Possession earrings
With the Possession range, Piaget inspires emotion. A small off-centred diamond, with a nonchalant air as though it has fallen from the ring, gives a fanciful touch to these earrings. The word Possession, engraved on the ring, expresses all the strength of a magnetic attachment. The Possession engraving gives brilliance to the white gold.

Dr. Martens Rohan Oxford
"These shoes have a definite defect on the right heel and will be almost unwearable after walking for a few minutes. I have gone back to DSW locally and tried other pairs and the results are the same. i have talked to other men that bought the same style and they all have the same problem. I will not bother to take them back It seems that DSW buyers do not test their shoes when they order them. I am extremely disappointed."

Brianne Mason Simmons, 32 of Lawrence, a recently widowed mother of four young girls, Kamrie, age 14, Danielle and Raquelle, who are 9 and Madilyn age 6, is battling cervical cancer that has spread to other areas in her abdomen. Brianne faithfully went for her annual pap smears, but was diagnosed in November of 2010. She had a hysterectomy to remove the 7 cm. tumor on her cervix in December, the doctor also removed a lymph node in her left groin area to make sure there was no other cancer. The lymph node showed no cancer. Brianne was unable to work after her surgery so she had to quit her part time job. She and her four girls live solely on hers' and the girls' social security she receives since Paul's death at the end of July.
After Brianne's hysterectomy, she had 25 radiation therapy treatments in the early months of 2011. Brianne could hardly walk even after her radiation, her left leg was weak and she was in a lot of pain. An ultrasound and MRI was done and another mass was found in the area her lymph node was removed. This 8 cm. tumor was attached to the ilelac or lifting muscle in her leg. She also had a PET scan, a positron emission tomography, which showed no other tumors or masses. Brianne had surgery again in May to remove the tumor and had radiation directed at the area where the tumor was during the surgery. After the removal of this tumor she started to feel much better. She had 15 more radiation treatments along with a low dose of chemotherapy in June.
After grieving with her girls over Paul Simmon's death the end of July, Brianne geared up for her CAT Scan on Sept. 2. She got the results that the cancer had spread to other areas of her abdomen on Sept 7.
Brianne is now undergoing chemotherapy every 21 days at the Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake City. She is scheduled to have a CAT scan again on Nov. 23, just prior to her fourth chemotherapy treatment. She has a port in her chest for her treatments and any blood work, as it is extremely hard to find a good vein. Others who have had the ports have stated that it's their best friend, as it makes it much easier for the patient.
Because of the intense nerve pain she experiences, Brianne was a good candidate for an implanted pain pump. This pain pump delivers the pain medication directly to her spine and is routed right where it is needed. The cost of the pain pump is approximately $20,000. Things have been a lot better for her since she had this put in surgically on Oct. 4 as she is able to be alert.
Donations are welcomed for the silent auction and bake sale. Take the items to Magnuson Lumber in Castle Dale. Monetary donations are being taken at Zions Bank. Call Lindsey at 749-0416.
and we are encouraged by her recent increase in appetite without the fear of nausea and vomiting that is associated with taking pain medication orally. Brianne is given a $6,000 Nulasta shot the day after she receives chemotherapy to help her blood levels stay up. She has had two blood transfusions and she feels better after receiving the units of blood.
Brianne has done physical therapy to help her leg muscle get stronger, but is still unable to walk without a walker or cane. She is using a friend's wheelchair for now to get around. Besides resting, her day consists of listening to KLOVE radio, watching TV, reading her Bible, and doing her current Bible study on faith. She loves having visitors and feels so blessed by all the love, prayers in her behalf all over the world, words of encouragement, meals and many acts of kindness offered by so many in the community. We are grateful to friends and family who are there to help take the girls to their activities so they can have some sort of normalcy.
Brianne is such a positive person and has endured so much, we believe that God has a plan, His perfect plan. Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future."
The Lord says, "Forget what happened before, and do not think about the past. Look at the new thing I am going to do. It is already happening. Don't you see it? I will make a road in the desert and rivers in the dry land." Isaiah 43:18-19
When everything seems like it's falling apart, God is putting things together just the way he wants it.
We believe that one day Brianne will be cancer free.
God is waiting for just the right time to show us His miracle.
Cervical cancer, almost completely preventable
With proper education, regular screening and vaccinations, cervical cancer is almost completely preventable. Despite significant advancements in the screening and treatment of cervical dysplasia, cervical cancer remains a threat to thousands of women annually. It is the number one or two cancer related killer of women, with nearly 500,000 new cases still being diagnosed worldwide every year. All cancers of the cervix are related to the human papillomavirus (HPV). The Guardasil vaccine will reduce the incidence of this disease, girls 9-26 should be vaccinated so that they can actually see a reduction in cervical cancer rates.

Tight fit, simple look
"I bought these to wear at work during the winter instead of wearing boots all day, and to avoid wearing slippers. The flats offer no support (they are flats, after all), but fit snug to the foot and especially so with thick socks. I'm not sure how long these would hold up while wearing outside, as the soles are not especially thick."

cute, BUT ...
"... lacks support. Although this shoe is incredibly cute, it has paper thin support. I suppose you could buy insoles, but that kinda defeats the purpose of spending good money on shoes.Also, the fringe on the sides are too long. They brush against the ground, making the ends curl up, and I'm sure picking up dirt and ground grossness along the way.I give it 2 stars, because the color and cuteness factor. It's just a poorly executed idea."

Love these shoes, But . .
"These shoes are comfy, and super cute. However, they do run rather tight, and a little short. I'm sure had I gotten an 8 1/2, instead of an 8, they'd fit perfectly. If you have wider feet, like me, I recommend getting the next half size up. I do recommend them though. Got them today, and already my new favorite shoes!"

