Tomb Crew x Hz On Their Tz
We love Tomb Crew here at HDD HQ but we were not sure what to expect when Jamie Tomb Crew introduced Hz on They Tz as trap on his Deja Vu Fm show a few weeks ago. We are not the biggest fans of the current wave of Trap music but this one surprised us, it's a banger, and its available for free! It kinda sounds like if Baauer and Redlight had a musical baby.

An Invitation from Sammy
I would like to invite you to CLASS 101. You don't have to become a member to attend– it's just for your information. In CLASS 101, we will explain what we believe, how we operate, and the history of our church.
What is C.L.A.S.S.?
God wants you to take your next step spiritually. That could mean getting baptized, committing to take time to dig into the Bible on a daily basis, or maybe God wants you to see what His Word has to say about why you exist. Northminster's CLASS system is all about those next steps. The four classes build on each other (CLASS 101 is a prerequisite for 201, 201 for 301, etc.) helping you develop a purpose driven life one step at a time.
Class 101 is a basic introduction to Northminster and is designed to clearly explain who and what our church is. You'll learn about our history, our heritage, our beliefs, and our structure.
Class 201 focuses on the four basic habits every Christian needs to grow to spiritual maturity: Time in God's Word, Prayer, Tithing and Fellowship. You'll learn how to implement these habits into your everyday life.
Each of us was put on earth to make a contribution. We are not saved by service; we are saved for service. God has a ministry for every member in our Northminster family. That's what Class 301 is all about. It's designed to help you discover your SHAPE for ministry.
Class 401 is dedicated to helping our core members learn to openly share their faith, discover their life mission, and realize how they can serve both in the community and in the world. This class takes members through learning to share their faith, becoming a "World-Class" Christian, and discovering God's mission for their lives.
For more information contact .
Small Groups
We believe that Jesus calls his Body, the church, to unity of purpose and spirit and that as church members we need to protect the unity of the church (John 17:20-23). We believe that loving relationships should permeate every aspect of church life. We believe that small groups are one of the most important places where loving relationships result in life change, and as such, small groups are the heartbeat of our church. Every member needs to be in one. Not in a small group? Looking to start a new group or join an existing one? Check out the Group Finder or contact Mary Beth El-Shafie and we'll help hook you up with a group that meets your schedule.
For more information about small groups, contact Mary Beth El-Shafie

Jack Shepherd is sick of Washington politics, sick of corporate law, and even a little sick of himself. So he hits the road looking for a new start, makes a couple of wrong turns, and winds up in Hong Kong. Now he needs a job, and being General Chalerm Kitnarok's lawyer is a job, so he takes it.
He could do worse. Charlie Kitnarok is the world's 98th richest man and controls billions in assets. But he's also a former prime minister of Thailand living in exile in Dubai where he's plotting his return to power. For Shepherd, that could be a real problem. The new Thai prime minister is Kathleeya Srisophon,a woman with whom Shepherd was once involved. Then Shepherd discovers Charlie is smuggling arms to his supporters in Thailand. Is he going to assassinate Kate and use the Thai army to seize control of the country?
Thailand is hurtling closer and closer to a bloody civil war. And as unlikely as it sounds, Jack Shepherd may be the only person on earth who can stop it.

Super Sunday is my way of sharing current happenings in my life or to express random/crazy thoughts that go on in my head.
I have recently met a guy named Justin. He's friendly, handsome, straight-acting, and one of those "nice guys" that are hard to come by.
|Sunset at Ala Moana Beach Park
The first time we hanged out was on Wednesday. We walked around Ala Moana beach park as the sun was setting and got to know each other. Now that I look back on it, it was kind of romantic. I remember looking into the distance and thinking about how nice the sunset was. He walked me to the bus stop afterwards and we parted ways. He told me later that he had wanted to kiss me goodnight, but didn't because there had been people around.
Justin: Why was there so much people at that bus stop? I wanted to kiss you goodnight.
Me: It's okay. There's always next time :)
Then yesterday we had our "next time". We went for a long walk again and got to know each other a little more. We watched a movie, had dinner together, shared a kiss, and slow danced to a love song that I had downloaded on my phone.
Justin: Me too (smiles)
Me: That is the first time I have ever danced with another guy (smiles)
Me: That is the first time I have ever danced with another guy (smiles)
I'm looking forward to hanging out with him again soon.
He told me that he looks forward to hanging out again soon too.
Life is good. LOL.

When we have pet events where we don't have access to a washroom, hand sanitizer is a luxury. We handle a lot of pets, plus we fill out paperwork, etc. and want to keep everything sanitary. Great way to keep from spreading germs.
Pros: great to use when you can't wash up
Cons: have to carry it around

