Councilmember Leventhal Hosts Small Business Breakfast
In January, I hosted a small and minority business breakfast to hear from the small business community about how Montgomery County can do a better job of providing opportunities to small and local businesses. More than 70 businesses were represented and attendees were given the opportunity to ask questions and raise concerns regarding contracting, outreach and the Local Small Business Reserve Program. Local small businesses have long been recognized as a major component of our countys economic health and vitality. 96% of businesses in Montgomery County have 49 or less employees.
The county has made serious strides in improving the business environment for our small businesses. We recently created a small business navigator position within the Department of Economic Development to serve as a primary point of contact for the small business community, help them comply with County policies and regulations and to advise the council and executive of legislation that would eliminate unnecessary and cumbersome regulations. And in 2012, Montgomery County awarded more contracts to local small businesses than in any previous year ($83.7 million). There is more that we can do, however.
I learned a great deal from small business owners at the breakfast and in the months to follow, I hope to translate their feedback into future events which will further expand opportunities for local small businesses. We are in the beginning stages of planning an event where small businesses can meet with large and middle size contractors for subcontracting opportunities. I also hope to organize a forum for county procurement officials to meet with small businesses and be introduced to the products and services they offer. These events will be posted on my website as they are scheduled.
Councilmember Leventhal Participates in Annual Homeless Count
In January I participated in the annual count of the homeless population in Montgomery County. The federally-mandated count gathers information to be part of the Annual Homeless Assessment Report (AHAR) prepared by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and delivered to Congress. The report focuses on the extent and nature of homelessness in America. The count must be done on a single night during the last 10 days of January.
Because the count must be completed in a single night, volunteers are normally under a time crunch to complete the count and are unable to engage with homeless indviduals for more than a minute or two. In the future though, I hope the county will do more than merely acknowleding the homeless during the survey and will work to assess the needs of the homeless and connect them to relevant services. The count is an important tool in measuring how effective our homeless prevention efforts have been, but it's also an opportunity to intercede in the lives of those who are stuggling with addiction, mental health issues, and other causes of homelessness.
As Chair of the County Council's Health and Human Services Committee, reducing homelessness continues to be one of my top priorities. The County's Housing First program that I co-founded has provided permanent, stable housing to 1,854 county residents since 2009.

On a recent trip to Brazil to represent Badoo at São Paulo Social Media Week, I found myself doing what foreigners, or "gringos" as they are affectionately known, usually do, stare at all the Motels. When I was growing up in Brazil they were just a taken-for-granted part of the landscape, but after 10 years abroad, the sheer number of such establishments dotted through São Paulo was very interesting to me. From an outsider's perspective, I could see how having hundreds of Motels selling rooms by the 4, 8 or 12 hour period (depending on your stamina I suppose) can make people think that Brazil as a nation is slightly obsessed with sex.
On the other hand, being Brazilian myself, and seeing how millions of people use Badoo in Brazil to find new friends every month (Brazil is our biggest market) I can tell you that this is not really true. It is more a matter of being really relaxed and open about it, and seeing sex as a part of everyday life rather than a taboo.
The rooms themselves are nothing short of incredible. It is not unusual to have large swimming pools inside your suite, and large Jacuzzi tubs usually come as standard (as do large round beds, mirrors on the ceiling and water mattresses).
While in other countries such establishments would be relegated to a certain part of the city or ignored by decent citizens altogether, in Brazil people openly talk about them and genuinely think there is nothing wrong with the concept whatsoever. In fact when I wanted to take a few pictures for this article I asked my Brazilian grandparents to drive me around São Paulo to photograph a few of them and they did not even bat an eyelid…
Another particularly Brazilian invention when it comes to hooking up is the "Drive-in," where people park their cars and either have curtains drawn around the vehicles for privacy or (in the more chic versions) one can drive into a type of garage that is equipped with aforementioned Jacuzzi tubs and round beds.
What I could not help thinking about as I snapped pictures on my phone like some sort of strange tourist was how confusing it must all be for Americans who visit Brazil… Being used to staying in Motels when travelling, surely many would have tried to book in for a few nights, only to be confronted by a puzzled receptionist questioning why they would possibly need the room for THAT long. As for Drive-ins, I can only imagine the puzzlement of a couple expecting to watch a movie as the curtains are drawn around them!
Japanese love hotels, Brazillian motels, Mexican "hoteles de paso" … Do you have any funny cultural experiences to share with us? If so then get in touch, we'd love to hear about them!