Sunday and Wednesday nights are tied for my favorite nights of television
Sunday. Hands down. NeeeeextReplyCancel
Hbo and Showtime makes Sunday night Tv worthwhile.ReplyCancel
Sunday – Amazing Race (but I do miss Downton) and Wednesday – Survivor. Who thinks Tony will win??ReplyCancel
Sunday for sure. The minute Games of Thrones appears on the stream, the dishes are abandoned.
Everything else, I usually wait until the next day or so and watch while I'm multi-tasking. GoT seems to be the only show I can sit still for.ReplyCancel
Califbondy – if Tony is in the finals (and it seems he will be what with that all powerful Idol he has) he should win. He's been playing hard from the start and even though he's not my favorite, I always appreciate a player. I like Spencer or Tosha for the win even though Spencer can be a big whiny baby sometimes.ReplyCancel
All about the GOT!
I'm finally done with finals so I can catch up on Fargo!ReplyCancel
Monday now for "24" and I love my Wednesday evening Property Brothers – me and every 40 something in the US, it appears, as I just saw a commercial this morning that they will be doing a Property Brothers & Buying & Selling marathon this Sunday for Mother's day! 🙂ReplyCancel
It doesn't matter to me. I have on-demand! So, any night is the night to catch up on what I missed!ReplyCancel
Enty, what are your favorite shows on those nights?ReplyCancel
Why is Amazing Race never on demand? That has always irked me. But now that the Cowboys are out, it's hard for me to pick who I'm gonna root for. Maybe, Dave and Conner. Anyone but the Brenchels — blecchhhReplyCancel
I DIED laughing during the running with the bulls part! Rachel was such a baby about it! I'd like to route for the country singers b/c they are 2 girls but they really haven't done much on their own to rally my support. They've relied on luck and everyone else to help get them through and I just can't cotton to that. I was routing for the cowboys but since they're gone now i guess I'm behind the Afganimals. The father and son team got too whiny and vindictive about the U turn and using the "i'm an old man' excuse bothers me too. That 'old man' is a very viable competitor.ReplyCancel
I just binge watched season 1 of The Americans — OMG, one of the best TV shows on right now. So I'll have to take Wednesday night (The Americans + Survivor) and Sunday (Mad Men + Amazing Race). I can't be bothered watching any other tv shows live. Once Big Brother comes back on (don't judge, beyotches), I'll fill the rest of the time with live feeds — better than any soap opera or drama.ReplyCancel
Game of Thrones & Mad Men Sundays are the best.ReplyCancel
Sunday. I just fell hard back into Once Upon A Time and I'm haunting the internet looking for spoilers and sneak peaks (and considering biting my nails.) But by the time season 4 (hopefully) starts, I'll be disinterested until around mid-season and kicking myself for not DVRing it because only the last five eps are on OnDemand and ABC.comReplyCancel
I LOVE David tennant (check out This is Jinsy = pure brilliance). However, I find Billie Piper (as Rose) quite off putting. Us it worth watching her mouth full of marbles? Cos I Already watched the call girl series. She looks like she was smacked in the mouth with a sock full of rubbleReplyCancel

Every other day is just blah, except Tuesday's with Justified or Fargo.ReplyCancel
It's a date TTM! No spoilers here…I just think that Courtney's confidence and straight forwardness makes her appear arrogant, maybe she is a little bit but she is way more polished than Adore….I dunno I think Bianca will win it based on how she has inadvertently mentored some of the younger queens inc Adore…

We tested six of the most sophisticated zero-turn mowers designed for residential use and made some surprising discoveries along the way.
The Best String Trimmers & Weed Wacker Reviews
We tested six of the most sophisticated zero-turn mowers designed for residential use and made some surprising discoveries along the way.More
It's no secret that Americans love their lawns. Not so cutting them, however. The average person wants to get that lawn mowed in a hurry and then get on to the next job or perhaps something fun. And even people who like to cut their lawns have their limits. This ambivalence - love the lawn but hate the cutting - has resulted in a demand for machines that cut grass efficiently and make fewer physical demands of the operator. Over the years, manufacturers have developed more efficient grass-cutting machines, and the most recent expression of this is known loosely as a zero-turn mower. This is a machine that steers using the rear wheels and is far removed from the traditional front-wheel-steering tractor design of other products.
The Zero-Turn Trend
The machines that we tested are direct descendants of the commercial cutting machines introduced several years ago. They are designed to cut so closely around obstacles that they nearly eliminate the need to trim. One advantage of these machines is that they pivot through 180 degrees without leaving a circle of uncut grass (the radius or diameter of the uncut circle is one measure of a conventional mower's cutting ability).
The typical design of a zero-turn mower has each rear wheel connected to a hydrostatic transmission - a device that creates wheel rotation using pressurized fluid. Rotational force from the engine turns a pulley-operated pump that pressurizes the transmission fluid. When you move a steering/speed lever, you are controlling the flow of fluid through the transmission and the rotational speed or the forward/reverse direction of a drive wheel. Maximum lever movement means maximum fluid flow, which translates into a rapidly turning wheel. If one drive wheel turns more rapidly than the other, the machine moves along a curved path. If both wheels turn at the same speed, the machine follows a straight path. If one wheel stops and the other turns, or if the wheels turn in opposite directions, the mower pivots.
Are these machines a good fit for you? It's true that they deal effectively with maneuverability - aggressively so, in fact. The question is: Do you want or need that much maneuverability? Read on to sort it out.
Shake Out
Well, here's how it all shakes out. Husqvarna has had years of experience with its machine overseas, so it has had time to work the bugs out of its design. Its machine proved to be the most refined and easiest to use. It was comfortable and comparatively quiet, and its four-wheel design allowed it to work well over either smooth or bumpy ground. In all, it's a great mower.
Next is the Simplicity. Although it tested as the loudest mower, it was well designed, and it cut nicely.
The Craftsman and Ariens mowers, not surprisingly, ranked very closely together, with the Craftsman just barely edging out the Ariens for third place because it seemed slightly more comfortable. The Ariens is appreciably quieter, however.
We wanted at least one of the test mowers to mark the outside edge of what a homeowner can buy, and this slot was assigned Cub Cadet because it was the only manufacturer that had such a broad line of these machines. The Cub received high marks for its rugged, commercial-like construction, but it handled a bit too aggressively, we thought, so it's probably not a good fit for the suburban homeowner. We would recommend, however, considering the company's smaller, lighter and less powerful mowers.
That leaves the Snapper. The testers were unanimous on this one. We understand that Snapper wanted to build a big, rugged machine that's simple to operate and maintain, hence the single joystick. But we just don't agree with where the company took the product's design. If you like the basic, farm implement nature of Snapper's products, perhaps you will like this mower. It just wasn't for us.
Price: $6299
Engine: 18 hp**
Deck/Cutting Height: 54 in./1.25-4.25 in.
Weight: 750 lb.
Length: 84 in.
Gas: 4.5 gal.
Warranty: 2 yr. R
Ground Speed: 7 mph
Tire: 9x19 in.
Noise Level: 90 dBA
By far the most nearly commercial machine, the Cub was the fastest and most powerful, and it had the largest deck. But those characteristics come at a price, literally, and we wondered whether an aggressive machine like this might be a bit more than the average homeowner needs or wants. Put it this way: It's there if you want it, but the company also offers two other machines that cost about $2000 less and may well be a better fit for the average suburbanite. When we were a bit overzealous in operating this machine, it tended to spin a wheel mark into the lawn. A final note: The Cub was the only machine equipped with a safety PTO disengagement in reverse. That is, when you reverse the mower while cutting, the mower automatically disengages, and although you can continue to move in reverse or forward, you have to disengage the PTO and then re-engage it to resume cutting.

