To take in your purse, on the go, or to grab quickly when you don't want to rummage thru your makeup stash to complete a look....I was so thrilled to find ELF's newest BeautyBooks/palettes ($5) and these cute 'little black beautybook' palettes ($5) in Target stores.
It was the email that ELF sent that had me searching for these bargain gems.
Unfortunately the newest Beauty Books (pic above) were a little damaged, each one :( so sad, so I'll be doing some driving around to find them this weekend!
So top picture is of the 'Little Black Beautybook' which flips open and consists of 28 shadows and 20 lip colors, 1 mirror and a dual applicator. I selected the cool collection as it had more colors suitable for the spring and summer time. The other available LBBB, the warm collection, would best be suited for the fall and winter time. All shadows are made splendid, each one staying true to color, doesn't fade, and is good in pigmentation.
Quality of lip colors are amazing with a wide range of consistency and finishes to name a few; shimmery, creme, sheer, and high-gloss.
Just for giggles:
My son decided to create a Makeup Abstract Shrine - thinga-majig :D......... He did an interesting job! Notice how I placed 2 gold crowns on the MAC lipsticks lol

When the topic of the Self-Sufficiency Fund (now renamed as the Economic Vitality Fund) comes up, a common perception seems to be that the fund’s investments have been money down the drain. However a closer look at the fund’s successes and failures would appear to contradict that assessment.
The Self-Sufficiency Fund was created when the United States Congress decided that the Department of Energy should stop making yearly assistance payments to the county to compensate for the loss of property taxes and gross receipts taxes the county would normally receive from an entity the size of Los Alamos National Laboratory.
Sen. Pete Domenici argued for a one-time payment large enough to help the county invest in projects that would create a revenue base in years to come. Congress approved a transfer of $22.6 million from the DOE to the county for that purpose in the early 1990s.
Some of the fund was transferred to the Airport, Fire and Water Funds to finance initial improvements associated with assuming operation of those systems from DOE.
Other expenditures built foundations for economic development, such as preparing the Trinity Site and other land transfer projects for development.
A large portion of the fund lay dormant and earning interest for several years as the county assessed how to use it most. | http://www.lamonitor.com/content/self-sufficiency-fund-has-more-wins-losses?mini=calendar-date%2F2013-04 | 2013-05-18T10:24:10 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
en Anything for the Frequent Traveler? Bonjour Lancôme! I started using Lancôme a few years ago. Fist off, I'd like to start by saying that I love your products!..Being a flight attendant and being from one city to another on a daily basis, I am limited to the amount of stuff I carry with me and not to mention by TSA restrictions. Leaving my skin care stuff behind is not an option. Therefore, it would be great if Lancôme came up with "Travel Sizes" of their products. I find that the sample sizes of the GWP sometimes aren't big enough (or hold enough product) for the frequent traveler. I think the Galeté Comfort among all your products would be great and come in handy in "Travel Sizes"! I for one would definitely benefit from them! Merci Lancôme Got it for Christmas....love it!! My mom got this for me for my birthday/Christmas. She said I really should try it....I would love it. I was like mmm okay, I will. So.....I tried it. Oh, my. My face feels very soft....and very clean, I am serious. I mean, I did use other boring products....just clean it, that's it. But....this product, wow. It cleans VERY VERY WELL. It smells strong, but hey...it works very well. It's amazing. I just turned 26 last month. Some people say I look young....whew, thank god, ha. So, I really want to look good. I will buy this product more when it's gone. I'm glad my mom got it for me! | http://www.lancome-usa.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-lancome_us-Site/default/Product-Show?pid=276448&start=2&cgid=skincare-cleansers-toners&prefn1=collection&prefv1=Confort&bookmark=252512 | 2013-05-18T10:41:36 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

I wanted to like Chicago Deli. Located on Grand River
Avenue, east of Cedar Street, Chicago Deli looks the part of a
redevelopment pioneer, expanding Old Town another couple of blocks.
It’s modest, with only a couple of tables inside and as much patio space outside. It’s quaint, with an order window that looks back into the kitchen where meals are assembled.
And it’s quirky, with headshots of Oprah Winfrey, Barbra
Streisand, Elvis Presley and other celebrities in high school
graduation-style frames on the wall. (I get the Oprah/Chicago
connection, and a Michael Jordan photo makes sense, too; the others
remain a mystery.)
But I didn’t go for the atmosphere, I went for the proclamation on the roadside sign: “Home of ‘The Italian Beef.’” Quotation marks and a definite article — such a claim deserved investigation.
A bit of research before the trip indicated a
Chicago-style Italian beef sandwich would consist of thinly sliced, long
marinated folds of beef served dripping wet on a dense roll and topped
with hot peppers or giardiniera vegetables (typically pickled carrots,
cauliflower, onion, celery and zucchini).
Three high-school-aged girls operated the
place during our visit. They quickly informed us of what Chicago Deli
didn’t have in stock: no potato salad; no cole slaw; no cheesecake; no
onions — until a container of them was found at the bottom of the
fridge. No credit cards — the machine was down. No printed receipt,
either, but one helpful young lady kindly pulled out a notebook and
neatly jotted down the bill.
Outside, the patio didn’t offer much of a
view, being a few feet away from the road and surrounded by parking
lots, an unfortunate but understandable predicament for many
restaurants. A preventable problem, though, was no shade from the hot afternoon sun.
We went with a couple of 99-cent hot dogs, an Italian beef sandwich ($5.75), a bowl of chili ($2) and an orange soda ($1).
The highlight of the meal was looking at the photos of the Italian beef sandwiches on the wall behind the order window.
It was all downhill from there.
Our hot dogs were plucked from a gas-station-style rolling
machine on which they had been traveling up and down an incline,
bathing in their own sweaty juices for an indeterminate amount of time.
By the time we sat down, the dogs weren’t so hot — warmed through at
best.
So we were looking forward to the Italian beef.
I imagined garlic and spices mingling in a tasty au jus, a
sandwich that would stick in my mind, the memory nagging me for hours
afterward. A friend from Chicago practically drooled when I asked for
his thoughts on Italian beef sandwiches.
First, we noticed the color of the beef didn’t quite match
the pink-red photo inside; our meat was only a slightly darker tan that
the crust of the white bun in which it was housed. The broth from which
the beef was pulled, instead of adding depth, seemed to dissolve most of the flavor from the meat.
The bread for such a sandwich must be
chewy, typically dense Italian-style loaves; some Chicago sandwich
makers actually dip the bread in the broth. At Chicago Deli, the bread
is slightly thicker than an ordinary sub bun. The result is a mushy
mess, all the way through to the crust, by the time you’re halfway done.
The chili, served in two small containers
because they were out of large containers, was simply ground beef,
kidney beans and tomatoes (canned, we suspected). No seasoning was
detected: no cumin, hot sauce, paprika or, surprisingly, even salt. Even the canned soda had demerits, tasting flat, as if it had been overhandled.
When little mom-and-pop places sprout up,
I like to give them a shot, hoping for the best. Too bad Chicago Deli
doesn’t live up to its own signboard.
In the meantime, there’s always a place
southwest of here, just a four-hour road trip away, where you can get a
fine Italian beef sandwich.
It’s called Chicago.

San Antonio.- Bexar County Pct. 1 Commissioner Sergio “Chico” Rodriguez and County Judge Nelson Wolff launched the County’s new $3 million high water detection system known as HALT, or High water Alert Lifesaving Technology, with a demonstration of the newly installed system on Shepherd Road at Live Oak Creek.
The site is one of 52 in Bexar County and will utilize flashing lights and gates to warn drivers when the road is flooded. The County leaders were joined by Southwest ISD Superintendent Dr. Lloyd Verstuyft and Southwest ISD board members who praised the system for helping to protect the community from flash flooding.
Through the HALT system, Bexar County citizens will also have access to a map on the website that will provide the real-time status of the 52 HALT locations, so drivers can see which roads are safe to travel.
“We’ve made huge strides toward reducing flooding and dangerous road conditions through projects like the Ingram Road Bridge and dozens of other projects across the County,” the County Judge said. “For many of the low water crossings outside city limits, drivers often just need a warning to turn around and find another route. That’s especially true on rural roads where it’s dark and difficult to see the high water. HALT will accomplish that and it will enhance our emergency operations systems during major storms.”
Bexar County contracted with High Sierra to install, monitor and maintain the system, which will be compatible with the City of San Antonio’s high-water detection system. Bexar County and the City of San Antonio are also coordinating to determine the need for additional placements within city limits in the future.
“As Bexar County continues to grow and people continue to move further outside city limits, we have to find ways as a County to improve safety and to utilize technology to help people stay informed about their routes to-and-from school, work and home,” Precinct 1 Commissioner Rodriguez said.
“There are 20 HALT locations in my precinct at critical low water crossings. In addition to the millions of dollars we invested in projects like the Shepherd Road Bridge and Shane Road Bridge, I am proud to say that we are improving quality of life for all citizens of Bexar County.”
When viewed the HALT works much like a regular traffic light.

Buffalo, NY--A new polymer grating developed by engineers at the University at Buffalo (UB), The State University of New York, is rainbow colored when viewed from a single perspective, reflecting many different wavelengths of light. The polymer is fabricated in a one-step, low-cost method and could be used as a filter for handheld multispectral imaging devices that identify the "true color" of objects examined.
.
The rainbow colors appear due to the surface geometry of the filter, and not by pigments; the same biomimetic principle that colors the wings of butterflies and peacock feathers. The work was reported on online Feb. 22 in Advanced Materials. The UB Office of Science, Technology Transfer and Economic Outreach (STOR) has submitted a provisional patent application detailing the production process to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
To create the rainbow material, the creators sandwiched a photosensitive pre-polymer syrup between two glass slides. Next, they directed a laser beam through a curved lens placed above the pre-polymer solution. The lens divided and bent the laser beam into light of continuously varying wavelengths. As this light hits the solution, monomers in the solution began joining into polymers, forming a continuous pattern of ridge-like polymer structures. The resulting structure is a thin filter that is rainbow-colored when viewed under white light. The filter the researchers created was about 25 mm long, but the technique they used is scalable and different sized filters can be fabricated.

