Education part of the investment | Letters
February 1, 2013 · Updated 3:10 PM
It's a wide-held belief among real estate agents that you can't just sell a prospective family on the house. You must also sell them good schools and a safe community. "How are the schools?" is one of the first questions we hear in selling real estate.
Our schools right now are easy to sell. A quick tour of our high school is enough to convince any family that this is a good place to call home. It's fun to brag about our music and arts programs that start in kindergarten and culminate with award-winning choirs and bands in high school.
Thanks to our local school levy, we have a wide variety of opportunities for students. We should not put that at risk.
Schools make a big difference in how others view our community.
Funding schools is a good investment, helping improve business, increase property values and maintain a safe and enjoyable quality of life.
The Navy plans to add four new P-8 squadrons in the next few years, growing by 500 jobs. There are proposals currently being studied that might double that number.
In addition, about 1,000 students come and go from our schools every year. About two-thirds of those are Navy families being reassigned.
It pays to remember: whenever Navy families are assigned to NAS Whidbey, they have a choice on where they will live. We want them to choose Oak Harbor.
As a 16-year resident of Oak Harbor and parent of three very successful
children, who benefited tremendously from the education they received from kindergarten through graduation, I urge you to please vote yes for our schools.
It's the right thing to do for our kids. It's good for our Navy families and it is a very sound investment for our community — and yes, it does add value to your home investment.

Electrical Inspection Permit Fees Waived for Sandy Damages
The $46 inspection permit fee has been waived thanks to a deal with the state
Toms River officials have arranged with the state to have electrical inspection fees waived for barrier island properties damaged by Hurricane Sandy.
Salt water from flooding has compromised the electrical systems in numerous homes in the area, including the Northern Beaches and Ortley Beach, according to the township. JCP&L will pull all meters to homes in the area and residents would have had to pay a $46 inspection permit fee before power to homes could be restored, but Toms River officials have worked out a deal to have that payment waived.
Under the deal orchestrated by Mayor Tom Kelaher and Councilwoman Maria Maruca, the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs will handle the inspections, rather than township employees.
"The good news is that we won't have to charge homeowners for the inspections," Kelaher said in a statement. "The DCA will be able to seek reimbursement from [the Federal Emergency Management Agency] and try to recoup whatever costs they can, and then they will absorb the rest of the costs."
"I understand the need to replace the meters, but all of us on the governing body were opposed to having to charge our residents for this service. This was undue financial stress that I'm happy we were able to avoid," Maruca said in a statement.
Refunds will be issued to mainland residents who recently had their meters inspected as a result of Sandy damage, according to the township.
The Township Council last week waived construction permit fees through Feb. 28 for all properties damaged by Sandy. Fees already paid as of Oct. 30 will be refunded, according to the resolution.
Some residents expressed concern online that electrical permit fees had not also been waived.
Those requiring an electrical inspection must request a permit and DCA will complete the inspection. JCP&L will then set the new meter, according to the township.
To help expedite the process, Toms River's building inspection department will expanded its hours to 7:30 a.m. through 4:30 p.m. from Dec. 8 through Dec. 22. During that time, the department will be open until 6:30 p.m. on Wednesdays and will hold Saturday hours of 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Gonna go get a $46 bottle of jameson to celebrate!
9:15 am on Tuesday, December 4, 2012
What do we have to do to get a refund for a permit that has already been paid for?

