In February mobile traffic to Grainger hit 10% of total web traffic, the merchant reports.
Bill Siwicki
Mobile traffic to W.W. Grainger Inc. in February hit 10% of total web traffic, the hardware, building maintenance and office supplies chain retailer reports. What's more, Grainger research reveals that 50% of its customers spend most of their time working away from a desk on a job site or shop floor, making them prime candidates for mobile commerce.
The retailer launched its mobile commerce web site in November 2011, its iPhone app in May 2012 and its Android app in June 2012. It declines to reveal mobile sales, but it is No. 76 in the Internet Retailer Mobile 400 with Internet Retailer-estimated 2012 m-commerce sales of $16.7 million.
Grainger built everything in its mobile channel in-house with some app development help from m-commerce site builder and mobile app developer Solstice Mobile.
"Grainger developed everything from inception of concept to building out 36-month road maps, we designed in-house, staffed up our own development team to do both mobile work and a lot of the back-end API integration work," says Geoff Robertson, vice president of e-commerce strategy and planning. "When it came to Solstice, we brought them in for some architectural expertise that helped kick-start development so we could accelerate speed to market."
Grainger research and customer feedback show a high demand for mobile commerce, Robertson says.
"We're seeing the demand from our customers, and mobile helps fulfill Grainger's value proposition of a fast, easy and personal way to buy products," Robertson says. "As our customers keep looking to use the mobile device to complete their work, we continue to staff up the team to continually fulfill the uses customers are requesting."
Grainger has noticed through analytics and customer research that customers use the m-commerce site differently from how they use the smartphone apps. Mobile site users are searching for products; the site has a conversion rate lower than the desktop site and mobile apps, but higher traffic than the apps, Grainger reports. The apps are used by repeat customers, loyal consumers who are willing to give Grainger a piece of their mobile screen real estate; consequently, the conversion rate for apps is up to eight times higher than for the m-commerce site but a bit lower than the rate for the desktop site, Grainger says.
There are two primary uses for the mobile apps—one by workers in the field and another by staff in the back office, Robertson explains.
"Customers in the field, the guys on the roof, the guy fixing HVAC units, they frequently have need to order products," he says. "They would pick up the phone and call back to the office and say, 'I need this hammer or light bulb' and spend a lot of time describing the exact product they are looking for, and the person on the other end is looking through the catalog. So the field technician is now e-mailing a product from the mobile store to the back office or placing an order and putting it into workflow."
That's where the second use comes in. Mobile commerce ties the person in the field together with the back-office workflow required to get an order approved in many businesses or government agencies.
"When this tech wants a light bulb and places an order, it can go into our order management system, where the person in the office can approve or reject that order," Robertson says. "So what we're finding is not only are those techs working out in the field away from their desks, but the person who approves orders is away from his desk. We see many examples of businesses where they thought the workflow process was too long, and they found they could cut two to four hours out of the order process with mobile commerce because that approving person was just away from their computer."
So the staff member responsible for approving purchases can do so through the app from wherever they may be at the time. Once approved and purchased, the order goes back to the field worker, who uses the app's GPS to find the nearest Grainger location and pick that product up in-store. The mobile app indicates which branches are closest to them and gives them directions.
It's this kind of use of mobile that has caused Grainger to begin some research into the offline impact of m-commerce. The mobile commerce site conversion rate may be low, for example, but is the site serving as a research tool for customers who later make purchases in stores? The answer is yes, Grainger says, but it hasn't completed its research yet to determine just how much of an impact mobile is having on store sales.
Grainger would not disclose what it cost to build the app, but mobile experts say apps of Grainger's caliber can cost between $50,000 and $250,000.
When it comes to how it works, the Grainger app has a couple features that make the app stand out. The first is a three-step tour of the app. This launches the first time an app user opens the app.
"That feature is trying to make the mobile experience as easy as possible and let customers know their mobile experience is integrated with the Grainger.com experience," says Michael Cooney, senior product manager for mobile. "It's the same user ID and password as on the full site, the same shipping and payment information from the desktop site is waiting for them in mobile. The tour familiarizes customers with the app so they can dive right into the experience prepared to get the job done."
Another stand-out feature in the Grainger app is voice recognition technology for search, enabling a user to speak the term he's searching for into his phone. Grainger uses voice technology from Nuance, which it says works across all mobile platforms. "This is about making it easier for our customer when they are on the go," Cooney says. "Sometimes our customer may have a Grainger catalog or a product in one hand and the phone in the other, plus, it can be difficult typing on a phone compared with on a full site. It's much faster to do a voice search than type it on a keyboard. We wanted to minimize touches and typing since they have their tools in their hands. We wanted to get the design as close to one-thumb as possible."
Grainger declines to reveal how much it pays for the voice service. Nuance says a basic version of its automated speech recognition technology is free and more robust offerings cost up to $3,000, a one-time fee.

Can you believe it: 99,123 taxpayers are due a refund averaging $1,547. All totaled, that's $153,000,000. The IRS says these checks could not be delivered because of mailing address errors.
If you believe your refund check may have been returned to the IRS as undelivered, you should use the "Where's My Refund?" tool on IRS.gov. This tool will provide the status of your refund and, in some cases, instruction on how to resolve delivery problems.
If you prefer to check on a refund over the phone, you will receive instructions on how to update your address. You can access a telephone version of "Where's My Refund?" by calling 800-829-1954.
While only a small percentage of checks mailed out by the IRS are returned as undelivered, you can put an end to lost, stolen or undelivered checks by choosing direct deposit when you file either paper or electronic returns. Last year, more than 78.4 million taxpayers chose to receive their refund through direct deposit. You can receive refunds directly into your bank account, split a tax refund into two or three financial accounts or even by a savings bond.
Next year professional tax return prepares that prepare more than 10 returns will be required to electronically file those returns. It is also recommended that if you prepare you own return, you should also electronically file your return. E-file eliminates the risk of lost paper returns, reduces errors on tax returns and speeds up your refund. Nearly eight out of 10 taxpayers chose to e-file last year. E-file combined the direct deposit is the best option for taxpayers to avoid refund problems; it's easy, fast and safe.
One last note: The IRS will never contact you by e-mail to alert you of a pending refund and does not ask for person or financial information through email. These messages are common phishing scams. The agency urges taxpayers receiving such messages not to release any personal information, reply, open any attachments or click on any links to avoid malicious code that can infect your computer. The best way for you to verify if you have a pending refund is going directly to IRS.gov and using the "Where's My Refund?" tool.

