MCC assists displaced village in Tanzania
February 18, 2008
AKRON, Pa.— A small community in Tanzania, forced to relocate to an old courtroom nearby when an international mining company moved in, is receiving help from Mennonite Central Committee.
MCC has joined with the Christian Council of Tanzania (CCT) to provide food, clothing and blankets after the mining company, which owns the nearby Geita gold mine, informed the people in the community that they were going to explore for gold on their land.
The villagers filed an appeal in the High Court of Tanzania to receive just compensation, but before any action was taken the local authority and Tanzanian police force unexpectedly moved the people from their village.
The 258 men, women and children were moved to a courtroom in Aug. 2007 without adequate food, water, or sanitation and have been living there ever since.
Pastor John Magafu, who works for the CCT, read about the community's predicament in the newspaper on Sept. 8, 2007 and went to investigate. He said the village was demolished, and the villagers had lost their farm produce.
Rev. Dr. Leonard A. Mtaita, General Secretary of CCT, said that the situation needed quick action after their team investigated in December. The $1,000 given to the community by the mining company to purchase food had been used up.
In addition to the food, clothing and blankets, CCT also plans to advocate for the villagers by taking the issue to the Tanzanian government.
Deacon Jumanne Magiri, General Secretary of the Mennonite Church in Tanzania, says that the issue of mining contracts and the foreign plundering of Tanzania's resources are much bigger than the situation in Geita.

MARK FISCHER … It was great to join Elaine Fischer, my other talented colleague on the County Board of Commissioners, past winner and this year's contest judge Kiersten Bridger and Telluride Arts in honoring the late Mark Fischer with our 14th Poetry Prize in his name last week. The Steaming Bean hosted a great reading including local winners Elle Metrick of Norwood and Beth Paulson of Ouray, a Skype reading by a Colorado Springs winner, and the in-person word magic of first place winner Wayne Lee of Santa Fe.
ED QUILLEN … Ed died of a heart attack last weekend in Salida, where he and his wife and two daughters made their home over the last couple decades. A newspaper editor, founder of the monthly Colorado Central (still publishing), and a brilliantly witty rural columnist for the Denver Post, he cast a large shadow. His grasp of Colorado history was second to none. He successfully used humor to skewer right-wing ideas (and sometimes left-wing ones). He was uncompromising with the truth and unafraid to take positions at odds with many of his fellow citizens … For years he was one of the star speakers/participants in Western State College's Headwaters Conference (the school is set to change its name to Western State Colorado University this summer). His hotel room, thick with cigarette smoke, was often the haven for long, late-night discussions on a wide-ranging assortment of topics. All of which Ed would expound on with unique perspectives and withering arguments … He and Martha were generous too. More than once they invited me to sleep at their home in Salida, and in spite of the haze (I detest cigarette smoke – having grown up with smoking parents) I would gather with others in fascination and awe around their kitchen table for more brilliant discussions … He'd cleaned up his act of late. Had stopped smoking (mirable dictu!). And begun to seriously exercise. But the hard-living life of a journalist with its deadlines, public debates and passionate opinions caught up with him … Colorado has a lost a great one. And many of us have lost a dear friend.
SHARON SHUTERAN … Telluride is still reeling from the sudden passing of a local icon – our good county judge. The memorial on Saturday drew a large crowd to the Palm as we all tried to deal with losing someone who was quintessential Telluride. From the government of Bhutan to words of friends and family and an elegant eulogy from Rick Silverman, it helped us face the loss of one who had married community involvement with judicial reserve, fairness with compassion … But, even with the ceremony, it's still hard to believe we've lost her.
PEACE WALK … Join us Monday, June 11th at noon at the county courthouse for our monthly walk down Colorado Ave. for peace. Hard to believe two things – that we're still doing this (it's been over a decade!) and we're still at war.
JEB BERRIER … Heard rumors that our local Douglas "Faux" Fairbanks roasted me at the Telluride School graduation, even though I wasn't there to defend myself. The comedic cad! But who can take anyone seriously whose name rhymes with derriere? … Be on the lookout, actor man. Revenge is coming.
Blue as the solid ice
in Shelf Lake early June,
hard as tourmaline stone,
Blue sends me sliding
to a gate I cannot open,
though a part of me
could knock it down
faster than a shot
of brandy on
a finger-numbing day,
after hours of climbing
in the snow.
Maybe time never
takes the steam
out of this hot drink.
Maybe there's a root
that digs below,
keeps growing.
Maybe it's just
the ice blue gate
of your eyes.

