text: stereohype/habitat collaboration | FL@33 concept and packaging product development for autumn/winter 2011/12 season FL@33 and it's sister company Stereohype.com – graphic art and fashion boutique – have partnered up with Habitat in 2010 to develop and manufacture a series of themed button badge sets of four. Since launching our 2010 sets FL@33/Stereohype is regularly compiling and presenting series of themed button badge sets using individual badge designs from our growing collection of button badges created for Stereohype by emerging and established artists and designers from around the world since 2004. The entire collection already includes over 630 button badge designs. A packaging was developed in close collaboration with Habitat and after all required lab-tests etc were finalised five badge sets were produced as a first test-run in 2010. FL@33 improved the packaging in 2011 for a second – much larger order. For a second time in Stereohype's history badges were not produced in the United Kingdom but in China – as quantities were simply too high for our usual manufacturing processes. Shown above are pictures of the final badge sets but also a few packaging details and samples. Once again we were in a position to offer royalties to the selected designers – a real pleasure as this was something we always had in mind but knew it would only become possible when truly large quantities of one particular design would be sold. The high-quality badge sets hit Habitat stores in September/October 2011 across France, Germany, Spain and also the three London flagship stores of Habitat UK – now part of Home Retail Group. Additional sets are currently in the process of being developed. The button badge sets Habitat selected in 2011 were created by the following talents: Words (produced for a second time) —Sarah Boris, Richard Kirk, FL@33, David Foldvari. Dogs — by Gergö Gilicze, Musa, Judith Egger and Megumu Kasuga. Button badge buttons (x4) — Rieme Gleijm. Youth — Andrew Townsend, United States Of The Arts (USotA), Julian Morey and Reala.

Apparently, Blackburn's relegation is a disaster for the whole town... It's not, though, is it?
I would have thought that surely it would be a bonus for the town's take away restaurants.
After all there will be less money about, so people will be downgrading their eating habits, no fancy meals, just getting takeaways, so the chicken shops will be doing a roaring trade.
Liverpool dominating Chelsea and 3-0 up inside half an hour. John Terry apparently made to look like Bambi on ice. Even Carroll has nutmegged him.
Absolutely nothing funny regarding our plight whatsoever, just because we are a small town club that punches above it's weight it doesn't mean other fans should take the pizz. If this had happened at any big city club, then the media would have been all over this. Venky's out, as for Kean, the backstabbing, ass licking, imbecile. Well he's earning 1.5 million, for taking the pizz.
Well Chelsea doing well so far.....................did not expect that to be happening so far!
What are Chelsea doing, putting everything into the Champions league final only!
I take it that Liverpool were pi**ed after the FA cup maybe
What ever, if it stays this way with a home win.
It makes Spurs's position a bit clearer and more of a winner takes all result with regard to Newcastle.
Well it should have been 4-0
Penalty taken by Downing missed
Liverpool get a penalty just before halt time, and hand the ball to Downing, who's still looking for his 1st Premier League goal. A chance to get the monkey off his back in a no-pressure game that's pretty much won anyway.
And he blasts it against the post.
Downing. What a player.
P.S. If the Chavs are going to have to have a bad game I'd rather it be in Munich than Klanfield.

Blackburn fans
That was woeful from the chelsea keeper!
Unfortunately, he won't be between the sticks in Munich.
Noticed all the Liverpool players staying on the pitch after the match with family members. I haven't spotted Carroll's caravan yet though.
Whether Chelsea were eying the Champions league final or not.
Losing badly beforehand doesn't strike me as a good way to proceed.
Well the next game for Chelsea is against relegated Blackburn Rovers, what kind of score could that be
Good to see some real passion from a fan of a club. I don't know if you go to games or not (half a point off if you don't), but it's what being a supporter of your team means. There's a time and place for clinical analysis (usually from an armchair) but often it's just a gut instinct thing.
Blackburn is in no way a 'big' club, but it tries to compete in an area where there are many clubs, and it's so easy to lose fans to the so called glamour boys at Old Trafford, The Etihad and even Anfield.
If it's any consolation the Championship is more fun...honest

Anyone who loves winter sports will be very aware that great snow conditions and lots of powder depend heavily on weather and the environment. We have to respect our environment in order to continue to enjoy ourselves in the great outdoors for years to come. It's a balancing act and something we are very aware of here at Harris Mountains Heli-Ski.
We operate in a way which we believe to be as sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible. For example, we never leave anything behind, all rubbish is taken out of the field and we work hard to protect the beautiful mountain environment we love skiing in.
It's certainly not something we take for granted and we'd love to hear your feedback on this topic! Tell us what you think about how we operate in the context of the environment and sustainability. Did we meet your expectations on this front?
You can post your comments, feedback and questions on this topic right here on our blog or on our heli ski Facebook page.
Let's hope we may long continue to ride powder like this! Rider: Wolle Nyvelt Photo: Nick Hamilton, Transworld Snowboarding

Regex bug related to ignoring \r when regex operator appears after it Related to my original post about a regex for finding duplicate lines:
http://www.emeditor.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=3&forum=3&post_id=5812#forumpost5812 and my subsequent enhancement request about ignoring \r in a regex: http://www.emeditor.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=1811&post_id=5888&forum=4#forumpost5888 it would appear there is a bug when "\r" appears in a regex, and is followed by a regex operator like ? or * (and probably others). From playing around with it, it looks like EmEditor just removes the "\r", so when there is a regex like
EmEditor silently strips out "\r", leaving
which is incorrect. A few possible solutions involve: 1) Checking if the "\r" is followed by an operator which applies to the previous character (eg. ? or * etc.), and stripping that operator as well. 2) Replacing the "\r" with "(\r)" seems to solve the problem, but that would then affect back references. 3) If possible, tell the regex engine to ignore "\r". Option (3) may be the best option if available, since it will probably handle all cases properly. Either way, it's not as easy at it would first seem. |