The Most Delicious Watermelon Recipes For Summer
Just months after printing its first issue, in 1926, the Big Bend Sentinel consolidated with an older paper, one whose name presaged its hometown's unlikely second life: Marfa New Era.
After World War II, the decade-long "Drought of Record" dried up the land, and much of the town's social life with it. Giant was filmed here in 1955; years passed without further incident. Then, in 1972, came art world-weary minimalist sculptor Donald Judd, who (with the Dia Foundation footing the bill) bought half the town, becoming its biggest employer.
Unsurprisingly, then, the Sentinel is flanked by Judd holdings, and its stark interior is furnished in the master's style. A framed topographic map of Texas is at once handy reference and objet d'art. On the front page, culture shares column inches with immigration and the drug war, along with whatever celebrity gossip falls into the paper's lap.
A young reader with a fresh copy of The Big Bend Sentinel.
Character/actor Randy Quaid and his wife Evi came to Marfa in 2009, selecting a building on North Highland Street, across from the Sentinel, as the site of the future Randy Quaid Museum. (Like Judd before him, Quaid was seduced.) When the couple was arrested for nonpayment of hotel bills, the story got picked up by all the major entertainment news outlets. But the Sentinel snagged the exclusive — soberly headlining it: "Evi Quaid tells all, mostly."

LFR7 - Game 7 - Reims Gone Wild - Min 1, Toro 4
Steve Dangle
October 16 2013 12:25PM
Hey - a win's a win, right?
Dope-Ass Links
I hear what your saying about being outshot. But at the end of the day, it IS all about quality chances, and that is the big difference with Carlyle. That wasn't exactly the case last night, because we gave up 2 breakaways which hasn't been happening very often since Carlyle came in as coach. But in the past, if Wilson was coach and we gave up 37 shots, it wouldn't matter if it was Reimer or Bernier, there would be 4 or 5 goals against. The reason was because of bad penalty killing, and giving up odd man breaks or breakaways. Not giving up those high percentage chances, and nothing in the slot or close to the net is the reason we can give up allot of shots and keep winning (like i said this game is a bad example, cause we did give up 2 breakaways). That combined with a great power play can win you games (again another bad example, cause the goalie we faced was terrible, but there is a good chance we still could've won this game 2-1 even with a better opposing goalie).
thats my take on the whole issue. And Carlyle was right in saying they have to be better, but hes going to say that regardless. In this case its the absolute truth, but on most nights when we're outshot & win, we actually played our gameplan well, didn't give up great quality chances. Carlyle is always going to say we didnt do well, we need to improve, BECAUSE he doesn't want his players to get complacents, he always wants them to think they can do much better & keep improving (cause they can, but likely not as much as hes making it sound)

good video.
October 16 2013, 04:14PM
great vid.... as the season progresses its going to be interesting to see if the Leafs can tighten the screws as will many other teams. Lets face it, every team is a bit loosy goosy right now, but only the good teams will get their game together... we should see this happening in about 10 games or so... Leafs will or will not, the are no exception. To do this, I don't see any big challenges up front, we have lots of talent there, maybe not the primo-super-star-talent other teams gave but we got more depth of talent than many two teams combined. My fear: defense. I love both Reilly and Gardiner, but not both at once, one raw guy at a time please. And much as I love Dion (on his good days), he is not consistent enough, certainly not enough to lead the other guys (if Dion can do that why cant I???)... I would die for a couple super solid stay at homes who can steady the d troops a bit. I dont like saying this, but send Rielly down but do it right, swallow the $ and send him where he belongs: the Marlies.
BTW Steve although you are the only video guy i watch regularly you are funny and smart but your Spanish sucks... can you say Muchas (not muchos) gracias... Later

