"T'OTHER DEAR GHARMEB, » I ti ns in n quandary, ns I think you will mlniit when I liavo stated iny cane, and it was exceedingly provoking to bo conscious that I was looked upon hy nil my acquaintances ns tho luckiest man in town, whilo I bore in my bosom tho - inward conviction that I wns tlio wost involved and bothered being in existence. Up to n month back, I suppose I might, with somo show of reasonable- v ness, hnvo beeu called lueky, lor Miss Clara Ahlen, tlie recognized bollo of tlie season, smiled upon me, nud the current impression prevailed Hint, if 1 would go in, I'd win. Well, I did go iu. Hint's tho mischief of it, I went in just fnr enough to commit myself tti tlw contest, but, beforo I lind sighted tho winning post, something happened to givo mo pause. Wo were at the skatiug-rinkono night, rt large party of u«, Miss Alden being of the number. Her special escort was a yonng foreigner, who was being n good ileal lionized in society just than, and Olaro seemed to take a marked interest in him. It did not concern me in the least to observe this, for sinco I had fancied myself to be hi lovo with Clara Allien I had liad reason to congratulate myself upon the assurance that I was i.ot of a jealous temi>eranient, I intended pretty soon to tender to Miss Alden n good-siz«d heart nnd a good- sized hand and a fairly good-sized f.irt- une, and I sincerely hoped she would accept them. Until then, ami indeed after then, always within tho limits of good taste, she was frees to receivo iho «,, * . uttehffoils pj[. nm* Win Of,w«qwj=>w1j»swi -ifjjj^j. ■«»«^553Sly:.-,^v0 rioifpliSPmxO. ^"1 tTiitffi"SGijs* Alden and I understood eaeh other |>or- fectly. We w< re very old friends, nud- the suitability of nn tiliiunec between us had beeu frequently suggested to each ever sinco we could remember, I was ipiite contented wilh this eomiiliim of all'airs, and even supposed myself to be very happy. Well, this night at the rink I hnd seen C'lavaskafe oil' with her Euglislimau, and with an itiipetlmbed spirit I was skimming around the rink alone when, jast behind me, I heard a little scream nini a little scramble and somi-botly fell. The next" instant, as I turned, I met a pair of imploring and beautiful eyes, and an imploring aud beautiful voice cried mil: "Oh, won't you please pick me up?" I eagerly clasped the little hands and drew Ute prostrate young lady to her feet. I was just iii time, for half a dozen other men had hurried to' the spot, among whom she recognized an iii'tpiaiiitanee. Sho made her bow to me and said her " thank you " very prettily, nml then she aecei'iti'd (ho* proffered hand of her friend and glided awav from me. And do you know I did not like it ? I felt distinctly vexed, for you soe she was bewitehingly lovely and* the glimpse I hnd of lier was merely tantalizing. I met her afler that many times, always with tho same mnn whom I was rather provoked to recognize as a stranger, I now fomid myself always watching ior that ono little figure and following it through all tho labarvnthino mazes of tho surging crowd upon the rink. I forgot to speak to my acquaintances as they passed, and. al- "»• though there wero half a scoro of young ladies who had a right to expcct'me to join Ihem and convoy tliem aiouiul the rink, I skated on alone, in utter disregard of everysoeial and moral obligation to that enect. Every now and then I chanced tfpon Miss Alden, but I felt too preoccupied to join, or t.ven to observe her especially, when suddenly something occurred that invested her with a lively interest She had been stopping to speak to somo friends who sat without tbo railing looking on, antl as sho and .,. .*— her_ escort were about starting out * ngnin sho suddenly enmo 'faco to face ' ..-TT . with my littlo beantr.^Thc$8s«»Wfei& M=^*' gleam-ofw^-gmHoB~i^oaiKcos/mid then Miss AJden exclaimed : "Why, Daisy, where havo yon dropped from? Wlio wonld hnve thought of seeing you, of all people, here 1" '.Ehere was rather a warm greeting between tho two before Daisy explained : " I havo como for tho winter and haye . been wanting to look you up, but I only arrived yesterday. I nm so glad to have met you here," After that I henrd no moro, for thc two friends joined hands and skated 00 together. I hung nbout them a little way off, pretending to bo talking to some mon who wero lounging about, nud when I Uiought my presence would not prove an unpleasant interruption I skated toward Clara nnd greeted her cordially, asking her whero sho had boon thia long time. Sho saw through me in a moment and showed me that she did by disregarding roy qnestion entirely and presenting me at onco to her friend. Miss Lvle. I hnd soon n gootl. many mascuhno e3res regarding Miss Lyle with interest during the evening, and I now perceived the owner of ono pair of theso appronching ^Css Alden with what I divined to ho tlie