About West Vail
Occupying a wider swath of the Valley than the Villages and East Vail, West Vail offers distinctly different environments on its northern and southern hillsides. The south side features lush wooded alpine terrain interspersed with meadows while the more exposed north side offers dramatic views and an abundance of sunshine year round. Divided into several neighborhoods, the area has a commercial center with groceries, shops, and restaurants and a close knit mix of locals and second home owners. Properties in West Vail range from simple condominiums to elegant single-family homes, all of which are a quick 5-10 minute Town shuttle away from the heart of the Village.

Dress to Impress
You may have only a small budget, but it doesn't have to look that way.
By Nichole l. Torres
You will most likely have to spend money to make money, but if you are in startup mode, you probably don't have a ton of cash lying around. So how can you give the impression that your company is doing well? "First impressions can be extremely helpful or detrimental to your success as an entrepreneur," says Far-noosh Torabi, Entrepreneur's "TheStreet.com" columnist and author of You're So Money: Live Rich Even When You're Not. "You're trying to build relationships. [And you're] trying to get people to believe not only in your idea, but also in you as someone who will achieve everything that you're promising."
Projecting an image of financial success, even when you're still eating ramen noodles on a daily basis, can help you reach your business goals that much faster. "Success breeds success," says John-Paul Lee, 29, founder and CEO of Tavalon Tea, a high-end tea bar in New York City. "It's about projecting an image that you're already successful, that you can really match wits with people who've been in the industry for a while." Part of Lee's strategic branding involved partnering with strong existing brands, which meant meeting with high-level businesspeople. The good suits he already had from his previous gig as a management consultant were vital, but he also added extra touches, such as cuff links, to really send out a successful vibe.
Even if you have a small budget, try to splurge where it counts. A stylish laptop bag says professional and successful, Torabi points out. Clothing that is tailored to fit well also gives the right impression. A versatile blazer, stylish yet comfortable shoes and a nice watch are all good investments that can be found at midrange prices.
Entertaining clients on a budget can be a challenge, but Torabi suggests talking with restaurant and bar owners (preferably at a place you frequent) before taking clients there and negotiating a group rate or a prix fixe menu for your gathering. Says Torabi, "Explain that you love the restaurant, you're a regular patron and you'd like to introduce your clients to the restaurant."
Even with a professional look and strategic entertaining, the package isn't complete--you also need to walk and talk with an air of self-assurance. "When you present yourself with confidence, it [resonates] with other people," says Lee, who pro-jects sales of $5.2 million this year. "It's an effective tool to convey success."
To Market, To Market
Get your idea out there with help from a product development company.
By Nichole L. Torres
Bringing a product to market is challenging for everyone. You have to think about engineering, production, marketing and many other factors. Whether you have a simple product or a complicated medical or tech product, there are companies that can help you get the ball rolling.
First, do some research to see if your idea already exists, says Sam Zaidspiner, co-founder of Slingshot Production Development Group Inc. Zaidspiner, who specializes in helping businesses launch products, says you should look for a product development company that will be your partner through the entire process. "[As] a startup, you need a partner who will grow with you and help you launch your product from beginning to end," he explains. It's also vital that your development partner is honest with you about the profit potential of your idea. You don't want someone to just tell you the idea is great without critically examining it. And look for a company that provides a one-stop shop of services, from early design to end-time marketing help, says Zaidspiner.
Finally, a good team will help determine if your product is feasible from engineering and market perspectives. "You want someone with enthusiasm for your concept," adds Slingshot co-founder Noah McNeely. "And it should be someone you enjoy working with. You'll be working [together] awhile."
Lean On Me
This women's networking group can help keep your startup from going belly up.
By Nichole L. Torres
With women starting businesses at twice the rate of men, the need for organizations like Ladies Who Launch is growing. Started as a weekly e-mail newsletter featuring a woman entrepreneur, Ladies Who Launch is now a full-fledged media company focused on helping women succeed. Co-founded by Victoria Colligan, 39, and Beth Schoenfeldt, 40, the company hosts Ladies Who Launch Live events and has 50 incubators throughout the U.S. and Canada. "Community is an important component for women launching [businesses]," says Colligan. "Women use connecting as an integral tool in moving their businesses forward. The more connected [they are], the more likely they are to be successful."
Connecting is exactly what Tisha DeShields did when she went to her first Ladies Who Launch Live event in 2006. She attended the conference with the idea to start Original Belly Works, a College Park, Georgia, company that sells a plaster kit for casting a pregnant woman's belly. "It's a great network of women," says DeShields, 37. "Whenever I need some direction, I can reach someone. They taught me how to step out there." She credits that outside perspective with helping expand her vision. Today, DeShields projects 2008 sales of about $100,000 and hopes to develop regional and national markets soon.
The Ladies Who Launch e-mail news-letter is free, the online membership is $240 a year, and the full incubator membership starts at $700 a year. For more information, check out ladieswholaunch.com.
Money Matters
Rest Assured
If you've got a computer, you don't even have to get out of bed to secure a loan for your startup.
By Rosalind Resnick
Question: I've shopped my loan application all over town, but I seem to be getting nowhere. Is there anyplace else I can go?
Answer: Yes, there is, and it's as convenient as your own computer. Similar to websites that let you apply online for mortgages and credit cards, plenty of sites let you apply for small-business loans and lines of credit--no calls, waiting in line or paperwork required. iBank.com, for example, provides access to a network of 325 lenders offering business loans, credit lines, equipment leasing and commercial mortgages from $5,000 to $50 million.
Tom Markel, president and CEO of Virtual Capital Corp., the company that supports iBank.com, says loans made to small businesses through the site topped $81 billion last year. Thanks to iBank's Finance$uite software platform, you can store and organize your business data in a secure, electronic "vault" that you can access any time from anywhere in the world where there's an internet connection. Whenever you need cash, you simply select the type of loan you require, and the information stored in the vault is automatically entered into your application form.
The bottom line: Borrowing costs through iBank are 30 percent lower than applying for loans the conventional way, and funding time is less, with many loans approved on the spot. Says Markel, who likens his site to a matchmaker for banks and borrowers, "You can't get matched up unless you submit the right data the right way." iBank charges $49.95 to $300 (depending on the loan size) to prepare a professional loan application from your online vault.