Green waste collection offered to outlying county areas
For $7.42 a month, customers who sign up for the program will be provided with a 95-gallon green waste cart, which can be set out the same day as their scheduled refuse and recyclable material collection.
The Lassen Regional Solid Waste Management Authority approved amending the franchise agreement for green waste collection in the secondary area at its Tuesday, June 26 meeting.
Accepted green waste includes leaves, grass clippings, small branches and untreated wood.Bricks, concrete pieces, treated wood, pet waste, ashes, sawdust and tree stumps are not allowed.
According to Damon Shea, general manager for C & S Waste Solutions of Lassen County, people should not bag the green waste debris as it ishauled to the Bass Hill Landfill and ground.
For more information call 252-1200.
Green waste collection services are already offered for customers in the primary franchise area including Susanville, Lake Forest, Litchfield, Janesville and Standish for $4.89 per month.
The higher rate for people living in the secondary area is due to the long distances from the Bass Hill Landfill.
With the uncertainty regarding the number of residents in the secondary area who may sign up for green waste collection services, C & S Waste will have the opportunity to revise the fee at the end of 2012.
The authority sent C & S Waste a letter requesting a proposal for green waste collection services in the secondary area after Jim Chapman, an alternate director at the May 22 meeting, forwarded a request to staff from directors Bob Pyle and Jack Hanson about providing collection to Westwood, Spalding and Herlong.
In response to the extension,Pyle said he appreciated it, but he would like to see something be re-enacted for those who are not signed up for garbage collection services with C & S Waste Solutions.
Hanson said he echoes those comments.
Authority manager Tom Valentino said there are several options the authority is looking at including working with C & S Waste in providing bins in Herlong, Westwood and Spalding for green waste collection events.
According to Valentino, the authority suspended its green waste disposal program at the three outlying areas because the stockpiles were contaminated due to people throwing other garbage in with their green waste and the piles couldn’t even be burned.
In Herlong, Valentino said the stockpile was so badly contaminated it had to be hauled to the Bass Hill Landfill to be disposed, which cost the authority a lot of money.
People can dispose of green waste at the transfer stations only if it’s in the trash bins they bring in, but Valentino said it costs $8 per cubic yard.
Valentino said he thinks the green waste program offered by C & S Waste Solutions is very inexpensive at less than $2 per... | http://www.lassennews.com/index.php/navigation-mainmenu-30/local-news/3060-charges-historic-auntimes.com/r/http&v/n/classys/for-sale/legal-notices/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=8182:green-waste-collection-offered-to-outlying-county-areas&catid=2:lassencountynewsheadline&Itemid=1 | 2013-05-18T10:42:39 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

This has to tell old harry Reid he is finished. The enthusiasm gap shows with more than double the percentage of Republicans voting than the democrats.
Without ACORN hitting the streets with their phony double votes the State of Nevada is making a hard right turn. Remember in November.
Good-bye, Harry - Hello, Sue!
The gap between the Dems and Republicans doesn't necessarily carryover to the general election. Since the Republicans are actually choosing a senate candidate whereas Reid is very likely to be the Democratic candidate thus the lower sense of urgency by the Democtatic voters to turn out and vote.
The GOP turnout is due to the 3 person race (Angle-Lowden-Tarkanian).
If Angle wins, look for a small percentage of the GOP vote to switch to Reid or sit out.
There are more dems than repubs overall, what people should have should up in droves to decide between Reid and Fred Conquist? The teapeople are at each others throats...a right wing talker went ballistic at a hillbilly teabag event and shouted down poor Danny Tark... I don't know if it's just because the guy was demoted to a shorter afternoon show or its just that they know that Reid is looking good right now since Angle has pasted up Lowden.
Grand Ole Party, what what!
Republics should have every reason for a large turnout but it's been mediocre at best. Where is the enthusiasm we saw months ago when tea poseurs mobilized a few thousand kooks to Seearchlight for the Harry Reid Bashathon?
Most likely, right wingers are starting to get that sinking feeling that another crushing defeat is just around the corner.
I agree with LastThroes.
It seems, from the comments, that the RepubliCANNOTs are so desperate for good news they twist, mold, form, re-form, kick, slap and de-oxidize pretty much all information to suit their needs.
The truth of the matter is this is just a primary. And Republicans are voting to come up with an idea on who they want to run. But the truth of the matter is they don't have much to work with. On one hand, you have the Chicken Lady. On the other, you have the retired government lady...who complains about big government...the same government that is paying her retirement. And sandwiched in between these two TaliBunnies, you have More Bark Than Bite Tark.
The truth is Democrats are not interested in any of those above idiots. That's the reason for their less than average numbers showing up.
But commenters just see an opportunity, any opportunity, to slam Senator Reid. The way it's been going lately, we could be having a spirited discussion on how to make strawberry cheesecake and then, somehow, someway, somewho, the whole discussion takes a 360 degree left turn slamming Reid, Obama and Pelosi they they have destroyed cheese in America and them illegal immigrants are picking strawberries that American citizens should be picking! (NOTE: In the right wing rants, you absolutely HAVE TO include all three together. They are all duplicious nazoid communistic socialist chopstick users! You only mention Pelosi, it don't have the same effect. It HAS TO be Pelosi/Reid/Obama cabal of impending doom! Just the way it is...)
But what gets me is all this heated talk is only focused on getting Senator Reid voted out. Period. Without any clue on who will replace him. And alot of these people who are doing this are not even from Nevada. An example of this is the ad by one of Dracula's daughters (Mary Cheney) that has been shown lately.
So, I guess it's all predictable.
It only shows that Senator Reid is the only choice for me in November 2010. Because the way it looks now, those lining up against him, if you vote for one of them, it's pretty much like carefully placing an ice cube on a sidewalk in Las Vegas on a hot July afternoon. Very, very soon you end up with nothing.
There is not one Republican candidate that inspires anything other than the same old B.S. song and dance. They can say what they want about Reid...it's takes a lot more than just empty promises and sound bites to achieve the level he has in the US Senate. I am amazed at how Nevadan's don't realize that if one of these funny people is elected, our state will be at the bottom of the barrel with little to no voice. My vote goes to Harry! You go boy!
More spin, lies and pure B.S. from republican
posters here.
Even when these greedy republicans lose
elections, they still don't get it.
Give em HELL HARRY.
Man, you repub's really have your beaks in the sand.
Where on earth are you getting your information?
You do not have a viable candidate capable of beating ol' Harry. Sioux Lowdown has personally seen to that.
BTW...
Remember when Nevada had TWO United States Senators???
Unless Ensin resigns, we'll be one short until 2012!!!
That ain't right, and you Republicans know it.
Hopefully Clark County knows to say NO to Spend-it-all-Sandoval. Despite Sandoval's ads, he was instrumental in forcing the largest tax increase in Nevada history. HERE'S THE SMOKING GUN:...
Harry now has the power to give Navada everything and has done so from the day he took office, - do you really want to vote for another person that will vote No!!! Nothing!!! Nada!! Nix!!! zilch!! ,zip!!! Zero!! No!!! Bupkus!!, !!! that cares more for the party then for the people, the country, and Nevadans????? | http://www.lasvegassun.com/blogs/ralstons-flash/2010/jun/05/gop-turnout-clark-ends-more-20-percent/ | 2013-05-18T10:13:28 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (L) of Mexico takes a punch from Sergio Martinez of Argentina during their title fight at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada Sept. 15, 2012.
Sunday, Sept. 16, 2012 | 12:35 a.m.

Boxing fans will be talking about this 12th round for years to come. That includes Dallas Cowboys owner and boxing fan Jerry Jones.
Sergio Martinez dominated Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. for the initial 11 rounds Saturday in the WBC world middleweight championship fight at the Thomas & Mack Center, winning every round on two of three judges’ scorecards, and 10 of 11 rounds on the other.
He was faster than Chavez, landed more punches and seemed to toy with an overmatched opponent in what could easily be classified as a dull fight.
That all changed in the 12th round. It’s a round that Jones would love to see duplicated at his Cowboys Stadium.
Chavez saved his best for the final three minutes, electrifying the sold-out crowd of 19,000-plus fans with a pair of knockdowns against Martinez in nearly doing the unthinkable of stealing the fight at the end.
Martinez, the 37-year-old from Argentina, twice rose from the canvas in avoiding being knocked out in a dramatic sequence that will surely be classified as one of the best final rounds in the sport’s history. Martinez, despite the flawed ending, easily claimed the unanimous decision victory..
Martinez left the ring at the Thomas & Mack Center with the championship belt to a chorus on cheers from his fan base from Argentina. Chavez, son of legendary Mexican fighter Julio Cesar Chavez Sr., left with the respect of the pro-Mexican crowd on Mexican Independence Day weekend, and with the satisfaction of finally living up to his famous last name.
It didn’t take long for fans to start talking about a rematch. That includes Jones, who often competes with Las Vegas arenas for marquee fight cards at his state-of-the-art facility. He immediately called Top Rank Promoter Bob Arum to over his facility for the sequel.
While the first 11 rounds weren’t anything to write home about, the final round is something everyone wants to see again. Jones included.
During the post-fight press conference, Arum commented that Jones had already reached out with interest of hosting a rematch. The fight had been over for about 40 minutes.
A rematch is something both sides — Arum promotes Chavez Jr. and Lou handles Martinez — seem interested in.
“Boxing deserves a rematch for the fight at some point,” DiBella said. “That was high drama. You watch the first 10 or 11 rounds and you may not think rematch. But, that 12th round, I sweat through everything I was wearing.
“These two guys probably sell out Cowboys Stadium,” he continued. “It’s the biggest fight in boxing right now. If the fans want a rematch, that is what they will see.”
You can’t blame Jones for wanting the excitement of Saturday night at his facility. Thirty minutes after the fight ended, fans from Argentina were still singing and dancing in celebration in the arena. It was the same drill two hours before the fight with the fans of both fighters waving flags and chanting patriotic songs — similar to the Olympics or soccer’s World Cup.
Chavez, who before his gutsy showing in the 12th round, lived in his legendary father’s shadow and had the reputation of not being as passionate about the sport. It was his first loss in 49 fights, but arguably the best result he’s had.
Finally, Chavez Jr. answered his critics. And, indirectly, became an even bigger draw.
“I started (fighting) a little late. That is why I gave away so many rounds and why I lost the fight,” Chavez Jr. said through a translator. “I recognize he beat me correctly. He outpointed me. But I proved I could knock him out. He knows where to put the punches, but he never hurt me.”
The promotion leading up to the fight often became heated with the fighters and their handlers exchanging verbal blows. Chavez Jr.’s efforts in finishing strong changed at least one person’s opinion.
“(Chavez) never backed up. He kept coming forward,” DiBella said. “He never quit in 11 rounds in what was really a boxing clinic and an ass-whooping. In the 12th round, when Sergio wasn’t content to just walk away with a 12-0 decision and tried to end the fight with a knockout, he almost got himself knocked out because that is the kind of (courage) Chavez Jr. has.”
In addition to a rematch with Chavez Jr., DiBella said he would be open to pitting Martinez against a few other fighters. Floyd Mayweather Jr. was even mentioned.
Immediately after the fight, Martinez said he was willing to fight Chavez one more time. That was surely music to Jones’ ears.
“We are two professionals and if Julio wants a rematch, and if the public wants a rematch, we’ll do a rematch,” Martinez said in the. | http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2012/sep/16/sergio-martinez-julio-cesar-chavez-jr-produced-so-/ | 2013-05-18T10:44:44 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Usually I have to get on a plane to get to really talk to anyone else that blogs. We won't make it out to Vancouver for Northern Voice this year, but we did go last February. Then there was BlogHer in Chicago last year and San Jose the year before. Come to think of it I've been doing this blogging thing for a few years now. I've never really considered myself a typical blogger though. I mean, sure I write about my own life sometimes and I do a bit of navel gazing, but I write more about Azeroth than I do about the city I call home.
No, here in Windsor I've always felt like a bit of an anomaly. Sure there are businesses here that have a "web presence" or publish a menu on the web for their restaurant but by and large you get blank stares at the word 'blog'. I think that the sheer number of blank stares I've had to withstand has led to the dismissive tone that I take on when I say "well I blog sometimes..." then drift off incoherently. It was such a long time of Windsor websites looking like abandoned shacks that I think I may have stopped looking for local content. In the meantime, Candace has been working steadily on BlogWindsor and following the local blogging scene.
Apparently something's really been happening out there. We've got local blogs. There's the Windsor Municipal Shadow, International Metropolis and Out of the Driver's Seat to name a few.
If Candace weren't on the ball then I would have missed out on the first WE Speak Bloggers Meet tonight. A bunch of us met up the Mill for drinks and edibles. Among the crowd I got to meet Pina who writes for the most helpful Windsor Eats and on the other side of me was Mark Boscariol of ...Scale Down, Windsor. We all had a great conversation ranging from the usual topics about why we blog and opinions on mainstream media but we also got in to how blogging impacts Windsor. I like to hear other people explain why it is that they blog and what they get out of it. But, more than just explanations, I really enjoy hearing the tone of voice that conveys the new and unusual passion that blogging builds. I like to see a face light up relating the deeply personal satisfaction that blogging can bring. And I love to hear that happening right here in Windsor.
I really wish we could have stayed longer - there was a lot left to hear and say - but with kids at home we couldn't be out too late. Here's hoping that someone has the ambition to get us all together again soon.
Why can't that "someone" be you? Get off yer ass! ;)
Cool stuff! Isn't funny what you can find in your home town. Maybe you should have done more digging around your own back yard like your significant other did - you could have saved on airfare and hotel bills. :)
Anyway, with WindsorEats.com it looks like now I have something to read for those weekends in Windsor - that Thai book sounds good. Hey, where's the WindsorDrinks.com blog?
Well the Lazy Web is closed so I have to be lazy right here. I'm good at attending, haven't had the practice at organizing.
I agree -- I think Rob and his skilz would be ideal to take on organizing the next meetup.
btw, Great recap of the night Rob. :)
Thanks for the great wrap-up on the event. I think you can count on more events in the future. To keep up on the Windsor blogging scene stop in windsoressexspeak.com.
Hey, Thanks for organizing the next one, Rob! Where's it going to be? :)
Seriously, It was a ton of fun last night. Like you, I wish I could have talked to more than just a couple of people but there's always next time.

