This top is in excellent condition.
No having to deal with shoddy wiring or bunk rear windows.
Dropping the price to $500 - I'm open to offers. The Jeep doesn't see winter and I don't want to store this another year.
Tough to get a good picture of it. It's blocked in the garage.
It is as advertised - as near to new condition as a used '03-'06 hardtop gets.
But if you're serious about buying I'll pull it out of the garage for you to come have a look at or I'll pull it out on the weekend when I have some help and take some pictures.
fair enough,
where are you located?
Located in Drayton - just north of Waterloo.
Where are you located? If you're a ways away it probably makes most sense for me to pull it out on the weekend and take a pile of pictures.
might be intrested. not to sure how hard it is to replace hinges on the back window. buddy just broke mine at work trying to crawl threw.
2003 TJ 6 straight 2" body lift. Newbie and yes its a jeep thing.
Yeah, find out about those hinges and let me know.
I work at University of Guelph so it's close at least.
yeah, that seems like a better idea. i live in scarborough and it would be quite the drive.
Let me kno when you have time to grab some pics of the thing. if it makes it easyer you can text me them whenever 519 820 2339
Okay, I'll pull it out this weekend and grab some pics.
I'll just post them in this thread.
looks good. just don't have the cash. probably just going to buy the brackets.
how flexible are you with the price?
if youre able to do 350, ill pick it up this friday!
I'm flexible on price.
I'll pm you - check your pm's.
Hey still got it?

CBRsYs is a cloud based solution which enables centralized authorities at the Karnataka Consumer Durables Distributors Association to validate and manage vital financial compliances in terms of cheque bounce report generation and inflow/outflow tracking.
The primary stakeholders involved in the transactional processes of the KCDDA include retailers and distributors. These stakeholders engage in regular cheque exchange for financial transactions. Because of cheque bounces as well as invalid cheques, compliance and revenue issues were at an all time high. What was needed is a solution which could automize the process of issue detection in the cheque exchange process and enable the stakeholders to view the track of the same.
In order to provide ease of access, this application has been built with a mobile-first approach. Entire application can be used seamlessly across devices. Since, the app needed real-time notification system, SMS API was integrated.
The stakeholders involved weren't used to utilising complicated application user interfaces. So we used a very minimal design approach which behaved as an open portal for tracker viewing and acting while close to traditional spreadsheet views which the stakeholders could easily use. Furthermore the audience being very traditional in their outlook, we kept the colors utilized to bare minimum pastel shades.

New Hampshire Better Buildings - Final Interim Report
With $10 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Better Buildings Neighborhood Program, the NH Better Buildings program was established as an initiative that initially empowered the three "Beacon Communities" of Berlin, Nashua and Plymouth to achieve transformative energy savings and reductions in fossil fuel use and greenhouse gases through deep energy retrofits and complementary sustainable energy solutions. The program also enabled those Communities to provide leadership to other communities around the state as "beacons" of energy efficiency. The goal of the program was to reduce energy use by a minimum of 15% through energy efficiency upgrades in residential and commercial buildings in the communities. The program expanded statewide in April 2012 by issuing a competitive solicitation for additional commercial projects non-profit, and municipal energy efficiency projects from any community in the state, and a partnership with the state's utility-run, ratepayer-funded residential Home Performance with ENERGY STAR® (HPwES) program. The NH Better Buildings program was administered by the New Hampshire Office of Energy and Planning (OEP) and managed by the NH Community Development Finance Authority (CDFA). The program started in July 2010 and the last projects funded with American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA) funds were completedmore »

"Your Day... Your Way."
There are many ways to get married and have a meaningful ceremony. The couples I work with all have different needs, ideas and life styles. A wedding ceremony should be a reflection of how the bride and groom perceive their relationship, their individuality and their own beliefs, values and tastes.
Wedding ceremonies can be outside or inside. They can be in a home, a restaurant, an office, a park, on a boat, in a hot air balloon, or anywhere you want. A couple may write their own vows or they can follow a sample text. The wedding ceremony can be serious or humorous, romantic or simple. It can be long or short. It can be informal or formal.
I support religious freedom and freedom from religion. You do not have to conform to anyone's expectation except your own of the perfect wedding. I support you in your right to make your own decisions about the content and style of your wedding ceremony. There is no one "perfect" ceremony. Each ceremony is splendid and unique.
A wedding ceremony is an event that marks our passage from one major stage of our lives to a new stage. The process of planning a wedding can result in much joy aswell as some anxiety. I am here to help you achieve your goals.

Manchester City defender Pablo Zabaleta admits teammate Mario Balotelli can be infuriating.
Zabaleta concedes Balotelli has a temperament problem.
"If you could connect his quality to his brain he'd be one of the best players, believe me," said Zabaleta, in an interview on City's review of the season DVD.
"He could score the best goal in the history of football or he could get a red card five minutes after coming on to the pitch," added Zabaleta. "You play football from your feet to your head but his brain is gone."