Getting started
Being out with a baby is like starring in your own action-adventure movie: Will you be able to find a clean pacifier with one hand before she starts crying? Can you fold down the changing table in the gas station restroom and set up for business without letting baby or diaper bag touch the filthy floor? The right bag can make you a hero in just about any situation.
It should fit everything you'll need to take care of a babywhether for that emergency diaper change or a weekend at Grandma's. Besides diapers, it'll tote baby's extra clothes, snacks, and toys. Since you'll carry it everywhere you go, consider one large enough to hold some of your stuff, too. Many feature sections to hold your iPod, wallet, cell phone and more. Many bags, such as the Duo Deluxe Edition from Skip Hop, have specially designated areas for your cell phone, wallet and keyshelping to make sure they stay dry and you stay organized. The Emily Canvas from Storksak features a detachable inner bag (with a zipper) where you can stash makeup or other small items.
You could save money by using a bag you already own. Some parents find a structured tote like a laptop bag works well. But bags designed for hauling baby paraphernalia usually have more pockets--some up to 14. Plus they usually come standard with a washable diaper-change pad, insulated bottle pockets, compartments for baby wipes, and lightly padded shoulder straps. If you want to use your own bag, you can purchase something like the Pronto changing station from Skip Hop, which has a foldout changing pad and a pocket for wipes.
Keep your partner in mind when choosing a bag. One parent might prefer a backpack style to more evenly distribute the bag's weight, while another might like a messenger style. When it comes to fabric patterns, get one that neither of you will mind carrying. If you can't agree on one bag, get a second one--and stock them so you're both ready to head out the door.
Opt for a bag that leaves your hands free, such as a backpack, sling, or messenger-style with a diagonal strap. (See diaper-bag types.)
Many bags can convert into a backpack style. Others are very simple "sling" styles that are great for quick trips. The McKenzie Kids Messenger Bag is actually a small sling style with a pocket for diaper wipes under the front flap. The small Mothers Minder Sling Bag has a bungee cord attached to the front to store extra stuff. The JJ Cole System Bag 180 is a roomier messenger style that comes with its own "pod" to hold a pacifier.
A bag that allows your torso to bear the brunt of the weight you're carrying is better for your neck and shoulders. With this type of bag, you won't have to balance your baby in one hand and a bag in the other. A hands-free bag will also make it easier to juggle a stroller and shopping bags while keeping up with an energetic toddler--that'll be your baby in no time--when you run errands.
You can buy a bag designed to hang on your stroller's handlebar or clips that give you the same option with other bags, but we don't recommend this because the weight might cause the stroller to tip backward. .
The right bag for the right price
You can buy a perfectly chic yet durable and practical carryall for $35 to $40, such as California Innovations Rounded Tote Diaper Bag ($39.99) or Trend Lab's Messenger Bag ($29.98). Or you can spend hundreds for a designer or other high-end bag from Gucci, Kate Spade, or Juicy Couture. If you're looking for something less floral or feminine, there's an entire subindustry aimed at designing diaper bags for dads. Ju-Ju-Be carries the Be Hip messenger bag in slate and timber colors, for example. Storksak carries the Jamie bag made of cowhide and big enough to fit a laptop along with the nappies. And DadGear messenger bags can be found decorated with flames and skulls, if you're so inclined. Just keep in mind that a bigger investment might not deliver a bigger return in terms of convenience or durability. And remember that a diaper bag can get dirty and worn pretty quickly.
"Try to consider what your priorities are before you go out and buy a $500 bag," says Mary Carlomagno, a mother of two, professional organizer, and author of "The Secrets of Simplicity." "Trial and error is often what works when it comes to children. I have gone through a couple of different diaper bags, and half the time all you need is a diaper and a wipe. Go to a retailer who can explain the benefits of the various diaper-bag options. Don't invest too much, because you might want to get another one."

