Robert "Bob" Nanni, 62, has been named Hardeeville city manager after a unanimous vote by City Council on Wednesday during a special executive session.
Nanni's hiring ends a search for a city manager that started when Ted Felder resigned Feb. 1. Nanni will start work Monday going through a transition period with Carey Smith whose contract expires Nov. 30. He will be paid $90,000 annually and have a city-issued vehicle.
Nanni most recently served as chief of operations from 2008-2011 for the Osceola County School District in Florida. Before that, he worked for two years in the private sector managing residential community development districts in Central Florida.
He served from 2002-2006 as assistant county manager for Osceola County and as deputy city manager. He was city manager for the City of Palm Bay, Fla., from 1994-2002 where he was also the public works director from 1991-1994.
Additional experience in the private sector includes work with General Motors, Roadway Express Inc. and NCR Corp.
Nanni is a graduate of Defiance College in Ohio with a bachelor of arts in economics and finance and a master's of science degree in business management from Central Michigan University.
Nanni was born and raised in northeast Pennsylvania. He served four years in the U.S. Air Force. His wife, Jodie, works as an educator. The Nannis have one son, Sam, 15, and one daughter, Carina, 31.
"He has great experience and will do a very fine job with the city," Smith said. "The compensation package is competitive with the area and will give him room to grow."
A total of 66 people submitted applications for the position, and the candidates were winnowed down to the last group from which Nanni was chosen. Also in the final three were Jeffrey E. Repp of Cumberland, Md., and Oel Wingo of Reddick, Fla.
The selection process was carried out with Slavin Management Consultants of Norcross, Ga.
"This was a united decision on the part of the council," said Hardeeville Mayor Bronco Bostick. "What I was concerned about was getting a man with a lot of experience. And one of the things I was pushing for was not to exceed Beaufort, Bluffton or Jasper County salaries. He's done a lot of economic development, bringing in businesses. We all felt he was the right guy for the job."

Yankees juggle pitching staff
ST. PETERSBURG -- After surrendering 27 runs to the Rays over the last two games and losing Ivan Nova to injury, the Yankees shuffled their pitching staff prior to Sunday's series finale at Tropicana Field.
In addition to reinstating first baseman Mark Teixeira from the 15-day disabled list, New York recalled right-hander Preston Claiborne from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and right-hander Bryan Mitchell from Double-A Trenton.
"We spent a lot of time last night talking about the moves that we were going to make to get some extra pitching here and activate Tex," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.
Nova was placed on the 15-day disabled list with an ulnar collateral ligament injury to his right elbow, and New York optioned infielder Scott Sizemore to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The club also designated right-hander Matt Daley for assignment.
Girardi said that it was a difficult decision to send down Sizemore, who had four hits in 13 at-bats (.308) with two doubles and four RBIs in five games after he returned from his second reconstructive knee surgery.
Dean Anna and Yangervis Solarte remain on the roster as reserve infielders. Girardi said that Anna's ability to play shortstop gave him an edge over Sizemore.
"It's tough. The kid did everything right," Girardi said of Sizemore. "Obviously, he has put himself back on the map. He's been hurt the last couple of years, but he helped us win a couple of games. Sometimes it comes down to a numbers game."