MANCHESTER City playmaker Samir Nasri believes this year's Champions League clash with Barcelona could be "totally different" from 12 months ago.
Nasri felt the Premier League winners paid too much respect to the four-time European champions when they met in the last 16 of the elite competition a year ago. Barca won 4-1 on aggregate, but City have a swift chance for revenge having been paired with the Catalan giants at the same stage for a second successive season.
Having come through a tough group phase in dramatic circumstances, Nasri now believes City are a much tougher proposition than they were 12 months ago. The Frenchman, speaking at City's pre-match press conference, said: "I think we respected them too much but, at the same time, last year didn't have enough experience to compete with a club like this, with its history. They know how to deal with this kind of game. They know how to win the Champions League.
"For us it was the first time that we went through the group stage. I think it was just too much of a big game for us. We were not ready. But I think this year is totally different. We know what we are capable of. We are going to respect them as players but we are not going to be scared."
Like last year, City host the first leg, with star-studded Barca at the Etihad Stadium tonight.
Manager Manuel Pellegrini adopted an uncharacteristically defensive approach last time and the move backfired with the Spanish side running out 2-0 winners after the sending off of Martin Demichelis. They completed the job with a 2-1 win at the Nou Camp in a clash that saw City have another man dismissed in Pablo Zabaleta. City overcame the disappointment by going on to win the Premier League but while Nasri is hopeful of an improved showing this time, he insists revenge is not the prime motivating factor.
He said: "No, we want to beat Barcelona because we want to go as far as possible in the Champions League, not because we want revenge. For us it is a different game. We are a better team, physically, than last year. Last year before the first game we had a couple of players injured.
"Everything will be different. We have more experience about this competition than last year. It is just a matter of winning the game, not about revenge."
Nasri was one of the stars as City salvaged this season's Champions League campaign with dramatic back-to-back wins over Bayern Munich and Roma.
City had looked to be heading out after collecting just two points from four games but Sergio Aguero changed the picture with a sensational hat-trick against the Germans.
Nasri was then on target as City completed their rescue act to win 2-0 in Rome without stars Aguero, Yaya Toure and Vincent Kompany. Prior to those results there had been an apparent indifference from City fans towards the Champions League but Nasri is hopeful that situation is changing. He said: "We have had a lot of success in the Premier League, so the fans are really passionate about that. In the Champions League we need to create our history to have a special relationship with the fans. A game like Barcelona can be a big victory between us and the fans in the competition."
Pellegrini also believes City are in a better position to beat Barcelona than they were a year ago. The Chilean courted controversy himself after the first leg 12 months ago when he raged at referee Jonas Eriksson over perceived injustices. Pellegrini said: "I think that last year was different to this year. We arrived at this stage of the Champions League after playing 19 games in two months, and I don't think it was our best moment. But I hope this year we will do it after not playing so many games. I think that our team is in a good moment, although we also recognise we are going to be playing against a very strong team."
City must again make do without Toure as he completes his three-match ban for his dismissal against CSKA Moscow in November. James Milner is available after overcoming the knee injury that kept him out of Saturday's 5-0 win over Newcastle.
Barcelona arrive in Manchester after a shock 1-0 home defeat against Malaga, but coach Luis Enrique has a fully fit squad at his disposal. Xavi could get a start after missing the loss to Malaga but his spot in midfield may again go to Ivan Rakitic, who went on as a second-half substitute on Saturday. Javier Mascherano will likely return , while Luis Suarez will make his first appearance in England since his move from Liverpool.

Food for Thought
A few years ago, I found myself in front of my stack of vitamins. It was the right time to take them. I had the water to take them. It made me feel really better to take them. And I looked at them. And looked some more. And I walked away. I didn't take them. The second I was out of the kitchen, the awareness hit me instantly. I didn't want to feel better. There was a force pulling me away from feeling my best. There was some unknown payoff I was getting from keeping myself from feeling too good.
It reminded me, years ago, at the height of my weight (320 pounds) I was asked a question by my nutritionist-psychologist that changed my entire paradigm and understanding of life and most importantly of myself. He asked: "quel benefice recois-tu en restant grosse?" because it happened in my native Paris. "what value was I getting from staying fat?" I about fell off my chair. "No value" was my initial response. "Wait a minute" he said, "we don't do anything, unless we get some value out of it. Unconscious, maybe. But we wouldn't do it if we were not getting something out of it. "Human nature" he said.
That was some food for thought, to say the least. Are you meaning to tell me that this enormous-unhealthy-unable to fit in any clothes-source of so much pain- body was giving me enough value that I was choosing to stay like that?
That was such a novel idea. Not taking my vitamins was the same thing. There was some secret reason I wanted to keep my life at a lesser level of happiness and wellbeing. I was getting a lot of mileage out of that. I searched deep in my soul for both these answers. And all the ones in that category. Being married to someone I was not thriving with. Not meditating, knowing full well that it would give me a less good day. Sabotaging every relationship that was uplifting and keeping the ones that asked less of me. Stressing from being late when I had an appointment. Eating the kind of foods that zapped my energy and made me want to stay in bed for the day. Keeping a job that didn't make my heart sing. Not sleeping enough to be able to have a big life.
Small things. Big things.
I was doing it everywhere. I was limiting my quotient for happy, healthy and energetic. I was making choices to keep me down. To keep me in a life that is only "that" good. I still do it. Less and less. I've learned to recognize I am doing it and I have built tricks to help me "catch and release" the behaviors that are in that category.
I did it this week. I own Shape House. I sweat for free any day, any time. I have the keys and can come before hours, after hours. I can have my favorite bed, my favorite water, my favorite TV show. I can release lactic acid and not feel any soreness after boxing. I can get a skin that people comment on. I can sleep better, think better and look better. Like a million bucks. And yet I didn't do it. Not this week.
But I will do it today. Because now I told you. Because it's out. If you run into me in the hallway…please help me remember. Because taking care of myself, fully, deeply, really is my deepest longing. Because when I am at my best, I have so much more to contribute. It really is worth it.
What will you do today to shift that trend, if you have some of it? What can you do right now? Drink some water? Turn off your computer and go for a walk? Call a dear friend and share your wins of the week? Take a nap? Be on time for your sweat?
A friend of mine told me years ago to take care of myself so I could take care of others better. I like that. That is worth it. I will take my vitamins and I will sweat today.

Shortens the bicycle chain : guide
- Change chain
- Squeeze
- Insert chain
- breakup
bicycle, without changing gear, the chain made detachable.One unit has a special latch.Therefore, the circuit change them is easy.But bikes with multiple speeds, detachable link prevents any change of gear.Therefore, they do not have it on.Sometimes, the chain is very stretched, and then begins to slip through the teeth of the sprocket.Climbing with a chain on the hill activity is not easy.Also, the chain may break, although this is fairly rare.And when put smaller and larger sprockets, the chain to make shorter or longer than necessary even equipped with a special lock.So as to shorten the chain on a bicycle?To do this you will need a squeeze for bicycle chains.

