Bowmont Merino Sheep
Our Bowmont Merinos are based on the old Bowmont sheep developed by The Macaulay Land Use Research Institute in Scotland over 25 years ago.They crossed Saxon Merino (the finest wooled of all the Merino types) with white Shetland ewes and then crossed back to yet another Saxon Merino. The first generation of "Bowmonts" were 75% Saxon Merino and 25% white Shetland. For those in the know, the Saxon genetics were from the world-reknowned Sierra Park stud with some input from Merryville via Ringmaster. Mouterre Silky was another famous sire.
After that first generation, much tweaking and refining took place with the addition of more pure Saxon Merino genetics along the way to balance and correct the fleece. The Shetland characteristics were entirely bred out as it was realised the hardiness required was present already in the Merinos and were a real nuisance in developing and refining the wool.
The aim was to produce a hill sheep with outstandingly good fine wool that would provide an extra income for struggling Scottish sheep farmers. 20 years of hard work by scientists covering fibre biology, animal physiology and genetics produced a stunningly good, consistent wool of 15-20 microns on the back of a moderately hardy sheep.
However, no research into marketing was done and Scottish hill farmers were never able to make sufficient premium from the wool to justify the extra work involved. The meat carcass was not sufficent compensation and those that did take the sheep on kept crossing them to improve lamb conformation immediately losing wool quality - much to the frustration of the scientists!
The Macaulay project closed their research farm in 2006 just as the farm researchers had finally stabilised the animals into a consistent, reliable breed. In the absence of interest from Scottish farmers who had found the sheep did not thrive on the hills and were not giving them a good enough return on wool alone, most of the flock was culled.
We were asked to take on some of the best because we were already well known to Macaulay staff for our strong interest in, and support of the Cashmere goat project - run from the same farm. This we did gladly because we could not bear to think of all the years of work going to waste.
Now, 8 years on, we have the only provably pure, fully traceable Bowmont flock in the country with complete breeding records back to the original animals bred 25 years ago plus full fibre quality test results. We have never had any other breed of sheep and because we have very high, export health status, we are securly fenced all round to prevent any contact with other farm animals..We now use the name BOWMONT MERINO to ensure that our sheep are distinguishable from any first cross animals and also because we continue the work of the Macaulay Institute by adding in more pure Saxon genetics as necessary.This is done by using Artificial Insemmination and imported semen. We run an entirely closed flock here to prevent any diesease entering the farm.
We still work with some of the original Macaulay scientists who developed the breed and use the same laboratory for fibre quality testing that was used during the project. We have further refined the wool down to the 14-19µ range. Our aim is now to breed animals between 15-17 microns only. This is the area with most commercial potential for us.
All our sheep are tested for quality before joining the breeding flock and at regular intervals after that. BUT, fibre diameter is only one of a host of criteria we check when making decisions. we have a very precious genetic pool here and cannot afford to waste or underuse any of it. It is a complex task. We now work very closely with Australian technical experts to help us keep on track.
The sheep are hardy here on the edge of Exmoor where temperatures have got down to -12C. They cope well with rain and their feet are very sound. We have no foot rot on this farm! They make good mothers, unlike pure 100% Saxon Merinos that are notorious for getting up and leaving their new born lambs. We find them quiet and easy to handle as they are a mid-sized sheep with ewes getting to a maximum of 60kg.
We concentrate on producing "weather-proof" sheep. If a Merino can cope with Exmoor weather it can cope with anything.
We recently started freezing genetic material (semen and embryos) from the sheep in order to keep them safe from disasters like Foot And Mouth. This is an incredibly expensive insurance policy but is essential to safeguard these wonderful animals. Going back to first base and starting again is not an option. The huge numbers required plus the many many years of work are not practical for the individual farmer.Far better to work with the stable genetic base we have here already.
The wool of course, is to die for. We have never been in the British Wool Marketing Board system as we are exempt and we realised right from the first shearing that our wool would fly off the farm as soon as it was off the sheep - and so it has proved! We are regularly approached by commercial companies wanting to buy the crop.
Five years ago we decided to link up with Finisterre, a Cornish surfwear company that shares our commitment to the long term future of the sheep. They are buying nearly all our wool now for turning into superb luxury goods. They have until recently used only Australian Merino. Following extensive testing by Leeds University textile lab, they decided to use Bowmont Merino with a view eventually, when our flock grows, to substituting it for all their foreign Merino.
We are obsessed with quality control in our sheep. Breeding for wool is specialised, just like breeding for meat. WE DO NOT SELL BREEDING STOCK at the moment We have such a precious genetic resource here that we cannot afford to lose any of it. Developing and refining this wool is a complex technical job and we need all the sheep we can produce to do it well and efficiently. However we do work with two professional farmers with suitable experience and who share our MV Accredited Health status and our high welfare policies. They currently run wether flocks for us, selling the wool back to us after shearing.
Producing Superfine wool from our Bowmont Merino sheep is our passion and obsession. We love our sheep and we hope they have happy, contented lives here with us.

