Skip to comments.Attorneys for Allen West say they have proof of voting discrepancies
Posted on 11/16/2012 10:49:37 AM PST by Uncle Chip
ST. LUCIE COUNTY -- Attorneys for Allen West said late Thursday they had discovered possible discrepancies after a review of early and absentee ballot information. Nearly 1,000 votes may be in question, according to Tim Edson, Allen West for Congress campaign manager.
In a letter to Secretary of State Ken Detzner, attorneys said 110 early votes were cast in a precinct that didn't have enough early voters to support the number of votes cast.
Four hundred eighty-eight people cast early votes in precinct 28, they said, but election returns showed 499 early votes were counted.
Attorneys also raised concerns about 121 voters they said had returned absentee ballots but did not appear to have been assigned precinct.
West has refused to concede the race for the 18th Congressional district despite trailing Patrick Murphy, his Democratic challenger, by approximately 1,900 votes -- more than the .5% margin that would trigger an automatic recount.
Earlier, volunteer attorneys for West petitioned Detzner to conduct a preliminary investigation into the election and for a machine recount in three counties.
In a letter to Detzner, attorneys Mark Young and Jeffrey Scott Shapiro said 809 votes disappeared when the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections retabulated the final three days of early votes on Sunday.
Young and Shapiro said the missing votes, which accounted for 3.2% of the retabulated votes, amounted to an irregularity.
After the retabulation, West received a net increase of 535 votes over Murphy.

thanks Onyx fro the ping, .
Good for him, if only we had more of the Col, Sarah etc.
If anyone has 2 minutes then please call the FL Gov at 850) 488-7146 and tell them to order an investigation into this please.
Allen West is one of the few Republicans who is prepared for the future.
Why do I say "the future?" Because most Republicans now work with a political economy that automatically puts them at a disadvantage. Republicans can not "out-organize" socialists, nor can we "out-compassion" those willing to spend to the limit borrowed or printed money.
This will not last. The root of the Dems power is the debt-based economy, and many Republicans play along with it. Yet $1.2 Trillion deficits can not last. There will be change forced on us.
I believe West will still be around when that radical change happens.
What? Doesn't he know that all votes should automatically go for a democrat even if cast for a normal person? Just remember all those years of slavery! And those evil Republicans just want to send the poor out in the streets to starve and die.
Liberal Palm Beach Post calls for recount in Allen West race
"After admitting such an egregious error, Ms. Walker wants the public to trust her when she says the problems were limited to those last three days of early voting. But she has given voters little reason for confidence. In an abundance of caution, St. Lucie County needs to recount all 37,000 early votes, not just the ones that Ms. Walker believes were problematic."
Onyx...could you plz add me to your West ping list. Praying for his success (and HE should be Speaker of the House!)
Thanks. Watching now.
Question for anyone: Has John Fund weighed in on any of these issues? He is supposedly one of the biggest experts on vote fraud.
Praying this is NOT a liberal judge!
Now we just have to look at the voter fraud that took place for obama over Romney.
This is the full article that Mitt Romney tweeted about:
(see above)
These elections are NOT certified yet. The only way to get this investigated, much less recounted or overturned, is through the Secretary of State of each of the five key states: Florida, Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. EVEN IF YOU ARE IN ANOTHER STATE you can help. But it wont do any good to dilute our effort to challenge California or Michigan or other states. Until a major group gets involved to do more, here is the plan:
Contact the Secretary of State of the state in question. (See contact information below. Please provide others in COMMENTS.)
Send them the press clippings, or personal testimonials of clear vote fraud witnessed. (Statistical aberrations are helpful too like a historical 50% turnout in 2004, 2008 but a 90% turnout in a specific precinct despite an overall LOWER state turnout.)
Demand a public recount AND investigation, with a commitment to fight to replace THEM in the next election if they do not do so.
Email/Phone/Visit EVERY WEEK if not EVERY DAY. This will take weeks of steady pressure to get them to move.
Get your friends and neighbors to do the same.
Contact the OTHER 4 states to do the same as above.
Contact the Governor and the local GOP office with the SAME pressure.
(List of web contacts for each below)
If you are in those states (or know people who are) start attempting to find OTHERS with evidence of fraud. See if you can identify the precinct judges where the statistical aberations occur to pass along to the True the Vote which is set up to sue these entities with Judicial Watch.
Try to visit (or call) your local representative asking for their help to put pressure on. It doesnt hurt that if they dont or wont you make it your goal to find and fund a challenger to them for allow open and honest elections the fabric of freedom in this country to not only go unchallenged, but to institutionalized.
Contact your city, state and national media to keep this story alive as well. (Fox News has an email just for this at firstname.lastname@example.com)
Help us find, fund or coordinate willing lawyers, statisticians, pollsters and activists.
I can not reiterate enough that if this is NOT CHALLENGED NOW, we will could loose the House of Representatives in 2014 and possibly every election forward to massive voter fraud. Imagine Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi reenacting the first two years of Obamas reign with more Stimulus, Cash for Cars, Solyndras and ObamaCares.
This fight can not be put off for another election cycle or another day. Or there will no longer be a constitutional America. Put down your foot and make the declaration, THIS VOTE FRAUD WILL NOT STAND!

