- Terrible lunch at The RaymondLynnDined on 11/21/2014I took someone here for a birthday lunch. We were crammed into a small table where I had to straddle one of the table legs. It was clearly an added table with no consideration to the customer. The waiter told us to 'hurry up and place our order because they had a large party coming in.' After quickly ordering, we waited 35 minutes to get our food. No apology for the excessive wait. The check was brought without even asking us if we wanted dessert. It was evident they just wanted us out of there as fast as possible. I was embarrassed that this was the restaurant I chose for my friend's birthday. Never again!
- OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 11/14/2014Food is excellent but the portions are small. Service was the worst. It took them 20 minutes to get me water that I didn't ask for, and 30 minutes to take my order from after we sat down. Our waitress was nowhere to be found. Love the drinks though. Hate to love this placeSpecial Features:
- Dining room was too dark.OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/14/2014Parking was there but there was also a rehearsal dinner so we parked om the street. The service was good and our server was friendly and efficient. We ordered the short ribs and the the lingcod and it was well prepared. Our only complaints were the room was too dark and was pricey.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Charming Standout in PasadenaOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 11/12/2014We came here for an anniversary dinner not entirely sure what to expect. You don't always know what you'll get with "American" fare, but everything at The Raymond, from the craft cocktails to small plates, entrees and even the bread, was exceptional. This has quickly become one of our favorite places on the East side and probably all of LA. The menu is creative, seasonal, local and healthy. It's also varied, without being overwhelming. The only difficulty in deciding what to order was that everything looked interesting and worth trying. Dishes are inventive and eclectic - some have Indian, Korean, Spanish or Mediterranean influences - but everything feels like it goes together. The setting in a romantically-lit old Craftsman house is special, an authentic piece of Pasadena history. The bar looks like a great place to just have a drink and a few small plates - we intend to go back for that as well as more meals. The wait staff was very attentive and even started us off with some complementary anniversary bubbly. We can't wait to go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- dining experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/11/2014while the short ribs were wonderful, the vegetable melange was not worth purchasing again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing FoodhomesweethomeDined on 11/8/2014The food was absolutely delicious, great atmosphere, really felt like we were at someone's home. Great find! Waitress was very personable and helpful with food choices.Special Features:
- Not goodarchVIPDined on 11/7/2014n the past it's been a great place, recently the consistence has is all over the place. I had the salmon that came as two little pieces and was over cook. When I point this to waitress, she asks if I want something else. I said no, I just want the salmon cook right. Her answer was that she needed to get the chief to talk to me, why just cook as med. rare. I finial got after every one at our table was done. At $35 dollars I should not have to hassle to get the food cook right. The other issues have been the amount they give you for the short ribs, $38. Two great restaurants, Lucquc's and Bistro 45 will give a good portion and theirs is wonderful . Raymond will give you a taste. I won't be going back, maybe in a year i will returnSpecial Features:
- Tastebuds are ready!OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 11/7/2014Everything on the menu is wonderful. Lovely setting on the front patio with a fountain to dispel noise from the street. Relaxing, excellent service. One of my favorites. They never hurry you out.Special Features:
- DinnerSquare3VIPDined on 11/6/2014Service was so slow we about went to sleep. Food mediocre--- fish undercooked and short ribs so seasoned with other spices that I couldn't taste the meat. Whole menu too gourmet.Special Features:
- Inspired RaymondLuv2DineWellDined on 10/28/2014I met a friend for a romantic lunch. Robert found us a wonderful table near a water fountain. The food, wine and service was outstanding. The setting is always outstanding.Special Features:
- Bad serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 10/26/2014We had to sit outside where the experience is much more local bistro than fine dining. Our service was all over the place and waitress had no knowledge of food she was serving. She forgot someone's drink and then the food arrived and 3 of the plates were stone cold. Sent food back and rather than remake meal as you expect it was just heated up so plate was boiling hot- not good! Very disappointedSpecial Features:
- athenaVIPDined on 10/26/2014Sever was great !. Sat outside on the patio .They have a water fountain which blocks some on the noise but the patio was dreary .Food for our liking was overdone , not temperature wise but to many spices overpowering the food itself. To be honest it was disappointing !
- Great Neighborhood LocationjamatoDined on 10/26/2014The Raymond is a really good spot. Unfortunately it is a little hidden away, but that is good for those who know about it. It can be a walk for some and a short drive for others in the hood between South Pasadena and Pasadena. The selections are well thought out, portions make sense, and the quality of the food is very good. All in all, a great place to go.Special Features:
- Trying to hardOzefishDined on 10/25/2014It was my first time at the Raymond. My guest had dined there before and spoke highly of it. Sadly that was not my experience. The server recommended the tapas like shrimp appetizer. Beautiful shrimp but the spice (?) and potato left with it left me very confused; bland on bland. I had the lamb for the entrée. I concede that I am Australian and love flavorful lamb. To the best of my knowledge this had no flavor, or if it did the flavor was totally masked by the charcoal crust. Note to Chef: lamb has fat so will flare up if exposed to an open fire and medium looks pink, not brown at the center (just saying). The accompaniments were purportedly Indian, but largely disappointing, except for the eggplant. Final tip; avoid the coffee!Special Features:
- Nice but not perfect.FlutefinDined on 10/25/2014An charming old place struggle to stay relevant... It is in an old craftsman house, very charming. Chef did a great job on the short rib and also decent on scallop, but fall short on small plates. I ordered three, they are all decent, but did not blow my mind as I expect from such an nice establishment. For the price, I could get much better fair somewhere else.Special Features:
- fantomfanDined on 10/19/2014Reasonable prices for brunch,new and very pleasant host and hostess and servers.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LOVELY ATMOSPHERE & FINE FOODTallLadyDiDined on 10/10/2014The ambiance is nice, small rooms with few tables in each. The food is very good but it takes a long time to get it and the service is indifferent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Anniversary DinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 10/4/2014Thoughtful staff, and a great dinner! That about sums it up! I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to recommend this restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Too darkPasadenaKittyKatDined on 10/1/2014The candlelit tables were nice, but it was so dark you could barely see your food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pasadena iconAnonDined on 9/28/2014One of the best restaurants in Pasadena for many years, the quality has been maintained consistently.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FabulousPoseypusherVIPDined on 9/27/2014We've been wanting to try this place for years. Now I know what all the hub-bub is about. Fabulous food prepared beautifully - visually & gastronomically. Portions are small, but that's all we wanted - no leftovers to take home and we didn't feel stuffed. Waitress was very knowledgeable and helpful with dietary needs. It was very busy, but we never felt rushed.Special Features:
- Onion rings!OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 9/21/2014A dank, converted former private home delivers wonderful food. When I first arrived I thought the air was stuffy and the restaurant overly dark, with dark wooden tables and chairs. Then I got the onion rings as a starter! They were probably the best onion rings I have enter had. Hot, crunchy and served with a heavenly malt vinegar infused aioli. The rest of the dishes (beef cheeks with house made pasta, stone fruit salad with burrata) were not quite as sublime but were all delicious and well prepared. Cheerful, pleasant service was also a plus.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The best.LoveinthefieldDined on 9/20/2014Amazing. Great food, beautiful atmosphere, professional servers. All around great. One of our favorite restaurants anywhere.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food & cocktailsHungryBritVIPDined on 9/20/2014Amazing food and cocktails and the bar menu is also great. A little noisy if sitting outside (traffic noise) but sitting inside is cosy. Service is ok but you don't seem to get a dedicated server, just whoever is closest at the time, they are very attentive though so it's not necessarily a bad thing. Reasonably priced and huge portions... the rack of lamb dish could easily feed two... seriously. Take half home and it's even better in a sandwich the next daySpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Every yearMaxnddDined on 9/19/2014Dinner at The Raymond is our anniversary tradition (we were married there in 2008). This time the menu was far more diverse than we remembered so we ordered far more than we could eat! Amazing appetizers: cucumber stuffed with kim chee??? Can't wait to dig into the leftovers for dinner tonight!Special Features:
- Not happy....MaureenVIPDined on 9/18/2014We sat in the 1st dining room....it was VERY dark and gloomy. The rugs and floor were dirty! We arrived at 11:45, so we were among the first seated. It's as though the place wasn't cleaned! My friend called the atmosphere "grim"..... There are no salt & pepper sets on the tables, and also no sugar/sweetener. You have to request both, and no bread was served.... The menu was uninteresting....salads or sandwiches, very little else.
- Dining DelightECWesqDined on 9/13/2014Friends took us to a belated dinner to celebrate out 50th anniversary. The food was excellent. We each had a different dish with several starters and not one disappointed. All of us enjoy good food and wine. If you wish to served well and treated to a good dinner in a comfortable atmosphere where good conversation is possible, this is a great choice.Special Features:
- Back to the RaymondRaymondRocksVIPDined on 9/12/2014Had not been back to the Raymond for several years. Menu was eclectic and food tastes were excellent. Outdoor patio closest to street still had acceptable noise level for normal conversation even with background music...which, by the way, was eclectic in itself.Special Features:
- Hidden treasureAspiringcookrDined on 9/10/2014Anything worth doing is always worth doing well. Once we found our way to this wonderful hidden treasure, it was pleasingly evident this is how The Raymond operates. From the wonderful intimate surroundings to the warm, friendly staff. The comfortable, home like atmosphere. To the absolutely luscious fare, our dining experience was incredible. This is definitely a place I will come back to so I can work my way completely through the menu. I can't wait until the adventure continues. Looking forward to introducing more friends to this great dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A creative menu at the RaymondLadydi7VIPDined on 9/5/2014Dinner was most interesting. My companion and I ordered appetizers, 4 of them. All were good and interesting.Problem was most of it was finger food, and we needed those little warm moist washcloths to clean our hands. Would recommend that they offer those. Our waitress was very kind however and got us some napkins which had been moistened in warm water....worked fine. Most delicious was some form of Yellowtail still on the bone in a delicious sauce served with a cucumber salad. We also enjoyed the chicken wings, though difficult to eat as they were large and served intact. Would recommend this restaurantSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ValerieValerieDined on 9/4/2014This resturant is charming with very nice outside dining. Their cocktails are excellent. The food is the best in the area. I had the hanger steak. Wonderful combination of flavors. Highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Weird food combosOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 9/3/2014Well prepared food but very expensive and what I call "creative cooking." They use bizarre ingredient combinations. Not a place for someone who likes a normal meal.
- Over ratedKlmkDined on 8/31/2014Disappointing...... Rotten area, much too loud....service sketchy..... Burger well prepared, very rare as I requested......sweet potatoe fries burned.... Dessert old or stale, no one finished their meals..... There was a wedding party there, and apologies were made, but that did not make up for that it was a special occasion for my party as well. This restaurant came very highly recommended......ah well, on any given day I am sure it is better.
- great as usualPatrickDined on 8/24/2014I periodically go to the Raymond when I need to have a nice meal in a great setting. The ambiance is top notch, and it is fairly quiet and conducive to conversation. As opposed to some of the larger restaurants in town, it has a good vibe. Having a top notch bar attached doesn't hurt. Whether its a dinner for two or for a small group, your privacy is always respected and service is swell. Whether I bring family or VIP clientele, I feel good about the place.Special Features:
- Cozy GetawayJonathanCDined on 8/24/2014We finally made our way over for a Sunday brunch - reservations made the day before. The cute patio area seemed welcoming but we opted for air-condition and we were seated in the first dining room (where the air-condition is on full-tilt). Our server, Rebecca, was a sweetheart and when she found out it was our first time, offered recommendations and told us about the Raymond being a relaxing place for dinner, drinks and/or dessert. We ended up with German Pancakes, Ahi Sandwich, and an avocado salad - all were fresh and satisfying. Our drinks were constantly refilled and we felt at home in the home-turned-restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- overpricedJustokVIPDined on 8/23/2014bad service slow bar tenders had negative attitudesSpecial Features:
- cleggDined on 8/23/2014Our dinner experience was just a hair shy of perfect. The food was terrific and the ambiance and service were likewise excellent. I rated the overall experience as four star instead of five is that we told the restaurant it was for our wedding anniversary and asked, in advance, that they recommend and ideal table. The hostess had no idea what we were talking about when she said "where did we want to sit." There are multiple seating areas in the restaurant offering a different ambiance and we hoped they would know which was probably best for a couple on this special occasion.Special Features:
- Not Well MaintainedhiphopkinsVIPDined on 8/17/2014We have been going here for years but this time our menu was dirty and literally falling apart (pages fell out), we had to go to the bar to get our own drink menu because service was slow, my salmon was overcooked and for $30ish it just wasn't worth it. We left very disappointed and won't be back for a while.Special Features:
- Fantastic food and serviceEnjoy2dineDined on 8/15/2014This not a first time Every time we are always amazed at the friendly and attentive service and great food!! And great wine list and drink list!! Definitely a gem!!! Raving fansSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