Sunday, January 31, 7:00 pm - Mystical Music and Dance of the Middle East- A feast for the senses, celebrating the ancient rich cultures
of the three Abrahamic Faiths.
The Yuval Ron Ensemble
Featuring: the stunning vocalist Najwa Gibran, Armenian woodwind master Norik Manoukian and folkloric dancers Maya Karasso and Miriam Peretz
Location: All Saints Church - 132 North Euclid Ave, Pasadena, CA 91101
Admission: Suggested Donation $20 - For more information: Call Norma Sigmund at 626-583-2734
Over the Summer, I had the privilege of being invited to the Yuval Ron Ensemble concert in Brentwood. When I heard that they often toured with trained dancers I knew that I was in for a treat, but I had no idea just how moving the Judeo-Arabic influenced rhythms and vocals could be. In addition to the mesmerizing music, the oral stories told by Yuval and others had so much depth and meaning for my personal journey that a few times I felt like my higher Self was talking directly to me. Yuval and I have since become good friends and spend a lot of our time sharing music of the worlds and discussing world peace and coexistence amongst peoples and nations.
This concert in Pasadena is NOT TO BE MISSED!!! I will be there with a huge group of friends and I would love to have you join us in celebrating life through inspirational music from various cultures of the world.

Elmbrook School District officials began preparing for the worst at Tuesday's board meeting after Gov. Scott Walker unveiled his two-year budget plan last week in Madison.
Assistant Superintendent for Finance Keith Brightman said the revenue limits in the proposal could have the district facing a $2.3 million deficit next year.
"From my perspective, I see potential collective bargaining impacts," he said.
Board president Thomas Gehl called the past two years "watershed times" because of how many changes to public education have occurred.
"Regardless of what one's views are on the political spectrum, I think it's fair to say that public education has had to adjust significantly across the state," he said.
Walker's $68 billion budget proposal provides only a slight increase to K-12 public schools, while increasing tax dollars to expand publicly funded private voucher schools to at least nine new cities.
Walker's proposed increase in general aid for public schools would be about $129 million statewide.
For traditional districts like Elmbrook, per pupil spending would see no increase over the next two years.
The governor's proposal offers a $64 million incentive for the state's best-performing schools. Brightman said he would expect Elmbrook to qualify, but exactly how much money the district would get remains unclear, if not uncertain.
Actually, a lot remains unclear. It will be several more weeks until the Wisconsin Legislative Fiscal Bureau — a nonpartisan agency of the state Legislature — provides its analysis.
The governor's budget proposal still must pass the Legislature and be signed into law. Before ending back on Walker's desk for approval, the budget likely will be modified.
Elmbrook Schools officials hope changes could mean an increase in per pupil spending. Board members announced at Tuesday's meeting that they have planned a lobbying effort to sway state lawmakers.
The district will host two superintendent chats next month to help engage the public.

PLAYERS: Ventrell Jenkins
TEAMS: Cincinnati Bengals
TEAMS: Cincinnati Bengals
Yes, Ventrell Jenkins had a short offseason stint with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2009. Yes, Jenkins was arrested last week for beating his fiancee. Yes, Jenkins was unfazed when cops blasted him with a Taser multiple times. Jenkins, a former Kentucky Wildcat, is on the Montreal Alouettes roster but hasn't played since suffering a knee injury in September. Back home in South Carolina, cops say they caught the 6-2, 305 lb. defensive tackle rearranging his fiancee's face. According to the police report, cops caught Jenkins punching fiance Deidre Hudson, 44, repeatedly in the face while saying, "I love you." The reporting officer noted that Hudson "had severe lacerations to her face, extreme swelling to the right side of her face and bruising to the point of her being unrecognizable." Yes, we went searching for Jenkins' Facebook account. The bad news: he has a daughter. According to the The State (Columbia), Jenkins is lucky he didn't get shot by cops. As Hudson lay unconscious on the ground, the deputy fired his Taser at Jenkins, but Jenkins grabbed the Taser. The deputy then drew his pistol, but was immediately bitten on the right calf by a pit bull. Another deputy arrived, and while he and the first deputy were trying to handcuff Jenkins, the pit bull then bit the second deputy. Filed under: Cuff 'Em