Rescue Group Info...
Nashville PITTIE was founded by Jana Mandes, a lifelong animal advocate. Jana has been a pit bull guardian for most of her life, with an inherent love of animals and a commitment to making a difference for pit bulls and the communities in which they live. Frustrated with always being on the "defense" and seeing the suffering they endure, we decided to take action to improve these animals' lives as well as the public perception of the dogs that we know as intelligent, playful, and loyal family pets.
Nashville PITTIE is not a rescue in the traditional sense. We noticed a trend in Nashville's animal welfare community where a lot of wonderful caring folks opened their hearts, homes, and wallets to rescue efforts and almost immediately became overwhelmed with pleas for help. Too often they find themselves in a vicious cycle of having more animals in need than there is help available. Nashville PITTIE 's aim is to get ahead of the issue and prevent homelessness, neglect, and abuse before it happens. The best way to achieve that is through community education and promotion of spay/neuter programs.
Nashville PITTIE is an all Volunteer organization. If you are interested in volunteering, please email email@example.com
Your tax-deductible donations are always accepted, needed and greatly appreciated! If you would like to donate to Nashville PITTIE, please visit http://nashvillepittie.org and click the "Donate" button. Nashville PITTIE is a registered non-profit organization with the State of Tennessee. We thank you in advance for your support!
We participate in traditional and even non-traditional community events as well as organized adoption events all around the Middle Tennessee area. We and our Adopt-a-Bulls would also love to meet you at any of our frequent "Pittie Socials" around town. Please check our website www.nashvillepittie.org or Nashville PITTIE on Facebook for schedules and updates.
Please note that we are not a shelter and do not have a facility that you can visit. All of our Adopt-A-Bulls are safe and comfortable indoors and in homes with their foster families
If you are interested in setting up a personal meeting with any of our pit bulls, please apply online by following this link: http://www.nashvillepittie.org/adoption_application.html
* Please do not ask us for an unaltered dog.
* ALL current animals MUST be spayed/neutered, up-to-date on all vaccinations and on monthly heartworm preventive (unless otherwise advised by a licensed veterinarian).
* A veterinary reference and a personal reference are required.
* A home visit is required by a representative of Nashville PITTIE.
* We do not recommend female to female adoptions, although we will consider on a case by case basis.
* An adoption fee of $200 ($250 for puppies under 6 months) is due when the final adoption contract is signed. This fee includes spay/neuter, vaccinations for the year, microchip and heartworm treatment if applicable.
* If you rent your home or own in a home owners association complex, verify with management that you are allowed to have a PIT BULL and not just any type of dog before applying. We will require written permission from your landlord or HOA.
*You will be required to fill out our adoption application which can be found at this link: http://www.nashvillepittie.org/adoption_application.html
We serve the Middle Tennessee/Nashville area.

