How to Find a House to Rent That Allows Pets
Your pets are part of your family, but not every landlord wants them around. After all, they can be loud, pesky, dirty, and even destructive. However, using your time efficiently and negotiating can help you land your perfect home.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Check the real estate listings for the area where you want to live. Check online, local newspapers, real estate publications, and anywhere else you can think of that might have rental listings. The more options you have, the better your chances of finding a pet-friendly rental.
2Pick out all of the listing that appeal to you based on your other criteria for a new home.
3Cross out any entries that specifically state "no pets". Circle any that are pet friendly.
4Visit places that advertise as being pet-friendly first. If you find a home you like, it will save you the time and worry of having to negotiate over having a pet in your rental home.
5If you cannot find a pet friendly rental that you like, start looking at other places. If you like the place, talk with the landlord a bit to let him or her know that you are interested. Then bring up the pet.
6Answer any questions your potential landlord has honestly. Don't say that your pet is good with kids, housebroken, or quiet if that isn't the case.
7If the landlord immediately says no, you may want to ask why. The landlord could have unfounded concerns about certain pet issues, such as smell or noise, which may not be a problem with your pet. If they do have a good reason, or they continue to insist that they will not rent to someone with pets, don't push it.
8If the landlord agrees to it, arrange to have him or her meet your pet. Do this in a setting where your pet is comfortable. This will allow you to show off how well behaved your pet is.
9Look online for a pet rider to add on to your rental agreement. Show it to your potential landlord and go over it together. Make any alterations either of you feel are needed. This will provide a legal framework for having your pet live in the rental property.
10If you find a place where you can rent with your pet, be responsible! Remember how hard it can be to find a pet friendly rental. Abide by the agreement you made with your landlord and take responsibility for your pet.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- If you are really stuck in your search for a pet friendly rental, try contacting a local animal welfare group. They may be able to point you towards some pet friendly renters or help you negotiate with a landlord who is on the fence about your pet.
- If you own an exotic pet or a dog breed that's considered "dangerous" and are moving to a different area, make sure your pet is legal in your new state or town.
- Remember that you and your pet are ambassadors. The way you act could determine whether or not other pet owners are allowed to rent from this landlord. Take full responsibility for making your pet a good member of the community.
- A poorly behaved pet is a tough case to make to any landlord. Make sure you can trust your pet to be neat, friendly, and relatively quiet.
- Be nice to your neighbors, especially if you live in an apartment complex or multi-family home. A neighbor who finds you loud, messy, or inconsiderate may decide that complaining about your pet is the quickest way to get you evicted. Make sure your neighbors know they can come to you with any problems, pet related or not.
- If you have rented before and your pet behaved well, see if you can get a letter of recommendation from your previous landlord.
- Be very clear when talking to your landlord about your situation. You may find that "pet friendly" does not include "cockatoo prone to loud vocalizations at 6 AM" or "9 foot (2.7 m) long constrictor".
- Never try to sneak a pet into a rental home that doesn't allow pets. If caught, you may find yourself evicted and looking for a pet friendly rental once more.
- Don't try to get your pet into a rental advertised as "no pets". This is more than likely a waste of everyone's time.

I propose an additional, alternative, game type, here is the description.Instead of counting kills to switch to the next stage, we could turn it into something the squad can buy. Let me explain.We could have a "squad money/evo bank" that must contain a certain quantitative of money/evos to switch to the next stage; but this bank should be filled with voluntary donation by each player.This is the news: people will have 2 choices: use the money for themselves and buy equipment/evolve, or donate them to the "squad bank" to help their team reach the next stage. In my opinion, this additional modality would avoid counting a goon-vs-naked-marine-kill just like a naked-marine-vs-tyr (+1 to next stage), which is a little unfair, and would add a easy way to teamwork.Well, at least I hope you'll find this original

I was wondering when fully updating Tremulous with your ideas and fixing bugs and stuff... how about making it to Tremulous 2.0?? With a brand new engine of course. The best ones would be (atleast I think) Crysis: Sandbox or Half Life 2... I know what you 're thinking: Crysis engine is way too hardware-demanding! Thats why I added HL2: It's moddable (maps and models) and would look great ^^! Altough I love the game just the way it is it's just an idea... the HL2 isn't tooo demanding and if u decide to go trough with it then add a poll on how many ppl play Tremulous on uberly rigged machines (for Crysis) or just go down with the tradition and go with Id Tech 4 ^^ anyways nothing much just a proposal!

Quote from: Hendrich on August 23, 2008, 12:02:15 AMblahThere are quite a few other opensource quake based engines out there including Dark Places and Xreal, and non quake like cube2 which greatly improve graphics and are somewhat feasible alternatives to the current engine.
Wasn't this thread supposed to be about the website and forum?

Its about being heard and contributing to...why am I talking to a dead account?
Not really worth it, imo. There are like two or three mediocre stories and a horrible "webcomic". They fit just fine in General Discussion.

