Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours and hoping it is healthy and lucky.
I know their will be others who will start another thread wishing you all a Merry Christmas, but this is mine, so, to everyone here I wish you all a day in which you will remember, everything you deserve to get, and one that can't be beat. Be grateful.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours and hoping it is healthy and lucky.
Merry Christmas to you too Cookie!
And also to everyone else on the forum...
I did some shopping today after work,and boy oh boy, people are mean, LOL...
I had to shove this 99 year old woman to get the last shirt I wanted, lol,
Now, I was just joking on that... lol.
But, I just spent the last hour or so, getting groceries together to take over to my son's house. To help him out. Now, for those of you who think this is no great thing, well it is. For 2 reasons. One, I am shocked to pieces that I am here to do it. By all accounts I guess, I shouldn't be. My big C, isn't a good one, it has been wickedly mean and holding on for its dear life, but not more than I have been.
My mom did the same thing for me, before I lost her in1985, and I was expecting my first son, infact, the son I have been packing up groceries for. Kind of ironic, that I am now doing the same thing. AND, I bought diapers and wipes for my grandson. Geez, it brings back memories because she did the same thing, too. After he was born, I was washing out diapers and, she came along with that sack if Pampers.
I am thrilled to be doing the same thing. This is my first Xmas in helping my son, and grandson.
Life, is not always the way you planned it. Sometimes, it is just a struggle, and I know I am not alone in this school of thought here.
I just want people to know, that you can do it, that you can take on whatever, you want to change in life. Sometimes it is just grueling, sometimes, even cruel, but, when you put your mind to something, you can do it.
I have talked personally to many people on this forum with many different kinds of problems, so, for those of you who don't want to hear this or read this, or is offended by my mentioning the Big C... well, I can't apologize, because their are too many who do want to know and want to hear words of encouragement.
I am having a great Christmas no matter that important people are missing in my life, no matter my mortage won't get paid this month and Elmer Fudd will be calling, no matter that I again, have to probably fight the beast again, since, I got a problem again, but, just so you know, those who have been there, and for those who will be there in the future, I want to say, to make it all count, take blessings and be happy...
You can do it. You can make each day the way you want it, and if you need help, for those who know me, knows I am here.
Have a blessed, happy New Year.

Analysis: He's an athletic kid who has played all over the field. His ability to run with the ball in the open field and catch the ball on offense show what kind of athlete the Wolverines are getting. He's going to be able to run to the football and drop into coverage. His team made a nice playoff run last year, but he does not consistently play against top level competition, so he will have more of an adjustment at the college level. That said, he has all of the tools you look for and given the Wolverines' previous linebacker class, he is not a kid who is likely to be pressed into service right away.
Rankings/Final Word: I think we have him ranked fairly right now as a mid 4-star and the 10th best player in Ohio. Anything can happen as far as movement up or down depending on his season, but because of his commitment, it is not likely we will see him at many camps this summer.
Analysis: Willies is a big target at 6'3, 190-lbs. At that size though, he is still capable of making plays after the catch, as he took his share of short passes for long gains last season. He's an outstanding hurdler and has good speed and athleticism for a kid with his frame. He's still a little on the raw side and can improve his route running, but he has a great skill set and he's also a physical, willing blocker. For a big guy, we didn't see him thrown a lot of jump balls, so it's hard to say if that's something he has in his arsenal at this point in time.
Rankings/Final Word: Tall, long strider and a standout on the track, all good qualities to have in a wide receiver. Willies is currently unranked, but should be a high three-star in the upcoming update.
Analysis: Dillard is a pancake machine who regularly buries whoever is across from him. Playing in a run heavy system, the biggest thing he will have to work on is his pass protection, something he is doing in the offseason. A high school tackle, we have Dillard ranked as a guard, and Florida may play him at center and that could be a great spot for him. He's physical, plays hard and is a strong kid and we know he will do very well as a run blocker, and he's working to add in the pass blocking side of things.
Rankings/Final Word: Right now, Dillard is a solid 3-star and one of the top 15 prospects in the state of Michigan. Continued improvement in his pass blocking should improve his ranking, but regardless, he has found a good home and center is a position he can have a lot of success at.
Analysis: When I first saw Kenney he was the size of an outside linebacker, but he grew into his body, filled out, and now is a thicker kid at 6'3, 255-lbs. He may end up going inside to tackle even, but given his ability to get off the ball and rush the passer, I see him at end initially. He's agile, quick, and has good closing speed. He's a high motor kid who pursues the football and is consistently disruptive.
Rankings/Final Word: A Scout 300 member, Kenney is currently a 3-star, but will be elevated to a four once the full complement of four stars is added.
Analysis: I think schools wanted to see Willis in person work out as a corner or receiver this summer, so it was good for CMU to get him locked up this early. He's a great athlete with outstanding open field elusiveness and a general knack for finding creases and making plays. Teams geared up to stop him last year and still couldn't do it. The question is, how will he handle the little things at receiver? How are his hands? How is his route running? How is his blocking? All those things remain unknown, but what is known is that if you put the ball in his hands enough times, he'll put points on the scoreboard.
Rankings/Final Word: Currently unranked, Willis should be a 3-star and a top 25 player in the state of Michigan when rankings expand.

