A 19-year-old from The Woodlands was killed when a pickup crashed into her car on Interstate 12 in Slidell, La., according to the Associated Press.
State Police say Kristen Stoltman, of The Woodlands, was driving a small Mazda eastbound around 6 p.m. Friday when traffic slowed near exit 80. Stoltman was killed on impact when a Dodge pickup driven by Kevin Greenwood of Ormond Beach, Fla., failed to slow down and struck her vehicle from behind.
Greenwood was charged with negligent homicide, careless operation and negligent injuring. He was booked into the St. Tammany Parish Jail.
According to the Times-Picayune, a passenger in Stoltman's vehicle, Jesse Stoltman, of Magnolia, sustained serious injuries and was transported to an area hospital.

Itching for a new Sprint handset, but your upgrade date is still a ways off? You might be in luck, as a newly-leaked Sprint document has shown that the carrier is offering some customers an early upgrade. According to the doc sent to SprintFeed, there's a silent promotion running now through December 31st that'll allow some Premier customers to upgrade early to any CDMA handset in the Now Network's lineup, including the iPhone. The deal is said to be only available at corporate-owned stores, and before earning the upgrade you'll need to have your account reviewed by a sales representative for specific promo codes.
Sounds like a pretty good deal to me, especially considering that Sprint Premier is going the way of the dinosaur and most of the benefits of program are ending once the year is up. If you'd like to see if you're eligible for an early upgrade, mosey on down to your local (corporate!) Sprint store and ask your friendly rep to look into the promo. Just don't forget to come back and let us know how it went when you're done, k?

Thanks to Zebba's article, I learned more about Anna Wildikann
Dear Dr. Sam Zebba,
You are the first author ever from whom I've heard more about Anna Wildikann than from any other (ESRA Magazine #152, Dec 2009/Jan 2010, p. 62-65). I am researching her life as well as that of other Jewish doctors and nurses who worked with Albert Schweitzer during WWII. My impression is that he did not regard the cause of their plight and fate as high rank priority - he almost never referred to this issue after 1945 when he could have. Anna Wildikann´s immigration to Israel and the way he mentioned her in his diaries has struck me as casual - perhaps it was only discreet. But also the story of his wife's Jewish family did not seem to occupy large space in his concerns. I might be wrong – I'd just like to know more and better. Now, I wonder whether you know who inherited Anna Wildikann's pictures, her writings etc. and how I might get in touch with whoever it may be. Sorry for being so forthright about my scepticism regarding Schweitzer. My deep impression is that he could have and should have been more outspoken about Germany's barbaric history after 1945. Few people have spoken up about this so far, especially in Germany. I, born in 1958, have been conducting research on this whole issue since 1990. I hope one day to publish my findings and I am grateful for any additional information.

In the article Queens in a Jeep (ESRA Magazine #158, Feb/Mar 2011, page 39), the first column, the first sentence should read: "One of the five major circles of latitude that map the Earth, 66033' north of the Equator, defines the Arctic Circle."

Keeping the Kibbutz – a film
I'm a US-based documentary filmmaker who recently produced a documentary film, entitled Keeping the Kibbutz. The film chronicles the changing Israeli kibbutz through the eyes of some of its most devoted members. While some members faced hardship, others found opportunity, and the kibbutz marched toward an inevitable end.
A story about nostalgia, the effects of communal living and the hope for what lies ahead, Keeping the Kibbutz captures the lingering ghost of a movement now celebrating its 100th anniversary. DVD screeners of the film are available for review and both directors (myself and Israeli-born Ben Crosbie) are available for interviews. You can view a trailer and learn more about the film at www.keepingthekibbutz.com.

I hasten to put pen to paper having just arrived home from the ESRA Insight meeting held in Raanana for all those interested from every ESRA branch.
The meeting was a real eye-opener as the new groups told us about their achievements – which are truly remarkable. It was socially enjoyable meeting old faces and seeing so many new ones from all over Israel.
There used to be regular branch meetings and these are sorely missed. Please could they be reintroduced – three or four times a year would suffice, giving the volunteers a new "insight" more often into ESRA achievements, therefore giving a boost to their efforts.
Thank you for today's meeting which was well organized, and good luck to all those ESRA volunteers.

Mikveh for vessels? or How to divide the community further?
This essay (ESRA Magazine #158, Feb/Mar/2011) is a perfect example of "How to divide the community further". I get a distinct feeling that Mr Abrahams has a personal agenda in that he needs to criticize the orthodox section of our community. I believe he has not researched his "facts". He makes statements which show that his knowledge of our laws, customs and practices is rather limited. For instance his statement about the rabbis telling the bochrim to only eat Glatt Kosher meat when they go home, when I have found the opposite to be true. The respect for parents is and has been one of the most important commandments that we have to keep. I believe the rabbis in the yeshivas emphasize this kind of commandment.
It is articles such as these that are actually the cause of divisiveness. In these times when we have a worldwide media onslaught against Israel and the Jewish nation, this is not the kind of article we need.
I believe we need to try and find ways of bringing all Jews together as one nation. It does not matter if one is orthodox or not, we need to take positive cohesive steps and make suggestions as to how to improve our behavior towards each other, and to publicize our common beliefs and values, and not where we differ. After all we have one Torah for all of us. If it was not for the Torah there would not be any Jews, or land of Israel.
A humorous side, Dunk Street is an apt name for where the Mikveh is located!

More about Danish
It was good to read Geoff Tollman's article (ESRA Magazine #158, Feb/Mar/2011, p.26) especially about the 60's in Israel when he started his Danish furniture business. I was one of his first employees. We were neighbors in Beit Yannai and when he asked me to join the company I did so willingly but with a certain amount of trepidation. Those were really thrilling times but since we were not living in any kind of luxury at the time, to be a part of such an innovative and creative enterprise was magic.
I also learned a great deal from him and the architects and designers whom he had on board, which stood me in good stead for the rest of my life.

Passing on ESRA magazines brought joy to my life
l read a letter in the Nov/Dec issue of the ESRA Magazine from Sybil Sadowski, stating that she disposes of old issues of the amazing, fantastic ESRA Magazines!
l appeal to everyone, "DON'T DO THIS!" It's because somebody gave me one of her old copies that l first heard about ESRA. Then l passed on one of my old copies, and that person started the wonderful ESRA branch in Nahariya. So you never know where your copies might lead, in addition to helping people through the incredible articles and information and hopefully inspiring them to join the ESRA family like l did, which has brought so much joy into my life. So please, keep passing them on!

Plants for sale
Hannah's ESRA Nursery, although officially closed, still has many plants for sale. Most are for the garden, therefore requiring little water. Some however, are for pots or tubs, some for sun, some for shade. In pots, all plants require water, but not copious quantities. We have a small selection of plants very suitable for small gifts, this includes a few cymbidium orchids.
The bulk of the plants must be sold by mid-May, when the weather starts to heat up seriously.
The nursery is in Moshav Ein Vered, and I can be reached at 052 306 4113.