Posts Tagged 'Scott Rolen'
As the deadline passes, many players are finding new homes
Red Sox first basemen Adam LaRoche to the Braves for first basemen Casey Kotchman: This move was strictly made to free up some money for the Red Sox, and to acquire great defense off their bench in Kotchman. Adam LaRoche now returns to Atlanta, and provides a better offense at first.
Grade : C for Red Sox, C for Braves
Indians' catcher Victor Martinez to the Red Sox for P Justin Masterson, P Nick Hagadone, and P Bryan Price: The Red Soxobviously needed another bat to make a legitimate run at the World Series. They got it in catcher/first basemen Victor Martinez. This trade also gives the Sox some versatility. Martinez can catch and spell Jason Varitek every now and then. Victor can also play first, which would slide Kevin Youkilis across the diamond if Mike Lowell continues to hurt. Martinez also provides a switch hitter with power in the middle of the lineup that balances Boston's order. The Indians received three top prospects in starters Justin Masterson and Nick Hagadone, and a closer in Bryan Price.
Grade: A – for Red Sox, B for Indians
Padres' pitcher Jake Peavy to the White Sox for P Clayton Richard, P Aaron Poreda, P Dexter Carter, P Adam Russell: In a surprise move, the Padres finally got the injured Peavy to waive his no trade clause, and accepted the White Sox trade. If Peavy comes back this year, this gives the White Sox a great one-two punch in Mark Buehrle and Peavy, and closes the gap between them and the Tigers. The Padres, on the other hand, dumped Peavy's salary like they had desperately attempted to earlier. They also acquired three top prospects in Richard, who has started 26 games in the Majors this year, Poreda, a 2007 first round pick, and Carter, a thirteenth round pick in 2007. Adam Russell also has some relieving experience in the Majors. These players just add more pieces to the puzzle for San Diego, as they rebuild their team.
Grade : B+ for White Sox, B- for Padres
A's shortstop Orlando Cabrera to the Twins for SS Tyler Ladendorf: A move that was considered a lock, occurred Friday, as the Twins finally sured up the middle of their infield. The Twins, as many teams have, had a void in their middle infield and filled it with Cabrera. Orlando provides solid defense as well as a bat that can be placed almost anywhere in the lineup. The A's got prospect Tyler Ladendorf, who was a second round pick in 2008, and who is currently at Single A.
Grade : B for Twins, C for A's
Mariners' pitcher Jarrod Washburn to the Tigers for P Luke French and P Mauricio Robles: The Mariners decided they were not in contention this year, and traded away Washburn, in the middle of a career year. This gives the Tigers a great rotation, especially a top three of Justin Verlander, Edwin Jackson, and Washburn. The interesting part of this trade is that the Mariners very well could resign Jarrod Washburn after the season. Washburn has stated that he loves Seattle, and would fit in their picture for next season. As for the players they acquired, French is a rookie this season but has been serviceable thus far. Robles is a top prospect that could be in the Majors in as soon as two seasons.
Grade: B+ for Tigers, B- for Mariners
Orioles' pitcher George Sherrill to the Dodgers for 3B Josh Bell and P Steve Johnson: The Orioles coveted reliever was sent on his way for a top prospect in third basemen, Josh Bell. Baltimore figured that it will not be a contender for at least another year or two, so they got the best value they could for their closer, which would be the heir apparent to 3B Melvin Mora.
Grade: B for Dodgers, C+ for Orioles
Blue Jays' third basemen Scott Rolen to the Reds for 3B Edwin Encarnacion, P Josh Roenicke, and P Zach Stewart: Reds GM Walt Jocketty had previously traded for Rolen, and now has done it again. The Reds traded young third basemen Edwin Encarnacion, along with two pitching prospects for Rolen, who is in the midst of his best season since his shoulder injury three seasons ago.
Grade: C+ for Reds, C+ for Blue Jays
Pirates' pitcher Tom Gorzelanny and P John Grabow to the Cubs for P Kevin Hart and P Jose Ascaino: After getting a Cubs win yesterday, pitcher Kevin Hart received the news that he was traded to the Pirates. Hart and pitcher Jose Ascaino, give the Bucs some more arms to rummage through as they continue to build their team from the bottom up. The Cubs got once fourteen game winner, Tom Gorzelanny, who they believe to be on track again after struggling earlier this season. Chicago also acquired lefty reliever John Grabow, who they will pair with lefty Sean Marshall, for the stretch run.
Grade: B for Cubs, B- for Pirates
Nationals' first basemen Nick Johnson to the Marlins for P Aaron Thompson: The Nationals dumped salary and injuries to the Florida Marlins today. Johnson, having his seemingly most healthy year, was traded to Florida for a former first round pick in pitcher Aaron Thompson. This move gives the Nats another arm on which to build their franchise. Johnson will give the Marlins a better all around player at first, as well as the versatility to play many different lineups based on match ups.
The Moves Not Made
Halladay: As I said yesterday, Toronto GM over played his hand based on the market, and ended up keeping Roy Halladay. Now he will attempt to deal him in the offseason, at much lesser value. This scenario reminds me very much of what went on with P Johan Santana, almost two years ago.
Gonzalez: In my opinion, the Padres were never going to trade first basemen Adrian Gonzalez. He is relatively young, cheap based on his talents, and someone they can rebuild their team around.
Trade Deadline Winners
Giants: The Giants needed offense to even make it a race against the Dodgers, who have the Majors best record. They added two bats, Freddy Sanchez and Ryan Garko. Sanchez is a former batting champion, and Garko had hit 35 home runs the past two seasons. With their already strong pitching, considerably stronger than the Dodgers, the Giants look primed to now challenge Los Angeles for the NL West crown.
Red Sox: Theo Epstein works in curious ways. When all is said and done, the Red Sox walk away from the deadline with Victor Martinez as an insurance policy for Mike Lowell, and a bat in the middle of the lineup. The Sox also gave up relatively little for Martinez, who they will also have for 2010.
Cardinals: The Cardinals got a bat to protect Albert Pujols, and set themselves up for the stretch run with the acquisition of outfielder Matt Holliday. Besides giving up top prospect, Brett Wallace, who had questions surrounding him anyways, the Cards got Holliday for barely anything. Not to mention they acquired red hot Julio Lugo, and versatile Mark DeRosa.
Phillies: Thought to be front runners for Roy Halladay, the Phillies went in and swooped up Cliff Lee for a much lesser price than what Toronto GM J.P. Riccardi was asking for. Lee gives the Phillies one of the best rotations in the NL, and cements them as serious threats to repeat.
Trade Deadline Losers
Athletics: The A's traded away Matt Holliday and Orlando Cabrera this deadline. The boatload of prospects Oakland walked away with shows that they won't be players anytime soon.
Indians: Although I liked the prospects the Indians acquired in both the Cliff Lee and Victor Martinez deals, you can't trade last year's Cy Young Award winner and the best catcher in baseball, and be considered a better team.
Blue Jays: Now that they haven't traded Halladay, his value will go way down. One GM has even been quoted as saying that his value would drop 30-40%. Good luck getting what you ask for now J.P.