Thermostatics are used world wide; PB is not. Go figure.
With only one shower head, you only need a 1/2" diameter not a 3/4" diameter thermostatic. Saves you money.
At http://starcraftcustombuilders.com/articleslist.htm are articles that will help you get an idea which company makes products of high or low quality.
P-Pf is medium low. Moen too.
Delta is OK.
Anything above Delta is good, and can get expensive.
Nobody is giving it away. It's not a commodity and they won't make it into one.
Hope this helps.
It's a start.

GreatSchools Rating
John Yehall Chin is a great school. My son just transferred to this school during the 5th grade. Ms. Annie Luu is an excellent teacher. She is extremely attentive to all her students and she is strict with her homework assignments. Although she assigns a lot of homework, the students love her! The principal, Mr. Lee, is outstanding also. I am sorry I did not start my son at this school during kindergarten.
My child is still afraid of the administrators at John Yehall Chin. We were attracted by JYC s high test scores and thought the discipline would be a positive, but on two separate occasions, our Kindergartener was threatened by different members of JYC staff. We saw our talkative and inquisitive child learn to stop asking questions. For children who quietly sit down to receive instruction and don t stand out too much, it seems to work. For our child, attending John Yehall Chin was a year to try to forget.
Excellent, but the after school leaves something to be desired. Excellent, dedicated teachers and [mostly] good kids with minimal bad eggs. The principal is kind but strict. I've enjoyed my 4th and 5th grade here.
After changing two private schools for my child finally we found academically better school and at no cost. We are very happy with teachers, school staff and kids are disciplined and nice. They also have an excellent afterschool program and every morning professional karate lessons.
As a former student of John Yehall Chin I must say I wouldn't have had my elementary years at any other school. The teachers were challenging but the work was reasonable. The principal took the time to learn every single students name every year. Even now when I go back to visit he remembers my name & I see him saying "Goodbye, see you tomorrow ____" to every student.
This is a great school in San Francisco.All the teachers are kind and nice.They will get your child really smart fast!!!
My child will be in the 1st grade this year. In my experience and observations, I have to tell you how impressed I am with the dedication of the principal mr. lee. He looks out for every student. He, mrs. lam and the other teachers knows each students names. Being new to the school my husband and I felt like part of the school's family. Our son's teacher is so great! I volunteered at school so I got to know mrs. tina lee and the students in room 207. She is soft spoken, kind and firm to the kindregarteners in her class. My son enjoyed writing in his jounal. Which he learned everything from writing his name to composition etc. He made many fun school projects were so happy to see. My son enjoyed computer, music,drama they had a play too. Maybe sports will be in the near future.
My child had a great education at Chin. The student are well behaved and good discipline. The work is challenging. Sometimes the change in principal has been very difficult. There are meetings about the school and many parents never are invited.

