The Exotics EX9 Tour adjustable fairway wood features a slightly smaller head designed for less spin, and a penetrating ball flight with an adjustable hosel for the player who wants to control every aspect of their game.
EX9 Tour's Full-Speed Impact formula begins with a 150cc compact clubhead loaded with technology. The 15-3-3-3 beta titanium cup face is combo brazed to the hyper-steel body for maximum distance in a fairway wood. The EX9 Tour model is Exotics first fairway wood featuring a cup face combo brazed with an adjustable hosel. Tour Edge engineers also added 'sound ribs' within the club head creating superior sound at impact.
The club's design also features our SlipStream sole. Redesigned for the EX9 series, the 'waves' are shorter from front to back, dramatically reducing the amount of turf interaction – the result is a full-speed explosive impact.
The EX9 Tour also includes a 9-gram center changeable weight insert produces a powerful, penetrating ball flight. The weight screw is adjustable and additional weights can be purchased as a kit or individually. The kit includes 6-gram, 11-gram and 14-gram weights to increase or decrease the swing weight. Creating the ultimate ball speed generator, the Power Grid has been reengineered deeper and much more narrow to remove weight close to the face and reposition it deep in the sole.

The Age of Miracles
What if our 24-hour day grew longer, first in minutes, then in hours, until day becomes night and night becomes day? What effect would this slowing have on the world? On the birds in the sky, the whales in the sea, the astronauts in space, and on an eleven-year-old girl, grappling with emotional changes in her own life..?
One morning, Julia and her parents wake up in their suburban home in California to discover, along with the rest of the world, that the rotation of the earth is noticeably slowing. The enormity of this is almost beyond comprehension. And yet, even if the world is, in fact, coming to an end, as some assert, day-to-day life must go on. Julia, facing the loneliness and despair of an awkward adolescence, witnesses the impact of this phenomenon on the world, on the community, on her family and on herself.

Some Republicans aren't holding back when it comes to assessing what went wrong for the party in the election.
"We have the right message on the finances," said Rep. Steve LaTourette, R-Ohio, on CNN's Starting Point. "We have to get out of people's lives, get out of people's bedrooms and we have to be a national party, or else we're going to lose."
Exit polls show President Obama's re-election was delivered through the votes of young people, minorities and women. LaTourette says the nation's red-blue map, showing the states that voted for Obama and Mitt Romney, points to a larger problem for the GOP.
"The Republican Party cannot be a national party if we give up the entire East Coast of the United States," said LaTourette, who is retiring in January.
Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas, said on the same CNN program that Republicans were hurt by comments about "legitimate rape" by Senate nominee Todd Akin in Missouri. Even after Romney and other top Republicans denounced Akin, Hutchison said the Akin comments had a lasting impact.
"People have to stop acting like the woman is the throw-away" in elections, said Hutchison, who is also retiring. "We had Republican candidates who got very high profile and said some very stupid things. I think that really tainted the party."

