Raindrops, hugs & kisses, and stabs in the back
Though I'd prefer you stab me in the front, because pretending to care is ten times worse
I can't offer you logical proofs, but I can give you my whole-y heart
Normally I wouldn't write something so cliche', but lately I've been reading about vulnerability
Taking me back to my days in the city that I barely remember
Things were less hopeful then (which is ironic, because I was surrounded by a mutilated corpse)
With its last few breaths it promised to stab me in the front
And in the back it went
So tell me – was it time well spent?
That's okay, though, really – I expected as much from the Body of Christ
"Forgive me if that's blasphemous"
There I go again practicing pretentious piety!
I'm just as much a false prophet as you!
This poem isn't looking very much like a poem
So let me mix it up a bit
But what is a poem?
(Define: "poem.")
Ponies were riding down the escalator racing to find meaning
Highlighting all the houses that stood out among their blinders
Feeding in the ones with no complexity – reveling in complicity
Oh structure, dear structure, do you exist?
Only if there's a foundation to rest your twisted neck
There we go, a real poem
I may be skeptical of authority, but I'm not Postmodern!
Who's Authority, anyway?
I don't have a name, silly.

One big family
Lantmännen is an agricultural cooperative founded on the deep knowledge our farmers have aquired over generations. We make farming thrive and work together to take responsibility from field to fork.
Lantmännen is an agricultural cooperative and Northern Europe's leader in agriculture, machinery, bioenergy and food products.
The Agriculture Sector constitutes Lantmännen's core business and offers products and services to promote strong, competitive farming.
Imports, markets and sells agricultural machinery, spare parts and services.
The Energy Sector is Sweden's largest producer of bioenergy products.
The Food Sector develops, processes and markets products that include flour, breakfast foods, pasta, frozen and fresh bread, crispbread and ready-to-eat meals.
Lantmännen is an agricultural cooperative founded on the deep knowledge our farmers have aquired over generations. We make farming thrive and work together to take responsibility from field to fork.
From our core farming business, through the value chain, from field to fork, we are involved in every step from sowing to harvesting; to the food on our tables, feed for our livestock and climate –smart biofuels.
Owned by Swedish farmers, Sweden is our base with the Baltic Sea area as our expanded domestic market. We have a strong international presence, and no matter which country and location we operate in, we always take the same responsibility.
We pursue research and invest in innovation for tomorrow's agriculture, bioenergy and foods of the future. Innovations are crucial if we are to resolve the challenges of today and tomorrow, which is why Lantmännen also has its own research foundation.
You´ll find the Lantmännen sprout on our packaging. The products may be different, but everyone can feel safe that we also minimise impact on climate and people. If you find the sprout on a packet, you can be sure what's inside is Good Food from Lantmännen.
In an innovative We Effect project supported by Lantmännen, 15 000 children in Malawi are now receiving school meals produced by local farmers. By educating farmers in sustainable agriculture, We Effect has helped them increase their harvests. The result is a surplus that the farmers sell to UN's World Food Programme (WFP) and then distributed to nearby schools. The project is part of Lantmännen's mission to secure food supply and make farming thrive – today and tomorrow. Photo: We Effect
In Malawi, out of a population of 16 million 90 percent are farmers - an occupation that has become increasingly tough in the past years due to climate change. The maize harvest, the country's vital staple food, has decreased by 30 percent compared to last year, resulting in the Malawian government recently announcing a warning that at least three million people are at risk of facing acute food shortage.
In light of this challenge, We Effect – a Swedish non-governmental organization working with long-term aid projects in 25 countries – has implemented a new school meal program in the country. The project is run with support from Lantmännen, in collaboration with the Malawian government and the United Nation's World Food Program, WFP.
Lantmännen is a member of and has contributed financially annually to We Effect since 2003, but this year we decided to take our involvement even further by supporting the pilot project in Malawi. Helping to build sustainable agriculture is one of our main goals Anna Carlström, Head of owner relations at Lantmännen.
The farmers included in the project receive training from We Effect and get paid to deliver crops that are served for lunch at ten schools around the country. A total of 15,000 students now receive lunch every day at school, something that is very rare in Malawi. Mercy Kasokoneza, a 26 year old farmer with a three hectares of land outside the town Mangochi, has participated in the project with positive outcome – both for her personally and for the local community.
"Our harvests have increased in the last couple of years and we have afforded to build a new house and buy chickens and goats. Before, we burned or removed the crop residues that remained on the ground after the harvest, which was very time-consuming. Now, we leave on the field which is better for the soil. I can focus more on developing my farming now", says Mercy Kasokoneza, whose daughter is one of the children that receive school meals every day.
Lantmännen continuously seeks new ways to add value in the entire chain from field to fork – and is therefore proud to contribute to this self-help project allowing farmers to further develop their farming and bring their produce to the market.

We've been removing downed trees and rocks from the trail already this Spring. We held a successful Trail work morning on May 1 and removed rocks and raked the parking lot expansion at "OO". This area has been seeded and will soon become a play and recreation area for use mid-summer and fall, and then function as parking after the ground freezes this winter.
Planned and proposed trail projects include:
Some of the projects are contingent on funding and the Birkie budget process that we are now going through. Trail maintenance now costs us about $130,000 annually. You may be aware that a portion of our trail expenses are covered by the ski trail fees and donations, which we greatly appreciate.
The Birkie Trail Friends program also helps us significantly. You, your family or a group of your friends can get together and sponsor a kilometer on the trail system. Birkie Trail Friends have already sponsored many Birkie and Birkie Classic Trail kilometers, but several Ks still need sponsors. More information about becoming a Birkie Trail Friend is available here. The American Birkebeiner Ski Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization and donations are tax deductible, so please consider helping.