This humble pie is delicious!
I ain't even mad. My sincerest congradulations to Colton Orr and Frazer McLaren for passing Ilya Bryzgalov and Evgeni Nabokov in points last night.
Post Game Blog
Steve's Twitter
Looking forward to my Mclaren jersey :) Also, just because were playing moneyball with goaltending doesnt mean its a recipe for disaster. Id take our situation over phillys (dare i say even vancouver?) any day. close to the top in dollars per save percentage!
I'm ok with our goaltending. These guys are still relatively young and might mature into a very nice tandem.
I would rather they save the money for a better partner for Phaneuf.
McLaren had 6 points in 23 games for SJ in the 09/10 season and 19 goals in 61 games for the 06/07 Portland Winterhawks of the WHL.
I'm thinking there is a good chance you might have to buy a jersey.
I'm getting impressed with the leafs. Mclaren is scoring and Kessel is actually trying to play gritty and defensive. I'm still waiting for kessel to break open and show he can score against top shutdown competition like other leafs have (kadri, mclaren, grabbo etc)

last few days i am addicted to an online game called Gladiatus Hero Of Rome
you take the role of a gladiator
you fight in the arena against other gladiators
you buy weapons/shoes/accessories/food/shields/etc
you sell the above things to other users and you buy new ones
you can work in the stables in order to make gold for the living (usually people work in the stables when the go to sleep or have work to do in real life,etc)
you can take missions by the tavern, or search for weapons/shields/etc by exploring the surrounding of Rome!
also you can belong along with your friends in a clan and trying to make your clan the strongest!
you can make alliance with other clans, or making new enemies!
also you can have a tutor or you can become a tutor to a new member
lastly, in order to help you upgrade you can put a link that sent you gold from the people who clicked it, so you could ask your friends even if they do not want to play to support you...
i love this game because it has level ups and good ranking
it support many languages...
i will put some links if you want to take a look!
-----> Gladiatus
it would be nice to make a Magnashare clan...
if i am allowed to join(i am not sure because i play in the greek version) i would gladly participate....
p.s if i manage to learn how to upload images i will add them here...

A short note on Elizabeth Smith's MCA departure
August 5, 2009 · Print This Article
Last week the Chicago MCA's Elizabeth Smith announced she would resign her post as chief curator at the end of the month, explaining that ten years in the position was long enough and it was time to move on. Fair enough. Curators are increasingly expected to be peripatetic nowadays, which suits our globalized art world and helps keep an institution's perspective fresh and forward-thinking — but it also makes it hard for curators to maintain longstanding ties with local artists.
On a personal note, when I was an assistant curator in Los Angeles, I worked for the museum that co-organized Smith's Lee Bontecou exhibition. At that time I was utterly taken by the romantic ideal that Smith's relationship with Bontecou represented for me, and I still am. Smith pursued Bontecou for years before being given access to the reclusive artist's work. When Smith was still a curator at MOCA in L.A., she organized a small Bontecou survey without any participation from the artist (though she tried repeatedly to get in touch with Bontecou). Bontecou eventually came to see the show, and wrote Smith a letter afterwards saying how much she liked it.
Over the years Smith developed a strong relationship with Bontecou, eventually gaining access to the treasure trove of work that the artist had kept mostly private after exiting the art world (or the New York art world, at any rate) in the early 70s. It's no surprise, then, that Smith cites her 2004 Bontecou retrospective as a professional and personal highlight.
There are lots of different ways one can "be" a curator, but to me, Smith's dogged pursuit of an artist who didn't always want to be pursued, but knew she had to be, for the sake of art history if nothing else–represents a pinnacle of what the profession can accomplish. Smith's low-key, artist-centric style of curating may be somewhat less in fashion nowadays, but I admire it tremendously. To me, she's a model of how a curator can built strong ties and a relationship of trust over many years with artists whose work they believe in. Here's wishing Ms. Smith the best of luck in her upcoming endeavors–I can't wait to see what she cooks up next.

The only thing that might ruffle your feathers is trying to decide what flavor of rotisserie chicken to buy. It comes plain, of course, but flavors such as lemon herb, barbecue, and garlic can add a touch of pizzazz. The flavor is mainly on the skin, so you can use the meat from any flavored chicken for any recipe.
Handling Rotisserie Chicken Safely
Pick up your rotisserie chicken as the last item on your shopping list. Be sure the chicken is hot when you select it from the heated case. Follow the same food-safety guidelines as for all foods: Keep foods hot, which is 140ºF or warmer, and always refrigerate the chicken within 2 hours of purchasing (1 hour when the air temperature is above 90ºF).
If you are going to use the chicken for a recipe, remove the meat from the bones, cut it up and use it immediately. To use later in a recipe or if you have leftovers, cut the meat from the bones into small pieces, place in a resealable plastic food-storage bag or container with a cover, and refrigerate for use within 4 days. Or place in a freezer container with a cover or in a resealable plastic freezer bag and freeze up to 4 months. Thaw frozen cooked chicken in the refrigerator.
How Much Rotisserie Chicken?
The size of rotisserie chickens does vary. An average weight for a rotisserie chicken is about 2 pounds (32 ounces). You will get the following amount of cut-up meat from a 2-pound chicken:
Whole Chicken = 3 Cups
White Meat Only = 2 cups
Dark Meat Only = 1 cup
Carving Your Rotisserie Chicken
Use a sharp knife and a meat fork for best results - safely - when carving. A carving knife works best because it has a long, curved blade. A meat fork has a long handle and two tines. While carving, keep the chicken from moving by holding it in place with a meat fork. Carve on a stable cutting suface, such as a cutting board, meat carving board or platter catch the juices.

|In response to Re: basement toilet
: Any suggestions on best ways to tap into a drain in a basement to install a toilet and shower? Any way to "see" what is under there before opening the concrete? (I'm thinking of the little testers for electric wires so we know where they are before opening up a wall - is there something similar for drain pipes so we know where they go under the concrete? I can back the toilet up to the drainpipe from the upstairs toilet, but obviously will have to put the shower a few feet away and get that water to the same drainline. I'm in a 1920s Seattle house and scared of what I may find when I bust into that concrete!

