Have Legal Questions? Ask a Lawyer Now.
Good evening! I can help you out with your legal question tonight. Yes, if it is your product, then you hold the rights of distribution.
With that said, you will need to check the contract that you executed with this distributor. Do you have that handy tonight?
We do not have any contract. I am concerned about restraint of trade laws.
Where is the distributor located?
he is in Ohio.
He is not a distributor, he is a customer who sells our products retail. He sells on Amazon,
No, trade restrain laws apply to employment issues and not products that you own.
So you sell your product to him, then he marks it up and sells it on Amazon?
Yes. He is making more money on Amazon than we are.
I understand. There is nothing legally you can do to stop him from doing that. I would suggest not selling to him and making your own Amazon site.
He is free to buy product and then resell it at a higher price.
You may also approach him about being a distributor if he is doing a good job at selling it.
That could help you more.
That is what I told him and he threatened me with restraint of trade law.
He is misguided in the law. You can not sell to him and are allowed to do so under the law.
You just can't refuse to sell to him based on race, religion etc.
I do not think we are big enough to have distributors.
It is just a suggestion. I would model my own amazon site after his and sell it to yourself.
sell it yourself
I have no idea of his race or religion. I just want our company to make more money. We can ship to the Amazon Fulfillment center as well as we can to him and make three time the profit on every unit.
I would recommend doing that then.
Disregard his threats. You aren't required by law to sell a product to anyone.
I do not even need a store. Our product id patented and trademarked. It is well know by users and they search for it by name.
That is great. Did you have any other legal questions tonight?
Thank-you! You have been very helpful! I don't have any others. This has really scared me and I could not afford to make a mistake.
You are very welcome and you were wise for checking with us. Have a great night and please leave me feedback before you go so that I can continue to help others.
I will do so
Thank you and take care.
You as well.

The economic crisis means it is tougher for families than it has been for decades – but despite household budgets being squeezed, people still find money to donate to charity.
The generosity of Brits never seems to waver, with one-off events such as Children in Need raising £26million and the latest Comic Relief fundraiser bringing in £50million in only a matter of hours.
It shows that no matter how hard it gets, we are a nation with deep pockets when it comes to supporting deserving causes dear to our hearts.
This commitment is echoed in research from Foresters, the financial services group, which claims that nine out of 10 UK adults donated money to charity last year, with the average person giving £72. Collectively, these pledges contributed £3.1billion to charitable causes.
Aside from the highly publicised TV charity extravaganzas, another simple yet popular way of supporting worthy causes is by using a charity credit card which gives a small percentage to your charity every time you spend on it.
Giving via a charity credit card has its plus points, the main one being you are giving just by going about your daily life. So paying for the weekly shop by card or a trip to the garage to fill up with petrol will lead to a donation being made without you even having to think about it.
Even though taxpayer-owned Lloyds Banking Group announced its decision to pull out of the charity credit card market in January after 23 years, which was a bitter blow for Cancer Research UK and the NSPCC, there are a few other major companies still offering these cards.
The Co-operative Bank, for example, says that its charity credit cards have generated more than £6million for good causes in the past four years, a sum certainly not to be sniffed at.
Among the tens of millions of pounds raised via MBNA, £1.5million has been raised for the National Trust as well as £800,000 from its 80,000 World Wildlife Fund cardholders in the past 12 months.
Michael Donald, from MBNA, said: "We have tens of thousands of charity credit cards in the UK market, which have helped contribute millions to charities over 19 years. The cards help consumers regularly give to charity – it is done automatically and at no extra cost and the charity can benefit every time a customer uses their card."
Looking at similar cards, the Virgin Charity Credit Card is the market leader in that it donates 0.8% of spend (or 1% including gift aid), far more generous compared with the majority of charity-based credit cards that only pass on 0.25% of your spend to the charity, i.e. 25p per £100 spent.
It is heartwarming that large sums are being generated via cards, but you cannot help feeling that the rebate levels could be more generous, particularly when compared with the amount consumers could earn by using a different type of credit card. By switching to a cashback card and making the donation yourself, it is easy to earn double the amount of a charity credit card and, as the table below highlights, in some cases it can be up to four times as much.
Some cards reward you with 5% cashback during the first three months and up to 1.25% of your spending from there on.
So if you want to earn a better return, think about using a credit card that gives you cashback, and then once a year when you get your rebate, use this money to make your own pledge.
This sounds good in practice, but it only works if you remember to send off your donation each year. This is not something that you have to worry about with a charity credit card as it is done by the card company.
The millions of pounds raised to date have already helped many deserving people in need.
So please don't stop giving, but perhaps think about being a bit smarter with your choice of card and it will be your charity that will reap the rewards.
Payroll Giving is another option if you are looking for a straightforward way to donate on a regular basis.
It allows you to make donations directly from your pay or company/personal pension. These are made after your National Insurance contributions are calculated but before income tax is deducted, so you only pay tax on what is left.
This means that you get tax relief on your donation immediately – and at your highest rate of tax.
If you pay tax at the basic rate of 20%, and make a £10 donation, you save £2 tax (20% of £10). This means the cost to you is £8.
If you pay tax at 40% and authorise a monthly donation of £10, that means you save £4 (40% of £10). The actual cost to you is £6.

