Moving season is just ahead of us, and that means rogue moving companies are getting ready to try to get your business. Most people don't make a big family move until school is out, but right now is the time to start thinking about the moving company you'll hire.Atlanta has a big problem with rogue moving companies. The city is ranked in the top 10, so it's up to the consumer to do homework before you hand over all of your worldly possessions to complete strangers. A business that called itself Real Movers is classic rogue mover. State and federal regulators logged so many complaints against the company it was considered rogue. One family reported to the BBB that Real Movers gave them one estimate, but once they had their belongings on a truck out of state, the price changed. "We feel like we've been tricked and manipulated by these people, and it's really frustrating.," said Lindsey Wolny in an interview in 2011.Anne Ferro runs the Federal Motor Carrier Administration -- the regulators for interstate movers. At the industry's annual meeting, she said her number one rogue carrier red flag is when they refuse to make a house call for your moving estimate. "We can do this over the phone. We don't have to come out to your home. Make them come to your home. You're going to need to pay a deposit. No, don't do it," said Ferro.She says they offer a low estimate, get a deposit, pick up your things then the price escalates. So what can you do? Do your homework. The Better Business Bureau tracks the industry. Also, you can call the Georgia Department of Public Safety for a guide to licensed movers.And now you can look for a "ProMovers" seal for those who earn it. "The industry realized because of the Internet rogues that we need to, as an industry, to give the consumer some reliable starting point when they shop for a mover," said John Bisney of the American Moving and Storage Association.Homework up front is better than dealing with this kind of customer service when you are desperate to get back your belongings. It pays to get estimates, at least three of them. If one of them is much lower than the others, be suspicious. Below is a list of resources to help you plan your move:WWW.GAMCCD.NETWWW.ATLANTA.BBB.ORGWWW.MOVING.ORG WWW.PROTECTYOURMOVE.GOV

Dr. Semba is the inaugural W. Richard Green Professor of Ophthalmology at the Wilmer Eye Institute. He holds joint appointments in the Department of Molecular Microbiology and Immunology and the Department of International Health. Dr. Semba received his B.S. from Yale University (1978), M.A. and M.D. from Stanford University (1983), and M.P.H. from Johns Hopkins University (1991). He completed his ophthalmology residency at the Wilmer Eye Institute. Dr. Semba has been a faculty member at Johns Hopkins University since 1987.
Dr. Semba's areas of research include the characterization of emerging biomarkers for adverse aging-related outcomes and the application of proteomics to the understanding of chronic diseases. He has been studying the relationship of advanced glycation end products and their circulating receptors to human health. His most recent investigations are on the recently-discovered "anti-aging" hormone klotho and its potential role in cardiovascular disease, eye disease, and other aging-related disorders. He also has a longstanding interest in nutritional blindness (vitamin A deficiency disorders) in developing countries.
Dr. Semba is the author of "Handbook of Nutrition and Ophthalmology" (Humana Press, 2007), the first general text on nutrition and eye health.

UPDATE [6:35]: A state judge has blocked a Mississippi open-carry gun law from taking effect Monday, according to the Associated Press. This story broke after this report aired.
(WMC-TV) - Open carry laws are in effect in Mississippi starting Monday as long as the weapon is fully or partially visible. Private businesses will have a choice to make because they can prohibit weapons with a sign.
David Campbell owns Dekar Salon, and when open-carry laws take effect he will not try to keep guns out of his shop.
"I think a person ought to have the right to protect themselves and their family," he said.
It is a tough call for business owners.
"We're going to put a sign on the door that says you cannot bring firearms," said gas station owner Mahendra Sisodiya.
Sisodiya will say no to firearms at his Exxon in Hernando.
"Mainly the reason being customers, we don't want them to feel uncomfortable, and of course safety of the employees," said Sisodiya.
Law enforcement officers like DeSoto County Sheriff Bill Rasco want people to be aware of the new law that he says is bound to make his job a little tougher.
"It's frightening for us in law enforcement because I think there are going to be some people that just try you in the beginning to see what you are going to do," he said.
Rasco will be among those posting no weapons signs where he can, including the county courthouse and justice court. He hopes people will be smart and safe – while the business owners decide to post a sign
"It's just a very uncomfortable situation I think," said Sisodiya.
Or not.
"If somebody wants to carry a gun that's up to them as long as they don't point it at me. I don't want anybody pointing it at me.," said Campbell.