Fiscal Cliff
Fiscal Cliff
I hope not! It is one of the few good things the federal government has done in recent years!
What is the opposite of progress? : Congress!
They could reduce the cost of the programme by aiming it at cars made in the US - at a minimum to qualify for the rebate the car should be assembled in the USA and be made from at least 50% US sourced components. Tesla and Chevy Volts will still qualify, if Nissan, Toyota or Fiskar wants to do the right thing and move their operations to the US then they can have the subsidy too. Otherwise we do not need to support Finnish or Japanese autoworkers, the good workers here need it more!
This has been discussed thoroughly. Basically, probably not
Nissan LEAFs and their batteries will be made in Tennessee starting in 2013
Never been against foreign car makers, I drive a Mercedes now and even tried two Nissan (240SX and 300ZX) years ago because for a while, their styling got very good but found the durability to be very poor - specifically the ICE. If the Leaf is made here in the US have no problems encouraging it, but to my eyes it is an ugly duckling and I would never choose to even rent one. The doors are so thin I do not feel safe even riding in it. The Plug in Prius is slightly safer but looks like a obese guppy rather than a car and they do not even assemble it in the US! They sell enough of them here to make it cost effective to build here but assemble them in Japan, Thailand, and communist China instead! No need to be subsidising that!
The Chevy Volt is a basically good car, feels safe to drive and shows the one of the big three is starting to 'get it' with out losing their soul, it is still a Chevy, but missing that wow factor. I have not driven a C-max but the styling leaves a lot to be desired... Make an electric Camaro or Mustang already!
Fiskar looks cool but reliablity and value for the money is an issue.
Well basically Tesla wins hands down, they just have to get them out there.
Generally I am against big government and subsidies, but there is a clear and present danger to the US, UK and the western world by dependence on imported oil and I can see a rational in helping companies to build cars like Model S and the Volt here in the US. But honestly find it outrageous that the US government is aiding companies that intentionally do not hire US workers. If you are going to use a subsidy, aim it carefully to do the most good.
Worry not about imported oil. Google 'tight oil frac' and read all about it. It's light sweet oil (low sulfur) and the new US reserves equal the Rest Of The World combined. The US is doomed to be an Oil Empire for centuries.
Domestic oil already exceeds imported, and is rising fast. BTW, the main 'import' source is Canada. The Middle East counts for about 10-15%, and falling.
No doubt oil is NOT going away... We need it for plastics, lubricants and road building. But makes sense to gradually reduce the amount burnt for electricity and transport - Tesla, Solar City and increased utilisation of wind power is part of that solution. Agreed with Pickens and even Obama on this one... Clean domestic energy made ever more economical through economy of scale thus creating more quality american jobs. If Republicans were smart and ever want to come to power again they would pick up this idea and restore america to a great power again. The success of Tesla, Solar City, GE Wind and others exporting to the world could be the key to balancing the trade deficit in a way that is eco-friendly yet non destructive to the economy like cap and trade and other mandates.

Hollywood Poised to Reinforce False Homeschool Stereotypes
- 2003 23 Apr
Homeschoolers face inaccurate stereotypes everyday. Many family members, friends, and other educators hear the word "homeschool" and automatically jump to negative conclusions. Even after two decades of homeschool success stories, the media still brings up "concerns" about socialization. The Home School Legal Defense Association exists primarily to defend the right of families to homeschool, but HSLDA's lawyers also fight a public relations campaign in the media and with school officials in order to improve the public perception of homeschooling. Now more negative stereotypes are scheduled to hit mainstream entertainment television this summer in the form of a midseason replacement comedy called The O'Keefes.
The O'Keefes is described as "whimsical, family-oriented comedy" about a homeschool family whose parents shelter the intelligent but socially inept children from the dangers of the outside world. One TV review site says of the sitcom: "Harry (Judge Reinhold) and Ellie O'Keefe (Kirsten Nelson) are loving but eccentric parents who've home schooled their three children to protect them from the loud and libidinal world.
"Despite a ban on all things pop culture, teenagers Danny (Joseph Cross) and Lauren (Tania Raymonde) and younger brother Mark (Matt Weinberg) are growing increasingly curious about what lies beyond the walls of their school/dining room. They can speak six languages, but are unable to converse with kids their own age. The answer lies in their father's worst nightmare - public school."
(Source: http://www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet/ShowMainServlet/showid-10127)
HSLDA president J. Michael Smith wrote to Warner Bros. CEO Barry Meyers in March and objected to the show's depiction of homeschoolers. Noting that the sitcom reinforces inaccurate opinions about homeschooling, Mr. Smith requested that homeschoolers be consulted about the show's content.
In his letter, Smith noted that homeschoolers tend to score above average on standardized achievement tests in the elementary and secondary grades and on college entrance exams. Smith also cited studies that indicate homeschool students are well socialized and have higher self-esteem than traditionally schooled students of the same age.
Warner Bros. contacted HSLDA and confirmed that "The O'Keefes" is scheduled as a midseason replacement show with four episodes already filmed. At this time, Warner Bros. has no plans to withdraw or revise the show in spite of the concerns addressed. However, Warner Bros. agreed to send HSLDA the pilot episode of "The O'Keefes" for review.
HSLDA will review the pilot of "The O'Keefes" and will report on the sitcom's portrayal of homeschoolers.