thanks for doing that maria...my question then would be if there was a charge could the red cross have paid it for the residents?
Walt Murren
3:51 pm on Tuesday, December 4, 2012
My Ocean Beach cottage had only 1/2to 3/4 inch of water get into the house. Well below the electrical outlets. Do i need to get a permit and where do i get it? I live in South Carolina.
6:20 pm on Tuesday, December 4, 2012
what about homes in toms river? do we need a permit for electrical work? need to pay for it? inspections? anyone know?
7:46 pm on Tuesday, December 4, 2012
We r still drinking over here in the dark oh yeah!! Who needs power oh yeah!!!!
Susan Plump
9:39 pm on Wednesday, December 5, 2012
OK so we wasted 45 minutes of our time this past Saturday lookingentor the building dept.because no one had the time to explain where it was, also was told they would be open this Saturday also. My time is extremely valuable because I only have so many hours of daylight to work. We have to travel form north jersey also. Someone needs inform the building department that the homeowners have experienced the most horrific thing in their live and deserve to be spoken to with courtsey and manners. We do not deserve to have our time wasted and have more stress put on us. They need to inform the public exactly what they need to do. NOT "I don't have time to answer any questions!"
So, is t?he $46.00 waived for all of Toms River or only the Barrier Island? Who will come and inspect on Green Island, and will they in turn have JCP&L turn on the electric the same day....Also, give a telephone number of who will inspect if Toms River will not inspect and how long will this take. Can it all be done the same day? Sure would like an answer to this....

DMA is a nonprofit organization and has no operating costs according to 2012 president Pastor John Kinsey.
The churches that make up DMA pay a $350 yearly fee to help aid Bryan County citizens. The organization also receives quarterly funding from the Bryan County United Way.
Kinsey has been part of DMA for six years. Kinsey said he does not know exactly how old DMA is. "It's been in Durant for years," said Kinsey.
Kinsey said the organization crosses all denominations. He said there is a variety of churches in DMA who all aim to aid the community.
DMA is a collaboration of churches assisting in community needs. Kinsey said DMA serves anyone in Bryan County although it is based in and focuses on Durant. DMA's goal is strengthen the spiritual atmosphere through assisting people with their needs.

How can Bryan County help DMA? Kinsey said there are two ways to help the organization. The first way is to donate to the organization. Kinsey said 100 percent of funds goes to the needy because there is no operation costs.
The second way is to talk to your local pastor about ways to assist the operations of the organization. To contact DMA citizens can call (256) 998-6124 or visit DMA's website www.durantministerial.com.

Re: Fighting is Magic - Dat Mango Rarity!!
From what I know about fighting game dev, people saying "I want spike!" is kind of like saying "I want a bunch of new units in Starcraft", except they all need to be balanced and work seamlessly across what's already there and not provide any unfair advantages. Even in commercial games characters are declared "Broken" and unusable for tournaments.
I'm at the last Bronycon and I overhear some kid talking about how he's all psyched for Zecora and the Wonderbolts.
I mean, c'mon.

Americans 7, Monsters 6: Monsters endure nightmarish third period in defeat
The Monsters have given up more goals than any other team in the American Hockey League. Until they get the defense fixed, there will be more disasters like the one they experienced Thursday night.
With 14:45 to play at The Q, the Monsters took a 6-3 lead over Rochester on Stefan Elliot's first goal of the season, but the Americans scored four straight times to skate off 7-6 victors and stun the 4,484 fans who paid to watch.
Both the goals scored and goals allowed were season highs for the Monsters, who fell to 12-12-1-1. They have allowed 85 goals in 26 games.
Coach Dean Chynoweth took longer than usual to walk from the locker room and address reporters. He could have used the time to chew out his team, but he will save that for later or maybe just keep the speech in his back pocket.
"I didn't say anything tonight," Chynoweth said. "Emotions will get the best of me. It's probably better not to. I'll address that tomorrow."
The Monsters outshot Rochester, 27-13, through the first two periods and Lake Erie had a 5-2 lead at the second intermission. They used excellent puck movement to build their lead and attacked the net.
Bill Thomas led the Monsters scoring with two goals and an assist. Mike Sgarbossa had a goal and two helpers, but he was on the ice for four of the Rochester goals.
"It was a meltdown," Chynoweth said. "There were missed checks. Nobody got sticks in front of the net. The goalie seemed to be fighting it a bit.
"When it was 5-2, maybe we thought we were going to run away with it. We addressed that in between periods. They mounted the comeback, then we took the penalty and compounded the error."
Seven players scored for the Americans. Mark Mancari scored the game-winner on a rebound off a pad save by 20-year-old Finnish goalie Sami Aittokallio with 3:04 to play. Continued...
Aittokallio raised his blocker and glove to his mask in disbelief. His record slipped to 7-7.
"He struggled," Chynoweth said. "You can't sugarcoat that. He's a young guy finding his way. He's had some real good games for us, and he seemed to be fighting it a bit. That's part of becoming a pro. There were deflected pucks. There were second chances we didn't get sticks on. It's not just the goalie."
The Monsters had one good chance to tie the game in the final two minutes, but Rochester goalie David Leggio kicked out his right to make the pad save.

