well by reading comments on this article i must say that there are very few mature people here.It doesnt matter if u like GC,DD,Kratika, sameer aur Gurti.You should respect others opinion. u can't change others mind.If u like some actor/actress then don't force the other people to like them.
Every action has a reaction.If u will bash someone's fav actor/actress then they will bash ur fav actor/actress.If u really like/love ur fav actor/actress u will not bash others fav.
Request to IF's DT that please give many MODs to PV's forum b/c i'm sure many bashers and immature fans will go to PV forum just to bash the actors.
now just ignore all fools bakwas...
love u gurmeet,
kratika di,all the best...

September 12, 2004
Queen Creek is finally on the map. That's the weather map — on the evening news.
"You didn't see that a couple of years ago," Town Councilman Jon Wootten said.
The recent nod from meteorologists is just one of many indications that the area's youngest municipality, which turns 15 this week, has come a long way from its roots as a cluster of family farms to become a top beneficiary of the south East Valley's growth spurt.
Other signs include the 1.5 million square feet worth of commercial projects already working their way through the town's approval process, and the current estimated population of 15,000 — more than triple the heads counted during the 2000 census.
Despite the flurry of activity and change, Queen Creek officials have managed to cling tightly to a strict set of design rules and regulations framed by the town's founders in an effort to create a unique look and maintain high property values. Their tough stand on standards has drawn criticism from some, who say it has driven away lucrative projects and left some residents feeling unwelcome.
There are other concerns, too, including a still dormant downtown area and a mounting municipal debt that could spell disaster if a recession should freeze the many planned retail projects before they bear fruit.
Still, the town's ability to grow so quickly with such little compromise amounts to an urban planning miracle, engendered by equal parts skill, determination and luck, Queen Creek's founders said.
Faced with urban encroachment by Mesa and Gilbert in the mid-1980s, area residents Paul Gardner, Mark Schnepf and Steve Sossaman believed there was little time before their beloved community would be swallowed whole.
"We started to think, 'Are we going to be the back yard of all the other cities?' " said Gardner, owner of Queen Creek Water Co.
After much legal and political wrangling, the group managed to place incorporation on the ballot and convinced voters to support it by a considerable margin in 1989.
And then, nothing.
The ensuing recession left the nascent municipality's leaders with little to do but talk about the kind of town they would someday like to have. They had plenty of time — about five years — to discuss it in detail.
"Our vision was to be different from anybody else and a high-end community," Gardner said.
The result of those idle years was a comprehensive general plan that has become the town's blueprint and the rallying cry for its leadership. It's their Alamo.
Wootten, an engineer for Intel Corp., said the Town Council's strict adherence to the plan has been a source of conflict and criticism, but it has enabled Queen Creek to retain much of its rural look and feel despite rapid growth.
"It's very important to me, and I know it is to other council members as well," he said.
When development finally did start to approach the town in the mid-1990s, Gardner said much of it leapfrogged right over to nearby Pinal County because of the added expense and hassle of meeting Queen Creek's design standards.
"It drove the developers bonkers," he said.
But an unexpected thing happened. The growth rate accelerated, and interest rates remained low.
Suddenly, Queen Creek became the place for developers seeking to build mediumand high- end residential projects.
"It's like the perfect storm," Gardner said. "If we didn't have such high standards, we could have been completely built out by now."
Still, some residents — including former Mayor Mark Schnepf — said there are times when the current leadership could bend a little more.
"That's a criticism, that it's too inflexible and there is not enough ability to work with the town when it comes to new ideas," he said.
Recently, some residents have complained that their individual needs are being neglected for the sake of the general plan.
Some residents of Arroyo de la Reina, a 40-lot subdivision northwest of
Hawes and Ocotillo roads, have expressed concern that the "view fences" required by the town won't shield them from noise created by a much larger community going in across the street. Queen Creek prohibits block walls in all new developments.
"There could be up to 20,000 cars a day on that road," resident Chris Hunt said of Hawes, which is slated to be expanded from two lanes to five. "We would like Queen Creek to at least talk to us about building a wall in front of our subdivision."
Hunt and several neighbors attended a council meeting in April to express their concerns, but town officials steered the discussion toward other solutions, such as rubberized asphalt.
Developer Gerry Blomquist said he's had his own disagreements with town officials over the years, but he still respects their decisiveness and unique vision.
"Maybe it's a little more expensive to live here, but overall you know what you're getting," Blomquist said.
He likened the 15-year-old town to a teenager, saying officials were probably more accepting and open in the early years but have grown more doubting and inflexible after getting burned a couple of times by developers.
"It doesn't matter what you tell a teenager," Blomquist said. "They always know everything."
Still, Town Manager Cynthia Seelhammer pointed out that some of the town's ordinances allow unusual flexibility, such as the ones dealing with animals.
"Our rules on livestock are probably among the most liberal you will find,"
Seelhammer said.
Lofty standards also come with a high price tag, and Queen Creek is planning to increase its debt to as much as $65 million to meet the level of services town officials say residents expect.
The town will ask voters in November to approve a $40 million loan from the Water In frastructure Finance Authority to participate in a regional sewage treatment plant with Mesa and Gilbert.
The town's financial staff in May suggested options for reducing the proposed debt load by up to $14 million, but most elected officials rejected the idea.
Still, Queen Creek financial consultant Patrick Flynn said all growing communities face financial challenges, and Queen Creek is no different.
"The sky is not falling, by any stretch," said Flynn, a former Tempe assistant city manager.
Flynn said town officials have discussed the possibility of a local property tax but do not have plans to seek voter approval for one any time soon.
"There's only so many ways you can raise revenue," he said. "The town has done an extremely good job of balancing its finances."
Queen Creek's assistant town manager, John Kross, said the town conducted a study recently to show that it isn't spending too much money on employees, as some have criticized.
"There was a misperception that Queen Creek was overstaffed, that there were too many people on the payroll," Kross said.
However, the comparison study revealed that Queen Creek's 4.6 employees per 1,000 residents is considerably lower than Peoria, Flagstaff, Avondale and several other municipalities.
As more revenuegenerating commercial developments such as Home Depot, Safeway and a planned Bashas' open their doors, concerns about Queen Creek's future finances should decrease, Flynn said.
And you can rest assured that the buildings will be immaculate.

