The Samsung LED Business Monitor SA450 has been designed to help boost work efficiency, delivering a tailored experience with its choice of viewer settings. The height-adjustable stand ensures that the screen can always be set at the optimal eye level, which enhances the visual experience while also helping maintain the viewer's body posture. Other features include the tilt and pivot capabilities, which not only increase comfort levels but also introduce new ways of working. The SA450 Monitor can rotate 90 degrees, allowing for more appropriate view depending on the work. So, now you can take convenience and efficiency to amazing heights with the Samsung LED Business Monitor SA450.
Samsung's unique and stylish Adaptor Neck Stand is perfect for any modern workplace.

The Samsung LED Business Monitor SA450 has been designed to enhance work conditions and efficiency. Featuring Front Tactile Buttons, the SA450 minimizes costly errors found with high usage, which is a common problem with touch type button monitors. Furthermore, with its smarter design, users can still access these buttons when wall mounted, which can be an issue when monitors feature side panel buttons. Adding to the visual experience, the SA450 features a Narrow Matt Bezel. This reduces distraction around display area and delivers an experience that is immersive and engaging.
The Samsung LED Business monitor SA450 feature the Magic Angle Vertical to deliver a picture-perfect screen even when not viewed from directly in front.

So, when watching with Magic Angle Vertical, which is even also specialized for LED Business monitor, it feels like you're always standing right in front of the screen… even if you aren't.
Experience amazing new levels of color, brilliance and picture quality through the very latest in Mega Dynamic Contrast Ratio. The Samsung LED Business monitor SA450 delivers images so real-to-life that it will transform your whole viewing experience. Packed with breathtaking 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio, the SA450 ensures that blacks are at their absolute darkest and (with pristine whites) colors are at their brightest. You will immediately notice the crystal clear picture and its unbelievable intensity. It is like an explosion of colors and leaves other screens seeming dull in comparison.

Best helmet I've ever had
I bought the best helmet I've ever had. It was delivered fast to me. I recommend by with helmet city.Reviewer: Suzanne (Cape Coral, Florida) 1.31.2012
Awesome sauce
My Modular Shoei Multitec Helmet rocks. I bought the upgrade gold tint uva/uvb facial shield and it really cuts the glare from the hot, bright SW Florida Sun. I don't need to wear sunglasses if I don't want to and the tint doesn't interfere with night vision. I also love the fact that I can easily lift up my face guard to speak with my partner at a stop light and then lower it immediately to take off quickly & leave him in the dust when the light changes. Poor guy doesn't have a Modular Shoei Helmet. My helmet is worth every penny I paid for it because I know I'm as protected as I can be. Keeps my head cool in summer and warm in winter. Dig the Matte Black w/ gold shield especially since I'm a Steeler's fan.Reviewer: Johnny Gilbreath (Broken Bow, Ok.) 1.31.2012
Great helmet
My first bull helmet. I really think it is quiet. An absolute must for winter riding.

Ohio State Buckeyes offensive coordinator Tom Herman keeps his cool in the booth (OSU Notebook)
COLUMBUS — Urban Meyer's heart said one thing.
The head of Ohio State's offensive coordinator said another.
For those scoring at home, Tom Herman is officially on the scoreboard.
After the Buckeyes scored a touchdown with three seconds to go on Saturday, they needed a two-point conversion to tie the game and potentially force overtime.
Meyer went in great detail after the game how he wanted to run the ball and that OSU's offensive line and bullish running back Carlos Hyde were in his ear to power the ball into the end zone for the two-point conversion.
Meyer said he listened to Herman — and Herman on Monday revealed why.
"The sterility of the press box allows you not to get caught up in the emotion and not how big the moment is," said Herman, who calls the game from the press box, not the sideline.
"'Guys, it's right here. We've been practicing this for three weeks,'" Herman said of his message to the sideline when the conversion play was at hand. "'It's right here in front of me. It's our two-point play. I don't care if the O-line wants to run it. I don't care if Carlos Hyde wants to run it. This is what we've agree upon as a staff on Thursday for the last five weeks.'"
Herman said he admires coordinators who call plays from the sidelines, because that is where the emotion is. He said being away from that makes it easier to dissect what needs to happen to be successful.
When asked what happens when situations arise like that of Saturday, when Meyer wanted a run play and Herman suggested the pass play the Buckeyes had rehearsed, Herman paused. Continued...
"I think you pick your battles as a coordinator," he said with a chuckle. "Had I been fighting for everything I've wanted for nine weeks, that one might not have gotten approved."
Injury report
Receiver Corey "Philly" Brown (head) and linebacker Josh Perry (leg) seem to be on track to play this weekend at Penn State.
Defensive back Devan Bogard, however, tore an ACL against Purdue and is done for the season.
"Josh Perry, the MRI came back clean. He's ready to go," Meyer said. "Corey Brown dinged a little bit. He should be ready to go. They're still evaluation, but everybody tells me he's fine."
Etienne Sabino (broken leg) is doubtful, so Meyer said converted fullback Zach Boren will remain on defense this week.
Meyer was particularly disappointed with the season-ending injury of Bogard.
"If we could go out and recruit a hundred Bogards, life would be pretty good around here," Meyer said.
The injury issue, combined with transfers and freshmen who are not ready to contribute, have put Ohio State in a bind numbers-wise.
He said the team is working with "59 or 60" scholarship players right now who are ready to play. He voiced his displeasure/concern with a number of unnamed players who haven't stepped up after injuries and transfers shortened the active roster. Continued...
He pointed out Chase Farris (Elyria), Taylor Decker, Verlon Reed and Chris Fields as four who have stepped up — unlike some others.
"My gosh, what are you waiting for?" Meyer said. "Let's go, man. You come to Ohio State to go play. You don't come to watch your team in a game like that and sing the fight song afterwards. You go to be a part of it."
Champions Club
While there were seven defensive players named to the weekly Champions Club for their efforts in the Purdue game, no offensive players received such a grade.
Player of the game was Ryan Shazier, with other champion efforts on defense belonging to Travis Howard, John Simon, Christian Bryant, Bradley Roby, Johnathan Hankins and Nathan Williams.
Freshman David Perkins was named the special teams player of the week. Others with champion efforts on special teams were Taylor Rice and Hankins.

