This is one of the most excellent experiences anyone can have, even if your not into aeroplanes. The staff, especially RÜYA UGUR, are very accommodating. Rűya is a most delightful host. The accommodation was excellent and it bought a smile to our faces that was not easy to diminish. It was the most fun. If we ever venture back to Stockholm, it will be a place to stay again. We chose the cockpit room in the 747 and it was the best. This was an extension of our 30th wedding anniversary. LOVED IT

Probation officer says alleged bank robber was off his meds, smoking potFARGO – The probation officer assigned to a man accused of robbing a north Fargo convenience store on Sunday and a south Fargo bank on Tuesday said the man has a history of armed robbery when he's off his medication and smoking marijuana, court documents state.
By: Mike Nowatzki, INFORUM, Forum Staff Reports, inforum.com
FARGO – The probation officer assigned to a man accused of robbing a north Fargo convenience store on Sunday and a south Fargo bank on Tuesday said the man has a history of armed robbery when he's off his medication and smoking marijuana, court documents state.
Abraham Clifford Wilson Jr., 46, was arrested Tuesday afternoon after allegedly robbing the Cornerstone Bank at 2627 S. University Drive in Fargo and leading authorities on a high-speed car chase and foot chase that ended with his capture in Moorhead.
Authorities believe Wilson also is responsible for Sunday's robbery of the Stop-N-Go at 3220 12th Ave. N. in Fargo. Wilson was charged with that robbery Wednesday in Cass County District Court.
According to the complaint, the store clerk told police the suspect entered the store, pulled a handgun from his waistline and pointed it at her, saying, "This is a stickup; I want all the money in your drawer."
The clerk verbally challenged the suspect because she believed the gun was fake, commenting that it was plastic-looking with a clear end and electrical tape wrapped around it, the complaint states. The suspect again demanded money, and she gave him $205 and he left.
Fargo police emailed video images of the suspect to local law enforcement and were contacted by Wilson's federal probation officer and a deputy with the U.S. Marshals Service, both of whom identified the suspect as Wilson.
Wilson is on federal probation after pleading guilty in October 2003 to robbing a US Bank branch in Fargo earlier that year.
The probation officer told police Wilson hadn't been taking his medication and had failed a random urinalysis for marijuana on Saturday. Wilson hadn't been seen since at his apartment in the Dakota Pioneer Center at 633 1st Ave. N., which houses clients for the Southeast Human Service Center, the complaint states.
The probation officer said Wilson has a history of robbery with guns when he's off his medication and using marijuana, the complaint states.
The Stop-N-Go clerk was unable to identify the robbery suspect in a photo lineup that included Wilson's photo, but others with more knowledge of Wilson were relied upon to establish probable cause for his arrest, the complaint states.
Fargo police issued a news release to local media Tuesday afternoon identifying Wilson as the Stop-N-Go suspect. Wilson allegedly robbed the bank about 20 minutes later.
On Wednesday, Wilson remained in the Clay County Jail, where he's being held pending charges including fleeing police, motor vehicle theft and possession of stolen property. He's expected to make a court appearance today.

A great idea
I love the idea of having a colour chart on your tea cup and think it's a fun gift for the demanding tea-drinker. I was a bit disappointed that there wasn't a larger colour-palette though. I had hoped the colours would go all round the edge with lots of choice but in fact there are only 4.
My Cuppa Tea Mug
For years a friend has been threatening to bring in a colour chart to show us all what colour she wants her tea - and then I found this and got her one for christmas. She loved it so much she paraded it up and down the office and called four different people. Now she is challenging everyone to make the darkest on the chart. Its also a very well made mug so makes the tea round easier.
Cuppa Mug
This is the second one of these we have bought unfortunately the first one got damaged and the person we had got it for was so upset that we have bought them a replacement. They only have their tea a certain way and the colour code helps their colleagues know the amount of milk to put in. It's great.

