I want these! When will they be out?
Right On Altra,
Zero drop cushioned trail shoes are what I love!
Can't wait to get some!
Regards Scott Campbell-Neale
I want these (problem is, I want them now).
One shoe to "rule them all" has been my search, but nothing was quite up to it although I thought I had found it with the improved NB MT00. These are very nice, comfy, light weight, good traction, but maybe not for racing? This is the 2nd trail race for me (first in Vibram Spyridon) where I really needed some mercy for the downhill rock damage my feet took.
Never notice this sort of thing during training, but under race conditions where bombing is a must )if you want to win) I just don't think I want to stay as minimal as I have. Would never get the Lone Peak but these look great. Hope they get released soon. S lab sense will be my second choice. Locally, they are all sold out and I hear that sizing is tricky so can't order them on-line. Hurry Altra, hurry.
Just got these yesterday. Haven't had a chance to run, but did wear around work all day. Felt great. Pretty light and very flexible. Size is about a 1/2 small. I tried on Instincts 1.5 and the 10.5 was a little snug. Ordered the 11 and it fits perfect. Can't wait to get them dirty this weekend.

Gardeners Logic steps up with second residency
From left: Ian Bailey, Mike Wilson and Vince Phung perform every Monday in April at Detroit Bar.
In just nine months Gardeners Logic has gone from the solo side project of local singer-songwriter and guitarist Ian Bailey to a full-time folk outfit featuring drummer Matt Wilson, guitarist Vince Phung and a steady rotation of other O.C. players.
Bailey came up with the moniker in 2008 while still in high school. At the time it served as an outlet for material that didn't sit right with his other bands. Later that same year he joined rock act the Counter Regiment, along with Wilson and longtime friend Gary Westmoreland. In 2011 that trio disbanded while still opening Music and Arts Production Studio (MAPS) in Huntington Beach to focus on behind-the-scenes work. That December, Bailey brought some of his music in, and he and Wilson started work on Gardeners Logic's debut EP.
It took seven months to complete, during which time the duo decided to keep the project under wraps and not perform live. By June, however, they were ready to unleash their seven-song recording and present new material to audiences for the first time, with the help of fellow local musicians at the Avalon in Costa Mesa. A few weeks later, and only a handful of shows into its career, Gardeners Logic was offered its first month-long Monday night residency at Detroit Bar.
"It all did happen pretty quickly in hindsight," Wilson says during our interview this week at the Costa Mesa club, where Gardeners Logic is once again the resident band, performing ith a variety of opening acts – including Jameson, Stacy Clark, Billy Kernkamp and Golden Afternoon – every week-starter in April.
"When we first decided to play shows the biggest question was: 'With what size band?'" Bailey adds. "In my mind I wanted every part that we recorded in the studio played live, so we mostly had six- or seven-piece bands those first shows."
The group continued to flourish and last December Phung joined full-time as the band readied itself for a mini-tour in January. Bailey self-booked the West Coast jaunt. During down days on the road, he'd call up venues along their route to inquire about last-minute openings.
"I was just calling people like, 'Hey, we don't have anything on this night so if you have a spot ...' Sometimes it worked out. We had friends and fellow musicians in almost every city we went to that were really supportive, and we slept on a lot of floors, not even couches. We also took two cars, so we didn't even have a van to sleep in."
Returning home the guys began work on new tracks, creating enough content to release physical copies of The La Habra EP on April 29, the final date of its residency. Each Monday evening the band will debut a new song, then play the entire disc on the last night. Unlike with the self-titled effort, they've set a hard deadline to press the album. As of this week, the recording had yet to be finalized.
"We have the bones down but we just need to add the meat," Bailey says with a laugh. "I'm excited to be doing this, but this is our first time working under a self-set deadline, so the pressure is on.
"We've said it will be out by then, so I guess if we don't make it, then we blew it. We'd be giant liars, but it will get done. I just hope that people who come out, if they like the one new song, they'll come back the next weeks to hear another one and another one, and like those as well."
Once the Detroit Bar gigs are over, Gardeners Logic will head out on a second West Coast trek, this time with fellow O.C. act Big Monsta. Wilson says the guys also have big plans for their studio, where they've already produced and recorded releases for their future road mates and Randsburg.
"The studio is our little business project," he explains of the 3-year-old endeavor. "That way we can pay the bills and manage to record our own stuff, too. The band is staying busy and the studio is really busy, because it's all kind of attached. We're trying to gear everything we do in that one direction."
Gardeners Logic plays Mondays in April at Detroit Bar, 843 W. 19th St., in Costa Mesa. Admission is free but 21-and-older only.

