Extremely comfortable
I am 17 and work at Whataburger. I have a metal plate in my ankle and no arch on my feet. I'm also overweight aka my feet are usually killing me. I had some dr. Scholl's careers shoes and bought gel insoles to put in them. by the end of my shift my feet were in so much pain and my ankle was swollen. They swell whenever I stand for extended periods of time though. I was trying to switch it up, but obviously I can only trust my crocs. once I broke them in they were very comfortable but I thought I could get better. Now I know I cant not even. Dr. Scholl's can surpass these shoes. Maybe one day I can find shoes that take all the pain away.

Resident of the beach-side suburb of New Brighton, Julian Sanderson, searches for personal items through the remains of his house, destroyed by Tuesday's earthquake, in Christchurch February 25, 2011. International rescue teams searched through the rubble of quake-ravaged Christchurch on Friday for more than 200 people still missing, but rain and cold were dimming hopes of finding more survivors in the country's worst natural disaster in decades.

In China the word Jasmine has taken on a new meaning. For most it means a flower or tea; to the authorities it means dissent and potential danger to the given order. Social networkers have called for a "Jasmine Revolution" in China inspired by the demonstrations in the Middle East. The government's response was swift, crushing any demonstrations, which are now planned on a weekly basis. The word Jasmine was blocked on the China internet as was the professional social network service LinkedIn. Photographers Carlos Barria, David Gray and Aly Song were quickly onto the streets to cover the demonstrations being snuffed out by the authorities. Communist party officials' were quick to blame the unrest on "hostile western forces". What fascinates me about these three pictures is the calm look on the faces of the protesters. I suppose one has to wonder if these lone activists have been released from custody and if not what conditions they are being held under now and for how long.
A man is arrested by police after internet social networks called to join a "Jasmine Revolution" protest in front of the Peace Cinema in downtown Shanghai February 20, 2011. Chinese President Hu Jintao called on Saturday for stricter government management of the Internet while calls for gatherings inspired by uprisings in the Middle East spread on Chinese websites abroad. The messages have scant chance of inspiring protests in China whose one-party government has plenty of censorship controls in place and where most Chinese have difficulty gaining access to overseas websites because of a censorship "fire wall."

STATE OF ARIZONA Title XX Social Services Block Grant Plan July 1, 2003 ? June 30, 2004 Introduction This document provides information on the types of activities supported and the categories or characteristics of individuals served under the provisions of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981, Public Law 97-35, Subtitle C - Block Grants for Social Services, which amends Title XX of the Social Security Act. The Arizona Department of Economic Security (DES) under the statutory provisions of the law administers the Arizona Social Services Block Grant (SSBG) Plan (the Plan). The program period covered corresponds to the State Fiscal Year 2004 (SFY-2004), which begins on July 1, 2003 and ends June 30, 2004. SFY-2004 overlaps portions of Federal Fiscal Year 2003 (FFY-2003) and FFY2004, which run from October 1 through September 30. The planned SFY-2004 SSBG funding levels for services were based on Arizona's FFY-2003 SSBG allocation and the "estimated" Arizona allocation of FFY2004 SSBG published on the DHHS/SSBG Web page. SSBG Planning Level The specific formula used to estimate the amount of federal SSBG funds, $31,866,443 that are available for funding the planned services during Arizona's SFY-2004 is calculated from one-fourth of Arizona's FFY-2003 allocation and three-fourths of the estimated FFY-2004 allocation. Since the actual allotment available to Arizona is determined pursuant to congressional and presidential approval, the services and planning levels identified are estimates. Also included in the total planned SFY-2004 SSBG fund of $54,485,243 are $22,618,800 of TANF Block Grant funds which are estimate to be transferred to the SSBG for funding services during SFY-2004. TANF Block Grant Funds Transferred to the SSBG The Governor's Office of Strategic Planning and Budget (OSPB) recommends for SFY-2004 that $22,618,800 of Arizona's Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) block grant be transferred to the SSBG for Children Services funding. SSBG Service Goals Arizona's SSBG-funded services will be directed toward one or more of the following federal goals: I. II. III. IV. V. Evaluation The appropriate administrations within DES contracting for services funded by the SSBG have the responsibility of monitoring and evaluating the social service programs funded by the SSBG.
05-29-03 1
Achieve or maintain economic self-support to prevent, reduce, or eliminate dependency. Achieve or maintain self-sufficiency, including reduction or prevention of dependency. Prevent or remedy neglect, abuse, or exploitation of children and adults unable to protect their own interests or preserving, rehabilitating, or reunifying families. Prevent or reduce inappropriate institutional care by providing for community-based care, home-based care, or other forms of less intensive care. Secure referral or admission for institutional care when other forms of care are not appropriate or providing services to individuals in institutions.
Reporting on Activities Funded The DES will prepare a report on activities carried out with funds allocated in the Plan. The report may be used to determine the extent to which funds were spent in a manner consistent with the Plan. The Annual Report of Services Funded by the Social Services Block Grant for Fiscal Year 2003 will be available to the public after January 1, 2004. To obtain copies of this report, direct your request to the contact person at the telephone number or mailing address listed on page 3 of this Plan. SSBG Planning Process DES is responsible for planning and developing the Plan. This includes providing technical assistance to local planning bodies and Indian tribes for locally planned SSBG services. Planning for the use of the balance of available SSBG funds is accomplished as a part of the Department's annual budget development process. State-Planned Services The Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD), the Administration for Children, Youth and Families (ACYF), the Aging and Adult Administration (AAA), the Community Services Administration (CSA), the Rehabilitation Services Administration (RSA), and the Child Care Administration (CCA) within DES perform statewide planning activities by coordinating with similar and related programs of other state and local agencies, producing planning documents, fulfilling all federal statutory responsibilities accompanying the administration of programs, and, to varying degrees, involving local planning agencies in the development of a coordinated planning effort and review in local priorities for incorporation into statewide planning products. Locally Planned Services A significant amount of SSBG services are provided primarily through local service-delivery systems contracted by DES to augment state services and to respond to local needs. Arizona's six Councils of Governments (COGs) contract with DES to facilitate the primary planning for this portion of the SSBG service-delivery system. This primary planning is accomplished by identifying regional priorities, by coordinating planning with other planning entities, and by providing locally based citizen involvement opportunities. COG and Arizona Indian Tribes Allocations The following levels of funding made available for recommendations for locally planned SSBG services were determined according to a formula based on 50 percent population and 50 percent poverty in each local planning district. Approximately 24 percent of the total SSBG funds are available for locally planned services.

