When youve been waiting four years, whats 10 more minutes?
Wando rugby defeated Greenville, 10-3, in the state championship game Saturday at Furman University in Greenville to earn the programs first title in its four-year history.
Regulation expired with the Warriors leading, but the officials added 10 minutes of extra time. Greenville threatened inside Wandos 22-meter line with an aggressive attack throughout the bonus minutes, but the Warriors defense held solid to preserve the title win.
It was like a 10-minute goal-line stand, Wando head coach Tod Shepherd said. Our defensive front was unbelievable.
Greenville scored off a penalty kick 15 minutes into the game to hand Wando (10-0) its first deficit of the season. Junior Sam Huthwaite countered almost immediately for Wando, scoring a try 50 seconds later from five meters out to put Wando on top, 5-3.
Before the end of the first half, sophomore Jon Cummins added a second score from 10 meters out wide on the wing to send Wando into halftime with a 10-3 lead.
As soon as Greenville scored, we knew what to do, Shepherd said. We kicked off deep, turned the ball over, applied pressure right away and kicked it up a notch to keep that pressure on them.
Greenville ramped up its attack in the second half, searching for points but was shut down by the Warriors stronghold. Defensemen Sean Kiernan, Austin Clark, Ryan Moody and Micah Stewart led the blockade with one-on-one tackles against Greenvilles larger players to preserve the lead through the second half and extra minutes.
Those guys made solo tackle after solo tackle, Shepherd said. I cant believe some of the tackles we made.
The win marks the second time this season Wando has defeated perennial power Greenville and completes a perfect season for the Warriors. Fifteen seniors will graduate from this seasons team, including a core group who helped start the program as freshmen four years ago.
This is for the kids, Shepherd said. I wanted it so badly for the kids because I know how hard theyve worked. It really was a special group. Theyll have this to look back on for the rest of their lives.

Florida where I live is called (but is actually 3rd) the lightning capitol of the world. That being said we took a damn near direct hit about an hour ago ... My wife's treadmill is fried. I had to reconfigure the BIOS on my $2,000 main comp to redefine the RAID array to get it to boot. However it did boot. The battery backup took the brunt of the hit and still survived.
My $4,000 Server is also still running just fine ... Its battery backup however is fried. I can afford (sort of) a new battery backup ... but there is no way in hell I could replace the server right now.
Mind you it is not my intention to brag about the cost/value of my equipment, I'm sure a lot of folks here understand the need to invest in ones career ... and have even better stuff. I'm simply trying to show "the numbers" payoff for an investment I made years ago in making sure that surge protection was taken seriously.
If you've ever thought of buying a battery backup some day, make it today. It is worth it.

Raiders' LaMarr Woodley helped us say #ByeToTheBuck at our second-to-last match at our home for the past seven seasons. Thanks for his support!
Hangin with a couple new friends at last night's @SJEarthquakes game #Quakes74
While we host our own international friendly vs. Honduran-side C.D.S. Vida tonight at Buck Shaw, two of our mainstays, Wondolowski and Bernardez, will face off in Miami.
Wondo and the USMNT take on Muma and Honduras at FAU Stadium in Boca Raton, Florida tonight. While this match is only an international friendly for Klinsmann's squad, they're looking to get back to their winning ways after a late goal from Ecuador put a damper on their friendly last week. Meanwhile, Los Catrachos are looking to redeem themselves against CONCACAF opponents as well - coming off of a 2-0 loss against Mexico last week.
The match which kicks off at 5 p.m. PT will be aired live on ESPN, WatchESPN and Unimas.
We're continuing to go global! Two new #MilesToEpicenter billboards went up this week - one in LA and one in Toronto.
Needless to say, the LA board - located just a mile away from the StubHub Center - did not make LA fans happy on social media.
Wow. A @SJEarthquakes billboard along the 91 freeway less than a mile from @StubHubCenter. #lagalaxy #MLS pic.twitter.com/vIWt5f2TBW

Check out where all of our billboards are here, and don't forget to enter our #MilesToEpicenter contest for a chance to win two 2015 season tickets to our new home!
Even though the Quakes' new stadium isn't set to open until the 2015 season, it's already being nominated for awards.
Our new home is up for the the Silicon Valley Business Journal's annual Structures Awards, specifically in the Community Impact category. The Structures Awards are an event where the SVBJ recognizes key players in commercial real estate, development, construction and design, shining a light on the Silicon Valley stars in these industries.
The awards ceremony and dinner will take place on September 25 at the Fairmont San Jose. Tickets to the event are still available.
Don't forget - you can still secure your seat at our New Stadium for 2015! Get in early and receive great benefits.
In our first homegrown player's first start at home, Tommy Thompson did not disappoint.

