Ways to get involved in promoting the Victorious Gospel

Interesting. I see him as always offering salvation with both hands, even to Cain who is about to kill his brother.6And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? 7If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted?--Gen 4And over and over again to the Israelites. 31Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? 32For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.--Eze 18Why do men hate the thought of salvation?But King David got it right. He knew a good thing when he saw it. 6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.--Psa 23
I live through Christ. I believe as others that it is the simplicity of the Gospel. Jesus died that all will live. When we die/expire/quit breathing, our body returns to dust and our breath(spirit) returns to the one who gave it. That as far as I know means the person/soul has ceased to exsist on the earth as a living breathing creature, and the body will begin to return to dust, and the breath is with the Father/ the One who gave it.
Wow Taf, this is awesome. Great depths that God is leading us into here. It's so easy for us to become distracted by the natural events that we miss the spiritual principles that the natural events are displaying. I'll admit, seeing the spiritual principles connected to demons has never been a clear picture for me . . .until now . . .thank you for that bro!!Just as demons are an extension of satan . . .my thoughts are an extension of my mind . . . when Jesus shows he is (not just "has" but "is") the power that casts out demons, he's revealing that his presence in our hearts casts out the power of our carnal thoughts, thus, renewing our minds! Pigs are connected to uncleanness . . . of the worst kind even . . . when this legion . . .yeah, isn't it interesting that carnality always inflates itself? "Legion . . .for we are MANY . . ." is given permission to enter into the pigs . . .what a picture . . .carnality identifying, connection to, manifesting in unclean beasts . . .not just people ignorant of God's mercy, but religious whoremongers who become spiritual pimps with their followers . . . bound by the power of their own carnality, they paint themselves as white vessels but are nothing but hollow tombs of death, disease and destruction. And the fact that the pigs immediately ran off a cliff into the sea is a perfect picture of what happens when my mind is given over to it's own volitions. I will destroy myself in the carnality of this realm of death . . .the sea of humanity . . .it's the nature of the beast within us. Once those who oversaw the pigs saw what had happened . . .instead of celebration, they reacted in fear . . .and rejection. But the guy from whom these things were driven out from? The last thing mentioned of him was . . .he was FULLY CLOTHED, (righteousness) SEATED (Rest) and of A SOUND MIND!!!! How can that "not" be a spiritual principle of the identity of one's carnal, stinking, thinking mind?Awesome stuff man . . . I love it.

The proof of love is in the works. Where love exists, it works great things. But when it ceases to act, it ceases to exist. – Saint Gregory the Great
If we knew at what time we were to depart from this world, we would be able to select a season for pleasure and another for repentance. But God, who has promised pardon to every repentant sinner, has not promised us tomorrow. Therefore we must always dread the final day, which we can never foresee. This very day is a day of truce, a day for conversion. And yet we refuse to cry over the evil we have done! Not only do we not weep for the sins we have committed, we even add to them…. If we are, in fact, now occupied in good deeds, we should not attribute the strength with which we are doing them to ourselves. We must not count on ourselves, because even if we know what kind of person we are today, we do not know what we will be tomorrow. Nobody must rejoice in the security of their own good deeds. As long as we are still experiencing the uncertainties of this life, we do not know what end may follow…we must not trust in our own virtues. – Saint Gregory the Great, from

Sweaty blood. Dog spit in the winter.
Rich Malloy, Jon Hussey, Steve Pruitt, Brian Ferguson, John Arenas, Seth McConnell, and YouTube!

Drumming means to me:
Drumming was a way for me to establish my belief system. It taught me the value of work ethic, discipline, and self respect, resultantly. It's a hugely defining aspect of my life, and my absolute favorite thing to do. I could honestly say I wouldn't be the same without it!

$30 to subscribe for one year to all my Tips for Doulas posts! Checkout via paypal or use your credit card here:
This website was created the week I began my doula certification (April 2011) and quickly became filled with all my thoughts as I went through training - book reports, my experience with seeking out mentors, sharing my mentors' brilliant tips and insights, offering up my mistakes and successes to help others learn! It was a wonderful opportunity for me personally and professionally to chronicle the three years of my doula certification, then birth photographer training, becoming a midwife assistant and childbirth educator, and so much more! I've been blessed to attend over 80 births in the last few years - it's been humbling and enlightening.
As I began receiving increasing amounts of feedback and website visitors I realized I needed to go back and update and revise many of my posts. I was shocked to see I had created over 100 posts specifically under my category "Tips for Doulas!" Knowing it would take a lot of time to work my way through it, and hearing that the information I was providing was so valuable, I made the decision to do things a bit differently going forward. All the information is still here - ideas on everything from supporting a mom with an epidural, peanut ball use, photo tips for doulas, to suggestions on what to wear to births and thank you gift ideas for the medical care team. It's a LOT of information whether you are a new doula or an experienced doula wanting some fresh ideas on building your business. Instead of having everything lumped together in my main site (overwhelming for my clients searching for baby prep posts) I've separated out the doula/birth professional posts. They're now privately accessible with a log in and password and I'm offering all this great information in exchange for a small fee - that small fee to help cover my time and energy going forward as I revise and update and share fantastic new tips.
One of my PDFs ("Things to Consider") in the Forms section was also receiving a lot of traffic and many requests from doulas asking if they could use it. That file is being updated and will be available as part of my Tips for Doulas package!
As I work out the kinks in this pilot program I'm offering access for only $30 for this first year. By doing the annual sign up you can decide if the posts are something that will continue to benefit you on your doula journey or not - though I think and hope they will! Seriously, it's over 100 posts - you could read one a week and it would take you two years to get through all these tips. (Not to mention I will be adding more and more great info as I learn on my own journey.) However, if you decide to unsubscribe after your first year's fee then it's a simple click in your PayPal account for you to turn off the subscription option.
Curious if it's worth it? You can read some of the testimonials I've received on the posts so far. Here's just one of the sweet messages:
I just want to thank you for all the time and effort you have put into this site. I just recently decided to become a Doula myself and have been struggling to find helpful advice online. I found your site this morning and have been pouring over it all day long. You answered so many of the questions I have had and helped me think of new ones and I have already learned so much. Thank you again! I look forward to following your story and learning more. – Mandy
A few of my existing posts include:
Getting started.
Going paperless.
Setting your fee.
Marketing your business.
Finding clients.
Keeping track of client info.
Making client visits more efficient.
Doula bag supplies list.
Living life on call.
Tips for your first few births.
When to meet a client in labor.
Cesarean support tips.
Postpartum visit suggestions.
And so many more!
I'm excited for what's to come, and hope you'll join me on this journey!
*Some of my posts for doulas I will always keep public, as I feel the information is crucial for all of us to know when supporting moms. Those include my article on supporting clients with a history of trauma and everything related to postpartum depression.*
Once your payment through PayPal is completed please wait, as the page will take a few seconds to redirect you to this site to set up a log-in and password. The subscriber log-in page is also to the right under "For Doulas" or you can click here. Once you've logged in then anytime you come back to this page you'll be able to see the Tips for Doula posts.