Dragon Quest X is an online role-playing game. Know what online role-playing games have? Subscription fees, and DQX appears to be no different.
On the game's official site, it lists standard info like platform, release date, and price. Here's a look:
Platform: Wii/Wii U
Release Date: (Wii) Planned for 2012/(Wii U) TBA
MSRP・User Fee: (Wii/Wii U) TBA
The fact that there is a "user fee" next to the MSRP indicates that players will pay to play DQX. In that regards, expect DQX to be an online game in the truest sense.
More disconcerting, however, is that the Wii version is slated for 2012, while the Wii U version is TBA. Certainly, Square Enix could release them both in 2012, but with the company's track record of getting games out quick, we could be looking at a 2013 or beyond release for the Wii U version of DQX.

Dózsa György
Exactly 500 years ago in Buda, György Dózsa, under whose leadership a peasant revolt would soon break out across Hungary, was elevated to the nobility. The legend surrounding the commander of the uprising would later inspire Ferenc Erkel, the Opera's first principal music director, to compose an opera on the subject. Our intention is to pay homage to both these legends with a concert-format performance of the work, with an audio recording of the evening to be released on CD.
Erkel composed Dózsa György for the old National Theatre, and the composer himself conducted the opera's world premiere on 6 April 1867. The work, however, was not successful: it was removed from the programme relatively quickly, after only six performances, despite Erkel and his two sons making a number of changes to the piece. In the year that also marked the compromise with Austria, the political rapprochement following the revolution of 1848-49, the captain of a peasant insurrection against the state was not considered topical thematic material. The opera languished for many years, until the 1950s, when proposals were made to return it to the programme, but both dramaturgical and ideological concerns made this era another unfortunate one for a story of the leader of insurgent peasants, and the plans were finally abandoned. Finally, later in the same decade, Hungarian Radio recorded several excerpts from the original score. It also made another recording in 1991, for which Amadé Németh and Sándor Ruitner extensively reworked the opera. Aside from these two recordings, however, no other audio material exists of the work. For this reason, the Hungarian State Opera considered it a matter of importance to record a concert-format performance as the latest release in its OperaTrezor (OperaVault) series.
In 1994, the opera enjoyed 21 performances with a double cast in a version revised by Géza Oberfrank and Dezső Mészöly. (This is the version currently being staged.) In 2004, the Hungarian Opera of Kolozsvár (Cluj-Napoca) also included the piece in its programme. The Budapest audience, however, has not heard it since 2010, when it was performed at the Opera House on the occasion of the composer's 200th birthday. A critically annotated complete edition of the work is being prepared under the auspices of the Institute of Musicology, as a project headed by Katalin Szacsvay Kim.

Before I set off on a thru-hike of the Pacific Northwest Trail in 2007, I partook in a drastic re-thinking of every piece of gear in my backpacking kit. I sewed a spinnaker tarp, some silnylon and Tyvek stuff sacks, modified my ULA Conduit pack, and weighed everything countless times. One might say I cut the handle off the proverbial toothbrush that has become the metaphor for ultralight backpacking to the masses. I copied ideas from Backpacking Light articles and forum members and scoured the Internet and my peers for suggestions and techniques, until I'd created a gear list that I believed would serve me well for two straight months of twenty-mile days. There was one item that continued to mystify me, as I could not find a commercial product or homemade solution that was just what I wanted – a case to hold my point-and-shoot camera.
Sometime during the winter of 2006, I grabbed a piece of bubble wrap and some duct tape and threw together a crude sleeve to hold my Canon Powershot SD400, then started carrying it around with me in the left-hand pocket of my pants… all the time. What I thought was a throw-away project, manufactured from scraps of garbage and a few lengths of tape, not only worked wonderfully, but was so durable and easy to use that I ended up carrying it with me for the entire 1200 miles of the PNT the following summer.
The author on his 2007 Pacific Northwest Trail Thru-Hike.
My coworkers during 2006 and 2007 nicknamed my creation the samh case, and a couple of them even created their own for their cameras. Although I didn't expect Version One to last very long, I managed to carry it in either my pocket or the hipbelt of my backpack every single day for nearly three years.
Version Two
Recently, Version One of the samh case was finally put to rest, as it had become quite tattered, and a few holes had appeared. Having been so pleased with the product I had literally thrown together in a few minutes, I decided to create Version Two using a similar design, but with the addition of a few steps and a bit more precision.
The original samh case after nearly three years of continuous use.
Make Your Own
Below and along the right side of this page, you will find photos and instructions to create your own lightweight and durable camera case. I mention that it's lightweight and durable, but with use of the proper reused materials you could even jump on the current "go green" bandwagon and score some points with treehuggers by carrying a recycled product. And yes, I can get away with calling people "treehuggers" because I am one too!
Time Required:
- About one hour
- Small sheet of bubble wrap (or similar, soft packing material)
- Duct tape and packing tape (or similar)
- Scissors
- Marker (optional)
The Process
Step One:
- Place bubble wrap bubble-side down on a flat surface and lay camera atop it. Roughly eye how much material will be needed to cover the camera in its entirety. Aside from on the "bottom" of the case, none of the material will overlap.
Step Two:
- Take the roughed-in piece of material and wrap it carefully around the camera body. With the marker and scissors, figure the exact size the material needs to be to provide a snug fit when complete. The material and tape will stretch slightly over the course of time, so getting the right fit is important. Size the depth of the pocket of the case so that the camera will sit a few millimeters below the "mouth" of the case.
Step Three:
- With the material sized properly around the camera body, place a small piece of tape on the side seam to hold it in place. Using the scissors, the next step is to make four cuts. Starting at the bottom, make a cut along each corner of the case right up to the camera body. This will create four flaps of material that will be folded over each other to form the bottom of the case.
Step Four:
- Fold the flaps of material over each other to form the bottom of the case. Start with the narrow sides first, one then the other, placing a small piece of tape to hold them together. Next, fold the side piece (that doesn't have a seam running through it) over the two narrow flaps. Cut off the fourth, seamed flap and place a piece of tape cut to the proper size across the entire bottom.
Step Five:
- Aside from holding the case together, use of tape provides durability and aesthetics. I have chosen to use two varieties, both packing tape and duct tape. The packing tape creates a water-resistant shell, and the duct tape gives a nice texture when gripping the case in hand.
- With the camera held within the walls of the bubble wrap creation that should now look somewhat like the final product, carefully wrap the entire structure in packing tape. This can be as precise or hasty a job as you wish. Being precise will create clean lines of aesthetics. Being hasty may lack pleasing aesthetics, but will still be durable.
- Be sure to wrap packing tape over every bit of the bubble wrap. The packing tape is the material that gives the case its sturdiness. At the top of the case, place the tape so a few millimeters hang over the edge. Next, snip this short flap of tape with the scissors at each corner and fold the flaps inward, protecting the bubble wrap at the mouth of the case where the camera slides in and out.
Step Six:
- Once the outside of the case is completely covered in packing tape, place some duct tape around it to create a soft, textured feel and to create a more appealing appearance. At this stage, things to consider are the use of various colors of duct tape, whether or not you wrap the entire case in duct tape, or whether you want to cut a logo or design into the duct tape. For this version, I simply wrapped duct tape around the bottom of the case and a thin strip around the case near the mouth.