The Yonkers house was home to followers of the noted mid-century African-American religious leader.
YONKERS, N.Y. -- Since the turn of the last century, a magnificent Colonial Revival mansion has loomed large over Park Hill Avenue and Rumsey Road, serving as a hilltop gateway to the gracious Park Hill neighborhood in southwest Yonkers. Everyone knows it as the Father Divine House, named after the charismatic African-American preacher who bought it in 1939.
Father Divine's followers, known as his Angels, remained in the house well into the 1990s — and, ironically, many went on to become domestics in local homes, valued for their conscientiousness, work ethic and honesty.
The current owner, Robert Facey, bought the house from Father Divine's widow 11 years ago. Last year, after much polishing, restoring, repairing and refurbishing, Facey decided that an 8-bedroom, 6,200-square-foot mansion was way more house than he needed and put it on the market for $1.1 million.
After eight months without much serious interest, Facey at last has a buyer — a very enthusiastic couple from New York's Upper West Side. In fact, Art Perlman and his wife, Claire Gutekunst, weren't even house hunting.
"We were intrigued by the Park Hill area of Yonkers," Perlman says. "And there was this house. It was the house that made us decide to move — to have such a beautiful house with 2.7 acres within a half-mile of New York City."
"We're city people and we want to stay in touch with the city and still be a part of it," he adds. "Jane (McAfee of Houlihan Lawrence Real Estate) showed us around Park Hill and that made it so much better. We bought the house largely because of Park Hill."
A Divine mission
Park Hill, a historic neighborhood known for its large single-family homes, is considered one of the country's first planned suburbs. It's a close-knit community with many artists, musicians and writers in residence.
The Father Divine House was built in 1898, originally for the Louis G. Fisher family. Alarico Valle, a contractor, bought the house for $100,000 in 1922. Then in 1939, when his fashionable neighbors thwarted his plans to build apartments, he sold it to the Harlem evangelist.
Father Major Jealous Divine, the controversial religious leader of the 1930s and '40s, was known as a charlatan and hustler to many — longtime Congressman Adam Clayton Powell Sr. called him "the colossal farce of the 20th century." But to his tens of thousands of African-American followers -- and a smaller number of whites -- he was a saintly visionary with God-like powers.
Father Divine's message through his International Peace Mission was a mixture of Christianity, cultism and and a self-help ideology of positive thinking. He believed in abstinence, education, hard work and self reliance. He gave away massive amounts of food to feed the hungry during the Great Depression, while also amassing tons of money from his hard-working followers.
The itinerant preacher with the golden voice and charismatic style was an early civil rights advocate who proclaimed that women were the equals of men, and whose properties were open to both blacks and whites in the segregated mid-1900s.
Along with the grand houses in Yonkers and New Rochelle, Father Divine and his Peace Mission movement owned a 70-acre riverfront parcel in Tarrytown, N.Y., from 1941 to 1986. At his height, he was also one of the biggest landlords in Harlem. His organization owned as many as 150 missions throughout the United States and Europe, and included restaurants, gas stations, retail stores, hotels, and farms.
Not much is known about Father Divine's early life. Historians believe he likely was born in either Savannah, Ga., or Rockville, Md., around 1880 and named George Baker.
In the 1940s, he moved his operation to Philadelphia. He married Mother Divine (nee Edna Rose Ritchings) in 1946 and died there in 1965. He is buried in a mausoleum at Woodmont, the Pennsylvania estate where his widow lives.
'Heavens' on earth
Through his secretary, John DeVoute — Father Divine never owned anything in his own name — he established the Yonkers house as one of his many communal residences called "heavens" on earth.
The minister arrived at his new home in a chauffeured limousine as part of a march of 700 of his followers who enjoyed a massive banquet with 100 varieties of food.
"The house was called Heaven," McAfee says. "All his residences were called Heavens. He never really lived here, but his Angels did."
Those Angels, with names like Sister Smiling Child, Sister Bright and Love Love Love, lived in the home for several decades. Father Divine's followers lived by a strict code of ethics, known as the "International Modest Code," which forbade them to smoke, drink, attend movies or the theater, or use cosmetics or profane language. They were not allowed to accept tips, gifts or bribes or engage in "undue mixing of the sexes."
The house was nearly demolished in 1992 when the Mormon church wanted to buy the property and erect a much larger building as a place of worship. To save it and keep the property from being developed — "Someone could have plopped 11 houses up here," McAfee says — the Park Hill Residents' Association convinced the Yonkers Landmarks Board and City Council to give the house landmark status the following year.
Fortunately for Perlman and Gutekunst, Facey, the current owner, did an enormous amount of exterior and nuts-and-bolts work on the house, including cleaning and restoring all seven fireplaces and adding new copper gutters and downspouts and four new exterior doors.
"He pulled off the aluminum siding and put up cedar clapboard around the whole house," McAfee says. "He added custom molding around the windows and put in better new windows, and an all new roof."
Facey redid all six bathrooms and installed a whole new heating and cooling system with four-zone heating and three-zone air conditioning. "The house never had central air," McAfee says. "He did a ton of work — it was a mess."
Throughout the house, you'll find lots of period architectural details, including built-in window seats and bookcases, original floorboards (pine on the first floor, oak on the second), curved moldings, fireplace tiles, wainscoting, leaded glass windows, oak paneling and tray, coffered and cove ceilings.
"This is clearly a situation where the house could have been lost along the way very easily," Perlman says. "We're tremendously grateful that it made its way to us."

So I went to see Coraline the other day; which I personally found to be disappointing thanks to a terribly obvious plot, poor dialogue, and despite such a promising start, the pacing makes the last 20 minutes more of a joke than anything really.
But enough about that, in the previews I saw a trailer for a movie that caught my eye, the movie "9."