When 23-year-old Englishman Dave Gill rolled into Navasota on his bike, he didn't know what to expect.
After a quick meeting with the mayor, the man who's on an 11,000 mile journey across the North American continent began his conversations with a few of the town's most colorful folks.
"After reading things like Into The Wild and On The Road, there's something about traveling through America that has become really appealing to me," said Gill.
The reason for Gill's incredible trek?
"Just a desire to have an adventure," said Gill.
Starting in New York back in November, Gill has made his way down the east coast, to Florida and is now on his way to San Diego. After that, it's north to Alaska where he'll head back east to New York. It's a tough journey but an adventure for Gill who was looking to accomplish something he could look back on forever.
"There's a physical element to the project definitely and there's also more of a look into the culture of North America. Which is why we're on a ranch in Texas," said Gill with a laugh.
And on this day, Dave got to do something he's been wanting to try since he started his journey.
"I've never shot a gun in my life so I'm really excited. I actually think it'll be good," said Gill.
Thanks to the help of Navasota resident Steve Stribling, Dave got a chance to practice his marksmanship.
"It's a big part of American culture, especially at the moment with everything going on so I've been interested to fire a gun since the start." What's it like now that you've done it? "It's quality. It's really fun," said Gill.
Dave even got his first taste of Texas barbecue and in a true gesture of Texas friendship, Dave joined in prayer to help keep him safe during his life altering journey.
"I've never really had somebody pray for me before. That was unique. It's still settling in really," said Gill.
And Dave will have plenty of time to let it set in as his journey west rolls on.
"I'm getting a good vibe from Texas," said Gill.
Now you can keep up with Dave and his journey on his web page and Facebook page. Each day, Dave posts pictures and videos of his journey to keep his family and anyone else interested up to date on his voyage.
We've got a link to both of those sites below.

|Head Softball Coach
|8th Season
|Alma Mater:
|Bridgewater State University, 2004
Natalia Ardagna enters her eighth season with the Beacons in 2015, and has set a new standard for winning since taking over as head coach.
Building the program from the ground up, Ardagna has made UMass Boston a consistent winner and participant in the Little East Conference tournament. This past season, Ardagna became the first coach in program history to earn 100 career victories as a Beacon and comes into the year with 107 victories in Beacons Blue.
The 2014 season saw the Beacons compete for a playoff spot until the final day of the regular season despite fielding one of the youngest rosters in New England. UMass Boston proved to be competitive in almost every game, and the year saw the team earn their first-ever win over a nationally-ranked team-when they defeated #25 Wheaton College 7-5 on April 1.
In 2013, Ardagna recorded her 100th career victory as a head coach and helped guide the Beacons to their third-consecutive Little East Conference Tournament appearance. The Beacons posted a new program-record for players on the All-Conference team, as five position players were honored, including First Teamer Sue Killilea.
UMass Boston finished the 2012 season with their second consecutive postseason berth despite having to replace two-thirds of the team's pitching staff.
In 2011, she proved that the Beacons continued success was no fluke as she set a new-single season record with 24 wins. It was also in that season, that she led UMass to their first Little East Conference tournament appearance and first postseason win.
The 2010 season truly marked a new chapter in the program's history as Ardagna's Beacons set new school records in almost every offensive category including, runs, hits, batting average, total bases, RBI, and slugging percentage. She also coached the conference Rookie of the Year in Killilea, who to-date stands as the only three-time NFCA All-Region honoree (2011 & 2012) in school history.
Wasting no time after arriving on the Harbor Campus, Ardagna's first team set a school record for hits, as well as setting a new mark for league wins which she has continued to surpass every season she is in the dugout.
Her credentials as a Head Coach are outstanding. Prior to her arrival at UMass Boston, the former catcher spent the three seasons on the Simmons College Softball coaching staff, where she helped the Sharks to three straight playoff appearances, including her final season as the team's Head Coach, which yielded the most victories in school history with 19.
Prior to her coaching career, Ardagna was an outstanding four-year player at Bridgewater State University (MA), where she helped the Bears put together an impressive 104-64-2 record for a 61.8% winning mark, including four straight Massachusetts State College Athletic Conference (MASCAC) titles and three trips to the NCAA Regionals.
While at Bridgewater State, Ardagna earned multiple MASCAC Player of the Week accolades and was named Second Team All-Conference after leading the MASCAC in batting average and runs batted in during her senior season. A native of Revere, she graduated from Bridgewater State in 2004 with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice and a minor in sociology.

Bi-Lo wants to ease some of the pain at the pump.
With gasoline prices climbing nationally nearly 47 cents over the past month to a four-month high of $3.76 a gallon of regular on average and jumping 35 cents locally to $3.60, the Mauldin-based supermarket chain is adding more grocery items as part of its gas-rewards program called fuelperks!
The expanded program includes hundreds of additional grocery items that will help the food store chain's BonusCard customers rack up from 5 to 50 cents per gallon per item.
The rewards program works like this: For every $50 in qualified purchases shoppers spend at Bi-Lo, they receive a 5-cents-per-gallon reward applied to their BonusCard that can be used at the pump to reduce the price of gas.
With the expanded benefits, if the customer, within their $50 total, also purchased two bonus rewards items worth 5 cents and two bonus rewards items at 10 cents per gallon, then the potential fuelperks! rewards could equal 35 cents — not 5 cents — per gallon off their next fuel purchase at participating gas stations.
The rewards must be redeemed within three months after the current month and are good for up to 20 gallons of gasoline. Bonus items and their cents-per-gallon value will vary each week, and each offer may contain limitations. Bonus points and balances show up on receipts. The list of bonus items and their rewards value can be found in stores with circular and online at www.bi-lo.com/promotions.
Coming soon
A new restaurant is headed to Charleston's upper peninsula.
Palmetto Commercial Properties reports that HNV Morrison LLC has leased a 5,412-square-foot space at 1081 Morrison Drive for restaurant/retail use. The tenants are not ready to disclose the restaurant name, according to Richard Morse of Palmetto Commercial.
Surf's down
Rogue Wave surf shop at 69 Spring St. will close March 31, but it's not going away completely.
Owner Rhett Boyd intends to continue making custom surfboards and surf-related clothing for sale online and in pop-up shops and other vendors in Charleston as well as on the East and West coasts through his rebranded Rogue Wave Surf and Supply.
Look for his wares at One Love Designs at 478 King St. starting March 1. In the meantime, most of the items in the existing shop are half price until it closes.
Shaping up
North Charleston has a new fitness site. Barefoot Yoga Studio is now open at 1050 E. Montague Ave., Suite B. The 1,200-square-foot space is owned by Masie Barefoot-Judson, offers two classrooms and is open seven days a week. Check barefootyogastudio.com for class schedules.
Newly discovered
Children's Discovery Center, a new childcare and education provider, will hold a groundbreaking ceremony from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. today at 1110 Venning Road in Mount Pleasant. It's the center's first South Carolina location. It has several others in Ohio.