How to Hay Day the Forum Way
I'm just one person writing this. Comments are more than welcome. I don't know everything about Hay Day or trading, and am certainly not the most experienced forum member myself. I did this because I see a lot of redundant posting regarding the workings of trades and occasionally some misunderstandings. Although the vast majority of the posts are positive, helpful, polite, and effective, I thought that something like this could help us all out. This is mostly intended for those who are new to the forum, to help you navigate the scene in the most positive and effective way.
First and foremost, read the forum posting rules. Such things as posting external links, making racial or political comments, and sharing your email address are strictly forbidden. Before going anywhere else, go here: http://www.ipadforums.net/forum-rule...ease-read.html.
Create a signature that shows your Game Center ID and your current level in Hay Day, and remember to update it when you level up. Some players have hundreds of Hay Day friends; making yourself easier to locate will make your trades faster and smoother.
Introduce yourself as a new trader. Don't just jump in and expect others to fill your needs. Most people in the threads sincerely enjoy helping others. We hope you'll be a helper as well.
Get to know your surroundings. While we don't expect you to read through all past posts in the thread, we do hope you'll familiarize yourself with the environment. Everyone is willing to help, but no one wants to explain the basics over and over again.
Always use your manners. "Please" and "thank you" make a big difference. Practice common courtesy and be as willing to give as you are to receive. Know that sometimes it takes a while to get responses, either because people haven't seen your post or even because they may be working on getting what they need to help you. Also, remember that this forum includes people from all around the world. Be patient!
Be appropriate and relevant. Some threads are strictly for buying and selling, some do not allow friend requests, and others allow any general Hay Day discussion (like this one). Keep your post relevant to the thread. DO NOT post for the sake of increasing your post count. You'll be noticed in a negative way, and your posts will probably be removed by a moderator.
How to Trade
Trading on Hay Day is simple once you know the method.
If you want to get something or have something to sell, you create a new reply within the appropriate thread to tell others about it. Remember those manners!
When someone is interested in your offer they will reply to you either by quoting your post or by sending you a private message, or PM. If you're very new, you will not yet be able to send or receive PMs, but it won't take long before you're allowed that. When you do gain access to your private message box, remember to occasionally clear messages. There is a limit to how much storage you're allowed. You may also consider using an external chat medium. If you use one and want to invite someone to connect with you there, arrange it through private messages. Remember the rules of the forum, which prohibit the posting of private contact information. Most Hay Day folks use iPadForum's private message feature, though. Obviously, to accept someone else's offer you either reply to their post or send them a PM.
When you're the seller, you will let your buyer know that you are ready to sell and then do what we call "wheating." Wheating means placing one wheat for sale for one coin in the rightmost box in your roadside shop, intended for a specific buyer. Do not advertise! Watch this wheat, and when you see it disappear the buyer's name will appear where the wheat was. If this is the buyer you're planning to sell to, you may then place the agreed-upon item for sale in that same spot. (If the wrong buyer takes the wheat, don't continue at that time - communicate with your buyer and consider waiting a while.) When the agreed-upon quantity is reached, the deal is complete. If you're making a trade, then you will go to the other person's shop and watch for the wheat they'll place for you. Make your purchases quickly so that someone else doesn't get them, and stay there until the deal is done. Additionally, if something causes a delay or you're not sure how long ago the buyer got the wheat, place another wheat to ensure they are active and ready at that time before placing the planned item. Either person may be the first seller but generally if you're new around here you'll be expected to sell first.
Different players have different preferences with regard to prices. Some sell for the default price that appears when an item is selected for sale. This is the quickest route, because the buyer doesn't have to wait for the seller to raise or lower the price, and minimizes the chance that someone else will come through and purchase the item before the intended buyer. Others prefer to sell for the maximum price as protection against loss to unexpected buyers, or because they bought the item at maximum price themselves and want to break even, or simply because they need more coins. Some players have larger coin counts and are willing to lower the prices for their buyers. Be sure to discuss prices in your agreements prior to the exchange if it is important to you.
Like with prices, different players have different opinions on the value of trades. Discuss and agree upon the terms before proceeding with the deal. Most often trades are 1:1, but it's not unreasonable to expect that someone might want two of your jams for one of their mallets (for example). Some like to even out the costs. Again, make sure you agree to the terms. You're not locked into a deal you that you don't feel comfortable with but you are expected to at least communicate this to the other player. However, you cannot change your mind after part of the exchange has been made. Think before you act, and be ethical at all times.
Random Buyers, Lurkers, and Remedies
Sometimes, things don't go quite as planned.
As a passerby or otherwise not a part of a deal: When you're out visiting your neighbors, try to be conscious of wheated exchanges going on between other players. Don't buy someone else's one-coin wheat. If you see something in the rightmost spot that looks inviting, consider the possibility that it could be a planned trade, and don't take it. Often our fingers move more quickly than our brains, so sometimes people mistakenly buy things that were intended for someone else. If you suspect you bought something you shouldn't have, please go to the forum and find out. Maybe you got lucky and the item was there for anyone, but maybe not. If someone contacts you and lets you know you took something planned, common courtesy dictates you return the item to them or to the intended buyer. Above all, do not intentionally move in on a planned exchange and try to steal the items. Others will notice, and you'll find that soon no one will be willing to deal with you and you'll likely see your friend count go down. Ultimately you'll find that you gain more through honest trades than by sneaking around in hopes of snagging something good.
As the intended buyer: Let the seller handle it. Too many people contacting the unexpected buyer feels like an attack.
As a seller: If you're the seller whose item is purchased by someone other than the intended buyer, take a calm but proactive approach. Don't go to the forum and start shouting that someone stole your item; remember there's a chance that the buyer could be an unaware friend who just got lucky. If you recognize the name of the unexpected buyer and know they are a forum member, you may go to the forum and politely ask them to return the item. Send a private message, as not everyone sees every post in the thread. If you do not recognize the name as a forum member, mention it anyway so that others can be aware in case you've found a lurker. While there are those silent, unknown lurkers who hang out just waiting for their chance to weasel in on a sale, I believe there are many more innocent people who would respond positively when treated with kindness. You can call people out without making rash accusations. Remember that the majority of people who play Hay Day are not on the forums and are unaware of planned trading. It might be a big part of your game and still be no part of someone else's.
Remember that Hay Day is just a game, but it is played by real people.

