I purchased this rug in ivory for my kitchen. The colors and design are very attractive. However, although it says "outdoor rug," I thought it would be more like a carpet with a low pile. Instead, it is a loop rug, which is not as nice. Given the material, I would have expected to pay less for this rug. I will look more carefully next time.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Love it! After I set it up outdoors we got a weeks worth of rain and then had landscaping done. Very messy! It tolerated both very well and cleaned up like brand new! It makes our sitting area look fresh and it's softer than most outdoor area rugs. I had to double check and make sure I really ordered an outdoor rug. Colors are beautiful. I got it in the ivory background. Currently ordering a larger one to go under our outdoor dining set! Takes a little while to dry after it gets wet but all rugs do esp since we live in a very humid climate. I am enjoying it!RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Love the rug looks great on my front porch. Took less than a week to arrive and free shipping. This was my third rug from rugsusa and I love everyone of them.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I love this rug, I bought it to use in my Laundry Room, and it looks great. I thought it might be a little thicker, but I had to remind myself, it is a outdoor rug. I love it, the colors are just what I was looking for. Thanks RugsusaRECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I boug ht the Ivory 3'7" x 5'6" one for a sittin g area on my boyfri end's porch . It ende d up being move d to the door way as large door mat and I am shock ed how clean it staye d!

It's been outsi de for 5 mont hs throu gh 3 seas ons now and it's still lookin g great . The packa ging was done well too beca use when it first arrive d, the base ment which it was store d in flood ed and this didn't even get wet! Other revie wers menti oned that it does n't lay flat beca use it's rolled up really tightl y but if you roll it the other way and set a coupl e stone s or weig hts on it for a day, it will go away . I also got larger (abou t doubl e) Princ e Caspi an' from this manu factur er and beca use it was heav y, it didn't have the rollin g probl em. It work s great for indoo rs, surpri singly soft and warm for an outdo or rug.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I like the rug. The customer service at this company stinks and I will never order anything from them again. I ordered this rug and wanted to change the size. So I called and talked to some idiot in customer service and she told me I could cancel order and then reorder rug in the size I wanted. Well long story short she never did cancel the order so the rug was already shipped. I am so glad I didn't reorder another rug right away because then I would have had two rugs. Idiots.......................RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Looks even better in person than it does on the picture. Colors are very vibrant! Only downside is that the rug is rolled so tight upon arrival that it will be awhile before it lays completely straight. Small price to pay for such a nice rug though!!RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Bought this for my kitchen. I am so happy with how soft it is. Doesn't seem like an outdoor rug. Nice and colorful, but not too bright. If it cleans up nicely with all of our use, it will be perfect.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
great quality and fun design...loving this rug! The only problem is that the rug has been rolled up for so long that it isnt laying flat yet. But, this will go away in time. Not even worrying about it!

I purchased the ivory and it looks amazing with the dark brown and kiwi patio furniture...all my friends comment on how "pulled together" the outdoor rug makes the patio feel, like a second living room....many are going out to get their own. I live in very high humidity at the beach, and so far it's holding up very well...not showing any dirt or wear or spills. :-)RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
The colors are vivid and beautiful. I got the khaki version and it looks great on our patio. Shipping time was quick and quality is even better than expected. I would totally recommend this to anyone looking to spruce up their outdoor space.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Had a little difficulty placing order via internet-had to call but quality,delivery and service was excellent
Excellent prices for quality rugs!! I bought the 6'7"x9'6" and matching 3'7"x5'6" for the same price of 1 outside rug elsewhere. I purchased the ivory background and the colors look great with my kiwi green patio cushions.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