We all know that information moves extremely fast on the internet and that with the enormous data amounts uploaded worldwide it is hard to keep the track of everything. This new change of pace on the information levels we desire and can afford has managed to give a new meaning to the word multitasking. Even though you are trying to focus on specific task you are probably looking at a friend´s picture on Facebook whilst re-tweeting something on Twitter or even having a conversation on Skype too. But have you ever wondered what is really going on the Internet?
Here is an info-graphic about "What truly happens on the web every 60 seconds". After you have a look at this you might want to reconsider the content and timing of your posts and instead of just posting "YOLOs" or wishing "good morning" you should probably want to give more interesting and eye catchy content to your viewers. After all you are only competing in a 60 second race…..
There is a network for every need
There are thousands of companies starting each year looking to find some way to tie themselves into the social media industry. Often times it can be rather difficult for people to keep track of what services do what. In 2008, Altimeter Group principal analyst and author Brian Solis, in association with design firm JESS3, created The Conversation Prism, a research-driven infographic that looks at the social web and its different divisions. Now, it has been updated with the addition of categories to account for the new services being developed today, including enterprise social networks, social marketplaces, influence, quantified self, and service networking. The Conversation Prism is designed to help companies looking to incorporate social media into their programs by providing a...
"Visual representation of the true expansiveness of the Social Web and the conversations that define it"
At first the infographic can look difficult to understand but let us explain it a little. In the centre of the Prism locates the person interested on developing a social media campaign: YOU. From here, you can shift the outer circles accordingly to fit your intent, whether it's about value, purpose, transparency, commitment, or vision. After that, it's just a shift of circles in order to find the tools that properly align to your business goals.
The newest version of the Conversation Prism has seen 122, with 111 new ones added. In the next two years, with the state of companies being acquired, dissolved, founded, it will be fascinating to see what the new social media landscape will look like.

Password Page Protection Software allows you to ad
Password Page Protection Software allows you to add password protection to any web page. It generates password protection code which is added to the top of a web page to prevent unauthorized access. When the web page is called from the server the password protection code runs before the web page is sent to the user. Instead a password request page is displayed in the users browser. When the user submits a password it is compared to the password set in the page protection code. If they match the protected web page is sent from the server. This provides a high level of security and reliability. The code is fully processed on the server and no secure information can be sent to the user until a password match is confirmed. Key Features: protection code runs on your server ensuring that protection runs regardless of browser settings; quick and easy protection code generation; Post, Get, Cookie and Session options available for user password retention; Password Generator with Length, Upper Case, Lower Case, Numerical options included. Application: Make confidential information available on the internet but restrict access to password holders; allows protected remote access to web pages providing a secure means of distribution and access; use password protection code to access multiple pages with the same password or set up each with an individual password; exclude previous password holders from web page access by changing the set password in the web page password protection code; operate a time or event based password access system; exclude multiple users from accessing web pages from the same computer; use the Password Generator to quickly and easily create random passwords to your specifications whenever a password is required. To run Password Page Protection your server must support the php scripting language. Most commercial web servers support php.
dlTube.net did not scan Password Page Protection Software 1.1 for viruses, adware, spyware or other badware.
For your own safety, we recommend that you always have an antivirus, with virus definitions up to date, installed on your computer when downloading and installing programs from the web.

Didn't plan on spending your summer watching another cop show? That's about to change. Meet Israeli stunner Inbar Lavi, the star of Fox's new action-packed drama Gang Related.
Photographed by Diana King
How did you prepare for your role as a member of the SFPD gang task force?
I did a lot of research, and I got to ride along with a police gang unit. I can't give out all the details, but let's just say what I saw was crazy. Cops are constantly in life-threatening situations. They're real-life superheroes.
Did you have any prior experience firing weapons?
Yes, but my character, Vee, is an excellent shot, so I spent a lot of time with my friends at the shooting range, on top of training with the show's weapons consultant. Plus, I wanted to make sure I was comfortable handling a gun on-camera and off—you know, just in case.
Along with the training, what's your favorite part about playing Vee?
The best part about Vee is that she's a woman in a man's world. She needs to fight to prove that she can keep up with the dudes around her, physically and mentally, and that's inspiring. Any woman who can take her femininity and sexuality and use it as a weapon to get the job done, that's sexy.
With Terry O'Quinn and RZA as part of the squad, you manage to hold your own among some real icons.
The one TV show I never missed was Lost, so I was stoked to find out that Terry was cast, and even more excited to discover he's such a gentleman and one of the coolest dudes on the planet. We play guitar and serenade each other between takes. With RZA it was a bit different, though.
Why is that?
I had no idea who he was. Nor did I know what Wu-Tang meant! But one day I asked Bobby—that's what I call him—"So you're a rapper, right? Can you spit a little Flava-Flav?" And he went into a mind-blowing hip-hop spout, just preaching. That's when I realized what a legend was in front of me.
Do people recognize you a lot when you're back home in Israel?
There's definitely a lot of pride and support, but I never actually did any on-camera work when I was growing up there. I attended a dance academy and majored in ballet and modern dance. I was a closeted actor.
Are you hiding any other talents?
I'm good at picking up languages. I was introduced to English in third grade, but I worked in a video store for four years, and I watched every American film in stock to perfect my accent, since I knew I would need it for acting. Now I'm working on my Russian for an upcoming episode, and I'm hoping to be fluent by the time we shoot it.
So what do you like to do when you're not working?
I enjoy getting dressed up and going to a nice restaurant. But I'm not going to lie; I'm more of a pajamas, Breaking Bad, takeout kind of gal. That's just how classy I am!