same intention that liad brought me hither a moment before; so while he was stopping to shake hnnds with Cflnra I offorod my hands to Mias Lyleond wo glided oft togethor. A few adroit questions on my part elicited the fact that Miss Lylo nud Mi«s Alden had been sehooImafeB, who ' ' ""• had not met for some years, and I fur thermore discovered that Miss Lyhs was slopping in town with relatives who happened to be old acquaintances of mine. Bo, after we parted that night, Miss Jjyle and I mot often, and wo wero together bo much at tha rin]{ ifyai people had begun to remark it, Statistics show that tliero has been n blind as not to soe tliat she was second to no woman in existence. This was on Christmas dny. I had been to Porter's room to have a talk with him, knowing ho would be at leisure, and tho result j gradual and steadyjnerojisohi"the aver- wns that ho entirely convinced mo of J ngo length of life since tlio sixteenth whnt I ought to do. Still it was very ( eentury. Much of this increased lou- hard to make up my mind to it. ! gevity has boen duo to tho improved al. It gavo mo a sneaky feeling of late • f«nffk etc., tef&m at tic> presentr] wheueverlgotmieof these kindinvita- f tune hy the fact, that the wealthy aver- tions,hutlW seen no way out of tJlc , ago twelvo more years of life than the 'matter but Ui accept, and bo I had ac- i P°°r' copted. When I left Porter's room I Thb greatest amount of cold ever turned mv faee in tho direction of the J known to he endured by whito men Aldens with a veiyhejtvy heart. Before ' overtook Lieut, Schwntka's party hi dinner I had no opportunity to see Olnra alone, if 1 had desired it; Imt I had ample opportunity for watching her, and I had to acknowledge that I had never seen her look better, Hhe played, too, And this brings mo to the poriod of the quandary with whioh I started out. Hero wns I, stipposod by everybody to bo tlie favored adorer of ono lovely girl, whilo in reality I wns hoad over heels iu love willi another. I'or I had no doubt about my fooling in tliis matter; it wns unmistnknblo, I smiled grimly now when I remembered tho days hi whioh I had bonstod of not possessing a jealous temperament. Why, I was jealous of every ono who went near Daisy, J wns infuriated if she danced and stated with any one but. mo, and whon I saw some awkward, clumsy man nm against her once at the rink I felt like choking him whon she smiled nt his apology. To toll tho truth I was positively wretched, If Daisy had never eome I could have -sjnyMft ■- msi*o;nad^nirpia\¥wSfc an oxp^esaodpuhdershmdingonthb score of our relationship among all onr frionds, and 1 woidd havo boon a very cheerful anel attentive spouse to Olara k I hnd nover seon Daisy; nnd, on tho other hand, if I had nover scon Clara, I might now perhaps succeed in winning Daisy's hand, and with it everlasting happiness. JLt was just a case of IIow happy oould I ho with either, Wero t'other dear ehurmer away. I sometimes wondered whether Clara did not partly seo through me. Sho had such an odd way of looking nt me somo times with such n shrewd smile; but she treated me bettor thnn ever. Sho was really a splendid creature, and, tinder imaginable circumstances, I might havo learned to lovo her very much, m a certain way. So things drifted on until Christmas camo. On Christmas night thero wns to bo a grand, fancy-dress ball at tho rink. Daisy wns going and so was Clara, und it goes without saying that I was on hand, lily perplexities wero at their height, Iwas more in lovo with Daisy than over, but fully alive to tho matter of my duty in .another quarter. It was beginning to wear on mo terribly nnd I concluded to hjjf, call in tho advico of my friend Porter, a prudent aud sagacious follow, in whose judgment I had unlimited confidence. How fondly I hoped he might decide j thnt I wns under no obligation to Miss } Alden. And how differently ho did decide ! He wns perfectly astounded nt t my confession. Miss Alden, he said, I was one woman picked out of 30,000, much handsomer, much richer, much moro distinguished than Miss Dyle; I must bo out of my senses. In short, he Sho had a wreath of holly loaves find homes on her hair, and bunohos of the samo about her dross. Sho was skating with a yonng mnn dressed as SantS Claus, who, howover, gavo way when I glided up, nnd wo skimmed away together, iwas too happy to spoak, tho glorious possibility of what might ho awaiting mo burst upon mo with such vividness. But presently I became conscious thnt she was speaking to mo, .Sho was praising my costume, which opened np to mo nu opportunity which you may be suro 1 mado tho most of, Slio blushed with pleasure at my praise, and bo, both of its in aeonseions flutter, wo came tipoa Clara Aiden, joyonsly drossod and escorted by her Englishman, They1 stepped in front of -aen Mias AMeft rooms curtained off at that Ond ?