Nothing against either Borwein, they are brilliant guys.
Against whom? The i guy or Borwein?
I do not understand what you have against him, exactly. Could you explain?
Depends on how you interpret a result like that.
Yes, he shows a sum that agrees with pi to over 1 billion places and then veers away.
Okay, just checking.
So did I.
No. What was it?
Surely you have seen that idiotic example the Borweins came up with?
You mean, they were specifically looking for a case when it doesn't work?

This is a major disaster . I can replicate the problem on three different computers, two running Ubuntu 11.10
and one running OpenSUSE 11.4, and in three different browsers.
One feedback I received from Google is that Flash 11 r2 is working in Chromium 19 development, but
I don't have access to that repository on my systems.
Thank yoiu
Define "not working".
Hi, and thank you for your reply. By not working, I mean that, in the player screen in Youtube, the screen is black. There's no image,
and there's no control ribbon on the bottom. There's no indication that the video is playing, no circle of dots to indicate that it is loading, no > or || control, no volume control, no resolution control; no size control, .. nothing, just a black screen. Right clicking does nothing.
There's no error message (such as Aw snap!) and no puzzle piece logo to show that a plugin is not working. If I disable adobe flash
and replace it with gnash or swf-flash, I can sometimes get the flash to load and play, but sometimes I get missing codec errors (h.264 mpeg). I have codecs installed, andgstreamer installed, the -good versions, and not the -bad or -ugly versions
I hope that this helps
Thank you for the details. Unfortunately I know close to nothing about Linux, so I am not really able to help until someone from the Adobe team can look at your problem after the weekend.
If I see a similar problem on Windows, one of the first things I usually recommend is to look for updated graphics drivers.
would you mind to disable "Hardware Acceleration"?
right click on the flash content and select "Settings..."
click the first tab and uncheck the box for "Hardware Aceeleration"
refresh the page and try the video again. thanks...
I just encountered the same problem. Flash (188.8.131.52) no longer works on FireFox 11 but works on Internet Explorer.
I'm trying to get Wimpy Player to work. After updating Flash Player, I can only see Wimpy in IE. Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera don't see the Flash Player and want me to install "missing" plugin(s). When I try to "install" I get initialization failure probably since the activex and exe are already on my system.
It doesn't seem to see the exe.
What can I do to fix it?
It finally decided to work! This is after rebooting Windows 7 about 6 times since I installed it! Go figure...
Wow... I spoke too soon! It's back to not working.

Proposed memorial smells fishy
IRVINE, Calif. — Animal activists want a California roadside memorial sign to honor fish killed during a container truck crash.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals volunteer Dina Kourda told Irvine's street maintenance chief the sign would remind drivers that fish value their lives and feel pain. About 1,600 pounds of saltwater bass died on Oct. 11 when the truck hauling them to market got into a three-way crash.

For an approximation, check Terry's store price. He won't ship, but it's an indication of what is a fair price for the thing. Pretty much any Toto beats any of the older toilets out there...I have no experience with the Clayton, but do with Toto in general, and it has all been positive. At one time, Toto did offer a builder's grade toilet, it was better than most, but I don't think they do anymore in this market.