Hello, all! I hope the weekend treated you well. I have been staring down this rainy, cold Monday in the face determined to be productive. I always find these to be the hardest days to sit down and feel accomplished, however I am slowly but surely getting to a good place. Maybe it's the extra energy from eating well and exercising- either way, I am happy to be making progress!
Last year when we moved, I began to get this itch to just clear out the house. We were a year into marriage and already had an attic, basement and garage full of stuff. So.much.stuff. I remember just standing there staring it at. I felt so discouraged by what I had allowed in my home. There were lots of contributing factors to this. We had brought together two furnished apartments, received two carloads of wedding gifts and also had piles of hand-me-downs from family and friends. In a word: it was a mess. I hated tripping over boxes and old tables and chairs. It pushed me beyond frustrated to angry. The moment I found myself yelling at stuff I knew something had to change. So as we packed up to make the move, I looked at what we had and gave each item careful consideration. From that point on, only items that I 1. used on a regular basis 2. really cared about came with us.
Somewhere along the way, I became really attached to stuff growing up. At 25, I felt like a mini hoarder. It was the no-don't-get-rid-of-that-I-wore-that-on-my-first-day-of-school syndrome. Every item had a story and I felt a need to make more memories with every piece I brought into my house. It was all too much. So this year, I am working on changing my mindset. I believe there's value in loving the items in your home, but there has to be a balance. When you love because it's filling a hole, that's a problem- a huge problem that I struggled with.
Like a lot of people, I love a good bargain. Fortunately, I'm really good at finding them too. Which, for day to day living is a good thing! But when you couple that with a heart that is searching for wholeness from stuff, it's a slippery slope. I have a really hard time passing up a good deal so that fact coupled with my ability to often find the best prices has caused a lot of trouble to both my soul and bank account in the past. With this self reflection in mind, I had several points to come to terms with.
1. Small amounts repeated over time equal big amounts. This probably sounds like a no-brainer but when you're shopping in the moment, it doesn't seem to compute. A $10 purchase where you're saving $20 seems like the obvious choice. However, make four of those purchases over the course of a month and your purchase costs more than the original prices.
2. When you make flippant decisions on purchases, you won't value the item in the long run. If you take away anything from this post, carry this with you! Saving money is awesome and I'm all for it! However, when you only have saving on the brain, you'll begin coming home with bags full of stuff that looks great in the moment, but will lose it's luster after a short time.
3. Sometimes, buying cheap means sacrificing quality. This is really big when it comes to clothes and even food. Think about it. If you're trying to save money so you go and buy a cheap $5 tshirt that ends up losing it's shape after only a few washes, you're going to end up re-purchasing that shirt maybe a quick month after you purchased it. Repeat this cycle and you're buying a new shirt every month. So, at the end of the year you've spent $60 on your $5 shirt. Yikes. Now, this is just an example. There's obviously no way to give an exact formula to bargain shopping. But let's say it's half the amount and you spend $30 on the shirt. You could have purchased the same shirt from a different brand for maybe $25 and had it all year long. So you'll save money, not to mention the time you spend running around re-purchasing.
4. It's a big world out there, and it's always going to be full of more bargains and cute pieces. This is a hard truth for me. I will see something in a store or online and immediately think, "that's it! that's the perfect thing for that spot and I'll never ever find something as perfect as that!". When the reality is, I probably will find another perfect something some other time. Plus, it will probably look totally different than the first item so there's really no way to keep up with the constant overflow of stuff out there. There will always be adorable, perfect pieces out there.
These are tough concepts to take into account. Positive ones, though. So with those ideas in mind, I have tried to re-assess how and where I spend my money.
First of all, I want to start by bringing less stuff into my house. I want to be careful about what I'm purchasing and to be buying with intention. This means staying out of stores unless I have the intention of buying something specific. This also means that if I see something extra from the list while I'm out, I need to give it some time and thought before springing for it. I need to go home, think about it for at least a week and only go back if I truly have a use or proper space for it in my home. If I can't think of a good use for it, I need to let it go.
The next thing leads me to the new series I am starting about investment pieces. I want to become the type of person who gives careful thought to what I purchase but who also purchases items that are going to last the test of time. This applies to both quality and my affection towards the piece. I have found that when I have to save money for a special item, I tend to hold on to it for longer since I have actually had to work hard to get it. Since they are usually a bit more expensive, the pieces are better quality and can last longer physically as well.
This year, I want to holistically assess my life when it comes to everything I bring into my house. I will use this series as a way to take a good hard look at what I have, decide whether it's something I really need and to purge the stuff I've accumulated that is just not useful. Hand in hand with that, I want to make lists of investment pieces to work towards in all areas of my life. Moving forward, I want to work towards these goals to break the pattern of buy, waste, give away, repeat. I want to have purpose for my life in all areas including my home.
I will start posting weekly updates to this series next week. I hope you all join me in this journey to find fullness in all parts of my life.
Until next time!