The law office of Mark Tanner would like to introduce their newest employee. Travis Blackburn joined the business recently. He is an associate attorney along with Mark Tanner. Tanner recently returned to Emery County from a sabbatical to the Dominican Republic. Blackburn maintained the law office in Orangeville and Huntington in Tanner's absence.
Blackburn said he does everything associated with a law practice. He meets with clients, builds files and documents and attends hearings with clients. "My favorite is criminal defense and ensuring that clients receive due process and a fair trial. We handle bankruptcy, family law, custody and divorce. I live in Price with my wife Tammy who is a speech therapist and our three children including 6 year old Elizabeth, 3 year old Rachel, and 1 year old Matthew.
"My father, Dennis Blackburn grew up in Emery. He was a podiatrist with a practice in Carbon County before he passed away. I did my undergraduate work at Brigham Young University and attended law school in Missouri. Most of my family lives in Utah, so when I finished law school we wanted to move back to Utah to be close to our families. I was a clerk for a judge in Utah County for a time and worked for a firm in Price before coming to work with Mark Tanner. I really like it out here. The people are really nice and friendly and generous, they bring us vegetables and are really giving.
"When I'm not working I enjoy sports, basketball, and being outdoors fishing and camping. I like to read and I like to study history. Some day in the future, I would like to travel.
"I really like helping people. I like to help them to understand the court room and the legal process and how it works. I like to help take away their anxiety and nervousness. It's very fulfilling to help people through the legal process and to let them know, they can get through it and continue living their lives. We act as counselors and confidantes. We need to work to remain objective on our cases and keep things in perspective because oftentimes our clients are very emotional. We work to prepare our clients for all situations and help them put things behind them so they can rebuild.
"People make mistakes but it's important for them to know they can get on with their lives," said Blackburn. He works out of the Huntington office and sees clients from Price and Emery County there or he can meet with clients at the court house in Price or wherever it's convenient for the client.
Tanner invites everyone to get to know Travis Blackburn and let him help you with any legal need you may have. The numbers for the law office are: 435-687-5577, 748-5577 and 636-5577.

It's always weird to hear conservatives doubt the idea of peak oil and then you have the U.S. Navy doing this
The Great Green Fleet is debuting at the 2012 RIMPAC (Rim of the Pacific) exercise, the largest ever international maritime war games, engaging 40 surface ships, six submarines, more than 200 aircraft, and 25,000 personnel from 22 nations. For the first time Russian ships are playing alongside US ships, and naval personnel from India are attending. Many fleets here are sharpening their focus on alternative fuels and working to assure the formulations are codeveloped with their allies. "We've had dialogue with the Australians, the French, the British, other European nations, and many others in the Pacific," and they all want to take "the petroleum off-ramp," Cullom tells me. "We don't want to run out of fuel."
You can't live off the land at sea, which is why the Navy has always looked far into the future to fuel its supply lines; the job description of admirals requires them to assess risk and solve intractable problems that stymie the rest of us. Peak oil, foreign oil, greenhouse emissions, climate change? Just another bunch of enemies. So when the Department of Defense set a goal to meet 25 percent of its energy needs with renewables by 2025, the Navy found itself fighting on familiar ground. Four times in history it has overhauled old transportation paradigms—from sail to coal to gasoline to diesel to nuclear—carrying commercial shipping with it in the process. "We are a better Navy and a better Marine Corps for innovation," Mabus says. "We have led the world in the adoption of new energy strategies in the past. This is our legacy."
It goes beyond supply lines. Rising sea levels lapping at naval bases? A melting and increasingly militarized Arctic? The Navy is tackling problems that freeze Congress solid. What it learns, what it implements, and how it adapts and innovates will drive market changes that could alter the course of the world.
But not without a fight. Six weeks before RIMPAC 2012, Republicans and some coal- and gas-state Democrats tried to scuttle Mabus' Green Fleet by barring the Pentagon from buying alternative fuels that cost more per gallon than petroleum-based fuels—the biofuel blend cost more than $15 a gallon—unless the more expensive alternative fuels come from other fossil fuels, like liquefied coal. This tricky logic made sense to Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.)—"[The Pentagon] should not be wasting time perpetrating President Obama's global warming fantasies or his ongoing war on affordable energy"—even though seven years earlier Inhofe helped secure a $10 million taxpayer fund to test renewable military fuels, more than half of which went to a company in his home state. Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) agreed, calling the purchase of biofuels "a terrible misplacement of priorities" and adding, "I don't believe it's the job of the Navy to be involved in building…new technologies." Mabus, who'd already bought the biofuels for the RIMPAC demo, fired back: "If we didn't pay a little bit more for new technologies, the Navy would never have bought a nuclear submarine, which still costs four to five times more than a conventional submarine."
A good look at the politics behind change in any institution, even one that needs to be as cutting edge as the U.S. Navy.

