Many hands make light work and a bountiful summer harvest at the community garden behind the Faulkner County Library on Tyler Street in Conway.
Behind the library is open acreage, where the nonprofit organization La Lucha works with volunteers to grow varieties of tomatoes, peppers, zucchini and yellow squash, corn, cucumbers and asparagus. The garden also has sunflowers, and in the winter, pumpkins.
Composting bins and a small greenhouse are also on the plot.
While the locals learn how to cultivate the ground and best practices for growing their own food, local food pantries ultimately benefit from a supply of fresh produce.
Food pantries are typically recipients of boxed and highly processed foods and canned goods.
"We recognize sometimes local food is more expensive, and we want to make sure we can include all the community regardless of their economic position," said Sandra Leyva, director of La Lucha and organizer of the Faulkner County Urban Farming Project with volunteer coordinators Sean Ott and Lacey Starkey. "This year one of our goals is to not only give out food but also to give plants and encourage people to come out and grow stuff with us."
Leyva said blueberry bushes are the new additions to the garden this year.
With winter finally fading, Leyva says the group has enacted two community work days on Wednesdays at 4:30 p.m. and on Sundays at 3:30 p.m.
All are invited, and she said the project depends on gaining more volunteers.
"anyone who comes out and helps can take some (produce) home if they want, but most of it goes to St. Peter's Episcopal Church's food pantry," said Leyva.
The group also uses the harvest to throw two yearly festivals, Backyard Gourmet on May 17, and the Urban Farm Festival in the fall.
Backyard Gourmet, Leyva describes, is a "celebration of growing, cooking and eating local food."
This year's theme is cornbread and greens.
The group expects to cook for 200 to 300 people who will be in attendance, and there are plans to educate on growing food and why it is important to support local farmers.
"Backyard Gourmet" is also a cookbook compiled by La Lucha's Urban Farming Project, the Faulkner County Library and the Faulkner County Museum.
La Lucha strives to cultivate creativity and collaboration while promoting local producers and creatives.
They operate The Locals, a retail and co-working space in downtown Conway.
Leyva said for more information and to be part of work days, simply show up at the garden at the designated time Wednesdays and Sundays at 1900 Tyler Street or visit fcurbanfarmingproject.org.

New fence has ruined my garden, please help!
Posted: 04/01/2013 at 23:17
Joe, the concrete post is the old fence line. The fence has not been fitted very well. Some of the wooden posts are already wobbly and no proper gravel boards have been used to hold all the soil back as there land is 2-3ft higher. We called builder today to complain but he basically said tough. We are seeking advice from planning dept at council. Thank you for your help and advice regarding plants. I'm going to start preparing the border this weekend while the rain holds off. got some shrubs half price but think ill wait to see what happens with fence before planting.
New fence has ruined my garden, please help!

Busy-lizzie your right. Photo 4 is view from back bedroom and photo 8 is also taken from that room. I took the after photo few weeks ago so it does look slightly better in summer as I've got lots of poppies in the border. My old border had old conker trees and hedging and was very private. my neighbours have sold most their garden for the houses to be built. The old hedge did belong to me but the builders who erected the new fence have put it onto their boundary so they are now saying it belongs to them. Good job cause its wobbly already and it wont last 5 minutes. The houses are not finished yet so I need to get things done before the houses are sold as I think I'm more likely to get away with it. I have brought a few expanding trellis and have put them onto fence panels. I think it's a good idea to extend border and put shrubs at back. Can anyone recommend some tall growing shrubs?
New fence has ruined my garden, please help!
Posted: 30/12/2012 at 10:54
Hi, I love my garden but it has been ruined by some new build houses which have been built next door. My original border has been ripped out and replaced by horrible fencing. I have planted one tree, 2 photinia red robins, lots of perrienial flowers and i have a few old honeysuckle and climbers but it still doesn't look nice. Do I make my border deeper and plant hedging at the back? Won't hedging take too much goodness out the soil to plant flowers in front? The land next door is higher so the high fence doesn't block the new build garage. You can see the before and after photos here. http://s1294.beta.photobucket.com/user/Laurenmcgi/library/Garden Any ideas will be great thank you.

"Having Nathan Moeller video our wedding was such a great experience. We love the footage he shot and will cherish it forever. It looked like we were in our own personal movie! Nathan worked very well with the other wedding photographers, making sure everyone had enough room to work with. He also discreetly placed GoPros on the stage and around the venue, which allowed for some additional, great camera angles.
10/10 would hire again!"
- Zach & Allie
"As the skies and the day changed, you were able to catch the available light and really highlight the flowers and lights and people. Thanks for picturing all the elements of the wedding and guests, even under the tent. A lot of skill was involved to successfully photograph in so many different situations. I thought you did an excellent job with focus and depth of field. We were surprised and delighted by the handful of photos that you sent while we were on our trip. Our anticipation of the whole group was exceeded by the fun of receiving two CD's of many hundreds of images when we saw them a short time later. Thank you again, Nathan. Let us know when we can provide referrals. We want to share your work with others. We love the collection you selected to show on your website."

