wow... 1 cut lol. There is a formula you can look up online. You have to use real proven numbers though. Sign a full disclosure and have them show you tax records. No company that large does their own taxes. Also, bank statements. Take a look at those. The equipment isn't worth maybe 10-20% retail for everything to the last shovel. But you didn't ask how to do it.. you asked how much would I pay... $885,000.00 given the numbers you put out there to include everything. I wouldn't pay it all up front.
I would give him 33% up front and the remainder would be paid with net profits after my new additional MODEST $35k salary and also the remainder would be dependent on the attrition rate. so potentially 885k but not guaranteed. And that's a very low offer.
I would probably fire all employees and bring in my own crews as well. The owner and some foremen would be required to stay on board for 6 months with a company this large.
Basically, you would need to settle on a cap rate. I would guess that a reasonable cap rate for a lawn biz with solid numbers would be somewhere in the neighborhood of 25%. If the net profits after everything, including your salary IF you decide you must work in this business, are $300,000, then I would say offer no more than $1.2M. Ideally, you would want to leverage 75% or more with the bank's money so that your return will be higher and your money is available to buy more companies. For example, if you paid $1.2M cash and profits are $300k, your getting a 25% ROI (thus the cap rate). If you borrow 75% of the purchase price ($900,000) at 10% interest, your interest payments will be $90,000 and net cashflow will be reduced to $210,000. But, since you only have $300,000 of your money invested, your ROI is 70%. Getting a 70% annual return on your investments is how you retire @ 40.
Going forward, you might try to streamline this operation as much as possible and add new customers to the bottom line. Let's say you reduce expenses by 10%, or $70,000 and add 100 customers, or $30,000 profit for a total addition of $100,000 net profit. Now your net profit before interest is $400,000. Divided by that same 25% cap rate, your business is now worth $1.6M. Sell it for 1.6, pay off the 900k loan and your $300k investment turned in to $700,000, all while earning you $210k a year.
The rule of thumb I have seen is this.....
Fair market value of equipment, then like the cost of 1 cut all the way up to a months worth of cuts depending if the customer is under contract or not...
Employees are not worth anything when selling really..... who knows if you will like them or if they will like you or even stick around. they may be over paid and you may not be willing to pay them that much and they may leave ect ect.
If I was to buy one the equipment is what I would be looking at in the deal... now if it was the beginning of the year and the customers knew I was buying it and signed a contract agreeing to stay will me the rest of the year then I would put an offer in but make sure that at the end of the year I would have the money I have invested paid off plus then some... enough to make it worth my while......
Id also want to see his dollar figures going out... as in how much he is spending..... if I could stream line it more and make more profit then that would be worth looking into more.... if it is pretty much perfected then that would affect my offer some.
No way I would offer 1.2 million or anything close...... hard to really give a descent figure on what it is worth, to many variables like above not to mention condition of equipment, employee pay/benefits ect ect.
If it was proven that this person was making 300k then I would be around what I would think of offering........ Gross mean's nothing to me...... unless a monkey runs the company it should be fairly streamlined and may not have a ton of room for improvement..... Assuming that it is running fairly well I would want my money back pretty fast. If everything fell apart with it after a year I would have my money back....... instead of loosing say 900k.
Id also want the owner to say on for X amount of time to help with the transition and pay him X amount to do it. Lastly I would have my lawyer looking over everything along with my accountant and all documents' the company has would be theirs to review including bank and tax statements.
I really think anything over 3XX,XXX is not smart from a business stand point.

Seriously, you think your business is worth the price of one to four mowings?
Try selling yours , see what its worth. A lot of folks here are going to be quite surprised come retirement time if their buss is their only retirement plan.
Once ya take away the equitment, all ya got left is a bunch of uneducated employees and a bunch of people that pay you to do something they can do themselves but just dont want to.
There was a local that sold his biz for 100k, it pulled in about 250k.... all commercial all under contract....
He sold with it 4 flat bet truck with gooseneck trailors and 4 twin engine 72 inch Dixie Choppers on each.... a good chunk of that 100k was for the equipment....
What something is worth is one thing... what someone is willing to pay for it is another....... you may think your truck is worth say 30k but that only matter's if someone is willing to pay you 30k for it.........
I don't have my retierment tied up in selling everything....... I plan to give it all to my son if he want's it... if not then Ill figure it out when I get there but when I retire I iwill be set before that day comes... If I do sell everything Ill only count on getting money out of the equipment............
99.9% of the members up here would never reach 1000 lawns a week, but yet some are saying why pay for a company of this size.
1000 lawns a week x $35 x 30 weeks = $1,050,000
Employee pay per crew per lawn = $13.20 x 1000 lawns x 30 weeks = $396,000
Fuel $2 per lawn = $2000 x 30 weeks = $60,000
Door hangers printed and delivered 100,000 a season =$13k
Equipment renewed every 2 years including trucks $8,000 a year= $60,000
biz Insurance and truck insurance $15k
office help $50k
credit card fees $23k
subtotal $617,000
plus 20% for misc $123,400
Total $740,400
plus $80k for taxes
Final Total $820,400
Owner profit $230,000
Rough numbers
I was referring to a business. Sounds like you are talking about a job. A business makes a profit whether the owner is present or not. A job is something you go do every day. You do not have to sell your businesses to retire, retirement means you do nothing, but your investments have enough cash flow to cover your bills and then some. If I could invest $300,000 and it returned $300,000 annually, I'd do it every day and twice on Sunday. I'm more concerned about the customers and the profit margin, whereas you are more concerned about the equipment, because you are interested in working.
This company is not real. I was just trying to see where people was on this subject. Like I said before so many people on here act like you should only pay a few bucks for each account. Now there are companies out there doing more then 1,000 lawns a week. I know of one that is doing atleast 5,000 if not 6k-8k lawns a week. It can be done and profits can be good. This thread helps seperate real business people from the average lawn boy IMO.