Here's the complete schedule of SEC football games this weekend with details, analysis and a score prediction for each game.
My record last week was 10-0. My record after week 4, straight-up, is 39-5.
Schedule of Saturday, Sept. 29 Games
*Rankings are AP first/Coaches second
OPEN: Auburn (1-3, 0-2 SEC); #11/12 Florida (4-0, 3-0 SEC); #19/21 Mississippi State (4-0, 1-0 SEC); Vanderbilt (1-3, 0-2 SEC)
Missouri (2-2, 0-2 SEC) at Central Florida (2-1)
12 p.m. ET / 11 a.m. CT • FSN
Orlando, Fla. • Bright House Networks Stadium (45,301)
Vince's View: UCF is actually the favorite in this game, if you can believe that. UCF isn't eligible for the postseason but it has generally still played hard. UCF has speed and athletes. UCF also won't be greatly out-sized in this game like it would versus many other SEC teams. Missouri has been up-and-down this season. The Tigers have wins outside of SEC play, but both of those came at home. Mizzou has had field goal kicking issues. QB James Franklin is struggling. If he doesn't improve this week, the Knights can win this game. He deserves the benefit of the doubt though.
Winner: Missouri 35-27
Arkansas (1-3, 0-1 SEC) at Texas A&M (2-1, 0-1 SEC)
12:21 p.m. ET / 11:21 a.m. CT • SEC Network
College Station, Texas • Kyle Field (82,589)
Vince's View: The Arkansas defense is going to have a tough time defending the Aggies, especially QB Johnny Manziel. Manziel is a dual-threat QB who has been poised and fantastic on third-down. Turnovers have killed the Razorbacks this year. A&M has been pretty good in that department. That will be the key in this one for the Aggies.
Winner: Texas A&M 41-27
Tennessee (3-1, 0-1 SEC) at #5 Georgia (4-0, 2-0 SEC)
3:30 p.m. ET / 2:30 p.m. CT • CBS Sports
Athens, Ga. • Sanford Stadium (92,746)
Vince's View: Georgia's defense is getting better every week. Now, it looks like it gets two more elite starters back this week in ILB Alec Ogletree and FS Bacarri Rambo. Georgia's offensive line has been better than expected. The freshmen RBs Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall have been as good, or better, than advertised. Tennessee has a puncher's chance because of the passing game firepower when QB Tyler Bray and the talented receivers are on-point. The Vols have had issues with: knowing assignments due to communication breakdowns; tackling; speed in the secondary; converting in short yardage on offense; inconsistent running game; place-kicking; handling adversity when behind on the scoreboard; winning on the road outside the state of Tennessee in the SEC under Derek Dooley; and beating a ranked opponent under Derek Dooley. That's a long list for UT to overcome, if it plays as we've seen this season. In order for Tennessee to win, this needs to be the single best game Tennessee has played in the Derek Dooley era. Plus, Georgia has to be disinterested and lose the turnover battle by two or more.
Winner: Georgia 35-14
Towson (2-1) at #3 LSU (4-0, 1-0 SEC)
7 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. CT • ESPNU
Baton Rouge, La. • Tiger Stadium (92,542)
Vince's View: None needed.
Winner: LSU 59-0
#6 South Carolina (4-0, 2-0 SEC) at Kentucky (1-3, 0-1 SEC)
7 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. CT • ESPN2
Lexington, Ky. • Commonwealth Stadium / C.M. Newton Field (67,942)
Vince's View: South Carolina is playing terrific defense. Now, the Gamecocks get All-SEC safety D.J. Swearinger back from his one-game suspension. Also, CB Akeem Auguste will see some action in his return from injury. Not that SC needs the additional help. Kentucky should get starting QB Max Smith back this game, which will at least give the 'Cats some sort of offense. Kentucky isn't good enough to stop SC and win this game.
Winner: South Carolina 45-13
Ole Miss (3-1) at #1 Alabama (4-0, 1-0 SEC)
9:15 p.m. ET / 8:15 p.m. CT • ESPN
Tuscaloosa, Ala. • Bryant-Denny Stadium (101,821)
Vince's View: How dominant has Alabama's defense been? The Tide defense has held opponents to less than 20 yards in 33 of 47 drives (70%) this season. Opposing offenses have been held to less than 10 yards in 24 of 47 drives (51%). Alabama is giving-up an average of only 5 points per game. That being said, as strange as it sounds, Ole Miss has the best offense (24th in the country) Alabama has faced this year. Ole Miss' defense can't stop physical, balanced teams. QB A.J. McCarron is 4th in the country in passing efficiency. The Tide RB stable is deep and talented. The offensive line is one of the country's best units.
Winner: Alabama 38-10