NGE >> History and Archaeology >> Revolution and Early Republic, 1775-1800 >> Events >> Revolutionary War in Georgia |
Revolutionary War in Georgia Though Georgians opposed British trade regulations, many hesitated to join the revolutionary movement that emerged in the American colonies in the early 1770s and resulted in the Revolutionary War (1775-83). The colony had prospered under royal rule, and many Georgians thought that they needed the protection of British troops against a possible Indian attack. Georgia did not send representatives to the First Continental Congress that met in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1774. The Congress asked all colonies to form a group, called the Association, to ban trade with Britain. Georgia delegates gathered in a provincial congress in Savannah on January 18, 1775, to discuss whether to join the Association, and to elect representatives to the Second Continental Congress. Those who were elected declined to go to
News of the battles of Lexington and Concord in Massachusetts caused many Georgians who were wavering in their allegiance to join the radical movement. A group called the Sons of Liberty broke into the powder magazine in Savannah on May 11, 1775, and divided the powder with the South Carolina revolutionaries. Those who resisted royal government were usually called "Whigs," and those who remained loyal to the king were known as "Tories." Whigs were also referred to as "patriots," though the British thought of them as "rebels." Tories were also called "loyalists." Though Georgians continued to drink to the health of the king, they took government into their own hands
Violence in the Backcountry The heavy-handed tactics of the local committee in Augusta led to the first violence in the backcountry. On August 2, 1775, members of the committee confronted Thomas Brown at his residence on the South Carolina side of the Savannah River above Augusta. Brown had come to Georgia with seventy or so indentured servants in November 1774 in answer to Governor Wright's advertisement of the advantages of the newly Ceded Lands above Augusta and founded a settlement called Brownsborough. He attracted the anger of the Whigs by publicly denouncing the Association and summoning friends of the king to join a counterassociation. When he refused to swear to honor the Association, the crowd of Liberty men tortured him in various ways, scalping and fracturing his skull, burning his feet, and hauling him, unconscious, through the streets of Augusta as an object lesson to those who would denounce the Association. When he recovered, Brown retired into the Carolina backcountry, where he and other leaders enlisted hundreds of loyalists and threatened a march on Augusta. After much marching about and some skirmishing around the town of Ninety-Six, Brown and his friends heeded South Carolina governor Sir William Campbell's advice to await the arrival of the British. Brown retreated to Florida and persuaded Florida governor Patrick Tonyn to allow him to recruit a corps of rangers who would lead Indians to fight on the frontiers in conjunction with the expected landing on the coast. Meanwhile, rumors of a British-instigated plot to enlist slaves and Indians to help defeat the American patriots alarmed Georgians and Carolinians. Though false, the rumors were generally believed, and John Stuart, the Indian Commissioner, fled in fear for his life from Charleston, South Carolina, to Florida. Battle of the Rice Boats The arrival of
In the
Three Invasions of Florida By August Major General Charles Lee, military commander in the South, allowed himself to be persuaded by Georgians to stage an invasion of British East Florida. Lee had little hope of conquest, but he thought the military demonstration might impress the Indians. Unfortunately, he was recalled to the North, taking his Virginia and North Carolina troops with him, and the expedition got no farther than Sunbury, just south of Savannah, when South Carolina ordered her militia to return. Georgians under Lachlan McIntosh, who was recently promoted to brigadier general, skirmished with the Florida Rangers and their Indian allies on the Satilla River and then abandoned the southern borderlands. Congress recommended that the newly independent states adopt a permanent frame of government. Accordingly, Georgians elected delegates to a state constitutional convention that met in October 1776 in Savannah. Radical leaders of local committees dominated the convention and produced one of the most democratic constitutions of any state. The electorate included all men over twenty-one who possessed property worth ten pounds or were employed as artisans. A one-house assembly enacted legislation, and elected the governor, judges, and other officials. Georgia's constitution, adopted on February 5, 1777, created the state's first counties: Burke, Camden, Chatham, Effingham, Glynn, Liberty, Richmond, and Wilkes, all named for friends of the colonies in British Parliament, except Liberty, a title that honored St. John Parish's early zeal for American rights. Button Gwinnett