10 days later... the seatbelt fit.
Thursday, October 03, 2013
I had to fly yesterday for work - 2 flights, actually, there and back for a quick business meeting. The plane that I flew on yesterday morning was the same type of aircraft, with the same airline (Delta), that I'd flown just 10 days earlier when I couldn't get my seatbelt fastened and had to ask for an extender. I hadn't weighed myself in awhile before that flight, so I can't say if I lost any weight in those 10 days. All I know is that my seatbelt fit on both flights yesterday! YES!
On the first flight, it was quite snug, but I even had some wiggle room on the second flight! My goal is, by the time I fly next (most likely vacation at Thanksgiving), that I will not have to even worry about that darn seatbelt fastening!
This week has been throwing me some challenges. I had a strong Monday in my diet and exercise, though I could've pushed myself to exercise more. Tuesday morning, I woke up with a bad headache but still went to work. By 11:00 AM, I felt extremely nauseous and had a pounding migraine. Luckily, I was able to go home and lie down for the rest of the day. As the nausea subsided, I ate healthy at first but then gave into the temptation to have just 1 cookie, which turned into 3 cookies. Excedrin migraine helped my headache go away, but I was not feeling up to exercising. I was pretty down, but I was trying hard to learn from the experience and to not be too down on myself.
Cut to Wednesday, I had to fly to a work meeting and back. At the airport, I didn't plan well and ended up grabbing probably the worst thing for my insulin resistance - a bagel and cream cheese. I ordered a cobb salad at lunch, but I should've ordered one with less meat and cheese, and more veggies. And then the chef sent out to us a huge dessert platter, so I had 3 chocolate-covered strawberries. Oy. But I then ate a healthy apple and nuts for my snack on the plane ride home. Once home, I was wiped out and hungry, but I made myself put on my sneakers and go for a walk, and it did feel good!
Today, I am on track with everything, only I received a surprise invitation from a friend for an off-Broadway opening tonight, along with the after-party. I decided to go, but in order to do that, I'm not going to work late so I can go home and eat an early dinner and change clothes. I brought my sneakers to work and walked for nearly 30 minutes at lunch, which felt great. As for the after-party, I'm sticking to my no alcohol until Thanksgiving, so I'll have water and maybe some food, depending on if there is anything healthy. And I won't stay too late, so I'll still get a good night's sleep.
It's important to me to still be able to go out with friends, have fun, be able to travel for work and pleasure, and live my life while making these lifestyle changes, and this week is certainly testing me in that respect! To hold myself more accountable, I've decided to make my calorie tracker and fitness tracker public on here. I'm going to get more involved in teams on SP as well.

Like others have said, I too would like to see a dlinemen or two. Shortridge, Bailey, and/or maybe Cooper. I'm too lazayy to figure out what we can still potentially add
Its not over until they sign, which they can't yet.

Which i dont understand. Why does basketball get to sign a year before they play and football only 6 months. If they are worried about coaching changes then just let recruits have the option to change committment if a coaching change happens.

The Detroit Lions play the 49ers in San Francisco Sunday night, a game to be seen on WILX channel 10 with kick off at 8:30. Both teams are 1-0 and the 49ers are a touchdown favorite.
The two head coaches had to be separated last year on the turf at Ford Field in Detroit after the 49ers won. But Jim Harbaugh of San Francisco and Jim Schwartz of the Lions say they are long past that incident. And 49ers running back Frank Gore says the 49ers are concerned about the Lions after San Francisco opened with an impressive 30-22 win at Green Bay this last Sunday. Schwartz says no one involved with the game will be thinking about last year's post game theatrics this time around.

How to Mow Lawn and Annoy Others
Friday, July 05, 2013
Okay, okay, in the scheme of all the topics I could blog about this is slightly off center. But, I simply am astounded how others can be so bothered by something so very insignificant. Yard work is one of my passions. Whether is is digging in flower beds, tending to a vegatable garden or mowing the yard I love being in my yard. Great way to relieve stress and get in some exercise, along with Vitamin D.
So anyway, I told the spouse I would mow the yard. No big deal since we have a riding lawn mower. Now understand ... I am what I call a "freestyle" lawn mower type person. There is no fancy patterns. You know ... back and forth lines which are very precise. We all have someone we know, or at least a yard we drive by, where the person mowing the yard appears to have made perfect passes with the lawn mower to the point of appearing to have used a tape measure. That is NOT ME! Hence why I like to say I "free style". I drive in different directions, make spins and circles if I see a patch of grass I missed and generally just do my thing until the grass is cut. Now ... I have never been given any feedback on this until 2 days ago. There is some roadwork nearby resulting in dump trucks driving up and down my road all day. While mowing I see this guy driving by giving me disapproving looks and shaking his head. He even begins to slow down once while I am circling on the mower. Finally, I kid you not, he stops and calls out to me asking if I understand it is better to cut the grass in patterns. What ??? With all the craziness in the world this guy is concerned over how a stranger cuts the grass in her own yard. I thanked him, but explained I was happy to cut grass my way. So ... the rest of the day this guy keeps driving by obviously looking distressed at my lack of pattern on my yard. (Might be a good time to say how I live out in the country on 10 acres. Not sure the neighbors cows even care about how my yard looks :) )
I know there are lots of crazies in the world and people who are uptight about little things, but all I can think is "this poor b*****d". Kids are starving, people dying in wars, unemployed folks everywhere and he is stressed over how I cut my grass.
Suddenly, all of my quirks seem a little less important. Am I going to start worrying about patterns of how my grass looks after it is cut? NOPE! I am outside to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. This is yet one more example of why I do not care about someone else's opinion of who I am, or what I do. My life became much simpler several years ago when I became less self-conscious and more accepting of me. Turning 50 brought with it a freedom and acceptance to be just me.

I agree with you! I free-style too. Why would patterns help the grass grow better? Really???

Hi guys,
I wanted to know if any of you had tried out the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro THX 24-bit External USB Sound Card. Is this little gadget worth it? I'm planning on buying a sager np9130 and I'm wondering if it's going to make a big difference. I usually wear headphones or use my Harman/Kardon Sound Sitcks III (http://www.harmankardon.com/EN-CA/Pr...SOUNDSTICKS3AM). Anyone here owns this device and would care to give his opinion?