Tallahassee, FL - Florida A&M University (FAMU) Nat Adderley Jr.'s "Music of Cannonball and Nat Adderley" along with a host of accomplished musicians will kick off FAMU's Lyceum Series on Friday, October 8, at 7:30 p.m. in Lee Hall Auditorium.
The auditorium is divided into three sections: Orchestra A, Orchestra B and Balcony C. The sections are divided into three areas: House Left, House Center and House Right. Seat selections are filled on a first-come first-served basis. Ticket prices are as follows: Section A tickets are $35; Section B are $25; and Section C are $15.
Growing up in a major jazz family, Nat Adderley, Jr. was destined to be a musician. His father was the powerhouse cornetist and composer Nat Adderley, Sr. who was famed for his work with his brother, the legendary alto saxophonist Julian "Cannonball" Adderley.
Adderley, Jr., whose grandparents once taught at FAMU and father attended FAMU, was born in Quincy, Fla. He spent much of his music career arranging for Luther Vandross. He grew up in Teaneck, New Jersey. He started playing piano as a child and had his first song, "I'm on My Way," recorded by his uncle Cannonball on the 1967 album Why Am I Treated So Bad! by the Cannonball Adderley Quintet when the young Adderley was only 11 years old. It was at the Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts in New York City that Adderley first met fellow student Luther Vandross, with whom he would later spend much of his musical career. He attended Yale University and graduated with a degree in African-American studies.
While living in Houston, Texas, he was the music arranger for the 1981 album Never Too Much, which became Vandross' first hit with the title track. He continued working with Vandross, who he called "a hilarious guy, a great employer, a great friend, and an incredible musician," until the singer's stroke in February 2003.
He has returned to his jazz roots, performing his own works, as well as tributes to both his father and uncle. He cites his influences as Chick Corea, John Coltrane and Thelonious Monk.
The following musicians will join Adderley on stage.
Longineu Parsons
Parsons, who is a cornetist, is an associate professor of music in FAMU' Department of Music. He is the protégé of the Nat Adderley. He also performs on recorders, flute and percussion and is a vocalist.
Longineu performs classical and jazz on trumpet and his compositions include orchestral works and chamber music as well as jazz and world music. Longineu has performed in some thirty countries in North, South and Central America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. He has performed for such dignitaries as the King of Morocco, the President of Gabon, the Royal Family of the Netherlands, the President of Austria, the U.S. Ambassador to France, The Royal Family of Monaco and for UNESCO.
Longineu holds a bachelor of science degree in music from FAMU and a master's degree of Music in classical trumpet from the University of Florida. He has also had supplementary jazz studies at the Berklee College of Music in Boston and has extensive studies in composition on the master's and doctoral levels.
Longineu has performed and recorded with such greats as Cab Calloway, Cecil Taylor, Nancy Wilson, Joe Williams, Herbie Mann, Frank Foster, Mal Waldron, Philly Joe Jones, Archie Shepp, Sun Ra, Sam Rivers, David Murray, Billy Harper, and many others.
Longineu has been soloist with the Jacksonville Symphony, Palm Beach Pops,
Tallahassee Symphony, Augusta Symphony, Gainesville Symphony and the University of South Carolina Symphony Orchestras. He has been a clinician at high schools and universities, most notably, the Conservatoire Nationale de France and the
Universidad Autonoma de Bucaramanga (Colombia).
Diron Holloway
Saxophonist Holloway is a composer and educator. Currently, he serves as associate professor of music at FAMU where he teaches jazz, classical saxophone, clarinet, chamber ensembles and jazz studies as well as perform with the FAMU Faculty Jazz Ensemble, FAMU Saxophone Quartet and FAMU Faculty Woodwind Trio.
He has studied saxophone with Michael Titlebaum, Steve Duke, Victor Goines, Joe Temperley, Wessell Anderson; clarinet studies with John Daniels, Gregory Barrett, Victor Goines; and flute studies with Dennine White. Holloway performed with Mitsuko on the Japanese album titled "Mitsuko and The J-yorkers," which released "Blue Canary" through Nippon Crown records. This album was awarded the 95th Annual Gold Disc as a best album chosen by Japan's most popular jazz magazine, "Swing Journal."
He has shared the stage with jazz greats such as Jimmy Heath, Benny Golson, Curtis Fuller, Ed Thigpen, Wynton Marsalis, and has performed with Wycliffe Gordon, Reginald Veal, Bobby Watson, Carl Allen, Victor Goines, Vincent Gardner, Roy McCurdy, Nat Adderley Jr. and Longineu Parsons.

Deer Hunting with Jesus: Dispatches from America's Class War (2007)
by Joe Bageant
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Bageant, Joe
Deer Hunting with Jesus: Dispatches from America's Class War
Remember, not long ago, the horror some of us felt over the result of the last election? Red vs. Blue? How could the very people most brutalized by the current economic system not take a chance on even just the possibilty of relief from these conditions by their vote? The answer is frightening. Bageant understands and even loves these people and his compassion and concern comes through. This is a problem and reality that none of us can afford to remain ignorant about, for it can, and will, engulf us all. I truly feel that there isn't anyone that wouldn't benefit from the insights Deer Hunting With Jesus provides, including the people being discussed.
Recommended February 2008
Recent happenings in shut-down America have one scratching one's head, as the Queen might say. So a friend placed this book in my hands and Bageant has now cleared a few things up for me. America's working class isn't comprised of Roseannes after all. It seems the truth is more horrifying by far.
Joe Bageant grew up in Winchester, VA, left to become a journalist with a left wing angle, and then returned to his NASCAR roots back in Winchester. He tells us about the people there in a sympathetic way. Not that he agrees with them or particularly admires them, but he explains why they are the way they are.
He covers the territory from a variety of angles. He never goes very deep, but he surveys the appearances and makes them understandable. To view a person's situation as not so much a reflection of the person's character but as a result of their circumstances: that's Bageant's approach and a manifestation of his left wing angle.
He has some nice references. David Hackett Fisher's book Albion's Seed discusses the various British subcultures that were transported to America and persist to this day. Bageant talks about Presbyterian Scottish Borderers who were first moved to I Ireland by James I to help control the Irish, and who then escaped the oppressive conditions there by moving to America. They formed what Colin Woodward calls Greater Appalachia: http://www.tufts.edu/alumni/magazine/fall2013/features/up-in-arms.html which maintains a huge influence in our national culture.
This book is a provocative look at southern rural communities in general, and Winchester, Virginia, the author's hometown, specifically. The author describes the culture and traditions of the inhabitants of these areas, and he pulls no punches in his descriptions. Do not look for any semblance of political correctness in this one -- he tells it just how he sees it. While large parts can be construed as rants against conservatives/Republicans, he doesn't spare liberals/Democrats, either. He makes several interesting points, and has references and statistics to back up his claims. He states the importance of education as well as a decent working wage in creating well-informed voters.
Reading this book was in a lot of ways like going home. Bageant and I grew up in similar milieus and the stories here were both familiar and infuriating. This book is a blistering indictment of the way the US operates, with a special emphasis on how the working poor are manipulated, deluded, and used. There's so much to digest here, and though some of the information is dated (always a problem with the topical political book), it is well worth reading. The working poor don't get much press aside from the dismissive, and untrue tropes used in election years. This book, to my eyes, definitively answers why the working poor vote against their own interests so consistently. Bageant also predicted the mortgage crisis accurately- down to about the third decimal place, which makes what he says about the next wave of financial and environmental ruin that much more chilling.
Accessibly written in a casual, profane and fond tone. I found Bageant's voice familiar, if not comforting. Highly recommended, especially for liberals who think they know all about the poor people and why they can't succeed.

Wikipedia in English (2)
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0307339378, Paperback)A raucous, truth-telling look at the white working poor-and why they hate liberalism.
Deer Hunting with Jesus is web columnist Joe Bageant's report on what he learned when he moved back to his hometown of Winchester, Virginia, which-like countless American small towns-is fast becoming the bedrock of a permanent underclass. By turns brutal, tender, incendiary, and seriously funny, this book is a call to arms for fellow progressives with little real understanding of "the great beery, NASCAR-loving, church-going, gun-owning America that has never set foot in a Starbucks."
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:10:50 -0400)
A Web columnist describes the permanent and largely invisible underclass that resides in many American small towns, examining a section of society that exists in a world of taverns, churches, and double-wide trailers.