Olive, the Other Reindeerby J. Otto Seibold and Vivian Walsh
Synopses & Reviews
From Powells.com:
J.otto Seibold and Vivian Walsh are the George and Ira Gershwin of children's books. Okay, maybe that's a stretch. But they are a remarkable team. In 1993 the husband and wife collaboration published their first book, Mr. Lunch Takes a Plane Ride. A perfectly proportioned blend of whimsy and style, this hilarious and improbable tale of a Picasso-faced little dog was an immediate hit with kids and adults alike. The pair's subsequent books have all become perennial bestsellers, and Seibold's playful, Matisse-with-a-Mac illustrations made him something of an icon among designers. Perhaps the pair's best-known work, though, is Olive the Other Reindeer, which was recently made into the most popular animated Christmas special since How the Grinch Stole Christmas. The story's plot is simple. A little dog named Olive misunderstands the words to "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer." Instead of "All of the other reindeer" she hears "Olive, the other reindeer," and thinks, "I thought I was a dog. Hmmm. I must be a Reindeer." Happy to have cleared that up, Olive catches a bus — well, it takes a couple of buses — and heads to the North Pole. Fortunately, Olive is just in time to join Santa and the other reindeer in their Christmas Eve duties. As usual, the writing is both simple enough for a child and witty enough for an adult, but what makes Olive the Other Reindeer stand heads and shoulders above the other Christmas books crowding the shelves are Seibold's wonderfully waggish illustrations. Farley, Powells.com
Publisher Comments:
Olive is merrily preparing for Christmas when suddenly she realizes "Olive... the other Reindeer... I thought I was a dog. Hmmm, I must be a Reindeer!" So she quickly hops aboard the polar express and heads to the North Pole. And while Santa and the other reindeer are a bit surprised that a dog wants to join the their team, in the end Olive and her unusual reindeer skills are just what Santa and his veteran reindeer team need. Colorful graphic illustrations accompany this zany dog story from the well-known author and artist team, Vivian and J.otto Seibold. Adorable Olive and her hilarious adventures are sure to make anyone's Christmas merry.
"Silly, but slightly amusing for kids who can appreciate the play on words and doggie humor." Marilyn Courtot, Children's Literature
Seibold and Walsh specialize in street-smart art and convoluted story-lines....Seibold's illustration style [is] a sort of cubism for the '90s. His computer-generated, airbrush-smooth characters resemble digital icons, but their asymmetrical quality lends them a hand-drawn warmth. The spreads are abuzz with comical details." Publishers Weekly
"Seibold's story, its predictability obvious from the start, doesn't quite live up to its promising title. The idea of another person, animal or toy...helping Santa to deliver the gifts on Christmas Eve...is tired and worn-out. Only the very young will find this story amusing....The text even contains a spelling error. Definitely not worth the price." Gail Hamilton, CM: Canadian Review of Materials
Thinking that "all of the other reindeer" she hears people singing about include her, Olive the dog reports to the North Pole to help Santa Claus on Christmas Eve.
A companion to the new deluxe edition of Olive, the Other Reindeerand a wonderful Christmas gift in its own rightthis advent calendar offers an engaging and interactive way to count down to Christmas. And just like Olive is no ordinary "reindeer," this is no ordinary advent calendar! Featuring an intricate pop-up of Santa's castle in the center, the calendar has a surprise for each day leading up to Christmasa punch-out figure that children can stand up and place around the castle, whether it's Santa, a reindeer, or Olive herself! By the time December 25 arrives, the calendar will have become a very merry Christmas scene!
This beautiful deluxe edition marks the tenth anniversary of J.otto Seibold and Vivian Walsh's modern Christmas classicthe story of a little dog named Olive with big reindeer dreams! When the book was first published in 1997, it enjoyed great reviews and has since sold more than 1 million copies. This new edition is a larger version of the original book, and itfeatures flaps to lift, spots to scratch and sniff, and a pop-up grand finale. Designed to be a perfect holiday gift, this edition will appeal to Olive's many fans and is sure to make new ones.
About the Author
J.otto Seibold and Vivian Walsh live in California with their two daughters, Theadora and Amelia; and their two dogs, Olive and Mr. Lunch. J.otto draws all the time. It's his job. He's a professional. He draws on a computer, which makes him sort of like a scientist. But he doesn't wake up until noon, which makes him like an artist. J.otto Seibold and Vivian Walsh have illustrated four books for children: Mr. Lunch Takes a Ride, Mr. Lunch Borrows a Canoe, Monkey Business, and Free Lunch.

Operating profit before impairments and exceptional items in the year to 31 December 2011 was £94.5m, up from £85m in 2010. Underlying profit before tax at the lender increased by 12 per cent to £84.6m.
Gross mortgage advances totalled £4bn, which represented 2.8 per cent of all mortgage advances in the UK and about 17 per cent of all lending by building societies and mutual lenders, the business told the Stock Exchange.
Coventry's share of new mortgage lending has more than trebled since 2006. Net lending in 2011 totalled £1.7bn, equivalent to 18.3 per cent of all net mortgage lending undertaken in the UK.
Chief executive David Stewart said: "The rise in sustainable profits was achieved through continued growth in responsible mortgage lending funded by another exceptional performance in attracting and retaining retail balances.
"Importantly, it was achieved while continuing to offer value to savings and borrowing customers, as evidenced by the low net interest margin which has remained stable and under control throughout the financial crisis.
"In 2011, as in the two previous years, the society was also able to source competitive funds from the wholesale markets and executed two notable debut transactions by launching both sterling and euro covered bonds."
Its strong funding position is evidenced by its inaugural sterling covered bond issuance of £750m in April and first euro covered bond of €650m in October 2011, the company added.
Retail savings balances grew by £1.4bn in the period to £19bn, with more than 400,000 customers opening accounts with the society in 2011.
Operating profit after impairments and exceptional items, including £10.7m of integration and merger costs and losses on loans and advances to customers of £9.9m, was £60.5m, compared with £58.5m in 2010.
Pre-tax profit was down from £100.6m to £59.5m as the society received a £43.8m gain on business combination in 2010, which boosted its before tax profit.