Pride and Prejudice in Wadi Ara
Many thanks for yet another wonderful issue of the ESRA Magazine (#158) which is full of fascinating and relevant articles.
I was particularly moved by Lydia Aisenberg's article "Pride and Prejudice in Wadi Ara" which tells the story of Arab Israeli Muslim citizens who have died whilst serving in the IDF or Border Police. I can only imagine the difficulties faced by Yousef Jujah whose son Sa'id fell in the line of duty in Gaza whilst fighting Palestinian terrorists. He and his family deserve the respect of us all for their brave stand which has been made at great personal cost.

The South African Machalniks and Telfed
Reading Maurice Ostroff's interesting article "Machal Story Online" (ESRA Magazine #158, Feb/Mar 2011) with anecdotes from the period of Aliyah Bet on, made me think that the non-South African ESRA readers might be interested in the following story: I worked at the South African Zionist Federation (Telfed) on 109 Hayarkon Street from 1954 for a year or so, and lived at the South African Hostel in Yad Eliyahu which had just opened. I think that both the congenial place of work and a wonderful place to stay helped make my absorption into Israel so smooth. But only very recently my husband Mike, who came to Israel with Machal from the States in1948, told me how envious the American Machalniks were of those from South Africa who were warmly welcomed at the Fed which had a clubroom where they could have something to eat. He also remembered that the South African soldiers received five lira on top of the five they got from the army and added: "I think that is maybe why so many South Africans stayed on after the war or came back later to settle."

Thirty years later a complete success
Thirty years ago, Dr. Michael Adler operated on my badly broken Achilles tendon at Leeuwendaal Hospital, Cape Town, South Africa. It was a complete success from day one, and now, 30 years on, it is as good as the day he repaired it. I know Dr. Adler has left SA, and he probably won't remember even doing it, but if you do know his whereabouts, please pass on my profound thanks for what he did all those years ago.

Tribute to Alec Sadowsky
I would like to add a few words regarding the tributes to the late Alec Sadowsky that have appeared in recent ESRA Magazines.
Many years ago I had to go to the income tax offices. I can't remember about what, but it was obviously something about my tax payments. (I had a secondhand bookshop in those days). A hefty woman in her mid-40s, with a strong jaw and sharp gimlet eyes which seemed to pierce through me, received me in her office. 'Well', she barked, 'what is it?'
In my hesitant Hebrew I started my explanations, but she interrupted me.
'Who is your accountant?'
'Alec Sadowsky', I said.
The most amazing transformation came over her face. 'Ah, Mr. Sadowsky', she said quietly, and the rest of our talk was conducted in a far more cordial atmosphere.
Alec was one of those wonderful people whom everyone knew he could trust and rely on completely – even the toughest of income tax inspectors.

Walk for HaBayit Shel Benji – building has started!
As I stand in HaPrachim Street in Raanana and watch the tractors moving the mounds of sand, I have feelings of pride and sadness. I am proud that with the support of the community here and abroad, HaBayit Shel Benji - Benji's Home for lone soldiers - is now being built. This home will be named in memory of my nephew, the late Major Benji Hillman, who was killed in the Second Lebanon War, so the sadness does not have to be explained. Benji worked tirelessly on behalf of lone soldiers and HaBayit Shel Benji will continue his legacy of helping the soldiers who need it the most.
Our fundraising efforts now have a different focus. We need to ensure there are funds for everything that is required for the home, and then its maintenance. The 5th annual community walk for HaBayit Shel Benji will be taking place on Friday May 20 in Raanana, so please save the date. Great Shape will be providing a warm-up before the walk, and we hope many members of ESRA will join us once again for a morning out in rural Raanana. More details will be on our website shortly (www.benjihillman.org) or you can email email@example.com.

Hey Folks,
I would imagine that there isn't too many still walking around with a PDA. Better yet, how many people even remember what a PDA is? Do you remember the Palm Pilot?
Well here's a little story…
Once upon a time, long long ago (at least in terms of computing) back in 1986, the very first portable hand held electronic device know as Personal Digital Assistants or PDAs was released upon the public.
These devices were designed to get rid of those old fashioned paper day planners in which you would right down all your appointments and important contacts. And perhaps, if you were so inclined, you would also annotate your own personal information (just in case someone found your day planner – they could return it) and other important information like account numbers and pins.
So these PDAs were able to perform all the same functions as a paper day planner or organizer, but just not as easily or conveniently.
They often included such functions as:
- Appointment calendar
- A to-do list (everyone loves a "to-do" list!)
- An address book
- A Calculator (a very novel idea indeed)
- A memo or "note" program.
These PDA's would save infinite amounts of time required every year copying all the information over from last years planner. From the busy executive to the average stay at home mom, this was manna from heaven not to mention digital efficiency at its finest. Perfect organization; never again late for an appointment; and no more forgetting important dates like birthdays or anniversaries.
At first, you needed a little stick, known as a stylus, to write on the PDA's glass screen in order to input your information. These PDAs tried to recognize your handwriting, but as you could probably guess, it never worked as well as writing on paper. After all, half the time we can't even read our own writing, how in the world is a computer going to read it!
So a virtual keyboard was designed that would appear on the screen and you would tap each virtual key one at a time with your little stick to input your data. Of course this took forever, but at least once that data was put in, you never had to input it again.
Then, a brilliant engineer came up with the idea of adding button onto the face of the PDA in order to facilitate data entry. It didn't take very long until a full mini keyboard was included on the front of the PDAs to streamline data entry.
Everything was going along just fine until one day someone realized that they were carrying both a cell phone and a PDA. And, as luck would have it, the cell phone had many of the same features as the PDA including contacts and the ever present, tool for all occasions: A Calculator.
So again, one day, another brilliant engineer came up with the idea of combining the PDA and the cell phone. After many years of careful thought, a new device was created to replace the cell phone and the PDA. This device was called the Smart Phone!
Today, it is very hard indeed to find a mere cell phone or a PDA… They are all but extinct. However, it is equally rare to find someone without a Smart Phone. These Smart Phones can now browse the internet, send personal messages, play music, and even play games for hours on end.
Of course Smart Phones can still make phone calls, create a "to-do" list, be used as a calculator, contain an appointment calendar, and create a memo… however they just don't perform these functions very well. Many times, instead of using your Smart Phone, we still use the old fashioned methods of paper and pen for data functions. And if you want to make a quality phone call where you can actually hear the other person talk, it's often best not to use your cell phone.
So although PDAs, and now Smart Phones, have not made us any more efficient or less likely to forget an important birthday or anniversary, there is a high likelihood that you did try to input some important sensitive information into that old PDA or even a new Smart Phone.
If that is the case, it might be worth while to get that old PDA shredded to make sure none of that information falls into the wrong hands.
Until next time…
Keep Totally Secure!