The first two
Other than the three abortive invasions of Florida and the patrolling of the western frontier, the Whigs accomplished little during the first three years of independence except survival. However, they gained experience in self-government and a determination not to surrender their new independence, and that was no small achievement. The Indians would have created greater havoc in the backcountry as the result of the instigations of John Stuart and Thomas Brown, but for the efforts of Continental Indian Commissioner George Galphin. Galphin used his enormous influence to persuade many of the Lower Creeks to remain neutral. The Return of the British Army By 1778 the war
Prior to Campbell's attack upon Georgia, General Augustine Prevost conducted a cattle raid into the lower Georgia counties. As a diversion, Lieutenant Colonel Lewis Fuser demonstrated against Fort Morris at Sunbury. When Fuser demanded the surrender of the fort, its commander, Lieutenant Colonel John McIntosh bravely answered, "Come and take it!" Fuser withdrew and Georgia
On December 28, 1778, Campbell's army landed unopposed on a bluff below Savannah, advanced through the swamps by an unguarded path, and overwhelmed General Robert Howe's defenders of Savannah. Campbell waited until January 12 for the arrival of Prevost's Royal Americans and Brown's Rangers from Florida, and on January 24 began a march with Brown's Rangers to Augusta in the backcountry. Except for a skirmish at the Burke County courthouse involving Brown's Rangers, Campbell was unopposed. Some ninety of George Galphin's slaves sought their freedom from Campbell and were escorted to Savannah. Campbell
If Kettle Creek ensured the continued independence of upper Georgia, Briar Creek meant that the lower part of the state returned to British rule. Campbell named Lieutenant Colonel James Mark Prevost acting governor until Sir James Wright's arrival. Campbell then took passage for England, having succeeded in his pledge to remove a star from the American flag. General Benjamin Lincoln marched his Continentals to Augusta to support the organization of civil government there, whereupon General Augustine Prevost threatened an attack upon Charleston, drawing Lincoln down with all haste. A Whig Government in Augusta On July 10, 1779,
In October
In the most controversial action of his short-lived administration, Governor Walton dispatched a letter to Congress asking for the second removal of General Lachlan McIntosh from Georgia. McIntosh had returned to the state during the summer to take charge of Georgia's Continental forces, but he resided at the house of a suspected Tory, Andrew McLean. The Assembly passed the resolution, but the Speaker, William Glascock, left Augusta before the clerk transcribed the letter. Walton never denied signing Glascock's name, and he sent another letter under his own name. However, Wereat and other friends of McIntosh's would later carry on an acrimonious investigation of the "forged letter" incident. The radical faction dominated the new Assembly that met in January 1780. The delegates elected Richard Howley governor and delegate to Congress. The Assembly enacted legislation providing for the rapid growth of the backcountry, including a commission government for Augusta, a new town to be named Washington in Wilkes County, and generous land grants for entrepreneurs who would construct ironworks, grist mills, and sawmills. Howley and Walton traveled as delegates to Philadelphia, and George Wells, president of the executive council, acted as governor. The irascible Wells soon became embroiled in a quarrel with Major James Jackson, a friend of John Wereat's. They fought a duel, and Wells died. Thus the two leaders of the radical faction in Georgia, Gwinnett and Wells, were killed in duels. They launched Georgia, however, on a democratic course that had lasting effects on the state's history. The Siege of Savannah Governor Sir James Wright
D'Estaing demanded the surrender of Savannah on September 16, but General Augustine Prevost asked for twenty-four hours to give an answer. During that day, Lieutenant Colonel John Maitland