Attorney's for Murphy want to run out the clock and say West should come back after votes are certified — yeh right!!!
Attorneys for West said that the SoE agreed to count all the 37,000 and then didn't. She should be compelled to do what she agreed to do.
Court in recess. Judge considering the testimony.
For once, our side seems to be playing "hard-ball," which is very long over-due.
William Flax
I am on your Sarah ping list, but didn't know there was one for Allen West. Please add me :) Thanks!
mailing them all now, hopefully thers are as well and then if we apply the pressure we can get justice for our system, this election and for the veteran who has earned my respect on so many levels
After all the disappoints of the last couple of weeks, it's good to see that we still have a man willing to stand up, fight and do the right thing.
Crowds began to emerge around 11 a.m. in front of the St. Lucie County courthouse to express support for Congressman Allen Wests call for a complete recount in the Congressional District 18 race.
The West supporters were confronted by a half dozen protesters that said that West does not support them and that do not want to pay for a recount.
I'm having a hard time hearing the judge.
Democrat judge?
Hello, Jane, If you are there at the court house, maybe you can start whispering "Athens, Tennessee 1947" to every one. Just go up and down the hallway.
What is this judge's name again??? Is this Jim Crow???
The Battle of Athens....I hear ya!
any update?
Not voter Fraud -- no, there's no FRAUD there!!
Praise God, Col. Allen West and his lawyers!
He was denied by the court.
He will have to wait until after the votes are certified to challenge them.
The St Lucie Board is meeting right now among other things to decide whether to recount the 37,000 as they originally agreed to. Little chance of that.
Mitt Romney did not tweet about this article. @PlanetRomney is not Mitt Romney, it's a Romney supporter (likewise, the "Sarah Palin" tweets you cite in your post are also not by Palin).
ah thank you, corruption at it;s finest by the left.

Volleyball Cooperation Programme tastes success in NigerNiamey, Niger, April 1, 2010 - The first FIVB Volleyball Cooperation Programme (VCP) Grassroots for 2010 was completed in Niger on Wednesday with participants learning the basics of Beach Volleyball in one of the most remote venues for the FIVB VCP.
"Even when things get tough in certain countries, the Volleyball Cooperation Programme delivers, even in a situation which some might consider almost impossible," FIVB Technical and Development Director Mr. Helgi Thorsteinsson said. "This is the daily situation for the FIVB and we have learned to adopt our programme towards this reality."
Instructor Mr. André Trottier from Canada was equally impressed with the success and reach of the FIVB VCP following the completion of the course which ran from March 27-31.
"I don't think one can be more remote from the FIVB SWATCH FIVB World Tour than giving a course in Niger," Mr Trottier said referring to the FIVB's professional Beach Volleyball circuit. "This was for sure an unforgettable experience.
"The President of the Niger Volleyball Federation Mr. Sidiyane Amada and his Federation were so nice, dedicated and passionate. The course ran very smoothly and after seeing the reaction of the candidates you can see a good impression was made."