My life, my blog
September 15th 2001 I made what, even to this day 5 years later, was the hardest decision of my life. Four days after the world trade center attack, when the entire nation was still in shock, and everyone ( I believe) was beginning to reevaluate what was important in their life, I made the decision to leave my husband of 3 1/2 years. I feel tonight as though I must write about it and not let this date go unmarked. September 11th, I'm sorry to say, changed my life for the better, although I feel an overwhelming sadness in thinking that so many suffered and died, it woke us all up. As it was that night, tonight I sit typing late into the night unable to sleep, but thankful for different reasons. Tonight is the night I have to say once again, John I love you and thank you for taking me as I am and loving me in return, and for giving me more than I ever knew I needed in the form of two energetic boys.
I should be sleeping, but I just got Rowan back in bed. He had a night terror, you know the ones like nightmares except they don't wake up from them. I hate those because its hard to soothe when they really aren't even with you, and if you try to truly wake him, it makes it worst. Sometime because his eyes might be open you might think he's are awake and just scared, but he's not. He cries and cough that scared crying hiccupy cough, and I'll think that he just has a dry throat, but then I get him water and he doesn't see it, pushes it away, doesn't want it. So I hold him, he struggles at first, but soon he settles down and we rock. 5-10 minutes later he's relaxed under my cheek his breathing is clam and normal again, and I am left just thinking.

Winemaker's Notes:
ORGANICThe essence of great-tasting vodka lies in its clean taste, soft flavor and delicacy. Here at Square One, we are joining the many mixologists that are working to raise the bar (so to speak) in the cocktail arena. Devoted to culinary-style cocktails, our sole mission is to create innovative organic spirits with an eco-conscious mindset. Square One Cucumber is crafted by combining the essence of organic cucumber with original certified organic American rye vodka. To keep cucumber's fresh aroma, we applied the same skills used to capture the aromatics of flowers and plants in natural fragrances. The result is a deliciously aromatic spirit that imparts the delicate and fresh taste of cucumber.For a cool, light yet effortless indulgence, try Square One Cucumber and tonic with a twist of lime.
External Reviews for Square One Cucumber Vodka

Will Vatican probe of abuse scandal look into overall health of Irish Church?
October 08, 2010
Writing in the Irish Herald, Garry O'Sulivan, the editor of the Irish Catholic follows up on his earlier suggestion that the Irish bishops have sought to limit the scope of an apostolic visitation into the Irish Church, but Vatican officials have resisted their efforts. O'Sullivan argues that the Vatican investigation will look beyond sex-abuse complaints in search of an underlying cause:
The Vatican believes that the culture that set into the Irish church in the 1960s onwards weakened the faith in Ireland and led to a loss of respect for the Church and its teachings. The investigators will want to look at this.If O'Sullivan's analysis is on target, the inquiry in Ireland could prove to be a turning point in the Church's worldwide struggle to address the scandal, perhaps leading to the overdue recognition that the sex-abuse crisis is not an isolated problem but a symptom of a wider disease.
Further information:
- Vatican investigation may well change the Church as we know it (Herald)
- Irish bishops working to limit scope of apostolic visitation? (CWN, 10/7)

Happy New Year to you PFL! I hope you had an amazing holiday season. Even having to work most of the time you all were on break, I was truly blessed to spend time with family and friends on Christmas day.
I am super excited to get this year started with you. I have a pretty good handle on who my PFL audience is after sharing time with you for four years. My goal this year is to really reach you with the material that you desire.
Rather than share a bucket list or resolution roll call, I'm choosing to focus on one word again as I've done in the past. My word for 2017 is fearless.
fearless – without the feeling or condition of being afraid.
Fear can be a super sized strong hold on your dreams. I have wasted enough time in relationships, fitness, and in my career with fear for my entire PFL audience. I have let fear hold me back on several occasions. When I've finally mustered up the courage to move forward with change or something new, it never disappointed me. Guess what tho, I still struggle with fear!
That's the thing, it will always be there. I am not encouraging you to ignore it all together because sometimes it is with good reason that you are fearful. I am simply sharing that when you want to move forward, you can probably do so fearlessly if you walk through a few steps along the way.
Research – The first step would be to do your research. Often times we have dreams, but we don't even know the work that goes into those dreams.
Prepare – Once you have done the research, you need to get your house in order. This could be in the form of education, finances, spiritual warfare, etc.
Be Positive – After you've set the foundation and you take the plunge, you will have people around you who try to discourage you from your dreams. You need to stay positive and have positive affirmations ready to say to yourself and prepare your responses for the haters as well.
Persevere – Lastly, just because you did all the ground work and remained positive doesn't mean you will not come across barriers. You have to be steadfast in the mist of storms of trouble. You may have to adapt your pathway to achieve the goal, but as long as you achieve the goal, that's all that matters.
These steps have helped me; get out of relationships, start my blog, become a group fitness instructor and more. I hope that it can inspire you in some way as we kick off the new year!
Yours in Healthy, Active, & Prosperous Lifestyles,
Rx Fitness Lady wants to know…
- What is your word for 2017?
- How do you manage your fears?
- How was your New Year?

I've heard and repeated many times, "Hire a teenager while they still know everything."
When it comes to trends – they do.
A study conducted by the Pew Internet & American Life Project found that teens are now flocking to Twitter, while leaving some of the early building blocks of social media behind.
As we saw with MySpace, we are now seeing with Facebook. Once the demographics begin to skew older – or should I say that once mom and dad figure out how to monitor their children's' activities on such platforms, teens find a new place go to.
Martha Irvine of the Associated Press reports teen usage of Twitter has climbed to 16 percent – up from just eight percent two years ago.
I'm sure there is something "cool" about being on Twitter before the onslaught of teens – but I'm not sure what it is.
I have never heard "Hire a teenager while they still know everything," nor would I listen to it. Maybe we know different teenagers? I do agree that teens are the hippest, most up-to-date on pop culture news…but being up to date doesn't mean "they know everything". I think it should be "they know everything on page 6". Trends are important in this industry, but just because something is trendy doesn't mean its pop culture or of interest to teens – business, politics, world issues- lots of trends to be followed there as well. Luckily for HMA there are enough reality TV obsessed, tabloid reading, celebrity stalkers working here to keep us in the entertainment trend loop.
So once Twitter loses its cool factor and becomes saturated with Gen Xers, will the teens (finally) flock to G+?
Steph, my perspective comes from being around teen-agers who try to lead me to believe they already know everything….
Oh well that is certainly true! But if a business professional told me that, I would tell them to get them right out of college if they need someone up on the trends. That way they might be able to do other things, too.
I agree Steph. 1) I have never heard that saying. 2) That's just not true. Teenagers are surely not the first to hit anything- Facebook started with college students and if Twitter is just now getting big with teens, well they're behind the times. Sure they have their parents cash to fund their obsessions (which is why marketing/America helped create the image of a teenager) but in no way would I ever take advice on new trends from a teenager. I stopped shopping at Hollister for a reason.
Haha was that the reason? Not the blaring music or the fact that a size 2 is an extra large? You make a good point, teens are behind for just now getting on Twitter.
I think it is more a matter of teens vs parents more than a teen being more knowledgeable or tech savvy than an average working adult. This might have been true 10 years ago , but I think we have reached a point where the first generation of internet users (meaning those who used the internet during adolescence and essentially the first gen who knows no life w/o the web) are now in their mid to late 20s, bridging the gap between know-it-all teens and the computer illiterate.
I still get frustrated trying to show my parents how to update their iPod or explaining why not to use an AOL address, and it's the same frustration I had as a 14-year-old showing my parents the internet and trying to explain to my mom that AIM did not mean I was talking to strangers in a chat room. Younger people are more adaptable to change, so they will always be ahead of the curve in that sense. Just don't be too quick to trust a teen's judgement.
This is the generation to follow: http://www.prdaily.com/Main/Articles/10927.aspx