One of Sony's big PS Vita and Playstation 3 announcements at Gamescom last week was the Cross Buy promotion. However, Sony Worldwide Studios head Shuhei Yoshida says this promotion is only confirmed in Europe in an interview released on Sunday.
Update: Yoshida cleared the air with the following update regarding Cross Buy in North America with the following quote on Twitter. "PS Vita-PS3 Cross Buy price promo is coming to both Europe and North America," he clarified. "My quote by Famitsu was meant as 'not decided for Japan yet.'"
Original Store:
The Cross Buy initiative gives those who purchase a PS3 version of select games a free downloadable PS Vita copy of the same title. Japanese magazine Famitsu asked Yoshida about the Cross Buy promotion for Japan where he said that the promotion is only confirmed for Europe for now.
This is an interesting stance for Sony and Yoshida to take as the US Playstation Blog promoted the Cross Buy initiative for Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time after Sony's conference at Gamescom. There is one curious omission in the Sly Cooper post though. "Cross Buy" is not written anywhere in the post or in any of the comment replies made by the Sony community managers.
Because of the curious name omission, we can only think that this is a case where Sony has not gotten the "Cross Buy" naming rights finalized in any region outside of Europe. It would certainly seem odd to go through the hassle of making your first and second party developers support such a feature and then limit it to one region.
We expect to see Sony make announcements for the Japanese and North American markets in the coming weeks. We should hope anyway.

On the overturned first down play, I thought I saw a linesman do a bball style block out on CPR and push him back a couple yards after he ran up and pointed at the spot he wanted. I forgot to record the game so I can't check, didn't anybody else see that? Thought it was pretty comical if that's what actually happened.
I sit behind the bench and saw this.

As I'm lazy and have no concept of planning/ food shopping, I almost always buy lunch. If I go to the market my lunches are never more than 6 dollars and are generally more than I can eat (or at last enough to stuff me). One less thing to remember, not much more expensive than bringing my own food, I don't have to make/bring anything and WAY more tasty. Now that my summer student buddy (I used to baby sit him) has gone to university I tend to get some take out, find a nice spot and sit and read a book for an hour. Really helps me unwind in the middle of the day. In fact its time to do that RIGHT NOW.
Once the winter starts I may have to start sitting inside in the main hall of the BCE place on the steps of the old bank facade.

Headley sits out second game
Written by | Bill Center | 6:02 p.m., May 6, 2009
Chase Headley will be sidelined a second straight game Wednesday night at Petco Park as the Padres host Arizona in the opener of a two-game series.
The main attraction is Jake Peavy, who gave up only two hits and a single walk Friday night while blanking the Dodgers for eight innings at Dodger Stadium.
Peavy has dropped two straight decisions to fall to 2-3 while the Padres are 2-4 in his six starts. But the Padres have scored a total of seven runs in those four losses.
Headley hurt his shoulder crashing into the wall Sunday afternoon in Los Angeles. The switch-hitter is available to pinch-hit from the right side Wednesday night.

WASHINGTON – As the weather cools down and gardens shrivel up, food lovers might start to think that their fresh produce options are limited to supermarket wares. This is not necessarily the case, say two local chefs who frequent local year-round farmers markets.
In Dupont Circle and Silver Spring, for example, a wide variety of products are still available despite the changing weather: fruits and vegetables, dairy, meat and charcuterie, poultry, cheese, baked goods, pastries, oysters and crab.
"The late autumn and early winter present some challenges to any shopper because the amount of products start to decrease, however trust your farmers," says Chef Aaron McCloud of Cedar restaurant in Penn Quarter. "They produce some of the best products that you're going to find, so trust what they're selling."
Keep an eye out for butternut and winter squashes, hearty greens, brussels sprouts, sweet carrots, apples and leeks, says Ris Lacoste of RIS restaurant on L Street.
Because last year was so mild, fresh produce was readily available throughout winter and contributed to 17 menu items that consisted primarily of locally grown ingredients, she says.
"When selecting produce over the winter, I'm lucky because I know who to ask," Lacoste says.
For the novice, here are a few simple shopping tips:
Not sure where to find delicious produce in the winter? Several farmers markets are open year-round:

BeingGirl Points - Major Bragging Rights
Back to My Relationships Questions
Dear BeingGirl Experts,
I am 16 and a sophomore in high school. This year I have had the pleasure of meeting a foreign exchange student from Germany. We've become really close and feel deeply about each other. But I don't know what to do. Should we try a long distance relationship, or just cut things off? We really care about each other, but when he goes home, there's going to be a whole ocean of space between us, literally!
Dear Christine,
How lucky you are to know someone, as a friend, from another country and another culture. However, you really can't maintain a "romantic" relationship. This isn't fair to anyone with this kind of distance.
Agreeing to friends is the smart way to send him home!

Top Definition
A sexual act involving a male fucking a female, doggystyle (preferably anally) while she licks his mucus off the toilet seat. The term is correctly applied only when the male has bronchitis, and has simply missed the toilet bowl on one of his many spit-trips to the bathroom. Authenticity is further increased if the male's name is 'Igor', and the female's 'Alia'.
Alia totally caught the slugger from Igor today.