Tri-Cities see triumph, tragedy in 2013
The year 2013 in the Tri-Cities was marked by both triumph and tragedy. The region saw the opening of a new courthouse in Colonial Heights and one of the largest hotels in Virginia, at Fort Lee. But the region also grieved as a longtime Virginia State Police trooper was killed in the line of duty in Dinwiddie County.
Here are the top-10 stories of the year in the Tri-Cities.
Master Trooper J.A. Walker killed
DINWIDDIE - A stop to check on a motorist cost the life of Virginia State Police Master Trooper Junius A. Walker, a loyal public servant, in March.
Walker was shot and killed by a shotgun blast while checking on a stopped car March 7. Russell E. Brown, 28, of Chesterfield will face capital murder charges.
"He was built like a grizzly bear, but had the disposition of a teddy bear," Col. W. Steven Flaherty, Virginia State Police superintendent, said during Walker's funeral at Good Shepherd Baptist Church. An estimated 3,000 mourners paid their final respects, including troopers from across the country. Top among local and state honors, the section of Interstate 85 where he died now bears his name.
Also paying the ultimate sacrifice was Sgt. Aaron X. Wittman, 28, of Chesterfield, killed Jan. 10 in Afghanistan. Assigned to 3rd Battalion, 69th Armor Regiment, he was killed by small arms fire while on patrol in Nangarhar Province. Wittman was the first combat casualty of 2013 and was buried in Arlington National Cemetery.
Sequestration, government shutdown hit Tri-Cities
FORT LEE - Fighting in Washington led to a two-week shutdown of many federal government services, impacting thousands of workers in the Tri-Cities. Locally, life at Fort Lee was scrambled and the neighboring Petersburg National Battlefield was shuttered Oct. 1.
Shoppers flooded the Fort Lee Commissary, which was scheduled to close for the extent of the government shutdown, to stock up on low-priced groceries. Leaders did their best, such as the U.S. Army Installation Management Command's decision to keep numerous Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation facilities open.
Organizers of the Four Centuries in Old City Point Day were left scrambling by the locked gates at Appomattox Plantation, where they had planned to host multiple events. Also canceled were a field day at Presquile National Wildlife Refuge, performances by the Fort Lee Army Band, the Run for the Fallen and Fort Lee's Oktoberfest; the Department of the Army Best Warrior Competition was delayed by about six weeks.
Many Fort Lee civilians returned to work Oct. 8, and Congress took action to end the shutdown Oct. 16. The hit to Fort Lee came after earlier sequestration budget cuts led to furloughs for civilian workers, shrank the annual Fourth at the Fort and reduced gate access hours.
Rusty Mack killed; 3 defendants freed
COLONIAL HEIGHTS - Family members are still hoping for justice in the February beating death of Russell "Rusty" Mack, 21. One defendant remains slated for trial after one man was found not-guilty, and charges against two others were dropped.
Mack was hospitalized after the Feb. 11 beating, and succumbed to his injuries Feb. 28. Four faced charges: His estranged wife, Ashley Mack, 19; Francis Joseph Blaha III, 20; Jonathan Brice Guy, 20; and Margaret Blair Dacey, then 17.
Guy was acquitted by a jury Nov. 8 following a trial in Henrico County. That outcome prompted a protest at the city's new courthouse. Charges against two other defendants, Blaha and Ashley Mack, were nolle prossed, or set aside. Commonwealth's Attorney Bill Bray will try the case against Dacey in February, although he asked a judge to appoint a special prosecutor. That request was denied earlier this month.
Hopewell plant finds owner, may reopen in city
HOPEWELL - Good news: The long-shuttered ethanol plant has found a new owner. Bad news: They may dismantle it and ship it overseas. Good news, again: They may open in Hopewell in February and hire 70 locals.
2013 proved a whirlwind year for Hopewell's long-shuttered ethanol plant, built by Osage Bio Energy as the Appomattox Bio Energy plant but never opened. British investors Vireol picked up the $178 million plant for a mere $13 million in March, with the intent of breaking down valuable equipment and moving it to a new facility in Grimsby, England. Documents also unveiled Osage's losing gamble that fuel made from barley would earn special federal subsidies.
In September, Vireol leased a silo to Scoular Co. for grain storage and inspected the equipment. Earlier this month, they announced they may open the plant in February if grain prices, ethanol prices and other factors look positive.
"If they do open the plant and run it, it will be a positive thing for the city," said Mayor Michael Bujakowski.
Losses strike Dinwiddie
DINWIDDIE - Three deaths struck the county especially hard this year.
Carter B. Northington, known as "Can Man," was a familiar sight in the Cox Road area before he was found unconscious with injuries Sept. 2. He succumbed to his injuries at Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center in Richmond. The community rallied, holding a vigil and raising money for his final expenses. Michael Edward Elmore, 48, was charged with first-degree murder.
Devin Small, 22, and Angela Small, 41, were charged with first-degree murder when sheriff's deputies found a newborn baby dead in a toilet in their Sutherland home Sept. 28. The family was struck with further heartbreak when Angela Small died of a heart attack days before a November hearing. Devin Small was granted $20,000 bond during the hearing.
A triple-killing bridged Chesterfield and Dinwiddie in January. Herbert Bland Sr. died in a shootout with his son, Herbert Bland Jr., after alerting authorities that his son had stolen his gun. Charges against the younger man in the shooting deaths of ex-girlfriend Elizabeth Fassett, 42, and her mother Barbara Fassett, 65, were certified in December. Charges have not been filed in the Dinwiddie shooting, as Commonwealth's Attorney Lisa Caruso is monitoring the Chesterfield case.
BI Chemicals to close in Petersburg
PETERSBURG - A changing global marketplace for drugs means fewer jobs in the city. Boehringer Ingelheim Chemicals Inc. announced in August that the Petersburg plant would close at the end of 2014.
"This was a very difficult decision and one that we did not make until we had explored all of our options," Dr. Manfred Psiorz, president and CEO, said in a statement. The closure will affect 240 employees, a company spokesman said. A partial closure in 2012 impacted 59 workers.
BI Chemicals has paid about $3 million in annual taxes, a blow to the city's budget, and regional leaders are working to find a new owner for the property along Interstate 95.
Running of the Bulls, American style
DINWIDDIE - The Great Bull Run brought a taste of Spain to the county this August. More than 12,000 came to see thrill-seekers race a bevy of bulls racing down a dirt-covered drag strip.
"I've eaten a lot of steak in my life, so they might be mad," said Walt Joyner, who drove from North Carolina for the event. Groups of 500 runners took their chances running - or jumping onto rodeo fencing - as eight rodeo bulls barreled by in each wave. Virginia Motorsports Park traded horsepower for bull-power for the day.
Those afraid of the beef were able to take part in the Tomato Royale food fight, flinging ripe fruit around. Although animal rights groups protested the event, organizers deemed it a success and have six more Great Bull Runs lined up across America in 2014.
I-95 tolls defeated; U.S. 460 toll road up in air
RICHMOND - Two of Gov. Bob McDonnell's signature transportation measures seemed centered in the Tri-Cities. A bid to toll motorists on Interstate 95 in Sussex County failed in the legislature, while a tolled U.S. Route 460 bypass is seeing dubious support under new Gov. Terry McAuliffe.
Southside Virginia rallied against the toll proposal, which was blocked when the General Assembly declared they had final approval for any tolls.
"From the beginning, residents of Southside Virginia knew the devastating impact that tolls on I-95 would have on public safety and our business environment," said Del. Roslyn Tyler, D-Jarratt. The measure would have charged cars $4 and trucks $12.
The Virginia Department of Transportation has not received U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permits for disturbing wetlands for the Route 460 toll road, although early work is continuing. During an event this month, governor-elect McAuliffe said in December that he would "take a hard look" at the $1.4 billion project championed by McDonnell.
Colonial Heights Courthouse opens; Petersburg library nears goal
COLONIAL HEIGHTS - A veritable palace of justice, the city's largest and costliest project ever presents a bold statement on the south end of the Boulevard. A grand opening was held Oct. 18, with court in session the following week. Twice as large as the old courthouse on Temple Avenue, it also clears the way for a new Kroger store and fuel center near Interstate 95. City leaders hope it will spur redevelopment on the Boulevard.
Not all are pleased with the final $22 million project, which came to fruition after years of fighting between the city and judges of the 12th Circuit over conditions in the old building.
"In my opinion, the courthouse is lavish beyond reason for a public structure of this nature in a jurisdiction the size of Colonial Heights," Jim Andrews wrote in a letter to the editor.
In another major project, the Petersburg Library Foundation is closing in on the fundraising goal and expects to open the new library in February. The Rodof Sholom Branch Library in Walnut Hill closed Aug. 31 in anticipation of the larger, modern library's opening.
Massive Fort Lee lodge opens
FORT LEE - Packing 1,000 rooms, a new Fort Lee Lodging Facility opened in February.
"This exceptional facility is critical infrastructure that accommodates the rising population here at Fort Lee," said Maj. Gen. Larry D. Wyche during the grand opening. The project engendered rare controversy due to the number of hotels in the area relying on military stays. Construction began in October 2010, with a final price tag of $86 million, plus $6.5 million in furnishings. Seven stories tall, the lodge includes more than a half-million square feet of space and almost 2 miles of hallways.
And more
Other major stories in the area included : the closure of the Petersburg Regional Art Center for renovation and the addition of apartments; Virginia State University's groundbreaking on the Multi Purpose Center; ongoing roadwork to widen the Boulevard in Colonial Heights; ongoing construction of a second Rolls-Royce plant in Prince George; VSU's ban from post-season football following an incident at the CIAA tournament banquet; Dinwiddie looking into replacing the government complex; a $17 million expansion at Service Center Metals; the drowning of two VSU students in the Appomattox River during an April hazing incident; the Dinwiddie Generals' perfect 15-0 season and state championship; and the proposed sale of Petersburg's City Hall and an adjacent hotel for a hotel-conference center.

