Area VFW member's art earns top state recognition
Submitted Photo -- Melissa High School graduate Nicole Denton's 'Spirit of the Fallen Soldier' won first place in Texas in the national Patriot Art program, which annually awards college scholarships to winners. Denton, previously a student at McKinney North High School, is a lifetime member of the McKinney VFW post.
By Chris Beattie, email@example.com
American patriotism beckons a world away from the Middle East. On a canvas.
Through its recent participation in the annual Patriot Art program, Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Lone Star Post 2150 pushed DFW to the forefront of that beckoning.
Melissa High School graduate Nicole Denton's "Spirit of the Fallen Soldier" artwork won out over more than 350 entries for first place in Texas.
As did the VFW post's ladies auxiliary, who sponsor the program every year. They selected Denton's painting -- her rendition of the Fallen Soldier Battle Cross -- to be judged against art entries from hundreds of other Texas posts.
"As soon as we saw the entry from Nicole Denton, we knew she had a very good chance of winning," said Almeta Nichols, an officer of the auxiliary. "The picture feels like you can reach out and touch the spirit of the soldier."
A somber arrangement of a soldier's rifle, topped by a helmet and stuck between empty boots, represents a cross on the battlefield or at the base camp of a soldier killed in battle. Denton weaved an American flag around the cross to complete an aesthetic testament to a soldier's life, too often cut short.
She submitted with her art a description of its meaning, an explanation of how inanimate objects left standing alone symbolize "the valor, the courage and the sacrifice of the hero that once wore the boots and the helmet and carried the weapons to war in honor and protection of his country, his comrades, and you and me."
It's a sacrifice Denton knows well. Because of her VFW-member grandparents, she's spent time at the post since she was 12, and became an official member at age 16.
With roots traced back to 1899 when veterans of the Spanish-American War and the Philippine Insurrection founded local organizations to secure rights and benefits for their service, VFW remains an ever-present home to past, present and future U.S. military members.
Veterans have formed chapters across the nation, and have been the voice that helped establish the Veterans Administration and create GI Bills for the 20th and 21st centuries, expanding educational benefits for America's active-duty and post-duty service members.
More than 2 million VFW members and its auxiliary annually spend 11 million volunteer hours in local communities and provide close to $4 million in college scholarships and savings bonds to students, according to VFW's national website.
The Patriot Art program is open to any high school student and judged on three levels: by the local sponsoring post, at state and at the VFW National level. The national winner is awarded a $15,000 scholarship.
Denton's artwork earned her a $500 scholarship, which she received last weekend at the state VFW convention in Addison. Her entry finished in the top 200 out of more than 10,000 art pieces nationwide.
"Members, auxiliaries and friends of the post are all so proud of Nicole and her accomplishments," Nichols said. "Being a nonprofit organization, it is always nice to have the recognition for our continued hard work."
While Denton's award will help her pursue a career teaching art, as she desires, her VFW membership seemingly has no price. Often the youngest member, she attends monthly post meetings, cooks for veterans on Fridays and volunteers at the Veterans Affairs (VA) North Texas hospital in Bonham.
"It's not really something other kids get into," Denton said. "I love talking to veterans and hearing their stories."
And honoring stories like that of Cody Board, killed in the line of duty in October 2010 in Afghanistan. Denton and Board were friends at McKinney North High School, where she attended her freshman year.
It's those stories that inspired her art. They fuel the patriotism that pervades VFW posts in DFW and beyond.
They pronounce its beckoning.
"I'm so honored to know these people," Denton said. "I will always be a part of VFW."

If we had to sum up Rita&Zia in a few words, we would use quality, authentic, chic, and timeless. Materials and symbols rooted in a style that is both Zen and Hippy, and yet remains chic, bohemian, and rock 'n' roll.
More than just jewellery, Rita&Zia's creations are genuine accessories to accentuate your look with an authentic edge. Each symbol brings its own meaning: luck, love, happiness, or protection; with the clover, horseshoe, tree of life, Indian, or hand of Fatima.
All Rita&Zia jewellery is handmade at our workshop in Geneva, and all of the symbols are in solid silver or gold plated. Rita&Zia jewellery and accessories can be worn, mixed, and adopted by people of any culture or religion.
There are no borders or rivalries, only the desire to adopt a trend with no ulterior motive.