Brought to you by Steve Strauss
April 2011
Write It Right
I once had a job in a law firm where all of the junior lawyers had to take a legal writing class once a week. I struggled to learn the firm's style which was, like the firm, formal, dry, and boring. In the end, I was fired because I was told that I didn't write well enough (right before my first book was published - ha!)
It was a fortuitous experience, however, as being fired forced me to start my own business (a law firm) and that in turn changed my life; voila! Here I am fortunate enough to writing about business to you today.
But I must confess that I was indeed not the greatest legal writer around. I had a hard time confining what I wanted to say into the structures dictated by precedent and expectations. I have had far more success and enjoyment writing about business. But even in business I find too many people who think there are writing Rules that Must Be Followed.
There are, but they may not be the ones that you think. So here then are my Top 4 Rules for effective business writing, whether it be for a brochure, a proposal, a business plan, a blog, or whatever.
Rule No. 1: Check the Jargon at the Door. Lawyers love Latin, because, among other reasons, they think that Latin makes them sound smarter than everyone else. What they don't realize is that it usually just makes them sound arrogant.
Business people also can fall into the same trap, only we use jargon instead of Latin in an attempt to impress. For example, how many times have you read or heard about someone wanting to "interface" when what they really mean is talk? Or what about something like the "need to leverage investments in our IT infrastructure to drive profits." What does "leverage" in that sentence really mean? You got me. The worst culprits are words that have been bastardized: Actionable, incentivize, operationalize, and so on.
Jargon sometimes has its place, but too often it is simply used as a lazy shortcut that adds nothing to the synergy of the point. See?
Rule No. 2: Keep It Simple: Of course your writing sometimes has to be complicated, but more often than not, if you want people to understand what you are trying to say, simplicity carries the day.
Think about it. When someone is reading your business writing, they have no idea where it is going or what the point is. The easier you make it for them to understand, the better. Here's an example of how to do it wrong:
"The SonicBlast Millennium Co. takes the latest in state-of-the-art communication technologies and 24-bit encrypted software and uses them to create a world-class safety infrastructure. The top-down value proposition for you is that your communications management systems and internal proprietary processes will be more secure."
"The SonicBlast Millennium Co. safeguards communications. 100% guaranteed"
Rule No. 3: Writing is Re-writing: I always tell my kids that "writing is re-writing." They don't like it, but it's true. Good writing, especially good business writing, usually requires a few drafts before it is easy to understand, interesting, and carries a punch.
Rule No. 4: Make it Snappy, Pappy! The greatest sin in business writing, yet the easiest one to commit, is to be boring. But your business writing need not be boring. In fact, the more you use your creativity, the more interesting it is for your biz, the more memorable your writing will be, and the better results you will get.
Protecting Trade Secrets
The very nature of a small business is that employees learn a lot about your business, for instance, the names and contact information of your best customers, what they pay, and what they need and want for starters.
Not a few employees have parlayed that knowledge into their own business by taking valuable customers with them when they go off on their own. For the employer, it can be a devastating set back. But this potentially devastating loss can be avoided if you take proper precautions.
First some background: Certain confidential information that you have, and that employees may learn while employed at your place of business, is sometimes considered a "trade secret." That is, it is legally protected, private information.
Specifically, a trade secret is an "idea, formula, pattern, process, or compilation of information that provides you with a competitive advantage and which is kept private."
The key to protecting your trade secrets is to inform employees about what you consider them to be and the way to do that is to have employees sign one or several agreements. Ideally, they will sign such agreements as part of your hiring process, but even if you have never had employees sign such agreements, you should consider having current employees do so too.
(Note: The following is general information. The rules in your particular state may vary and you should check with your lawyer to see what the laws in your particular state are.)
A Non-Solicitation Agreement: This contract forbids ex-employees from soliciting your customers or employees. While it would allow a former employee to go to work for a competitor, it would forbid them from soliciting your current clients before or after they do so.
While an actual ban on allowing an employee to take a job with a competitor is often unenforceable (called a "non-compete" agreement), a tightly-crafted non-solicitation agreement may do the trick.
A Non-Disclosure Agreement: Also known as an NDA, this contract states that during the course of their employment with you, staff may learn confidential information and that they promise not to use that information or share it with anyone without your permission for, say, five years. NDAs are probably the best way to protect the integrity of your confidential trade secret information. They are in wide use and typically upheld by courts.
In addition, it is important that you make a substantial effort to keep your trade secrets secret. If you don't make efforts to keep them confidential, don't expect an employee or court to treat them that way either.
Trade secrets are enforced both in both civil and criminal courts. Civilly, each state has enacted a version of the Uniform Trade Secrets Act, and getting an injunction preventing someone from using your trade secrets is the first step under that law. In addition, theft of a trade secret may be a crime, both under individual state laws, and well as under the federal Economic Espionage Act of 1996. Make sure your employees know about these laws, and more importantly, make sure they know that you know about them.