Keeping Focused on Christ During the Holidays
- Wednesday, December 08, 2010
Another year my mom wrote Scripture verses on gold paper stars, which she then hid throughout the house. We "followed the star" by finding the various hidden stars. Each star had a Scripture verse on it that gave a clue as to the location of the next one. Along the way, we also found "gold," "frankincense," and "myrrh" and discussed the significance of each.
The sky is the limit for the different things you can do to celebrate Christmas together and to take advantage of the opportunity to share Jesus, especially with unsaved family and friends. Of course, how you celebrate will depend on your children's ages and your family's preferences. Your celebration might simply be a time of prayer, Scripture reading, and singing together. Or you may want to set aside some quiet time alone with God on Christmas. Only the Lord knows exactly what will work for you.
Along with how to celebrate, another aspect to investigate is who to celebrate with. Not everyone has family nearby—and sometimes hardships prevent families from really having time to put a Christmas celebration together. There have been years when we have been tremendously blessed by having another family join us for Christmas.
As the holiday season approaches, take some time to ask the Lord how He'd have you keep focused on Him this year. Don't be afraid to branch out of the box—the different things you can do are as unique as each family! It never ceases to amaze me how the Lord can give ideas when we ask Him. No matter how we celebrate or whether we celebrate at all, let's remember to not lose sight of seeing and worshiping Christ each and every day of the year.

(WMC-TV) - The Shelby County Sheriff's deputies responded to a barricade situation Friday in the 7100 block of Amberly Way Drive in Cordova, which is off of Raleigh-LaGrange Road.
Officials say that a suspect kept called 911 incoherently early Friday afternoon. When deputies arrived, a man opened the door with a gun. The SWAT Team was called in as well as negotiators.
The area has since been cleared after the drive was shut down for several hours.
Clyde Mosby, 63, barricaded himself inside the home.
"He had a breakdown, called the sheriff's department, and several other emergency personnel, ranting, and raving," said assistant chief deputy Mark Dunbar.
Mosby was detained for emergency commitment. No one else was inside the home.