Shumlins finalize divorceStaff Report | April 03,2013MONTPELIER — After separating in 2009, Gov. Peter Shumlin and his wife, Deborah Holway, have finalized their divorce.
Shumlin, 57, first shared news of the divorce publicly in an interview Monday with the online news outlet BuzzFeed. Shumlin spoke to the outlet at its New York City office while he was in town on work as chairman of the Democratic Governors Association.
Administration spokeswoman Susan Allen on Wednesday confirmed the divorce was finalized in March in Windham County Family Court. The couple, who had formerly shared a home in Putney, have two college-age daughters.
"Even though divorce is a sad occasion, Deb and I will be forever blessed by many extraordinary years together and two remarkable daughters," Shumlin and Holway said in a joint written statement. "No parents could ask for a greater gift than Olivia and Becca, and Deb and I are grateful that we remain friends and will continue to share our strong family. We make this statement in light of my public office, but Deb and I will have no further comment on this private issue."MORE IN This Just InTODAY'S WEATHER MINUTE: Soil beneath Greenland ice sheet predates dawn of mankind, Hitch faces true Hollawood problem head-on, Mark Twain on school boards, all in today's minute. 0Rutland Herald content editor Rich Alcott shares local weather information and easily digestible...

Happy New Year
Is it just me, or does it seem like the years fly by faster and faster? So how was your 2008? I would have to say mine was very strange to say the least, but never a dull moment. Let's all get out our pen and paper and write our new years resolutions. I'm pretty good at guessing, so let's see if I can at least get one on your list- Lose weight, find a better job, save more money, have a kid, fall in love, travel somewhere exotic, volunteer, learn something new, quit smoking. So, there you go, I know I have at least one on that list. I'm not taking any chances that 2009 is going to be a crappy year, so I will be cooking the traditional Southern good luck meal- black-eyed peas (symbolizes coins), collard greens (symbolizes dollars, I will cook extra), and cornbread (not a clue). I know there are customs all throughout the world to bring luck, I thinks Italians eat risotto, and in certain Asian countries egg rolls represent gold bars (maybe I'll cook a couple of those).

The panel subjects and panelists for the 16th Annual Roger Ebert's Film Festival have been announced, including Patton Oswalt, Brie Larson, Steve James, and more.
Julie Delpy, who usually graces very serious films, plays a screwball heroine with a ditzy family in "2 Days in New York," a continuation of her successful 2007 comedy "2 Days in Paris." She stars, directs and is the co-writer, setting the film's goofy tone. Here's a wonderful actress who has worked with Kieslowski, Jarmusch, Tavernier, Godard and Agnieszka Holland, and you'd think her only influence was Woody Allen.
In an admirable way of briefing us on her character Marion's story so far, she opens with a puppet show being performed for her small son. This is the child she produced with the Adam Goldberg character in "2 Days in Paris," and since that film was about the disintegration of their relationship, it's no surprise he's history. She's back home in New York, living with a radio talker named Mingus (Chris Rock), who has a small daughter. They have a happy household, until her family arrives from France to meet Mingus.
We met her father Jeannot (Albert Delpy, her real father) in the earlier film. He is a friendly and well-meaning old man with a genius for being a fish out of water even when he's in water. Even worse is her sister Rose (Alexia Landeau), jealous and snippy, and Rose's boyfriend, Manu (Alex Nahon), who bodes trouble because he was Marion's former boyfriend. As we recall from "2 Days in Paris," Marion has had a lot of former boyfriends; the Adam Goldberg character grew alarmed at how often she seemed to run into them in her old hometown.
Rose's rivalry expresses itself in many ways, from bitchy sniping at a family dinner, to an unsettling custom of walking around the apartment mostly undressed. Is she trying to seduce Mingus, make Manu jealous or simply exposing herself for a horny neighbor (Dylan Baker)? She gets nowhere with Mingus, played by Chris Rock as the most stable and sane member of the cast. His refuge is to retreat into his man cave and have thoughtful conversations with a life-sized cardboard cutout of Barack Obama.
Marion, I should have mentioned, is an artist, and one of the excuses for the family visit is a big exhibit of her work. Most of it is physical, but the centerpiece is bold and conceptual: She has auctioned off her soul. One of the film's strangest scenes is her conversation with the man who buys it, portrayed by Vincent Gallo, playing the role as Mephistopheles to Delpy's Faust. (Now there's a sentence that may never have been written before.) Gallo has undeniable screen presence, but here I believe Delpy didn't think through how best to use it. As a film-writing exercise, I suggest a series of scenes between Gallo and various characters whose souls he has purchased.
Julie Delpy has particularly impressed me over the years. She began with intelligence, beauty and charm, she rose to the challenges of some of the leading filmmakers of her time, she and Ethan Hawke co-starred in Richard Linklater's immortal "Before Sunrise" (1995) and "Before Sunset" (2004), and she enrolled in the celebrated film school of New York University. Oh, and she is a singer-songwriter. Seeing her father Albert here may explain some of that. He and her mother, Marie Pillet, were leading avant-garde actors and directors on the French stage.
All very well, but what impresses me more is that she has a lighthearted way about her and takes chances in comedies like this. It is hard enough to be good at all, but to be good in comedy speaks for your character.