Let's just suppose for a moment that the Greek debt crisis can somehow be resolved without a disorderly default or the collapse of the Euro. As I have written previously, I very much doubt that it can, and today's news gives little cause for hope. Although the leaders of both of Greece's major parties agreed this morning to the latest round of austerity measures, the EU powers have backed away from ratifying the deal, demanding a further 325 million Euros in budget cuts. The Greeks now know how the Turks must feel, constantly on the cusp of a final agreement with the EU, but never quite getting to the finish line. This latest wrinkle will no doubt be ironed out within days, if not hours. It requires a much greater leap of faith, however, to believe that this will resolve the crisis once and for all. But suppose it does. What then? [click to continue…]

"I used this card as a New Year's card. The design professional adjusted the writing ever to slightly to fully enhance the details of my photo. Many compliments from friends on completed card, nice stock, quality coloring."
"To be honest I went as cheap as I could with the personalization, and it - per usual with TinyPrints - came out looking great!!"
"I loved the card it was very well done, but I think tiny prints should disclose that the postage needed for this card is .70 cents. I was not very happy when I got cards returned for postage due."
"Absolutely love this card! The design looks so beautiful with the picture we planned to use (a wedding photo). It has a very elegant vibe with the bubbles! The quality is amazing. I used red letters (because our picture was mainly white and gray), square, and signature matte (not flimsy)! Couldn't have asked for a better Christmas card this year. My only issue was that I ordered the 5x5 square, which I didn't realize has extra postage! I would recommend the 5x7 to avoid additional costs for stamps."
"Wonderful Christmas card, great colors and lettering choices. Site was fairly easy to use tho the checkout was confusing at the end. Reproduction of my photo was excellent. The cropping / zoom function made it easy to fine tune my photo for best result. Cards look very professional, not hokey or homemade. Very good quality paper for the cards, nice plain envelopes. Order came exceptionally quickly, much appreciated. Cute and funny, great graphics, just what I wanted. [of course my adorable pug's photo was the clincher.] thx lizzy d"

About to upgrade both my iPhone and iPad, and then jailbreak! Wish me luck!
How to jailbreak iOS 5.1.1 on your iPhone 4S, new iPad, and more with Greenpois0n Absinthe
If you've been waiting for a iOS 5.1.1 jailbreak you're in luck. Greepois0n Absinthe 2.0 was just released and you can now enjoy an untethered jailbreak on your iPhone 4S, new iPad, and several other iOS devices. If you've never used Greenpois0n before, that's okay. Hit the jump for a walkthrough!
Back up your data
Before running any jailbreak tool you should always back up your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch just in case something goes wrong. So make sure you have either a recent iCloud backup or iTunes backup before proceeding to the actual jailbreak process. If you aren't sure how to perform a backup, you can check out our guides:
Update to iOS 5.1.1
You can either update your software via an OTA software update or via iTunes if you haven't already updated to iOS 5.1.1.
- How to update your iOS software over the air (requires iOS 5 or higher)
- How to update your iOS software via iTunes
Jailbreak your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
- First download Greenpois0n Absinthe
2.02.0.1 to your computer from our downloads section. It is available for Mac, PC, and Linux.
- Next, install the program and open Absinthe with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch plugged into your computer.
- Click the Jailbreak button to begin the process.
- This process may take a while to complete so you'll have to be a little patient. Mine took about 6 minutes total. Your device may say Restore in Progress, that's okay.
- When you see the message Done, enjoy! on your computer you can go ahead and unplug your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
- You're done! Cydia will be on your Home screen and you're good to go!
If you've never jailbroken before, this is a super easy tool to start with. If you have jailbroken before, you'll appreciate how easy this one is compared to previous tools. If you do happen to run into problems or need help, check out our jailbreak help and discussion forums via the link below.