Get your fear fix at Screamworld
We here at NewsFix see a lot of terrifying things, so it's pretty hard to scare us.
At Screamworld though, they take fear to a whole higher level.
Meet the professional, Andrew McCoughan. He has been scaring folks for 12 years and got his start at Fright Fest in AstroWorld back in the day.
"I learned at Six Flags, they had a pretty rigorous training process," says McCoughan. "So it was like, we actually went to zombie university, we got a degree, a little piece of paper is all it was, but it said 'oh you can scare people really good ya know."
Andrew is an actor, and when the sun goes down his curtain comes up.
Celso Silerro has been doing these actors make up for the last decade and is also a former Fright Fest alum.
Celso can go through an entire canister of white paint every day during the Halloween season.
These actors see a varying audience of all ages and really have to get that real time sense for when to go all out, or when to hold back.
"Some of the managers will come through and if there's a group that comes through that you just know is definitely terrified, they`ll give you the cut off sign. So you know to kinda just give them a good glare, let em know that you`re seeing them, but you`re not going to get in their face too bad."
But watch out for with the looks you're giving them. Haunted houses are in fact an interactive event.

Just days before Christmas, hundreds of thousands of wreaths adorn soldiers' graves. Wreaths across America is a way to recognize the service, dedication and sacrifice of our fallen soliders.
Fort Stewart held its annual Wreaths for Warrior's Walk where 466 soldiers were honored.
"These family members lost their loved one in a traumatic way," said Bruce Muncher, Wreaths for Warrior's Walk Co-founder.
But for those who are still grieving, this is way to help them heal.
"They come back every year, they enjoy seeing each other," said Muncher.
Wreaths were placed on graves throughout the nation.
For one father in Birmingham, it means a lot. His son Jonathan was just 22 years old when he was killed in Iraq in 2005.
"Of course I miss my son everyday but at Christmas time you have all the memories coming back and it's a little tougher," said Gary Smith.
Even though it's a day for remembrance, some veterans in South Carolina are reminded how their journey started.
"Ted has the distinction of being one of these guys that was so dumb that he enlisted in the Navy at the age of 15. He snuck in underage and served three years before he was even 18," said John Cummer.
"I was pretty much old enough to join by the time I got out," said Ted Teagle.
And for the soldiers who are still serving, it's a surreal day as they march for their friends.
"Our comrades, we honor them every year by doing this," said Lt. Col. Gregory Bryan Walker, 3rd ID Chaplain.
There were 15 services in Georgia and 14 in South Carolina.

