UM President reacts to new law banning live-in partner benefits
The University of Michigan's President, Mary Sue Coleman, reacted to Governor Snyder's signature on a piece of legislation that denies health benefits to live-in partners of some public employees.
Governor Snyder said the legislation does not apply to public universities, but some in Michigan's legislature disagree with him.
Here's the letter from Mary Sue Coleman:
To our campus community:
Yesterday Governor Snyder signed legislation that prevents some public employers from offering medical benefits to the domestic partners of public employees, but in doing so he said that university employees are exempt. Based on our analysis, as well as the governor's regarding the state universities' constitutional autonomy, we believe we may continue to provide benefits to other qualified adults in full compliance with the law and will do so.
As you know, we expressed our deep concern regarding House Bill 4770 in a letter to the Legislature last month, and we urged a veto when the bill passed. We know that the competitiveness of our state and our university depends on our ability to attract and retain the very best talent. We were heartened by the strong voices of many business leaders in this state who concur, and together we will work hard to contribute to a vibrant economy and high quality of life for all members of our community.

Holly is so excited to be out and about northern Michigan every morning doing live shots for 7&4 News Today!
WEXFORD -- For many high school students prom is right around the corner, so it is time for ladies to start figuring out what it is that they are wearing to the big event. Many dresses boast the glitz and glamour but also hike up the price tag. Resale and consignment shops like Your Sister's Closet in Cadillac offer a big variety of gently used dressed at a more modest price.
At Your Sister's Closet, pick from their selection or bring in your own dress to be sold and get cash or check or use the money towards a purchase in the store.

Britain finally won its first metal finally -- -- because they weren't just harping on their Apatow why hasn't anybody one metal in 24 hours -- was -- arm instead of you know cyclist.
Who won the silver in the women's road race and the entire country went absolutely -- now.
One businessman a particular was -- very loudly he's the founder of Brockton bicycle that full double bicycle company and he has shed blood sweat and tears.
Just to get this company up and running and continuing to grow and grow and grow now I wanna taking all the way across town to West London.
Where this began as an idea in his living room in the seventies and is now -- shining example of make it in Great Britain.
-- and I want to show you something in this box is a folding bicycle folds up just like this.
And what unfolded.
The Brockton bicycle looks just like this they sell some 30000 of these every year.
But this stands for so much more than just a form of transportation.
Here in London its stance for the fight against outsourcing and the idea that the entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well in the United Kingdom and -- Yeah.
And I loved 1 evening having been another -- would come up with an idea provided -- -- I've always thought that something -- -- hope it would be useful we'll discuss Daniel saw it.
For this.
About the -- of on the picket -- head right maybe we did this that faster results -- Houston convention -- -- -- designed to unite the British school who before.
Experiment to -- together in one place.

And yeah.
Organic I think -- is support that I'm thinking of you could have grown exponentially.
But that might -- -- Brett.

In and out of -- again I guess.
We're managing around 50% -- doesn't sound like much but you don't live replied -- than doubling of the complete change that would be too little new equipment.
Read -- -- respond and that's it leave new kind team's new systems.
It may not sound like back in -- fifth out of law every time you -- it was another tool to break through.

I don't know offensive but extorted millions of festival time to raise money I was talking about it and read in the I think -- -- -- his sources.

That's what he told me some of the retailers are selling import he's the anti CEO so -- -- -- -- -- -- come all the way -- -- we don't deserve the coverage but to us we thought it was such a great entrepreneurial spirit type of story absolutely delightful.

Once a cheater, always a cheater ... so says a former Tiger Woods mistress who tells TMZ Tiger's new GF Lindsey Vonn better know what she's getting herself into.
We spoke to former hooker/porn star/ Devon James -- who tells us she was shocked when she saw the pics of Tiger and Lindsey on Facebook yesterday ... saying, "I thought he would have picked a woman who was more petite and not someone who is more muscular and has a bigger head than his."
James continues, "But maybe his taste has changed since Elin and the 27 mistresses."
"But you know when the pics came out of Tiger and his new girlfriend ... somewhere, 15 other girls were going , 'Huh? I thought I was his GF!'"
Think James has a point ... or is Tiger a changed man?
No one cares what she says, but of course TMZ has to scratch around in the trash for some tidbit to create inflamatory story
A Tiger never changes it's stripes. Lindsey is being foolish if she thinks he won't (isn't) still sleeping with whoever is foolish enough to lay with him.
my buddy's step-mother makes $73/hour on the laptop. She has been fired for five months but last month her pay was $16532 just working on the laptop for a few hours. Go to this web site and read more View More
A bigger head than his????? Wow. Just a bit bitter isn't she. I'm seriously trying to figure out why anyone would pay this woman (James). She's not much to look at.
She sounds like a bitter hag who's trying to get her name back in the spotlight by being a bitch to someone she doesn't even know. Jealous much?

A 20-year-old Cortez man fell off the bow of a 43-foot commercial fishing boat Thursday more than 10 miles offshore of Longboat Key.
Longboat Key Police Chief Al Hogle said the U.S. Coast Guard was handling the search for Michael Taylor because the boat, named Cindy Lee, was located in federal waters.
Hogle said Taylor, who has been missing since Thursday evening, has no connection to Longboat Key.

This is great news. The effect you're talking about is the "rainbow" effect. Most commonly found on early DLP projectors, it's an artifact of showing the red, green and blue components serially (at different times) rather than all at once. If you let your eye move around, you'll see a brief rainbow of RGB wherever there is a high contrast image on the screen. White text on black is the worst, which is why I've always wanted an option to change the text color on the EVF status info. Only about 5% of people are susceptible to the rainbow effect, which makes for fun forum arguments of "that projector sucks and gives me headaches" vs. "no, it's perfect!" -- turns out both sides are right, they are just experiencing different things. Anyway, I'm also highly sensitive to the rainbow effect which has made the original EVF less than ideal for me. Really glad to hear the OLED solves this problem for us 5%! Thanks for the info.
Just for the record Rob Im glad you mentioned this as I see it to and when I asked others they always say it looked fine to them. Im glad Im not crazy and my camera is showing only me something to make me crazy.
Thanks for the update. Im going to be in line to upgrade my viewfinder but I was pretty impressed with the Bomb now.
So no rainbow effect? The original Bomb is useless to me, I just see a colorful mess when I look through one.
Good. Sounds like the new EVF is working. That's great!!!
Ordered mine today... Cant get them quick enough
This was the best unexpected announcement, especially with the Upgrade option. Can't wait to send in this old EVF that has been mostly just sitting on the shelf.
The new OLED bomb is truely great - no doubt. Colors are great, huge improvement and the rainbow effect is gone. Only issue I have with it now is that the eyepiece is a little small for some clients and I'm still having problems getting the eyepiece cushins to stay on (as with the old one).