How to jailbreak iOS 5.1.1 on your iPhone 4S, new iPad, and more with Greenpois0n Absinthe
hi, after new jailbreak with Absinthe 2.0, i keep getting http/1.1 500 Internal Server Error.
Do i need to d/l Absinthe 2.0.1 instead , if so how?
re: "This is stupid-proof jailbreak, even a 4yr old kid can do it"
It's great that this worked for you but the above is fairly insulting to those that are having problems. I've tried multiple times and the progress bar just hangs or outright fails.
The ReadMe file says to (backup and then) completely reset the device (not just if you're having problems, but as a matter of course), jailbreak, then restore from backup so that the jailbreak doesn't take so long.
I let mine run for several hours, woke up, and saw that it failed.
Again, good for you that it worked for you, but it's not working for everyone.
Yep I'm having the same problem. I've tried multiple times. I start the jailbreak, the progress bar gets to almost halfway, then it hangs and says "error, windows will shut down the program". I shut it down, and restart the process, it says "u had an install problem, we'll retry" it does that, then hangs and shuts down again.
Any known fixes?
Jailbreak my ipod 4, works just fine BIG THANKS to the JAILBREAK team
Woohoo!! just jailbroke my iPad 3... However I did run in to a little issue at the end. It went through the process fine, until the very end I got an error message saying: "could not connect to downald (maybe they meant download?!?) abort!"
But Cydia still managed to install! so all is good. :-)
Props to the JB Dream Team!
Holy hell. 20 minutes?!
Ally said that hers took 6 minutes so, if mine doesn't show any additional progress about about 5 minutes, I assume it failed.
(Of course, the first time, it actually did fail after several hours.)
This is why some are scared $#!+less of jailbreaks n whatnot. They're afraid that it won't be as simple as some say and that something will go horribly wrong.
It's not been horrible yet, but my confidence isn't peaking, at the moment.
I think that was my first jailbreak.
Jailbreakme.com was the shiz. Without that, I'm not sure I'd have taken the initial plunge. Without that, I'm not sure I'd have been happy with my original iPad.
There were/are too many data network restrictions n whatnot. If I want to download a podcast bigger than 20MB (the restriction at the time), I didn't want to be barred from doing so until I got to a wifi hotspot or came home.
Now it's up to 50MB but there are apps bigger than that. HAVING to use wifi for such things is a real pain.
Having the option to share one's internet connection can be a virtual life-saver.
If it weren't for those types of limitations, I'd have stayed "pure" for the duration.
Did you back-up your device before attempting the jailbreak? I hope so.
I'd suggest resetting the device, attempting the jailbreak, again (if you're so inclined) and then restoring from that back-up.
If you did not back it up, I hope someone had set up automatic syncing for you because for some stuff, if it's not backed up, you can't get it back.
@west...i did everythin'....this happened just after i opened cydia...i guess it crashed....no default icons...the camera was accessible from the lock screen n the photos thru camera but they r not on the homescreen...nothing on homescreen....n now somehow its in recovery mode...m unable to get out of it...not able to go in dfu mode...tried everything.....i'd appreciate any help.....thanx for the reply btw.....shud i download custom ipsw or restore n update it thru itunes? :((
I have the iphone 4 with 5.1.1 os and i had it semi-tethered. Tried to do the jailbreak but didnt work because it was jail broken already. I did a restore and unjailbroke my phone. Tried the jailbreak again and the computer crashed, program froze, phone restarted deleted all information, and now when i plug my iphone in itunes tells me that the device cannot be connected and gives me this error message (0xE8000012) any advice?
Have the same problem here but with ipad 3, I've jailbroken my ipad 3 GSM and I get this itunes error. I just found thin thread http://www.idroidproject.org/forum/index.php?topic=147.15 and at he end of second page it says someone has finally solved but haven't tried it yet. Also i'm not sure if it's doing to help since is a 2010 thread.
Have you had any luck? if so please get bak and let me know. don't know if I should try what the thread says because it involves getting a new error for what I understand
Mine played but it often played the wrong songs. It would even say it was one song when it was another.
I use iTunes Match so I deleted and then reloaded my songs. It seems to be working fine now.
I suspect is is why the ReadMe file told us to delete/reset everything before starting the jb.
I have an iPhone 4 and when i download the absinthe software and try to jailbreak it just says please connect iOS device and doesn't recognize that the iPhone is plugged in. I am running 10.7.4 and i even tried starting the phone in DFU mode and it still doesn't recognize the device as being plugged in. I tried 2.0 and 2.0.1 I also have an older mac running 10.5.8 and when I tried it on there absinthe says that the device is not supported but it does recognize that it's connected but either way no way to jailbreak my iPhone 4 so Im not sure what to do, any suggestions?
I've been trying off and on to jailbreak all weekend. Using an iphone 4s, on Rogers in Canada (but fully unlocked) and windows 7 - I've downloaded the absinthe 3 times, am on 2.02 now and 1/2 way through while it says "sending initial jailbreak data. This may also take a while" - it always stops and I get a windows error saying absinthe.exe has stopped working. ANY IDEAS MOST WELCOME??
Hey guys, I've just got a simple question, but I just would like it confirmed by a few people..
After jailbreaking on iOS 5.1.1, let's say Apple releases iOS 6 a few months later (I'm just using it as an example), could I update through iTunes and not have my device wipeout/crash? I know I will lose my jailbreak...
Is 5.1 is better to jailbreak or i should remain on 5.0 ?
Which one is better ?
Via my examination, shopping for consumer electronics online can for sure be expensive, yet there are some how-to's that you can use to obtain the best products. There are generally ways to come across discount bargains that could make one to buy the best consumer electronics products at the cheapest prices. Interesting blog post.
Took me a while at first. Windows kept saying program stopped working. I deleted all data and reset settings (settings -> general -> reset) and it worked like a charm. Just make sure you back up your phone 1st if you care about your data!
Also, maybe stupid question, but does this tool unlock also, or do I need to use ultrasn0w or something similar?
Hi I'm not sure if anyone else is having the same problem.. But with this jailbreak I'm unable to delete apps. My screen freezes as the apps are wiggling and I have to do a hard reset. I usually get stuck on the apple screenso I have to hold the volume up button. Anyway does anyone know the source of this problem? Thanks
In this great scheme of things you secure an A+ for hard work. Where exactly you actually lost us was first on all the particulars. You know, as the maxim goes, the devil is in the details... And it couldn't be more true at this point. Having said that, permit me tell you just what did deliver the results. The text is definitely really convincing which is most likely the reason why I am taking an effort in order to comment. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Secondly, even though I can certainly see a leaps in reasoning you make, I am not necessarily confident of exactly how you appear to connect the ideas which inturn produce the actual conclusion. For the moment I shall yield to your point however trust in the future you actually connect your dots much better.
Hello There. I found your weblog using msn. That is a really well written article. I'll be sure to bookmark it and come back to read extra of your useful info. Thank you for the post. I'll certainly return.
I am new at this so please bear with me I can not get the 4.3.3 IPSW to download I only get a .zip file. Please help thanks
Hi my loved one! I wish to say that this article is awesome, nice written and include almost all significant infos. I would like to peer extra posts like this .
Hi there, I discovered your site by means of Google whilst looking for a similar matter, your web site came up, it appears to be like great. I've bookmarked to favourites|added to bookmarks.
I'm having the same issue on my MacBook Pro. I'm new to iMore from CrackBerry so if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.
**Update: The read me file states that the highest Mac OS it supports is 10.7, I'm running 10.8 so I'm sure that's the problem.
How is Absinthe better than using Apple Unlocker? It seems easy but some people are having problems. Would it be better to use Apple Unlocker to jailbreak and unlock the iPhone/iPad?

Cajun, jazz, ska, folk, punk and pop-rock … another week on Central Oregon's music scene. Here's what's in today's paper!
— One of the world's best-known Cajun and zydeco bands, BeauSoleil, returns to Bend this weekend for a show at the Tower Theatre. My colleague David Jasper spoke to founder Michael Doucet about his vision for the band as an act of historic preservation.
— Local good-times band Necktie Killer has its first album recorded, mixed and mastered. Now they need some cash to help turn that work into a bunch of CDs. Tonight, they'll play a show at their warehouse practice space in Bend to raise money for exactly that, and everyone who pays to get in will get a copy. I chatted with the guys about all of the above and more.
— The popular Jazz at the Oxford series ends this weekend with a visit from jazz/funk/rock fusionist Tom Scott & California Express. I rounded up some fun facts about Scott, whose long career has taken him to a bunch of interesting places and put him alongside a bunch of interesting people. Like Pat Sajak!
Elsewhere in this week's music section: eclectic folk-rocker Tom Russell returns to the Sisters Folk Festival's Winter Concert Series, Solwave comes to the Astro Lounge, a gang of punk and metal bands will gather at the Domino Room Saturday for what this blog will call Eff Winter Fest, local folk singer Mike Biggers plays twice in Bend this weekend, Fruition and The Giraffe Dodgers team up at Liquid Lounge, The Henhouse Prowlers bring bluegrass to GoodLife Brewing, Dead Winter Carpenters visit McMenamins and more.