Please use the form above to request admissions info for Muscatine Community College.
Mechanical engineering degrees typically take four to five years to complete, and result in a Bachelor of Engineering (BEng), Bachelor of Science (BSc or BS), or Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering (BME). In the US, most undergraduate mechanical engineering programs are accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). Mechanical engineering programs include courses on composites, thermodynamics, engine design, fluid dynamics, control theory, robotics, and computer-aided design (CAD). In addition to the core mechanical engineering curriculum, many mechanical engineering programs offer more specialized programs and classes, such as control systems, fuel cell technology, and biomechanics.
Many mechanical engineering companies have begun to incorporate computer-aided engineering (CAE) programs into their existing processes, including 2D and 3D solid modeling computer-aided design (CAD), enabling faster and more exhaustive visualization of products. Other CAE programs commonly used by mechanical engineers include product lifecycle management (PLM), and analysis tools such as finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM). Further, automation in the form of industrial robots allow businesses to save money on manufacturing costs, and ensure precision quality control. The median annual income of mechanical engineers in the US workforce was $80,580, highest when working for the government ($92,030), and lowest in education ($57,090). Beyond major requirements within the mechanical engineering department, you may consider Lane College chemistry seminars as an adjunct to your primary course of study.

Tallahassee, Jan. 11th, 1834
Affliction seems to pursue us both, dear friend. I have very
recently heard of the bereavement you and your family have suffered
by the loss of your dear brother - for a long while I expected to hear
this, but finding the blow so long suspended I began to hope, he might
be spared to his family. But he was a Christian, & why should we wish
to have detained him from his home we often long ourselves to be at
rest in the graves & yet we are so selfish, that when our Lord calls
back to himself some of the beloved objects He has lent us to cheer our
earthly pilgrimage, we mourn & lament, sometimes refusing to be com-
forted because they are not. Perhaps I should not say we, for indeed
my dear Sukey, I believe you have made such attainments in grace as to be ready
at all times to hear what the Lord will speak, & to say "It is well". Still
I know when the spirit is most willing, these strokes are grievous to the flesh
& my sad heart is still sadder when I think of you all - of the widow
& orphan children - but most of all for you mother - oh I remember well
when my mother mourned for her first born - what she suffered then
no human being knows - I believe as there is no love like a mother's so
there is no grief like hers when her children are taken from her.
I will not attempt to offer words of consolation. I well know there is
no healing for wounds like this, but what the great Physician gives, &
of Him you all have knowledge, to Him you will apply in this time
of need & He will comfort you. I have heard none of the particulars
of your affliction. I hope when you can that you will write & tell me.
I feel anxious about you, you all especially my aunt and yourself & your precious
babe. God grant that little creature may prove a blessing & a comfort to you
as long as you live, but take care that you do not learn to love it too
well. I too had a child that I loved as my own - I loved him too
well. I had besides a great deal of pride in him, and many vain hopes
had I bound up in his life - he was a fine boy & we were to each other

Canucks Report: Hamhuis Updateby Nolan Kelly / Vancouver Canucks
By Nolan Kelly
Dan Hamhuis is making progress after sustaining a concussion in the 1st period of yesterday's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
"I talked to him briefly he said he was feeling better," said Coach Alain Vigneault. "Were going to try and get him healthy and we'll see what happens."
He will continue to be monitored, as per NHL concussion protocol, and won't play tomorrow night when the Canucks visit the Nashville Predators.
It was the second concussion in the last six weeks for Hamhuis. There is no timetable for his return.
Mikael Samuelsson practiced with the team today for the first time since suffering a lower body injury early last week.
"I didn't talk to him after practice, but I would think he would need more than one practice," said Vigneault. "Probably after we get home he'll need a practice or two before he plays."
Samuelsson has missed all three games on the Canucks current four game road trip.
The Jannik Hansen at centre experiment might continue for another game, as Hansen skated between wingers Raffi Torres and Victor Oreskovich on the 3rd line at this morning's practice.
"I threw that out there in the 2nd period, told him today that I would try it in practice, and we'll see what happens," said Vigneault. "He's got really good hockey sense and good speed and I just wanted to see what he could do at that position."
Jeff Tambellini was on the 4th line left wing with Maxim Lapierre at centre and Alex Bolduc on the right.
With Dan Hamhuis out, Aaron Rome was paired with Kevin Bieksa, while Chris Tanev skated with his first NHL partner, Keith Ballard.
The 2010-11 Canucks assault on the franchise record book continued this weekend after convincing wins over the Atlanta Thrashers and Columbus Blue Jackets.
Friday against the Thrashers, the team gained their 106th and 107th points, setting a new mark for points in a season. The win also set a new franchise record for road wins at 24.
Two days later in Columbus the Canucks reached 50 wins for the first time ever, breaking the old mark of 49, held by the 2006-07 and 2009-10 clubs.
The Canucks have now won eight in a row away from Rogers Arena and now hold the best road record in the NHL at 25-9-4.
If the Canucks win their final five games of the season they'll finish with 121 points, good enough for the 6th highest point total in NHL history.