KSC Purchasing Manual
The Keene State College Purchasing Office, under the guidance of the University System of New Hampshire Board of Trustees policies and procedures, seeks the development and implementation of effective and ethical procurement practices, principals and techniques, through continuing education, publication and networking opportunities, resulting in the timely procurement of quality goods and services for the College.INTRODUCTION
The Purchasing Office attempts to serve you in a professional and expeditious manner. From time to time we may offer possible alternatives to items you have requested, or suggest how the cost of doing business may be minimized. The Purchasing Office exists to research products, services, vendor qualifications and usage to develop contracts for you. We mediate disputes with vendors, expedite orders, dispose of surplus items, file claims, seek legal advice and serve you in many other ways.
Centralized purchasing exists to save money and ensure conformance to generally accepted business principles, USNH Purchasing rules and regulations, and public law. The Keene State College Purchasing Office operates under the University System of New Hampshire guidelines, as established by the USNH Board of Trustees. The Purchasing Office reports directly to the Associate Vice-President for Finance and Planning. We subscribe to the National Association of Educational Buyers and as such, have adopted their Code of Ethics. (See EXHIBIT A) Our group meets regularly to solve problems and discuss methods to improve our performance.
It is our hope that this manual will answer common purchasing questions and enable all departments to buy goods and services in a timely manner. As policies change, the Purchasing Office will distribute updates to each department for inclusion in this text.
The Purchasing Office is located in Fiske Annex on Winchester Street. Office hours are from 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM, and we are willing and available to discuss your requests for purchases with you throughout the business day. You may reach us by phone at 603-358-2493.
We ask you for your cooperation and advance planning in order to better serve you.
Purchasing is a vital part of the College's operation. In this section and others, there will be some general statements quoted from the College and University Business Administration, National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO); 1974.
Some of the significant advantages of centralized purchasing are:
1. Definite economies resulting from the pooling and integrated overall planning of the common requirements of various departments.
2. Development of standard specifications for the common commodities purchased, resulting in more uniform quality and less variety of materials, supplies and equipment.
3. Better budgetary and financial control of departments' expenditures.
4. Development of qualified personnel through specialization in purchasing.
5. Reduction in administrative costs through elimination of multiple purchasing staffs, records and procedures.
6. Reduction in inventories because of closer supervision regarding the quantity of materials on each purchase order and greater utilization of the available supply of materials through transfers and substitutions.
7. Prompt delivery and better service by suppliers, resulting from more careful selection and better follow-up systems.
8. Benefits of competition, as a result of improved market studies and other research.
9. Better public relations, as a result of consistent and equitable treatment
of vendors.
The current scope of duties performed by the KSC Purchasing Office include the following:
1. Prepare, with the cooperation of user departments, delivery schedules, quality and quantity specifications for items and services to be purchased.
2. Provide user departments with current information on new products and services, alternative materials and costs.
3. Encourage competition among vendors through negotiation, competitive bidding and contract buying.
4. Insure that purchase orders and contracts contain all necessary conditions, such as guarantees, warranties, governmental regulations, shipping instructions, free on board points (f.o.b.), credit terms and discounts.
5. Develop records as needed to determine requirements of the institution for supplies, services and equipment.
6. Arrange for control and disposal of surplus equipment and supplies, salvage and scrap.
7. Explore and use possible advantages of inter-university, consortia, or cooperative purchasing programs. (NACUBO)

3.3.1 Requisition Procedures
The Banner requisition is the document used to request the purchase of goods or services. Instructions for entering the Banner requisition are in the Banner Manual. To eliminate the possibility of error and to ensure that you receive the correct items, requisitions MUST have complete and full information. Clear and concise specifications and information will expedite the ordering, receiving and invoicing processes. Avoid using abbreviations, as this can cause confusion and result in receiving the wrong items. If the description is too long for the commodity line, go to OPTIONS, click on ITEM TEXT, do a NEXT BLOCK and continue the description of the item that is being purchased. Do not use commodity lines with $0 as they can not be processed in Banner.
Once all the description has been entered, save the information and exit back to the commodity section of the requisition. If a department should wish to check the status of a requisition and knows the number, they can go to FOIDOCH, type REQ, tab, type the number, NEXT BLOCK and it will show the status. Departments will also see if a purchase order has been issued, an invoice has been paid and a check has been processed.
3.3.2 Quoted Prices From Supplier
Any time you have a price or verbal quote from a supplier, it must be forwarded to the KSC Purchasing Office.
3.4.1 Purchase Order Procedure
Purchase Orders are assigned to requisitions once the requisition has gone through the approval process. The only copy of a purchase order that is printed is the vendor copy. There are, however, some exceptions when a department will pick up the purchase order in the Purchasing Office. These exceptions are:
3.4.2 Emergency Purchases
Under normal circumstances the Purchasing Office processes all documents within a 48 hour turn-around time. If a department has an emergency order, we will issue a confirming number over the phone. When this is done we require that the paperwork be in the Purchasing Office within 48 hours.
Although emergencies sometimes occur through failure of equipment or needs that cannot be anticipated, frequent emergency or confirmation orders may indicate poor planning, coordination and organization. CORRECTIVE MEASURES MUST BE TAKEN BY THE ORDERING DEPARTMENT TO REDUCE FREQUENT OCCURRENCES OF EMERGENCIES.
3.4.3 Authorizations
The Purchsing Office is the only office authorized to commit USNH funds for goods or services using a purchase order or through the issuing of the college PCard. The exception to this is the purchase of real estate, investments and insurance, which require the signatures of the Vice-President, President and Treasurer. Do not order goods or services from any off-campus source without first obtaining an authorized purchase order or using a College approved PCard. Departments prepare the Requisition, and the Purchasing Office will be responsible for preparing, printing, signing the Purchase Order and sending it to the vendor.
Remember: A requisition is not to be used for ordering goods and services. Only a purchase order or PCard does this.
All purchases for a grant must have the approval of the project director.
All equipment purchases for a department must have the approval of the Dean/Director, Vice-President for that area and the President. A signed equipment authorization form must accompany the request. Any item that has a unit cost of $5,000.00 or more is considered equipment with the exception of software. (See Form D instructions (6.3))
Keene State College has been authorized by the University System of New Hampshire Purchasing Office to issue Standing Purchase Orders.
All Standing Orders have a maximum limit of $5,000.00 unless it is a current KSC contracted Vendor. Standing Orders should be requested if your department plans to use the vendor frequently during the year. An individual item that costs over $1,000.00 or has a life of two (2) or more years cannot be purchased against a Standing Order.
Departments request Standing Orders by typing the word "Standing" in the comments section of the requisition.
Type the purpose of the standing order in the commodity line, i.e., Catering Services for FY 'XX. In Item text, type the name(s) of the person(s) who will have authority to order goods/services against the standing order.