WITH ALL APOLOGIES to the recent newcomers, who I'm sure are very good: If someone opens another fucking pizza restaurant I'm going to lose my goddamn shit.
Like a Frozen-loving toddler who still can't "Let It Go," this town has developed an infantile obsession with opening pizza joints ["Pizza Overload!" Feature, April 1]. Pizza is great, and we were definitely due a "second wave" of great spots after Ken's Artisan and Apizza Scholls blazed a trail. But as a new year dawns, let's work on bringing in more ambitious high-end dining, or even simple world cuisines still struggling to take off (a decent soup dumpling, anyone?).
Portland has a superduperfantastic food scene, as if you haven't noticed. But balancing our national celebrity with fostering the culture that got us here in the first place is going to be ongoing food for thought in 2016.
And since no one asked us anyway, here's a few Food Year's Resolutions that the Merc's food and drink team would love to see our bars and restaurants adopt (none of them involve losing weight):
Andrea Damewood
Mercury food critic
• See above rant regarding pizza (especially wood-fired).
• Resolve to keep up the trend in friendly service: Coquine, the American Local, and Taylor Railworks have all stepped up the front-of-house game. More of that, please.
• Stop trying to plate small portions on huge platters. It doesn't look all that pretty and just reminds eaters how you should probably get more than a few lettuce leaves for $15.
• Stop making fancy hotdogs. They're expensive, and, for the most part, abysmal.
• Pop-ups: Resolve to keep making great food and then settle into a permanent spot. Nodoguro, Coquine, and Nomad come to mind. Mae, the Southern food pop-up from chef Maya Lovelace, should resolve to be next.
• Resolve to let us keep peepin' the action. Love, love, love the open chef's counters at new spots like Renata and Taylor Railworks (and the old ones at Le Pigeon and Imperial).
• Resolve to quit freaking out *every time* an old restaurant closes. Some of them sucked. Resolve to save your indignation for the ones that were truly great.
Heather Arndt Anderson
Mercury Eat This! writer and author of Portland: A Food Biography
• I'd love it if every brunch place in town would stop serving shakshuka. [Editor's note: This stands as a warning to anyone trying to pull this off that isn't Tasty n Sons.]
• Also, I don't need to know the name and star sign of the farmer that grew everyfuckingingredient.
• While we're at it, let's resolve to use any green besides arugula for every burger, sandwich, and salad.
Thomas Ross
Mercury Lush Life writer
• Resolve to get rid of "house" everything on cocktail menus, especially tonic. Resolve to just buy tonic water. I'm not so into the history of cocktails that I want a brown gin and tonic that tastes exclusively of tree bark.
• Resolve to stop infusing everything. Somebody made that gin, and they didn't finish and go, "Oh shit! I forgot to add the cucumber!"
• Resolve to instate one of those "just throw your peanut shells wherever" policies.
• Your menu is not the Paris Review. Resolve to find another outlet for your literary aspirations.
• Resolve to stop making veggie burgers that are better than your beef burger. The real burger should be better; this is just a common courtesy.
• Resolve to put your goddamn hours on your goddamn homepage.
• Call your parents more.
Chris Onstad
former Mercury food critic
• Though our deeply impaired national digestion calls in agony for acidic foods, I feel that the ubiquitous use of kimchi has gone a bit long in the tooth. The novelty has dissipated up Burnside and over the hill into the 'burbs; we are nearly at the point in its digression that McDonald's will feature Hot Kimchi Macs and soft-serves redolent of fermented oyster. Please, chef: The next time kimchi pops to mind as the missing "it" factor for your next dish, check your calendar. It is no longer the 'aughts.
Courtney Ferguson
Mercury copy chief
• SUPER IMPORTANT: Have a website that includes name, address, hours, and menu for your restaurant or bar. Why not include your happy hour info while you're at it?

Parish Ministries
These are just a few of the ways you can support fellow parishioners and our guests – check out the ways you can offer your gift by clicking the buttons on the right.
Maybe something catches your eye and you sense a calling?
Please call the church office at (703) 455-2500 if you wish to volunteer and we will put you in touch with the leader for any of these ministries.
The Altar Guild works behind the scenes to assist the clergy by preparing everything needed at the altar and in the church for the celebration of Eucharist, and services such as baptism, weddings, and funerals. They ensure all things for the service, from the vessels and linens – and pretty much anything needed – is ready!
Flower Guild members arrange flowers for services on a rotating basis. We also decorate the church for Christmas and Easter. New members are always welcome and training is provided. Altar flowers are given as memorials or thanksgivings and are printed in the service bulletins.
The Prayer Guild prays not only for those on the intercessory prayer list, the sick and departed, but every member of the congregation. We believe that all are in need of God's grace and mercy. Our sense of community is strengthened when we pray for one another, in good times and in bad. God knows our needs even when we don't. And thanksgivings are always in order.
Eucharist Ministers serve at the altar, assisting clergy with distributing wine during Communion, reading the day's scripture when necessary (in the absence of a Lector), and leading the Prayers of the People.
Eucharist Visitors take Communion following the service to the homebound or those in hospital as prearranged. They lead prayers with others, distribute bread and wine, and are the face or connection of St. Andrew's on any given Sunday to parishioners. As said in the parting words from clergy to the Eucharist Visitor, "we send you with our prayers as we do share one body and one cup."
Reading of scripture in community is a part of ancient Christian worship and so we continue this tradition. Lectors, or readers, are important in helping lead worship.
Sunday Greeters provide a welcome to guests, newcomers, and parishioners every Sunday – and whenever we meet! You don't have to know all the ins and outs of the church; you just need a willingness to say "hi, welcome" to others. You know the feeling of being warmly greeted in a strange place – this is what you can offer to others!
Perhaps you are willing to take a bag of bread and a welcome packet to a recent visitor or guest? It doesn't require a lot of time or for you to know everything about the church. All it takes is your willingness to say "Welcome to St. Andrew's!" to a recent newcomer.
When parishioners or newcomers might be in need of a meal, this group springs into action and delivers a home-cooked meal with a simple reminder that St. Andrew's is thinking of them.
Ushers are often the first person you meet at church and we invite you to this important ministry of welcome, as we all can use a hand – and the ushers are usually the first to give theirs! Ushers not only hand out bulletins, they welcome guests and point the way to classrooms and all the places newcomers need to know.
Like fabric squares transformed into a quilt or yarn knitted into a sweater, the bonds of fellowship are woven into the diverse projects of this group. Tuesday Morning Stitchers create caring quilts for the chronically ill and homebound, as well as baby quilts for the newest members of St. Andrew's parish family. The group has lots of fun reviewing books and movies, sharing vacation photos, and debating where to go for lunch while working on group or individual projects. Bring your project and join them as they are always looking for new stitchers!
St. Andrew's is always looking for parishioners who help with minor projects around the church campus. Thanks to the help of our dedicated mowing ministry, the grounds of St. Andrew's are mowed on a regular basis. Crews of three or four parishioners rotate mowing the campus of St. Andrew's on Saturday mornings from late spring through early fall.
The Junior Warden also schedules parish spring and fall clean-up days when parishioners are asked to bring their gloves, rakes, and brooms, to give St. Andrew's a regular sprucing up.
A very sacred place on the St. Andrew's campus is our Memorial Garden. Parish members, or their immediate family members, are interred in the Garden.