Drew Little, at one time suspended for the first four games of Georgia State's season, will back up starting quarterback Bo Schlechter in Friday's season opener against Clark Atlanta.
Little was suspended during the offseason by coach Bill Curry for a violation of undisclosed team rules. However, Curry said there were numerous factors that led him to reduce the suspension. The most important was that he said Little endured as much punishment as any player that Curry said he has ever coached without complaining or slacking off. That punishment included missing spring practices, going on more than 30 morning runs, and 20 hours of study hall a week during the spring and summer.
However, just because Little is the backup don't expect to see him play on Friday. Curry said that Schlechter will play most of the snaps against Clark Atlanta.
Little, a native of McDonough, was last year's starter, passing for 2,102 yards and 18 touchdowns. He hasn't been made available to speak to reporters.
Secondly, because backup Kelton Hill was also suspended for at least the opener, Curry said he didn't think it was fair to force freshman Ben McLane into action and risk depriving him of a redshirt season. Curry said he hasn't decided if Hill will be forced to sit out any more games.
Should Schlechter need a break or sustain an injury against Clark Atlanta, the Panthers have been working on a "Wildcat" package.
State rivalries
Curry said he would love to play more in-state games, such as the one against Clark Atlanta. However, the CAA schedule the Panthers will add in 2012 will make such in-state games difficult.
Clark Atlanta, Morehouse and Valdosta State, teams Curry said he at one time was interested in scheduling, are Division II programs. Assuming Georgia State would defeat them, it wouldn't help them earn an at-large berth in the FCS (formerly Division I-AA) playoffs.
Because the CAA is so tough – its teams have won or played for the past five national championships — he said there's not much incentive to add another good in-state team like Georgia Southern, which has won six national titles, to the schedule as one of the three non-conference games. However, Curry didn't rule it out. The Panthers played two team from Georgia last season — Shorter (NAIA) and Savannah State (FCS).
Running game
Offensive coordinator John Bond and center Ben Jacoby said an improved offensive line should improve the Panthers' running game this season.
The team averaged 123.3 yards per game last season. Its leading rusher was Hill, a backup quarterback. However, Jacoby said another year of playing together, improved depth and work in the weight room should make for a more effective unit.
"We're concentrating heavily on the run game," Jacoby said. "We've practiced situations so that we have the experience running plays. The offensive line in particular has been working on keeping the pads low and on the explosion off of the ball. That in combination with the work in strength and conditioning will lead to more yards per carry."
Bond said because the team had just 29 practices together before last year's opener it was hard to develop the chemistry necessary to complete some of the blocking schemes. With a fall, spring and August worth of practices, he said the team should be much better at running the ball.
Stopping the run
Defensive coordinator John Thompson said an improved attitude by the defense should reduce the 187.4 rushing yards they allowed per game last season. And he said it's not fair to blame the defensive line for the issues.
"People can say it's the D-line or linebackers, but it involves a little bit of everything," he said. "We've made some adjustments to be better against the run. It's more of a team commitment to play more physical, more gap control, be more responsible."
He did say that he thinks the defensive line has improved more than any other group. The group shuffled personnel in the offseason, switching Christo Bilukidi to end from tackle, Kalan Jenkins from tackle to nose tackle, and adding transfer A.J. Portee to the other side of the three-man line.
"Our D-line has been more committed to doing the right things," Thompson said. "We've got good things at linebacker and secondary, but the way the game is now, it comes down to being physical up front."

This is good! I believe he will be ready for the Old dominion or Jacksonville State Game. I expect great things from this young man this season. He should be better prepared to make better decisions. He should be more experienced and definitely has learned a life long lesson. However, I am excited to see Bo and his athleticism.

Good for Drew. It sound like he has been humble and hard working since his unnamed infraction. I am sure that Coach Curry wouldn't have reduced the sentence unless he was sure that Drew has his head on straight.

So Curry just lets Little off the hook because he doesn't have anymore QB's…wow, real class act there Coach.
September 1st, 2011

@AllTheWay He did what he was supposed to do. It had nothing to do with QB depth and everything to do with Little's attitude.
That being said, I do not believe Drew will play tomorrow night barring an injury to Bo.

Thinking it is probably a combination. He said it himself that it wouldn't be fair to McClane to not let him RS his first season and I happen to agree. He's basically said "You messed up, but have gone above and beyond to fix it. You are not suspended but have to play behind our punter." He also said the other day at the presser that the punishments on the team have resulted in a net gain the way some of the guys handled it. To me, it sounded like he was referring to Little and how he has fixed whatever issues he was having.

I sooo am a former GSU fan… Drew was suspended for 4 games for reasons not mentioned is very interesting and i think that it is such a cover up for him…even if Hill was suspended for 1 game he is serving his suspension,, Drew;'s suspension should have been upheld b/c i'm pretty sure the reason was substantial…. Good old boy COVER UP at its best !!!!!!!!!

@ataltheway, there wouldn't be another program besides Penn State that I would want my son to be a part of when it comes to integrity. If Coach Curry feels this man repaid his debt, I would have to believe him.
September 1st, 2011
12:59 pm
Glad to see you guys are siding with Curry just because you're fans of Ga State. Once your program matures a little, maybe you'll question status quo and wonder why he is no longer suspended. Until then, keep on doin what you're doin.
September 1st, 2011

I'm not Coach Curry but in nearly every public comment this Spring when asked about Little, he's exceeded his every expectation. Why would Seniors endorse someone that was obviously not taking himself serious?
Pain of discipline, pain of regret. You choose.
September 1st, 2011
1:17 pm
this is SUCH crap. Little is suspended for 4 games and Hill only suspended for ONE, however Curry decided to lessen Little's suspension to NONE? wouldn't it make more sense and be logical to lessen Hill's suspense seeing how it would be less of a stretch. alright.
September 1st, 2011
1:36 pm
@WOW LB Olefemi Opanubi was suspended indefinitely then worked his way back. Fred Barnes was suspended for Spring practice and quit then came back.
BTW, Curry didn't suspend Hill. The University did.
If you prove that you can atone for mistakes, you deserve a second chance, right?
September 1st, 2011

I would have expected a reduction to one game, but none? That's a surprise.
Either way, let's get it on tomorrow!