6 Online Dating Mistakes You Must Avoid
Recently on MensFitness.com, I was asked to chime in on some of the huge mistakes both men and women were making in their online dating profiles. As an online dating expert and one who has studied the industry since its infancy, the list could have easily jumped to 50 items. Meredith Bodgas selected her top 10 favorites for the story, 10 Little Ways to Kill Your Online Dating Game. We were glad to contribute to the story.
1. DON'T include a laundry list of turnoffs in your profile.
No one wants to date a guy who's too judgmental. Instead, mention the traits you do want in a girlfriend. You'll seem way less negative.
2. DON'T Say you want a "drama-free" woman.
It's a cliché that will not only turn a woman off, but it sends the message that you've got excess baggage regarding your ex. Most women will realize you have unresolved issues from past relationships and probably take a pass. Instead, stick to naming the positive qualities you seek in a mate or a date.
3. DON'T Mention sex in your profile.
Include that, and the ladies may think that you're looking for a hook up. Worried you'll wind up with a prude? Don't. Women know that intimacy's part of the package if the relationship moves forward.
4. DON'T Start IMing right away.
Many women don't like receiving IMs from men whose profiles they haven't read yet. So start the dialogue with an e-mail to give her a chance to check out your details. And hold off on IMing until you've exchanged a few e-mails. It's a digital courtship and you need to know the rules to play the game and win.
5. DON'T Tell a woman she's hot.
Focusing on the physical makes a woman feel you're not interested in getting to know the real her. Mention something else you admired about her profile if you want your email to be taken seriously.
6. DON'T Wait too long to ask her out.
I believe you should take your relationship from online to offline after a few e-mails, otherwise, you'll end up with a digital pen-pal, which isn't quite the point of online dating. If there's chemistry after one phone chat, set a date to meet in person.

Moon Tae-jong, better known as Jarod Stevenson in the States, recently participated in the 2011 FIBA Asia Championship games representing South Korea after having received dual citizenship (South Korea, U.S.) a few months ago. This year, Korea placed third behind China and Jordan with an overall record of 7-2. The small forward is also a member of the Korean Basketball League's ET Land Elephants.
Although some question his sincerity in joining the team, Moon said that he's proud to play for Korea: "I will try my best to represent Korea and help us get to the Olympics. It's an honor to play for my mother's country, and the place of my birth." Garnering praise from many, including Hur Jae, coach of the Korean National Team, Moon may play a large role in Korea's pursuit of a spot in the Olympics.
Check out some highlights from the bronze medal game against Philippines (Moon makes a nice three-pointer around 1:04)!