Green River is the site for the new Epicenter. This stands for the Economic Progress Instigation Center. A Grand Opening was held during Melon Days in Green River. Festivities begin at 6 pm with a ribbon cutting ceremony with Mayor Pat Brady, an open house, and live music on into the night. Many supporters along with many other Epicenter founders, allies, friends, and family were on hand for the celebration. The Grand Opening celebrates the end of a year-long renovation of 180 South Broadway, a historic 105-year-old building, into the Epicenter office.
The Epicenter is a community-based affordable housing, small business resource, and cultural center. This three-pronged focus is achieved through
creating affordable, durable, and efficient housing, supporting entrepreneurs and small business development, partnering with allied organizations, and instigating events that encourage activity in Green River.
The members of the Epicrew value the positive effects of collaboration, community participation, local solutions, and working with their hands. Epicenter believes in socially responsible design for businesses, families, and individuals in Green River. They believe in positive activism in their community, working collaboratively with community partners, and developing relationships with the residents they serve. Epicenter is a leader in providing environmentally responsive, socially appropriate, and economically beneficial design solutions that improve quality of life.
The Epicenter will also serve as a welcome area for the passengers who are catching the train and disembarking the train in Green River. In the past train passengers didn't have any type of waiting area. Now they will be able to walk to the Epicenter on Broadway.
The Epicenter will continue to write grants and hold fund raisers as they work to bring about their goals for Green River residents. Chief among these goals is the process of developing affordable housing for Green River residents. The Epicenter will work with the Department of Agriculture on the development of homes where those who are working towards home ownership will work on their home as well as other homes as a type of sweat equity and investment towards their future.
The Epicenter secured a grant from the United States Department of Agriculture Rural Development for $88,800. This money has been used for the renovation of the building and funds are left over for the operating fees for one year. Since the Epicenter was established 30 families have applied for the affordable housing programs and the HEAT program. These applicants have attended home ownership and financial literacy courses and have been educated on individual development accounts. The Epicenter also serves as a satellite office for the Habitat for Humanity. Another hat the Epicenter is wearing is a design/marketing office for local business. They offer financial and business planning for businesses along with the BEAR program which is the Business Expansion and Retention Program. Three businesses so far have been helped by the design marketing and business planning at the Epicenter. With the new building to act as a hub for all these activities the Epicenter will continue to grow and expand services for the citizens of Green River.
As Green River moves into the future, it remembers its past as the remodeling of the Epicenter building is part of a movement to restore Broadway and bring in new businesses as well as support the current businesses on the street. Green River has a rich and varied past and the Epicenter building has been a part of Green River since its construction in 1904.
The building served as a hardware store where the black sign on the south side read: "Merriell-Bolinger Lbr. Co., HARDWARE, Stoves, tents, wagons, buggies, wire paint, oil, and glass"
At one point in time a warehouse used to adjoin the rear of the building.
At some point in time the central heating system (fireplace) was updated to a coal furnace, located in the basement close to the front. At this time, a new fireplace was built approximately along the north wall, and the old one was removed. All new ducting was installed. The old heating grate was removed and the flooring in-filled. It is assumed the coal storage was at this time built in the basement, with a light well remodeled into a coal chute on the south side for the supply.
At some point in the buildings history, the facade and entry was removed and replaced. Originally, the front had an indention into the facade which served as the covered entry, and the door was set back three feet into the building. The building now has an all glass front.
After the building's use as a hardware store it became the Charles Spadafora Billiard Hall; the sign which can still be read today said, "BILLIARD ROOM, TOBACCO, CIGARS/CANDY, COLD DRINKS, ICE CREAM".
At one-time the building served as a Grocery Store and an amusement Hall for the general public. Other uses have included: 1950s: Tony Spadafora's Paradise Club; 1960s: Pat's Bar; holes were cut into the floor for bar accoutrement to reach the refrigerator added in the basement; late 1960s (6 mos. duration): Youth club operated by Ben Coomer; 1970s: plumbing supply store; 1980s: owned by Rita Jukes and used for storage of potato chips distribution business.
From 1985 until now the building has sat vacant. The building was owned by Glenn and Jo Baxter and plans for it to be an art studio never developed. The Baxters sold the building to the Epicenter.
This renovation project was necessary to keep the building from falling into complete disrepair. The repair of the roof and the foundation wall was necessary to prevent the building from further deterioration and eventual collapse. The building has been vacant for 15 years but now the renovation project has breathed new life into the historic building.
Saving this building from eventual demise is in the spirit of Broadway revitalization and will maintain the last of a few buildings still existing on Broadway. The renovated building will maintain the character of the old building, and necessary updates have been made in the spirit of the building while capitalizing on the technologies and materials of the modern era.
If you would like more information on the Epicenter and its activities call 435-381-3330.

Virgin Blue Signs Long Term Adelaide Airport Lease05/02/2004
More Low Fare Flights For South Australians
Virgin Blue Airlines today formally signed an agreement with Adelaide Airport, detailing its long term plans to operate out of its own dedicated domestic terminal and agreeing to collect the PFC (Passenger Facility Charge) to help fund the construction of the proposed new Multi User Integrated Terminal.
The low fare airline is the first to formally sign off on its entire suite of documents, following months of negotiating.
Virgin Blue Chief Executive, Brett Godfrey, joined Premier John Olsen and Adelaide Airport CEO, Phil Baker, in the official signing at Adelaide airport today.
"An agreement of this magnitude takes time, negotiation and careful consideration and we are satisfied that the outcome will allow for both the airport upgrade project to go ahead, while ensuring Virgin Blue is still able to maintain low air fares for the people of South Australia", said Brett Godfrey.
Under the agreement, Qantas and Ansett will operate out of the new facility, while Virgin Blue will shift from the current International terminal to the existing Qantas Domestic terminal.
The move will benefit Virgin Blue guests by providing increased space and enhanced facilities and will also provide Virgin Blue with more tarmac space to allow for increased flights.
Brett Godfrey continued, "Virgin Blue is looking forward to having its own facility at Adelaide which will allow us to operate an efficient hubbing operation and encourage growth in terms of frequencies and new services to further cater to the travelling needs of South Australian's.
Since Virgin Blue began operating almost 12 months ago, the number of people flying domestically has increased up to 70% on some routes. We appreciate the assistance of both Adelaide Airport and the SA Government in working with us to ensure an economically viable agreement for all parties involved", he finished.
Virgin Blue currently flies direct between Adelaide and Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne.
Virgin Blue operates the most modern, technologically advanced aircraft in Australia today, with an average age of less than 5 years, compared with Ansett's average fleet age of 11.7 years and Qantas with an average fleet age of 10.8 years. (Salomon Smith Barney 2001 Fleet handbook)

"My daughter needed sneakers to wear to pre-school, so I wanted a pair that she would love and that would match with everything. These fit the bill! I also love that they tie, because I was able to go up a 1/2 size and they stay on her feet. I can't say how comfortable they are since I'm not the one wearing them, but she has no complaints."

Facial duplication is also known as diprosopus. The word "diprosopus" comes from the Greek "di-," two and "prosopon," face and means "two-faced".
Two-faced conjoined twins have almost complete fusion of their bodies with one set of limbs with part or all of the face duplicated. The condition usually results in stillbirth, but not always as seen in this recent news report of this little girl born March 11, 2008.
Dr. Kotrikova (1st reference) writes that the "first description of a double face was mentioned in the chapter The Miracles of the Far East from Jacob van Maerlant's manuscript The History of Troyes dated approximately 1270. In the sixteenth century, Jacob Rueff, a barber surgeon, published in his Manual for Midwives woodcarvings of infants with lesser degrees of twinning, including diprosopus."
However, a New York Times article by William Honan published in August 2000 states that the ancient two-faced Mexican figurines known as the "pretty ladies of Tlatilco" are now thought to represent diprosopus. It is believed these early Mesoamerican figurines may, in fact, be "the oldest scientifically medical images in world history." Sculpted over a period of 500 years beginning in 1200 BC, these little statues show diprosopus with two faces side by side. This degree of accuracy in documenting the anatomical and pathological features of a human head does not appear for another two millennia until the 16th-century studies of Hans Baldung Grien and Andreas Vesalius who did anatomical drawings based on dissected cadavers.
Children with craniofacial abnormalities such as diprosopus are characterized by a single body and a variety of duplications of craniofacial structures. These children may have four separate eyes (diprosopus tetraophthalmus) or fusion of the medial eyes. Two, three, or four ears may be present. Some have only partial or complete doubling of the nose (diprosopus dirrhinus).
The prevalence of conjoined twins (Siamese twins) is reported to be between one in 2800 and one in 200,000 deliveries. The prevalence of diprosopus is reported to be one in 15,000,000.
Conjoined twins are classified according to their symmetry, site of fusion, and degree of duplication. The most frequent type of conjoined twins is thoracopagus (32.7 percent) and the rarest type is diprosopus (0.4 percent).
Cardiac malformations (ventral septal defect, transposition of major arteries) represent the most common congenital abnormalities. The esophagus, stomach, and intestines may be duplicated. Where there are more severe associated anomalies, the prognosis is poor.