(BPT) - How many times has your child come home with news of a new penny drive or fundraiser happening at school or a place of worship? How often does this come with an explanation of who the cause or charity serves and how else your child can get involved? Often, children are eager to get involved with these fundraising efforts because there are reward incentives at the end, but parents can take this opportunity to discuss with children the real value of supporting nonprofit organizations.
So what’s the best way to start this conversation with your kids? Find out what’s important to them. Everyone has a cause or charity that is close to their hearts. For your kids, was it helping that lost kitten found in the backyard that sparked their philanthropic passions? Was it when they spent the weekend helping grandma plant a garden? Was it helping mom clean out their toys and taking them to kids who had nothing to play with?
Nonprofit organizations span across many different categories, such as arts, education, environment, animals, health and more. When children focus on things they find interesting, they'll be more apt to stay with them. Whatever it is they are passionate and motivated about, you can help them make a positive impact in the community through giving. It’s important to let kids know that even little contributions can make a big difference. Below are tips to help you get your child engaged in giving:
* Learn what they love. Have a conversation with your children and ask them what they care about. Learning about their passions can help to motivate them, and also help you find more ways to get them involved, such as volunteering.
* Make it a family affair. Include your children in your decision-making process, too, so that they can start to see that there is a clear and thoughtful manner in which you make contributions to charity.
* Acknowledge their good deed. Since children don't get the tax deduction or other tangible benefits of giving that adults often receive, their reward is based on your words of encouragement and evidence of the impact they made. Let them know you're proud of them and tell them exactly why, using specific examples.
* Make this an ongoing effort. There are many ways to get involved with a charity, so introduce children to other forms of donating besides monetary contributions, such as their time and talents. This can foster a lifelong joy of proactive giving.
A good way to get involved this year is with Georgia Gives Day. Georgia Gives Day is a 24-hour, “flash-mob style” statewide giving event that will take place on Dec. 6. With the trend of 24-hour flash mob giving growing across states like Colorado, Texas, Washington, Alabama and Pennsylvania, these “days of giving” have raised millions of dollars, all going straight to local community nonprofits.
Visit to search and select the nonprofit or cause of your choice, and make a donation via credit card. GAgivesday.org makes donating easy for the community by organizing nonprofits on one easily accessible online platform and providing key facts about these charities. Every penny counts when giving back to nonprofits. | http://www.laurinburgexchange.com/pages/full_story/push?article-The+conversation+on+giving-+What+is+your+family+passionate+about-%20&id=20726354&instance=all | 2013-05-18T11:03:18 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Miraculous Gifts
I. An article in the paper, in April, 1997, stated that every typical denomination was losing numbers. Only one segment was showing any growth - the charismatic groups
A. That seems to be true in most areas where I have lived, including the Omaha area.
B. Name the largest groups, and you will find that more than half are a charismatic group.
C. We don’t often think of it as so, but even the Catholic church is a milder charismatic group
1. Charismatic is the belief that the Holy Spirit is continuing to give Christians miraculous gifts
2. I started thinking of this lesson last Thursday as I watched a young woman begin babbling in the middle of an emotional prayer.
3. Most would call it possession by the Spirit or speaking in the tongues of angels. - Ex 4:1-8
2. Moses before the Israelites - Ex 4:29-31
3. Jesus to convince John - Matt, Acts 2:4
3. God has confirmed his word - Heb 2:3-4
D. Once confirmed, the truth is forever confirmed
1. Truth does not change
2. The evidence has been written for us to examine - John 20:30-31, II Tim was. 14:6-19
D. Tongues were to convince the unbelievers - I Cor. 14:22
E. Tongues, along with other gifts, were promised to cease - I Cor. 13:8
V. Those who believe in the continuance of miraculous gifts believe that you are not a true Christian unless you possess a gift
A. The verse sited is Acts 2:38-39
B. The assumption is that the gift referred to here were miraculous gifts. There were other gifts of the Spirit
1. There is the gift of salvation - Eph 1:13-14, II Cor 1:22
C. The gift in Acts 2:38 accompanied becoming a Christian, but miraculous gifts did not automatically come to Christians - Acts 8:5-22
D. Not all Christians had miraculous gifts - I Cor. 12:29-31
E. However, the Spirit dwells with all Christians

Stanley Chesler
Image: Carmen Natale
Merck & Co. shareholders can go forward with a class-action suit alleging the company misrepresented the safety of its arthritis drug Vioxx and that share prices fell when the true risk was disclosed.
U.S. District Judge Stanley Chesler in Newark granted certification on Wednesday for a class of plaintiffs claiming the company's statements violated the 1934 Securities Exchange Act.
Chesler rejected Merck's argument that factual variations in the plaintiffs' claims defeat the typicality and adequacy requirements for class certification.
The suit, In Re Merck & Co. Securities, Derivative & ERISA Litigation, 05-1151 and 05-2367, was filed in November 2003. Chesler dismissed it as untimely in 2007 but the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit reinstated it in 2008, and the U.S. Supreme Court affirmed in 2010.
Chesler certified a class of persons and entities who acquired Merck common stock or call options or sold Merck put options between May 21, 1999, when Vioxx went on-the-market, and Sept. 29, 2004, when it was pulled from shelves amid indications that users faced increased risk of heart attack and stroke.
The judge appointed Steven LeVan, Jerome Haber and Richard Reynolds as class representatives.
In opposing certification, Merck claimed the typicality requirement of Rule 23(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure was undone by some class representatives' individual circumstances. The company noted Reynolds did not have any input into his decision to purchase Merck stock, but had delegated authority on such decisions to an investment adviser. Merck also noted that Reynolds continued to buy Merck stock after the company disclosed the health risks of prolonged use of Vioxx.
But Chesler said the circumstances cited by Merck "amount to no more than minor factual differences" which "do not destroy the fundamental similarity between lead plaintiffs' and the absent class members' claims of injury as a result of Merck's misrepresentations and omissions about Vioxx." Even if Reynolds made his purchases based only on an analysis of Merck's stock price, as defendants maintain, he is not precluded from asserting the same fraud-on-the-market doctrine that other plaintiffs rely on, says Chesler. And Haber's purchase of Merck stock through an investment adviser likewise fails to distinguish his circumstances from those of the class under the fraud on-the-market doctrine, Chesler said.
The "fraud on-the-market" doctrine uses stock price as a proxy for demonstrating actual and direct reliance on a fraudulent statement or omission, since it is "based on the hypothesis that, in an open and developed securities market, the price of a company's stock is determined by the available material information regarding the company and his business," Chesler said, citing Basic, Inc. v. Levinson, 485 U.S. 224 (1988).
Merck also claimed that the same factual variations in the class representatives' circumstances render their interests antagonistic to the interests of the class as a whole, defeating the adequacy requirement. But Chesler said the differences cited "do not remotely approach the level of fundamental conflict required to demonstrate inadequacy."
Merck further argued that the class failed to meet the predominance standard under R. 23(b), because no showing was made that class members relied on the company's misrepresentations and omissions concerning Vioxx. Chesler cited the Supreme Court's establishment in Basic of a rebuttable presumption of classwide reliance based on the fraud on-the-market theory.
The plaintiffs are entitled to invoke the fraud on-the-market theory of reliance because Merck stock is traded on the "indisputably efficient" New York Stock Exchange and because of the public nature of the misrepresentations and nondisclosures at issue, Chesler said. The plaintiffs need not conduct an analysis to demonstrate the NYSE's efficiency because it has been consistently recognized as such by the Third Circuit and other federal appellate courts, he said.
Chesler said issues to be resolved in the case include whether defendants made false statements and/or omissions with regard to the safety of Vioxx; whether such statements and/or omissions related to material facts; whether such statements and/or omissions were made with the requisite scienter; whether class members relied on such statements and/or omissions in connection with their respective transactions in Merck securities during the class period; whether such misrepresentations and/or omissions resulted in "loss causation"; and the economic loss suffered by the class as a whole.
Mark Levine of Stull, Stull & Brody in New York, co-lead counsel for the plaintiffs, said that "getting class certification is always a very significant event." Brickfield & Donahue of River Edge and the New York firms of Milberg and Bernstein, Litowitz, Berger & Grossman also represent the class. Attorneys representing Merck, from the firms of Cravath, Swaine & Moore in New York and Hughes, Hubbard & Reed in Washington, D.C., did not return calls about the ruling. A Merck spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment. | http://www.law.com/jsp/nj/PubArticleNJ.jsp?id=1202586581070&rss=rss_nj | 2013-05-18T10:23:02 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Blog Entry 14
November 22nd, 2009
I was up at the crack of dawn this beautiful Saturday morning and conquered my civil procedure outline. After 7 hours today it is up to date! This evening I’m doing torts homework due Monday. Is it Dec. 18th yet??
I think someone else blogged about this, but let me reiterate… Don’t let your fellow law students stress you out! Comparing how far along you are in your briefs or outlines will stress you out and drive you insane! I have a friend who is completely up to date in every single class. It’s absolutely insane to me and although hearing from other people how they haven’t started brings me some consolation either way I think it is better just not knowing. Just do your very best and you’ll be just fine.