Hey Guys I've started my second Part of my Thread Part 1:http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/showthread.php?t=155127 So i've enough Money ^^ to buy my Shopping list ,which contains so far: CPU:AMD FX-8120 MoBo: ASUS Sabertooth 990FX RAM:16GB G.Skill RipJaws 1600Mhz And the H80 CPU Cooler
Its Christmas ???? Santa fulfilled my list of presents However, now I am afraid that my PSU couldn't support all those Parts...... Guys what do u Think? R 800 Watts enough?
Lol i like the fact that everyone recommend you Intel's 2500k(in part one) and you bought faildozer haha Still I would love to see the final product
Heh, BD isn't as bad as people make it out to be. I built a system for my cousin with the FX 6200. It wasn't bad at all compared to my 2600k.
Thanks Popcorn Machine 4the fast answer^^ Yeah many guys said that i should buy Intel but i wannaaa try the BD.....If the BD is crap(but i don't thing so^^) i will buy Intel.
Looks like your going to have a great system there. Don't let people discourage you on your choice. We all have opinions. You will see that you will have a pretty nice rig there when your done.
Nice insults! An i5 3570k is only $60 more. And it's a far more superior CPU. (Or even an i5 2500K, only $50 more). An equivalent board in Z77 (Asus P8Z77-V Pro) is only $20 more from a 990X Sabertooth. So overall, $80 more for a system that's 100x better? Is saving $80 really worth the inferior performance? Please, unless you have something educated to say... just don't say anything at all. An AMD Phenom X4 965 is a better CPU than an 8-Core Bulldozer and it costs less. There is literally no justification in buying ANY AMD CPU's, unless you're building it for less than $800. Or for an HTPC. Even then... Intel builds vs. an equivalent AMD build (Intel being $20 to $50 more); Intel always wins.
Thanks Mad Shot ^^ i also thought like that...... Sure everyone said ,,UHH UHH buy Intel`` But i won't i like AMD and also their Products... AND im always happy with this Products.
Hey m8s 2day was the great wedding everything cames ogether and..... it works =D Windows said: Moaaaaar Pics will follow ^^
Get a better HDD and all is good, do not listen to all those intel fanboys...... aslong temps are ok and Rig runs as expected everything is OK Rig is nice... but why didn´t you bought the Crosshair ? dooh
let ppl buy what the wan´t ........ and by your educated answer it´s seems like you read em down from some sort of intel strategy paper.......... and a 965 or 955(i own in my second rig) is from my oppinion not faster ....... @op sorry for that but i hate ppl trying to change ppls mind by given such a useless post nerd
Lol I love how people can turn any thread into a fanboy war.. XD You have a nice rig.. Be happy with it.
He never said that this was a gaming rig. If he is doing anything that uses all 8 threads, it's a perfectly good processor. There is nothing wrong with an FX processor. It's not like it can't play games, and just because it is a little slower at single threaded tasks does not mean it is a bad CPU. All in all, I don't think that the he will be disappointed with it. I'm willing to bet that the FX chip is better at virtualization than a lot of skt1155 chips while still letting you overclock. (I was split between FX and the 3820 for that reason, because skt1155 wouldn't offer VT-d on a K edition chip, where FX and SB-E did.) So don't bash people for preference. I'm sure he has his reasons. It's not like he is buying a Pentium or Sempron.
Omg right after posting my last reply i got an complete crash with a really freaky sound. like GRRRRRRRRRRRBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRBRRRRRRR___________BRRRRR so ive rebooted my PC and BAM Core temp said Core 0 192°C Core 1 32°C Core 2 32°C Core 3 32°C Core 4 32°C Core 5 32°C Core 6 32°C Core 7 32°C 30Minutes l8r is only Core 4 on 192°C and again 30Minutes l8r is Core 2 on 255°C so i dont really iderstand why only 1 Core is so overheaten...... and other Toolz like The ASUS AI Suite or the ASUS Thermal Radar always said CPU:15-40°C so should i trust on the ThermalRadar or should i trust CoreTemp?
Is the system stable after the crash? One core getting hot like that is very odd. I would check the temps using other tools like RealTemp or SpeedFan.

One of the best reasons to spay or neuter your pet is to avoid adding to the problem of pet overpopulation. Every day in the United States, thousands more puppies and kittens are born than are human babies. The result is that there are not enough homes for all these pets. The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) estimates that between 6 and 8 million pets enter animal shelters each year. Of these pets, the HSUS believes that at least half — 3 to 4 million — are euthanized. Many of these animals are young and healthy.

If you are a dog owner, don't forget to keep your pet's health concerns in mind, just as you would the other members of your family.
My dog likes to sneak drinks out of our swimming pool. Will this hurt him?
More than likely you visit the doctor and/or dentist at least once a year. Are you doing the same for your pet? Because cats and dogs age quicker than us, taking them to the veterinary hospital once a year is like you going once in five to seven years!