The pool was unheated. The walls between rooms thin. It was clean and only a few blocks to the town center. The breakfast food was good, but there was not a good place to eat it. It seemed as if they had run out of money mid way through the makeover.

The rate I received was decent for this particular town. The bathroom was a decent size. It's nice having a microwave and mini fridge in the room.
The room was very small and dark. The front desk was left unattended and they seemed short staffed. I phoned the front desk twice for assistance. When no one answered, I went in person and no one was there. I waited 10 minutes before giving up.This motel needs more front desk staff. The three times I visited the front desk, there was no one there to help me. Another guest was also waiting and I asked if he'd seen anyone and he replied that he'd been waiting 10 minutes and never saw a staff member.

Room was spacious and attractively decorated. Large bathroom. Microwave and apartment-sized refrigerator. Quiet property. Felt safe. Convenient parking. Free WIFI. Management helpful and responsive.
No.It is a small hotel right on the main road into Ojai. The manager is on-site all day and is very helpful. The rooms are reasonably priced, attractive and well-maintained. The ambience on the property feels good, respectful and safe. There is a small pool away from the road. Great experience overall.

Poor 2.0
We paid $8000 to rent the ENTIRE property for a 3-day wedding weekend and ended up being treated terribly by the owner, xyz. the rest of the staff was fantastic, the rooms were beautiful, but the owner's attitude was horrible, rude and disrespectful. I would have have come back every year for my anniversary, but because of how incredibly foul the owner was, my family, friends and I will not spend a dime there ever again. The way we were treated led me to believe all the things I'd heard whispered about some people in Ojai
Excellent 10.0
I was quite impressed the moment I stepped into the room. It tastefully and artistically decorated, it was clean and comfortable. Outside, the grounds are attractively landscaped, the pool is small but in a cozy sort of way. The office staff was friendly. This place is halfway between a hotel and a bed and breakfast inn -- there are only about 12-15 units, I think. When I read the few negative reviews of this place on other websites, I come away wondering, 'Were they at the same hotel I was?

The Outside of the Inn is very quaint. The rooms themselves are larger than you would expect. They also seem to have little cottages as well that were bigger. Would definitely come again.

Marcos Maidana is the the kind of fighter fans love: a man of few words and many punches. He's simple, not in the sense that he's dull or stupid, but in the sense that he knows what he likes: to fight. Asked at press conference whether Floyd Mayweather is attempting to change the way their rematch will be refereed by calling him a dirty fighter, Maidana shrugged. "Maybe...
Belfast's Fight Fans Deserve A Monument All Of Their Own
(Peter Robinson and deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness with Carl Frampton and Barry McGuigan at Parliament Buildings Monday; Kelvin Boyes/Press Eye) It is quite something when a fight crowd becomes a draw in itself. 16,000 fans congregated in a Belfast shipyard on Saturday evening, there in support of Tiger's Bay junior featherweight Carl Frampton, who joined compatriots...
Portrait Of The B-Side As A Young Man
"His very existence was improbable, inexplicable, and altogether bewildering… It was inconceivable how he had existed, how he had succeeded in getting so far, how he had managed to remain — why he did not instantly disappear." – Joseph Conrad.