On October 9, 1779, the allies launched a grand assault upon the British lines and suffered 752 casualties, while the British defenders lost only 18 killed and 39 wounded. Count Casimir Pulaski, a Polish nobleman who had volunteered to fight for the cause of liberty, died at the head of the men he led. Sergeant William Jasper, the hero of the 1776 Battle of Fort Moultrie, also died. The battered French army withdrew to its ships, and Benjamin Lincoln's troops returned to Charleston. The Fall of Charleston Encouraged by the British defense of Savannah, General Sir Henry Clinton brought his army down from New York, made Tybee Island his base, and began the siege of Charleston. Lincoln failed to escape when he might have, and surrendered the city and its defenders on May 12, 1780. Clinton then returned to New York, leaving General Lord Cornwallis in charge of the subjugation of the South. Cornwallis sent units to take command of the backcountry posts, including Augusta, Camden, and Ninety-Six. Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Brown assumed command in Augusta. On July 10, 1780, the Royal Council in Savannah declared that peace had been restored in Georgia, and so it seemed, with a British garrison in Savannah under Lieutenant Colonel Alured Clarke, and British posts in the backcountry. Some Whigs refused to surrender, however, and sought refuge in the mountain country. Two Battles of Augusta Unfortunately for the cause of peace, gangs of marauders roamed the region between Savannah and Augusta.
Clarke beat a hasty retreat to North Carolina, hounded by Indians and loyalists. Cornwallis dispatched a force of loyalists under Lieutenant Colonel Patrick Ferguson to cut off Clarke's band. Instead, Clarke's friends from the mountains swarmed down under their own leaders, caught Ferguson on Kings Mountain, and scored a decisive victory on October 7, 1780. Clarke's raid upon Augusta triggered the events that led to Kings Mountain. Alarmed by the resurgence of the Whigs under leaders like Clarke, Benjamin Few, and John Twiggs,
Whig Government Restored For the first time in more than a year, the scattered members of the legislature reassembled in Augusta on August 17 and elected Nathan Brownson governor for the remainder of the year. General Greene authorized the creation of 100 horse and 100 foot under the title of the "Georgia State Legion" with Lieutenant Colonel James Jackson in command. On January 9, 1782, Greene dispatched Brigadier General Anthony Wayne to Georgia with a regiment of dragoons. General Wayne conducted a war of attrition against the British defenders of Savannah. Andrew Pickens carried the war to the Cherokees and John Twiggs's Georgians fought against the Creeks. On January 2, 1782,
Governor Wright bitterly criticized the British military for not supporting the royal cause in Georgia. On June 4, 1782, he staged an elaborate celebration in Savannah to honor the king's birthday and to keep up the spirits of Georgia loyalists. On June 14, 1782, however, Wright received orders from General Sir Guy Carleton to evacuate Savannah. Thomas Brown had recruited a new regiment of rangers, and on May 19, skirmished with Lieutenant Colonel James Jackson's Legion in the marshes outside Savannah. At Wright's request, Brown had sent a last, desperate appeal to the Upper Creeks to come to his aid. On June 23, the noted Creek leader Emistisiguo fought through the American lines to reach Savannah. Though most of his band joined Brown, Emistisiguo was killed. The Evacuation of Savannah The British evacuated Savannah on July 11, 1782. Lieutenant Colonel James Jackson had the honor of leading Wayne's victorious troops into the city. Governor Martin convened the Georgia Assembly in Savannah on July 13, 1782. As many as 2,000 white Georgians and twice that number of blacks resettled in British East Florida. About 400 whites and 5,000 blacks migrated to Jamaica, where Sir Archibald Campbell, who had restored Georgia to the crown, served as governor. The loyalists in Florida had hardly settled to their new life when they learned that the peace treaty of 1783 returned Florida to Spain. There occurred another mass migration to the Bahamas, Jamaica, and the other islands of the West Indies, as well as to Great Britain. On January 7, 1783, the Georgia General Assembly elected Lyman Hall governor. John Twiggs, now raised to the rank of general in the Georgia militia, and Elijah Clarke continued to harass the Cherokee and Creek Indians to insure the possession of land, the great object of the revolution for many Georgians. News of the signing of the preliminary peace treaty reached Savannah in late May 1783 and caused a general celebration. The newly independent state of Georgia, though poor in every other respect, claimed a virtual empire of territory reaching to the Mississippi River. The Georgians' immediate problem consisted in their inability to convince the Creek Indians, who actually possessed the land, of Georgia's right to this empire.