Massachusetts Voters Split Nearly Evenly Over "Death With Dignity" Question
Posted November 5, 2012
Legalizing marijuana use for medical purposes continues to have strong support
The "death with dignity" ballot question faces an uncertain future in the election on Tuesday, while voters appear ready to approve legalizing marijuana use for medical purposes, according to the latest statewide telephone survey from the Western New England University Polling Institute.
The poll of 535 likely voters, conducted in partnership with The Republican newspaper of Springfield, MA and MassLive.com Oct. 26 through Nov. 1, found that 44 percent support allowing terminally ill patients to legally obtain medication to use to end their lives, while 42 percent are opposed. Fourteen percent of likely voters said they did not know or declined to answer the question.
Among all 644 registered voters who completed the survey, 43 percent back the "death with dignity" measure, while 44 percent are opposed. The samples of 535 likely voters and 644 registered voters have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus four percent.
Click here to view complete poll results.
Voters are much more bullish about a ballot question that would legalize the use of marijuana for medical reasons. Sixty-three percent support the idea, while 29 percent are opposed.
Public opinion about the "death with dignity" ballot measure has shifted significantly since the Polling Institute last asked about the issue in a statewide telephone survey conducted May 29-31. Registered voters supported the idea then by a margin of 60 percent to 29 percent.
"With Election Day approaching, as voters have focused on the measure, support has dwindled considerably," said Tim Vercellotti, director of the Polling Institute and a professor of political science at Western New England University. "What seemed like easy passage several months ago is now in question."
Sentiment about the "death with dignity" ballot measure varies by partisanship, age and education. Democrats support the proposal by a margin of 54 percent to 35 percent, while Republicans are opposed 50 percent to 28 percent. Forty-six percent of independent likely voters also oppose the measure, while 40 percent are in favor.
Nearly half of likely voters under the age of 65 back the proposal, while just over one-third of those voters oppose it. Among likely voters ages 65 and older, however, 52 percent are against the measure, while 39 percent favor it.
Support for the "death with dignity" proposal increases by level of education. Only 25 percent of likely voters with a high school diploma or less favor the measure, compared to 44 percent of likely voters with some college and 49 percent of likely voters with college degrees.
Public attitudes also vary by religion and level of religious observance. The Catholic Church in Massachusetts has spoken out strongly against the proposal, and 51 percent of Catholic likely voters say they oppose the measure. The magnitude of the opposition varies among Catholics, however, depending on how frequently they attend religious services. Seventy-six percent of Catholic likely voters who attend services at least once a week or almost every week oppose the proposal, while the same is true of 38 percent of Catholics who attend services about once a month, seldom or never.
A similar divide exists among likely voters who identify themselves as members of Protestant denominations. Half of all Protestant likely voters oppose the "death with dignity" measure. Among Protestants who attend services at least once a week or almost every week, 76 percent are opposed, compared to 36 percent of Protestant likely voters who attend services about once a month, seldom or never.
Likely voters from other religious backgrounds support the proposal by a margin of 54 percent to 25 percent, and voters who identify themselves as atheists or agnostic back the measure by a margin of 90 percent to five percent.
Opinions about legalizing the use of marijuana for medical purposes also vary along the lines of partisanship, age and education. Seventy-three percent of Democrats support the idea, compared to 55 percent of Republicans and independents.
Support also is greater among younger voters. Eighty-six percent of likely voters ages 18 to 34 back the use of marijuana for medical purposes, while the same is true of 64 percent of voters ages 35 to 49, 59 percent of voters ages 50 to 64, and 52 percent of voters age 65 and over.
In terms of education, voters with college degrees were most likely to support legalizing medical marijuana, with 67 percent backing the idea. Fifty-nine percent of likely voters with some college support the measure, and 49 percent of voters with a high school diploma or less back the proposal.
Public sentiment about the issue has not changed significantly since the Polling Institute last measured opinions about medical marijuana in its May 29-31 survey. Sixty-three percent of all registered voters in the latest survey support legalizing medical marijuana, compared to 64 percent of registered voters in the May 29-31 survey.
The Western New England University Polling Institute survey consists of telephone interviews with 685 adults ages 18 and older drawn from across Massachusetts using random-digit-dialing Sept. 28 – Oct. 4, 2012. The sample yielded 644 adults who said they are registered to vote in Massachusetts, and 535 adults who are classified as likely to vote in the Nov. 6, 2012 general election. Unless otherwise noted, the figures in this release are based on the statewide sample of likely voters. The Polling Institute classified likely voters based on voters' responses to questions about interest in the election, likelihood of voting in the election, ability to identify their polling place, and whether they reported voting in the 2008 presidential election.
The Polling Institute dialed household telephone numbers, known as "landline numbers," and cell phone numbers for the survey. In order to draw a representative sample from the landline numbers, interviewers first asked for the youngest male age 18 or older who was home at the time of the call, and if no adult male was present, the youngest female age 18 or older who was home at the time of the call. Interviewers dialing cell phone numbers interviewed the respondent who answered the cell phone after confirming three things: (1) that the respondent was in a safe setting to complete the survey; (2) that the respondent was an adult age 18 or older; and (3) that the respondent was a resident of Massachusetts. The landline and cell phone data were combined and weighted to reflect the adult population of Massachusetts by gender, race, age, and county of residence using U.S. Census estimates for Massachusetts. Complete results of the poll are available online at www.wne.edu/news. The full text of the questionnaire for this survey is available at www1.wne.edu/pollinginst. Complete coverage of the poll by our media partners, The Republican and MassLive.com, can be found at www.masslive.com/politics/.
All surveys are subject to sampling error, which is the expected probable difference between interviewing everyone in a population versus a scientific sampling drawn from that population. The sampling error for a sample of 535 likely voters is +/- 4.2 percent at a 95 percent confidence interval. Thus if 60 percent of likely voters said they support legalizing the use of marijuana for medical purposes, one would be 95 percent sure that the true figure would be between 55.8 percent and 64.2 percent (60 percent +/- 4.2 percent) had all Massachusetts likely voters been interviewed, rather than just a sample. The margin of sampling error for the sample of 644 registered voters is +/- 3.9 percent at a 95 percent confidence interval. Sampling error increases as the sample size decreases, so statements based on various population subgroups are subject to more error than are statements based on the total sample. Sampling error does not take into account other sources of variation inherent in public opinion studies, such as non-response, question wording, or context effects.
Established in 2005, the Western New England University Polling Institute conducts research on issues of importance to Massachusetts and the region. The Institute provides the University's faculty and students with opportunities to participate in public opinion research. Additional information about the Polling Institute is available at www1.wne.edu/pollinginst.