Very HappySo I have natural 4c hair with at least 70% shrinkage. I wasn't sure if I'd ever be able to straighten my hair but this straightener did the trick. I was going to buy a chi cause that is all I have ever heard about, but after reading the reviews on this solia I thought I'd give it a try. I was also tempted by the prize (which I find reasonable) and it's cute pink color (i could not resist). When I first tried the product, I'm not going to lie, I was upset. I did not get the amazing results that I thought I would, but turns out it was all my fault. With my hair type, there is no way that 140F would do the trick. So after pumping up the heat, I finally achieved greatness!! My hair did not feel burnt but smooth instead. It also easily rolled off the straightener's plates instead of sticking to it. Needless to say I LOVE this straightener. It does an amazing job every time and NY hair stays straightened for a couple of days also and then I can use the 140F setting to touch it up.
Maintenance is a little harder though. The color I love so much is easily stained so deg cleean it after each use.Jun 5, 2015Solia Pink Limited Edition Flat Iron (1"...HAIR TYPEBlack / Normal Hair / Curly Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

Strong As A Tank!!!I've had this flatiron for 9 years, 9!! I can't kill this thing. Having 'Shirley Temple' curly hair, straightening it was always a chore... that never worked. This flatiron, coupled with a good heat spray is magic. It's super easy to clean, the cord never tangles, and the adjustable heat is great. You'd think it was made with unicorns. No joke. Do yourself and your curly hair a favor and buy it! You won't be sorry.Sep 25, 2014Solia Pink Limited Edition Flat Iron (1"...HAIR TYPEBlonde / Curly Hair

An Amazing Flat Iron For An Amazing Price!I've been through many flat irons and none of them delivered as well as the Solia. Seriously, I have NOTHING bad to say about this flat iron! I just received it today and have already tried it out and it did wonders for my hair! I have natural 3A/3B hair but last night I did a touch up relaxer because I'm about to get a sew-in Saturday morning for school. It arrived quickly and nicely packaged. One thing I loved most about the Solia was how I could control my temperature. My hair currently is very dry at the ends because of months without getting a trim (my fault) so I needed a flat iron that had a controllable heat setting so I wouldn't do any further damage to my hair. Before I was previously using a CERAMIC COATING flat iron from Remington and it was already set at a extremely high heat setting. It also was burning off my hair because of the uneven heated plates (some parts were completely burned). The Solia however, did wonders for my ends! I added some heat serum to my hair and ran the iron over it and my hair was completely soft, smooth, and silky with just running it through ONCE! It doesn't pull or burn my hair like some people have said in their reviews. It heats up very fast and its PINK which is a plus because I don't like boring flat irons lol. The two year warranty is great too! This is my first time using a ceramic tourmaline iron and because of the price and quality of this flat iron I am never going back to any other company! Definitely Recommend to any and everyone looking for a good iron to invest in!Aug 21, 2014Solia Pink Limited Edition Flat Iron (1"...HAIR TYPEDark Brown / Normal Hair / Dry Hair / Relaxed Hair / Chemically Treated Hair

Its A KeeperI recently cut my hair shorter, like about 12 inches shorter. I had been using the 1-3/4" Sedu flatiron, which I LOVE, but needed one with smaller plates to accommodate my shorter do. I decided to get the Babyliss and a Solia to try. The Babyliss was the more expensive of the two. Verdict: its ok. it seemed to heat up quickly and straightened my hair just fine. The problem I found was that even when I turned the temp down the outside of the iron got so hot that I couldn't use it without burning my fingers. I tried the Solia next and after I could compare I decided that I would be sending the Babyliss back. Solia was great at a fraction of the cost. Heats up quickly, plates are smooth, straightens very well. Rating all of the flatirons I've used, I would put them in the following order (1st choice=1st listed): Sedu, Solia, Chi, Babyliss. Hope this helps someone make a decision :)Jun 13, 2014Solia Pink Limited Edition Flat Iron (1"...HAIR TYPELight Brown / Curly Hair / Color Treated Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Sedu Was BetterMy hair is curly and frizzy and I used to have a sedu which worked great until one day it just didn't heat up anymore after the warranty just ended. Since sedus have are more expensive now I decided to give this straightner a try.
This supposedly gets up to 450 degrees but I don't know if that's true or if this straightner just isn't good because when my Sedu was set to 450 it would straighten much faster as well as be hot within minutes. This straightner requires you to hold it clamped on your hair longer and several passes, but this may be because it's slow to heat up and hasn't reached 450 by the time I attempt to use it. Since the temperature is supposedly 450 I don't like holding it in one place for more than a couple seconds.
Pros: Price is reasonable if you use a coupon code which is why I didn't return it. Temperature control
Ability to get to 450 if true (which I'm skeptical about)
Cons: Doesn't heat up as fast/as much as I'd like