Iran launches submarine as US navy drills in Gulf
Published on Sep 18, 2012 10:05 PM
DUBAI (REUTERS) - Iran launched a submarine and a destroyer into the Gulf from Bandar Abbas port on Tuesday at the same time as United States (US) and allied navies held exercises in the same waters to practice keeping oil shipping lanes open.
Teheran has repeatedly threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz, a route for oil exports from the Gulf, if Iranian nuclear sites are attacked by Israel, which believes Teheran is trying to develop an atomic bomb.
The US, Britain, France and a number of Middle Eastern states are conducting a naval exercise in the Gulf this week, focusing on how to clear mines that Teheran or guerilla groups might deploy to disrupt tanker traffic.
Iran's refitted Tareq-901 submarine and Sahand destroyer were launched on the direct orders of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the official Islamic Republic News Agency news agency reported.

Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), 26/02/2012
Yamaha Factory Racing riders Jorge Lorenzo and Ben Spies were the star guests this afternoon for the 'First Ever' International MotoXpo Show in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia). The MotoGP riders arrived in Malaysia early for the second of the two Sepang tests to attend the event as guests of Hong Leong Yamaha Motor.
MONTEREY, Calif., February 23, 2012 – Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca kicks off its 55th season with the American Le Mans Monterey, presented by Patrón, an exhilarating six hour endurance race, May 11-12.
Featuring multiple classes of high-tech sports cars competing together, the American Le Mans Series sees constant passing and on-track battles throughout each race. The six hour endurance race takes competitors from daylight, to dusk and into the darkness, pushing drivers' and crews' mental and physical abilities.
The 2011 American Le Mans Series Championship was secured, with one race to go, at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last fall by Dyson Racing who won the LMP1 Drivers and Team Championships. At that same race Mazda won the Engine Manufacturer title and Dunlop the Tire Championship. Dyson Racing wrapped up the Michelin Green X Challenge championship for the year at the season-ending Petit Le Mans.
A notable new entry to the 2012 American Le Mans Series is Lotus Alex Job Racing. This is the first time a factory backed Lotus has participated in the Series and they couldn't have chosen a better partner; Alex Job Racing is the longest competing and most successful team in the American Le Mans Series. IndyCar veteran Townsend Bell and ALMS Founders Cup winner Bill Sweedler are the team's drivers.
The Mazda MX-5 Cup, Unlimited Racing Championship, Cooper Tires Prototype Lites powered by Mazda, Cadillac Pirelli World Challenge and IMSA GT3 Cup Challenge by Yokohama support races provide on-track activity throughout the weekend. Off-track offerings include driver autograph sessions, grid walk, race simulators, tech talks, and of course, plenty of food, beer, wine and Patrón.
Advance purchase general admission is $60 for a two day pass. Children 12 and under are free with a paying adult. There is free parking and VIP parking available for $30. Hospitality options start at $250 per person.
MONTEREY, Calif., February 27, 2012 – With a unique sound all their own, historic Ferraris and their modern-day relatives will take to the race track May 18-20 for Ferrari Racing Days.
"We had a tremendous response to this event last year," says Gill Campbell, CEO/general manager of Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. "Ferrari's have such a loyal following and we had participants and spectators from around the world turn out to see these cars in their natural environment – the race track."
From the 14-year-old who snuck into a Sports Car Racing Association of the Monterey Peninsula (SCRAMP) volunteer barbecue to the well-respected race car driver he is today, Townsend Bell, will be a welcome sight as he returns to his home track at the American Le Mans Monterey, presented by Patrón May 11-12, 2012.
America's Car Museum (ACM) and Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca (MRLS) have entered into a reciprocal marketing agreement that provides advertising and display opportunities for the museum during events at the raceway in Monterey, Calif., with similar opportunities for MRLS at the new automotive museum opening in Tacoma, Wash. in June.
Under the five-year agreement, Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca will become the "Official Race Track of America's Car Museum," receiving advertising opportunities in museum publications and access to ACM's Club Auto satellite facilities.
The Coalition of Monterey County Chambers of Commerce held a special reception February 16 to present Gill Campbell, CEO/general manager of Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca with the 2012 Economic Leadership Award. The recognition was for Campbell's dedicated leadership in economic development and contribution of substantial resources to chambers of commerce throughout the Monterey county region.
Following a successful 2011 season with ABC/ESPN which resulted in a double-digit increase in audience size, the American Le Mans Series presented by Tequila Patrón today unveiled its full broadcast schedule for the 2012 season, highlighted by four live broadcasts, four ABC broadcasts and an entire season of lap-by-lap coverage online.
Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca was among six local businesses honored by the Monterey County Business Council at its 16th Anniversary Gala held this past Saturday. The world renowned race track received an Economic Vitality Award in the tourism category for its ongoing work in attracting significant business revenue and worldwide media exposure to the Monterey Peninsula.
The Yamaha Factory Racing Team completed the first test of the 2012 season at the Sepang International Circuit in Malaysia. Riders Jorge Lorenzo and Ben Spies spent the three track days working to develop the base set up of the 1000cc YZR-M1 ahead of the second Sepang test in one month's time.