Suppose you two lead." She skated off then with hor companion, and Daisy and I went to obey her behest But into that littlo curtained apartment you are forbidden to outer.

Watering Horses. There is a great diversity of opinion, ns to how often horses should bo watered during a day, whether in summer or in winter. We have an article now beforo us of a writer of some distinction aa an agriculturist, who advocates freqnent watering of work horses, as a renewer of tho vigor of tho animals. We cannot agree with him. Wo think both man and beast aro generally watered too much. Men and horses at hard work in warm weather perspire just in proportion to the quantity,of fluids taken mto the stomaelL Frequent drinking in hot weather, according to onr experience, emasculates instead of refreshes. Some me this question a good deal sooner," she stud, " and I am not conscious of feeling particularly flattered at fho offer of a hand so distinctly and widely separated from the heart.

The retardation and often complete ruin of crops by insect depredation is well known, but it is uot at nil appreciated to its full extent. Salt can act but in throo wnys beneficially. It. attracts moisture anil henco is useful in dry seasons; it drives away insects, and therefore, is ireful ia all seasons, and when thoroughly dissolved by heavy rains it acts by assisting inert or insoluble material to become fit for plant food. Tho first mode is a slight gain not enough, though, to pay for the salt; tho second is very valuable, paying for the salt and the troublo of application from ten to one hundred timos over, according to the prevalence and destruot- ivoness of the inseots; the third mode is of but little valuo because insolnbles aro generally proof agninst its feeble action.

Bartow County Fire Department Battalion Chief Sandy Turner said witnesses told authorities about 10:30 a.m. the man was traveling out of a no-wake zone and began to throttle up.
When the 16-foot bass boat struck a wave, the man was thrown out and the boat struck him multiple times. Turner said the man was pronounced dead at the scene.
The Dallas man was alone on board the boat.
Head-on collision sends several people to hospital
A head-on collision Sunday morning also sent a handful of people to area hospitals.
Turner said the small passenger car and small pickup collided about 10:15 a.m. on Mac Johnson Road. One person was taken to Scottish Rite, one to Floyd Medical Center and several were transported to Cartersville Medical Center.

I love that napkin ring (West Elm has some that are very similar). They look like they could be a DIY though....anyone know where I could find a tutorial?
They are very easy to make, E53 - I made about a hundred of them the day before my wedding using Martha Stewart's method: http://www.marthastewart.com/266406/knotted-napkin-rings

The Canes held the Cass Colonels to just five points in the first quarter and five points in the second quarter en route to a 67-35 win Saturday night at the Storm Center.
"Our goal is to a hold team to 40 points or under every time we take the court," Cartersville coach Mike Tobin said. "Tonight, our defense played great in the first half."
It was 16-5 Cartersville after the first quarter and 29-10 at halftime.
"We struggled to make our shots like we always do," Cass coach Greg Scott said. "That's what we did tonight against Cartersville."
Scott's stats indicated that the Colonels were held to four-of-17 shooting in the first half.
"Once you get into a hole against Cartersville, it's very hard to climb out of it," Scott said.