The Kardashians
Kendall and Kylie Jenner Take Their Pants Off For A Photo Shoot!
Oh, those Jenner girls! They'll do anything to help a sibling out! In this case, that means dropping trou to model big brother Rob's luxury sock line, Arthur George.
Kendall and Kylie recently showed off Rob's wares in a provocative photo shoot, featuring the Jenner sisters and three other models wearing pastel-colored men's button-down shirts, and nothing on the bottom except a brightly-colored pair of Arthur George socks. A very high-end Risky Business, if you will.
Even though these teens were looking super-sexy, mom Kris Jenner was nothing but proud when she posted a pic of the shoot on Instagram.
"Love this photo shoot for@Arthurgeorgesocks proud of you @Robkardashian," the Keeping Up With the Kardashians momager wrote.
If she's cool with it, we're cool with it! We're glad to hear that Rob's luxury line in still up and kicking. We got worried when a sales slump had Neiman Marcus considering cancelling their relationship with the line, but the website is up and running and obviously the advertising is still going strong!
Also, when you're starting a new fashion business it probably doesn't hurt to have lookers like Kendall and Kylie in the family, to keep your model costs down.
Then again, do you think Kris lets Kendall and Kylie work for free? So many sock questions, so little time!

November 1982
Peter Medawar, a British zoologist, shared the 1960 Nobel Prize for physiology or medicine with Sir Frank Macfarlane Burnet for the discovery of acquired immunological tolerance. Following World War II, Medawar worked on skin grafts and discovered that the success of a graft depends on how closely related the donor and recipient are. In 1953 he found that, by injecting tissue cells from adult mice into developing mice embryos, the younger mice then were able to receive successful skin grafts from the donor mice. This discovery of acquired immunological tolerance paved the way for later work on suppressing the rejection of organ transplants. (deceased 10/2/87)

Onslow County deputies are on the search for a man who robbed a cab driver at gunpoint, and then stuffed her into the trunk.
The woman is okay, deputies say because she was smart enough to have her cell phone with her when the gunman put her into the trunk. She called authorities with her last location. Deputies say once the gunman spotted them he stopped the cab, fired one shot at them and took off running.
Deputies say it started around 2:30 a.m. Sunday when the cabbie picked up the fare in the Northwoods Shopping Center. The man asked her to take him to Jim Blake Road, but on the way he put a gun to her head and said it was a robbery.
The cab driver told authorities the man forced her to stop near Briarneck Road and Jim Blake Road. After putting her in the trunk, the gunman drove down the gravel road, and that's when she called on her cell phone for help.
Tracking dogs weren't able to find the gunman and authorities have released a composite photo of what he looks like. He is described as a black man, between 30 and 35 years old, 5"7 to 5'9" in height, weighing 250-270 pounds. The gunman was wearing a black or dark hoody, and had a grey plaid jacket over the hoody and wore black leather gloves.
Anyone who knows who the gunman is should contact the Onslow County Sheriff's Office.

Britney Jean Spears (born December 2, 1981) is an American recording artist and entertainer. Born in McComb, Mississippi, and raised in Kentwood, Louisiana, Spears began performing as a child, landing acting roles in stage productions and television shows. She signed with Jive Records in 1997 and released her debut album ...Baby One More Time in 1999. During her first decade within the music industry, she became a prominent figure in mainstream popular music and popular culture, followed by a much-publicized personal life. Her first two albums established her as a pop icon and broke sales records, while title tracks "...Baby One More Time" and "Oops!... I Did It Again" became international number-one hits. Spears was credited with influencing the revival of teen pop during the late 1990s.
In 2001, she released her third studio album Britney and expanded her brand, playing the starring role in the film Crossroads. She assumed creative control of her fourth studio album, In the Zone (2003), which yielded chart-topping singles "Me Against the Music", "Toxic" and "Everytime". After the release of two compilation albums, Spears experienced personal struggles and her career went under hiatus. Her fifth studio album, Blackout, was released in 2007 and despite receiving little promotion, it spawned hits "Gimme More" and "Piece of Me". In 2008, her erratic behavior and hospitalizations caused her to be placed in a conservatorship. The same year, her sixth studio album Circus was released, with the global chart-topping lead single "Womanizer". She embarked on her highest-grossing global concert tour, The Circus Starring Britney Spears, in 2009. Her seventh studio album Femme Fatale, released in 2011, has become the first of her albums to yield three top ten singles in the United States.

The profession of dental hygiene is entering a truly exciting time of evolution. Peer professionals and patients alike are now understanding the preventive purpose of the dental hygienist. In addition, the proven success of dental hygiene diagnosis and treatment planning as well as related preventive care are also now being recognized.
Therefore, the emphasis must now be on preparing for these new horizons in dental hygiene education as well as maintaining continuing education (CE) throughout the professional lifetime of the dental hygienist. Also recognized is the importance of far reaching technology in the everyday lives of both patients and dental hygienists. Adaption to change is the key to the future!
However, it is important to keep in mind that effective communication is as important to healthcare as clinical skill or new technology. To improve individual health and build healthy communities, healthcare providers such as dental hygienists need to recognize and address the unique culture, language and health literacy of diverse consumers and communities. This stress on diversity must begin in the professional education of the dental hygienist.
Finally, each learning situation has its own unique culture, values, principles and processes, as well as codes of conduct. However, as a dental professional, every dental hygienist, whether student or licensed, needs to consider their professional actions as they expand and grow in their career. It is imperative that we transform as a profession so as to make our mark on the 21st century.

The driver of an 18-wheeler lost control of the rig, hit a van and crashed into a convenience store on Highway 82 in Pickens County.
Witnesses said the injury toll could have been worse.
"I was standing behind the register and we just heard the squealing of tires and I went to look out the window," said store manager Anna Benefield. "Because if I had been standing two feet in another direction, I could have been dead."
All occupants of the van escaped injury. One person inside the store was taken to a Tuscaloosa hospital.