Which is the best iPhone deal?
With 14 January officially named as Vodafone iPhone day, there's suddenly bags of choice for anyone looking to get that religious experience that only the Jesus phone can supply. The question on most lips though is "Where do I go to get the best deal?".
Naturally, the word "best" has a number of connotations and it'll mean something different for everyone reading this, so let's split it into some sections here.
What's the cheapest way to get an iPhone?
iPhone 3G 8GB - £462
Tesco Mobile offers the least damage to your wallet here with a pay monthly deal made up of £222 on the 8GB handset, and £20 a month for a year. That includes unlimited web access and £60 worth of calls and texts per month, which works out at as little as 300 minutes and zero texts and the real bonus that it's on a 12-month contract.
iPhone 3GS 16GB - £560
Tesco Mobile again with the same deal as above, but this time the handset is £320 on the identical short contract and minutes plan.
iPhone 3GS 32GB - £647
As above but £407 for the maximum storage version
What's the cheapest monthly payment?
Well, once again, it's Tesco that take the honours here with the other providers only offering £30 per month minimum on any of the handsets. The £20 a month deals above are the best you'll get for keeping the regular payments down.
What's the cheapest initial outlay?
iPhone 3G - Orange
Orange offers the cheapest best monthly cost of £30 for 2 years if you want a free iPhone 3G. That gives you 150 minutes and 250 texts to play with for a total of £720.
iPhone 3GS 16GB - O2
Orange and O2 offer a free phone if you sign up for their 1200 minutes, 500 texts package at £45/month for 2 years. That totals £1080. With Orange's data package set at 750MB compared to O2's slightly obscure "fair usage", you'd probably do best to opt with the latter.
iPhone 3GS 32GB - Vodafone
If you want the big one for free and at the best overall price, then head over to Vodafone and sign up for the £80 per month package over 1.5 years. You get 3000 minutes and unlimited texts and it totals at £1440
What's the best value offer?
This time it's really down to personal choice. The aim of the game, of course, is not to go outside your price plan while taking into account the total cost of the phone, the length of contract and getting enough calls, texts and data to last you the time. There are buckets to choose from but the ones for us are:
iPhone 3G - Tesco Mobile £20 per month £462
It's the cheapest and probably the best choice if you're going for the lowest spec of the three. As an owner of the oldest model, there's a good chance you'll develop 4th generation iPhone envy when the next version comes out in the summer. So, what's particularly good here is that it's a nice short contract and a very cheap deal. If you want to upgrade to the new one, then you won't have to wait too long. The downside is that you only get £60 of credit each month, but if your priority was power using, then you probably wouldn't be buying the old 3G.
iPhone 3GS - Vodafone £40 per month £809 or £899
If you're plumping for the 3GS, then, in a way, it's not such a bad time to buy. Go for an 18-month contract. First, it's cheaper and second, the 5th generation iPhone will be coming out just about the time your contract's up. Just hope that number four isn't the bee's knees. Vodafone offers a nice broad package. £40 per month may seem a little harder than the £35s from Orange and O2, but you get unlimited texts to back up the 600 minutes, plus it actually works out marginally cheaper. You're also likely to get better reception too.
There's not a lot of leverage on making deals with your network because of Apple controlling the prices, but we thought we'd try all the same. We got out of contract customers to call up O2, Vodafone and Orange to see if we could squeeze a better deal out of them on threatening to leave.
After claiming the Palm Pre was a better handset and we were going to switch to O2 to get it, the salesmen offered our customer a £5 discount on the £40 per month for 1.5-year tariff on the 16GB iPhone 3GS. On a second call, we were informed by another operator that this was a misquote and that £40 per month was the fixed price, but we'd suggest it's still worth a try for any Vodafone customers out of contract.
Orange said that there are no offers on the iPhone because the prices are controlled by Apple, so the cited monthly rates and deals stay the same, even for long term customers. The cost to upgrade would be £189 for the 16GB 3GS on an 18-month plan, or £89 for a 2-year plan.
The salesperson also said that changing handsets could only be done in the last 3 months of the contract. We pushed on whether there would be scope to change the handset and they did say that Orange would have to allow exchanges if there was a new piece of hardware released, but it depended on when it came out – she didn't really know.
Again, there was no luck for our O2 customer, despite all the threats in the book, but any out of contract iPhone customers already with O2 or unlocked iPhone owners are in luck and eligible for the company's Simplicity 20 for iPhone deal offering a 30-day rolling contract for just £20 per month - the perfect way to tread water until Apple WWDC this summer.
We asked the mobile price plan experts at Recombu for a pick of the best iPhone PAYG deals out there. There's a host of special offers from most of the operators with various kinds of bonuses, but the ones that caught their attention were as follows:
Tesco Mobile
For the handset itself, the lowest Tesco will go is £342 for the iPhone 3G 8GB model. If you're planning on topping up around £15 per month you can enjoy triple credit (pay £15, get £45 worth) and you'll also get unlimited Web and Wi-Fi throughout.
For an iPhone 3GS 16GB, you'll need to stump up £440, but you'll get the same triple-credit deal and a better handset.
Orange offers all kinds of animal-themed deals for PAYG customers, so you can enjoy the benefits that suit you for low top-up costs. For example, on the Monkey £10 top-up deal you'll get the 300 free texts, free music access and the £10 of credit that you've bought. Plus, of course, you'll get two for one cinema tickets on Wednesdays.
The outlay for the handset itself on this deal is £343, and you have to top up when you buy – so you're looking at a minimum initial cost of £353. For the iPhone 3GS 16GB model, you have to pay £440 for the hardware with the minimum initial top-up amount of £10. So to buy this iPhone, you'll need £450 in your pocket.
O2 will charge you £342.54 for the iPhone 3G 8GB handset, with a minimum top-up of £10. For the iPhone 3GS 16GB model, you'll pay £440.40 for the handset and the lowest top-up of £10. There are some great deals on top-ups – for example if you top up £10, you'll enjoy 500 free minutes to O2 mobiles and certain landline numbers.
First of all, don't go for any 24 month contracts. They leave you tied up for an age and they cost you more money as well. Vodafone certainly brings a slightly new twist to the dancefloor, but at time of writing, the Tesco deals are probably the most interesting because you'll have to wait for the shortest time before you can upgrade to the one out this summer.
Because there's so many deals out there, the best way to approach it is to work out how many minutes you normally use, just like the old days, and pick the deal closest to that. Vodafone might claim a better network or O2 more data but, at the end of the day, just choose the tariff that suits you best - even if that's just because you happen to get the bonus of Orange Wednesdays.

