagging wildly, a kitty purring or a bunny hopping, just waiting for you to give him or her a permanent home. There are many reasons to adopt your pet from the Shelter, and among the most important is that you will save a life of a wonderful, deserving companion animal.
Adoption is a lifelong commitment to providing responsible, loving care and a safe home for an animal. By adopting a pet from the City of Bloomington Animal Shelter, you're reducing the need for euthanasia and supporting the Shelter's quest to reduce pet overpopulation in our community. If you're ready to make the commitment to adopt, then visit the How To Adopt page. Perhaps, you can't adopt right now, but want to help the Shelter in its efforts, then click here to discover the many ways you can help!
Adopt Today! is an educational, awareness-building campaign focused on:
1. increasing adoptions and reducing euthanasia of healthy, adoptable pets at the City of Bloomington Animal Shelter; and
2. enhancing awareness of the multiple benefits associated with making pets part of an active, healthy lifestyle.
3. increasing awareness of the importance of spaying and neutering to help our community curb the pet overpopulation crisis we face.
Did you know that a staggering 4,594 animals were brought into our shelter in 2009? Of those animals only 41 percent were adopted into a loving homes and 35 percent were euthanized. Through Adopt Today! our goal is to change these numbers dramatically.
Many individuals have come out to show support for this meaningful cause, and to help us raise awareness about the Shelter and how important pets are in our lives.
We hope you enjoy the people, places and faces of Adopt Today! Remember to show your support in any way you can: volunteer, attend an event, visit the animals at the Shelter, tell your friends, but most importantly, Adopt!
Mission Statement:
Adopt Today! is a campaign dedicated to promoting the adoption of healthy but homeless animals in the Bloomington-Monroe County area to individuals seeking a loving, lifelong pet.

She aspires to one day become a leading contributor to Bloom Magazine.
Bob and Vicki Wheeler, owners of Meadowood Retirement Community
As we raised a family we felt that having a dog would help to instill the merits of responsible behavior toward living things in our children, in return for the love and joy they give in return. We only adopt pets from shelters as we know that "mutts" as well as purebreds are there, and we recognize that "saving" a dog would bond us deeper, than buying a dog that was bred for sale. We never had regrets at our decision to adopt from a shelter. Pets who are there are "waiting" for a home situation again, or perhaps for the first time. They seem to understand the connection between "shoppers" and their destiny. They give all they have to give as a result.
We have been impressed with the quality of care the animals receive at the City of Bloomington Animal Shelter. Our daughter Jennifer was the first to adopt a dog at the City's Animal Shelter. Her choice was a nearly grown dog called "Buddy" and he became her constant companion after she graduated from college. Buddy lived with her until his death at 13 years of age.
Then our daughter Jill found a dog for us after the death of our family dog. It was Suzie (renamed "Sadie" by us) and she was a hound/setter mix. She reminded us of an Oreo cookie and joined our family around 1995. Sadie knew dog obedience well, to the point that I had to sign up for classes so she could train me! We enjoyed working together so much that I continued in several more classes. Sadie was naturally in obedient and was a wonderful house pet, even though when we adopted her she had never been in the cab of a car, nor allowed in the house, nor gone up stairways, or so many things we took for granted. Eventually she would lay beside the crib of our grandchildren as they napped, and was a constant companion to us all, even traveling with us on trips. I had her tested to become a Therapy Dog with Therapy Dogs International, and she passed with shining colors, so that by 1998 we were visiting nursing homes and a county children's shelter, once a week. Sadie was so well loved and received that it would be hard to imagine what would have become of her, or Buddy, if they hadn't been adopted by us.
The experience we have had with shelter dogs, and right now we have two who came to us in 1997, is that orphaned dogs make the best pets, as they assign to their new owners an almost angelic love, one that is never forgotten by the dog, as they recognize you as the rescuer of their fate. And indeed you become that and more to them. Once you save a pet by bringing it in to your home, training it in dog obedience, feeding it conscientiously, and treating it as a member of the family, there is no other greater satisfaction. The love and companionship the dog offers in return become an element of your life that you can't imagine living without. They live only to serve the family, and their mission is to simply please you.
Animals, I feel, have an inner soul that takes in more than we can understand, and they are deserving of the care we would give a helpless person. The City of Bloomington Animal Shelter understands this, and provides a wonderful shelter where success stories can become the "norm" for homeless animals. We would happily choose our next pet from the shelter, when our home again becomes too quiet from the absence of a beloved pet. We are grateful there are such places for pets, and we support them in their endeavors to make Bloomington more educated in the care of animals.

^^^ Love those spacers Rick!!! ^^^
^^^ Love those spacers Rick!!! ^^^
Yeah, they look pretty cool, but a bit of a pita. That's where I maybe rushed it a bit. Supposed to wait like 6 hours between glue ups before moving on to the next one but I may have been a bit impatient on one of those steps and you can see where the red bolster spaced slipped a little bit. Also, I didn't do such a clean job on the tang under the handle. It's a trouble spot for me with my limited tools so I just asked Dave to clean her up a little and wow. Awesome! Can't wait to get her back!!
Starting this harvest I'm a starving startling artist/
Lyrical arsonist it's arduous spitting this smartest arsenic/
I'm glad that you like the looks of it Rick. She's a high speed operator for sure now.
I have another Hiromoto Performance Package done, this one belongs to James. I thought for sure that this one was going to turn out plain and clearly that's not the case.
Clouds!!!! Awesome.
Starting this harvest I'm a starving startling artist/
Lyrical arsonist it's arduous spitting this smartest arsenic/
Gorgeous! It always amazes me how different each knife turns out.
I was wondering if you have any tips and suggestions for a hidden tang conversion. How much of the tang do you leave for good balance with a stabilized wood?
Here's another 240mm Hiromoto AS that's had the "Performance Package" (blade thinned, spine/choil rounded, etched, & sharpened) done to it.