Anti-virus software founder John McAfee said Thursday that U.S. authorities have made no efforts to question him since he arrived in Miami after weeks of evading Belizean authorities who want to ask him about the death of his neighbor. (Dec. 13)
One day after John McAfee was deported from Guatemala to Miami, it was unclear whether the software mogul, wanted in Belize for questioning about a neighbor's death, would be extradited to that country.
McAfee said Thursday he hasn't been questioned by U.S. authorities since he arrived in Miami.
McAfee, who moved to Belize in the early 1990s after founding and selling the software company that still bears his name, has said repeatedly that he believes the Belize government wants him dead.
MORE: McAfee's fate likely tied to Belize political relations
He told ABC News he faked a heart attack in Guatemala to buy time for a judge to stay his deportation to Belize. "I look pretty healthy, don't I?" he said.
He denied illegal drug use. "I haven't taken drugs in 30 years," he told The Miami Herald.
McAfee, 67, hasn't indicated his next move. He said he is focused on seeking the State Department's help in getting two girlfriends, 20 and 17, out of Belize for their safety.
The fact that the State Department has a generally favorable impression of Belize's justice system, and both countries have a treaty agreeing to hand over suspects, are factors in his fate, says Laura Lichter, president of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
On McAfee's blog, labeled "edited by staff," someone wrote, "Please respect John's privacy this evening." The entry also said, "We have contacted Sam, and are putting her in touch with John" — an apparent reference to Samantha Venegas,McAfee's 20-year-old Belizean girlfriend, who accompanied him on the run but did not come to the U.S.
McAfee's webmaster, Chad Essley, told USA TODAY on Thursday via Twitter that McAfee was rested and doing well — "location unknown," he said. "Received a call saying he was safe and finally a bit rested just now."
McAfee did not respond to queries via Twitter.
Police in Belize have called McAfee a "person of interest" in the fatal shooting of American businessman Gregory Faull.McAfee turned up in Guatemala after three weeks on the run.
The State Department website offers hints about McAfee's future, Lichter says.
"One of the things to look at is how much faith the U.S. puts in the Belize judicial system — whether they are good guys and fairly predictable or human rights violators," she said.
The site says there have been instances of excessive force used by police, but that the constitution provides for an independent judiciary that "generally enforced" the right to a fair trial. It says the U.S. and Belize have "cordial" relations and work together to fight transnational crime.
FBI spokesman James Marshall told the Associated Press in an e-mail that the agency was not involved in McAfee's return to the United States. U.S. officials said there was no active arrest warrant for McAfee that would justify taking him into custody.

How to Select
How to Shop Vanity Mirrors
A vanity mirror is a sophisticated addition to a bathroom vanity. This elegant bathroom fixture can easily transform a dull and inexpressive environment into a piece of creative design. For instance, dramatic impact performed by the mirror will perfectly match the purpose of any purchase. Regardless of whether you're planning to remodel your bathroom or upgrade some of its parts, a new stylish vanity mirror will bring a slight touch of elegancy and intelligence to any bathroom design. These fixtures are intended to reflect artificial and natural light, and they are mainly manufactured for provision of decorative and functional advantages.
In order to make up your mind it could be very useful to take a look at the following handy tips for deciding on the best vanity mirror for your needs.
- Space. First of all, it is necessary to measure the space devoted to the future mirror. Remember that while in the store, all the mirrors look a bit smaller than they are in reality. So, it is necessary to know the right height and width. The vanity cabinet should not be lower or narrower than a mirror. Besides, it is important to keep about 6 inches free from the ceiling edge and about 2 inches from each side of the wall.
- Budget. The cost of a bathroom vanity mirror can differ from $50 to $1,000. It all depends on the mirror's size, functionality and production material. Here it is extremely important to decide upon the role you are expecting from the mirror. If it will serve just for simple reflection, then there could be considered cheaper variants, but if you would like your future mirror to become a part of decorative design, provide light and storage functions, become the star of your bathroom, then it is high time to get ready for a pretty costly shopping.
- Frame. The bathroom vanity mirrors can be performed in a framed and frameless version. If you are willing to create your own style frame, then it is better to purchase a frameless mirror and later order a unique creative frame from a professional craftsman. In this case you can personally choose not only the main way of mirror performance, but also the material it will be made of and its color.
- Functionality. All bathroom mirrors can be either simple bath fixtures providing only a reflective function, or be featured with a wide range of additional benefits, like side or bottom storage shelves, external or internal lighting, and even a built in TV-set.
- Mounting Style. There are several possibilities for mirror mounting. They can be either permanently mounted by glue or liquid nails or fixed with the help of mirror or wire brackets. When choosing a new bathroom mirror it is important to select its shape and style, keeping it consistent with the interior design of the overall bathroom. The mirror's shape, edge lines, material, color, size and style should perfectly match the rest vanity fixtures already installed in your bathroom.

The changing landscape-natural gas in the West
Dr. Raymond Levey, of the Energy and Geoscience Institute at the University of Utah conducted a breakout session at Sen. Bob Bennett's Rural Business Conference in Price. "Energy is so important to the future of the West, and this Nation," said Dr. Levey. He said the landscape of the West is shifting in the fossil fuel area.
Utah is the number one state in the percentage of residential natural gas users in the United States. Eighty-five percent of the homes in Utah use natural gas as opposed to the national average of 50 percent. According to the map he displayed, Utah is the center of natural gas production in the West. Availability may be a factor in the high number of residences who use natural gas.
The EGI at the U of U, works with fossil energy sources, and researches new, more efficient and less polluting ways to use them. EGI is the largest program of its type at any university in the world. They have been researching geothermal energy for more than 30 years. Geothermal is one of the three core research programs at the U. The others are fossil energy and carbon engineering.
"Taking carbon particles out of the atmosphere is vital to Utah," said Dr. Levey. "Our research and the processes will be vital to other nations of the world. Our staff of 90 scientists is associated with 18 countries and 65 companies. Our staff has recently been asked to help with the consultation for the rebuilding of Iraq's infrastructure."
Dr. Levey said since 1980, the number of gas wells in the West has increased dramatically, and many more wells are on the way. In terms of a global perspective, most of the reserves of natural gas in the world have been produced.
The scientists are now looking into undiscovered resources and processes for their use. Some of these are coal bed methane, tar sands and gas shales. Other emerging future resources may be sub volcanic plays, shale plays, new tight gas plays, and deep coal bed methane.
"Technology will be the driving force in the future of energy production. There will be technological challenges to overcome. We must understand the unconventional resources. Utah has all the unconventional resources," stated Dr. Levey.
Due to the cleanliness of natural gas, Dr. Levey predicted that natural gas use will grow increasingly. Natural gas produces less carbon dioxide emissions than other sources of conventional fossil fuel. It produces 30 percent less than oil, and 45 percent less than coal. It is the cleanest of the fossil fuels.
"Most of the new wells have been drilled in the West with 2006 and 2007 seeing the largest increase in production. All production in other conventional sources are on the decline. Natural gas is the only one on an upward trend," added Dr. Levey.
He said Utah has an abundance of each of the types of sources being researched at the U of U. Gas shale and coal bed methane now account for 30 percent of the amount of natural gas produced in the U.S., and the Rocky Mountain area produces 20 percent of the gas used. Demand for natural gas is expected to increase 2 percent a year for the next 20 years.
"Utah has been severely underrated as to the number of cubic feet of potential reserve of the unconventional types of resources. Utah has all three, tight sands, coal bed methane and gas shale. Utah will play a big part in the production of natural gas in the future," Dr. Levey stated.
Dr. Levey said with the technological advances in the drilling area and seismic survey methods, more of the usable reserve is being produced. These new methods allow more intensive well drilling and less waste in the drilling process.
He concluded with this thought, "The federal government is spending less and less on fossil energy research. The University of Utah is developing more and researching more ways to use the unconventional reserves in the West. Utah has had, and will continue to have, a significant role in the technology lessons we have learned."