In response to the "Royal Tea Party" hosted by Miss Emery County and the pageant committee. Job well done.
I took the opportunity to attend this event with one of my grand children and so did many other mothers, grandmothers and daughters.
The decorating, costumes, food and activities were well planned and presented. I appreciate you for taking the time to put this together for our pleasure and to participate in a fund raising event for the Miss Emery County Pageant and the girls involved. I also appreciate our County Commissioner, Laurie Pitchforth, who spoke to all about proper manners which seems to be somewhat lacking in today's world. How easy it is to express and show appreciation by demonstrating proper etiquette; and how easy it is to let this important issue go by the wayside if we are not careful.
I appreciate all the beautiful young girls participating and attending who dressed so fitting for the occasion, a "Royal Tea Party". How nice to have special events and occasions to practice a more refined society and being at our best.

really cute boots
"I wanted a pair of everyday boots to wear this winter that could go from casual to cute, and these are great. The fit is amazing - they hit exactly the right balance between a snug ankle and a roomy calf - they don't sag or fall down, but I can still get them on over jeans."

My New Favorite Boots!
"I LOVE these boots! They are very comfortable and the distressed look is really nice. I have average size calves and they hug them perfectly so I don't really understand all of the other reviews stating that they are very wide in the calves - they must have really skinny calves :)"

Good for wide calves!
"I've been looking for a boot for a long time that fits my wide calves (16.5") and I can just zip these up! They are a little snug, but they work. I wish that they were real leather, but I got them on clearance so it's okay that they're not for the price. The brown ones look very fake in person, but the black could pass for sueded leather at a distance. Also, they are more of a dark charcoal rather than black, and have a brown/wood-colored sole and heel so they can be worn with black or brown."

What a DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!
"I purchased these shoes to participate in a 10 day horse trip in Patagonia, Argentina. Due to the nature of the trip, we were permitted ONE pair of shoes, which needed to serve all purposes, including the time on horseback, moderate hiking and camping. I tried them on and wore them for two days to break them in prior to departure. I loved them. They are comfortable and easy to walk in. The first day that I put them on after arriving to Patagonia, one of the clips that hold the lace broke off. Wouldn't have been sooo bad, until the next day, a secone one broke on the same shoe. During the ten days, both heels separtate from the sole, and the upper part of the shoe tore away from the sole. They became an impossible nuisance, and added a lot of unnecessary discomfort to an otherwise great experience."

Hamstring strain for Clay Buchholz
FORT MYERS, Fla. Red Sox starter Clay Buchholz left the field after straining his right hamstring while covering first base during a spring training drill today.
"It's the best thing that it happened now and not when we're getting ready to pitch in games," Buchholz said. "As far as they told, it's mild as it can be. For how I'm looking at it, get here early and do the treatment on it and hopefully I'm back in the next four or five days."
John Farrell said Buchholz would be further evaluated on Wednesday and is day-to-day. He described the strain as being mild.
"That's the way it is sometimes," Buchholz said. "It's not the way I wanted it to start."
Buchholz wasn't scheduled to pitch in an exhibition game until the second week of the schedule. He doesn't expect he will have to miss that start.
"Nah. I don't think it's that. I'm able to walk around. I wasn't able to walk the last time [he strained a hamstring] in 2010," he said. "I feel like it's not going to take a whole lot of time."