Data-binding assists with the separation of the User Interface level of your application from the
other layers of your application (business objects, data, and so forth). This separation of
responsibility is further reinforced by decoupling the UI target from its source through the use of
a Binding object.
The binding object can be thought of as a black box with a universal connectors on one side for the target and on the other side for the source. There are switches on top, the most important of which is the Data Binding Mode switch which determines which way the data will flow.
If you were building an on line bookstore and were displaying information about a book, you
might use OneTime binding for the Title and Author (once you get them, they are not going to
change) and OneWay binding for the price (someone might mark down the price during the day)
but you'd want TwoWay binding for the Quantity on hand.
The User Interface layer will consist of controls that we will obtain from the toolbox and use as offered for now, though a future tutorial will demonstrate how to change their appearance using styles and templates.

This interface requires only one thing: that the class have an event of type

A man from Ohio surrendered Monday to the Jefferson County Sheriffs Department for his arrest on allegations that in 2009, he used a stolen debit card to pay his $3,368 truck repair bill at AAMCO Transmission, 595 Coffeen St.
Matthew A. Riehl, 25, Logan, Ohio, additionally used the same card at five locations at Fort Drum and in the town of LeRay to attempt to obtain cash and make purchases for a total of $2,972, the sheriffs office alleges.
Mr. Riehl was arraigned by City Judge Eugene R. Renzi on charges of third-degree grand larceny, attempted first-degree identity theft and fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property, and was released without bail to await grand jury action. His surrender on warrants issued in 2010 was arranged by the Jefferson County district attorneys office and public defenders office, according to the sheriffs office.
The use of the card, belonging to Lucas A. Zamora, occurred on one day, Aug. 12, 2009, according to sheriffs documents. Attempts were made to use the card at two KeyBank branches on Fort Drum, two AAFES business sites at Fort Drum, Bradleys Military, 26444 Route 11, and Walmart Supercenter, Route 11, the documents allege.
The card was stolen from Mr. Zamoras vehicle, according to the sheriffs office. Mr. Zamora was a Fort Drum soldier at the time and was ill in Watertown, a detective said. His colleagues drove his auto back to Fort Drum, where Mr. Riehl, also a soldier, had access to the vehicle, the detective said.