Innovation Marketing recently released a report listing three industry trends to watch for in 2013, citing the recent news surrounding the partnership between Intel and AVT to further develop automated retail and intelligent vending.
Titled "3 Vital Trends of 2013," the report highlights the following:
- Automation: As technology evolves and new chip designs allow for innovative, highly interactive systems, we will see the entire retailing industry continue to evolve toward automation.
- Health care: Every aspect of health care delivery will focus on reducing costs ... from evaluating and reducing the number of unnecessary procedures, to automated prescription dispensing machines ... it's all about efficiency.
- Consumer experience: Customer experience has become the only source of long-term competitive advantages, and today the main barrier to great experiences isn't the tech — it's the customer experience through all touchpoints over time.
Shannon Illingworth, founder and chairman of AVT, said he is pleased that his company's products and technology have been cited in the 2013 Trend Report.
"Our focus continues to be on developing systems that provide ways for retailers to expand into new markets, and enable entrepreneurs to start their own businesses," he said. "We know that the future will demand more efficient retail delivery systems, and we continually innovate to remain at the forefront of this industry."

Today's exercise in irony: Spring officially began today in the Northern Hemisphere at 1:14 a.m. (EDT), the exact arrival of the vernal equinox—and Yosemite is covered by its thickest snow cover of the year.
It's been an odd, largely snow-free winter in many places, including Yosemite National Park. In January we wrote about local climbers ascending a snow-free Half Dome on a day trip on Jan. 4—a meteorologically surreal event for the customarily snowy Sierra Nevada.
Then this past weekend a storm rushed in that reportedly dropped up to 10 feet of snow in some higher elevation. Crazy.
Thus today, on the first day of spring, we direct your attention to park webcams maintained by the nonprofit Yosemite Conservancy so you can check out some traditional winter scenes in the park, just 3-4 months late. It stays light until 7 p.m. (PDT) in the West, so if you're reading this post prior to that hour, give a click and take a look.
If this gets you thinking about making a visit to Yosemite, REI Adventures offers 4 guided trips at the park: lodge hiking, backpacking, backpacking with a Half Dome climb and a volunteer vacation. I'm usually a do-it-yourselfer type, but guided trips can be a pretty attractive, no-hassle alternative.
Snow in Yosemite is gorgeous, and it's nice the storm bumped up some pretty low snow reserves. But the official arrival of spring gets me thinking about spending more time on trails. You, too?

Thursday, April 24, 2014
By PAUL WISEMAN and CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Lawmakers managed to avoid driving the United States over the so-called fiscal cliff with a late-night vote Tuesday. But higher taxes and brinksmanship in Washington are likely to sap strength from the fragile economy well into 2013.
The House of Representatives passed emergency legislation to prevent deep spending cuts and even bigger tax hikes from taking effect.
The bill will raise taxes on individual incomes over $400,000 and household incomes over $450,000, on investment profits and dividends, and on the portion of estates that exceeds $5 million.
Those higher taxes on the wealthy — which will deliver some $600 billion in revenue over 10 years — are likely to slow the economy a little bit. But a bigger drag on the economy will come from a tax hike Democrats and Republicans didn't even bothering to fight over: the end of a two-year Social Security tax cut.
The so-called payroll tax is scheduled to bounce back up to 6.2 percent this year from 4.2 percent in 2011 and 2012, amounting to a $1,000 tax increase for someone earning $50,000 a year.
"It's a huge hit," says Joel Naroff, president of Naroff Economic Advisors. "It hits people whether they're making $10,000 or they're making $2 million. It doesn't matter who you are ... The lower your income, the more of your income you're (spending). So if you're taxes go up, it's going to come out of your spending." And that is bad news for an economy that is 70 percent consumer spending.
Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics, calculates that the higher payroll tax will reduce economic growth by 0.6 percentage points in 2013. The other possible tax increases — including higher taxes on household incomes above $450,000 a year — will slice just 0.15 percentage points off annual growth, Zandi said.
The economy doesn't have much growth to give. Mark Vitner, senior economist at Wells Fargo, predicts it will expand just 1.5 percent in 2013, down from a lackluster 2.2 percent in 2012. Unemployment stands at 7.7 percent.
A months-long political standoff over fiscal policy has already taken its toll, adding uncertainty that has discouraged consumers from spending and businesses from hiring and investing.
The squabbling seems sure to persist.
Lawmakers postponed tough decisions on government spending, giving themselves a reprieve from cuts that were scheduled to begin taking effect automatically Jan. 1. That just sets the stage for more hard-bargaining later. Spending cuts, when they come, could crimp growth even more.
And another standoff is likely to arrive as early as February when Congress will need to raise the $16.4 trillion federal borrowing limit so the government can keep paying its bills. House Republicans probably won't agree to raise the debt limit without offsetting spending cuts that Democrats are sure to resist.
Obama warned Republicans late Tuesday that "if Congress refuses to give the United States government the ability to pay these bills on time, the consequences for the entire global economy would be catastrophic, far worse than the impact of a fiscal cliff."
Ethan Harris, co-head of global economics at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, asked: "What induces the two sides to stop fighting and start compromising?"
The fiscal cliff itself was created to force Democrats and Republicans to compromise, and it succeeded — barely.
To end a 2011 standoff over raising the federal debt limit, they agreed to a Jan. 1, 2013 deadline to reach a deal over taxes and spending. If they didn't, more than $500 billion in tax increases would hit the economy in 2013 alone, along with $109 billion in cuts from the military and domestic spending programs. The sharp tax hikes and spending cut would threaten to send the economy over the cliff and back into recession.