Graves County High School's Trash to Treasure Recycled Art Contest is an annual, school-wide competition inviting all high school students at all grade levels to make artistic creations from recycled or reused items. The event seeks to educate students and the community about the importance of creatively dealing with the planet's waste issues. The idea is to increase environmental awareness and to encourage recycling and sustainable practices at schools and throughout the community. The creators of the top three pieces are shown here, with their creations, in the Graves County Schools' Performing Arts Center Gallery. They are pictured, from left, as noted here. Juniors Lillie Garner and Kelsey Jackson teamed up to win the contest with "Owl." The artist-partners cut the handle off a shovel and welded on washers, cut a horseshoe in half and cut re-bar into sticks, welded on to the shovel and then welded onto a jack stand and torched the feet out. Finally, they welded on "feathers," comprised of a cut-up metal rake. Sophomore Ashlee Bailey finished as runner-up with "Polka-Dot Chair." She made a box and stuffed it with cardboard. She then made an extended long piece and stuck it in the back of the box for the back of the chair. Finally, she duct-taped the entire chair and painted it blue with white polka dots. Junior Alex Bolin placed third with "Horned Mask." He took a plain, old plastic mask, covered it in aluminum, added texture with hot glue and made the teeth out of hot glue. He attached the teeth and the horns to the mask and then painted it. Finally, he added fabric over the eyes.

# Volunteers Needed:
Supervision of the Minarovich Gallery on Saturdays, so it can be accessible to the public.
Elora is one of Canada's most beautiful villages. For many years, artists of every creative expression have gathered here to paint, compose, sing, dance, sculpt and write.
A group of local residents, many of whom are connected to the artistic community, have come together to create the Elora Centre for the Arts, an arts and cultural centre for everyone in our community and beyond.
The Elora Centre for the Arts is a focal point and driving force for imagination: exciting, expanding and encouraging all forms of creative expression. We currently have artists studios, teaching and rehearsal classrooms, performance space, a gallery and outdoor display areas.
OUR MISSION - It is our mission to nurture the creative spirit; to build an imaginative community, encourage self-reliance, personal growth and transformation through art and make the world a more interesting place. This will be achieved by operating and promoting arts and culture at the community, regional, national and international level.
ARTS FOR EVERYONE - We are paying special attention to our youth, in particular those who have not found their niche in sports and academics, but who have strong creative energies. Here, they will find classes, studio space, peers and mentors to support them. We will capitalize on Elora's reputation as an artistic hub to attract top artists from around the world, to teach and lead master classes and workshops. A broad range of programming and workshops of an international calibre is being offered, including art classes; lectures & discussions; performances and exhibitions; primary & secondary school activities; and visits from the best of the international artistic community.
COMMUNITY BENEFITS - Elora Centre for the Arts has preserved one of our community's most historic buildings, an historic stone building located on a two-acre property in the heart of the village, formerly used as the Elora Junior School. Our Centre contributes to our local economy by attracting national and international tourists; boosting retail, restaurant and accommodation businesses; and building on Elora's reputation as a beautiful tourist destination.

An Enterprise Zone is a defined geographic area in which businesses can claim certain state income tax savings and other advantages. Enterprise Zones were created in California to stimulate business investments in areas that are economically disadvantaged and to spur job growth in areas of high unemployment.
Businesses that operate in an Enterprise Zone (EZ) can claim tax credits for employee wages and manufacturing equipment purchases. Businesses are also offered job referral services, development permit expediting and assistance, tax savings on loans, reductions on certain development fees, and access to specialized technical and financial assistance programs. San Diego's Regional Enterprise Zone is located throughout the City of San Diego including communities in the South Bay area near the U.S.-Mexico border and in portions of the cities of National City and Chula Vista. A special enterprise zone is also located at the Naval Training Center Redevelopment Project Area, which includes Liberty Station, near Downtown.
On Sept. 26, 2013, Governor Brown signed AB 106 into law which includes clean-up language for the ultimate wind down of the State's Enterprise Zone Program.
The bill revised the provisions of AB 93 to allow local Enterprise Zone/LAMBRA entities formerly authorized to issue a hiring credit voucher certificate to continue issuing certificates for one year after the Targeted Tax Areas expire on December 31, 2013. As a result, the San Diego Regional Enterprise Zone (SDREZ) Manager can now continue to accept voucher certificate applications and issue certificates up to, but no later than, January 1, 2015.
Note: Per the approved legislation, voucher certificate applications for employees hired after December 31, 2013 will not be eligible for processing.
For further information regarding the recent EZ legislation, or clarification of the aforementioned deadlines, please contact Kevin Sullivan (SDREZ Manager) at (619) 533-5954 (email@example.com).
Established in 2006, the One Zone is a regional economic development 15-year business tax credit program incorporating portions of the City of San Diego, significant portions of the City of Chula Vista and the City of National City.
The San Diego Regional Enterprise Zone is a designated area within these cities where businesses receive substantial tax breaks and other incentives. Because San Diego's economy is regional in nature, collaborating with other local cities and the state to expand business incentives increases San Diego County's ability to compete with other regions, create new jobs and increase investment in our region.