Kenneth Campbell Lochhead
Canadian, 1926–2006
Sky Location, from the L Series, 1967
acrylic on canvas
346 x 206 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Gift of Gustavo and Gloria da Roza
Painting, Canadian Modern (1910-1979)
Kenneth Lochhead was associated with a group of painters, known as the Regina Five, who brought international attention to Saskatchewan in the 1960s. Sky Location exemplifies what is called colour field painting, or post-painterly abstraction, which was championed especially by the influential American art critic Clement Greenberg. Consisting of raw, unsized, canvas stained in divisions of saturated colour, the monumental painting draws attention to the picture plane itself rather than forms within it. The visual effect is a poetic materialism, in which the physical conditions of painting itself are made elegantly clear. This painting was gifted to the WAG by Gustavo da Roza, the architect responsible for designing the WAG building in 1969, and his wife Gloria.

The bit of the show I was really dreading was carrying everything in to our stand but it was very organised and with a porter's help, only took the 3 of us a few trips! Of course it decided to start raining the minute we started to unload!
So stand F20A is my home for the next 4 days - think I'll try and take my stand label home with me as a little memento!
The card hall is in the basement and was surprisingly empty. I was worried that a lot the stands would be complete and that arriving on the Saturday we would be late setting up - but by the time we left we still had NO neighbours at all!
So, here it is - stand complete!