As an international student, we know you have a lot of questions. We thought that the following list of questions that we are asked frequently by international students that have come before you, might help answer some things you were wondering about. If you have a question that is not listed below, please let us know so we can help aid you in your college search process.
Do you offer any graduate programs (Masters, Ph.D., etc.?)
Colby-Sawyer College does not offer graduate programs of any kind, as we are a strictly undergraduate institution of higher learning.
What documents do you require for admission?
We require the following documents to complete your application for admission:
The Common Application (fee waived if you apply online), available at www.commonapp.org
Essay/writing sample
Letter of recommendation (from a teacher that has had you in their classroom, or an academic counselor that you have worked with)
TOEFL, IELTS or SLEP scores (we will also accept an SAT or ACT score in place of the TOEFL, IELTS or SLEP)
High School Transcripts in English
*if you are a transfer student, we require your college transcripts. If you enroll at Colby-Sawyer, we ask for you to complete a translation by WES (the World Education Service.) We also require a Dean's Recommendation Letter.
What is your TOEFL institution code?
Our TOEFL institution code is 3281.
What is the minimum TOEFL or IELTS score you require for admission?
We look for a 71 ibt (internet based test) or a 500 paper test score on the TOEFL, or a 5.5 on the IELTS.
Do you accept other standardized test scores besides the TOEFL or IELTS?
We can also use SAT, ACT, or SLEP scores. We are simply looking to assess your English Language Proficiency to make sure that we can better serve you as a student here on campus.
Do you offer ESL courses on campus?
At this time we do not offer any ESL courses on campus. Colby-Sawyer is partnered with two ESL programs: House of Tutors Learning Centers in Austin, Texas and Columbia West College in Los Angeles, California.
Can I receive college credit for taking University of Cambridge A-Level exams?
Yes! If you have taken A-Level Cambridge International Exams, we require your scores to be sent directly from the University of Cambridge. You will need to fill out a Certifying Statement Application Form 7 and mail this to University of Cambridge. Having scores sent to Colby-Sawyer is a requirement in order to register for courses at CSC. This is NOT required at the application stage but AFTER you have enrolled and deposited at CSC. Students who have taken A-Level courses or similar exams through another examination board please contact firstname.lastname@example.com to verify what forms are needed.
Will I be matched with a host family?
You will be matched with a Friendship Family-a local family that will be a great source of support for you, especially during your first year at Colby-Sawyer College. This family may show you around the area, invite you over for dinner from time to time, take you shopping and include you in some of their activities. It is a nice way to informally learn a little more about American culture. All deposited students will be matched with a local family using the request form.
As an international student am I eligible for scholarships?
Yes. International students are eligible for the same scholarships that our domestic students are. Some scholarships are automatically given at the time of admission if a student qualifies, while others require an application (and carry a deadline component.) For a complete list of scholarships and more information about qualifications for the scholarships, visit this link.
Are international students eligible for financial aid?
Colby-Sawyer is a need-aware in the admissions process. The college gives a significant amount in scholarships and grants to international students. In addition to these, international students are able to fill out and apply for further aid through the Supplemental Financial Information Form. Students should know Colby-Sawyer does not meet full need.
What is the average financial aid package/cost for an international student?
This really varies from student to student depending on the aforementioned factors. However, we expect that on average, international students will contribute approximately $15,000 USD toward their education per year, plus books, health insurance, personal expenses and transportation expenses. All other things are included in the cost (food, housing, most social events, etc.) This cost may be more or less again, depending on each individual student as well as aid budgets for that given year in which a student is applying for aid. It is important not to compare your aid with other student awards. Financial aid is based on personal and individual family circumstances and varies, sometimes greatly, among students.
Are international students able to work on campus?
In some circumstances, students can work on campus, but we do not guarantee jobs on campus and you should not plan on working on campus when financially preparing to fund your study. Employment is strictly controlled by the U.S. Government. Some offices, including Admissions, dining services and a few others on campus have budgets which allow them to pay international students to work. Jobs are limited and are dependent upon skills that each student brings forward.
Where is your campus located?
We are located in New London, New Hampshire, in the beautiful Dartmouth/Lake Sunapee Region of the state. We are in a portion of the United States called New England. Colby-Sawyer is in a small, rural town that is surrounded by the lakes and mountains-it is very picturesque. We are approximately 90 minutes from the city of Boston, an hour from the city of Manchester, New Hampshire and about 5 hours drive time from New York City. For more information about our location, please visit our directions page.
How many international students do you have on campus currently?
We have just under 120 international students on campus out of 1,400 total students. The incoming class of 2016 has 44 international student members.
Where do some of your international students come from?
Our students come from many diverse corners of the world. Students from over 30 countries attend Colby-Sawyer. To name just a few of the countries represented: Romania, Rwanda, Paraguay, Ecuador, Afghanistan, Ghana, China, Japan, Vietnam, Malaysia, India, Nepal, Sweden, France, Germany and more!
How do I get to the Colby-Sawyer campus?
There are two airports to choose from: Manchester Boston Regional Airport (which is located in Manchester, N.H.; about an hour drive from campus,) and Boston Logan International Airport (which is located in the city of Boston, Massachusetts; about one and a half hours drive from campus.)
For more information on Manchester Boston Regional Airport click here.
For more information on Boston Logan International Airport click here.
Students are responsible to get themselves to campus, or at least within a few miles of campus, so we typically recommend that students fly into Boston and arrange for taking a bus to a stop that is 3 miles from campus where someone can arrange to pick students up at reasonable times of day. The bus is called Dartmouth Coach. Otherwise, some students may use driving services by car, but that tend to be quite expensive. We recommend the bus option. If you want to do a car service from one of the two airports, let us know and we can tell you which services students have used in the past.
What is the town and surrounding area like?
The local town is very quaint and students can walk to small shops, restaurants and other unique things. It is a rural area and very picturesque with views of the mountains from our campus, several lakes locally and the area itself is very clean and safe. To learn more about our area, please visit the New London Area Chamber of Commerce site at www.lakesunapeenh.org.
What is the weather like in New London, NH?
New Hampshire is known for its beautiful four seasons. In the months of fall, it is typical to see relatively warm days and cool nights. Fall is known for its beautiful foliage season, where the leaves erupt into bright, bold and beautiful colors. These months are September- early November. The average temperatures range from 55-75 degrees Fahrenheit. Late November, it begins to get cold and we do get snow in New Hampshire typically through March. Average winter temperatures range from 35 degrees Fahrenheit to occasionally below zero. We do offer free skiing at a local mountain and winter sports can be very fun. Spring is splendid where flowers and trees begin to bloom again and the weather begins to get warmer. Average temperatures for spring range from 35 degrees up to even 75 degrees Fahrenheit or warmer. Summer is truly spectacular with the lakes here for swimming, boating and so on. Average temperatures range from 70-90 degrees Fahrenheit.

I Love TNA they have become a dominant player. If u watch from when they 1st started, Its almost like when Wcw & Ecw "Invaded" the WWF A while back. They got originals. But not like how long The Undertaker has been in WWE but its getting there.
can't wait to watch this in the uk on wednesday on challengetv
I'm so happy to see people actually excited for this ppv and praising TNA. Such a huge change from the past 10 years.
@Trevor Me too
Same. It makes me happy to see all the haters squirm and crawl to TNA because they miss actual wrestling.

I know there are a ton of FAFSA threads, but just wondered if anyone had already gotten their W-2, done their taxes, and updated the FAFSA. Bear with me as I ask a stupid question b/c I'm running to an interview and don't have time for searching past threads... After my initial FAFSA submission, what do I need to do outside of correct the numbers when I've finished my taxes?

When someone mentions street art, you instantly think of cities like New York, London, Tokyo and Barcelona, not the sleepy rural village of Street in Somerset, England. However, that is exactly where one of the most exciting contemporary art shows in the UK is currently taking place.
Street is home to the Atkinson Gallery, who's mandate is to promote and support young aspiring artists, whilst also bringing art of an international calibre to the South West Region of England. They have previously hosted works from Andy Warhol, Gillian Ayres and Bert Irvin but for their latest exhibition "Natural Selection" they have turned to the renowned Elms Lesters Painting Rooms in London to put together a show which features the work of some of the biggest artists on the scene, including Adam Neate, Jose Parla, Phil Frost, Boris Tellegen (DELTA), Anthony Lister, James Marshall aka DALEK, Futura, Mark Dean Veca, Ron English, Stash, and WK Interact. Check out the images of the works on show below, the exhibition runs until 12th December and if you are in the South of England its definitely worth a trip to check out.
It's fantastic to see these artists exhibiting in a provincial gallery outside of a big city. Only a few years ago their work was seen as mere graffiti art and a novelty in galleries, but given this chance their work has made a real emotional connection with both collectors and art lovers alike and is now accepted as part of the fine art scene and exhibitions welcomed in out of the way places, more know for galleries presenting scenic water colours than abstract, street inspired canvases.