EMCC Lions fall, 77-67, to Holmes in semis of NJCAA Region 23 hoops tourney |
CLINTON, Miss. – The third time was not a charm for the East Mississippi men's basketball team, as the Lions dropped a 77-67 decision to Holmes Wednesday afternoon in the semifinals of the 2009 NJCAA Region 23 Tournament played at A.E. Wood Coliseum on the Mississippi College campus. The 10-point regional loss to the Bulldogs marked EMCC's third setback to Holmes on the season. During the regular season, Holmes prevailed by scores of 82-68 in Scooba and 68-63 in Goodman. During Wednesday's regional action in Clinton, the Bulldogs scored seven straight points early in the contest to take a 17-8 lead with 13:20 remaining. The Lions answered with an 8-0 run to cut the deficit to a single point (17-16) by the midway point of the opening period. Later in the half with EMCC still trailing by a point (25-24) following a Larry Foster basket, Holmes' Al Graham hit back-to-back 3-pointers to ignite an 11-3 run that gave the Bulldogs a 36-27 halftime advantage. After surviving 12 first-half turnovers, the Lions cut a 13-point deficit with eight minutes remaining to four points by going on an 11-2 spurt. Freshman Terence Bennett's three-point play and Darian Donald's put-back basket sandwiched a Holmes turnover to pull EMCC to within four points (62-58) with 5:35 left in the game. The Lions had a chance to make it a one-possession game after Holmes' Gabe Osagie missed a pair of free throws, but Foster misfired on a subsequent trey attempt. The Bulldogs' Jonathan Ratliff countered with a three-point play to make it a seven-point contest (65-58) with 4:10 on the clock. East Mississippi would not get any closer the rest of the way, as the Bulldogs pulled away for the 10-point triumph. Holmes will meet Mississippi Gulf Coast in Thursday's 8 p.m. championship game of the NJCAA Region 23 Men's Basketball Tournament. Finishing the season with a 17-11 overall record, head coach Mark White's Lions were led by the Starkville tandem of Coco Ware and Woodie Howard with 16 and 14 points, respectively. Donald of Caledonia High School added a dozen points, while Foster scored all nine of his points in the first half and Bennett tallied all of his nine points in the second stanza. Graham and Randy Lightfoot led the way for the Bulldogs with 13 points apiece, while Osagie and Clyde Moore added 11 and 10 points, respectively. |

Shortly after my purchase of my new car the rubber on the passenger window was falling off. Needless to say, I was a little upset but worry-free because I knew it wouldn't take much to get it fixed. Knowing that, I decided to take my car to get serviced on my lunch break. Although I was notified of the estimated time of completion and was perfectly fine with the wait, it still took longer than what was anticipated for such a minor fix of glue to be applied to the inside rubber panel of the passenger window. I was late getting back to work from lunch. But, to end on a positive note, I know now that service issues are hard to predict how long something will take to be completed and one thing can lead to another. Also, the time flew by due to the friendly staff that kept me in good company and conversation while I waited which really took the edge off. All in all I was satisfied. Read More >>

When to Seek Medical CareThe reaction to the contrast is almost always immediate, so it is very rare to have a reaction after the patient leaves the facility. However, if a patient thinks they are having a delayed reaction to the contrast, they should call the facility where they had the exam. Symptoms include itching and difficulty breathing or swallowing. If contrast leaked under the skin, the patient should look for increased redness, swelling, or pain. Patients will often be asked to come back the next day so their skin can be checked. There are no side effects of the exam itself. Must Read Articles Related to CT Scan