Netflix Review: Is It Worth It?
Posted By Jim On 11/01/2009 @ 12:00 pm In Reviews | 88 Comments
Whenever someone talks about frugal expenses, Netflix [3] always seems to be the popular example held up as the sacrificial lamb to the frugal gods. I think it's a popular target because it's so easy to attack. Subscribers pay a flat monthly fee to watch movies, a pure discretionary entertainment expense, and so many times our lives get in the way. Movies sit on the table unwatched, unreturned, and the only cost is a flat monthly fee. It's all too convenient and so it makes an inviting target.
Before I was a convert I had no idea why people signed up for Netflix [4] and took my fair share of shots at Netflix. So what changed my mind?
Getting the DVDs sent to our house is only the beginning of the service and, quite frankly, the least valuable. I enjoy movies but on my list of entertainment options, movies aren't near the top of the list. However, the online streaming video options that Netflix offers include lots of television shows that aren't carried on sites like Hulu. If you want to watch the past seasons of popular television shows, Netflix has plenty of them available streaming to your PC or TV. If you like PBS documentaries, they have those (or History Channel, or any number of documentary-laden channels). DVRs are nice, but the show has to be broadcast before you can record it.
The clincher for me was integration with XBox Live, which is the online service for Microsoft's XBox 360 game console [5]. This puts the entire library of Netflix's online content at your disposal because the XBox is already hooked up to the TV. You don't have to fiddle with connecting your computer to the TV and streaming the video that way, it's all set up.
Six months ago, the process of watching shows or movies on the XBox was tedious. You had to add shows or movies to your Instant Queue before you could watch it on your XBox. Now, you can search the library from the XBox without having to add it to your queue first. You can still add things to your instant queue if you want (and we do, it's easier than searching for it).
To take advantage of this you'll need an XBox, XBox Live Gold membership [6], and a fast internet connection. So while the minimum plan is only $8.99, unless you have it set up then you'll have to pay more for the infrastructure.
Netflix [3] has a variety of plans starting with the $4.99 a month for one DVD out at a time (limit 2 a month) and 2 hours of online content to $16.99 a month for 3 DVDs out at a time and unlimited online content. I personally don't see the value in getting the $16.99 3-DVD plan, at most I'd get the $13.99 a month 2 DVDs out at a time because it lets you keep one while one is in transit.
Here is a review of the four plans:
|DVD Limit
|Online Limit
|1 DVD out at-a-time
|2 hrs/month
|1 DVD out at-a-time
|2 DVDs out at-a-time
|3 DVDs out at-a-time
Qualitatively, I think so. We are on the1 DVD out at-a-time plan plus unlimited instant watching for $8.99 a month. We chose that plan because of the unlimited instant watching, which is what you'll need to get the XBox 360 integration I talked about above.
I went back to look at Feedfliks, which will take your Netflix account usage data and calculate the cost per movie, how long it takes for you to return DVDs, and other good statistical information to tell you whether you're maximizing your usage. For us, it's been worth it as our Relative Cost/Movie is at 40 cents each. Our usage is heavily influenced by our instant watching (25 shows or movies in the last month, 75% of which were TV shows).
Netflix [3] offers a 2 week trial that can help you decide if you like it. It's long enough to get a couple movies by mail, to see how long it takes to receive them, but the real value is that it lets you browse their library to see if they carry the things you like to watch. If you sign up for the trial, select a plan that gives you unlimited video so you can watch content online. If nothing else, you get two weeks of all the online content you can mash into your brain.
Do you use Netflix [3]? Hate it? Love it? Please share your opinion in the comments!

The uncommon malignant soft-tissue neoplasm, rhabdomyosarcoma, has been reported as arising from a wide variety of anatomic sites. The majority of documented rhabdomyosarcomas have had their origin in peripheral skeletal muscle and soft tissues.
Stobbe and Dargeon1 were the first to consider head and neck rhabdomyosarcomas as a clinical and pathologic group. Earlier, Pack and Eberhart2 had proposed that visceral and lingual rhabdomyosarcomas be placed in a separate category.
The largest number of head and neck rhabdomyosarcomas observed and treated at any one center is that reported from the Memorial Center for Cancer and Allied Diseases, New York City. Stobbe and Dargeon and Moore and Grossi reported a total of 52 cases over a 25-year period from that institution.1,3 Other studies consist of considerably smaller series or single case reports.
We have made pathological and clinical observations on 9 cases of rhabdomyosarcoma arising in structures of the

Two years after winning a court battle to build a Salmon Creek Supercenter, Wal-Mart is showing new interest in the site.
But no construction date is planned for the rare two-story Walmart store, proposed for 14 acres just east of Interstate 205 at Northeast 134th Street, said Rachel Wall, a spokeswoman for Wal-Mart Stores Inc. However, Wall confirmed Friday the Bentonville, Ark.-based retailer has put out bids to have the site cleared of two vacant buildings at 12923 and 12925 N.E. Rockwell Drive, on the south end of Wal-Mart's tract.
The company fought hard to win approval to build on the property, bordered by 134th and 129th streets to the north and south, and by 27th Avenue to the west.
That right would have expired by now if government officials had not extended construction permit deadlines to December 2014 for starting projects approved between June 1, 2004 and Dec. 31, 2008.
"The extension was not given to Wal-Mart alone. They are a beneficiary," said Michael Uduk, a planner with Clark County's Community Development Department.
Other projects approved for development that would have started during the economic downturn also benefited from the extension, he said.
Wall would not confirm whether Wal-Mart aims to start work by the deadline.
"The Salmon Creek project is still in the planning phase and no store construction schedule is available at this time," she wrote.
Uduk said preparations and site work for the project will have to meet the county's approval before Wal-Mart can obtain a permit to begin actual construction of its planned 177,000-square-foot discount store.
Wal-Mart expects crews to tear down the buildings by March 31, according to construction bid documents at the website secure.smartbidnet.com.
The work will "ensure the safety of the site," Wall said in her Friday email.
Wal-Mart's project, allowed by a state Court of Appeals decision in 2012, also will need to satisfy a list of development conditions before permits can be issued, Uduk said.
"Conditions can range from meeting and complying with standards relating to traffic, stormwater and erosion controls to ensuring that you have adequate site parking," he said.
Wal-Mart first proposed plans to build the discount store in 2005 to attract food shoppers after concluding that its Highway 99 store's site was too small to add a grocery component there. Wal-Mart purchased the site after it was rejected by Legacy Health System, which later built its nearby Salmon Creek hospital a bit northwest of the Wal-Mart site.
Wal-Mart's plan was challenged by the Fairgrounds Neighborhood Association, which claimed the development would create drainage problems and an unsafe traffic plan. In 2007, Clark County commissioners found flaws with Wal-Mart's plans, and the county's lawyers took up the neighbors' case. But in 2010, state Court of Appeals judges ruled the county had failed to offer enough facts to demonstrate a problem, allowing the project to go forward.