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
and even in sto its terrible and used mostly for farming so
and to top that off it IS cryptic, one of the worst developers in the western hemosphere
Definitely looks interesting, cryptic has proven to be good at customization thingies.
As for that last paragraph: I still think it will be exploited in some ways by players, there really is no way it wouldn't be when they find so many things to exploit in games that have been designed bottom-up by devs.
Still, it will be very interesting to see what people come up with!

I know, right? What's the most expensive component of MMO development? Content creation. Let developers give the basic story and create the systems to give players tools to create even more. It's a win-win proposition!
The most expensive component of MMO development is asset creation such as all the artwork that goes into everything. But you are definately on the right path with content creation. Wizards of the Coasts figured this out a long time ago with original PnP D&D. Make the manuals, world, rules, dice, and sell little figurines and the players will do the rest.
If the game is entirely free-2-play (no required sub fee, no box/software purchase), would it be such a bad thing to monetize the game in such a way to make a profit?
You get to experience a core scope of the game (albiet limited). If you like the game, you sub for more features/content/foundry sets or you buy it a la cart.
I don't have to buy the software (awesome!). If I truly enjoy the game, I can support the game in a way that best fits my intentions (purchases via a cash shop, sub fee or both). I could care less about the "lottery boxes"... No one is forcing you to buy them (or the keys to open them). They usually don't enhance or increase enjoyment in the game (with the exception of the min-maxers).
While I think there are many legitimate concerns over how cash shops are stocked... I do think some players expect a high quality, entirely free experience...
Believe it or not, the gaming industry as a whole (not just MMOs) is going through a transition. Games are becoming increasingly risky and expensive to make. They're becoming exceptionally expensive to purchase. That is why we're in the beginning of an indie renaissance in addition to the big publishers talking about f2p for all genres of games.
Since the days of AO, I have hailed player generated content as the to solve end game issues. In AO all you could do is some scripting, but it showed the way forward as far as I was concerned.
But the idea of player designed content never really got going, maybe it will in this MMO which could be a real genre changer if it does.
You received 25 Agrees. You're posting some good content. Great!

Correct me if I'm wrong..............Neverwinter Nights 1 and 2 has done this before.
Though this is good news.
NWN1 and 2 was NOT a persistent open-world mmo though.
Not sure this is either. Pretty sure is more lobby based.
no its not.
Its a set of non-instanced persistent (possibly zoned by districts of the city) areas and instanced dungeons.
They must have changed direction then, as originally they tried to coin a new type of game (OMG - online multiplayer game) and stated it wouldn't be a MMO.
They did. It was supposed to be released in 2011 as Co-OP multiplayer game. It was stated that devs wanted to make an MMO but Atari wouldn't allow them. Then Atari sold cryptic to PW and they delayed game for an year and PW allowed them(funded them) to make MMO game as cryptic devs initially wanted to.
Recently, they delayed the release to 2013 as response to the game has been unprecedented and so cryptic gets more funds to polish the game into a more refined product and add PvP at launch.
Now they have open areas where you can fight monsters toghether with hundreds of players but the game is still D&D based with stress on dungeon delves with parties of 5 players.

Unfortunately although playable demos might look fun the real problem will be how Cryptic do nickle-and-dime players on the actual game release. I am betting at least a buy-to-win cash shop, and who knows maybe even a cash auction house. Cryptic are briliant at taking a game with potenital, putting it through the Cryptic blender, and, hey presto, it becomes a shadow of itself as you have to play arround cash shop and advertising.

I just hope Cryptic learns from the advice the STO UGC community has been giving them since the Foundry's closed beta! If I come to NWO and see a Foundry where I cannot: Create objects the player can pick up and place in their inventory and then utilize in the mission. Create actual scripts for NPC behavior that takes into account player actions as well as player dialog choices. Export my content out to another Author so they can use my designs and import content from others authors who wish to share their work with me. Then I'll be highly disappointed because we've been asking Cryptic for these (and more) features since 2010!
If pigs only flew. Day dream all you want about what it should be, while I agree. I'll just say that what you want is way beyond what Cryptic is capable of from the technicl standpoint. They can barely get the NPC's in their other games to preform even the most rudimentary actions. From a business standpoint the model would fail, 2 reasons.
Firstly to fabricate all the items someone might want to use in a mission would be overly labor intensive. This works in old days because the code was turned over to modders who did some fantastic stuff. Cryptic wants to monetize this they have no intention of having modders do anything.
Secondly , to be able export content to other authors gets to the whole monetization point. What you want is the original NwN, and that ain't happening ever again , unfortunately .
Disappoint is the trend in game design nowadays. Use to be that modders were what extended a games life and possibly profiblity . Now they are viewed as a profit stealing plague by the industry.