I believe it is imporstant, but not necessarily the most important. A good sex life can enhance a relationship, especially when each of the participants are open and honest about what they like. Being a friend, and listening is VERY important, took me several relationships to figure that one out, lol.
by Steelhamster
Not the most important thing, but it is important in order to make more secure with your partner. It is important. It helps other lines of communication. If you can't have a good sex life I believe you cant have much else good in a relationship. If you can't be open abut the most intamate part of your relationship what can you be open about? All types of intimacy are important - talking, laughing, physical closeness, and sex. Not for me. But then, I'm not entirely human... We have always suspected as much Truth :p

see how long your relationship will last without it, not long I think it brings a couple closer together. No, sex is pointless. i know what sex is, i get it all of the time but,..what's a "relationship"? Technically, sex with ones hand, doesnt really count as sex Spanky. ;-)
by Steelhamster
you mean like i have a relationship with my hand? oh no no no. *I* have the relationship with your hand. :) Technically, sex with one's hand doesnt really count as sex. It's way better because you don't need to get physically close to another person. VERY. but it's making love with the one person that i know beyond a doubt really loves me... That's up to you. not really. hells yes its important! |

Update: Timeline of Entergy Power Restoration
By: KARK 4 News
Updated: December 29, 2012
On its social media accounts, Entergy Arkansas released the following updated restoration timeline:
- Saturday: the areas in and around Conway, Cabot, Searcy.
- Sunday: the areas in and around Benton, Bryant, Mt. Ida, Glenwood and Jacksonville.
- Tuesday: the areas in and around, Little Rock, Maumelle, western Grant County, Carthage, Hot Springs and Malvern.
If power is restored to your area or you remain in the dark, you can tweet us with updates and questions at @kark4news.
Friday, 10 a.m. Update:
Entergy posted the following message on its Facebook page updating the timeline of power restoration:
- Today in the areas in and around Conway and Cabot.
- Tomorrow in the areas in and around Blytheville, Searcy and Augusta/McCrory.
- By Sunday in the areas in and around Benton and Bryant, Carthage, Mt. Ida, Dallas County, Glenwood, Montgomery County and Pike County.
- By Tuesday in the areas in and around Little Rock, western Grant County, Hot Springs/Malvern, Clark County and Garland County.
Restoration work is ongoing across all affected areas of Arkansas, and we expect to make significant progress restoring power to customers in areas where the storm caused less damage to our electrical system. We are monitoring some additional weather currently entering affected areas today which may may hamper efforts. However, there are no delays currently.
The 4,000 extra workers requested to help Entergy Arkansas employees restore electricity are either on site or en route from 15 states to the affected areas. Contributing states include: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas.
Original Story:
Crews continue to work to bring the lights back on for roughly 130,000 Arkansans still in the dark Friday morning. About 112,000 of those without power are Entergy customers.
Entergy released an updated timeline Thursday evening for power restoration:
Workers hoped to restore power to Pine Bluff, Stuttgart, Lonoke, Marion, Wynne, Morrilton and Forrest City by the end of Thursday. Customers in the Conway, Cabot and Jacksonville areas should expect power fully restored by Friday.
Customers in the Blytheville, Searcy and Augusta/McCrory areas should have power by Saturday.
Entergy Arkansas expects the lights back on by Sunday for customers in and around Benton and Bryant, Carthage, Mt. Ida, Dallas County, Glenwood, Montgomery County and Pike County.
For the hardest hit areas - Little Rock, western Grant County, Hot Springs/Malvern, Clark County and Garland County - restoration could take as long as seven or more days, but most customers will be restored sooner.

Encouraging voluntary employee actions around sustainability is important. People feel good and feel more motivated when they are making a voluntary contribution to a cause. However there are limits to what completely voluntary action can accomplish. Most employees are reviewed each year accoridng to how well they acheive their stated annual goals. What if employees were encouraged to include one goal that related to how they were going to help their company be more sustainable? They would still have the freedom to choose a meaningful goal for them (like volunteering on the green team or reducing business travel or commuting by bus one day a week), but this approach would signal to both the employee and the manager that sustainability is valued by the company. And -- here's where the social media comes into this idea -- these goals could be shared via the company's intranet or other appropriate internal social media channel. Employees could view the goals colleagues were choosing and post their own.

In its blog posting, Consumer Reports indicated that it has had other bad Karma experiences. "We encountered other problems with a Karma press car that visited the track for a few hours, and we have heard of problems at press events," the blog stated. "In addition, we see that some owners are experiencing a variety of issues, as evidenced by forums, such as FiskerBuzz.com."
The incident is bad news for Fisker, which took a hit late last year when it revealed that it was building its luxury plug-in hybrid in Finland, after being awarded a $528.7 million Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing (ATVM) loan from the US Department of Energy. In a statement issued last year after receiving the loans, Fisker said the money was used to create jobs in the United States and "not a single dollar of the DoE loans has been, or will be, spent outside of America."
The Karma is a luxury plug-in hybrid that operates on the same principal as the Chevy Volt. Its patented EVer powertrain uses a 20.1kWh lithium-ion battery pack and 336V electrical architecture to get a 50-mile all-electric driving range. Its two-liter, direct injection, four-cylinder engine gives the Karma a total range of 300 miles.
Champion says the public shouldn't judge plug-in hybrid technology based on this incident alone. Consumer Reports has tested Chevy Volts for over a year without a technical incident, he told us. "It's just really difficult for a startup company on its first car to get everything right. But this is a little bit beyond that."
The original version of this story stated that Fisker used its US Department of Energy loan to fund production of the Karma automobile in Finland. It did not. Design News regrets the error.