Radnor Mummer, Fralinger pals intend to march despite warehouse fire
Members of the Fralinger String Band have been planning a spectacular fright-night theme for the 2013 News Year's Day Mummers Parade.
On Monday night that theme unfortunately became too true.
A four-alarm fire destroyed the 2nd and Wharton streets warehouse in South Philadelphia where the band stored its props and floats.
"The props have been worked on for months," said George J. Badey III, a longtime Fralinger member and St. Davids resident.
During an interview Tuesday morning, Badey, who is chairman of the Radnor Township Democratic Committee and ran an unsuccessful bid to unseat 7th District Congressman U.S. Rep. Pat Meehan, said band members had not had an opportunity to enter the building to survey the damage. He said aside from the props, the band stored about $40,000 worth of tools there.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
The elaborate costumes were not in the warehouse, said Badey, as they are in the homes of individual members.
Despite the setback, said Badey, who is a Philadelphia-based attorney and has been involved in the club since the mid-1970s, Fralinger members are in high spirits and intend to march on New Year's Day.
Badey plays the tenor saxophone. His two sons, Michael and George IV, are now in college but have been involved in the Fralinger organization.
"Absolutely…no question that we intend to march," he said, adding that the band, which was started in 1915 and is one of the city's oldest, winning eight consecutive first prizes between 2003 and 2010, plans to kick rebuilding activities into high gear. Continued...
He said the band members, whose clubhouse is at 1901 S. Third St., are more concerned with neighbors' homes that were damaged in the blaze.
The Fralinger organization, which was recently involved in a fundraiser to help victims of Hurricane Sandy, has established a website to collect donations for a rebuilding fund as well as share the proceeds with residents whose homes were damaged. The website is www.fralinger.org.
Badey, who is the chairman of www.savethemummers.com, expressed his gratitude for the outpouring of support shown from other Mummers' clubs. He noted, "364 days a year we are a big family and one day a year we compete against each other."