Earl Lectures - History
Earl Lectures • History
For more than a hundred years, PSR has hosted the Earl Lectures and Leadership Conference, a three-day event that addresses critical theological, pastoral, and social issues of the day.
Founded in 1901 with a gift from Edwin T. Earl, the purpose of the Lectures was, according to PSR's Board of Trustees, "to aid in securing...the adequate presentation of Christian truth, by bringing to Berkeley, California...eminent Christian scholars to lecture upon themes calculated to illustrate and disseminate Christian thought, and minister to Christian life..." Over the years, the content of the Lectures has reflected the important theological, political, economical, and social trends of their time, but one quality is constant: the Lectures have always featured a uniformly high standard of scholarship.
Lecturers have been Biblical scholars, educators, historians, authors, activists, church leaders, and scholars of literature, among others; some of the featured Lecturers were well-known within their field but little-known outside of it, while others were household names. Some of the names we recognize today include such international figures as Theodore Roosevelt, Elie Wiesel, Howard Thurman, Maya Angelou, Paul Tillich, Alice Walker, and Robert Reich.
The Lectures have taken different forms over the years: sometimes small gatherings held on the PSR campus, other times large gatherings that filled lecture halls at the University of California. For much of the last century, the Lectures were held yearly; beginning in 2012, they will be held biennially.
On these pages, you will find information about the upcoming Lectures in 2015, on the topic of "Be|Art|Now" and brief details about some of the past Lectures and Lecturers.
If you would like to keep apprised of upcoming Earl Lectures events and information, please add yourself to our mailing list.
Contact the Earl Lectures office at 510/849-8218 or 800/999-0528, ext. 8218.

Past Earl Lectures
2013 "We Are Family: Real Families, Real Faith in the Real World"
The 111th Earl Lectures and Leadership Conference, "We Are Family: Real Families, Real Faith, in the Real World" held January 29-31, 2013, brought together scholars and faith community leaders to explore what family means in a modern historical context within U.S. society.
In the company of Dr. Margaret A. Farley, and the Rev. Dr. Miguel A. De La Torre and inspired by the preaching of the Rev. Barbara J. Essex, participants explored questions about who decides what makes a family and how the Divine is reflected in the stages and activities of family life.
See the schedule, workshops, special events, presenter
bios, and press release from the event.
2011: Our Daily Bread: Faith, Work, and the Economy
The 110th Earl Lectures and Leadership Conference, Our Daily Bread: Faith, Work, and the Economy, brought together religious and secular leaders to teach, preach, and strategize about issues of economic justice.Joined by Robert Reich, Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, Kim Bobo, Rev. Alexia Salvatierra, Bishop Yvette Flunder, and many more renowned speakers and presenters, members of the PSR community came together to strive to live out the Gospel message to care for "the least of these."

Linda Tillery and the Cultural Heritage Choir performed, and the film Lord, Save Us from Your Followers was previewed. Topics explored included: the essential difference between spiritual and religious; what religious institutions can learn from those who claim to be spiritual or religious; and what kind of critique can those who
call themselves "religious" offer of the concept "spiritual, but not religious"?

2009: Behold… a New Thing: Emerging Expressions of Faithfulness
108th Earl Lectures reflected critically on new forms of spirituality and worship associated with the "emerging church."

They guided exploration of popular culture, generational change, and religious innovation in North America. There was also a screening of the new film, The Ordinary Radicals.

We will NOT find an alternative to energy dense, easily transportable conventional oil in time to sustain indefinate economic growth.
All alternative energies have one or more disadvantages that do not let them compete with cheap conventional oil.
Given our industrial civilization depends on massive amounts of cheap energy, the reliance on conventional oil is enormous.
The only quick solution I see is a drastic downscaling of economic activity.

Feb 15 2013: Brian: It is not true that"electricity is not a replacement for oil", as you stated. It depends on whether the electricity is cheap , plentiful , and has no negative effects. It is possible to create artificial motor fuel, etc from the components in the atmosphere. Because of that , it could be "carbon neutral". If you would like more details about that , and other energy alternatives, you could look up "Thorium: Energy Cheaper than Coal". by Prof. Robert Hargraves, of Dartmouth.
Feb 19 2013: Brian: This technology is sometimes hard to describe in few words. The idea here is that with unlimited amounts of electric power, synthetic liquid fuel can be cheaply synthesized from the components of air, and since it is all derived from air, burning it does not add CO2 , etc.in the combustion.(carbon neutral) So , yes, we might possibly have future cars run on "synthesized fuel" , not batteries.