In Frederic Bastiat's 1850 masterpiece, "The Law", he poses the following question: "Since the natural tendencies of mankind are so bad that it is not safe to allow them liberty, how comes it to pass that the tendencies of organizers are always good?" (Bastiat 46). Over 150 years later in today's climate of economic upheaval, public and private corruption, and widespread systemic ineptitudes, this question is all the more relevant. Considering such a question could easily leave one agreeing with Henry David Thoreau in the idea "that government is best which governs least" (Thoreau 343). At the very least, with a more hands-off approach, the damage done through meddling would be limited. Individuals who are in agreement with these statements may also find agreement with the foundations of libertarianism. Libertarianism is a philosophy which holds liberty as its highest value, and is founded upon the non-aggression axiom, individual responsibility, and absolute property rights.
Letter from Ron Paul: Foundation for Rational Economics and Education (FREE)
I am posting this letter from Congressman Dr. Ron Paul because his message is more important now than ever. During the 2008 Republican primary race Dr. Paul was ridiculed and belittled for warning about exactly what is hapening in the economy today. The vast majority of people didn't want to heed his warnings and advice, and as a result they lost a lot of money, and are now struggling to make ends meet. All the while they still do not understand why this all is happening. It is not the fault of free market capitalism, it is the result of greedy elite, broken monetary policy by the (Private) Federal Reserve Banks, and corrupt politicians on both sides of the isle. I hope you read this letter and decide to help Ron Paul in his continuing quest to restore America to greatness.
Election '08: CSPAN/NPR Give Third Parties Some Attention
With a little over a week left before this campaign season ends there is still little to no coverage for any of the third party candidates. As usual, one of the exceptions to the rule comes from the wonderful people over at CSPAN. In particular, their program Washington Journal has highlighted three of the candidates over the past week. Chuck Baldwin (Constitution), Cynthia Mckinney (Green), and Bob Barr (Libertarian) all received 30 minutes of airtime which consisted of an interview and a Q&A session with callers from across the nation.
Dear Mr Bob Barr,
You have been doing a huge disservice to the Libertarian Party during this election. First you snub Ron Paul's 3rd Party Press Conference and now you refuse to show up at the 3rd Party debates being held this Sunday. Grow the fuck up and get your head out of your ass, Mr. Barr.
I have been fighting for and championing greater access to debates for the 3rd parties. People need to hear the Libertarian platform in these trying times. You are doing the country a great disservice by refusing to debate other 3rd party candidates. You are behaving like a petulant child, probably because Ron Paul has failed to endorse you and the fact that Dr Paul has single-handedly blown the LP out of the water in terms of financing and following.
Instead of trying to win over the hearts and minds of liberty loving americans, your campaign has been busy bad mouthing other 3rd party cantidates and alienating members of the freedom movement brought in by Ron Paul. This is neither the time nor the place for such petty attacks. Your campaign is really starting to turn off a lot of people in the freedom movement. I sometimes believe that you are still working for the CIA, as an agent provocateur, to discourage and break up the movement. Ron Paul scared the establishment and you come in to divide and conquer.
If indeed you are a true Libertarian and pro-liberty, start acting like it. IF I do decide to vote for your sorry excuse for a Libertarian ass, I will do so in the spirit of the party and its ideals. I will not be casting a vote in favor of Bob Barr, because sir, I do not like you. I wanted to like you, I've tried to like you, but you make it so hard. You sir, are an asshole.
Even though I endorsed you on my website last week, I now encourage those who cannot look past your problems to write in Dr Ron Paul. It's better than giving a vote to you and endorsing your bullshit.
Show up to the debate Sunday. Win. Spread the cause. Shit or get off the pot.
Free Stickers: I'm A Constitution Voter and Libertarian: More Freedom Less Government
Just wanted to share these 2 sites with you folks. You can get yourself some free stickers to declare your love of the constitution and hate of big government.
The ACLU is offering the "I'm a Constitution Voter" bumper sticker for free. Their goal is to sign up over 300,000 by Oct 15th. The ACLU Website states:
I Am a Constitution Voter
- I believe that no one — including the President — is above the law.
- I oppose all forms of torture, and I support both closing the Guantánamo Bay prison and ending indefinite detention.
- I oppose warrantless spying.
- I believe that government officials, no matter how high-ranking, should be held accountable for breaking the law and violating the Constitution.
- I believe that the Constitution protects every person's rights equally — no matter what they believe, how they live, where or if they worship, and whom they love.
- I reject the notion that we have to tolerate violations of our most fundamental rights in the name of fighting terrorism.
- I am deeply committed to the Constitution and expect our country's leaders to share and act on that commitment — every day, without fail.
Over at Free Libertarian Stickers dot com you can get yourself a sticker which reads: Libertarian: More Freedom, Less Government as well as a Bob Barr for president bumper sticker.
Here is what I did with my free(dom) stickers:
Constantly Choosing The Lesser of Two Evils Is Still Choosing Evil
It is a rare occurrence when I would quote Jerry Garcia, but "Constantly choosing the lesser of two evils is still choosing evil" is very poignant with the election coming up. How is it, that many people will say they arent particularly happy with our two main choices for president, yet still vote for "the lesser of 2 evils"? How did we get to this situation?
Odd Couples and Third Parties
The odd couple of Republican Congressman Ron Paul and independent presidential candidate Ralph Nader joined forces yesterday with the Green Party's Cynthia McKinney and Chuck Baldwin (Constitution) to spread a unified message and agreement of four key principles. Simply put, they all agreed to uphold an anti-war, pro-privacy, anti-debt, anti-Fed stance. Despite each candidate's differing views on a number of issues, these four positions unite them all in an attempt to bring forth what they collectively agree are some of the most pressing issues of our time. In addition to the four principles they came with additional messages.

DAILY NEWS: Winstar's Buys French Films; Paramount Takes "Assassins" and AFI Award and the BIFA's
by Eugene Hernandez/indieWIRE
>> Winstar Confirms Deals for French Films by Ozon and Birot
(indieWIRE/ 10.30.00) -- Winstar Cinema's Senior VP of Acquisitions Krysanne
Katsoolis confirmed Friday that the company has acquired two new French
films, Francois Ozon's "Under the Sand" (Sous Le Sable) and Anne-Sophie Birot's "Girls Can't Swim."
Katsoolis indicated that she and colleague Marie Therese Guirgis first
screened the films at last month's Toronto International Film Festival and
they made the deal as part of a three picture pact with the French sales
company Celluloid Dreams. The deal included the previously announced rights
to Jafir Panahi's "The Circle."
Ozon's "Under the Sand" stars Charlotte Rampling and Bruno Cremer. The
filmmaker is known in this country for "Sitcom," "Criminal Lovers," "Water Drops on Burning Rocks" and "See The Sea." It is set to be released
theatrically in April of next year. Ann Sophie-Birot's "Girl's Can't Swim"
(Les Filles ne savent pas nager), her first feature, stars Islid Le Besco
("Sade") in a story of two girls -- best friends -- who are struggling with
their own sexuality and their relationship with each other.
[Eugene Hernandez]
>>Paramount Nabs Schroeder's "Assassins"
(indieWIRE/ 10.30.00) -- Paramount Classics has acquired the rights to
Barbet Schroeder's "Our Lady of the Assassins" (La Virgen de los Sicarios)
according to ScreenDaily. The gay-themed film screened this Fall at both
the Telluride and Venice Film Festivals.
In a report from the Venice festival last month, where it won the Golden
Medal of the Italian Senate prize, indieWIRE reporter Andrea Meyer called the movie disappointing. Reacting to the movie in her article, Meyer wrote,
"[Schroeder's] latest effort brings amateurish acting, bloated
sentimentality, and trite dialogue to the contrived tale of a gay writer in
love with an angelic sixteen-year old hoodlum in Colombia. In what is no
doubt an attempt to crack open a society that kills without conscience,
Schroeder instead comes across as a guy who knows as much about
homosexuality, teenagers and gang violence as he does about Martians."
[Eugene Hernandez]
>>AFI Fest Closes with Awards; Makhmalbaf Wins Top Prize
(indieWIRE/ 10.30.00) -- The AFI Fest closed last week with the announcement
of the award winners for its 14th Festival. Samira Makhmalbaf's
"Blackboards" won the event's Grand Jury Prize in the Festival's
International Competition, while Kenneth Lonergan's "You Can Count On Me" won the top prize in the New Directions from American Independents section.
In the Discovery Documentary Competition, Arlene Donnelly's "Naked States" was the winner.
In the audience categories, Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu's "Amores Perros"
(Love's A Bitch) won the feature film prize, while Jilann Spitzmiller and
Hank Rogerson's "Homeland" won the doc award and Oliver Dieckmann's "Ordinary Love" won the short prize. [Eugene Hernandez]
>>"Billy Elliot" Big at BIFA's
(indieWIRE/ 10.30.00) -- "Billy Elliot" was a big winner at last week's
British Independent Film Awards, taking the awards for best film, best
director for Stephen Daldry, best newcomer for actor Jamie Bell and best
screenplay for writer Lee Hall.
The BIFA's were established three years ago to, in the words of organizers,
"recognise the growing stature of the British Independent Film Industry both
in the UK and worldwide." [Eugene Hernandez]