Scott had hoped Cass would have momentum on its side following its 55-47 victory over Cedartown Friday.
"It was a good win for us last night," he said. "We led from start to finish that game. This game, we didn't play well at all."
Cartersville, 17-0, on the other hand, managed to play well against Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe Friday night and Cass on Saturday.
"So far, so good," Tobin said.
Leading 44-17 after the third quarter Saturday, Tobin was able to empty his bench in the fourth quarter.

The Omni Royal Orleans is an upscale business hotel housed in a historic building in the French Quarter. It offers 345 elegant (if small) rooms featuring solid amenities, including flat-screen TVs with LodgeNet system, iPod docks, and stocked minibars. Property highlights include a renowned restaurant, a heated saltwater rooftop pool, and a well-equipped fitness center. But there's a fee for in-room Wi-Fi (free for Omni's loyalty program guests) as well as for valet parking.
The Royal Sonesta is Bourbon Street's swankiest hotel, and guests can customize it to their level of party pleasure. Low-key travelers should ask for a hushed interior room deep in the property, while those who want a certain New Orleans experience can take a balcony room and watch an eclectic parade of people go by at all hours. Live jazz and a hopping pool scene add appeal for weary business people who can't wait to break out of their meetings.
The Saint is a sleek hotel located on the border of the French Quarter and the Central Business District. Its 166 stylish rooms have attractive blue-and-white decor and great amenities, including flat-screen TVs, minibars, iPod docks, and free Wi-Fi. There are great nightlife options on-site: a rooftop bar -- offering expansive city views -- and the sexy Burgundy Bar with live music. But foodies might want to explore the myriad dining options outside the hotel instead of eating at Tempt.
The 600-room French Quarter hotel has made literary history and cocktail history, but it's no museum piece. Monteleone renovated guest rooms in 2010, completing its new look in 2012 with updates to its common areas and restaurant. On the upper floors, the hotel offers some of the city's most exhilarating views. If you'd rather get your kicks on the ground, ride the legendary Carousel Bar.
With a gorgeous Tuscan-style courtyard complete with a heated saltwater pool; seven exclusive one- and two-bedroom cottages; top-notch services; and a central location in the French Quarter, the Audubon Cottages is a great pick for travelers looking to splurge. Just note that there are no amenities aside from the pool and that parking is available only at the hotel's sister property a block away.
A grand Southern hotel with a haunting past, the Bourbon Orleans is home to a delicious Creole restaurant; a signature cocktail in its popular bar; and 218 attractive, elegant rooms, some with balconies over Bourbon Street. Situated in an excellent French Quarter location between polar-opposite scenes -- the party-centric Bourbon Street and upscale, art-gallery-clad Royal Street -- Bourbon Orleans offers the best of both worlds for visitors. It also offers an intriguing history (ask about the resident ghost) and a stunning outdoor saltwater pool.
The Hotel Mazarin is an upscale boutique located in the heart of the French Quarter. It features 102 rooms with elegant decor, striking bathrooms, and solid amenities -- including large flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, and free Wi-Fi. The property offers wonderful freebies, and a popular wine bar with outdoor seating -- but the highlight here is the gorgeous arched courtyard, a welcome retreat from the crowds of Bourbon Street. Plus, rates are competitive, and location is convenient for those looking to explore the main tourist attractions on foot.
Hotel Le Marais is a mid-range boutique located in the heart of the French Quarter. It offers 66 rooms with great amenities -- including flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, and free Wi-Fi -- and contemporary (if generic) decor. There's a small gym with a decent selection of cardio machines; a colorful bar with a daily happy hour; and great freebies, including free bottled water and free continental breakfast. The highlight here is arguably the lovely courtyard complete with a small heated saltwater pool and tons of loungers.
Straddling two busy French Quarter streets, the historic Bienville House is as an urban oasis, with tropical rooftop terraces and a soothing courtyard. This boutique hotel has fewer than 100 rooms, a parlor-like lobby and friendly touches, such as free lemonade and cookies in the afternoon. High ceilings make the rooms feel spacious, but the decor is unremarkable, and Standard Rooms lack windows.