Driverless Car Rigged to Ram White House Gate so Man Could Spray Graffiti
Car owner wanted to spray "don't tread on me" snake on White House grounds.
June 14, 2013 -- An Ohio man who rigged his Jeep Patriot to ram the White House gates has told authorities that he planned to spray paint the "don'' tread on me" snake somewhere on the White House complex or "die trying," according to court documents released today.
Photos of Joseph Reel's wrecked car and the 200 rounds of ammunition, knives, machetes and other items found in his car were released today along with details of Reel's plan to spray graffiti on the White House.
Reel, 32, of Kettering, Ohio, has been charged with destruction of property and is being held in federal custody.
The suspect aimed his car at the White House gates and a security post manned by uniformed Secret Service officers shortly after 3 a.m. Sunday and sent it charging at a speed of 35 to 40 mph, according to court documents.
After the car crashed into a steel bike rack and a security bollard, officers found that the vehicle had no driver. A wooden block was secured to the gas pedal by Velcro and the steering wheel was strapped into place.
The Secret Service deployed the Emergency Response Team and the Counter Sniper Team, as well as the Explosives Ordinance Disposal Team.
Reel, meanwhile set off down 17th Street on a bicycle where he was encountered by a Secret Service officer, the court papers state. The officer asked Reel what he was doing and he replied he was "trying to see what was going on."
Officers told him to move out of the area, but Reel rode his bicycle 25 feet, set it down and proceeded to climb the fence outside the Eisenhower Executive Office Building on the White House complex, according to affidavits.
Reel, who was wearing a camouflage T-shirt, was pursued through the grounds after he ignored orders from two officers to stop and was quickly apprehended carrying a can of spray paint wrapped in tape.
He told officers he intended to paint the "don't tread on me snake somewhere on the complex," the affidavit states.
A search of his car found eight knives, two machetes and hundreds of rounds of ammunition and a hand held spotting scope that he told officers he used to surveil the White House grounds, the court document states.
They also found that Reel was carrying hidden in his fingerless gloves a handcuff key, the paperwork states.
In a YouTube video that Reel recorded, he vows that, "I'm just going to walk right up to their front door, and I'm going to spray paint the 'Don't Tread on Me' snake on it. Or I'm going to die trying."
In the angry 8.5 minute long video, Reel states that the "voice of the 'Tea Party: and 'End Government Waste and Abuse' was bullied, stifled, and destroyed by the IRS, while at the same time, the voice of 'free stuff if you vote for me' why, that voice was expedited by the IRS and allowed to flourish."
He also talks about government spying and ammunition purchases by the Department of Homeland Security.
More ominously, Reel calls on others to "round up a few of your most trusted friends to whom you would trust your life to, to bring your favorite weapons – the ones you're most comfortable with, the ones that you're skilled with, and arrive in your vehicles- your favorite vehicles that've been modified for combat."
After securing a search warrant for his Ohio home, law enforcement officers found numerous guns, a spear, a sword, a baseball bat with affixed spikes, two ballistic vests, a gas mask and a metal face shield, he document states.

Ables will also lead the session, "CPR for SharePoint: How to Improve SharePoint Adoption." In this session he will provide an in-depth look into why collaboration tools such as SharePoint fail to meet expectation and what organizations can do to get struggling intranet projects back on track, forge new connections, become more productive, increase employee engagement, and build a lasting culture of collaboration. Attendees will learn:
- 5 trends that are affecting collaboration today
- The mistakes being made by many organizations and how to avoid them
- 10 tips and practical ideas to apply that will get struggling projects back on track
Ables is the author of "The LUCK Principle, Business Results at the Intersection of People & Profit."

WellSpringboard, being developed by researchers from the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, is designed to enable patients to propose, endorse, and pledge funds for research topics. Researchers then would apply for the funding to conduct studies on those topics. Other prize winners in the PCORI Challenge included these: ACTONNECT allows users to search patient forums and other sites for health information and share the results graphically. ResearchMatch is a national registry of potential study volunteers and researchers. Estenda's Community-Driven Research lets patients, caregivers, and researchers share and rank ideas and establish collaborations. S.T.A.R. Initiative is a mobile app that connects African-American women with researchers and educational curricula. APTA's PT in Motion explored crowdsourcing for health care research in its February 2013 issue.

Steve Anderson addresses data security concerns of PIA members
Members can learn best practices for safeguarding client information
GLENMONT, N.Y. –With protection of client data and compliance with consumer privacy regulations a top concern for insurance agents, the Professional Insurance Agents of Connecticut, New Hampshire, New Jersey and New York State provide PIA members access to expert advice through the associations Privacy Compliance Central. Nationally recognized technology expert Steve Anderson, editor of the TAAR Report, gives PIA members a look at how to maintain data confidentiality through an exclusive podcast. Anderson recently issued a report, Client Information Security, available through his Web site at www.steveanderson.com.
"Compliance with ever-changing state and federal rules governing the confidentiality of client information can be complicated," said Diane Fowler, executive director of PIACT, PIANH, PIANJ and PIANY. "Steve Andersons insight, combined with the existing tools available in Privacy Compliance Central, helps members make the best choices about privacy for their businesses."
As part of the associations continual efforts to enhance services offered to members, PIAs Senior Research Analyst Ellen D. Kiehl, Ph.D., interviewed Anderson concerning best practices for securing customer information in insurance agencies. The podcast provides agents with some simple steps to take in order to help protect client data, as well as the benefits of doing so. "Tools are available for agencies to use to understand the issue and to be able to take proactive steps to not only protect client data, but also to demonstrate to any regulatory body that the agency has taken appropriate steps," said Anderson, in the interview.
"PIA is dedicated to enhancing continuously the services offered to members," said Fowler. "PIA Privacy Compliance Central is just one of the many unique benefits that make the work of independent insurance agents easier."
The podcast is just one of many benefits PIA offers members in the realm of privacy compliance. Other resources include:
- Up-to-date regulatory information, including the latest details on requirements for agents in Connecticut, New Hampshire, New Jersey and New York state;
- A privacy compliance questionnaire, to determine if agencies are doing enough to maintain the security of client data; and
- A risk assessment survey, which helps members develop an appropriate written information-security program.
For PIA-member access to Steve Andersons podcast and PIA Privacy Compliance Central, visit PIAs Web site at www.pia.org, or contact PIAs Industry Resource Center at
(800) 424-4244.