Big Brother Monday....
I have decided to make every Monday until the end of the season Big Brother Monday! I only get a chance to watch the show on the weekend since that is when my husband and I watch it. So Monday's I am able to look at all the gossip. And not worry about spoiling it for me!(Please don't post any spoilers...I don't want to read them!)
First, Nick and his Top 5 list...what guys have a top 5 list of guys too? I don't have a Top 5 list of girls! Here he is discussing his top 5....
Second, what is up with Amber crying all the time? That poor girl. She cries when she is nominated and she cries when she is not! Here she is crying because Jen made her cry.
Third, Dick rocks...I really like this guy. I wish that he was my dad. I think its because that he isn't afraid to tell it like it is...and how can he do that without putting a big target on his back I'll never know. Here he is telling Jen off....again.
Also the most touching moment I have ever seen had to do with Dick and Daniele, I really teared up...it was the sweetest thing around.
There that's my Monday...

It's Wednesday, so it must be Sheffield! (sorry United fans). The third Social Media Surgery on consecutive days in Yorkshire took place tonight in the Showroom Cinema, Sheffield. Another well-attended event, with lots of positive conversations. The fact that the Surgery was organised, by the indefatigable Jag Gill to run immediately before one of the regular Sheffield Geekup events meant that there was a very good turnout of surgeons, and there we plenty of willing patients, despite the heavy snow which fell outside throughout the Surgery.
Shortly, I hope to be able to reflect on the three Yorkshire Surgeries that have happened this week, but in the interim I will simply bask in the cumulative positive glow they produce, and look forward to the York Social Media Surgery, which is scheduled for 1st March.

|If you require specific theme features you can choose to pay for a premium theme/template, or we can sometimes adapt a free theme to meet your requirements. When we build a prototype site, please do not expect to find your own contact details or customisation, as it is only intended as a framework on which we can continue to build.