Wondo's warm welcome back included fans waiting around SFO for his arrival. We sure did miss this guy (and baby Emersyn, too).
Alright, Quakes fans - on the eve of the 2014 California Clasico, we can't help but think of our time at Stanford Stadium last year. You all remember it, that stoppage time goal by Gordo that left us celebrating until we couldn't scream anymore.
We thought we'd relive that moment through your creative captions! Put your witty-ness to the test with this fantastic goal that left Gonzalez and the rest of the Galaxy stunned (or is he smiling?).
Leave your caption on this blog post to enter to win four tickets to Quakes vs. Galaxy at Stanford Stadium tomorrow. We'll choose the winner by 4 p.m. PT today.
And tell your friends tickets are still available to this match of the summer! Let's pack the place and #BeatLA.
UPDATE: Congrats to John Muskivitch - for his simple, yet awesome comment "Air Gordon!" He's won 4 tickets to Saturday's Quakes vs. Galaxy at Stanford Stadium.
Two things:
1. Massive style points to Bernardez and Los Catrachos - those blazers are sliiiick.
2. The World Cup starts in 2 days. TWO DAYS.

So what did you think about the fight??
It was not spectacular but had some good moments. Canelo was in paper a big threat but Mayweather made him look like a level B sparring partner.
In the whole fight there was not one single punch by Canelo where you can say "Woow, that was a very good punch", of course he landed some shots but Mayweather was never in any kind of trouble.
Amazing display by that judge declaring the fight a draw, Cecil Peoples would be so proud.
Mayweather looks absolutely fantastic, at 36 his speed and reflexes are absolutely insane. He may not be the hardest puncher but he hits a lot and does not get hit.
I see no one capable of beating him, like a couple of years ago I thought that Pacman would beat him, but nah, Pacman would get dominated too.
Mayweather looked very down to earth in his post fight interview, I thought he would sound way more arrogant.
However he should be fined for bringing those 2 clowns with him: The anorexic shirtless crappy rapper, and that lesbian with sunglasses.

|Previous College:
|University of Pittsburgh, 1984
|Assistant Coach
|1st Season
Chris Pompey roots have run deep in the East during a distinguished collegiate coaching that is entering his 14th season.
Pompey is now moving West to establish more success as an assistant coach at Cal State Northridge, according to first-year Matador head coach Reggie Theus.
Pompey served as an assistant coach when Theus served as head coach at New Mexico State (2005-06, 2006-07).
"Chris is a tireless recruiter, who is going to keep us connected all over the country on the recruiting trail," remarked Theus. "Chris will always get me in front of the best players in the country."
Pompey comes to CSUN after spending the previous three seasons at Seton Hall University, a school that is a member of the powerful Big East Conference. During the 2011-12 season, Seton Hall was the #1 seed in the NIT Tournament with a 21-win season.
"I am excited to be reunited with Coach Theus," said Pompey. "I look forward to working and building something great under the vision and direction of CSUN President Dr. Dianne Harrison and Athletic Director Dr. Brandon Martin."
Previous to Seton Hall, Pompey helped New Mexico State to national prominence during his four seasons with the Aggies. Highly regarded as a top recruiter, Pompey brought in student-athletes that helped the Aggies produce three 20-win campaigns, a pair of Western Athletic Conference Tournament titles (2006-07, 2009-10), a regular season league title (2007-08) and appearances in the NCAA Tournament during the 2006-07 and 2009-10 seasons.
In his first season at New Mexico State, Pompey helped recruit a Top-20 class that was rated third-best among mid-major schools in the nation by Rivals.com.
Pompey began his collegiate career at the University of Hartford in 2000 (2000-01 to 2005-06) in Connecticut where he helped the Hawks became one of the premier teams in the America East Conference. Hartford reached the semifinals of the American East Conference Championships three times (2001-02, 2002-03, 2003-04).

