Before the fall of the Soviet Empire, Amsterdam was a must stop on any tour of Europe. The city which has more canals than Venice, ancient castles, remarkable art museums, fun night life and is the most cycle/pedestrian friendly urban area in Europe has been overshadowed by the new kids on the block. Berlin, Prague, Budapest and Barcelona have enticed visitors away from the extraordinary Dutch.
The Royal Kingdom of the Netherlands (Holland is just one state within the Kingdom) still offers stunningly beautiful moments and is Europe at its best. The City of Amsterdam has become lazy around its nightlife (especially in its gay bars) and it is like traveling into a time warp. However, everything else is just spectacular. The cuisine is some of the best in the EU, the architecture is among the best in the world and the people speak English fluently and couldn't be more friendly.
The city is one of the most LGBT friendly in all of the EU. The Gay Pride celebration on the canals in August is unforgettable. With their new King, it is now known as King's Day and it celebrated across the nation at the end of April. The nation becomes a sea of orange.
Here are some photographs just to remind you why to travel to this enchanted modern Royal Kingdom of the Netherlands. (Thanks to BoredDaddy.com for some of these photographs)!

Private and Public in Colorado Springs, CO
What do you do when you suspect a student may be abusing drugs or alcohol?
Student safety and parent participation are both critical to a well-rounded school experience. Colorado Springs ANY LAB TEST NOW® bridges the gap with its Trust, But Verify Program and drug and alcohol testing services.
Discover how we can help your school and parents cope with teen drug use, peer pressure, workplace safety, and random drug and alcohol testing programs. Lab testing services commonly used by parents concerned about their teens, as well as schools and school districts include, but are not limited to:
- Alcohol testing
- Drug testing
- DOT or non-DOT
- 5 panel, 9 panel, or 10 panel
- Rapid drug tests for synthetic cannabinoids, such as K2 and Spice
- Background screens
- Teacher and School Personnel Wellness Discount Program
- MMR titers and Varicella titers for proof of immunization
- Materials and educational presentations for distribution to parents
Teen drug use is on the rise. Legalization of marijuana in some states and the easy access to prescription drugs is compounding the problem. In fact, today more teens smoke marijuana than tobacco¹. School Boards have to decide whether or not a random drug testing program is right for their schools and students. Drug and alcohol testing may be limited to school bus drivers for pre-employment, random, reasonable suspicion and/or post-incident situations. Whichever the case, we have the right drug test to fit your needs.
If your school does not promote a formal drug testing program, ANY LAB TEST NOW Colorado Springs CO has the answer for you and your parents with our Trust, But Verify Program. Either way, we offer options for schools, parents and teens.

Netbook makers point to H2 '09 for dual-core mobile Atom debut
Year's wait ahead
Don't expect a dual-core Atom-based netbook until next summer, manufacturers of Small, Cheap Computers have warned.
This week, Asus chief Jerry Shen promised his company would offer a dual-core Eee PC whenever Intel ships a dual-core Atom suitable for mobile devices. The chip giant, he indicated, has not said when this will be.
However, earlier MSI's US sales supremo, Andy Tang, revealed in an interview with Laptop Magazine that "Intel is holding off on the mobile version of the dual-core Atom processor.
"I don't think we will see availability of that processor until the second half of 2009," he forecast.
Intel has now begun selling a dual-core Atom, the 1.6GHz 330, but it's a desktop part and consumes way more power than would be suitable for an SCC sized around, say, an 8.9in screen.
The 330 consumes 8W of power - the 1.6GHz N270 found in most SCCs consumes just 2.5W.
Hopefully, the dual-core Atom will debut with a more compact, less power-hungry chipset than the 945GSE that today's mobile Atoms come with. It consumes up to 6W - more than double the power demand of the CPU it's paired with.
There's another reason for waiting: the dual-core mobile Atom will be based on a next-gen core, codenamed 'Pineview', which will connect to its I/O chip partner across a DMI (Direct Media Interface) bus rather than a frontside bus - just like the upcoming 'Nehalem' desktop processors.