Not surprising since they just list Hernandez for a while. Brady was lost without him. Not sure if Winslow can fill those shoes.
New England. Where over the hill players go for a last gasp.
Why do the patriots need 10 TE's to win?
Andrew Luck VS New England
0-4 with 6 TD's and 10 picks. Not sure "Suck for Luck" helps in our division. Maybe we stop the "meaningless wins" talk.
Prob not a bad signing. His knees will go just as Hernandez's ankle is healed. They really need two catching TE's so not a bad short term band-aid.
Getting playmakers for a quarterback, what a concept.
The Pats are smart, they bring in playmakers even if they already have 4 or 5. They have 4 very capable vets at the TE position, and they still bring in Winslow. What does it hurt, if he sucks cut him. The more options the better, something Miami is reluctant to do, and stick with the same young guys.

UT professor leads campaign to fight human traffickingWritten by David Yonke Editor, ToledoFAVS.com | | firstname.lastname@example.com
A Toledo professor, a retired FBI agent, a successful businessman, a former gang leader and the director of a prayer ministry joined forces Feb. 4 to get churches more involved in fighting human trafficking.
Dr. Celia Williamson, a University of Toledo associate professor and a nationally known expert on trafficking, said she is planning a "30 churches in 30 days" campaign to address the topic that afflicts Toledo more than most cities.
Williamson told the group of about 40 meeting in the Greater Toledo House of Prayer that Toledo ranks fourth in human trafficking arrests and rescues among U.S. cities with task forces investigating that crime.
In a talk that lasted more than an hour, Williamson reviewed statistics on local, national and global levels and explained techniques traffickers use to recruit victims. She also gave tips on identifying possible victims, ways to report suspicious behavior (the national hotline is 800-373-7888), and how ciizens can get involved in fighting the crime.
Bill Radcliffe, who retired after 29½ years in the FBI, said he was glad to have a "second chance" in retirement to help trafficking victims, citing regrets about cases he failed to pursue while on active duty.
Al Caperna, founder and chairman of Affirm Global Development and owner and chairman of CMC Group, called people to pray against trafficking and prodded those in the audience to volunteer in some capacity.
Willie Knighten, a former gang leader, was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison, only to be released 12 years later when the trial judge, Judge William Skow, wrote to the governor saying he believed his verdict was in error.
Knighten said vulnerable girls are attracted to drug dealers and pimps because "they have the money," and said gang leaders and traffickers "break the girls' self-esteem."
Caperna said he knows churches can make a difference, citing a dramatic turnaround in an AIDS epidemic in Mozambique within 10 years because the nation's pastors began speaking about the problem.
Williamson said a 15-minute version of the slide show she used to illustrate her talk is available for people willing to speak in churches, and promised to train volunteers to give talks.
She said a conservative estimate is that 12.3 million people worldwide are now victims of human trafficking; 100,000 U.S. youth are trafficked in the sex trade each year, including more than 1,000 in Ohio, and nearly 800 foreign victims are trafficked in Ohio annually.
Radcliffe said he regretted not doing more to stop trafficking when he was in the FBI. When he investigated organized crime and gambling in Toledo, for example, the department arrested mobsters for drugs and violence, but never for prostitution, even though gangsters offered young girls to gamblers to distract them during rigged games.
"We prosecuted the mob leaders. We prosecuted the leg-breakers. But nobody asked about the young girls," Radcliffe said.
He also was part of an investigation into forced prostitution at Asian massage parlors in Toledo about a dozen years ago. Just as the task force was set to move, terrorists hit New York and Washington and agents were shifted to anti-terrorism duties.The massage parlor investigation was virtually dropped, Radcliffe said.
He said he is looking for ways that retired agents can help law-enforcement officials investigate the 18,000 runaways in Ohio every year. Police don't have the manpower to track them but every city has retired agents who could assist the "overworked" departments, he said.
"This is the void that we're attempting to see if we can fill," he said, "but we have to do it in a legal manner or else we are nothing more than vigilantes."
Williamson said that when she first started studying human trafficking in 1993, there wasn't even a term for the problem.
Public awareness has been rising, law-enforcement has become more skilled at investigating, new laws have been passed against trafficking and aiding victims, and a number of churches and nonprofit groups have gotten involved in the cause.
Williamson said one reason Toledo has received a "black eye" by ranking fourth in human trafficking arrests is because the city is doing something about it. The crime occurs everywhere but it is often ignored, she said.
"We're talking about and we're going to keep talking about it," Williamson vowed, adding that 99 victims have been rescued locally.
And she wants the talks to carry over into churches. "If we can educate 30 churches in 30 days, we can educate the people," she said. "Daughters will become aware and sons will become defenders."
David Yonke is the editor and community manager of Toledo Faith & Values (ToledoFAVS.com), a website that provides in-depth, nonsectarian news coverage of religion, faith and spirituality in the Toledo area.

Finally, the Thunderbolt S!
Intel announces next generation, 20Gbps Thunderbolt
Intel has announced the next generation of its Thunderbolt interface with support for up to 20Gbps throughput, as well as support for 4K. Code-named Falcon Ridge, this new version of Thunderbolt sports some impressive capabilities. According to Engadget
But let's talk about the real news: the next-gen Thunderbolt tech (code-named Falcon Ridge) enables 4K video file transfer and display simultaneously in addition to running at 20 Gbps.
In addition to its impressive output, Falcon Ridge will be compatible with the first-generation ports and connectors. The current version of Thunderbolt, formerly Light Peak, has a maximum throughput of 10Gbps, and has been on various Macs since 2011.
Of particular interest to Mac users -- current Thunderbolt connectors can't support enough bandwidth for a theoretical Retina 27" LED Thunderbolt display. This one could.
Falcon Ridge is expected to start production in 2014.

Intel announces next generation, 20Gbps Thunderbolt
Wrong architecture. It's Intel and requires PCI. Doesn't exist on ARM-based iOS device boards.
Any news on the iPhone 5 giveaway?
That is awesome!
If I understood Anandtech's article: 1. Redwood Ridge's ThunderBolt spec (Display Port 1.2) controllers are being released this year most likely with Intel's Haswell chips and are capable of displaying 4K content, most likely with the 2013 Mac lineup. These are still 10GBs transfer rate but could display a 4K resolution. So is it possible we could see a 4K Thunderbolt display later this year?
The current Thunderbolt display's is 2560 by 1440, not sure whether Apple would need to double this resolution to be "retina" though I don't think they need to.
2. The 2014 Falcon Ridge controllers increase the performance from 10GBs to 20GBs also 4K (or higher?) and AnandTech speculates this spec may also allow for external GPU's.
Re: "...and AnandTech speculates this spec may also allow for external GPU's."
Awesome. If there's enough bandwidth for that, there's also enough bandwidth for external CPUs. As in snapping together CPU modules, SSD modules, GPU modules, etc.
I've always thought that some future Mac Pro could be completely modular. The enabling technology would be a faster connector protocol, and 20Gbps Thunderbolt could be it.
I'm excited for the potential of daisy chain displays in he Haswell Thunderbolt update. This daisy chain feature is only available in DisplayPort 1.2
Honestly, expansion of Thunderbolt to make more accessories available at a cheaper price seems more important to me right now.
Irrespective of how great it is and its benefits over USB, I don't see the average user picking it over USB 3.0, especially when USB is so ubiquitous.
Hopefully, Intel makes it a requirement for Ultrabooks in the near future, like it has touchscreens for Haswell.