Yea about time he got it together, but since eiji is #1 they still may have some problems
Hey baby, wanna take a gander at some Adam West penis?
hells yea pcp is back. its weird felling reading it on a Thursday though. thanks scantalaters and raw providers
Great chapter.
Shuujin's back in the game! Hooray for Ashirogi Muto for coming up with something really good in the end.
Manga reading list: Bleach, Naruto, Katekyo Hitman Reborn, One Piece, Code Breaker, Gamaran, Kuroko No Basket, Fairy Tail, The World God Only Knows, Kimi No Iru Machi, Good Ending, Medaka Box, Nisekoi, D.Gray-Man, Ao No Exorcist, Freezing, Magi - Labyrinth of Magic, Soul Eater, Rosario Vampire Season II, Iris Zero, Ubell Blatt, Bloody Cross, Sun-Ken Rock, and Infinite Stratos,
AWESOME! Third place! If Eiji did take the first, does that mean OP is 2nd?
Again we see both Mashiro and Takagi at their best - maybe, not as mangaka, but definately as characters. Them having the same idea was probably the highest moment of the chapter. And Shujin's shouting "Dammit" actually made me think otherwise, so the surprise worked for me.
Also, lol at the jogging gang - only Hiramaru, underslept, in his home clothes, is trying to get away from Yoshida, and nobody notices Eiji making his move.
Yeah, I wouldn't have noticed Eiji if you hadn't mentioned him

13 I make a decree, that all they of the people of Israel, and of his priests and Levites, in my realm, which are minded of their own freewill to go up to Jerusalem, go with thee.
14 Forasmuch as thou art sent of the king, and of his seven counsellors, to inquire concerning Judah and Jerusalem, according to the law of thy God which is in thine hand;
15 And to carry the silver and gold, which the king and his counsellors have freely offered unto the God of Israel, whose habitation is in Jerusalem,
16 And all the silver and gold that thou canst find in all the province of Babylon, with the freewill offering of the people, and of the priests, offering willingly for the house of their God which is in Jerusalem:
17 That thou mayest buy speedily with this money bullocks, rams, lambs, with their meat offerings and their drink offerings, and offer them upon the altar of the house of your God which is in Jerusalem.

nice alternate footwear
"my only negative at all for these it that even with the zipper up the back, I really have to loosen the laces to get my foot in and out of them - but once they are on, they are cute and comfy. I walked around all day in warm weather wearing them and it was better structure and support then a summer sandal while being cooler than a boot or heavier leather shoe. -and they have their own sort of style."

Chapter 36
The Assyrians war against Judah and blaspheme the Lord.
1 Now it came to pass in the
2 And the king of Assyria sent
3 Then came forth unto him Eliakim, Hilkiah's son, which was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, Asaph's son, the recorder.
4 ¶And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?
5 I say, sayest thou, (but they are but vain words) I have counsel and strength for war: now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
6 Lo, thou trustest in the staff of this broken
7 But if thou say to me, We trust in the Lord our God: is it not he, whose
8 Now therefore give pledges, I pray thee, to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
9 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
10 And am I now come up without the Lord against this land to destroy it? the Lord said unto me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
11 ¶Then said Eliakim and Shebna and Joah unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, unto thy servants in the
12 ¶But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?
13 Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.
14 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you.
15 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliver us: this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
16 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me: and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his own cistern;
17 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
18 Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, The Lord will deliver us. Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arphad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim? and have they delivered

Why didn't Madara use his Godmode Susano'o? The mask on Kyuubi's face looks like it but it seems much smaller!?
I always thought there was a Senju-mode (to counter the sharingan) but this one seems Hashirama-only. What's their counter jutsu to sharingan then?
Lastly, the statue reminds me of Asuma's bald-friend-no-jutsu & the battle-flashback was too short.

Manziel to Cowboys? How it could impact the Bills
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Apr 23 2014 5:50PM
One of the most interesting facets to the 2014 NFL Draft is where former Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel will be drafted. A polarizing player to college football fans and draft analysts everywhere, there's no stopping the range of opinions on him and his prospects for the pro game.
There is one simple truth with Manziel, however. One team, most likely in the first round, is going to label him as the quarterback of the future regardless of dissenting opinions made about him. There are rumors that Cleveland (4), Oakland (5), Tampa Bay (7) and Minnesota (8) could be interested in drafting him.
So what happens if he is still available past all of those picks?
Here's a news item to chew on if you're a fan of the Buffalo Bills. ESPN's Ed Werder today said that if Manziel was on the board at 16th overall, the Dallas Cowboys could very well take the Texas A&M quarterback.
Adding to that speculation is ProFootballTalk.com, who kicked it up a couple of notches. Mike Florio, who runs the uber popular football website, said that they believe if Manziel gets past Minnesota that the
Cowboys might even trade up to get Manziel
Why would the Cowboys want Manziel with an already competitive roster and a good quarterback? The Jones family appear to be publicly smitten with Manziel, after team
VP Stephen Jones declared that he'd be a star
in the league. Add in the fact that Tony Romo is 34 years old and has had issues with his back, it might not be far off to think the Cowboys could swing for a quarterback.
It's not hard to put two-and-two together to realize what that could mean for the Bills. Buffalo holds the ninth overall selection, one pick removed from that initial quarterback window. They're also ahead of Tennessee, who is also sniffing around the top quarterbacks available in 2014.
If the Cowboys are that interested in Manziel, and he gets past the Vikings at eighth overall, Doug Whaley could be getting a call from Jerry Jones. What would that deal yield for the Bills?
Buffalo would get 16th overall, 47th overall and perhaps one of Dallas's three tradeable seventh round picks. The Bills would be giving up 9th overall and their fourth-round pick, 109th overall. It would give the Bills three picks in the top 47, and four picks in the top 73.
The drawback, of course, is missing out on a player like North Carolina tight end Eric Ebron if the Bills like him as much as he thinks they do. There's a chance he could still be there, but it would be a risk.
Regardless, it's more food for thought and it might give the Bills another option on May 8.