Kathy Sullivan: Gambling already is widespread and popular hereBY KATHY SULLIVAN
March 04. 2013 5:28PM
New Hampshire is watching the state Legislature debate whether, and how, legalized gambling should be expanded. Count me in as one voter who supports a bill to have an open bidding process to permit a high-end, rigorously regulated casino in New Hampshire.
Opposition to expanded gambling is driven by bad information, lack of information, and bias. One example is the notion that licensing a casino will destroy the New Hampshire we all love. This fails to recognize that gambling already is occurring in our state, and the New Hampshire we love is still here.
Non-lottery, on-premise gambling is a significant industry. According to the fiscal year 2012 annual report of the Racing and Gaming Commission, we have 11 commercial bingo halls and 11 "games of chance" facilities that feature poker rooms and/or table games. Combined, Lucky 7 ticket sales, bingo sales and games-of-chance betting totaled about $155 million in 2012. This represents about an 18 percent growth over the last four years.
There also is video gambling. "Entertainment only" video poker machines are so profitable that the City of Manchester is able to charge a license fee of $2,000 for a machine. A casino with video gaming will put a dent into illegal gambling operations based on these machines.
Gambling opponents point to the "social issues," particularly gambling addiction. Those issues are already here. In addition to the volume of legal and illegal gambling occurring in New Hampshire, a number of residents gamble outside the state. According to a 2009 New Hampshire Center for Public Policy report, 21 percent of the state's residents had gambled at a casino in the prior 12 months. More than half of state residents (56 percent) had engaged in some form of gambling, including casinos and lottery tickets.
Gambling opponents are not realistic about the extent of gambling by New Hampshire residents both inside and outside the state. As a result, they are forcing us to carry the burdens of legal and illegal gambling without the economic benefits of legal expanded gambling, which could address those issues. When Massachusetts opens its casinos and causes the smaller "charitable" New Hampshire facilities to close, we will be deprived of what little revenue we receive from those venues, worsening the fiscal downside of not licensing a casino.
Opponents are pointing to a new Public Policy report to support their inaccurate claims that gambling revenues are not reliable and are down across the county. That less-than-in-depth report, however, cherry picks selected data and fails to provide statistics that point to the opposite conclusion. The report makes the assertion that gambling revenues are down nationally, relying on data from Las Vegas, Atlantic City and New Hampshire lottery ticket sales. Its conclusions flow from that faulty assertion.
Data from the American Gaming Association, which surveys casinos across the country, shows a 1 percent increase in 2010 and a 3 percent increase in 2011. A 2012 University of Massachusetts Center for Policy Analysis study of nine Northeastern states concludes that casino gaming in the Northeast is likely to show continued significant growth over the long term.
In addition, the New Hampshire Public Policy report limited its review of Granite State gambling revenues to an approximate $25 million drop in lottery ticket sales from 2007 through 2011. It failed to note that revenues from table games at "charitable" gambling facilities grew in that same period, from about $45 million in 2008 to $79 million in 2012, a growth of $34 million. Legislators should be careful in relying on the report's conclusions, given its faulty underpinnings.
Another source of opposition stems from those who view gambling disdainfully. For many Granite Staters, however, gambling is a form of entertainment, as legitimate and enjoyable as attending a wine tasting or a concert, and probably more fun than attending a Red Sox game these last two seasons. I know from personal experience, having gambled in Connecticut, Las Vegas and other locations.
Though it may not be everyone's entertainment of choice, the personal biases of a minority should not stand in the way of the economic benefits of a casino to New Hampshire.
If this were an election, gambling would win in a bipartisan landslide. According to the most recent UNH Survey Center poll, 62 percent of those surveyed support expanded gambling, including a strong majority of Democrats at 59 percent and Republicans at 67 percent. Legislators should listen to their constituents on this one, not to opponents who are giving them incomplete or wrong information.
Kathy Sullivan is a Manchester attorney and member of the Democratic National Committee. She was chairman of the state Democratic Party from 1999-2007.

Victorino's 4 hits, 5 RBIs lead Red Sox over TigersSportsDirect Inc.
June 21. 2013 10:57PM
Shane Victorino homered among his four hits and had a career high-tying five RBIs as the Boston Red Sox beat the host Detroit Tigers, 10-6, to even the four-game series at one game apiece.
Jacoby Ellsbury had a pair of hits and two RBIs, and Stephen Drew and Jose Iglesias each had three hits and combined to score five runs as the Red Sox halted a five-game losing streak at Comerica Park. Jon Lester (7-4) labored through 5 2/3 innings, giving up five runs on nine hits, to win for the first time since May 15.
Miguel Cabrera went 4-for-4 with a three-run homer and Andy Dirks added a solo blast for Detroit, which had its lead atop the AL Central cut to three games over Cleveland.
Tigers starter Doug Fister (6-5) was pounded for six runs on 11 hits in 3 1/3 innings.
The Red Sox knocked Fister from the game with six consecutive one-out hits in a four-run fourth, including a two-run double by Ellsbury and two-RBI single from Victorino for a 6-1 lead.
The Tigers answered in the fifth, getting a solo homer from Dirks and a three-run shot from Cabrera — his 10th hit in 16 career at-bats against Lester — to cut the deficit to 6-5.
Boston pulled away on Victorino's RBI single in the sixth before tacking on two runs in the eighth on an RBI groundout by Victorino and bases-loaded wild pitch by Al Alburquerque, who was recalled from Triple-A Toledo earlier Friday.GAME NOTEBOOK: Cabrera had his fifth four-hit game of the season while extending his hitting streak to seven games and boosting his major league-leading RBI total to 74 in 72 games. He also reached 20 homers for the seventh straight season with Detroit. ... Both teams made moves involving their closers. The Red Sox elevated Koji Uehara into the role in place of Andrew Bailey, who blew in fourth save chance in Thursday's series opener, while the Tigers designated closer Jose Valverde for assignment. ... Boston C David Ross was diagnosed with a concussion — his second of the season — and has been shut down from all baseball activities until he is re-evaluated in early July.