Company Profile
The NASDAQ OMX Group Inc., a New York-based holding company, is an exchange operator and parent of the Nasdaq Stock Market in the U.S. It supports the development and operations of more than 60 exchanges in more than 50 countries. As NASDAQ OMX Nordic, it runs exchanges in Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland. As NASDAQ OMX Baltic, it runs exchanges in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. It also operates NASDAQ OMX Europe, a multilateral trading facility based in London. The company delivers trading, exchange technology, securities listing, and public company services. Its offerings include trading across multiple asset classes, market data products, financial indexes, capital formation solutions, financial services and market technology products and services.
A pioneer in electronic trading, Nasdaq is the largest U.S. electronic stock market. It's regulated by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. In the early 1990s, Bernard Madoff had been a prominent marketmaker and chairman of the exchange. Its dramatic MarketSite video tower overlooks Manhattan's Times Square. Among its recent challenges is stemming the loss of U.S. market share to other electronic exchanges and marketplaces.
The company's derivatives clearinghouse business, International Derivatives Clearing Group, recently began clearing interest-rate-swap contracts. With the International Exchange St. Petersburg, it is looking to become the first Western operator of an exchange in Russia. The company is also expanding into trading emissions contracts designed to reduce the global output of greenhouse gases, creating a new Nasdaq OMX Commodities unit. Another project in the works is a private-market exchange where private company shareholders could sell their stock, similar to PORTAL, which Nasdaq launched two years ago to allow qualified investors to trade unregistered securities.

We've been following the ongoing story of Keith Childerhose and Sarah Taylor since last year. The couple, Oakville business owners and residents, first contacted us to help them raise awareness about organ donation.
Keith suffered from a rare lung condition and would require a double-lung transplant, an arduous process with no guarantees.
Featured on national and international media, the dynamic duo's fight for awareness has proven successful. Organ donation has become a major topic in the media, parliament and around kitchen tables.
But more amazingly, Keith was given a second chance. He received his double-lung transplant earlier this year. Second chances are not to be squandered and Keith made good on his. Early in his recovery, from a hospital bed where Sarah had patiently visited every day, Keith proposed.
Even those of us with a Grinch-sized sense of romance had to brush away a tear at that development.
This is not a tale of a happy ending for Keith and Sarah. It is a tale of a happy beginning.
Congratulations from all of us at North Oakville Today and we wish you the very best in your new lives.
– Michael Howie

For Immediate Release: Wednesday, August 24, 2010
Seven Minnesota Weatherization Programs Receive Additional $6 Million DOE funds
(Saint Paul)- Seven weatherization service providers in Minnesota will receive $6 million from the US Department of Energy (DOE) to heighten energy efficiency in the weatherization program. The DOE funds were granted to high-performing weatherization agencies around the country. Each of the selected organizations has already met their milestone of weatherizing 30 percent of their total production goal and spending 30 percent of their Recovery Act funds. Providers will begin projects to install solar air heat systems and innovative hot water heat systems.
The Minnesota Department of Commerce's Office of Energy Security (OES) oversees the use of the funds. As of June 2010, the program had funded weatherization for 7,201 homes in Minnesota with an additional 3,300 homes in progress.
The OES estimates that, through the Weatherization Assistance Program, a homeowner saves about $300 on an average annual energy bill.
The additional funding will allow agencies to expand their programs and support new projects.
In Minnesota, the seven service providers and respective projects are:
Anoka County Community Action Program of Blaine, MN will receive $100,000 to install high-performance hot water systems.
Arrowhead Economic Opportunity Agency Inc., of Virginia, MN will receive $120,000 to install high-performance hot water systems.
Community Action Minneapolis of Minneapolis will receive $1.4 million to install high-performance hot water systems.
Otter Tail-Wadena Community Action Council Inc. of New York Mills, MN will receive nearly $2.2 million for solar air heating installation and training.
Scott-Carver-Dakota CAP Agency Inc. of Shakopee, MN will receive more than $500,000 for pilot projects for centralized building controls for multi-family units and on-demand water heaters for mobile homes.
Sustainable Resources Center of Minneapolis will receive $1.8 million for high-performance hot water systems and space-conditioning retrofits.
Three Rivers Community Action Inc. of Zumbrota, MN will receive $50,000 to install high-performance hot water systems.