Some slayers worship no one while others may be fanatic of lawful or good gods, using their ability to clean the uncleans. Other Classes: Slayer do not tend to fare well with other classes, even other essence user. Combat: A slayer usually aim for easy targets, unprotected spellcasters, glass cannons and other bothersome yet frail individual. Their role is to strike them down with a single blow or full-attack, ending the threat as soon as it appeared.

The Deathbringer fought and almost killed one of the greatest archmage of the land, although the mage disintegrate spell brought this being down. His or her apparency, gender or race shall remain unknown, for only a pile of dust remain. Organizations: It would be a weird (but fearsome) sight to see an organization made entirely of slayers. Although nothing stop a slayer from joining a essence-user organization. NPC Reactions: NPCs tend to react pretty badly toward slayers, known reaction mostly involve fear and scorn.

ALUMNI PROFILE: Bill Levy '94
Residence: Augusta, Ga.
Year of Graduation: 1994
Major: Bachelor of Science in Business Administration; Sport Management Concentration
Current position: Group sales manager for the Augusta GreenJackets, Class A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants
How did you end up coming to RMU?
I went to two prior schools before ultimately transferring to RMU. My original plan of trying to become a baseball coach took a detour, and I focused more on getting involved with the "business" side of industry. I liked how RMU's curriculum was more business-based than other schools.
What was your RMU experience like?
The campus size suited me well, as my professors got to know me personally and professionally. It was also neat to be close to a major city like Pittsburgh, though RMU was far enough away that you can enjoy the peace and quiet.
Did you take part in any other activities/groups at RMU?
I worked for Marty Galosi in the sports information office for several years. I was also an assistant in the intramural office my last year there.
How did you get into minor league sports?
All my professors at RMU kept telling me to get involved and get motivated, so I started getting involved in things both on and off campus. When there was talk of a minor league baseball team coming to my hometown of Wilmington, Del., I contacted the local reporter for the paper there who was covering the story. He put me in touch with Buddy Harrelson, who was one of the team's original owners. Buddy told the G.M. there he was impressed how I tracked him down. That led to an internship there. After doing another internship with the Blue Rocks the following year, I went to graduate school at Delta State University. I missed minor league baseball though, and did another internship with the Hudson Valley Renegades in New York. That helped me land my first full time job in Texas with the Midland RockHounds baseball team and Odessa Jackalopes hockey team, who were under the same ownership group.
What's the minor league world like?
It is different than the show the fans see. We work very long and very hard. There is all kinds of work behind the scenes: selling sponsorships and tickets, coordinating events night after night, being able to adapt on the fly in case of a weather situation, etc. There are all kinds of details the fans don't see that go into the final product. For example, a little league most likely just won't buy hundreds of tickets. At our level, we need to provide incentives such as going onto the field, bringing the mascot to their location, providing order forms for the individual parents to order tickets. There is an awful lot of planning, coordination, and reaching out to many people to pull a night off. Many people have ideas, but you need to pick and choose what you do and what you put your efforts into. Just because we are in sports doesn't mean you are on "easy street," which I think some people think. We are effected by the same factors as other businesses. It is not uncommon for teams to move and/or fold and/or get new ownership and/or make cutbacks and/or get new management teams. So often, like in my case, you may a lot of moves. Many employees also move to another city for a promotion. It is a great feeling though to see an event come together and know that you played a role in it. With all the problems the world seems to have, minor league baseball is one thing that can bring entire communities together.
How has your RMU education helped you in your career?
Anytime I have a problem or I need someone to talk to, I know I can call Dave Synowka. If he can't help me, he will put me in touch with a fellow RMU alumni who understands my situation. I feel connected to RMU. They also are concerned about my future growth, as evidenced by them always wanting me to be a part of their annual sport management conference. This not only allows me to share my thoughts with others, it allows me to learn from both students and industry insiders. Dave also has other ways of keeping the alumni connected. RMU is definitely a school that raises eyebrows when people see it listed on a resume.