SHERMAN, Tex. -- The first lady of Aggieland is spending the holidays with one Sherman family. Reveille VII, the Texas A&M University mascot, needed a place to stay, and assistant mascot corporal, sophomore Jess Terrell, got put on dog duty.
That means Reveille rules the house. She will be Terrell's constant companion until December 30th. He cannot leave her alone. She has to be at his side everywhere he goes.
Weekly professional grooming and regular physical activity are also part of the duty.
"Well it's a great honor, but it's also a big responsibility. I worry that if anything happened to her... I mean it would be big news at College Station." Terrell says.
Terrell says Reveille is enjoying her holiday break. It's the only time during the year that she's free from making appearances.

Region: Laguna Beach
The Halloween season came to a close, but that doesn't mean you can't still get spooked. Washington Irving's classic tale The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is equal parts ghost story and folk legend—and one of the oldest in America's rich history. Numerous television and film productions have taken liberties with the story, but the headless horseman character remains the same. Adapted for the stage, this version follows the original story of ill-fated Icabod Crane and delivers all the eerie chills and gloomy atmosphere of the town of Sleepy Hollow. Sometimes, nothing beats a good ghost story—and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is definitely one haunting ride.
Fridays, Saturdays. Starts: Nov. 8. Continues through Nov. 15, 2013

Approximately six weeks after graduation, diplomas are mailed to students. When diplomas ship from the printing company, students receive an email in their VandalMail account listing the mailing date and address.
Degree, major, and academic honors will appear on the diploma. Minors and options are printed on the transcript, but not on the diploma. Diplomas measure 11 x 8.5 inches for Baccalaureate, Masters, Specialist, and Doctorate degrees, and 14 x 11 inches for Juris Doctor degrees.
If you graduate with more than one degree (e.g., B.A. and B.S.), you will receive a separate diploma for each, but if you graduate with more than one major in a single degree (e.g., B.S.Bus. Accounting and B.S.Bus. Finance), you will receive one diploma.
Students must satisfy all unpaid student account balances through the Student Accounts Office before their diploma will be mailed. Likewise, students with a Perkins Loan must complete an exit interview through the Student Loans Office before their diploma will be mailed. Your diploma will be released if you pay your balance or complete your exit interview after graduation after the Registrar is notified that you have satisfied your account.
The address used to mail your diploma is taken directly from your graduation application. If you change your address on VandalWeb, it will not change the diploma mailing address. If you want to change your diploma mailing address, contact Graduation Services.
You may order a replacement if your original diploma has been lost or damaged. The fee for a replacement is $30 per diploma and it takes approximately two weeks to mail. Graduates wishing to order a replacement diploma for a change of name must submit an official name change request along with documentation. Depending upon the age of the original diploma it may be signed by the incumbent university officials.
A written request must be mailed or faxed for a replacement diploma including the following information:

Windows. I love looking out of windows.
I could spend all day looking out of a window. Which is why it's good that there are no windows in this office at work. I'm not distracted by the world going by and can actually get some work done. At my core, I am a windowsill dreamer.
The windows at home are another story. Most of our windows face south and overlook a long valley of farm fields, the closest of which is planted in alfalfa and corn. Nearly as much as the weather and the changing of the seasons, I love to watch the wildlife. Mostly deer, sometimes foxes. If I get caught in the lateral drift of a daydream, I can see giraffes and elephants grazing slowly in the savannas of my imagination; sometimes even the figments of those ancient and extinct North American mega fauna—wooly mammoths and saber tooth tigers—wander from the woods into the daylight of the field, just out of reach of some Pleistocene spear.
But yesterday I saw turkeys. Four of them. Four wild turkeys.
The turkey is a symbol of sacrifice, renewal, rebirth. The wild turkey giveaway. Take it, it's all yours. The turkey spirit reminds us that nothing lasts forever and everything is in a constant state of change. And so it goes….
At the crux is the flux.
Yes, I love to look out of windows, the double-paned dream machines that they are.
For me, windows are some kind of tangible yet messy metaphor for existing in this world—for being human. Something about perspective, or changing your perspective. Or: while the window—the fixed frame on the world—stays the same, the viewer is changing, the view is changing, the view is always being changed by being viewed by the viewer. (Whoa—that's some deep quantum stuff there).
A window offers a way to measure yourself against the world. It's like reading the same book at different periods in your life. Catcher in the Rye comes to mind. You read it at age 15 and it means one thing. Read it again at 25 and it means another. At 35, it's a different book altogether. But, whatever.
When I was kid growing up in rural Pennsylvania, I never saw turkeys. Not a single one. Lots of pheasants and geese, but never any turkeys. In recent years however, they have started to come back. I see their return as a good sign for the world—a good omen for a world in desperate need of good omens.
Windows are also great for making cold frames to extend your gardening season.

Sony: Our Xperia S tab COPIED Samsung's slab ... on price
Sony has said it won't compete on price as it prepares another attempt to invade the tablet computer market. The Japanese firm is about to start flogging its latest fondleslab, the Xperia S, in the US for $399 for the 16GB model, competing toe-to-toe with similar tablets from Samsung rather than lower-priced gear from Amazon and …
Sony the brand
As far as I'm concerned, Sony as a brand is forever tarnished by their dubious behaviour over the last few years. I'm not saying I wouldn't buy anything of theirs, but there would have to be a very good reason (significantly better, cheaper etc) for me to choose a Sony product over another manufacturer.
Re: Sony the brand
I think their product can be better. But I know from experience that their products can be annoying.
I bought a Sony external 2.5" drive basically to use the drive from it in my laptops (it's cheaper than buying just a hard drive). It was a nightmare to open and I cut my hand in the process.
When I did the same thing again for someone else I bought a cheaper brand (Verbatim I think) and got the drive out in seconds. Toshiba are the worst, it was a bespoke drive with USB3 built onto the PCB. Most brands just stick a little USB to SATA adaptor board into the case.
Re: Sony the brand
"It was a nightmare to open and I cut my hand in the process."
It's because of the patent on rounded rectangles. To avoid a billion dollar payout, Sony are just making sure everything is as sharp as possible...
Re: Sony the brand
I can't believe you complain if you take a product apart to strip out parts. You really are on your own at that point.
Re: Sony the brand
Couldn't agree more. Their reputation is still in tatters.
The 2005 Sony BMG CD Rootkit.
The 2010 PS3 Linux Shutdown.
The Sony F**K-YOU-CUSTOMER! bandwagon continues.
It was a shame the Tablet S didn't do a bit better, as I thought it was a cracking product. Excellent ergonomics (the wedge shaped design was a joy to use for extended periods), some great features (such as the IR Remote sender and the later mini-apps added with the ICS update), a few classic PS One games available through the PS Store, top notch sound quality and very very easy to use. I'm guessing it suffered for not being an iPad, but as I got bored of the Fruity Offering within about half an hour I was quite thankful for that.
Mine still gets used every day and I really do think we would sturggle without it. Our iPad 2 OTOH, hasn't been out of it's neoprene sleeve in about 3 weeks. I would love one of these new ones, however considering how hard the first one was to get past SWMBO (even though she uses it more than I do now), I may struggle to get a new one 1 year on sanctioned. Shame really, as this one looks lovely.
Why come on here to lie and justify why you made the wrong choice in buying the sony. I mean seriously do you exp[ect people to belive you shellwed on 400 on an Ipad 2 and then went and got a Sony for nearly the same money, and therfore don't use the iPad2 anymore? If you did not use it, you would have sold it long ago, and made nearly all tyhe money you spent on it back. Such and obvious lie!
Re: @Bodhi
I think, from what I can deduce from your inane, badly typed ramblings, that you don't believe I have 2 Tablets? Ever thought one might have been supplied by work? I mean I could sell it, but I suspect it wouldn't go down very well.
I also bought the Sony first, and it was quite a bit cheaper than the Apple one, with a 2 year warranty thrown in for free. It also gets used every day, as for my purposes, it is the better Tablet. I can easily play music from my PC upstairs (without a copy of iTunes in sight) whilst mucking about on the web, play the odd flash video, and control all the electronics in my living room with it. Then if I get bored of that I can have a quick game of Crash Bandicoot or Tekken.
So how did I buy the wrong Tablet exactly? Are you suggesting I could do all this with the iPad? Becuase if you have a way of adding an IR Blaster and PS Store I am all ears.
Buying their way out of SE may have been needed to consolidate all their products but it's bad news for their reputation and customer trust. Ericsson always offered some reassurance that Sony's natural 'shaft the customer' tendencies would be controlled and that moderation might leak across to the tablet division.
Now we just have the same serial customer abusers in control everywhere and I for one don't trust them an inch.
...and yes, still pissed that they dropped my Xperia Play the second the sale was agreed, then invented technical problems as cover. Bunch of shits.
Well LPF...
Because the Sony was not the wrong 'choice'. Its great design and the right aspect ratio for a start.
Swype capable too which is eminently better than any apple typing solution. Did I mention the USB and expandable memory?
You keep drinking the coolaid mkay.
Clearly not competing on price...
While the Sony has some nice features, the added $100 for the 32 GB version puts it way over some solid offerings by Asus. You get the choice of the 16GB Sony at the same price as the 32 GB TF300, where it wins on features but has more limited app storage, or the 32 GB version for the same price as the TF700 with its faster processor and better screen. A smaller price bump for the extra 16GB would make it more attractive (does it really come anywhere near $100 to add 16 GB storage?).
Brand Awareness
The sort of people who would buy a tablet because it's a Sony have already bought iPads.
Re: Brand Awareness
not sure what side of the fence that is aiming at,
but sure, a Japanese or american car, which would you pick? . Apple seems to be strikingly similar to GM of the late 90's in their (no matter what we make the customers will buy it in droves) attitude. I'll take Japanese quality and control any day. And for the record Im still on my original PS3, and 5th xbox. The iphone has barely changed since 2007 and sells like hotcakes. Doesnt exactly represent an intelligent purchase.
Agreed about the 1st gen. Tablet S. A very good first effort from Sony and I also use mine every day.
I suspect its sales were impacted by the lack of an oleophobic coating on the screen, which meant the screens of demo units in Currys etc looked greasy and dirty compared with the Samsungs and iPads.
A classic penny-pinching cock-up that I assume Sony will have fixed in the new iteration.