BOSTON (AP) — It's big, beautiful and free, but a 217-acre former prep school campus in the hills of northern Massachusetts has also proved tough to give away.
Last year, an extensive effort to donate the Northfield campus by the billionaire family that owned it collapsed when the recipient unexpectedly backed out.
Its current owner, the National Christian Foundation, says it has narrowed its search down to five potential recipients as they consider suitors that aren't exclusively Christian, dropping a condition of the prior search.
The top two or three candidates could be announced within a month and definitely will be by Christmas, said Aimee Minnich, president of the foundation's Heartland office in Kansas.
Meanwhile, residents and business owners in the town of about 3,000 are ready to see new life at a campus that has been vacant for eight years, leaving a hole in the town's social and economic life. Joan Stoia, co-owner of The Centennial House bed and breakfast on Main Street, said residents have learned to be patient.
"Quick doesn't happen with this kind of decision, and that's what we're all learning," she said.
"What can we say?" she said. "We can't make it any faster than it is. (The campus is) not ours; we don't control it. So we're here to be helpful in any way possible."
The campus is the former home of the Northfield Mount Hermon school, which was founded by 19th-century evangelist D.L. Moody.
The school moved out in 2005 to consolidate at another campus, but the property is still heavy with the aura of the exclusive New England prep school it once hosted. Its 43 buildings fill a rich, rolling stretch of the Connecticut River Valley with a stately mix of granite and brick.
The campus' religious history lingers, as well. At Moody's hilltop grave, pilgrims meet to join hands and pray.
The Green family, which founded and owns the Oklahoma-based Hobby Lobby craft store chain, bought the campus in 2009 intending to give it to a new college named after Christian apologist and writer C.S. Lewis.
That venture stalled, and the Greens offered it for free to candidates with traditional Christian beliefs and a commitment to honoring Moody's legacy.
Grand Canyon University, a for-profit Christian school in Phoenix, was announced as the recipient last fall and planned eventually to house 5,000 students there. But it backed out weeks later, citing tens of millions of dollars in unanticipated building and infrastructure costs.
In December, the Greens gave the campus, and the job of finding a qualified owner, to the National Christian Foundation. The foundation had handled donated property from the Greens before.
The foundation's main work is to help business owners fund charitable work worldwide, and Minnich said its contacts with businesses and nonprofits enabled it to cast a broad net for potential suitors. It tells each candidate that faith-based groups will be preferred, but it isn't excluding secular groups.
"Secular organizations would be fine, but nothing opposed to what we stand for as an organization," Minnich said. "I can't think of very many things that we would not consider."
Minnich won't yet identify the remaining candidates or be specific about their plans. In general, she said, they include established and startup colleges, and collaborations that could combine various enterprises on campus, such as a museum or a retirement home.
One of first things the foundation vets is whether candidates know free campuses can be expensive to run, to avoid any sticker shock.
"People who are scared away by the size and scope of the campus are probably not going to be great candidates," Minnich said.
There has been considerable surprise from candidates who take a tour that the "free" in free campus doesn't actually mean "run-down," Minnich said. "People have been pleasantly surprised by what's here."
Northfield resident Alexander Stewart said the National Christian Foundation has impressed townspeople with its commitment to getting things right. The future of the campus is critical for Northfield, he said, but he added that he's confident whatever finally comes will be good for the area.
"It's a quiet town, waiting with considerable hope and not with a great deal of anxiety," Stewart said.

It can be tempting on a cold day to start up your car, then run into the house to stay comfortable while the car warms up.
It's also illegal.
In the state of Washington, RCW 46.61.600 explicitly states the engine must be off and the key out of the ignition before a motor vehicle can be left unattended. The law is to prevent cars from being stolen or from driving off by themselves.
There have been quite a few cases in recent weeks of cars being stolen while left running and unattended. During the coldest days of the year, it's a scourge in this area.
People who thoughtfully warm up their vehicles for thieves suffer the difficulties of having to find a different mode of transportation and also manage to annoy police. It seems a bit much to ask officers to help people who were breaking the law by leaving their car unattended.
There are a couple of solutions to the problem. The most obvious is to just stay with your car while it's warming up. It may be cold, but how much worse will it go for you if the car is stolen?
The next is getting a remote starter. A properly installed starter will heat up the engine and the interior of the car while preventing theft. Most remote starters prevent a car from moving and keep the vehicle secure at the same time.
Remote start systems can cost a couple of hundred dollars or more. This is cheap, if the alternative is losing your car to theft or getting a ticket for leaving it unattended.
A garage is also a nice thing to have for a car. It prevents icy build-up on the windows, making it easier and safer to get going in the morning.
Whatever the solution, the problem is clear. Don't leave your vehicle unattended while warming up. You can lose your car to thieves or be fined by police. Either way, you aren't going to like it.