It won't be.

But people in the hype business have to hype what is available....

You can check the STO version, most likely the Neverwinter one will be similar on this matter. In STO when you finish a user-generated mission, a pop-up window comes up (but it's not mandatory, you can close it right away if you want to). In this window you can:
rate the mission (1-5, when you searching missions by quality, the result list is based on these ratings)
give a review (readable to anyone, so when you find a mission which seems interesting, you can read the reviews of other players. Also you can point out bugs, factual errors, etc to the creator in this box)
give a tip if you like (not much, only a few dilly, so it won't be the base of the creators wealth )

PRICE-After a heroic battle with pancreatic cancer, our beloved Pearl Jeanette Macris in the presence of her loving husband and family members drifted off into the arms of her Lord Jesus Christ on May 3, 2010. She was born on Aug. 18, 1949, in Price, Utah. Pearl was the only child of Robert and Eleanor Swinburne Rasmussen.
On Nov. 14, 1975, she married Paul Macris at her parents' home in Wellington, Utah. Although Pearl had no natural children, she leaves behind numerous nieces, nephews and cousins that benefitted from her love, wisdom and humor.
Pearl worked at the Sun Advocate and Carbon Hospital. As a medical transcriptionist, she deciphered the dictation of Dr. Sterling Potter and Dr. Walter Snihurowych.
She was a faithful member of Price Chapel where she sang in the choir and served on the praise team. At Prime Timer activities her cakes and cooking skills were displayed with regularity. Pearl loved the outdoors, spending time with Paul camping, fishing, and exploring on her 4-wheeler.
Pearl is survived by her loving husband of 35 years, Paul Macris; and a community of extended family and friends. She is preceded in death by her parents, Robert C. Rasmussen and Eleanor J. Swinburne Rasmussen.
Funeral service, Friday, May 7, 2010, 11 a.m., at Price Chapel-Christian Missionary Alliance, 611 Price River Drive in Price. Friends were welcomed to join the family at Price Chapel Friday one hour prior to services. Interment, Price City Cemetery. Friends are welcome at Mitchell Funeral Home daily and may share memories of Pearl at www. mitchellfuneralhome.net.
In memory of Pearl, memorial contributions may be made to either Price Chapel, 611 Price River Drive or The Gideons International, Box 383, Price, Utah 84501.

Conservative MPs have warned against accelerating the drawdown of British troops in Afghanistan after the most senior British officer in Kabul said it could fatally undermine Western military efforts.
MPs and commentators from the influential ConservativeHome.com website expressed alarm yesterday amid speculation that the Treasury is seeking to speed the removal of British forces in Helmand to save money.
Julian Brazier MP, a Conservative member of the Defence Select Committee, said: "If we pull back pre-emptively there is a real danger that the blood and treasure spent already will be lost if there is a setback to the Afghans."