Video: Future Kitchen Has Flashy Food, 'Smart' Pantry and the Counter's a Stove
Among all the new-fangled gadgetry at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) that wrapped in Las Vegas last week was a more down-home exhibit that offered an exciting peek at the kitchen of the future.
As explored in the video above, Fulton Innovation's eCoupled Wireless Power technologies enables product containers from cereal boxes to pet food to light up in eye-catching ways.
Wireless sensors can also maintain an electronic kitchen inventory. A computer monitor on a kitchen cabinet can be updated to show when a container of Campbell's soup, say, has been eaten and will need repurchasing on the next grocery run.
Another application Fulton Innovation is pursuing is inductive charging – the same method that charges a wireless toothbrush – in countertops.
Rather than putting a saucepan filled with water on a hot stovetop in order to boil, inductive charging can heat that water without in turn making any other surface – including the pan itself – dangerously hot.

Cover Georgia: Supporting the Medicaid Expansion
Under the Affordable Care Act, states can create a new category of eligibility for Medicaid to cover low-income individuals and families, financed almost entirely with federal dollars. Implementing this expansion is the only viable way to cover Georgia's low-income uninsured, and it will pump resources into our state's health care delivery system. We can't miss this opportunity to improve access to health care and to strengthen Georgia's health care economy, but we need your voice to make it happen.
Health care consumer and patient advocacy groups, providers, stakeholders, and community groups are coming together under the Cover Georgia umbrella to show support for expanding Medicaid, and we invite you to join us. If you are interested in getting involved in this discussion, please contact Laura Colbert, Georgians for a Healthy Future's Community Outreach Manager, at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Leaving your home out of the retirement equation
- Written by Charles Sims Jr.
Plummeting prices and increased borrowing cut U.S. home equity by more than 60 percent during the Great Recession.
Sims Jr.
In this type of market, it's not surprising that many homeowners who borrowed against their home equity have found themselves owing more than their homes are worth. Homeowners with a second mortgage are more than twice as likely to be "underwater" than are homeowners with only a first mortgage.
The good news is that housing values typically recover from downturns. But no matter which way the market heads, it's probably not a good idea to count on the value of your home to help fund your retirement.
Potential risks of downsizing
Although moving to a less expensive home could be appropriate for some people, the falling market of the last few years demonstrates that you may not always be able to sell your current home at the price you expect. Transaction fees and moving expenses could also leave you with substantially less cash than you were anticipating.
It might be more realistic to view downsizing or moving to a different area as a personal choice rather than a way to pay for retirement. If you place too much emphasis on your home equity in your retirement strategy, it could lead you to underestimate how much you may need to save for a comfortable retirement.
Shifting into reverse
A reverse mortgage may allow homeowners age 62 and older to borrow against the value of their homes. They don't have to pay back the loans during their lifetimes for as long as they continue living in them. This strategy may be appropriate for some retirees, but it also involves substantial fees – and the amount you can borrow is typically much less than the actual value of the home. Because a reverse mortgage loan must be paid back after you stop living in the home for one year or more, it's likely that either you or your heirs may eventually be forced to sell it, risking exposure to the uncertainties of the housing market.
Your home might have substantial value, but it also provides shelter and may have sentimental value. You may be in a stronger position to make decisions about your home if you leave it out of the retirement equation.