By GARY ARRINGTONStaff Writer
On April 27 there will be an open house for the new Huntington City Fire Station from 3-6 p.m. Ribbon cutting will take place at 3 p.m. The residents of Huntington and anyone interested is invited to stop by and see the new facility. Mayor Hilary Gordon is excited that the construction period is coming to an end and the facility can now be used by emergency personnel to serve the residents.
Also talked about at the April Huntington City Council meeting was the upcoming Heritage Days. The city has scheduled another performer for July 4 in the afternoon under the pavilion. Hypnotist Mont Dutson will put on a show early Wednesday afternoon as soon as the previous act, the band No Limits, has removed its equipment from the stage.
Huntington City is considering removing the fireplace located in the city park and installing bar-b-que grills that would use charcoal in the park. Nobody with the city can actually remember anyone using the fireplace in the last 20 or so years. The item will be discussed again in the May meeting.
Huntington City zoning administrator Gary Arrington presented a parks master plan to the council. The city is looking at developing Green's Grove, a 55-acre piece of ground the city owns located on Center Street at 400 East. Also in the plan are new grandstands for the rodeo grounds and a new concession/kitchen building for the city park that would include new restrooms.
The committee recommended to the city council, and the council agreed, to proceed with funding requests from various agencies and foundations to see if actual development can occur. The city welcomes ideas for the park as the master plan continues being developed. Currently being considered are ponds with a stream connecting, a disc golf course, RV campground, picnic areas, walking paths and other park activity sites.
The city approved four new business licenses. The Miner's Table, a restaurant, JK's Bonbons, a chocolate manufacturer, Wally's tire and Wheel, a tire shop, and Fire Rock Industries, a lump coal business.
The city approved putting cameras at the city parks that would be set off by motions sensors located around the facility that would allow the city to catch vandalism as it occurs.
Construction is also underway in Huntington as 10.5 blocks of sidewalks and eight blocks of curb and gutter are going in. Most of the sidewalks this year are located on the east side of town since the west side saw most of the sidewalk installation last year.

'…the least cost trajectory for stringent mitigation assessed in the [IPCC Fourth Assessment Report] clearly estimated that global emissions should peak no later than 2015 and decline thereafter".
Dr Rajendra Pachauri, Chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
Opening Statement, UNFCCC COP 16, Cancun, Mexico, 29 November 2010
This statement underlies everything Cancun was about.
It was about the efforts of a majority of countries to agree to a second commitment period to extend the Kyoto Protocol passed its expiration date of 31 December 2012 and to begin dealing seriously with the need for deep emissions cuts.
It was about the resistance of a few countries, big greenhouse gas emitters all, to recognize reality and begin serious efforts at curbing their emissions.
And it was about the almost Herculean efforts by the Mexican COP President, Foreign Minister Patricia Espinosa, to make sure that the conference didn't go completely off the rails.
In the end results of Cancun depended on your perspective. One view is that the UN-sponsored negotiating process continues with renewed confidence after the failure to reach agreement in Copenhagen on anything but a non-binding agreement. As Ms Espinosa said at the end of the gruelling all night session that closed the negotiations, hope has been "rekindled".
"'The last 24 hours, what we have seen is no less than a miracle,'" said Maldivian Minister of Environment Mohamed Aslam, whose country of low-lying atolls in the Indian Ocean has led the moral charge for climate action." Quoted in the New York Times, Alsam said the agreement is "'a good one. It has all of the elements we have been wanting. Not in as strong language as we would have liked, but it leaves room for strengthening things next year.'"
Others aren't so sure much progress was made. John Drexhage is with the International Institute for Sustainable Development and a former Canadian climate change negotiator. He was quoted in the Globe and Mail newspaper saying that this agreement actually reinforces the divisions between countries over emissions reductions and how to achieve them. Countries like Canada, Japan and Australia, among others, want to see countries with rapidly developing economies – China, India and Brazil – bound by the same rules that will apply to them. Drexhage says that's not going to happen for a while.
"'I just don't see how we can expect any kind of comprehensive, binding treaty resulting from this,' he said. 'We just have extremely different expectations' among countries."
Missing from the equation is the United States, which hasn't agreed to Kyoto. Drexhage said that country will be "hard-pressed" to meet the reductions to which President Barack Obama committed it in last year's Copenhagen Accord (a 17% cut by 2020).
This effort by developed countries – the ones that have created the climate change crisis through decades of increasing levels of greenhouse gas emissions – all but guarantees that the world is heading away from the "least cost trajectory" Dr. Pachauri referred to in his opening statement to the COP. And it ignores the economic analysis of short- and long-term costs in Sir Nicholas Stern's analysis of 2007.
Much of the real struggle has been deferred to Durban next year, and to the negotiating sessions that will lead up to it. However, there were a couple of surprises. One was the agreement to set up a new fund – with a goal of $100 Billion a year from 2020 – to protect forests, share clean technologies and help vulnerable nations and people to adapt.
This fund doesn't include the Arctic, which is once again not mentioned in the final texts or singled out as a vulnerable region in need of special assistance. There are a number of reasons for this, but most nations feel the Arctic is the responsibility of the wealthy industrialized nations in which it is located. Adaptation assistance needs to come from those governments, it is argued, especially since most of them are responsible for the high greenhouse gas emissions that have caused the problem in the first place.
The following highlights of the Cancun agreement are taken from the UNEP website:
Full copies of all the decision texts are on the UNFCCC website.
New funding for climate change adaptation agreed at COP 16 does not include the Arctic. Pictured here, an abandoned home near the coast in Shishmaref, Alaska (credit: Lawrence Hislop).

First one to the computer gets it! :)
That's understandable. Your grandkids get first dibs on the computer. You have it the rest of the time. That's only fair. Now all you have to do is see who get it first!
I'm glad now you can talk to whomever is on here! Looking forward to talking with you more now that you have it set up like that!
Good morning, Big Sister! That e-mail idea isn't bad at all!
It's always good to talk with you no matter when it is! Have fun!
You have a great evening, too! How was your workout?
Hopefully, the man who built our computer is coming tomorrow morning to check it out. I'll definitely talk to you sometime tomorrow.
And you as my big Sister!
May God continually bless you, my big sister!
It's great to have you as part of our family, too!
It's always nice to have an extended family!
That's true. I wish some others knew that.
You will have to rub him down first!! Then maybe he would return the favor
I wish I could get it that often, but, money is tight, Russell and I work out together and he tries to massage my back, but, I will leave it at that!!! LOL We are actively bike riding now