AUSTIN -- There are just 11 days remaining in the regular session of the 83rd Texas Legislature, and pressure is mounting on tense negotiations over the state budget.
Thursday morning, House Appropriations Committee Vice Chair Sylvester Turner (D-Houston) accused Gov. Rick Perry (R-Texas) of pressuring Republicans to move the goalposts on school funding, an allegation the governor's office denies.
"We were told yesterday morning by the leadership the governor says we spend too much on education. The governor is lobbying Republican members to vote no on education," said Turner, a member of the conference committee charged with rectifying the House and Senate versions of state budget bill SB 1.
Turner says Republican leaders agreed to a deal Friday that would add $2.5 billion in general revenue and return $1.4 billion in tax revenue gained from increased property values to schools for a total of $3.9 billion, in exchange for Democrat support of a plan to appropriate $2 billion from the rainy day fund to finance a water bank created pending a statewide election.
Turner says after reaching another agreement Tuesday night, House Speaker Joe Straus (R-San Antonio) indicated Wednesday morning the deal would not go over $3.5 billion, threatening a special session with even less money for education if Democrats don't agree.
Turner argued Thursday morning the failure to compromise isn't the fault of Democrats, blaming Republicans for altering the deal.
"That was the agreement last week, that's where we are today," said Turner. "You got your spending cap you're standing underneath that. I thought that was important. You wanted the water, we're giving you that. You wanted roads we're giving you that. What more do you want?"
The latest deal would include $3.2 billion in additional education and roughly $300 million for the Teacher Retirement System of Texas. Turner claimed Republicans were more interested in funding "special projects," such as the governor's proposed tax relief initiatives, than fully funding education, and had threatened to return to social issues such as abortion in a special session.
Speaking with media at an event Thursday to mark the signing of the Michael Morton Act into law, Perry brushed off questions over where education funding should top out.
"I know how this process works," said Perry. "I'm working with the members of the legislature. I frankly am not going to craft the budget here with you all today."
The governor instead reemphasized his expectations for the legislature to avoid a special session.
"Send a budget to me that is balanced, that has substantial tax relief, I have said $1.8 billion, that has addressed the needs of this state, particularly dealing with water infrastructure, with highway transportation infrastructure, and then we can get out of here on time," said Perry. "I think we're really close to getting all those things done."
"I'm sure there are folks that would like to blow up the session just to see the pieces of the machinery blow up through the air," Perry added. "But these men and women standing here with me and the rest of the members by and large are about getting our work done and prioritizing what's important."
Other signs seemed to indicate despite the differences, a compromise was near. Dozens packed a conference room waiting for a 2:00 p.m. public hearing called by the conference committee on SB 1, only for it to be postponed an hour, then indefinitely.
The only thing sure for now is that time is running out.

One remains in intensive care after late Friday crash
Elizabethton police say alcohol could have been a contributing factor to a two-vehicle crash on the Elizabethton Highway late Friday night that left three with serious injuries.
Information released by the Elizabethton Police Department names Stormey Shepherd, 23, 262 Lacy Hollow Road, Elizabethton, as the driver of a white GMC pickup and Melissa Robin Carter, 45, 1684 Highway 19E, Elizabethton, as the driver of a maroon Chevy pickup.
In Melissa Carter's vehicle there was a passenger, identified as Penny Lenore Carter, 44, also of 1684 Highway 19E.
Police said Shepherd was travelling east toward Elizabethton and Melissa Carter was travelling west when the two vehicles collided head-on near the Happy Valley Memorial Park shortly before midnight Friday.
The Elizabethton Specialized Traffic Accident Reconstruction Team, called in to investigate the crash, said that the white GMC left its lane and struck the maroon pickup, causing extensive damage to both vehicles.
Because of the severity of the crash, the two Carters were extricated from their vehicle by the Carter County Rescue Squad and the Elizabethton Fire Department.
All three were transported by ambulance from the accident scene to the Johnson City Medical Center.
On Monday morning, Melissa Carter remained in the intensive care unit with an unspecified condition. Penny Carter and Shepherd were no longer listed as patients at the hospital.
According to EPD officers, evidence that points to alcohol as being a contributing factor was collected and at the crash scene and sent to a Tennessee Bureau of Investigation lab for analysis.
Charges are pending at this time.

College Baseball: Hart selected by Orioles in draft
Texas State junior reliever Donnie Hart was the second Bobcat taken in the 2013 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft when the Baltimore Orioles selected him as the 819th overall pick and the 23rd pick in the 27th round Saturday afternoon.
Hart is the 32nd Bobcat to be drafted since head coach Ty Harrington took over the program in 2000 and the 47th overall Texas State baseball player to be drafted in school history.
"It is an unbelievable feeling," Hart said. "This is something you want to happen for a long time, and I'm so thankful Baltimore is giving me a chance to pursue my dream.
"I'm so thankful for all my coaches and teammates because without them I wouldn't be where I am at today. Obviously, I can't thank my family enough for getting me to where I am today as well. They are my number one fans and have supported me all my life with baseball."
Like Kyle Finnegan, Hart also recognized the support of Texas State's fans throughout his career.
"And to Bobcat Nation, thanks for being the best fans a player could ask for," Hart said.
Hart, a lefty sidearmer, was on fire this season.
He started the season on a streak of 25 consecutive appearances (21.1 innings) without giving up an earned run. Hart finished the season with a 2.13 earned run average, lowest on the squad, and struck out 34 batters while being part of three shutouts in 41 appearances, a Texas State school record and the Western Athletic Conference's leading mark this season. Opponents only hit a mere .209 against him, also lowest on the team.
Texas State signee Tyler Vail was selected by the Atlanta Braves with the 613th pick. He was set to transfer to Texas State from Temple College.