Former Indian skipper Sunil Gavaskar believes that Alastair Cook has the ability to score 15000 runs in Test cricket, including 50 centuries before the latter calls time on his career. "With this kind of form and even if his form drops a little, 15,000 Test runs and 50 Test centuries are not beyond him," Gavaskar lavished his praise on the England skipper, who completed 7000 runs at a young age of 27 and with 23 tons has the highest number of centuries for his country. "The only unpredictable part in one's career is injuries. If he can get away without any serious injuries, then these landmarks are not beyond him," the legendary opener said on Thursday. What Gavaskar liked about Cook was the left-hander's ability to concentrate and his keen eye on the ball. "Concentration is a God given ability. What I like about Cook is that he is looking at the ball everytime. Even when he is standing at the non-striker's end. That's one way to keep your concentration going," he explained. "There are a lot of players who look everywhere. Like Ravi Bopara who is very talented but has a habit of looking here and there. The focus should always be on your job." On a different note, he conceded that a total of 316 in the first innings is "not a par-score" on this kind of track. "On a good pitch like this, 316 is not a par-score. You need to score 450 and bat atleast four and half or five sessions. But once you get out inside four sessions, it is always difficult to come back," he analysed. "In the sub-continent, the second day is always best for batting and the Englishmen capitalised on it. They have already batted for two and half sessions and if they can bat another three, then it will be very difficult for India to make a comeback." Gavaskar agreed that dropping an in-form player like Cook proved costly but was also critical of the composition of slip fielders. "Pujara normally fields at forward short-leg. After Rahul and VVS (Laxman) retired, it has been Viru (Sehwag) at the first slip and Virat (Kohli) in the second slip. I don't why Viru was standing in the slips only to spinners," Gavaskar said.