TEAMS: Washington Nationals, Pittsburgh Pirates
Tyler Moore hit a three-run homer and Danny Espinosa homered and drove in three runs, leading the Washington Nationals over the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-2 Sunday. Moore homered in the eighth inning off rookie reliever Bryan Morris and broke open a 3-2 game. Moore homered for the first time this year after hitting 10 in 75 games last season as a rookie. Nationals star Bryce Harper was ejected in the first inning for disputing a checked-swing third strike. He tried to hold up on a 2-2 pitch, but third base umpire John Hirschbeck ruled Harper swung. Harper stood outside the batter's box, stared at Hirschbeck for a few moments and dropped his bat. Hirschbeck tossed last season's NL Rookie of the Year. Starling Marte hit a leadoff homer in the first, his fourth home run in five games for Pittsburgh.

"So many people that are called by God and equipped for ministry just don't have the means to attend seminary. I want God's people to be able to use their gifts and talents without undue concern about money. That's why I participate in the scholarship initiative here at Evangelical Seminary."
- Dorothy Gish, Scholarship Donor
"Upon graduation, I am free to minister wherever God calls me without worrying how I will meet the financial obligations of paying off seminary debt. I just want to minister and serve wherever God leads me to be."
- Amanda Rohrer, Scholarship Recipient
"My husband and I realized that many pastors do not earn a lot and come out of seminary with debt. We love Evangelical Seminary, so we set up a scholarship that now benefits multiple students each year. My husband has since passed away, but our scholarship is a continuing legacy for Christ."
- Harriet Maurer, Scholarship Donor
"I am blessed to be a recipient of an endowment scholarship that allows me to be a fulltime student. What a relief to know that, after my time at Evangelical Seminary, I will be able to step into whatever role God has for me-debt-free! Unfortunately, many of my peers are feeling burdened by the significant cost of their education. I wish everyone could have the experience I am having."

Area codes 919 and 984
Area codes 919 and 984 are telephone area codes serving all or parts of 11 counties in the east-central area of the U.S. state of North Carolina. They serve the primary cities of Raleigh, Durham, Cary and Chapel Hill/Carrboro, and the surrounding suburban areas of the Research Triangle metropolitan area, as well as the outlying towns and nearby rural areas of Oxford to the north, Sanford to the south, and Goldsboro to the southeast.
Area code 919, the main area code, was split off from area code 704, the state's original area code, in 1954. It originally covered the entire eastern part of the state from Winston-Salem to Wilmington. 704 was reduced to cover Charlotte and all points west.
Despite North Carolina's explosive growth in the second half of the 20th century, this configuration remained in place for 39 years. In 1993, the western and southern portions of the area code were split off to form area code 910. In 1998, the northeastern portion was split off to form area code 252.
Area code 984 was initially slated for overlay with area code 919 in 2001, but was deferred ten years when the supply of numbers was deemed sufficient for the near term.[1] Within a decade, however, the proliferation of cell phones and pagers meant that the implementation of 984 could no longer be delayed. In September 2011, the North Carolina Utilities Commission announced that the 984 area code was being pressed into service. Ten-digit dialing for local calls became optional on October 1, 2011, and became mandatory across the Triangle on March 31, 2012, a move which has resulted in thousands of wrong number calls to 9-1-1 instead of 919.[2] New telephone numbers in the affected region may be assigned the new 984 area code as early as April, 2012.[3][4]
Counties served[edit]
- Alamance (small portion in northeast, most of county is in 336)
- Chatham (except small portion in northwest which is in 336)
- Duplin (north-central portion, most of county is in 910)
- Durham
- Franklin (except portion in northwest, which is in 252)
- Granville
- Harnett (most of west and north is 919/984, rest of county is 910)
- Johnston
- Orange (except sliver in northwest, which is in 336)
- Wake
- Wayne (except sliver in southeast which is in 252)
- Lee
Major cities and towns[edit]
- Raleigh
- Cary
- Apex
- Fuquay-Varina
- Garner
- Durham
- Chapel Hill
- Carrboro
- Goldsboro
- Smithfield
- Dunn
- Sanford
Cultural References[edit]
North Carolina native Petey Pablo paid respect to area code 919 on his debut album Diary Of A Sinner: 1st Entry.
In the musical Rent, one of Alexi Darling's contact numbers left on Mark and Roger's answering machine has a 919 area code, even though she is an agent in New York City.

Suzi's Blog
Molasses Banana Cobbler
There was no way I was not going to make this. First, the header notes says it is a "decadent dessert for cold winter days." Second, it has the word "molasses" in the title. "You are a sucker for titles," Suzen says to me. "You are just lucky I happen to like a pretty face," I reply. It's true. She has a pretty, no a gorgeous, face. And, yeah, I can get sucked in by recipe titles. I was not born in Dixie, but I am up for anything that is molasses. And I love bananas and this says "cobbler" too. Far too much to ignore. It turns out, this dessert is decadent and comforting, all at the same time. It was 10° outside. Suzen actually made this cobbler [my pastry skills were deemed lacking]. We ate it in front of the fireplace while the snow kept coming down. A snowy night and bananas? It's a combination that once was rare and now can be yours anytime you want. This cobbler can be crafted in just a few moments and enjoyed until the last flakes have fallen. This recipe is from Cinnamon Spice and Warm Apple Pie, a clever little book with many more pleasures awaiting you.
Molasses Banana Cobbler
Yield: serves 4-6
Banana Layer:
- 4 medium bananas
- 2/3 cup heavy cream or canned
- evaporated milk
- 2 tablespoons dark soft brown sugar
Molasses Scone Topping:
- 1 3/4 cups self-rising flour
- a pinch of salt
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons dark molasses
- 2/3 cup milk, plus extra for glazing2 teaspoons dried red pepper flakes [without seeds] or 1 teaspoon chili powder
- Ice cream or whipped cream for topping [optional]
Peel the bananas and slice thickly. Arrange in a baking dish. Mix the cream with the brown sugar and pour this mixture over the bananas. Sift the flour and salt into a bowl and rub in the butter. Stir in the sugar and cinnamon. Combine the molasses and milk, whisking with a fork until the molasses has dissolved. Quickly pour the treacle mixture into the flour mixture and mix to form a soft dough. Tip the dough out onto a floured work surface and knead briefly until smooth. Use the flat of your hand to pat out to a thickness of % inch. Stamp out as many rounds as you can with a cookie cutter, re-rolling the trimmings as necessary. Use these to cover the bananas. Brush with a little milk and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until the scones are well-risen and golden brown on top. Cover with a piece of foil if the scones are cooking too quickly and the banana is still raw. Serve warm with cream or vanilla ice cream.