backsplash question
We are remodeling small kitchen. I picked out a back splash for behind the sink. I'd like to put the same back splash behind my stove on the opposite wall. My stove does not sit flush to the wall. My question is, do I take the back splash all the way to the floor or just half way down behind the stove and on the 2-3 inches on each side of the stove that is partially visible? The back splash is small (1") tile/glass pieces that comes in a 12x12 sheet. I had thought about going to the floor, but am not sure if I need to or how it would look if I did? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!!
Had a couple of thoughts but wondered if you could return and post photos of your kitchen.
It'd probably save both of us some time. Plus, you'd probably receive many helpful suggestions from other posters, too, if you post photos, IMHO.
Best of luck -
This is where the range sits and a replacement range would be in the same area, right? No need to put your expensive glass tile where no one would see it, so do as you suggested. Down from the top a bit, and anywhere you can see the wall behind it on the side.
Curious, have you any idea why the range cannot go closer/more flush to the wall in the back? I would pull it out and take a look. It may be an easy fix.
Oh, and just in case you could use extra under cabinet lighting or outlets, this is a great time to add the wiring and switches in the wall (prior to the tile application).
Thank you for your responses. I will see if I can get a picture or 2 posted so everyone has a visual better. As for why the stove don't sit flush, if I remember correct, it has to do with the outlet and gas line - they stick out some. Although, I am not home right now to verify that, I'm pretty sure that is why. We have installed some new outlets and some new cabinet lighting for our top cabinets with glass doors, as well as some under cabinet lighting. It's been a long process and I am super excited to have a kitchen again--soon hopefully!
Check on the outlet issue? you may be able to recess the outlet into the wall a bit.
When we installed our last range, it would not go back quite all the way either. The delivery guys suggested we do that, or get a different plug. But I pulled the range out to check, and they had just got the cord smashed in the way, I just moved it a bit (too easy!)
Glad you're still around, Michele.
If you can post pics of both sides of the kitchen or basically each wall, that'd be great! Would love to see your glass tile, too.
Take care -

Yum! I recently made a very similar fruit salad except it had mango instead of kiwi..and a touch of balsamic (and orange juice) in the dressing. I agree–the avocado addition is amazing!
Avocado, Kiwi, and Strawberry Salad
Inspiration: Well, I think spring has finally sprung in good old Michigan. Thank goodness! After weeks and weeks of cold and rain and gloom that just kept coming back, things have finally been looking bright and sunny fairly regularly around here. Cherry blossom trees are blooming, all of the local breweries are coming out with their spring and summer beers, the cats are sitting at the window sniffing their little noses in the fresh air all day long. Life is good. And what spells spring food better than a nice fruit salad?
What We Loved: I told Brandon that this might be my favorite fruit salad that I've ever had. The three components – avocado, kiwi, and strawberry – each brought their their own unique flavors and textures to the dish and paired so perfectly together. The avocado was rich and creamy; the kiwi was tart and tangy with that great crispy texture from the seeds; and the strawberry was nice and sweet. I can't imagine three fruits that would pair better together. And with a touch of lime, fresh cilantro, and salt, all of the ingredients really meshed together for a fantastic salad. I always feel like salt brings out the flavor in avocado so much, and I will never argue with that bright and fresh cilantro flavor. We enjoyed this alongside breakfast bell peppers for a lovely meal.
Helpful Hints: Be gentle when mixing this all together – avocado is fragile and will mush apart on you if you stir too much.
Avocado, Kiwi, and Strawberry Salad
Source: Inspired from Cook Like a Champion & serves two
1 avocado, pitted, peeled, and finely diced
5-6 strawberries, husked and finely diced
2 kiwis, peeled and finely diced
1 small handful cilantro, minced
Juice from 1/4 lime
Kosher salt and black pepper
1. Combine the avocado, strawberries, kiwi, cilantro, and lime juice in a bowl. Gently stir to combine. Season to taste with Kosher salt and black pepper.
8 thoughts on "Avocado, Kiwi, and Strawberry Salad"
Beautiful, and delicious! The creamy avocado probably complements the fruit so nicely! Must try soon :)
You always inspire me with your out-of-the-box (at least for me) ingredient combinations. Who would have ever thought to pair avocado with kiwi and strawberry?! This looks great Carrie, can't wait to try it!
I love all of these ingredients. And the colors are stunning together. Beautiful and delicious. A win-win!