Do you still have cable/satellite or have you pulled the cord?
I don't watch tv. I download.ReplyCancel
In year 12 psych we had a social experiment to see how susceptible people were to peer pressure. So we had to introduce a not oft used term/word in our social group and see if it took off. My word was "dingo". It worked! Every derogatory term for a few weeks later was dingo (took my baby)
The only thing I watch on TV is football – everything else, it's much easier to stream or download.ReplyCancel
Seven : I LOVE football (AFL). My husband hates it.
Fit dudes running around in short shorts? Yes please!
After switching on the telly and seeing Police Academy 5, and another "reality" show, I've decided to read books, listen to vinyl and masturbate.ReplyCancel
We have satellite here, but only the roommate watches it. The final straw was when I tried to watch "Catfish" on MTV. It had a 40 minute runtime, in a 70 minute timeslot. Thirty minutes of ads, and I gotta pay for that? Hell no!
Plus, gold ol' rabbit-ears TV is so much better. I get like 25 channels, stuff like PBS and channels that run old shows (with 10 minutes of ads, not 30!).ReplyCancel
What's Roku? It sounds like mangaReplyCancel
Zeeky: when we have kids we can tell them about the good old days when we didn't have Facebook and we had tv antennasReplyCancel
I have DirecTV, but just bought daughter a ROKU for her room (refuse to pay for another box)I'm using it as an experiment if I can cut the cord (trash the dish?). I already have Netflix that she can stream and the other channels are not too expensive..seeing if there is a cost savings. I beat up DTV all the time on pricing so my bill is only $62 a month for DVR and 2 other boxes. My prob is that antenna doesn't get all the channels where I live in the sticksReplyCancel
If they put HBO, SHO, MAX on smart Tv's I'll only keep cable TV during football season…then again there is an app for me to watch football so I guess I'm just waiting for premium cable to catch upReplyCancel
Lurker, I just beat up DTV to move my plan to $40 and then they said I would get a free DVR only to find out there were monthly fees (bitch that ain't free in my book) and $20 shipping. The whole idea was to spend less money not more. I may beat them up some more later though.
Looking into Roku now but I have Xfinity for internet and it's in and out constantly. Where I live I amazingly fall into -not commercial, not residential twilight zone for Comcast.ReplyCancel
LOL, Rach! Although they're trying to rewrite that part of history…
On late-nite TV I keep seeing a commercial for this revolutionary product that allows you to pick up hi-def, digital broadcast television for FREE. They've even made a half-hour infomercial for this astounding invention.
It's a TV antenna.ReplyCancel
Zeeky: at Uni our telly had a bent coat hanger to pick up better reception. I'd like to see them infomercial that!ReplyCancel
I have cable and no interest in giving it up.
I had DirectTV for 2-3 years and it straight sucked. Wind, rain, any inclement weather and it went out. I think all the military planes flying over head F'd up reception too.
Then take into account that they said I live outside the NYC area, so they blacked out the Yankee games, when I was paying $10/month to get the YES Network via the Sports Pak.
DirectTV is so shitty that I pay money to the horrible Dolan Family, who run the Knicks and Rangers so horribly that I became a Nets and Devils fan.ReplyCancel
I'm a tv addict so we have Comcast and every channel. I hate Comcast but I hated Dish even more. Unfortunately my man works for a competing company and we would be able to get a huge discount but it is not offered in our area yet. I really hate Comcast but I hate not having cable even more so I'm stuck.ReplyCancel
I can't quit my DirecTV. I love it and my DVR. We are not offered cable where I'm at. @Count Here, our DTV rarely ever goes out. I'm amazed at some of the thunderstorms and it still runs!ReplyCancel
Theresa, through who do you get internet, home phone and cable for $50.00 a month? If you don't mind my asking?ReplyCancel
I love the football ticket on DirectTV. We used to always get the AZ Cardinals on cable. I don't care what it cost and in nearly ten years my dusk only went screwy once for a short time when it rained really hard.ReplyCancel
Dish not dusk, ugh.ReplyCancel
Still have cable.ReplyCancel
I have Time Warner Cable and HATE it. I've tried to get a better deal and they aren't interested in customer loyalty. So, I'm slowly working on cutting the cord. I just got a Roku and have Amazon Prime and Netflix. I plan to keep internet and one box for basic programming.ReplyCancel
Just bunny ears, best move ever. We get ABC, NBC, CBS, some random inspiration channel and some shopping channel. Would totally still have cable if they didn't want to charge over 100 bucks a month, we just cannot justify that. Plus, I hate paying for all the channels I will never watch.ReplyCancel
Same as KrisReplyCancel
I have something called 'SKY' in New Zealand … it's hideously expensive for what it is though and I'm considering pulling the plug as I'm not home often enough to watch it.ReplyCancel
On a similar question from a few years ago, I had mentioned that we just ued Hulu and over-the-air broadcasts. Since then, we have worked out a deal with our neighbors to share their satellite while they share our internet. I still watch more Online TV than satellite, but it is sometimes nice to have TV on in the background. We are just lucky out ISP doesn't have data usage limits.ReplyCancel

The first public building erected in Orangeville was a log structure built in 1880.
It was located on the southwest corner of 100 West and Center Street.
On May 1, 1949, the Rock Creek Camp Daughters of the Utah Pioneers, in Orangeville, dedicated a monument on that spot to commemorate that first public building.
After 56 years, the monument is receiving some needed renovation from the members of the Rock Canyon Camp DUP. On May 16, work began to improve the site, and several members were on hand to witness the sand blasting of the monument in preparation for repairs.
Those present were: Myrlene Sitterud, captain; Talma Peacock, first vice-captain; Georgia Gardner, second vice-captain; Elda Hinkins, chaplain; Ann Bell, secretary; Earlene Allen, membership; Lorna Davis, historian; and Ruth Whimpey.
Manpower and machinery to complete the sandblasting was provided by David Hinkins.