Narrow your search
It's a great stylus for annotating and sketching, but you might find the Wacom Bamboo Stylus Fineline a little harder to use for long stretches of writing or printing.
Wacoms next-generation of its Intuos Creative Stylus gets some welcome changes, and the Bamboo Stylus Solo and Duo some minor updates.
The Olympus Stylus SP-100 is a problem-solver camera, giving zoom fiends a simple -- and clever -- way to keep athletes, wildlife, and other targets in your sights.
The TG-3 is just as tough as its predecessor, but gets a cool new macro trick and accessory, while the 24x compact zoom SH-1 gets styling and image stabilization to match the company's interchangeable lens cameras.
The Olympus Stylus XZ-2 iHS is an excellent bright lens enthusiast compact. At this point, though, you should skip it at its full $600 price.
For those who crave an enthusiast compact with more zoom range, the Olympus Stylus 1 should be high on your list for its excellent balance of performance, design, and features.
The TG-850 brings some firsts to the rugged point-and-shoot category to help beat out the stale competition.
Adobe Ink is a very nice stylus, though $200 is a heavy burden to lay on the entire package's slight shoulders, and the apps are solid if not spectacular.
The 8-inch VivoTab 8 is a Windows tablet that doesn't particularly stand out in a crowded field, until you discover the Wacom stylus tucked inside its body.
Wacom's smooth, elegant stylus for capacitive tablets is one of the best we've seen, and adding a pen to the end only makes it more useful: just be prepared to pay an extra 10 dollars for the privilege.

Our first shared happy home for 2013.
Xan this is gorgeous! My three girls are mesmorised with the little fairy garden you serendipitously stumbled upon with your babes, a magical location for this happy home. We are convinced it is now safely behind the purple door in the land of fairies.
(Read below the email from Xan.)
Thanks so much for sending me our Happy Home Breath.
I do hope you and your loved ones are having the most wonderful family break and that your Christmas celebrations have been overflowing with love and merriness.
My two babes and I tootled off on our walk yesterday morning with camera and Happy Home Breath tucked into the pram ready for us to release into the world. Our intention was to leave it on the picnic table next to the park/playground we were headed for, however along the way, down one of the quiet little streets leading us there, we discovered a Fairy House and garden outside the front gate of somebody's home. While we were stopped to admire it, my daughter suggested we leave our Happy Home there on the Fairy's front path. Seemed like a pretty terrific idea to me so, attached are the photos we took while adventuring and stopping to Breathe.
I chose the word Breath in the hope that whoever finds it can remember to slow down, take a deep breath and laugh in the midst of all this business that goes on at this time of year.
Keep spreading the joy and smiles and thank you for all your "Homes of Happiness".
Best wishes for this new year.
Lots of love,
Home 371: Breath – South Australia

Lau Hark-suen
1951 / B&W / D Beta / Cantonese / 95min
In her role as a blind matriarch, Ma Siu-ying shares the limelight with Pak Yin as her begrudged second daughter-in-law who bears the posthumous child of her son. Her elder sister-in-law (Lam Mui-mui), also a widow, plots with the butler (Lau Hark-suen) to usurp the family fortunes by getting rid of the baby. By a twist of fate, the boy is adopted by the matriarch as the heir and entrusted to the care of the sisterin- law, who raises him to become a philandering spendthrift. All the while, the mother has suppressed the knowledge of the child as her flesh and blood out of fear, until she is acquitted of the framed murder of the matriarch, leading to the happy reunion of the mother and son. Ma gave an extraordinarily measured, nuanced performance as a superstitious blind woman, particularly in the scene in which spirits are summoned in the hopes of curing her son.

New Donation
I recently put out into the carnivorous plant world online my need for some small Sarracenia starts. Tony C. came through with an amazing donation of 50 seedlings. I have potted them and put them into the grow room to begin to harden off and ready for the greenhouse. Once school starts these plant will be placed in elementary classrooms to grow and then planted in the Rehder Garden by the children.
Thank you Tony for your donation. The kids are going to love them!