Re: Regex bug related to ignoring \r when regex operator appears after it Hi Deipotent,
As you wrote, EmEditor strips out '\r' from regular expressions when you use Find. This is because a new line is represented as a '\n' and not '\r\n' no matter whether '\r' or '\n' or '\r\n' is used for a new line. Currently, this is the specification because many users were confused whey they needed to specify '\r' or '\r\n' for a new line in earlier versions. When you specify a new line, please use '\n', and not '\r'. Thank you!

text: Med-Trans still accepting membership applications By Trisha MaldonadoDouglas Dispatch Med-Trans air medical transportation continues to accept membership applications in Douglas. Living miles away from a medical facility better equipped to handle complications and emergencies has created a need for air medical transport in life threatening emergencies. Even if an individual has medical insurance, an emergency medical flight can leave unexpected out of pocket expenses. Med-Trans provides air medical transportation for $60 a year. They have also partnered with the City of Douglas to provide this service to the community at a more affordable and convenient way of paying for the membership. Once a participant becomes a member they can opt to either pay the $60 in full or have a $5 monthly fee attached to their water bill. If the member has insurance Med-Trans will cover what the insurance did not. If the member does not have insurance Med-Trans membership will cover the entire cost of the air transport. Med-Trans membership support helps subsidize the program; this is how they are able to provide the service at such a low cost. There is no limit to the number of flights a member may take in a year. Each flight is handled the same way and must be medically necessary. With a household membership, all individuals who reside at the residence can be covered by the membership. College students can be covered by the household membership if their primary address is the same as the member's address. In July of 2012 City of Douglas employees were offered the service and they had an estimated 80 households sign up. As of January this service has been offered to the entire community of Douglas and more than 60 households have signed up so far. People wanting to sign up for the service can do so by picking up an application at the water department or the Douglas Fire Department or by going to Med-Trans website at mtcmembership.com. |

Twickenham traders win Diamond Jubilee Shopping Parade competition
A group of six traders from Church Street in Twickenham have won a visit to the House of Lords as the guests of Lord True, Leader of Richmond Council after winning the Diamond Jubilee Shopping Parade Competition.
The event, organised by Richmond Borough in Bloom, highlights how floral displays can enhance the shopping experience for residents and visitors alike. The horticultural efforts of traders in various shopping areas across the borough were judged in three categories.
Church Street won the largest group category (41 or more properties) and was also the overall competition winner. In addition to the House of Lords visit, the Church Street Traders Association will receive a commemorative trophy from Richmond Borough in Bloom and £500, sponsored by Veolia Environmental Services, for the further enhancement of their parade.
East Twickenham Traders Association came second in this category for the parade of shops in Richmond Road leading to Richmond Bridge and will receive a cash prize of £250.
Hampton Village Traders Association scooped two group wins, their shopping parades in the Station Road area winning Group 1 (for 6-20 properties), and the Ashley Road/Station Approach area winning Group 2 (for 21-40 properties). Each area will receive £500 sponsored again by Veolia Environmental Services. Second place goes to Kew Royal Parade/Station Parade in Group 1, winning £250.
Cllr Pamela Fleming, Richmond Council's Strategic Cabinet Member for Community, Business and Culture, joined the judging team last week (July 26) with horticulturalists Reg Leach and Graham Golledge, and Borough in Bloom members Sheena Harold and Pat Schooling.
Cllr Fleming said: "This has been another fantastic year for Richmond Borough in Bloom, and businesses have excelled at showcasing the Borough's shopping areas through creative and outstanding displays of colour.
"Given this very unique year with the Royal visit, Jubilee celebration and the excitement of all the Olympic events taking place in the borough, bringing more visitors than ever, it is a great credit to our local traders that they have worked so hard to make their parades even more attractive.
Thanks to the talent and tireless work by our green-fingered business community, Richmond upon Thames is looking brighter and welcoming for both our international guests and our residents."
Pat Schooling, Richmond Borough in Bloom committee chairman said: "For many years Church Street has been admired for the way floral display is used to help draw in the customers and in this Diamond Jubilee year the traders have excelled themselves. The success of Hampton Village Traders is also quite remarkable, especially as this area has been without any bloom at all until now."