Another Henry County Hawk doing better! I wonder if Patterson (Stanford) or Ambles (USC), Little's favorite targets in high school, are gonna get some playing time this year?
September 1st, 2011
1:56 pm
@WoW. Curry doesn't have the power to reduce Hill's suspension. That suspension was issued by the Dean of Students? Correct? Someone correct me there if I'm wrong, but I believe there is a one game suspension from the school and Curry has the power to suspend him from more games if he chooses. So, if he chooses not to suspend Hill, he will have effectively given them the same amount.
September 1st, 2011

Can't wait for the game tomorrow night! Looking for a big win out of the Panthers. I think we'll be much improved this year although our record may not show it because of the overall tougher schedule. GO PANTHERS!

This program will never last, having attended graduate school at Georgia State it is obvious the student body is not going to support the team. A large majority of the students are foreign and the rest are not your typical football fan. The rare few who are football fans already root for a real school like UGA, GT, Georgia Southern. The campus/buildings are old and littered with homeless scum with no attractive girls. Why any recruits decide to go there blows my mind.
September 1st, 2011
2:50 pm
Glad to hear Little is back. I have a feeling he'll be even better this season! the suspensions or reductions are not for us to be concerned about, as much as it is to get those guys back on the field and stay in line with the rules.
and @Ricky, the only thing I agree with you about is the homeless population around campus. all your other points are debatable and are found at every other campus you will find in the country or even just GA for that matter.
Go Panthers!

What???? Coach Curry ,you need to go into politics.Your answer regarding future scheduling was totally elusive.Do you want to play more in-state games or not? I know.I know. GSU is D1 and Valdosta State is D2,but it would be great gate,low travel cost,and good exposure for GSU in South Georgia.Come on ,coach! Let's play! Go Panthers and Blazers !

Ricky didn't go to GSU. He's obviously never been on campus. What a troll.
I don't care if the Panthers play the Division II schools like Clark Atlanta or Valdosta State, but I would like to see them schedule other FCS schools, like Georgia Southern.

Ricky,good way to get some attention!! Calling the homeless scum is pretty heartless. I am way sure that you are safe from anything perilous that will cause you to lose your home. You are immune from such degradation. A millionaire I presume? Well anyway. GSU is GSU. Everthing has to be what it is. It is an urban institution that is growing. By the way there is a 1 Billion dollar effort under way to replace several and build new buildings. Look for the information. I am sure that you will be able to research it. Or, you may be able to get one of your servants to do that for you. Why would'nt someone not want to attend a premiere research institution. Think student- athlete in that order. Try to see if you can be accepted into Westwood College before you speak again.

Glad Drew is back, he paid his penalty. Check the scoreboards folks, dosen't look like 10-1 is totally out of reach GO PANTHERS. Please CBC get the kids under control after tomorrow's win. ODU is a good team and we do not need anoither Lambuth situation.

Yea cannot wait to play ODU, JSU and USA. I believe those boys are going to be unpleasantly surprised in 2011 with the GSU PANTHERS! In fact, we told the USA trolls a few weeks back that they had better tighten their chin straps when they play N.C. State.They are going to get their bells rung for the first time when they play their first BCS opponent. No more we are undefeated by our own scheduling of JUCOs and first year teams! lol
September 2nd, 2011

Congradulations to Drew Little for stepping up and taking his punishment like a man!! He did not complain at all to the media (no Facebook or Twweets). I hope the pro athletes take notice.
Also, BO KNOWS FOOTBALL!!. He has been a quartereback his whole life. Good enough to obtain a scholorship from Coach Curry. Can't wait for tonight.
September 2nd, 2011

Also glad to see Little is not a whiny beeyotch that that dude from Texas Tech, and have a dad use his power and influence on ESPN to use propaganda to slander the head coach on national TV.

Spotify Continues to Lag Behind iTunes as Source of Record Label Revenue
According to Business Insider, Spotify, the on-demand free and subscription-based music streamer is reportedly the second largest source of revenue for the world's major record labels, lagging behind Apple's iTunes.
Although Spotify is taking the number two spot in the market, it continues to lag far behind Apple's market-dominating iTunes. Apple paid out an estimated $3.2 billion to music publishers in 2011, which is in line with the numbers given out during the company's quarterly conference calls. The Cupertino California company was even rumored to be in talks to buy Spotify at one point, but the speculation didn't come to fruition.
Spotify became a popular music service in Europe after being found in 2006, crossing the ocean to launch in the U.S. in July 2011. At the time of its U.S. launch, the company had a catalog of 15 million songs but the number grew to 18 million and continues to grow by 10,000 to 20,000 tracks per day. According to recent estimates from analytics firm AppData, 23 million people used Spotify last month. Furthermore, CEO Daniel Ek mentioned there are over 10 million users in the U.S. alone over 3 million of whom are paying subscribers.
Spotify Director, Napster co-founder, and former Facebook president, Sean Parker, alleged that Apple attempted to keep the service out of the U.S. as it directly competes with iTunes, at the D10 conference in May. At SXSW, Parker said the following: "If we [Spotify] continue growing at our current rate in terms of subscriptions and downloads, we'll overtake iTunes in terms of contributions to the recorded music business in under two years."
We'll have to wait and see if Parkers predictions come true but as of right now, although Spotify does seem to be doing well, it has a long way to go to even come close to the success of iTunes.