"I really wanted to love these shoes, but they run very small. At least a half to a full size smaller. It's weird because I purchased a pair of similar Bed Stu loafers at Anthropologie and they fit fine. Unfortunately, I will have to return."

Very cute to look at
"I was super excited to get these (I ordered online) but they have yet to be worn. They run at least a half to whole size smaller. They look amazing though. I'll be returning them for a larger size. Can't wait to wear them!"

Epiphone's version of the Gibson classic J-200, known as the "King of the Flat Tops", a guitar that has graced stages across the world in the hands of musical legends from Elvis to Emmylou. This modernized EJ-200SCE, features a jumbo maple body with a select spruce top, a stylish mustache bridge, gold hardware, crown inlays on the fingerboard, and a huge sound easily amplified by the an eSonic2 preamp with built-in tuner and NanoFlex/NanoMag pickups. Case sold separately.
A body full of grace
The EJ-200SCE's construction features a solid spruce top with select maple, back and sides and a striking cutaway that provides you better fret access than its predecessor. This 25.5" scale beauty also comes with Epiphone's SlimTaper select maple neck which helps give you a smoother ride up and down the rosewood fingerboard. The rosewood fingerboard has vintage style pearloid crown inlays and a 1.68" nut along with our iconic Sloped Dovewing Epiphone headstock with premium die-cast gold 14:1 tuners.
A fresh spin on classic tone
The tone from the EJ-200SCE's select maple top is enhanced by the classic rosewood "mustache" bridge and synthetic bone saddle. A tortoise-style pickguard with a unique dandelion art pattern helps round-out the EJ-200SCE's iconic look. Thanks to it's combination of tonewoods and construction, the EJ-200SCE provides you with a solid, yet balanced tone which lets rhythm guitarists and singer-songwriters feel like they're being backed up by a band even when they're playing a set pared down. The rich and complex tones the EJ-200SCE will truly inspire musicians everywhere over and over again.
Plug it in, plug it in
Taking the J-200 to whole new levels sonically, the EJ200CE features the Epiphone eSonic2 preamp system which features a built-in, easy-to-use tuner. And when you're playing, you don't have to worry about any accidental popping as the eSonic2 automatically mutes your output. When you push in the tuner button and unplug your guitar, it also keeps it "pop" free. The EJ-200SCE also provides you with tone-shaping options - NanoFlex Tone, NanoMag Tone, Stereo Blend - as well as Master Volume, and a Low Battery indicator and a Phase switch to help eliminate unwanted feedback. The eSonic2 is powered by two 2032 lithium watch batteries which are not only lightweight, but also last significantly longer life than more traditional, heavier 9V batteries.
Revolutionary stereo pickups
The EJ-200SCE features a compensated saddle with Shadow Germany's proprietary NanoFlex, low-impedance pickup. The NanoFlex's unique flexible sensing material has integrated active electronics that picks up string vibration as well as top and body vibrations for a truly acoustic tone without the harshness usually associated with piezos. As a compliment, there is a NanoMag pickup mounted at the harmonic-rich end of the fingerboard. It features three Samarian-Cobalt magnets and an integrated active circuit to capture all the highs and lows, including a wide range of harmonics. The preamp allows you to chose 1/4" mono output blending both pickups or 1/4" stereo output splitting the two pickups, giving you incredible flexibility and opportunities to create the perfect acoustic tone live.
Check the drop-down menu to the right to select Black, Natural or Vintage Sunburst finish.
Pro Coverage gives you added warranty protection for your new gear. Stepping in where the manufacturer's "normal wear and tear" coverage ends, our Pro Coverage program offers you upgraded coverage if your product ever fails Read More.