Employment Contracts
So the question of the day is, do you need an employment contract for your staff members? I say the answer is yes. It only makes sense. When you hire people, there are typically several forms and contracts you need to fill out, including of course your W-2s. Let me suggest that a well-crafted employment agreement should be near the top of the list, but only if you draft it right.
Here's why: Almost all employees are considered "at will" - this means they can be fired at any time for any legal reason (i.e., you cannot fire someone because of the race, religion, etc., but almost all non-discriminatory reasons are OK.) A poorly drafted employment contract has the ability however to change someone from an at-will employee to a "cause" employee, meaning you must have a valid cause to fire him or her.
Therefore it is critical that the contract state clearly and boldly words to the effect that "nothing in this agreement is intended to guarantee employment or alter the fact that [name of the employee] is an at-will employee." Once you do that, the document can certainly help clarify your relationship with the employee, while also being an important defense in any future litigation; it is hard for an employee to sue you for wrongful termination when he signed his name to a contract stating he knows he was at-will.
The agreement could also cover:
- Compensation: This section details the employee's base salary, and benchmarks for bonuses or commissions.
- Job Description: Here, you explain in detail what is expected of the employee, his hours, duties, sales quotas, everything. Be expansive and explain that other responsibilities may be added later on.
- Benefits: Your benefits package should be explained. You should reserve the right to change the benefit plan.
- Stock Options: If you offer stock options as part of your benefits or incentive program, the process by which they are attained and exercised needs to be explained.
- Arbitration: Litigation is expensive, and many employers have mandatory arbitration clauses in their employment agreements.
- Immigration Status: The employee needs to verify that he or she is a citizen of the U.S., or has the proper work visa.
Both you and your employee need to sign the contract, and you should keep a signed copy in a safe and secure place.
You should also consider having an employee handbook that explains important policies and procedures, such as workplace safety, anti-discrimination policies, anti-sexual harassment policies, how complaints are handled, discipline, sick leave, and vacation policies. This handbook should also reiterate that employees are considered at-will. Have the employee sign a document stating that he received a copy of the handbook. All in all, I think it is almost always best to put agreements in writing.
Selling a Business
One thing small business owners like to noodle on once they become successful is their so-called 'exit strategy' - that is, what will they do with the business once it is time to move on Options abound: Close the doors, give it to a child, and of course, sell it.
If that last option intrigues you, let me suggest that you begin by reading a great book written by a colleague of mine, John Warrillow, called Build to Sell. In it, John explains the various hoops you need to jump through in order to create a business that others want to buy and then how to do it.
Beyond that, by way of primer, when it comes to selling a business I think that there are basically three questions to consider:
- What does the business own? A business that has invested a lot of money over the years in assets is obviously more valuable than a business that has not. Assets can take many forms. Of course they cover things like trucks and equipment, but also must take into account valuable contracts, intellectual property rights, and goodwill (i.e., the reputation that the business has in the community.)
Sellers tend to overvalue goodwill and buyers tend to undervalue it. The important thing then is to realistically calculate the value of the name and brand of the business.
- How much does the business earn? Again, the same principle applies - a business that makes a profit of $100,000 a year is much more valuable than one that nets $35,000.
- Are there any intangibles to consider? What makes the business unique, profitable? Do you have a great location, a favorable lease, great employees, a long-term contract? These are the last things to consider.
These three items are then taken into account and used to determine the value of your business and there are essentially three ways to go about doing so. The first is called price building. The second method is called return on investment. The third is the multiplier.
Price building is a valuation method that simply looks at the hard facts - assets, goodwill, leases, real estate, etc. Essentially what you do here is list every asset and give it a reasonable dollar value. For example, yours might look like this:
- Real estate: $150,000
- Equipment: $15,000
- Inventory: $25,000
- Goodwill: $10,000
- Total value of the business: $200,000
Return on investment (ROI) looks at the business profit, per year, to help the buyer see what the return on his investment will likely be. For example, let's say that you decide that $200,000 is the asking price. Is that fair? Using the ROI method we would see that:
- Net profit: $100,000
- Business sale price: $200,000
- Return on investment ($100,000/$200,000): 50%
Using this method, and these numbers, the buyer would be making out like a bandit, getting a 50% return on his investment. There are few investments out there that allow a 50% ROI. Thus, a higher amount for the business is probably in order.
The last method is the multiplier. Here you would again look at the net profit, but you would then multiply it by some factor - it varies depending upon the industry - to get a final price. A factor of 3 would result in a $300,000 asking price. Of course, the battle is what that factor should be.
Another option is to simply hire a business appraiser. Though you will pay one a decent commission, it may be worth it to ensure that you get a fair price.