April 2, 2006 -- Orlando future bright with Darko
I'D LIKE to take this opportunity to thank the Mavericks for taking the suspense out of the NBA's last remaining division competition.
Losers of three straight and five of seven, Friday night's 108-99 collapse at Orlando was especially hideous because it wasted Dirk Nowitzki's 38 points and 15 rebounds.
The Magic, meanwhile, are infinitely better than their 29-44 record suggests. Since distancing themselves from Steve Francis, acquiring Darko Milicic, Carlos Arroyo and Trevor Ariza, committing to Jameer Nelson and G'ing up Tony Battie for $22 million over the next four years, Orlando has become what's known outside of New York as a "team." Let's hear some appreciation for Magic management. Co-GMs Otis Smith and Dave Twardzik, with plenty of input, no doubt, from coach Brian Hill, are re-building the rational way.
Half past their first year in charge, they dumped swollen salaries/egos, established Dwight Howard as the rightful franchise player upon Francis' extradition and took a relatively irrelevant financial gamble by agreeing to assume Arroyo's two-year, $8 million contract as the tax for attaining a luxury item such as Milicic.
Describing Milicic as a luxury item? Only those who haven't closely checked out how the lefty 7-foot, 21-year-old (come June 20) is doing in Orlando think I'm goofing on him. From where I'm scoping, he's an adept shooter, a clever-touch distributor, a skilled rebounder, an adroit outlet passer and a fertile shot blocker. Look, Ma, Darko's fundamentally flawless.
Furthermore, Milicic does something you rarely see anymore: he sets a pick and holds it. What that does, aside from freeing up his teammate, is make him a dangerous receiver the very next time they run the screen-and-roll. Because now Darko's man believes he's going to hold it. Instead, he rolls to the hoop for an open layup and has the hands to catch the pass
Finally, deep into his third season, I almost grasp what Pistons president Joe Dumars was thinking when he elected to take Milicic No. 2 behind LeBron James, instead of Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh or Dwyane Wade.
"The day we traded Darko I told our media, given the daylight he's bound to get in Orlando, he'll put up 18 points, ten rebounds and four blocks from time to time," said Dumars, whose Hall of Fame selection will be announced tomorrow. So far in 20 games, Darko is averaging 7.9 (55 FG%), 4.7 and 2.4 in 21.4 minutes.
"He has that kind of talent. He just never got the chance to show it here because we had three All-Stars ahead of him, all in their prime. I'm aware what Darko's capabilities are, but over the course of time he became increasingly depressed. He couldn't take sitting anymore. "... Our media thinks I was blowing smoke, but I knew he was going to fulfill his promise once he cold relax and stop looking over his shoulder when he got in the game."
Orlando's Darko Deal, it says here, will go down in NBA history as one of th league's all-time player-jackings. Even if I'm rowdy wrong, even if Milicic should mysteriously suffer a relapse and turn into another Nikoloz Tskitishvili (No. 5 overall pick in '02 by Denver), his procurement still was meticulously worth the Magic's monetary investment; that's all they really gave. Unlike Isiah Thomas, who misused Penny Hardaway's supposedly precious $15.75 million expiring contract on three more years ($48.5 million) of Francis ("You mean to tell me he couldn't even get Larry Brown a role player he liked for that asset?" wrote LA Times columnist Mark Heisler), the Magic took a low-rent risk on Milicic.
In exchange for Kelvin Cato's virtually vanished $8.6 million salary, the Magic accepted Arroyo's two-year, $4 million-per obligation and Milicic's one year at $5.1 million. If the coaching staff falls out of love with Darko next season, his departure won't leave the franchise capsized a la New York. If he turns out to be a certified center, well, this is how championship contenders are constructed.

Super Shane
Sky Sports' Tim Barter saluted Shane Lowry after the Ulsterman's victory in the Portugal Masters.
Last Updated: 15/10/12 1:45pm
Sky Sports' Tim Barter praised Shane Lowry's performance after the Ulsterman secured his first European Tour win as a professional..
Lowry clinched a one-shot victory in the Portugal Masters on Sunday after Ross Fisher, who was level with the clubhouse leader going down the 18th, missed a par putt which would have forced a play-off.
The Irishman, who carded a five-under par final round to finish on 14 under, won the 2009 Irish Open as an amateur, and Barter believes his victory, which saw him earn a cheque for €375,000, is just rewards for some consistent performances on the Tour since turning professional.
"He was three shots behind at the turn and then that burst came with that birdie at 10 and that eagle at 11," he told Sky Sports. "You could hear the Irish crowd all day. They were really spurring him on.
"It was a tremendous performance from Shane. He has been a class act ever since he won as an amateur. We wondered how he would get on but he has really come on well. Today he has produced the class.
"When an amateur wins on the European Tour you wonder whether that is a fluke. He was in his home country, playing in his own conditions and knew his way round.
"You wonder if they can make their way through. Shane has established himself as a very consistent player and over the last couple of years he has threatened to win a couple of times and has not quite pulled it off.
"But today he went out four shots behind and just played brilliantly and came through to win it."