The Journal of Hispanic Ufology
April 24, 2005
Source: www.ovni.net
Date: 4-18-06
Type: Animal Mutilation
Day: Early hours of April 18, 2006
Place: Urb. Pepino near San Sebastian
Time: 02:00 a.m.
Witnesses: Maria Velez, her mother, neighbors, researcher Wilfrido González, Dr. Eric de Juan Torres (veterinarian of the Borinquen Veterinary Clinic, responsible for the necropsy, etc.)
Evidence: photos, field research data and necropsy.
Summary: Maria told researcher Lucy Guzman that her mother had a dog with three puppies. On Monday, April 17 2006 at around 8:30 p.m., María heard her dogs barking frantically.
In the early hours of Tuesday April 18, at around 2:00 a.m., the neighbor's Dalmatian broke its chain and was barking at the door leading to the rear of Maria's mother's house. María's mother hollered at the dog to make it stop barking, and the animal withdrew.
Maria's mother's dog did not bark, nor was any sound heard from the pups (mixed breed - poodle with mutt). No other sound was heard aside from that.
At around 11:00 a.m., 18 April 2006, María's mother found one of the pups dead. It gave the appearance of having been suctioned through its rectum. The tail had been severed as if with scissors (the tail was found on the scene). The area, which was made of cement, showed no signs of blood. No other laceration or bite on the body was found except for the affected area in the rectum, which was completely cored out, and "some gooey, yellow secretions."
María also reported that at the time of the events no one heard anything except for the owner of the Dalmatian, who noticed that his other dog was restless inside the house and kept running from the living room to the door leading outside. Aside from this, no one has reported anything else amiss on the ground or in the air, nor has anyone seen anything or perceived strange odors at the time of the events, etc.
Maria phoned researcher Wilfredo Gonzalez of the NASAIC organization, who took photos from all angles and of the affected area, conducting field research. He later took the pup to a friend of his to perform a necropsy.
During the course of a phone conversation between Lucy Guzman and Wilfredo Gonzalez on Saturday, April 22, 2006, he told her that when he reported to Maria's mother's house, the woman had thrown the dead puppy into a trash can. Flies were covering the pup and he was forced to spray chemicals to kill them. He conducted his field research and took the carcass to Dr. Eric de Jesus Torres of the Borinquen Veterinary Clinic to perform the necropsy.
Field Research: Researcher Wilfredo Gonzalez photographed the area from a variety of angles, even the injuries presented. He verified the presence of possible prints, points of entry or other evidence, inspecting the perimeter. Noting that the area in which the events occur is practically inaccessible for any animal, since the area is an alleyway between two residences. The walls of these two residences represent walls 10 feet tall on each side, and at the end of this alley is a cyclone fence without any holes and in perfect condition. Furthermore, this fence is covered by zinc plates. There is also another gate made of galvanized pipes and cyclone fencing in the front of the alleyway. The house fence, which stands 4.5 feet, is made of cement and cyclone fencing and is also in perfect conditions.
Conclusions reached by Researcher Wilfredo Gonzalez based on the findings of Dr. Eric de Jesus Torres: The tail was severed by some type of cutting instrument, as it presented a clean cut. The wound was an open wound through which almost the entire rectum was removed; there was no tissue since it (sic) was removed and the entire border of the wound consisted of irregular edges. Unlike the tail, which was a clean cut, the open would had a size of around 2 inches in circumference. All that was left were the hind legs. No blood spots were found. During the necropsy, Dr. Torres indicated that the small animal betrayed no other signs of piercing injuries or scratches. Furthermore, he indicated that the animal had part of its intestines removed as well as the right hemisphere of its heart. No blood exam was conducted since the animal was in a histolytic condition. With regard to the viscous substance, this could not be verified, since the animal had been sprinkled with fly-killing insecticide, thus altering the substance's chemical composition. Therefore the chemical tests would not shed faithful and precise data. Dr. Torres concluded the cannot say that the mutilation was performed by a dog or any other animal, since there aren't sufficient elements to reach a conclusion.

Veterans exercise leadership at U.S. Paralympic Swimming Team Camp
She carried her tray to the cleaning rack and left the dining hall as if it was no big deal. It's not like she's preparing for her third Paralympic Games or anything.
Popovich, a seven-time gold medalist at the 2004 Paralympic Games in Athens, was going through the motions for the third time. But she attended last weekend's 2008 Paralympic Games Team Camp as if for the first time - excited, nervous and willing to work hard.
The purpose of the camp was to bring the U.S. Paralympic Swimming Team together, since the athletes normally are dispersed throughout the country while training. All 38 swimmers share the same dream, and bringing them together let them know they are not on an individual path.
U.S. Paralympic Swimming Coach and Team Leader Jimi Flowers has conducted a number of camps over the years, and thought last weekend's was one of the best yet.
"It was a perfect step. It was perfect timing," Flowers said. "They got all of the aspects - team building, they looked good in the water, they got pictures of what to look forward to."
It was a chance to bring everybody together and realize that their passion for swimming can really make something out of their lives. Their backgrounds didn't matter, because they all realized that they have the opportunity of a lifetime in front of them, and can rely on each other to help make it a success.
"I think the cool thing about this camp was it wasn't just another camp," Flowers said. "I personally think they had a good time. I think they really came together. We're still eleven weeks out of the Games. That's not much time. We leave in eight and a half weeks. They all know that now. But with that said, they know it can be very special."
Of course, the skills Flowers saw in the water were the most exciting part for him, but others who have been in this position before, came away from the weekend with different thoughts on their minds.
"It's great to see everybody and kind of catch up with how the rest of the team is doing," Popovich said about the camp. "I'd met everybody briefly, but this is the first time I got to spend a longer period of time with them."
Because for Popovich, being comfortable at the Games means knowing your surroundings.
"I think the best part about this camp is it kind of helps get all the pre-meeting and getting to know each other jitters out of the way," Popovich explained. "You don't have to show up at the Games and be like 'Oh hi, I'm so and so.' "
Team building activities were a success at camp because the dynamics were exceptional between the veterans and the newcomers.
"I think they're aware of what they need to do," Flowers said about those who have never been to the Games before. "I think there are some anxieties, which are understandable. I think the younger ones that have not had the experience know that there is someone there for them to help with those anxieties."
Popovich enjoyed getting the chance to play the veteran role and offer advice to her younger teammates. She believes they should get the overall feeling of how to prepare for competition both from the coaches perspective and the athletes' perspective.
"We all throw in tidbits from our experiences," Popovich said about those who have competed in the Games before.
Popovich, who turns 23 next week, has been swimming for 10 years now but still gets the jitters before major competitions. Naturally, she is nervous for Beijing, but feels confident the U.S. team is the best one she's been a part of so far.
"I think this team is by far the best that we've ever sent to Worlds or a Paralympic Games," she said. "If you look at the rankings and the depth of the team, it's so much stronger than in 2006 and in 2004, just with the ability to reach out to more kids and get everybody involved, and get more resources to them in order to provide them the training environments that they need in order to get to that next level."
Meanwhile, at the age of 56, Grover Evans (Little Rock, Ark.) will be competing in his fourth Paralympic Games. And for Evans, the excitement he had going into his first Games in Barcelona in 1992 is still present.
"You have people from all parts of the country, and to see what they're doing compared to what you're doing, and to see how they're training, I think it's great," Evans said.
Despite being the oldest one on the team, Evans classifies himself in the same pool as the rest of the swimmers.
"Age is nothing but a number," Evans said. "When you lose the kid inside of you, that's when you begin to age."
Evans may discount his age, but he doesn't forget about his experience in the pool. At camp, he felt that he should help teach the younger ones how to prepare for the competition of their lives and how to deal with the pressure.
"I'm trying to tell them 'act like it's practice, don't worry about the other guy,' " Evans said. "If you just do a personal best, and maybe you don't medal, (you) still are successful in an event."
Evans echoes Popovich's sentiments when it comes to the depth of the team.
"This is a strong team," Evans said. "I don't think many of the younger ones realize how much strength they really have."
In addition to Evans and Popovich, Flowers has seen others mature quickly as well.
"You've also got Jarrett Perry, who was elected team captain, who's a gold medalist from Athens, and Dave Denniston who's not been to a Paralympic Games but he's been on several national teams," Flowers said. "So with that knowledge and experience from both sides, I think they could really help our younger guys really do something good."
Although some of the athletes have been coined 'veterans,' they are just as excited as the rest of the team for the Games.
Flowers said "the veterans got excited about Beijing," last weekend. "They've been to Games, they've been to villages that may have been not so conducive to training and to competing, (but) this is going to be a good situation."
At the conclusion of the camp, Flowers knew he did his job when he saw finally saw the team come together.
"Both the men's and women's team are a team," Flowers said. "Even though they are said men and women, they all know they are USA."