Managing our oceans - address to the New Zealand Marine Sciences Society conference Waikato University, Hamilton
Hon Pete HodgsonMinister of Fisheries
Thank you for the opportunity to open this conference.
It's always a pleasure to be talking to scientists. It's particularly good to be talking to marine scientists, given my interests as a minister in both science and fisheries. The portfolios intersect in interesting ways. We have much to learn about our oceans and fisheries, and science is a key to managing both.
I'm not a scientist myself, but as a former vet I had a scientific education. I taught high school physics for a while and I'm a failed amateur marine researcher. I tried to grow crayfish from spawn, in a tank in the basement of my house. They didn't make it past stage four of their life cycle.
I don't feel too bad about that, because to my knowledge nobody else has succeeded either. Maybe one of you, or your students or successors, will crack it one day and we'll have a valuable new aquaculture industry.
I said I'm happy to be in front of scientists and that's because you're committed to the advancement of knowledge and ideas, and I'm part of a Government that shares that enthusiasm. Science and innovation are central to this Government's ambitions for both the economy and the environment.
We put our money where our mouth is in this year's Budget, when we increased the total public investment in research, science and technology this year by almost $44 million. That's one of the largest single increases in a decade.
Total Government expenditure is up by less than 5 percent, but R&D expenditure is up by more than 10 percent. As Science Minister I'm proud of that. Investing in R&D is what smart economies do.
This Budget also included funding for the Government's biodiversity package. That includes an extra $40 million over the next five years on research and management programmes for marine biodiversity and biosecurity.
The Government's investment in marine research through the Public Good Science Fund increased about 50% from 1995/96 to 1998/99. This was significantly more than the 12% increase of the Public Good Science Fund over that period.
During that same period research funded by the Ministry of Fisheries and the fishing industry levy fell by more than 20%, to $13.2 million. But if you can bear one more bit of good news, for 2000-20001 we're proposing to increase the research spend in this area again to a shade over $19 million.
One more point about the current fisheries research effort. As some of you will know, I've shelved proposals for the direct purchase of research by the fishing industry for at least a year. I believe we need to do some hard thinking before we go down that road.
There are real questions about whether industry-purchased research gets the incentives right, about whether we can design standards and specifications robust enough to deal with potential conflicts of interest. Maybe the next step in some fisheries is direct purchasing of research. I'm not ruling that in or out. I'm being cautious. I'm challenging the industry to persuade me that its management structures are mature enough to handle that step.
Enough about funding. I note that your conference theme is about integrated approaches to sustainable management of coastal and estuarine environments. That's useful, because the Government is doing some hard thinking about integrated management of the marine environment as well.
From a look at our current legislation covering the marine environment you might think there is no interaction between the land and the sea. We have extensive policies in this country for managing our land, but nothing comparable for our oceans.
We govern this vast resource in the face of competition between all its users - commercial fishers, recreational fishers, tourism operators, shippers, miners, rubbish dumpers and land uses that cause sedimentary run-off or pollution.
But there's no over-arching policy framework guiding a lot of the decisions we have to make when competition becomes conflict. A lot of those decisions are ad hoc, contradictory and inefficient.
On top of that, even though we're starting to understand how little we know about oceans, we don't have a policy framework that helps us set priorities for what we need to learn. Nor do we have any agreed principles for judging whether we are making the most of what we've got.
The recent collision between the Fisheries Act and the Resource Management Act over aquaculture may be the first of many. We want public policy to stay ahead of the game. We need some sort of framework.
We're setting out to create that framework and we're calling it an Oceans Policy.
Part of the challenge of the exercise will be to communicate to New Zealanders at large what we're on about. We're islanders, as a nation, and our relationship with the sea is part of our identity as New Zealanders. But when we mention oceans, most people think of vast, heaving blue acres, a long way from their place.
So we'll be trying to explain that an Oceans Policy is about things closer to home than that. It's about what's in the water when you take the kids to the beach, how many mussel farms you meet in your kayak, how many tourist charter boats you see in a marine reserve. It's about whether your daughter's hopes of a job with a seabed mining company are dashed by someone trying to protect his livelihood as a trawlerman. It's about how you have your say when somebody wants to lay a fibre-optic cable down the coast past your place, or what you have to do if you own the company.
So it's not just about fish, even though I'm the Minister of Fisheries and my senior policy adviser on the matter is somebody I've pinched from the Ministry of Fisheries. She'll be talking to you later and you'll see she's got her eye on the big picture, as I do.
The Prime Minister asked me to lead this process, I think, because I'm a minister of many hats. I have what I can best describe as a web of portfolios, whose issues intersect all the time. I need to be able to see the connections and the possibilities for coordination of effort. That's the kind of approach the Oceans Policy is going to need.
The policy will have to reflect all the key goals this Government has set itself. One of those is to grow an inclusive, innovative economy for the benefit of all New Zealanders. Another is to protect and enhance the environment. So we must manage the ocean to meet environmental concerns, but also to meet economic needs. We have to take care of transport, recreational, social, spiritual and Maori customary needs and values as well.
Total management of the marine environment and all its ecosystems is not possible, obviously. We're setting out to try to define and control the impact of human activity on that environment.
Doing that in ideal fashion would require considerable and diverse information to guide decision-makers. But the size and complexity of the marine environment often make it difficult to get that information.
We don't really know much - compared to what there is to learn - about the life in our oceans. We know we have more than 8,000 marine species, but we're sure there are a great many more.
We have limited information about the impacts of land use on oceans.
We have limited information about the relationship between oceans and climate change - one of the other major policy issues I'm involved with.
We have limited but targeted information available about fish stocks. We know even less about the relationships between target fisheries and associated and dependent species.
We don't know enough about the relationship between fisheries and the aquatic environment generally.
All up, I reckon our knowledge of the marine ecosystem is about as good as our knowledge of the terrestrial ecosystem was 100 or 120 years ago.
We don't need to know everything, of course. And we can't know a whole lot more instantly, no matter what we spend on research.
We have to be smart about the way we go at these information gaps. We can't pursue more information just for the sake of having it. The resource is too big and our funding is too limited. So one of the things our Oceans policy should help us do is aim our effort where it's most needed.
We need to target our research resources for the benefit of New Zealand. And we need to maximise the use we make of what we have.
Currently we have no framework to determine priorities for research decisions and management of information by government agencies. Problems have been identified with aligning operational research with R&D. We need to avoid knowledge gaps and duplication of effort.
We need clear priorities, to manage conflict and tensions between competing research providers. The absence of such priorities is making it difficult to evaluate the total research effort and ensure the best outcome for Government's investment.
We're at the beginning of the policy process, but our vision for oceans management is something like this:
We have no pre-set ideas about any government structures or legislation we might need. We're still thinking hard about the nature of the problem.
Good process will be essential to getting this together. I want the process to include everyone with an interest in the resource.
It has to be an across-government initiative. There are fourteen agencies with interests in oceans management. Local government also has a significant decision-making role and Maori have legal management rights in relation to aspects of the marine environment. All of those must contribute effectively if we're going to get a policy developed that's robust and effective.
We'll be setting up a ministerial advisory committee of independent people appointed by Cabinet to support the group of ministers I'm chairing. We'll be looking for people with the capacity to create debate and consensus within the community.
We'll be consulting extensively with rights holders, sector groups, local government and the public. You, the marine science community, will naturally have a useful contribution to make. We will need your expertise and your input.
I hope we can focus on what New Zealanders want for the future from oceans management, rather than on documenting the problems people have with the current regime. We need to define our goals for the marine environment and the best way to achieve them.
I don't know what we are going to come up with and I don't think anybody else does either. We'll learn by doing. We have to, or we risk the significant deterioration of one of this nation's greatest resources.
Thank you. Contact: Graeme Speden, press secretary