Availability: Out of stock
Occasionally we offer complete builds which are bind and fly (ie: all you need is a transmitter and battery charger). This quad is also known as the "witespy" quad, as it is built and supported by "witespy" on rcgroups.com
Now we combined the popularity of the HoverThings VC-450 with the excellent FPV flight characteristics of the DJI Naza for the ultimate easy to fly quad copter. You will love the easy to fly autopilot mode of the Naza.
Because it features both auto level and altitude hold, it is extremely easy to fly, especially when doing FPV. The altitude hold works extremely well... it is possible to set the altitude to 1 or 2ft above the ground and fly around a field just a foot or two off the ground without ever touching the throttle! We were so impressed with the Naza we became a distributor just so we could include a VC-450 build with it.
Gains can be controlled fully from the transmitter or the software, or both, and it is as simple as enableing the channel you would like to use for remote gain adjustment.
The Naza VC-450 includes the Naza external ultra bright LED module which flashes it's status as you are flying. When autopilot mode is enabled, the LED flashes yellow. When the battery gets low, it begins to flash red, and as the voltage drops the flashing red light flashes faster... and when the battery reaches a critical low voltage the Naza will go into an auto-land routine. We have tested this and it works every time ... the quad lands gently without any input from the pilot.
All the quads come fully loaded, everything needed to fly except transmitter and battery charger.
Includes a battery and spectrum Receiver. All you need is a spectrum radio, and your ready to FLY. The the firmware can be upgraded, and is updated frequently to gain more features.
Please allow 2-3 days processing. We test fly EVERY quad before we ship. This adds a day or two to the processing time but we want to be sure YOUR quad flies perfectly right out of the box.

See Radio Options Below for FULL RTF configurations..Dx6i, Dx7s, Dx8 or Dx9
All custom built, tuned and tested to order. Due to recent high demand, please allow 2-3 weeks for quads to be built and shipped.

The altitude hold works extremely well... it is possible to set the altitude to 1 or 2ft above the ground and fly around a field just a foot or two off the ground without ever touching the throttle! We were so impressed with the Naza we matched it up with our hardware to make it the best flying machine to date. Stocked with the rapidESC Speed controllers!

How to encrypt your files and keep them safe
Maybe it's the Christmas shopping list you want stored away from prying eyes. Perhaps you want to keep your office documents extra safe in case your laptop is stolen. Whatever the case, the easiest way to get protected is by encrypting the relevant files and folders.
Some programs like Microsoft Word and Excel already offer this functionality. To encrypt whole folders and anything else you can download a free piece of software. We explain how to encrypt your files and keep them safe.
Security software program reviews – we rate the best antivirus products
1) Create the perfect password
An encrypted file is only as secure as the password protecting it, so don't go using 'password' or '123456′ to keep your personal documents safe. Especially when we've got a step-by-step guide to creating the perfect password that will help you no end. Essentially, using a mix of numbers, symbols and capital letters is key.
2) Encrypt your Office documents
Adding a password to any Word document is easily done. Just click on the File tab at the top of the screen, then Tools > Protection and Encrypt with password. Then it's just a matter of typing in your chosen password.
3) Encrypt PDF documents
PDFs are similarly hassle-free to encrypt. Select View > Tools > Protect > Encrypt with password. You'll even get a colour-coded indicator to show the strength of your password.
4) Google Drive and Dropbox encryption
If you've got any files stored in the cloud, then you'll want to be certain that no one but you can look at them. The good news for users of Dropbox or Google Drive is that this is already the case. Google introduced encryption for all its cloud storage customer data in August this year, while Dropbox has used similar techniques to protect your documents for some time now.
5) For everything else, use TrueCrypt
Still got files you want encrypted? You should download TrueCrypt for free, install it on your PC and then click Create Volume. If you're not planning on encrypting a lot of files, we'd recommend making a 'container'.
Next choose where you want the data to be stored on your hard disk, specify the amount of space you want your file to take up, and enter your password. Now you have a volume, you can store as many files in it as you please by clicking Select File and 'mounting' them. This may sound like a complicated process but it's easy enough to get the hang of.

Is it safe to use TrueCrypt with Windows 8? According to the TrueCrypt website, "Full support for Windows 8″ is "planned to be implemented in future versions." At present, Windows 8 does not appear on their list of "Operating Systems Supported for System Encryption."
Encrypting using DropBox's or Google's own encryption is not a panacea if they are hacked – it's only safe if you are in control of the encryption, so use TrueCrypt (or something similar) yourself before the file goes into the Cloud – besides, you don't want Google to be able to read your files do you :-)
PS I recently read a very favourable review of Boxcryptor, which is integrated with the cloud services and encrypts/decrpyts automatically as you put files in and out of the cloud. It also works with Windows 8/8.1 after a small tweak to turn off Windows' own encryption (applies to some versions of Windows 7 too)
How do we know that any encryption product can't be decrypted via the 'back door' allegedly approved by our friendly national security agencies?
Only the inbuilt encryption from Microsoft has the possiblity to have a goverment back door installed.
TrueCrypt with an open source algorithm like blowfish cannot have the backdoor as the coding is peer reviewed.
fab top tips Which – thank you very much :-)
In the light that I have recently received a flurry of 8 or so unsolicited emails from "Nat West" (not the high street bank of course!)….. Luckily I deleted each unopened, trotted into my local branch of Nat West & their Fraud Team dealt with the senders (of which there were 8 separate email addresses?!!!!)
Be forewarned folks – I was lucky……
To answer an earlier question, TrueCrypt claims to be available for Mac OS X.
TrueCrypt has appeared to work well for me for several years on files shared between Windows and Linux. If my home networked drives or USB sticks get stolen, hopefully none of my most critical data will be readable.
One thing to check carefully though. At one point my HP Windows Vista laptop managed to remember my TrueCrypt password, so if anyone stole it, they could have read my encrypted files. I think it was one wrong click and some Hewlett Packard software that came with the laptop that did it.
Will this post be updated with how to proceed now TrueCrypt has been discontinued by its secretive developers?