As I perused the aisles of department store giant Nordstroms, I found myself standing in front of a showcase of iPad and iPhone cases/covers. At first I thought, what a strange place for electronics accessories, but then it made perfect sense–the smartphone case is no longer a utilitarian piece of armor for your device, it is a statement about one's own personality.
I decided to start looking for some cases that had custom artwork and designs, but weren't made by pretentious fashion designers. I had a pretty hard time finding something aesthetically pleasing and of high quality–everything looked pretty mundane (single colors, sometimes two tone), so I just settled for some cheapy, two-tone TPU case with a built-in stand from Amazon:
What it lacks in character, it makes up in stand
Not terrible I suppose, but nothing to write home about. The case was neither good looking nor well built. However after a stroke of good luck, I was put in contact with Korean case designer EPICASE, who was nice enough to send me some exclusive units our way.
Construction and Coverage
You guys may remember my review of the Elago Breathe case for the Galaxy S II in which I showed enthusiasm for the lightweight, back cover-type case. The EPICASE covers are also clip-on however these are built with durability in mind as they have chosen to omit perforations and are a bit thicker all around:
The back of the case is glossy and seamless, while the inside is matte, and has faint traces of molding lines:
The EPICASE is designed with cutouts for speaker, headphone jack, stylus, power and volume. The volume rockers are covered by the case, which make it easier to actuate, but the power button has been thoughtfully left uncovered/recessed as to avoid accidental activation:
Left side
Right side
Installing the case is as easy as clipping it on and one it is seated, it will stay firmly in place without the threat of popping off. I should note that the case will fit both international and U.S. variants of the note as their chassis are the same size. Compared to other clip-on cases, the EPICASE feels very sturdy and high quality. This makes perfect sense because the EPICASE business is actually a spinoff of a company that manufactures the OEM polymer backing plates found on devices such as the Samsung Galaxy S II and Galaxy Tab 10.1.
Note the matching wallpaper!
Durability and Protection
Like with our Elago review, I categorize smartphone cases/covers into 3 tiers of increasing protection:
- Tier 1: Scratch resistance–Vinyl skins and screen protectors
- Tier 2: Scratch proof–Polycarbonate clip-on cases and covers
- Tier 3: Impact resistance & scratch proof–Combination of polycarbonate shells and TPE shock absorbers, 1 or 2 piece.
Like the Elago, the EPICASE offers tier two scratch protection, however there are some differences as far as coverage goes. the Elago's edges rise up above the sides of the device which prevent the display from touching when face down but the Epicase is flush with the display–not an issue if you simply lay your phone on its back. The Epicase's omission of perforations and slightly thicker body seems much more durable as well.
Art Design
The build quality and fit of this case is definitely one of the best I've seen but what really shines with the EPICASE is the unique designs that are featured on their cases. EPICASE is not your run of the mill case manufacturer–they specialize in curating great artwork and work intimately with their designers to promote their endeavors:
Epicase [epikeis] pledges to create a hub, accessible to all, that not only encourages talented artists to express their art through active interactions with its particpants but also, enriches the distinguishing links between person-to-person, heart-to-heart, and potentially, art-to-culture, as well. Break from dull and repetitive everyday life and experience vivid and intensifying encounter with art. Indulge your sense with Epicase.
In an effort to cherish cultural enrichment, Epicase reserves precentages of its sales revenue towards supporting artists' activities, coordinating the Street Gallery, and discovering new artists.
This enthusiasm for art has fostered the creation of a line of cases that showcases the unique aesthetic and style of Epicase's designers.
Epicase's cases feature all sorts of styles and designs ranging from morose to cute, and geometric to cartoonish. Another great feature about these cases is that they also having matching wallpapers available via the Epicase Android App. The app is free and acts as a showcase for all the designers who work with Epicase. You can easily set your wallpaper of choice by navigating to it and selecting Share > Set as.
Often times we find it hard to find where form meets function–I feel this is especially true with smartphones and their accessories. If only someone out their could bring together the designers, passionate for their art, with the case makers, who strive to make the best device protection. Oh wait–EPICASE does exactly that. A solid, well built product that will catch everyone's eye, EPICASEs are a delightful way to decorate and protect your precious devices.
Although EPICASE is not yet available in the U.S., we are giving away the 10 cases displayed above. To enter the contest, simply complete a 3 question survey and you will be entered toward the random drawing!

A Mid-Century Modernists's Dream Apartment
You must check out the latest issue of Lonny - as expected, it's full of great new marketplace finds and luscious house tour spreads. It's also no surprise that one of our favorite featured properties is done in a glamorous mid-century style, re-renovated back into its original state of grandeur.
Christian Leone decorated his space with as many authentic vintage pieces as possible. For example, the vibrant blue sofa originally belonged to his grandparents, and he loved its form so much that he had it reupholstered. He wanted the apartment to be relaxing for guests, so he added lots of additional seating and many burled surfaces on which guests can place their drinks. You can even find ashtrays scattered about. Says Leone, "It's like going back in time, with all the modern conveniences."
Visit Lonny for more on this apartment and other beautiful homes.

