Strong socks! By shovelrider on 9/29/2014shovelrider would recommend this product to a friendI use these draw string socks to filter out the junk before it can settle in my sump. Does a great job at catching debris and letting water through. I have washed them numerous times (bleach/water solution) and they look new every time I take them out of the washing machine.
High Quality Filter Socks By tarheel on 8/8/2014tarheel would recommend this product to a friendOverall a great filter sock even though they can be somewhat hard to clean. Drawstring works great and in my experience hold up to many washings.
Works Great! By Derek on 7/16/2014Derek would recommend this product to a friendBought multiples of the 4x8 and all i can say is they work great!!
Well built, works great By Shaun on 7/9/2014Shaun would recommend this product to a frienddrawstring is great for attaching directly to plumbing. after numerous washes and uses, the felt socks are still completely intact with no signs of wearing out. very well built and clears water in no time. Also cleans easily in washing machine.
work great By Adam on 6/23/2014Adam would recommend this product to a friendThease felt socks filter great, they catch all the small stuff floating in the tank, and the draw string makes them easy to attach to almost any plumbing.
EXCELLENT By marc on 5/10/2014marc would recommend this product to a friendI received the item quickly and am very happy with the quality of the product. It has made a drastic difference in the clarity of my tank and does a good job in removing the larger particles from the water.
brs rocks By mario on 3/30/2014mario would recommend this product to a friendeverything i order from brs is top quality and gets to me in a timely matter although i think shipping is just a little high .
Excellent By Esquare on 3/30/2014Esquare would recommend this product to a friendThese have a lot of surface area and do not clog quickly. I would recommend them.
Clears a tank in no time By Gunsnroses on 3/16/2014Gunsnroses would recommend this product to a friendBought 4 of these to use on my 180g system. Dumped 140lbs of sand and 200lbs of rock in my tank and this sock cleared the water in less than 6 hours. Toss in the washing machine and ready to use again.
Love the draw string feature! By Nil on 3/14/2014Nil would recommend this product to a friendLove the draw string feature, haven't found elsewhere. Strings make it much more easy fro me to tie them around the outlets than the plastic rims. Good offerings in terms of sizes.
Great filter socks By Pam on 2/6/2014Pam would recommend this product to a friendI have the large and smaller socks on aquariums here. They work well and launder fairly good. I usually have to wash them inside out and then wash again right side out in order to get them snowy white but it is a lot less expensive than using filter floss. I am sure I will be buying more when these wear out.
Good Bags By Steve on 1/20/2014Steve would recommend this product to a friendAnother quality product from BRS. I needed them to hold carbon for my 10 and 20 gallon nano's. They were actually big for my filters so I cut them in half, sewed them up with fishing line and now have twice as many.

One Good Turn Deserves Another: Giveaway Time!
So thank you, Kristie and Randi. And everybody knows that when you win a giveaway, you should appease the giveaway gods by offering one of your own, right? Plus, I recently surpassed 200 followers. Yep, it's giveaway time.
So I've got a collection of Wonderland fat-eighths here. Who wants 'em? Anybody? There are scissors in there! And butterflies!
To win, just leave me a comment telling me your favorite fabric line. And I would love to hear about lines that I may NOT have seen a million times all over blogland. I adore Denyse Schmidt and Momo as much as the next girl, and they deserve all the attention they get. But I also want to seek out the under-appreciated little guys. What lines or designers do you think are undiscovered? Aren't getting the attention they deserve?
I'll draw a winner on Valentine's Day morning. Nothing like a little fabric love to start your holiday off right. Good luck!
P.S. Voting starts today for the Gen X Quilters Love Nest Quilt Contest. Head over there to check out some beautiful bed-size quilts and vote for your favorite. My Single Girl is vying for the title—I'd love it if you would cast a vote for her. : )
124 comments:
I would have to say my favorite line is Meadowsweet 1 & 2! Such pretty patterns and colors!ReplyDelete
Go check out the purse I just made with Meadowsweet 2! Its on my Blog
Thanks for this fab chance to win!
not been sewing long so don't know many designers yet but I do know I'm always drawn to Michael Miller fabrics.ReplyDelete
come visit the giveaway on my blog:
Leigh at The Sewing Diva
I am in love with everything Kate Spain!!! I know she isn't under discovered but I just love her stuff!!ReplyDelete
I personally Love Laura Gunn! I know her prints are large, but they are so sophisticated. I love the new Magnolia Lane line. She's incorporated some smaller florals and a plaid. The colors are lucious.ReplyDelete
I am currently obsessed with Hideaway! It's making me a little crazy.ReplyDelete
Congrats on your win, and thanks for the giveaway!