Unlike most human influenzas, canine flu is not seasonal — it can occur at any time of the year. Canine influenza virus (CIV) was first detected in 2004 in racing greyhounds in Florida. Investigators learned that this new canine influenza developed when an equine influenza virus adapted to infect dogs. This was the first time that an equine influenza virus had been found to "jump" from horses to dogs.
An extensive retrospective study by the University of Georgia analyzes causes of death for dozens of dog breeds.
The scientists looked at data from nearly 75,000 dogs whose deaths were recorded in the Veterinary Medical Database (VMDB) between 1984 and 2004. They categorized the deaths by organ system and pathophysiologic process, and hypothesized that these could be segregated by age, breed and body mass.
My veterinarian has recently started promoting monthly heartworm preventive tablets for my dog and cat. I've also heard that the heartworm medicine used long term may be a greater risk to my pet's health. What should I do?
Are you certain that your dog is protected from heartworm this season?
Although heartworm prevention techniques, including mosquito avoidance and drugs that kill heartworm larvae, have been recommended for years, the number of dogs diagnosed with heartworm continues to increase. One factor that contributes to the persistence of this preventable disease is "prophylactic failure," which means that animals develop the disease even though they received a prophylactic drug to prevent heartworm for at least 1 year or season.
Reddish or brownish discoloration around a white dog's eyes and nose is quite common and normal. It's caused by porphyrinsdpigments found naturally in dogs' tears and saliva, as well as in other body fluids.
My chow chow, Nani, is covered in long, orange fur. I'm not. Children often stop Nani and me on the street to remark on how fluffy she is. No one has ever commented on my fur.
Now, abundant body hair on a human is normally a bad thing, but on below-zero days, I find myself staring enviously at Nani. A quick glance at her thick coat is also a reminder that my canine companion is ready and willing to brave the elements, even if I'm not.
So, on cold winter days, how do I give Nani the exercise she needs without making myself miserable?

When it comes to your pet's food, you spend a lot of time and energy making sure that your pet has a healthy diet. You consider all of the brands, compare labels, debate moist-versus-dry, and consult your veterinarian.
But pets do not live by food alone. An ever-present bowl of clean water may be the most important part of your pet's diet.
Palliative care focuses on managing the pain, lack of appetite, fatigue, nausea or other symptoms your pet may be experiencing from a chronic disease or its treatment. Hospice care, too, looks first to the comfort of the pet—those with a terminal diagnosis and for whom a cure is no longer possible.
Pain management, in particular, is a science that is rapidly evolving. Sometimes just a few small changes in medication can return a pet to being more like its old self. It is still an animal with a fatal disease—but that extra time can be very meaningful.
Parvovirus, a potentially devastating illness that affects dogs, has been widespread since the early 1980s. Dogs that contract the virus and are not properly treated will usually die. Even those that do receive treatment, may not survive. Find out how parvovirus is spread, which dogs are most at risk, and how to keep your pet safe.
More than 85% of dogs over 4 years of age have evidence of periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is a progressive inflammation of the supporting structures surrounding the teeth and is the main cause of early tooth loss.
Toy breeds are at higher risk for periodontal disease because of tooth crowding in the mouth.
Is your cat grooming half of her hair off, or is your dog licking his paws raw? It may well be that your pet is experiencing allergies, one of the most common health problems for pets. Just like people, animals have allergic reactions because their immune system — the system that protects the body from foreign and potentially infectious substances — overreacts to some material. Almost anything — pollen, dust, an ingredient in pet food, a household chemical, an insect bite — can set off an alarm in the immune system, causing it to pump out large amounts of white blood cells, hormones and other material called histamines into the bloodstream.

Imagine making your living training some of the world's most stubborn and unruly dogs. Peering over your shoulder each week are millions of viewers in 40 countries wondering if you or the misbehaving pup will win the battle of wits. Victoria Stilwell, star of Animal Planet's popular television series, "It's Me or the Dog," says the challenge isn't as difficult as it may seem.

You have finally mustered the nerve to carry out the task you've been dreading all week. Nail clippers in hand, you hunt for Fido throughout the house. "I got him.

Pets need professional dental exams and cleanings in order to avoid painful tooth decay and other, related health problems such as heart, lung, and kidney disease. Brushing your pet's teeth is essential, but it isn't enough. Although a basic oral examination can be done on patients that are awake, an anesthetic is required in order to provide a thorough dental cleaning.
Von Willebrand disease is the most common inherited bleeding disorder in dogs. The disease rarely occurs in cats.
Dogs with this disease cannot clot blood normally, which results in bleeding, especially after surgery or trauma. While this disease has occurred in more than 50 different dog breeds, the breeds most commonly affected include Doberman pinschers, German shepherds, golden retrievers, poodles, Shetland sheepdogs, Pembroke Welsh Corgis and the German Shorthaired Pointer.

My dog's nose is turning pink. He drinks from a stainless steel bowl and eats from a ceramic bowl. I got him from a breeder, and both parents have great black noses.

Humane societies and animal shelters play an important role in our communities. AAHA believes that all pets deserve the best care, and so do many humane societies and animal shelters throughout the United States. In fact, 12 veterinary hospitals associated with humane societies and animal shelters in the United States are now AAHA-accredited.
Animals can't tell us where it hurts or how much or in what way, and early signs of discomfort are often subtle and difficult for pet owners to detect. That is why veterinary professionals at AAHA-accredited animal hospitals take an "every patient, every day" approach to pain assessment.
My dog has just been diagnosed with a ruptured cruciate ligament on his hind leg. Who should do the surgery? And what can I expect after the surgery to fix it?
My dog's eyes are becoming cloudy. Is there anything I can do? Is this a cataract? If so, how is my dog treated?
Benjamin Hart, DVM, PhD, who has studied animal behavior for almost 50 years, says that one of the questions he hears most frequently from pet owners is: "Why does my dog eat grass?"
Thinking about giving your pet an aspirin to ease its pain? Think again! Human painkillers including ibuprofen, aspirin and acetaminophen can be dangerous and even deadly to animals. Though acetaminophen can ease a human tension headache, one tablet of 500 mg extra strength acetaminophen can kill a 7-pound cat. Human medications are not designed for the animal body, and can have deadly effects when given to pets. Veterinarians can help prescribe the right dose and type of medication for your pet when it is in pain. Visit HealthyPet.com to find an accredited veterinarian near you.