It's probably a little late to buy your special someone a special something for Valentine's Day, but it's never a bad idea to get a jump on gift shopping for future special occasions. Especially when you can make a good deal and, in the long run, save a bit of money.
Nokia's Lumia 925 is up for grabs via Newegg, probably for a limited time only, for an incredibly low $279.99. That's off-contract, mind you, though technically this is a T-Mobile phone, so it can just be used on the "Uncarrier".
Small inconvenience, I'm sure you'll agree, since most other retailers charge $400 for the 4.5-inch Windows Phone. T-Mo? Nothing upfront, but $21 each month for two full years, adding up to a whopping $504.
So we're looking at $225 or, worst case scenario, $120 savings. Forget about presents, this should be your next mobile device. Granted, it's slightly behind the times in the processing speed department, packing an aging dual-core Snapdragon S4 CPU, but it's also LTE-enabled.
And it comes with 1 GB RAM in tow, a 720p AMOLED display, spacious 2,000 mAh battery, as well as top-notch 8 MP camera with Carl Zeiss optics and optical image stabilization. Oh, yes, it's covered in aluminum too. How cool is that?

Forget faddy diets – the secret to weight-loss could be a simple spritz away, as a French perfumer claims it has created the world's first slimming fragrance.
The makers of the Velds 'Prends-Moi' perfume claim the ingredients work like a stress reliever, increasing the wearers feelings of contentment by releasing B-endorphins in the skin (neurotransmitters that deliver messages between nerve cells).
This, they claim, takes away the urge to overeat.
The perfume also contains caffeine, carnitine and spirulina extract – ingredients that allegedly activate the enzymes involved in lipolysis (breaking down fat).
Or, as the official Velds website describes it, "the perfume caresses the skin like rushing water delivering aquatic, fruit and floral scents from a fantasy Garden of Eden…"
Watch: Velds 'Prends-Moi' perfume in action
For the fragrance to work properly, the wearer has to apply generously in the morning and again when they're most likely to have a snack-attack.
"Use every time the need for snacking arises and in light spraying on the specific zones to be slimmed, morning or nigh," states the website.
Weight-Loss Specs That Trick Brain Into Eating Less (WATCH)
The official Velds 'Prends-Moi' website also claims their promises are backed by a scientific trial.
The Centre of Biological Research and Cutaneous Experimentation study of women aged 18 to 75 years found that 82% experienced a "sensation of comfort" after applying the fragrance.
A further 75% of the women noted a decrease in their snacking urges after using the perfume for 28 days.
So what does skinny smell like?
According to the makers website, the top notes include accents of bergamot, mandarin and grapefruit. Base notes include musk and vanilla with patchouli and the woodsy intensity of sandalwood.
If you think this perfume sounds ridiculous, take a look at these unsavoury scents...
American fast-food joint Burger King has created its own perfume for men that promises to make the burger-loving wearer smell like "seduction with a hint of flame-broiled meat". Sexy.
Smell like a freshly opened can of Play Doh and be transported back to your childhood with this quirky scent. The ingredients have never been revealed (Play Doh fiercely guard their secret recipe) but it apparently has an earthworm and mushroom scent.
In 2006, a British Stilton cheese company launched a perfume aptly called, 'Eau de Stilton'. The perfume's cheesy scent was made of a mixture of fruits smells with notes of angelica seed, valerian, yarrow and clary seed.
Comme de Garçons has created the anti-perfume, with scents resembling a grease and oil-filled car garage. The 'Series 6 Synthetic' range contains smells of plastic bottles, garage bags and the house garage. These scents are made up of aldehydes, kerosene, leather and plastic, softened with floral vetiver and cedar notes.
You may like eating them, but would you fancy smelling like a lobster or your favourite sushi rolls? Containing scents of the sea, sweet meat, and butter for the lobster Cologne and sticky rice, seaweed and ginger for the sushi spray, you can indeed smell like a fish in the ocean.
This unusual, if a little disturbing, perfume called 'Vulva Original' apparently recreates the "beguiling vaginal scent". The "milky' scent is said to stimulate pheromones and says you can, "smell and enjoy the intimate scent of a desirable woman. Anytime and anywhere." Not in a perfume shop near you...