I was so surprised and delighted when I first picked up my Epiphone EJ200CE. It has a great warm sound with clean hi's after I re-strung it with Elixir polyweb electric strings. (it is Acoustic/Electric)The tone controls came in to the rescue with my Marshal Amp. Anyone from beginers to seasoned advanced players will be quite amazed with the sound, price and quality of this guitar. Oh by the way, I never write reviews. This guitar made me do it!

This is my second review on this guitar. I finally returned it to Guitar Center, and they were very nice about it, and gave me a full refund. So no problem there whatsoever.
Within a couple days of receiving the guitar, I noticed that the pick guard was bubbling up and actually detaching from the face of the guitar.
After having the guitar for around a month I started having feedback problems on the low b notes on the 6th and 5th strings. That was the final factor that made me decide to not purchase another one.
It's too bad, as it is a beautiful instrument, easy to play, with good action. If you get a good one, you will probably love it.
Once again, it's worth mentioning that Guitar Center was very good to deal with. I can't imagine purchasing a guitar from anyone else.

Comments about Epiphone EJ-200SCE Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
This is a beautiful guitar. I bought this as a gift for my mom for Christmas, and i couldn't help but play it until I gave it to her :-P I will definitely be buying myself one of these guitars in the near future. It's perfect in size. It's not small, it's a pretty good sized guitar. Perfect size. The only bad thing I have to say is that it had a scratch. One that to me, was noticeable. When you buy something, you expect it to me pretty close to perfect. Other than that... Great guitar.

Comments about Epiphone EJ-200SCE Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
I have owned many guitars over the years both acoustic and electric. Some have been very good, others quite bad. I've had my eye on one of these for years but financially was never able to pull the trigger. Yesterday I saw one at my local store that had come in used. I couldn't believe it. It was perfect. Vintage sunburst without one mark on it, proper set up with several upgrades(new Tusq saddle and nut), and even a hardshell case!! I immediately traded a Yamaha acoustic(which was a very good guitar but with laminate top and sides) and was able to bring it home. I literally could not put it down. It is everything I've ever wanted in an acoustic guitar. Deep, rich, warm tone from the bass and bright highs and mids. The neck is simply(for me)the best I've ever felt on an acoustic guitar. It is a very big body guitar, but then I am a very big body human, so it is extremely comfortable for me to hold and play for hours. Sounds awesome unplugged, and even better hooked up to my acoustic amp. Also, the guys at my local store(Boardman,Ohio) Josh, Matt, Ryan, Steve, et al, are some of the nicest guys out there. If you are looking at this guitar don't hesitate. Buy it!!
Comments about Epiphone EJ-200SCE Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
Great guitar much more than I expected for the money sounds great and plays easy the guys I play with have guitars that cost twice as much and they love it.
Comments about Epiphone EJ-200SCE Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
I have a Gibson Pro and this guitar does a great job for day to day practice. It's plays well through a Mashall AS100 amp. The pick up scheme is great for a personal studio feel or live small stage action.

Comments about Epiphone EJ-200SCE Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
I LOVE This guitar... I have around 15 guitars and most of them are the high dollar stuff. Gibson Paul Reed Smith and Fender Taylor. But I have to say I love my Epiphone guitars. I have two Hummingbirds a straight acoustic, and an electric acoustic. But this is my first EJ-200 And It's now my favorite among the acoustics.
It arrived very fast and after unboxing it all I had to do was adjust the action a bit VIA the truss rod and I put a new set of strings on it, and went straight into the studio with it. It is already on one of the songs for my third album project. I got the natural color one and it is beautiful.
Comments about EJ-200SCE Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
So let me start by saying, this may very well be one of the most beautiful guitars I've ever seen, beyond that it sounds incredible, the neck is very well shaped and super comfortable, the electronics are very nice. All in all this is a great guitar at a great price.

All About Window Regulators & Motors
A window regulator is the mechanical assembly behind a door panel that is responsible for moving a glass window up or down along a guided track. Basic window regulators which have been around since enclosed automobiles were first introduced 100 years ago are operated by a hand crank, and power window regulators use an electric motor to do the work of moving the glass along its path. In this article, we'll discuss the basic designs of window regulators and how they work.

Comfortable and stylish
"I got the brown ones, they're really cute and comfortable! I walk a lot and ride my bike in them. They do stretch a little bit and are slightly wide, I have to pull the velcro all the way through. Overall really comfy and worthwhile."