Art and the banks of the Green River make a nice fit. The John Wesley Powell River Museum is currently hosting the second annual river runners art show. All of the art work will be on display until June 30. Art browsers can also have a hand at picking the People's Choice award with a vote for their favorite artist. Participants from as far away as North Carolina entered the show as well as local artists.
On June 4, an open house and artist's reception was held. Many of the artists set up under the awning at the museum and worked on their paintings or sculptures as the event goers wandered amid the artists and asked them questions. The Nine Mile Canyon players entertained those passing through the lobby of the museum. A silent auction to raise funds to further the art show was also held in the lobby of the museum.
Ken England an artist from Salt Lake worked on a painting of a barn which he had photographed in Fairview. "I do mostly still lifes and outdoor scenes. I was a judge at the first art show held here last year and I wanted to return. I am the supervisor for the fine arts at the Salt Lake County Fair."
Brady Fairbanks was busy working on his statue in clay entitled St. Peter, The New Testament. Fairbanks is from Sandy, he said, "The end result will be in bronze. After a couple of practice molds the final mold will be in plaster and then the bronze is poured into the mold and the clay is broken off. I have been a self-proclaimed artist for the past five years and I dabble in it a bit. I heard about the Green River show from Joe Venus."
Young Cameron Grose, 9, from Colorado just fresh from a run down the river stopped by the museum and participated in learning how to paint with watercolors. Sue Watts from Sandy is the artist in residence who worked with the young artists.
Joe and Shirley Venus along with Verna Watterson were instrumental in beginning the River Runners Arts Festival last year and continued it this year. Joe Venus said, "Green River is a fine place to hold an art show. I like including the local artists. Green River is such a historical place. Green River is a jewel to history and the contributions it has made to the area. I am so impressed with the museum and the people here. It's been so enjoyable. The museum has an outstanding art gallery. It's so nice to be part of a group of people like this."
Venus currently has a showing of his paintings at the College of Eastern Utah Museum in Price and the Museum of the San Rafael in Castle Dale. In June and July he will have a showing on Antelope Island of the wildlife found on Antelope Island. His paintings include buffalo, antelope, bobcat, badger, mountain men and an Indian girl.
Venus recently was selected to be a member of the National Wildlife Artists Association. He is also an associate member of the Society of Animal Artists. Venus and his wife Shirley live in Sandy. Venus recently completed a 40 ft x 8 ft. mural for the museum in Price. He spent six years working on the mural.
Venus falls in love with each of his paintings and doesn't like to part with any of them. He has become especially attached to the mural at the CEU museum. Venus researches each animal before he paints it to get the characteristics and features as close to real life as possible.
"I love them all, the people the animals, everything. I talked to an expert on saber tooth tigers and he said to make the saber look like a lean, hungry eating machine and I tried to do that in my mural," said Venus. The mural also includes camels who once lived here. Venus pays close attention to detail and paints the fine hairs on animals with a brush whose bristles you can barely discern.
Venus hails from the east where he worked as a taxidermist for five years. He was a technical illustrator making cutaway drawings of nuclear reactors, turbo motors, auto engines and other machinery. These drawings were cross sections of the machine to see how a part fit into the engine. These drawings had to be done by hand in the days before computer drafting.
Venus liked the west and came here in 1972 never to return to the east. He has been an artist the past 45 years.
"I love working with artists. I love working with the young artists just coming up. They have such creativity and are so positive," said Venus.
Venus has worked as supervisor of the fine arts for the state fair for the past nine years and has been chairman of the Days of 47 Art show for eight years. He is also proud of showcasing Arnold Freeburg as a featured artist who specializes in paintings of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The Canadian government is very supportive of the pieces of art dealing with the history of their police.
Venus has had his work featured on telephone directories including the Castle Country phone directory.
"I want to support this museum. It's a real jewel and it is an honor to be involved," said Joe.
Shirley serves as the scheduling and marketing genius behind Joe's success as an artist. "I'm just the go-fer," she replied modestly, "Joe was always drawing as a young boy. He was always in trouble for drawing when he should have been doing his work. Joe loves to give back to the art community."
"It's been a good run," Joe said, "It really has been."
Terry Willis from Price also attended the show in Green River. She brought a book showcasing some of her work with etched glasses and different designs which she can make to personalize each one. Willis has just started going to art shows after making a conscious career change recently. "Art is very time consuming and the materials can be quite costly. I have a studio at home to work in. I've really been enjoying it. There's a building in Price, the old Yellowfront building, where I've been asked to paint a mural. They are just waiting for the stucco on the building. I'm looking forward to that and hope to have it finished by the end of the summer. When working on a project, you just have to stay focused.
"I recently completed 18 glasses for a hiking club down to Moab which had landscapes of a different arch on each one. It's just fun and it doesn't seem like work. It's great to get paid to do what you have a passion for doing," said Willis.
"I never know what my next painting is going to be. I take a lot of photographs and paint from them. I also do commissioned paintings for special reasons and they are fun to do, too. One lady wanted me to take two vacation photos she had taken and put them together into one picture. With painting you can do that," said Willis.
Jonathan Frank from Moab, attended the show with his watercolor paintings. "I put a black outline around all of my drawings. The outline makes the features standout and defines everything. We recently moved here from Denver, Denver was just too big. We've been coming out to these areas around here for years. I've made several paintings of the area. We attend 14-16 art shows each year and some gallery events. My images are currently on display in Moab at 59 East Center. I take photos and then take the watercolors and change and add to the feel of the photo. It takes me about 10 hours to outline a picture," said Frank.
All of the artists gathered for the awards which Watterson presented. Cash awards and ribbons were given away. Watterson expressed her appreciation for the many people who helped with the art show. A special feature this year was the inclusion of several young artists from Green River. Jo Baxter, artist, worked with the young to prepare their entries for the show. Glen Baxter also helped getting everything set up for the show. "Joe and Shirley Venus have backed this show 100 percent. Joe said this is an ideal place for an art show. We appreciate the Nine Mile Players for entertaining. We are grateful to our judges and to Arlo Johnson for playing the flute. Tom Burr from the city council is always ready to help and keep this museum working. JoAnn Wetherington has gathered the items for the silent auction and has spent time answering questions. She is even outside now watching the paintings so the artists can attend the awards. We want to thank the museum board and the merchants who donated. We also want to thank Frank Anderson and JoAnn Chandler for their help. This is an annual event which will be held June 1-30 each year," said Watterson.
If you haven't seen the River Runners Art Show in the basement of the museum you have until June 30 to view the paintings and vote for your favorite artist.

CHICAGO (AP) — Gay and lesbian couples across Illinois can now legally wed as the state becomes the latest in the nation to allow same-sex marriage.
Sunday's celebration is anticlimactic for some, because 16 counties began issuing marriage licenses following a February federal court ruling.
Still, June 1 marks the first day all of Illinois' 102 counties can issue the licenses to same-sex couples. It's also the first day couples statewide who have civil unions can ask to convert those to a marriage.
There's no official number on how many couples have wed so far under the law Gov. Pat Quinn signed in November. But Equality Illinois, a gay-rights advocacy group, estimates about 1,300 same-sex licenses have been issued.
Bernard Cherkasov is the group's CEO. He calls Sunday "a history-making day in Illinois."