He's worked in public service for many of the last 50 years, serving under four different mayors. But the most important period in Nicholas Scoppetta's life might arguably be the eight years he spent as a child in foster care, primarily at a facility in the Bronx called Woody Crest.
• Scoppetta on the tension of the Knapp Commission• Scoppetta on the 2007 Deutsche Bank fire• Scoppetta on the legacy of his foster care years• Scoppetta on the Lenny Bruce case
Even in a city with hundreds of distinguished civil servants, Nicholas Scoppetta's career stands out. Among his many esteemed positions: prosecutor on the Knapp Commission investigating corrupt police officers, commissioner of the Administration for Children's Services, and then commissioner of the New York City Fire Department.
"It is always been important to me to be...to be doing something respected, valued," says Scoppetta. "I suppose it was all a craving for self-esteem that I may not have had when I was a kid in foster care."
One year after leaving the fire department, he's practicing law again and is still active in New Yorkers for Children, the non profit he established in the mid 90s that supports individuals and programs in foster care. He enjoyed his time in public service, but there is one part of his old life that he does not miss.
Scoppetta is proud of his eight years running the fire department. One of the most tragic episodes of Scoppetta's eight years with the Fire Department was the 2007 Deutsche Bank fire that killed two firefighters. There was no water to fight the fire and the empty building had not been properly inspected. There were some calls for Scoppetta to resign.
"I never thought of resigning," says Scoppetta. "One of the things you can't do, especially if you think that you are doing a good job, and apparently the mayor thought so; he didn't ask me to resign. You can't resign under fire."
His relationship with some union leaders wasn't always warm, as witnessed by the Daily News cartoon on his wall that reads, "No rush, the fire's at Commissioner Scoppetta's."
As he related to a colleague before one press conference, when the fire department issues were contentious but not tragic, Scoppetta's experience gave him some perspective.
"You know what's tough? When you stand up before 12 cameras and try and explain why a child died of malnutrition and the case worker claims he was visiting the home the week before and didn't notice that this child was malnourished. That's a tough press conference," says Scoppetta.
The story of a former foster care kid running the administration for Children's Services under Mayor Rudy Giuliani was compelling, and Scoppetta and his co workers earned much praise from child welfare experts. But he also understood that it was an agency judged publicly by its failures.
"Forty-three thousand children in foster care, something happened to one of those children, that is the story," says Scoppetta. "Nobody's writing about the 43,000 kids who are going to school and getting a better life and having somebody take care of them."
"You're not who you are, despite your background. You are who you are because of your background. It's all of a piece. And the fact that you've overcome difficulties that other people didn't have is enormously important to your development. It took me a very long time to learn that lesson," recalls Scoppetta.
Nicholas Scoppetta grew up in a Lower East Side tenement. He was sent off to foster care at age five. It was years later before he learned the reason why: his mother had been arrested and jailed.
"She had stolen a welfare check. A $21 welfare check and it almost all went to the grocer. She cashed it at a grocery store and she bought food," says Scoppetta.
Scoppetta says about a year after he was sent away, there was a surprise reunion with one of his siblings at a dentist's office. "I didn't know who he was. And he said, 'Tony, Tony! This is your brother Tony!'" recalls Scoppetta.
Scoppetta was eventually moved to a facility in the Bronx called Woody Crest, where he met up with another brother. "I see what looks like a silhouette figure back there...figure stepped forward, and it's my brother Vince. I ran, jumped in his arms, I remember crying," says Scoppetta.
Woody Crest was home until he was 13. He was then sent back to live with his family on the Lower East Side, and Scoppetta was not thrilled.
"We went from very comfortable surroundings, albeit a dorm, to a walkup tenement. There was no heat in the apartment," says Scoppetta.
Fortunately for him, he had an escape.
"School was a refuge for me, I think, from my family, from the chaos in my house," says Scoppetta.
"It absolutely changed many aspects of my life, gave me so much confidence. And really increased my self esteem enormously that I could do this," says Scoppetta.
He eventually became an assistant district attorney under then Manhattan District Attorney Frank Hogan, where he had a brief connection to that office's obscenity case against comedian Lenny Bruce.
"I was asked, 'What'd you think? I understand you just saw him.' I said, 'He's spectacular. If the test is redeeming social value, that's all he's about. Yeah, there were four-letter words in there, but every one there, there's a lesson, there's a message,'" recalls Scoppetta.
But his involvement in another investigation in the early 1970s was much more significant.Scoppetta was part of the Knapp Commission investigating police corruption. He developed a close relationship with the detective who wore a wire and testified against police officers and various officials, Robert Leuci. "There was a connection between us, too. I know people like Bob. I grew up with people like Bob on the Lower East Side," says Scoppetta.
The story became the basis for the 1981 film "Prince of the City." And though Scoppetta admires the director Sidney Lumet, there were aspects of "Prince of the City" that troubled him.
"Very often, the cops are treated much more sympathetically in that movie than the prosecutors rooting out corruption," says Scoppetta.
Scoppetta's wife Susan is a psychotherapist and they have two grown children. He says he feels blessed. It is, even by New York standards, a remarkable story filled with so many compelling chapters.
"Very little of it was planned," says Scoppetta. "It looks like it was planned: do this, do this, do this. And it's just simply not the case. A whole lot of serendipity attached to my life."