Annals of the Former WorldBy: McPhee, John
Price: $22.00
The Pulitzer Prize-winning view of the continent, across the fortieth parallel and down through 4.6 billion years
Twenty years ago, when John McPhee? began his journeys back and forth across the United States, he planned to describe a cross section of North America at about the fortieth parallel and, in the process, come to an understanding not only of the science but of the style of the geologists he traveled with. The structure of the book never changed, but its breadth caused him to complete it in stages, under the overall title Annals of the Former World.
Like the terrain it covers, Annals of the Former World tells a multilayered tale, and the reader may choose one of many paths through it. As clearly and succinctly written as it is profoundly informed, this is our finest popular survey of geology and a masterpiece of modern nonfiction.
"Tripling as a geology primer, an autobiography and a panorama of the nation, bejeweled with splendid vignettes and set-pieces, "Annals of the Former World" offers a view of America like no other. It is the outpouring of a master stylist. Yield to its geopoetry and have your eyes opened to a barely known aspect of the continent." -- Roy Porter, Los Angeles Times
"The finest non-technical overview of geology ever written . . . " -- Milo Miles, The Boston Sunday Globe

Lauren Got a Fish
Lauren's been wanting a fish for some time now, so I finally gave in and bought her a fish tank. Right now we only have a Betta, but once the tank has climatized itself I'm thinking of adding a few schooling Endlers or Neon Tetras and maybe a small Otocinclus.

Cradle of Filth at the Henry Fonda
Last Wednesday we went to see Cradle of Filth at the Henry Fonda. It's always kind of surreal seeing two concerts with completely different crowds at the same venue less than a week apart. CoF put on a pretty decent show, not the best performance I've seen from them, but overall they were pretty good. All I have to say is that Dani seems to be getting old and is starting to lose his voice…

Something I really want to pass on to my children is travel. I was pretty lucky growing up that my parents took me to see a lot of the world, same with Rich, and it's always been something we have cherished. Initially when I knew I was going to fall into the 2 under 2 bracket I kissed goodbye to my holiday dreams, but as time passed I realised it won't be that way forever and after all a holiday is just "same stuff, different location" as quoted by The Unmumsy Mum. So I have started to compile a "Family Travel Bucket List", after looking at Holiday Gems Tenerife Deals, here is why I'd like to visit Tenerife!
The Beaches: Tenerife has 400m of coastline which means it has space for some pretty extraordinary beaches! I'm actually more of a poolside person that a beach person, but as a kid, I loved the beach and have some great memories there and I want that for my babies too!
Siam Park: When it comes to a water park I am down (you should have seen my upset face when I couldn't do anything last week at Center Parcs, damn pregnancy) and this one is meant to be pretty epic, Tenerife actually has a few water parks that look like they'd get your adrenaline going!
Santa Cruz de Tenerife Carnevale: With two small children I can't see us making it to Rio De Janeiro anytime soon so this seems like a reasonable dupe! This is considered to be second to Rio Carnival yet seems to fall under the radar slightly? Over the course of a week, festivals, processions and parties flood the streets of Santa Cruz with colour, feathers and glitter. I'd never heard of this carnival and knowing it's slightly more accessible being in Europe sends it straight to the top of our bucket list!
Roam San Cristóbal de la Laguna: This town was built in the 16th and 18th centuries, meaning that many of the public and private buildings have a charming colonial style to them. I've never seen a more Instagram worthy place, this colourful setting is the perfect European backdrop for any photo! Better still, the surrounding restaurants and shops allegedly have the perfect 'local charm'
Mount Teide Volcano: Have you ever seen a volcano in the flesh? No me neither! That is definitely bucket list worthy. As well as this the National Park looks pretty breath-taking.

An orchidopexy is an operation to bring a testicle down into the scrotum. The testicles develop in a baby boy's abdomen when he is in the womb. The testicles usually move down into the scrotum by 35 weeks of pregnancy. Sometimes a testicle does not come down normally (see figure 1).
Surgery should prevent your child from having serious complications. Your child's fertility should improve and he will find it easier to examine his testicles to check for any problems.
If a testicle has not reached the scrotum by the age of six months, it is unlikely to do so without surgery.
The operation is performed under a general anaesthetic and usually takes 45 minutes to an hour.
Your surgeon will usually perform the operation through a cut on the groin and a small cut on the scrotum. They will free up the testicle and bring it down into the scrotum.
If your surgeon finds a small testicle that is unlikely to function, they will usually remove it.
Your child should be able to go home the same day.
It is usual for children to return to school after about a week.
Your child should not play sports or ride a bicycle for six weeks.

Stocks managed the slightest of gains in their first trading session of June. On Wednesday the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES:^DJI) rose by just two points to remain essentially unchanged. The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX:^GSPC) added two points as well, for a 0.1% uptick:
As for individual stocks, Under Armour (NYSE:UAA) and Michael Kors (NYSE:CPRI) each made notable moves on heavy trading volume after announcing important financial news. Here's what drove the unusually large price swings:
Under Armour's downgraded outlook
Under Armour fell 4% on twice its normal trading volume after the retailer dialed back its 2016 sales growth outlook. Revenue gains are now expected to come in at 24%, or about $4.9 billion, rather than the 26% improvement to $5 billion that it projected in late April.
The downshift is entirely due to the impending bankruptcy of Sports Authority, which is a large wholesale customer of Under Armour's. A recent bankruptcy court ruling has resulted in that retailer's liquidation, which means that Under Armour will not be paid for about $140 million of sales it made to Sports Authority. The apparel giant also loses a fairly large customer going forward, since Sports Authority will no longer be doing businesses. Finally, UA has to take a hefty impairment charge that will pinch profits to the tune of at least $50 million this year.
Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank noted that the loss has no impact on management's focus and is not indicative of a slowing growth profile. "While the Sports Authority's bankruptcy impacts our 2016 outlook, our brand's momentum is stronger than ever as we continue to see growth and increased demand," he said in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing.
It's true that Under Armour's 2016 profit growth will be hurt by this bankruptcy, but the loss does nothing to threaten its expansion into new product categories like footwear and new geographies like China. Instead, the loss of this wholesale customer is a one-time event that will have no influence on the company's long-term growth pace .
Michael Kors' return to growth
Michael Kors was the best-performing stock on the S&P 500, rising 7% after posting surprisingly strong quarterly results. The luxury retailer's comparable-store sales rose by a meager 0.3% in fiscal Q4, but that was still an improvement over the prior quarter's 1% drop. Overall revenue rose 10.9% to $1.2 billion, which was just ahead of consensus estimates.
Gross profit margin slipped to 58% of sales but increased slightly after accounting for foreign currency swings. Altogether, the operations held up better than many investors feared, given the 20% drop in the stock in the month leading into Wednesday's release.
Looking ahead, the retailer isn't expecting strong growth for its new fiscal year. Comps are projected to decline by more than 3% and expenses will spike thanks to its just-completed acquisition of its Chinese licensee. Yet several encouraging initiatives, including a growing e-commerce business, promising men's product lines, and well-received marketing campaign, are giving management increasing confidence that a sturdier long-term rebound is in the cards.
Investments in these areas "will pay meaningful dividends for years to come," CEO John Idol said in a press release, and they've already started to move the needle toward at least minor comps growth. That brightening outlook was enough to send shares of this beaten-down retailer higher, but they remain about 50% below the all-time highs they set two years ago.