Ted Bennett walleye
Ted Bennett of South Junction, Man., released this 29-inch walleye last week on the Rainy River while fishing with Putt Kern of Baudette, Minn. They released 15 walleyes longer than 24 inches, including two 29-inch fish, writes Kern, who submitted the photo.May 19, 2013

Jake Starcevic walleye
Jake Starcevic, 6, of Larimore, N.D., caught and kept this 26-inch walleye this past winter while fishing with his dad, Alex, and younger brother Luke, 4, in the family's permanent fish house on Devils Lake. "A priceless moment for the three of us to have together," Alex Starcevic writes. "I actually lost what I believe is the same fish twice at the bottom of my hole before Jake hooked him and caught him about 30 seconds later! It was the only the second fish we marked that night and it actually hit my bare buckshot (rattle spoon) the second time I hooked it. I was going to help Jake try to play him, but figured that I already screwed it up twice, so he can have his shot … he sure made it count! Since our family rule is that you decide what to do with your fish, Jake went back and forth between releasing it and keeping it, but ultimately talked me into mounting it for him. How could I say no?"April 14, 2013
Justin and Hunter Steward pike
Jessica Steward of Northwood, N.D., shared this photo of a big northern pike her husband, Justin, and son, Hunter, 9, landed Feb. 9 on one of the English Coulee diversion ponds west of Thompson, N.D.

"It will in the next year become part of our house décor as our first mounted fish," she writes. They caught the fish on a tip-up set near their fish house. "I believe it's a wonderful story, as many have been shocked that such a fish has come out of the English Coulee," she said.February 12, 2013

"She has hunted deer with the family in previous years, but this was her first year afield with a rifle. She is still smiling in the picture after learning the art of field-dressing her buck.

This box is far from finished. Still have a lot to do as you can see. The look kinda came to me randomly. but with the lack of resources, I was unable to execute it, like it was in my head. The main thing was the posterized look.
The background as simple as it is, to me, suits it... But It bothers me at the same time. I just don't know why. Now the I must say I love the posterized effect on the "Gears of War 3" logo, and how it matches with Marcus. I DO plan to add more the the front, weather its more characters, or objects of some sort.
BACK: The back, as you can see, isn't really even started. The background for the back is the same radial white to gray gradient. I'm not sure weather to continue the posterized pattern on the back side, like the front has.
Tell me what you think. I'm very open to ANY ideas you have. AND ANY feedback! Thank You. Much Appreciated!

Location: Orangery
The work of Friedensreich Hundertwasser is one of Austria's most significant contributions to art history in post-war modernism. In spite of his immense popularity, which the skilled networker and ambitious artist attained early in his career, the myth of the lone genius and eccentric outsider prevails to this day. In the exhibition Hundertwasser, Japan and the Avant-Garde the Belvedere has set out to rediscover the artist's early work. A thematic approach places Hundertwasser in the context of the avant-garde movement, aiming to counter this myth and reveal new ways of looking at his art as a whole. In doing so, the exhibition explores the artist's connections with Japan in the 1950s and his significance within the international avant-garde movement. For the first time in Vienna the show is bringing together masterpieces by Hundertwasser and works by Shinkichi Tajiri, Akira Kito, Yves Klein, Lucio Fontana, Pierre Alechinsky, Constant, Corneille, Sam Francis, and Mark Tobey. Another first is that these artists are being shown with Hundertwasser from the point of view of the Far Eastern influences on their work.
A Nonconformist Pioneer of the Avant-Garde
As revealed by the many documents that were researched for this exhibition, Friedensreich Hundertwasser was an adept networker and determined artist, who achieved high prices for his work on the international art market even in the mid-1950s. At the same time he was seen as a mysterious and misunderstood outsider as his attitude toward art and life, which he wanted to see closely linked, did not conform to traditional Western ways of thinking.
Far Eastern Wisdom as a Source of Inspiration
In the 1950s many artists approached their metier in an unprecedented way by defining the relationship between artist and viewer and work and world in a new and abstract manner. Far Eastern philosophers became a vital source of inspiration – the holistic view of art at the time often looked toward process-oriented ways of thinking from China and Japan. In addition, Zen Buddhism provided a welcome stimulus for many artists in North America and Europe. Hundertwasser was able to combine this age-old Far Eastern wisdom with Europe's scientific and analytical traditions of thought to interpret these in his own way for his art. His key work The Big Way from the Belvedere's collection is a classic example of the interplay between Far Eastern philosophy and Western abstract art.
The Cult around Art and around Life
The exhibition is divided into six themes – Architecture, Garden, Japan, The Line, Journey – Way – Process, and Freedom and Abstraction. Architecture addresses Hundertwasser's plea for individual creative freedom – everybody can, should and must build –, while Garden illustrates his early interest in Japanese garden culture and the ecological awareness this awakened in him. The Line focuses on how Hundertwasser introduced the vegetative spiral, embodying the processes of nature and life in his art, and Journey – Way – Process as well as Freedom and Abstraction demonstrate how the processes of painting, living, and reflection always coincided in his work and free thinking took precedence over art's formal criteria. For the first time the exhibition is uniting works by Hundertwasser with those of his companions and colleagues, who also found inspiration for their art by studying Far Eastern philosophy.