Restaurants cope with gas outage
Some close, others offer limited menu
The Inn on Fifth
699 5th Avenue South, Naples, FL
NAPLES — Most days, Phil McCabe doesn't need all five full bathrooms at his home on Gulf Shore Boulevard in Naples. But Friday wasn't most days.
A ruptured natural gas line in Fort Myers had hotels all over Southwest Florida apologizing to guests for cold showers and scrambling to keep clean sheets on their beds on a busy tourist weekend.
McCabe, the owner of the Inn on Fifth on Fifth Avenue South, took hospitality a step further, offering his home's powder room provisions as a less chilling alternative — one 20-minute time slot at a time.
Inn on Fifth guest Joe Brannigan put his razor and shaving gel in a plastic bag and happily climbed into the hotel's black Cadillac Escalade with his wife, Claire, for the shuttle ride to salvation a few blocks away.
Brannigan, a state senator from Maine, said he didn't think a cold shower would have been that bad, but couldn't resist McCabe's offer.
"The water's not very cold here compared to home," Brannigan said.
The Brannigans shrugged off the inconvenience, but McCabe braced for disaster as the cancellations started coming in late Friday afternoon to 86-room hotel with no word on when the gas would be back on.
"It is a crisis, it really is," McCabe said.
Besides his bathrooms doing double duty, a housekeeper was busy turning McCabe's oversized washer and dryer into a back-up hotel laundry room.
The gas line break crippled some hotels but spared others that either didn't rely on gas service or used propane.
Marco Island, which is not supplied with natural gas, was open for business as usual, according to the Marco Island Chamber of Commerce.
"We're fine," Chamber administrative coordinator Donna Niemczyk said.
The Marco Island Marriott Beach Resort pitched in to help its sister properties in Naples, including the Ritz-Carlton beach and golf resorts.
The Marriott is taking 20,000 pounds of laundry per day from the Ritz and has made rooms available for guests staying at the Ritz and LaPlaya in Naples who want to move, the Marriott's sales and marketing director Robert Pfeffer said.
"We're all in this business together," he said. "We're here to help."
At the Naples Beach Hotel and Golf Club, general manager Jason Parsons was juggling a wedding, a bar mitzvah and three corporate groups from a gas-less kitchen.
Parsons compared going without gas to the aftermath of a hurricane.
"We've been full steam ahead and working like crazy," he said.
The switchboard lit up at DiamondHead Beach Resort and Spa on Fort Myers Beach as tourists woke Friday morning and began looking for refuge from the gas outage, general manager Neil Hopgood said.
"It's starting to settle in," he said.
The resort, which runs on propane, sold its last 10 rooms for Friday night and expected to sell its last 30 rooms for Saturday night too, he said.
Among DiamondHead resort's transplants Friday was a 40-person wedding rehearsal dinner that had to be moved from another hotel without gas service.
Collier County Tourism Director Jack Wert said hotels are packed this weekend as they try to manage the gas outage.
"It's one of our busiest weekends," Wert said.
A senior softball tournament has filled up a lot of the hotels this weekend, and a large lacrosse event next weekend will do the same, he said.
"That just adds to the concern about this gas explosion," he said.
McCabe, at the Inn on Fifth, said the gas debacle is coming just as the tourism industry is bouncing back from this summer's BP oil spill and on the cusp of a series of busy November weekends.
"It's a kick in the knees," McCabe said. "It could be worse. It could be February."
In the lobby, a group of women debated whether to brave the showers or look for another place to stay.
"They've got ice cream and booze," said Michele Haran, of Austin, Texas. "What else do you need on vacation?"
Sheri Principato, of Chicago, had a bit of creative traveling in mind.
"I was thinking grilled cheese with the iron," she said.