Thanks to the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Federal Housing Administration (FHA), you can now obtain a home loan from a private lender much more easily. With the benefits that HUD FHA-backed loans offer, you should now consider making the transition from a tenant to a homeowner.
Why go HUD FHA instead of conventional?
The primary reason many home buyers in the country opt for loans backed by the FHA is because they can rest easy knowing that, in the event they default on their loan, the administration will take responsibility for repaying the lender. Bonneville Multifamily Capital points out because the government insures these loans, lenders are at less risk of losing money from defaulting borrowers.
The results? Lower loan interest rates as compared to conventional mortgages, which then give you a greater opportunity of home ownership.
The down payment advantage
Another advantage of securing an FHA-insured loan from the HUD is a smaller down payment requirement. Since you do not have to make the usual 20 percent down payment that most private lenders require, you will find it easier to buy a home and afford paying for your mortgage.
Satisfy the requirements set by the HUD for their FHA loans, and you would only need to come up with a minimal 3.5 percent down payment.
Less worries about closing costs
Most traditional lenders charge borrowers closing costs, further taking mortgage payments higher and making it even more difficult for home buyers to secure a loan. Although FHA loans still come with closing costs, they are far lower than traditional loans. Through an FHA-backed loan, your HUD multifamily lender may only charge you up to one percent of the amount you borrow.
You still need to meet certain requirements and qualifications when applying for an FHA loan, but these are far easier to satisfy and complete compared with conventional loans.

You may have already tried finding a solar panel company yourself, and have found it really quite of a chore to do. So how does one actually begin? Of course there are some solutions somewhere, and maybe even this article can be of help for you.
You have to be aware that there are actually some stores that sell a few electronic parts of a solar panel, but one will always have to remember to not fully trust these stores since their products might not work well for you, and the best thing to do is to basically just find a legit company that makes solar panels.
One must remember to consider other choices and solutions so as to ensure himself of acquiring the best solar panel that he or she can acquire. So how do we really seek for a solar company that can legitimately help us with our solar energy needs?
The Essentials of Resources – The Basics
The very first place that you will have to look for is the manufacturers'. You can also find a great list of manufacturers from sources like the yellow pages.
What I Can Teach You About Panels
You can opt to decide on a few more options. You may also browse on some home improvement magazines for you to have some list. You have to be able to take out at least a little more of your time to try to find some good deals.
You may also opt to find some sources online since the internet can be a great place to look for stuff you can acquire. Apparently, you always need to have some extra time up your sleeve for this method.
The reason why it is easier and more convenient to acquire some services from the internet is because you can save a ton of time, effort, and money, as compared to actually finding for a store physically and going there with your feet just to have questions answered.
The best option one can decide on doing is to search for solar panel sites that can easily guide you and give you some effective tips and links on where to acquire some good services and have a peek of some of the reviews made by other customers on various solar panel companies.
You can use this type of method so as to have the best advice on solar panel companies.
If you also try to find some solar energy companies that will willingly deliver their services right to your homes or to your offices, then that is already a plus on them. If you consider doing this type of advice, you may not only find a solar company that can do their job for you, but you may also find other good solar companies with great benefits to choose from.
The internet can be of great help for those people who are especially going through busy schedules throughout their days.

RED BANK, NJ - There will be a new sign greeting people around Red Bank in the near future. A blue circle surrounds the Riverside Park's welcoming arch, which frames the Navesink River beneath fair-weather clouds floating in a pretty pink sky. A musical note flanked by a soccer ball and baseball signifies just some of the activities Red Bank Park and Recreation offers to its citizens. The Red Bank Parks & Recreation Department (RBP&R) unveiled its new logo at the borough's January 25 council meeting as the Mayor and Council honored its creator (RBR) studio art major Jack Davis of Little Silver. Jack is a sophomore in RBR's Visual & Performing Arts Academy.
RBP&R Director Charlie Hoffman told the Council and audience how he was inspired by the iconic maple leaf logo in New York's Central Park and the trail logo at the Monmouth County Parks Department, stating, "I really wish we could have a logo like these." Utilizing the talent right within his town's own regional high school, Charlie Hoffman asked RBR art teacher Claudia O'Connor if she could create an art contest among the RBR Visual & Performing Art Academy's art majors to make that desire a reality.
In Mrs. O'Connor's class and with the help of her student teacher Kristen Brinkman, twenty designs were created by RBR art students, out of which seven were selected as finalists. Mr. Hoffman stated that all were exceptional, but after input from residents, students, political leadership and "anyone he could find in the street," Jack's design was hands down the favorite."
Mr. Hoffman unveiled two designs --one in color for all flyers, social media, and signs. Another in black & white will be used for sports jerseys and camp staff shirts.
Jack Davis commented on the inspiration for his design, "I was born in Red Bank and always loved riding my bike around. I always thought of the Riverside Garden's arch as the entrance to the town just above the beautiful river."
Council President Kathleen Horrigan presented Jack with a certificate signed by Mayor Pasquale Menna in appreciation for his generous contribution of time and creativity to create a symbol for the borough's Park & Recreation Department.