Students asked to describe the true meaning of the holidays
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) November 16, 2012
State Farm Insurance Agent Vivian Valtas has announced the start of the third annual Twelve Days of Christmas Bike Giveaway, an essay contest that promotes literacy and creative writing among students in the Chicago metro area. Winners of the contest will receive a bicycle courtesy of Valtas' State Farm office.
The contest gives students ages 7-12 the opportunity to craft an essay describing their ideas of what the spirit of Christmas truly means. Essays are collected and reviewed by Valtas and her colleagues, who choose the winners based on the quality and creativity of the contestants' writing. Each year, more than a dozen bicycles are awarded to students based on their submissions.
"This contest is a great opportunity for children to really express themselves and be rewarded for their hard work, creativity and positive attitude toward others," said Valtas. "Having these kids write on a topic like the spirit of Christmas encourages them to think about the meaning of the holidays and how they can potentially help others in their community. We're always thrilled by the creative ideas presented in these essays."
Students wishing to participate in the Twelve Days of Christmas Bike Giveaway should submit their essays to Vivian Valtas at 5446 S. Archer Ave., Chicago, IL 60638. Along with the essay, students should also specify their height and favorite color to ensure they get the perfect bicycle if they are named a winner. The parents of winners will also be asked to sign a release form allowing for the disclosure of their children's names and essays to local media outlets.
In addition to the Twelve Days of Christmas Bike Giveaway, Valtas' State Farm Agency also donates bicycles to the Valentine Boys and Girls Club. The agency is known for its community involvement and focus on local youth, and the contest is just another example of the firm's continued focus on the human aspect of its services.
For more information about State Farm Insurance, Vivian Valtas or the Twelve Days of Christmas Bike Giveaway, call 773-247-6500.
About Vivian Valtas: Vivian Valtas holds an MBA from Ohio State University Fisher College of Business, as well as a bachelor's degree in mathematics education from Youngstown State University.

The new ad campaign comes as the Supreme Court prepares to tackle the issue of same-sex marriage this spring. Last year the high court agreed to hear two constitutional challenges to state and federal laws dealing with the recognition of gay and lesbian couples to legally wed.
Oral arguments will be held on March 26 and 27, with a ruling by late June.

Monumental Changes for Global ManufacturingRecently, I was greeted with the news that US manufacturing has begun the new year with a bang. Preliminary estimates from Markit Economics reveal that the US manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) rose from 54.0 in December to 56.1 in January -- the strongest manufacturing expansion since March 2011. A PMI reading above 50 indicates manufacturing expansion. The January estimates not only show the fastest rise in new orders in 32 months, but they also confirm improvements in overall business conditions. Additionally, the numbers suggest further strengthening in manufacturing employment. Chris Williamson, chief economist at Markit, said in a press release: Global economic growth is reviving, meaning companies are seeing stronger demand from emerging markets such as China and India as well as parts of Europe, notably Germany. However, it is the domestic market that is clearly providing the main impetus to the upturn, linked to improved confidence in the future given more aggressive stimulus from the Fed and reduced fears about the fiscal cliff. The US isn't the only country showing solid improvement in its manufacturing performance. HSBC said China's manufacturing PMI rose from 51.5 in December to a 22-month high of 51.9 in January. Though the world's top two economies are starting the year with great optimism, the high-tech industry recognizes that it will take much longer to identify how long-term growth (in these two nations and others) will impact manufacturing expansion plans. Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited's global manufacturing industry group and the US Council on Competitiveness recently released a report that predicts monumental changes. The report, based on a survey of 550 CEOs and other senior leaders at manufacturers around the world, says that emerging nations will become vastly more competitive as they persuade companies to start plants there during the next five years. China is expected to retain its position as the world's most competitive manufacturing nation, the report said, but India will supplant Germany in the No. 2 spot, and Brazil will replace the US at No. 3. If we are to believe the predictions outlined in this report, Europe and North America, once the cornerstones of global manufacturing, are fading fast. By 2018, the majority of survey respondents expect Germany to fall to No. 4 and the US to fall to No. 5, only slightly ahead of South Korea -- think Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. (Korea: SEC). Germany isn't the only European nation set to lose its competitive edge. The UK, France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Portugal, Poland, and the Czech Republic are all expected to experience a dramatic drop in competitiveness on the global manufacturing landscape. Poland will drop from No. 14 to No. 18, according to the report, and the UK will drop from No. 15 to No. 19. The more traditional manufacturing nations hold some advantages -- talent-driven innovation and advanced local economic, trade, financial and tax systems, for example -- but the report said these factors may not be enough. More than 80 percent of respondents agreed or strongly agreed that the US, Germany, and Japan are highly competitive in terms of talent-driven innovation. Only 58 percent said the same about China, and 40 percent said that about Brazil. More than 70 percent of respondents agreed or strongly agreed that Germany and the US were extremely competitive in their tax systems. These two countries (along with Japan) also scored well in terms of their legal systems, infrastructure development, and supplier networks. However, one area where emerging nations have an edge is labor. Ninety percent of global executives called China extremely competitive in labor costs and availability, and 87 percent said that about India. If the projections laid out in this report prove accurate, talk of a revived US manufacturing base might just be that -- pure talk. Certainly, for original equipment manufacturers in North America and Europe, ceding a high-tech advantage first to China and in the near future to countries like India, Brazil, Indonesia, and Vietnam will come with its own rewards and challenges. In the US, manufacturing growth would boost the GDP, increase the number of higher-paying jobs, and advance research and development, to name a few critical benefits. That simply won't occur to the extent many had hoped. Even in the face of obstacles, there is hope that enough high-tech manufacturing expansion will take place in the US to boost its economic growth in the years ahead. It might be best to hold on to whatever manufacturing we can realistically generate, rather than pining for what might have been. |