Al Montoya Extended With One-Year Contract
Many were left to wonder what Garth Snow would do before the start of next season for the Islanders back-up goalie position with Dwayne Roloson traded to the Tampa Bay Lightning and Rick DiPietro's health constantly in limbo. Rookies Kevin Poulin and Mikko Koskinen got their opportunities to show what they could do for the organization, but injuries and needed development were enough signs to show that Snow needed to make a move. That move came when he acquired Al Montoya from the Phoenix Coyotes for a draft pick.
Montoya immediately stepped in and at first seemed shaky in net, having to play midway through a game without getting a real start from the opening puck drop. But in almost no time, Montoya became the team's best player on the ice and has done enough to earn himself a one-year contract extension for next season.
Montoya has posted an 8-4-4 record with a 2.35 GAA and .923 save percentage in 17 games played with the Islanders this season. Originally drafted by the New York Rangers with the sixth overall pick in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft, Montoya never really received an opportunity to develop with an NHL team. The Rangers have Henrik Lundqvist, who will obviously be the team's number one goalie for many years to come. The Coyotes have Ilya Bryzgalov, who at the time was starting to emerge as one of the best keepers in the Western Conference. But they say that your third time is a charm as the Isles have become the first team he has been able to call home despite being a top-ten draft pick.
There is a good chance that Montoya will get plenty of playing time next year since DiPietro did not come anywhere close to playing half of an NHL season. Whether it be due to injuries or required maintenance by sitting on the bench, Montoya will likely get his fair share of games in DiPietro's absence. And I'll even go a step further...don't be surprised if this guy manages to steal the show from DiPietro as next season continues on.
In other news...
Big things are happening here at The Checking Line as George Prax and myself have begun assembling a New York Islanders blogging team. Evan Pivnick and Daniel Friedman are two new bloggers that will be added to the site that will provide pre-game and post-game blogs as well as additional content with the season winding down. Here is a quick look at two of TCL's newest bloggers:
Evan Pivnick:
"I'm 17 years old, and I've been an Islanders fan since I was 4 years old. Over the years, I developed a love for sports broadcasting and sports journalism. Probably because my father used to be an announcer for Minor League Baseball and my godfather is currently the beat writer for the New York Giants in the NY Post. They both were a great influence on me. After years and years of attending Islanders games, I finally developed my own website in the summer of 2010. I wrote so many articles about the Islanders' games and current events in Islanders Country. But then my website crashed and I lost everything on it. So, that's what brings me here. I'm a die hard fan of the team that's closest to my home and my heart. The New York Islanders."
Daniel Friedman:
"I've been an Islander fan for 15 years, been playing hockey since I was seven years old. I also write for Bleacher Report and The Hockey Writers. I'm likely the most optimistic (maybe too optimistic at times) Islander fan you'll ever meet. You will never see me give up on this team, no matter what happens."
Please give them a warm welcome and check out their blogs that will be posted Wednesday and be sure to follow their twitter feeds @EvanPivnickNYI and @dfriedman_isles.
Also, there will be a live blog covering the Islanders/Rangers game this Thursday night at 7PM. Make sure you stop back here at The Checking Line to join in on the chat!

Congrats Daniel and Evan....So the question that is on everyone's mind - Who is the number one goaltender for the Isles next year?
- Login to post comments
Shahab - It will definitely be DiPietro. But who knows what the season will hold for both goaltenders.
As for Nabby, that will be an interesting scenario heading into the off season as to whether Snow decides to retain his rights or let's him go.
- Login to post comments
They got DiPietro on contact for a good price - might as well keep him...Montoya is not proven at all
- Login to post comments
Where else would DiPietro go? lol. With that contract you sort of have to give him every opportunity to play. As for Nabokov, I didn't like how Snow treated that situation so if the guy says he won't play there next year I think snow should be the bigger man and just let him go wherever he wants. Montoya isn't proven but you'll never know until you give him a chance. See: Jaroslav Halak.

What Can Brown Do For Philly? Top Boston, 4-3
Drew Hallowell/Getty Images
Domonic Brown
has long been considered the best prospect in the Phillies organization. But, like many who get that tag, his progression up the major league ladder has been slower than expected. But, after he clouted four home runs in three games against the Red Sox, he may be coming into his own. Brown—with two HRs last night—lead a homer-filled Philadelphia attack against Boston pitching that resulted in
a 4-3 Red Sox loss
Jacoby Ellsbury
's 'Comeback Tour' continued with a double and a triple, but the offense (an increasing concern on this team) was just not up to snuff against a sub-par Philly starter. A ninth-inning rally again old friend
Jonathan Papelbon
fell short, and the Carmine Hose are now in danger of losing 3 of 4 to a very mediocre Philly team.

The CEO of HP told analysts yesterday that her business is on the mend.
Meg Whitman said that falls in its revenue last year will be stemmed in financial year 2013, showing some growth.
HP has suffered because it formerly relied on sales of printers and of PCs – both markets are currently in the doldrums.
Whitman told the Wall Street analysts that she wasn't going to spin off parts of the firm nor would she start another restructuring. The last restructure saw nearly 30,000 people losing their jobs.
HP shares (tick: HPQ) rose on Wall Street after the announcement, to stand at $22.65 at close of play.

Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers was fined $25,000 for criticizing officials following Tuesday's 87-71 loss to the New York Knicks.
Rivers made his comments in the postgame press conference April 23, when he chastised the officials for calling early fouls on the Celtics' Kevin Garnett, who finished with 12 points, 11 rebounds and five fouls in just 24 minutes.
"I thought the fouls on Kevin were horrendous, and had a huge effect on us," Rivers told reporters. "He never got his rhythm when you could see he was going to have a game. It hurt us."
The Knicks lead the series 2-0 heading into Friday's Game 3. Boston has advanced to at least the second round in each of the last five postseasons.