Hand of God
90 minutes
In recent decades, more than 10,000 children reportedly were sexually abused by Catholic priests in the United States. From behind the headlines, filmmaker Joe Cultrera tells the very personal story of how the crisis affected his own family in Salem, Mass. It is the intimate story of how his brother, Paul, was molested in the 1960s by Father Joseph Birmingham, who also reportedly abused nearly 100 other children. Paul Cultrera would keep his secret for 30 years until he decided to finally confront the church and launched his own investigation into how the Archdiocese of Boston had covered up allegations against Father Birmingham and moved the priest from parish to parish, placing more and more children in danger. In a sometimes raw and emotional film, the Cultrera family tells their story of faith betrayed by the scandal that has engulfed the Catholic Church.
Producer(s): Joe Cultrera

Last fall, "The Simpsons" lost a key component of the creative magic that has kept them on the air for over two decades: Marcia Wallace, the voice behind Bart's longtime teacher/nemesis Edna Krabappel passed away. And last week, the creators aired their tribute to the actress during a new episode of the show.
It features her husband Ned Flanders (man, we have not watched this show in a long time) remembering an evening dancing with his late wife, before recalling how much he'll miss her distinctive laugh. It's a short and sweet scene, with a nice little turn from Nelson at the end putting the final touch on it. Watch below and share with us your favorite Krabappel episode—for this writer, it's the season three episode "Bart The Lover," where Bart tricks her into a pen pal romance with a man named Woodrow.

Sure, Sunday tends to be overcrowded with high-end TV, including "Mad Men," "Veep," "The Borgias," "Game of Thrones," "Nurse Jackie" and more, but what to watch the rest of the time? Every Monday, we bring you five noteworthy highlights from the other six days of the week.
"The Big C": Season Premiere
Monday, April 29 at 10pm on Showtime
Laura Linney's Showtime series about a meek housewife who starts opening up to life after she's diagnosed with stage IV cancer has been given a four episode final season to wrap up its story. This limited run bears the name "Hereafter," which suggests that it will focus on Cathy (Linney) dealing with the approaching end of her life -- though the series has always mixed its pathos with a determined sense of warmth and uplift. Oliver Platt, Gabourey Sidibe, John Benjamin Hickey and Phyllis Somerville co-star in these last few episodes.
"Independent Lens": "The Undocumented"
Monday, April 29 at 10pm on PBS
Arriving on PBS just weeks after its world premiere at the 2013 Full Frame Documentary Film Festival, Marco Williams' film looks at the thousands of border crosses who've died in the Sonora Desert since 1998, their deaths a little-publicized consequence of the U.S.'s immigration policies. Filmmaker and NYU professor Williams ("Two Towns of Jasper") centers the feature around Marcos Hernandez, who's searching for his father after he vanished while walking through the Sonora.
"The Americans": Season Finale
Wednesday, May 1 at 10pm on FX
FX's Cold War-era espionage drama about a pair of KGB spies trying to figure out how real their cover marriage has become while carrying out increasingly dangerous missions on behalf of their homeland has turned out to be one of the best new shows on television. It's already been renewed for a second season, so it should be interesting to see what the series sets up for its next arc, as Philip (Matthew Rhys) and Elizabeth (Keri Russell) are ordered to go through with a meeting they suspect could be a set-up, as Stan and the FBI draw ever nearer.
"Parks and Recreation": Season Finale
Thursday, May 2 at 9:30pm on NBC
There's a pretty good chance that NBC will renews "Parks and Rec" after a turmoil-filled year, but keep your fingers crossed for the Pawnees employees anyway as the show wraps up another sweet-natured season. "Are You Better Off?" will find Leslie (Amy Poehler) celebrating her first year as a councilwoman, Andy (Chris Pratt) unretiring Special Agent Burt Macklin, April (Aubrey Plaza) dealing with some major news and Tom (Aziz Ansari) considering a major business opportunity.
"Maron": Series Premiere
Friday, May 3 at 10pm on IFC
Comedian and former Air America host Marc Maron reinvented himself with his "WTF with Marc Maron," a twice-weekly interview show that finds major comedic names opening up about their work and their pasts in ways surprising, rare and compelling. His new life as a podcaster (who's still an active stand-up) provides the source material for IFC's new autobiographical comedy, in which Maron stars as a lightly fictionalized version of himself dealing with personal and romantic issues while recording interviews in his garage with guest stars like Dave Foley and Denis Leary.
Also worth a look: "The Queen of Versailles" makes its TV debut on Bravo on Monday, April 29 at 9pm; "Journey to Planet X," Myles Kane and Josh Koury's doc about a pair of scientists by day who are amateur sci-fi filmmakers by night, has its TV premiere on Epix on Wednesday, May 1 at 8pm; "Manhunt," a nonfiction alternative to the story told in "Zero Dark 30" from director Greg Barker, airs on HBO on Wednesday, May 1 at 8pm; the season finale of "Happy Endings" was pushed back to this week and will wrap with two episodes airing on Friday, May 3rd at 8 and 8:30pm on ABC.