enjoy your grindFriday, January 09, 2009
I have been wanting to get to this space all week. But to tell you the truth, I don't have much to say. I've just been busy doing what I do. Finding room for everything new. Trying to get rid of a bunch of old.......without anyone noticing. I've been baking cookies and blaring music. Cleaning closets and doing laundry. Playing referee, psychologist and chauffeur. Making meals and making coffee. The daily grind is all good.

I didn't realize how important this lotion was for me until I ran out! My work (chiropractor) bought me biotones dual purpose massage crème, and after the first 5 minutes of use I felt like I should apologize to my clients for the UNworkability of that crème. First thing I did when I got home was order another gallon of Cocoa-Comfort lotion. It hydrates the skin so there is no uncomfortable friction, yet it allows me to maintain a grip of the skin and work on specific muscles, whereas the crème made me slip right off of it. I rarely have to reapply and best of all my CLIENTS LOVE IT. I even use it as my personal lotion, im pretty fair skinned and after putting this lotion on and going outside it even makes me look tanner. You can put it on in the morning, and feel the hydration still at the end of the day. WITHOUT that greasy feeling. THIS IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST LOTION AVAILABLE
I tried this product, and I thought it would have a nice long glide, and didn't think i would have to apply more.. but I did... and it soaks right into the skin fast. So had to reapply more to finish the massage. But the fragrance was very pleasant.
I love this lotion. The glide is great. The scent is not strong but also relaxing. This will be a mainstay in my practice.
Thank you for asking our opinions. I love giving happy news! This is the most fantastic lotion ever. I have not completely figured out if ALL the ingredients are totally awesome and pure yet... I'd love to know more about that. My clients LOVE it as do I. They often want some to use on their skin as their daily salve! I have used it like this often, and on my face, even though I am not sure about ALL the ingredients. Having founded three schools of massage therapy in California and had my own practice in massage, or worked in many environments, I have trained and massaged literally thousands and thousands of people using many brands of oils and this Biotone Cocoa Comfort Lotion, even out of all your own products is my favorite and everyone else I use it on. It warms up easily. It's none greasy. It has staying power. Unless someone is terribly dehydrated it lasts a long time! I wish once in a while you could get a big discount like for every three times you order a gallon, or a little something! And... I think you would do well to give some 4 oz plastic bottles with squeeze top with the gallons as a token for those who place a second order so they could sell it to clients as their personal cream since THEY like it so much and ask me where THEY can get it.... OR for us to give away and or share with other therapist friends.
I hope I get a 5 Star Review for my over-the-top fan review too! LOL Um... do you give discounts if I want to take a bath in it too?
I wanted to try this product as a substitute for the sweet almond oil I use regularly for clients who don't like oil. I find that the workability is not quite what I would like it to be. The Biotone Nutri Naturals cream and lotion have better workability. Just don't like the smell of NN so much.

My Samsung Q3 Preview
Here are my first impressions on the new Samsung Q3.
It's a sample with a beta firmware but well, close to the final version
Slideshow: http://www.flickr.com/photos/generat...93017921/show/
New design that makes me remind the Z5. Better finish than the Q2 with an aluminium frame. 2 colors available: black and pink.
A good point for the microUSB connector.
The Q3 doesn't have a touch pad like the Q1 and Q3 but tactile buttons! I assume you prefer that like me
The screen is the same than on the Q2: a LCD 2,2" 320*240. It's quite beautiful but not big enough for video playback.
There is a new matrix menu (I forgot to take a picture of it sorry) and there are different menus availables.
The whole interface comes from the R0. It's almost the same.
Now you can choose the function of the user button. That's better than when you don't have the choice (Q2, R0)
The now playing screen is exactly the same as on the R0. And it supports the same audio codecs (MP3 / WMA / OGG / FLAC / AAC)
What's new then? The SoundAlive engine of course! They are completely different from the DNSe 3.0 so that's a bit discouncerting. No more rock, r&b, jazz, classical but voice, instrument, tweeter, big bass, café, concert instead. Fortunately the User SoundAlive is the same than the user DNSe: EQ, 3D & Bass, Concert, Clarity et Audio Upscaler.
I was not able to test the sound quality (I had only Creative EP630 with me and the environnement was noisy).
Other features
The Q3 can play videos without any reconversion (up to 720*480) contrary to the Q2. Of course it can display pictures and text files. There is also a RDS FM tuner and a voice recorder (contrary to the R0)
This new Q3 looks great and much more interesting than the Q2. Unfortunately there is no gapless playback (but I still try to convince Samsung to implement this feature on the next models, I'll never give up^^) and it will only be available in 4 and 8GB in France. The 16GB version won't be sold in France. But that depends on the country. It will be available in Octobre in France (and in 2012 in the USA ahaha )
Announced battery life is: 45hrs in audio and 6h in video playback.
Q3 vs R0 (sorry, I did not have a Q2 with me)
I'm French^^ *GenerationMP3 Samsung Moderator*