Skip to comments.Administration Will Spend $1.8 Billion to Build 20-Mile Railroad on 30-Mile-Wide Island (Oahu)
Posted on 02/13/2013 6:04:40 PM PST by Olog-hai
The Department of Transportation (DOT) announced that $1.55 billion in new federal tax dollars will be allocated for the first-ever Hawaiian Transit Rail system on the island of Oahu, which will serve downtown Honolulu, at a total federal and state cost of $5.1 billion.
The train circuit will be 20 miles long, with 21 stops on an island that is 30 miles wide.
An additional $4 million has been obligated from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (the stimulus), and $209.9 million is coming from other sources within the DOT. Both the $1.55 billion and the $209.9 million are proposed funding plans, and will be contingent upon future appropriations from Congress.
The $3.358 billion of the projects $5.1 billion total cost will derive from Hawaiian sources that include but are not limited to excise taxes paid by Oahu businesses and residents, as well as tourists.
(Excerpt) Read more at cnsnews.com ...
This is why roads are falling apart.
Hey, keeping the fact that the dork has no real HI birth certificate costs.
And you and I get to pay....for their railroad.
That money could be better spent investing in Google's automated automobile system. That way they could have hundreds of thousands of stops and no track at all. PLUS, a really big benefit, the blind could travel on the system without the use of special trip hazard rubber mats.
This is why roads are falling apart.
How about tunnels that connect island to island?
Reminds me of the monorail episode of The Simpsons.
Wanna chance hitting a magma reservoir . . . ?
Jason Lewis' law is "Spending begets Spending".
If the Federal Government spends $billion for a Hooterville Trolly for Minneapolis how can you not build one in Oahu.
everyone had enough...well i have...time to act!!!!!!!!!!
Better yet, a bridge to the mainland.
Wow a new money laundering scheme.
Lots of bullsqueeze about traffic, but the effect for most commuters will be nothing. A total waste of money.
WHERE on a 30 mile wide island couldn't you get to by walking?
How many bridges to nowhere does this add up to.
I'm not surprised at this. I arrived at Hickam AFB in March 1969. The construction of H1 was in progress. A mainland construction company, Kaiser, I think, had been awarded the contract for construction for about 20 miles of H1 from west of Barbers Point NAS to near Pearl City and had completed it on time. The local union goons (the ILWU controlled the islands) didn't like that and prevailed on the Johnson administration to break up construction into about 1 mile chunks. H1 still had not been completed when I left the islands in late 1972, and the cost was astronomical.
sounds crazy
If the area has a population density comparable to Chicago or Toronto it would make sense, but somehow I don't think that's the case. If it were a full-on subway the cost would be reasonable but for light rail it's ridiculous.
Clearly, a reward to Hawaii for "losing" the phony illegal 'birth certificate...'
mini-bus and a donkey will get you anywhere
Lead on sir.
The Gravina Island bridge was to have cost $398 million for 1.2 miles (6300 feet) length, or about $334 million per mile. The Oahu rail boondoggle adds up to about 15.3 bridges to nowhere, by that measure.
If the incompetent government(s) estimate it at $5,100,000,000 you can count on it being two to three times that figure.
Bet the taxi, bus, and rental car companies are thrilled too. A lot of locals can watch their jobs evaporate.
Reminds me of the monorail episode of The Simpsons.
I love that.
"Mono means one.
Rail means rail.
This concludes our intensive six-month monorail class."
Suddenly the 9 mile busway they are building in CT seems like a great deal. Only 569 million.
Sad thing is, some of these kind of things can be built for a somewhat reasonable cost. Portland Streetcar came in at about $15 million per mile (in 2012 dollars, including buying the cars and the storage/maintenance facilities), although I suspect that private firms could have come in at far lower cost than that. $255 million per mile for something that's essentially the same kind of thing is beyond absurd.
Still $63 million per mile for a road you won't be allowed to drive on and will require the same kind of maintenance as other roads, including snow removal and suchlike. Ain't government grand?
Will there be a stop at the Baraq Hussein Obama Presidential Library and Choom Gang Museum?
Sure, but the costs for those stations haven't been figured in yet. Undoubtedly they will have to include some kind of artistic vanity piece for the sake of aesthetics and whatnot, and given the "historic" nature, these will certainly be overpriced more than on other similar systems.
What's even worse is that this system will most likely have that absurd proof-of-payment system (abbreviated POP) where you have to buy tickets but can only guess when an inspector will show up; more often than not, there aren't any inspectors and lots of people ride for free, which results in this manner of fare collection having the lowest fare recovery ratio (under 20 percent for the most part), even against subways (with turnstiles), buses (where the bus driver collects fares) and commuter rail (with conductors).
Isn't that where he has his new digs, paid for by big donors from Chicago?
-—— kind of like the super highway that goes about 15 miles into the jungle that was build back in the 50's or early 60's that goes nowhere, has no off ramps - just dead ends in the middle of nowhere with no way to get to the ground unless you bring repelling rope.
Some of this is money that Gov Kasich turned down in Ohio right after he took office.
Yeah but at least they'll have riders. For outrageous costs per passenger mile I don't think anyhing tops the Santa Clara County Light Rail extension to Los Gatos. $175 million for 1.6 miles with a projected ridership of 200 people per day.
Another way to look at it ...
Every citizen is shelling out $1 or his/her own money PER MILE for this sham. $20 from me, $20 from my wife, $100 from my kids, etc.
Choom choom Charlie thinks he's an engineer
Island is only 30 miles wide? Railroad? They can't drive (or walk) to their destination? Heck, where I live it is at least 45 miles to the next small town with nothing in between and the government pulled up the only railroad tracks around here a decade ago to "save the enviroment."
Oh, the "high speed" rail that was planned to travel at about the same speed as traffic on I-71 between Cincinnati and Cleveland. Double the speed and it might make some sense, but at 75 mph there was no reason for it at any price.
Neither project can justify their costs, even on ridership. The revenue from the Honolulu system will be extremely low even with respect to riders, and even if it were not, it'd never recover its costs in construction at that price tag.
That was it. A total waste of money. The previous Democrap Governor wanted it.
This is why the country is falling apart.
Thanks Olog-hai.
It is a 19th Century solution to 21st Century problems.
buy each islander a damn helicopter. be cheaper.
The taxi and bus drivers don't just drive - they act as tour guides in a way. They will steer you to the "best" hotel, beach, surf shop, t-shirt shack, waterfall, whatever. I'm sure the drivers get something in return for their "recommendations". I bet some tourist traps don't advertise any other way. And I'm sure a lot of them will be nowhere near a railway station.
Dunno about that. Per capita, a new Robinson R-22 each (based on a population of 953,207) would run about $238 billion. For the cost of the Honolulu LRT, you might be able to buy them an ultralight chopper each, but those aren't for beginners.
should have put in a sarcasm tag i guess
"Oahu Railway & Land Company
The first section of this 3ft (914mm) gauge network of lines opened in 1889. At its greatest extent, the line left Honolulu, skirted Pearl Harbour and headed for the west coast of the island. It then followed the west and north coasts as far as Kahuku. A branch from Waipahu ran inland to Halemano. The network was heavily utilised during the Second World War, notably for access to Schofield Army Barracks and Lualaulei Naval Ammunition Depot. However, general traffic was insufficient to ensure the survival of the line after the War, and operations outside the area of Honolulu and the Harbour ceased in 1947. The little traffic that remained lingered until 1972, when the last section of line finally closed to commercial traffic.
Koolau Railroad
A 3ft (914mm) gauge line on the east coast of the island, effectively a continuation of the Oahu Railway from Kahuku to Kahana. Dates unknown."