You've heard the saying "the No. 1 supply chain risk is your people." That hasn't always been the case. But today's complex global supply chain requires a new type of multitalented employee.

Model 66310 QTH Source with 66270 Collimating Lens Assembly, mounted on an optical rod.
If youre looking for a low wattage VIS-NIR source that is inexpensive and easy to operate, choose this source. The 66310 runs our 10 and 20 W QTH lamps. It is an economical alternative to our more versatile Series Q Sources, which hold lamps to 100 W.
The 66310 includes everything necessary to operate the selected lamp. It consists of:
The 63205 Housing is an inexpensive enclosure for the lamp. It has a 0.93-inch (23.5 mm) diameter opening and a filter holder. Use 1 inch (25 mm) diameter filters, for wavelength selection. The base of the housing has a socket adapter that holds either lamp in a horizontal position. Operating the lamp in a horizontal configuration produces an image of the filament that is better suited to illumination of a vertical monochromator slit. Rod mounting, utilizing the 1/4-20 tapped hole in the housing base, allows height adjustment of the optical axis.
The 63941 is a DC power supply designed to run these low wattage lamps. It is switch selectable for 110/220 V.
The 63205 Housing does not come with a collimating lens, but we offer the optional 66270 Collimating Assembly. This is a bracket with lens holder that mounts to the lamp housing and allows positioning of a 1.5-inch (38 mm) diameter lens one focal length away from the lamp. Use lenses with focal lengths between 40 and 75 mm, and a maximum thickness of 13 mm. We make some recommendations below. The clear aperture of the lens holder is 1.3 inches (33 mm).
The 66275 is a rod mounted bracket that holds the housing at a low optical axis. The lowest centerline height is 2.8 inches (71 mm).

Two questions, OP: In the command line you posted, what goes in for {name}, and,I do have a copy of 2012.12--do you trust it? I don't want to go thru this mess again. I'm pretty sure 2012.08 works.--doug
md5sum /dev/dvd
dd if=/dev/dvd of=/path/to/image/file.iso bs=2048
Answering my own question: From the 2012.12 DVD, the sound does NOT work--there is no "Blang" when it boots, and from theInternet, Youtube sound does not play. From a 2010.10 CD, sound DOES work--the "Blang" and the Youtube. I don't know what this proves, but there's the information.FWIW, the computer does not shut off from the 2010 disk either.--doug
I have run the commands lsmod and lspci under three situations: the installed 2012.12, the DVDLive 2012.12, and the CDLive 2010.10.The outputs are a bit large. Shall I post them here, or is there some way to attach a zipped version and send it either to the list or toyou, Pags?--doug

São Paulo is a megalopolis of 19 million people, with endless stands of skyscrapers defining the horizon from every angle. The largest city in South America, São Paulo even makes New York City, with its population of about 8 million, seem small in comparison. And this nearly 500-year-old capital of São Paulo State gets bigger every year: it now sprawls across some 8,000 square km (3,089 square mi), of which 1,525 square km (589 square mi) make up the city proper.