I am in love with all things Anna Maria Horner. She has a nack for mixing geometrics with florals. I'm head over heals for Innocent Crush right now.ReplyDelete
edethrow at yahoo dot com
right now I am loving everything by Kate SpainReplyDelete
Definetly a Kate Spain fan. Her fabric, her blog, everything!ReplyDelete
Right now I am just in love with the orange and yellow palette in the Kate Spain Central park collection. :DReplyDelete
You got some wonderful things with your gift card! And wonderland?! Be still my heart!ReplyDelete
I love the Central Park, Sunkissed & Dilly Dally.ReplyDelete
And I think Calypso Swing can get a little more attention too :)
Thanks for the chance!
I am into sandy gervais...altho I don't think she is undiscovered.ReplyDelete
I also really like lizzy house - i fell in love with lizzy dish!!!!
I really loved working with Sandi Henderson's Meadowsweet...orange flowers on browns...great fabrics. I also really love Amy Butler's Lacework fabric. I've used both of these for handbags...not sure they'd do well in a quilt...but they were adorable bags!ReplyDelete
Thank you for a lovely giveaway!
Currently, I am sort of in love with wonderland, but my all time favorite is Authentic and neptune. And whenever I go into a quilt store I always scour the shelves first too look for any hidden bolts.ReplyDelete
For one that doesn't get mentioned often, I like Wee Woodland. I also love Central Park and Innocent Crush. And anything Amy Butler!ReplyDelete
I love everything by Dena Designs....she has a beautiful blog and a lot of talent! Currently you could look at Kumari Garden or Leanika (from last year)....just amazing! Thanks for the chance to enter....ReplyDelete
I do not have a favorite line of fabri, yet. But right now, I am into solids.ReplyDelete
That is an easy one for me. I still love Make Life from Sweatwater - it has been my favorite for sometime now.ReplyDelete
I made a tote bag using momo wonderland charm squares. I just love this fabric and wish that I bought more of it. I love Heather Ross fabrics and wish I bought more of her earlier fabric lines.ReplyDelete
I really don't know which line is my favorite! I just adore all fabric...even the ugly ones! I host a Dare To Be Ugly Challenge once a year and have so much fun with that! :)ReplyDelete
And if you want to be pointed somewhere...How about Emily Taylor!! I love her Fall Flourish Collection! Such bright vivid oranges!!
And don;t forget about Kate Spain!!
I just made a quilt top with some of her fabrics and I can't wait to load it on the Gammill!!
I love Kate Spain's Central Park line. And Nancy Mim's Free to Grow line is equally gorgeous - and it's organic cotton!ReplyDelete
Oh I love Meadowsweet 1 and 2, lucky you!! Of course, love Central Park, almost anythign AMH and Amy Butler too...nothing too under the radar however :) Thanks for hosting this giveaway!ReplyDelete
I LOVE Diane Kappa from Anthology Fabrics!!!ReplyDelete
Hi Lee....I love Kate Spain....but I do still really like Thimbleberries...something draws me back there a lot....ReplyDelete
My favorite recently has been Hope Valley-I love small scale prints. Also, I'm generally just a big fan of solids, and I'm starting a new quilt using just Kona solids.ReplyDelete
I like Elenor Grosch's "Zoo Menagerie" for a baby blanket. Thanks for the chance to win!ReplyDelete
This Wonderland looks very interesting! I am drawn to the Riley Blake fabrics because I sew a lot for my granddaughter, but basically, I just love fabric!ReplyDelete
I love Basic Grey fabrics, but I am currently making a quilt with Rosemarie Lavin's Spa... so it is my favorite right now :-)ReplyDelete
I am starting to have a love affair with Sherbert Pips.ReplyDelete
I've been oogling Journeys by Kathy Davis in my LQS since the day I set foot in their store (new to the area, but leaving already). I finally had a reason to pick some up the other day when my mom asked me to make a table runner for her.ReplyDelete
Beautiful purples and blues and I just love the Dragonfly Dance fabric in purple.