Since i don't take a ton of notes all the note taking apps perplex me. Honestly, the basic note taking apps that come with the device are all i want. I've tried many and they are totally overcomplicated for my needs. FYI i do have evernote and i like it. I just don't use it all that often. Evernote was one of the first apps i got for the palm pre so i still have it. but i can just as easily write most of the same stuff in the note app and pull it up at will. And i got the rest of my docs in sugar sync and skydrive. Like i tried a bunch of note apps and shopping list apps and realized i spent more time using the app formating the entry then i did just writing down the info in the basic note apps.
Eitherway it's a nice app with and has a pretty nice interface.
Evernote: Best app to take and organize notes on your iPad
"Evernote is hands down the best way to take and organize notes on the iPad whether you're in class, in a meeting, or on the go. Pair that with the ability to use Evernote across any platform available and it simply can't be beat."
Taking notes on the iPad is a great way to save on the amount of physical paper you have floating around and a much easier way to stay organized. There's so many note taking apps in the App Store that choosing one can be a bigger task than anything. Syncing notes across all your devices and organizing them has never been easier when you use Evernote for iPad. If you prefer typing out your notes instead of using a handwritten notes app, Evernote is the best choice.
Whether you need to take freeform notes, create checklists, or upload pictures - Evernote's got you covered. The best part about Evernote is that they've got a client for pretty much any platform you'll be using. I frequently take notes on my iPad in meetings or during consults. When I get back to my office they're already synchronized and available on my iMac. From there I can share them via e-mail, Twitter, or Facebook or send them directly to my printer. If you've ever had to take minutes for a meeting it's never been easier to send notes out to all attendants before you even leave the meeting.
Upon starting a new note in Evernote you'll notice that you've got the option to add them to notebooks and add tags to notes. This makes searching and sorting less of a task and super simple. I've got several types of clients from consulting to web design. I simply tag the note appropriately in my work notebook and I can find their notes in just a few taps from anywhere inside Evernote.
I've also found Evernote to be a great place to store information such as serial numbers or photos when price shopping. Just take a quick photo inside a new note and tag it however you'd like. I love doing this when shopping for electronics or other items that I want to check prices for at multiple places. It allows me to easily compare prices without hand typing information that's already on the price tag.
While Evernote is free to use you are limited as to how much storage you can use in one month. A free account gives you 60MB a month worth of storage. It'll reset every month back to zero. If you plan on taking more text notes than anything a free account will suit you just fine and you'll most likely never come close to hitting that cap, unless you're a note taking maniac. If you plan on saving a lot of images or screen caps to Evernote, you can probably come close to that cap and may want to consider upgrading.
For $5.00/month or $45/year you'll get 1GB of storage upload space per month as well as many other premium features including the following -
- Offline access
- No ads
- Extensive note history that allows you to view past versions of your notes (good if you're collaborating with others)
- 50MB uploads per note
- Pin lock allowing you to lock your Evernote application to prevent unauthorized access
- PDF search
I personally have always used the free version of Evernote and I've never hit the cap. 60MB may not seem like a lot of space but if you're only snapping a few pictures here and there and most of what you'll be doing involves taking text notes, a free account will serve you great. While the free version is ad-supported, you'll only really see ads on the PC or Mac version of the client and they're tucked away in a corner and extremely unobtrusive.
The good
- Great user interface across all platforms that's familiar when you jump from one device to another
- A free account will be sufficient for many users
- Fast syntonization across all your devices for easy access to your notes from anywhere
- Multiple notebooks and tags make organizing your notes super simple
The bad
- No way to passcode protect your notes unless you pay for Premium which is a bit of a let down
Evernote is hands down the best way to take and organize notes on the iPad whether you're in class, in a meeting, or on the go. Pair that with the ability to use Evernote across any platform available and it simply can't be beat. Whether you use an iPad and an iPhone or an iPad and an Android or BlackBerry, Evernote has you covered.