Officials: Victim of Salem fire owned home
SALEM, Mass. (AP) — Salem fire officials have released the name of a man who died in a two-alarm fire at a city home over the weekend.
Capt. Alan Dionne says 53-year-old Michael Lyness owned the three-story Beacon Street home and lived in the second floor unit.
Lyness died at the scene of the fire reported at about 3:30 a.m. Sunday.
Dionne tells The Salem News (http://bit.ly/10ge2jh ) that crews were immediately notified that a man was still in the building and entered the second floor under heavy smoke and fire to conduct a search. Lyness was found dead in the room where the fire is believed to have started.
There were no working fire alarms on the second floor of the home.
A tenant on the first floor escaped.

Dawson Park and Bridge Trail is a 2.3 kilometer moderately trafficked loop trail located near Edmonton, Alberta, Canada that features a river and is good for all skill levels. The trail offers a number of activity options and is best used from March until October. Dogs are also able to use this trail.
dog friendly
kid friendly
nature trips
trail running
wild flowers
Dawson Park is situated between Kinnaird Ravine and the community of Riverdale. Like its neighbours, it shares a long history of industry and coal mining dating back to the turn of the 19th century. The Dawson Mine was situated across the river where the current Riverside Golf Course parking lot is. The mine was the driving reason for building the Dawson Bridge in 1911. The bridge was built to help facilitate the movement of workers and coal. This area was popular with residents and industry at the turn of the century as it had a lumbermill, a brickworks and a coal mine nearby. The Dawson Mine closed in 1944. There is parking availible just off of 90th Street and this is a dog friendly area with both on and off leash areas. There is a pavilion availible for rental and many places for a rest or to have lunch in this quiet setting along the river. There is major construction happening this year in the park, so some of the connecting trails to Kinnaird Ravine are closed off, but you can bypass these by climbing the trails up to Jasper Avenue and going back down into the ravine just past the construction area. Dawson Park is also the home to the Edmonton Dragon Boat Racing Club. They have their clubhouse and docks in Dawson Park. By heading up to the bridge deck, you will be treated to stunning scenery of the river, downtown and the surrounding neighbourhoods. Bring a camera and don't miss out!

Eating Disorders
Mother in worry
Hello. I have a concern that maybe you can help me with. I have a 19 year old daughter 5`2 about 105-110lbs. She just recently had a baby 5 1/2 months ago as well.
I think she has a disorder. She exercises every chance she gets and says she doesn't feel good with herself unless she completes her daily routine of exercises every day, she eats little (take in mind, she is also breastfeeding) and when she does eat its normally salad, veggies, fruit, yogurt, bread, wraps, more or less " healthy food."
She will not eat anything deep-fried and she doesn't eat red meat, only chicken and turkey. She may eat a donut, candy or chocolate.... but then she exercises more. She still says she isn't thin to her liking "that it's the media's fault because now a days it's all about skinny girls" and that she doesn't want to get chubby or fat.
We have all told her we are tired of this habit and she needs to start eating properly. Is this a disorder, disease? How can we help? How can she stop and still feel good about her image? Please answer ASAP it really worries me! Thank-you so much.
Dear mother,
A vulnerable time to develop an eating disorder can be after pregnancy. As hormones and the body shift after the baby is born, and if the new mother over-diets, it can set off a reaction for other systems in the body to set one up to develop an eating disorder. It begins to show up when the person rationalizes more and more foods that should not be eaten and the range of foods becomes increasingly narrow while exercise and reasons to keep moving increase. Thoughts become so focused on foods and body shape that it becomes a frustration to others around. The person never seems to feel there is enough exercise and obsessive thoughts increase.
Your daughter's weight is in a healthy range per your listing above, but if it decreases, then the excessive dieting can trigger the biological markers to begin a slippery and dangerous path.
If in doubt, it would be worth having your daughter receive a one-time assessment at a specialized eating disorder clinic. The links below may help you locate a center near you.