To the dismay of several citizens in the audience, Essex County's board of supervisors decided against adopting a "running at large" ordinance that would put a muzzle on free-roaming dogs.
After a thorough review of both Virginia code and Essex County ordinances, Interim County Administrator Bill Pennell informed the board that, based on allowances by the state code, the county was already fully capable of handling threatening dogs.
"There are two enabling statutes that allow boards of supervisors to adopt local ordinances, one having to do with dogs running at large, and the other having to do with leash laws," Pennell said. "They are in the state code and Essex County enforces those particular codes."
Southern District Supervisor Margaret Davis asked Pennell how the county could police threatening dogs.
"Your ordinance says any dog that chases, snaps at, harasses, or impedes pedestrians, bicycles or vehicles is violating your ordinance, and the owner can be taken to court for a Class 3 misdemeanor with a maximum of a $500 fine," Pennell replied.
Pennell cautioned the board that adopting a running at large ordinance could create more problems than it would solve.
"Running at large is a very, very difficult thing to enforce," Pennell said. "Our animal control officer has been out now a week or ten days because he tried to catch one of those things running at large and has hurt himself."
Pennell added: "Your county ordinances already say that if a dog is out there and… you don't see a collar or a tag…he is presumed to be running at large and can be captured."
Pennell also pointed out the ambiguous nature of the currently proposed ordinance to the board.
"If you have a group of hunters out there with their dogs, and at six in the evening three of their dogs don't come back, those dogs are…technically violating the law if you adopt the running at large legislation that the code of Virginia provides," Pennell explained.
Central District Supervisor Edwin "Bud" Smith agreed.
"It's been my contention all along that the dogs running at large or the leash law would be unenforceable," Smith said. "Having read our own ordinance time and time again, I don't see anything that's not in there that we need to put in there to protect our citizens and companion animals."
Many citizens at the meeting were not satisfied with the board's decision.
Alpaca farmer Wesley Gauvin, who lost 13 alpacas in a dog attack two months ago, questioned whether the county was properly enforcing the ordinances that Pennell addressed.
"The dogs responsible for the alpaca mauling had been picked up and released by the county four documented times and were released with no fines whatsoever," Gauvin said. "A lot of problems I'm hearing about from talking to people in the county have been due to habitual offenses with the same dogs."
Point Breeze resident Oza Bell, whose cat was killed by a dog that allegedly continues to roam her neighborhood, said that she didn't believe the county was keeping accurate records of dog attacks.
"If I have no evidence, then my time is lost," Bell believed. "I think for insurance purposes for the county that at least we would be keeping better records than we are."
Pennell addressed claims that animal control was not giving accurate reports.
"If the animal control guy, John Lee, gets down there and the dog is gone, he's going to clear the call as GOA, gone on arrival, and nobody knows what that dog was except the citizen that saw it, and they think some report comes of it," Pennell explained adding that just because no report is filed does not mean appropriate actions were not taken to ensure public safety.
Greater Tappahannock Supervisor and Chairman E. Stanley Langford also addressed the enforcement issue.
"If the warden is in supply, and a call comes in at Laneview, he's got a forty-five minute to one-hour drive, and when the warden gets there and looks, there's no dog," Langford said. "It takes ten calls to get that dog caught at the right time."

Every body knows, or should know, why West Virginia seceded from the Confederacy. So a question; why did Georgia threaten to secede?
Arroyo, you should read all of the articles, not cherry pick. Because Slavery is very dominant in them. There was 82 mentions of it in your link of 4 states. South Carolina, the first to secede, mentioned Slavery 18 times in their articles.