AMERICA, ALL CITY POLITICS TENDS TO be racial — and, if the racial groups have been around long enough, tribal. This isn't true at other levels of government. In state capitals and in Washington, where issues of wealth distribution are determined, class politics exist alongside those of race. At the municipal level, however, governments deal more with issues like housing and policing, issues that are racial to the core. The cries of police brutality, the complaint "There goes the neighborhood" — these are shouted at city halls, not statehouses.
Marx to the contrary notwithstanding, it's always easier to strike a deal on questions of class — at least, on how to divide up the pie — than it is on race. Tribal politics are zero-sum games. The Temple Mount is either Israeli or Palestinian. The next police chief of Los Angeles will be of one race or another (though with rates of intermarriage soaring, this will not always be the case), and that will predispose some groups to support him and others to yelp to the skies. Not that colorblind meritocracy doesn't have its claims, but Mayor Jim Hahn has to select a chief of police in a city where race still matters — no matter how liberal, cosmopolitan and multicultural that city may be. He may go off alone to make his final choice, but the politics of race will be there at his side.
There are three local tribes that Jim Hahn can't — and won't — lose sight of in making that choice: Latinos, African-Americans and Valleywhites. This isn't to say that a majority or plurality of these groups, or the political elites of these groups, will insist upon a Latino, or African-American, or Valley-friendly chief. But Hahn has to seem to be weighing these groups' concerns, whoever his choice may be. While Hahn can be insensible to other quadrants, he also knows that the largely liberal white population south of Mulholland is not quite so emotionally invested in this choice, unless he picks a chief in the mold of Bill Parker or Daryl Gates. Which he won't.
There's a fourth group, too, that Hahn can't ignore: the LAPD itself. Former Chiefs Willie Williams and Bernie Parks were both brought down in large part because they provoked heavy opposition from elements of the department — in Williams' case, the conservative old guard; in Parks', the rank and file and their union, the Police Protective League, to whom Parks came across as a drill sergeant with a toothache. The PPL's political clout was already such that in last year's mayoral election, every candidate sought its support. As it is also the grim reaper of recent chiefs, any mayor would need some indication that his choice, at least for an initial period of time, would fly with the flatfoots.
OVER THE PAST DECADE, DIFFERENT groups of Angelenos have laid claim to two key civic-leadership positions. After Daryl Gates, Rodney King and the '92 riots, after it was clear to almost all that the LAPD's historic racism was also the LAPD's ongoing racism, much of the African-American community insisted, with good cause, that the best possible new chief would be black. That surely was a factor in the decision of Tom Bradley's Police Commission to choose Philadelphia's chief, Willie Williams. When Richard Riordan, whose mayoral bids had fallen flat with black voters, sacked Williams, he decided to anoint Bernie Parks not only as a matter of personal preference, but because he needed to keep politics in black L.A. from exploding.
Similarly, as the L.A. Unified School District became overwhelmingly Latino (the percentage in fall of 2001 was 71.4 percent) and the God-awful condition of LAUSD schools became a huge concern for Latino parents, many Latinos concluded that the position of district superintendent would best be filled by one of theirs. When Richard Riordan's school board moved to sack Superintendent Ruben Zacarias, the reaction in Latino L.A. was strong and swift: First came the cries that Zacarias be brought back; then, the demands that his successor be Latino.
The Zacarias affair was but a prelude to the eruption of rage that followed Hahn's decision to dump Parks. Los Angeles is a city where truly nut-case ethnic politics, mercifully, is a sometime thing (unlike New York, where it's a constant), but the reaction in the black community to Parks' heave-ho was a wake-up call to anyone who thought multicultural L.A. had left ethnocentrism in the dust. Parks had taken on the PPL, which is disproportionately the political home of the good old (and younger) boys so feared and loathed by the African-American community. That made Parks, in the eyes of many black Angelenos, the enemy of their enemy; and what more could you want in a friend? In every other particular, though, Parks aggressively worked to restore the good old days of Daryl Gates. He opposed civilian control of the force, resisted Christopher Commission reforms to weed out the out-of-control officers, opposed the monitoring of traffic stops to see just how many driving-while-black citations his officers wrote.
Yet any number of the African-American leaders — from Maxine Waters on down — who'd raised holy hell about all these policies when Daryl Gates enacted them rallied to Parks' side when Hahn removed him. Hahn was labeled a traitor to his base, and their race. These were not the only voices raised during the Parks and Zacarias controversies: Then-Assembly Speaker Antonio Villaraigosa tried to mediate the Zacarias dispute, while civil rights attorney Connie Rice dared to point out that Parks was not the perfect cause célèbre for black liberals. But the nationalist voices were certainly the louder ones.

AMON TOBIN, JOHN TEJADA, DNTEL at the Henry Fonda Theater, September 26
If no one’s in the venue, does Dntel make a sound? Seriously, though, this kid’s doesn’t sound anything like the Postal Service,” one annoyed patron said, referring to Tamborello’s side project. “Is he always like this?” But just when the evening seemed a washout, John Tejada’s/NIN–esque mash-up, his patented sense of humor better late than never.
RADIOHEAD at the Hollywood Bowl, September 25

EVAN DANDO, RHETT MILLER, CONSONANT at Avalon, September 25
For those who haven’t braved the revamped, renamed Avalon: It’s the Palace you know and tolerate, gussied up with op-art carpeting, comfier balcony seating and annoyingly blocked-off VIP areas, though what VIPs were expected on a Miller-sponsored weeknight, I can’t tell you. No points whatsoever to venue or promoter for forcing Consonant onstage, unbilled, at an insulting 7:30, preventing a still-gathering crowd from discovering Mission of Burma co-founder Clint Conley’s passionately wise new songs.
The lengthy acoustic set by Old 97 front man Rhett Miller mixed band material, songs from his 2002 solo album, The Instigator(an uneven bid to fly the alt-country coop), and a few unrecorded numbers. But without the 97’s tough backing, Miller overcompensated, hacking away at breakneck speed and headbanging — he’s got the locks for it — as though something were happening up there that just plain wasn’t. Best in show: “The New Kid,” an incredibly bitter meditation on fame (“You’ll get carried away/You will be replaced”) with a sweeping, Smiths-worthy chorus.
Miller needed a band; Evan Dando could have left his at home. His show-closing spot was loose but affecting, especially on the Hank Williams–simple ando’s disengaged vocals. It’s great that Dando — who could tell Miller some Next Big Thing stories — has survived a decade of drugs and seclusion, but if his second act’s this dull, it’s no victory for his fans. (Franklin Bruno)
WEEN at the Wiltern, September 24
You’ve it’s a love that’s more begrudging, chuckling “Okay, nowwwww I get it” admiration than instinctive insta-lust. Ween is that kind of band: The further you go, the more you know how good they are. How great they are. ’Cuz you can’t dig where they’re at, the absurdly high level of their craft, until you’ve heard their range and depth, which tonight unfolds across two dozen–plushead’sSeason don’t ask why. (Jay Babcock)
POLE, I’M NOT A GUN, PHTHALOCYANINE at the Silent Movie, September 24
The drums and electric guitar of I’m Not a Gun offset much DJ laptopping from Phthalocyanine while Robert Drummond’ske’s ever-sliding panoply of slow computer sterility plays out alongside silent-film passages — yet here is the sooty rhythm of dub, a New York saxophone and an occasional but regular chime. Things are made sterile because man forces nature’s music’s lonesome freeway, where the brake pedal of the automobile is ably replaced by the infinite-repeat button of the compact-disc player. (David Cotner)

Brackenbury v. Hodgkin – Case Brief
Brackenbury v. Hodgkin, 116 Me. 399, 102 A. 106 (Me. 1917).
Facts: Widow Sarah Hodgkin (D) wrote to her daughter and son-in-law (“Brackenbury”, (P)) and asked them to move from Missouri to Maine to care for her for the rest of her life. In exchange Mr. and Mrs. Brackenbury were given the use of the farm and household goods and were to receive the property upon Hodgkin’s death. Ps moved to Maine and lived on the farm and cared for D until an argument ensued several weeks later. D asked P to depart and executed and delivered the deed to the property to her son Walter. P sued for a reconveyance of the property. D appealed the trial court’s judgment for P.
Issue: What are the legal consequences of an offeree beginning performance of a unilateral contract?
Holding and Rule: Beginning performance of a unilateral contract creates an option contract that renders the offer irrevocable until the offeree has had a reasonable time to complete performance.
An option contract is created when the offeree begins the invited performance under a unilateral offer. In this case D’s offer was in writing and there was no dispute regarding its terms. D’s offer was unilateral and P’s act of moving and beginning to care for D was substantial part performance.
Disposition: Affirmed; Judgment for P. | http://www.lawnix.com/cases/brackenbury-hodgkin.html | 2013-05-18T10:41:49 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