Private support has allowed Wagner College to build upon its commitment as an educational institution, providing academic and scholarship programs to a diverse student body. The generosity of those who give to the College makes a crucial difference in Wagner College's ability to fulfill its mission.
Unrestricted or Restricted Gifts
Corporate Matching Gifts
Endowed Gifts
IRA Rollover (Reinstated)
Wagner has benefited from generous gifts from members of the Wagner community who have taken advantage of incentives for tax-free charitable giving that the IRA Rollover provides. A Relief Act was passed on January 1, 2013 with a few key changes. We hope that you will find this, the accompanying Update Regarding the American Taxpayer Relief Act: Extension of the IRA Rollover helpful and informative.
Capital Donations
Naming Opportunities
Assets to Give
Life income arrangements vary, but most options offer the following financial benefits:
- An income for life to the donor and second beneficiary
- A charitable income tax deduction
- A higher rate of return than many current investments
- A reduction or avoidance of capital gains taxes; and
- Savings on estate and gift taxes; and professional investment management.
Charitable Remainder Trusts
Gift Planning
Philanthropy at Wagner College takes numerous forms. While many individuals make current or outright gifts (such as a gift to the Wagner Fund or to a specific capital project), others choose to defer their support until a specific point in the future or their death. This investment in the future of Wagner College is known as a deferred or planned gift. Some deferred gifts produce an income for the lifetime of the donors and a secondary beneficiary and most result in income tax and estate tax benefits.
Planned gifts that can be changed by the donor are known as revocable gifts. Such gifts allow the donor to retain control of an asset for his/her lifetime. These gifts often come to Wagner in the future and often provide estate tax benefits. Revocable gifts include bequests by will, gifts from IRAS and pension plans and some gifts of life insurance.
Gifts that cannot be changed, or rescinded, by the donor are known as irrevocable gifts. These include some gifts of life insurance, charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts, charitable lead trusts, and retained life estate. Irrevocable gifts involve an immediate transfer of assets to benefit Wagner at a specific time in the future, or upon the death of the donor or/ and his/her secondary beneficiary. In many cases, the donor receives an immediate income tax deduction, annual income and capital gains and estate tax benefits.

Zero Hour 8 p.m., Channel 5
Dr. Green lives! OK, not Dr. Green, but Anthony Edwards does return to TV in this elaborately plotted, "Da Vinci Code"-esque new series. Edwards told reporters at the recent Television Critics Association press tour that he hadn't expected to return to TV after "ER," but he couldn't deny this script. "I read it, and I could not put it down. And I just said, 'If these guys are crazy enough to tell this story, I want to do it with them.' " Creator Paul Scheuring also promised he knows where the show is going, unlike other creators of serialized shows he's met over the years. "Before I even put pen to paper in any kind of sense in this, I'm like, 'What's the coolest MacGuffin you can come up with? What are the last frames of this series?' " Remember he said that. (See review, Page 6.) Pictured (from left): Addison Timlin, Scott Michael Foster, and Edwards.

FOND DU LAC, WI (WTAQ) - A restaurant in Fond du Lac is damaged by fire Friday.
Fire crews get the call just after 6 a.m. to the McDonald's at 770 West Johnson Street. Upon arrival, they saw heavy black smoke coming from a roof vent.
Everyone inside the restaurant managed to get out safely.
The blaze was contained to the deep fryer area and was quickly put out. However, firefighters say the area was extensively damaged.
Firefighters are still trying to figure out how the fire started. They say they are working with the building owner to make sure the fire suppression system will be working.

Blaine places fifth against larger schools at Panther Classic in Snohomish
Published on Wed, Jan 9, 2013 by
Ian Ferguson

The Borderites held their own as a the sole 1A team in a pool of larger wrestling squads at the Panther Classic, with six athletes placing in the top five for their weight class, one athlete winning his division, and the entire team placing fifth out of 16 schools with 112 points.
The January 5 tournament began at 10 a.m. on the mats of Snohomish High School. Blaine's athletes wrestled well throughout the day, with most progressing into subsequent matches.
Senior captain Caleb Johnson was the 220-lb. champion, tallying two pins on his way to a 7-5 victory over Lynden's Caleb
Senior captain Justin Belding placed third at 152 lbs., and senior captain Jon Stewart placed third at 160 lbs.
Junior Mikey Antczak placed third at 285 lbs., and junior Christian Sharp placed fifth at 145 lbs.
Freshman Stuey Rasar progressed to the semifinals of his division and placed fifth in the 106-lb. division. Fellow freshman and 106-lb. competitor Kyle Gonzales missed the tournament due to an elbow injury.
Coach Craig Foster said he was encouraged by his team's performance.
"It's good to wrestle against these larger schools," he said. "It gives us a feel for the tougher state competition, and when we do well in a tough matchup it builds confidence. Overall we did well today."
Looking forward to the state tournament, Foster said the day's wrestling prepared Blaine well for the 25th Annual Mat Classic in Tacoma, scheduled for February 15 and 16.