MASSENA - Emmanuel Congregational UCC will hold a Blue Christmas Service at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at 39 West Orvis St., Massena. You ask why blue? Certainly you have experienced what some call the blues at one time or another in your life. Christmas time is a season when not everyone feels cheerful or even joyful. Coping with the death of a loved one, facing your first holiday season after a recent divorce or loss of a job, living with chronic illness or pain, clinical depression or battling a disease such as cancer all make holiday parties and festivities painful for many in our congregation and surrounding communities.
They invite you to join in a time of worship to recognize those parts of our lives that make Christmas a bittersweet time of year. This worship offers a time to remember both persons and events that have been a part of our lives in the past, but are now changed or gone.
Thousands of readers like you have made Northern New York Newspapers the number one ranked website* for local news and sports coverage in the north country.

BARRINGTON ŌĆō Billy Andrade has spent most of his time playing the role of good host at the CVS Caremark Charity Classic. Come Tuesday morning, the Bristol native will look to make a surge that will enable him to capture the $1.55-million tournament he co-hosts with fellow Rhode Islander Brad Faxon.
Andrade and playing partner Bill Haas teamed up to fire an 11-under 60 Monday, a mark that left the duo tied for second along side popular PGA Tour stars Rickie Fowler and Bubba Watson. Both groups sit one shot behind the pace set by another notable tandem as Bo Van Pelt and Steve Stricker turned in a scorecard that featured a robust minus-12 59, a mark that equals the second-lowest, single-round at the CVS, now in its 15th year.
Andrade and Haas earned contending status after closing MondayŌĆÖs round with five consecutive birdies. All of the birdies were credited to Hass, but it was AndradeŌĆÖs four on the par-five, 538-yard No. 11 that helped kick start what proved to be a birdie fest at Rhode Island Country Club.
Andrade had a share of the lead after Day 1 of last yearŌĆÖs CVS Classic. He and Faxon ended up tied for fifth and five strokes behind winners Morgan Pressel and Jay Haas. Andrade and Bill Haas, who notched an eagle on the par-five, 516-yard 8th, will be part of the next-to-last group on Tuesday, the foursome also including Pressel and Jay Haas, who sit in fourth place following MondayŌĆÖs nine-under 62.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖve come close, but I havenŌĆÖt finished it off,ŌĆØ said the 49-year-old Andrade, who was responsible for one of the three skins that netted $25,000 on Monday (the others belonged to Bill Haas and Michael Thompson). ŌĆ£Maybe (Tuesday) will be our lucky day.ŌĆØ
The final foursome that tees off at 9:40 Tuesday morning will not be lacking in star power. A good-sized gallery figures to follow around Watson-Fowler and Van Pelt-Stricker, which could prove a blessing in disguise to those groups getting out on the course ahead of them.
Ranked 11th in the latest World Golf Rankings, Stricker certainly enjoyed his first-ever jaunt around RICC. He birdied the first two holes before giving way to Van Pelt, who added a birdie on No. 8. Stricker, who has his 14-year-old daughter Bobbi Maria serve as his caddy, contributed four more birdies on the back nine, a side that proved favorable to those in the mix heading into the second and final day.
ŌĆ£We got to (minus-nine) and had three holes left and Steve said, ŌĆśLetŌĆÖs see if we can birdie two of these last three.ŌĆÖ He rolled in a nice putt on 16 and we wound up (birding) the last three,ŌĆØ said Van Pelt, who like Stricker is making his CVS tournament debut after playing in the Pro-Am event earlier in his career.
Added Stricker, ŌĆ£You can be aggressive when you have a partner like Bo.ŌĆØ
As for Fowler and Watson, the latter joked that he carried the day, which he did to a degree with five birdies, two of which materialized on the final two holes.
ŌĆ£For a Tour spot, this would be one of the easiest spots compared to some of the other tournament sites we see week-to-week,ŌĆØ said Watson when asked about Rhode Island Country Club. ŌĆ£There would be a lot of birdies, which was the case today.ŌĆØ
The first group tees off at 9 oŌĆÖclock Tuesday morning.

Almay Liquid Lip Balm for Summer 2013
Almay Liquid Lip Balm is a newly launched glossy lip balm treatment with a conditioning formula that recently launched in drugstores for Summer 2013.
I found the display at Harmons recently and it appears there are eight or ten shades of the lip balm available.
Have a look at some more photos after the jump!
I've actually been testing these this week so expect my review later on today. These promise the moisture of a lip balm but the color and shininess of a gloss. The chubby little tubes are pretty cute aren't they? I didn't really count the shades but there are about eight or ten shades, three of which I purchased for myself.
Anyone try these yet?
Do share I'd love to hear your thoughts on them!
Keep your eyes peeled for displays at drugstores now!
5/2/13 9:48 Sara:
Count me curious! Can't wait for the review!
5/2/13 9:50 Christina:
I saw these at Harmon's too, but decided against getting any. With the exception of their make-up remover pads and the liquid eyeshadow/primer (I know you didn't like them but I do and use them as a base for powder eyeshadows), I find Almay a disappointment. IMO it's the cheap version of Revlon.
5/2/13 9:56 Christina:
It's funny you purchased three because I had three colors that I really like in my hand and then said "nah". Your review, however, may sway my opinion. Sigh. With great power comes great responsibility, Muse.
5/2/13 10:05 Susan K:
Can't remember the last time I bought any Almay makeup, been using the remover pads forever though. These do look intriguing. Will be purchasing!
5/2/13 12:24 Seagulls:
I'll probably bite because I'm like that. Just not Pink Pout. Ick.
I just do not get Kate Hudson.
5/3/13 16:36 Olivia:
These look interesting!