Wow..that is significant growth in such a short period of time. Apple is always looking to make iTunes better. Maybe at their current model Spotify is gaining ground but Apple may go in a different direction, in order to appeal to more users..you never know. Time will certainly tell.

If apple does try to go with a radio service or subscriptions they should have just bought spotify. Apple never intended on taking over the world music distribution, it just happened do to their hardware. As far as Pandora, well its a joke. If you have ever tried to get your own music on Pandora well you would know this. Spotify is growing at its rate for easy of use, Pandora just never understood that.

I love Spotify. I haven't use pandora since I discovered Spotify. I share my account with my wife. You can only use spotify at one device but I have tons of playlist saved for offline mode. As long as playlist are saved for offline mode you can play on different devices at the same time. Whenever she is not on I use the radio app or search for new songs to add to my playlist for offline use.

Praying the Names of God - April 14
Names of Jesus Week Seventeen, Day One
The Name
In the last book of the Bible, Jesus reveals himself as "the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." Present at the world's beginning, Jesus will also be present at its end, when he and his work are finally and fully revealed. When you pray to Christ as the Alpha and the Omega, you are praying to the One who is, who was, and who is to come. He is our all-sufficient Lord, who will not fail to complete the good work he has begun in us.
Key Scripture
"I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." Revelation 22:13
His Name Revealed
Listen to me, O Jacob,
Israel, whom I have called:
I am he;
I am the first and I am the last.
Isaiah 48:12
He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!"
Then he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true."
He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End." Revelation 21:5 - 6
"Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." Revelation 22:12 - 13
Lord, you are Alpha and Omega, Beginning and End, First and Last. You are the source of all life and the fulfillment of all desire. You made the world from nothing and then remade it through your love. Help me to be so rooted in you that I never lose heart. May every beginning and every ending in my life be something that glorifies you.
Understanding the Name
The title "Alpha and Omega" occurs only three times in the Bible, and all three are in the book of Revelation. Because Alpha and Omega are the first and last letters in the Greek alphabet, Revelation 22:13 could be paraphrased: "I am the A and the Z, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." These verses in Revelation probably allude to passages in Isaiah in which God identifies himself as being both the first and the last (Isaiah 44:6; 48:12).
Studying the Name
- Can you imagine a human being claiming to be the A to Z? Why or why not?
- How do you think this title relates to Christ's divinity?
- Try to relate this title, Alpha and Omega, to Jesus' role in both creation and in world history. What do you think it means?

Yevadu audio review:
Devi Sri prasad worked with Megapowerstar for very first time so lot expected from their combo.let's check did DSP reached his expectations.
Freedom: Album starts with freedom song.Musically this song is not at its best but it got very good lyrics.There is lot of score for dance which gives a great chance for Ramcharan to impress his fans.
Nee Jathaga : This is the best song among all in this album.This is Dsp mark melody song. Singing taking this song to next level.
Ayyo papam : It happens to be Tue item song .This song already made news when it got leaked in net long ago. The song is catchy and feast for masses but it is missing some charm.
Cheliya cheliya :
If you have to choose two sings from this album this will be one among them.Singing and arrangements everything went perfect. It will be a memorable song for long time.
Our yeah and Pimple dimple songs are not worth to mention here.
Finally couple of songs are fantastic ,two average songs and two below par songs.
Rating: 3/5

History & Culture
Walnut Canyon National Monument was established by President Woodrow Wilson on November 30, 1915, to preserve ancient cliff dwellings. Initially managed by the US Forest Service, the monument was transferred to the National Park Service in 1934. Today a variety of archeological and natural resources are preserved on approximately 3600 acres.
Understanding of earlier populations comes from multiple perspectives, including the traditional history of the people themselves and interpretations by archeologists of structures and artifacts that remain. You can explore both through the links on this page.
Did You Know?
In 1915 a spur road to what is now Walnut Canyon National Monument was designated part of the National Old Trails Highway, also known as the Ocean-to-Ocean Highway, which stretched for 3,095 miles across the US. Walnut Canyon became a short detour from this major transcontinental route.