"The deserted halls... The blank stares... The fading hope... When will we ever be saved from this damned place?"
-The diary of Johnny Samson; Known victim #13
Welcome aboard our vessel, the Azure Titan. This is your captain speaking. We're only a short while from departure, but before we begin our journey, there are just a few things we must review.
1: Follow your captain's orders. You're free to your own opinion, and I'll listen to any issues, but this is my boat and my word is law. If you don't like it, you're free to disembark and seek a refund.
2: No fighting amongst passengers. This is a luxury liner, not a smuggler ship. Anybody caught fighting will be detained and charges will be pressed upon our return to the States.
3: No illegal substances or weapons (godmod/powermod). Any person caught in possession of or using an illegal substance or weapon will be detained and charges pressed upon return to the States.
4: One must fill out the proper paperwork in order to disembark from our vessel at any stop.
5: Do not interfere with any of the staff's work.
Now, one last formality before we may be underway. Every passenger aboard our ship must fill out an identification sheet in case of emergency.
Appearance(picture will do fine):
Occupation: (If your character is a passenger, put that as well. If your character is part of the ship's staff, just put their occupation!)
Emergency Contact: (basically any family or friends also aboard the ship)
(From this point on is only OoC until we get to the point that it's needed.)
Fighting experience and training:
Other useful skills and/or attributes:
Important Items:
Brief history:
And anything else you deem important enough to share with us!
(Because of the fact that there is a high likelihood of character death in this roleplay, you are in no way limited to playing a single character. In fact, I highly encourage you to play multiple characters so long as you can play them to your satisfaction.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So, my idea is pretty simple but it could be fun. It got a lot of interest in the first interest check I put out but when it came to the IC no one posted.
You will all be playing as customers or staff on a cruise ship set out from Key Largo on a round trip voyage around the world with multiple stops at some of the world's most popular vacation places. Somewhere along the line, a beast of unknown nature sneaks aboard, be it a Vampire stowing away, a newly infected werewolf returning to their voyage, or some other type of creature?
So like I said, it's pretty simple. But the good news for you is, on top of accepting player applications, I'm also accepting monster suggestions. Anyone who can suggest a monster that I like the most for this might get to play it as a character!
Eh? Ehhh?

With its food courts, arcades, and people-watching spots, the mall is a familiar and ideal place to escape from your day-to-day grind (unless you work there!). Still, very few people have ever witnessed what occurs in a department store once the lights go out. For that reason, it's awesome that The O.C.'s "The Mallpisode", grants us an all-access pass to the shopping center amusements that come alive after hours!
Turns out that there's a wealth of activities to keep you entertained, should you get trapped in a mall overnight. And thanks to Seth, Ryan, Marissa, and Summer's nocturnal escapades, we uncovered some solid tips on how to enjoy yourself until the morning light.
- Get some fresh air: Exploring the inner-workings of a store's vents might yield some surprising results.Seth and Ryan crawled through the maze of air conditioning tunnels in hopes of finding a way to escape the mall, but instead they ended up literally falling into the next phase of their adventure.
- Play without restraint: Without an audience, referee, or scoreboard, our four campers were free to battle each other in an unrestricted game of roller hockey. And since there were no true "out of bounds" markers, Summer and Marissa showed off their athleticism by aggressively pursuing the ball – even when it bounced down the store's escalator.
- Gather 'round the (demo) campfire: While Ryan and Marissa rekindled their flame in a deluxe tent, Seth and Summer got heated over their apparent trust issues. Okay, so the pseudo-outdoors portion of the evening had it's bumpy moments, but wasn't the idea of the couples toasting s'mores over the faux fire beyond cute?
Have you ever spent the night in a public location? What'd you do to stay alert/alive?

The Great Spotted Woodpecker, Dendrocopos major, is a bird species of the woodpecker family (Picidae). It is distributed throughout Europe and northern Asia, and usually resident year-round except in the colder parts of its range. It is not considered a threatened species by the IUCN, being widely distributed and quite common. A significant recent increase in the British population has been suggested as the cause of the recolonisation of Ireland.

Purchasing Card
The University uses a purchasing card credit card program for the purchase of goods and services, which is the preferred method for purchasing. You can view your purchasing card activity online using PNC Active Pay
Related Documents
Other Purchases & Checks
Checks are processed (other than payroll) on every Friday, excepting University recognized holidays. In the event of a university-recognized holiday, check processing will be delayed until the following week. Checks are available for pick up after 2:00 pm each Friday. The business office will make every attempt to include check requests received by noon on Wednesday in that weeks check run. To ensure that your check request is processed in that weeks check run; it needs to be delivered to the business office by 4:00 pm on Monday.
Payments for services (not reimbursements) to individuals not in the University employ must be accompanied by a W-9 Request for Taxpayer ID. This is a substitute form used by the University to collect information required by Ohio's New Hire reporting. Payment requests for these individuals must be accompanied by the University form to be processed.
Travel and Entertainment Expenses
University policy on travel and entertainment expense has been developed within the constraints and guidelines set forth by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
It is expected that all faculty, staff and students will exercise adequate care in incurring travel expenses. Only actual expenses incurred will be reimbursed. It is the responsibility of each individual incurring such expenses as well as the individual approving such expenses to comply with the University's policies and procedures. All reimbursements must have the approval of the immediate supervisor or appropriate VP.
IRS regulations require that employers have an "Accountable Plan" for the reimbursement or payment of business expense for employees. An "Accountable Plan" must include requirements for proper substantiation, a bona fide business connection and a timely return of amounts in excess of expenses. Payments not meeting these requirements would be considered taxable wages to the individual receiving the funds. The University would be required to treat these funds as subject to income tax withholding and pay FICA, Medicare and other applicable taxes on these amounts. Consequently, the University will only reimburse individuals for expenses that meet the requirements of an "Accountable Plan."
This is applicable to all University representatives regardless of the source of funds supporting such travel. It extends to all University representatives seeking reimbursement for meals, alcohol, and entertainment, even if travel is not involved. Purchases with the University purchasing card (p-card) are also subject to these rules.
The Expense Reimbursement form is to be used by employees to account for expenses while traveling on University business and to professional meetings. The guidelines are not intended to impose an undue burden or limitation on the individual, but are intended to maintain adherence to IRS regulations, University independent auditors and the Board of Trustees.
A Freqently asked questions page has answers to many questions including:
Fiscal Agent Services
The University serves as fiscal agent for several government and local programs. As fiscal agent, we receive the funds from the granting agency and manage the disbursement of these funds in coordination with the program coordinator. Information about these programs is located here.