Slow JumpStart on a Sun Fire V240
From Brandonhutchinson.com
I was asked to investigate a slow custom JumpStart build over gigabit ethernet on a Sun Fire V240. Apparently, packages were installing at the rate of 40 MB/hour.
I noticed two problems:
- The sysidcfg file specified DNS name service, but the DNS server was unreachable. This really slowed down JumpStart. The time server was also unreachable (although it shouldn't affect JumpStart speed), so I put the following in sysidcfg:
name_service=NONE timeserver=localhost
- 100 Mbit transfers were 3-4x faster than 1000 Mbit between the JumpStart client and JumpStart server. I did a boot net -s and copied a ~120 MB directory from the JumpStart server:
1000 Mbit: 10-12 seconds 100 Mbit: 2-3 seconds
To force 100 Mbit during the JumpStart, I created a Begin script that disables the 1000 Mbit capability
#!/bin/sh echo "Current /dev/bge0 link_speed:" ndd -get /dev/bge0 link_speed echo "Current /dev/bge0 link_duplex:" ndd -get /dev/bge0 link_duplex ndd -set /dev/bge0 adv_1000fdx_cap 0 # Not needed ndd -set /dev/bge0 adv_1000hdx_cap 0 echo "Sleeping 10 seconds..." sleep 10 echo "New /dev/bge0 link_speed:" ndd -get /dev/bge0 link_speed echo "New /dev/bge0 link_duplex:" ndd -get /dev/bge0 link_duplex
(I don't know if the sleep command above is needed, but when I didn't have it, link_speed immediately returned 0, and link_duplex immediately returned -1)
Since the switch and the OS are set to autonegotiate, the interface falls back to 100 Mbit.
Current /dev/bge0 link_speed: 1000 Current /dev/bge0 link_duplex: 1 Sleeping 10 seconds... New /dev/bge0 link_speed: 100 New /dev/bge0 link_duplex: 1
Although the inability of the JumpStart client to reach the specified DNS server was the main cause of the problems, forcing the bge interface to 100 Mbit may also have improved the build speed.

Flashmob at Sydney Apple Store tells customers and staff to 'Wake Up'
Samsung and a marketing team working on its behalf were reportly behind a flashmob protest at an Apple Store in Australia. The flashmob took place outside the Apple Store in Sydney; a bus full of protestors all dressed in black left the bus and lined up outside the store's window. They then produced signs that they held up against the windows with the words 'Wake Up' emblazoned across them. The flashmob then chanted 'Wake Up' through the window at Apple's staff and customers.
An Australian blogger just happened to be in the Sydney Apple Store at the time of the flashmob's appearance and managed to capture it on video. Maybe a coincidence or maybe not, who knows but he certainly seemed to capture the action from all angles. This is not the first time that Samsung has targeted Apple's customers with its strange marketing tactics. We have already seen a few adverts which blatantly make fun of iPhone users.
Samsung looks like it will be announcing its latest Galaxy S III Android phone in the next few days. This sort of marketing is its attempt at creating some buzz for the launch, but also at hitting Apple in an area where it may really hurt -- the perception that Apple is "cool". It's a risky gamble. Some Apple or would-be Apple users might have second thoughts and consider Samsung. Others might just think Samsung are a collective bunch of jackasses and want nothing to do with their brand.
Samsung initially became the largest Android manufacturer in the world largely by making products as close to Apple's as possible without being made by Apple. If you wanted Apple but either couldn't get it, or were adverse to getting it, Samsung positioned themselves to be there for you. They brilliantly rode the wave of general smartphone awareness and preconceptions Apple established in the modern market.
Now Samsung has become bolder and are striking out with different devices like the Galaxy Note line, and are trying to distance themselves from Apple, aggressively, with their new marketing.
It's more interesting, more exciting, and more offensive. It's also likely transitional. After "we're just like Apple" and "don't be like Apple", the next phase has to be "we're Samsung" and that will be the one to really watch.
UPDATE: Samsung has denied that they were involved with the flashmob... Anyone taking bets on who else would want to do this? Maybe Greenpeace? They've had protests at an Apple store in London following on their iCloud report; maybe this campaign in Australia is a part of the same movement.