My "call"
In seminary the most common question after "Wait, that's due TODAY?" is "so tell me about your call"; in other words, "when did you know you were called by God/god/the Holy Spirit/the Divine/some higher force to go into religious leadership?" I knew some folks who have a very definitive "call" story but for me it was a long series of revelations. What it boils down to is that I loved social justice work but I felt like there was something missing and, for me, that something was spirit of community.
When I started seriously considering religious leadership as a career path I contacted the alumni office and asked for a list of any COA alums who had gone onto religious leadership. Recognizing that not everyone keeps in touch with their undergrad and still others may be highly active in religious communities without having attained a professional degree in the subject, it was still a disappointingly small list.
There were four names on it.
Now I know that College of the Atlantic is not a large school but even within that reality four is a small number of people. Organized religion is just not a huge part of the day to day life of students at College of the Atlantic; it wasn't really a big part of my life when I started there in 2007. Over time, though, I found myself being pulled in that direction and grasping hold of the thought that ministry was not an incompatible goal within the context of human ecology. I even wrote my human ecology paper on the 7 principles of Unitarian Universalism as my personal definition of human ecology.
I took those names and happily one of the people, Paul, was a minister from my own denomination, Unitarian Universalism; we were able to talk on the phone and even meet up in person at our national denominational meeting the following June. Later, when I was accepted into the Master of Divinity program at Boston University School of Theology, Paul shared that news with his congregation during their sharing of joys and sorrows.
Religious Education
Boston University School of Theology isn't like College of the Atlantic in almost any way. There are students, faculty, staff, and buildings but beyond that they are pretty dissimilar. I'm at one of the larger research universities in the country, sitting in lectures with nationally renowned theologians, and a member of the Boston Theological Institute which gives me access to all 10 divinity schools here in Boston and the surrounding areas. Martin Luther King Jr. went to seminary here as the school is so fond of reminding people.
When I walked in here on that first day of orientation I was met with the nervous energy of a bunch of adults acting like middle schoolers at that first dance where nobody wants to step into the middle and just go for it. If you'll remember COA orientation it involves a scavenger hunt and jumping into the ocean. Seminary orientation involved prayer and a whole lot of Jesus.
Unitarian Universalism is unique in that it's not a specifically Christian denomination that grew out of the merger of the Unitarians and the Universalists in 1961. We're historically very liberal; both denominations have been ordaining women since the mid-1800s, openly gay people since the late 1970s, openly transgender people since the 1980s, and we've often been at the forefront of various social justice campaigns.
While at College of the Atlantic my identity as an openly transgender social justice activist was never a concern to almost anybody; in seminary I realized I had little in common with my classmates. There were a few gay and lesbian people, and a person here and there who clearly had some understanding of LGBTQ issues. I wasn't suddenly thrown into school with a bunch of people who were going to try to save me from the sins of my homosexuality but I wasn't with people who I felt like I could relax around.
Now THAT'S what I call Human Ecology
I have a therapist. I swear the first two things ministers tell you when you tell them you're planning to go into ministry are 1) "don't" and 2) "get a therapist." So I have this therapist who said to try to treat school as an anthropological exploration. She wanted me to act as an outsider learning about this other culture without fully immersing myself in it if that was too painful. That's not how I learned to learn in my time at College of the Atlantic. As human ecologists we don't learn only by observing but by immersion and participation in community.
As a human ecologist I am asked to study how I and others interact with our natural and human-manufactured environments. Seminary is a human manufactured environment; we sit in rooms and learn how to read ancient texts, or how to talk to somebody about a crisis in their life, or how to evangelize (yes, that is an actual class and no, I don't plan to put it into practice as it was taught). I cannot learn from the outside; I have to jump in and try to carve out a space for myself while respecting that others don't see that space for me as valid.
So I'm here. Things have calmed down a little. People are used to seeing me around even if a number of them don't really agree with my "lifestyle." I know that my own denomination is fully supportive even if some of the people I'm in school with don't understand how that could be. I am serving my denomination on a national level as the Young Adult worship coordinator and on a local level I help lead worship, work with children, and provide pastoral care for people going through difficult times.
The future
I've only just finished my first year so I don't definitively know where I'm going in the future. If I could pick my ideal future career I'd serve as an associate minister with a focus on social justice. I'd be able to continue my social justice work through a ministerial context while still working within a congregational setting. I think the liberal faith voice is essential when "liberal" and "faith" are often pitted against one another in our national dialogues. My background as an activist is integral to my future as a minister and my education as a human ecologist is the lens through which I act in the world. College of the Atlantic has been a non-traditional but hugely beneficial platform from which to approach seminary.