It is always easy and rewarding to accept statements of our leaders and be complimented as Patriotic and if you question the words or the lives of these people, you had it,
I published an article stating that there are numerous references , documents and articles on the Nehru Family.
On Nehru being born in a Brothel,his father Motilal Nehru running it,
On Sonia Gandhi's Profile,Her Educational Qualifications. her reported involvement in the theft of Antiques from India,Her father having been a Nazi,
Her close association with Quattarochi , Bofors Deal,KGB paid Sonia and Rahul Gandhi.
On Rahiul Gandhi's educational qualification.
I had received a lot of compliments for providing information with authentic sources, I also received criticisms.
Some of them abusive.
Of the mildest criticism I received this one I choose as the best.
'One who comments on Sri Chakra should not comment on others like this"
This is from a reader in Facebook.
I understand.
Much as I would like to avoid writing about these voluntary characters, and willful propagation of falsehood as Truth, including in School text Books,
I feel I should not shy away from the Facts backed by documents.
This is the purpose of my posts on these subjects.
If contrary views are presented I am willing to post them.
All in the purpose of making people aware.
We have been taught in History ,in Schools, that China attacked India, while chanting Indi Chini Bhai Bhai, after attending a Conference , thus stabbing Nehru and India in the back.
Curious in India is the fact that the nation is equated to a Politician!
This tradition continues even today.
What are the facts of Chinese Aggression?
1.The disputed territory, if one were to go by the earliest ownership(reasonably , about 250 years earlier,if one were to extend this beyond this point there is no India!), was owned by the Chinese.
2.After the conquest by the Sikh Confederacy of Ladakh in 1842 the territory became a disputed one with the Chinese as it was owned by The Chinese and
when the British conquered the Sikhs, the territory became territory which was guaranteed by the Kashmir,which was defeated by the Sikhs , who were
finally taken over by the British.
So British control in a guarantee of Fourth Order,,British to Sikhs, Sikhs to Kashmir, Kashmir to Ladakh!
This is the ownership of the territory for which China attacked India.
Was China's attack unprovoked?
Nehru provoked it.
At the beginning of 1961, Nehru appointed General B. M. Kaul as army Chief of General Staff,[32] but he refused to increase military spending and prepare for a possible war.[32]According to James Barnard Calvin of the U.S. Navy, in 1959, India started sending Indian troops and border patrols into disputed areas. This program created both skirmishes and deteriorating relations between India and China.[8] The aim of this policy was to create outposts behind advancing Chinese troops to interdict their supplies, forcing them north of the disputed line.[8][26][30][33] There were eventually 60 such outposts, including 43 north of the McMahon Line, to which India claimed sovereignty.[8][13] China viewed this as further confirmation of Indian expansionist plans directed towards Tibet. According to the Indian official history, implementation of the Forward Policy was intended to provide evidence of Indian occupation in the previously unoccupied region through which Chinese troops had been advancing. Kaul was confident, through contact with Indian Intelligence and CIA information, that China would not react with force.[19] Indeed, at first the PLA simply withdrew, but eventually Chinese forces began to counter-encircle the Indian positions which clearly encroached into the north of McMahon Line. This led to a tit-for-tat Indian reaction, with each force attempting to outmanoeuver the other. However, despite the escalating nature of the dispute, the two forces withheld from engaging each other directly.[2]
Chinese attention was diverted for a time by the military activity of the Nationalists on Taiwan, but on 23 June the U.S. assured China that a Nationalist invasion would not be permitted.[34] China's heavy artillery facing Taiwan could then be moved to Tibet.[35] It took China six to eight months to gather the resources needed for the war, according to Anil Athale, author of the official Indian history.[35] The Chinese sent a large quantity of non-military supplies to Tibet through the Indian port of Calcutta.[35]
Early incidents
Various border conflicts and "military incidents" between India and China flared up throughout the summer and autumn of 1962. In May, the Indian Air Force was told not to plan for close air support, although it was assessed as being a feasible way to counter the unfavourable ratio of Chinese to Indian troops.[36] In June, a skirmish caused the deaths of dozens of Chinese troops. The Indian Intelligence Bureau received information about a Chinese buildup along the border which could be a precursor to war.[36]
During June–July 1962, Indian military planners began advocating "probing actions" against the Chinese, and accordingly, moved mountain troops forward to cut off Chinese supply lines. According to Patterson, the Indian motives were threefold:
- Test Chinese resolve and intentions regarding India.
- Test whether India would enjoy Soviet backing in the event of a Sino-Indian war.
- Create sympathy for India within the U.S., with whom relations had deteriorated after the Indian annexation of Goa.[20]:279
On 10 July 1962, 350 Chinese troops surrounded an Indian occupied post in Chushul (north of the McMahon Line) but withdrew after a heated argument via loudspeaker.[9] On 22 July, the Forward Policy was extended to allow Indian troops to push back Chinese troops already established in disputed territory.[26] Whereas Indian troops were previously ordered to fire only in self-defence, all post commanders were now given discretion to open fire upon Chinese forces if threatened.[26] In August, the Chinese military improved its combat readiness along the McMahon Line and began stockpiling ammunition, weapons and gasoline.[8]
Given his foreknowledge of the coming Cuban Missile Crisis, Mao Zedong was able to persuade Nikita Khrushchev to reverse the Russian policy of backing India, at least temporarily.[37] In mid-October, the Communist organ Pravda encouraged peace between India and China.[37] When the Cuban Missile Crisis ended and Mao's rhetoric changed, however, Russia reversed course.[37]
Confrontation at Thag La.
In June 1962, Indian forces established an outpost at Dhola, on the southern slopes of the Thag La Ridge.[8] Dhola lay north of the McMahon Line but south of the ridges along which India interpreted the McMahon Line to run"
Chinese Attempt at Mediation.
"He struck a match, and held the paper to the flames… He said it would take more than a quarter of a century to return to any substantive negotiation, provided the Chinese refrained from another attack on India.'
On October 24, Premier Zhou received PKB; the atmosphere was 'definitely chilly'.
PKB writes, 'He then said that the conflict had to stop, it had to end! He had therefore written a letter to Mr Nehru with three proposals: 1. The two countries should immediately agree to respect 'the line of actual control', and their armed forces should disengage and withdraw 20 km from this line; 2. The Chinese troops in the eastern sector would withdraw north of the line of actual control; 3. The prime ministers of the two countries should meet to seek a friendly and peaceful settlement.'
In reply PKB presented the Indian viewpoint, adding, 'China had agreed in 1960, when Zhou had visited New Delhi, to maintain the status quo in the North East Frontier Agency area. At this point he interrupted me sharply by saying that it was not true; he had never given such an assurance.'
On November 19 and 20, PKB had two more meetings with Zhou.
In December 1962, PKB was instructed to come to Delhi for the Sri Lankan prime minister's visit; the six non-aligned mediator 'Colombo Powers' — Myanmar, Cambodia, Egypt, Ghana, Indonesia and Sri Lanka — had advanced proposals to ease India-China tensions.
This was PKB's first visit to Delhi during the assignment. Little wonder PKB felt he did not understand New Delhi's thinking.
On January 7, 1963, PKB was summoned, told that he should come alone.
PKB writes, 'He (Zhou)' was in a pensive mood and somewhat tired, and said… he would like me to carry his very personal and verbal message only for Mr Nehru's ears. He continued that war never solved any problems, but only created new ones… positive steps were urgently required besides public declarations and political statements. Mr Nehru, a man of high philosophy and great vision, and he had known each other personally over a period of many years. He understood Mr Nehru's current political predicaments, but Mr Nehru should try and understand his (Zhou en-Lai's) position as well. Mr Nehru should help Mr Zhou en-Lai's hand, and a hand extended in friendship and cooperation…'
'1. For the next three months, Mr Nehru and he would stop making negative statements about each other's country although this may not stop others from making statements of counter-productive nature. 2. Mr Nehru and he should meet as soon as possible with only a small entourage, away from the press and publicity, in an agreed place, in order to exchange ideas for an agreed and joint action to defuse the current situation. This meeting in total privacy should last no longer than two days. 3. After this meeting, which would further ensure in every way the strengthening of the cease-fire line, the two governments would draw up a programme where they could jointly cooperate in areas like trade, science, culture and technology…'
'When the climate for mutual trust had been created, then the border disputes would be discussed, on a sector to sector basis, by the two countries… He requested me again to give this strictly private and personal message directly to Mr Nehru.'
PKB decided to tell no one in Delhi about the content of Zhou's message, not even Foreign Secretary M J Desai. He met Nehru several times, '(Nehru) wanted me to go with him to his office in South Block. In the car he… was mumbling to himself, "What went wrong, where did I go wrong?" During my stay in New Delhi, I was with Mr Nehru a number of times, and used to hear this type of monologue…'
'(Some days later, at the prime minister's residence) He asked me about the message sent by Zhou en-Lai… immediately after the meeting with Chou, I had myself typed out so that no point might be missed… I gave him the one-page typed message which I carried constantly with me inside my wallet. He started reading it… going over it a few times. He then put down the paper on the table near him and seemed lost in thought…'
'He returned from his thoughts, looked at me and said that it was not possible since matters had gone too far. He added that during my stay I had met members of the government and the Opposition, press people, as well as ordinary citizens, and surely I must have reached the same conclusion that no one in India would stand anymore Chinese bluff and all nonsense.'
'He briefly recalled his efforts to help China with goodwill and friendship, and his close association with Zhou en-Lai, whose betrayal had led to fraudulent territorial claims by China and the invasion of India. He gave descriptions of meetings and details of discussions and negotiations with Zhou en-Lai. It was a melancholy monologue…'
Nehru's No to China for mediation