Responding to Hyatt's letter of February 2 in which he seems to have authorized the sale of the "Lightfoot," Pomeroy discussed that potential deal and others, regarding the growth and development of Atchison. Pomeroy also discussed making loans at up to 10 percent per month, informed Hyatt that "the Cars run through to St. Jo. To day for the first time," and painted a very optimistic picture of Atchison's prosperity and future prospects. The letter was signed, "Your 'fat belly' friend . . ."

Death in the Digital Age: A life well streamed
Following our success in 2015, the second instalment of our Death in the Digital Age campaign is here!
The first part of our study 2 years ago focussed on online accounts, and how to close them down if a loved one passed away - this time it's all about social etiquette in the event of a death.
Social media has fast become a huge part of our everyday lives, with most people posting, or at least browsing each day.
Has it become the norm to have all of our conversations online, or do we draw a line around the subject of death?
Would you post online to break the news to friends and family about the death of a loved one? And would you be okay with the people in your life posting online if you'd died?
Click here to download our full infographic with the key stats from our research.
We've conducted research on 2,000 UK adults and the results may surprise you:
- 1 in 8 adults have posted online to notify others about the death of a loved one
- 1 in 5 adults want loved ones to post online to notify others about their own death
- 1 in 3 agree that with the rise of social media less people send sympathy cards
What we found interesting is that people are increasingly turning to social media to break the news that a loved one has died. Around 13% of people have posted online to update others about the death of someone, whilst a quarter of people say they wouldn't have known someone had died if it hadn't been shared on social media.
We also found out that about a fifth of people would like to find out via social media if someone has passed away. And almost a quarter of young people under 24 have actually posted online about a friend's death.
Why would we choose to post online?
As part of the study, we wanted to look into the reasons why people would choose to post online, rather than going down a more traditional route and we found that:
- (47%) of adults took the online approach as it was the quickest way to let people know
- (45%) did so to express how they felt about the person
- (25%) said an online update was the only way they could let some people know
- (18%) did so to stop online friends from contacting the deceased online
- (18%) worried they'd see people and have to let them know in person
- (17%) wanted to see nice comments in response to their post
- (16%) said their loved one lived their life online, so it made sense to
- (9%) said they posted just because everyone else does
David Collingwood, our Head of Operations commented:
"Our study reveals that 33% of those adults who want their loved ones to post online when they pass away have already let someone know that this is their wish or communicated it in their funeral plan. I think that's really important - we all deal with grief in different ways and my advice would be to consider if an online post is what your late loved one would have wanted and whether there is a risk of upsetting friends and family members by doing so."
"With people increasingly using social media to update on everyday life, it's no surprise that online sites are more frequently being used as forums to update on the news of someone passing away."
Jennie Bond, Journalist, Broadcaster and Royal Correspondent commented:
"During my career as a journalist, broadcaster and Royal Correspondent, it was my responsibility to report on births, deaths, marriages and everything in between.
"In my role, striking the right balance of sensitivity could be challenging. This is why I find it fascinating that due to the increasing use of social media, our views on posting about people passing away are beginning to change. There aren't the same sensitivities surrounding breaking bad news on our social pages it seems. This is reflected in Co-op's study by the fact that 1 in 10 people see posting online about someone's death as ''normal'."
Our research was conducted in January on behalf of Co-op by ICM among 2000 UK adults.