The Blue Star Memorial Program honors service men and women. This program began with the planting of 8,000 Dogwood trees by the New Jersey Council of Garden Clubs in 1944 as a living memorial to veterans of World War II. In 1945, the National Council of State Garden Clubs adopted the program and began a Blue Star Highway system, which covers thousands of miles across the Continental United States, Alaska and Hawaii. A large metal Blue Star Memorial Highway Marker was placed at appropriate locations along the way.
The program was expanded to include all men and women who had served, were serving or would serve in the armed services of the United States. Memorial Markers and By-Way markers were added to the Highway Markers, to be used at locations such as National cemeteries, parks, veteran's facilities and gardens. The Blue Star became an icon in World War II and was seen on flags and banners in homes for sons and daughters away at war, as well as in churches and businesses.
This program has been active all through the years to the present, a fitting tribute always and especially now. Many states and regions have been very dedicated, but there is room for growth in some areas.
Effective May 1, 2012
Additional West Coast Shipping Fee $50.00 - ONLY for LARGE Memorial and Highway Markers (Any location west of MN, IA, MO, AR, LA western state lines)
Cost to RESTORE a LARGE Blue Star Memorial and Highway Marker - $800 (includes round-trip delivery) You must call SEWAH STUDIOS direct at 740-373-2087 to arrange pick-up (there is NO order form for restoration).
By-Way Markers cannot be refurbished--a new one must be ordered.
Please Note--Restoration is the ONLY time that clubs may call Sewah Studios--all other call go through the NGC Chairman.
Contact the NGC Blue Star Memorial Chairman Andrea Little for more information.
Allow eight weeks for delivery after the studio receives your order. If you have a specific dedication date set, be sure to allow plenty of time to be certain you will have the marker by that date. Have someone open and inspect the marker as soon as it is received. If you have it delivered to a business, impress on them that if it is stored unopened, then later found to be damaged, SEWAH STUDIOS will not accept responsibility. It must be reported to them immediately. After your marker is installed, Sewah suggests the bolts be filed down so they cannot be easily removed. Two markers have been taken and sold for scrap. SEWAH STUDIOS no longer has paint information for NGC. They use a special blend, and it cannot be duplicated. Please do not call Sewah to request it. Many clubs tell me they go to an automotive repair shop and get the paint. When filling in the forms please type if possible or print legibly. We have had several problems due to illegible handwriting. Please check the condition of the older markers in your state and have them re-furbished if necessary. When SEWAH returns them, you will think you have a brand new marker, or you can attempt to do it yourself Small clubs who would like to dedicate a marker or re-furbish an existing one, but cannot afford the cost, try contacting your Veteran's organizations, i.e. American Legion, VFW, DAV, etc. They appreciate our markers and usually are glad to help. Be sure to invite them to take part in your dedication ceremony. Invite the high school students to help you--they will never forget it.

I would suggest that you take a couple of evenings and read about the accidents that are being talked about.
Concentrate on just the accidents and you will get an eyeful.
Safety starts at the top.
Unless the owners believe that the most important thing that goes out of the yard every day are the workers your not there yet.
It's a whole culture thing. It does no good to preach safety daily and when the pressure is on throw caution to the wind.
The owners have to "walk the walk and talk the talk".
Linemen are smart and they'll spot a phony in a New York minute.
The supervisors have to ensure that the company policy is followed regardless of the time schedules.
You better have good safety rules and make the workers follow them.
Those who don't follow them go down the tracks kicking stones. Otherwise you'll be planting them.

ONONDAGA COUNTY -- Chief John Balloni, with the Onondaga County Sheriff's Department, told the Onondaga County Legislature's Public Safety Committee on Wednesday that they are struggling with wait time for pistol permits.
The wait is about 14 months from applying for a pistol permit until the processing begins.
According to New York State law, obtaining a pistol permit requires a criminal background check, character references, a hand gun safety course and other requirements.
Balloni says they have several extra people working to process the permits in hopes of relieving the backlog.
He says they are looking forward to a new computerized system that will alleviate the wait times.
In it's last meeting, the County Legislature made a commitment to eventually bring the wait times down to two 2 months.
The pistol licenses in Onondaga County are administered by the Sheriffs Department.

You're right. The only one who should tell me what to put on my tits is you, for I am an ignorant fool who can't make her own choices. DIAF.
I would call that elevator a lot of things—heavy? imposing? showoffy?—but I'm not sure that rickety would be one of them. I've stayed in two rooms at the Gladstone, the better of which had a really great photo in the bathroom of a squirrel shooting lasers out of its eyes. I've been meaning to find out who did it for, um, four months now.
Kirsch didn't mention the Carlton Arms art hotel on 25th and Third Ave near Baruch College... that's a real quirky "art hotel." Worth mentioning.