Bought 4 of these 11 Jan 2014 for a 2008 Ford Fusion, It has now been a year and and the tires still look new. The tires seem to be good tires and overall we are satisfied with the performance however, we will NEVER purchase these again.
These tires are SO NOISEY!! If there was a rating of "0" for "Noise, that is what it would be.
Its not as noisey in the summer months because the streets are hot so the tire gets soft and is not as loud however, its still lough enough to hear them over the radio.
The winter months is a different story. Its like I'm riding in a large 4x4 with a lift kit, huge tires and we could use ear plugs. I'm sure the noise factor would go off the scale if messured.
DO NOT purchase these!!

Got 38000 miles out of my set. Pretty low for a 60000 mi. tire. Snow traction was horrible. Won't buy again.

Disapointed....I drive around 50 000 km a year highway and city. I chose these tires last year specifically for the high threadware (600) since I wanted these to last at least 2 summers. I alternate with winter tires, mandatory here in Quebec. After only 1 1/2 summer, they are completely used up. Tire is very slippery on dry which is to be expected for a durable tire but these are slippery AND not durable. On wet though they evacuate water really well. They handle well but do not buy these if you expect a long mileage out of them. I know it contradicts some other reviews but that's my experience with them. I did not try them in snow.

These are actually Ecsta 4X 245/45/ZR18 W100XL tires, not listed as a choice, but have the same tread pattern as the Ecsta LX tires. About 1000 times better than the BF Goodrich tires that they replaced, my wife no longer takes our F350 to work when it has snowed or snow is forecast. Tires are quiet and have been in use for 2000 KMs, thru one snowfall and wet and slush from melting snow (live in Calgary in Canada where Chinooks can give you every condition in a day). Listed treadwear as average as only been on the car for 2000 KM (too soon to say anything about it). Have been driving about 80,000 KMs a year for the last 45 years and these are one of the top tires I have used and reasonably priced.