Yes, Trayvon Martin was murdered.
Yes, it is a terrible, terrible tragedy.
Yes, I am deeply saddened for his family and friends.
No, I'm not ready to join the movement that this was racial profiling.
This is just my opinion and apparently we all have one in the case of Trayvon's untimely demise. At 17 years old, the "child" should not have died. Period. But, unfortunately, he did. And you'd probably be surprised to know that roughly, on average, 14 other young people were killed that same day. We're not hearing much about them in the news though, are we?
According to Teen Violence Statistics Website here are the surprising numbers:
- An average of 15 young people are killed each day in the U.S., and over 80 percent of those are killed with guns.
- In 2004, violence statistics report 750,000 young people were treated in hospitals for violence-related injuries.
- One third of high school students reported being involved in a fight at school in 2004, and 17 percent reported bringing a weapon to school in the month preceding the 2004 survey.
- 1 in 12 teens in high school are injured or threatened with a weapon each year.
- 30 percent of junior and senior high school students are involved in bullying each year as the victim, bully, or both.
- According to a violence statistics report by the U.S. Secret Service, in the previous decade, the odds of a high school student being injured or threatened with a weapon were about 1 in 14, and the odds of a teen being in a physical fight were 1 in 7.
This is remarkably sad, in and of itself, but what makes it worse is when we sensationalize a tragedy based on information that may not be true. Everyone is ready to burn the alleged shooter at the stake, but for the wrong reason.
Yes, Trayvon was murdered.
Yes, it is a terrible, terrible tragedy.
Yes, I am deeply saddened for his family and friends.
But enough with trying to make this into a racially motivated hate crime.
Here's what we know…somewhere around 7 pm, February 26, 2012, Trayvon was walking back to his father's girlfriend's house after going to a convenience store for iced tea and skittles. It had started to rain and Trayvon pulled the hood of his sweatshirt over his head to protect his head and cell phone ear piece. He was on his phone, talking with his girlfriend during the stroll. George Zimmerman, the local Community Watch Coordinator, saw Trayvon and decided he was a suspicious character, possibly a threat, and began following him. Zimmerman called 911. According to many different reports, the 911 operator told him to stay in his vehicle.
Here's what we don't know…why did George Zimmerman decide to approach Trayvon? Why was there an argument? Was there a fight? Why was Trayvon shot?
The first news reports about this tragedy claimed George Zimmerman was "white". Just about every single report says, "African-American male, Trayvon Martin". And now that the Nation knows Zimmerman is not a Caucasian, the news is still trying to keep the painted picture about racism, by referring to him as "mixed ethnic descent". Zimmerman's father is white, his mother Hispanic, but his voter registration card claims the Hispanic portion, not the Caucasian. His photo reflects the Hispanic portion, not the Caucasian.
It's odd how the racial battle has been the highlight of this tragedy. I believe if George Zimmerman were strictly a Caucasian man, there would already have been more deaths as a result of this one. But he's not.
And it's not about race.
News reports and prosecutors have planted the bug on racial profiling. And boy did we fall for it. With all the news reports out there, have you seen the one about NBC apologizing for how they "inserted racism into the Trayvon Martin 911 call"? No, I hadn't either until yesterday.
Funny how that hasn't been the hottest news report pertaining to this case.
Yes, Trayvon was murdered.
Yes, it is a terrible, terrible tragedy.
Yes, I am deeply saddened for his family and friends.
But recognize the hoodie did play a role in his death.
Trayvon was a young, black male with a hood over his head. It was raining, and I'm not sure any teenage boy would ever carry an umbrella, so yes, the hoodie is appropriate attire and should not be responsible for Trayvon being referred to as suspicious.
But let's face facts here people. The hoodie has been used repeatedly, by Caucasians and African Americans alike, as a part of the criminal's uniform. And if I saw a person walking around in my neighborhood, in the rain, looking at houses, talking into his phone, without a set urgency to get out of the rain, wearing a hoodie…yeah, I'd worry too.
Would I approach him? NO! But I'm not a community watch representative and apparently Zimmerman has been involved with this organization for quite some time. Although this neighborhood is gated, apparently they've had some trouble in the past.
Clearly recognize that I am not saying Trayvon should have been murdered for wearing a hoodie, but what the "Million Hoodie March" and the celebrity tweets are saying is that he was killed for his clothing choice. STOP IT. Young men, black and white and everywhere in between, are responsible for making that particular outfit look suspicious.
Here is a report on the community program:
The February 2012 homeowner's association newsletter requested that crime victims "call our captain, George Zimmerman" after calling the police. "He [Zimmerman] once caught a thief and an arrest was made," said Cynthia Wibker, secretary of the homeowners association.
Police had been called to The Retreat at Twin Lakes 402 times from January 1, 2011, to February 26, 2012. Crimes committed at The Retreat in the year prior to Martin's death included eight burglaries, nine thefts and one shooting. The City of Sanford posted a "George Zimmerman 911 Call History" listing 46 event reports naming George Zimmerman as the caller between 2004 and the night of the shooting.
Zimmerman was licensed to carry a firearm. Sanford Police Chief Bill Lee stated that neighborhood watch volunteers are not encouraged to carry a gun but have a Constitutional right to do so. Lee further stated, "Mr. Zimmerman was not acting outside the legal boundaries of Florida Statute by carrying his weapon when this incident occurred."
So, why would this man call 911 so many times between 2004 and 2012 without incident, yet murder Trayvon?
Did Trayvon, although known for being a terrific kid, attack Zimmerman? Probably not, but keep in mind some people aren't as innocent as they lead others to believe. How many times have we heard "but he was just the nicest guy. Quiet and reserved, never caused any trouble" about a person charged with multiple murders?
Was Zimmerman power happy with his gun and community watch title? Probably. I think this crime is more about Zimmerman feeling his Wheaties and trying to be a badass than it ever was about race. I believe he got carried away, had a loaded gun ready, and wanted to be Chuck Norris or Clint Eastwood for a day. I also believe with the crime reports from that neighborhood; he was on the path to cleaning up and had the "no one is going to commit a crime in MY neighborhood and get away with it" attitude. It was a recipe for disaster.
I'm sure we'll find out in the upcoming years with the trial fully televised and all statements regurgitated repeatedly in our newspapers and magazines. I'll be surprised with all the coverage to date if we can find twelve impartial jurors. It's OJ all over again.
Yes, Trayvon was murdered.
Yes, it is a terrible, terrible tragedy.
Yes, I am deeply saddened for his family and friends.
But enough with turning this into something it's not.
What do you think? Was Trayvon just in the wrong place at wrong time? Or have we perpetuated the look of young black male in a hoodie as the poster boy for criminal activity?