Congrats on your giveaway win and thank you so much for doing a giveaway of your own. :)
Congrats on your win and thanks for hosting such a great give-away. I'm loving Laurie Wisburn and Anne Kelle lately.ReplyDelete
My favourite line is Sherbert Pips and I'm haven't even found any yet!!ReplyDelete
I really love Neptune and now Parisville - amazingly rich colors and tiny unexpected details. I also think Urban Couture is amazing a breakthrough line for Basic Grey. I just discovered some fabrics from Prints Charming, an Australian company, that I purchased from The Quilted Castle - it is so soft and beautiful. Can't wait to see what else they come up with! Thanks for the giveaway!ReplyDelete
I really love Valori Wells' Delhi collection. They are so much more beautiful in person! The butterfly print is so great and I adore the big, fluffy mums (they're mums right? I don't know my flowers). It's good stuff and getting harder to find.ReplyDelete
I also really love Tina Givens. Her fabrics don't always appeal to me on their own, but because of the rich and vibrant colors, always look stunning put together in a quilt. Really, really good stuff.
I'm all about Central Park and Robert Kaufman's Modern Living right now. Trying to restrain myself! I love Parisville and basically anything Tula Pink.ReplyDelete
I know - these are all over blogland - what can I say, I'm a lemming. ;)
Meadowsweet is definitely one of my favorite collections. It's hard to choose, because I love Bliss and Central Park also. Thanks for passing on the love ...I mean the fabric.ReplyDelete
My favorite fabric is Henna Garden from Sandi Henderson's Meadowsweet collection. I have it in all colors. LOVE.IT.ReplyDelete
Then Laurie Wisbrun for sure, and Ann Kelle, and lots of solids.
It's hard to choose a favorite fabric line :) I actually have been revisiting some of the prints from Amy Butler's modern meadow line lately, and I think it might be my all time favorite.ReplyDelete
I am currently in love with anything by Tula Pink-- especially her "Plume" line!ReplyDelete
I like just about everything that comes out of Freespirit. Tea Garden is a favorite of theirs from Dena Designs. And I still adore Nest and McKenzie.ReplyDelete
Picking one is so hard! I love just about everything by Patricia Bravo - Sugar was one of my faves.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the chance to win!
I'm totally in love with Saffron Craig's Forest Elements and Owls. Wish they were in my fabric budget! But, then again, even if they were I love them so much I'd probably be to scared to cut into them! I'd just stare at their loveliness and try to dream up a project worthy of them.ReplyDelete
Beautiful fabrics!ReplyDelete
I would love to win!
I love Kate Spain's Central Park fabrics, and anything Anna Maria Horner.
I've been on the hunt for cute BOY lines this past year and some of my favorites are All Star and Cars from Riley Blake and Animal Party by Robert Kaufman.ReplyDelete
THANKS for the chance at those great prints!! I don't have any of those in my stash ~ and would LOVE to create with them :)
I like those scissors & there are plenty of lines I really love, but my ALL TIME favorite is Rainy Days & Mondays by Riley Blake. Those umbrellas and rain drops are just to die for.ReplyDelete
I am a big fan of Lauren & Jessi Jung (created Hideaway, my current obsession). Not really sure if they are "discovered" or not... They are a cute little mom-daughter pair, and they have such great patterns that they design to go along with their fabric!ReplyDelete
Oooh, I do love me some MoMo Wonderland--I have a wee little stash of it, and would love to add to it--then I might actually have enough for a quilt!!ReplyDelete
But one of the unsung heroes I think has been Joel Dewberry. I've loved each of his lines, and each new one perhaps a little more than the ones previous. Modern Meadow has such a great palette, a mix of brights and neutrals, and some really gorgeous prints. I'll admit it, I'm hoarding!
I have fallen in love with Circa 60 Beach Mod by Monoluna for Birch fabrics. It is summery and funky. And right now, since we're buried under so much snow, we need something summery and funky!ReplyDelete
Thank you for such a great giveaway! :)
Chocolate Lollipop and Arcadia... I've been hoarding on to my collection of them. Probably high time I make something out of them for me. Thanks for the chance!ReplyDelete
Umm, can I just pay you for these fabrics, because I have been wanting them, lol! j/k. Recently I have been loving the Tufted Tweets from Robert Kaufman, I made a quilt and a dress with those fabrics.ReplyDelete
Saffron Craig.ReplyDelete
She is an independent fabric designer in Australia. Her Forestal Elements series is one of my favourite lines, especially the purple/orange series.