Morris Conferencing is a FREE, established, independent venue finder. We help organisations of all sizes find the perfect conference, meeting and event venues. We are unbiased and will also give you free expert advice on the best way to plan your event.
Budget conference venues in the UK and Europe are a real bonus to those organisations and companies planning a low budget event, so much can be achieved with surprisingly little money and here at Morris we know all the options.
The variety of conference venues in the UK that can be booked for large and small events is impressive. Budget venues in London can be harder to find than in the regions, but we have all possible locations covered. You can speak to one of our experts, who can help you with selecting the most suitable venue for your event.
Budget conference venues and event spaces can be used in so many different ways, for large dinners, exhibition space, training and religious gatherings and reunions. Most budget venues will have parking on site or nearby and are often free or charged at a reduced rate for delegates.
As the squeeze on public finance takes hold, government agencies are looking for functional meeting spaces with a keen eye on costs, and our team at Morris Conferencing know the best places for your budget!
Budget venues in London are useful for those event organisers who do not have the larger funds of some of the corporate conference organisers. Often the budget London venues will have a useful selection of meeting rooms and event spaces with catering facilities to match. Many of the budget conference venues in London are run by local businesses, which have spotted a gap in the market for a low cost alternative to some of the big brand venues.
The variety of budget conference venues in London makes the venue selection process both exciting and challenging. Some venues do require conference organisers to think 'outside the box', which some conference professionals revel in and others shy away from. In these unpredictable economic times, the rise and rise of budget conference venues keeps a free venue finding service such as Morris Conferencing on its toes.
The budget conference hotels are looking to fill any gaps in their diaries and at certain times of the week, particularly weekends where some amazing deals can be had. Weekend events often suit associations and religious groups, who might have a strong networking and social aspect to their event. If your delegates really do not want to be at a conference at a weekend, it can just be a case of looking at a quiet month or time of the year such as school holiday periods, to secure a true conference bargain.
We pride ourselves on being able to find the right venue for our clients within their allocated budget, and we know the places to use that can provide and excellent service but won't cost the earth! Why not give us a call on 0843 289 7787 or email firstname.lastname@example.com to see what we can source event.

Quarter-cent sales tax hike would garner $4.7 million, centralize all county offices under one roof
The Randolph County Commission, late Thursday morning (Jan. 23), officially announced plans to seek a tax-increasing ballot measure in April for the construction of a new county administrative building in Huntsville.
"The commission does not take this request lightly," said Randolph County Presiding Commissioner Susan Carter. "But, at the same time, as our county buildings continue to age, as maintenance and utility costs continue to rise, as security for county personnel and the public becomes more of a challenge and lack of storage becomes more of an issue, we feel the situation has become serious enough that we must act."
The measure, which is anticipated to appear on the April 8 municipal election ballot, calls for a quarter-cent sales tax increase county-wide, and is expected to garner approximately $4.7 million "for construction of the new building as well as renovations and improvements to the existing Justice Center building," per the county. The measure requires a simple majority for passage. The sales tax increase will sunset in 12 years, or after the final payment for the financing for the project is made — whichever item comes first.
Moberly's current sales tax rate runs at 8.225 percent, meaning the quarter-cent addition would drive such up to 8.475 percent.
The commission pointed out, though, that sales tax rates in Columbia, Hannibal, and Mexico are all at 8.6 percent — still 0.125 percent higher.
The commission also noted in a release Thursday that the county currently operates out of four buildings in two cities (Huntsville and Moberly), and that, as part of their proposed plans, the administration building project "would consolidate all county operations to one location in Huntsville at the Justice Center site."
"If passed this April, the consolidation could be completed by 2016," Carter said.
"We believe by taking this step we will see future savings in maintenance costs and utility costs," added Eastern District Commissioner Wayne Wilcox. "Operations on one campus will make better use of our county personnel and provide much needed security for our employees, court personnel and the public. It's just a better way to do business."
Western District Commissioner Jerry Crutchfield noted that historically low interest rates and construction costs were also a driving factor in bringing the item to vote at this time.
"We feel if there is ever a time to take on this project, it is now because we are seeing interest costs and building costs beginning to go up every day," he said.
A host of public meetings are in the works regarding the measure, to gather comment and discuss the details of the building plan. The dates for such have yet to be announced.

"At AzaWhistle Kids we understand the connection between having a clean, organized space and leading happy, healthy lives."
Tidying up is one of the first life challenges for kids, and it's oftentimes an even bigger challenge for parents. Kids are naturally drawn to helping mom and dad but no one likes to hear the dreaded "Go clean your room." It's an alienating order, an age-old command, and when it's given with little or no guidance kids can become easily overwhelmed and will underperform. To help kids and parents get their "tidy" on we founded cleaning superheroes Lollipop and Tejas. These animated cleaning warriors teach young children how to organize and tidy their living space, imparting a host of other useful tips. When these lessons are taught early on children grow to become life-long proponents of healthy and clean living.