She also needs to lose about 45 lbs!
Were you present for the whole tribute? Temple's set just seems to be the first you saw, as both Adam Schatz and Low Anthem surpassed his contributions (at least to me).
There are a million words that are used for emphasis. We don't need another.
How are people supposed to express this idea now? "I non-figuratively ran into the wall"?
It is pure ambiguity to allow its use both ways. If it can mean, "non-figuratively" and also be used for emphasis, than there is no way to know what the word means in any given context.
"I literally walked on the moon". "Wow, were you an astronaut"? "No, of course not, I was just using the word for emphasis." How absurd, and figuratively stupid.
The "War on Marijuana" has been a complete and utter failure. It is the largest component of the broader yet equally unsuccessful "War on Drugs" that has cost our country over a trillion dollars.
Instead of The United States wasting Billions upon Billions of more dollars fighting a never ending "War on Marijuana", lets generate Billions of dollars, and improve the deficit instead. It's a no brainer.
The Prohibition of Marijuana has also ruined the lives of many of our loved ones. In numbers greater than any other nation, our loved ones are being sent to jail and are being given permanent criminal records which ruin their chances of employment for the rest of their lives, and for what reason?
Marijuana is way safer, and healthier to consume than alcohol. Yet do we lock people up for choosing to drink?
Marijuana is the safest and healthiest recreational substance known to man, with many wonderful medical benefits as well.
Even The President of the United States himself has used marijuana. Has it hurt his chances at succeeding in life? If he had gotten caught by the police during his college years, he may have very well still been in jail today! Beyond that, he would then be fortunate to even be able to find a minimum wage job that would consider hiring him with a permanent criminal record. Let's end this hypocrisy now!
The government should never attempt to legislate morality by creating victim-less "crimes" because it simply does not work and costs the taxpayers a fortune.
Marijuana Legalization Nationwide is an inevitable reality that's approaching much sooner than prohibitionists think and there is nothing they can do to stop it!
Legalize Nationwide! Support Each and Every Marijuana Legalization Initiative!
That's awesome. I found a hilarious and awkward interview of Steve Albini. Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUl3tdVIl9A
Well, I am surprised here because now lots of nations are going to ban on Electronic Cigarette. I am not getting a pleasant reason for that. Although, E-cigarette contains less nicotine rather than traditional cigarette.

Well, I think I need to comment on this article - replace Westgate with SandyHook. Will you make the same argument? This is simply a case on picking on the weak and powerless. There is a real big problem in seeing violence when there is a doube standard and when victims family learn about the shooting through television and they see photos of their loved ones dead and with head shots - In what other context would this be okay? Sandy Brook? Virginia Tech, to date not photos of these victims is in circulation readily by the major papers ... this issue also needs to be understood in the context of violence perpetrated on certain peoples - the poor and the rest of the third world... why do those in the west get to decide who's dead bodies are fodder for the photographers? It also needs to be interrogated through the prism of the 'white savior complex' - we are going to save Africa from violence by publishing insensitive photos. See counter arguments on my blog post http://www.africaontheblog.com/publishing-insensitive-photographs-of-westgate-mall-massacres-victims/
What a horrible review. This guy talks about this film from a pseudo-intellectual perspective that completely misses the intention of this film. It disgusts me.
The film CBGB is a way of honoring what Hilly Crystal created, in his own crazy, no holds barred style. It is fun, off beat, wacky, and exciting--just like Hilly and CBGB. How do I know? I worked for Hilly and designed his accessories. I also came close to arranging a deal with Asian investors to open a CBGB in Vegas about 15 years ago. I am not, however, defending this film simply because I knew Hilly. I am defending it because it is art, and it is great entertainment. If you watched this film and you didn't laugh your ass off, and feel inspired by the sheer hutzpah of this guy--then you are a pretentious ass. I think the clip near the end of the film, when David Byrne and the rest of the Talking Heads--when being inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame--spent their entire stage time bringing Hilly up on stage and proclaiming and thanking him for all that he has done for music (and them, of course!)--this is the point of the film. It honors Hilly, and the thousands of bands and club goers who together brought about a new sense of possibility with music. Go see CBGB for the history, go see it for the kitsch, see it for the music, and the fun, and at the end...say a little thank you in your heart to Hilly, cause he changed your life whether you've known it or not.
Whatever happened to downtown records, upstairs record, downstairs records and Irie Ike's in NYC?
The Thing in brooklyn..every piece $2 ea. I remember New York Spotlight and sound in Columbus. If you are in eastern Ohio why not make a day trip to "Jerry's Records in Pittsburgh? It is a huge organized vinyl paradise right in your own backyard. Most record store success comes from the buyers luck. I just depends on what you're looking for i guess

State Road 87 will remain SR 87 for the foreseeable future after a bill was dropped during the legislative session that would have changed the designation of a portion of the street to Florida's Beaches and Rivers Parkway.
The bill came in response to many tourism officials believing visitors were passing up the area after hurricanes Ivan and Dennis, followed by the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill, impacted the area. Members of theTourist Development Council of Santa Rosa County were hoping that perhaps a name change for the strip of SR 87 between U.S. Highways 90 and 98 would attract more attention, according to Kyle Holley, a member of the north end committee of the TDC.
Holley said the council wanted to draw more attention to Navarre Beach specifically because many people weren't even aware it existed. However, due to the fact Navarre is not incorporated, they could not put Navarre Beach on the signs. Instead they decided on Beaches and Rivers Parkway.

Side Dishes: Mad River Valley Localvore Project donates to Pete's Greens
It was clear that Bid for the Barn [1] was a success when donations continued to trickle in even after bidding in the online auction ended on Sunday, January 23. The goal was to raise money to help Pete's Greens [2] farm in Craftsbury rebuild the barn it lost in a fire last month. By the end of the auction, 336 items had been on the block, most of which were bought for well more than their stated value. A dinner for two at Hen of the Wood at the Grist Mill [3] brought in 489 percent more than its actual worth.
According to organizer Robin McDermott of the Mad River Valley Localvore Project, [4] when bids were tallied on the evening of January 30, the grand total was $64,669. Some "backroom bidding" on Monday brought the final donation to $65,119. If all goes well, the Craftsbury farm will have little trouble paying for new facilities.

I said it again the other day, but then I had second thoughts. "Everyone's entitled to their own opinion," I said, but is that really true? Have you ever thought about the full range of opinions we're implicitly endorsing by saying everyone is entitled to believe whatever they believe?

What I did this weekend
Some of you may be wondering what I'm doing with all that free time now that I'm not slaving away over laboriously hand-typed blog posts. Well, here's a partial answer.
Life After Jesus (Teaser) from Deacon Duncan on Vimeo.

The dreaded burnout
I guess I can't deny it: I've hit the wall again. I've come to dread the thought of writing another blog article, even if it's only once per week. It's time for a hiatus.
I've had this sort of experience before, and it generally resolves on its own after a while. Basically, what I'm going to do at this point is blog only when I feel like blogging. Given the current state of my feelings, that's likely to be fairly rare, at least in the near term. But an explicit lack of commitment is part of what gives me room to regenerate. So with apologies to my readers and the FtB blog network, I'm hitting the "on hold" button, at least for now.