Help us continue the fight for worker rights!
Latest News
Through Farmworker Justice's work with farmworkers and farmworker service organizations on the ground, we were able to help this undocumented farmworker lift up his voice to describe his experiences living and working in agriculture.
Original Article:
This week in Washington, immigrant groups are protesting the Obama administration's deportation of immigrants — 2 million, they say, in five years. They want it to stop until Congress finishes passing immigration reform. Here is what it's like to be an undocumented farm worker, as told (using a pseudonym) by a migrant worker in Florida.
It has been nearly 20 years since I left Mexico and came to Florida — two decades of hard work without getting ahead that much. That's 20 years in orchards and vegetable fields here, or picking cucumbers in Ohio, apples in Michigan and Washington, tomatoes in Tennessee, melons in Georgia — always in fear of deportation. I've spent 20 years dreaming about becoming legal. For me, that's the American Dream: to be a United States citizen.
We couldn't make a go of it in Mexico in 1995, my wife and I; there wasn't enough work so we came here. There really is no way to do it legally — to get a visa that lets you work and stay, unless you have family here or know someone important. I didn't have any experience in the fields. Farm work was what I could get and so a farm worker is what I became, and that is what I am today. I'm good at it, but it's not what I want my children to do.
We'd been here a couple of years before we sent for our two kids. It was scary. We paid someone to bring them across the border but for a long time, about a month but it felt like an eternity — we didn't hear anything. We weren't sure where they were or even if they were alive. Eventually we got a call that they were safe, but we had to drive to get them at the border. They were about 3 and 5 years old then. Today they are 24 and 22, also working in agriculture, with families of their own. Our other three kids were born here and are citizens.
Farm work is hard. We start in the orchards early, when the humidity is high and the trees are wet. We're carrying bags and they get heavy, up to 90 pounds of oranges when full, as we climb up and down from tree to tree, reaching in and picking the fruit, placing it in the bag and moving on. We're soaked all day with moisture and sweat. There aren't many breaks for water or a bathroom, although some places are better than others. We work when it's hot and cold; if we can't work, we don't get paid.
I travel — always taking my family. In recent years, we have driven 3,000 miles to Washington state. We get to the area where we hear they need apple pickers and look for a contractor. Sometimes we can afford a motel; or we sleep in the car until we find housing. We are cautious; if you attract attention someone could call a cop or the immigration guys. One slip-up and you're caught in the system that takes you away from your family forever. Half of the people I work with are in the same situation.
When you're undocumented, people take advantage. We show up for work as part of a crew of anywhere from 9 or 10 to 30 men and women. I'm lucky; I have a car so when I'm in a job with abusive supervisors, I leave. I have seen and heard of supervisors who take advantage of workers who don't have other options.
This is particularly true for indigenous workers who don't speak much Spanish or have a car; they stay because of a lack of options. Sometimes they cheat us out of what we are owed, or pay less than the contract promises. Even if we could report it, we would have to hang around instead of hitting the highway to the next job.
We never go back to Mexico. My father died and my wife's father, but we didn't attend the funerals. We would have had to leave the kids behind and if we couldn't get back in, what would happen?
I know people who have been deported, even some married to legal residents or citizens. They tell us Congress might pass immigration reform. The most important thing is to stop breaking up families. I've tried to tell my children that the police are their friends, but they know that the police also can destroy our family. They've seen it happen with their friends. If we could get legal status or citizenship, none of that would be a problem.
Farm work is the work I have. I like the idea that we feed other families. Where I come from, the family is the center of everything. I hope a new law will protect our families in the United States.
Jaime Diaz is a pseudonym for a farm worker who lives in Florida.
Farmworkers play an integral role in our agricultural sector.
They not only provide labor, but their work also puts the majority of the food we eat on our kitchen tables.
Action 4 News learned many farmworkers are still struggling to be paid the required federal minimum wage.
We spoke with an legal advocate for farmworkers nationwide.
He said not much has changed over the last couple decades for farmworkers, and many still endure unsafe working and living conditions.
"Farmworkers do some of the most important work in this country. They feed us and yet, they are excluded from many labor laws and labor protections," said Farmworker Justice President and attorney Bruce Goldstein.
The Washington D.C. based advocacy group, Farmworker Justice, said many farmworkers are afraid to stand up for their rights because more than half are undocumented immigrants.
"It's not good for anyone- low wages, poor working conditions. It can mean fear of going to the police when there is crime," explained Goldstein.
Francisco Alvarez has worked as a farmworker for over 20 years. A few years back, he went to South Carolina to work on a tobacco farm. He was not only forced to live in substandard conditions, but he was also paid less than minimum wage.
"[The boss] already had 15 people without eating and living in a warehouse with only bread and water. I asked , 'You're not going to have us living like them in a shed with the cows?'" Alvarez recalled.
Alvarez tried proving he had documentation, but he says the owner didn't care.
"When he looked at my green card and my brother's, he said, 'That's no good. Throw it away, throw it away in the trash,'" said Alvarez.
He walked off the job after three days.
Goldstein said farmworkers are not covered by the National Labor Relations Act, which is why they are not entitled to overtime pay nor have the same occupational safety protections.
"Basically, these exclusions are because agribusiness has more political power than farmworkers do," said Goldstein.
It's something he hopes will change.
Farmworker Justice is pushing for immigration reform to allow farmworkers the opportunity to obtain citizenship.
Alvarez said while a reform would open doors for farmworkers to do other jobs, more needs to be done to change current working conditions because whether you are an American citizen, an immigrant with a work visa, or are undocumented, many times you are treated equally poor.
"If we got immigration reform, we still have employers like farm owners who abuse people because we already have our green cards, but where are we going to work if there are employers who tell us it's worthless?" asked Alvarez.