Hamburg school's renovation creates multi-purpose spaceby Western New York Catholic
HAMBURG — SS. Peter & Paul School recently completed its cafeteria renovation project. The space, which was originally created in the early 1950s, has been upgraded to accommodate 21st-century needs.
"We are all so very excited to have a wonderfully renovated cafeteria for the students of our school to enjoy," said Father Arthur Mattulke, pastor of SS. Peter & Paul.
"It is a true blessing to have a new multi-purpose space with air conditioning, handicap accessibility and new technology for parish and school meetings. We are very grateful for the generosity and sacrifice of our parishioners and our parent guild who have joined together to make this dream a reality."
The space will also feature a projector unit that students, faculty, staff, families and parishioners can utilize for presentations and meetings.

1. We are not above the law in any way. We must adhere to all other rules just like anyone else. Not only that, but we should be even more mindful to them as we are the staff and should act as "models" to how an RPer should be.
2. No major changes to the board should be made without consultation. Really, we can't have people just making random changes. If it's big, you should at least get the other staff member's OK.
3. No abusing your power. Being a member of the staff is a privilege, not a right. It can be something that can easily be taken away. If we feel you are abusing your powers they will be stripped from you, immediately without any warnings. If you threaten to abuse your power, you might as well have actually done it.
4. You can't accept your own applications. Face it, your human and you're going to be bias to your own bio.
5. You may not grade your own threads Much like the previous rule, you are going to be bias for or against threads that you participated in. That isn't fair to the members or yourself.
6. Necessity over-rides all the rules except the next one. If something needs to be done, and the entire staff is on vacation or something, do it. If the rest of the staff has a problem with this when they come back then so be it. This will not count as an abuse of power.
7. This topic can not be edited for any reason, unless the entire, or at least an overwhelming majority, agrees. This is to stop people from abusing that ability. This is also the only rule that does not fall into the sixth rule's jurisdiction.

'Jericho' [Circle of Dust remix] – Celldweller
The lights start flashing slowly as "Jericho" pumps over the sound system. As soon as the man stops talking, the music pumps up as Honma comes out to the entrance way. Jaime Alejandro is standing beside him with his cane in hand. He points towards the ring, and both men start walking. Honma and Alejandro ignore the fans as they march towards the ring. When they hit the ring, the short tank of a man slides into the ring and waits for his opponent.
Honma is versed in Strong Style Wrestling. If you've seen people like Tomonori Ishii and Shinsuke Nakamura, you've seen his style.
- Suplexes - Vertical suplex, stalling suplex, capture suplex, Regal-plex, snap suplex, German suplex
- Strikes - jabs, straights, various kicks, sweeps, headbutts, knees, chops Lariats of any variety
Genichiro Honma is a short and powerful man. He keeps his hair short to the scalp and a very thin beard. His tights consist of black long tights that end at the knees with a black weight belt. He looks like a very intimidating Japanese pit-bull, to be honest. Genichiro Honma always wanted to be a puroresu ever since he saw the shows on his TV. The biggest problem that he's had, is getting a teacher to take him seriously. He was always considered too short or too fat by most teachers. He happened upon a demonstration by Jaime Alejandro, one day. He saw the giant Cuban was everything the myths told him, and he approached him humbly requesting to learn from him. At first, Jaime did think the young Japanese kid was undersized. However, he saw the "toukon" in the kid. That fighting spirit. With that in mind, Jaime took the kid with him and asked for his parents permission to take the young man on an excursion. The parents agreed, and Honma was off to the Southwest to learn with Jaime. After many months of training under the relative taskmaster, Honma is being sent out into the lights to see what he's actually learned. Jaime managed to get him signed with EWA, due to his friends in the company. Now, the true test begins.

By the early 1970's the 180's had reached their thirtieth anniversaries as Coast Guard cutters. It was during this decade that the buoy tender inventory began to shrink. Appropriately enough, the first to go was Cactus, the first built. Cactus ran hard aground in 1971 and the damage was so extensive that the government decided to decommission the vessel rather than repair her. The USCG decommissioned the first of the 180's two days shy of the thirtieth anniversary of her launch. Two more 180's left active duty, albeit less traumatically and according to longstanding plans, the following year. A fourth vessel left service in 1973 and two more followed in 1975. These vessels, even Cactus, went on to second careers in the hands of foreign governments or private owners.
Only one buoy tender was decommissioned by design in the 1980's. Sagebrush left active duty in April 1988, more than forty-four years after her commissioning. It was, however, a hard decade on the 180 fleet. On 28 January 1980, Blackthorn collided with a commercial tanker in Tampa Bay, Florida. The collision holed and capsized the buoy tender and it sank quickly, killing twenty-three members of the crew. In December 1989 Mesquite grounded on a rock pinnacle jutting from the bottom of Lake Superior . The crew safely abandoned ship in lifeboats, but the vessel suffered severe damage after pounding against the rocks during winter storms. USCG planners decided to decommission Mesquite soon after the accident and a commercial salvage company scuttled her in 1990. Three of the buoy tenders became Medium Endurance cutters (WMEC) during the 1980's. These conversions entailed the removal of the buoy handling gear and reassignment to predominately LE and SAR patrol duties.
The US Coast Guard decommissioned fourteen buoy tenders in the 1990's and seven more in the early years of the next decade. In early 2002, eight of the thirty-nine 180's remained in service as USCG buoy tenders. One other 180 remained in commission as a cutter, but operated in the role of a training and support vessel. Few of the decommissioned cutters have actually been destroyed or dismantled. Instead, they can be found throughout the world. A number were transferred overseas under the Foreign Military Sales Program and serve the navies of countries friendly to the United States . Two have embarked on careers as fishing vessels. One serves as a mobile base and supply ship for a missionary group working in the Pacific. Even Cactus, first of the 180's, first wrecked, and first decommissioned, still exists. The remains of the tender built in 1941 serve as a barge in the Pacific Northwest . The 180's that have passed out of use entirely were sunk as reefs or ended their lives as targets for naval munitions tests.