In order for Alycia Wagner to describe the initial feeling she had during her first time pole vaulting, the Cal State Stanislaus senior traveled back to her childhood, when life seemed to be a little bit more carefree.
"I remember the feeling and the feeling was more like a swinging motion, like swinging from a rope in a tree," she said. "Like when you're swinging from a top rock or on the side of a hill on a rock and you go out, you let go and land in the water. That's what it feels like the first time trying it."
It's a track and field event that's not for everyone.
But it's one of the more exciting events, perhaps for that very same reason. And pole vaulting will be one of the many events to watch when this year's NCAA Division II Championships hit Warrior Stadium on May 25-28, a meet that will attract thousands of athletes and spectators and boost the local economy.
Wagner has already cleared the provisional qualifying mark for the national meet, and just like her teammates, she's eager to compete in front of a home audience. Despite the fact that she's considered one of the best, Wagner only started pole vaulting as a freshman at Paso Robles High before developing her skills at Cuesta College in San Luis Obispo.
Just like her techniques, the sport of pole vaulting has evolved. Of course, it existed long before Wagner began competing in high school. It existed during the times of the ancient Greeks, though it's only been a full medal event at the Olympic Games since 2000 for women (for men, it began in 1896).
The event involves a long, flexible pole, which is used to clear a bar set on two erected poles. For an athlete to overcome the bar, a runway is needed. For Wagner, she begins some 92-93 feet away before she attacks the ground and sticks the end of the pole that's the furthest from her into the metal pit, where she takes off skyward. It's the closest thing to flying.
The goal is to clear the bar after letting go of the pole, to only then land safely into the padding. And whoever clears the highest mark, wins. It's simple as that. But the event is not for people afraid of height. Those people might want to look away when someone is in midflight. If he or she doesn't have enough momentum (or swing, as pole vaulters say), there's a chance of dropping straight into the pit. Ouch. But that rarely happens.
"You have to be a little crazy" to compete in the pole vault, said Annie Burlingham, an All-American pole vaulter for the Warriors last year. "I mean, you have to be a little nutty."
Her husband is Kasey Burlingham, who won a national title in the pole vault in 2009. They now teach pole vaulting at youth camps and can tell when someone can compete in the event by the way the young athlete approaches the takeoff area. With the pole horizontal to the ground, some kids sprint straight toward the padding area before suddenly stopping.
"You can be low-key in life, but as long as you have that competitive drive and that adventure, it'll go," Annie Burlingham pointed out. "If you're low-key in all accounts, it's not going to work."
It's not a stretch to say that pole vaulters are built with a passion for adventure. They climb rocks. They race up mountains. They like to strap a bungee-jump harness across their body. They jump out of airplanes for an adrenaline rush.
Tom Brenda, who coaches the pole vaulters at Stanislaus, admits that his event is a bit unusual.
"This event probably belongs more in a circus than track and field," he said, laughing. "For obvious reasons, it's kinda funky."
He has been around the sport long enough to know what it takes to succeed in the event. Strength and speed are needed, he said. After he sees those qualities, he teaches the athletes how to mentally prepare for an attempt. Again, it's not for everyone.
Wagner knows what it takes.
"There are so many things you can do right, there are so many things that you can do wrong," she said. "In order to start getting those wrong things right, you have to take it step by step, day by day. You have to start practice jump by jump. You have to put aside the things you're doing wrong and focus on the things you're doing right, and elaborate on those.
"I feel like consistency is the main thing. Between mental focus and consistency, all I can add to that is dedication."

Been inactive but now I wanted to rewrite this number, I hope it will be better than last time.
A young Pokemon joyfully shouts out as she dives in and out of the water. The large, pink dinosaur-like dragon Pokemon swiftly uses her hands to swim along the icy water as she reaches for the surface. The water itself was only 10 feet from the ground, so it was almost shallow water. From the top, the water was a crystal clear white with many ice blocks floating on its surface. From there, the Pokemon gradually comes up to the surface to breathe for air before she went down to dive again. Before she did just that, she shouted to her partner, who was sitting on the beach itself.
"Hey Dialga, come on in! The water is awesome!" she shouted to a blue dragon sitting on the beach.
"No thanks…" Dialga said as he stared at the water long and hard. He sat there on the beach, watching the girl jump in and out of the water. In his mind, he wanted to join her; however, he's afraid that if he went in the water, than he would drown. Dialga doesn't really know how to swim and he once had an incident where he almost drowned, so because of that, water was his worst enemy.
From where he was sitting, the beach looked rather wonderful. A clear blue sky, bright shining sun whose light illuminated the sky, clear white water and soft brown sand. Near the boardwalk, sat a small picket sign that reads 'welcome to Blizzard Beach'. This beach is famous for Is rather chilly temperatures.
Where the girl was at, the tides were starting to pick up as small waves began to form in the water. She kept jumping into the water and swimming below its surface until she needed to breathe again. For her, being underwater was water wonderful, because of the fact that besides from being a dragon type, she was also a water type. In the rain or underwater, she was fast and by fast, she was double her original speed. She often liked the swiftness of her movements as she swam under the water's icy surface.
As she reached up to the surface, the tides began to get bigger and bigger which each wave that crashed on to the shore. The girl was staring at them for some time as she played in the water, but didn't really think anything of them. The waves, even though were getting bigger, were not big enough to do any harm to her. They were still merely small ripples of waves, lingering through the water. She turned back to Dialga, who was staring at her as he sat there.
"Are you sure you don't want to come in?" she asked with a smile that made him blush.
As he was about to answer her, he noticed an enormous wave, about fifteen feet in height, was coming toward her from behind. The wave was moving fast as it carried a lot of ice blocks and seaweed with it. With that, he got up from his spot and ran toward the water.
"Palkia, look behind you!" he yelled out to her as he motioned for her to look behind.
She turned around and in about six inches from her; the huge wave was speeding toward her. Because it was so close to her, she didn't have much time to escape. She put her arms in front of her face to brace herself as the wave continues to make its way toward her. It got closer, closer and closer until…
It stopped…
The wave stood there froze in its path along with five ice blocks and a bunch of seaweed from underwater. The wave was about two inches shy from where Palkia was standing. Upon seeing the huge wave frozen in its tracks, she turned back to Dialga, who winked at her. A huge smile stretched across her face as her heart was beating in a fast pace.
"Dialga…" Palkia cooed. "You saved me!"
"Well-," Dialga started to say.
Palkia quickly got out of the water and proceeded run to and wrap her arms around Dialga's neck. She hugged him tightly and intimately.
"I love you," she said in a cutesy tone.
A big smile grew on Dialga's face as his face turned blood red. To him, it felt rather good to know that he saved her from being crushed by the wave. To Palkia, however, without his quick thinking to stop time around the wave, she would have drowned and since Dialga was fearful of water, he wouldn't have been able to save her.
"I love you too, Palkia. That's what partners are for, we love each other enough to look out for each other," Dialga got to finally say.
Time finally released itself from the wave as it resumed making its way onto the shore. Palkia turned around to stare at the remains of the large wave breaking against the shoreline. She was thinking that if only she was strong enough, she could have saved herself from the wave. However, she didn't know how to except for Dialga's time stopping powers, and she only controls space, not time. So other than that, she doesn't know how to use her space powers to get her out of a situation such as this
"I wish I was strong enough to stop the wave myself," Palkia sighed. "Like you are," she said as she turned to Dialga.
"You'll get there! You're just learning your powers right? To help you out, I will lend you my strength," he replied. "But when we get home."
"Really? Oh thank you! Thank you!" she squealed as she wrapped her arms tightly around him.
"BUT, you must ONLY use my strength when you REALLY need to use it. I'm serious, Palkia. Don't use it so that you can impress those kids you're always complaining about," he said.
"I promise!" Palkia said as she hugged him tighter.
As Dialga was enjoying spending time with Palkia, he felt a great big push alongside of him. It wasn't enough to make him fall over but the impact made him stumble quite a bit. He looked over to his left side and saw a rather young Pokemon lying on the ground. The Pokemon was red and white, had jet-like wings and was very small compared to the two of them. It seemed like he or she was a four foot tall dragon that appeared to be fragile.