Flashmob at Sydney Apple Store tells customers and staff to 'Wake Up'
What's even dumber is that the whole "Samsung is behind it" was just someone starting a rumor.
I think this is just classless. I'm a huge Samsung fan [love their TVs, phones, tablets are ok, and want their washing machine; lol] but this is ridiculous!
The best thing to do is just ignore it and give it zero attention: meaning stop writing about it.
78% of phones activated last quarter were iPhones across ALL carriers. Good luck with your math class.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but Apple and Samsung compete worldwide, not just in the US. This is all over the news, sorry if you missed it.
You guys want numbers? Samsung sold 44.5M smartphones in the first quarter, while Apple sold 31M. 5,05 trillion revenue, a 81% increase over first quarter last year. Apple is still more lucrative, at our expense, of course.
It is not that Samsung does not release numbers, you guys seem to be a little resistant to look them up.
I admit that Samsung sold more phones but here is the thing and many people would agree with me on this.
I'm a iPhone user since 3 years ago, there is so many phone brands out there right now that every month we saw like 3 o more phones coming out so the thing is that if a get a cool smartphone today its just a matter of 1 month to a new phone come out so now we want to get that one and after that one we want the next one and so on, but with iPhone we got one each year and with all the features that a iPhone has is enough for many of us, that without saying about their apps like apple said " there is a app for anything " and they are so damn right about that. so i love all kind of smartphones but there are so many out there that i prefer to stay with the iPhone until they new one come out. they are even collectibles i got from the 1st iPhone to the 4s. I'm sorry if i made my comment to large i just want to said what i tough
Easy to sell phones when most of them are under 50 bucks. Quantity over quality has to be Samsungs motto.
The report I saw said 78% for AT&T, not all carriers.
Again, Samsung 44M units sold against Apple's 31M units sold, 5.05 trillion revenue.
The numbers are out there and yes, Samsung does releases them. It is not their fault if those numbers are not in iMore, or in the Cult of Mac. Broaden your horizons people.
Want a tip, google "Samsung beats Apple smartphone sales".
So how many phone models has Samsung had to produce, and with how many carriers, to get that number? Furthermore, but slightly unrelated, Android is a fragmented piece of garbage. Even Google is ready to give up on it.
Samsung sells more smart phones than apple period. It don't matter that apple has one phone and Samsung sells more smartphone models. Bottom line is Samsung makes less of each phone but makes up for it in numbers of models sold. While apple charges a 3x premium of each phone. Last I saw it cost a little under $230 to make a iPhone and they charge either you or the carrier $650- 800.
Haha.. Samsung Fanboys are so cute..
i agree. i think its not tasteful at all. i love my samsung TV, Fridge and Range. But i love my iMac, Iphone, Ipad, Apple TV as well. seeing this stuff just pisses me off. come up with some original new advertising all on your own. dont slam apple because you cant think outside the box!
I have no doubt that Samsung had something to do with this. But honestly there are no samsung logos, no mention of saying or there products. So the Sammy bashing is really uncalled for.
To be honest I think it's great. I like the tactic, aggressive competition I'm all for it.
(for the record I own a lot of apple products by in no way am I a fanboi, I actually hate apple as a company just like there products)
First off, the isheep take is old and tired. Just like that great Motorola commercial with everyone wearing the white headphones and hoodies. Yep, that sure was impactful as the Xoom sold tens and tens of units. And those Samsung ads......even more brilliant!
And, it doesn't piss us off. It just looks stupid and it makes us laugh, just like that kid in school yelling, "hey, look at me.". Uh, OK dork!
Imagine your at an Apple Store. You are purchasing a $2000 Macbook Pro or an iPad. A flashmob from a competing company which you have spent thousands on their products as well makes a very uncomfortable scene at the exit of the store you are at tells you to WAKE UP with signs and screaming. This silliness clears, you go home, turn on your Samsung TV and see a commercial poking fun of you for the brand decision of the phone you chose in numerous ads. Samsung marketing needs to remember they have other products that DON'T compete with Apple, keep pissing on me and I will go out of my way to avoid the Samsung brand. Fanboy or not....after a while it begins getting insulting.
Apple Fanboys , stop gettin your panties bunched up. Its a fun attempt to get some publicity, which they succeeded with.
Had Apple done something like this,all of you fanboys wouldve enjoyed and agreed with it ;)
And by using the term "fanboy" you've just identified yourself as one whose opinion on this matter is irrelevant. You're stuck in the 90's with that nonsense.
I dont think your opinion is any more relevant than mine just cause youre a fanboy and Im not.
Its a fact that FANBOYS around here always crucify the competition and they would cheer if they same act that they frown upon was carried by Apple ;)
I never thought using a word can direct you 12 years back, but what do I know. Last I checked people still use the word fanboy. Whether its here , or in other smart phone forums, or even in the gaming websites like IGN. Get with the program grandpa ;)
In my household we have 3 iPhone 4s, 1 iPhone 4, 3 Apple TVs, one iMac and two MacPros. But I also have other products from other competitiors.
Its utter BS that my comments now have to be moderated if I dont agree with KoolAid drinkers.
I speak my mind, I love Apple for many things they do and proud owner of their products. But I dont blindly cheer for them and boo the competition anytime I get the chance to like some people do around here.
I stand by my comment that had Apple pulled something like this, many of Apple fans wouldve cheered and would think it was cool.
try being less of a troll ?
Exactly how did I qualify for the title "TROLL" ? :)
Look in the mirror, jerk wad.
Well you're real mature. :roll:
I share my opinion (both poistive & negative) on iMore. If you classify a person as troll just cause they dont drool over everything Apple and dont sugarcoat it all, then ok Im a troll .
Come up with an actual reason why you think Im a troll instead of being rude. ;) Until then just zip it ! :twisted:
OK, you are both rude AND a jerk wad.
Can we now move on please?
Act like an adult? Nice name, guitar hero.
Again, look in the mirror before you spew - you are not very bright.
Can we NOW move on, or are you gonna act like a 5th grader and try and get the last word?
Guess if we're gonna pick on screen names, Yngwie has his guitar hero as his screen name and Dixie, you have your hobby as your screen name ;) :lol:
And youre officially out of the closet :)
And a whole lot longer than you, SFB.
just embarrassing and cringe worthy. The only people this will appeal to are the die hard android fans and to be honest I'm embarrassed for people who think this is a good move.
These ads are actually insulting.
I've watched this video two times, There are NO Samsung logos or anything related to Samsung whatsoever. Am I missing something here? that everyone else seeing? I doubt Samsung would ever organize a la OWS protest against Apple, Their commercial ads are pretty funny but I don't think it will go beyond that, Samsung is one of the major parts suppliers for iOS devices And in this video, these guys and girls aren't promoting anything related to Samsung they're just yelling "wake up" It'd be also safe to assume they may be Blackberry fans? or Nokia? No?
fanboyism towards an electronic device, (a cell phone in particular) is in itself an incredibly idiotic thing. I have an ipad 3rd gen and GSII LTE also considering trying a windows phone (Nokia lumia in particular) I will pick up and use whatever platform I'll find the most usable and best for my needs at this particular moment. such fanboyism would probably be excusable for a teen. not for an adult definitely.
Exactly I just think its ridiculous to get so upset just cause someone doesn't like the phone you use...guess what people everyone is different and therefore not everyone will like the same things.just like with cars,movies,music etc people like different phones so there's no need to attack someone for.having a.different taste.
Samsung has an interesting marketing strategy, which is to ridicule its competitors customers. Insulting customers is not a great way to get them to buy your product. If it works, then Apple may loose a user, but they aren't going to buy Samsung, they're going to buy another Android device or winphone7
Samsung is the one that really needs a wake up call here. First they blatently copy a competitor's product, now they're coming out with non-sensical maxi phones like the note, where even Samsung can't decide if it's a phone or a tablet. It certainly isn't a mobile phone @ that size. More like a small clipboard that requires 2 free hands to use. Then there is their continuing, assault potential consumers campaigns. These guerrilla marketing tactics would be understandable if done by a small player desperate for attention like microsoft or RIM, but is just distasteful from the likes of Samsung, especially
Cheers !
Y'all wake up, now...
Samsung is getting desperate, plain and simple. It is completely classless! Shows that Samsung is a Korean firm and not a Japanese firm. The Japanese would view this as classless act without honor, but it appears the Korean's are without class and honor. So ultimately Samsung will pay a price for this and actually boost Apple sales. Stupid Korean's.
A fitting statement considering the current legal battles going on...
What company is doing the trashing? As far as I can tell the only way we think it's Sammy is because the article says so. There no Sammy logos or references in the video, nobody chants Samsung.
This is now 2 cites stating that it's Samsung behind this with no proof.
I watched the video yesterday and today and all I can say is. Genius.
Am I the only one that finds it humorous that Samsung's way to get across to the "brainwashed" Apple masses is by sending a group of people wearing the same thing chanting the same message?
I don't mind being told another product is superior to the one I own. It may very well be, I won't debate it since it's really a matter of opinion. But if you're trying to sell me on your product, don't insinuate that I'm some kind of mindless follower because I chose a competitor's device. Insulting me is no way to win my business.
I've owned Palm OS, WinMo6.1, WebOS, and Android (Galaxy S) devices.. I chose to buy an iPhone 4S because I LIKE it. I enjoy using it. It does everything I want it to and I have no problems with it whatsoever. If Samsung thinks that makes me an idiot, then I'm glad I don't buy their products.
I admit that Samsung sold more phones but here is the thing and many people would agree with me on this. I'm a iPhone user since 3 years ago, there is so many phone brands out there right now that every month we saw like 3 o more phones coming out so the thing is that if a get a cool smartphone today its just a matter of 1 month to a new phone come out so now we want to get that one and after that one we want the next one and so on, but with iPhone we got one each year and with all the features that a iPhone has is enough for many of us, that without saying about their apps like apple said " there is a app for anything " and they are so damn right about that. so i love all kind of smartphones but there are so many out there that i prefer to stay with the iPhone until they new one come out. they are even collectibles i got from the 1st iPhone to the 4s. I'm sorry if i made my comment to large i just want to said what i tough
I'm not sure, maybe it could be Nokia after their smartphone beta test campaign.
most of you iDiots that had no doubt it was Samsung were obviously wrong.
Sorry to be negative but it's not a very fine job of reporting if you couldn't find out why the mob was there. Demonstrators congregate for a reason and it would have been a much more useful article if you had found out what the reason was. Anyway, I think it was BlackBerry/RIM behind it. Sort of fits in with the Be Bold campaign, and all-in-black is a not-too-subtle clue.
I savor, lead to I discovered exactly what I used to be looking for. You've ended my 4 day lengthy hunt! God Bless you man. Have a nice day. Bye
Hi, Neat post. There is a problem together with your site in web explorer, would test this? IE still is the market leader and a good section of folks will omit your fantastic writing because of this problem.