As of Monday, August 12, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
ALBANY — The Dougherty County Kiwanis Club is looking to gain more exposure with its new and improved website.
The homepage of the site, www.kiwanisdoco.org, currently includes summaries and photos of previous meetings as well as links that take people to information about the club, a listing of its board of directors for the coming year, a calendar of events to be updated as they are scheduled, information on how to get in touch with the club, club bulletins from March of this year onward and a collection of photos from recent events or projects.
There is also a link giving more information on Kiwanis International, as well as a link to the club's Twitter feed. There is soon expected to be information posted on a project the club is currently involved with known as "ELIMINATE" — a cause aiming to eradicate maternal and neonatal tetanus — as well as updates on the club's fundraising efforts for that project.
Casey Perkins, a member of the club who has been working on the site for roughly a year, said that there are a number of "holes" still left on the website that he is calling for members of the club to help him fill.
"With publicity, the one thing we try to do is draw on the new website," he said.
Part of this, he said, will include members taking photos over the coming months of things they are doing in the community in representation of Kiwanis and submitting them to go on the club's website, as well as its Facebook page.
Perkins said he is also hoping to give the individual club members exposure while providing the public a chance to learn about the organization as well as increase club's membership. There is a link on the website that members have been asked to go to so that they can fill out a survey asking questions such as: "Why did you choose to join DOCO Kiwanis instead of other civic clubs?" or "What is your favorite DOCO Kiwanis service project?"
"I will feature a member each month over the year so that people who don't know they are in the club will see it (and possibly consider joining)," he said. "… There are so many civic organizations in town. There is not a lot of information on why to choose us."
Overall, Perkins said that the new site was simpler and smaller than it was before.

Lesson Plan
Napping House Lesson Plan
- Grades: PreK–K, 1–2
About this book
- The Napping House by Audrey Wood
Set Up and Prepare
Tell the students that you are going to read the book twice. The first time you will read the words and they can help when they can. The second time you and the students will talk about the illustrations.
Encourage the students to read along with the repetitive text. Go back through the book page by page and have the students comment on what they notice, find the flea and other changes in each picture. Talk about how the colors change throughout the book. Why do they change? Call attention to how the perspective of the illustrations change. Notice how the angle of the chair changes so that it appears that the illustrator must be looking down from the ceiling.
Lesson Extensions
The students could make a list of the adjectives in the story.
The students could create a book using the pattern of the text in the story. What would their story be like if it was a napping motorhome . . . a napping tent . . . a napping treehouse . . . a napping barn? Using watercolors students could paint pictures using the warm and cool colors of the story. Using a computer with GarageBand, the students could record a podcast of their book.

Teen Dies in Hit-and-Run in Las Vegas
On Sunday an apparent hit-and-run accident in Las Vegas resulted in the death of a 17-year-old female pedestrian. She was found in the center travel line by other drivers. At this time there are no leads as to who may have caused the collision. If anyone is arrested for the incident, he/she may face the Nevada crime of hit-and-run. This incident is Las Vegas's 26th traffic-related death so far in 2013.
Fleeing the scene of an accident in Nevada qualifies as the Nevada crime of hit-and-run irrespective of whether the person fleeing caused the accident. Everyone involved in an accident has the duty to exchange information and potentially render aid and even file an accident report. The information drivers must exchange include names, addresses, vehicle registration numbers, and driver license information (upon request by the other driver).

In my experience the horse usually lets you know or it becomes apparent due to health etc. I knew someone who had a 30 year old gelding they tried to retire because of his age. He went pretty stir crazy sitting in a pasture and was perfectly happy to resume his normal trail riding routine. I had a 28 year old mare that was still running barrels on occasion. She'd even win every now and again. She was ridden several times a week until her unexpected death and never slowed down. She put those younger horses in their place when it came to barrels and poles.
My thoroughbred gelding was retired from riding at 24 but that was mostly due to some health issues. (dropped fetlocks, tendon issues, suspected DSLD, major weight issues, etc etc) If he's sound and game for it I wouldn't be worried about it.

text: http://forum.xda-developers.com – Will flashing a ROM with less than 100% battery harm anything? My wife's phone is still having issues with the NEWsense rom after getting a new battery from sprint. I flashed NEWsense while the phone was charging, at the time of the flash it was at roughly 45%. When charging, it will say it's charged to 100%, but after 3 hours of light use with wifi on, it's down to 27% already. Is this something the battery calibration option in the NEWsense control panel would fix? Or is wiping battery stats the best way? I could always charge to 100%, then re-flash the rom. I guess I'm just lost (HowTos)

Based on the award-winning Vapor Trail pack, Granite Gear creates the Alpine Vapor Technical Pack.
The Alpine Vapor uses the Vapor Trail suspension, but is built with High Tenacity 210 denier Cordura throughout the pack and High Tenacity 420 Cordura on the bottom to stand up to the punishment of life on the rocks. Granite Gear also added a Hypalon crampon patch to the front, tool loops to the belt, and a fixed Voile-style cinch system to secure ice axes to the pack.
2 lb 10 oz
3600 in3
Granite Gear also introduces two ski packs.
The Pileus is an 1800 in3 pack with internal pockets to hold shovel handles, skins, and probes; and a padded external pocket for a shovel blade. Together with its hydration-compatible sleeve, you can secure all the backcountry gear. The Pileus is built using a high-density polyethylene frame and padded harness system, the same one used in the Vapor Trail pack.
2 lb 13 oz
The Quick Quiver (Q2) 1000 in3 pack has a narrow top and wide base, creating a shelf that allows skis to be easily strapped in without removing the pack from the back. Hypalon lashing straps prevent skis from slipping. The main body has a large compartment with pockets capable of stowing shovel handles, skins, probes, extra layers, and food supplies. The Q2 also uses a high-density polyethylene frame and padded harness system.
2 lb 8 oz
Both ski packs are made with high-tenacity 210-denier fabric with Cordura for abrasion-resistant protection and durability. Water-repellent YKK matte zippers are used to keep snow and ice from getting inside the pack.