After her? Anything that the ladies of Prints Charming execute. I wish I had a shop nearby like theirs where I could refine my screen printing skills.
You've probably seen this a bazillion times in blog land but I am totally in LOVE with Moda Central Park by Kate Spain! Did you know you can buy matching plates at Crate & Barrel? How cool. Thanks for the giveaway and I always enjoy Work in Progress Wednesday :DReplyDelete
Well I just went to the Fabric Depot in Portland, Oregon and found a huge loft of lines that I just never heard of but may have seen surfing on the web. I'm in love with Kate Spains's new Central Park. I guess if it's the small designers it's Sherbet Pips by Aneela Hoey. Ugh - how about Valori Wells in my part of the world. Anne Kelle HmmmmmReplyDelete
I am loving Carolina Chambray...i love the depth in the colors and i like the weight of the fabric over my other love of shot cottons. great giveaway.ReplyDelete
One of my favorite is a fabric line from My minds eye by Riley Blake called Andrea Victoria. Oh so pretty.ReplyDelete
I love Heather Mulder Peterson as a designer--my LQS carries Henry Glass fabric and I seem to keep picking up her designs (see: my sliced coins quilt, which I didn't realize was HMP until I'd unfolded what I bought!).ReplyDelete
I love some of the Aunt Grace prints. Her dots and ginghams are just the right color and scale for so many projects.ReplyDelete
Aren't you lovely to pay your good luck forward! Thanks for the giveaway!ReplyDelete
I'm really digging Anna Griffin's Darcey Collection (Windham Fabrics) these days. Great basics.
Hi I like most designers but have really been admiring some of French General, also Kate Spains fabrics are yummy! :)ReplyDelete
Sorry, not a label kind of gal. But those fabrics are darling. I just pick what I like regardless of who they are.ReplyDelete
I'm a Kate Spain lover.The more I see of Ty Pennington's line, the more I like it as well. Thanks for the opportunity to win!=)ReplyDelete
I'm really in love with Tula Pink's Plume now...ReplyDelete
I'm fairly new to quilting, but I have always been drawn to the quirky Alexander Henry stuff (especially if there are birds involved), and a line called Boutique by Chez Moi. So girly (unlike myself!)ReplyDelete
hmm...i love the meadowsweet lines, i am working on a pillow right now using them, also lizzy house, and i'm ready to buy parisville! :)ReplyDelete
I have many favorites. Among them are Simple Abundance and Bliss from Bonnie and Camille, anything Kate Spain, and Amy Butler. Just to mane a few.ReplyDelete
You know, they aren't "cool" but I love the 1930's reproduction fabric. Some are WAY too sugary-cute, but many have the same feel as the much loved Katie Jump Rope line or the Japanese fairy tale fabric.ReplyDelete
Laura Gunn has some great lines inspired by her art. I have to like her stuff because I went to HS with her husband and was roommates at college with her sister-in-law. My small claim to borrowed fame. :)
Thanks for the chance to win! I have been waffling about buying this line for months. Love it.
I kinda dig the new stuff by Jay McCaroll of Project Runway. :)ReplyDelete
I am another fan of Kate Spain. I just love her Central Park range.ReplyDelete
Hmmmmm....that's a hard job to name a favorite. At this very moment, I would pick KT Perennials.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the giveaway!