How 'Bout Spicy Globe Basil?
Slice mail answered.
Awesome! Great email in the inbox today from dhorst. —The Mgmt.
I loved Pizzablogger's photos of the Neapolitan basil and look forward to growing it next year. I thought the flavor profile seems quite similar to my spicy globe basil, but the size and sturdiness of the leaf is much smaller and more delicate. I've attached a photo with a quarter and dime for comparison in size, just for fun. And, hah, I figured out how to size it to 600 pixels wide.
Thanks for all the advice Slice readers.
Also, has anyone out there used lemon basil on pizza?
------------------------------------------------------------ Dear dhorst,
Thanks for the photo. Fun to see the dollar bill scale and the quarter and dime scale. LOL. Congrats on sharpening the photo-editing skills. Glad the Slice'rs helped you out on that thread.
I wonder if Paulie Gee would consider using lemon basil if he hasn't already. The guy is a certified lemon-head.
And no need to thank me for the advice. I'm largely just a conduit for awesome ideas that come from the Slice community. Oh ... and we don't have "readers" on Slice! We have "Slice'rs" -- however awkward that construction may be. All the folks who share photos, tips, and ideas are so much more than just passive readers, and I'm really grateful to be able to facilitate the exchange that goes on here on a daily basis.
Hasta la pizza, Adam

The Fiscal Cliff of Primary Care
Everyone has heard about the Fiscal Cliff that is currently being talked about at the White House, but have you heard about the fiscal cliff of primary care? The Hello Health Blog posted some interesting facts about what they refer to as the fiscal cliff of primary care. At the core of the discussion is whether or not EHR software is a financial win or loss.
Mobile Health Trends and Technology
This post features videos that were taken at the mHealth Summit in Washington D.C. The videos are interviews with various people and describe some of the up and coming mobile health trends and technology. David Collins and Jonathan Dreyer talk about different trends they have seen, and provide a perspective on health applications.
The title of this isn't always true — it is possible for a hospital to have implemented the wrong EHR. However, it's a hard mistake to admit. Especially with EHRs like Epic, which are highly selective and cost so much money.
Oops! Community Hospitals Unhappy with EMR Purchase
The latest KLAS reports revealed that many community hospitals are disappointed with their EMR, and questioning the purchase. Some of the hospitals are even pulling the systems completely from their practice. This may not be the best solution, but some of these hospitals don't feel like it is worth the time and effort.
Jubilee Health Community and NoMoreClipboard Combine Forces To Help Diabetes Patients
Diabetes is very prevalent in the United States today, and it can be difficult to manage. Jubilee Health Community provided NoMoreClipboard with someone of their diabetic patients to help treat and manage their diabetes. After a year, some interesting results were found. In some cases, the health of a patient who actively used the system increased.