Really really good Pizza and we shoudl know. :) – We're from Chicago. So we are definite Pizza snobs. We discovered Babe's because a friend from Chicago said it was the only good and real pizza in the area. Not only were we impressed, but I think babe's is one of the top 3 Pizzas I have ever tasted in my life. We go back EVERY time we are in the Tampa area. Yummmmm-mmmy!
Good Pizza, BUT........ – We have been going to Babe's for the past 22 years, the owner knows us by name. My son even worked there. But like some of the other posts, the manager there is horrible. The way she treats the staff is offensive to them as well as the customers. The food has always been good and we enjoyed our Friday nights there, but I will not eat in there again as long as "she" is still there. The place wasn't like that when the owners were running the show.
Best pizza! – My family and I have been going here for many years and absolutely love the pizza! Everyone that works here is extremely friendly and knows my family by name! All I can say is if you want delicious pizza go to babes!!!!! It really is the best!
My Favorite Hometown Pizza Place! – I've gone to Babe's Pizza since I was a kid. From the cozy, familiar atmosphere, the inviting smiling faces, to the unique, great food.... You're probably wondering how pizza can be unique, well I've lived and traveled all over the U.S. and can't remember another place that offered a double decker pizza. I'm happy they're still around to fill my craving for their famous double decker and greek salad. Those are my two favorites! The dressing they use for the salad is homemade (I think) and one of my favorites. If you haven't tried them yet, you're missing out. They aren't stingy with the toppings either, so when you order your pizza, be prepared to use silverware. I hope that this review is helpful and you experience the wonder of Babe's Pizza soon!
The best tasting pizza around. We have "never" had a bad meal there (10+years). We, actually, did not go there as often as we do now - until our former server from another local rest. moved to this "great family spot". Salads are always crisp and fresh. Pizza is ZEE BEST. My son is attending college at FSU and upon each visit home he HAS TO GO TO BABES. He wants to fit in a visit this weekend during his sister's wedding. We we will see. Until our next visit - Love this place.
What a fantastic Pizza – Every year when we go to Florida we make sure we stop at Babe's Pizza. The service is fantastic, friendly and well supervised. The Pizza is out of this world. Sometimes when we arrive a little late we may have to wait a little because the food is so good and it seems everyone enjoys going there. The main supervisor always remembers us and the owner always stops by and says hello. Thats a good friendly feeling in itself. Congratulations to Babe's Pizza for being the best friendly Pizza house in Florida
I PUKED.. SAVE YOURSELF (not like the old days) – I can not begin to explain how sick this food made me. I could not go to work for two days, that sick. Either it was the uncooked dough or the soupy sauce or the heaping amount of butter on the garlic bread, never been sicker. Besides the crappy staff the management is worse using language i do not approve of at all. I felt like i was rushed as soon as I entered the cramped restaurant, to me a poor excuse for a pizza place. I would all around say No Way, it is to expensive and not worth your business. Not good, get a new Manager. I guess this places values have truly been lost over the years (or just the bad judgement in managers over the last ten or so years).Very Sad, o well. What happened to the Fun Babes??
NO WAY!!!! HORRIBLE Food and Service – Talk About TRAINWRECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This pizza takes way to long to prepare and cook. Be willing to wait at least an hour for a pizza. Do not be surprised if the food is cold and and messy looking. The guys making pizza do not wear gloves and the wait staff seems to busy, like they can not handle the "huge" Restaurant. Management is not any better probably even worse, no consideration for," the customer is wright". Here an argument will ensue over poor ingredients (Do not try salad's) such as wet and or brown lettuce and old slimy cucumbers. I will never return due to the level of disrespect that was endured while trying to enjoy a night out with my family. I blame this horrid experience on the lack of wholesome management. The blonde is a poor excuse for a server, very short when ordering and no personalty what so ever. For a so called "Family Restaurant" the only family vibe i got was from the single cart train at the ceiling of the shack they call babes. And thats being nice at best. Somebody Fire The Blonde then maybe you will get some business.
RUDE RUDE RUDE (do I have to give them a star?) – To start off the menu is small and old not to mention dirty with sauce and god only knows what all over it. The inside of the tiny building needs some work done as well as the outside. I think the staff is plain RUDE i cant stress it enough although the manager is worst of all. The blonde lady is someone i would not mind if i never saw again or heard for that matter. She constantly yelled at employees in the open , not afraid that customers would hear her obscenities. FAMILY RESTAURANT???? You might want to check it out before you take little ones. I for one would never allow my kids around such a loose cannon.
The pizza is also horrible the crust was not crust at all a crust but more doughey, like it was not cooked enough. The food took about an hour and when we finally were served our pizza was luke warm at best. The blonde "Manager" was no where to be found and after 20 mins of waiting with a now frigid pizza it is clear we have inconvenienced her as she stomps off.
To sum it up, i do not know why any sane person would go to such a dump. It is amazing to me that people that work for tips can and would treat people in such a disposal and ill-mannered demeanor. NEVER AGAIN.
Do not waste your money NO GOOD – Even the kids don't like this pizza... just like the manager says "you are better off going to Waffle House you will get better service". I have to agree with that attitude, why does this blonde bitch still have a job? Servers and Manager are extremely rude and it always seems like you are bothering them to be there.
The economy can not be as bad as the food is.
The sauce is watery and very bland.The crust is hard like a cracker or stale chips. Save 50$ and go to Pizza Hut i could not even enjoy the "famous double decker" yeah right it was not even cooked all the way and still took close to an hour. I told the blonde lady about how i drove an hour to try this pizza and how disappointed i was and she stormed off like it was some how my fault that my pizza was not cooked. This place needs new MANAGEMENT!!