[Solved] Clicking radio button sends to top of page
I have a form with some radio buttons setup, I'm having an issue that when you make a selection it scrolls the page to the top. It seems to be happening just in FF and Opera.
It's not adding an id to the url or anything, it just scrolls to the top. I can't figure out what's going on with it.
Any ideas?
Looks like in your gravityforms.js has some window scroll to top functions, line 485: scrollTop = $window.scrollTop();
Unless you feel like debuging tons of js maybe try a different script
Ahh... thanks, it's actually in jquery.colorbox.js. I'm not sure why they're using that. I'm going to play around with it a bit and see if I can make some adjustments to it.
I don't think that's the problem, I completely removed jquery.colorbox.js and it's still happening.
The only other reference to scrolltop I could find is in admin-bar.js and that's not loaded unless someone is logged in.
I guess I'll keep digging.
Ok, so I figured it out. This was a CSS problem. I was removing the inputs for the radio buttons by positioning them off of the screen instead of just hiding them with visibility.

EcoAqua Replacement For WF1CB Filter
- Change Every 6 Months
- 300 Gallon Capacity
If you have a 6-month filter, schedule your filter changes when daylight savings changes. When you "spring forward" or "fall back" setting clocks around the house, change your filter at the same time.
There are three different refrigerator water filters to choose from when you need to replace a model WF1CB filter. All three water filters will remove the chlorine, lead and other impurities from the drinking water and ice produced by the refrigerator. Each of the filters should be replaced every 6 months to make sure your water and ice remain pure and contaminant free. If you do not replace the filter in a timely manner, then it will not work properly and will start to allow chemicals to enter your drinking water.
The first two filters are aftermarket replacement refrigerator filters that are manufactured by WaterSentinel and AquaFresh. Both products will work in Frigidaire and Kenmore refrigerators. While the filters are not factory original products, they are made to the same standards as the original product to make sure that the water remains pure. The only difference between the two aftermarket filters is a slight difference in pressure range.
The third model WF1CB refrigerator water filter is a factory original product manufactured by Frigidaire. Since the water filter is a factory original product, it is made with OEM parts and has been tested against filtration standards set by NSF International. This cannot be said about the two aftermarket fridge filters.

Associate Editor
The Thomaston-Upson Industrial Development Authority (TUIDA) held their first meeting of 2013 last week, with the new board being optimistic about the future of economic development in our area.
"It is hard to compete with some of the other counties and in a lot of cases they have had more to offer," said new TUIDA Chairman Billy Johnston. "But we do have a good board, a good director and we have some good property available. We have a lot of things going for us."
Johnston was nominated to the chairmanship by Thomaston Mayor Hays Arnold, who also serves on the TUIDA Board. Arnold stated he felt Johnston's long tenure of being a board member, coupled with the fact he is a business person, specifically relating to small business, would serve him well as chairman. The rest of the board agreed and approved Johnston unanimously.
Other officers elected at the meeting were: Steve Daniel, Vice Chair; Kyle Fletcher, Secretary and Frank King, Assistant Secretary. Also, Wayne Driver was selected as the TUIDA Auditor; Ronnie VanHouten was selected as the Financial Services provider and Joel Bentley as the TUIDA Attorney. Board members Commission Chairman Rusty Blackston and Scott Blackstock were selected to serve on the West Central Georgia Joint Authority, which serves Pike, Lamar and Upson Counties. TUIDA Director Kyle Fletcher noted that a benefit of serving on this board is that it gives an extra $500 tax credit for each job created for the participating communities. The annual meeting served as the first for Blackston, Blackstock, King and Daniel.
Fletcher was happy to relay to the board that several local industries were reporting an increase in sales and productivity for 2012. She stated that Standard Textile Human Resources manager Michael Green said things are looking up due to the fact that people are demanding products made in the USA. Also, sales were up for Keadle Lumber and Chief Manufacturing. In addition to that, both companies were reporting that employees of the younger generation are performing with a better work ethic and attitude, which had been a concern in recent months.
The board was also notified of some graffiti at the spec building; with someone spray painting "DAWG" on the northwest wall. Fletcher stated she was notified by the foreman of the mowing crew of the graffiti and he told her there was a solution he could use to clean it off. She is working with the Sheriff's Office and will get back with the board if there is any cost for the cleanup.
As a final order of business, a board retreat was set to be held on Friday, February 22.