First Baptist Church, Huntsville, AL
Monday, February 27, 2017
A Historic Church Looks Forward
When the First Baptist Church of Huntsville was formed more than 200 years ago, there wasn't a Huntsville and there wasn't an Alabama.
First Meeting House 1813-1825
The handful of white settlers who clustered around the Big Spring called their community Twickenham until they shucked off that name during the War of 1812 because it sounded too British and chose to identify with John Hunt, prominent first settler. As for the state designation, the area was simply a part of the Mississippi Territory-"Alabama" was separated and named a decade later.
White families streamed into the fertile Tennessee River valley in the first decade of the 19th century as native Americans receded following treaties of 1805 and 1806 with Cherokee and Chickasaw tribes.
On June 3, 1809, several families established the West Fork of Flint Baptist Church in open farm country about six miles north the present downtown Huntsville. A month later, at their second meeting, they decided the name was too cumbersome and renamed themselves "Enon."
The Brick Church 1825 - 1861
In 1861 Enon, having had two successive meeting houses in the farming countryside, moved into the growing town of Huntsville, becoming the only Baptist church of "missionary" persuasion in the town. The church minutes noted the "sparseness" of rural population and concluded that "we think it best to meet hereafter as a church at Huntsville, where most of our members reside and where a wider field of usefulness is open…
Enon officially became Huntsville First Baptist Church in 1893. It is the oldest Southern Baptist church in Alabama. (There is an older Baptist church on the outskirts of Huntsville - the Flint River Primitive Baptist Church was established in 1808,
eight months prior to Enon's beginning. The two were sister bodies until the 1830s when a controversy over missions arose; the Flint River church choose the antimissionary stance and later became identified as a "primitive" Baptist body, whereas Enon/First Baptist joined the missions movement, established a "Sabbath School" and took on other modern aspects.
Gothic Church 1895-1963
The town and the church had grown to the point that, in 1895, a new impressive "gothic-style" building was erected on the corner of Clinton and Gallatin Streets. That handsome structure, built at a cost of $7,890 in cash, served the fellowship for nearly seven decades, the latter years in which membership had grown to more than 2,000 although the meeting house was designed to accommodate 450 originally. Spacious new facilities on Governors Drive were occupied in the 1960s.
The Governors Drive property, is therefore the fifth location of the church, two in the open country and three in Huntsville. Through it all, First Baptist has been in the forefront of Baptist progress in Alabama. It has led in the growth of what is now the Madison Baptist Association and, as the first church, has mothered many of the 94 bodies that now make up that association. It has hosted many meetings of the Alabama Baptist State Convention and supplied two of its presidents, as well as state and national leadership of the Woman's Missionary Union. Further, in recent decades as some of its sister churches assumed more conservative positions, First Baptist has been a leader in the cause of moderation, maintaining traditional Baptist values, embracing new missions roles and selecting leaders without regard to gender, contrary to prevailing practice.
Of the two-score pastors who have served the church, the two of longest service both led in the latter period in which the growth and influence of the church have been the most dramatic: J. J. Milford was pastor for 23 years ending in 1949, during which time the church was positioned for explosive growth as rocketry/space development commenced locally in the 1950s; and Alvin Hopson, who served 26 years and led the church in planning and constructing the structures on the outlying Governors Drive.
First Baptist celebrated its 200th anniversary in 2009, feeling blessed of the Lord for its past and facing the future with enthusiasm for continued service.
In 2009, the church celebrated its 200th anniversary; it is the oldest missionary Baptist church in Alabama. The celebration was four years in the planning and actually covered a span of 18 months.

Great chapter....can't wait till the next one.
The chapter's good for once. I'm really happy about the fact that they explained how an adjucha is made. I always thought they were just found because of something Aizen said. Now, I'm really looking forward to the next chapter. I wonder what his attack is?
I liked Grimmjow before, I like him better now. More depth for the Hallows, freakin awesome.
The big question this chapter raised for me was - what happens if Hollow Ichigo "eats" a Menos/Arrancar, specifically Grimmjow? I could see that being the twist ending to this suspiciously long battle sequence.
wasn't it explained how the smaller the hollow dude, the more powerful/concentrated he is? that explains how the small panther can eat noobie hollows
BillDoors- that was exactly what i thought. Grimjaw owns Ichigo so hard that hollow ichigo comes out and rapes Gj. Then eats Gj. then a sidestory about grimjaw's past (human perhaps? or his rise to espada)
this chapter overturned a lot of say about ichigo become almighty and smashing gj though = P funz~~~
hahahahahaha.. but i wish they could pace it up a bit... i want to see rukia!
Yes, I agree. The flashback was actually pretty good, but it's a chapter or two later than it should have been. Practically the entire fandom is dying to find out whether their beloved Rukia will pull through ^_^ myself included...
Rukia's probably alive gasping for air somewhere so it'll be sometime before she gets screen time again
What happens to Sado ? Did he really dieededededee
What about Ishida and Renji ? Round 2 !!!
Predict Away
Full Power Grim maybe fighting against hollow ichigo
Uli finally coming back lol I dont really know but this
fights been goin on for quite some time now

The Emery High construction class spent the last school year building a home in Castle Dale. They learned how to roof, put in carpet and flooring, framing and all other aspects of home building. The Emery County School District supports the building of a student built home each school year.
The students enjoyed the roofing and some of them became expert framers during the project. The feeling of accomplishment at the ending of the project was felt by all students.
Teacher Jim Keele said this was a different year because he was off work with an injury and the students weren't able to work on the house during that time. The students worked extra hard to make sure the house was completed on schedule. This year's house is the largest and nicest of any the class has constructed to date. It has a large kitchen, four bedrooms, living room, garage, three full bathrooms, wash room, large walk-in closet and large tub in the master bedroom. The house is being sold by JuNette Terry of Trails End Realty.
Construction students include: Kittyara Barnes, Jordan Davis, Tyler Fairbanks, Jace Fausett, Brooke Fisher, Hunter Huntington, Kyle Johnson, Joshua Knighton, John Lindquist, Michael Nelson, Erika Olsen, Brett Sorensen, Seth Stephens, Jesse Winn, Cammie Boyce, Nila Keele, KaRanda Krompel and Brandon Randall.
To celebrate the completion of the house they had a pizza party during the last week of school.