I have a new mmf 7.1 and the stock mat was pretty much a joke.
It was a thin piece of felt and I say was because it went in the trash the first day. The platter underneath is 1" thick solid acrylic but does not have a depression machined out for the record label. This does seem to hold the record firmly when the supplied clamp is used but I wonder if there is a better way or if someone has used a different/better mat with this TT ?
P.S. Anyone know what version of Project TT Music Hall got this platter from (I don't see anything similar from Pro-ject's current designs)?

text: 2005 - Kensington Palace opens its prestigious doors for Vacheron ConstantinTo mark the occasion and this unique anniversary an exceptional cocktail party will be held on May 10th in the splendid setting of Kensington Palace. 200 selected guests will be given the great opportunity to discover eighty highly representative models, retracing 250 years of top-flight watchmaking: watches from the Vacheron Constantin heritage collection, timepieces from the contemporary collection, and above all the creations specially developed for the 250th anniversary. The choice of Kensington Palace is particularly well suited to the Vacheron Constantin 250th anniversary exhibition. Both are an integral part of collective memory, imprinted on watchmaking consciousness for the Geneva-based House, and on a political level for the Palace, since Queen Victoria was born there in 1819 - a date when Vacheron Constantin was already 64 years' old! In addition, the 250th anniversary collection will be presented from May 11th to May 16th in our point of sales "Watches of Switzerland", New Bond Street. Watches of Switzerland 16 New Bond Street London W1Y9PF |

Experience with blocks can be academically beneficial for a child. Recognition of sizes and shapes is usually followed by a desire to articulate or talk about them. Grouping, adding, subtracting and even multiplying with blocks is a great way for preschoolers and kindergartners to develop math skills. Older children might use blocks to make playful, early experiments with gravity, balance and geometry.

CADDO – The Caddo Bruins are still searching for their first district win after a 27-19 loss to the visiting Wewoka Tigers on Friday night. The Bruins played a solid all-around game and kept it close until the final minutes of the contest.
The Bruins tied the game 19-19 late in the fourth quarter on a touchdown run by Corey Savoy. The Bruins had a chance to take the lead on the extra point, but a low snap botched the attempt.
With 1:39 left in the game, the Tigers set up shop on their own 27-yard line. On third down, Wewoka quarterback Bryton Washington broke free for a 70-yard touchdown run. The Tigers completed the two-point conversion to make it 27-19.
The Bruins had one more chance to tie it up with 46 seconds left on the clock. Trae Johnson intercepted a second down pass from Caddo quarterback Triston Paris to finish things up.
Despite the loss, Caddo head coach Jeremy Proctor was still pleased with his team. "I thought our overall effort was great tonight," said Proctor. "Our defense held them and stepped up with some key turnovers."
The Bruins jumped out to an early lead in the first quarter. The Bruins defense had the Tigers penned deep in their own territory after a solid punt from Savoy. A high snap made it past Washington and the Bruins recovered the ball in the end zone to make it 6-0.
The Tigers tied the game on their next possession with a 48-yard touchdown run by Washington.
The Tigers took their first lead of the game in the second quarter. Washington completed a touchdown pass to Traveion Shepherd and the Tigers got the extra point to make it 13-6 at the half.
The Bruins scored on their first possession out of the locker room on an 11-yard touchdown run by Tanner Grace. The Tigers had trouble hanging on to the ball in the second half and fumbled twice in the third quarter.
Washington scored again for the Tigers in the fourth quarter but they missed the extra point to make it 19-13. The Bruins were able to tie the game after Josh Young recovered the fourth Wewoka fumble of the second half.
The Bruins now have a 2-4 regular season record and are 0-3 in district play. Next up on the schedule for Caddo will be a trip to Wynnewood next Friday.