Active Standard ASTM F2685 | Developed by Subcommittee: F32.03
Book of Standards Volume: 13.02
Significance and Use
This guide establishes the minimum standard for training land search team members as it relates to their general, field, and search-specific knowledge, skills, and experience. A person trained to this guide is a Level II land search team member.
Every person who is identified as a Level II land search team member shall have met the requirements of this guide.
This guide is to be used by individuals and agencies having jurisdiction that wish to identify the minimum training standards for Level II land search team members
It is up to the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) to determine the depth or detail of training to meet these needs.
Nothing in this standard precludes an AHJ from adding additional requirements for its own members.
This guide by itself is not a training document. It is only an outline of the topics required for training or evaluating a Level II land search team member, but it can be used to develop a training document or program.
This guide does not stand alone and must be used with the referenced documents to provide specific information needed by a Level II land search team member or AHJ.
This guide can be used to evaluate a book or other document to determine if its content meets the necessary topics for training a Level II land search team member. Likewise, the guide can be used to evaluate an existing training program to see if it meets the requirements in this guide.
The knowledge and skills requirements presented in the following sections are not presented in any particular order and do not represent a training sequence.
Except where a physical skill needs to be shown, it is up to the AHJ, instructor, evaluator, or tester to determine the best way to evaluate a person's knowledge. This may be by written exam, oral exam, demonstration, or by some combination of the three.
1. Scope
1.1 This guide establishes the minimum training standard for Level II land search team members as it relates to their general, field, and search-specific knowledge, skills, and experience.
1.2 A Level II land search team member searches on the surface of the land only. This guide does not provide the minimum training requirements for searching in partially or fully collapsed structures, in or on water, in confined spaces, or underground (such as caves, mines, and tunnels).
1.3 A Level II search team member can be utilized as: a field team leader, a single resource for sign cutting, a hasty searcher, and to establish segments in the field. No knots, rope, litter, or other rescue skills are required of a Level II.
1.4 Level II search team members are eligible to be members of type II search teams or crews as defined in Classification F 1993.
1.5 Type II teams which may utilize personnel trained to this standard are Kind A (wilderness), Kind B (urban), and Kind C (mountainous).
1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory requirements prior to use.
1.7 Further training may be required before a Level II land search team member can actually participate on a particular kind of search team, depending on the authority having jurisdictions regulations or policies.
1.8 Land search team members are categorized by levels in which level one is the basic or entrance level and the numbers increase as the requirements increase.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.