Authentic and funky, this historic boutique -- located in a residential area on the French Quarter's far edge -- allows guests to experience the neighborhood as the locals do. It's also an easy walk to Frenchman Street, an exciting area in the Marigny experiencing a renaissance in live music and tapas-oriented restaurants. But while the old-world decor is charming enough in the lobby, it's less impressive in the slightly worn rooms, and bathrooms are in dire need of renovation.

Thomas Paine (Thetford, England, 29 January 1737 - 8 June 1809, New York City, USA) was a pamphleteer, revolutionary, radical intellectual, and deist. Born in Great Britain, he lived in America, having migrated to the American colonies just in time to take part in the American Revolution, mainly as the author of the powerful, widely-read pamphlet, Common Sense (1776), advocating independence for the American Colonies from the Kingdom of Great Britain.

Peéle Lemos
Here's a brilliant, succinct piece of branding by Sao Paulo designer Peéle Lemos for Doctors On The Road. Very, very nice.
Here's a brilliant, succinct piece of branding by Sao Paulo designer Peéle Lemos for Doctors On The Road. Very, very nice.
"It's been funny seeing 'Robert Redford to sign off' on our work plans in recent months," Mark Aver, Mother Design New York design director tells us, revealing the new identity for the 2015 edition of the Sundance Film Festival. The independent film festival, which started in 1978 in Utah, is chaired by Redford, who from the sounds of it, takes quite a hands-on approach.
French design duo My Name is Wendy caught our eye earlier this year with the innovative D/I/M/E/N/S/I/O/N typographic poster series. The studio recently launched a new site showcasing some great new projects that suggest the pair's Bauhaus-esque graphic approach is going from strength to strength. Two projects particularly intrigued us – the first being a poster series which acts as a part of a wider project in which the studio creates the fictional land of Meteor.
Taiwan-born graphic designer Wang Zhi-Hong claims the place that most stimulates his imagination most is one with "no one but me". In a somewhat reluctant-sounding chat with French magazine Post IM, he paints a careful picture of himself as a man of solitude and precision. Whether or not this makes for a happy life, it certainly makes for some superb graphic design work. From his impressive portfolio we were most drawn to his book design, which takes this idea of a simple, uncluttered existence and turns it into beautiful pared back, precise creations. We were particularly seduced by the monochrome Yohji Yamamoto book designs, with the glorious curved forms of Japanese kanji characters given space to breathe against this restrained aesthetic.
Pitching for a design museum identity that will act as the platform for some of the most celebrated designers the world over can't be an easy task. How to merge tradition and modernity? To create something beautiful, that doesn't detract from the work itself? So when Mallorcan agency Atlas put forward their proposals for the new Barcelona Design Museum's identity, it's perhaps little surprise they worried their ideas were "too modern and risky."
Pentagram partner Michael Bierut and designer Aron Fay have designed a new identity for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Media Lab, creating this striking, labyrinth-like look that brilliantly communicates the faculty's "anti-disciplinary" approach.
When it comes to psychedelic album artwork, it sometimes feels like the very best might already be behind us – Wes Wilson, Mouse & Kelly and Rick Griffin already having worked through the golden era. There's something reassuring about the knowledge that graphic designers are still looking for ways to incorporate psychedelic elements into their designs though, and French graphic artist Lucas Donaud is foremost amongst them.
Hotel branding can so often be a dowdy affair, as if the design nods to the temporary nature of the building's inhabitants – something to move on from, rather than to dwell on. So it's wonderful to see a brave, opulent new identity for the Connaught in London's Mayfair, designed by The Partners around a stunning new artwork by Kristjana S Williams which now hangs in the hotel.
I was surprised to learn that Amsterdam's HOAX studio don't seem to have been on the site before, and faced with their wide-ranging portfolio it was a challenge to focus in on a narrative that made sense. Founders Bram Buijs, Sven Gerhardt and Steven van der Kaaij joined forces based on their "shared love for typography, material and experimentation" and this passion for fresh creative thinking runs throughout their work.
Creating a cohesive identity for a design conference might not seem like such a tall order, but the reality of producing flyers, bags, programmes and that all-important logo mark for an international event isn't as simple as you might think. For starters there's an abundance of conferences out there, each with it's own unique look and feel, so creating visuals that present a point of difference will always pose a challenge; secondly how on earth do you make a talks timetable look exciting?