W.
You are here: Home » General » W
I’m no great fan of Andrew Cuomo at all, but if anyone thinks he’s the only bad NY Democrat, or the worst one, you ain’t been paying attention to NY politics for long.
Christine Quinn will probably be the next mayor of NYC.
As Mayor Bloomberg found out in 2009,in the City’s new demographics, she will need a ton of money to win. She’s earning some of it now.
Only if that other piece of totalitarian garbage currently occupying the office doesn’t decide he wants to rule another term.
I highly doubt that the Romneys’ childcare was unpaid.
I know it looks bad for Brown to veto this law, but I’m not sure it was workable. I think it would have been hugely unpopular.
I’ve never understood how the average person is supposed to comply with it. It’s reasonably easy to give sick days and vacation; we’ve always done that. Overtime’s not a big issue; if you need 10 hours of care, you back out the pay and figure out what the regular and +50% rate is. This is a bookkeeping issue more than anything else.
But it’s virtually impossible to give “meal breaks” and “rest time.” I don’t mean letting a worker eat; of course they eat. And they “rest,” but they “rest” while the kids are napping or doing something. They can’t just go run some errands while the kids watch themselves. I don’t know how a rest break is supposed to work.
Let’s say you hire your nanny to look after your 2 and 4 year old and it’s lunch time for your nanny. Are you supposed to drive home so your nanny gets a lunch break? Are you supposed to hire a “lunch nanny?” (In case that’s what you think you should do, no, you can’t hire a nanny just for lunch. If you think it is, go to any nanny site and try to find somebody who will do it for less than most of the cost of a full-time nanny.) Are you supposed to have your nanny drive your two kids to some sort of “lunch day care” for an hour? (No, those generally don’t exist and the ones that do are also really expensive.)
And rest breaks? Gah.
I don’t understand how that law is supposed to work for the average family. It’s fine for contract workers at big agencies, but short of just trying to make it impossible to hire a domestic worker? My guess is this law would be completely ignored until OSHA started enforcing it, then there will be enormous outcries because a schoolteacher and a cop in Pomona are getting fined $10,000 because their nanny didn’t get a lunch break.
So your nanny is supposed to be on her feet for 10 hours straight, only sneaking a bite to eat or peeing when the kids are asleep, and that’s supposed to be safer and more wholesome for the little charges? I’m sure she’ll have a great attitude, be alert, uninjured, springing to the post whenever the little darlings get rambunctious at 3:30pm.
He’s also careful to make sure we know the Real Victims of the proposed law–average (read: middle class, white) folk. Only baby farms can afford to give their wetnurses a snack every once in a while. Average, god-fearing folk find treating adults with the same kindness they reward children difficult, unrealistic, and bad for the chillun. Better to raise them right off the bat knowing that their nannies are inferior subhumans.
Willing to bet this dude cracks atoms in half for work, but has developed this convenient learned helplessness only in the past couple years, and only when he’s at home. Those jars won’t open themselves!
this just crushed you completely:
i’m guessing not to many schoolteachers and cops in pomona are hiring nanny’s to watch their kids during the day. nope, not at all.
you’re the same putz who claims that any raise in the minimum wage will cause mcd’s to stop hiring burger flippers, ignoring the real fact that the minimum wage has nothing whatever to do with how many burger flippers mcd’s hires, demand does.
another spurious claim, with no tangible evidence supporting it, in an effort to screw over the working class.
you clowns are consistent, if nothing else.
The average family does not have a nanny.
Though the teacher/cop family in Pomona is in the top 10% of household income(2.5X median) in that city I doubt many of those couples have nannies either.
High income progressives justifying the continued exploitation of domestic workers is fairly standard these days.
Nope, Jerry Brown also fucked over bicyclists and farmworkers. There’s no explanation; he just responds to money. Look at his record as mayor of Oakland.
I think Brown gets bonus points here for also vetoing a bill that would have granted Research Assistants in the UC and CSU systems collective bargaining rights last weekend. Of course, it probably helps that the UC chancellor has a direct line to the governor to whine about how RA unions would destroy the UC system. Somehow, I’m sure no RAs were consulted by the governor.
A similar measure was put on the ballot with more than enough signatures in Orlando, Florida, but scrubbed off through dirty tricks.
This is bullshit and Cuomo’s name should be mud. I fear for our future when his name is floated as a potential 2016 contender.
And Brown may be betting that unions in CA will lose the battle to continue to be involved in politics, the so-called “paycheck protection act”. Unions better gird their loins and fight like hell in CA or conditions are about to get a LOT worse.
Christine Quinn must be taken seriously as a mayoral contender next year, but she is by no means a lock. Lots of people are pissed at her for collaborating in the dead of night with Mayor One Percent to tamper with the term limits law, and that could come back to bite her in the Democratic primary.
EIB of the day: Scott Lemieux, and pretty much everyone who writes for Salon. Legislating benefits does not make workers better off; it simply shifts compensation from wages to benefits.
On the other hand, Jerry Brown did sign bills letting nurses and midwives perform abortions, making the state create open-access textbooks, and banning sexual orientation conversion therapy for teenagers. So if you care about that kind of social justice, you should be at least sort of happy. | http://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2012/10/wankers-of-the-day-6 | 2013-05-18T10:41:00 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
UNC.
When UNC controlled the face and Duke went man-down for tripping, the Heels threw a man-up at Duke that would make a surgeon proud. Sonke drew attention behind after some movement around the horn, and lobbed it up top to Garrison, who faked on a shot that he could have taken and dumped it to Bell on the right wing. Bell ripped high past Breslin, and he had all the time in the world to do it.
Duke finally got a notch on the board when Breslin made an insane, leaping, point blank save on Lucas (who was all alone), pushed it up to Hartofilis, who then did the dirty work of driving lefty from up top and ripping one low past Blindenbacher. But UNC's Garrison got himself another smart man-up assist when he found Will momentarily alone on the crease during a Duke slash penalty and threaded him from behind left.
Duke managed to get an extended possession and whipped it around the horn, each guy taking a shot at a matchup. UNC was stretching their defense to the corners of the box up top, so Duke had more room to work with, but UNC could anticipate a slide faster. It looked to be a draw -- Duke could get a step and a crank, but never really penetrate the middle of the D.
UNC's Staines then got hit with an illegal body check, but Duke couldn't covert despite some great cross-crease threads -- Cassese fanned twice on feeds delivered to him on the doorstep. Duke decided to hold for the 2nd quarter face and the 1st ended with UNC up 3-1.
UNC withstood the remaining penalty and even managed to draw one of their own when Hunter Henry got flagged with a slash. UNC remained deadly on the extra man -- after their usual around the horn, Will took it behind and looked to be continuing the circle around to his right, but noticed Garrison hanging on the lefty shooter's spot up front. Will reversed the ball him and Duke's over-sliding defense couldn't get back in time -- Garrison buried it with a lefty bullet to left upper corner.
Duke did close the gap on their next possession though when Greg Patchek bull dodged to the crease from the right wing, got triple-teamed and had his elbows lifted, along with the ball, but Devin Wray was waiting for the gift to land on the other side of the crease. He accepted it.
UNC came right back when Lucas completed a really pretty look to a streaking Lance Zimmerman on Breslin's left, which was immediately followed by Duke's Cassese dumping it from behind to Kevin Brennan on the right wing, which was immediately followed by Brennan's no-angle rip past Blindenbacher, which was immediately followed UNC's Lucas ripping a precision off-pipe blast from the wing to make it 6-3 UNC, which was immediately followed by yours truly having trouble hunting and pecking all of this on a freakin' laptop.
After a weak slash call against Duke, UNC was yet again on the EMO, and they kept the fire going with another sharp backside feed from Steven Will. He managed to get Duke to over-commit to the strong side and whipped it Pat Jackson across the grain, who was sneaking down from the restraining line. Jackson had target practice on Breslin for a 7-3 lead.
Defense was on display for the remaining minutes of the half as both squads played tough position with their shorti's and threw in an occasional circus save or longstick robbery (UNC's Staines was cherry picking guys from behind). The half ended with UNC up a commanding 7-3.
Duke got the first chance on offense in third, and they displayed what looked to be the results of a Pressler locker room thrashing for not moving the ball enough -- the rubber was flying all over the place, a marked departure from Duke's mostly one-on-one forays in the first. They connected when Cassese drove right from the top of the box and instead of ripping it, threaded it across the crease (at almost shot speed) to Brennan on the paint, who redirected it just under the pipe.
Brennan doled out the goods moments later when he collected himself behind, got some room and a look, and hit Lieske off the right pipe to close the gap to two. It became a one goal game when Patchek found himself being covered by a shorti behind the net, and despite an attempted shut-off, lost his man, got the ball, and set himself up for a drive. He bulled from the lefty wing, drew a double, a threw a touch pass across the field to Chemotti, who then moved it down to the crease, and an all alone Lieske, when the slides flew at him. Lieske finished point blank uncontested.
It got tied up when Duke's Terrence Keaney drove from top left to top right, muscled through a double and then a triple as the waves of slides hit, but somehow was able to get off a strong 15 yard bouncer that nailed the top corner.
UNC finally got some time on offense and made the best of it -- Pat Jackson got floated a pass during an EMO at the top right of the box and he hopped, skipped, and jumped on his wind-up. His rip nailed Breslin in the chest protector and it ricocheted to the left, where Sonke gobbled it up and drove hard across the middle, blasting it by Breslin. 8-7 UNC.
After the host of powerful drives by Duke, UNC moved to a sloughing zone, but Duke continued to control the ball for long stretches of time. The Blue Devil's ball movement was also causing some gaffes in UNC's coverage, as UNC was occasionally slow to cover guys just rotating into the hole. Brennan found one of the seams and hit Jimmy Regan as he slid unnoticed down to just 5 yards outside the crease. It made it 8-8 and the quarter would end that way after some wide rips and great saves.
The fourth started with some physical drives by Patchek, who bulled around from left behind and unleashed one by Blindenbacher unassisted for 9-8 lead. Patchek was a bull in the middle -- he could will himself into position and was usually able to turn and rip or just power a shot through. And Duke was really dominating the time of possession now, allowing Patchek and crew's constant drives to whittle away at UNC's stamina.
It became 10-8 Duke when Brennan, after a host of others challenged their man, took his defender across the top from left to right, rolled back to the short side, and as he appeared to be losing his footing, ripped one by Breslin to the upper left on a quick release. Almost on the next series, Terrence Keaney picked a UNC clear near the left sideline, and bolted the other way with only one defenseman hanging back. Patchek was making a line to the goal from the other side of the field and Keaney hit him on unintentional bounce pass; Patchek threw a host of pump fakes on Blindenbacher to up their tally to 11.
Steven Will got it to within striking distance at 11-9 when he finished a feed off the right pipe, but time was running down, and Duke was already playing keep-away. The kept on playing it, despite some nastiness on Carolina's part (the refs let a lot of cheap shots go near the end), and ran out the clock to insure a meeting with the Terps on Sunday.