Today we celebrate an important victory in the fight for migrant workers' rights.
Thomas Perez, U.S. Secretary of Labor, and Alfonso Navarrete Prida, Secretary of Labor and Social Welfare for Mexico, will meet face-to-face for the first time. They will engage in ministerial consultations and sign a joint declaration pursuant to the North American Agreement on Labor Cooperation (NAALC), the labor side accord to the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). The declaration responds to a petition filed by CDM in 2011 on behalf of migrant workers in the fairs and carnivals, and also addresses petitions filed in 2003 and 2005 by Farmworker Justice, Northwest Workers' Justice Project and other organizations. The signing represents the first such ministerial declaration signed between the U.S. and Mexico in twelve years. According to Sarah Rempel, CDM Policy Director, "The fact that the labor secretaries are addressing abuses faced by guestworkers in their first ever meeting sends a strong statement about the critical importance of this pressing issue."
In CDM's petition, fair and carnival workers alleged that they were paid below minimum wage, were deprived of overtime wages, and were not paid for all the hours they worked. Workers also paid hefty recruitment fees and other costs in Mexico in order to get jobs in the United States."Migrants' rights should be protected. We go to work in the United States, to help U.S. companies with their business. To be exploited like this is an injustice," Leonardo Cortez, former H-2B fair and carnival and petitioner, insisted.
According to the NAALC, now in its twentieth year, Canada, Mexico, and the United States are obliged to provide the same labor and employment protections to migrant workers as to their own nationals. But, as described in CDM's petition, the U.S. is not meeting its obligations.
"We are pleased to see action being taken in response to these petitions, but the success of this process will depend on its implementation. CDM looks forward to engaging with the DOL and STPS in the upcoming stakeholder meetings," stated Rachel Micah-Jones, Executive Director of CDM. The implementation must include pre-departure education, increased enforcement of labor and employment laws, and access to legal services for guestworkers.
"Despite the long delay in this process, we are pleased that the governments of the United States and Mexico will discuss the longstanding concerns about the unequal treatment of H-2A agricultural workers under U.S. labor laws and the need for greater enforcement of farmworkers' labor rights on North Carolina's farms," said Bruce Goldstein, President of Farmworker Justice, a national advocacy group that filed one of the formal complaints that the labor ministers are discussing. "Both governments have a responsibility to end the rampant abuses suffered by guestworkers in the tobacco and other harvests in North Carolina."
Today's ministerial declaration is a first step for the governments to ensure that migrant workers' rights are respected under the international treaty. It is an important step and worth applauding, but there is more work to be done.