wah-modern by hokkoh. I love the dashed lines print and I can't find it anywhere :(ReplyDelete
I'm loving Lizzy House, looking forward to 1001 Peeps soon!ReplyDelete
I love Erin McMorris' Park Slope. Is that too cliche? Thanks for the giveaway!ReplyDelete
I just discovered Victoria And Albert "The Grand Tour". This fabric line is incredible!!!ReplyDelete
I must admit I am a Kate Spain fan. The hits keep rolling out with Kate.ReplyDelete
I really love Sanctuary right now. I have FQ's of the pink and brown line, but I really want the blues and greens.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the awesome giveaway and congrats on over 200 followers! One of my favorite designers is Patricia Bravo. Her fabrics are gorgeous. Not really undiscovered, but not mentioned nearly as often as Denyse!ReplyDelete
One of my all time favorites that you don't hear too much about anymore is Freshcut by Heather Bailey. A new one I'm excited that's being released in new colors is Aviary by Joel Dewberry.ReplyDelete
I'm in love with the line my local quilt store just got, Space Invaders. :-) Not sure the designer, but hubby and me both used to play and I couldn't resist.ReplyDelete
I love anything by MoMo! Thanks for such a great giveaway!ReplyDelete
Jennifer :)
My favorite right now is a tiny line by Kaufman called Double Happiness. I love light blue and brown together. It's hard to find, though!ReplyDelete
For something different I likeReplyDelete
Mary Lou Weidman's fabric lines
I always go to Holly Taylor for my guys - beautiful fabric w/ nature designs. Love it.ReplyDelete
I am liking the Mocha or Espresso Swiss Chocolate by Amanda Murphy for Robert Kauffman right now. (and anything with cute owls!) Thanks for the chance!ReplyDelete
Wow! I can't believe you're giving that lovely swirl of fabrics away!ReplyDelete
My favorite line of fabrics is the old school floral Liberty lawns. I had so many baby dresses from them as a little girl and my mum started a grandmother's flower garden from yardage she picked up on trips to London. So it's a very nostalgic range as well as uber pretty!
Love your giveaway and would love a chance at winning it.ReplyDelete
I love fabric by Saffron Craig (an Aussie fabric designer). Franchelle Contreras also has some lovely fabric (through I Henry Glass I think).
It's hard to pick a favorite, but I surprised myself by liking the "Habitat" line by Bernartex, after seeing it in a quilt!ReplyDelete
Anna Maria Horner!! And Alexander Henry. Swoon.ReplyDelete
I have so many favorites! I love Old sheets and pillowcases for fabric but designers I love Anna Maria Horner, and Liberty - one that might not be as well known is Tina Givens Chloe's Imagination - love the ladybugs, bumblebees, and exotic birds she uses in a modern way.ReplyDelete
Congrats on 200 followers! :)ReplyDelete
I love everything by Erin McMorris. I think her Weekends line is really underrated, it's one of my favorites!
Thanks for a lovely giveaway!
Yay! Glad you got your goodies, and good picks! Yes, Randi is the best :-)ReplyDelete
As for fabrics, right now I am crushing a bit on Farmdale by Alexander Henry and those little campers by Monaluna get me thinking of summer! Also really like Saffron Craig's vibrant colors....
I'm a newbie, so my faves keep changing! but I just found Anna Maria Horner's Little Folks Voile's and they are stunning! I have a few scraps, but I think I'm going to need a whole lot more now!ReplyDelete
Thanks for the chance :)
hugs, margie
TheBumbleGirl at Rocketmail.com
I'm a Laurie Wisbrun fan. She's not so undiscovered, but also I still think she's on her way up! Congrats on 200 girl!ReplyDelete
I love Bliss right now, but who doesn't? I also love Meadowsweet- both collections. And I really liked Oz. (Did I mention that I can never choose just one favorite?)ReplyDelete

Fins Bois
Cognac is rarely born of a single eau-de-vie or a single growing area, but generally from a blend of different ages and crus, sometimes up to a hundred of them.
It can be made also exclusively from certain "cru", for example exclusively from "Grande Champagne", but of different ages.
Fins Bois : 37,000 hectares of soil. characterized by quick aging environment. A subtle flowery bouquet characterizes this eau de vie. The largest, and by far the intriguing cru, is Fins Bois. Geographically, it rings the other three crus. It lies, approximately, in the triangle between the towns of Rouilliac, Matha and Pons. It has a rich, full, strong aromas with a touch of the maritime climate.

text: This Onza fell out of tune with the Martin fix all package, TGR/SOS. The new cable slide setup does not have the same tension at rest that the TRG did. I know how to tune the cams by adding a few twists into the Cables. My question is can the limb bolt be competely bottomed or do you back them off say 1/4 turn? My Ice Man requires they be backed off some, not an issue because I have them backed out from 60#s to 55#s. The very late in coming manual on these bows does not say if they should be backed out or not. It's a 50# peak weight bow and only shows 46#s now. What say the Martin Masters, bottom them out or not?