Mercedes CLS review
The sleek and stylish Mercedes CLS combines head-turning coupe looks with sensible saloon practicality
When the original Mercedes CLS hit showrooms in 2005 it caused an instant stir. By mixing four-door versatility, sleek coupe styling and a luxurious cabin, the CLS was a true trendsetter. Now in its second generation, the latest model adds sharper driving dynamics and efficient new diesel and petrol engines to its list of desirable attributes. All versions are well-equipped, but that doesn't mean you'll be able to avoid the expensive options list.
Our choice: CLS 350 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY
The new Mercedes CLS clearly takes its cues from its sleek predecessor. With a mix of sweeping curves and bold creases, the CLS packs more visual appeal than rivals such as the Audi A7. As with the previous model, the Mercedes CLS is available as a four-door saloon only. All versions get eye-catching LED daytime running lights, while Sport models are treated to 19-inch alloy wheels and a racy looking bodykit. Inside, quality is top notch, with classy and expensive feeling materials used throughout. What's more, the attractively designed cabin is almost as stylish as its sleek exterior.
Drivers wanting the ultimate in sporty driving dynamics should look elsewhere. However, the Mercedes CLS's fine ride and handling set-up strikes the right balance between fun and comfort. Adaptive damping is standard on all models, which means the Mercedes copes effortlessly with poorly surfaced roads. Yet the direct and well-weighted steering, good body control and decent grip make the Mercedes a surprisingly agile choice. Entry-level versions get a 201bhp 2.1-litre diesel engine, while at the other end of the performance scale are the muscular petrol V8-powered 500 and AMG models – the latter will blast from 0 to 62mph in just 4.4 seconds. Buyers can also pick from a pair of V6 engines – a smooth 3.0-litre diesel and a muscular 3.5-litre petrol. All versions get a slick shifting seven-speed automatic gearbox, apart from the AMG, which benefits from Mercedes's MCT seven-speed twin-clutch gearbox.
There has been no Euro NCAP test for the Mercedes CLS yet, but there's no reason to think it won't bag a five-star result. Included in the raft of standard safety kit are six airbags, ESP and tyre pressure monitoring. Hit the eye-wateringly expensive options list and you can add hi-tech extras such as lane keep assist, blind spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control. Mercedes has a reputation for strong build quality and mechanical strength – and the Mercedes CLS certainly feels like it will last. Standard three-year warranty is joined by the firm's Mobilo scheme, which delivers breakdown cover for up to 30 years if you continue to have your car serviced at a Mercedes main dealer.
It's unlikely that buyers of the Mercedes CLS are in the market for a practical holdall, so it's no surprise to find the newcomer lacks versatility. The CLS is a strict four-seater, although there's plenty of head and legroom for occupants. Opening the tailgate reveals a generous 520-litre load bay, but you'll have to hit the expensive options list if you want folding rear seats. Buyers looking for an extra dose of practicality would be better of looking at the hatchback-equipped Audi A7. On the plus side, the cabin of the Mercedes is littered with useful storage, including a deep, lidded box in the centre console.
Running Costs
Owners who want all the flash without forking out lots of cash should stick to the CLS 250CDI. The diesel-powered machine emits only 135g/km of CO2 and is capable of returning an impressive 54.3mpg. The petrol-powered V8 versions serve-up crippling running costs, however, while all CLS variants suffer from poor residuals compared to rivals such as the Audi A7 and Porsche Panamera. As you'd expect for a premium car, servicing costs are likely to be pricey. And while the level of standard equipment is decent, it will be hard not to hit the expensive options list. For instance, you'll have to dig a little deeper in your pocket for ambient lighting, sat-nav and heated seats – kit we'd expect to be standard at this price.
Disqus - noscript
The article refers to the cost of options, but the standard car car comes loaded with far more extras than almost any other competitor.
Sat-Nav is standard across the range, as is full leather, metallic paint, parking assist (steers the car into tight spots) as well as a long list of other luxuries. Everything is there already.
Only stuff like memory seats/mirrors/steering/headrest, upgraded audio, reversing cameras etc require additional expense.
"Thirsty V8 petrols"... as a negative? Then don't buy the V8 petrol if you want economy! I don't believe Merc V8s (non-AMG ones anyway) are notably more thirsty than other manufacturers' V8s.

- (NBC News) Fears Grow Over 'Vacationing Terrorists' Who Freely Enter, Exit Syria
- April 8, 2014
A new video released last week by the Syrian rebel umbrella group The Islamic Front (Ahrar al-Sham) added new support for that view, showing jihadis training for "special missions." The highly produced video, titled "The Lions of War Training Camp," is being used primarily as a recruiting tool, reports Evan Kohlmann, a terrorism consultant with Flashpoint Partners and an NBC counterterrorism analyst.
The Flashpoint Difference