UND officials have estimated the cost of retiring the Fighting Sioux nickname and logo at nearly $750,000, not counting the cost of changes that may occur at the privately-held Ralph Engelstad Arena.
University President Robert Kelley sent the estimates last week to a budget analyst and auditor with the North Dakota Legislative Council, in response to a request made by Rep. Mike Schatz, R-New England.
Schatz, who has declared that he will not support an attempt in next month's special legislative session to clear the way for retirement of the name and logo, said he asked for the cost information so he could attach a fiscal note to any bill contemplating that action.
"I wanted all the legislators to know the figures that the president estimated it would cost," Schatz said Tuesday. "I think that's been left out of the conversation so far."
The bulk of Kelley's cost estimate is $575,000 to develop a new nickname and logo, counting research, development, branding and launching. That also would include logo redesigns for special groups, such as Sioux Kids Club and Sioux Crew.
Replacement of logo-bearing uniforms, practice gear and other equipment would cost about $95,000, he reported. Changes to web sites, stationery and other letterhead materials would require about $13,250.
Removing Sioux logos from facilities under the control of UND, including from football end-zone turf, would cost about $63,000, Kelley said.
The Alerus Center, UND's home field, is planning to replace its turf next year anyway.
Based on discussions during a state delegation's meeting with NCAA leaders in Indianapolis in August, "the question of removal of logos from the Ralph Engelstad Arena (and) Betty Engelstad Sioux Center has not been resolved," Kelley wrote. "Thus, we do not have a basis to provide an estimate relating to these facilities."
"We all know what it would take probably to change those two; it would be a lot," Schatz said. "But this at least is a number to begin with," he said of Kelley's estimate.
The 2007 settlement agreement that ended UND's lawsuit against the NCAA spells out changes that should be made at the REA, including the removal of many logos and other Sioux imagery. The agreement allows retention of some items for historic or architectural reasons, and others because it would be prohibitively costly to remove them.
At the Indianapolis meeting, the NCAA leaders agreed to visit the arena again and consider whether other exemptions might be allowed.
REA officials, meanwhile, have said they are not inclined to make any changes.
In his letter to the Legislative Council, Kelley noted that the amounts he cited are "purely estimates based on available information and/or assumptions," and they "will certainly change with time and circumstances."
In August, Gov. Jack Dalrymple led a state delegation to Indianapolis, hoping that the 2011 Legislature's adoption of a law directing UND to retain the Fighting Sioux name would persuade the NCAA to move off their intention to place UND on sanctions. The university faced punishment for not conforming to association policy against the use of American Indian names and imagery.
The NCAA stood firm, and the sanctions went into effect Aug. 15.
After the Indianapolis meeting, Dalrymple said he would ask the Legislature to change the nickname law, giving authority over the issue to the State Board of Higher Education. The board, anticipating that authority, has directed UND to prepare for a transition that would be substantially complete by the end of the year.
In letters to state newspapers, Schatz said he could not support such action.
He also said that the cost of retiring the name and logo had been estimated at $20 million, if wholesale changes at the REA are included, and he asked who would pay.
"The Board of Higher Education does not have that authority without legislative approval nor does UND," he wrote. "Is the NCAA going to donate back its profits from the sale of Sioux merchandise to cover the expense? Are we going to allow ourselves to be blackmailed into doing something that 80 percent of the people don't want to do?"
Kelley told the Legislative Council that "specific sources of funds to enable these changes have not yet been identified (or) assigned, nor is the timing clear" – whether changes would occur and be paid for in the 2011-13 biennium or the 2013-15 biennium.
"Removal of old logo would occur quickly once a decision is final and a date established," he wrote. "Timeline for development of a new nickname (and) logo will be determined at a future date."
When it appeared early in 2010 that the Fighting Sioux name and logo would go, Kelley appointed transition committees, including one assigned to preserve the history and tradition of the symbols, which have been part of UND athletics since 1930.
That transition work was suspended early this year when the Legislature adopted a bill, authored by House Majority Leader Al Carlson, R-Fargo, which mandated that UND continue to use the Fighting Sioux name and logo.
Sen. Lonnie Laffen, R-Grand Forks, who voted for Carlson's bill in hopes it would help the state's appeal to the NCAA, has said he will introduce legislation in the November special session aimed at the nickname's retirement.
Schatz said he hasn't changed his mind about defending the Fighting Sioux name and logo. "I still feel the same way, that the law is a good thing," he said.
Adding a fiscal note may require that a nickname retirement bill go through the Legislature's appropriations committees, but Schatz said he isn't seeking to complicate the process.
"My intent is to provide legislators with information," he said.
He said that he received lots of feedback after declaring his intention to oppose a nickname retirement effort at the Legislature.
"It was all positive, and so heartfelt," he said. "I like that, when people talk from the heart."