Duties and Blessings of the Priesthood: Basic Manual for Priesthood Holders, Part A
The Gift of the Holy Ghost
“Lesson 30: The Gift of the Holy Ghost,” Duties and Blessings of the Priesthood: Basic Manual for Priesthood Holders, Part A, 223
The purpose of this lesson is to help us understand the great blessings that can come through the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Introduction
After we are baptized, we are given the gift of the Holy Ghost by the laying on of hands. Concerning the gift of the Holy Ghost, President Lorenzo Snow counseled: “We should try to learn the nature of this spirit, that we may understand its suggestions, and then we will always be able to do right. … From the time we … [receive] the gift of the Holy Ghost, we have a friend, if we do not drive it from us by doing wrong. That friend is the Holy Spirit” (in Conference Report, Apr. 1899, 52).
• Show visual 30-a, “The gift of the Holy Ghost is the right to have the Holy Ghost as a constant companion.”
• How is the Holy Ghost like a friend?
• Have class members read John 14:16, 17, 26 and John 16:13. Why do we need the Holy Ghost to be our companion and friend? (List responses on the chalkboard. Answers may include the following.)).
Because the guidance of the Holy Ghost is so important, we should do all we can to be worthy of His companionship.
Keeping the Holy Ghost with Us
There are many things we can do to keep the Holy Ghost with us. One way is to partake of the sacrament worthily. Each time we partake of the sacrament, we promise that we will obey the Lord’s commandments. If we keep our promise, the Lord has promised us that we can “always have his Spirit” with us. (See D&C 20:77.)
Another way to keep the Holy Ghost with us is to keep our bodies morally clean. The Apostle Paul taught that our bodies are like temples and that we must not defile them (see 1 Corinthians 3:16–17). The Holy Ghost cannot dwell in unclean temples; it is important, therefore, that we keep our bodies clean and pure in thought, speech, dress, and action, avoiding even the appearance of evil. Elder Melvin J. Ballard said, “The Holy Ghost is the most sensitive spirit I know anything about” (quoted in 1967–68 Priesthood Study Course: Deacons Quorum, 70). Because He is so sensitive, the Holy Ghost can be offended by what we may consider unimportant things.
To keep the Holy Ghost with us, we must live in harmony with those around us. Speaking to the Nephites, Christ said that the spirit of contention comes from the devil (see 3 Nephi 11:29). The Holy Ghost cannot dwell where disunity and disharmony exist. For this reason, arguing with our wife or quarreling with a brother or sister will drive the Holy Ghost away from us and from our homes.
The Prophet Joseph Smith, for example, could not receive any inspiration from the Lord unless he had the right feelings toward everyone. One morning he became upset about something his wife had done. Later, when he tried to translate some of the Book of Mormon, he found he could not. Concerned, he went to an orchard and prayed, and then he came back to the house and asked Emma’s forgiveness. Only then was he able to translate. (See B. H. Roberts, A Comprehensive History of the Church, 1:131.)
Our need for the Holy Ghost is just as great as the Prophet’s was. We need the Holy Ghost to guide us in our responsibilities and especially in directing our families. When our children do wrong, for example, we should not lose our tempers but should ask the Holy Ghost to direct us in correcting them (see D&C 121:43).
• What are some things we do that prevent the Holy Ghost from being our companion? What can we do to keep His companionship?).
Ways the Holy Ghost Helps Us
When we show by our faithfulness that we desire to have the Holy Ghost as our companion, He helps us in the following ways to live happier and better lives:
He Helps Us Be Better People
The Holy Ghost “inspires virtue, kindness, goodness, tenderness, gentleness, and charity” (Parley P. Pratt, Key to the Science of Theology, 4th ed. [1877], 102).
He Shows Us What to Do
The Holy Ghost can help us make important decisions.
• Read Doctrine and Covenants 6:15 and D&C 8:2. How does the Holy Ghost help us make decisions?
He Guides Us As We Serve in the Church
Elder Franklin D. Richards related how the Holy Ghost
There are times when the Holy Ghost warns us of danger or temptation. Elder Franklin D. Richards told of a young father who “was awakened one night by a voice that clearly told him to get up and go downstairs. He heeded the warning, and in going into the kitchen he found one wall engulfed in flames. Hurriedly he awakened his family and called the fire department, and with the help of his family he).
He Can Comfort Us
One of the roles of the Holy Ghost is to be a comforter in times of pain or sorrow. At such times, the Holy Ghost can help us find peace and understanding. Elder Franklin D. Richards related the following experience: “It was my privilege to meet two wonderful women, close friends, who had lost their husbands in a tragic airplane accident. Did I find them in despair and deep mourning? No, indeed. I have never witnessed greater courage and strength. They bore witness to the fact that they had truly felt the comfort of the Spirit, …; … [every [asked]: ‘Do not weep, do not cry, Heber; since we went out of this room the voice of the Lord from heaven has said to me, ‘In the death of your mamma the will of the Lord shall be done.’ …
“I … know that God hears and answers prayers! [I know] that in the hour of adversity the Latter-day Saints are comforted and blessed and consoled as no other people are!” (Gospel Standards, comp. G. Homer Durham [1941], 361).
He Testifies of the Truth
It is through the Holy Ghost that we receive our testimony of the gospel. In the same way, the Holy Ghost will help us know when our leaders are speaking by the power of the Holy Ghost. President Henry D. Moyle taught: “We can tell when the speakers are moved by the Holy Ghost only when we ourselves are moved upon by the Holy Ghost. Therefore, it is essential that the membership of the Church be just as diligent in their faith as their leaders” (“Revelation: Yesterday and Today,” Improvement Era, June 1962, 407).
• Invite a previously assigned class member to relate an experience in which he felt the companionship of the Holy Ghost.
Conclusion
The gift of the Holy Ghost is a great blessing given to those who have been confirmed members of the Church. If we live worthy of His companionship, He will help us to successfully complete our missions here on earth. He will do this by guiding us, protecting us, comforting us, and otherwise helping us in all areas of our lives.
Challenge
Seek the companionship of the Holy Ghost in your daily life. To know the areas in which you need to improve to have the Holy Ghost as a constant companion, ask yourself the following questions:
1. Am I trying to keep all the commandments?
2. Am I praying regularly?
3. How am I showing my love for the Savior?
4. How am I showing my love for others?
5. Am I keeping my thoughts and actions pure?
6. Do I thank the Lord for His blessings, including the gift of the Holy Ghost?
Additional Scriptures
• Acts 5:32 (the Holy Ghost comes to the obedient)
• 1 Nephi 10:17–19 (power and knowledge from the Holy Ghost come through faith in Christ)
• 2 Nephi 31:13 (the Holy Ghost is received following faith, repentance, and baptism)
• Moses 6:61 (the powers and blessings of the Holy Ghost)
Teacher Preparation
Before presenting this lesson:
1. Read Gospel Principles chapter 21, “The Gift of the Holy Ghost.”
2. Invite a class member to prepare to relate an experience in which he felt the companionship of the Holy Ghost.
3. Assign class members to present any stories, scriptures, or quotations you wish.

“I Have a Question,” Ensign, Sep 1975, 36–39
Questions of general gospel interest answered for guidance, not as official statements of Church policy.
Do the scriptures give any indication as to what happened to the family of Jesus after his death and resurrection?
Gerald N. Lund, “I Have a Question,” Ensign, Sept. 1975, 36–37
Gerald N. Lund, curriculum specialist, Department of Seminaries and Institutes
While the answer to this question is yes, it is important to realize that the New Testament writers did not intend to give a comprehensive picture of the personal or family life of Jesus. Their purpose was to portray Jesus as the Christ and to convey the significance of that fact to the world. This partially explains why we have almost no information about the early years of Jesus and why references to his family life are scanty and usually incidental to the main narrative..)
The brothers of Jesus—or more correctly, the half-brothers of Jesus—receive more mention, however. John tells us that the brethren of Jesus did not fully accept him as the Messiah while he was laboring among them (see John 7:5), but evidently, they were converted shortly thereafter, for Luke records that immediately after Christ’s ascension into heaven, the Church met in “prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.” (Acts 1:14.) Also, Paul includes James in his list of those who had seen the resurrected Lord. (See 1 Cor. 15:7.)
More is known about James than any of the other brothers of Jesus. He is mentioned several times in Acts and the epistles as playing a prominent role in the leadership of the church. He takes, for example, a leading role in the great Jerusalem Council, which debated the issue of circumcision for Gentiles. (See Acts 15.) It was James who suggested that a letter be drafted outlining the official Church position on this matter. (See Acts 15:19–20.) Perhaps it should be noted here that some erroneously assume that the James of Acts 15 was James, the son of Zebedee, who served in the presidency of the early church with Peter and John. That James, however, was killed by Herod in a wave of persecution against the church. (See Acts 12:1–2.) This was about a.d. 44, five or six years before the Jerusalem Council.
In his letter to the Galatian saints, Paul refers to James, the Lord’s brother, as an apostle (see Gal. 1:19) and classes him, along with Peter and John, as “pillars” of the church. (See Gal. 2:9.) Some have conjectured from that comment of Paul that James, the brother of the Lord, not only became an apostle, but even filled the vacancy in the presidency caused by the martyrdom of James, the son of Zebedee. The fact that James declared the official policy of the church at the Jerusalem Council would lend added support to that supposition. (Of course, based on present knowledge, it remains conjecture, and is not considered fact.)
It was James, the brother of Jesus, who wrote the epistle of James. Not only does this short letter contain some of the great teachings of gospel doctrine, but in it Joseph Smith found the words which sent him to the sacred grove in the spring of 1820. (See James 1:5–6.) It is interesting to note that in that epistle James does not refer to himself as the brother of the Lord but as his servant. (See James 1:1.)
The writer of the epistle of Jude refers to himself as the brother of James (see Jude 1:1) and so most scholars assume this is Judas, another of the Lord’s brothers. Though he does not call himself an apostle, the fact that his letter would be recognized and accepted as authoritative suggests that he too may have been an apostle..
Aside from the reference to Mary meeting with the Church shortly after the ascension of her Son (see Acts 1:14), we have no record of her after the events of the crucifixion. Ancient traditions, which are not always reliable, tell us that Mary associated with the church in Jerusalem for many years, and finally accompanied John to Ephesus, where she eventually died.
But Mary’s contribution to the church and to the work of her Son may be more lasting than most people realize. Luke frankly admits that he is writing his gospel from material he has gathered from eyewitnesses of Christ’s life. (See Luke 1:1–4.) Many Bible scholars believe that Luke gathered these materials for his gospel while Paul was imprisoned in Caesarea for two years before being sent to Rome for trial before the emperor. (See Acts 24:26–27.) Caesarea was only about 50 miles northwest of Jerusalem. If Mary was still in Jerusalem, what better source of information concerning the life of the Master could there be than his mother?
Some unique characteristics of Luke’s gospel support the possibility that Mary was one of Luke’s sources. First, only in Luke is there a detailed record of the story of the birth of Christ. Matthew records the visits of the angel Gabriel, and of the later visit of the wise men, but it is to Luke we turn to read of the manger and the shepherds, the crowded inn and the swaddling clothes. Only in Luke do we find an account of Gabriel’s words to the young Mary (see Luke 1:26–38), of Mary’s visit to Elisabeth (see Luke 1:39–56), of the nativity (see Luke 2:1–20), of the circumcision of Jesus and the inspired declarations of Anna and Simeon in the temple (see Luke 2:21–38), and of the teaching of the young Jesus in the temple at the age of 12. (See Luke 2:39–52.) And interestingly enough, Luke, who exhibits some of the most polished and refined Greek in the New Testament, uses a Greek that is rough and filled with Hebraic style in the chapters that tell us of the infancy and childhood of Jesus. So markedly different is it from the rest of his work, that one scholar called these verses “translation Greek,” a concept that would perfectly support the idea that this information was supplied by Mary.
The information about the family of Jesus that has survived the erasing effects of time is sketchy and incomplete. Yet the evidence we do have suggests strongly that the family of the Savior played active and prominent roles in the early development and history of the Church of Jesus Christ.
What do we know of Luke’s qualifications to write the book of Acts?
Robert T. Stout, “I Have a Question,” Ensign, Sept. 1975, 37–38
Robert T. Stout, Colorado Springs/Pueblo area director of Seminaries and Institutes
“It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee …
“That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.” (Luke 1:3–4.)
The first of two very long letters written from Luke to Theophilus began with the above quote. These two letters today are called “The Gospel According to Saint Luke” and “The Acts of the Apostles.” These two books comprise 49, 628 (27.3 percent) of the 181,253 words of the New Testament..
We cannot know from his record how much of Luke’s testimony is from eyewitness experience, how much is from others that were called to testify, and how much is the result of teachings of the Holy Spirit. But we do know that, as far as it has been translated correctly, it is the word of God. (See A of F 1:8.)
Some scholars have speculated that Luke may have become a member of the Twelve, but we have no evidence to support the idea. Perhaps he was the equivalent of an Assistant to the Council of the Twelve or a Seventy. It is believed that he died as a martyr about a.d. 75 in Bithynia. Yet nothing more than an educated guess is known of his birthplace or the time of his birth or death. No record can be found of his conversion and early church life. Still, Luke’s contribution to the kingdom, both during his day and ours, is significant. We may not know the man, but we have evidence of his works, and they are far-reaching.
In my gospel study this year, how can I get the most out of the New Testament?
F. Craig Sudbury, “I Have a Question,” Ensign, Sept. 1975, 38–39
F. Craig Sudbury, bishop of the Princeton Ward, Salt Lake Park Stake
As a teacher of English, I am interested in words. As a bishop and a member of the Church, I am intensely interested in the words of the Lord. So when the Lord exhorts us to “search the scriptures” (John 5:39), I am convinced that he means more than simply to read or enjoy them. I think the key to getting the most out of our study of the New Testament this year is found in an analysis of the word search.
1. To search is to look over and through for the purpose of finding something. Let us consider this definition with a special emphasis on the word purpose. What is our purpose for searching the New Testament this year? We need to accept the fact that the Lord wants us to search the scriptures of the New Testament, particularly at this time. It is no accident that the New Testament is the Church-correlated course of study for Melchizedek Priesthood, the Sunday School Gospel Doctrine class, and the Relief Society spiritual living lessons.
The Prophet Joseph Smith wrote in 1834: “No month ever found me more busily engaged than November; but as my life consisted of activity and unyielding exertions, I made this my rule: When the Lord commands, do it.” (History of the Church 2:170.) Therefore, knowing that the Lord wants us to search the scriptures and that he, through his inspired leaders, has designated the New Testament as the scriptures to search, it simply remains for all of us to do it. Our purpose, then, is to obey.
Of course, it would be very difficult to embrace a personal commitment to study without also making a commitment to attend the meetings designated for the investigation of these gospel truths. Those who so prepare and so attend should also participate in class, helping to make the class a thought-provoking and spiritually stimulating experience for all.
2. To search is to look for, to try to find. We will get more out of our study of the New Testament as we increase our ability to find specific scriptures within its 27 books. It would be a simple procedure to print in the manuals the scriptures applicable to each discussion topic. The basic manual, however, is the New Testament itself. Why? Because it is our individual responsibility to find as we search the scriptures. Indeed, the simple procedure of taking our scriptures to class will help us to get more out of our study of the New Testament this year.
3. To search is to go over and examine. A scripture found but not examined is like an ordinance performed without the priesthood; the source of power is missing. How we read the scriptures will determine their influence upon us. Brigham Young once asked, “Do you read the Scriptures, my brethren and sisters, as though you were writing them a thousand, two thousand, or five thousand years ago? Do you read them as though you stood in the place of the men who wrote them?” He then counseled, .” (Discourses of Brigham Young, p. 128.)
What a great experience it would be to follow President Young’s counsel! Husbands and wives could read the scriptures together, as well as alone. Families could spend time together reading and discussing the word of God as recorded in the New Testament. As we truly examine the scriptures, we will not only appreciate the spirit in which they were originally written, but we will also come to know their meaning for us today.
4. To search is to test, to put to the test. After examining and pondering the New Testament scriptures, each member of the Church must put the scriptures to the test in a manner unique to his personal needs. This is the rare kind of test that provides the answers to our problems and to our gospel questions. The prophet Brigham Young, speaking of the scriptures, provides us this assurance: “… they are of great worth to a person wandering in darkness. They are like a lighthouse in the ocean, or a finger-post which points out the road we should travel. Where do they point? To the Fountain of light.” (Discourses of Brigham Young, p. 127.)
As we put the Scriptures to the test, we also put ourselves to the test. We test our ability to really communicate with our Father in heaven as we seek for answers. We prove our ability to regard the scriptures as personal advice and sound doctrine.
Our search is not an aimless one. As we determine a purpose, try to find, carefully examine, and then test, we are promised understanding. As a result of our searching the scriptures the Prophet Joseph Smith tells us, , pp. 11–12.)
It is important to realize, though, that the scriptures come only through the influence of the Holy Ghost, and that we must rely upon that same influence for our own understanding. We must place our lives in line with the will of God; we must seek him earnestly in prayer. Those who only partially do these things will certainly find comfort and strength in the scriptures, but those who seek the Lord with all their hearts will find great insight and increased power of understanding.
The Lord will help us to get the most out of our study of the New Testament this year as we make our own personal commitments to search the scriptures.^ Back to top | http://www.lds.org/ldsorg/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=2354fccf2b7db010VgnVCM1000004d82620aRCRD&locale=0&sourceId=52c461cb2b86b010VgnVCM1000004d82620a____&hideNav=1 | 2013-05-18T11:02:43 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Chapter 33
Nephi’s words are true—They testify of Christ—Those who believe in Christ will believe Nephi’s words, which will stand as a witness before the judgment bar. About 559–545 B.C.
1 And now I, Nephi, cannot write all the things which were taught among my people; neither am I amighty in writing, like unto speaking; for when a man bspeaketh by the power of the Holy Ghost the power of the Holy Ghost carrieth it unto the hearts of the children of men.
2 But behold, there are many that aharden their bhearts against the cHoly Spirit, that it hath no place in them; wherefore, they cast many things away which are written and esteem them as things of naught.
3 But I, Nephi, have written what I have written, and I esteem it as of great aworth, and especially unto my people. For I bpray continually for them by day, and mine ceyes.
10 And now, my beloved brethren, and also aJew, and all ye ends of the earth, hearken unto these words and bbelieve in Christ; and if ye believe not in these words believe in Christ. And if ye shall cbelieve in Christ ye will believe in these dwords, for they are.