BELPRE, Ohio — Hitting free throws down the stretch usually leads to victory.
The Belpre boys basketball team hit 8-of-9 from the charity stripe in the fourth period to seal the 61-54 Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division victory over South Gallia in Washington County.
Belpre (11-9, 11-4 TVC Hocking) took the early lead with a 15-to-13 run in the opening stanza, but South Gallia (5-16, 3-12) answered with a 10-to-7 spurt in the second to take the one point halftime edge.
The Golden Eagles regained the lead after halftime, as they out scored SGHS 15-to-13 in the third period. The Rebels had their best offensive quarter of the night in the finale, as they scored 18 points, led by Brayden Greer with 12. BHS had an answer however, as the Golden Eagles scored 24 in the fourth to claim the 61-54 victory.
Greer led the Rebels with 17 points on the night, followed by Ethan Swain with 15 and Landon Hutchinson with 11. Kody Lambert chipped in with nine points, while Michael Wheeler rounded out the SGHS scoring with two.
South Gallia went 7-of-12 (58.3 percent) from the line and hit five three-pointers on the night. Lambert hit a trio of three's for the Rebels, while Greer and Swain each drained one triple.
The Golden Eagles were led by Dakota Hoffman with 22 points, 11 of which came in the fourth period. Brennen Ferrell marked nine points, while Bryce Pittenger and Nick Therriault each had eight points. Ryan Leasure added seven points, Sam Petty contributed four and Austin Forshey rounded out the BHS total with three points.
On the night Belpre shot 9-of-13 (69.2 percent) from the line, while connecting on six triples. Ferrell made three three-pointers, Hoffman had two, and Forshey connected on one.
Belpre also defeated South Gallia in their first meeting of the season, on January 8th by a count of 49-45 in Mercerville. The Golden Eagles also swept SGHS last season.
The Rebels have now lost six consecutive games. Belpre is still in the hunt for a a co-league title but the will need to defeat visiting Waterford Friday night and have Federal Hocking lose at Trimble.

When Hannah Johnson wrote President Abraham Lincoln in the summer of 1863, she expressed the concerns of any mother with a son fighting a war.
But she had a special request: "I am a colored woman and my son was strong and able as any to fight for his country and the colored people have as much to fight for as any.... Will you see that the colored men fighting now, are fairly treated. You ought to do this, and do it at once."
On Jan. 1, 1863, the Emancipation Proclamation became the first authorization by an American president to enroll Johnson's son, and other black men, as legal soldiers for the United States military.
Emancipation and the enlistment of black soldiers were not Lincoln's initial impulse. He wanted to make a gradual change, as he wrote in this letter explaining his shift to an advisor:
"When, in March, and May, and July 1862 I made earnest, and successive appeals to the border states to favor compensated emancipation, I believed the indispensable necessity for military emancipation, and arming the blacks would come, unless averted by that measure. They declined the proposition; and I was, in my best judgment, driven to the alternative of either surrendering the Union, and with it, the Constitution, or of laying strong hand upon the colored element. I chose the latter."
By the end of the Civil War, black soldiers made up 10 percent of Union troops, and 19,000 served in the Navy.
"Republicans understood that they needed blacks to be agents of change for the process," said James Oakes, author of "Freedom National: The Destruction of Slavery". "The North couldn't win the war without black soldiers."
Those soldiers, and the proclamation, became an enduring symbol of freedom.
But on the 150th anniversary of the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation, a historical document that symbolizes the beginnings of freedom for individuals once deemed property, historians say myths persist about what the policy did, and did not, do.
"Slavery didn't die on Jan. 1, 1863, but it was the death knell that slavery would die if the Union won the Civil War," said Eric Foner, author of "The Fiery Trial: Abraham Lincoln and American Slavery".