This list of archaeological expeditions which accept volunteers is compiled by the Israel Foreign Ministry as a service to the public. The excavation details below been published by the archaeologists in charge of the individual expeditions, who bear responsibility for their contents.
NOTE: Any questions, comments or requests for additional information must be directed to the contact person indicated for each project, and not to the Israel Foreign Ministry.
Many archaeologists enlist volunteer help on their digs, as volunteers are highly motivated and wish to learn and gain experience, although the work is often difficult and tedious. Usually, no previous experience is necessary. The work includes digging, shovelling, hauling baskets of earth and sherds, cleaning pottery sherds and more. Volunteers are responsible for their own travel arrangements to and from Israel.
Accommodations for volunteers can range from sleeping bags in the field, to rooms in hostels or kibbutzim, to 3-star hotels near a site. Each expedition has its own accommodation arrangements.
There is usually a charge for food and lodging, although on some excavations these are free. All charges listed are in US dollars. Volunteers who require kosher food should inquire in advance. Excavations conducted in or near a city often require volunteers to find their own accommodations.
Volunteers should have comfortable, sturdy clothes for heavy work. Sunhats are absolutely compulsory in summer; warm clothing is suggested for summer evenings as the weather can be cool. Winters are wet and cold; warm clothes and water-proof boots are necessary.
Equipment that may be useful - depending on the conditions at the site and the type of accommodation available - includes work-gloves, sleeping bag, canteen, towels and sunscreen lotion.
The work schedule at an excavation is organized according to the conditions at the site. A day on an average dig begins before dawn and ends after noon. There is normally a rest period after lunch. The afternoons and early evenings may be devoted to lectures, additional excavation work, cleaning and sorting of pottery and other finds, or they may be free.
Some expeditions offer credit courses from sponsoring institutions. Details concering subjects, conditions and cost may be obtained by contacting the expedition director.
Most expedition directors (or other staff members) offer informal lectures covering the history and archaeology of the site and discussion of the type of work involved. Volunteers should feel free to request information regarding an excavation in order to be able to appreciate all aspects of the work.
Recreational facilities (swimming pools, beaches and sporting grounds) may be available, depending on the location of the site. Most expeditions organize sightseeing and field trips to sites in the area and to neighboring museums.
In most cases, volunteers must arrange for medical and accident insurance in advance. Even in instances when accident insurance is provided, it is strongly advised that volunteers come fully insured as the insurance offered is minimal.
When applying to the director of an excavation you should indicate any previous studies you may have in archaeology or related fields, such as anthropology, architecture, geography, surveying, graphic arts; or experience in excavation work, pottery restoration or photography.
For registration, please contact the persons listed in the individual entries. Please note that a registration fee is often required.
Note: Israel Ministry of Interior regulations require that passports of all volunteers (other than Israeli) be stamped with a volunteer visa (B4). This request should be made by the volunteer at the point of entry into Israel.
EXCAVATIONS 2010(Listed by starting date) This is a preliminary list. Additional digs will be added as the information becomes available.
Note: There will be no field excavations at Tel Gezer in 2010. The next excavations will take place June 13 - July 15, 2011.The next excavations at Mount Zion will take place in June/July 2011.
July 4-30
Monday-Friday 5:30am - 12:30 pm: Fieldwork 4:30 pm - 6:30 pm: Lab work and pottery 8:00pm - 9:00pmL Lecture