I have been dying to blog the images from the last workshop for months now but being a perfectionist I wanted to have the new blog active first. The workshop was held in July and at that time I was more than half way through the design process of the blog which heavily influence the direction of the workshop shoot. So it's fitting that I would wait for the blog launch to post these photos because they really do go so well with the new look!
This year has been crazy, with so many twists and turns but one of the things I have loved and enjoyed is working with my dear friend Victoria in organising another workshop. Victoria and I joke that we share a brain, we both like the same things and will often send each other links to things that we've both bookmarked. We even share celebrity boyfriends (not that I want to share George Cloony or Hugh Grant with anyone) ha ha. While I'm good at the photography Victoria is utterly brilliant at the marketing and branding. Together we compliment each other very well.
Last year we had a blast coming up with a totally unique and visually stunning concept shoot for our first workshop, it was a lot of fun and we were thrilled with the results. But we know that it's not always possible for other photographers or for couples to come up with something so ambitious as a styled boat shoot! With that in mind we decided that for this workshop we would work with what we had access to. The items in our own homes would be enough but we would make them even better by using them beautifully. Thankfully we both love French Country and Vintage styles and our homes are decorated similarly so between us we had more than enough props to use. Location wise we decided to use the bush at my home for our shoot which just happened to be in bloom with different varieties of Wattle. Thus our concept was born! Very Australian and very vintage – Romance de Wattle.
Our good friend Sally Thompson from Blushing Blooms assisted with the floral styling, her bouquets are always to die for and I love working with her. The too-good-to-eat cupcakes were made by Caroline at Design My Cupcake, I've never seen anything like them before. They were simply amazing. I love working with local artists and suppliers and forming friendships with like minded individuals, it's always a pleasure working with people like Sally and Caroline.
Our lovely couple Emma and James couldn't have been better models for us. Not only were they incredibly comfortable being in front of the camera, they were super sweet and so much fun to be around. Thanks Emma and James!
Lastly, our workshop attendees this year blew me away with their business savvy and their amazing skills. Most of the girls were only new to photography but they already had great websites and branding, they impressed me so much! With such a good start and a willingness to grow and learn I know they will rock the photography world.
Here are a some of my favourite images from the day. Enjoy!

Yea I Don't Get It Eitherby Doug Mataconis
White House spokesperson Dana Perino tries to explain Dick Cheney's bizarre assertion that he's not part of the Executive Branch:
"Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined." Patrick Henry
White House spokesperson Dana Perino tries to explain Dick Cheney's bizarre assertion that he's not part of the Executive Branch:
Well the plain text of the Constitution seems to be completely at the discretion of the reader nowadays.
We have the VP stating his office isn't part of the Executive. We've got Speaker Pelosi doing the State Department's job visiting the Middle East. We've got DC residents demanding reps/votes in the House and Senate even though DC isn't a state. We've got President Bush using signing statements to say he won't follow/enforce legislation he's signing into law….
Why do we even bother with a Constitution anymore?Comment by trav.is — June 25, 2007 @ 10:45 pm
After watching the clip it appears that Perino is trying to cover for the White House because they know that Cheney's claims have put them in a hole and that their legal position is now untenable.
She acknowledges that Cheney as VP has executive functions and that he has legislative functions, but she's subtly trying to claim that he therefore is bound by the laws of neither branch, and it doesn't seem anyone's buying that. If anything, his assumed responsibilities should mean that he is bound by the laws of both, otherwise it would essentially mean that the VP is accountable to no one. And I find it difficult to believe that the courts, or even the Bush-friendly Supreme Court would sign off on the argument that the office of the Vice President is authorized to do whatever it damn well pleases without being accountable to any laws.
Unfortunately, taking the issue through the courts or removing Cheney (or Bush) from office are the only way this situation is going to get resolved because if the Bush administration has taught us anything it's that they'll never fix a problem in their own administration or kick someone out of office unless they can do so without admitting mistakes, accepting responsibility or making themselves look worse. Of course that's really been the fatal flaw of the entire Bush administration…fortunately for Bush the Democrats are too stupid to find a way to capitalize on it.Comment by UCrawford — June 26, 2007 @ 11:31 am