Tibet Tours
- Lhasa
- Gyantse

A jewel in the Himalayas and one of several thorns in the side of China's rulers, Tibet is massive, exotic, and culturally under siege.

In the shadow of Everest the Tibetan people have developed a gentle, mysterious culture, and visitors find a country lined with stupas and adorned with fluttering prayer flags. Everywhere the influence of Tibetan Buddhism can be seen, from old Tibetans spinning prayer wheels to 1300 year-old Lhasa and its otherworldly Potala Palace, home to Dalai Lamas past. The capital's name means, literally, "Holy Land," and it certainly is.

Joplin Community Service Center History
By: Shayla Patrick
Updated: February 28, 2013
"Also, this building served as the downtown Center for Nutrition. The Area Agency on Aging used this center years ago until 4 years back to feed the seniors in downtown Joplin," says Jim West, Community Activist.
Much like Joplin's rich history, this building has evolved over time as well. Renovations in the early 90's knocked down a wall, expanding the service center so it can continue to serve the community today.
"We rent it out to anyone who wants to use it for a wedding reception or any type of gathering," says West.
Nearly a dozen member organizations in the community regularly use this facility. Although the building is now owned and governed by the "Negro Service Council Board of Directors," organizers say they are continually working to broaden its presence in the Joplin area.
"It's community oriented. That's why we call it the Community Service Center because it's not black, it's not white, it's not green, it's for everyone who wants to be apart, and we really are open to that," says West.
The Negro Service Council is a nonprofit organization that relies on donations to keep the center running. The group will hold a fundraising dance at 8 p.m. this Saturday at the service center to help raise money and awareness about its function in the community.

Hot-tempered British supermodel Naomi Campbell is furious after Cadbury mentioned her name in an ad for their newest chocolate bar. Not only is she considering "every option available," including a lawsuit, after the company used her name in the promotion, but she is accusing the ad of being racist.
The ad reads "Move over Naomi, there's a new diva in town."
Campbell released the following statement:
"I am shocked. It's upsetting to be described as chocolate, not just for me, but for all black women and black people. I do not find any humour in this. It is insulting and hurtful."
Black rights groups are on the same page as Campbell, and the UK's Operation Black Vote has called for a Cadbury boycott, and one member of the organization added that "Racism in the playground starts with black children being called 'chocolate bar.'"
As for Cadbury, the company is doing damage control, saying that while the ad was "a light-hearted take on the social pretensions of Cadbury Dairy Milk Bliss" it will not be in circulation after this week.
What do you think, Lovelies? Is Campbell playing the race card, or does she have a valid point? [via Independent UK, HuffPost]

Local Students Aim for Peace
By: Tim Johnston
Updated: January 15, 2009
The students and several college ministers involved in the Bethlehem Initiative are working to bring peace to the Middle East by selling t-shirts made in Bethlehem.
The idea is, by using a t-shirt manufacturer from there, they will be able to give their economy a boost which may help bring stability to the region. They say even here in Abilene, we can look for solutions for peace.
"Everyone knows the problems, so we were just thinking how can we provide some solutions to bring peace and prosperity to that region of the world," says Tim Palmer of the Bethlehem Initiative. "It's just been wrecked by violence for so long."
Shirts can be purchased online (click here) or at McMurry University for $16.

Thanks but no, thanks. I just moved from that brand. Among others, their crappy Samba v3.2.8 has been causing AD compatibility nightmares and generally horrible performance with the 2008 R2 domain controller and all those W7 clients.
Frankly - back to basics, next time instead of NAS we are going to build our own boxes for the purpose. Those will not have any fancy management GUI but at least you can install whatever you want on them easily.