CRESTVIEW — The Salvation Army will fill one gap in the city's soup kitchen calendar that area churches otherwise cover. The Crestview City Council unanimously approved the organization's plan to bring a mobile canteen to town to serve weekly Sunday dinners to the homeless.
For several years, local churches have operated a rotating soup kitchen schedule, offering hot lunches and — when cold weather shelters open — evening dinners, six days a week. After Salvation Army Lt. Chris Welch addressed the council at its Oct. 22 meeting, the seventh day was included in the schedule.
The organization and the local Sharing and Caring food bank provide the weekly service out of a "mobile feeding unit," or canteen, Welch said. All the Salvation Army needed was a place to park the vehicle when it serves Sunday dinner.
A new downtown parking lot under construction on Wilson Street would be a prime location when the lot is ready in about 60 days, City Clerk Betsy Roy said. However, in the interim, the City Hall parking lot adjacent to the railway tracks is not a viable alternative, she said.
"Right now, as we know, our parking lot is not our parking lot," Roy said. "It's owned by CSX."
Councilwoman Robyn Helt suggested using Old Spanish Trail Park's canteen park until the new downtown lot is ready, but Roy said the park is heavily booked with activities that might disrupt having a consistent location for the canteen.
Public Works Assistant Director Carlos Jones asked whether the parking area in front of the Twin Hills Park children's playground would work. Helt suggested asking CSX railroad if it'd allow the canteen to use the City Hall south lot until the new parking lot is ready.
"We want a location that's accessible to the homeless," Councilman Charles Baugh Jr. said. "They may not have transportation to get to the parks."
Then city planner Eric Davis had a brainstorm.
"Why not right in front of City Hall?" he said. "We own everything on the front of Wilson Street and on Sunday, City Hall's closed so there won't be anyone using the lot."
Council members favored the suggestion, and after ascertaining that the Salvation Army could readily add the city of Crestview to its liability insurance, city leaders unanimously voted to allow the canteen to park in front of City Hall to serve on Sundays.
In other matters, the council:
• Unanimously approved the city's annual $11,000 contribution to the county Economic Development Council. EDC Vice President Kay Rasmussen said the council is working to help the city's industrial base diversify "so your community is not military-dependent."
• Viewed a presentation on the Tri-County Small Area Study by Celeste Werner of Matrix Design Group. The study resulted in recommendations for local community zoning changes, comprehensive plan revisions and the Eglin Air Force Base Joint Land Use Study to protect the base's missions from encroachment.
"The focus is to really make sure all of your citizens are protected for health, safety and welfare," Werner said.
Findings call for training route restrictions, approaches and departures of different Eglin reservation airfields, and "noise contours."
City planner Eric Davis, Crestview's representative for the study's advisory group, said members await the report's final drafts before zoning revisions can begin at the community level.
• Received a report from outgoing Sister City organization President Jim Mills on planned events for the visit of 36 guests of Crestview's sister city, Noirmoutier, France. The public may meet visitors and local hosts at a 5-6:30 p.m. reception Nov. 5 at the Crestview Public Library, Mills said.