Girls read manga larger numbers than they read comic books, despite what the two have in common. Some of this is image — manga (and anime) fans tend to be seen as cool, forward-thinking kids, while comic book fans evoke the Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons (regardless of the truth of either of these stereotypes). Some it is practical — girls can feel more comfortable going into airy bookstores than navigating scary comic book stores. And some of it is the style — the "cute" factor of manga cannot be ignored. The expressive line work and beautiful characters are much more appealing to women than the testosterone-filled pages of superhero comics.
Granted, all of this is just a surface reading of the reasons why, but ultimately, manga manages to produce series that have plots that are more accessible to women. It may be a shame that girls will read manga that will never touch comics, but in the end, it's better than these girls reading neither.
Still, shôjo doesn't get much love in the press covering anime and manga, due to its blatant appeal to women (which isn't to say boys don't read it or watch it). Shôjo encompasses a broad range, from romance to horror to action, but it's too often passed over for fare like Dragonball Z or mecha series (no matter how deep they are).
So it was refreshing to see Animerica devote its Sept. '03 issue to shôjo. While the issue may be off of news stands at this point, the main article can be read online, giving information on the history and conventions of shôjo. The magazine itself features articles on yuri and yaoi, as well as a list of the best shôjo titles. While the articles just scratch the surface of a large topic, it's a great resource for beginners and it's great to see shôjo get the respect it deserves.
The Sept. '03 issue of Animerica can be purchased online for the cover price of $4.95 USD.

Tide Pool
- Artist: Lara Michell
- Genre: Rock
- Release Date: 12/28/2004
'From the watercolor cover (by Michell's sister, Jillanne) through the clear production to the well-tendered precious musical boxes inside, Lara Michell's TIDE POOL is a thing of bountiful beauty and after a bit of a local dry spell, this disc is one long luxurious drink. Gulp it down.' -- Anodyne, February, 1998 'Carmina Piranha guitarist Lara Michell has crafted one of the most intelligent and emotionally affecting albums in years. Most of the songs are buoyed by melodic acoustic and ambient electric guitars that dance around one another, creating an infectious swath of sound.' -- The Rocket, September 1998 'Lara Michell slowly shifts her soundscapes as if she were giving a tour of an abandoned house that has many rooms, each with it's own eerie history.' -- Programming Magazine, NACA, April 2000 'Though best known for her role as guitarist/co-vocalist for Carmina Piranha, Lara Michell is an amazing artist in her own right. Her elliptical tales have the feeling of lucid dreams that beg to be revisited.' -- Willamette Week, September 2000 'Michell's songs are deceptively intricate and driven by her frenzied strum as she sings in lovely, mysterious mood spirals of rapture, accusation and introspection. A quiet storm of sneaky splendors.' -- The Rocket, August 1998.

New Zealand take chances in field to set up merited victory

TRUE to form, the NatWest Series finished in depressing fashion — a one-sided game watched in the gloom by resilient people wearing heavy coats and woolly hats. Fittingly, too, it produced the rightful winners. New Zealand were the best team throughout. They will fancy themselves to win the ICC Champions Trophy in September if they can beat Australia in the first round.

WASHINGTON — A senior Pentagon official told a Senate committee Thursday that the U.S. would be at war with Al Qaeda for 15 to 20 more years and said the military could target terrorists anywhere under a law passed after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
Michael Sheehan, assistant secretary of Defense in charge of special operations, said America's battle with terrorist groups spanned the globe "from Boston to the FATA," meaning Pakistan's tribal areas.
He did not explain why he believes the effort could last another generation. During his State of the Union address in February, President Obama called Al Qaeda "a shadow of its former self."
Sheehan and the Pentagon's top lawyers told the Senate Armed Services Committee that the military was authorized to target Al Qaeda operatives in countries where drone strikes don't now occur, including Mali, Syria and anywhere a host government is "unwilling or unable" to prevent Al Qaeda-linked terrorists from operating on its territory.

Add-on - Schmazey Photoshop Action 17894 by Actions Schmactions @ CreativeMarket
File Size: 13.16 KB; DPI: 72 DPI.
This is an action for Adobe Photoshop.
The Schmazey action is the most used of all of my actions. It's basically the best of both worlds. It creates beautiful contrast on your images while simultaneously fading out some of the color to give you a look that is simultaneously new and vintage. In addition to that, you get a nice blur effect and some grain to top it all off and bring it together. It looks great on both indoor and outdoor images as well as studio photos. Although, I've found that it looks best with photos with a shallow depth of field. Schmazey is a few dollars cheaper than our other actions because it isn't a set - it's just a single action, but that said, it's the single action that we're probably the most proud of and will definitely be widely used for you, too.
Keywords: photoshop, adobe, actions, presets, cs5, cs6, cc, editing, edit, retouching, retouch, portraiture, photography, lightroom, digital.