Specific services, eligibility criteria and dollar amounts are determined during the contracting process and are not designated in this plan. Geographic Areas The geographic areas for which services are planned are identified on the map on page 4. These serviceplanning districts correspond to DES service districts, excluding Arizona Indian reservations. Public Comment and Review The proposed Arizona State Fiscal Year 2004 SSBG Plan was made available to local community and Tribal social services planning agencies for review and public hearings in each of the six planning districts throughout the state. The Department announced and held public hearings at the six DES District Offices in May 2003.

Plan Amendment The Plan may be revised throughout the year as necessary to reflect substantial changes in the activities provided that affect the overall intent of the Plan. Any substantive revisions will be made available for public review and comment from interested persons and federal and public agencies. Service needs and program decisions may make it necessary to add services or make changes in eligibility, geographic and service availability, or the target group to which the service may be directed. These changes may be made in the Department's contracting process or direct service-delivery process without modifying the Plan.

*SSBG funds cannot be used for direct monetary payments to SSBG clients. Service Availability The Geographic Coverage, Target Group Eligibility, and Status Eligibility sections are identified beginning on pages 27 and 28 and provide the primary basis for determining eligibility for service. In addition to these areas, service availability will be determined on the basis of programmatic need for service. More specific service availability criteria may be specified in the purchase-of-service contracts with provider agencies or in the specific rule of the Social Services Operating Manual. An individual who is determined to be eligible under the above criteria shall not be denied access to services because of any other condition, although providers may use waiting lists and/or set priorities for services based on level of need for the service. A. Service This column lists the services available in the geographic area. Eligibility for service may vary from one geographic area to another, and services may only be available in certain areas of the state. Some services may be identified as being available on a statewide basis.
B. Target Group Eligibility This column identifies the types of individuals eligible for service. The most common target groups identified are adults, children, elderly, persons with disabilities, developmentally disabled and adults/families/children. The definitions of these target groups are identified on page 28. Combinations of target groups may be identified (e.g., elderly persons with disabilities would be designated as "ELD/PWD"). Also, there may be characteristics added to the target groups (e.g., ELD/PWD/Blind) that further clarify availability of service. C. Status Eligibility This column identifies the financial category for which individuals must qualify in order to be eligible for service.

Income Eligibility Child Care ? The Child Care Administration, for example, provides child-care assistance to support working families with incomes at or below 165 percent of the federal poverty level. Working families whose incomes are at or below 100 percent of the federal poverty level and working families that are transitioning off of cash assistance with incomes at or below 165 percent of the federal poverty level receive priority status for services. Families referred by Child Protective Services (CPS), children receiving CPS foster care and families who are receiving cash assistance and are participating in the JOBS program and/or who are employed receive services without regard to income. 2. Group - All individuals within a specific target group are financially eligible. 3. Unemployed - Service availability is determined on an individual's employment status. Financial income status levels may also be applied. The specific eligibility criteria shall be identified in the contract document with purchase-of-service providers. 4. Homeless - Individuals who have been evicted from a residence, or who are residing in an emergency shelter, or who are without a regular nighttime residence and who are without family or friends that are able or willing to share their residence.