Back to the Future Part II might just be my favorite of the trilogy. If nothing else, it was the ballsiest of the three. A movie so bizarre and so unbridledly over-the-top that it could've very easily been laughed at for all the wrong reasons. I've seen the movie a million times, but was only recently struck by how strange it is. Between the holographic Jaws, the futuristic pizza and some pretty suspect ideas about how to make actors look different with makeup, the movie's strength of spirit somehow made everything weird about it work.
My favorite scenes are too numerous to type in a small space, but very high on the list is that quick shot of Marty McFly window shopping at 2015's antique shop, Blast from the Past. It was a fun moment in 1989, but the passage of time has made it all the sweeter.
(Click here for a closer look!)
If you'll recall, Blast from the Past is where Marty picked up the dreaded sports almanac. In effect, there wouldn't have been much of a movie without this antique shop there to mess things up.
The gag was that the "antiques" of 2015 were mostly things we knew as current. And most of the items were current… in 1989. Over twenty years later, and now they're antiques for real. Most of the crud behind that glass is being gobbled up on eBay at this precise moment.
Much to our chagrin, Marty only stands there for a few seconds. This is what I call an "always-pause moment." You know the type. You do it during key shots of the "senate scene" from The Phantom Menace. You do it when Paul Reubens puts on the "headlight glasses" in Pee-wee 's Big Adventure. This is just another of those movie moments that can't be fully appreciated in real-time. Thank God for the pause button.
Below: A breakdown of Blast from the Past's best junk!
I won't explain all of these things, because try as I might, there just isn't a lot to say about Perrier. Instead, let's focus on the big ticket items.
You may remember the Talking Roger Rabbit doll — even if you've never seen one in person. It's all because of the doll's television commercial, which painted its cast of kids as hare-hating maniacs who just could not stop beating on poor Roger Rabbit. Who could forget that? Roger's inclusion here was a gag within a gag, since Robert Zemeckis directed this movie and that movie.
The Jaws Nintendo game is my favorite "antique" of all. That was among my guiltiest video game pleasures. A terrible and indefensible game that I secretly had so much fun with. It was frustrating as frick when you played it the right way, but if you just pretended it was some sort of "virtual diving excursion" with a sidebar of shark danger, it was actually kind of pleasant.
I don't know what that "Jaws 2" thing behind it is supposed to be, though. VHS copy? Novelization? A dummied-up Nintendo box for a game that never existed, just to screw with the 1989 version of me? (Trust me, it did.)
You'll notice a second Nintendo game on the bottom row – BurgerTime. I can't recall ever playing that on the Nintendo; my BurgerTime experiences were limited to the much shoddier Atari 2600 version. "Mr. Hot Dog" did not translate well on the 2600. Ever see a red square? That was Mr. Hot Dog.
There are also some high-end electronics in the mix, including a computer and a video camera. I don't know anything about the computer, but I'm pretty sure that that's the exact video camera my parents once owned. Me and my friends used to film talk shows on that thing, along with the occasional sci-fi epic starring me as the Beetlejuice-masked villain. (I was called "Emperor Guillotine." The Johnny Sokko tributes didn't end there.)
You can fill in the blanks on the rest, but I should point out that you can still buy lava lamps just like the one shown above. Aside from milk dispensers in the shapes of lactating breasts, they're the best reason to go to Spencer's.
Of course, Grays Sports Almanac was the #1 best item sold at Blast from the Past. It caused a lot of trouble, but Marty still had the right idea. Who among us hasn't sat around dreaming up totally impossible and borderline magical ways to make money? Having access to fifteen years' worth of future sports results seemed like such a safe, can't-lose opportunity.
Even if you didn't want to tempt fate with bets influenced by forces of the future, the book was still worth owning. Check out that sleek silver cover! It was like the DeLorean in magazine form!
Let's end this with a survey, admittedly because I can't come up with any better way to end this.
Disqualifying the sports almanac because it's way too obvious, let's say you could zip to 2015 and pick ONE ITEM from Blast from the Past's window display. What will you go home with? (And if you spot something behind the window that I didn't specifically mention, yeah, that's fair game too.)
Also new today: I'm selling Mumm-Ras!