Alex Anzalone, LB, Wyomissing (Reading, Pa.)
Ht: 6-3 Wt: 232. Class: 2013
Recruiting Buzz: Anzalone changed his commitment from Notre Dame to Florida in early January. The decision drew the ire of Irish fans, who lashed out on Twitter, but gave the Gators five linebackers in the 2013 class.
Anzalone is a five-star recruit considered among the top five LBs and top 75 overall prospects in 2013. With more than 100 tackles in 2012, he was named Pennsylvania Class AA Player of the Year and led his team to an unbeaten season and state title.
Rankings 247 Composite: 98.
National overall: No. 53, National by position: No. 4, State overall: No. 4
Alvin Bailey, WR, Seffner Armwood
Ht: 5-10 Wt: 175 Class: 2013
Recruiting Buzz: Quick, instinctive and slippery, Bailey is ideally suited to play slot receiver and become an immediate contributor on special teams.
Bailey split duties between Wildcat quarterback and wide receiver in high school. When his team won the 2011 6A title, he finished with more than 2,200 yards in total offense.
If he develops his body and learns the nuances of the game, Bailey, who is best friends with Florida running back Matt Jones, could develop into a big-play threat like Chris Rainey.
Rankings 247 Composite: 91.
National overall: No. 179, National by position: No. 22, State overall: No. 26
Caleb Brantley, DT, Crescent City
Ht: 6-3 Wt: 308 Class: 2013
Recruiting Buzz: Brantley faced constant double- and triple-teaming playing nose tackle at the 1A level, but still dominated the competition.
Brantley had 5 ½ tackles for loss in a 21-0 playoff loss to Union County in November. As a junior, 33 of his 99 tackles were for a loss.
Thick, strong and quick, Brantley has all the physical tools. But he will have to adjust as much as any newcomer to the level of competition in college.

Having previously ordered my contact lenses from my high street opticians (Vision Express), I was pleasantly surprised to learn that I could save both time and money using the superb online service of Lenstore.co.uk.
Experience of first order:
I placed my first order for 3 packs of lenses at 16:52 on Friday and the lenses arrived before 09:30 on the Saturday. Simply superb - less than 17 hours from placing the order to the lenses arriving at my door.
Postage & packaging:
Paid £2.99 for postage via Royal Mail First Class and the lenses were packed securely in a hard cardboard box. This was great for providing protection during delivery, whilst also the perfect size for fitting through a standard UK letterbox.
Look no further, if you want fast and cheap delivery of your lenses, by a service oriented company. I would not hesitate to use Lenstore.co.uk again! In fact, I was so impressed that I will be recommending them to both friends and family.
Stylish and easy to use products, backed up by 5 * customer service and technical support.
When things are going well, all is good.
But when things go wrong, be prepared to spend some significant time on the phone to them.
Also, if you book and appointment for an engineer, don't expect them to turn up on time (or at all) and please don't expect a courtesy call to explain why they won't be attending.
Best avoided if at all possible!!
Superb in every way!
Easy to use website, great choice of produce, wide array of suitable delivery times and courteous and helpful delivery staff.
I cannot recommend them enough.
..... and to those of you who say Waitrose is more expensive than the rest. 1. You pay for what you get (you are going to eat it after all) and 2. You can shop smartly with their essentials range and get great value for money.
Major delays (both inbound and outbound), dirty plane with appalling toilets.
On the return flight I was given a broken seat, that would not recline. All I received in compensation was a glass of orange juice.
Additionally, Monarch didn't meet their EU requirements of providing customers with food and drink when the delay exceeded 3 hours. In an attempt to save money they offered a drink (a small bottle of water) OR food (if you can call it that).
I will avoid Monarch at all costs and do my best to avoid package holidays that use them.
Easy to book, pleasant staff and on-time flights. Just unfortunate, that they feel it is acceptable to charge for pre-booking seats.
I am and have been an O2 customer for the last 8 years.
I have Mobile Contracts, Home Phone & Broadband subscriptions with them and have yet to be disappointed.
The Broadband is as advertised (my area doesn't get great speeds - but they accurately informed me of the speeds I would get - thus managing my expectations) and their Home Phone service is great value for money.
Their mobile contracts are similarly good - and in many cases beat their competitors hands down.
They offer a £5 per month discount on their Home Phone & Broadband contracts for O2 Mobile customers and always ensure that existing customers are offered the same great deals and new ones - whether that be 1/2 price broadband for six months or exclusive mobile contracts.
A very, very happy customer! I hope O2 continue to put such an emphasis on great customer service and value for money.
I joined British Gas (Online Saver tariff with Energy Smart) through their website and was pleased at how easy the process had been.
That was where any pleasure of dealing with British Gas stopped and the pain began.
A British Gas employee came to take my Economy 7 meter readings and managed to get the day and night figures mixed up. So, my monthly bill (variable direct debit) arrives and I am told that I owe £5,500 - not happy as I am sure you can imagine.
It took weeks of telephone calls and letters to get the issue resolved with no word of an apology from British Gas, who intact blamed me for their mistake.
To make matters worse, this issue kept reoccurring throughout my 12 month contract and in-fact only stopped after British Gas cancelled my account and created a new one.
The service from British Gas is terrible, the customer support staff are rude and they have no idea how to deal with customers. To top it all, British Gas shirk all responsibility for accurately calculating bills and leave it up to the customer to tell them whether they are getting it right.
I have since left British Gas and will NEVER EVER return.