Writing content that people will be into is no easy task, but it's a hugely worthwhile one. When Manitoba Hot fell into my lap four years ago, there wasn't much to it. Oh sure, there were a few informative posts here and there, but not many pageviews to speak of (oh, Google Analytics, always speaking the truth). And it certainly had no personality. But after mixing my love for good content with a little care and a lot of effort (and a better CMS!), the blog started to blossom, which eventually led to more writing resources and increased interest with our industry partners.
Since January 2015, the blog has amassed over 1,000,000 pageviews. Not too shabby for a site that was barely scrounging up a 100 views a week in 2012. Managing and building a blog that became hugely popular and relevant has been one of my greatest accomplishments. In my four years leading it, I believe I wrote way over 300 articles. Many were the usual marketing stuff, but the stories that had an interesting hook, or were tongue-in-cheek silly, or displayed my heart on my sleeve, are the ones I'm most proud of. Here are 10 of my favourites with a few thoughts on why I think they resonated with our audience…
Top 10 wildlife encounters
The one that started all the fun — Writing a top 10 post? Might as well start with a top 10 post. We had done some great lists before this one, but for me, this was the first one where I truly wrote in my personal voice and style. So it obviously included a few good pop culture references and a lot of cheese. It was also one of the first "evergreen" pieces I did, meaning it's still relevant more than a year after it was first published.
This particular piece was popular not only locally (within Manitoba), but it performed great nationally and internationally. It's just one of those pieces that a person from far away can be into because a: it's about animals (we all love 'em!), b: it showed off the uniqueness of Manitoba's wildlife, and c: it had damn good visuals. It performed particularly well in California, New York and Texas. And because it's a piece of evergreen content, Google has indexed it much higher over time. It's always a huge win when you can achieve great organic reach.
Roadside Madness!
The one they didn't get — This is one of those things that comes out of nowhere. March Madness was coming up and I was filling out my brackets (I will fill out a bracket anytime, anywhere. I always lose, but I love them), when I thought, could we do a bracket for Manitoba? What do we have a lot of that people would actually care to vote on? I brainstormed this with my awesome colleague Alexis and voila! Roadside statues!
When we mentioned the bracket to people in our department, we got a few "huh?" stares back. But since the content was going on our blog, it wasn't seen as a risk of any sort. I hoped people would like it, but you never know. I do know that people would rather quickly vote on things than enter contests, so I thought we might have a moderate hit on our hands. I sent the first post to a few of my favourite media people, including Ace Burpee, and after that it went gangbusters. I was hoping we would get a couple thousand votes after all was said and done. We ended up with over 75,000 votes! We got votes from every continent in the world. People from Flin Flon and Glenboro (the two finalists) must have relatives everywhere! This was one of my busiest and stressful work weeks ever, but boy, was it fun.
The best part is the people who have told me they are now on a mission to see all of Manitoba's crazy roadside statues. Madness, I tell ya'!
Show me the way to go home
The one that got me all nostalgic — If I'm not trying to make you laugh, I'm probably waxing nostalgic on something from my past. This is a problem when you don't forget anything, ever. I mean, I forget my grocery list all the time, but the good stuff, the meaningful stuff, the stuff that you did with friends and family… I don't forget that.
Before writing this article, I had been invited up to the Interlake area on a lovely Saturday in summer to attend Water Awareness Day and from early morn to late afternoon, I spent some good alone time in one of my favourite areas in Manitoba. Have to admit, I kinda felt like a creeper as I watched and snapped pics of people doing their Lake Life thing. This lazy summer day made me remember a time long, long ago, when I would bike with my mom and she would sing me "Show me the way to go home." I sang it in my head all day and it eventually became a central theme to the article.
This piece became more personal than I initially expected it to be. But from the many lovely comments I received, I wasn't the only one that holds a special place in their heart for the Interlake. Sharing something so personal can feel like a risk, but maybe a worthwhile one as you could end up connecting with your audience on a deeper, more honest level.
8 super fun polar bear mashups
The one that got featured on BuzzFeed — Last year, we took Polar Bear Week up a few notches. I love this week, but up until we got involved, much of the content created around Polar Bear Week is a little dry, important for sure as it's conservation focused, but dry nonetheless. And since our main focus is to entice you to visit Manitoba to experience polar bears in the wild, we wanted some of our content that week to be a bit more light-hearted and show off the funny antics of those big fluffy balls of cuteness (dangerous cuteness).
So what could be better than taking some funny polar bear footage and mashing it up with classic hip hop beats? Nothing. Stop trying to think of something. The answer is nothing. BuzzFeed eventually discovered the videos and featured them at the end of this article: 17 Adorable Facts About Manitoba.
I love creating videos like this (here's another!), it's so fun to see what kind of song will fit perfectly with video footage. It's also a great way to create meme-worthy content to align with a hot trending topic in a short turnaround time. Oh yeah, and that's me in the polar bear suit dancing with Drake to Hotline Toba. Holla!?
Movie mosasaurs vs. Morden's mosasaurs
The one that showed good content trumps contests — I'm not a big fan of contests. They have their place, but I don't think they should be your first thought when promoting something new. Case in point was this piece I wrote on comparing prehistoric beasts as the new Jurassic World movie was just about to premiere. A few weeks before this piece came out, I ran a video contest to promote the CFDC and the results were ok. The content for the contest reached many, but very few participated. I always feel like most people see a post that says "Enter to WIN…" or something similar and go, "meh, no thanks, moving along."
After seeing the contest didn't get the best results, I decided to come up with a simple piece to show that maybe contests are not the way to go all the time. This fun comparison article did exactly that. It was tongue-in-cheek sassy, mentioned a hot trending topic in #prattkeeping, took no time to write and it blew whatever contest engagement we got right out of the water, so to speak.
Oh, and gifs! Always add gifs.
Beluga facts
The one with a kick-ass infographic — In my former life, I was a graphic designer. It's not something I did for very long, but if you put me in front of Photoshop or Fireworks, I am not going to be idle. Nowadays, my skills go to creating silly "Photoshopped" pics (see Drake one above), but for the first year of #BelugaWeek, I thought designing an infographic for it might be a good idea. I had fun creating one a couple of years ago about a prehistoric fish and thought to give it another go.
A little bit of factual content mixed within a striking visual can make a world of difference for comprehension. For this piece, I wanted the visual to be sweet and summery, the facts to be few and interesting, and the call-to-action be about how you can interact with these lovelies up north.
Game of MB Thrones: A Song of Ice and Bison
The one that got in a lil' trouble — Ok, I didn't get in real trouble, but I did get a "we're concerned" email before the piece went live. The concern was how amateurish the video looked, which to us, was kind of the point. We certainly don't have HBO money to create those intricate Game of Thrones credits, instead we had passion, an iPhone and a selfie stick (works as a decent mobile camera dolly in a pinch).
Game of MB Thrones was a hit. Our friend from the CFDC, Peter Cantelon, loved the house banners so much he wanted one created for Bruce the Mosasaur. We obliged, of course. One person told me they started chanting "MAN-I-TOBA!" repeatedly in their head as the actual Game of Thrones credits rolled every Sunday. YES!
This piece was a fun way to do a little real-time marketing by adding a dollop of Manitoba into one of the highest trending conversations online as well as one of the largest pop culture phenomenons of today. Think of it like Manitoba got dressed up as The Red Woman for Comic Con — not everyone's going to get it, but those who do, oh will they love you for it.
Plus, creating low-quality video doesn't necessarily mean it's a low quality piece. Just ask Chewbacca Mom (160M views and counting!). There will always be a want and need to create high-quality, high-cost video, but with how freaking short our attention spans are nowadays, if you have something you can shoot quickly that you feel will be a hit, don't wait. Just freaking do it. But make sure the audio's ok. People will watch crappy video, but will not tolerate bad audio.
Will you accept this rose? A bachelorette's guide to a Manitoba fairy tale romance
The one that got someone to write a detailed response — I literally wrote this piece while The Bachelor was playing in the background. I've never added so many emojis to anything in my life, and I'm pretty sure I said "literally" incorrectly about 20 times. But that's what you do when going full Bachelor. At least I know I wrote it for "The Right Reasons."
After this post went live, one of our favourite local ambassadors, Todd Scott, sent us a 500 word piece on the best "Post breakup Manitoba hot spots." It's hilarious. So hilarious that we posted it on the blog and put some images around it. This is what happens when you cultivate an engaged community and continually encourage them to be part of the conversation.
Polar bears vs. sharks
The one that brought the beat down to Shark Week — For years, the motto on my business card has been a quote I once heard on 30 Rock: "Live every week like it's Shark Week." So yeah, those sharks have it good, pop-culture-wise. In their corner, they boast one of the best blockbusters of all time with Jaws, one of the worst in Sharknado and have a full week dedicated to them every year, which people freak the "f" out about. In the other corner, Polar Bear Week is a little more recent and just hasn't reached those Shark Week highs.
But are sharks really better than polar bears? I did a little investigation and pitted the land predators against the sea predators in six different battles. I'm not going to give it away, but you might be surprised who wins. You probably won't though, I worked for Travel Manitoba. Just sayin'.
Again, comparisons make for some of the best content. Everybody has an opinion and we all love to share them with each other. Go polar bears! Go sharks!
Our mirror in the sun
The one where my partner wrote a poem that made me weep — This was a hard piece to write. Not hard in the writing, but in trying to convey the feelings the Canadian Museum for Human Rights leaves you with after a visit. Luckily, my partner Chuck had a much better way to share how complex a place this is by writing a beautiful poem, which still makes me tear up every time I read it.
This was a piece where the beauty lied within the personal poem and statements from Chuck. It made the piece more personal and added the right amount of heft to the subject matter. Adding a special type of element, such as a poem or quotes, to your content by another source is a good way to present a more robust, thought-provoking story.
That's it! Those are my faves. Do you have a favourite or two? Did you find any of the content tips helpful? Let me know in the comments!