- Very Good Handguards! Review by Mike
Overall Satisfaction
Also, their customer service is second to none. They actually called me to tell me that they were out of stock on the color I ordered and asked if I'd like to wait or choose another color. I recommend the guards and the company. You won't be disappointed. (Posted on 1/10/12) - excellent Review by dave mac

dave mac (Posted on 1/2/12) - Gas Gas 250 6 days Review by gasgasman
Overall Satisfaction
The guards are well made and you can feel the quality of them. Much thicker than my previous guards.
I had to do some major bending to fit my Flexx bars. No really a concern.
I quit using the guards with the bend on the outer side of the guards. I found that the force of an impact would rotate the guards.
With the G2, the force is transmitted in a horizontal path to the mounting bolt. (Posted on 12/25/11) - KLR650 Review by Charkes

Vanilla 1.0.3 is a product of Lussumo. More Information: Documentation, Community Support.
Posted By: JoinerWelcome to the middle-part of the 20th century
Posted By: JSHarrisThanks, I thought this might be the case. If planning a new build then, it might well pay to go for a 1 1/2 storey design in terms of roof and roof truss design but not build the upper rooms.A word of caution; I planned to do that last time and nearly came a cropper over the roof windows as the Building Regs changed. I would put the planning in as a floored loft area or something similar then you may just need building control and not planning.

Gforth is a fast and portable implementation of the ANS Forth language. It works nicely with the Emacs editor, offers some nice features such as input completion and history and a powerful locals facility, and it even has (the beginnings of) a manual. Gforth employs traditional implementation techniques: its inner innerpreter is indirect or direct threaded. Gforth is distributed under the GNU General Public license (see COPYING). Gforth runs under Unix and DOS and should not be hard to port to other systems supported by GCC. This version has been tested successfully on the following platforms: i486-unknown-linuxaout, alpha-dec-osf3.2, mips-dec-ultrix4.3, sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3_U1. Read INSTALL for installation instructions. Mail email@example.com if you have problems. To start the system, just say `gforth' (after installing it). You can find new versions of Gforth at prep.ai.mit.edu and its mirrors or at http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/gforth/ or ftp://ftp.complang.tuwien.ac.at/pub/forth/gforth/ The latter site contains binary distributions of Gforth for some popular platforms. If you want to work on Gforth, mail me. Tasks to be done can be found in ToDo; but if you would like to do something not mentioned there, it's ok, too. In any case, we would like to hear what you are doing. The most important tasks IMO are the missing ANS Forth words, the documentation and the foreign language interface for C. On popular request, here are the meanings of unusual file extensions: *.fs Forth stream source file *.fi Forth image files *.fb Forth blocks file *.i C include files *.ds documenation source *TAGS etags files A number of Forth source files are included in this package that are not necessary for building Gforth. Not all of them are mentioned in the rest of the documentation, so here's a short overview: Add-ons: code.fs random.fs more.fs ansi.fs colorize.fs Utilities: etags.fs glosgen.fs filedump.fs Games: tt.fs sokoban.fs Test programs: tester.fs coretest.fs checkans.fs wordsets.fs Benchmarks: bubble.fs siev.fs matrix.fs fib.fs sieve.fs ANS Forth implementations of Gforth extensions: compat/*.fs other.fs - anton firstname.lastname@example.com http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/anton/home.html

"This is my second time of buying them"
By Bear the Poolboy
from Key West, FL
I got my first pair over a year ago. I wear them every night year round. Got two pair this time, I don't want to take a chance of not finding them.