That was my first build: http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=26699
Base on what I have learned during first build and experience from using this bike there is beginning of my second attemption.
Under impression of silence of hub drive, this time I decided to try one stage reduction.
This time my choice was TURNIGY HXT80-85-B (slim and cheap).
For my needs I had to remodel front and back of the motor, and do rewinding (I haven't done yet, still waiting for magnet wire) from 8 turns to 12 and switch from delta to star to get ~72kV, additionally a want improve air flow.
I am planning reduction ratio 5:1 and run this thing on 10S2P A123 (20Ah pouch). I will stick to the same controller I used before CC ICE 100. Voltage is a little above rating but my test with 36V show that ICE 100 can handle that, and mosfet 019N04NS used in this ESC are rated for 40V. So I am full of hope that's going to work.

I remember getting you from the pet shop. Nobody wanted you and you had bare patches and a bad eye. I took you to the vet and in no time you were happy and running around. Even your bad eye didn't seem to bother you.
We got Xavier in to keep you company. And Lukas build you this huge cage for inside. You were the cuddliest of the two. And it was so sweet how you and Tim would sniff eachother. Xavier was just a huge scaredy-cat. But your curiousity got the better of you. And it was so cute to see Tim and you touching noses. His huge border collie nose and your tiny black guinea pig nose. I think even Tim has noticed you gone and misses you.
Last Sunday I went and got a young baby guinea pig to keep Xavier company. He was really missing you and depressed. I think you would've liked Spiky. He's got spiky brown black fur and is about 7 weeks now. He's settled in nicely and the two get on well. Even Xavier has become more trusting now. Yesterday he didn't even scare away when I fixed the water bottle to the cage.
I really miss you, Alex. And I feel really guilty about what happened. I thought that I left you in good care when we went away. You see, my sister and her boyfriend were working all day and I didn't want to bother them with cleaning your cage as well as looking after the house. That's why I asked the neighbours boys to look after you.
I'm really sorry that they didn't do it. And just thinking how your last week must have been, breaks my heart.
Lucky for Xavier at least, that my sister did check on you two on the first weekend and realised something was badly wrong. She cleaned your cage and fed you. But it was already too late for you. On Monday you had died.
You know, the neighbour's kid realised that he'd done something wrong, because according to my sister, he didn't turn up again for over a week!
I miss you. And I wish I could turn back time and change things, but I can't.
I hope that you are in a beautiful place now and having lots of fun. Meadows of fresh grass and yummy flowers, crunchy carrots and juicy celery. Warm weather and always sunshine. And lots of other guinea pigs to play with!
Be at peace and we'll always remember you!

Through the agreement, Regions Bank customers will have access to a full range of financial advisory services provided by licensed financial consultants based in Regions Bank branches. The services include managed accounts, mutual funds, annuities, insurance, and financial and retirement planning tools, the bank said.
The agreement gives Regions Bank the opportunity to keep its mass market and mass-affluent customers with the bank, said Jim Nonnengard, executive vice president for Regions Investment Services, in a telephone interview.� The other pieces in the bank�s �wealth continuum� � namely trust and private banking services for wealthy customers � have always been in place, he explained.
�Choosing PrimeVest allows Regions to expedite our investment offerings for mass market customers and deliver financial planning services under the Regions brand that our customers know and trust,� Nonnengard said.
Sophie Schmitt, a senior analyst with research and advisory firm Aite Group, concurred that without an in-house broker-dealer, the bank had no investment advisory option for customers who walked into the branches, creating a hole in the bank�s mass-affluent strategy.
The program, which will be private labeled under the Regions Investment Solutions brand, will begin to be implemented in 2013 in select bank branches.
The announcement comes on the heels of a major reorganization in September of the bank�s wealth management group, which brought all of the bank�s investment-related businesses under one roof.
Regions Bank opted to go with the third-party marketing firm, rather than build its own broker-dealer operation, because its compliance, due diligence and other �back-shop� services had gone to Raymond James as part of the Morgan Keegan sale in April. It made sense to strike an agreement with PrimeVest because of the firm�s �speed-to-market� and its experience in working with more than 500 banks, said Nonnengard.
�Regions is uniquely positioned to create the program of the future and be customers� trusted financial guide,� said PrimeVest President and CEO Catherine Bonneau. �By working with PrimeVest, they can focus on building a high-performance, service-oriented team while leaving the broker-dealer operations to us.�
Bonneau believes the win may herald the start of a trend within the industry. The greater costs of compliance may well generate interest from regional institutions that historically would have �done it on their own,� she said, noting that Zions Bancorp, a regional bank based in Salt Lake City, also engaged PrimeVest as its third-party marketer earlier this year.
Schmitt agreed. �In this environment, building entire businesses seems cost prohibitive. It makes sense to partner with a third-party marketer,� she said.
Schmitt added that having a third-party marketer puts Regions Financial on a �more equal footing with other banks in the space,� such as SunTrust, which does have brokerage operations.
Regions Bank is actively recruiting financial consultants and plans to hire up to 100 consultants by the end of 2013. Job openings will be posted on PrimeVest�s career opportunities website in the coming weeks.
Regions Bank is a subsidiary of Regions Financial Corporation, a bank holding company with $122 billion in assets.