Brian's Back Spasm Banana Backup
I don't know why, but my back is killing me. Not a muscle pull but spasms that dash up and down when I twist, reach, or just move.
I was trying to make a Banana Daiquiri, but the rum was one shelf too high and I could not easily get to that bottle. I could not get to that bottle, period. However, the pisco was right in front of me. And so, this lovely drink was born.
I did make multiple adjustments to the classic daiquiri recipe. There is pisco instead of rum. And simple syrup instead of raw sugar, and in a larger quantity. Mandarin Napoleon replaced the traditional Triple Sec.
The result of all these modifications? Something banana, of course, and something whose flavor I really, really like with its different component flavors. The Mandarin Napoleon liqueur offers a strong orange tone that can bounce against the lime and yet easily merges with the banana. And yet, there is no dominant flavor with these proportions and I find this "flavor mystery" to be a true adventure.
I wanted my banana drink. A real one. Not one using banana liqueur, but one incorporating a real banana. Why? Well, a banana that has spent a few moments in a Vitamix produces a beverage with a lovely texture. This is not a milkshake, no milk for one reason, but it has that smoothness that oozes satisfaction. Every sip has substance. It's not a simple liquid. It's a bit of a meal.
Oh, a couple of these and you smile and the spasms go away. Or, at the least, you don't notice.
Brian's Back Spasm Banana Backup
Yield: 2 seriously large cocktails
- 1 ounce Mandarin Napoleon orange liqueur
- 2 ounces pisco
- 1 ounce simple syrup
- Juice of one lime
- 1 medium size banana, peeled and cut into a few chunks
- 6-8 ice cubes
Put everything in a blender [better a Vitamix] and process until very smooth. Don't add too much ice or you'll have issues with "pourability."
Pour into a tall cocktail glass.
Garnish, if you wish, with some slices of banana.

Veterinary Technology lost one of its shining stars with the death of Patricia MacKenzie, LVT
Pat, a 1976 graduate of the veterinary technology program at Blue Ridge Community College practiced in the Tidewater region in small animal practice for 35 years. She was a dedicated professional who was always willing to share her vast knowledge and experience with students and peers alike. She was an avid cat lover and enjoyed helping people provide the best care they could for their animals.
Pat continually gave back to her profession, serving the Virginia Association of Licensed Veterinary Technicians for most of her career. She served as treasurer and President of the Association in the 1980's and was recognized as the VALVT Technician of the Year in 1989.

Sarasota deputies caught a man at Target doing more than just shopping.
Surveillance video shows a man they identified as Aaron Stahl enter the store. He goes to the home goods section and pretends to look around, then he reaches under a woman's skirt, apparently taking pictures.
The woman notices and confronts him. They tussle for a moment, then Stahl runs out of the store.

Last month during E3, we got our first look at the amazing looking Destiny game from Bungie, the people who brought us the original Halo games on the Xbox 360.
And now the gameplay footage that they first revealed at that show is available for the general public at last. The landscape, structures, and characters all look gorgeous. Once inside the wall, the lighting, even in the darkest places, is beautifully rendered. My only complaint is that the demo players that we can hear talking about the game just sound a little stiff and scripted. Of course, it's not a knock on Destiny, because those voices are not a part of the game itself, but I just don't think I've ever heard such an amicable and relaxed multiplayer conversation in my life. Sure, it wouldn't exactly make sense to throw in the usual profanity and trash talk you'd get from a pair of surly, Mountain Dewed-up and jerkied hardcore gamers on their 19th straight hour of gameplay, but it would have felt more real. Darla and Joe are just so… nice.
Regardless, the 12 minute video below is worth checking out just to get a feel for the next big gaming obsession that will overtake your life next year.
Watch for Destiny to likely appear on consoles in 2014.