More than one third of the residential homes have been built since 1990 with resale prices ranging from the $60s to the $90s. New home prices range from the $90s to the $500s. The schools are great and are serviced by the Midlothian Independent School District.
Navarro College is also located in Midlothian.
The primary question you're probably asking yourself is "why is this place called Midlothian?" It was originally called Hawkins Springs after founding father William Alden Hawkins. Somewhere along the line, the railroad line that is, the town's name changed. Most accounts agree that a homesick Scottish train engineer for the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe railway renamed the town after a favored location in his homeland. The name stuck.
Today, Midlothian is known for its unique location just south of Joe Pool Lake and for its proximity to Arlington, home of the outdoor theme park. Midlothian is also home to three of the largest cement factories in the United States, which serve as a prime economic engine. As Midlothian grows, it has managed to maintain a low crime rate and a relaxed lifestyle.

BOONEVILLE – Northeast Mississippi Community College's baseball program announced the signing of another stand-out recruit on Monday, February 5, 2013.
Head Coach Kent Farris has inked another left handed pitcher by the name of Josh Peterson from Denver, Colo.
Peterson played for the Davey Jones team over the summer — out of Denver — and the lefty/first baseman from Ralston Valley High School in Arvada, Colo., had an .337 batting average to go along with 33 doubles, six triples, 40 runs batted in, and one homerun.
"Josh is a great kid that has played with one of the premier summer clubs out of Colorado. We can't wait to get him on campus and have him as a part of our program," said Farris.

The Emery County Sheriff's Office participated in Shop with a Cop at Walmart on Dec. 9. Children who needed a little extra help with Christmas this year were chosen to shop. Walmart donated the money for the event and each child was allowed to choose gifts. The children not only chose gifts for themselves but other family members as well.
Cody Broad, 10, from Green River said, "I'm having fun. I am shopping for my grandma and mom and dad." His mom, Kelly Broad was also along on the shopping trip and they shopped with Emery County Deputy Doug Downard.
Dillon Demont, 9, from Huntington said, "I am shopping for my brother and three sisters and my mom and dad. I'm just looking at everything."
Kolin Hall age 6 from Elmo said, "I am shopping for everybody, my grandparents, mom, dad and sister." Eventually Kolin added a few things for himself to his shopping basket, but his main concern was finding gifts for others.
Sorena Sorensen, 11, from Green River said, "I am shopping for everyone in my family." Her mom, Jenette Sorensen said they were having a good time as they shopped with Deputy Shaun Bell.
Chris Mcginnity, store manager for Walmart said that Walmart is happy to donate to the kids each year. The sheriff's office is responsible for picking out the children and Walmart donates the items. "I love watching the children pick out their gifts. It gives us such a good feeling to give back to our community. It means a lot to us to have our police officers come and participate. I appreciate them so much for doing this for these families. We have donated $1,500 for the Emery County children and $700 for the Carbon County children. I just want to thank the police officers for what they've done. What they are doing is awesome and we're so happy to be part of it," said Mcginnity.
Emery County Sheriff's officers participating were: Doug Downard, Norm Vuksinick, Bob Blackburn, Shaun Bell, Casey Alton, Tom Harrison, Tosha Barnett, Garrett Conover, Shon Roper, Kyle Ekker and Lamar Guymon.

The new look for the Shoreline
Community College Web site went live Friday, June 15, 2012.
See the new lookwww.shoreline.edu"This is the latest step in improving our Web presence, our
face to the world" said Jim Hills, special assistant to the president for
communications, marketing and government relations. "This past September, we
began the process of converting the site to OU-Campus by OmniUpdate. OU gives
us a robust content management system behind the site and allows us to give more
content responsibility back to the various departments and divisions."
Now, with OU-Campus in place, the
college is able to easily apply the new look across the entire site.
"We still have some conversion
work to do in some areas, but most of the site is moved and has the new look,"
Hills said.
The new design is the work of Al
Yates, a faculty member in the Visual Communications Technology programs.
The next steps will be to add the same kinds of navigation found on
the homepage to all the other pages on the site. That will come over the summer
as the college works with OmniUpdate to create and apply new templates to the
pages. In addition to the new navigation, all the pages will get wider on the
Working on the information displayed on the site will continue,
too. OU-Campus allows many more users across campus to have access to pages.
That training has been ongoing this past academic year and will continue as
The college will now start working with OU on a new mobile Web
site. Shoreline was the first community college in the state to have mobile
apps, launching apps for Apple products, the Android system and Blackberry. The
college also already has a mobile Web site, but is looking to make
improvements, Hills said.
"New mobile templates will allow
college personnel to build out a more robust and dynamic experience for users
on mobile devices," Hills said. "Already our data show increasing traffic from
mobile devices and the industry projection is for that trend line getting
steeper and steeper."

To say goodbye to the iconic ramp to the third floor of the FOSS building, faculty and staff at Shoreline Community gathered June 14, 2012 for a group picture.
The aging structure is scheduled for demolition starting mid-June. Also going are the second- and third-floor landings as well as the outside stairs to the first level. In its place will be a new stair system connecting all three levels with a new canopy above the third level. For ADA compliance, the existing elevator has already been upgraded.
The work will take all summer with completion slated for Sept. 7, 2012.