Hometown astronaut meets Waterbury students
WATERBURY -- Hometown hero and astronaut Rick Mastracchio may be orbiting 250 miles above the earth in the International Space Station, but that didn't stop him from paying a visit to thousands of local children at the city's Palace Theater Monday morning.
Appearing via a video link on a massive screen at the theater, Mastracchio offered encouragement to a crowd of 2,500 students and their teachers and even one of his own.

Sikorsky's X2 high-speed helicopter technology demonstrator is on track to achieve its targeted milestone of first flight by early December.
Sikorsky president Jeff Pino says the X2 demonstrator's forward fuselage, centre fuselage and tailcone have come together and that major system detail design has been completed.
Sikorsky is building the coaxial-rotor high-speed helicopter to cruise at 250kt (460km/h), compared with 150-170kt for conventional helicopters. The tandem-seat, single-engine demonstrator is being built by an offshoot of the company's Elmira, New York-based Schweizer Aircraft subsidiary - the Sikorsky Hawk Works.
"The first round of rotor testing is complete, the main shafts and transmissions are in fabrication and ground testing will begin later this summer. This completely new fly-by-wire control [when tested in a Model 333] performed flawlessly, displaying better than expected stability. The data gathered from this risk-reduction flight testing is now incorporated into the full X2 Technology fly-by wire system," says Pino.
He adds that Sikorsky has yet to make a decision on its ultimate application, whether military or civilian. "We have a lot of work to do and get our science right before we make that decision. There are several viable competitors on the marketplace, but we are confident about where we are."

First-term incumbent Wesley Grier, a Republican, faces fellow longtime Buford resident D.W. Cotton Cole, a Democrat, in the race for the County Council District 3 seat.
The district covers the Buford community, as well as the Camp Creek, Tradesville, Unity and Pleasant Dale communities.
Election Day is Nov. 4.