Strategic Planning
Greek Orthodox churches have looked to the Office of Parish Development for Strategic Planning assistance when they have found themselves facing challenging circumstances, such as:
seeking more involvement from parishioners,
aiming to reconnect with "missing" parishioners,
needing clear direction for the near future or the long term.
What is Strategic Planning?
Strategic planning is a management tool that helps us do a better job. It determines the best way to respond to challenging circumstances in an organization's (in this case, a parish's) environment. Strategic Planning will help to secure a "preferred future."
What are the key principles of Strategic Planning?
Strategic Planning leads to action, builds a shared vision, and is an inclusive, participatory process. It is both internally and externally focused, and requires an openness to question the "status quo."
What will result from Strategic Planning efforts?
Strategic Planning will identify and prioritize goals, both for the short-term and the long-term. It will shape and guide what the parish does, and clarify why it does it. It enables a parish to actively pursue specific, identified goals as opposed to reacting or merely drifting.
How can we get started?
Contact the Office of Parish Development staff to discuss the particular needs of your parish and the specific ways the Office can be of help to you. If you wish to share the Strategic Planning concept with parish leadership, you may choose to use this Strategic Planning brochure.
Expanding Stewardship
All parishes are at slightly different points in growing in stewardship. In the important work of encouraging individual stewards to stretch themselves further in giving back to God through the Church, no one strategy will work for all parishes. The Office of Parish Development can help your parish to improve its current stewardship practices in a variety of ways, such as:
Assessing current practices and offering new techniques.
Serving as a guest speaker on the subject of stewardship.
Conducting a Parish Stewardship Workshop tailored to your parish's unique needs.
Guiding your stewardship committee in implementing techniques over several months.
Raising Funds for Capital Improvement
A capital campaign—a fundraising effort to pay for major new developments, such as new church buildings, expanded community centers, etc.—certainly presents new challenges for any parish. A fundraising campaign can benefit in many ways by using outside, expert fundraising assistance. The Office of Parish Development can create and implement a strategy for your parish including several key steps, such as:
Conducting a planning study, which projects fundraising potential and identifies potential opportunities and challenges for the project to come. A planning study provides this feedback as it identifies the right steps to take to maximize the campaign's effectiveness.
Assisting with the planning for a future campaign.
Coaching and guiding the capital campaign, especially through its important first few months.
Helping to determine how best to carry the campaign to a successful, God-pleasing conclusion.
Planned GIving and Parish Endowments
On the day we take our last breath in this life, we all have the ability to make one of the most significant gifts of our lives. By obtaining critical information, all of us as can plan ahead and make arrangements to leave assets accumulated over our lives as lasting gifts consistent with our lives' goals. The Office of Parish Development can help enable parishes extend the opportunity to parishioners to give in this fashion by:
Guiding the establishment of a parish endowment to be used for funding a specific project, new development, or some aspect of ministry or outreach in the parish.
Speaking with individuals and groups within the community, presenting this opportunity and guiding parishioners to begin to plan early.
Coaching parish leadership on the ongoing work of holding conversations on planned giving in our relationships with parishioners of all walks of life.
Seeking Grants for Parish Programs
Ongoing operating costs within our parishes, as well as most specific project costs, normally must be afforded through the giving of individuals within the parish, perhaps supplemented by a few non-parishioners with close ties or an interest in the project. However, grants from private foundations or, on occasion, government sources might be available to supplement giving from parishioners for certain types of projects. Examples might include: outreach and humanitarian relief programs, renovations of historic church buildings, projects for handicap accessibility for churches, and parochial school programs. The Office of Parish Development offers guidance throughout the process of seeking grants for such work, including:
Assessing parish projects and programs to determine which might qualify for grant funding.
Prospect research—seeking grant makers who are a good "fit" for your parish project.
Writing high-quality grant proposals hand-in-hand with your parish or ministry leadership.
For a list of grant opportunities for parishes, including clergy sabbatical programs, go to Grants.
Other Fundraising Guidance
From time to time, parishes feel the need to ask an objective, professional opinion about some aspect of fundraising, and often it is difficult to decide to whom to turn for guidance. One good source of information is often the Office of Parish Development! Clergy and lay leadership alike should feel free to contact us, even for a short brainstorming session over the phone or email, as we hope to provide as much assistance to parishes in the Archdiocese as possible. Some of the questions that have been brought to us in the past include:
"We are thinking about starting a day school. How can we be sure that we can afford it?"
"Our building project is only a pipe dream to us at present. What should we be doing now to begin to prepare to build our church in the more remote future?"
"We are a small mission parish. How do we build ministries while our 'base' of stewards is transient and our stewardship is moderate, on average?"
"Our renovation fundraising has yet to begin. When do we start: after we have concrete cost projections, or before?"