"I am living proof that your past does not determine your path in life," SCC business student and 2011-12 DECA president, Amber Bonifas says, referring to being raised in a troubled home.
The 21 year-old was recently awarded the Transforming Lives Award from the Trustees Association of Community and Technical Colleges, an award that recognizes students who have overcome challenging barriers to go to school and transform their lives.
Her life has been complicated. As a child, she could not rely on her parents as they and other family members struggled with substance abuse; the result was a lonely and turbulent childhood. The community in which they lived made it very difficult for her to make friends as other parents told their children not to play with her because of the family reputation. To make matters worse, she suffered health problems and learning disorders. She says she doesn't know where she would be today if it weren't for the love and support of her grandparents.
At 18, Bonifas resolved to take a different route than her family and enrolled at Shoreline Community College's Learning Center North (LCN) in the spring of 2008. Six months later she had completed all GED requirements.
"Amber is a real go-getter," Bernadette Pila says. Pila, who teaches at LCN, was impressed with Bonifas from the time they met. "She came with so much desire to succeed... all we needed to do was help her recognize that she had the ability."
Pila says that Bonifas is "horribly bright," but didn't recognize it about herself because no-one had ever told her or encouraged her to go to school. She also was impressed with the fact that Bonifas had held a job for years as a front end manager at a large store on the east side. "It is uncommon for our students to hold a job for a long time."
After experiencing success with her studies and being encouraged by LCN instructors and staff, Bonifas decided to further her studies and enrolled in college courses at Shoreline through the Career Education Options program.
"Her tenacity through the years has been inspiring," says CEO's Mariko Kakiuchi. Bonifas' experience and growth at Shoreline Community College prompted her to testify before the state legislature in support of dropout re-engagement funding for future students like herself who weren't able to graduate from high school.
"Shoreline Community College changed my life," Bonifas says. "If I hadn't come here, I don't know if I would have continued with school past getting my GED." Bonifas refers to the generosity of time and the commitment to her success that the LCN group provided, saying they not only helped her whenever she needed help understanding her school work, but they never gave up convincing her to believe in herself.
"That was a turning point for me. I realized that I could do it," she says.
Pila and fellow instructor Guru Dorje were instrumental in making sure she understood and acknowledged her academic abilities. Bonifas says they spent countless hours helping her with her studies and never let her give up when she began to lose faith. They also often encouraged her to consider going on to earn more advanced degrees.
She is President of the Shoreline Community College chapter of DECA and will soon be submitting her candidacy for a national officer position with the international organization that prepares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs for careers in marketing, finance, hospitality and management in high schools and colleges around the globe.
"It has been an honor to work with Amber these past couple of years. Amber has developed personally and professionally throughout her SCC academic experience. She has achieved semi-finalist honors twice in international Collegiate DECA competition. The business faculty firmly believe Amber will have a rewarding career in her future," DECA advisor David Starr says.
Bonifas and DECA members held a food and supply drive for NOAH (Northwest Organization for Animal Help), a no-kill animal shelter located in Stanwood, Washington. She says that the organization is operated through donations and that this is the second year that Shoreline's DECA members selected NOAH for their community service project. The NOAH fundraisers were held at multiple locations in addition to the PUB including local Petco stores and Lynnwood Wal-Mart.
"We made $700 in cash donations and three truckloads of food, toys and office supplies," Bonifas says.
The DECA students also volunteered at a soup kitchen at the Immanuel Lutheran Church in Seattle at which over 200 people were served.
Bonifas is on course to graduate this spring with four AAAS degrees – Business Administration, Retail Management, Entrepreneurship and Marketing. She plans to apply to Central Washington University's College of Business to earn her bachelor's degree in Business Studies.
"I love it when people call me an overachiever because growing up that was never a word associated with my family," Bonifas says with newfound confidence and pride. "My hope is that one day someone will look back and say that I motivated them and made a difference in their lives."
The Trustees Association of Community and Technical Colleges (TACTC) is comprised of all the trustees of the 30 two-year college districts in Washington and is the "trade association" for trustees.
The vision of TACTC is to insure quality, affordable, and lifelong educational opportunities for all the people of Washington State.

The Drover women promise to be conference contenders in 2010, coming in third in the women's preseason poll, which was released Wednesday.
"I'm honored for our team that other folks think we may have a solid side, but preseason polls won't win games," Drover Head Coach Jimmy Hampton said. "We are excited about beginning preseason and focusing on working hard and competing hard, in order to represent USAO in the best manner we can."
The team went 13-6 (7-4 in the conference) in 2009. The women bring back the same talent from last year, but with a bit more maturity and experience.
The Drovers took one first-place vote in the poll. John Brown University tops the list, with Oklahoma City University coming in second.
Both Drover teams are expected to be solid in 2010. As defending conference champions, the Drover men are picked to win the Sooner Athletic Conference men's soccer title again this year.
The Drovers top the SAC Preseason Poll, which was released Wednesday. The team went 17-2-1 overall and 8-0-1 in the conference in 2009, taking both the conference regular season and tournament titles.
USAO took eight of 11 first-places votes in the poll, which is determined through coach's rankings.
Oklahoma City University took the remaining three first-place votes and is ranked second in the poll. Southern Nazarene University follows in third.
The NAIA Preseason Poll will be released next week.
The Drovers begin practice on Tuesday and start scrimmages the following week. The women will take on Northern Junior College at 4 p.m. Aug. 24 at home in their first scrimmage game. The men kick off regular season play at home at 3 p.m. Aug. 31 against Hillsdale College.
The full poll can be found here.