COLUMBIA – The W.J. Keenan Raiders lived up to their mascot of prey, forcing four Andrew Jackson turnovers that led to a 34-21 Region IV-AA homecoming football win at Bolden Stadium in Columbia on Friday night.Keenan's Arthur Goforth torched the Volunteers with 234 yards rushing and three touchdowns. In addition, Goforth caught two passes for 27 yards."Keenan is a very good football team," said AJ coach Louis Clyburn.
The South Point Stallions are thoroughbreds – a breed apart.The No. 2 Stallions, 7-0, 1-0, staked a solid claim to their lofty status, which includes a national ranking, with a 43-7 win over Lancaster in the Region IV-AAAA opener at Memorial Stadium.The Stallions bolted to a 15-0 first-quarter lead and added two second-period scores on the way to the 36-point win."Our players gave all they had, but South Pointe had too many weapons," Lancaster coach Bennie McMurray said.
The exhibit building, long a staple of the Lancaster County Fair, will be closed this year due to decreased interest.
For years, the exhibit building featured homemade crafts and produce from local residents, but participation dropped significantly during the last few fairs.
George Rollings, a fair organizer and a member of the American Legion, which sponsors the event, said organizers decided to close the exhibit building altogether this year.
Founders Federal Credit Union formally unveiled its plans for its new 110,000-square-foot headquarters Thursday.
The three-story building, called the Corporate Center, will be built on a 30-acre parcel of land at Gillsbrook and Plantation roads. The company plans to break ground in November and expects the project to take about 20 months. The project is expected to cost about $32 million.
Plans for the building have been in development for over a year, as Founders, the county and the city of Lancaster have worked to reach an agreement on the new facility.
KERSHAW – The smell of barbecue will fill the air this weekend as the third annual Hog Jam Festival comes to downtown Kershaw.
The festival will also feature a barbecue cookoff, at least 25 craft and food vendors, various musical acts and plenty of activities for children. Joyce Adams, Hog Jam committee chairwoman, is hoping for a large crowd this year. The festival has averaged around 3,000 visitors.
WINNSBORO – On Oct. 18, 19, 25 and 26, the sounds of a steam locomotive will once again echo over the hills and fields of Fairfield County.
The steam train will be operating over a section of the S.C. Railroad Museum's rail line, the former Rockton & Rion Railway, a 12-mile short line built in the late 19th century to haul granite from the Anderson and Rion quarries to the Southern Railway interchange at Rockton.
In the early 1970s, the railroad operations ceased and the track laid idle the next 10 years.
There have been numerous comments in this newspaper suggesting that no one seems to know anything about Mick Mulvaney, who is running for the S.C. Senate.
Got a question for a candidate running for office this year? If you do, you may want to ask a question and submit it for one of two upcoming political forums.
Candidates will be asked questions from voters at the Before You Vote 2008 Candidate Forum this Tuesday at the Indian Land Middle School gym. They will also face voters' questions at a second forum slated for Oct. 21 at Bundy Auditorium at the Bradley Arts and Sciences Building at the University of South Carolina at Lancaster.
I would like to respond to L.R. McGuire's letter "Don't use birthplace against a candidate," in the Oct. 1 edition of The Lancaster News. My input has to do more with how some people moving into our area feel about us and our schools.

OK, so I have a dpms sweet16 bull barrel rifle. I ordered a troy trx standard rail to put on the upper. When I went to reassemble the upper with the new rail I could not get the barrel nut on. It went easily over the front of the barrel but would not go past the section where the gas block is. I called dpms and troy to get exact measurements to see what is going on. DPMS says that the diameter of the barrel .936 and troy says the inside diameter of the barrel nut is 1.043. What gives? Any help is greatly appreciated. I attached a pic of a dpms barrel(mine isn't fluted) to give you an idea.

Use a caliper and measure the two. I doubt the barrel diameter is off, but the nut could of been machine incorrectly. Compare the measurements to what the manufacturer says they should be.

"Qui desiderat pacem, bellum praeparat; nemo provocare ne offendere audet quem intelliget superiorem esse pugnaturem"
Pardon the dumb question but you say "where the gas block is." Have you removed it? The barrel under the gas block may indeed be .930 but the block itself is higher. Does the nut thread on to the upper?
"The whole of the Bill (of Rights) is a declaration of the right of the people at large or considered as individuals.... It establishes some rights of the individual as unalienable and which consequently, no majority has a right to deprive them of." (Albert Gallatin of the New York Historical Society, October 7, 1789)
"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government." - George Washington
I measured when I got home today, and the barrel is larger than its supposed to be. It measured 1.045 instead of .936. Took it to a guy I work with and had him shave a little off the inner ring of the barrel nut. Fits like a charm now. Looks and feels better also. Thanks for the help. Pics are before (black)and after(black/tan)
So the barrel is out of spec? Crazy.
The bitterness of poor quality Lingers long after The sweetness of low price is forgotten.
-John Ruskin
To top just my barrel being out of spec, my friend ordered a 20" bull barrel from dpms and its the same size, so we actually had to rework two barrel nuts. 1 more pic
I can't believe a company can do something so many times and still get it wrong. People need to stop purchasing from these companies so they'll go away.
I was also kinda shocked by it. I really hate to say that too, b/c soooo many times i've read how dpms is out of spec, and i never really believed any of it, i mean it really shoots well is very accurate and it has been a really nice rifle. I guess the one good thing is that it is a bigger bull barrel than stated, i probably wouldn't be nearly as happy if it was smaller...
Is it just a bench rest gun?