Floor Polisher Parts
If you have wooden floors then it is mandatory that you invest in a good floor polisher. Though the wooden floors give the rooms a warm and golden tone, taking care of them can be tricky if you're not very careful. Wooden floors can be easily scratched, excess moisture and chemicals can damage the wood. Here we look at how to use a floor polisher on a wooden floor.
How to use Floor Polisher on Wooden Floors
•Clean the floor with a soft brushed broom or a vacuum cleaner before using the floor polisher.
•Ensure that the pad of the floor polisher is clean and sparkling. Buff the floor with the pad from one corner to another until the entire room is covered.
•You can either use a floor wax or make a all natural floor polish at home. In a double boiler heat 2 cups of mineral oil and 1 tbsp beeswax. Once they are melted drizzle the mixture evenly over the floor.
•Slide a new pad into the floor polisher. Slowly move the floor polisher from the back of the room to the front in gentle motions. The slow and gentle motion of the floor polisher over the polish will bring a glow and sparkle to the floor.
If you are planning to invest in a good floor polisher look no further than GoVacuum.com. Here we deal with only the top most brands such as Bissell, Bosch, Carpet, Dyson and so on. The floor polisher replacements such as pads, shower feed brush, roller brush are available with us. GoVacuum.com is a one stop for all your cleaning solutions.