On April 7-9th, the Women's Fast for Families, organized by We Belong Together, SEIU and FIRM, held a 48-hour fast on the National Mall. Valentina Stackl volunteered on behalf of Farmworker Justice and fasted for farmworkers and their families. Valentina writes that over 100 women fasted "to feed the courage of elected officials to pass fair and just immigration reform and to stop the deportations." Her full blog is available here. Meanwhile, several individuals with family members in detention are currently fasting in front of the White House.
House Democrats continue their efforts to get 218 signatures on a discharge petition to force a House floor vote on H.R. 15, the comprehensive immigration reform bill which includes the agricultural stakeholder agreement. They still need 27 more members to reach their target. It remains unlikely that they get Republican members to sign-on, but they use the petition as a rallying tool to call Republicans who support reform to action.
House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) told donors that he is "hellbent" on passing immigration reform this year, but also said that he does not trust President Obama enough to reach a compromise.
Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL) recently said that Republicans must act on immigration reform before the August recess or Obama will act on his own in response to the mounting pressure from advocates to stop the deportations. Diaz-Balart also claimed that immigration reform is not dead and that he has legislative language that would legalize undocumented immigrants ready to go should the House decide to move forward on reform. He argues that once the President acts, the House would not likely act this year and legislation is not likely to be addressed until there is a new President. (The conventional wisdom is that immigration reform is unlikely during the Republican Presidential primary in 2015 and the Presidential elections in 2016. Therefore, if Republicans want to improve their image with the Latino community, the House should act soon.) Of course, no one can predict the future.
If President Obama provides some sort of administrative relief for the 11 million undocumented immigrants, as he should, it would still be temporary and an incomplete answer. Only Congress can create a path to immigration status and citizenship for undocumented immigrants. Congress is on recess until April 28,th and members are in their home districts.
An informative article in takepart discusses Idaho's new law that "allows" Idaho prisoners to do farm work, noting its resemblance to slavery and chain gangs. The legislation was proposed as a solution to a claimed farm labor shortage created by Idaho's anti-immigrant state enforcement law, increased immigration enforcement and a tightening of the border. However, the legislation is focused on providing cheap labor for growers, not creating a solution for farmworkers or prisoners.
The Farmworker Justice Award Reception on May 7 in Washington, D.C. will honor two people who are committed to helping farmworkers win immigration reform: Rep. Judy Chu of California and Guadalupe Gamboa, Senior Program Officer at Oxfam America and a former migrant farmworker, labor organizer and farmworker attorney. Your support for the award reception helps farmworkers advocate for immigration reform.

Grading & Drainage

Grading & Drainage
Five years ago my family and I bought a new home. The builder did a very poor job of grading the yard which over time has created major water problems. To compound this, he came and put in a "French Drain". Well, not really. This drain is made from NON corrugated pipe, 8". He tied in the down spouts and put "Deck Drains" in the yard that are supposed to divert the standing water into this pipe.
He is no longer licensed and does not do business in this area. However I have been fighting a losing battle with this water since 2007. I get water from the house above me, and my front yard is lower than the street. When it rains we have a pond in the front yard that eventually runs the water across my driveway. I have asked for estimates from a number of contractors and they have varied from $2000, to $4000 and up to $15,000. I don't know who to believe, and really don't have any idea how to undo the problems that this has caused. I need some advice. How do I correct this?

Sorry to hear of the ongoing problems with drainage. Sounds like a really frustrating situation.
I'm wondering if your state has any kind of fund to which builders must contribute to compensate victims for builder errors.
Also, besides water in the driveway and yard, is there any damage to the house which might be covered under your homeowners' policy?
Is your home the only one in the subdivision with this problem?
Was the builder also the developer, i.e., of the subdivision? If so, have you done a litigation check with your local county clerk to determine if there are any individual or class action lawsuits against the builder and/or the owner individually? Even if the builder's corporate entity is defunct, the builder may have assets individually which aren't beyond legal reach.
The technical issues are way beyond me; just thought maybe there's some legal relief for you.
My sister had a house in a similar situation. All the houses on one side of the street were on what I suspect was a drumlin. There were deep ditches in the front and in back. Houses in the back were the recipients of water which collected in the ditch (which was so squishy that it was impossible to walk in that area without sinking into the mud). The neighbors at the base of the backyard ditch placed a lot (as in tons) of rocks in that area. I don't know whether it helped or not.
Some of the neighbors in front had drainage pipes emptying in the ditch. I don't know what they were connected to; I just saw open pipes about 12" in diameter on the front ditches.
Hope you get some advice that helps you; this situation must be exasperating.