Candidates for SC House District 11: Craig Gagnon, Lee Garrett, Bob Shirley
- Craig Gagnon
Age: 52
Years living in district/county: 27
Family: Wife: Robin; Daughters: Leah G. Crumley & Anna Gagnon
Education: Doctor of Chiropractic, Sherman College of Chiropractic, 1984
Current occupation: Chiropractor
Previous employment: Various jobs during College and High School.
Military history: None
Community Involvement: Past president of the following: Greater Abbeville Chamber of Commerce, Abbeville Youth Athletic Board, Abbeville Panther Booster Club, Abbeville Released-Time Christian Education Board & Abbeville Kiwanis Club
Elected or Appointed public offices: none
Other political/governmental experience: Chairman, Abbeville County GOP 1989-present
Why you are seeking this office and why should people vote for you?
Having lived in this District for over 27 years, I have come to know many of its citizens. I am convinced they are some of the finest, hardest-working people anywhere. They deserve the best representation possible. I will listen to their concerns, act on those concerns and be their voice in Columbia.
What are the three most important issues you would address if elected and how would you address them?
a. Jobs: Will work to promote a greater business climate in the district and state. Will start by working to reduce or eliminate the business property tax rate. Georgia and North Carolina have already done so creating an unfair advantage for them. Finding creative and innovative solutions through continuous dialogue with our existing businesses is essential to our success in attracting new jobs to our area.
b. Education: The most important part of our education system is our children. They deserve to be given the best tools they can receive to be a success in our society. Too much of our tax dollars do not reach the classroom. I will work to eliminate waste and unneeded regulation in our educational system.
c. Transparency in Government: Opening governmental records to the public is essential to its efficiency and effectiveness. Recently, the Center for Public Integrity released their study of state government accountability. South Carolina received an "F" rating. This is shameful and has to be addressed. I will work to make South Carolina government honest, open and responsible.
What specific steps will you take to make the government process and your office more open and accessible to the public?
Strengthen FOI laws. Advocate regular auditing of governmental departments. Advocate for an open, deliberative budget process between the executive and legislative branches.
- Lee Garrett
Age: 60
Years living in district/county: 21 total
Family: Wife – Donna, sons – Brian (married, engineer in Greenwood), Joshua (US Navy 9 years – Pearl Harbor, Hawaii), daughter – Emily, age 13.
Education: 6 years of post secondary education - Clemson University (Pre-medicine) 2 yrs, USC-Upstate (Business and Computer Science) 2 yrs, Spartanburg Community College 2 yrs (Electronics Engineering).
Current Occupation: Mayor – Town of Calhoun Falls SC
Previous Employment/Military history: Manager, electrical division – Renfrow Brothers Industrial Contractors, Maintenance Manager – Circor Inc., Equipment Engineer/Maintenance Mgr – Monsanto Electronic Materials Corp – all in Spartanburg, SC.
Military history: None

Elected or appointed public offices: Town of Calhoun Falls, School Board – Calhoun Falls Charter School
Any unsuccessful political campaigns: None
Other political/governmental experience: None
Why are you seeking this office and why should people vote for you?
I am seeking this office out of a desire to provide representation and leadership for my district. My knowledge of the challenge for our district to continue to be a great place to live, work, recreate, learn and raise a family compels me to offer my professional, life and spiritual experiences to the service of the people in District 11. I am confident of my willingness and, more importantly, my capability.
I have a servant approach to positions of leadership. My work ethic, commitment to service, social, technical and managerial skills, passion to stand up for the common good and composite of my life and professional experiences have prepared me for success. I grew up poor and have achieved success at most levels of the business and industrial environment. I have the people's and business' best interest at heart. I am a man of faith who believes in reaching the full potential of what God has offered for all as a life experience. I understand the separation of church and state but also the connection that leads to soundness of mind and judgement in guiding us to a healthy and civil society. I am pro business with experience that includes relocation of three manufacturing facilities to the upstate and I believe in investing in people primarily through the educational system. As mayor I have gained understanding of the business and needs of municipalities. Also, as a public official, I have a track record of enhancing commerce and economy in western Abbeville County through personal initiative.
What are the three most important issues you would address if elected and how would you address them?
First, because I believe the greatest investment of people is in people themselves I will passionately support the state's current efforts to create an educational offering to children and adults in South Carolina that gives full access to anything of value and available in any institution to anyone who desires to pursue it. I have come to understand the funding formulas for our public education system and believe there is a need for reform. Our aged approach to funding is a primary source of our inability to develop more of South Carolina's children. Every child should have access to the best of offerings available in education. I support public education. I hope to serve on any committee effort that will correct the inequity in educational offering to children in SC.
Second, our district as well as all of the state of South Carolina should seek legislation that draws the best of business to our region. To that end we should measure all legislative activity against its contribution to making our region a great place to live, learn, work, play and raise a family. I will passionately question, debate and contribute to the creation of all legislation with a watchful eye as to its contribution to these parameters of life. We should be business friendly and people oriented.
Thirdly, I vow to be accessible and in touch with the constituency of our district to insure that I am truly a representative of the hearts and minds of our citizens. The issue is quality of life. I believe in knowing the will of the people and understand that during times of division on issues that I need to exercise a judgement based on a healthy viewpoint of life. I have chosen an approach to life at this point in my own life that I am confident will serve the common good. My belief that none of us is as smart as all of us keeps me humble in my leadership and fully open to doing my job of being a representative of the people. The people should go to the statehouse. I am just the conduit.
What other issues do you see as important? Our government needs to be functional. I am committed to bridging the divides that have held the progress of the state of South Carolina in check when it comes to moving forward as a great place to live and do business. My values and sense of responsibility transcends party lines.
Protection of our farmlands, wetlands, woodlands and other natural resources requires decisions that stimulates and encourages the growth of business but at the same time keeps the relationship between people and creation at ease. A challenge for South Carolina is be a vibrant business center as well as a unique healthy living experience.