Renovating and improving the 180's bought time, but it did not ameliorate a basic problem facing the service. The US Coast Guard would eventually need to replace the 180's. While a steel vessel can be kept functioning almost in perpetuity, the cost of doing so eventually reaches a point where replacement is the preferred option. The savings can be measured in monetary terms as well as improved efficiency resulting from fewer breakdowns, less frequent yard periods, and the use of more advanced technologies. By the 1990's it was time to begin the lengthy process of creating a successor for the vessels one authority called, ". . . quite possibly the most versatile and useful cutter ever built for the Coast Guard," and, ". . . clearly the most multi-mission capable ship in the Black Fleet." An initial planning and consultation period ended in January 1993 when the USCG awarded a contract to Marinette Shipbuilding for the production of a new class of seagoing buoy tenders. Marinette Shipbuilding won a second contract in June 1993 for the construction of a new class of coastal buoy tender. The new seagoing tender class took the name of the prototype vessel: Juniper. The coastal tenders became the Keeper class, each named for a well-known lighthouse keeper from the past. The Juniper class vessels measure 225 feet in length, 46 feet in beam, and are propelled by two diesel engines driving a single reduction gear and a Controllable Pitch Propeller (CPP). Marinette builds them with both a bow and stern thruster, which combined with the CPP makes for a maneuverable platform. Like the 180's, they can handle limited ice breaking duties. ew seagoing tender incorporates many advances in maritime technology that allow the tenders, though larger than their predecessors, to operate effectively with a smaller crew. Perhaps the most significant advance is the use of a dynamic positioning system (DPS) to help keep the tender on station. The DPS involves computerization of the systems that maneuver the vessel, namely propulsion and steering, combined with the latest in satellite navigation technology. This system allows the Juniper class vessels to maintain position within a 10-meter radius in 30-knot winds and 8' seas. Juniper passed from Marinette Shipbuilding to the USCG in 1996. Projections call for a total of sixteen Juniper class tenders. Keeper class tenders measure 175 feet in length and have a beam of 36 feet. They are the first USCG cutters propelled by a twin Z-Drive. This propulsion system is essentially a propeller installed within a nozzle that can rotate 360 degrees. This means thrust, in any amount manageable by the vessel's diesel engine, can be applied in any direction. The Z-Drive system, popular with many newer tugboats, combined with a bow thruster ensures the Keeper class tenders have excellent maneuverability and station-keeping qualities. Each vessel also carries dynamic positioning systems, honing the vessel's ability to hover on station even further. As of 2002 the USCG has fourteen Keeper class tenders in service. As the new seagoing and coastal tenders have entered service, the US Coast Guard has decommissioned the older 180's. At the beginning of 2002 there were nine of the old buoy tenders still in commission. They will phase out slowly and tentative plans call for Acacia to be the last in service with a decommissioning in 2006.
In 1966 Spar was assigned the mission of performing an undersea oceanographic charting expedition in the northern Atlantic. During this trip the cutter visited Newfoundland, Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Germany and Northern Ireland, logging over 17,000 miles.The cutter's home-port changed again in April 1967, to Boston, where it and CGC Cactus traded captains and crew. In March 1973, Spar was stationed at South Portland, ME. Since its arrival here, the Spar's primary duties have been the maintenance of approximately 200 aids to navigation off the coasts of Maine and New Hampshire, logistical support of lighthouses, search and rescue, and enforcement of laws and treaties.
Spar had the distinction of having set the record at Refresher Training in Little Creek, VA in 1981, for the highest marks ever achieved by an ocean-going buoy tender. In subsequent years the cutter returned from Little Creek with outstanding marks, and proudly displayed a gold "E" with three gold service stripes for eight consecutive overall excellent scores in operations and seamanship training. Spar was recognized by VADM Paul Welling, LANTAREA commander, as
"The cutter with the most gold" in the Atlantic fleet".
Spar's operational area for servicing navigational aids ran from Portsmouth, NH to West Quoddy Head on the northeastern tip of Maine, a distance of some 227 miles. Much of the year was dedicated to servicing approximately 200 floating aids and providing logistical support to several lighthouses. Some winters the ship was also tasked with breaking ice in Cape Cod Canal and Buzzards Bay in Massachusetts.

About Adidas
At age 20, athlete Adolf "Adi" Dassler set out to craft shoes that would help athletes reach their full potential and avoid injury. His timing was unfortunate: just after World War I, raw materials were scarce. Still, he managed to acquire enough canvas to construct his first pair. After only a few years, his footwear became wildly popular. In 1928, several athletes wore his shoes while competing, with one runner capturing a gold medal and setting a world record.
His real breakthrough came, however, at the 1954 World Cup championship game between Germany and Hungary—remembered in soccer lore as the Miracle of Bern. The field was a muddy swamp, and Dassler outfitted the long-shot German team with screw-in studs, and they won their country's first World Cup. The studs marked a turning point for not only for Dassler's company but also soccer teams and pristine grass fields around the world.