Evernote: Best app to take and organize notes on your iPad

I didn't see the point of evernote before, until I got a lot of screens (2 phones, a tablet, and a laptop). evernote became the backend godsend for syncing all of them (notes, images, voice memo, pdf, emails straight to evernote).
evernote as a web service is a hundred times more useful than just the app/client.
I have Evernote - still trying to see how I can integrate it in my day-to-day seamlessly. For me, Notability has the features and intuitive setup/use that suits my needs, be it school or work. (though for official work it's still sometimes quicker/easier for me to just grap a pen and pad)
Can't argue with the features and accessibility of Evernote, though... there's just something about the setup that makes it awkward for me to use.
Good writeup.
Typing notes on the iPad seems slow and cumbersome when one is trying to keep up with a talking professor. Also I remember frequently needing to create freehand drawings on the fly. I, too, and unsure why Evernote would be the best choice for taking notes in almost any situation. The automatic syncing it does sound nice though.
I see people gushing over Evernote everywhere, but I just don't get it. Springpad has all the features of Evernote but is free (including offline access).
But I mainly use it to get notes from my PC to my iPad, not the other way around. For taking notes on my iPad I much prefer a handwriting app such as Note Taker HD.
That is incorrect. Springpad can be used offline, which (as I pointed out) is one reason I prefer it over Evernote. As Ms. Kazmucha points out in her post, Evernote has offline support but you have to pay for it.
Thank you for your comment Tim, I think that Springpad is a well desinged service, but the barrier to entry for mundane tasks it a little too much for my liking and for general notes. For example: When you open the Springpad app on the iPhone the first thing you are taken to is a view of all of your notes, this now makes the main purpose of the app Making Notes take one more step to complete. Granted you can create simple tasks using the Springpad app and on your iPhone and this is one of the features I did find useful and wish that Evernote had. However one of the important things that I need in a note application is a way to get memories, ideas and thoughts out of my head so that I can stick to the GTD way of thinking and write them down.Another reason that Springpad does not work for me, (this could change in the future) is that it is not available on all of my devices and tools that I use. This greatly reduces my use for it. The ability to be useful and available every where that I am, is what makes Evernote so powerful and useful. Also since Evernote has an API it allows other people and companies to create great services that work with Evernote and to be more specialized on a specific area of notes, like the Egretlist, JotNot and FastEver apps on the iPhone. This makes it possible for Evernote to focus on the important things like stability, new features etc.I am not ruling out Springpad as a great app, I just think that Springpad and Evernote has two different goals and for taking notes when and where I am Evernote wins in my opinion.
I've been using Evernote for a while now and I love. Although I use it more to sync stuff from PC to Iphone and Ipad (Like a recipes i found on the net, or Photography tips, anything useful on the go). Snapping pictures works great for when I'm shopping and wanna compare prices.
I also use the Chrome browser extension and with it I can clip websites' url, whole page, images or selection.
works great I love. The Ipad version is use-friendly too.
After using evernote for a few months I needed to upgrade accounts because I was adding in so much content. But the truth is, once you use it as much as I do you almost feel guilty if you didnt pay them. Such a great service and the premium version is the best $45/yr investment I have made in a long time.
I'm trying to keep my cloud life less fragmented. I've started to pull away from services that don't either sync with iCloud or Dropbox. I really don't want my data spattered around multiple services all costing $20-$50 per year.
For me, I just use Pages with iCloud sync for note taking and a student edition of DropDav to get Pages into Dropbox if desired. It's Better, but still not as smooth as I'd like. Someday..
I know I sound like a broken record, but look into Springpad.
I should get royalties from them as much as I tout their product.
I can teach you more regarding auto scacrth remover . They wish to permit something that reveals this portentously named auto scacrth remover. But, let's take a theoretical example. To locate a decent auto scacrth remover you might have to imagine outside the box. You might have to continue to try that as often as possible. My experience with auto scacrth remover is something I've been going through as well. That year shoppers must get in on a good deal . In effect, in this installment, I'm going to give you a good many quick tips for auto scacrth remover .
Is it too much to ask to give us a list view in the iPad app? Seriously, stacks are gimmicky and useless. What does a tiny preview of a typed note tell you? Nothing. You look at the name of the notebook under the useless preview.
I have a few dozen notebooks. I want a list view. Like the Mac app has.
When I turn the screen off on my ipohne and lock it, (not turn it off completely) it makes this weird high-pitched chirping noise, it's loud and it starts chirping really high and quickly and slowly starts to chirp deeper and slower. Then it will suddenly stop. It only lasts a few seconds and doesn't happen whn he iPhone is on vibrate, (duh)Why is it doing this and how can I get it to stop?Why is
I don't get all the Springpad love. It may be fine if all you want to do is collect recipes, but I need to be able to create, organise and edit long text notes on the go and the last time I looked Springpad didn't allow editing. You also can't delete or even move the stupid "Friend's Stuff", which takes up a prime location on the tiny iPhone screen. And unless you live in the US, many search functions, including the barcode scanner, are useless as they show mostly US results.
My one bugbear with Evernote is the ongoing issue with text formatting becoming corrupted if notes are edited on iOS or during sync between devices or platforms. It's beyond me why a note taking app can't sort out something so basic. Other than that, its functionality and compatibility with other apps is far superior to Springpad, Simple Note et al.
before calling something best you need to compare with competition
Try microsoft onenote
I've been browsing on-line more than three hours these days, but I by no means discovered any attention-grabbing article like yours. It is pretty worth sufficient for me. In my view, if all website owners and bloggers made just right content material as you probably did, the web shall be much more useful than ever before.
I tried for months Evernote but at the end I really prefered Beesy a new app where I can organize my tasks for business purposes. good project management and it's not easy to find nowadays. http://www.beesapps.com/beesy-ipad-to-do/ im quite pleased with it

The Hanahan Hawks didn't have to break too much of a sweat in running their record to 5-0.
In a way, that concerns their coach Charlie Patterson.
"I don't think we played with a lot of intensity, on defense especially," said Patterson, whose team hammered Wade Hampton 56-16 on Friday. "We let them have a few things in there that we shouldn't have.
"We've got to play with some more emotion and intensity against better teams."
Hanahan's closest game is a 35-0 victory over Bishop England.
They hit the road to take on Orangeburg-Wilkinson this Friday. The Bruins are also unbeaten, coming off a 28-21 win over Richland Northeast.
The two teams have one common opponent so far. The Bruins edged Edisto 21-14 and the Hawks defeated Edisto 45-7 two games ago.
"We're looking forward to it," Patterson said. "It's a lot more fun when you've got good competition. Hopefully our kids will be ready to play hard."
Against Wade Hampton, quarterback Mason Schwerzler threw six touchdown passes. He was 11 of 17 for 281 yards.
Sam Denmark caught five passes for 126 yards and three scores, while Terrell Green made three catches for 95 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Chase Pfaff made the other touchdown grab for the Hawks.
Running back Quan Wade rushed for 71 yards on seven carries and backup quarterback Walt Fagan added a touchdown run.
Andrew Conyers had an interception return for the Hanahan defense.

Denver, CO (Sports Network) - Hot as their name suggests, the Reds continued to scorch the competition on Sunday with a 7-2 victory over the Rockies.
Mat Latos (9-3) lasted eight innings, allowing two runs on four hits with three walks and eight strikeouts to help complete the three-game sweep.
The Reds have now won 10 straight games, which marks their longest streak since 1999. The National League Central-leaders are 14-2 since the All-Star break and have swept three straight series.
Drew Stubbs and Jay Bruce both hit a fifth-inning homer in the victory while Miguel Cairo added a pair of RBI.
Jonathan Sanchez (0-2), in his second start since being acquired from the Royals, gave up six runs on eight hits over 4 1/3 innings in the setback.
Rookie Josh Rutledge hit a first-inning, two-run homer for the Rockies, losers of five straight home games.
"It's frustrating, but at the same time we have to go out and keep battling," Rockies outfielder Dexter Fowler said about his team's struggles. "It's just not shaking out right now. Hopefully it will turn around soon."
Cincinnati completed a perfect six-game road trip with Sunday's win and improved to 11-2 since former NL MVP and three-time All-Star Joey Votto left the lineup with a knee injury.
Brandon Phillips, who drove home Stubbs with a single in the first inning, was removed from the game in the fifth.
"He had a cramp, a very serious cramp," said Reds manager Dusty Baker. "I'm hoping it's just that."
Stubbs finished with three RBI and a stolen base. He had a sacrifice fly after Zack Cozart's leadoff triple in the third, then plated Cozart again in the fifth with his 12th homer of the season.
Bruce followed two batters later with a solo shot -- his 20th of the year.
"We had some big home runs out of some guys and we swung the bats well this series," Baker said.
Chris Heisey had a triple in the second inning and a double in the eighth and Cairo drove him home on both occasions, notching a sac fly and a single, respectively.
The Reds won the season series against the Rockies, 5-1...Votto underwent arthroscopic surgery on July 17 to repair the torn medial meniscus in his left knee. He is expected to miss three-to-four weeks from the time of the procedure...Sanchez was acquired on July 20 in exchange for pitcher Jeremy Guthrie.