(Capital Rollout Project) New York State Senate President Pro Tempore Malcolm A. Smith Secures $250,000 For Point Breeze Fire Department Inc., For Replacement Of Primary Fire Apparatus
(New York, NY)- Senate President Malcolm A. Smith secured $250,000 for the Point Breeze Fire Department , Inc. located in Breezy Point, New York, to purchase new primary fire-fighting apparatus.
"New York's bravest give their lives for New Yorkers every day. In order for them to better serve the community they must have up-to-date equipment. The money I secured for Point Breeze will allow them to purchase new top-of-the-line fire-fighting apparatus," said Smith.
Point Breeze Fire Department Commander Kurt Bruder said: "We are thrilled that Senate President Malcolm A. Smith awarded us with such a significant amount of money. Not only will we be able to purchase new equipment, the money will also help with maintenance and operating costs."
The Point Breeze Fire Department is one of the very few volunteer fire departments wholly within New York City. The department is located in Smith's district, on the Western end of the Rockaway Peninsula in Queens County and is self sustaining financially through community support and public grants. The fire house is located 15 miles south of the World Trade Center and on September 11th, 2001, were called upon to relocate and provide firefighters to an FDNY firehouse while their company recloated to respond to rescue/recovery efforts at the trade Center. On November 12, 2001 the 60 members of the fire house were called to assist with the crash of American Airlines Flight 587 on takeoff from John F. Kennedy Airport, which occurred only three miles from the fire house in Belle Harbor.
Commander Bruder also said: Our members are responsible to protect and serve our community. With the funds allocated to us we will now be able to purchase a NFPA/OSHA complaint replacement pumper to replace their existing one from 1984.
" I am glad to help. I know this will really make a strong impact and better improve the department," concluded Senator Smith.

Azerbaijani Parliament Elects Speaker
(RFE/RL) 2 December 2005 -- Lawmakers elected in Azerbaijani disputed 6 November general election held their first parliamentary session.
Opening the session, President Ilham Aliyev said the newly elected deputies had won in what he described as an "open and fair race."
According to official results, the pro-presidential ruling Yeni Azerbaycan party won 56 out of 125 seats in the new parliament. Ten seats remain unfilled after results were cancelled due to complaints of irregularities.
The nine deputies from the opposition elected in the poll did not attend the opening session.
The lawmakers elected Oqtay Asadov from the Yeni Azerbaycan party as parliament's new speaker. He told the session the new parliament "will support the course laid out by the president."

Gonsalves joined Duke Ellington in 1950 and stayed with him almost continuously for twenty-four years. He flirted with atonality long before John Coltrane or Eric Dolphy. In fact, his combination of cool atonality with hot rhythms made him one of the most original of all tenor sax men.
In his long tenure with Ellington, Gonsalves' electrifying 27-chorus improvisation on Diminuendo and Crescendo in Blue at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1956 marked his breakthrough to public fame and the beginning of a comeback for the Ellington band.
During his long, fragmented tenure with Ellington, Gonsalves became a giant. His playing bore traces of Webster and Hawkins, and, in more reflective moments, displayed what has been described as a 'vocalsied but fragile tone' reminiscent of Lester Young's. Yet for all these borrowings, his became a distinctive, striking voice quite unlike those of the three grand masters and hardly ever their inferior.
Paul Gonsalves retained in his playing those distinctive qualities which led many fellow musicians to rate him in the top handful of truly great tenor saxophonists. He was a giant of jazz, an engaging and delightful figure, and left behind on record, an extensive library of masterful musicianship.
Gonsalves died in London a few days before Duke Ellington's death. Mercer Ellington refused to tell Duke of the passing of Gonsalves, fearing the shock might further accelerate his father's decline. Ellington and Gonsalves, along with trombonist Tyree Glenn, lay side-by-side in the same New York funeral home for a period of time.