Random stuff this time around! First off, we have the third installment of the Doctor Whooves Assistant series, then a couple of PMV Hells. Crazyness.
1.) Doctor Whooves and Assistant [Episode 3]
2.) PMV Mini-Madness S2 E04
3.) Super Pony Time 3
SECRET BUTT FUN! Too bad #2 was so short, it was good though.
Man, #3 was definitely the best. lol, Twilight House. Yes, Halo announcer, so much win! Twilight certainly is a psycho girl. Falcon Kick!!! So many wonders in this one...yes, I just said that.
#1 lol This Series is Great... but Derpy/Ditzy's voice is amazing and Hilarious. she sounds amazingly close to Luci Christian from various anime XD
#2 pretty good and scenes fit well... but just didn't seem long enough
#3 most of the scenes fit really well... but i just didn't find it all that funny... maybe its just me XD
@Baron Umm... never? I usually only sleep for 2-5 hours.
I think Seth should give us at least four hour breaks a night; but then again there's time zones aren't there... Hm...
@Baron Nonsense, I need pony every waking hour of my life!
#3 0:00 I made a reference... 2:40 BOMBEDRUMBUM!!! ITS HAMMER TIME
Man these Doctor and Ditzy pieces have really grown on me. I was smiling through that entire thing.
#2 and #3 both had some good jokes, too. Derpy derping made me laugh.
These Doctor and Assistant videos are amazing. The art of Radio Drama's are not dead!
Yay! More BaldDumboRat! I'm begging to like this series even more as I listen to each part!
"Doctor! Doctor! Help! Help!"
"A MANTICORE! Brilliant!"
"Don't be excited about it, it's GOT ME!!"
rofl! best part of the first vid IMO
I love the Doctor Whooves and Assistant series so much /)^3^(\
Ah #2 Had to be finished with a King Harkinian Laugh didn't it..
I don't even have the words to describe how much I adore the 3rd video... That is one of the best PMV's I've seen in a long time @.@
I know right, if there isn't then It's just..bland.
Am I the only one who is sick of static being used as a transition? The one used for almost all pony videos is very loud and piercing. Back in AMV Hell and Robot Chicken, it didn't get too annoying, but here, it sticks out. I actually liked the #3 because it uses the Gilligan Cut scene switcher.
Yay! more Doctor Whooves and Ditzy! These are freakin amazing. If DOctor Whooves ever gets a speaking role in the show, it will never sound right unless its this guy.
I like that they used Ditzy instead of Derpy, and damn is that some splendid voice acting! I agree with poster about a dozen up, Radio Drama hasn't died! Ponies will keep anything alive!
#2 Was pretty good
but #3 was awesome! Less music, more normal sound bites would've been better though.
LOL, the Doctor being amazed at picking things up with his hooves.
#3 I was gonna clean my room, until I got high...

I am enamored of brown shoes with navy suits, even tobacco suede bluchers like the pair on the father of the graduate in the illustration. I used to think wearing bluchers with suits was a sartorial sin, but I have grown out of that one. At least for less formal occasions.
My attraction to the combination of brown shoes and blue suits began after I realized that navy and black look bad next to each other. I gave away a couple of black and blue neckties that had never worked for me and soon after began asking myself why I was wearing black shoes with navy suits. So, before six o'clock, I've stopped. To paraphrase Dorothy, I don't think we're in London any more.
Currently, in the suede category, I like very dark brown best with navy flannel. And I've been seen wearing tobacco suede as well as fox if I'm feeling daringly Neapolitan.
But I'd never wear black shoes with white flannels as the young man is doing and you shouldn't either.

Don't Step On My Brown Suede Shoes

I have to agree with Will on this one. Blue suits and black shoes are horrible and so many people do it. One of the reasons I have stopped buying blue suits is that I do not yet have the proper shoe to wear. That is why I have been building my gray suit wardrobe.
One exeption to the black/blue rule was observed by me this past Summer at Paul Stuart in NYC. It was the very day of the steam pipe explosion near Grand Central. A young man perhaps in his late 20s or early 30s was at Paul Stuart looking at neckties. As I passed him, I looked at his suit quickly so as not to look like I was staring. He was wearing a navy pinstripe suit, blue check shirt with large checks, and a navy tie with yellow and red figures. The shoes were a black Gucci slip on with the silver metal across the toe. I do not wear Gucci shoes nor do I care for the ostentation on the shoe, but I have to say this worked perfectly on this young man because the silver in the metal picked up the pinstrip in the suit and gave the young fellow almost a casual carefree look but still keeping him looking good. I have to say that look is the only exception I have ever come across to the balck shoe/navy suit combo.
I do have a pair of chocolate brown suede shoes (loafer) that I bought at Crockett & Jones this past Summer so maybe I'll pair them with the only navy suit which hangs in my closet mostly unworn.