JOHNSTOWN - With only a couple of weeks left until Election?Days, local Republicans gathered Saturday at the Johnstown Moose Family Center for the "RepubliCANS and Clams" clambake.

Among those in attendance were State Sen. Hugh T. Farley, State Supreme Court Judges Joseph M. Sise and John Ellis, Assemblyman Marc W.

Continued from Page 1A
The candidates seeking election and re-election spoke about the need for change and thanked everyone who helped them with their campaigns.
Doheny is challenging incumbent U.S. Rep. Bill Owens, a Democrat, for the new 21st congressional district that includes Fulton and Montgomery counties.
Doheny told his fellow Republicans can make a change in a new district.
"Right here in the 21st [district], we have a unique opportunity. We can go ahead, and not only flip the seat, but give another vote for some common sense, another vote for being a fiscal conservative and another vote to turn our country into the right direction," Doheny said. "And you can all help."
The candidates also talked about how they will spend the next two-plus weeks of the campaign going door-to-door to discuss issues with the residents in their district.
The candidates also expressed gratitude for the people who attended out Saturday, and said events where they get to meet the public are very important to them.
Butler said Republican candidates are pleased with how Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's campaign is going, because it is helping the entire party.
"His success and what he's done; Republicans are energized. They're gonna be involved. They're going to come out and vote," Butler said. "That's going to offer well for all the Republican candidates. I appreciate the job he's doing, and I think it's great for all of us."

Leaf Slugger™ Clog Free Gutter Cleaning Prevention System™ Permanent Solution To Cleaning Gutters
- Eliminates ice dams, clogs and rain.
- Integration with your roof is seamless
- Clog Free Guarantee
- Manufactured in the USA
Leaf Slugger™ - A Gutter Cleaning Prevention System™ You Can Trust!
The Leaf Slugger™ gutter cleaning prevention and water management system is a clog-free way to keep your gutters clean. You know that gutter protection is a necessity if you want to defend your home against the elements—but did you know that gutter covers, gutter shields, and gutter caps are not your only options? The Leaf Slugger™ gutter protection system is a proven solution to your gutter needs!
When your gutters are unprotected, they can become clogged with leaves, branches, and other debris. When this happens, water cannot easily flow through them, which can cause ice dams and other damage. Your gutters are supposed to facilitate the draining of water, not disrupt it! If gutters are blocked, heavy rain, ice, and melting snow can wreak havoc on your home.
The Leaf Slugger™ water management system takes advantage of water adhesion to direct rain away from your roof and into your gutters. A permanent and comprehensive solution, this system helps you avoid the disastrous consequences that clogged gutters can have. | http://www.leafslugger.com/ | 2013-05-18T10:30:51 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Parents’ Guide to Surviving Tournament Day
by Thomas Butler
Hello Potomac Elite parents, I wanted to give you some information that I hope will be helpful to you in the upcoming volleyball season. If you know what to expect, it can help you prepare, and more thoroughly enjoy the game and experience.My daughter has played travel volleyball for 3 seasons with Potomac Elite Volleyball Club. In those 3 seasons, I have learned some things about tournament days that I wanted to pass along to help you and your family enjoy your tournament day experience. You can also use this as a checklist of items to make sure you pack and bring to the tournaments.Have a TEAM mom/dad prepare a list of foods for parents to bring to the tournament for specific days. We have found it easier for each parent to make a large to medium dish and share it among the players, families, and the Coaches. Find out who on the team has food allergies and what they are. Also bring a lot of snack bars and put them in the girls backpacks. Please don’t forget food and water for the coaches. The turnaround time between games (or working another game) can be short or very long without advanced notice since it is determined on the outcome of the games as the day unfolds. Sometimes there will not be time to run out and get food. Rolling coolers are the best. The walk from the parking lot to where we might be set up could be a long haul for a heavy cooler with no wheels.
We do not yell at the referees or the line judges. The referees will make mistakes because they are also learning. Sometimes we are lucky enough to have paid head referees, but mostly it will be other teams refereeing. We can groan amongst ourselves, but please let the coach handle any problems.
I hope this helps you know what to expect as we enter the season. If you have any questions please feel free to send me an email at TMCB333@gmail.com. If I can’t answer the question I will find someone that can.Have a great Volleyball Season!! | http://www.leaguelineup.com/information.asp?cmenuid=2&url=potomacelite | 2013-05-18T11:03:07 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Happy Confederate History Month
Southern California native George Allen finally made it to the big screen in the 2003 film 'Gods and Generals'
“Our new government is founded upon exactly the opposite idea; its foundations are laid, its cornerstone rests, upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery subordination to the superior race is his natural and normal condition.”
– Vice President of the Confederacy, Alexander Hamilton Stephens
Stephens was considered a “moderate” among secessionists and was known for his generosity and intellect. His “Cornerstone Speech” was delivered in 1861 soon after he was elected Vice-President of the Confederate States of America and co-authored the government’s constitution.