Electric attic calefaction is now acceptable abundant added accepted as a agency of heating a home in assertive climates if heating is alone appropriate in the morning and a few hours at night.

Ride went really well. It wasn't a race styled event, but me and two pals ended up establishing a brisk paceline and two of us broke away at the end to tie for first ones in. 18.2 mph average speed, which is tough to maintain when your terrain often looks like this:
The only trouble is that I'm completely burnt out right now, and need to overcome enough inertia to finish swapping the chainrings on my mountain bike so I can do some trails before the snow comes...

That we love Carine Roitfeld is a given. That we've been obsessing over her next move following her departure from Vogue Paris is obvious. That we were somewhat underwhelmed by the news of her teaming up with Barneys New York is well, true but there's still the book to look forward to. Oh, and according to this picture, Carine's own collection too! Pardon our language but what the…?
The image in question was tweeted over the weekend by a certain Ms Amber Atherton, a self-described 'young business woman', who wondered aloud on her Twitter account, 'Carine Roitfeld's new womenswear label?! or just an odd [Hong Kong] label mishap?!' We wonder too, Amber!
Now, we have no actual proof that Carine has been busy at work designing her own label but the pic sure is intriguing! A rather late April fool's joke? The genius creation of a tuned-in-to-the-wishes-of-women-around-the-world Hong Kong entrepreneur? Or the real thing itself? One thing we know; Carine was here in London's The Wolseley restaurant, having tea with hairstylist Luigi Murenu and photographer Iango Henzi and we know because Derek Blasberg tweeted a pic of the three.
With no further information at the moment it's tricky to tell but we will not pass the opportunity to daydream about what a possible all-things-Carine-Roitfeld collection would look like! After all, Mr Carine Roitfeld aka Christian Restoin, is behind the stunningly chic Equipment silk shirts that we can't live without so could the two be exchanging manufacturing contacts over their morning café au lait?

Tradition: Hope Chest
In my own family we have always gotten our girls a hope chest for their 12th birthday, though Rachel's may have been for her 13th. Knowing that Sarah's birthday was coming up and we would be wanting to get her a hope chest, I spoke to my mom about my grandma's. Since it technically was mine, I thought that it would be special for Sarah to have it. My mom heartily agreed!
Sarah and my grandma were dear friends. They loved each other so much. Grandma would light up when Sarah would get to their house, and Sarah would climb up on grandma's recliner with her and they'd watch movies together. They loved the same movies! Sarah has a sparkling personality and is very imaginative, so she kept my grandma entertained!
This Friday, on Sarah's 12th birthday, she will be receiving her very own hope chest. She's been waiting for this day, watching each of her other sisters get theirs and watching them begin to collect items for their future homes. She will be more excited that it had belonged to her great-grandmother, and that it was her great-great-grandmothers hope chest. Sarah is the right girl to receive this. She is a romantic at heart and this will be so meaningful for her.
I'm teary-eyed right now thinking about it, because I know how special this will be.
I can't wait.

Glen Allen Resident to Sing National Anthem at Nationwide Race
When thousands of fans stand for the national anthem tonight prior to the Virginia 529 College Savings 250 NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Richmond International Raceway, all eyes will be on a Glen Allen resident fulfilling a lifetime dream of singing at a NASCAR race.
Twenty-two year-old Ryan Corbin of Glen Allen entered Richmond International Raceway's National Anthem contest last month and ultimately won the opportunity to perform prior to the race.
"I'm so excited," said Corbin. "Four months ago I was in the stands hoping I could sing at a race one day. And four months later I'm doing it. It's the chance of a lifetime and I've wanted to do it since I was five years old. I'm just overwhelmed with joy right now."
In August, the track hosted a month-long contest to determine who would perform the National Anthem prior to the Virginia 529 College Savings 250 NASCAR Nationwide Series race. Nearly a hundred submissions were received via e-mail, mail and through an open audition at Short Pump Mall. The second and final rounds were showcased at the mall and Corbin bested eight other finalists for the opportunity to perform.
Corbin is a huge NASCAR fan and was introduced to motorsports by his father. Following his first race, he was instantly hooked.
"Racing at Richmond is exciting in so many ways," said Corbin. "Forty-three cars on a short track at night, running side-by-side, watching them beat and bang for every lap! Now that's exciting, and the reason Richmond racing is so special. When you walk to your seat you can feel the vibrations as the cars go around and you can see drivers up close! It's just an all around amazing place!