Yeah just because Itachi says/thinks Madara is invincible, that doesn't make it so. Maybe in Itachi's eyes he is.
My Guess is that Madara messed pretty bad with Itachi's head when he was seven (or so), and Itachi has a Madara God-father comlex. No doubt Madara is unique and really powerful, but in the end the Konoha gang will defeat him (so much for invincibility).

Gather up ties and stakes and secure anything that's in a state of collapse, such as tomatoes, beans and grapes.
Save for later
Learn how to dry or freeze produce that you can't eat. Slow-roasted tomatoes will keep well packed in oil, while courgettes and beans are easy to freeze. Check out old family recipe books for chutney and relish recipes.
Rotate crop
Keep planting lettuces on a weekly or fortnightly rotation depending on how much you eat. Use them when they're small and plant more.
Eat it or bin it
Pick up your windfall fruit to discourage bugs. Use it, or consign it to the compost bin.

Nice ShineI do like this product. You can feel the difference. My hair does have a nice shine. I thought it would make my hair less kinky and wavy, but it was still the same. But after I blew it out it looked nice. I still had to use a flat iron to get that smooth straight look though. Not sure if I'd buy again. I was hoping I wouldn't have to blow it out or use my flat iron with this. Not the case. But overall it gives a nice shine...but than again so does using a flat iron.Apr 3, 2013CindyHAIR TYPELight Brown / Fine or Thin Hair

GreatI use product as directed. Was surprised to find something that worked as advertised. I found for my extremely fine and colored treated hair it gave more body and brought color back to life.
I am very disappointed in the fact that I need more and have been to four retail stores and they have not had it on the shelves with other John Frieda products.