VISIT ROMANIA- Sinaia Reviews
12 reviews
Mountain city Dec 19, 2012
Beautiful mountain resort with slopes, restaurants, bars, clubs and many hotels.
Is the perfect place to spend the winter holidays for those who love snow and winter sports.
Sinaia is about 60 km northwest of Ploieşti and 50 km south of Braşov, in a mountainous area on the Prahova River valley, just east of the Bucegi Mountains. The altitude varies between 767 m and 860 m.
Among the tourist landmarks, the most important are Peleş Castle, Pelişor Castle, Sinaia Monastery, Sinaia Casino, Sinaia train station, and the Franz Joseph and Saint Anne Cliffs. Sinaia was also the summer residence of the Romanian composer George Enescu, who stayed at the Luminis villa.
The climate is a characteristic of low-altitude mountain passes. Annual average temperature: 8°C; Average temperature in June: 15°C; Average temperature in January: -4°C.
In recent years, Sinaia has felt the effects of global climate change – change that has meant shorter summers, with temperatures frequently over 30°C, a slight reduction in the length of spring and autumn, and relatively longer winters (end of October – beginning of May), colder winters with entire weeks dominated by frost ( -19°C to -25°C) and numerous blizzards.

Lift trucks: Industrial Truck Association honors Stan Simpson with a special industry award
Simpson was recognized for volunteer efforts as well as innovative accomplishments.
Latest NewsOther Voices: How a warehouse execution system provides product traceability MHI honors original products, solutions with annual Innovation Awards Modex 2018: MHI to preview 2018 Annual Industry Report IAM, IoT and the Connected Supply Chain New shipper survey reveals that small businesses face "import overhead" More News
Latest ResourceIAM, IoT and the Connected Supply Chain Thursday, March 1, 2018 | 2pm ET
All Resources
The Industrial Truck Association (ITA) has recognized long-time industry professional Stan Simpson with a special award at its annual meeting held earlier this week in San Diego. With more than 165 industry professionals in attendance, the ITA recognized Simpson "for his assistance in guiding the efforts of the industry in the development of technical positions for the industry to assert with it international counterparts," according to the inscription on the plaque.
Over the years, Simpson has chaired the ITA General Engineering Committee (GEC) numerous times and was ITA's 2008-2009 president. He was chairman of the B56 safety committee and instrumental in helping to forge a close working relationship between the association and its sister groups worldwide.
In presenting the award, Jeff Rufener, ITA president and vice president of marketing for Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift America in Houston, said, "When we started to hear about ISO 3691 and its eight parts, we were certain that the 55 sticking points evident at the time would be almost impossible to resolve. Well, thanks to Stan, it's clear now that we were too pessimistic. It is true that a few sticking points did become stumbling blocks, but now we can at least count them on one hand. Stan always saw commonality of interests where many saw only differences and, thanks to his efforts, we are moving ever closer to a global standard that will ultimately result in more sales and profits for all of us."
Rufener also noted Simpson's innovative side: "Stan designed and patented the first multi-functional control handles for load-sensing hydraulics. He also pioneered the use of telescopic handlers. He single-handedly supplied the military with the most innovative product in the industry of materials handling and led dozens and dozens of efforts to test the safety of products supplied to the United States armed forces and many NATO countries. Our troops are better equipped, thanks to Stan."
Simpson's name is on every major initiative that the association has undertaken in the past decade, Rufener said, citing the Industrial Truck Standards Development Foundation (ITSDF) as a leading example. "When the American Society of Mechanical Engineers announced that it would no longer manage the B56 series of standards, Stan stepped up and convinced the ITA board to establish and fund ITSDF. To date, approximately 48,000 copies of the standards have been distributed free of charge to anyone seeking the latest technical specifications."
Simpson led ITA discussions with the Federation of European Material Handling Association regarding the elimination of tariffs and duties on U.S. products exported to the European Union. "Stan was ITA's leading diplomat in this important endeavor that continues on today," Rufener said.
Currently, Simpson is CEO of Stan Simpson, LLC in Cibolo, Texas, which offers program management, government contract oversight and consulting services.

Liberté, égalité, fraternité!
Mais oui, Philadelphia. Eastern State Penitentiary's Bastille Day Festival returns this weekend, Saturday, July 12, to celebrate its 20th-anniversary year of celebrating French National Day, which commemorates the start of the French Revolution with the Storming of the Bastille.
Once again, the Penitentiary teams-up with marvelous cabaret troupe The Bearded Ladies to put on a hilarious theatrical performance playfully reenacting the storming of the Bastille with song, sarcasm, dance and a cast of historic characters.
Read on for our guide to the festive day in Fairmount, and check out our guide of other ways to celebrate Bastille Day in and around Philadelphia here.
Vive la révolution!
The Festival
From around 2 p.m. on until midnight, Fairmount Avenue and Eastern State Penitentiary are home to a festive Bastille Day block party.
At the heart of the festival, of course, is Eastern State Penitentiary on Fairmount Avenue. The block between Corinthian Avenue and 22nd Street is closed to vehicles, making way for thousands of festival-goers.
Early in the day starting at 2 p.m., report to London Grill for outdoor dining, drinking and family-friendly fun including kids crafts, face painting and a photo booth.
The centerpiece of the festival, The Bearded Ladies Cabaret Show, begins at 5:30 p.m. on a stage directly in front of the Penitentiary.
Street admission and sights of the show are both completely free. As of publication tickets to the VIP section right in front of the stage are still available for $40 per person (plus $4.75 service fee). Book online here to score a seat, which includes first-come, first-served seating and complimentary Kronenbourg 1664 from 4:30 p.m. until 6:15 p.m.
For a good — free — view of the performance, your best bet is to simply arrive early. Thousands gather each year to celebrate Bastille Day in the shadow of Eastern State, so do expect crowds.
The performance is immediately followed by a lively after-party back at London Grill until midnight. After the "guillotine" has fallen, London Grill hosts dancing in the street with The West Philadelphia Orchestra from 6:30 p.m. until 9:30 p.m.
Really, the entire neighborhood gets in on the fete, with bars and restaurants opening their doors for after parties well into the evening.
For information about additional Bastille Day dinners and events — click here.
For more on Eastern State's Bastille Day, see below.
The Bearded Ladies Cabaret Show
The Bearded Ladies' performance begins at 5:30 p.m., and culminates less than an hour later in a mock-storming of the Bastille — for which Eastern State Penitentiary makes a perfect stand-in — with 3,000 Tastykakes flung into the crowds from the prison's towers.
The show, a tongue-in-cheek retelling of the French Revolution is emceed by Bearded Ladies creative director John Jarboe as Edith Piaf, "the voice of Paris," and is slated to incude two brand-new numbers this year.
The hilariously campy show is an extravaganza of song and dance, and includes appearances by historic characters like Napoleon, Joan of Arc, Benjamin Franklin and a life-size French Baguette. Oui, a loaf of bread.
This is the festival's main act, during which dozens of French revolutionaries, armed with muskets and cannons and singing "La Marseilles," storm the stone walls of "the Bastille" (Eastern State) and drag "Marie Antoinette" (Terry McNally, co-owner of Fairmount's London Grill) to a functioning guillotine built for the occasion.
Listen for Marie's cry of "Let them eat Tastykake!" around 6:15 p.m. Then, look out! A rainstorm of 3,000 Butterscotch Krimpets are flung from the towers into the crowds.
Bastille Day After-Parties
Following the free performance on Fairmount Avenue, Fairmount's businesses and restaurants open their doors for a public celebration with French-themed entertainment and food and drink specials.
Plus, the Penitentiary will reopen for rare twilight tours at a discounted admission price ($10 adults, $5 students, seniors and kids).
Just down the street, London Grill and Paris Wine Bar keep the festivities going strong with food and drink specials all day, and a street party featuring The West Philadelphia Orchestra and lasting until midnight.
A handful of other restaurants are set to offer up after-party specials on Saturday, too. Visit The Belgian Cafe for a beet Napoleon, Bridgid's for $3 Kronenbourg beers all day long and Rembrandt's for French specialties and such cocktails as La Gillotine, Bombay gin, St. Germaine and grapefruit juice.
For more ideas on where to dine in Fairmount, check out our neighborhood guide here.
Getting There
Traveling to the Fairmount neighborhood is simple via walking, biking, public transit and taxi/Uber. Parking is fairly limited, and streets will be blocked off for the all-day street fair, so driving is probably not the best option.
For travel by SEPTA, hop on the number 33, 48 or 2 bus heading north. Or hop on the Broad Street line, hop off at Fairmount and walk the six blocks west.
Bastille Day Festival 2014
Where: Eastern State Penitentiary, 2020 Fairmount Avenue, and surrounding neighborhood
When: Saturday, July 12, London Grill Block Party, 2 p.m.; Theatrical Show, 5:30 p.m.; After Parties, 6:30 p.m.-midnight or later
Cost: Free