50 of 56 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Review of the movie before blu-ray release., August 11, 2010 The A-Team is what movies used to be and should be now: fun. We used to herald the mindless summer blockbuster back when the explosions were fire and not CG, when Bruce Willis was all you needed to make a movie great, and an excellent plot was something you only expected to find in dramas filled with stuffy British accents. Yes, the majority of film has always sucked but we didn't care because we weren't paying $12.50 to see what's being shuffled down our throats today. As indie film has taken over the mutliplexs, the only escape we have to someplace fun is through stuff with Shia Lebouf in it. Disgrace, I tell you! But not all is lost. We have people like Joe Carnahan who still know how to make a night at the movies a blast.
Now, the critics panned this movie because it's short on plot and way too loud. Dude, it's based on The A-Team. The A-Team was a show about fast and violent missions with Mr. T preferring not to fly and Hannibal loving when a plan comes together. You didn't watch The A-Team for MASH, you watched it because it was cool. And that's exactly what this movie is. Cool. It's a thrill ride from the very beginning to the very end and not a lot of movies can deliver on that promise. Some twists are predictable and you're satisfied when you see it coming. Some are not and you're satisfied because you're surprised. I don't want to spoil anything about the story but the basic plot is all you really need. This movie is a video game in that you first get the reason to want to shoot things and then all you want to know next is where to get the ammo. It's loud and shaky, as is the trend with today's action movies, but not obnoxious like that other "we were framed and now we're super mad about it. As a team because camaraderie is important" movie, The Losers. Plus Sharlto Copley and Liam Neeson are fine, fine actors and you can't go wrong with 'em.Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you?
64 of 77 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars "I LOVE IT When A Plan Comes Together!", June 21, 2010 The movie begins in Mexico, where Hannibal Smith (Liam Neeson taking the part of George Peppard) is about to get a bullet in the head for bribing (obviously) the wrong cop. B.A. Baracus (Quinton Jackson taking the part of Mr. T., complete with "PITY" and "FOOL" on his knuckles) is down the road a piece, fighting a bunch of dirtbags over his van. Face (Bradley Cooper, taking the place of Dirk Benedict) is still the ladies' man. As a matter of fact, he is wedged into several truck tires while some woman's husband is beating him in the face for boinking his wife. Hannibal and BA arrive just in time to save Face from becoming toast. Crazy-as-a-bed-bug Murdock is discovered in a hospital while they are getting BA stitched up. All 4 guys are former Rangers so they bond big time.
Murdock is still an unmatched pilot. BA still has to be medicated to fly. Hannibal still chomps a cigar. And Face is still Face. Right after they cross the border back into the USA, they get involved in trying to acquire some $100 counterfeit plates, being moved by Saddam loyalists from Bagdad, and, oh yeah, over $1 billion in cold phony bills.
Much of this 2010 movie is filmed in beautiful Vancouver, Canada. It's about 2 hours of action and comedy. Steven Cannell is involved in the production, as with the popular series from the "old" days. They kept the integrity of the oh-so-popular series with lots of action and lots of comedy. There are tons of neat stunts, although some may be pretty close to impossible. But what the heck--that's what makes a movie like this fun! We have chopper and airplane stunt flying, action on a container ship, and the strategizing of perfectly timed plans, among other adventures the boys have.
I absolutely loved the movie and will most definitely watch it again. FYI, I do NOT remember any "F" type language, which is rare today--just lots of action and blow-em-up stuff.
I LOVE IT when a movie comes together!
Immediately after the credits, you will see a short cameo appearance of the former Face, Dirk Benedict. (My son met him when he was about 3 years old and will always remember how nice Dirk was to him.)Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you?

Never a dull moment...and Jessica Biel well what can I say...shes the kind of woman that makes you stammer seeing a picture of her shes that hot...but I digress...If I were you, and I was, I would spend the 2 hours and 4 bucks, which I did, for a truly entertaining evening, and it was, with great acting off the charts completely ridiculous action sequences and a Plan that truly came together...
As a note...for a previous reviewer...don't be a schmuck and give a bad review to a movie because the service providing it failed...what are you 12...suck it up there Happy Feet....grab your sippy cup and get yourself a kool-aid refill you'll feel much better...and next time perhaps you could try customer support with the rest of the adults and not throw a tantrum cuz sissy took your rattle...
to everyone else sorry for the rant
I have never reviewed a movie before "The A-Team" but this movie was not only great it more then exceeded my expectations...motivating me to take the extra time to not only review the movie but also chastise a tool for misrepresenting it...
See the movie you won't be disappointed.Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you?

Making Your Pay Stubs without Having a Headache
Holiday season is surely one of the seasons that employees anticipate. Basing on the holiday pay stubs and double-time wages, your employees would surely earn well.

There are a few steps you can follow in order to have a flawless process.
Read more here and you will know the steps that we are talking about in order for your company to flourish.
1. Check the Law regarding Holiday Pay
Most employees believe that every holiday is a chance to receive double way, which is not true. If you want to avoid being asked by your employees about it, you inform them before the holiday comes.
2. The Difference between Double Time and Holiday Hours
You should put in mind that holiday pay and double time are different from each other. There are a lot of notes you can check online with regard to this matter.
3. Considering the Status at Work of Your Employees
Before anything else, you must know if an employee is working part time or full time. Part timers can receive bonuses from you. Full timers also get the benefits that part-timers get on top of their paid vacations. Avoiding confusion can be done by putting it on their payrolls.
4. Calculating Wages
Once you have mentioned that a certain holiday will give them a special rate, put in mind that you have to reflect it on their wages. Your employees render their duties for your company, so you must be able to give back what they deserve.
5. The Calculation of their Double Time
Once you keep their records, you will have no problem in paying them. Everything can be calculated well with the help of the records.
6. Accepting the help from a Trustworthy Pay Stub Making Software
It is very easy to make pay stubs nowadays with the use of the latest technology. Employees will receive their pay stubs right away with the use of a certain software. You will even have backup files for your records, ensuring that you have a copy of everything. Even errors in calculation are almost impossible to happen.
When it comes to your business, it is essential to take good care of everything you have, including your employees. Paying them well is one way of valuing them. Having a good software in calculating their hours of work will surely be of great advantage.
Check this link to get a preview of the software that will calculate your employees' wage correctly. Investing for a good system will make your best employees stay in your company for a long time.