FORMER Wallabies defensive guru Phil Blake and two recent NRL coaches have emerged as possible candidates for the role of assistant to Geoff Toovey at the Sea Eagles.
The Manly Daily understands Blake, Tony Iro and Brad Arthur have been raised in discussions.
Michael Potter is another high profile identity believed to be in the mix.
The club is looking for a new assistant coach following the departure of Matt Parish, who has accepted a job with Ricky Stuart at Parramatta.
He remains favourite to take over from Tim Sheens at the Wests Tigers.
Former Sea Eagles tryscoring whiz Blake has established himself in recent years as a rugby coach on the international stage.
After a successful period with the Marlins, he earned a good reputation as Wallabies' defensive coach before losing his job in controversial circumstances after the World Cup.
This year he was with the Western Force Super Rugby team and could be in the running to be Waratahs assistant coach in 2013.
Ex-Manly player Iro took charge of the Warriors at the end of this season when Brian McClennan left suddenly.
Similarly, Arthur became Eels' caretaker coach late this year following the departure of Stephen Kearney.
Potter, a star fullback with the Bulldogs and Dragons, has coached Catalans Dragons, St Helens and Bradford in the English Super League.

Good taste
I enjoyed these cashews. They contain just the right amount of salt.
Make for a great mid-morning snack!
The package was convenient to take to work. I will purchase it again.
Planters cashews have a delicious taste, with just the right amount of salt. I personally like the whole and pieces better over the whole cashews. Great product to eat if you want more fiber or iron in your diet!
I love these and I buy them often for a snack. I sometimes add them to a few baked goods for something different.I also have some in ice cream and it tastes so good that way.I like the sweet and salty taste when I have the ice cream.
Planters uses too much salt and a very nasty ingredient - SOY :(
I wish they would just roast the nuts and not add these nasty ingredients like salt & soy.
I really like Planters cashews, they have the perfect flavour from the salt and they are always fresh when you open the can. Perfect for snacking on and taking on hikes!
Planters Cashews;
Healthy snack
great tasting
all purpose
snack, in between meals, kids and adults a like will enjoy!
LOVE these nuts, great taste and not expensive like some nuts
Love these ! No salty , great taste !I just find them a little expensive

Diego Costa is stuck in the worst goal drought of his Chelsea career amid fears his head has been turned by a fresh £650,000-a-week offer from China.
Costa knows there is a new deal on the table from the Chinese Super League worth £34million a year AFTER tax – which would make him the highest paid player in the world.
And there are growing fears that is proving a huge distraction – and the real reason behind Costa's worrying lack of form as Chelsea's season enters its most crucial phase.

The West Liberty Public Library was packed full of kids Wednesday morning, June 28, as it kicked off the first day of the 2017 Summer Reading Program.
To start the first day of the four week event, kids got to look at and pet some exotic wild animals.
The animals were just the first of a few different upcoming events revolving around the theme for this year's program, which is "Build a Better World".
"We're going to branch out in a couple different ways," said Deb Lowman, Library Director. "One week we'll look at construction. Another week we'll look at how to take care of our environment."
"Another week we're going into the vein of our community to look at all the different ways that we as children and adults can build a better world around us," she added.
The library welcomed animal caregiver Lacey Claborn to the library for opening day as she brought multiple creatures.
"So usually about once a year we reach out to a program and go at it from an educational point," Lowman said. "It's also nice to bring out an animal program for families and children, where you feature exotic pets because often times they're desirable pets, but they're not always the best pets."
This year it was the Wild Times Exotics Zoo's turn, coming three and a half hours away from Springfield, Illinois.
This wasn't any ordinary zoo. Even though the zoo is located in one place, the animals come to you. The zoo traveles to any state surrounding Illinois.
"Our zoo is not open to the public. We only bring the zoo to you. We do birthdays, daycares, libraries, schools and any public or private event that would be appropriate for our animals to be at," Claborn said.
The West Liberty Public Library isn't the only library building "A Better World." Other libraries in the state and nation are doing the same theme.
That's because most of the state of Iowa, and many other states, participated in the Collaborative Summer Reading Program, which was a national non-profit.
The organization sets the theme, and they also help give ideas and materials for programming posters.
That's not to say the Summer Reading Program in West Liberty is a carbon copy of every body else. No way, West Liberty's reading program has always been unique.
"Ultimately, our goal for the summer is to keep the kids' reading," Lowman said. "All of the research shows that you have to continue to read over summer or you get summer loss. Kids can actually step backwards in their reading ability."
Accordingly the library keeps the fun events going during the summer while encouraging everyone to keep on reading.
WLPL divides all their summer readers into different age groups, including young children, middle school and then teen and adults.
However, the library doesn't only want to focus on reading, it also wants members to focus on writing once they turn from a 'family reader' to an 'independent reader.'
When they're done with a book, readers can fill out a book review. It doesn't have to be about the book exactly, but something to encourage the next reader.
Readers can then trade their review sheet for a slip that they put in the drawing for weekly prizes.
They'll accumulate the weekly drawings and give away some larger prizes at the end of summer.
If you're interested, the Summer Reading Program has begun now and will only continue until the end of July.
For kids, the program will include an 'Almost Summer Campout' on July 14, and a Deep Lake Adventure in Muscatine on July 28.
Next week they have a water science lab with Iowa State planned. The week after, the West Liberty Police Department will teach bike safety.
The West Liberty Public Library also wants to remind adults that the summer reading program isn't just for kids, but them as well. Learn more at WLPL.org.

It sounds as though the bleeding may be from your neupogen.
However, vaginal bleeding is not a reported side-effect.
You should talk to your doctor about this.

Apricot Sherbet
Posted on August 25, 2016 by Anna
Taken from Samarkand by Caroline Eden and Eleanor Ford. Picture by Laura Edwards.
Buy from Amazon
Makes 4 cups
2½ cups unsulphured dried apricots, chopped
½ cup superfine sugar
The word sherbet derives from the Arab sharab, a sweetened fruit drink that has barely changed in nature for over five centuries; Persian kings were said to drink theirs cooled with snow. Using dried apricots to make this simple Uzbek sherbet gives it a beautiful color and wonderful honeyed taste.
Put the apricots and sugar in a pan with 4 cups of water. Cover with a lid and simmer for 1 hour to infuse the flavors into the liquid. Let cool and sit for a few hours, then strain the liquid into a jug. Keep the poached apricots to eat with yogurt or in a pie.
Chill the sherbet well before serving over crushed ice.