Specialty Pharmacies
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My doctor tells me that I should get my cancer medicine from a specialty pharmacy. What is that and what are the pros and cons of using a specialty pharmacy instead of my usual pharmacy?
Carolyn Vachani RN, MSN, AOCN, OncoLink's Nurse Educator, responds:
A specialty pharmacy has clinicians trained in certain disease states, such as palliative care, HIV, transplant, oncology and some are beginning to work with health conditions like diabetes. They typically work with a high cost or high complexity disease state in the hopes of improving are for those patients.
The pharmacists at the specialty pharmacies will have the applicable education and/or certification for disease state management and will have greater knowledge of drug treatments, interactions, management of those interactions, toxicities, adverse reactions, etc for that particular disease state. While hopefully any medication error will be spotted at any pharmacy, the odds are increased if the pharmacist is intimately familiar with that particular disease state, dispenses many prescriptions for those medications, and knows the prescribing habits of local physicians. They also may or may not compound (mix up) special dosage forms of medications like topical gels or suppositories for medications not commercially available in those dosage forms. In addition, specialty pharmacies will stock all drug therapies for that disease state, rather than the local pharmacy having to special order them.
I'm not certain why the oncologist is recommending a specialty pharmacy in your case- perhaps he has a good relationship with the staff there, perhaps he commonly prescribes specially compounded medications, perhaps the pharmacists are more opiate-friendly (pain medications), or you live in an area where the local pharmacy does not stock commonly used items, etc. Some of these pharmacies will also provide the doctor with patient compliance data (did they refill on time, meaning they likely took their meds as prescribed), which can be especially useful in post-transplant or HIV treatments.