Same Day Surgery, also known as Outpatient Surgery or Ambulatory Surgery, allows you to go home on the same day that you have a surgical procedure.
With improved technology and advances in anesthesia and pain control, many less invasive surgical procedures are now being performed on an outpatient basis.
For our patients the advantages of outpatient surgery include:
- Convenience:
The convenience of recovering in your home generally makes recovery time quicker and easier than an in-hospital stay.
- Lower cost:
Since there are no hospital room charges, and related hospital charges, costs can be.We have found most patients prefer to recover in their homes rather than in the hospital.
- Scheduling is more predictable:
In a hospital setting, emergency surgeries and procedures can delay scheduled surgeries. An outpatient setting can generally stay within a set schedule. Outpatient surgical procedures are usually planned in advance to allow patient and the clinical staff to be prepared and there are less interuptions to the planned schedule. | http://www.leememorial.org/services/surgery/ambulatory_surgery/index.asp | 2013-05-18T10:53:15 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Summary
Histоricаlly, consumer related disputes were non-arbitrable due to the unequal bargaining powers of the parties; consumers were often presented as weaker parties. The aforementioned views have been revised since then and no longer hold in the modern and arbitration friendly legal systems. Pursuant to the legislation of Lithuania consumer related claims are inarbitrable. The said situation will change once the proposed amendments of the Law on Commercial Arbitration of the Republic of Lithuania are adopted. However, some safeguards have been established in national arbitration laws in order to protect consumers. The article discusses whether the aforementioned safeguards are reasonable. Moreover, the work makes some recommendations regarding the prospect of arbitrability of consumer related claims in Lithuania. | http://www.leidykla.eu/en/journals/law/law-2011-vol-81/kozubovska-b-arguable-aspects-of-arbitrability-of-consumer-related-claims/ | 2013-05-18T10:53:39 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Retail%.
Spring and record temperatures accelerated apparel sales. Compared to last March, the category rose 8% with nearly $9M worth of apparel sold at retail. Sportswear, accounting for 77% of apparel dollars, totaled $7M, an increase of 9% over last March. Unfortunately, those record temperatures dropped outerwear and base layer dollars 18% and 5%, respectively.
Nearly all categories contributed double-digit dollar growth to the $16M in March accessory sales. Dollars gained 19% with a modest 3% drop in ARSP taking some of the punch out of a 23% unit gain.

Record. Filming for the documentary began on-location in Baltimore, Maryland during the summer of 2010. Streissguth and students spent long hours together for weeks on end, working hard to capture the best footage of Lee in his natural environment. They later rummaged through that content, putting the pieces together to create the phenomenal final product that is now Record Paradise. Streissguth and student Luke Baker worked closely on the editing process. “I didn’t know him that well going into the shooting of Record Paradise, but you spend enough hours in the car with someone you get to know them,” says Baker. Back in New York, the two edited video footage together every Monday, though come noon, it was time for lunch. The duo hunted down the best burrito joints in the city of Syracuse. The winner? Wegmans. Although hours of hard work were dedicated to the success of this project, the crew did find time to take a break, relax and hang out with the quirky Joe Lee. Stories were shared, skills were perfected and friendships formed, while these students became part of something huge for the Le Moyne community, part of a new kind of family. The Buffalo Niagara Film Festival and the Memphis International Music and Film Festival selected the film for screening in April 2012. Dolphins are smart. Dolphins are creative. Dolphins are filmmakers. Dolphins are FAMILY. | http://www.lemoyne.edu/LeMoyne101/Dolphinsare/TheMakingofRecordParadise/tabid/2976/Default.aspx | 2013-05-18T10:52:46 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
“We want to thank you for the terrific work you and your exceptional team provided, We love our new kitchen, office and mud room! Lensis is in a class by itself!” S.B., Centreville
“I just wanted to thank you personally for holding my hand and making me happy. I personally will recommend you to everyone I know.” G.B., Fairfax
.” K.M., Haymarket
“It was a great pleasure working with you and your carpenters. We have, and will continue to recommend your company in the future to all of our friends and neighbors for their construction needs. You and your employees have really made this project a positive experience.” T.R., Haymarket
“Richard Lensis worked with us through several stages of planning and design, was willing to help us modify our budget to fit our needs, and he, his wife, and staff were all very responsive throughout the process. They got started right on time at the end of June, and finished up right on schedule: in time for me to go back to school (I’m a teacher). Every step of the way, they did beautiful, professional work. The payment schedule was very reasonable, and made planning simple. They were happy to let us handle demolition and painting to save money, and there were no surprises at any stage of the project. They even hung the cabinets I refinished from the kitchen in the addition. Richard was also able to put us in contact with a great HVAC company to handle our new furnace and central air unit.”
“I remember coming home to installed cabinets one day and telling the workmen, “Oh… you are just my favorite people today!” I absolutely love my new kitchen…the remodel has made the ENTIRE first floor more functional.” K.A., Manassas
“We really enjoyed working with you this past year. We are very pleased with everything and will pass your name on to any potential customers.” C.G., Fairfax Station
“Here we are, all done! We very much appreciate your patience in the beginning — all the drawings! And the excellent staff and subs made this project as smooth as an addition could ever be, I suspect. We are thrilled with the result and pleased to have had your company be our contractor.” J.S., Oakton
“Your work is super in all aspects — all my expectations were met and actually exceeded. I would highly recommend you to anyone.” A.L., Clifton
“I am extremely pleased with all of the work that was done by Richard and the Lensis team while remodeling my kitchen. Richard came out to my house several times to discuss floor plans and specifications. The project arrangements were handled very efficiently, and my new kitchen is beautiful! I will always recommend you to anyone.” L.S., Centreville
Hi, Laura,
Yes, indeed, it all looks terrific. I am very pleased and I’m sure Ellen will be, too. Could you do me a favor and thank everyone again for us. They all worked hard and worked smart. Skilled professionals, all. And, of course, thanks to you and the Lensis’ as well. Great planning, great scheduling, great products. It all came together perfectly.
You might want to mail us some of your business cards. We have plenty of people that will be interested in utilizing your services. The Shavers might be return customers, too. Ellen is smirking at my bathroom.
Mike
I am so excited about our new kitchen! It turned out to be exactly what I had envisioned-warm and welcoming but still exquisite with lots of bells and whistles. We actually had three different designers come up with a plan. All were nice, but this design really popped out, addressing a few problem areas in our previous kitchen layout that I wanted to change-location of the major appliances, comfortable work space and a balanced, sophisticated look while maintaining the traditional feel of our house, not a transplanted showroom. The Lensis Builders team took extraordinary steps to meet our needs from start to finish. Measurements were checked and re-checked, cabinets were ordered and received along with floor tiles and appliances before any demolition began in order to minimize construction time. Minor issues such as missing molding pieces were dealt with swiftly and efficiently. The most impressive thing, though, was the personal service we received. The kitchen designer, Stacy Lensis, accompanied me to the tile store, twice, to assist with floor and backsplash selections. She accompanied me to the lighting store to look at the chandeliers and pendants, to see what I liked. She came with me twice to look at and choose the granite. All our questions and concerns were addressed immediately. These things were above what we expected, but it was the type of service that made us feel like our kitchen was as important to our contractor as it was to us. We had heard so many horror stories of people remodeling their kitchen, but our experience was all positive. And the result speaks for itself!

Coalition of Organizations Call on Haiti to Prosecute Jean-Claude Duvalier
As organizations concerned with human rights in Haiti, we call on the Government of Haiti to immediately take steps to investigate and prosecute Jean-Claude Duvalier for human rights violations committed during his 1971-86 rule of Haiti. Scores of human rights investigations, legal cases, victim testimonies, and in-depth reports provide ample evidence to commence formal proceedings against Jean-Claude Duvalier. While the primary responsibility to investigate and prosecute Duvalier rests squarely with the Government of Haiti, we call on the international community to provide all needed assistance to enable Haiti to fully and promptly investigate and prosecute him. Given the fragile state of Haiti’s infrastructure following the January 12, 2010 earthquake and the current cholera and electoral crises, significant international assistance may be needed.

With all the **** happening in my country,with money problems,stupid politics and coruption everywhere,SPORT is the only thing we Slovenians can be proud of and happy!
WE WILL PLAY USA, Russia and Slovakia in the group phase.
Robert Kristan (our best goalie of all times) was incredible again,made 29 saves Vs Belorussia (4:2 win) and yesterday with 32 saves was our best player alongside 2goals scorer David Rodman. Denmark outshot us 33:29,but we were better team,missed some big chances to decide the game earlier. National team coach is Matjaz Kopitar,father of Anze Kopitar. Anze and Jan Mursak were missed,but we managed to achieve this big goal anyway. We have only 6 hockey halls and now 1 professional club,2 million people - but we are sportnation with heart like the ocean
Team that achieved this miracle on ice
Goalies : KRISTAN the legend, A.Hocevar, L.Gracnar (maybe will be NHL drafted..)
Defense : Gregorc, Robar, A.Kranjc, Tavzelj, Pavlin, K.Pretnar, Kovacevic
Forwards : R.Ticar, Jeglic, Sabolic, David Rodman, Marcel Rodman, T.Razingar, Music, J.Urbas, Z.Pance, G.Kopitar,
Basic, R.Pajic, B.Golicic
Coaches : M.Kopitar and assistant coach Nik Zupancic | http://www.letsgopens.com/scripts/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=2308977 | 2013-05-18T10:13:09 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

After being introduced today as a Yankee, Sabathia trotted out the usual jackass trope: "When it came down to it, really thinking about what I wanted, having the chance to win every year. That's something that I talk about all the time. That's the bottom line for me. There really was no other place to go."
No other place to go? There were plenty of other places to go, highly competitive teams that will fight the good fight to get to the postseason, that will compete for a championship.
What C.C. is really saying: "I want to have the postseason gift-wrapped like a special gift for me, every single year. I don't want to have to compete for it and earn it."
The Brewers and Indians will compete for the postseason. Every player will have to kick and scratch. The Yankees will not compete; they'll just buy it.
A real competitor doesn't want to win with unfair advantage; he wants to compete on a level playing field. Star players don't go to the Yankees to "compete," they're going there for the loaded dice — and for the cash, of course. They don't want to have to earn postseason berths; they want titles handed to them on a silver platter. They don't want to get paid to get to the playoffs, they want to get paid to go to the playoffs.
There were plenty of places to go, but only one place where Sabathia wouldn't have to compete fairly. He will just be handed a certain measure of success, one befitting a player of his (ahem) stature..

Thanks, it would take forever for me to go through all 228 of these pages, even though eventually I probably will.

Well, I went through the four discs that I had on me plus this computer.
I'll go through some more when I get back home.
Sorry.
I do know that I have them though!
It's just finding them again.
I went through every page before I ever posted anything in here.
I believe that someone posted a link for the bikini top pics, but I can't remember who it was.

Why else would he put a bikini top on and leave it on?
Unless he's a little weird.

I don't remember that pic, but I have noticed his eyes before.
I used to have your avatar for my desktop. I don't think I even have it on my computer anymore.
Stanley cup ones, not the little sweaty ones.
I wouldn't mind if some of the Wings wanted to pose in bikini tops.
At least you could get some good belly shots.
I must be getting desperate.
Sounds like Pat's set for a little while.
Hi Amanda!

Not really. What he's saying isn't against forum rules. Your last couple posts however, have been (I deleted one).
You guys can disagree without the insults.
Fair enough except without the bulls***. You have any say in the matter? You watch any MJ hockey or D-I hockey? Honestly I don't care if you removed a post of mine.
Fair enough. Like Jonhnster9999 you probably watch no D-I hockey or MJ hockey. Cool...