X Marks the Spot
- (Duplicated CD)
- Artist: Bernadett Belinda York
- Format: CD
- Release Date: 3/17/2009
|your cart is empty
Shortly after writing/recording 'X Marks The Spot', an original tribute song to the hit TV series 'The X-Files', Bernadett received an invitation from IBG, Inc. (a charity organization inspired by international actress Gillian Anderson) to use the song to help raise money and awareness for Neurofibromatosis at an event in Beverly Hills, California. Humbled and honored at the opportunity to do some good, the song (along with items donated by Gillian, 20th Century Fox, Frank Spotnitz, Jimmy Kimmel, and George Clooney) managed to raise a significant amount of money for the genetic disorder. All copies of 'X Marks The Spot' will continue to help raise money and awareness for Gillian Anderson's selected charities which include: Neurofibromatosis, Inc, Off The Street Kids, Buskaid, The Trevor Project, Fezeka, The Feminist Majority Foundation, Artists For A New South Africa, Action For South Africa, and Amnesty International. If you decide to purchase 'X Marks The Spot' from CDBABY, $1.00 of every copy will be donated directly to one of the charities listed above. 9% is taken by the distributer (CDBABY), and the rest of your money will go to the artist. Just make sure to write here the artist after your purchase to tell us which organization you would like to donate to. Thank You for your kindness. Bernadett Belinda York.

Checkout lane: Discount grocer Aldi plans an Oct. 24 opening of its Kemah store, 222 FM 518. To celebrate the opening, Aldi plans an 8:45 a.m. ribbon-cutting Oct. 22.
The ribbon-cutting is open to the public, of which members can sample exclusive Aldi brands and tour the new store.
No-frills Aldi sells only about 1,400 of the fastest-moving products, mostly under its private label and for prices 50 percent less than traditional supermarkets. Aldi credits efficiency for low pricing.
The grocer eliminates overhead cost by such practices as a cart rental system through which shoppers insert a quarter to release a cart and receive the quarter back upon the cart's return.
Other cost-saving practices include a smaller store footprint, open carton displays and encouraging customers to bring their own bags.
Aldi also lowers costs by keeping stores open during prime shopping times. The Kemah store will be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Altogether, Germany-based Aldi plans to open 30 Houston-area stores in the next three years The chain operates 1,200 U.S. stores.
Chew on this: Two popular food concepts are biting into the bay area. First, fast-casual restaurant chain Zoës Kitchen is planning an eatery in the Baybrook Village shopping center, 1507 W. Bay Area Blvd.
The Birmingham, Ala.-based chain serves up Mediterranean-inspired comfort foods using fresh ingredients and made-from-scratch recipes.
The concept offers fresh, gourmet sandwiches, salads, pitas, hot entrees and chicken or steak roll-ups. The Zoës Kitchen chain has grown to more than 70 restaurants in 12 states with plans for more expansion. No word on an opening date.
Seeing Red: Meanwhile, frozen yogurt and smoothie purveyor Red Mango also is planning to move into the Baybrook Village shopping center. Along with all-natural frozen yogurt and fruit smoothies, Dallas-based Red Mango is known for yogurt parfaits and probiotic iced teas.
Red Mango has more than 200 shops in North America. Opening date information wasn't immediately available.
Center of attention: The 240,000-square-foot Baybrook Village shopping center, with a tenant roster that include Ross Dress For Less, PetSmart, Sports Authority and Jo-Ann Fabrics, has been generating quite the food buzz lately. In August, Greensboro, N.C.-based The Fresh Market said it had signed a lease at the shopping center.
The Fresh Market, which bills itself as a specialty grocery retailer, has 137 stores in 26 states
It's known for bountiful produce, a full-service meat counter, gourmet and prepared foods and an in-store bakery.
The grocer is aiming for shoppers in Webster, Friendswood and League City, officials said.
This will mark The Fresh Market's fifth Houston-area store. Houston specialty grocer Rice Epicurean in November announced it had entered into agreements to lease four of its Houston stores to The Fresh Market. Look for The Fresh Market to open its Webster store sometime next year.
Taco tattle: Rumor has it that popular chain Fuzzy's Taco Shop is scouting for an island site. Officials with the Fort Worth chain, however, say there's "no paperwork" on an island eatery and declined to confirm the spicy speculation.
Fuzzy's started on Berry Street in Fort Worth before father and son restaurateurs Alan and Chuck Bush bought it in 2003. After revamping the original store, they commenced expanding.
Fuzzy's tacos are laced with feta and a signature sauce. The Baja-style tacos have a cultlike following. The chain has since spread to 11 states with 60 stores. Stay tuned.
Original idea: For sandwich seller Schlotzsky's, it all began 42 years ago with one menu item — The Original, an 8-inch freshly-baked sourdough bun stuffed with three meats, cheeses, lettuces, tomatoes, olives and dressing.
Schlotzsky's, which launched in 1971 in a small shop on South Congress Avenue in Austin, is marking its 42nd year in business today by offering The Original for $1.99 — no coupon necessary. The offer, good for today, is available at all area Schlotzsky's shops.
Just to be clear: An Oct. 1 Biz Buzz should have said that brewery complex at 33rd and Church streets was originally one of Adolphus Busch's regional projects. Busch was never affiliated with The Falstaff Brewery, which later operated in the building. The former complex was built in 1895 at the intersections of 33rd and Church Streets for Galveston Brewing Co.
According to The Western Brewer, published May 15, 1897, Busch and William J. Lemp of St. Louis were major stockholders of the corporation that raised $400,000 to start the Galveston Brewing Co.
Although it changed hands several times, the brewery operated for more than 80 years, including as The Falstaff Brewery, according to the Galveston Historical Foundation.