Wielding your sword by the blade
For this week's installment of Pastor Feinstein's presuppositional apologetics, I actually find a point the Pastor got right. Only one, though—the rest of the time his reasoning is more like a man trying to do battle using a sword with no hilt.

Shells and switches
One of the most important reasons why creationism does not belong in the classroom is because creationism promotes superstitious thinking, which is the antithesis of scientific thinking. Trying to think superstitiously about science really screws things up, and in today's excerpt from Pastor Stephen Feinstein's reply to Russell Glasser, we find an almost prototypical example.
Feb 03 2013
The Gypsy Curse
Over at Evangelical Realism, we're continuing our look at Pastor Stephen Feinstein's debate with Russell Glasser, and I I can't help but think of a post I did a few years ago about Jesus and the Gypsy Curse.
It's like a scene from an old B-grade black-and white horror flick: Jesus is walking down some dank alleyway in Jerusalem and carelessly bumps into an old gypsy woman, knocking her in the mud and muck, and then thoughtlessly laughing at her misfortune. Her deepset eyes blaze, and she scowls at him. "A curse upon you," she mutters. "From now on, your followers and supporters will be unable to accuse their critics of any fault or fallacy without being guilty of the same thing themselves." He, like all B-grade movie heroes, doesn't take her seriously until her curse starts coming true. Only then does he realize, to his horror, that the curse is inexorable, inescapable, and infallible.
Yeah, cheap entertainment, but if you enjoy that sort of thing, come on over, we've got lots.

Mayberry Machiavellis
While I'm currently snowed under (literally and figuratively), here's some interesting reading, from Religion Dispatches, on George W. Bush's first "faith czar," and his praise for Obama's faith-based initiatives.
John J. DiIulio, the first director of George W. Bush's White House Office of Faith-Based Initiatives, has taken to the Washington Post to laud President Obama's White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships. In it, he cutely claims to like Obama's director of the faith-based office, Joshua DuBois, better than "Bush's first 'faith czar.'"
Less than a year into his own tenure, DiIulio resigned in disgust, and complained about Bush staffers who sought to dole out favors to religious conservatives rather than serve "compassionate conservativism." He notoriously coined the term "Mayberry Machiavellis" to describe Bush insiders, who, in relation to faith-based legislation, "winked at the most far-right House Republicans" in attempting to pass legislation for the faith-based office. That bill, which went nowhere, was drafted because Bush staffers thought it "satisfied certain fundamentalist leaders and Beltway libertarians."
It's an interesting read, especially in light of frequent accusations that Obama is somehow anti-religion (whilst simultaneously being Muslim, Nazi, Socialist, and Communist, hmmm).
Feb 02 2013
Format change
Just a quick note: I'm switching to a more-or-less weekends only format, due to my day-job requirements. Much as I love blogging, I have to have weekdays clear to focus on my profession and still leave some time for myself and my family. I might be able to squeeze in a weekday post now and then if time permits, but for now I'll probably end up writing here on Saturdays, and at Evangelical Realism on Sundays, and that will be pretty much it.

What the hell? I love the Original Cast.
So now I read the news that the new season for American Horror Story would mean a new set of cast and a new haunted house/building. I don't like it. I was patiently waiting for the new season hoping to see more of Tate/Violet and the demon baby. Now, they're ruining it. And get this, it would be like this for every new season. Technically, a whole new plot and story. I hate that. I really really am pissed Mr. Ryan Murphy. :|

Amazing Living room: Beige, Blue and Turquoise!
September 22, 2011 in Beige, Blue, Bright, Classic, Coastal, Feminine, Floral, Hottest Designers, Living room, Mood Board, Steal the Style, Turquoise
Well hi there! I'm super excited to share this gorgeous living room today. It's the work of Lynn Morgan, and great work it certainly is! Starting with a neutral palette of beige and white, Lynn created an oasis of lovely blues and turquoise – and all tones, tints and shades in between. To tie the fresh accent colors to the neutral background, Lynn opted for floral and leaf print fabrics, representing both color extremes.
Viewed from this angle you can see how much depth this color combination of blues and turquoise, creates. Very visually pleasing and interesting, but calm and relaxed at the same time.
Lynn's attention to details makes all the difference. See the shelving unit with the blue painted back? Scroll back to the former photo and see how it brightens up that corner of the room.
The sunroom showcases how wonderfully well the rich blue color works as a neutral on furniture, when paired with light and bright colors. Did you notice the same blue color was used on all the side tables in the living room? I simply love it! Do you?