Love ItI really liked the way this product smelled, and how soft and shiny it made my hair look. I actually saw this product on Oprah as a good way to maintain color shine in between colorings.Nov 11, 2010THAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

Abosutely amazing! This makes your hair super soft and feels like each strand of hair has a smooth protective layer over it. The first day I overdid the product in a three minute session. I put too much of the product at my roots and as a result my hair looked greasy pretty fast. However, Ive since evened it out across my hair and focused on the tips every other day as not to over do things. Its a wonderful product!Jul 21, 2009Barbie

Loved these sandals!
"These shoes were really cute and fit true to size. I wore them on vacation and the sole is thick enough to walk in without hurting my feet. The color was really pretty (I bought the pewter)."

Love these!!!
"I ordered these sandals just recently and I absolutely love them! The gold is such a nice color, and I haven't experienced any rubbing against my ankles when I wear them. I am usually between size 6.5-7, but there were only 6.5 left, so I ordered that size and I'm so glad I did, because the 6.5 is perfect! Lovely shoes; can dress up or down. Summer, here I come! : )"

Bedsores are caused by pressure against the skin that limits blood flow to the skin and nearby tissues. Other factors related to limited mobility can make the skin vulnerable to damage and contribute to the development of pressure sores. Three primary contributing factors are:
Sustained pressure. When your skin and the underlying tissues are trapped between bone and a surface such as a wheelchair or a bed, the pressure may be greater than the pressure of the blood flowing in the tiny vessels (capillaries) that deliver oxygen and other nutrients to tissues. Without these essential nutrients, skin cells and tissues are damaged and may eventually die.
This kind of pressure tends to happen in areas that aren't well-padded with muscle or fat and that lie over a bone, such as your spine, tailbone, shoulder blades, hips, heels and elbows.

Did You Know? Countdown to Purim (02/22)
Did You Know?
Facts, Figures & Folklore About the Jewish Holiday of Purim
Feb 22 : 05 days till Purim
Did you know that Purim is one of the most joyous holidays in the Jewish religion?
So joyous, in fact, that the rabbis have actually commanded adults to get drunk on the holiday of Purim.
Indeed, Jewish law commands that Purim revelers get so intoxicated that they can't tell the difference between the names of the hero of the Purim story, Mordechai, and its villain, Haman.
The most festive of Jewish holidays, Purim is a time of noisemakers, costumes and tasty treats. The Festival of Purim commemorates a major victory over oppression and is recounted in the Megillah, the scroll of the story of Esther. Purim begins at sundown on Saturday the 27th of February.
We'll be presenting a new "Did You Know?" fun fact each day as we countdown to Purim! So stop by again tomorrow.

super cute shoes
"i saw these at the local dsw and had to buy them, i loved them so much. they look cuter in person and are very comfortable. i think it is a must buy although i have to warn you that these are very narrow. i usually wear a size 6 but i had to buy a size 7 for these shoes. also they tend to crease on the sides if they dont fit you properly. so my suggestion is buy them in the store. Other than that i absolutely love them and got lots of compliments :)"

Classy shoe for Narrow feet
"I first saw this shoe online and went to try it on at my local DSW. I generally wear an 8 and have long, narrow feet. The narrow tip and ankle straps insure that I don't slide around, but my toes are not cramped. I walked around my house (hardwood floors) and on stairs. They felt comfortable. I wish there was a tan/taupe color too!!!"