I was just browsing through the questions on this website. There are so many moms asking the same question. "How do you make the decision about what to do with your children while you work?" The question came up many times and each time the answers were all very different. So with so many different answers, how do you decide?
My children are school-age now, and it makes it so much easier to work that I can't even imagine how I got it all done before when my three kids were home with me all day. Reading everyone's answers was bringing back memories of the times when I struggled with the decision to use day care centers, family day cares, nannies, or just work with them around.
As mothers, we all go through the same struggle over and over again. You know what the options are, but how do you know which one is right for your child? There is always the emotional battle in your head. You want a fulfilling business to grow as a person, yet you want to stay home for the children. You want to work from home to be there for the children, but you do get anything done when they are always striving for your attention. It is a constant dilemma both emotionally and physically. It is a common problem that many entrepreneurial and working mothers struggle with. How do mothers manage to decide the best course for their family?
I have been through it all. I have used day cares, nannies, babysitters, working at home with just myself and my children, using my husband as the provider when he can be available. My parents and in-laws all work, so that was never an option for me. I can't even tell you which option I liked the best. None of the options seemed to be just the right thing. They all had their pros and cons. Also, our decision changed every time we moved or had another child.
Each of our children was different. Our son craved the social atmosphere of day care. Our oldest daughter loved the one-on-one attention from a nanny. Our youngest daughter was only happy when I was spending time with her. She refused to like anyone else.
I also found that the location you live in makes a huge difference in the quality of care you can receive. We lived in a college town for a while and there were always smart college students willing to babysit in between their classes. In another area we lived in, I found a great family day care. The family day care worked really well because I could use it as a drop-in for my children. If I had a meeting with a client or a day when I just couldn't have the kids with me, then the family day care always had room for me to just drop them off. She was a lifesaver!

February 04, 2011
At its Feb. 8, 2011, meeting, the Placer County Board of Supervisors will hear a proposed Zoning Text Amendment to County Zoning Ordinance relating to the keeping of fowl and poultry. The Board will also be asked to adopt an environmental document allowing for the change. The Planning Services Division of the County's Community Development Resource Agency will recommend to the Board the number of fowl/poultry that can be kept on certain residential lots in Placer County.
The proposed changes would allow the keeping of six chicken hens in residential single-family (RS), residential multi-family (RM), and resort zone (RES) districts. The proposed changes would not apply to the Lake Tahoe Basin, where both Placer County and the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) have zoning jurisdiction. TRPA currently requires a two-acre lot minimum for keeping chickens and is currently working on an update to its Regional Plan. Placer County has asked TRPA to consider including the raising of chicken hens on single-family residential lots as a part of that update.
"The raising of chickens in an urban environment is part of a growing movement of people who want to raise their own food for health and financial reasons," said Planning Director Michael Johnson. "There are numerous other agencies in the local area, including the cities of Roseville, Folsom and Auburn, that have already adopted similar ordinances, and staff is bringing forward this proposed Zoning Text Amendment in an effort to be responsive to this trend".
At its July 22, 2010 meeting, the Placer County Planning Commission unanimously approved the proposed Zoning Text Amendment and, following procedure, referred the matter to the Board of Supervisors. In forwarding its recommendation, the Planning Commission concluded that any potential issues that may be associated with the keeping of fowl and poultry on residential properties were properly within the text of the ordinance.
The proposed Zoning Text Amendment addresses the raising and keeping of chicken hens and does not include potentially nuisance/noise producing fowl including roosters, guinea hens and birds from the peacock family.