Green Square
Green Square news
Get to know your Green Square community
Find out more about the improvements to the Tote
Major redevelopment site
The $8 billion Green Square project is transforming the southern precinct of our local area into a vibrant and sustainable urban environment. From its industrial past, Green Square is emerging as a place of innovative housing design, bespoke business and retail, and creative and engaged communities, proud of their area's past and future.
Green Square is set to become a true exemplar of green living with developments linked to recycled water, people linked to shops, parks, gardens and entertainment with bike and walking routes and public transport.
The Green Square redevelopment area is 278 hectares and includes the suburbs of Beaconsfield and Zetland, and parts of Rosebery, Alexandria and Waterloo. It is just 3.5 kilometres from the city centre and 4 kilometres from the airport.
The City's role in Green Square is to ensure planning controls allow for growth and development that is sustainable, innovative and respects the character of existing neighbourhoods. Our role is to also ensure the growing Green Square population has access to quality community facilities, parks, and transport links – essentially, building the heart of Green Square.
About 5,700 new homes have been built since 2000, bringing in close to 11,000 more residents. By 2030, Green Square is expected to attract 40,000 new residents and 22,000 new workers.
Green Square town centre is the major focus with the new retail, cultural and commercial hub centring around the Green Square train station.
A 10-year plan has been set out including infrastructure, a health and recreation centre and other community venues.
The town centre
Green Square town centre will be a new commercial, retail and cultural hub for the Green Square area. It will be a vibrant and active place where people will live, work, shop, dine out, and enjoy a range of cultural activities.
When the town centre is complete, it will have the potential to accommodate approximately 6,800 residents and 8,600 workers.
A large part of the town centre is being delivered by Urban Growth NSW and the Green Square Consortium, a joint venture between Mirvac Projects and Leighton Properties.
Green Square Library and Plaza
Over 160 architects from around the world entered a design competition in 2012 to create a new library and plaza for Green Square.
The results were stunning – reflecting a range of visions for the new town centre, and a new way of seeing libraries as 'urban living rooms'.
Our expert jury chose 5 finalists and the winning design has been announced.
The City has set aside $40 million for the 3000-square metre library and 4200-square metre plaza.
Together, they will provide a flexible range of spaces to fit books, performances, meetings, technology and events.
We are now working with the architects to refine the concept design for the library and plaza.
A creative hub
The former South Sydney Hospital site is set to become the creative heart of Green Square, with historic buildings to be restored into community facilities.
The hub will have places to perform, rehearse, practice and meet, including creative art spaces, studios, exhibition areas and a community shed.
The site will also have new community facilities for the Green Square area including a child care centre with a capacity for 60 children, a community hall, a specialist medical centre and a park. Affordable housing will also be located on the site. The full master plan for the site is available for download below.
Health and recreation
A new aquatic centre and multi-purpose sports field will be built in the Epsom Park Precinct on Joynton Avenue, opposite the South Sydney Hospital site. There will be a 50-metre pool, a 25-metre pool, a hydrotherapy pool and a waterplay area.
The centre will include a rehab gym, underground parking, café and a crèche. The new 1.6-hectare Gunyama Park will include a children's playground, circuit training and a multi-purpose synthetic playing field.
Parks and open spaces
A new 6,500 square metre park will be built in the town centre, named the 'Drying Green'. A larger park of 15,500 square metres, 'Gunyama Park', will be in the Epsom Park precinct in Zetland.
A smaller park will be created on the former South Sydney Hospital site, with other parks to be built near McPherson Lane, Joynton Avenue and O'Dea Avenue.
Green infrastructure
The City has signed an agreement with Green Square Water, part of Flow Systems Pty Ltd, to supply recycled water to thousands of future residents in the Green Square town centre. The system will capture stormwater, purify it on site, and then send the water to households for clothes washing and toilet flushing, and to parks for irrigation.
A DA has been approved for a building on the former hospital site to house a trigeneration plant. A trigeneration engine runs on natural or renewable gases and produces low-carbon electricity, heating and air-conditioning for connected buildings.
Building community
Green Square is the fastest growing area in the City's local area – new families are moving in every day, while residents in long-established suburbs like Rosebery have lived there for many generations. The City is working to ensure this diverse community has opportunities to create and build connections and explore their interests.
Our community development coordinator Cara Wood is your key community contact for Green Square. She can proivide you with information on community groups and programs, grants, partnerships and events. Contact Cara via email email@example.com or call 9265 9252.
The City has no authority over bus, light rail or rail planning, but we continue to support the State Government in delivering quality public transport to Green Square. A major part of this work is the creation of the Eastern Transit Corridor, a reliable and efficient public transport service for residents and businesses in the Green Square Train Station catchment area. The City continues to advocate for a light rail connection between the city centre and Green Square – we believe light rail is a more sustainable option and will reduce traffic in the area.
Planning and private development
A major part of the City's role in Green Square has been to ensure planning controls allow for appropriate growth and development. Our planning controls seek to provide housing and workplaces for a growing population while ensuring development is sustainable, innovative, and respectful of existing neighbourhoods.
The following pages contain key planning documents and information for developers:
- Green Square town centre
- Epsom Park Precinct
- Lachlan Precinct, Waterloo
- North Rosebery Precinct
- Affordable housing
- Employment lands study
You can also view the development applications for Green Square currently on exhibition.
Leading by design
From lively plazas to hidden gardens, public spaces are the key to transforming a place into a neighbourhood. Our design team has worked to ensure the public spaces of Green Square will be welcoming, adaptable, community-focussed and well-designed. Our public domain strategy, available to download below, is a source of reference for developers and provides guidance on street design, public art, sustainable design, plants and trees, lighting, access and recognising heritage.
The City's public art strategy for Green Square looks at similar developments around the world and the important role art plays in creating a sense of place and connecting community to a development. Our Green Square Curatorial Advisor Amanda Sharrad will implement the plan with a range of permanent installations and temporary art projects.

16 CFR 460.12 - Labels.
§ 460.12
If you are a manufacturer, you must label all packages of your insulation. The labels must contain:
For batts and blankets of any type: the R-value, length, width, thickness, and square feet of insulation in the package.
For all loose-fill insulation: the minimum settled thickness, initial installed thickness, maximum net coverage area, number of bags per 1,000 square feet, and minimum weight per square foot at R-values of 13, 19, 22, 30, 38, and 49. You must also give this information for any additional R-values you list on the chart. Labels for these products must state the minimum net weight of the insulation in the package. You must also provide information about the blowing machine and machine settings used to derive the initial installed thickness information.
For boardstock: the R-value, length, width, and thickness of the boards in the package, and the square feet of insulation in the package.
For aluminum foil: the number of foil sheets; the number and thickness of the air spaces; and the R-value provided by that system when the direction of heat flow is up, down, and horizontal. You can show the R-value for only one direction of heat flow if you clearly and conspicuously state that the foil can only be used in that application.
For insulation materials with foil facings, you must follow the rule that applies to the material itself. For example, if you manufacture boardstock with a foil facing, follow paragraph (b)(3) of this section. You can also show the R-value of the insulation when it is installed in conjunction with an air space. This is its "system R-value." If you do this, you must clearly and conspicuously state the conditions under which the system R-value can be attained.
For air duct insulation: the R-value, length, width, thickness, and square feet of insulation in the package.
The following statement: "R means resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power."
If installation instructions are included on the label or with the package, add this statement: "To get the marked R-value, it is essential that this insulation be installed properly. If you do it yourself, follow the instructions carefully."
If no instructions are included, add this statement: "To get the marked R-value, it is essential that this insulation be installed properly. If you do it yourself, get instructions and follow them carefully. Instructions do not come with this package."