Boasting PVC-clad bottoms, surreal jazz photography and beautifully-rendered risograph prints of basketball hoops, Shabazz Projects' homepage certainly offers a well-curated and striking experience. The LA-based publishing platform was founded by Hassan Rahim and Brian Okarski, releasing art, photography and design-focused books and objects, all with a run of 200 or fewer editions. Stand-out pieces include the Various Basketball Hoops risographs, which put a whimsical spin on these often weary-looking monoliths; and Eric Wrenn and Antje Peters' Jazz photographs, which place instruments against a dramatic plume of smoke. Hassan and Brian say their aim is to "provoke and surprise," and from the images on their site alone, they're certainly not letting themselves down.
Many a blue-sky-thinker and envelope-pusher has been extolling the virtues of meditation and mindfulness to pseudo-spiritually swell their business jargon lately. So it's refreshing when a beautifully branded, creatively-minded product emerges that promises to offer that lucrative "pause from modern life."
If all the magazines and small publications that used the internet as their subject matter were dumped on your head it'd be curtains for you – there's bloody loads of them. Some, like Offscreen, deal with the people that make digital culture happen and try to bring these unsung heroes out from behind their screens into the RGB limelight, others, like French publication Nichons – Nous Dans l'Internet (Tits – We In The Internet) are more conceptually-minded, analysing and assessing the social and cultural phenomena brought about by the ubiquity of technology.
Setting up a design studio and changing your name to a cool pseudonym is a good two-fingers-up to life on the quiet side. Parisian designer Julien Ducourthial decided to make this leap, and now overseas The Jazzist, offering bold, fluoro design work "serving in fields of graphic design, illustration and art direction in digital & printed media." When Julien emailed us he told us he was inspired by 8-bit imagery and cartoons, which gave us an immediate inkling that we were going to like his work. Anyone looking to commission a great French designer any time soon? Julien is your man.

"I'm going to talk about the vision, having a vision, about what the future holds for you as a person. Hopefully, I'm praying, that [people in attendance] will catch the vision of having a great year, a positive year and a positive life," said Davis, head football coach at Fayette County High School. "A lot of times, we go through our daily routine without even giving a second thought about where we're headed and what we hope to gain out of this life. So I'm hoping to encourage them to be able to look forward.
"Dr. King was all about togetherness. He was all about having a dream, about having a great future and making a change and that's what I would like to establish as well. I'm just going to feed off of what he has already said in terms of just looking forward to the future and looking forward to change."
To be held Sunday, Jan. 20, at 6 p.m., the candlelight service at Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church — 147 Jones St. in Cartersville — will kick off two days of programs organized by the Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Committee of Bartow County. Like last year's offerings, the upcoming observances will be free and open to the public, bearing the theme "Remember! Celebrate! Act! — a day on, not a day off."
After the service, which also will present college scholarships and the Drum Major Award to local residents, the King festivities will resume on Monday, Jan. 21, with a youth rally at 10 a.m. at St. Luke A.M.E. Church, 130 Jones St. in Cartersville. Youth are invited to pay tribute to King's life with songs, skits, poetry and dance.
The day's events also will include a Brotherhood March at 2 p.m. Participants will assemble at the Cartersville Civic Center — 435 W. Main St. — at 1:15 p.m. Grand Marshals Reuben and Mildred Peeks will lead the procession to the Frank Moore Administration and Judicial Center, 135 W. Cherokee Ave. After a wreath-laying ceremony, the crowd will return to the civic center for a Brotherhood Program that will feature a message from the Rev. Michael Daniel with Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church in Stilesboro.
A federal and state holiday, Martin Luther King Jr. Day marks the Civil Rights leader's birthday and is recognized on the third Monday in January. Even though it has been about 45 years since King was assassinated, Linda Kellogg — chairperson of the local Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Committee — said his message still is relevant today and needs to be shared among individuals of all ages.
"Personally, for me it's a great reminder," Kellogg said. "I live this every day but when the weekend and a day is set aside it also gives me a chance to think on it too. First of all, it's not just an African-American celebration. It's for all races and I emphasize all races. It's for all [economic] statuses. You can be rich, poor.