Artist Statement
"Thus the life of the collector manifests a dialectical tension between the poles of disorder and order." , Walter Benjamin
My series of satellite prints is a collection of collections, in that each print houses a selection of things cut out from Google Satellite View , whether that be swimming pools, parking lots or sections of the Great Salt Lake. Though geographically they represent a vast (and fragmented) amount of landscape, the collections carry with them the feelings of smallness, vulnerability and nostalgia that I find inherent in satellite imagery. These prints are, on the one hand, collapsed pictures of my own disoriented wanderings through the endlessness of a scanned world , endlessly scrolling, endlessly zooming in. But they are also, as in any collection, acts of love. In accumulating, cutting out and ordering each piece of satellite imagery, I have fixed them here against the perpetual tide of updated satellite pictures and the ephemerality of the internet.

McNeese St. 27, Middle Tennessee 21
Cody Stroud recorded two touchdowns and McNeese State racked up
298 rushing yards as the Cowboys defeated Middle Tennessee 27-21 on
the road Thursday night.
Marcus Wiltz led the ground attack with 105 yards on 20 carries
for McNeese State (1-0), which recorded its first win against an
FBS school since 2001.
Middle Tennessee (0-1) opened up a 6-0 lead behind field goals
from Carlos Lopez.
However, Tyler Bolfing, who entered the game after Stroud was
sidelined briefly following a quarterback sneak, connected with
Josh Jordan from 2-yards out to tie the game at 6-6.
Stroud returned late in the second quarter to lead McNeese State
on an 87-yard scoring drive before halftime and his 1-yard rushing
touchdown gave the Cowboys a 23-6 lead late in the third
Logan Kilgore's two second half touchdown's help cut the deficit
to 27-21 but the Blue Raiders could not complete the rally.

Drug information provided by: Micromedex
The fentanyl skin patch (transdermal) is used to treat severe pain, including acute pain following surgery. Ionsys® is applied in a hospital setting after surgery for the short-term management of acute pain. Duragesic® is used for severe chronic pain when around-the-clock pain relief is needed for a long period of time. Fentanyl is a strong narcotic analgesic (pain medicine). It acts on the central nervous system (CNS) to relieve pain.
The Duragesic® skin patch should not be used if you need pain medicine for just a short time, such as after dental surgery or tonsil surgery. Do not use the patch for mild pain or pain that occurs only once in a while.
The Ionsys® skin patch is applied by your healthcare provider to the upper outer arm or chest in the hospital.
When a narcotic medicine is used for a long time, it may become habit-forming, causing mental or physical dependence. However, people who have continuing pain should not let the fear of dependence keep them from using narcotics if needed. Mental dependence (addiction) is not likely to occur when narcotics are used for this purpose. Physical dependence may lead to withdrawal side effects if treatment is stopped suddenly, but the adverse effects can usually be prevented by gradually reducing the dose.
This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.

Olympic champion Brazil will get to defend its women's volleyball title in London after beating Peru 25-12, 25-16, 25-9 in the final of the South American qualifying tournament on Sunday.
Only the winner of the seven-team tournament was going to secure a trip to London, and Brazil needed 65 minutes to earn its berth in the final in the interior city of Sao Carlos.
Brazil had failed to grab one of the three spots in the World Cup in Japan last year, which were secured by Italy, the United States and China. Algeria, Turkey, the Dominican Republic and host Great Britain also have already qualified.
An international qualifying tournament next week will determine the final teams to be playing in the women's tournament in London.