I have a split level house, where each finished floor is about in the middle of the wall for the next level.I have a kitchen on the main level, with a full basement directly below it. The main level steps down about 5 feet to a mid level, which then in turn steps down about 5 ft. to the basement finished floor. There is a full bathroom, with the laundry room and mechanical room on the mid level. I would like to finish off the basement, and include a full bathroom on in the basement level. This would place the basement toilet about 5 ft. below the deepest plumbing lines of the mid level. Can I do this? What is my best solution for making the toilet flush and shower keeping pressure?

The Seeley Fire continued to burn over the weekend, spreading smoke far and wide and particularly on Sunday afternoon filled Helper with dense smoke.
The fire is now being managed by the Eastern Arizona Incident Management Team commanded by John Philbin.
The fire started on June 26, and grew from a very small fire that hand crews and one helicopter were handling to a large fire that rivals most of those now burning in the state.
The cause of the fire is considered to be dry lightning, and has grown to 25,000 acres as of Monday morning.
According to officials, no structures have been lost so far, but the communities of Hiawatha, Clear Creek and Scofield were all evacuated last week. Full time residents of Scofield were allowed to return to their property on Sunday, but the greater Scofield area still remains under evacuation. Many youth camps in the area also remained closed. The evacuations were largely because of smoke, rather than flames threatening structures. Scofield town residents must obtain a pass from the Emergency Operations Center ((1550 Aiport Road in Price) before they will be allowed into the restricted area.
Sunday, the Skyline Mine and Horizon Mines were cleared to open for regular operations. The Skyline Mine had been operating with just a skeleton crew since last week.
Presently there are between 260 and 300 fire fighters battling the blaze. Equipement being used includes 22 engines and three helicopters. The cost as of Saturday for battling the fire was over $600,000.
The roads that lead to the area of the fire have all been and are continued to be closed. These include SR-31 at Cleveland Reservoir and at Crandall Canyon; SR-284 at Electric Lake; SR-96 at Highway 6; Fish Creek and Bear Ridge Roads at Scofield.

Poll created on May 23, 2009 and closed on September 16, 2009
Unlike most meetup groups, this one does not specialize in any one activity. Rather, the aim is to serve as "one stop shopping" for a whole universe of opportunities to get out of the house, DO something that moves the body, brain, and/or soul, and, especially, meet interesting and active people from all walks of life. Examples could include anything from picnics, kayak outings on Lake Wingra, moderate bike rides, and nature walks in the Arboretum to potluck dinners, pubs, and local live music.
So, whether you're new to Madison or a native simply looking to widen your horizons, whether you're single or in a relationship, whether you're old or young, this group will have something to offer!
Grant is the nominal organizer, but he will depend heavily on both suggestions and assistance from the group's members in order to keep a full schedule of activities on the calendar.

The addition of the front light to Kindle Touch 2 (Kindle PaperWhite) makes it great for reading at night too. Mr. Bezos said that Amazon spent 4 years developing the technology (perhaps they should have devoted that time to color eInk, adding page turn buttons, and adding proper folders).
- Adjustable Screen Brightness. Illuminates the screen evenly. Supposedly throws light only towards the screen and not at your eyes.
- Improved Screen – 25% better contrast and 62% more pixels does sound good. 212 ppi is very impressive.
- Better Battery Life – Two months of reading half an hour per day with the light on is impressive. It translates to 30 hours or so of non-stop reading.
- Lighter and More Compact – 9.1 mm. 7.5 ounces. Even the bezel is thinner.
- Available for Preorder today. Link isn't live yet. Ships October 1st.
- Hand-tuned Fonts. There are 6 font styles and 8 font sizes. Will have to see Kindle Paperwhite in person to see whether these are as promised.
There's a new Time to Read feature which tells you how long each book and chapter will take to finish. It customizes itself to your reading habits. Sounds like a cool feature – will have to see how it is in real life before making a call.

Kindle Touch 2 Thoughts
Amazon has taken its sweet time to release its rival to the Nook Simple Touch with GlowLight. However, it's done a great job.
You can read TechCrunch's thoughts on Kindle Touch 2 (Kindle Paperwhite).
What are my favorite 5 features of the Kindle Touch 2?
- There's a Light. Not sure why it took 4 years of R&D. Adjustable brightness and even illumination are good features – nice to see Amazon match B&N's Nook with GlowLight.
- Price of $119 is great. The availability of 3G model is also a good touch.
- Screen improvements are great. Need to dig in more into the whole HD thing. Screen does look very white.
What are things I don't like about the Kindle Touch 2?
- No Page Turn Buttons.
- More as more information is revealed.
Is the $119 Kindle Paperwhite (Kindle Touch 2) the best eReader available. Yes, in my opinion. Of course, I have to actually use it to confirm.