What shades of brown would you consider acceptable with navy suits? Mocha certainly seems acceptable to me, but what about something like cognac, brandy, or even burnished tan? They seem too light to me, but as I am just beginning to learn the intricacies of color, my intuition may be a bit off.
Thank you! - October 17, 2007 at 10:07:00 AM PDT

I agree with Will and John. I don't like the look of black shoes with navy suits. I mostly buy charcoal suits. I do have a couple of navy suits in a Savile Row chalk stripe that I wear on occasion, but that's about it. Plain navy suits leave me cold.
I was raised (in London) to consider brown shoes with navy suits a major sartorial faux pas, and not just in town. Has anyone else encountered this bias? I wonder where it originates.
Tobacco suede (for tassel loafers, chukkas, and brogues) is my absolute favourite. It's a wonderful look. - October 17, 2007 at 10:19:00 AM PDT

Burgundy shoes, and their red-toned relations, are considered members of the brown shoe family.
The Royal Yacht Club specifies brown shoes with white flannels. So should we all.
I wear all shades of brown with navy, though the very light versions should be reserved for sunny weather in my opinion. - October 17, 2007 at 10:52:00 AM PDT

This seems to be a debate for the ages! I've read articles in old Apparel Arts magazines about the subject, and have a somewhat mixed perspective, personally.
I agree that brown shoes have an extra panache with navy that black just cannot deliver. It seems richer, more elegant, more refined. Not to mention, quality brown shoes never quite look the same, and the colors and shades of the shoe (to me anyways) always seem to be evolving. However, this is not to say that black shoes are without merit.
Black shoes are, always have been, and always will be de rigueur with navy suitings. This is because they require no effort -- what I call being a "no-brainer". What they lack in style, they make up for in function and formality.
In general, I, like many of you, prefer brown with my navy. However, I am in my third year of law school, and in court (especially in South Carolina, and the 4th federal circuit, where I reside) the courts tend to have a very traditional, very formal expectation of dressing. When I appear in court, or before a judge, or at any formal trial, I always wear black oxfords. It's just safer.
Maybe that's the best word for black with navy -- safe. It may not be the most stylish option, but without question, it maintains an easy, functional formality. - October 17, 2007 at 3:45:00 PM PDT

In my opinion dark brown shoes, with the exception of situations requiring dinner jacket or tail coats, can excellently substitute for black shoes , even after six and with gray suits. In all the other occasions, brown shoes in different tonalities and leathers ,are always the right choice.

I am disappointed on a daily basis with this modern idea that one should wear brown shoes with a dark suit.. and that a hairbrush or comb is non existent in a Gentleman's grooming regime nowadays.. oh.. don't get me started!!

I have a pair of C&J Peals that were that were the orange-ish brown that BB likes... I had them re-dyed a very very dark cognac, then I acetoned selectively to get a bit of burnish. They are dark enough to be "safe", yet have some character.

I don't care for the ABC giants either. Colossor however has that classic 80's MOTU feel. He MUST be made.
I also feel that Colossor is iconic. I want him more than any other giant. I am also a completist but the last thing I want are the ABC giants.
I don't care for the ABC giants either. Colossor however has that classic 80's MOTU feel. He MUST be made.
This would be a win-win situation for Mattel, as they could cheaply utilize the giant buck yet again since with the release of Procrustus, Colossor is 90% done. The only new tooling he would need are new feet, hands, and head. Maybe forearms, since he didn't have any wrist cuffs in Filmation, but I'm not too picky about that. And for the back where Procrustus' extra two arms normally would be, they could just fill in those holes with a rocky surface to match the rest of his back.
So easy Mattel! It would be stupid not to do this!
Just got Megator, Procrustus & Granamyr for xmas...my first giants. Would gladly welcome him. I see no problem with him. He is a giant demon looking rock guy. Cool in my book. But I'm one of those weirdos who wants it all, even if I hate them & whine about them, they are still MOTU & I love them for that reason.
+1 for Colossor's inclusion.
Weekly if I were in that episode, I would have said...- 'The Peril of Peekablue'
Peekablue- Oh no! They're here!
Adora- Who?
Me- Lady, it ain't the half price muffin man. Who you think it is?
One of my favorite early episodes! Colossor is much bigger than the other giants imo, but I'd love to get him in the "giant scale" we got going with Tytus, Megator, and Procrustus. Might as well get use outta those parts...
I would support Colossor in MOTUC, in scale with the Tytus and Megator.
Three most wanted in MOTUC: Eldor - Scorpia - Horde Troopers
No Strobos!!! Expect low blows!!!