Loving Life: Greeley woman loses her arm but not her positive attitude
January 12, 2013
About this story
It was a tough year for motorcycle crashes for Weld County and its residents. This is the story of how one second of lost focus caused a life-changing injury for a Greeley woman, and how her attitude helped her through the tough times it caused.
Brenda Lucio lay on a bed of jagged rocks, amazed she was still alive.
When her motorcycle snagged on the guardrail two turns from Drake down the Big Thompson Canyon on a sunny Aug. 26 afternoon, pitching her over the side, she had one thought: So this is how it ends.
In her mind, she saw her husband's face, the man she loved since she was 16, followed by the faces of her two children. Through her visor, she saw leaves, and then branches, and then the ground. She rolled, then stopped on the rocks, dazed but aware of her good fortune.
She said a small word of thanks. And then she began to take inventory.
She heard her friend screaming in the distance. OK, I can hear, she thought. She already knew she could see. She turned her neck and wiggled her toes. Then she looked over to her right.
Held to her body by a piece of gristle, her right arm from the elbow down looked like a prop, perhaps from a zombie movie.
That's gone, she thought.
When her husband and friends got to her, she told them not to look at her arm.
She remembered that there was a major artery in the limb from the movie "Soul Surfer" about Bethany Hamilton, the girl whose arm was bitten off by a shark, and she told herself to remain calm. Her untrained friend applied a perfect tourniquet. When paramedics loaded her into the ambulance, she didn't ask them to save her arm. She asked them, grinning, for some morphine.
That night, Richard, her husband, asked her if she was OK if the doctors took her arm. She asked him back in response. Yes, he said. Yes, she said.
Of course she was. From the moment she looked over at her right arm after she landed on those rocks, she was planning for a life without it.
'This isn't for sissies'
After spending their younger years at the Armadillo, the Mexican restaurant founded by Richard's father, Joseph, they believed they were ready to open their own place in October 1999. They would call it Coyote's.
Opening any new restaurant is risky, but this one seemed even more so. Back then, Greeley liked its meat and potatoes. Coyote's would feature a nontraditional Mexican menu. Brenda, though, told Richard that he if he built it, she would run it.
Brenda, now 51, graduated with Richard from Greeley West in 1979. They stayed here because they knew they would have the local support that could be the difference between closing and being successful. With her long, auburn hair, stylish clothes and disarming smile, she thrived on personal connections and looked forward to being the face of Coyote's.
That, along with her history, put her in Greeley's public eye. Her daughter, Savannah, a sophomore at Greeley West, used to roll her eyes at visits to the grocery store. Can't we go ANYWHERE, she would say, without you knowing someone, Mom?
Coyote's was not profitable for the first couple of years, but Brenda remained optimistic despite going weeks without a day off. She always was. Richard, whom she married when they were 25 after dating for nine years, used to roll his eyes, too. Brenda, he would say, not EVERYTHING has a bright side.
Those connections, and maybe her fervent belief, paid off when Coyote's turned around, and the two became comfortable in 2005, when they opened Palomino, a Mexican restaurant in Evans. But she was surprised at how much those connections seemed to matter after she was hurt in the crash.
She was already in her hospital bed, feeling cornered from the 60 bouquets of flowers and teddy bears and gifts crowding her room, when the floods of well-wishers came to check on her. Richard and Brenda had thrown parties in their time and attended many others.
"I felt like I was entertaining," Brenda said of the first couple of days after the crash.
Brenda didn't think of losing her right arm as a "bright side." Only childbirth hurt more. She kept her dominant arm, being left-handed, but as she recovered, she was reminded several times a day of her life-changing injury.
"I will say one thing," she said several times. "This isn't for sissies."
She could no longer clap. She couldn't carry her things and open a door. She couldn't do her hair. Folding laundry took twice as long. Snapping a photo was almost impossible. She couldn't even have a cup of coffee in the car because she used her one arm to grip the wheel. Zippers, she said, "were the devil."
But when she lay on those jagged rocks, she was not only amazed she was alive, she was grateful. Sometimes the most tattered cliches are true. Brenda was a happy person before she lost her arm, but she appreciated life more now. A lot more.
She struggled with her injury, but knowing she was alive was a doozy of a bright side. That alone would get her through the tougher moments.
Connection with kids
Brenda continued to thrive on those personal connections, only now they came from well-wishers and prayers and the occasional questions, which she not only answered but encouraged. When she spent those first couple of weeks on the couch, recovering, she stared at a wall plastered with hundreds of cards, 150 alone from students from Billie Martinez Elementary. Coyote's gave a Christmas party to the school, which struggles with poverty, for a dozen unheralded years. When she got the packet in the mail and saw their scrawled signatures, she started bawling. It was the only time she remembers crying after the crash.
When she could get out of the house, people stopped her in the grocery store more than ever. She told what she called Her Story dozens, then hundreds of times, to anyone who asked.
She and Richard, both people who took pride in their fashion sense, scoured online stores and looked for flowing, breezy yet stylish clothes that camouflaged her missing right arm. People seemed more at ease when her stub wasn't exposed. Brenda, honestly, was too.
Responding with
kindness and humor
As Brenda lay on the couch in the family room during her recovery, staring at those cards on the wall made her more determined. Those kids believed in her. She would not let them down.
I am going to the annual Christmas party, she said to herself, and I am dressing up like an elf. The elf costume, her annual outfit, disguised her missing arm well, but not as well as her new wardrobe.
"Kids aren't afraid to ask, and I love that," Brenda said. "Ask and then let's move on."
She already had a response planned out.
"I'll just tell them I'm from the Island of Misfit Toys," she said.
Brenda learned through those hundreds of conversations to kill the awkward moments with kindness or a joke. She secretly hoped that when people saw her, they would notice the arm for a few seconds, and then come back to her face. The jokes helped move that along.
The kids at the mid-December party didn't seem to notice. They were focused on the presents her patrons and employees bought and the snacks. If anything, they saw her as another adult, and that meant asking her to open their milk. She did it without hesitation.
Moments like those were either encouraging or discouraging, depending on how long a task took her to complete. Brenda learned to do anything once by herself and then determined whether the effort was worth it. Brenda prided herself on her independence and didn't want to ask for help all the time.
Even so, she didn't mind her husband doing her hair for her, or helping her dress, or pick out clothes. Richard always watched out for her, since they were students, and she appreciated the intimacy.
She adjusted. Richard bought her a rolling briefcase, so even though it looked like she was in an airport all the time, she could carry important things like her calendar and phone. She managed to make Savannah's lunch every morning (because, she noted with amusement, Savannah making it herself would mean her teenager would have to get up two minutes earlier). But her independent nature called to her. That's how she got into motorcycles.
Her crash came after a spring and summer of learning how to drive after 25 years of riding on a bike with Richard. She took a beginner's class just in case they crashed one day and she had to drive it home. She finished first in the class and decided she wanted her own bike. She was no longer hanging on to her husband's waist. She loved the freedom and the road.
She loved it all up until that moment when, she said, she lost focus going down the canyon and the guardrail was in front of her. She has vivid memories of the crash, but she also remembers how wonderful it was to look around at the Big Thompson river and the vast, stretching walls before her. It's why she smiles when she talks about the crash.
She thought she would spend the rest of the year growing as a motorcyclist. Now she simply wanted to be more productive around the house.
A week from Christmas, she visited Hanger Prosthetics and Orthotics, 7251 20th St., for help.
A new arm
The arm hung by her right side. It felt tight, heavy and a little painful. Hanger specialists acknowledged the pain. What's left of her arm will shrink, they said, but it takes time.
"It's like a Chinese finger clamp, isn't it," said Jack Uellendahl with Hanger.
Pain was a part of her now. The stub hurt when she rolled over in bed or took a shower or grazed the side of her car door. The weight felt strange. The prosthetic weighed less than 3 pounds, only slightly more than a real arm, but she had gotten used to not having anything there at all.
The arm was custom-built for her, and she would have to learn how to operate it by using what's left of her tricep and bicep to open and close the hand, and how fast or slow she flexed would determine the speed and power of the device. She was a quick learner, but it was harder than it seemed: She squeezed a bottle of mayo all over the counter at home a few days after her visit.
Brenda favored functionality over appearance, but the way it looked was important, and as she started wearing it, she was more self-conscious of the prosthetic than her stub. She could camouflage the stub, but Hangar officials told her the arm would work better if she left it uncovered. It looked more like a mannequin than Brenda wanted, and she didn't like the way the arm just hung there. She would need to add to her wardrobe for a compromise.
But she also cut a tomato for the first time since her crash. She held the fruit in her right "hand" and cut it with her left. She could pick up a plate. She didn't feel so helpless.
The arm made her feel more and less like herself. It would be an adjustment, she said, maybe the biggest one she would have to make. There were many times she would leave the house without the arm. But she liked the opportunities the new arm would give her.
Sharing her story
Brenda went to a Christmas party in Greeley filled with friends, socialites and people about town. She had a great time, but she left the house feeling relieved.
She was seen. That's the goal for many at a party like that one, but Brenda wasn't concerned about status. She wanted to get Her Story out there. Just about anyone who attended that party would be a candidate to stop her in the grocery store. Instead, they heard or overheard Her Story, and those who didn't hear it could see she was happy. She hoped the word would spread.
"We got all of that out of the way," Brenda said. "I really don't mind answering the questions. I welcome them. But at some point they have to stop."
The specialists at Hanger prosthetics and doctors and others who know what it's like to lose a limb all have told Brenda life returns to normal, whatever that is, after a year. The nerves in her arm won't hurt as much. The prosthetic will feel better. The questions will wind down.
Her dislocated kneecap should be healed as well. Brenda was a runner and loved working out, and that's no small thing to someone who takes pride in her appearance. She hopes to start running again in the spring and maybe start on Pilates. Push-ups, she said half-seriously, are out. She isn't worried about falling. She used to fall a lot when she had two arms. She's more sure-footed now. She's more cautious.
She also hopes to ride again this spring, but only with Richard, just as she did for many years. She hasn't been to the Big Thompson Canyon or the site of her crash since it happened. She'll go back. Maybe this summer.
Brenda always appreciated life. She appreciated her family. She appreciated her good fortune and how it worked out in the tricky restaurant business.
What she appreciates more now are the moments.
"I drink in my husband," she said. "My kids. My folks — I'm lucky to still have them. It's all those little moments. That's what are so important to me now."
She doesn't know why it took losing her arm for her to recognize that, but she knows that's how it goes.
"I hope every day I can say thank you," she said. "I hope I don't lose sight of that."
On Christmas morning, she looked out her window and watched the snow fall. She later learned that it was one of only a handful in the last 50 years with a true white Christmas. That made her smile.
"See?" Brenda said. "This really is a special year."