Changed for better and worse
By Jint
from Rochester, NY
The original material was better, as it was softer, fluffier, but the new material is better, as it lasts longer. Even though this is a bed sock, the sole should be a bit tougher so that it will last longer. If you use them daily, they last about a month and then toes and sole start to thin out.
warm but do not fit snuggly
By greg
from bethesda maryland
it needs to be designed more form fitting like it looks in the picture in the magazine. Had I known it was this loose fitting I would not have purchased it
Great but large!
By laurdel
from Castle Rock, CO
I use the socks to keep my feet warm at night. They are so soft. I love them but wish I had ordered the XS size.
Very soft, but a bit narrow, don't last
Great soft socks for neuritis pain of feet, but they do not last too well - I wonder if it is possible to strengthen the sole part to make them stronger.
warm, cozy and my husband loves them.
By snowbunny
from Lincoln Nebraska
help too warm feet in bed, but because they are angora they don't last as long as regular socks. Still worth the money.
Really works!
By Steve
from Richmond, VA
Really does keep feet warm in bed on cold nights.
Work as claimed
By virgoLady
from Vancouver,Canada
I wear it at night as I always have cold feet. It feels good and comfortable because it is not too tight yet it warms my feet.
Confusing sizing
By Senora
from Greeley, CO
Seems warm; just a problem with size
Goofy Sizing
By v
from d
The socks run very big in size are a goofy in shape. I will be returning this item.

Familiar faces taking over positions for city of Troup
Familiar faces will take over positions in the city of Troup.
City Clerk Buffie Deason was hired as the new city secretary, and Police Chief Pat Hendrix was tapped as the new assistant city administrator during Tuesday's city council meeting. Compensation for Hendrix, while he served as interim city administrator, also was approved.
Gene Cottle, who officially started as city administrator on Feb. 1, said there were multiple applications for the city secretary position, one of which was withdrawn.
But Ms. Deason has done clerk work for about six years and was "kind of a natural replacement" for Cheryl Jimerson, who resigned as city secretary in December to work in Henderson.
Cottle said the city is eliminating the clerk position, and Ms. Deason essentially will do both jobs, which includes elections, bookkeeping and maintaining ordinances.
"It's just her experience and just her knowledge of what she's doing already and her work ethic," he said of why she was a finalist for the position.
He said Hendrix was chosen to serve as assistant city administrator so someone would be available in his absence.
Cottle said he serves as chairman of the Smith County 911 Communications District and is occasionally out of town. Therefore, he said naming Hendrix to the position will provide a definite line of authority.
"I'm pleased with that, and it just makes sense to me," he said. "He did a very good job in the interim."
Hendrix will receive his chief salary as well as compensation for the time he officially served as interim.

Though it's been a few months since the Florida Panthers clinched the division and earned their first postseason slot in 12 years, the squad will surely be looking to continue that momentum throughout the 48-game season re-configured by the NHL to salvage the four months remaining for the 2012-13 campaign. The Panthers' slate is set to begin Jan. 19, when they'll take on the visiting Hurricanes of Carolina at the BB&T Center, while the month also will include home contests versus the Ottawa Senators (Jan. 24), Philadelphia Flyers (Jan. 26), and Winnipeg Jets (Jan. 31). That's just for starters, though, so browse the 2013 Florida Panthers schedule for your pick of upcoming games.
A diverse mix of teams will take the ice in Fort Lauderdale over the next four months, so don't delay in booking your 2013 Florida Panthers tickets for seats to a number of highly anticipated matchups. If you've been anxiously waiting that rematch with the New Jersey Devils, you'll finally get it in March, once in the Garden State on the 23rd and then at home on the 30th, before one more road showdown on April 20. Prior to the regular-season finale at Tampa Bay on April 27, the Panthers will host the New York Rangers (April 23) and Toronto Maple Leafs (April 25) in the final home games before the start of the postseason.