The Chinese government has increased its efforts to eradicate the country's growing underground church movement, a Chinese watchdog group said in a recent report. China Aid, which monitors instances of government persecution of the church in China, reported a 42-percent increase in government harassment of Christians and unauthorized places of worship from 2011 to 2012. In its study the Texas-based group, headed by former Chinese house church pastor Bob Fu, documented 132 cases of government persecution involving 4,919 persons in 2012, and noted a 125-percent jump in the number of people arrested and sentenced for involvement in unauthorized Christian worship over the previous year.
China Aid noted that last year the Chinese communist government launched a focused program to wipe out the underground church movement, which competes with the official Three-Self Patriotic Movement, a closely monitored and government approved Protestant church in the country. Among the strategies the government is using, Fu explained, is forcibly banning and closing down worship places that have been operating for years, pressuring churches to join the official "Three-Self" church system, detaining church leaders and sending them to labor camps, and cracking down on Christian outreach to students.
Experts say the government fears the rise of any movement that could gain political clout among large numbers of people in the country. Fu told Fox News that over the past year the government has secretly investigated house churches, creating files on leaders and members, and has followed up by closing down churches using a variety of methods.
"Instead of using law enforcement officials directly to attack churches," Fu told Fox, "last year we found they used a softer approach. They used utility companies, service committees, and neighborhood committees to terminate contracts with rental facilities and cut off electricity and water [to the churches]."
The New American has reported on one particularly overt example of the crackdown, when the Chinese government attacked Beijing's Shouwang Church during Easter season in 2011, detaining several hundred of its members and making it impossible for the congregation to continue meeting in its customary worship location.
In the case of the Shouwang Church, the China Aid report noted, "landlords were pressured to terminate lease agreements with church members, church members who had purchased real estate were unable to take possession of them, church leaders were placed under house arrest, and church members were evicted — all of which was done to make it impossible for the house church to operate normally so that it would eventually disband."
Shouwang Church leaders said that last year members of the congregation were detained 1,600 times, at least 60 members were evicted from their homes, and nearly a dozen lost their jobs because they attended the church's outdoor worship services, where the church was forced to meet after it lost its building. Others were sent back to their hometowns, and some were confined to their homes during weekend services.
The report documented a total of 62 cases of government persecution of Christians in Beijing, the highest throughout the country, impacting nearly 1,000 believers, followed by 11 cases in Xinjiang in northwest China that affected almost 400 Christians. Fu estimated that China has some 80 million Christians, who have grown accustomed to the government's ongoing harassment. "It has almost become routine and that's the danger," Fu told Fox. "And when the Chinese government purposefully uses this kind of soft approach, the foreign media in Beijing won't be able to report it and the government is essentially taking advantage of the passive obedience by the church folks. If it happened to other social groups, there would be large demonstrations."
The China Aid report detailed the three-pronged government attack against the church, designed to force congregations either to register with the government or to disband. In the first phase, which began in January 2012, the State Administration for Religious Affairs (SARA) began secretly investigating house churches across the country, creating files on their members and leaders.
This has been followed by an ongoing crackdown on churches, continuing into 2013, which includes pressuring unauthorized churches to join the Three-Self Patriotic Movement and re-label themselves patriotic "house gatherings" — with the term "house church" being outlawed. While a few house churches have caved in to the pressure and registered with the Three-Self movement, most have resisted, which has resulted in more oppressive persecution.
The third phase of the crackdown is expected to commence in full around 2015 and run for the next 10 years, with the government shutting down churches that have not come under the Three-Self umbrella.
Morning Star News, which reports on Christian persecution around the world, noted several examples of the Chinese government's ongoing crackdown on churches and pastors. "In February 2012, two Christians in Yulin, Shaanxi Province, were sent to a labor camp on charges of being a cult," the news site recalled. "In April, seven leaders of a house church in Pingdingshan, Henan province, were arrested and tried on this charge. In August, nine Christians from Ulanhot, Inner Mongolia, were placed under administrative detention for engaging in evangelism while providing free medical services, and two of them were sentenced to two years of re-education-through-labor."
China Aid's Bob Fu noted that while the government campaign to eradicate churches has targeted some of the larger congregations, China's small house churches continue to proliferate "like dandelions in springtime." He said that those pursuing the effort are ignorant of Scripture and the divine power that undergirds China's Christians. "House churches will not be eradicated," he said. "What will be eradicated are any ideology and forces that try to resist the truth of Christ."
He emphasized that "house churches in China put their trust neither in potentates nor power, much less in man's wisdom and intellect. Rather, they trust in the omnipotence of the Holy Spirit and the truth of Jesus Christ. Nothing can separate us from the love of God, neither persecution or freedom, nor poverty or wealth." He added that in the years to come, "China's churches will face new challenges, and they will continue to renew people's hearts, influence society, and glorify the holy name of the Lord Jesus Christ."

I was inspired after cruising Pinterest one night. (I will be back pinning soon since the new terms of service are much better than the previous ones, just waiting for them to be active) I saw a bookcase that was 16 blocks that stated READ YOUR BOOK CASE. I thought it was genius and decided to take the idea and put my spin on it.
I drew out some measurements (no plans here). Actually, it was all a bunch of chicken scratches on the top of one of the boards. Here is a quick photo story of how it all came together.
|Dry fit of the cubes.
|Assembly started, after dry fit and cutting 20 dadoes.
This was my first time cutting dadoes with a router and I didn't screw it up! YAY! Actually, the only thing I screwed up was the measurement of the two side pieces, which had to be re-cut.
|Assembly of all the connected shelves.
|Backing and floating shelves installed. Onto painting.
|They insisted on helping.
Side note: If I ever build this again, painting will happen before assembly. Trying to paint all those nooks and crannies almost caused me to go insane.
After a nice healthy layer of paint was applied, it was carted up to the school and I hand printed the teachers and children. (All names have been removed for their privacy).
I added some lettering, ala the style of Eric Carle after all the hand printing was done. I love the way it has turned out. Very fun!
I clear coated the entire piece. This way dirty little fingers will wipe off much easier. Once the piece was complete I carted it off to the Woodworking Show in Katy to display it with my woodworking guild's booth. You are looking at the Vice President of the Katy Woodworkers Guild (soon to be President). I had to show something off and this was perfect!
So perfect and I love it so much, that I just might have to come home with it after the preschool fundraising auction! Yes, that means I will probably be bidding on a piece that I know how to build. I also know how crazy that sounds. I wouldn't mind building it again, I just really don't want to paint it again!
The only thing missing from it is a copy of, The Very Hungry Caterpillar , to be autographed by the entire class and placed in the bookcase before auction.