"As we head into the holidays and the weather turns colder, the need for food becomes even more critical, but unfortunately our cupboards are nearly bare," said Jay Brown, the agency's director for the division of housing services. "Donations of food will allow us help provide." > Read more.

Standing Durga
The goddess Durga is one of Hinduism's most formidable warriors. She has no husband, but in some traditions, particularly in southern regions of India, she is said to be Vishnu's sister. This bronze image of the goddess emphasizes her relationship to Vishnu by showing her holding only the chakra and conch (instead of the many and varied weapons she usually carries) and posing her in the same upright stance seen in most representations of Vishnu.

Loretta's Songwriters HoF Performance Sparked Impromptu Encore
- Lee Ann Womack kicked off the Songwriters Hall of Fame induction ceremony last Thursday with a note-perfect rendition of Loretta Lynn's "You Ain't Woman Enough," and Blake Shelton performed a countrier-than-the-original version of Albert Hammond's "To All The Girls I've Loved Before," but Jim Allen says nothing compared to Lynn's performance of her own "Coal Miner's Daughter" and encore of "Don't Come Home A-Drinkin' (With Lovin' on Your Mind)."
- The new Jason Boland & The Stragglers album, Comal County Blue, drops on August 26th and you can listen to a few samples on the band's MySpace. Then head over to their website to check out the Celtic-influenced outlaw tune "Blowin' Through the Hills," which will be one of two iTunes exclusives.
- Several country albums from the likes of Todd Snider, Emmylou Harris and Jamey Johnson show up on the second part of American Songwriter's list of "Best Hidden Treasures."
- The Kasey Chambers and Shane Nicholson Rattlin' Bones disc that was released in Australia in April is coming to the US via Sugar Hill Records, as soon as it gets a street date. In the meantime, you can check out four of the tracks on MySpace.
- Word has it Tim McGraw will have a new album out this fall.
- The Front Porch Country Band posted the new video for their song "I Believe" on YouTube in conjunction with a contest for an iPod Touch. Just subscribe to their YouTube page and let them know what things you believe in.
- The oldest living member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, Kitty Wells, drops in at No. 9 on Country Universe's 100 Greatest Women.
She was called the Queen of Country Music, the genre's first major female solo star. In the fifties and early sixties, her string of hits were unprecedented for a female artist, as she began to prove the industry adage wrong: women could indeed sell records just like the men.
- Send a prayer up for Elizabeth Cook and her family, she lost her mother last week, a woman that Cook's friend Chelle Rose describes as Loretta Lynn without the fame.

Re: Boland and Chambers New Music – Even though myspace is considered a "social networking site", I joined it and still mainly use it as a "new music preview site". The 4 or 5 full songs you get from the myspace players beat the hell out of the 30 second samples you get from itunes…i have long mourned the death of the cassette-single, the two-song marvel that gave us cheap-skates a preview into an albums soul, but the proliferation of mypspace usage by bands to preview new material has helped heal that wound…finally.
"Blowin' Through the Hills" was recorded at Cherry Ridge Studio in Floresville, TX. Tommy Detamore did a great job producing it!
Artists are limiting the songs because their labels are AFRAID that these songs can be pirated off of myspace and other flash-based players. And while it can be done with some software, the results often remind me of when I used to tape songs on the radio as a child. Not good quality at all.
matt – thats right, the mainstream media higher-ups is doing that just for the $$$. They could care less about enjoyment in music as long as that one song pays expenses made from recording and advertisement along with the demand of profit. Can you say GREEDY!
Saw Tim McGraw last week in Kansas City and he did mention he would release his new album around September. His new material actually sounded pretty solid.
His show, on the other hand, was pretty disappointing. I expected a lot more from the one-time entertainer of the year. His stage set-up was small with a pretty typical light display and a trio of vertical screens. He showed up, sang his songs, and went home. Even the intro was a little awkward, as he simply walked out and waved to fans before opening up with one of his new songs on the upcoming album.
For a week, I was convinced that I thought poorly of it because my last three concerts (prior to Tim) were the return of Garth Brooks and a pair of Keith Urban shows, but I was proved wrong yesterday when I went out to see Adam Gregory, Ashton Shepherd, and Lonestar at a free concert yesterday.
Has anyone seen the new Lonestar yet!? I've been a doubter the past year after Richie McDonald (lead singer) left, but wow.. they put on a show. Dean Sams alone makes the show worth going to. I was expecting Cody Collins to be a pretty-boy, stuffed with cockiness and arrogance, but he wasn't, and he actually sounded pretty great. They played a few new songs but stuck to a lot of the classic Lonestar hits. They didn't play a single song from their latest non-Christmas album (not even "Mountains"), which probably isn't a bad thing.
I was hoping Tim McGraw was in the crowed somewhere, as even Adam Gregory showed more life in his show than Tim did.
Last thing: I know you all love Ashton here, and not sure how many have received the opportunity to see her perform live, but she sounds awesome live. Her twangy accent is nine times better in person!
Those of us who have Hey Y'all will remember that Elizabeth Cook wrote the song "Mama You Wanted to Be a Singer Too" for her mother.
Stormy, I remember that…
Zach, Ashton sings very well live. I've seen her twice. Once with her full band and one other time acoustically (@ CMA/Fan Fair).
Here is a very lovely youtube video of Ashton and Miranda Lambert singing some Merle.
Stormy, thanks to bringing that video to our attention. That's why I continue to love country music.
Glad you enjoyed it.