Some iPhone users and bloggers are reporting that older iPhones updated to iOS 6 are draining their batteries much faster than before, and sometime heating up during or after recharging.
Based on posts at Apple's online support boards and other online forums, it's difficult to know what the cause or causes are, and how widespread the problem is. The boards are replete with complex experiments by users trying a wide range of fixes to the battery life problem.
ROUNDUP: 15 Best iPhone Apps for Newbies (2012)
MEETING OF THE MINDS: Former Apple, NASA engineers wed to brew up insanely great coffee
Yet iPhone 5, with a bigger screen, LTE support, and a more powerful CPU seems to have excellent battery life. InformationWeek's Eric Zeman noted the discrepancy as he was reviewing the newest iPhone. "Combined, these [new features] might have been a disaster for the iPhone 5's battery life," he wrote in a blog post this week. "Instead, the slightly larger battery in the iPhone 5 and the way the A6 processor handles iOS 6 means excellent power management."
"But iOS 6 isn't as friendly to the iPhone 4S and iPhone 4 when it comes to battery life," he writes. "I've installed iOS 6 on both the iPhone 4S and 4, and, have noticed, along with other users, that battery life has taken a pretty big hit on these older iPhones."
At least a few users say they see similar battery life drops running iOS 6 on their iPads. According to one of Zeman's commenters, Mike Schmidt, "Same here. I upgraded my iPhone 4 and my iPad 3 and both have very much reduced battery life. So much so, that I missed taking some more pics at the Ryder Cup yesterday in Chicago. I may go back to IOS5 and hope the problem clears up."
A Network World request to Apple public relations about this issue had not yet received an acknowledgement when this story was posted.
One discussion thread on Apple's support boards, "iOS 6 iPhone 4s battery drain," had just over 116,000 views and nearly 800 comments by Monday afternoon, Oct. 1. Another thread, "Is iOS 6 draining iPhone 4 battery faster?" had 40,718 views and 247 replies.
"I'm using an iPhone 4S and with iOS5 I had to recharge it every 2 days," posted Vincentthu. "Since iOS 6 I need several recharge a day and my wifi is not working anymore (Greyed out - that's another problem). My solution: Deactivate 'cellular data' and deactivate 3G. I removed GPS too and SIRI and all options are deactivated. Notifications are turned off. Now it's better but my phone is as usefull as a Nokia from the 90's."
Some users are finding shockingly fast battery drains. "I updated to IOS6 last night and my ip4 went from 36-48 hours between charges to draining completely and dying from 6:30am to 11am this morning, mostly just sitting in my pocket," posted Thedjprice. "*** apple unacceptable. I used the device for roughly 30-45 minutes and the rest of the time it sat in my pocket."
One common recommendation, often from Apple staff at the company's retail stores or from other users online, was to reset one's phone as a "new phone." But that didn't work for lcroke0002, who did it four times, twice at an Apple retail store, "all to no avail," he posted. "I have run 3 battery cycles and turned off/on all types of apps (Apple and non-Apple). Battery and heat issues still exist." On Sunday night, he got a phone call "from an Apple tech who monitors the boards and he had me install a battery profile on my phone" to create a file of activity. According to the tech, it's a software issue. "Tonight I will speak to him again and send the file the profile is creating. Hopefully, this gets resolved quickly."
One of the baffling aspects to the problem is its lack of consistency. "This also doesn't happen every time," posted another user, Grayum Baker. "For example, I was home all day yesterday and my battery worked normally. Then, last evening it started draining almost 1% every minute or two. I read an article earlier in the day that recommended Reset All Settings and force quitting all active background apps. I did that late last evening and still had the problem. I turned off Siri. Still draining. At bedtime I turned the phone off while recharging. This morning the battey seems to be normal again."
Some users stumbled on apparent solutions. TracyLynnT deleted her Facebook account from the iOS 6 integrated Facebook feature in Settings. "I started thinking that since the FB integration updates your contacts and calendar it is probably constantly receiving data," she wrote. "My battery seems to be back to normal after doing that."
Another, annafromcapon bridge, said she logged out of her Facebook app, and "turned off all the iCloud stuff except for 'Find My Iphone' and my battery is back to normal. Now I access FB using the Chrome browser. I leave Safari off most of the time (unless is autoloads when I click on a link in an email, for example). My notifications and location settings were already at a minimum. I also drained the battery and then charged it overnight. Battery is back to the way it was before IOS 6 update."
But those kinds of "fixes" had other users grumbling. ChicagoBubba noted that he was now routinely turning off Cellular Data to conserve battery. "I see many people are willing to just shut things off freely, and I can't understand any justification for doing so," he wrote. "Why buy an iPhone just to cripple it and say you only text and make calls anyway? In that case these people might be better off with a simple flip phone."
"I found something that "works" but it's not really a fix and is really really annoying," posted Resterix, who with his wife and a friend all had factory-unlocked iPhone 4S models. "If I turn off 3g and cellular data, and then do a hard restart of the phone, we can go all day and only lose about 15% of battery life. Once I turn 3g or cellular data on, even with all apps closed, we'll lose 1% every 3-5 minutes on standby."
He describes a maddeningly manual sequence of events: "So, if i'm out and want to use data, I have to go into settings, turn on 3g and cellular data. Do the thing I wanted to do. Then, go back into settings, turn off 3g and cellular and then do a hard restart.. I am thinking it has something to do with the factory unlocked iphones, as my friends who have carrier locked phones don't seem to have any battery issues."

Downtown Dallas, TX Real Estate
Population: 1,188,580 (Dallas) Since the early 1990's more than 10,500 lofts, apartments and condominiums have been constructed within a mile of Main and Akard streets, the heart of downtown Dallas. Based on continued demand and a strong local economy, construction of an additional 2,000 units is underway or has been announced. Although most of the 10,500 units are in new buildings, the most spectacular spaces are not on the fringes, but in the heart of Downtown in salvaged warehouses and factories. With their tall ceilings and dramatic views, these converted lofts epitomize New Urbanism. Downtown residents represent all constituencies -- singles, young professionals, young married couples, middle-age professionals and empty nesters -- anyone who wants to be close to museums, theater and sidewalk cafes.