Great points there raised by Garden Sprite. As far as a DIY fix for your problem, I don't have that much experience in yard work but I think what you need to do first is check the drainage that runs from your house for any blockage.
Apr 17, 2013, 06:07 PM
have the city inspector's office out to search the natural grading. if the developer hosed up, they can be made to fix it. if they are still around.
otherwise, pump out to the street, you can't put that water load in the sanitary sewer any more.
if you have a heavy soil, like high clay content, a French drain (deep hole full of rocks) isn't going to do a bit of good. you have to pump the water.
as for drainage... all surface water (roof, etc) has to fall away from the house at a quarter inch depth per running foot or better, and ideally downspouts and land run take that beyond the depth of the basement. few do. so a backup footing drain, sump, and outlet pipe have to do the rest.
in buying a house, you have to look for that. listing agents have got codicils in quite a few states that protect them against disclosing where the house sits in relation to mean elevation and water run. there are topographic maps all over heck and gone you must use, and flood stage info at the weather service and city hall, to make sure you aren't part of the river every third year.
this is the buyer's responsibility. Dad did it in 1954 and 1957, being smarter than your average bear (tm others.) we did it 8 years ago. everybody should, and then the blinkin' weasels who put McMansions in unfarmable swamp will be stopped from their evil ways.
sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money?
Apr 20, 2013, 09:46 AM
I am writing to see if you have found a solution because I have the EXACT same problem. My only additional "hiccup" is the low point of my problem area is under the driveway. We have placed a drain on one side of the driveway, but cannot figure out how to channel the swimming pool of water past the driveway. Oh, the lot next to ours is a flood plain.....suggestions?!? I'm out of ideas!
Apr 21, 2013, 02:42 PM
, not to challenge you as your advice is always good (and sometimes quite funny
, but a codicil is an addendum to a will. Were you thinking of some kind of disclosure protection for realtors?
I'm curious because eventually, in the next 5 years, I hope to sell my house and I keep lists of considerations to address when that happens.
, I don't have a clue how to help, but I wondered about the flood plain issue. Is your lot in the flood plain as well? If so, do you know what classification the plain is? I.e., 100 year flood, 500 year flood?
for flood plain classifications.
Did you have to purchase flood insurance when you bought your house?
Here's a link to some information on flood plains in Georgia:
I don't know if this will help but it might be worth reading. Perhaps contacting the Georgia Assn. of Flood Plain Management might be worthwile; they may have literature or someone who can offer advice.
I think since you are next to (or perhaps in) a flood plain that your situation is a bit different than DWMattocks'.
I think Swschrad's suggestion would also help. Contact your local community to see what advice they can offer.
Hope you find something helpful.

Hi Sarah;
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
I have the result, but I do not yet know how to get it.
All physicists, and a good many quite respectable mathematicians are contemptuous about proof.

I have heard that TV makers etc are hoping that 3D will create the next big wave of sales for them (just like flat screens have). There would need to be enough content, and the glasses issue may be a problem.

Primary Sources & Lesson Plans
Between 1880 and 1920, close to 20 million immigrants arrived in the United States. Concentrated primarily in urban areas, they generated concerns about their ability to fit into American society. Native-born Americans often viewed immigrant poverty and degradation as the source of urban problems, rather than as the result of the upheaval caused by industrialization and urbanization. Social welfare workers tried to reassure mainstream society that this wave of immigrants would blend in just as previous generations of new arrivals had done.
1. How does the author of the article convey a sense of immigrants as machines?
2. According to Wald, what do immigrants really need?
3. How does Wald put a human face on immigrants?
4. Is Wald optimistic about the immigrants future in America?
5. According to Wald, how has America contributed to the immigrants problems?
6. How do Walds background and training influence her attitude towards the immigrants?
7. According to Wald, why are Russian immigrants more optimistic than their American contemporaries? How will their presence benefit America?
8. What is the best way for immigrant girls to avoid immoral behavior, according to Wald?