Dust is the quickest means to leave your floors looking dreary and dull. Apart from dulling their shine, it also leaves scratches on its surface. It's best to vacuum dirtier floors than sweep them because sweeping only drags the dust across the floor while vacuuming picks them. Here is a parquet brush for your SEBO canister vacuums, a lightweight floor tool for effective cleaning. Its natural horse hair ensures that you don't deal with unsightly scratches on your floor. This is an ideal brush for delicate floors, one which guarantees gentle action on parquet or delicate floors.
Repair or replace that is the most common question on the minds of vacuum cleaner owners when they find that the vacuum cleaner they bought years ago no longer cleans efficiently. They also seek vacuum cleaner bags or accessories such as brushes, crevice tools, hoses, etc. At GoVacuum, we have listed vacuum cleaner parts and handy hints to help you find the best one for your vacuum cleaner and fix it yourself. Visit our blog and check our video reviews before you decide on a vacuum cleaning system for your home.

Sarah Classic Leather Pump 4 4
PERFECT!!!! I'm a size 6 and the 6's fit perfect! I ordered them in both black and nude and LOVE THEM!!! They're perfect for the office or a night out. Please make more colors BEBE!!!! February 26, 2013
Perfect pumps! I originally ordered these in a asize 8, my normal bebe size, but I actually wear a 7 1/2. The 8 was TOO big so i exchanged them for a size 7 and the 7 fit perfectly!! I originally ordered them in the nude but exchanged them for black. I will be ordering the nude ones very soon as they are so classic and a must in EVERY closet! The black look amaing with tights, leggings, jeans everything! The heel height is very high if your not used to wearing high heels. But these pumps are so sexy! Good job bebe February 21, 2013
really beautiful shoes I did not give 5 stars just because the fit is a little weird because the shoes are coming really low (close to the toes) the fit is very particular i had to buy something to place in the back of the shoe in order to keep it in my foot the other foot was big we all have one foot bigger then the other but in this style of shoes you feel it more. These shoes actually looks like all the celebrities are wearing right now( Kim K, Rihanna, etc) it`s been in Europe for the past 2 years and it`s starting to come now in Canada and the States. I got both colors they look so so sexy on the foot cause they are not delicate so for me its the best because I have thin legs and I do not like big platform shoes because when you wear those kind of shoes you only see the balky shoes makes it look weird compare to the rest of the leg. I took my regular size 6 for those. Looks sexy with a pencil skirt or any piece of clothing you have in your closet. hope to see other colors from Bebe soon!! February 19, 2013
LOVE I absolutely love these pumps! Especially the natural color. So classy and sexy! And perfect heel height. I only wish bebe would make more of this style. January 26, 2013

text: Google Translate is fantastic and ever developing service provided by Google. My staff sometimes finds things that are to say the least strange. This is one is a good sample; when you translate from English to Icelandic the "words" Lalalalala (five times) Google will translate it as Bjork, the famous Icelandic singer. Not sure where they pull this from (maybe some funny Icelanders contributing and having fun while they are at it), but being an Icelander I can say for sure Lalalalala does not translate Björk.

Too tight on tummy

When Tonya* came to KP Foster Care more than three years ago, she had suffered a significant loss in her biological family and was going through a lot of challenges. She initially refused treatment and rebelled against suggestions, schoolwork and support. She moved around in different therapeutic foster homes and then was placed temporarily with a family for what KidsPeace staff thought would be a week or so. Suddenly, however, Tonya she was "home"! Soon, Tonya began really excelling in school; in fact, she was elected secretary of the student council. Her cooperation skills with her treatment team have improved so significantly she is constantly meeting goals and progressing. Tonya also began taking better care of her body and started to demonstrate an outstanding sense of self-confidence. She has been able to participate in speeches at her school in front of the entire student body, she has advocated for her goals in the courtroom in front of a judge and she has even run her own treatment team meetings. Tonya enjoys her foster family tremendously. When asked what the key to success in this home versus others in which she has lived, she simply replied "love." She then said that, when she comes home from a long day, she feels comfortable and safe. She explained, " I don't have to worry because nothing is going to bother me here." She talked about her Treatment sisters, Sally* and Kathy* as role models in her life, Tonya stated that they inspire her to stay in shape, giving her fashion tips and helping her build positive relationships. She discussed her Treatment parents, Meg and Al, saying that they are great listeners, so respectful and helpful to her daily. Tonya said that, since moving, she no longer has the desire to run away and has found herself to be more patient and trustworthy. She added that, if she could give advice to other foster children, she would say, "Try to stay in one place and see how the family really is. If I never met them (her current Treatment family) I don't know what I would have done." Tonya's Treatment mother, Meg, added that she finds joy in seeing how comfortable and verbal she has become. A KidsPeace Program Manager asked Meg what gift Tonya brings to her family. Totally in line with what Tiffany answered, she immediately answered with the word: "love." Meg shared that she became a treatment foster parent to help more kids after raising her biological children. She proudly explained that now, "Tonya has become my daughter." Clearly, a change in placement brought them together, but love made them a "family."