Chances are, you're not alone, in a world where many of us brush our teeth with what is effectively antibacterial toothpaste.
Considering today's germ phobic culture, this fact might not bother you. But before you use antibacterial products, consider this: Antibacterial soaps do not kill cold or flu viruses, and they are considered no more effective at cleansing the skin than regular soap and water.
It's the act of scrubbing with soap, and not the soap itself, that rids your skin of germs.
Even more important is the fact that the active ingredient in most antibacterial products – triclosan – has recently come under significant scrutiny not only for health reasons, but because it may be damaging the environment.
Triclosan and its sibling triclocarban emerged as antibacterial and preservative agents in consumer products more than 30 years ago. Reportedly, antibacterial chemicals can now be found in almost 80 percent of all liquid soaps and almost 30 percent of bar soaps. Toothpaste, deodorants, dog shampoo, cutting boards, clothing, toys, and numerous plastic products commonly contain triclosan or triclocarban.
Our willingness to consider anything dubbed antibacterial as being somehow healthier has turned into a huge marketing opportunity. As a result, it's almost impossible to find non-antibacterial liquid hand soap in grocery stores, not to mention in public restrooms. Whether it's a gas station, restaurant, school or airport restroom, it's rare to find an alternative to the industrial pink goop coming out of wall-mounted soap-dispensers.
The same notion that antibacterial products offer health protection has also led to the development of products outside of the personal care realm – antibacterial chopsticks, anyone? How about antibacterial bedroom sets (mattresses, sheets, pillows) impregnated with triclosan?
What's the rub, you ask? Let's start with the mounting concern that triclosan and triclocarban have serious health and environmental implications.
According to the website The Daily Green, "the ingredients in antibacterial soaps – triclosan or triclocarban – have some serious toxicity concerns. These chemicals pollute rivers and streams, are toxic to wildlife, can enter and accumulate in people's bodies, and disrupt hormone systems (triclosan interferes with thyroid hormone, whereas triclocarban has a testosterone-like effect)."
The chemicals are purported to generate chloroform in certain conditions, and are turning up in wastewater, breast milk and fish.
Back in 2001, the Centers for Disease Control published an article voicing concern about antibacterial household products by Dr. Stuart B. Levy, Tufts University School of Medicine professor and director of the Center for Adaptation Genetics and Drug Resistance.
In his report, Levy states: "The recent entry of products containing antibacterial agents into healthy households has escalated from a few dozen products in the mid-1990s to more than 700 today. Antibacterial products were developed and have been successfully used to prevent transmission of disease-causing microorganisms among patients, particularly in hospitals. They are now being added to products used in healthy households, even though an added health benefit has not been demonstrated."
Scientists are concerned, he added, about the potential for bacteria resistance, and effects on the immune system that could increase the chance of childhood allergies.
"No current data demonstrate any health benefits from having antibacterial-containing cleansers in a healthy household," he wrote, adding that some researchers have even "found a correlation between too much hygiene and increased allergy."
Some have further suggested that the use of antibacterial soaps may be contributing to the creation of antibiotic resistant "superbugs."
Obviously, the human race survived long before the introduction of antibacterial soaps. But while sanitation and antibiotics certainly have their place – both have improved our life expectancy – it seems that our love affair with all things antibacterial may be doing harm.
Consider a new mantra – plain old soap and water is best. Wash your hands five times a day for 20 seconds – about the time it takes to sing "Happy Birthday" – and watch those germs wash down the drain along with the dirt and grime.
If you must use antibacterial soap, consider a product that does not contain triclosan, such as herb-based CleanWell foaming soap.
For those times when hand-washing is simply not an option, a hand sanitizer will do, but there are a few things to consider here, as well. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers are very effective, but can be dangerous if ingested and are therefore not the best option for unsupervised children. Meanwhile, most non-alcohol hand sanitizers contain the synthetic germicide Benzalkonium Chloride, another chemical being scrutinized for its ill health effects.
As an alternative, consider using an alcohol-based sanitizing wipe, many of which are now made from biodegradable materials, including those from the company EO. While you might consider the individually wrapped, single-use wipes to be wasteful, they're an excellent alternative to adding more antibacterial chemicals into the waste stream.
As Dr. Levy puts it, "We exist in the bacterial world, [there is] not bacteria in ours. Unfortunately, we believe that we can rid ourselves of bacteria when, in fact, we cannot. Instead, we should 'make peace' with them."

Great location for parking at a reasonable rate!
The lot was only a couple of blocks from the Sky Tower and it was easy to find. The attendant wasn't around at that time so we just placed the pass on our dashboard and had no problems.
Easy in and out.
it was excellent and convenient

Richard and Rachel Lane Turn School Bus Into Energy-Efficient Home
Jan 7th 2013 2:25PM

But Richard and Rachel Lane's doesn't have four walls -- instead, it has four wheels. The Lanes live on a bus in the San Francisco Bay area: a former school bus, to be exact, that they...

Just cuz he bought the team don't mean fans can't be fans and have an opinion. If people don't like the name thats their right. Just cuz he spent his money don't mean WE have to spend money on the merchandise. We can spend money to watch the team which is just as supportive but like I said earlier. Me personally....I'm not spending my money on clothes/merchandise if i don't like the name on it. Doesn't mean I don't like the team on the court. You don't have to have a whole bunch of Pelicans gear to be a fan of the team.
I personally will never forgive Benson for this. Terrible.
It's easily the least fierce name in the league.
New Orleans Pelicans-Seattle Seahawks-Atlanta Braves-Anaheim Ducks
Baptize them in the water out of Scarface pool,
And feed 'em from the table that held Corleone's food,
If you die, tell them that you played my game
I hope your bullet holes become mouths that say my name.
Also while I'm thrilled to have basketball remaining in the city. Don't for a second fool yourself to think Benson did this for "us". This was a business decision. So while he's the owner and have the majority of control in the final name we the fans have to consume what he's selling.