Ukamaka Olisakwe On The Eyes Of A Goddess
At fifteen, Njideka is caught in the the deep political turmoil beleaguering Nigeria. When the government arrests and tortures her father following a peaceful protest, he return home a shadow of himself: a changed man. Njideka's family begins to break apart under the yoke of a reckless regime. It is a story of hardship, abuse, and the resilient spirit of those desperate to breathe the air of freedom.
I got the chance to read this novel before the interview and the original intention was to do a review of the book and then interview the author but I was just simply amazed at the story and the guts the author has to write this part of the new African story.
This is a story of love, loss, goddesses, and how everything has an almost symbiotic relationship. The protagonist in this novel seems almost like a victim but after reading the novel and taking a deep breath, you are simply reminded about our unbreakable spirits as humans. This books gets 5 stars and you can pick it up from Barnes and Nobles. Enjoy the interview with Ms. Ukamaka Olisakwe.
Who is Ukamaka?
I am a mother of two young girls (10, and 8 years old) and a boy (5 years old). I was born in 1982 in Kano, Nigeria. Today, I work in a regional bank in Eastern Nigeria, where I also reside with my husband.
When did you start writing?
Well, unlike some other writers, writing didn't come easily to me. I wish it did. I wish that I was inspired by powerful, mind-blowing stories I read as a child. Mine came from pain, from trying to live and understand why people change. I had a devastating experience at the age of nine, during the bloody Kano riot of 1991. My dad threw caution to the wind and went in search of my cousins, who were stuck in the belly of Kano. I remember that choking fear that came every minute bearing down on me as I sat in front of our gate waiting for Dad. I willed for Dad to be safe. I remember too how hard Mum had cried and prayed for his safety. It was thoroughly devastating. And even hours later after Dad returned with my cousins, (they were rescued by soldiers), the fear did not go. I think that was when I began to pay attention to details, details that would groom my writing. That fear stayed for years. They became demons that haunted me, made me afraid of the beautiful city. These demons stayed still, blurred my memories of my existence until I put down my first word after the birth of my first child. I was exorcised of those demons. I found that I could actually exorcise with my pen, that I could recreate history, could raise the dead and give them life again, that I could make Dad a super hero and he would be safe. It was a kind of victory. Though I never took this new form of freedom seriously by writing a full book about my characters; they were mainly bits and pieces of words written in my diary. But it all changed after I began my work in the bank and a colleague read one of my stories and made it his duty to force me into full-time writing. That was in 2010.
What were the challenges that you faced putting this story together and publishing it?
The major challenge was putting down the story. You see, I had this fabulous bestseller up in my head. I slept and dreamt of it. I did that a lot. I made a lot of plans, designed my plot, but they ended up not being used. The characters would not come to life. Then I found it wasn't to be that way. The plots would not work. The bestseller idea fizzled out. Then I started all over with the name 'Njideka'. And she came. The story finally came.
Another challenge was losing my sleep. That was tortuous because at a point, I was so exhausted that I wished to sleep for days. Really, it is difficult combining work and writing. You get to the point of exhaustion and this story is begging to be written. You are so tired, and there are these forlorn voices begging, whispering, "Please, please, please, free us,", you just wish to shut them up, to rest, but you have no option but to write their words else you risk insanity. And at the end, you are so wasted, your nerves beg for rest and when you close your eyes, to sleep, the alarm goes off. Grrr! That, I must say, is very annoying.
The final challenge is getting published. That is a long tale for another day. However, my encounter with the publisher of Piraeus Books (Williamstown, Massachusetts) was a game changer for me. It's the most supportive experience I have ever had as a writer. I am very thankful to Piraeus Books.
The major victory is in giving voices to the spirits of my characters. And then the satisfaction and slight pride, and maybe a tinge of smugness that comes with being listened to; when you are allowed to tell your own story.
What author inspires your writing?
I have no favorite author. I have read a lot of authors, both African and American. Well, I should say that I was drawn by Buchi Emecheta's ,The Joys of Motherhood. That story of Nnu Ego touched my being and made me appreciate African works. Another whose strong voice resounds is Lola Shoneyin. There is this handsome and mannish way, this strength that reverberates through her characters. I see her as a very strong person with the same voice naturally. I read Ken Saro-Wiwa's, A forest of Flowers and I loved Dukana through his eyes. And then there is Elnathan John. His short stories are always of pain and loss, reminds you to appreciate the little you have, and to seek for a way to deal with the harsh realities of our environment. The greatest to me remains, unarguably, Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart. So, I have no particular author whose works alone inspires me.
My inspiration mostly comes from the little things that live with us; issues that we turn a blind eye to; one that accumulates until the point when it bursts out and everyone is like, "Oh, God! When did this begin?"
Most of the life changing experiences we have emanates from the things we ignore. Just like a child who you do not pay attention to as she sulked or as she suffered. This child begins to feel that she is hated by you . But you do not pay any attention to her until you find out that she has been raped and abused and as such has become mentally twisted. This overwhelms and haunts you and you start to believe that you are being haunted by someone from the village. That's the kind of story that inspires me. Those little things, incidences that would end up sinking a whole community. Those are what matter.
What informed this need to tell this story or how did this story come to you?
As a child, I had always wanted, wished, that I posses extraordinary powers. It started with my interests in cartoons, of girls having superman powers, saving their cities. I think the turning point came after my experience of the Kano riot. The images of pain I saw, experienced, stayed with me. That memory stuck with me. To me, Dad was my superhero. I wanted to be like him, fearless. And this reflected in my story, helped in forming the character of Njideka. I felt she should become a kind of Messiah, like I had wished for, like dad was.
Then something happened along the story. I couldn't stop the tribulations that came Njideka's way. I had wanted her to truly become the superwoman, to save her world, to be above pain. But other characters, spirits, objected. I realized it was time for people to stop yearning for a Messiah. Truly, people do not know their true power. We blamed colonialism and the Biafran war aftermath for our deplorable state - which in truth was, but our leaders, those who lived and survived the depressing times became Lords unto themselves and subjected their own people to a more tortuous experience. It is absurd that the same people who are quick to point a finger, to blame the past, are the same people who jump into the bandwagon of corruption and run over their own kin. It was time for people to stop whining for help. We are equipped, naturally, with all it takes to rule our world. This is reminiscent of the happenings in our country, Nigeria. We are more religious than most people at the surface, I think. A typical Nigerian will meet a wall and you would expect him to find a ladder and climb over that wall or punch a hole through it, to even realize that it is made of loose sand. But he would kneel down, hands up in heavens, or towards a pastor, seeking for help for a problem whose solution lies within his reach. We are all guilty of that offence. It is time we realize that we are equipped already. So, the people in my book stood up and stayed up until change came.
Are there any aspects of this story that is from the familiar (people you know/stories that you heard as a child)?
I just write stories. There are no plot, no drawing board. My characters come alive as I whip my pen, like spirits. They whisper their stories to me. The familiar comes from the setting; you are able to flow freely if you are in a familiar place, a place of memories.
Your story mixes mysticism with other aspects of daily life - what is your take on African mysticism?
African mysticism focuses on the communion, divinity, and interaction with gods – those that have lived before, those whose exemplary lives are remembered and worshiped. When you open your mind, listen to the stories of how these gods, men, lived their pure lives, you would begin to get angry about why they were demonized in the first place. The problem was the conflict between African mysticism and that of Christianity or Islam. There was no middle ground; a room to understand what the people – Africans – believed in and why. If "they" had thoroughly studied the African approach, there would have been a common ground. But this was a colonialist decision.
I believe in Mysticism, in something that reminds me of a greater being out there watching me; my actions, the one who frowns when I do the wrong thing. I want to believe in something that reminds me of a moral boundary.. There is an underlying intricacy in life, even for those who choose to believe that there are no moral boundaries - that line we shouldn't cross. But there are boundaries. There is a superior being. There is more than meets the eyes. I refuse to believe anything that lets me have it all, that let me live life like one on a roller coaster. And African spirituality intrigues me. It is sad that we were brought up to hate our customs. I intend to give credence to my Africanness through my works. It makes us appreciate where we came from.
These goddesses that you mention in your book like -Isele, are they really from Igbo culture or were they created for this story?
They were created for my book, but they were inspired by real life characters, those who have impacted my life in one way or the other. Isele is the alias of my late grandmother. She was the ideal woman, a lovable home maker and peacemaker. Back in the past, women like these were remembered. Even in Christendom, those who had lived such exemplary lives are made Saints. The others – Nma and Omalicha – meaning 'beauty' came from the Igbo saying of "Agwa bu nma nwanyi", true beauty is in the character of a woman. These goddesses are who we are, who we aspire to be.
Your book is quite thematic and dark in certain areas dealing with issues of hatred within families, incest, spiritual warfare (ogbanje) and the concept of reincarnation - what do you want us as readers to take away from this book?
These are series of life truths, those things that are above normal comprehension, or those that we choose to pretend do not exist. They will not disappear or cease to exist if we don't talk about them. These anomalies in life intrigue me. I wanted to look at them, to understand how they make or break a person. Perhaps, we would begin to understand; to pay attention to their importance.
In your own words - if someone who has never read the book asks you to describe this book in a few sentences - how will you?
The book emphasizes the decisions we take. Most times, we play gods with people's lives, and these decisions we take shape their lives, disrupt or transform the balance of nature. That is what Eyes of a goddess is about: a story told through the eyes of "one" and ruminating through the minds of "many".
How will you describe the lead character Njideka?
Njideka is a complex character. She plays two roles: A normal girl who faces the difficulties of life; who struggles to grow up in harsh conditions of both family and society. And then as a girl who lives life unsure of where she belongs, of how to comprehend the different choices life presents her with. Her strength lies in her ability to withstand harrowing circumstances; how she was able to let love overshadow pain and hatred. There ought to be a part of Njideka in everyone.
You story swiftly moves to different elements that occurred and affected the Igbo people - did you have to research these elements?
The setting was Anambra State, Nigeria, just after the military handed power to a democratic government. It was a rule that went bad in Anambra State. I have cousins, relatives, whose experiences are still as fresh as yesterday, though it is over ten years now. Schools were shutdown for months, civil servants were not paid salaries and it went from bad to worse. I remember visiting home and watching as my cousins, who attended the public schools, loitered around, lost touch with the already poor academic standard. Most of them sold recharge phone cards; while some joined the motor park business. It was a time in Nigerian history when you saw the light dim on ordinary people, who are also us. I wrote this book not only because I had watched circumstances shape people's lives , but because people's voices and cries for a savior were silenced by the clutter of corruption. And it is our job as writers to give a voice to the silenced spirits.