On 2016-08-02, Global Brass and Copper Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:BRSS) updated dividend disbursement of $0.038 a share for record date 2016-08-12. The dividend release date is 2016-08-24 while ex-dividend date is 2016-08-10.
During bearish stock market, dividend-paying firms tend to endure the storm significantly better than firms that don't disburse dividends. While dividend-compensating equities decline in an inclusive bearish market, they don't commonly suffer like the overall street average. During the financial crisis in 2008, while the market average drop for stocks of firms not paying dividends was nearly 45%, dividend-paying firms only decline 38% on average. The gap was even greater in the 2002 recession, when dividend-paying firms decline by just 10%, compared to non-dividend-paying firms, which decline an average of 30%. At that time, investments in dividend-paying firms offered a big cushion against losses for shareholders.
Last year, Global Brass and Copper Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:BRSS) paid a total of $0.038 per share in disbursement. This numeral was $0.038 a share in the analogous period last year indicating deviation of 0%.
Analysts have forecasted target of $34.5 based on 2 calls. The positive and bearish forecasts are $38 and $31, correspondingly.
With application of mathematical rating, Global Brass and Copper Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:BRSS) score came at 1. For period ending on 2016-09-30 quarterly earnings can be revealed around 2016-11-07. While for the period ending on 2016-09-30, the projected EPS is $0.82.
Companies' performance is evaluated by their ability to outshine street expectations. All participants track whether firms "hit their consensus", in other words, can firms manage to surpass analysts' consensus forecasts. Knowing the significance of those projections can help investors cope up with the volatility during quarterly earnings results.
While shareholder's investment decision shouldn't be prejudiced too profoundly on whether firms meet, beat or miss the Street's estimates, it's useful keeping a track on how firms' earnings figures perform against quarterly forecasts.
Global Brass and Copper Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:BRSS) recorded EPS of $0.35 for the quarter ending on 2015-12-31. The analysts' estimate was $0.62, demonstrating a miss of $-0.27 as against posted EPS.

12 Relaxing Paint Colors We Want In Our Homes
Flat finish is also known as matte finish and has the least amount of shine. Because it doesn't reflect light, it's the best choice to hide any imperfections like bumps or small cracks on walls. It also goes on smoother over rough surfaces, so it's a good option for textured walls. Keep in mind, flat paint a little harder to keep clean, so it's not recommended for high traffic areas like the kitchen or bathroom.
You can't really go wrong with eggshell finish on your walls. Sometimes called satin finish, eggshell has slightly more luster than a flat finish, but you won't be left with shiny walls. It also resists stains better than flat and can be wiped with a wet rag. Eggshell finishes are often used in bathrooms, kitchens, kids' rooms, and other high-traffic areas.

A compact camera equipped with a 46 MP image sensor, (that's right, forty-six!)
Sigma has implanted the Foveon X3 imaging sensor featured in their D1 and D2 cameras into their new compact camera, the DP3 Merrill.
Recognising light of different colours penetrate silicon to different depths, the sensor captures all primary RGB colours "at each and every pixel location" over three different layers to ensure "the capture of full and complete colour."
Sigma believes the absence of moiré eliminates the need for a low-pass filter and, combined with their Dual TRUE II image processing engine, the DP3 Merrill produces images distinguished by supreme tonal gradation.
The understated compact camera features a 50mm f/2.8 optic capable of a focal range equivalent to 75mm on a 35mm SLR. It has an ISO range of ISO 100 to ISO 6400 and a lens ring can be used to manually focus images; however, it features an 'easy to use' 9 point autofocus mode.
A large memory buffer enables the Foveon X3 Merrill to capture 7 RAW images continuously at 4 frames per second. These photos can be recorded in JPEG format or RAW and JPEG simultaneously.
Although fluent in capturing still images, videos are captured at a limp VGA (640-by-480) resolution.
The understated camera features a 3 inch TFT LCD monitor that has a 920,000 pixel resolution and it stores files on its SD (SDXC) compatible memory card.
Sigma has yet to reveal the Foveon X3 Merrill's local pricing and availability.

Okay, made the recommended changes (reset to +5v via 10kOhm resistor and putting resistor in series with LED) and attached new pic. I thought the crystal was hooked up properly, though - I've got the crystal across X1-X2, then a 22pF cap to ground from X1 and X2 as well. Is that incorrect? Should be able to see what I'm talking about in the new photo. How should this be hooked up if that's what I did wrong?Still getting the same behavior - LED stays lit up and never blinks. Thoughts?