Verizon rumored to be testing CDMA iPad
According to one of BRG's "highly placed" sources, Verizon Wireless is currently testing CDMA-compatible iPads. Their source even went one step further and mentioned LTE with another possible iPad model though that could not be confirmed.
So with all of the Verizon rumors flying around as of late it looks as if we will see both the iPad and iPhone in the hands of Big Red faithful sooner or later.
Is anyone out there regretting picking up a AT&T compatible iPad right about now?
Have something to say about this story? Leave a comment! Need help with something else? Ask in our forums!

Verizon rumored to be testing CDMA iPad
Apple products hold their value well.. if you don't like the AT&T choice just sell it on eBay and buy the Verizon model. Its never a bad investment to buy Apple.
I too am sick of all the Verizon and Sprint rumors though... if nothing new is announced next week there should be a law against these rumors... you know, take bloggers birthdays away.
TM... read my previous post. I doubt you will be out any $ if you just list it on eBay and buy the 2nd gen. If a person has to look forward to the next model then there is never a good time to buy because we all know these things will be upgraded every year just like the iphone and just like the Macs...
Then again I know a few guys that still have black and white TVs beacuse they are waiting for the right model to come along. Hmmm.. maybe 3D will be their time. ;)
With no voice and data, why would I want Verizon?
It's for a Verizon ipad. The fact that u cannot do voice and data is not relevant. There is no voice on an ipad anyway.......
I wish someone could actually confirm this as true. After AT&T's tiered data fiasco, I will NOT be buying an iPad (3G) until someone else has a data plan for it that is unlimited. I don't care about their data congestion issues and how this will help. Don't punish your customers for your bad network, use the insane amount of money we're being charged as iPhone customers to make it better.
I'm sure we all wish this were true, but a VZW executive denied this at the D conference.
Wi-fi is not "ubiquitous" in the Boston area most of the wi-fi is locked down tight. You need to go to a public library, or a friendly coffee shop, or maybe a restaurant like McDonald's.
Hi Paul,You're absolutely right about the coffee culture of Southern Louisiana. And the thought of the great food down there makes me salivate, too. Love your part of the country.Thanks for making some great points here. If Starbucks is all about "the experience", then a drive-thru doesn't cut it. If McDonald's wants to woo customers to its lattes, the quality and taste had better be there. No matter what the price points are. And, as you point out, consumers have many options in most marketplaces. As Starbucks fails to deliver on customer expectations, and other chains and independents try to capitalize on their vulnerability, it's going to be interesting to see what happens.Thanks for adding your thoughts to this conversation, Paul. I appreciate it.
I want to make ramen vending business. Please give some information about ramen vending machine.Where can I buy these? How much are they?
This is a super fun and creative idea. I think i would like you.

After serving 44 years as the Register of Deeds, Shirley Wallace has announced she will retire on Nov. 30.
"Shirley Wallace has been a remarkable public servant. She has served the citizens of Ashe for 44 years and made vast improvements to the services of the Register of Deeds Office," said Ashe County Manager Dr. Pat Mitchell.
"We all wish her well and thank her for her dedication. May she have a happy retirement," said Mitchell.
Wallace said she is retiring so she can spend more time with her son at home after her husband past away two years ago.
"I've been thinking about retiring for the past six months, and I think the time is right," said Wallace.
"I've been the Register of Deeds since 1977 when I filled in for Kyle Baldwin after his resignation," said Wallace.
In 1978, Wallace was officially elected to serve another term, and has been re-elected every election cycle since then, said Wallace.
"I would like to thank the people of Ashe County. Every time I was up for re-election, I was elected by a high margin," said Wallace.
"I have loved my job and loved serving the people of Ashe."
Deaett Roten, who has worked with Wallace for 20 years, will fill in as the register of deeds after Wallace leaves. Roten said she is scheduled to be sworn in on Dec. 3.
"She (Wallace) trained me and I hope to continue to run the office the like Shirley and build on what she's accomplished," said Roten.