Average Customer Review: based on 36 reviews.Rating: Sherwood Retractable Compass Review - Scuba Gear Customer Reviews
I have this compass but need an additional clip and stainless ring. Can I get this from you? The goal is to switch this from BC to something else when needed (using the male/female clips).
Check in the Clips Section, there are many different types that might work. http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-98/Clips-and-Reels-Clips.html
What hemisphere(s) will this compass work in?
Hi Adam, This compass is northern hemisphere. They also sell a southern hemisphere verison. http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-15/016067/Sherwood-Retractable-Compass---Southern-Hemisphere.html
Does this compass actually have a luminescent face to be used for night diving? The one they sell on amazon sells for $77 and they say it does not so is this a different compass?
could you tell me the dimensions and if it will work in the caribean
Unfortunately the dimensions aren''t listed by the manufacturer. It is a standard sized retractable compass similar in size to just about all of them on the market. I will function in any ocean in the world. Most scuba diving navigation isn''t done using true north or south, but rather by taking readings and headings at the beginning of a dive and using reciprocal headings to return. Based on this use, it will work pretty much anyplace.
Can the module be taken out of the retractable mount, and then mounted in a wrist module? I am concerned I wont like the retractor. Or, is it somehow affixed to the retractor and cant be removed? Would you need a tool to remove it?
Hello Maureen, yes if you wanted to take out the compass and wear it on your wrist you would also need to order this wrist mount: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-67/016004/Oceanic-Wrist-Boot-For-XR-Compass.html. You would be able to mount that compass in this wrist unit.
This retractable compass is a must-have for every diver. Diving with a properly functioning compass is just as important as diving with a gauge and computer console. The Sherwood compass is liquid filled, features a top and side reading and gun-sight accurate navigation. To attach to your BC, you can choose from a plastic snap clip or a stainless steel split key ring. The retracting cable allows for easy use at desired length and then automatically retracts so it does not get in the way. This compass has a ratchet bezel with compass headings in 30 degree numbered increments and indicator marks for every 10 degrees. The bezel has twin-heading indicators for alignment and a lubber line across the face of the compass. The compass card is luminescent for low-light conditions.

Steve Smith scored a sparkling century and put on 128 for the sixth wicket with Brad Haddin to rescue Australia and push the hosts to 326 all out shortly before close of play on the first day of the fifth Ashes Test against England on Friday.
England, desperate to avoid a 5-0 series sweep, lost a wicket in the gloaming when Mitchell Johnson had Michael Carberry caught at leg slip for a duck, leaving captain Alastair Cook (seven) and nightwatchman James Anderson (1) at eight for one at stumps.
Smith was the final Australian wicket to fall for 115 and while his second century of the series put a thick layer of gloss on the day for the hosts, there was no doubt the momentum shifted with wicketkeeper Haddin's 90-ball 75.
Australia were well and truly on the ropes at 97 for five after England struck twice in the 15 minutes before lunch and then dismissed George Bailey for one within 10 minutes of the resumption.
Haddin, as he has in all four previous Tests when his team were in similarly precarious positions, came out oozing positivity and took the game to the bowlers with a barrage of aggressive strokes.
England contributed to their own demise by bowling short to a batsman who was clearly happy to pull and hook to the boundary all day with Ben Stokes (6-99) suffering particular punishment.
The torment for the tourists only deepened when paceman Boyd Rankin, one of three new caps in the side, hobbled off the field after lunch with what looked like a left hamstring strain.
The tall Irishman returned to bowl in the final session but lasted just one delivery before having to limp back off the field.
Haddin grabbed his fifth half century of the series before tea with a hurried single and Smith joined him with a half century of his own with a cover drive for four soon after the break.
Stokes got a measure of revenge when he ended Haddin's innings after 124 match-turning minutes, inducing an edge which Cook held in the slips.
That brought out Johnson, who stayed with Smith for an hour or so and 12 runs before holing out in the deep to substitute fielder Joe Root to give debutant leg spinner Scott Borthwick his first Test wicket.
Smith, though, charged inexorably towards his third Test century, teeing it up with a thunderous six off Borthwick to move to 99 and passing the

Brompton LTD has some interesting videos on their Website @ http://brompton.co.uk/education/videos.asp.
The first introductory one (also shown below) is posted here.
Who Does What At Brompton?
The rest of the videos are located at the "FIND OUT MORE" section below. I hope you find the videos as interesting as I did-even if you don't have a Brompton or even like the bike. Their layout and organization of their company and it's processes are similar to most any other well made manufactured product, be it bikes or anything else.
From Google's own pages concerning why this series did not pop up in their searches.
What is an unlisted video?
"......An unlisted video is a different type of private video. "Unlisted" means that only people who know the link to the video can view it (such as friends or family to whom you send the link). An unlisted video will not appear in any of YouTube's public spaces (such as search results, your channel, or the Browse page). An unlisted video is different to a private video in these ways:
you don't need a YouTube account to watch the video (you can see an unlisted video if someone sends you the video's link)
there's no 25 person sharing limit...."
So these videos are not too easily located or noticed by most folding bike fans.

Love this!
I love this eye mask. It's great that they do not press against your eyes or press down on your nose. I use it almost every night.
This mask is nicely made. It doesn't smoosh my eyes in all night which is so annoying. The edges where the nose lay let's in a little light, but it's still better than most masks I've tried. It also washed up real well through the gentle cycle my skin breaks out so I wash the masks once a week.
I LOVE it!!
This sleep mask is amazing !!! Doesn't hurt your eyes. The only thing is the velcro in the back of your head is a little built so sometimes is kind annoying.
In Love!
I got this for Christmas, and I love it! It's comfortable and completely black.
I am a sleep mask snob, so although this is adorable, I was skeptical when my boyfriend bought it for me. I have tried sooo many sleep masks, and I've never found one that didn't let in at least a tiny bit of light...UNTIL THIS ONE!!! I cannot rave enough about this, I will order a couple more because I never want to be without this thing. And I love the fact that it's raised over the eyes so it doesn't smash your eyelashes. Sooo comfy!!