Things I couldn't manage without…
I've been reflecting lately on the things I couldn't manage without. Now obviously the top of my list are my four wonderful children and my lovely man, but that goes without saying really as they will always be at the top of my list.What I have been thinking about are those things which help me get through the day or week as a busy mummy.There were quite a few things when I started to think. The thing is that these things will seem largely insignificant to anyone else but for me they help me function and help my week run smoothly.Here is my list:
- Dry shampoo – I love Batiste and this saves me on days when I don't have time to wash my hair
- Mascara – this is my favourite make up item and I feel naked without it, I love Bourjois
- Contact lenses – I couldn't managed without these, I find glasses really impractical with young children as they always get bashed or pulled, I always go to Specsavers
- Baby Bjorn – taking this away would be a nightmare for me, I just strap my tiny one in and have my hands free for the other children, work, and jobs , I would get nothing done without this
- Hot chocolate and my massive starbucks mug – I don't drink tea or coffee so this is my daily fix to keep me going and it has to be in my special mug
- Green tea – this is a new thing for me in the last 18 months but I try to have at least 2 cups a day and I do feel the benefit, I like the Tetley decaf
- Lansinoh – the nipple cream is one of my top daily items, used on everything from nipples to sore lips to eczema and stray eyebrows
- Olay Total Effects – this helps hide the sleep deprivation and makes my skin feel good
- Bio Oil – I love this and use it on most family members on scars etc but also love to use it on my face and body
- Tangle Teezer – I couldn't manage my long hair without one of these
- Theraline feeding cushion – this means my baby is comfy and I can type and feed at the same time or balance one of the children's books whilst I feed
- laptop – quite simply I could't work without it
- smartphone – I have just switched to a Samsung Galaxy Note 4, it makes it easy for me to keep on top of things when I amount and about with the children or not at my laptop and I use the calendar for reminders
- faye & lou large muslin squares – these are amazing, bigger than the usual ones and great for breastfeeding and winding or even swaddling
- hip hop abs – I have started doing this every day and it is easy to fit around everything else
- baby wipes – I must use hundreds a day but never go anywhere without them
- my chalk board – I have a large one of these in the kitchen I use for reminders of things needed every day, jobs to be done and shopping needed … I love it!

Here comes another report about my google summer of code project. If you want to know more about the project you can read this [0] and this [1] blog post.
This post will only shortly cover the progress of the project. In short: everything goes according to plan right now.
This covers all points of the "Whats Next -> For Boxes" section from my last [1] blog post.
My local Boxes version is now fully capable of injecting preseed files into an initrd image for an automated installation [2].
I wrote an express installation script for libosinfo. This is tested with debian 7 and does work quite well. The very same express installation script seems to work quite well for the ubuntu alternate ISO. There are some adjustments needed to get a GUI there but the difficult things remain. I assume that it will be similar with Linux MINT and other debian based distributions.
Cleaned up patches for those achievements are available on my local system and will be uploaded to the bugtrackers/mailing lists soon. (I already uploaded the Boxes patches here [3])
The libarchive bug [4] I mentioned in [1] seems to just about unhandled hardlinks. I filed bugs for gnomes file-roller and KDEs Ark which are affected too. A fix for my wrapper will probably not come in the next two months since this seems to be a rather complex matter [5]. Nevertheless a reduction of runtime dependencies is possible; see [6] for more information.

Freddie Mac Offering Cash Incentives to Home Buyers and Real Estate Agents in 23 States
realtytoday.com | February 20, 2014
Freddie Mac, the government-backed lending giant, will reportedly pay cash incentives to home buyers and real estate agents in 23 target states, who sell or list a foreclosed home owned by the firm. The incentive will be given once the home sells, according to several news reports.
The offer comes as a winter sales promotional activity and is applicable on all homes sold through Freddie Mac's property sales division, HomeSteps, between Feb. 18 and April 15. While the listing agent of the home will receive $500, buyers' agents will receive $1,000, according to Inman News.
Home buyers will also receive a $500 cash incentive for buying a property from HomeSteps. Buyers can facilitate condominium association dues, flood insurance premiums or their home warranty with the incentive.
The promotion, however, does not apply to auctions, bulk sales, sealed bid sales and investor purchases.
"HomeSteps' 2014 winter sales promotion is focused on firing up sales in 'cold weather' states and condominium deals everywhere. With mortgage rates still low and home inventories tightening, the 2014 HomeSteps Winter Sales Promotion is a great opportunity for families ready to buy and real estate agents ready to sell," Chris Bowden, Senior Vice President, HomeSteps said in a statement.
Certain terms and conditions apply on the offer for both realtors and buyers, and can be seen here.
The offer is valid in Alabama, Connecticut, Colorado, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.
The lending giant hopes to take advantage of the low interest rates prevailing in the market. As of Feb. 13, the 30-year fixed mortgage rate was 4.28 percent and the 15-year fixed mortgage rate 3.33 percent.
Freddie Mac's housing outlook for February predicts that rising home prices and low income growth could bring down affordability. Check out a map here to see how your city ranks.

Credits avoid double taxation
- sales tax
- use tax
- credit for tax paid to other state
- exemptions
- facts can effect the application of sales tax
- sales tax liens
- "nexus" and requirement for a seller to collect remote state's tax
- Streamlined Sales Tax Project
- personal liability of officers etc. for sales tax not paid by entity
- requirement for buyer to withhold sales tax in purchasing a business
States grant a credit towards sales tax due for any sales or use tax properly paid to another state, and a credit towards use tax for sales tax paid to the taxing or another state, so generally double taxation is avoided.
Additional tax may be due where the sales tax previously was imposed at a lower rate than the sales or use tax towards which the credit applies.
While these credits are intended to prevent the same transaction from being taxed more than once, under the "wrong" facts it may be deemed that there are two or more separate transactions with each being taxed.
There may also be cases where the state does not agree that the sales tax paid to another state was proper and refuse to grant the credit.

The demand for domestic services in China is rising as more and more foreigners have come to work and live in the country. Shi Bohong, the general manager of Beijing-based Rikang Home Service Company, says that his company is getting requests for "a housekeeper who speaks fluent English, has good education background, drives and cooks…knows party preparation, flower arrangement, as well as family education."
Around 600,000 expats were living on the Chinese mainland at the end of 2010; about 231,700 of these had work permits, according to the most recent national census by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security.
Many of Shi Bohong's clients are expats working at companies that require long hours, such as embassies. Some are asked to take care of a baby. Though around 1,000 domestic helpers are registered with his form, only around 40 can speak fluent English.
Remember all those skills we mentioned in the first paragraph? A housekeeper who met those requirements would get paid a whopping RMB 12,000 per month – but no one in Shi's company is that qualified. (Yet.)