10 Home Decor Private Sale Sites
Who doesn't love a good sale? I found a new excuse for procrastinating by spending my lunch hour shopping online. Private sale websites seem to be the latest trend in online shopping. I was already familiar with Gilt Groupe, but stumbled upon a few more sites while holiday shopping. Even Overstock.com joined the category of members only sites with their new website, Eziba. See a full list of private sale sites below the jump.
- Gilt Groupe: This is my favorite private sale website. They had a booth at last summer's Dwell on Design event and were attracting quite a crowd. They have a few items in their current sale that I am eyeing for Christmas presents.
- One Kings Lane: Their new sales events begin daily at 8am PST and last 72 hours. They offer designer decor, home essentials, entertaining products, and travel needs. Last month they were featured in InStyle Magazine as the Best of the Web.
- Decor Insider: Decor Insider opened April 1, 2010 and offers "to-the-trade" home furnishings at reduced prices.
- Rue La La: Rue La La is an invitation-only site that features private sale boutiques that are open for a set amount of time.
- Eziba: Eziba is Overstock.com's private sale site. Their sales start at 11am EDT and they currently offer free shipping up until December 25th.
- Achica: Achica is a luxury lifestyle store, which has savings of up to 70% on luxury home and lifestyle brands.
- ideeli: ideeli is a members only shopping community that features designer brands at up to 80% off in the areas of fashion, home, and beauty. The membership includes $25 shopping credits for each friend who buys.
- HauteLook: HauteLook has 48 hour sale events with discounts of 50-75% off the world's top fashion, accessories, beauty, kids, and home brands.
- 2M Collective: 2M Collective offers unique discounts and exclusive offerings on modern furniture, lighting, and accessories.

Does anyone know where the chair in the top right photo (with dog) is from?
Add DesignStory.com to the list. I've never bought anything from these sites but relatives have bought from Rue La La and the merchandise takes a while to arrive and is not eligible for returns.
Had issues with ideeli. Items were not shipped as promised and delayed an extra month without notification.
Decor Insider is the worst:
Extremely limited selection, and the same stuff week after week after week - I finally quit looking at them.
The Foundary really doesnt sell anything that isn't already on their public site Hayneedle.
Gilt and One Kings Lane are my go-to membership shopping sites - The great thing about Gilt is that they also have deals for travel and apparel - and starting tomorrow, members will be able to try for one of 3 2011 VW Jetta for $10,000 off MSRP!
Meanwhile, One Kings Lane has their Saturday "Tastemaker" sales where one can pick up interesting vintage objects and home furnishings - sometimes at great prices!
I like RueLaLa precisely because you CAN return the merchandise, less the cost of shipping. The only non-returnables are obvious items like underwear, swimwear and food and wine.
Worm whole! I should be working and now look at me shopping!
Definitely check out JossandMain.com. It's very new so not too many people know about it yet. They have some awesome home accessories and switch it up between modern, traditional and eclectic.
I have had luck with both HauteLook and Gilt - the shipping is slow but the products were both high quality and good deals.
The thing I don't like about membership sites is the fact that now that they have my email address, I'm receiving emails from them on a daily basis.
I'm surprised nobody mention www.beyondtherack.com. I have ordered a lot from here as well as from Hautelook, Rue La La and Ideeli.
One Kings Lane is awful. I had to force them last year to take back a whole boat load of stuff I bought within a 2 week period, household items of all kinds, serverware, linens, trays, ceramics, art work. Every bit of it was cheap crap from overseas that I could have found at Cost Plus for much much less. Just awful. But after a LOT of emailing one of the founders, complaining and continuously bugging them, they gave in and I returned all of it. Not worth even looking there.
If you like handcrafted homedecor accessories and I recommend www.craftscape.com, I ordered a pair of vase and they deliver more than what they promise along with free shipping and order delivered within 3 business days. Truly professional!!

Doshi Levien consists of the married couple Nipa Doshi (born 1971 in Mumbai, India) and Jonathan Levien (born 1972 in Elgin, Scotland). Doshi Levien's designs combine the hard-edged industrial with rounded, exquisite handmade qualities. They unite traditional Indian elements with their in-depth knowledge of European design history. The results are beautiful, original contributions to a design history that is already defining Doshi Levien's furnishings as classics.
The reading room, which Doshi Levien has been designed specifically for ARKEN, is built up around some of their most acclaimed furniture: The armchair Paper Planes, the day bed Charpoy, the prizewinning sofa My Beautiful Backside, the chair Impossible Wood and the day bed Principessa, which is inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's tale The Princess and the Pea.
Here ARKEN's guests can take a break and become absorbed in the presented literature, see the documentary about three of the artists participating in the exhibition INDIA : ART NOW or simply enjoy the beautiful furniture.