12 volt charger technology has kept pace with the microprocessor revolution, and so current battery charging philosophy uses 3 stage (or 2 or 4 stage) microprocessor regulated charging profiles. These are "smart chargers", and quality units generally are not found in discount stores. The three stages or steps in lead/acid battery charging are bulk, absorption, and float (or complete shut off in some cases). Qualification, or equalization are sometimes considered another stage. A 2 stage unit will have bulk and float stages. It is important to use battery manufacturer's recommendations on charging procedures and voltages, or a quality microprocessor controlled charger to maintain battery capacity and service life.
The older 12 volt charger would feature a fixed charging voltage, high enough to "force" energy (amps) into the battery. The lower the initial battery voltage (state of discharge), the easier this forcing process is, so you may see the amp meter (if so equipped) run up to the charger's maximum output amperage, and stay there a while. As battery resistance rises, as it does as the state of charge increases, the harder it is for the 12 volt charger to force the amps in, so the amp rate decreases. Eventually, the charger reaches a point where it's output voltage can't force any more into the battery, so current almost stops, but depending on where this voltage point is, it may be high enough to overcharge over time, or keep the battery in the gassing stage, drying out a flooded type battery. These chargers should be monitored for this reason, and disconnected when the amp meter drops to the low point.
The "smart chargers" are profiled with contemporary charging philosophy in mind, and also take information from the battery to provide maximum charge benefit with minimum observation. Some gel cell and AGM batteries may require special settings or chargers. True Gel batteries generally require a specific charge profile, and a gel specific or gel selectable or gel suitable charger is called for. The peak charging voltage for Gel batteries is 2.3 to 2.36 volts per cell, and for a 12 volt charger this works out to 13.8 to 14.2 volts, which is lower than a wet or AGM type battery needs for a full charge. Exceeding this voltage in a Gel battery can cause bubbles in the electrolyte gel, and permanent damage, as the bubbles do not dissipate when the over voltage condition ceases.
The BULK stage in a 12 volt charger involves about 80% of the recharge, wherein the charger current is held constant (in a constant current charger), and voltage increases. The properly sized charger will give the battery as much current as it will accept up to charger capacity (25% of battery capacity in amp hours), and not raise a wet battery over 125° F, or an AGM or GEL (valve regulated) battery over 100° F. The target voltage for a 12 volt charger for AGM or some flooded batteries is 2.4 to 2.45 volts per cell, which is 14.4 to 14.7 volts. Some flooded cells will tolerate over 15 volts.
The ABSORPTION stage (the remaining 20%, approximately) in the AGM/flooded 12 volt charger has the charger holding at the absorption voltage (between 14.4 VDC and 14.7 VDC, depending on charger set points) and decreasing the current until the battery is fully charged. If the battery won't hold a charge, or the current does not drop after the expected recharge time, the battery may have some permanent sulphation.
The FLOAT stage is where the charge voltage is reduced to around 2.25 volts per cell, which is around 13.5 VDC and held constant, while the current is reduced to less than 1% of battery capacity. This mode can be used to maintain a fully charged battery indefinitely. Some chargers shut off instead of maintaining a float voltage, and monitor the battery, initiating a charge cycle if necessary.
Recharge time can be approximated by dividing the amp hours to be replaced by 90% of the rated output of the charger. For example, a 100 amp hour battery with a 10 % discharge would need 10 amps replaced. Using a 5 amp 12 volt charger, we have 10 amp hours/(.9x5) amps = 2.22 hour recharge time estimate. A deeply discharged battery deviates from this formula, requiring more time per amp to be replaced.
Recharge frequency recommendations vary from expert to expert. It appears that depth of discharge affects battery life more than frequency of recharge. Basically, lead acid batteries, including the sealed types (AGM and Gel) like to be kept fully charged when possible. For example, recharging when the equipment is not going to be used for a while (meal break or whatever), may keep the average depth of discharge above 50% for a service day. This basically applies to battery applications where the average depth of discharge falls below 50% in a day, and the battery can be fully recharged once during a 24 hour period. This is called "opportunity charging".
Equalization is essentially a controlled over charge. Some charger manufacturers call the peak voltage the charger attains at the end of the BULK mode (absorption voltage) an equalization voltage, but technically it's not. Higher capacity wet (flooded) batteries sometimes benefit from this procedure, particularly the physically tall batteries. The electrolyte in a wet battery can stratify over time, if not cycled occasionally. In equalization, the voltage is brought up above typical peak charging voltage (to 15 to 16 volts in a 12 volt charger) well into the gassing stage, and held for a fixed (but limited) period. This stirs up the chemistry in the entire battery, "equalizing" the strength of the electrolyte, and knocking off any loose sulphation that may be on the plates.
The construction of the sealed batteries (AGM and Gel), all but eliminates any stratification, and most all manufacturers of this type do not recommend it (advising against it). Some manufacturers (notably Concorde) list a procedure, but observing voltage and time specifications are critical to avoid battery damage.
A 12 volt charger can be had from a low milliamp output (100, 200, 500 milliamps), up to 90 amps, that will plug into a 115 volt wall outlet (chargers above about 65 amps usually require a 20 amp circuit, so check). Some of the smaller units are unregulated, and simply have a fixed voltage output, like the chargers of old. These tend to take longer to charge, and should be avoided when possible. Smaller amp capacities are appropriate for smaller batteries, like motorcycle, ATV, etc., or electronic and security type applications in the 1.3 to 12 amp hour range. They also can be used for maintenance on larger batteries. A medium amp output 12 volt charger would be in the range of 20 to 50 amps or so, and be used for many applications using about 100 amp hours of battery and up, or applications with a constant amp load (power supply application). For a power supply type situation, the constant draw should be a low percentage of the charger maximum amp capacity, to keep the charger from going back into the boost or bulk stage, or the charger should have selectability for the power supply or "battery with load" mode. Larger units in the 12 volt charger models are about 55 to 90 amps output. These are used in large amp hour battery banks, or applications desiring faster recharge times (possibly at the expense of maximum battery life). Sometimes the larger units are used where a generator is the AC power source, and generator run time is a consideration.
Most battery manufacturers recommend sizing the charger at about 25% of the battery capacity (ah = amp hour capacity). Thus, a 100 ah 12 volt battery would take about a 25 amp 12 volt charger (or less). Larger chargers may be used to decrease charge time, but may decrease battery life. Smaller chargers are fine for long term floating, e.g. a 1 or 2 amp "smart charger" can be used for battery maintenance between higher amp cycle use, but would be inefficient or burn up if used to bulk charge large capacity, deeply discharged batteries.