Aguol, Kennedy Aaron (2003) Mass Culture of Arthrospira Platensis Utilizing Aerobically Digested Palm Oil Mill Effluent (Adpome). Masters thesis, Universiti Putra Malaysia.
A series of experiments were conducted to develop a mass culture technique of Arthrospira platensis, a blue-green alga, in freshwater and brackishwater (1S ppt) using different concentrations (1, 2, 3, 4 and S%) of aerobically digested palm oil mill effluent (ADPOME) in two trials. The cell growth, chlorophyll a, total protein, carbohydrate, lipid contents and fatty acid profile were also studied. Physiochemical water quality parameters (temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, salinity, surface irradiance, underwater irradiance, optical density, total ammonia nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, nitrite nitrogen, total nitrogen, phosphate phosphorus, total phosphorus, chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand and total dissolved organic carbon) were also measured throughout the study. Algal cell growth was best in 4% ADPOME, both in the freshwater and brackishwater conditions and culture cycles with mean cell dry weight of 706.98 ±285.52 and 479.79±204.53 mg L⁻¹, respectively. The highest chlorophyll a content was also observed in A. platensis cultivated in 4% ADPOME, in both freshwater and brackishwater conditions from both culture trials with mean chlorophyll a content at 10.12±6.10 and 8.40±5.23 mgL⁻¹ , respectively.

Lately, I have been choosing to let go of the chores and even some things I enjoy to find a bit of escape in a good book. It's an escape, for sure from the everyday hum of living a busy life but also, a way to achieve a state of mind that has no connection to real world obligations.
The household responsibilities will wait. The clutter is patient, even if I am not. My jobs, don't literally come home with me but, there are always routine tasks that must be completed. They can also be put off.
My participation on Spark is usually well spent with logging and social interaction but, also a commitment that drains time. Keeping track of my nutrition and fitness are important but, only one component of my path to health. And although, I do enjoy the verbal sparring and talk of politics on the threads, I find myself very picky lately in what discussions I participate in. It's not that I don't care or that I don't have an opinion. I'm just seeking some serenity. I need that as much, if not more than the jolt of adrenaline that follows the jib and jab of political debate.
I certainly get enough exercise and social stimulation. My diet, while not perfect, is pretty darn good. I'm living a comfortable life, like my jobs and love my family and have great friends. I should be able to lose this weight. So what's missing?
Serenity. It's part of the equation for sure. We all live busy lives. We all have responsibilities, chores and commitments to keep but, how many of us actively seek serenity? I think we must escape once in a while whether it's into a good book, a walk in the woods, the sanctuary of prayer or the zen of meditation.
I've realized that I must actively seek this peace and tranquility in order achieve my goals.....
I need to feed my soul.
I have team member LadyIrish to thanks for this blog. Her fantastic blog about lessons had a Doritos reference that made me laugh and remember.
I use to do taste testing for a major food company.....for seven years. Let me tell you, I can't stomach most commercial snack products because of that experience. Do you know how many different food chemicals it takes to make a snack chip taste like a vegetable?
I took the part-time job as a stay at home mom, when our kids were little, to supplement our income. The pay was good, the work was interesting and gosh who wouldn't want to get paid for eating snacks. Well...........it's not quite as appealing as it sounds.
Masticate and Expectorate were our buzz words...yes chew and spit. We worked in two hour shifts and could not possibly taste AND digest all of that CRAP and still be discerning enough to explain our thoughts on the developing product.
I was REALLY good at my job. I could detect flavors and identify spices with dead on accuracy.....because I LOVE food. But, Food Science is not about loving food. It's about fooling the taste bud of consumers into eating mass quantities of chips in one sitting. I learned things you never want to know about snack products and over time, I stopped eating most of those snacks.
I became a label snob. I would search for the product with the least amount of unadulterated ingredients or eat fresh and homemade instead commercially prepared.
To this day, it's stayed with me. Not to say I NEVER eat commercially prepared snacks but, I am choosy as can be, when I do.
I'm not giving up but, wanting to be a loser is not the same as being a loser. I have been exercising vigorously, have upped my veggie, fruit, protein and fiber intake and am working on the carbs. Still, no permanent weight loss this month. Winter has always been a hard thing for me. I usually gain 10 pounds and then lose them in the spring.
Last March I started on a new asthma medication (which works quite well) and since then, the weight won't budge (much). It jumps up a bit and I get it back down to where it started but, that's it. This medicine has no known indications that weight gain is a side effect but, I am beginning to think there is a relationship. There are spaces of time when I do not need to take the med and I start to lose but, I have to go back on it when the my symptoms flare and I'm back to square one.
I may have to check with the doc again to see what she has to say. Maybe it impacts adrenal or thyroid function. Or, maybe I'm just not working hard enough at being a loser. I've had success before, I can have it again.
Why can't being a loser be easy???
Eating out is never an easy proposition when trying to keep within the parameters of healthy eating.....calories vs. choices. Eating out two days in a row and eating restaurant prepared food that you LOVE, LOVE, LOVE is going to have an impact...no doubt there. So, my choice yesterday, was to limit my calories earlier in the day to make room for the Greek food orgy of last night. Not ideal but, better than just giving up entirely.
I also made semi-wise choices about what I ate AND eliminated one of the things that ALWAYS gets me in trouble when we eat out. BREAD. When I eat bread, I want to butter it, or dip it, or soak up juices with it. Even without the bread, there were carbs but somehow, I was able to enjoy my meal and and steer clear or limit the worst of the caloric offenders.
For appetizers, I enjoyed saganaki (flamed cheese), pan fried zucchini with skordalia (a garlic sauce made with mashed potatoes) in limited quantities. For dinner, I ordered fish....traditional, pan-fried codfish to be exact, saut�ed with olive oil and bread crumbs along with boiled beets and avogolemono soup ( I brought a small part of the large portion of fish home). Had a small glass of Rodytis wine and a metreo (sweet) Greek coffee. Even with my self-imposed limits, this meal cost me a whopping 1078 calories!
Still, eliminating bread, choosing fish, limiting high calorie appetizers and wine AND eating very light earlier in the day made it possible for to NOT feel deprived. Also, I stayed within my recommended caloric range for the day. An added benefit was that I did not feel STUFFED after eating. BTW, we ate at a very leisurely pace.
The night before, Italian-Night, I ate bread AND had pizza (more bread with cheese and meat), a slightly larger glass of wine in addition to a salad with dressing and felt STUFFED to the gills. This meal was, higher in fat, had a higher carb count, less protein and way more sodium.
No offense against my Italian cousins but, even with a similar calorie count I think I made better choices on Greek night. OPA!
Well, up to yesterday I had a pretty good week. I was feeling PRETTY SMUG! Dinner last night....did me in, put me over the edge, hung me out to dry, added more Crisco to the can......you get the picture.
I had a salad w/Italian dressing, bread, pizza and a glass of red wine. 1071 calories total! Now IF I had NOT had the bread and the wine(I could go to communion instead), I would have been at 740 calories for dinner and I would have been just under the high end of my suggested calorie range.
SO, next time we eat out...Oh damn, that's tonight!....I should eliminate the bread and the wine, right? Last night was Italian, tonight is GREEK...even worse for dieting....at least for me. I LOVE Greek bread and all the good stuff you eat it with. So, I'm gonna have to figure out how I can offset the good stuff with the good for me stuff. I'll report back on how I did. WISH ME LUCK!

Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa, at more than US$500 billion, and ranks 23rd in the world. A recent re-evaluation of Nigeria's true economic size doubled the previous estimate, and brought it well ahead of South Africa, which is a member (unlike Nigeria) of the G20 club for political as well as economic reasons. Nigeria's economy can be said to be quite diverse from one point of view, but heavily dependent on oil and gas at the same time. Oil and natural gas account for about 15% of Nigera's overall economy, but traditionally represent more than 90% of the country's exports and as...

Get The Best Deals On Quality Furniture
Get The Best Deals On Quality Furniture – When purchasing a home, have fun and style it with great pieces of furniture. If you're downsizing, you may have to buy more compact stuff. No matter your reason for needing furniture, this article will help you gain knowledge about how to shop.
Furniture can be expensive. That is one reason that used furniture might be a better solution. All sorts of quality furniture can be purchased used, and you can find it at local yard sales, certain discount stores and also in local classified ads. After you purchase the furniture, just get it reupholstered. This can provide massive savings.
Outdoor furniture should always be carefully examined before purchase to make sure it will last many seasons. Check for strong welds, sturdy construction and quality work. Check the welds, and if you find any that are weak, look for another piece. Instead keep looking around for a set that you can be sure will be able to handle the elements.
Think about the color scheme of your home when you seek out new furniture. If you buy something too bright, it might not go with the rest of your furniture. Reserve bold colors and patterns for your smaller pieces, and stick with neutral colors and patterns for the larger pieces of furniture.
Measure the area for your new furniture before you buy. No matter what type of furniture you are looking for, the space must be measured to insure it will fit. Just trying to guess can lead to problems. You have to follow these steps when thinking of buying things like sleeper sofas or recliners.
Before you buy that couch, inquire about its springs. If the salesman does not have the information you need, ask to speak to the supervisor. Make sure that springs extend from the front to the back by pushing down on the cushions on the sofa.

Tips On How To Be Efficient When Improving Your House
People have always wanted to make changes to improve their homes. Upgrading a home, renovating it, or even putting an addition on it can make it more livable, more beautiful, and add to its value. When you are a homeowner, you can always think of something to fix up your home. This following tips will not only help you estimate the difficulty of various improvements, but also tell you which projects will add the most value to your home.
Purchasing brand new furniture is a very costly enterprise. Garage sales and thrift stores offer furniture options at affordable prices. You can locate amazing gems among the trash. You may have to clean them up a bit, but it's worth the time you take.
You could make a unique choice in coffee tables rather than settling for something ready-made. Something like an old hope chest or a large stump can work well. You can even dress up a storage bin or shorten the legs of a larger table. The options are endless. A few magazines on the table can give it a bit of life. If you are going for a rustic feel, you can complete the look with some teacups and a tablecloth.