Holy grail of eye primer
Works way better than mac's paint pots or just using concealer on the eyes. It really keeps whatever you put on your eyes, on your eyes! I absolutely love it and it is a really great product. You literally only need a tiny dot on each eye and you are golden. Amazing product
I choose this over the Urban Decay everyday!
It makes your eye shadows stick! This products doesn't really even out the skin tone too much, but it reduces the appearence of redness and veins, slightly. I've tried the Urban Decay Primer Potion (the original) and I chose this over it any day because my eye shadow does not crease when I have this applied! I was cursed with hooded, oily eyelids and this is the only thing that prevents my eye shadow from slipping off my face. Brilliant product. It will always be in my makeup bag! Xx
I've been using this primer for so many years and I still love it. It applies smoothly and blends out so it doesn't take away from whatever shadow is being applied. The only problem I have it that I've been noticing that it does not last all day like it used to. I usually put my make up on at 5 in the morning and by 2:30 I can see the shadow starting to crease. I still love this product and will continue to use. I just hope they figure out a way to make it last longer but it makes shadows stand out beautifully.

Silky texture
I got a sample of the TFSI with my order of the Naked Eye Collection- which was great because I thought I might need to run out and buy it (I like to use the same brands for eye primer and shadow first, THEN mix and match). The sample is pretty hefty but its hard not to accidentally dry it out when its opened, even when tucked in a plastic sandwhich baggie. Nevertheless, the formula still holds up even when it thickens. Anyway, I've heard so many great things about this primer I was glad to finally get it, even as sample (I was beginning to think I was the only girl on the planet that didn't have this!). Texture wise this is very silicone-y- super silky, a texture I kinda love/hate. I don't think I creased up much, but I have been so often lately regardless of the primers I've been using. Oh well. This primer almost resembles the Lorac Behind the Scenes eye primer. Its too silky to be like the UDPP, which is more tacky and putty-like and Benefit's Stay Don't Stray is wet and creamy, nothing like this one. If you really like that slippery smooth finish this is the eye primer for you. I would get it again, but its not tops on my list, right this moment.
Works well, but not perfect.
I have been using this product for years. I love how it enhances the eyeshadows you use on top of it, but its frustrating how difficult it is to clean up smudged eyeshadow without an eye makeup remover. Though this product does exactly what it says its going to do, for some reason my eyeshadow still manages to crease in the inner corner by the end of the day. I have tried virtually everything to prevent this from happening so now I just continue to be frustrated with it. Its still an amazing product nonetheless
Works great, but creases the fastest on me!
I got a sample of this. My shadows apply super vibrant over them without a base, more than my other primers. However, this also creases the fastest on me and badly. I always set my primer with a skintone color to help blending and prevent as much creasing as possible. My Tarte Creaseless primer and GDE Control Freak last about 10 hours without creasing. I can always use a base to pull ultimate vibrancy. Overall, this isn't my favorite, but works really nice. I've tried a lot worse!
It's simply terrific....
I've tried a few other eye shadow primers but i think too faced shadow insurance is my clearly favorite. I never wear eye shadow without it because keeps my shadow on for up to 13 hours. I have the most oily lids but this helped my eye shadow stay put all day and night. I would recommend it to everyone.
Who doesn't love this?
Hands down one of the best eyelid primers in existence. It made my top beauty products of 2012 list on the blog and it is a reliable favorite in my beauty collection. It was the first eyelid primer I ever tried and it was the first one I reviewed on my blog as wel. It really is that awesome.
I have literally used this every day for almost for years and it is just now starting to run out. Holy value batman. Plus it works! Well alright! Lasts all day, and clearly a little hours a long way. I would say I will repurchase, but I doubt ill actually ever need to!