Thank You
35th Poohtang99
replied to PM. thanks.
Found one today for sale, debating purchase. looks clean despite 143K on the clock,
If you don't mind my asking, what is the asking price?
I believe it is $4300
I would go take a look at is and check it out. As long as the miles don't scare you. Of course it is not the number of miles on a car, but how the car was maintained for that number of miles. You can get a good idea just by looking at the over all condition as to whether or not the owner/owners took care of it over the years.
Btw, its #1063 of 4,628.
35th Anniversary edition, I'm new to this forum and would love to know my production number 1FAFP42XXXF165672. Black on black, 5 speed, 57,429 original miles (all driven by me), would also love to know a private seller price if possible.
I have a 35th anniversary mustang convertible, if I have the vin # could anyone suggest to me if I should keep it or be better to sell it?
Respectfully. Selling it is really up to you.. What is the issue?

I love red coats. I always stop to admire them on shop racks in the fall/winter season, and I think they look wonderful against blacks and grays (amongst many other colors). Since I have lots of neutrals in my wardrobe, I love having a coat add a pop of color.
One of my favorite trenches is this Sportmax red trench which I bought in 2009. The cut and the flared bottom all spoke to me and I committed the sin of purchasing this jacket at full price. I especially love the silk lining even though it's only me that sees it!
Sportmax coat (love this classic version)
Another great perk of red coats is that they can still be worn well through spring and even summer – so really they are year round. I have a great weakness for coats and really need to stop buying them (though I just added another brightly colored one, which I hope to share with you soon). It's been unseasonably cold here!

Overcapacity is the only certainty the industry faces in the coming years
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) February 20, 2013
The Global Containerized Shipping and Logistics industry has struggled over the past five years, with years of rapid growth through 2007 at an end and future demand contingent on ongoing economic recovery. Due to lower global industrial production and goods needing to be shipped, industry revenue fell at an average annual rate of 0.6% to $166.1 billion in the five years to 2013, according to IBISWorld industry analyst Lauren Setar.
The Global Containerized Shipping and Logistics industry has undergone some extreme changes over recent years, most noticeably in 2008 and 2009. During those years, major companies placed ambitious orders for new ships as they struggled to build their capacity to meet then-high demand. "Once the demand fell away, though, shipping lines cut routes and staff," says Setar, "and many pulled some of their fleet out of the water to remain viable during the downturn." During 2009, as much as 10.0% of the world's container shipping fleet was not in active service, pushing down industry revenue 17.0% in the year. After a rebound in 2010, uncertain economic conditions have encouraged low inventory levels on the part of the industry's clients, which leaves the industry with far more capacity than is required to meet demand.
Beyond major players like AP Moller - Maersk A/S, Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha, Mitsui OSK Lines Ltd. and Carnival Corporation, the Global Containerized Shipping and Logistics industry is fragmented with a large number of small regional players or family-owned operations, especially in the coastal and inland water transportation segments. The industry has a moderate level of market share concentration, attributable to the vast number of markets covered by the industry, a sign that economies of scope and scale exist in the market. Major players must be truly global to be competitive. In the coming years, higher competition and bunker oil prices will pressure profit margins, increasing the potential for merger and acquisition activity as companies seek to expand their geographical reach and distribution networks by acquiring struggling firms.
Overcapacity is the only certainty the industry faces in the coming years. The industry is dependent on strong global growth and continuing globalization to strengthen, but the threat of a collapse in the Eurozone or a double-dip global recession remains real. On the other side of the equation, the imbalance of ship supply to demand for shipping services will take longer to resolve. Segments of the industry, such as container shipping, are engaged in a race to build the biggest ship. The operator with the biggest ship captures the lowest cost structure and competitive advantage; however, the cumulative action has driven freight rates down and is expected to keep them there.

One of the international members at the Flying Unicorn challenged us to do a layout about where we live. The subject could be anything as long as it pertained to where we live. I was rummaging around in my paper stash and pulled out the gorgeous Prima Almanac collection. I can't beleive I've had this paper for a year and haven't used it!! I thought its colors were perfect to do with this photo of our house taken in the very early spring. This was taken the first spring after we built our house and the cherry blossoms are just beginning to bloom. Its interesting to see how much our trees and shrubs have grown since planting them in the fall of 2008.

Hi, I'm trying to pay for another year of domain mapping. Someone else paid for it last year. I tried purchasing an extension for domain mapping but it just brings me to the my upgrades with the notice that it is expiring, showing that it was purchased by someone else. What do I need to do to switch the upgrade to my account so that I can pay it. Thank you for your help. Ron
The blog I need help with is news.squeak.org.

Sioux Drums

Sioux Drums are double-sided and are made from whole log or pine frames. Historically, Native Americans used natural dyes and colorings gathered from Mother Earth to apply designs to their drumheads. Today, local artisans commonly use acrylics, oil or natural earth pigment to apply their designs.