Stabbington brothers by disney-villains featuring skechers shoes
"We want her instead"
Ooh Mister Eugene by Bonka-chan
Quite possibly the best Tangled fanart ever to be drawn. 8'D
… what?! -laughs out loud-
This remind me so much of Jane Austen/ Bronte sisters comics?
Young Stabbington Brothers
Artist Notes:
When Rapunzel and Flynn return to the shore after seeing the lanterns, Flynn leaves to go give the crown back to the Stabbington Brothers so he can spend the rest of his life with Rapunzel. Unfortunately, Mother Gothel and the Stabbington Brothers had a different plan. They tie Flynn to a boat with the crown and set him out on the river. The Brothers then approach Rapunzel and inform her that Flynn left with the crown and was only using her. Rapunzel sees Flynn sailing off with the crown and becomes incredibly heartbroken.
While in her fragile emotional state, the Stabbington Brothers capture her and take her to Mother Gothel. Mother Gothel had convinced the twins to accompany them and in return promised them riches greater than that of Rapunzel's hair or a crown. Upon returning to the tower, Mother Gothel attempts to console Rapunzel. She asks Rapunzel to sing her hair incantation under the guise of making her feel better. As she sings, Mother Gothel informs her that what she did was for the best. And that Flynn the thief deserved his fate. This caused Rapunzel to realize that it was her mother who was behind Flynn's "sudden change of heart". Rapunzel became filled with rage and anger and suddenly, Mother Gothel began to scream. Rapunzel's hair began to suck the life from Mother Gothel's body. "You did it!" Rapunzel screamed. Mother Gothel pleaded with Rapunzel but she was too consumed by hatred for her "mother" who was responsible for disposing of her true love. Mother Gothel's body aged quickly and then turned to dust in the curls of Rapunzel's hair.
The twins witnessed this and retrieved their weapons to kill Rapunzel, but it was too late. Her hair wrapped around one of them and drained the life from him. The other twin escaped the tower and ran for his life. Rapunzel pursued him in hopes of getting revenge. The remaining twin upon escaping, began to inform other thugs and ruffians of the girl with the long golden hair that can give and take life as a means of putting bodies between him and Rapunzel. However, Rapunzel could not be deterred from her revenge and the last Stabbington suffered the same fate as his brother. Anybody that got in her way suffered as she had suffered. She retained the scars of her conflicts as a reminder of her pain and as a warning to others. All who sought her hair would pay.
Unbeknownst to Rapunzel, Flynn escaped his fate and returned to the tower only to find the remains of one of the Twins and Mother Gothel's cloak. Flynn searched the kingdom for her unaware that she has been consumed by her rage and heartbreak. Will Flynn be able to find Rapunzel and save her from being consumed by the dark…or worse…dun dun dun.
His facial expression called for it.
too much free time…

OCZ Technology Announces New PC2-8000 4GB Platinum Edition Memory to offer Mainstream Enthusiasts an Affordable Overclocking Kit
Sunnyvale, CA—January 17, 2008—OCZ Technology Group, Inc., a worldwide leader in innovative ultra-high performance and high reliability memory, today announced the PC2-8000 Platinum Edition 4GB dual channel kit, designed to boost the performance of mainstream gaming systems. These new 2GB modules are the ultimate upgrade for entry-level enthusiasts seeking an exceptional overclocking kit at a price point that suits all budgets.
As part of OCZ's Platinum series, the PC2-8000 2GB modules are engineered to satisfy the demands of overclockers and enthusiasts, and designed to deliver the performance and speed gamers require for today's graphic-intensive DirectX 10 PC games. At a blistering 1000MHz, the 4GB Platinum Edition runs at faster speeds than typical 2GB modules, offering incredible bandwidth and stability on the latest platforms.
"System memory density is a significant cost factor in the overall configuration of any personal computer," commented Dr. Michael Schuette, VP of Technology Development at OCZ Technology. "However, retrofitting a system with an abundance of memory does not necessarily translate into having to spend an abundance of cash. By releasing quality products like the PC2-8000 2GB modules at a low price point, OCZ Technology once again demonstrates the commitment to providing the customers with the best possible solution in the market place."
OCZ always aims to please. There customer service is also top notch.
Honestly, the prices of tese 2x2gb kits has become insane! Memory is so cheap right now, but it will rise with the adoption of DDR3 and Nehalem...DDR2 will get less demand while DDR3 prices will drop due to demand. Right now is a great time for cost effective memory ^_^.
I am considering replacing my Ballistix 4x1Gb 6400c4 for the OCZ 8000
Are you running 1:1 atm? Cause those Crucial Modules can go higher than ddr2-800 spec. Most people get them to around ddr2-1000. No point in dishing out more cash really...You have 4 gigs, you should save your money for something more useful =D. Like a new graphics card =P.
I 2nd that.
My logic is undeniable..
QUICK! Which movie is this quote from!..Free cookie for who gets it right =P.
The point you made about GFX over ram was a given you ham! :P
=P...rofl..I know. I just wanted to use that phrase for a movie quote...Which no one has answered! NO COOKIE FOR YOU!
I am not a gamer so my card does serve my purpose. Although when the new cards come out and the prices drop and I will most likely get a new card. And yes I run them at 1:1.

ARROW is getting ready to build a bunch of PicoKeyers and then get on 2m FM and work MCW. The PicoKeyers have an MCW mode that makes this very simple to accomplish. This promises to be a lot of fun.
At our monthly breakfast this morning, Jon, KG6URI, noted that if you have a Yaesu FT-857/897, you don't need a PicoKeyer. It has a built-in MCW mode. I asked him to send me the particulars, and here's his e-mail:
The Yaesu FT-857/897 is capable of MCW operation, although it is well hidden. The only mention I could find is on page 100 of my FT-857D manual where it says "FM Mode: F2″.
It's easy to set up. Enter menu set mode by holding down FUNC. Just scroll to "22 CW AUTO MODE" and set to on. Now, the CW key is operational under both SSB and FM as well. Using the VFO or memory, select an FM channel or repeater, and use the key to send just like you were in CW mode.
Other interesting features in the menu are "31 CW TRAINING" which plays random characters through the sidetone and "26 CW PADDLE" which lets you use the up/down keys on the mic instead of a paddle.
Now, all I gotta do is get him on the air so that he can get some CW practice in. Right, Jon?? :)

Very good. Used 1/2 cup chocolate chips and pecans and it was enough. Also, used 1/3 cup more banana. Whipped butter and sugar until light. Mixed flour with other dry ingredients before adding to mix. Bread was very moist with a nice texture.
I've made other banana bread recipes before and none compare to this one. I did make a few changes. I only added 1/2 cup of sugar. I put half the dough in the pan I mixed a little brown sugar with cinnamon,mini chocolate chips and walnuts and put it on top of half of the dough than added the rest of the dough on top. Again I added the same on top of the dough and baked it. It was so good. It gave the top a crunching topping. It was incredible. So moist. The family inhaled it. I will make this recipe again the same way. Delicious.
i enjoy just how this recipe looks i eaten it before with my children all of us enjoyed this we could have a household gathering again and cook this recipe again soon that is one tasty recipe you have to test it i guarantee you all you could will require to this its very tasty
As written, this is really great banana bread, the best I have made. But these days I have tweaked it to be healthier- I use 2 big bananas or 3 medium (more than a cup), I reduce the sugar to 3/4 cup, and I use half white whole wheat. The result isn't as cakey or tender- it is more hearty- but still quite nice. I will still make this recipe as written when I want for a more dessert-like bread.
I agree with theperson who wrote it is very dry and to many chocolate chips so i tried make double back but only adding the amount they call for one batch and added some milk to the mix and it turned out the best banana bread i ever had