Reno, Nevada (PRWEB) June 18, 2015
Toll Brothers, the nation's leading builder of luxury homes, announces the June 20th grand opening of its first-ever active adult community west of Colorado. Regency at Damonte Ranch in Reno, Nevada will deliver the resort-style amenities and sought-after lifestyle for which Toll Brothers is recognized. Exceeding expectations since its April 2015 soft opening, the staff-gated community offers three collections, including nine professionally decorated model homes. Once completed, the community will consist of 505 low-maintenance homes which include front yard landscaping, most with mountain views. Luxury homes designed for those age 55 and better are priced from the mid-$300,000s.
Recognized on three separate occasions as Builder of the Year, Toll Brothers is successfully introducing three single-story home collections ranging from 1,668 sq. ft. to 2,398 sq. ft. The future community clubhouse at Regency at Damonte Ranch, with over 18,000 sq. ft. of indoor recreation, will also include an indoor pool, spa, billiards/game room, weight and cardio room, aerobics and fitness center, formal lounge, and more. Pickleball and bocce courts, a tennis court, and easy access to surrounding bike and walking paths are also offered.
Residency at Regency includes an on-site lifestyle director who plans and coordinates year-round social activities. Such events will range from Friday night cocktail parties, card tournaments and golf outings to dinner clubs, daytrip excursions, continuous learning, and philanthropic pursuits.
Explains Toll Brothers' Group President Gary Mayo, "As we look to expand the Toll Brothers Active Living brand in the western United States, our primary goal is to provide a home buying experience unlike any other active-adult community. Our buyers will have the benefit of not having to sacrifice quality of life, location, or the amenities they desire as they transition to the lifestyle they want."
Mayo adds, "Toll Brothers' acclaimed architecture remains a focus and makes possible sought-after indoor/outdoor living advantages. While our Active Adult communities deliver a vast array of amenities and activities, our residents' personal living environments remain central to our efforts."
According to the 2015 Northern Nevada Housing Outlook, Nevada's improving economy and position as the sixth fastest growing population in 2014 have bolstered Toll Brothers' introduction of Regency at Damonte Ranch, simultaneously addressing the ever-increasing demands among the most powerful consumers in the marketplace. As the last of the baby boomers turned 50 in 2014, over 100 million adults now influence the size, wealth and spending in the United States. Whereas, Nevada's 65 and over population experienced the second largest increase of 47.9% between 1999-2009, and is projected to increase an additional 18.6% in 2030. **
Beyond the range of amenities at Regency at Damonte Ranch is its proximity to downtown Reno with its fine dining, world-class entertainment, and gaming. Hiking or skiing at nearby Mount Rose, fishing, sailing, and boating at Pyramid Lake and Lake Tahoe are within a 30-minute drive. Regency at Damonte Ranch is convenient to Interstate 580, and is less than 15 minutes from Interstate 80, the Amtrak station, and the Reno International Airport.
This first-of-its-kind Active Living community in the Western U.S. is one of more than 40 Toll Brothers Active Living communities in prime locations throughout the United States. Regency at Damonte Ranch is distinct among four additional Toll Brothers communities in Reno. Further south in Nevada will be the exciting development of Regency at Summerlin®, Las Vegas scheduled to debut in early 2016. The Active Living brand represents Toll Brothers' offering of a breadth of lifestyle options in a place that captures the essence of its 55+ residents, including: resort-style clubhouses, social activities and clubs, fitness centers, indoor and outdoor pools, professional-caliber golf courses, and walking and biking trails.

The short space of time before we fall asleep is a strange one; it's the time when we're not quite in the world of the waking and not quite in the world of slumber…it's the twilight zone if you like…that short window when nothing is quite concrete. Technically, this period of time is called "the hypnagogic state" and for those of us who experience the strange and confusing state, it can be extremely unsettling.
Some people report seeing realistic visions of people, disembodied faces, strange lights and geometric forms as well as hearing voices, music or even technological sounding "beeps" and tones. Others might seem to experience strange insights or upsetting emotions as well as feeling as though they are being hunted or pursued.
For those people who do suffer from this uncommon condition, it can be very distressing and some people dread falling asleep because their visions are so startling. While research into Hypnagogia is ongoing, scientists believe that experiencing it is just the mind's way of getting rid of the day's thoughts and feelings and that some patterns of behaviours can exacerbate it.
Drinking alcohol or taking drugs can make the condition much worse as can lack of sleep or general stress. Some sufferers report a lessening of symptoms once they learn what the condition is called and discover that far from being a paranormal event, it's simply a neurological reaction to a variety of stimuli.
If you have ever woken up in a confused and frightened state due to thinking you can see, hear, sense or feel things which patently cannot be there, it is worth looking at Hypnagogia as the cause. Suffering from Hypnagogia interrupts sleep patterns and can result in extreme exhaustion as people try to avoid sleep or to help themselves sleep through alcohol and other means which ultimately worsen the condition.
Ways to lessen the symptoms of Hypnagogia
Firstly, stop drinking alcohol because drink can make the symptoms much worse as well as bring them on in the first place! Secondly, try to get a good sleep routine which does not vary from day to day. Choose a suitable time to go to bed and do not deviate from it. If you are suffering from stress in your day to day life, don't underestimate how much this can worsen the symptoms of Hypnagogia and think about taking some regular exercise which is a proven way to help yourself de-stress and learn to relax.
Finally, keep your bedroom tidy and clutter free; avoid the mess and confusion which can add to the issues of seeing things which aren't really there! A tidy room which is well organised is a good environment for sleeping in…a cluttered and untidy one is not!
If your symptoms do not ease with the above actions, see your doctor. It may be that you would be best advised to visit a sleep clinic where you can be observed sleeping and specialists can then advise you on the best course of action.