I only assesses 3 points since the others I have unfortunately not had the opportunity to evaluate them. We did not have access to this apartment. It was already occupied by the caretaker who was not aware of this location. It was very frustrating not having this apartment since we had our weekend in Montreal accordingly. I live far away, I live in Mont-Tremblant.Read More

The Magic start slower than Zambonis, waltzes and old dial-up computers.
Tip-off was at 7:11 p.m. Wednesday night.
The Magic didn't show up until roughly7:15 p.m., scoring their first basket after 4 minutes and 30 seconds expired.
By that time, the Hawks already had 10 unanswered points, and the game was effectively over.
The Magic hadn't quite awakened from their slumber as Atlanta pushed the lead to 16-2.
You heard about a late-arriving crowd. This is a late-arriving team.
"We can't afford to sleepwalk into a game," shooting guard Arron Afflalo said.
But that's what they've been doing most of the season.
What to do?
I detect a lineup change --- or the threat of a lineup change by coach Jacque Vaughn.
Rookie small forward Maurice Harkless could be replaced by rookie DeQuan Jones or shooting guard J.J. Redick.
And center Nik Vucevic should be aware that the quick hook is a possibility, giving way to Energizer Bunny Gustavo Ayon.
Neither Harkless or Vucevic are fiery, aggressive personalities. Then again, they are crazy young: Harkless 19 and Vucevic 22.
Harkless, in fairness, is starting with injured Hedo Turkoglu sidelined and he doesn't get many offensive opportunities (although he did against Altanta, misfiring in his first three attempts.).
Vucevic, in his second year, is inconsistent and doesn't aggressively demand the ball.
So, the offense sometimes falls heavily early on the other starters --- point guard Jameer Nelson, Afflalo and power forward Big Baby Davis. They were 3-of-7 after the first period.
Vaughn sent in Redick for Harkless with the score 10-0 and Andrew Nicholson for Vucevic with the count 16-4, Hawks.
The Magic crept back into the game, but never got closer than eight points in the second half, buried in bad shooting and inexcusable turnovers.
Now we come to the part of the blog where you ask yourself this question:
Are the rebuilding Magic all about developing young players or winning as many games as possible?

'Co-creation arts' group plans housewarming at new Vinton Street site
The Apollon, a local theater, food and performance group, has a new home in Omaha's burgeoning Vinton Street district.
The Apollon — pronounced "apple-on" — will serve food, performances and art exhibitions in its new space; director Ryan Tewell described them as "creatively staged party entertainments."
The new location, 1801 Vinton St., will open with a party on May 18 as part of the Vinton Street Creativity Festival. The opening celebration will take place that day from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
"I'm fairly certain that we made every mistake available to us, but we also became relative experts in this burgeoning field of co-creation arts," Tewell said. "Those of us who set out on this journey together refused to believe the conventional wisdom that we'd have to leave for one of the coasts in order to do anything great.
"I've always been stubborn, and I wanted to do something great in Omaha."

DANCING review of Mark Morris's "Socrates." Erik Satie's oratorio "Socrate" (1917-18) has simple dynamics and restrained orchestration. The lyrics are excerpts from Plato's Symposium, Phaedrus, and Phaedo. Mark Morris's dance "Socrates," performed at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, is as chaste, noble, and Greek as its music. It begins with a man silhouetted in the pose of "The Dying Gaul." Plato's text is sung by French tenor Jean-Paul Fouchécourt, accompanied on piano by Colin Fowler. During Alcibiades' speech, Morris unleashes fifteen dancers in Greek tunics designed by Martin Pakledinaz. The dancers resemble figures on the frieze of a Greek temple. No dance company is more of a piece—one instrument—than Morris's. This becomes symbolic in "Socrates." The dancers are a fellowship. In the second movement, Socrates and a young student take a walk. Mime now enters the dance. Dancers form larger groups, and penetrate deeper into the stage space. In the final movement, Socrates is about to be executed. The musical beat becomes stronger, and the dance now includes emphatic mime. Five or ten of the dancers perform the gesture. The scene is both humble and sophisticated. Morris gives us triangular formations, to remind us of the classical pediment. Revered art works of the past are invoked in order to link the new to the old. The pure, white-light nobility we see is impressive for its rarity in Morris's canon. At the end, all the dancers become Socrates, lie down, and die. All of them except Dallas McMurray, who hops around among the corpses and flies into the wings. The writer believes this escapee stands for Plato's heritage, which could not be put to death.
Mark Morris, Satie, and Socrates.