The Nahal Mahanayeem Outlet is a Mousterian site located at the outlet of the Mahanayeem stream to the Jordan River, some 10 km north of the Sea of Galilee. Numerous animal bones in excellent preservation state were excavated, including the skull and femur of a lion found in-situ in the mud of the Jordan River Bank in 2002. A human (non-Neanderthal) skull fragment was found in one of the piles of dirt dug up by a tractor during the 1999 drainage work. The confirmation of the presence of humans will contribute to the debate over the emergence of modern humans in the Levant and their migration routes out-of-Africa.
July 11 - August 5
Strategically perched above the most important land route in the ancient Near East, the city of Megiddo dominated international traffic for over 6,000 years - from ca. 7,000 BCE to biblical times. As civilizations came and went, succeeding settlements at ancient Megiddo were built on the ruins of their predecessors, creating a multi-layered archaeological legacy that abounds in unparalleled treasures that include monumental temples, lavish palaces, mighty fortifications, and remarkably-engineered water systems. Megiddo's location explains its longevity: it controlled a bottleneck on the Via Maris, the "Way of the Sea," and with it long-distance trade and traffic. The Book of Revelation accords Megiddo a crucial role in the future, promising an eschatological battle there, where the children of light triumph over the forces of evil. Armageddon is literally "the hill of Megiddo."
The Megiddo Expedition is directed by Israel Finkelstein and David Ussishkin (Tel Aviv University), with Eric H. Cline (The George Washington University) serving as Associate Director (USA). The expedition is undertaken under the auspices of Tel Aviv University, in conjunction with The George Washington University as Senior Consortium Member and Loyola Marymount University, Vanderbilt University, and Chapman University as Consortium Members.
Kibbutz Ramat Hashofet. All rooms have private facilities with up to 4 people per room. A limited amount of more basic youth hostel style accommodation at a reduced price suitable for short term participants may be available. Full room and board during workdays (Sunday-Thursday). You are free to stay on the kibbutz for the weekend or take day trips - meals not provided.
3, 6, 9, or 12 Credits from Tel Aviv University:The Educational Program aims to integrate the excavation experience into archaeological theory and into contemporary archaeological and historical knowledge of Megiddo, the Jezreel Valley and the wider region. Field trips are included for registrants.Each course is worth 3 credit hours from Tel Aviv University. Tuition fees are $150 per credit hour, for a total of $450 per course, reduced to $400 for consortium students. For full course information see website.
Khirbet Wadi Hamam, a Roman-period village, is located in the eastern Lower Galilee above the Wadi Arbel (Hamam) gorge, two kilometers west of the Sea of Galilee. One of the largest villages in the area during the Roman period, its ancient remains cover some 50 dunams. One of the main research objectives of the project is to shed new light on the highly-debated issue of dating "Galilean"-type synagogues. In an attempt to gain a picture of rural life in Roman Galilee, excavations are also being carried out in residential and industrial areas of the ancient village. A unique mosaic synagogue floor with depictions of biblical episodes was a major find in previous seasons. Other interesting finds were a massive destruction layer in a residential structure which buried the entire household (including weapons and a hoard of coins from the days of Hadrian); houses with passages to underground chambers; oil lamps; pottery vessels and hundreds of coins.
Dr. Uzi Leibner, Hebrew University Institute of Archaeology
The expedition will be staying at the Arbel Holiday Homes run by the Konwitz family at Moshav Arbel (a small village 7 km west of Tiberias). Volunteers will be sharing rooms (2-3 people per room) in wooden cabins (2-4 rooms per cabin). Each cabin is equipped with a private bathroom, kitchenette, A/C, TV and a porch. Additional amenities for the use of the volunteers include: a swimming pool, sauna, a recreation room and free WiFi. Volunteers may stay (for an additional fee) in the cabins over the weekends; reservations should be made in advance directly with the Arbel Holiday Homes: http://www.inisrael.com/arbel/

Excavation at Tel Rehov, the location of the largest ancient Canaanite and Israelite site in the Beth-Shean Valley, began in 1997. In 2010, we plan a five week season, focusing on exposing more of the 10th century BCE beehive area in Area C, including a newly exposed structure where last season two complete cult stands were found and that appears to have a cultic function. Another focus of our excavation is a large public structure dating to the Late Bronze IIB in Area D.

Kibbutz Ramat Rahel is located on a hilltop (818 m above sea level), about midway between the Old City of Jerusalem and Bethlehem.Previous excavations at the site unearthed a large scale citadel with a royal palace from the time of the last kings of Judah - the only royal palace ever found from the kingdom of Judah. The 2009 excavation season in Ramat Rahel was very successful. However, excavations were not completed in some areas and we have decided to go back to the site for a short and concentrated season, in order to do some final excavations before concluding the whole project.
August 15-28. Excavation will be conducted for these 14 days without a weekend break. Participants can register only for the entire period.
Weekly fee per person, covering full board, use of all hotel facilities (pool, sauna, Jacuzzi, gym): from $538 to $923 per week, depending on accommodation.Price includes: participation in the dig, full room and board, two academic lectures, evening tours in Jerusalem (including city museums), afternoon archaeological programs and social activities. Price does not include: flights to and from Israel, transportation within Israel, insurance, weekend tours, up to $50 per person

Several excavations have been conducted in Tiberias during the past fifty years, uncovering finds from the Calcholithic through the Ottoman periods. A new excavation project began in Tiberias in March 2009 dealing with a colonnaded structure in the heart of the ancient city, recently been shown to be not a market but a congregational mosque dating from the Early Islamic period. Special finds to date include: a mosaic floor, Arabic inscriptions, complete oil lamps and hundreds of coins, all of great importance in dating the site's phases.

***More information on Dragunov Rifles*** It was selected as the winner of a contest that included three competing designs: the first was a rifle (known as the SSV-58) designed by Sergei Simonov, the second (prototype designated 2B-W10) – by Alexander Konstantinov, and the third rifle, the SVD-137, was a design by Evgeny Dragunov. Extensive testing of the rifles in variable environmental conditions resulted in E. F. Dragunov's design being accepted into service in 1963. At the same time an initial pre-production batch of 200 rifles was assembled, and from 1964 serial production was carried out at Izhmash. Since then, the SVD has become the standard squad support weapon of many countries, including those of the former Warsaw Pact, among them Poland (since 1966). Licensed production of the rifle was established in China (Type 79 and Type 85) and Iraq (as the Al Kadesiah).
Thanks for looking!