Treece Blog: Airport privatization: The case for changeWritten by Dock David Treece | | email@example.com
Several years ago I was having lunch with an outgoing elected official. This person had — at a relatively young age — accomplished much in public service, and was retiring from elected office to focus on career and family. At our meeting I was given a valuable piece of advice, which has guided many of my efforts since then: If you aren't willing to put your hat in the ring to try to make things better, then you have no right to complain about the decisions other people make or the results that follow.
One day not very long after that meeting, my father and I were talking about broad issues affecting this region. Dad was lamenting — as he is wont to do — the state of Toledo's airports: their underutilized state, their dilapidated facilities, their recent threats of restrictions due to air traffic control tower closures, and the general mismanagement that goes back decades. We talked about issues we thought were holding back this region's airports (and the aviation industry in general) and their development.
What was said next, as it turns out, has become the source of much excitement, frustration and consternation as well as personal attacks.
What was said was that if things were so wrong with Toledo's airports, we as citizens had a right and an obligation to explore opportunities and alternatives that might make them better.
After that talk, our due diligence began. We met with current and former Port Authority officials. We talked to people from the city, current and former airport tenants, and others who had explored various ideas previously. We did all of this to better understand the problems facing businesses at the airports, the users of both facilities, the city as their owner and the Port Authority as their public manager.
We also wanted to understand — in as much detail as possible — the various duties of an airport operator. What they do, what they are required to do, what they elect to do, how they do what they do and who performs specific functions were all items we needed to understand in depth. What we found was startling. First, a great many of the functions being performed by current operating staff were not required.
Almost all of those that were required could easily be scaled back or performed by independent contractors or outside providers.
Feasibility study
Two years ago, as talks progressed and our understanding of the airports became more and more detailed, we retained a consultant — one of the best aviation consultants in the world — to conduct a full market feasibility study for both airports. This study has enabled us to understand the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats facing both airports, the likelihood of turning them around under private-sector leadership and the odds and consequences of failure.
From our consultant, we also learned how the transition to a private operator should be structured to avoid the repayment of nearly $100 million in federal funds that were supplied for improvement projects at both airports over the past several decades. Consequently, we are better prepared to ensure that federal funds will be available for future improvements at both airports.
Developing a strategy
Now, having studied the issue comprehensively and having consulted with attorneys and experts, we have developed a strategy that will allow a private entity to step into the management role currently filled by the Toledo-Lucas County Port Authority. We have found a way to transfer the control needed to attract business, help current businesses grow, run both airports profitably, provide greater benefits to the city as the owner of those facilities and get the public off the hook for tremendous outstanding debt in the form of unexpired federal grants.
Up until this point, everything we had done was purely for our own consumption. We wanted — and want — to ensure that we understand as much as possible about the potential alternatives for management of Toledo's airports. All told, this due diligence process has been ongoing for more than three years and was conducted at our own expense.
To bring the community up to speed on our findings and to get a second opinion on our concept, we ultimately expanded our discussions to include officials from the Port Authority, city and nearby townships. We launched our website ToledoAirports.com in November as a source for up-to-date information and to provide a public forum to discuss the findings of our marketability study, as well as our own business histories and qualifications. Since most people know us for our investment advisory business, we want to make it apparent that we also have a diverse set of business interests and histories in a number of industries, which we think will enable us to be successful private managers of Toledo's airports, should the city elect to consider an arrangement like the one we plan to propose.
Forum for debate
However, we still weren't ready to roll out our plan in its entirety. By this time it was the fall of a local election year. There were races going on for the mayor's office and several City Council seats. We had hoped that our concept for the airports wouldn't become an election issue, because during elections it seems every issue becomes controversial. This project is far too important for this region to become a mere plank in someone's political platform. There is far too much to consider for everything to be reduced down to a few talking points.
Now that Mayor D. Michael Collins and several new City Council members have taken office, the airport discussion has resumed and Councilman Rob Ludeman has extended us an invitation for a public hearing before City Council's Economic Development Committee, which is precisely the forum where debate surrounding this issue belongs.
We hope, in our hearing(s), to have constructive talks with the city and any concerned members of the public. Our goal is to help them explore and understand some of the alternatives available to them for management of valuable, underutilized city facilities. We also intend for everyone — both city officials and ourselves — to walk away with a clear understanding of if and how the city may choose to pursue the alternatives we present. This may be done through a public request for proposals or letters of interest, or by entering into private negotiations.
If the city issues a request for proposals (RFP), it may receive some other bids. However, we can reasonably say we've discussed it with a number of the national firms likely to respond to such an RFP and any outside manager is going to charge the city a management fee.
Time to confirm
Since we have not and will not ask the city for such a fee, the city could theoretically negotiate with us directly. This would allow us the time to confirm our answers to a number of questions ranging from the impact on federal funds to the potential closure of the air traffic control tower at Toledo Express, while also permitting us to be far more open with the city in discussing potential tenants we have talked with, as well as plans for development of property at and around the airports.
In any project like the one we have been working on for Toledo's airports, there are extensive moving parts. There are a number of issues to address, problems that arise and solutions that need to be found. Second and third opinions are always valuable, and it is important that all concerned parties have an intimate understanding of the facts. While we don't want to do anything that won't get approval from the FAA, we also want to make sure we have an arrangement that is financially feasible.
Our biggest hope is that hearings with City Council are a launch pad for the exploration and consideration of our proposal. We hope to share our findings with officials from the city and members of the public who are interested, and want everyone to walk away with a better understanding of the potential for positive change at Toledo's airports.

The Hushamok Organic Hammock is an innovative sleep hammock designed to provide you and your baby the most restful sleep. While flat and static surfaces like cribs and Moses baskets are foreign to babies, the hammock in combination with the Hushamok Oakoa Wood or aluminum stand (sold separately) mimics the womb by creating a gentle, rhythmic rocking motion so baby sleeps better and longer. It can even be used without a stand for added versatility.
Made from 100% Turkish organic cotton for a natural, healthy sleeping environment for your precious one.
Because of the natural motion of the Organic Dream Hammock, carbon dioxide is not trapped around the baby which, when re-breathed, is said to be one of the causes of SIDS.
The Hushamok Experience has been tested and passed the mechanical testing under the US Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA) Certification Program. Also passes the EU certification program for Safety Requirements and Test Methods for Cribs and Cradles for the relevant EN 1130 requirements.
The unique design reduces strain on baby's spine and nerves by maintaining the natural primary curve of the spine. Other baby hammocks have no form, which could compromise babies breathing and spinal support. The addition of the EVA foam insert conforms to baby's shape and prevents any dipping in the middle.
The upright, angled position assists babies with natural sleep, colic and reflux.
The Organic Hammock also reduces the development of Flat Head Syndrome, Plagiocephaly, because baby's head weight is distributed more evently to the rest of the body.
Boxed Set Includes:
- Hammock in an un-dyed organic cotton
- Mattress
- 2 matching fitted sheets