"It's about education. ... It's about war and peace. There's so many things [and] that's what I want them to [learn from these programs]. The things that people have lived and died for are still going on today."
Referring to King's effort to implement change through nonviolent measures, she said this approach needs to be applied to today's troubles as well. For Kellogg, many misunderstandings and arguments across the nation could be settled quicker if people made an effort to talk to one another.
"There's so much anger and I'm not just talking about kids. There are adults that are angry," Kellogg said. "... It just seems like people need to be more loving and realize that there's enough for all of us to do. The things that I want people to take away from the Martin Luther King Holiday Celebration is that we need to leave that celebration going back [to] our community, helping our community in whatever capacity that may be.
"There's so much for all of us to do without waiting for it to be done and that's what I like about Cartersville [and] Bartow County. I like for us to take care of our own but it can't just be a faithful few. And I'm really emphasizing that more and more now."
For more information about the King Holiday Weekend Celebration, call 770-865-1797.

Isn't it interesting how the choices we make direct and guide our lives? Led Zeppelin said: "Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run – there's still time to change the road you're on." I think there are many paths and roads, and sometimes the best one is the road not taken.
Finding an auto glass repair shop near you
Posted by in auto glass repair, windshield replacement Comments Off
When searching online for the best auto glass repair shop or consultants, it is important to grasp what techniques to be used in order to discover a business that concentrates on your needs : whether or not it's auto window replacement or car window repair. By using appropriate search terminology, comparison shopping and local results, it is easy to get an idea of which particular auto glass replacement outlet is best-suited to help you with your particular window fix or windscreen replacement problem. The following suggestions will lead you in the right direction and help you find an auto glass repair shop that's provided to provide assistance.
Determine The Damage
In several instances, it is easy to tell whether you'll need a total windscreen replacement or a simple windshield fix. If you have large cracks or the damaged area is bigger than 2-3 inches in any one direction, chances are that you're going to need to replace the entire window. If the damage is littler and more local, the windscreen may be eligible for a simple repair that's inexpensive and fast. Knowing this, you can customize your search to get a bit more applicable results ; for instance, searching for 'auto glass replacement' will help you find specialists and shops that provide replacement services solely, while a search for 'car window repair' may bring results for firms that pander to little repairs only.
Search for Local Results
If you happen to be looking for a local company that caters entirely to people in your neighborhood, then think about adding the general city of where you reside to get slightly more important results. For those living in Athens that need a window replaced, searching for 'windshield replacement Athens ga' gives more impressive results than it might with the location omitted. While a few people in rural areas may have to search for the nearest larger community, there are numerous different repair shops and companies around the country that can be found by searching locally.
Read Available Reviews
Before considering any company for car window replacement or auto glass repair it is a good idea to locate any available reviews from other purchasers of the shop in query to work out if they're satisfied with the quality of work performed. This is definitely your first line of defense against sub par auto glass replacement and windshield repair centers that prey on the ignorant.

Sweet Delicacy: Antique Diamond Ring
Perfect for the beginning of a lifetime of wearing jewelry or simply adding to an on-going collection, this petite 14k rose gold ring virtually floats upon the finger with a smooth, buttery patina developed over decades of caresses. A delightful stylized buttercup setting hosts five (5) old mine cut diamonds with a total diamond weight of about .23 carats (H-K color range; SI1-2 clarity).
Date: Circa 1890.
Measurements: 3/8 of an inch in length north to south on the hand and rises 1/4 of an inch (0.6 cm) in height off the finger. Weight of 3.1 grams (2.0 dwt).
Ring Size: US 8 (UK P-1/2; Int. Dia. 18.25; Euro 57.5; Japan 16) and can be easily sized to fit most. Ring sizing information.
Condition: Good; two surface scratches to center diamond and a bit of edge wear to several others - all only visible with magnification. Evidence of an old resizing visible with a loupe.
Note: Diamonds have not been removed from their mounts to preserve the integrity of the setting. All diamond weights have been approximated by measurement and formula and may vary from actual weights. Grading has been done in situ and also may vary if stones are removed.