A thousand miles of ATV trails to be linked this summer
In fact, Harry Brown, president of the North Country Off Highway Recreational Vehicle Coalition, said his group has set June 15 as the official opening date in Coleman State Park in Stewartstown, a major hub in the network.
New Hampshire's Bureau of Trails and 15 recreational-vehicle clubs in the northernmost section of the state have been part of the effort.
Increased commerce is a big part of the goal of providing an ATV system that will allow long-distance riders to avoid having to get off the trail and haul their machines by trailer before rejoining the trail.
With the expected increase in riders traveling through northern New Hampshire, Brown said the new network should give a shot in the arm to existing small businesses such as restaurants, motels, gift shops, and small-engine repair services, and encourage new business start-ups.
Coalition members believe joining the trails will help bring riders from across the Northeast to 7,500-acre Jericho Mountain State Park in Berlin, as well as to county commerce centers such as downtown Colebrook, where Route 26 leads to eastern points such as Coleman State Park, The Balsams area and Errol.
The trails bureau has been providing funds for portions of the effort, such as last year's $63,000 grant that built interconnecting all-terrain-vehicle trails through the Great North Woods connecting Gorham, Pittsburg and Colebrook. That money resulted specifically in the portion that runs from Coleman State Park to the North Gate of the Balsams, and from Kelsey Notch, over Dixville Peaks to Greenough Pond Road.
The total cost of that effort was estimated at some $86,000.

Since Opium has been my only fragrance for several years I decided to try Belle d'Opium for a change. A little different but I'm sure I'll get to love it as much as Opium.

Lovely light spicy oriental fragrence that is perfect for office wear. Soft but with that hint of excitement. I work in a mens prison so I want a perfume that is soft, but not to enticing that I get a males attention.

Reminds me of White Linen. Does not last long. Smells nice, but nothing unique. Being an older woman, I want a signature scent that is complicated with nuances; an oriental/woody scent. I gave this to my sixteen year old daughter. It smells nice on her and it smells sharper when mixed with her chemistry.

Written by StyleMaven
This is such a beauty. It is not called "belle" for nothing because beautiful it is. Amber, woods, spices, warm, sweetish tobacco notes, patchouli. It is a prettier and less "in your face" Opium. The sillage is nice but you will have to re-spray after about 4 hours but this is so stunning it is worth the shorter longevity. It is not Opium light, it is Opium 'better." Your website would let me do the bottle rating but I give this 5 stars for sure.

Written by "Belle" d'Opium by Yves St Laurent
I love this fragrance. It's a change for me after wearing "Opium" for several years, which I still wear. I like them both. Both "Belle" and "Opium", are both subtle scents, romantic, with a subtle smell, not overbearing, just right. I love, love them both. I will continue to wear "Belle" and "Opium". I have changed from many other designers that I used to wear for years. Yves Saint Laurent's fragrances are very romantic.

Assault By Cupcake
A cupcake fight hardly sounds like a fight at all. But for a woman in Chicago's Southwest Side, a cupcake fight has resulted in domestic battery charges!On Saturday night, authorities received a call from a man claiming his wife was throwing cupcakes at him. There was no denying his accusations were true since authorities found the man covered in frosting and crumbs when they arrived and the wife was verbally hostile with the officers.
So what happens when you throw cupcakes at someone who decides to call the cops? In this case the woman was mandated to wear an electronic monitoring device, placed on a $10,000 bond and charged with domestic battery.
Now, I take domestic abuse very seriously but something about being assaulted by cupcakes makes me giggle. That being said, I do hope nobody ever gets fatally injured with a cupcake fight.
What do you think of the cupcake-assault?