Katherina Reiche, Parliamentary State Secretary at the Federal Environment Ministry, has highlighted the importance of solar power from Morocco for the future energy supply of Morocco as well as for Europe and Germany. "Morocco is a key partner for the development and implementation of the Mediterranean Solar Plan and the Desertec Initiative, which have the approval and support of the German government", Parliamentary State Secretary Reiche said on the occasion of the opening of the conference "Morocco - a partner country for renewable energies" in Berlin.
The German government's Energy Concept places particular emphasis on cooperation between Germany and North African countries. According to scenarios on energy supply up to 2050, Germany will import a certain share of renewable electricity, for example from countries in Northern Africa, to benefit from cost advantages due to high levels of sunshine in countries such as Morocco. In order to facilitate schemes like this in the medium to long term, Article 9 of the EU Directive on energy from renewable sources, adopted in 2009, provides a framework which needs to be fleshed out with specific agreements. "We will develop a strategy this year and discuss it with other EU members and with Morocco", Katherina Reiche commented in the presence of Morocco's Energy Minister Amina Benkhadra. Both signed a joint declaration of cooperation.
The German Environment Ministry had commissioned the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) to conduct three studies on concentrating solar power and thus provided key scientific foundations for the Desertec vision of promoting innovation, employment and economic growth through renewable electricity from the desert, both in North African countries and in Europe. "The win-win situation arising from the establishment of European companies in Morocco and the research platforms to develop the technologies further and thus reduce costs for all parties is very important to us", stressed the Parliamentary State Secretary.

Benchmark crude for February delivery rose 40 cents midday Bangkok time to $91.27 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
The contract fell Thursday following a reported drop in U.S. consumer confidence and growing pessimism that President Barack Obama and Republican lawmakers will reach a compromise on ways to avoid the so-called fiscal cliff—hundreds of billions of dollars in government spending cuts and tax increases that take effect automatically in 2013 unless lawmakers act.
Hopes that a compromise might be reached were raised after Obama, who cut his Hawaii vacation short, invited congressional leaders to the White House for talks Friday.
In other energy futures trading:
— Wholesale gasoline rose 1.2 cents to $2.8334 a gallon.
— Brent crude, used to price various kinds of foreign oil, rose 48 cents to $111.28 per barrel in London.
— Heating oil rose 0.3 cent to $3.0522 a gallon.
— Natural gas lost 1.3 cents to $3.399 per 1,000 cubic feet.

About Aleksa Diamond
Aleska Diamond is a green eyed girl from Hungary who began her porn career in late 2007 with some nude modeling. She went to a casting call and was asked what sex acts she was willing to perform and became angry because she didn't know it was for a porn movie. A few months later she thought about it and phoned her agent and expressed her willingness to do solo or girl girl scenes and her career took off from there.
One of her first hardcore performances was for the movie called "Barely Legal 109" from Hustler Video in 2009. Her scene was the third one with partner Otto Bauer and they have a typical hardcore scene. Plenty of fucking and sucking followed by a facial cumshot signaled Aleska's solid entry into the hardcore boy girl genre.
By 2011 Aleska had already been nominated and won awards from AVN, XBIZ, Galaxy and others. One of her nominations was for the movie "Private Gold 105: A Fucking Christmas Dinner" from Private studios. She performs in two scenes in the movie and the award for Best Sex Scene in a Foreign-Shot Production was for scene six. It's a Christmas dinner party scene that turns into a full on orgy involving all of the movies cast members.
Aleska won the 2012 AVN award for Female Foreign Performer of the Year and gave a brief interview following the announcement. She said that she immediately phone up the people close to her and let them know the good news. She was asked about her favorite sexual position and she loves being on top and also when her man is fucking her from behind while she's on her hands and knees. She doesn't like shooting where it's cold but absolutely loves the tropical and warm places.
She has no plans to retire and in fact considers this still the beginning of her career. She has an official blog that she maintains and also her own Twitter account with over 19,200 followers on which she posts to her friends and fans everyday.

A Thomasville man remains in jail, accused of threatening a witness in an upcoming murder trial with a gun.
Police say 23-year old Oscar Jackson threatened to kill 23-year old Derek Johnson around midnight Friday outside Waffle House.
Jackson is also charged with witness tampering because Johnson is a witness in the 2010 murder of Christopher Crumby.
"Based on information we had received, that the victim was actually a witness in an upcoming murder trial that is coming up very soon. We don't know if that was the actual reason he was being threatened, but some information kind of indicated that was the case."
Investigators say they do not know the connection between Jackson and Johnson.
Jackson is charged with aggravated assault, witness tampering, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime.