Upwards of 50% of people also stream video content online. Among those with cable TV, almost three-fourths bundle their service with high-speed Internet.

All those stats mean that if you don't own at least one TV for every room in your house, chances are your neighbor to the left or right of you does. It also means that almost everyone you meet today will watch a TV tonight, and 57% of them will use either their DVR or their Internet to do so.

Ringspun Microcotton Monogrammed Hand Towel
Microcotton hand towel with monogramming is much more absorbent than regular cotton towels.
All-natural microcotton towels absorb water almost instantly. In fact, they absorb water much faster than regular cotton towels. They dry quickly, too--in less than half the time of Egyptian cotton towels. Once you experience these towels for yourself, you'll see how ringspun microcotton is noticeably softer, more durable and higher quality. And it becomes softer and more absorbent with repeated washings.
Four sizes to choose from--including a generously sized hand towel with monogramming.
Ringspun microcotton hand towel measures 16' x 30' and is available in eight colors. Customize your monogramming letter style and thread color upon towel selection.
Order the entire set of sumptuous, ultra-absorbent monogrammed Ringspun Microcotton Towels from Brookstone today!
NOTE: This is a personal care item, and is not returnable.

Indeterminacy in music refers to aspects of performance or audition that are left unprescribed by the music's creator, where an aural outcome cannot necessarily be predicted. An example in electroacoustic music might be the indeterminate playback of one or more autonomous tapes, tracks, soundfiles or audio streams (thus the component materials are 'fixed', but their ordering in time, counterpoint, or even spatial disposition may vary from listening to listening). Systems and musical strategies that involve humans interacting with computers, including the Internet, may often leave choices to the user/listener in terms of selection and ordering of musical materials, much as the reader of hypertext fiction will normally be free to navigate his/her own 'route' through the text. Indeterminacy is an antonym of Formalism.

The Sony Xperia series is unequivocally one of the most stylish and sought after that's available.
The Sony Xperia E3 offers the perfect mid-range, budget-friendly Sony experience, whereas Sony's flagship Xperia Z3 will satisfy those looking for the best of the best.
If phablets are your thing, you needn't look any further than the waterproof Sony Xperia Z Ultra, with its gargantuan 6.4-inch screen.
Sony's stunning new flagship device, the Sony Xperia Z2, is now available to buy from us. After taking it for a test ride, it's immediately discernible that the HTC One M8, Samsung Galaxy S5 and iPhone 5s have a very serious challenger to contend with.
Sony makes one of the best phones in the world, right now (the Sony Xperia Z2), and one of the key features of that new superphone is its camera, which can now record video in the new 4K resolution.
If we were to make a list of the phones we're most excited about in 2014, the Sony Xperia Z2 would be right up there at the top of the list. A lot of people want to get their hands on one, and soon, you'll be able to, because the Sony Xperia Z2 is available to pre-order now!
This year's Mobile World Congress saw the launch of two new smartphones which have been highly anticipated by, well, the entire world. Both Sony and Samsung brought their A-game, to produce devices that are worthy of the label 'superphone'. But which is better?
The Sony Xperia Z1 was easily one of the best smartphones of 2013, and now...
Japanese tech giant Sony has a global reputation for high-end devices, and their mobile phone handsets are no exception. Crammed full of impressive features that help them compete in the smartphone market, the slick appearances and superfast functionality found across the board in the Sony Xperia range and all their other offerings combine with great value for money to make Sony handsets understandably popular.
Previously known as Sony Ericsson, Sony has begun to focus exclusively on the smartphone market in recent years after establishing itself as a leading figure for multimedia enabled phones. You'll find a great range of phone deals from leading mobile networks such as Three with their Sony Xperia U model which combines a 3.5 inch LED backlit capacitive touchscreen with a hefty 1GHz processor for ultimate clarity and power. Elsewhere the Sony Xperia T partners Android's Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) OS with a 1.5GHz dual-core processor and 13MP camera capable of 1080p HD video recording for a powerful handset that matches good looks with great specifications.
If you're looking to upgrade your existing phone then other options such as the Sony Xperia Z are available on a range of tariffs and deals from leading networks such as EE. With access to thousands of apps via the Android App Store, you're sure to find everything you need with Sony regardless of whether you choose to own the Sony Xperia S or any other smartphone handset from this leading brand.