Today is a day of firsts here in New York City. It's the first snowfall of 2012, bringing with it a blanket of white covering the streets. If you haven't yet experienced it, the West Village is simply astounding under snow, and a must-add to anyone's bucket list. The second of firsts is that I'm writing my first Coffee Crawl in the shop, on the WordPress app, from my brand new iPad. I've been long awaiting this moment for such a long time and it's finally here! I hope you enjoy the experience as much as I am. Anyway, back to the crawl. Today I'm writing from a fantastic little spot in the West Village that's only about 3 months old: the Doughboy Bake Shop. Located at 535 Hudson Street at the corner of Charles Street, it's clearly in the perfect spot. You're probably thinking that it may be a little close to Cafe Panino Mucho Giusto, but both places are very different. Doughboy is much more of a bakery (obviously) that sells coffee, which I'll get to. CPMG features more food items that you would want to go to for meals, do you see the distinction (I hope you caught that movie reference quote).
Doughboy Bake Shop is in a store that has housed many other restaurants in the recent years. Before Doughboy it was a gelato shop and before that, more of a cake bakery. I never went in to either of those former locations, but now I'm venturing in because it's much more up my alley. And I'm so glad that I did. The first impression that I got when I walked in was, "I'm in love." The 2 employees working were incredibly friendly and chatty, which I love. We talked about everything from where they were from originally (one was from Iowa, which I've never had the pleasure of seeing but hope to one day), to what the meaning of the shop's name was. Scattered around the bakery's walls were images of soldiers. I suppose I should have known this, but after a peek at Wikipedia I discovered that a Doughboy is actually a soldier from the World War 1 era. They were named so because after marching through the dry terrain of Mexico, the soldiers would get covered in dust, giving the appearance of unbaked dough. Interesting fact…and clever name!! Props. Most of the baking takes place downstairs, but they do have a little oven in the main portion of the bakery I'm guessing for cookies, muffins and other necessities that they may run out of more quickly. Downstairs is where the bundt cakes, coffee cakes and other yummy goods come to life. I couldn't find any stairs within my line of sight so I was curious as to how they were transported up…and then I saw the dumbwaiter. Yes, a dumb-waiter. All that I could think of was when Michelle Williams hid in her college kitchen's dumb-waiter in Halloween: H2O. Of course Doughboy was nothing like that setting, but still it came to mind. For some reason I just love that they use it for transporting the baked goods between floors. I don't know why, I'm just odd like that sometimes.
Next up, and my favorite portion of the crawl: the food. The delicious, fresh-from-the-oven, food. I honestly had no idea what I wanted to try….first. Doughboy has everything from blueberry and apple cinnamon muffins to banana bread with chocolate chips to an iced blueberry bundt cake. I simply couldn't take it. I opted to taste the apple cinnamon muffin and my companion for this crawl had the banana bread with chocolate chips. Actually let's be honest, I had both. The muffins had just come out of the oven so as I pulled the wrapper off and tore the muffin in two, steam rose out of the middle. I really enjoy seeing the steam. It adds that extra touch of "home" that makes everything taste better, as if my grandfather just pulled it out of his oven. The banana bread with chocolate chips on the other hand, I just can't. I really can't. It was phenomenal. I mean, obviously bananas and chocolate are going to taste divine, but this really pushed it over the top. I know that the picture doesn't do it too much justice, but trust me. Trust. Me. The coffee that Doughboy serves up is courtesy of Mud. Mud Coffee is a staple to New York City and can be found in Brooklyn, at various coffee shops or at their traveling coffee trucks. My favorite to visit is in Union Square before hitting up Regal for a movie. But, being a very popular and huge force in the City, Mud adds the perfect complement to the treats.
I hope that this edition of the crawl sheds a little light onto what awaits you at Doughboy Bake Shop. I hope that the same two people are there every Saturday morning, serving me the same amazing banana bread and conversation because if so, this coffee shop just become one of my all-time favorites.

Esoteric Symbolism and Allegory in Faulkner's Old Man
November 18, 2010 5 Comments
Revised. 12/8/10
By: Jay
(c) Copyrighted, all right reserved.
Old Man is part of a Faulkner work titled The Wild Palms, a collection of two stories; Old Man and If I Forget Thee Jerusalem, both of which deal with similar themes, yet are able to stand alone. Old Man is a fascinating tale, rife with allusions to biblical characters, questions of destiny and freedom, gender and sexual issues, natural and spiritual forces, social flaws and rival cultures, operating under a modernist analysis. It also uses humor to make the piece somewhat of a dark satire. Faulkner's rich usage of symbols, and the stories' allegorical meanings are worthy of analysis within their own context (as opposed to comparison with The Wild Palms).
Old Man takes place in Mississippi in 1927 during a flood of the Mississippi River, where two convicts are chosen to paddle down river and rescue stranded refugees. Of the two, one is described as "plump," while the protagonist is "tall and thin." Neither criminals are exceptionally bright, and have been engaged in manual labor on a levee at a place called "The Farm" for seven years, yet had oddly not seen the water itself in. They are thus isolated, nameless individuals who subsist at an animalistic level, as the "Farm" terminology suggests. In fact, we later learn that the anonymous tall convict had derived the idea to rob a train from reading pulp fiction novels.
His youthful reasoning was apparently that if he took the best ideas from all the novels he had read, his robbery would prove successful. This is an amusing use of irony where a completely fictional reality comes to dominate the psychological motivations for a young southern male's decision to rob trains, ultimately for his teenage girlfriend, which lands him in jail. The male/female dynamic will be one of the main themes of the novella, and Faulkner takes a particularly negative and antagonistic view of the social norms of his day, especially that of married life and the status quo. Several examples arise in which Faulkner makes this point as the convict is swept along by the river's fatalistic currents.
When the flood breaks loose, the tall convict is unaware of what is happening: He has never seen the river itself and asks a "Negro man" what has happened, who responds that it is "De old man." The river, then, is a key player in this story, and is the Mississippi itself. The name suggests the ancient preternatural powers of nature that are brute, untamed, uncivilized and determining. Another theme in the story is that of the reality of man's free will in the face of raw nature, which seems to sweep us along, with no concern for social strata or human virtue or vice.