DOE A to Z: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
For Immediate Release: February 6, 2009
Revised Core Curriculum Content Standards Posted for Public Review
Citing the vital importance of the 21st century skills necessary to better prepare students for success in the global economy, Education Commissioner Lucille E. Davy today announced that proposed revisions to the state's Core Curriculum Content Standards (CCCS) are now available for public review and comment.
The nine CCCS, which outline what students should know and be able to do at grade levels, must be revised every five years by the State Department of Education and adopted by the State Board of Education to ensure they remain current and contain the academic rigor appropriate for preschool through grade 12.
Their release begins a 60-day period for public review and comment. The public will be able to provide feedback through an online evaluation tool and during several standards review sessions that will be conducted throughout the state in February.
The revised standards are designed to infuse real-world skills into the state's existing curriculum models in the nine content areas – Language Arts Literacy, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, World Languages, Technological Literacy, Visual and Performing Arts, Comprehensive Health and Physical Education, Career Education and Consumer, Family and Life Skills – and to implement many instructional elements of DOE's high school transformation effort.
"All New Jersey children deserve the opportunity to enter the workforce or college already equipped with the knowledge and skills they need to thrive," said Commissioner Davy. "The release of the 2009 curriculum revisions brings New Jersey one step closer to ensuring that students are prepared better for the world that awaits them after high school."
Major CCCS changes proposed this year include:
Once finalized and published, the new CCCS will be accompanied by classroom application documents to help teachers make the new standards come alive in the classroom and integrate the targeted skills across content areas. The application documents also will provide examples of how to use project-based learning to give students a broader understanding of the skills and concepts being taught.
"For example, imagine the learning that could take place if students are empowered to use technology to contact their peers across the globe for a long-term project examining the lack of clean drinking water in many countries," said Commissioner Davy. "It not only would be a lesson in math and science, but students would learn how to communicate with people from other cultures – a skill set they most certainly will need as working adults in a global economy.
"New Jersey's business community expects high school graduates who possess the communication, problem-solving and technology skills necessary to help their companies prosper and grow in a competitive economy," the Commissioner said. "Infusing 21st century skills into existing curriculum standards is the cornerstone to transforming New Jersey's high schools into institutions that better prepare students to meet real-world expectations."
The revised standards are available on DOE's Web site at www.state.nj.us/education/aps.
Educators and others interested in attending any one of the three- hour standards review sessions can register online at https://homeroom5.doe.state.nj.us/events/. Registrants can choose to attend a morning session from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. or an afternoon session from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on the following dates at the following locations:
Wednesday, February 11, at Middlesex County College in Edison
Friday, February 13, at Richard Stockton College of New Jersey in Pomona
Friday, February 20, at New Jersey City University in Jersey City
Tuesday, February 24, at NJPSA/FEA Headquarters in Monroe Township (Mercer County)

Malaga midifelder Isco has admitted that he would welcome a move to a bigger club if it helped his current employers in their battle with financial problems.
The former Valencia man has been linked with a move to Premier League outfits Chelsea and Manchester City, and while Isco is committed to his role at La Rosaleda, he would consider a move elsewhere.
"I'm not worried as I'm only thinking about being here," the 20-year-old told AS.
"If a team does come to pay a lot of money for me, it will definitely be a big club. Then, if it helps Malaga, I would have no problem in leaving if it was good for both of us."
Isco went on to praise his club coach Manuel Pellegrini for the impact he had on his career and Spain boss Vincente del Bosque, who handed him his first cap for his country earlier this month.
"Pellegrini has been the most important person. I arrived here at 19 years of age, as an unknown, and he began to put me in game by game. He put all his confidence in me.
"[Del Bosque] is a very level-headed and calm person, he surprised me quite a bit. He gave me confidence and calmness."
Elsewhere, Porto's Fernando, who will meet the Spanish side with his team on Tuesday for the first leg of their Champions League final-16 encounter, spoke highly of his midfield counterpart.
"I know Isco is a fantastic player, certainly one of the best among other very good players from Malaga," the 25-year-old told reporters.
"But we wont give him any special attention, because it's the whole team that's important. They're very strong as a team."

Travis N needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 747 designs submitted by 156 freelance designers.
We are a dietary supplement company with a focus on the nervous system. Serotune is a dietary supplement that contains essential amino acids to increase serotonin and dopamine levels in the brain. Serotonin and dopamine are neurotransmitters responsible for feelings of well being, confidence, happiness, affection, and contentment. When dopamine and serotonin levels are low, individuals often experience mild depression, poor motivation, and a lack of emotions. In many cases serotonin and dopamine deficiency are caused by lack of sleep, prolonged stress, and the consumption of excess alcohol or drugs.
Our company name "Biocursor" (not the name to be used in the logo) is a play on biology, amino acids and how they act as precursors to neurotransmitters. Serotune is a blend of several neurotransmitter precursors that bypass the blood brain barrier and are synthesized into serotonin and dopamine.
"Serotune" is the brand we need a logo for. It will be used on our website and product labels.
Serotune is targeted directly to consumers.
Active individuals that take a proactive stance toward their mental and physical health. 30-50 years old, our customers often need help dealing with stress and sleep deprivation.
Individuals suffering from major forms of depression or other mental ailments are not part of our target market.
Our product is consumed by people that are suffering from mild depression. People in this state are looking for relief and we want an image that they associate with this relief. Specifically we're trying to associate our product with two ideals: Contentment and Nature.
Contentment: Depression is not just sadness, but a lack of contentment that leads to irritability, lack of sleep, and emotional discomfort. An image for serotune could emote a feeling of relaxation, confidence, and peace.
Nature: Serotune is made of natural substances that we consume every day (but probably not in enough quantity)
The second trend I would like to influence is the use of letters in a logo. While we don't want to exclude this practice, it should be done in a way that draws a connection between the ideals we mention above with our brand name.
Image: Minimal, Modern, Natural, Healthy, Well Being, Contentment