I think it's official. I mean the story leaked today and Stern is in New Orleans tomorrow
A season ticket, single ticket, FSNO watching, apparel buying fan can be as disgruntled as they well please about a unilaterally chosen name to represent THEIR chosen team as anybody.
Pick yourself up young man,
Seriously, people have absolutely zero perspective. The Lakers is smooth? Lakes have NOTHING to do with Los Angeles. But we've heard it so long it's rooted into our consciousnesses to the point where you don't even question why their logo is just words and a streaking basketball. Same reason the average joe doesn't know what a Knick even is. Or a Celtic for that matter.
20 years from now, none of this crap about the name not being smooth or whatever will matter. Any name will become accepted.
But yeah, like 42 said, get it all out of your systems now.
Tune in on Fridays at 12 noon for Sport-a-Facts with Ro Brown and Wednesdays at 1pm for Sports Revolution to hear me speak my mind on all things Saints and Pelicans related and more.
Only on WBOK 1230 AM.
Feel free to PM me for more details.
It does fit better if you say Louisiana Pelicans.
Crescent City Pelicans.
At the end of the day, it's just a game and we'll get over it. But everybody is not meant to be a lap dog. We'll riot soon. You'll see.

The Safety 1st Complete Air LX Convertible Car Seat with revolutionary Air Protect Side Impact Technology brings long term protection to parents with its ability to accommodate rear-facing infants from 5-40 pounds and forward-facing toddlers from 22-65. In addition to the great convenience features you've come to expect from Safety 1st, this LX Car Seat includes a 3-position recline that provides extra comfort and can be easily adjusted with one hand.
1 in 4 car crashes involving children are side impact collisions. They are by far the deadliest type of collision for children, accounting for 1 in 3 child fatalities; nearly all of which are caused by head trauma. These are frightening facts, but Safety 1st has been by your side for 25 years providing innovative products to help protect your child from becoming a statistic. It is in this tradition that we proudly announce Air Protect™ side impact technology.
Safety 1st engineers designed Air Protect™ using next generation testing methods that simulate the most violent types of side impact crashes, those with vehicle intrusion. Using this advanced methodology, Air Protect™ was engineered to defend your child in two vital ways. During a crash, the system immediately shields your child's head from the impact. In a second layer of defense, Air Protect™ allows air to escape from the headrest: channeling crash energy away from your child, creating more ride down time. It is this double layer of protection that makes Air Protect™ technology unique.

Norman Named to Academic All-District V Second Team
Thursday, November 13, 2003Valparaiso University's Cyndi Norman (Minooka, Ill./Minooka H.S.) has been named to the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-District V Volleyball Second Team.
The senior setter ranks second all-time at Valpo with 4,737 assists, a figure that also is third in Mid-Continent Conference history. As a sophomore and junior, she earned First Team All Mid-Con honors. She currently is second in the conference in assists per game with 11.90.
This season, Norman has helped the Crusaders to a 24-7 record overall and a 12-1 mark in Mid-Con play. Valpo is assured of at least a share of the conference title, and can win it outright with a victory over Oakland on Friday evening.
In the classroom, Norman has also excelled, posting a 3.70 grade point average while majoring in biology and psychology. She is a two-time member of the Mid-Con All-Academic Team.
The All-Academic Team is voted on by members of CoSIDA from District V which encompasses the states Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, along with the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Ontario. To be eligible for Academic All-District, student-athletes must hold at least sophomore status, own an minimum grade-point average of 3.20, and be either a starter or key reserve.

Arizona Wildcats RB Daniel Jenkins to transfer
The Arizona Wildcats will need to find a new backup running back.
According to Anthony Gimino's 'Wildcat Report', the junior told head coach Rich Rodgriguez Monday he is looking to transfer.
Jenkins had graduated two days earlier, earning a degree in 3 1/2 years in public policy and management, focusing on criminal justice. His minor was in business.
What that degree in hand, and one year of eligibility left, Jenkins is free to transfer to another FootballChampionship Subdivision school without having to sit out a year. It was that or stay at Arizona and face another season of limited opportunity behind consensus All-American Ka'Deem Carey.
Jenkins rushed for 293 yards and two touchdowns as Carey's backup this season, and proved to be a valuable member of Arizona's backfield. However, with just one year left to play in college, Jenkins felt it would be best to play for a school that could offer a larger role on the field.
The report notes that Rodriguez told Jenkins he would like for the running back to stay, but understood why he was asking to leave.
"I have only one year to show the world what I've got," Jenkins said.
"This was just a personal decision for my career. It was something I had to do. It was not something I wanted to do."