My New Favourite Gadget~I'm new to epilators, and if I had known about them a long time ago I would've bought one fast. The bottom line is yes, it is highly effective at removing hair, but no, it is not completely pain/discomfort-free. And the extra shaver attachment is nice. I've used the epilator mostly on my underarms, but also on some slight upper lip hair and some 'snail trail' hair on my belly. It got pretty much all of my underarm hair. I was surprised that it got most, if not, all of my finer snail trail hair. I wasn't surprised though, when it couldn't get all of the shorter, very fine upper lip hairs--but still, it wasn't bad there.
The pain depends a lot on 1] hair thickness, 2] pain threshold, and 3] prep and technique. For areas with finer hair it just feels like a mild little sting. I had the most pain with this for my underarms. I had read reviews giving advice on how to decrease discomfort, which I followed and 1] took a warm shower before epilating, 2] made sure to scrub/exfoliate my skin, and 3] hold the skin taut while epilating--all to help open up the pores. That addresses prep 'work' and technique. My underarm hair is somewhere between medium and thick texture, so I expected that it wouldn't be so easy to pull out. As for pain threshold, I have a very high one. I've tweezed my underarms before [which was very time-consuming], and currently my eyebrows and even some of the noticeable upper lip hairs. I've had dentists be surprised at how I can take procedures without anesthesia. That being said, the first time I epilated it hurt A LOT. 'Sin Dolor' ['without pain' in Spanish] my butt!! I even took an Advil about 30 minutes beforehand and it did nothing, LOL. I would say that the pain right after the epilation was the worst; a burning, stinging kind of pain. I'm not gonna lie, I also bled a little, but I think this is because some of my pores hold more than one hair and my hair is not of a fine texture, like I said. I had also purchased an irritation/chafe-protection cream-gel, which I apply to my skin after epilating to avoid serious irritation. It didn't really ease the pain much the first time, but it felt cool and it helped a little bit, psychologically at least!! It's just good to prevent further irritation, you know? after having your skin endure a lot.
The second time I used the epilator on my underarms, it wasn't as bad. Actually, I would say that the pain was already greatly decreased [also, it's true that if you go in expecting~ less pain, there will~ be less pain]. The only thing that was significant was the burning and stinging afterwards, but I found the cream-gel more effective this time.
I'm yet to epilate my underarms again [probably in a week or so], but the results are already amazing. You will notice your underarms start looking lighter [because there's no more stubble under the skin surface!!] and the hair regrowth will be finer. And I went about 3 weeks between my first and second epilation before I saw a significant amount of regrowth. I had heard from a friend [who's been epilating much longer than I have] that the sooner you go between epilations the faster you'll be on your way to having less and less regrowth and longer regrow time. This is why I didn't wait for the '4 to 6 week period' that's commonly advertised and just waited until I had a good amount of hair to epilate.
Not to forget the shaver attachment, it wasn't as amazing as the epilating head, but better than I expected. I used it on my legs and there was no stubble visible afterwards and my skin didn't get nicked or anything. It was quieter than I expected too, which is a plus.
Overall, this is an excellent product. It's very effective, so if you can get past the pain and discomfort, go for it!! IT IS WORTH IT, especially in the long-run. It's low-maintenance and cost-effective so you won't have to shave all the time [just remember to clean the head after epilating] and you don't have to keep paying for waxing. And who doesn't want sexier underarms?
I know this review is veryyy long, but I tried to be as thorough and honest as possible so I that I can hopefully help with the decision process. Thanks for reading :]Dec 27, 2011Anna / New JerseyHAIR TYPEBlack / Normal Hair

Love It But..This is my first epilator and it really isn't the painful process I thought. It hurt at first in certain areas but you soon get used to it and there is generally less hair than the first time and that helps too. I'm now looking to upgrade to one that removes more hair more reliably. It's a good first one because of the price and to see if this is a way to remove hair that you can tolerate. I looked at home laser but they work on pigment and if any of your hair is light colored, they don't work. An epilator doesn't care.Nov 24, 2011TamaraHAIR TYPENormal Hair / Fine or Thin Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Collins, Poloncarz on Ralph Wilson Stadium
Please enter your comments below.
Let them go
Let the Bills leave, Ralph is one of the richest people in Buffalo and yet he begs for money to redo the stadium? Look what the new sabres owner did all on his own dime. Why we should we be paying for the rich people to redo their places where all therich players go to toss a ball? Not to mention all the over priced stuff they sell with the team logo. Hasn't anyone told old Ralphie that Buffalo is the third poorest city in the NATION and quickly sliding into first place?
We need them to stay!
This area has a bad enough reputation for failing to thrive as a good area for business. We lose more companies because of stupid petty reasons.(verizon,bass pro)We will never move forward with this mindset of some politicians or talk show hosts.Areas that thrive have sports teams as an anchor to draw people and business to their area..This area however loves to chastise those who like to see the glass as half full not empty. Ralph Wilson has probably put more money in the pockets of this area than any "businesman" around here.. Yes he has also benefited but isn't that what business is? Also the Sabres owner is brand new, still in the honeymoon phase, give him a couple of years and see what happens!! He really hasn't proven anything yet...He has a new "toy" to play with...Ralph Wilson has been around for 50 years, (where is his loyalty?)(really people)!! We need the Bill's and they need us,win/win...
Bye Bye bills,
it is time to say good by. No monet for Bass pro, so the sdame goes for the bills. they eithert pay their own way o r leavr, they do and mean nothing to me even though my Son played 8 years for them .Good riddance.
Sure, why not
We should ask the following, profitable companies with rich CEOs move their companies away from WNY: Buffalo Bills Buffalo Sabres HSBC M&T General Motors Ford GEICO Kaleida Health Time Warner Verizon New Era First Niagara Yeah, I could go on, but I won't. Each and every one of these businesses is in BUSINESS to make money...as much money as possible. Capitalism, I guess. Most of these companies have accepted government money, whether it be in the form of a bailout, or en enticement to continue to do business in Western New York. The hard part is, without these companies, people don't have places to work, or things to take pride in. The more of these companies that leave, the more people leave with it, and that equals more share that each resident has to chip in to keep the community afloat. I won't even mention the community esteem factor, which is dashed each time a company leaves town. The Bills are looking for $100M in improvements over 10 years. That's $10M a year. For comparison purposes, Erie County libraries get $22M a year. I'd argue that the Bills bring in more to than $10M in hotel taxes, sales tax from merchandise sales, and player salaries, so it's break even, at worst. Whether it's art museums, philharmonic orchestras, historic building preservation, or the Bills, all of which tax dollars support, take pride in your community assets, instead of trying to push them out the door at every opportunity, just because someone is making money. We need all of the reasons to have civic pride that we can get.
Stop the scam
Take a look at what happens with other teams in other places. In MA the state told the Patriots to take a hike when they wanted the government to foot the bill for a new stadium. The Patriots turned around, built the stadium on their own and add on a hugely successful shopping/dining/hotel as part of it. Buffalo, Erie Cty and NYS are broke and the taxpayers are bled dry. This profitable team (and any entertainment venue for that matter) should not be govt. supported.