Zip Lines
North Carolina's zip line attractions are a breezy treat for thrill seekers of all ages. You can embark on a three-hour tour or just add on a fun zip line ride to a day spent rafting or wine tasting.
North Carolina is home to more zip lines than any other eastern state.
On a zip line, you glide on industrial-strength steel cables above ground between platforms. Riders are strapped into a secure harness and hooked to the cable by a carabineer-type device that acts as a pulley. While heights and speeds can be breathtaking, swooshing between landing points involves no banging, jarring or jostling. Your ride is naturally propelled by the gravity of your own body weight. On-site guides help riders launch and brake to enjoy a smooth and exhilarating ride. Check out these destinations for a great outdoor adventure:
Big Woods Zip Line at Sanders Ridge
Located near Winston-Salem, Big Woods offers an extra place to celebrate. After you swing through 150 acres of secluded Yadkin Valley forests on a canopy tour with 14 platforms and 12 cables up to 65 feet high, you can toast your adventure at the adjacent Sanders Ridge Winery.
Carolina Ziplines Canopy Tours
Here you can choose the "High Course," "The Web," a "Low Ropes" teambuilding tour and an evening "Lantern Tour." You'll love the inspiring natural location at the edge of Hanging Rock State Park, north of Winston-Salem.
Earthshine Discovery Center Zip Line
Lake Toxaway
Earthshine describes its zip line canopy tour as a powerful tool that can help kids and adults develop important life skills such as trust, confidence and courage. The seven-stage course has six different zip lines, including a tandem zip, plus a sky bridge.
Hawksnest Resort Zipline Tour
Seven Devils
Speed over trees, through trees, over lakes and creeks on 19 zip lines, including four super- or mega-zips over 1,500 feet. Four miles of zip line riding puts you at heights over 200 feet and speeds up to 50 miles per hour.
Nantahala Gorge Canopy Tours
At this zip line attraction southwest of Bryson City, you'll get a smooth, bird's-eye glide through 20 acres. During a three-hour, half-mile tour, you'll stop at three sky bridges and five transfer bridges or "zippers" located to view multiple ecosystems.
Navitat Canopy Adventures
True to its mash-up moniker ("navigation" and "habitat"), this three-hour course 20 minutes from Asheville was designed to highlight the natural landscape. You'll coast through 240 acres in Moody Cove, over mountain streams and a few 100-year-old hardwoods.
Plumtree Canopy Tours
Located on the edge of Pisgah National Forest 15 minutes from Linville Gorge, this zip line is owned and operated by the Vance Toe River Lodge, where you'll enjoy lunch or brunch as part of your fun day. You'll fly 60 feet above Isaac's Branch Creek, launch from "Rock & Roll," and zip past trees and mountainsides on "The Zinger."
Richland Creek ZipLine Canopy Tour
Soar through the forest at the base of Purgatory Mountain in Asheboro on 14 different zip line cables. In addition to two hours of white-knuckled excitement in a Randolph County scenic wilderness area, you make a stop at beautiful Mendenhall Falls.
Screaming Ziplines
Home to the first triple-wide, 2,000-foot line called the "Super Zip," this is a perfect course for racing. The Super Zip is an add-on to the standard six-line tour. Riders can descend on this treetop High Country attraction, just minutes outside of Boone, year-round.
The Beanstalk Journey at Catawba Meadows
You'll be whisked away through a life-size Ewok Village via a network of 15 interconnected islands in the sky. You can also challenge your climbing skills on the 32-foot "Beanstalk Climbing Tower," play on the giant "Spider's Climbing Web" and do night zipping.
U.S. National Whitewater Center Canopy Tour
During the course of this three-to-four area guided excursion through the wooded tree canopy along the scenic Catawba River, you'll travel along 14 tree platforms, seven different zip lines, cargo net climbs, rappel stations, sky bridges and other aerial elements. Also enjoy a zip line excursion paired with a fireside dinner with craft beer and wine.
ZipQuest® Waterfall & Treetop Adventure
This 2.5-hour treetop tour has eight zip lines, 16 tree platforms, three canopy sky bridges, and three spiral staircases in the canopy. Some lines give a pure adrenaline rush. Others let you soak up the natural beauty. Your tour ends with a long zip parallel to the only major waterfall in the Sandhills.

"I always loved running. It was something you could do by yourself, and under your own power. You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you wanted, fighting the wind if you felt like it, seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs." Jesse Owens