Wish it would have fit
"I absolutely love the unique style of this shoe. I am between a 4.5 and a 5 but have had to learn how to make do with 5.5 in many cases. Unfortunately for me this was pretty true to a 5.5 nearly 6 so to big to pull off on my foot! So disappointed!"

great shoe
"We ordered these shoes for bridesmaids. They are so sexy and don't feel nearly as high as they look. I believe they are pretty true to size but I ordered a half size down because my foot is more narrow than medium and it is working great. These shoes with a gold chiffon tea length dress...fantastic!!"

Sleek design
"I absolutely love this shoe. It's not the best in comfort-ability, because I have a slightly wider foot. I was actually shocked I could fit in these as well as I do. I have not walked for long periods of time in these, but just on the carpet I could tell they will take a bit to get used to. I give these a 4 because the sizing was odd. I ordered a 7: too long. Ordered a 6: still big. Ordered a 6.5: fits pretty great (might need thin insert in back). I'm thinking perhaps someone stretched out the size 6 I received? The shoes aren't insanely easy to keep on due to the design, but I absolutely love the design."

Instant Love!
"I fell in love with these from looking at them online and had to order them! I love them even more in person! My man loves them, too! I love that they are very unique looking with the metallic leaf detail and wrap around strap. That strap also keeps my feet in the shoes; I have narrow heels, so my feet usually slip out of heels without straps of some kind. The heel is a bit thinner than I'm used to, but that's ok. One downside is that my big toe hits the top edge which hurts, so I need to figure something out with that. Also, when I pulled the little sticker off the bottom that just lists the size, it pulled off some of the pretty silver coating. So, that made me pretty mad, but it's not a big spot. Overall though, I love these!"

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

shouldn't this movie be sub already
shouldn't this movie be sub already
so it should be out in a couple of days
The RAW will but the subs may take awhile depending on the interest in doing this which may be high since Golden week comes next week and we get no manga for about 2 weeks.
I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !
I have watched it because of positive comments, but... I didn't like it, it might not have been the worst Naruto Movie, but so many things were wrong, just so many... my favorite line from it would be: "During the Rikudou-senin's era, the Hidden Grass opened the box and almost took over the world.", I wanted to cry for a second there...
for a naruto movie, I felt it was pretty decent.
the pacing was good, story line was interesting, the characters of Mui and Ryuuzetsu were well developed (although Muku's character could have been fleshed out more).
oh p.s. There is no girl that needs saving this time
Im glad there wasn't sooooo much Kage Bunshin and Rasengans but for such a super secret technique it seems like almost every village and clan has a life transfer jutsu lol. Plus loved how everyone was smiling in the end while pretty much all the grass ninja and prisoners were all dead lol.
I liked the movie and how Naruto kinda matured a bit from the others, hope the next one gets even better
A pie in the sky?
Finally got around to watching this.
- lol she said "...during the Rikudo Sennin era the Hidden grass..." lol that statement makes no sense. I think they meant the Grass Country not the ninja village as ninja villages only formed 60 years ago.
- It was great incorporating the Hidden Grass into a story
- Ryuuzetsu looks like she has a Rinnegan
- Ryuumi Tensei
I have to say as always the best stories for Naruto movies are those that involve ninja story lines. This was pretty good.

Starting Position: Lie on your stomach placing your hands in front of your shoulders with your elbows bent and forearms resting on the floor. Brace your abdominal muscles to stabilize your spine. Pull your shoulder blades back and down. Maintain these engagements throughout the exercise.
While keeping your body on the floor, perform the following sequence simultaneously:Slide your left knee forward, bending your knee and moving it out to the to the side of your body until your knee is level or near level with your hips.Lift or slide your right arm forward while maintaining some bend in your elbow.Rotation of your hips and trunk is acceptable during this movement (as illustrated).
From this position, move forward by bringing the opposite limbs forward (e.g., right leg and left arm) in the same manner outlined above. Continue this crawl movement over a distance of 30 feet (approximately 10 m). Your body should stay in contact with the floor.
Exercise Variation: To increase the intensity of this exercise, you can extend the distance covered or increase the crawling pace.

The Archbishop of Canterbury has offered to discuss his attitude to gay marriage with Peter Tatchell, the human rights campaigner who criticised it in an open letter.
In the midst of preparation for his enthronement today, the Most Rev Justin Welby e-mailed Mr Tatchell thanking him for his "very thoughtful" letter and saying he would like to discuss it "without the mediation of the press".
Mr Tatchell called the response commendable, adding that no archbishop, "not even Rowan Williams" had offered to meet him.
His open letter accused the Archbishop, after his appointment was confirmed last month, of a statement