Must-See Mountain Attractions
Magnificent waterfalls, breathtaking views and natural wonders fill the mountain region. Start planning your trip to take in the sights and experience a variety of our most sought after views with this list of must-see places.
At 411 feet, Whitewater Falls is the highest waterfall in the eastern United States
Visit one of our more than 300 waterfalls
North Carolina is home to more than 300 waterfalls, many in Brevard or Transylvania County in the Blue Ridge Mountains. If you start in the small town of Sapphire, you can venture out along Whitewater Way. The byway winds through the southern section of the Nantahala National Forest, which is home to Whitewater Falls, the highest waterfall east of the Rocky Mountains. If you're near Highlands, check out Dry Falls, which has one very unique characteristic - you can walk behind it, along the ledge obstructed from the outside by its powerful waters.
Wind along the Blue Ridge Parkway
Whether you want to take in spectacular scenery, incredible views and overlooks, or get out of the car and onto the hiking trail, the Blue Ridge Parkway is for you. Connecting the Great Smoky Mountains National Park to the Shenandoah National Park in Virginia, the parkway offers 469 miles of year-round color to enjoy and quaint small towns to explore. You will always discover something new along America's Favorite Drive.
Reach the top of Looking Glass Rock
Although this rock face is one of the most popular sport climbing destinations in North Carolina, a very walkable trail makes the view overlooking the Blue Ridge Parkway accessible to nearly everyone. The well-marked Looking Glass Rock Trail is a visitor favorite and ascends about 1,700 feet in slightly more than three miles. When you complete the hike, you will arrive at Upper Looking Glass Cliffs where you can take in views of Mount Pisgah, Graveyard Fields and other nearby peaks.
See and smell the rhododendron on Roan Mountain
In Carver's Gap along the North Carolina-Tennessee line, rhododendron season peaks in the early summer, and vibrant pink blooms spread completely over the high ridge that is Roan Mountain. Although these flowers are not uncommon, in a good year, these particularly dense plants can stand taller than a person and cover acres of terrain. You can experience these blooms in the Rhododendron Garden in the Recreation Area or on Round Bald, visible from Carver's Gap.
Experience The Blowing Rock
The Blowing Rock is our state's oldest attraction. It is an immense cliff that offers views of Grandfather Mountain, Table Rock and Hawskbill Mountain after only a short scenic walk to its rocky face. The wind along the cliff blows up from the valley below causing snow and rain to fall upside down. Legend has it that a gust of wind returned a lost lover to a grief-stricken Chickasaw maiden many years ago and that is when the wind began perpetually blowing upward.
Climb Chimney Rock
Chimney Rock is located near magnificent Lake Lure, and offers sweeping views and climbing options for everyone. Take on the more than 400 stairs from the parking lot, or ride the elevator up a 26-story shaft blasted through solid granite. Regardless of how you get there, the top of Chimney Rock will not disappoint you. You will overlook Hickory Nut Gorge and Lake Lure, and on a clear day you might be able to see Kings Mountain nearly 75 miles to the east. You can also enjoy hiking, bird-watching or rock climbing while you're at the park.
Spot the Shadow of the Bear
Discover this naturally occurring phenomenon, which happens only twice a year in the spring and fall, when the bear-like shadow comes out of hibernation and casts his shadow onto Whiteside Mountain. If you're interested in seeing The Bear, the best viewing spot is right off of Highway 64 in a place called the "Rhodes Big View Overlook." Contact the Jackson County Visitors Center or Cashiers Area Travel and Tourism for more information on how to time your visit just right.
Visit Great Smoky Mountains National Park
As the nation's most-visited park, Great Smoky Mountains National Park has something for everyone. With more than 800 miles of hiking trails, hundreds of miles of horse trails, 700 miles of fishable streams and ample opportunity for wildlife viewing, the most difficult decision will be what to do first. Recommended stops include Clingman's Dome, Fontana Dam, Newfound Gap, and the beautiful drive through Cades Cove. Let the Smokies Trip Planner help you map out your adventure.
Explore DuPont State Forest
Encompassing 10,300 acres spanning Henderson and Transylvania counties, DuPont State Forest is home to many beautiful waterfalls, lakes and other scenic attractions. Some of the Forest's most popular attractions include taking in the beauty of Triple Falls and Bridal Veil Falls, and hiking along Cedar Rock Mountain and Stone Mountain. The forest is in the Little River Valley and is open year round to visitors.