Auburn Hills — Fans filled the stands at the Palace of Auburn Hills on Wednesday, hoping to catch a glimpse of the team that could make history by going on to win this year's NCAA championship.
Michigan and Michigan State were among the tournament teams taking to the court for practice ahead of Thursday's opening-round games, much to the delight of hundreds of hometown fans of all ages.
MSU grad Joel Reb of Brighton brought his 4-year-old sons Jack and Connor to check out their favorite team. Everyone in the family has gone to the school, so it was only natural that the boys would be Spartan fans.
"It's a fun way to let them watch basketball," said Reb. "If you go to a full game, they tend to lose concentration, so this is nice and short and free."
On Thursday, No. 3 seed MSU will face Valparaiso at 12:15 p.m. and No. 4 seed U-M will take on South Dakota State at 7:15 p.m. Teams moving on in the next round will head to games on Saturday, also at the Palace.
The open practices Wednesday continued throughout the day, with fans showing up for an up-close encounter with their favorite players. Some checked the odds on their smart phones and others pulled out folded pieces of paper and went over their brackets. The predominant colors in the crowd: Michigan Blue and Spartan Green.
"I've been a huge fan of Michigan my whole life," said 18-year-old Aaron Boening of Clinton Township, who wore a Wolverine-shaped maize and blue hat to the practice. "I've never actually seen them play before, so I'm excited for it."
Boening has tickets to Thursday and Saturday's games because he's confident Michigan will make it through the first round.
"I'm hoping they win," he said. "I'm pretty sure they are going to go far."
Two fans who stood out from the crowd were Nichole and Justin Hawkins of Waterford. He is originally from Memphis, Tenn., so they boldly wore Tigers blue for their team, which plays St. Mary's on Thursday.
"It's kind of fun because we get to explain just how good they are," said Nichole Hawkins. "Plus all of our friends are Michigan and Michigan State fans and they just happen to be in the same tournament this year."
The two have tickets to Thursday's game and intend to get tickets to Saturday's action should their team continue on.
"It ended up being completely perfect," said Justin Hawkins.
The Spartans finished their practice driving to the basket, and the crowd oohed with excitement at every dunk. At the end of their session, the players waved to the fans as they walked off the court to a standing ovation.
"It's a great experience," said Michigan State fan Julian Dozier, 13, a three-time Amateur Athletic Union champion in boys basketball. "I just want to be out there with them. I like everything about it."
Dozier, who attends Burton Academy in Detroit, came with his grandfather Willie Hardaway. Hardaway, a Detroit resident, said he was thrilled to see his grandson so excited about the game.
"It's always good to see young guys go the right way," he said.
Sparty fan Zach Stevens of Lansing wore his love on his arm, literally. The 23-year-old proudly displayed his unique Spartan tattoo while wearing a Michigan State tank top. He said he got inked to honor his grandmother Sharlene Rotman, a longtime Michigan State employee and fan who died last year.
"Being a State fan, it was just really easy to get it done," said Stevens, whose tattoo includes a Red Cross and an Army Reserve dog tag, honoring his grandmother's service in both organizations. "She was a hell of a woman," he said.
For many, the open practices were a chance to throw themselves into March Madness with friends.
"It's all basketball. To me this is the best sport event there is, bar none," said Jan Hall, a lifelong Spartans fan from Saginaw. "You can have the Super Bowl, I love the World Series but this for me is just the best."
Hall, who is retired, came to the Palace with friends George Michelson, an Indiana Hoosiers fan, and Kevin Bupuis, a Michigan fan. The Big Ten buddies bought tickets to Thursday's games and enjoyed scouting out the teams at practice.
"We're here to scope them all out, you know, just in case the coaches want to give us a call if they want tips," joked Michelson. He said given the ups and downs of the regular season, he was looking forward to a tournament full of surprises.
"Nobody sees these things coming and that's what makes the tournament so exciting," he said. "With the season it's been with all the upsets, I expect the tournament to be the same way."

Health Insurances
Los Angeles health insurance companies come in all sizes and varieties, each catering different customer needs. Some health insurance companies work solely with employers, while others cater to specific demographics, such as seniors, teens, and children under 12. All insurance companies must oblige by certain state and federal laws, which is why it's important to have a thorough consultation with any insurance company about its coverage before signing up.

Los Angeles mortgages are tied to the general state of the economy, with mortgage rates going up and down as the economy improves or deteriorates. Of course, mortgage rates are determined by a number of factors, including one's own lending and credit history, income, and the value of the property being purchased. A qualified mortgage dealer or lending institution can help home buyers find the best rates and refinance when the opportunity arises.

Financial consultants spread their wings across many industries, often having expertise with accounting litigation, labor and employment law, and intellectual property issues as they tend to intersect in the worlds of business and finance.

Check Cashing & Money Wiring
Los Angeles check cashing and money wiring services are easy to find, though each service comes with its own set of rules and restrictions that should be fully understood before any money is handed over. For those who do not have access to personal banking, check cashing can be a viable alternative though the service usually charges a percentage of the total amount being cashed. Money wiring services should be guaranteed by the wiring company so that all funds reach their destination intact and on time.