Elena Villamil carded a one-over 73 on Friday
March 21, 2014
BATON ROUGE, La. (SMU) – Senior Maria Elena Villamil turned in her best round of the month, carding a one-over 73 to lead the SMU women's golf team to an 11-over 299, good for second after the first round of the LSU Tiger Golf Classic on Friday at the University Club of Baton Rouge. Purdue leads the 15-team field after its nine-over 297 on Friday.
"I feel like we've been getting a little bit better every time we tee it up, and it was nice for it to show in the way of good scores out there today," head coach Jeanne Sutherland said. "This is a very tough golf course, so we talked about how important it was to focus on doing the best we could from where we were on the course. I thought we did a good job of executing that today. We had a very good mentality and great focus throughout the round."
Villamil finished the first round in a tie for fourth. The SMU senior's card was split between four bogeys and three birdies on Friday, after making the turn at even-par.
Sophomore Jenny Haglund and junior Jennifer Park joined Villamil in the top-10 when the teams entered the clubhouse after the first round. Haglund and Park will enter Saturday's second round in a tie for ninth. Haglund, who made the turn at two-over, turned in three birdies on the day, including two on par-5s. Park, who was is in the third spot of the Mustangs' lineup this week, finished her opening round with a two-over 74. After starting at +3 through the first six, Park answered back with three birdies and two bogeys the rest of the way to finish with a 74. All three of Park's birdies on the day came on par-4s.
Freshman Katie Page tallied a six-over 78, sitting in 33rd after the opening day, finishing both the front and the back nine and three-over. Sophomore Alexandra Rossi finished her first round at seven-over, good for 43rd on the individual leaderboard. Sitting at six-over through nine, Rossi got back on track in the final nine holes, recording just two bogies to go along with a birdie on the par-four seventh on her final nine holes.
Due to weather forecasts for Saturday night and Sunday in the Baton Rouge area, the tournament will be turned into a two-day event with 36 holes set to be played tomorrow. Live results can be tracked at BirdieFire.com.

Wet wipes and grease make for a mess in Charleston sewers
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Grease and wet wipes. It's the stuff "fatbergs" are made of. Charleston's sewer lines may not house anomalies such as London's 15-ton mass of fat found in the city's drains last spring, but workers at the Charleston Sanitary Board frequently encounter their own versions, said Operations Manager Tim Haapala. Wet wipes, thought to be flushable, cause real problems for municipal sewer pipelines. These wipes, when paired with grease that gets into drains, can create masses in the city's pipelines that can be costly to remove, Haapala said. Any number of items can cause blockages, but the wipes are one of the biggest culprits for back ups, Haapala said. "They're not degradable. That's the problem," Haapala said. These wipes can't be pushed down sewerage lines, especially by newer toilets, which only provide about a 3-gallon flush. Older toilets, Haapala said, were 5-gallon flushes. Old pipelines made of clay don't help the situation. "When you put those types of things down the drain in an old line and don't put the volume of water behind it to flush it, you're not flushing it," Haapala said. "It's just staying behind." Wipes will sit in sewer lines and catch the grease that's passing by. "That grease mixes with the towels, the wipes and then congeals," Haapala said. "It slowly builds ... like cholesterol in a vein." Of the 300 miles of pipeline maintained by the board, blockage issues tend to be worse on the West Side, East End and in Kanawha City, said Larry Roller, sanitary board general manager. "We run into these problems primarily on the flats ... because the lines are flatter, less slope," Roller said. While the sanitary board offices are open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Haapala said maintenance crews are on call 24-7. The process for solving a blockage issue can require a multitude of workers, from pipeline camera operators to those manning the vacuum trucks that flush pipelines and remove refuse. A four-hour blockage removal can easily cost the city $1,500, Haapala said. The cost of these calls is reflected in the rates, Haapala said. Roller added that these issues could affect homeowners even more directly via backups and flooding. "The incentive is on the property owner not to put those things in the line, because you flood yourself," Roller said. The Sanitary Board has spent time doing outreach, Roller said. With every blockage visit, maintenance workers will go over with a customer what caused the issue and how to prevent it. The board also sends a copy of the city's sewerage ordinance with its bills. It's also posted online, Roller said. Roller and Haapala said the city has slowly been replacing the old, clay pipelines with plastic ones as it has become necessary. But the cost of replacing the entire system is high and might not do much to help the situation. "Newer materials would help, but the bottom line is that stuff shouldn't go in the toilet to begin with," Haapala said. Reach Rachel Molenda at firstname.lastname@example.com or 304-348-5102.

At the same time as unveiling their latest budget offering – the Lumia 610 – Nokia also revealed that they've been secretly working on 'superhydrophobic' technology (that's a mouthful, isn't it?).
Conor Pierce, VP of Nokia Western Europe, began explaining the technology in slightly cryptic terms, saying, 'What happens when a drop of water lands on a lotus leaf… has baffled scientists for generations… but our team in Cambridge UK found a solution.'
'Nano technology lets us do it. Superhydrophobic technology makes water bounce, it stops it, rolls it off the device and leaves it water impregnant, that's the magic, that's what we're going to bring to the party.'
Nokia's intention with this technology is to implement into all future PureView and Lumia devices. Waterproof phones have been called for since time immemorial, but it's only recently that handsets such as the Motorola Defy Plus have effectively managed to combine quality with solidity in a phone.

Intel has traditionally adopted a hi-mainstream-low mix on their CPUs with the Core 2 Extreme, the Core 2 Duo and the Celeron D being the last mix of CPUs. Intel launched their 975X last year, have Core i5 CPUs for the mainstream and Core i3 CPUs for the budget conscious consumer. One issue has been that the difference between the Core i7 975 and the lowest end Core i7 CPU is the clock speed. The Core i7-980X Extreme Edition CPU changes the performance metric when it will be released in a few weeks but allowed us to do a review before the product hits retail.
The Core i7-980X is codenamed Gulftown and replaces the Core i7-975X CPU in Intels lineup as their top of the line CPU. Gulftown is their first 6-core consumer CPU to hit the market. This also marks the separation from the mainstream i7 CPUs as the new CPU requires the X58 chipset and wont work on the LGA-1156 CPU Socket found on the P55/H55/H57 etc chipsets. This CPU is also an Extreme Edition CPU, meaning that it is unlocked and can be overclocked higher by changing the multiplier as well as the BCLK upwards.