As someone who bakes all the time I found this recipe just okay... I agree with other reviewers-- too many chocolate chips, they pretty much all sank to the bottom. Next time I'll use mini's or omit altogether. I'd actually never even made banana bread before and chose this recipe because of the chocolate chips, just to get my kids to try it. Also, baking for an hour?! At 55 minutes it still ended way too brown and did not look very appetizing. Lastly I like banana bread that's more moist (maybe mine was not because I only used 2 bananas). Overall not bad (I made it yesterday and it's already gone this morning!), I think I will try again anyway with changes mentioned.
After reading reviews, I decided to use less chocolate chips, more banana is needed in my opinion and the cook time is too long. I cooked mine about 1 hr and I think the outside was a bit too brown and it would have been moister inside if I cooked it 45 or 50 min instead.It is good once you consider the suggestions of the other reviews and I also added cinnamon. Making this again, just a bit more banana, cinnamon and try cooking 45 -50 min as the others stated.
Great recipe! I have made this a dozen or more times and always love it. I usually make muffins and the recipe usually yields 12-14 depending on the size you want. I also use brown sugar or cane sugar which works out well. Recommend this recipe if you want an easy no fault banana bread!

nice staff
wifi isnt stable
The rooms were clean and nicely remodeled the beds were so comfortable. Great location from the Staples Center.
Absolutely no parking I the rear 4 spots with one way in& out very tight. Not to far from a homeless park. Do not walk around this neighborhood at night
Staff was wery helpful & friendly, & it was really nice to chat with them. There was alloved to drink our own wines at the hotel terrace, we spend nice evening there =)
Neighborhood was kind of scary at nights... Sofa-bed was terrible to sleep on, besides bed was indeed wery comfortable!
It's very clean and nice room good value for money
We loved how close it was to our venue. The room was really nice!
There was no parking provided by the hotel unless you left your keys with the single worker who was there. I'm sorry not giving full access to my car while I sleep?
Room with refrigirator and micro wave oven.
Car parking - very few places to park
Close to bus, a few blocks from the train, food across the street. Quite neighbor. Single lady safe on streets late at night. Close to Staple Center, LA live. Great location. Hotel very clean, king bed comfortable. Great price.
Staff were very helpful.
Not such a good area.
the gentlemen that was there at check in was super nice. My room was so clean and updated and comfortable. I would totally recommend this hotel for anyone needing a room in LA.
What I am guessing is the mother. She was super rude and completely unaccomodating. they should keep her as far away from the guests as possible.
They charge you a 100$ deposit on top of your booking.
The price, room decoration and room cleanliness.
The elevator is slow
Neat rooms.
Limited paking space on first come first serve basis. Not great for big cars such as minivans or SUVs. Can easily get blocked and have a hard time to get out. Narrow drive way
The person or owners where nice persons and they treated us good
No parking lot for the guests
I liked that everything was farely close. My family and I went to Santa Monica pier, Universal studios and walked to staples center. The staff was great and the room was amazing for the price !
The hotel is across from a well known hotel brand. When you first pull up your initial reaction is to jump ship and book across the street. But I was very impressed once I made it to the room. Beautiful room, must say I was pleasantly surprised. I would stay here again if I'm in the downtown LA area.
I didn't like the staff and their appearance. Looked like a typical cheap hotel staff where the man is wearing a wife beater and boxer shorts to check you in. The staff seem reluctant to help you with information. So best bet, is to sleep at this location, but if you want better customer service go across the street.
The rooms were nice and very up to date
The lack of parking was an issue
Staff was very nice. The room was nice.
No onsite parking
- the location was good - the room was big an had microvawe and coffea machine. Plus there were enough closets
- no breakfast - parking is limited, difficult for a big car. But, each time, the receptionist lady puts effort and provides you a parking space.
The stuff was warm but they were not good at English. So it was hard to communicate
The location of the Inn is not so safe. You should be aware before going to that direction. Wi-fi was horrible.
The TV has only one language. The management does not know how to speak to customers.
Clean rooms
Sketchy area. Rude staff. Light in hall came through the door. 5 parking spots for 30 rooms. Loud area.
Great location! Free coffee!!! VERY CLEAN and quite
cant think of anything
The staff were fantastic. Rooms were great, modern and clean. Great value for money.
The walls were very thin. Could hear everything.
Clean rooms, comfortable beds, quiet