About Me Comfort-oriented, Practical, Stylish
Can't give any cons at this time and the only reason I didn't add durability to the pros is I have not really put them to the test yet. Have used them once but I just got them in. Road in about low 50 degree weather and I love them!
Good for the Harley rider

About Me Stylish
Great for riding the Harley, keeping the wind and weather out of the sleeves and keeping hands dry and warm enough. I bought them for hubby and he loves them. He has very large hands and they actually fit!

Once the fall temperatures drop I'llwear these gloves daily on my motorcycle
Great Gloves
By RonnieD
from Pine Bluff, AR
I like these so well I bought extra pairs for spares or gifts. They feel great, fit well and look good too. I don't know how well they will keep my hands warm on my motorcycle, but I expect them to do as well as anything else. The thinsulate insulation is just enough that they aren't too bulky for gripping the handlebars.
Great Riding Glove

Just what the Doctor ordered.
By Dennis the M
from Wenatchee, WA
Got these gloves specifically for motorcycling. They are very comfortable and warm to about 40 degrees F while riding. The Gauntlet cuffs keep the wind out of jacket sleeves and the leather is really soft and form fitting.

love it or hate it review
By JC
from Hackettstown, NJ
Hello Wilson's Leather, I have have been a long time customer (maybe 15 years) buying wallets, gloves, leather jackets, hats both personal and for gifts and I have been very satisfied with your products until this XMAS gift that I asked my wife to get me. The leather gloves, as soon as I put in my left glove the seam started to tear along the inside of the thumb stitching. We returned them and the new pair showed some stress on the stitching as well on the left glove thumb area, but not torn. The right glove is ok and the sizing is right, maybe maybe stitching process on the left glove with that machine. Leather is comfortable and flexible, we'll see how it goes with the replacement pair. They are very nice looking gloves. There was also a price change during the exchange process, still waiting to see the credit.
Outstanding style
By waiting for lefty
from Ohio
I bought these for my boyfriend, who's not a rider but favors the biker style. They fit, well, like a glove, and look incredible -- the long gauntlet is particularly cool-looking. He really loves them. Recommend that you buy a size larger, as they run somewhat small. I wish they came in a women's style.

Any restaurateur knows that hiring the wrong employee can be very costly for business. Not only will a bad employee cost you literally, by spending the money to hire and train them and the employee that eventually replaces them, but the level of work they bring to the table in your restaurant can also be very costly.

PRESCOTT, Ark. (AP) - A factory in Prescott that makes roofing materials marked the opening Monday of its $36 million expansion and addition of 100 new jobs.Firestone Building Products Co. consolidated work from a plant at Kingtree, S.C., with its modernized factory in Prescott. The company has operated the Prescott plant for more than 40 years and it specializes in producing a type of synthetic rubber roof covering known as EPDM, or ethylene propylene diene monomer.The factory had about 400 workers prior to the expansion, which added 52,500 square feet to the plant and updated equipment to help it save on energy costs and reduce waste.Gov. Mike Beebe was on hand for the ceremony, as was U.S. Rep. Mike Ross, who is from Prescott."Firestone's decision to stay and expand in Prescott is an investment not only in Arkansas, but in the dedicated workforce that has brought them success here," Beebe said. "We thank Firestone for believing in southwest Arkansas, and wish them continued prosperity in this expanded facility."To help keep the plant in Arkansas, Beebe kicked in $1.25 million from his Quick Action Closing Fund, and the company used the money for site improvements and to relocate equipment. Firestone also qualifies for a cash rebate equal to 5 percent of its payroll for five years and a state sales tax credit of 6.5 percent for the company's overall investment.Also Monday, the company marked 1 million hours logged by plant employees without a lost-time accident."Since 1984, quality EPDM roofing material has been manufactured in Prescott, the largest EPDM manufacturing plant in the world," said Tim Dunn, the company's president. "With the expansion project and the investment we have made in equipment refinements and additions, Firestone is well positioned to supply our customers with superior roofing products for their future construction needs."Indianapolis-based Firestone Building Products produces a range of building products.