I have been a shopper with Amazon for many many years and have always encountered a pleasant shopping experience.
Recently, I experienced two problems:
1. Royal Mail loosing my parcel (not Amazons fault) but a full replacement was send quickly and without fuss.
2. Buying a sub standard product - this product was returned (paid for by Amazon) & refunded again without fuss and all through their fantastic online returns facility.
Overall, I am and continue to be a very satisfied customer of Amazon and if you haven't given them a try, I highly recommend that you do.
Placed the 'sell order' for my iPhone 3GS on a Friday, posted the product on the Saturday and received the money on the Monday.
Superb service, quick turnaround times and great communication throughout.
I shall be using Mazuma Mobile again.

ther is no problem the cpu has decreas to.79 to reduces energy consumption and if u strees the cou u will be see it run at normal freqyncy
and turbo post will run if any prog has used one cor and need som speed over then it well run in tubo boost ( the mb had to be turboo boost tecnology)
Thanks , but I've tried a lot of thing like convert a movies , playing 3D games [COD and Prototype] and nothing could move the bar up
any idea ?
Can someone help me solve this problem ?
Since only the processor was given then statements will only based on the cpu. It should be operating from 2.3 Ghz to 2.9 Ghz. If you provide additonal info about your system it should help a lot for anybody willing to help you.
Dell Inspiron N5110
Intel Core i5 2410M
4Gb Ram
Running Os : Windows 7 x64
BIOS only have Intel SpeedStep® Technology
[I've tried disable speedstep and Turbo Boost mornitor won't work, but Intel Processor Indentification still says my Cpu running at 0.79Ghz]
From the picture, the system bus is 100 Mhz. Should it not be 133 Mhz? If you read the FAQ of TurboBoost monitor each bar is an increment/decrement of 133 Mhz. I'm not sure about this since I don't have a Dell system like yours.
Try running another program to confirm that the cpu is running at 0.79 Ghz. You can download and run the open source program "Open Hardware Monitor".
You can also consult Dell technical support about this.
It looks like the laptop is running in single core only. There should be two cores shown in Open Hardware Monitor. I'm not sure if you have the option in bios to change the number of cores. If not you really have to consult Dell about it.
Thanks for helping , I thought that was drivers problem . so i updated driver , but it didnt work .. after that , i saw an update for BIOS , after i updated BIOS , my cpu works like charm
Glad that you solve the problem. So you should now have two cores shown in Open Hardware Monitor? And Turbo Boost Monitor now working?
This is my first generation i5 cpu. It is a quad core cpu thus there are four cores shown in Open Hardware Monitor and also in CPU-Z. Looking at your CPU-Z result your pc is running in single core (see bottom "cores" entry in CPU-Z). Also your cpu is running at a high temperature.
Message was edited by: Boyet
How to enable the other core ?
As stated earlier you go to bios and set the number of cores. Set it to "all". This is for Intel motherboards. Since you have Dell you should ask Dell Tech support about it if you cannot see that option in the bios.

Upcoming Events
June 7th - The Spring Viking Thing
night fighter practice
is now at York Tent
Youth Fighter Practice is now on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month at York Tent
Welcome to Owlsherst, a Shire of the
East Kingdom of the Society for Creative Anachronism,
located in York County, Pennsylvania. We are an
active and growing shire within the Southern Region of the East
This is your invitation to come join us in the Current Middle
Ages! If you've ever imagined yourself being part of the Middle
Ages where two opposing armies of armor-clad fighters face each
other across the field of battle, or where brightly colored pavilions stand with banners
flying, or where gentles in rich costumes feast and dance
together, then you have come to the right place!
We are an educational organization dedicated to
researching, teaching, and recreating the crafts and culture of
the Middle Ages. We have regularly scheduled events,
demonstrations, workshops, guild meetings and other activities.
Authenticity is encouraged, and members put their research into
action by practicing arts such as weaving, calligraphy, cooking,
heraldry, brewing, armouring and making clothes and jewelry. You can also
learn to fight with heavy weapons such as swords and shields, or
to fence with foils, epees and rapiers, or to fight with archery
and thrown weapons. We also attempt to practice the dream of
those lost ideals found in medieval times: Chivalry, Courtesy,
and Honor.
If you're new to the SCA or just visiting from another part of
the kingdom, please check out our calendar of events and don't
hesitate to join us!
The members of Owlsherst would love to have you become
involved in our shire. You'll find us to be a very friendly and
accepting group of medieval enthusiasts of all ages.