I am primarily a sculptor, but drawing has always been an important part of my practice. Whether I work in three or two dimensions, my approach is similar, and involves a mixture of construction and deconstruction, putting together and taking away. In drawing this translates into a process of repeatedly building up a surface and then carving into it with a rubber.
My sculpture is essentially figurative, although there is an underlying conceptual dimension to my work. The focus of my work is always people. I have been working over the last few years on a series of birds illustrative of some the more absurd aspects of human beings as well as on some more serious pieces using the figure to express extremes of human experience.
Whether it is light-hearted like the series of birds or more serious like The Final Cut and the Fish Lamb series, structure is always central to my work. My aim is to convey meaning through the way each piece is constructed. This is particularly important in the Fish Lamb series. This is an ongoing series exploring ideas of identity and disintegration through a portrait head. The first in the series, Fish Lamb whole and human, is a whole head, constructed cohesively from the inside out. Based on a cast from this but undermined and worked on, the second, Fish Lamb not quite right, lacks the essential structural unity of a whole and is designed to convey disintegration.
Given my interest in structure rather than surface appearance as a fundamental means of conveying meaning, the materials I use to build up my pieces are very important. As a female sculptor working in the twenty-first century I feel a strong need to create a language which reflects the world I live in using materials which do not come with the baggage of predominantly male sculptural tradition. I deliberately use materials which are of my time and environment and low-tech methods to assemble them. My aim is to take up the discarded material fabric of our world and transform it into a sculptural medium.
The raw materials I use are of little value and are not specifically designed to last, but rather to serve a given purpose and then be thrown away. I take these and transform them, breaking each element down into its component parts and re-assembling it to create a material and language of my own. I piece my materials together, layer them, glue them, cut into them using simple and direct methods which draw on female textile traditions of weaving and tying. Many of my recent pieces have incorporated discarded, broken umbrellas as a key element as well as other found materials, and the portrait heads use recycled plastic milk bottles.

"Excellent Read"
Well worth your time. The case studies in the middle of the book drag on a bit but are still interesting. Overall great production and great content.
"More to the story"
Classic, there is always more to a story. Nothing is quite as simple as everyone typically jump too, or the media jumps on. Malcolm gives a variety of examples and studies of this this. Yes sometimes it may feel a bit long till he finally gets back to his original point but it's because he delves into the detail.
"I don't know I I can get pass the second chapter"
withchapter with gravely voice author reads an account of social events. The problem is that most of events he mentions are so depressing. Precisely why I don't read news papers. Why couldn't author keep to hush puppies type of examples??? Deeply depressing book.
After reading "GETTNG MORE" and "HOW YOUR BRAIN WORKS" this book is a long dreary boring depressing read. Regret buying it. won't be able to finish it. All he is focusing on is examples of sex diseases, violence as wars. Yaaack.
"Simply Outstanding..."
This book is very insightful, jam packed with "ah hah" moments with credible and strong evidence behind them. The author/narrator does a picture perfect job of diction, pacing, emphasis and does not over-act or under-act. His voice is very easy to listen to and causes one to focus on the information given, not just his voice. This is one of the best audio books I have purchased in a long time. I am now looking at more of the author's work. This is a first class quality work. Bravo to the author and everyone involved in this masterful work! Great job!
"A bit diffuse but likeable"
I'll try to be quick. The book is worth a listen, but only if you can get it cheaply. The author goes all over the place rather than keeping on topic. His examples start strong but then become increasingly weak and tangential at best. I've heard all of the stories presented here in various other works, all of which presented them much better. The one thing that connected the stories was the concept of the "tipping point", however, the author gets confused in telling us the definition of a tipping point versus its causes versus how to create one. In the end the book just didn't seem cohesive. Sad really, as I think it could be written well by another author perhaps.
"interesting, follows description well"
I enjoy this type of book, being narrative and yet scientific/research based at the same time. It is informative, all about what makes anything epidemic, from fashion to crime. I like the examples he gives throughout the book. And I really like that the author is the narrator. I had read another of his books, Blink, and liked it also.
"Immune to the zeal this virus seeks to spread."
The author states human behavior is controlled by epidemiological principles, but proof beyond a disjointed string of anecdotes is.. where? Disappointing.
"Intriguing epidemics & the reasoning behind them"
The Tipping Point has several strong examples of epidemics that Gladwell refers back to throughout his book, as he builds and elaborates on what make idea's 'tip' - this make the topics stick. The ideas presented challenge reasoning put forward by the media with factual and numerical data either for or against their reasoning. As ideas are presented we are offered not only the result (the "what") but ways to make our ideas follow suite and become trends or epidemics. This makes "The Tipping Point" not only a fascinating read & party talking point, but also a useful collection of information and supporting reasoning that may be used to better position whatever it is we're trying to pitch.
"James Martel"
A very interesting book. This book was given to me by a neurology colleague and once I began to read it, I could not put it down. The origins of how trends start or for that matter why certain thoughts pick up cognitive moment was curious. Great for any long drive.
An avid reader living in NY.
"Very powerful ideas."
Malcom Gladwell has a very unique perspective on what motivates us, and this book is a wonderful example of his forward thinking ideas on what makes us tick on a personal level and community level. I enjoyed this book more than "The Power of Blink," which was an excellent book.

Over the past two decades, Nick Horrigan has built a quiet, safe life for himself, living as much under the radar as possible. But all of that shatters when, in the middle of the night, a SWAT team bursts into his apartment and drags him out to a waiting helicopter. A terrorist has seized control of a nuclear reactor, threatening to blow it up. And the only person he'll talk to is Nick, promising to tell Nick the truth behind the events that shattered his life twenty years ago.
At seventeen years old, Nick made a deadly mistake—one that cost his stepfather his life, endangered his mother, and sent him into hiding for years. Now what Nick discovers in that nuclear plant leaves him with only two choices: to start running again—or to fight and finally uncover the secrets that have held him hostage all these years.
As Nick peels back layer after layer of lies and deception, buffeted between the buried horrors of the past and the deadly intrigues of the present, he finds his own life—and the lives of nearly everyone he loves—at risk. And the only thing guiding him through this deadly labyrinth are his stepfather's dying words: TRUST NO ONE.
"A performance worthy of applause...Hurwitz's carefully interwoven plot lines and taut writing, as well as his pulsing descriptions of Los Angeles, make for a deeply satisfying read..." --Kirkus (Starred Review) on The Crime Writer