What is an 'Escalator Clause'
An escalator clause is a contract provision allowing for one to pass an increase in costs to another party. Escalator clauses are usually related to influences beyond both parties control, such as inflation.
Also known as an "escalation clause".
BREAKING DOWN 'Escalator Clause'
Escalation clauses allow people to enter large or long-term contracts, while accounting for changes in the market or economy. For example, let's examine a possible arrangement for someone to rent an apartment. If housing prices are increasing rapidly, a landlord may be hesitant to sign a longer term rental agreement or lease, since he or she could lose out on the property's appreciation. By including an escalator clause, where rent can increase by a specified amount each period, the landlord can still benefit from current market conditions, while the renter can secure a long-term living arrangement.

As I've interacted with couples from all over the world, I've found that many of the issues that ultimately lead to infidelity and divorce creep in unintentionally. People don't usually set out to sabotage their marriage and wind up in divorce court, but small choices can ultimately lead to big disasters. (Tweet This!) Subtle poor choices along the way can pile up like a snowball rolling down a hill until it's big enough to start an avalanche of consequences.
Below are seven of the most common ways people can harm their marriage (sometimes without even realizing it). Avoid these and you'll go a long way toward safeguarding your marriage.
(In no particular order):
1. Not wearing a wedding ring.
People might just not be into jewelry or not think it's a big deal, but wearing a ring can be a first line of defense against adultery. When you meet new people, one of the first things they'll notice about you is whether or not you're wearing a ring. They'll make assumptions about your "availability" based on the presence or absence of a ring.
2. Digital distractions.
I'll admit it: sometimes I give my iPhone more attention than I give my wife! Do your best to keep screens turned off as much as possible when you're together with your spouse. Talking with your spouse is always better than texting with somebody else (or playing Candy Crush, or checking Facebook, or…).
3. Inconsistency in parenting.
Raising kids is one of the most sacred duties on earth, but it can also harm your marriage if you don't have a unified approach with your spouse. Ashley and I don't argue much, but many (if not most) of our disagreements have come out of miscommunications about parenting.
This one is two-fold, because we harm our marriages when we STOP flirting with our spouse or when we START flirting with anybody else! Flirting within marriage is always helpful, but flirting outside of your marriage is always harmful! (Tweet This!)
5. Porn and/or graphic romance novels.
Many couples think porn and/or reading graphically sexual novels are a harmless fantasy that can actually spice things up in the bedroom if they do it together, but the truth is that these things are an enemy of real intimacy. Don't just be physically monogamous; be mentally monogamous as well. (Tweet This!) And I'd encourage you to add some accountability and porn-blocking software on your devices to protect your marriage and family. Check out the resource at www.X3watch.com.
6. Autopilot.
Cable TV companies give their best rates and service at the beginning but then treat you much worse after the "promotional period" expires. Sadly, many marriages look like this. We give each other our best at the beginning of the relationship, but then get into "autopilot" and stop giving each other our best. Don't take each other for granted.
7. Negative friends.
Your friends have the unique ability to encourage your marriage or to discourage it. Make sure you're hanging out with people who love you AND your spouse. (Tweet This!) Choose friends who will strengthen your character, and remove yourself from people who would tempt you to compromise your character.
Even if you've found your marriage falling into some of these "intimacy killers," don't lose hope! Make a decision to change course, and in time, your marriage can become more vibrant and fulfilling than ever before.