Willis Family Equestrian Center Phase I Dedication - 10/20/2006
Email Coach White: firstname.lastname@example.com
Ellen White just ended her seventh season as Baylor's head equestrian coach. White has led the program to six straight Varsity Equestrian National Championship appearances, including a third place overall finish in 2012. As the Hunter Seat coach, she coached the team to the 2012 National title after finishing third in 2011, its previous best finish. After placing eighth in 2006 and 2007, she led the Bears to a program-best sixth in 2008. White, an internationally recognized dressage trainer, was selected as the first head coach in the history of Baylor's women's equestrian program in 2005.
White led her squad to its first ever Big 12 Championship in 2010, defeating Texas A&M for the title during the four-team tournament.
Baylor finished its fourth full season of competition in 2009 with a great amount of success, including a program-best finish in Hunt Seat at the VENC, which BU hosted for the fourth consecutive year. Baylor's hunter seat team posted its best-ever finish (fifth), while the Western squad placed seventh at the Heart O' Texas Fair Complex. The Bears' previous best finishes were sixth in 2008 while the Western squad was fifth in 2007. On Feb. 24, 2009, the Bears had another program first after garnering a No. 1 ranking in the Women's Intercollegiate Equestrian National Coaches Poll.
The school's equestrian team began its first year of competition with the 2005-2006 academic year. Under White's guidance Baylor posted its first head-to-head win in program history against South Dakota State; the program went on to go 3-2 in head-to-head shows. During the fall, White led Baylor to its first- ever top finish in IHSA competition as the English team tied for first with Oklahoma State at Texas A&M's 2005 English IHSA show in November. Year two and three saw the team finish eighth in the Varsity Equestrian National Championships.
White joined the Baylor staff from Waco's Willow Spring Farm, which she has owned and managed for the past 25 years. She is involved in all phases of the farm's operation: breeding, buying and selling horses, and providing training and lessons in both dressage and jumping. White also serves as an instructor for the American Pony Club Association & Junior Young Rider throughout the Lone Star state.
In April 2006, an F-1 tornado destroyed White's home as well as barns, horse stalls, sheds and Baylor's show arena, leaving the equestrian program's facilities inoperable. In a coincidence of events, Baylor's Board of Regents had approved construction just a week earlier of the Willis Family Equestrian Center which would include a covered arena with stalls, a barn, fenced in paddocks and an office building housing staff offices, locker rooms, training rooms and meeting rooms. Phase one of the project shows competion of the covered arena with stalls, barn, fenced in paddocks and an office building housing staff offices. Phase two of the project is slated to being in the near future.
Still training with internationally known clinicians and Olympians, White was awarded U.S. Dressage Federation silver (1992) and gold (1999) medals, captured Selle Francais Horse of the Year honors three times (1992, 1993 and 1994) and won USDF Horse of the Year honors in 1993. White received qualifying scores for the U.S. Olympic Festival and Pan American Games, and she also was invited to qualify for the U.S. Olympic team in dressage.
"I wish Ellen well," said Mary D'Arcy O'Connell, coach of the 2000 and 2004 Irish Olympic 3-day event team. "She is a very positive and encouraging person. I believe she will be a great addition to the Baylor family."
In addition to her outstanding competition record, White's farm has won numerous breeding awards. A 17-year host to Oldenburg/ISR inspections, White's horses have received national awards including Meshach (2nd place Oldenburg/ISR Mature Stallion) and Ominous (2nd place USDF Yearling Filly Awards). Her stallion Caleb earned the 2004 reserve champion award for the ISR 100-day Stallion Test.
A 1981 Baylor graduate (Bachelor of Arts in economics/journalism), White and her husband of 27 years, Greg, reside in Waco and have two children: Cara White Clark, 23, of Atlanta, Ga., and Shelby, 21. The Whites are active members of Waco's Columbus Avenue Baptist Church. White has spent 16 years as a children's supervisor in Bible Study Fellowship and six years as a substitute teaching leader.
Women's equestrian is the Big 12's fastest-growing sport with teams added at Texas A&M, Oklahoma State and Kansas State since 1999. The Big 12 Conference, beginning in 2009, added equestrian as a league sport.

JDK 6u14 almost ready at b05; Making Java load faster and lighter
Oracle and Sun: Some good news, and "praising the ponytail"
First article: Oracle brass coax Sun troops with tough love. Some initial (although vague) commitments to the future of Sun technologies and products. Greatest news is that Java will remain an open platform. Bad news is that Sun's new cloud initiative may be uninteresting for Oracle.
Oracle and JavaFX: Should I Stay or Should I Go?
Most of Sun stuff will be very useful to Oracle.
JavaFX Balls v2.0: Better benchmarking, Mobile support
In a previous blog entry I described JavaFX Balls, the bubblemark benchmark for JavaFX 1.0. Now I took some time to improve the benchmark and also make a Mobile version!
JavaFX 1.1 released, some first impressions
Downloads here. If you already have NetBeans 6.5, just check for plugin updates (53Mb of download).
Main highlights, from the Release Notes and some findings:
Here comes JDK 6u14
Get it here while it's hot; check the Release Notes, pretty long one btw, 204 bugs and that's just b01. Update 14 is going to be a massive update, not in the same ballpark of 6u10, but still. (6u13 will be just an SSR.)
Sun JDK 6u12 released, good for both Swing and JavaFX
The release is available here.
JavaFX: First programming (and performance) impressions
To learn JavaFX, I used my favorite method of playing with other people's code. I picked JavaFX Balls: the JavaFX version of the Bubblemark RIA benchmark.
Clearing the Java FX FUD
Java FX vs. Swing
Ten Questions for Java FX
Kudos to all the Sun hackers involved in this project. You overcame a large amount of negative expectations, perhaps because Sun announced FX too early or because Java SE was in discredit as a RIA platform (6u10 was already a major step to fix that). But I was pleasantly impressed with the FCS.

Man on larceny charge to know fate
A man who felt that an open door was an invitation for entry into someone else's home will know his fate on June 14 when he is scheduled for sentencing.
On Friday, when the matter was called up in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court, the accused, Tevin 'Brown Man' Larman, pleaded guilty to larceny from the dwelling.
The court was told that on Tuesday, May 20, Larman stole $5,000, a bicycle and a Samsung cell phone from the home of the complainant.
Senior Resident Magistrate Judith Pusey asked Larman, "Why did you go in di people dem house?" And he said, "I saw the door open".
Larman further stated that he only took the phone and $2,000.
When asked where they were, he said, "I have somebody watching them".
The courtroom erupted in laughter.
RM Pusey then instructed Larman to tell the police where the items were.
He was then further remanded and a fingerprint order was made.