1 | Tokyo
We made it safely to Tokyo! We had a hilariously simple airport check in experience, clocking in under 40 minutes from our door to the boarding gate. I guess there isn't too much happening at 5.30am! A 10 hour flight and two swollen ankles later we touched down in Tokyo. A 40 minute train ride into the city gave us the tiniest peek at what this city has on offer. Hopping off the train and onto the street was a bit of an assault on the senses, with lights and smells and humidity all hitting you at once. We went for a bit of a wander around the area we're staying in this evening, and have already taken a dozen photos of soft drinks and vending machines. The packaging is so good! I knew I'd be swayed by advertising and cute details, which is how we ended up with our first purchase being a Halloween themed Hello Kitty donut for ¥128. Wrapped in a napkin, placed in a paper bag and then popped inside a larger plastic carry bag - there's definitely a lot of commitment to packaging!
We're only in Tokyo for a few nights, so our list of things to do is quite a small one. We're hoping to visit the zoo and the Skytree, and my more ridiculous list includes buying cute stationery, visit a cat cafe and see a Shiba Inu. It's the little things!

Attacks in Egypt's Sinai kill two police, three soldiers
Attacks in Egypt's Sinai killed two policemen and three soldiers, officials said, according to the Associated Press.
Two attacks by Islamic militants in restive northern Sinai left five policemen and soldiers dead, officials said, according to the Associated Press.
In both attacks, militants set up roadblocks and stopped vehicles with troops or policemen, the officials said.
In one attack, near town of Sheikh Zuweyid, militants dragged three soldiers out of their car and killed them. In the other attack, two policemen were snatched from their vehicle near the border town of Rafah and shot to death.
The officials say victims in both attacks were off duty and in civilian clothes. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to media.
Northern Sinai has been under the state of emergency since a militant attack on an army checkpoint last month killed 31 soldiers there.
Metro incident
The attack followed a bomb explosion in a Cairo metro carriage that wounded at least seven people.
Egypt has been hit by a wave of attacks, many of them claimed by Sinai-based militant group Ansar Beit al-Maqdis, which on Monday pledged its allegiance to the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria.
Last week, a bomb on a train north of the capital killed four people, including two policemen, while blasts in the Cairo metro and near a presidential palace wounded several others.

Under the Radar, LeBron James is Having his Best Season
For the past few weeks, we've all been talking an awful lot about Jeremy Lin. So much so, in fact, that Deadspin notes in its fascinating weekly Bristolmetrics column that almost 45% of total NBA coverage on SportsCenter last week was devoted to the Knicks and that these 69 minutes of coverage were more than the 66 minutes devoted to all of college basketball.
You know who must be the happiest man in the NBA about all of the attention Jeremy Lin is getting? LeBron James, who is performing at a historically brilliant level while his team is tied for the best record in the NBA.
In his 'Top 10 things to watch in second half column' ESPN's Tom Haberstroh notes LeBron's record pace from the first half of the season (ESPN Insider subscription required):
3. LeBron James' PER by month: December: 39.1, January: 31.2, February: 31.1.
If it holds, James' 32.4 PER will be the best we've ever seen in the NBA. Wilt Chamberlain topped out at 31.8 in two seasons and Michael Jordan peaked at 31.7 in a crazy productive 1987-88. But at the break, James currently has them both beat thanks to his unearthly line of 27.4 points, 8.1 rebounds, 6.8 assists and 1.8 steals on 55 percent shooting. All that in a career-low 36.7 minutes per game.
Derived by ESPN's basketball statistics guru John Hollinger, PER (player efficiency rate) is an advanced metric that measures players' per-minute efficiency–league average is 15.00. If you're into that sort of thing, Basketball Reference has the details of the formula. Further, his 8.4 win shares (an estimate of the number of wins contributed by a player) are significantly above 2nd-place Kevin Durant's 6.6.
Meanwhile, LeBron's Heat are 27-7 and tied with the Thunder for the best record in the NBA. But all most people are saying about LeBron is that he lacks courage for neglecting to force a contested 28-footer at the end of the All-Star game. Especially compared to last season, LeBron and the Heat are sliding under the radar while playing dominant basketball. As the Lin story dies down a little bit, casual fans are going to start noticing.
Their biggest challenge in the Eastern Conference, the Bulls, still haven't shown that they can score when LeBron guards (and shuts down) Derrick Rose. The Bulls' only chances lie in a blockbuster trade or a monster series from Richard Hamilton, Luol Deng, Carlos Boozer,and a cast of role players. No one else in the Eastern Conference can beat the Heat in a seven-game series unless LeBron is injured. With a changing of the guard taking place in the Western Conference, it feels like the older teams like the Spurs and Mavericks won't have the legs to compete with the Heat while the younger teams such as the Thunder and Clippers are still a year away from having the moxie.
For years, Peyton Manning couldn't perform in the clutch. He couldn't win a playoff game. Until he did. Then, he couldn't win a Super Bowl. Until he did. LeBron might not match Jordan's six championships or Kobe's five but he won't be shut out his whole career. There have been times that he's come up short in the final minutes but it's gambler's fallacy to believe that this will happen for perpetuity because it's happened before.
Interestingly (at least to me), LeBron recently demonstrated humility, admitting that he made a mistake with the way he handled 'The Decision' while forgiving Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert for harsh comments made in its wake: "He said what he said out of anger," James said. "He probably would want to take that back, but I made a mistake, too. There's some things I want to take back as well. You learn from your mistakes and move on." He opened the door for a possible return to Cleveland.
Sportswriters and fans have projected their dislike of LeBron's personality and ego into a need to find flaws in his game. He's heard all the criticism, internalized it, used it as motivation to improve his inside game and overall efficiency, and is playing with a chip on his shoulder. The most naturally gifted athlete in the history of the NBA–and perhaps professional sports–is playing with "Nobody Believes in Me" vigor.
The next few months may not change people's opinions about LeBron's personality but there's a pretty good chance that their opinions of his basketball ability and legacy will have to be revised.