Animal Crossing: Let's Go to the City Cheats[ WII ]
Search "bells" in Animal Crossing: Let's Go to the City Tags :
Code - Want 99,999 Bells?
Step 1#
Go to the Town Hall and deposit atleast 5,000 bells.
You can earn this by shaking the trees in your town and collecting the fruit, then selling it to Tom Nook. Fruit retails for 100 bells each. You can earn 1,300 bells with full pockets of your native fruit.
You can also earn money by going to the gate (by the bus stop) Click on Booker (the dog to the left) and saying you have lost something. Gather all the items in Lost&Found, besides the pitfall seeds (they will earn you 0 bells). Go to Nook's and sell those.
You could also try popping along the the Town Hall and looking in the recycling bin for some items. Gather them and sell at Nook's Place.
Step 2#
Save your current Animal Crossing Game, after, you have deposited the minimum of 5,000 bells.
Continue to your Wii menu. Click on the little Wii (TM) sign in the bottom left hand corner of your screen.
Proceed to settings and then continue to 'Calendar'. Change the date to 1/1/2035. (DD/MM/YYYY).
Go back on to Animal Crossing. Yes, you will have a bed head now, but don't worry. Go to your mailbox and read all your mail. You will most likely have received mail from the following: Mom (with a gift or some money), Happy Room Academy (Just that load of rubbish), some neighbours (sigh) and finally the one you want Bellpoint Notice. Open that mail and read, you will notice you have received an amount of interest from the bank depending on the amount of money you deposited '35 years ago'. Repeat until you are satisfied with the amount of money you have.

We are transitioning to a new name, Flex Business School. This is the logo concept we need designed. We will soon be offering paid features like classes with real-life executives.
We don't think of ourselves as a traditional type of business school, we are something entirely new and exciting. This concept needs to come across in in the logo. Something like web 2.0 meets a traditional school logo. Fun and fresh but scholarly at the same time.
- we want the words to be the logo (not a big design plus the words)
- give emphasis to the words "Flex Business" and play down the word "school"
We want to sell business school classes that are built for people who want immediate results and not have to wait 2 years for a traditional business school education.
A few companies that are similarly positioned in the private, for-profit education space:
**** These are just for market reference, not intended to represent design direction ****
I need something that instantly makes people interested in a new business schools concept.
The logo should say we are a new, exciting business school that will produce IMMEDIATE results for your company.
FLEX BUSINESS should be the focus of the design - the school part of the name should be complementary.

Daniel Hernandez was really attached to his half-eaten burrito, according to the Volusia County Sheriff's Office.
Orlando's WESH-TV reports the 36-year-old was arrested early Monday morning for drunken driving in Deltona, Fla.
Deputies say Hernandez was driving erratically, hitting a curb and swerving in and out of his lane. He then stopped about 50 feet from an intersection and stayed there for 15 minutes before deputies arrived to find him apparently unconscious, holding a Taco Bell burrito.
He was so far gone, deputies had to break in his driver-side window to retrieve him, according to the report. Even then, it took paramedics a few minutes to wake him up.
His blood-alcohol level was twice the legal limit.

Three new congregations have been established in the past year, with more than 100 people attending the first service in each new village. The Mozambique Lutheran Church has no pastors of its own, so ministry is overseen by eight local men preparing for ministry.

Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter walked out of jail in Key West, Florida, Thursday after being arrested following a fight outside a bar.
The 35-year-old was being held at the Monroe County jail, and made an appearance before a judge on a misdemeanor battery charge.
Carter jumped into a taxicab after he bonded out. He told reporters he was trying to enjoy vacation, and the truth will come out.
U.S. & World
According to a Key West Police report, Carter was intoxicated when officers arrived Wednesday evening at the popular Hog's Breath Saloon.
The report says a bartender refused to serve Carter and Michael Rae Papayans of Palos Verdes Estates, California, who became agitated and aggressive. The bar's staff repeatedly told both men to leave.
According to the report, once outside, Papayans head-butted one employee and Carter then grabbed a bouncer by the throat.
Papayans, 27, also was held on a misdemeanor battery charge. Jail records don't show whether either man has an attorney.
The "Dancing With the Stars" contestant has had previous brushes with the law. He was arrest following an incident at a Florida nightclub in 2002 and in 2005 he was arrested and charged with driving under the influence. After attending mandatory alcohol education classes and Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, at the time, Carter told People magazine that he would never "get behind the wheel and drink again," adding that the classes were "so good for me."
Previous version of this story said Nick Carter was a former member of Backstreet Boys.

The new filing from SeaWorld — owned by private equity firm Blackstone Group, which has taken to borrowing some penguins — also bulked up its risk disclosures.
The changes to language, which typically come after prodding from an SEC reading, give a clearer view into what the company sees as its dangers. SeaWorld gave the economy its own separate risk factor and put it first.

Sept 23, 2014 – Nigerian Witches Say Jonathan Will Win Reelection Because He Has Supernatural Powers
Nigerian Witches Endorse GEJ Again: President Jonathan In Secret Society Membership Scandal
Again the Nigeria's chapter of the Witches Association of the world has endorsed Jonathan for 2015 reelection.
The group tagged "The Inner Coven Society Worldwide" says Jonathan's supernatural powers has earned him their favour.
Hear what the group told Daily Sun about Jonathan:
"The Inner Coven Society World-wide, as the minds that have travelled into the unseen and the unknown, is using this opportunity to say that the 2015 presidential election in Nigeria is a foregone issue. The election has been won and lost in the spirit realm. The candidate who by destiny has the overwhelming support of our society as well as other supernatural principalities in the high places is President Jonathan and he has won the election."
"The Inner Coven Society worldwide is not a political organisation; neither are we affiliated to any political party or association. Our society is the general assembly of all the witches across the various continents of the earth.
Please tell these dumb group to keep quiet. Who are they before God Almighty the creator of heaven and earth. Witches are ants before our Lord Jesus so they should keep quiet.
If Jonathan wins the election in the absence of rigging, then God has permitted him to rule Nigeria again and not by the permission of some ants in the underworld.
President Jonathan has made history as the first Nigerian president to be endorsed twice by Witches within a year.
Recall that the association of Witches Wizards of Nigeria endorsed him few months ago.
This will further fuel the rumour going round that President Jonathan is an occultic man.
The rumour started in 2011 when the witches association first endorsed him and since then, he has been gaining support despite non-stop bloodshed and unrest under his administration.
Jonathan has never come open to dissociate himself from this group.
Na God go help us… lips sealed #baba God pass all evil doers, their days are numbered.

MISMANAGEMENT CHARGED The United States trustee has filed a motion seeking the appointment of a trustee in the Dynegy Holdings bankruptcy case, citing ''gross mismanagement by current management.''
A report by a court-appointed examiner in the bankruptcy case, released on Friday, found that a restructuring of assets before Dynegy Holdings, a subsidiary of the Houston-based power company Dynegy Inc., filed for bankruptcy protection represented a ''fraudulent transfer'' and that the board of Dynegy Holdings had breached its fiduciary duty.
DISGRUNTLED INVESTOR A top investor in the Sealy Corporation, the mattress maker, is pushing to remake the board, taking aim at a single shareholder, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts.
H Partners Management, which owns 14.5 percent of the company, is calling for a seat on the board. It is also asking for the resignation of Dean B. Nelson, a representative of K.K.R., the large private equity firm and Sealy's largest shareholder. H Partners Management criticizes what it calls the private equity firm's ''dominance'' on the board.

BILLIONAIRES CLUB Bloomberg announced the creation of a Billionaires Index last week. Updated daily at 5:30 p.m., the list will track, in more or less real time, the wealth of the world's 20 richest people.
The announcement was seemingly timed to steal a bit of thunder from Forbes, which was scheduled to announce the 2012 edition of its own long-running list of billionaires later in the week. Not to be outdone, Forbes announced that it was preparing to introduce a real-time list that would track gains and losses for 50 billionaires, with updates every 15 minutes. KEVIN ROOSE