Bio and Links
I was born on Aug. 1, 1937 in Marysville, Yuba Co., CA. to James (Jim) Edward Hammons and Alice (Lassie)Jane Ernst. I was raised by my Daddy Jim's wonderful parents, James LEE and Ruth Schooler Hammons. Because of their ages and strong family ties, I learned a lot about my family histories. I was raised to respect my ancestors. I hope that I am giving back just a little by posting to Find a Grave.
I have been married for 51 years to my wonderful husband,Roy Lee (R.L.) Davis, (this is us many years ago)...we have had 4 children, Dalton Lee, Rachel Melody, Denver Kory and Charm Mae. As you know, our son Dalton passed in 1989. Son Kory has stage 4 Melanoma. He has been in remission for about 8 years. Please continue to pray for him.
This picture was taken not to long after Dalton passed. Grandson Chance had also left us.
We have had 9 Grandchildren: Brandon Robert, Dane Ryan, Chelsea Ruth-Leigh, Chance Ragan, Cash Lee Dalton , Shea Kory, Jessica Aaron, Hayley Aleese and Morgann Chadahn. Chance died of a heart defect at age 7 months in 1981. He weighed just 7 lbs. It was a 7 month battle of surgeries, doctors and tests and a very emotional time for us. Because it is still so painful for her, my daughter, Melody ask that he not be listed on FAG.
We also have 6 great grandchildren, Dylan Dane Ryan, Ryder Lawrence, Shelby Lynn, Brody Ragan and Riley Christian and our newest addition, Corey Kahne.
We would like to thank everyone who visits our son, Dalton Lee Davis, and foster daughter, Jodi Lynne Smith and all our loved ones that are waiting for us in heaven. Your flowers and notes are a joy to receive. I am unable to walk the cemeteries now so I can't volunteer to photograph headstones. I hope my sponsoring and leaving flowers will make up for it.
Special thanks to the angels who have sponsored some of my loved ones.
My favorite thing to do on Find a Grave is to leave flowers when a person has none.
My pet peeve is finding whole cemeteries listed but not one flower left by that person for any of the graves. Everyone deserves at least one flower. Also, Listers that will NOT release your family members into your care. That is so petty and rude.
God bless you all.

RE: Courtney
According to the current owner of the property, the house has been vacant since the 1970's. The last Courtney owner was Chester, who sold the home and moved to Idaho to work in the mines. The home was sold to the current owners in the 1940's and rented out till the 70's. I do have photos of Levi and Mary and will try to post them in the Findagrave pages for them. As for the chair, there was no chair at the house, and we are thinking that it might be owned by a relative. We had an amazing time at the Pomeroy museum, there really is so much Courtney history in that museum, the ladies there are so nice and helpful, and any Courtney decendant would be amazed to see what they have. They even have a hat, scarf, and shall worn by Mary in the photo we will post..truly amazing

RE: Levi Courtney and the Courtney Homested
The Courtney home is located in the southeastern portion of the Pataha Flat, and is owned by a decendant of Florence.
It is in bad shape and will probably fall due to age within the next 10 years.
As for photos of Levi and Mary, the Pomeroy Historical Musuem have photos and information regarding the family, and were able to provide us with may helpful items for our research.
We are currently working on a Courtney family website that will chronicle the family history of Levi Baxters direct relatives dating as far back to 1780.
How are you related to Levi, Levi Baxter, Mary, or Ella?

Thank you for leaving flowers for my beloved Kendall.
That was so sweet of you. I understand you lost your son Dalton many years ago. I visit him when I spend more time on F.A.G. Your story of his life and legacy always make me smile. I am sorry you lost him at such a young age.
Be well and thank you again. You are a true shining star in helping others cope with loss.