MARION COUNTY, TN. (WRCB) -- The six-month mark of Roger Tant's disappearance has passed and still no new leads in the case.
Neighbor James Blevins says Tant was a homebody and since being reported missing he has had questions of his own.
He finds it strange it took Tant's sister, not his wife, to report him missing months after no one heard from him.
"I talked to him from time to time, but he more or less took care of his chickens and stayed in his house," says Blevins.
Marion County Sheriff "Bo" Burnett says, "That has made it hard on us and everyone else, but it is an odd case to me."
Burnett has led several search teams in the areas around Tant's home and the woods near Blevins' property.
The one place investigators haven't searched is Tant's house.
Burnett says his wife has refused to talk to investigators, creating dead ends.
"It would be a great help if we can sit down and talk to her, but she has an attorney and he has instructed us not to talk to her," Burnett says.
With a heavy price tag looming, the search teams have been put on hold until new information breaks.
Burnett, however, has now added a $1,000 reward to the case as incentive for new leads.
Blevins hopes this effort will shed light on his neighbor's disappearance.
You are urged to call the Marion County Sheriff's Office if you have any information on the case.

New details have emerged in what led up to a man police believe shot and killed his brother outside an office building before killing himself.
There were warnings two weeks before last Thursday's deadly shooting that included a letter left for the shooter's landlord at a Merriam apartment complex.
The letter came with Robert Pruitt's November rent check, a Johnson County assistant district attorney said, suggesting Pruitt might be dead before the next rent payment was due.
An ex-girlfriend told police Pruitt was bipolar.
"The thing about bipolar disorder is once they get in that mania stage, they're like, I'm fine, I feel good, I don't need anything, and they stop taking their medication," therapist Susan Howard-Perry said.
Howard-Perry has treated maximum security prisoners with bipolar disorder. Though she doesn't know the history of Pruitt's family, she says many families face a version of The Boy Who Cried Wolf.
"An analogy might be an individual with depression, severe depression, who says all the time, 'I'm going to hurt myself,' but they never really do. And sometimes, as a family, this becomes the norm," Howard-Perry said.
That might explain why the 58-year-old shooter's younger brother didn't appear concerned that Pruitt's threats would become reality.
Robert Pruitt allegedly killed his brother, Todd Pruitt, in a Mission parking lot last Thursday while his brother was walking into work.
Police said Robert Pruitt then shot himself several hours later near 102nd and Holmes streets as they were closing in on him.
On Nov. 2, the same day as the landlord's ominous letter, there was a note to Robert Pruitt's sister specifically indicating he planned to kill Todd, as well as himself.
The assistant district attorney said police checked on Todd Pruitt and filled him in, but the younger brother did not seem concerned.
"It is draining dealing with someone like that. It is draining, and they can only do so much. And they have their own lives to live as well," Howard-Perry said.
From Nov. 2 on, the assistant district attorney said, police used Robert Pruitt's cell phone to locate him. The pings hit all over and outside the metro.
Every place police went, Robert Pruitt was gone, one step ahead of them, all the way to his final place where he was already dead when police arrived.

"These are great. We used a photo that had a lot of navy blue in it, which complements the color of the card. We put our family on it instead of just a couple. The paper and printing, as always, are great quality. We feel very comfortable sending these out as thank you notes for our daughter's christening gifts."
"I really liked these thank you notes because they were printed on fabulous paper and the colors were exactly what I wanted! My notes to my friends will be given in style!"
"I have ordered this card twice after enjoying it so much the first time. I found it versatile and the perfect size for a short note...sometimes a thank you note or a sympathy note...it worked well for both. I deleted the "thank you" heading and inserted my name at the top. That left a little more room to write."
"These are so cute - I use them as thank you notes for my son. His room is little world traveler-themed so the cards are perfect for him!"
"This is such a pretty little card. I love the quality of the paper and printing. Impeccable service and products every time I have used Tiny prints. The only thing I don't like is the logo on the back..."