In case you hadn't noticed, Content Marketing is the hot topic in digital right now. Everyone is in agreement that great quality content is one of the essential ways for brands to connect with their customers online. In the world of search, links are still our main tool for increasing visibility and driving traffic to our clients' sites; but that doesn't mean the Content Marketing train is passing us by. Brilliant content is how we can earn quality links, which means all the content that a business puts out there needs to be providing maximum SEO value.
It's not just about the volume or authority of the links your site attracts. The relevance and topicality of the context in which a link appears can make or break the value of that link. You can write the most entertaining or informative article of your career, but if it's picked up by a site that Google deems irrelevant to your niche the link could be interpreted as spam.
If iCrossing were a character from The Lord of the Rings, it would be Aragorn. This was the claim of Chief Strategy Officer Mark Iremonger at the Client Summit 2013.
Iremonger drew comparisons between our agency and "the wise peacemaker who marshals resources" to illustrate the point that search marketing must integrate with a brand's traditional reach channels to utilise the SEO potential that exists in all online engagement moments.
"Historically an SEO agency may have existed outside of a brand's circle of trust, acting as either a Saruman – powerful but unethical, Frodo – relentless and resourceful, or Golem – where the ends would be used to justify the means," he described. "Now SEO has been invited into the circle of trust and for the future we're looking at an even more aligned partner model."
Dave Coplin, the UK's self-titled Chief Envisioning Officer for Bing, believes we should strive to make people's professional experiences of technology as fulfilling as they can be in their personal lives.
Speaking at the iCrossing Client Summit 2013, Coplin held that we've reached a "plateau of mediocrity" in the enterprise world – a state which can block creativity.
"There are some wonderful things happening in the consumer world that can inform how we work in our professional lives. Many people have a better computer at home than the one that they're provided with at work and the fact that some companies are still forbidding staff access to social media channels indicates that they don't understand how the flow of information through such connectivity works to empower people and organisations."
Google's Mark Howe added a new word to the vocabulary of online marketers at the iCrossing 2013 client summit.
'Frazzing', explained Howe – Managing Director of Agency Operations in North & Central Europe – is a term coined by psychologists to describe the way consumers "frantically and ineffectively multitask" when coping with numerous screens and a proliferation of information. And how we plan media and advertising to match this behaviour is key to our effectiveness as online marketers.
With 75% UK smartphone penetration predicted for the end of 2013 and one in four of us now a three-screener, our attention is more divided than it ever has been. But Howe sees in this complex connectivity an exciting opportunity that allows marketing to move from measures of awareness to those of real relationships and accountability.
Forrester's Luca Paderni urged digital marketers to dissolve traditional channel-based silos and instead build strategy around reach, depth and relationships at the iCrossing Client Summit 2013.
Drawing on over 10 years of international marketing and strategy experience, Research Director Paderni's current work centres on upcoming trends in media and advertising that lead to increasing fragmentation.
The traditional marketing model of attention, interest, desire and action, he argued, presents major limitations when faced with today's perpetually connected customers. Little surprise given that it dates back over 100 years to 1904.
The SEO industry is most definitely undergoing a heightened level of change at the moment. iCrossing has been taking steps towards expanding its strategies beyond merely traditional SEO tactics for quite some time now. These tactics, if done properly, have the potential to be extremely valuable for increasing a client's search visibility, but in order to stay ahead of the game, we need to be constantly evolving.
Our focus now is shifting from a link-building approach to a relationship-building one, away from simply sending out emails and instead inviting influential bloggers to networking events; having face-to-face conversations about what stories matter both to them and, most importantly, the client. But how do you go about doing this whilst keeping in line with the client's overall business objectives?
We are now living in a time where dual screening, watching TV whilst using your smart phone or tablet, is the norm. I've been doing this for some time and quite often watch television with both my tablet and smartphone (not sure what they call that, tri-screening perhaps?). If you want to see the power of dual screening, tune into a popular TV programme like Take Me Out or Come Dine with Me and follow the conversations around the programme's official hashtag. You will be amazed.
A couple of days ago Twitter announced a major new update in their offering to brands and advertisers. As of this week, brands can target promoted tweets based on keywords in users' tweets and the tweets they interact with. Twitter introduced promoted tweets in April 2010 to let brands reach users based on their interests, who they follow and other parameters such as location and gender. The new keyword targeting option is the logical next step.
A key fact is that users won't be seeing more ads than before, they should simply be seeing more relevant ads. In general I don't want my social feeds interrupted by advertising, but if it's going to happen I'd rather the ads at least be relevant and problem solving. For instance, I tweet that there's nowhere in Brighton to get a decent cup of tea and later spot a promoted tweet from Small Batch about their loose leaf pots. This kind of targeting should improve the user experience on Twitter and help brands reach the right people.
When I signed in to my instant messenger this morning I had several orange flashing windows indicating I had new messages. I won't lie, it did make me feel important but these messages were not sociable greetings. Instead, they were links to an affiliate blog, with titles that made me stare for longer than necessary. The first one I came across, Google Affiliate Network to Close, explained that Google has decided to end its foray into the Affiliate Network business. To be honest, until this was posted on Affiliates4u an hour later, I thought that this was a very badly delayed April Fool's joke.
Why I was surprised
Initially, I was shocked. Google have a very expansive list of affiliate clients in the States and they were looking to expand quite aggressively in the UK over the next few years. They had also made key acquisitions of flagship partners to help them draw more clients in.
I have often been asked by clients for my view of the Google Affiliate Network and my response has always been that "they are still a little way off on their offering, especially their user interface," but I believed that they would sort this out in the next couple of years and establish themselves as genuine competition for the already established networks in the UK.
I recently read, with great interest, of the legal battle between Sweden and Google around the country's wish to formally insert the word 'ungoogleable', or 'ogooglebar', into the Swedish language. The definition that was offered around this new submission to the Swedish lexicon was 'something that cannot be found on any search engine'. Google's response was around its trade mark; surely the definition should be 'something that cannot be found on Google'? For me however, I translated the actions in an entirely different way, struck with horror at the personal revelation – something can't be found on Google!?
I am, I hate to say, one of 'those people' who, at times, can be seen to run for my Google safety blanket and dive into my handbag for my beloved phone to settle a factoid discussion – the height of the Scottish lock in the 2013 6 nations? Did Larsson live to see the publication of his first book? The capital of Hungary? You get the picture. I am not proud of it but I am of the generation where instant access to a vast wealth of information has been readily, and easily, available. To consider something 'ungoogleable' – preposterous!
But it exists! And some people do it on purpose! *Queue gasp!*

At approximately 9 a.m. on Saturday, the pair picked up their wilderness permit and said they estimated completing it in a day. The park ranger notified them that most people start pre-dawn in order to make Heaps Canyon a day trip. The pair said they were prepared to spend the night if necessary. While the two were never reported overdue, rangers did note that their vehicle was still parked at a trailhead on the morning of the Monday, October 8.
A helicopter from Grand Canyon was called in for the search. The helicopter crew was able to locate the canyoneers in the lower reaches of Heaps Canyon late in the afternoon of the October 8. After three days of travelling, the two had only completed about two thirds of the canyon. Some of the canyon's most difficult obstacles still lay ahead. The crew was able to get a radio to the pair who stated that they were not able to complete the canyon without assistance.
On the morning of the Tuesday, October 9, a ranger and firefighter were inserted to a bench above the two canyoneers. They cleared a helispot
which enabled the helicopter to land with additional rescuers. The six
member rescue team lowered a ranger from the bench 125 feet down to the stranded pair and then hauled all three people back to the bench. The two canyoneers did not require medical assistance.
The successful conclusion to the search was in part because the hikers had obtained a backcountry hiking permit which included information useful to the searchers. However, wilderness hikers should always inform someone of their plans along with an expected completion time. Had rangers not noticed the canyoneers' vehicle at the trailhead, it is unclear when or if the two would have been reported overdue. The group also had far less experience than most Heap's Canyon travelers. While canyon hiking (canyoneering) in Zion can be a challenging and rewarding activity, it is not one that should be entered into lightly.