2014 FGC Gathering Theme : Let Love Be The First Motion
"Twelfth of sixth month being the first of the week and a rainy day, we continued in our tent, and I was led to think on the nature of the exercise which hath attended me. Love was the first motion, and thence a concern arose to spend some time with the Indians, that I might feel and understand their life and the spirit they live in, if haply I might receive some instruction from them, or they might be in any degree helped forward by my following the leadings of truth among them; and as it pleased the Lord to make way for my going at a time when the troubles of war were increasing, and when, by reason of much wet weather, travelling was more difficult than usual at that season, I looked upon is as a more favorable opportunity to season my mind, and to bring me into a nearer sympathy with them. As mine eye was to the great Father of Mercies, humbly desiring to learn his will concerning me, I was made quiet and content."
From Woolman, John. The Journal of John Woolman. Vol. I, Part 2. The Harvard Classics. New York: P.F. Collier & Son, 1909–14; Bartleby.com, 2001. www.bartleby.com/1/2/ [Date of Printout 11/15/2013].
The events surrounding a later battle of the French and Indian war, which started at Fort Necessity, are mentioned by John Woolman, in the same section as he talks of love being the first motion.
"After I had been asleep a short time I was awoke by a man calling at my door, and inviting me to meet some Friends at a public-house in our town, who came from Philadelphia so late that Friends were generally gone to bed. These Friends informed me that an express had arrived the last morning from Pittsburg, and brought news that the Indians had taken a fort from the English westward, and had slain and scalped some English people near the said Pittsburg, and in divers places. Some elderly Friends in Philadelphia, knowing the time of my intending to set off, had conferred together, and thought good to inform me of these things before I left home, that I might consider them and proceed as I believed best."

Cartersville police arrested Brettney Anwarr Moore, 26, of Cartersville Wednesday night at his home in connection with the death of Randall Statler on Dec. 16, 2012, at the Sun-Glo Car Wash, 390 Martin Luther King Jr. Drive. Moore is charged with murder and two counts of armed robbery and currently is awaiting his first court appearance.
The 28-year-old victim had been mudding earlier that day and was washing his truck between 7 and 8 p.m. when two suspects attempted to rob him. Statler was shot once in the head.
"Since Dec. 16, we have put considerable resources into solving this crime. This is, in my opinion, one of those true whodunnit-type of crimes. It required a lot of hours of work and investigative effort," Police Chief Thomas Culpepper said during a press conference Thursday.
With Moore behind bars, authorities now are seeking a second man, who has not been identified.
Lead investigator David Bojczuk said based on statements, officials feel comfortable the incident stemmed from an attempted robbery.
"Well, we know for sure that their statements — the suspects' — that robbery was the key to that," he said. "During the day, there was motive [for the suspects] to rob someone and [Statler] was at the wrong place at the wrong time. They were hurting for money."
Police could not say Thursday what Moore and his accomplice took from the scene aside from the victim's cellphone. Money was found at the scene.
"We're not sure if that's all they took, but we know that a phone was taken," Bojczuk said. "There were a few calls made after; however, we tried to track them, which didn't pan out. Pretty much it was hang-up calls, so we really couldn't track that anywhere. We attempted — it's called pinging, it pings from the tower — it didn't give us much information."
When asked what items were recovered from the scene, the investigator declined to detail the inventory, saying, "There were lots of things left in the truck."
Bojczuk declined to say what caliber weapon was used, whether the murder weapon had been recovered and which suspect was the triggerman.
With no apparent connection between Statler, who had no criminal background, and the two suspects, it is unclear why the two men would kill Statler and not take cash and valuables.
"We think they could have been spooked and they could have ran. Due to the fact of how the scene was, they may have gotten scared before they could finish what they were going to do," Bojczuk said.
"There is a thing in this world called evil. To me, that's what that is. 'OK, steal my money, but you don't have to shoot me,'" Culpepper said. "You have some people in this world that don't think like that, that there's no regard for human life. That's why I say, we believe it was important to get this person off the street because of that very thought process that we believe is going on in that's person head."
Moore, who was sentenced in 2009 to 15 years in prison with five to serve — he was out in half that — for drugs, has been a person of interest for some time. The second suspect, a transient man from the area, came to light just recently, according to CPD Capt. Mark Camp.
Although the shooting took place between 7 and 8 p.m., the first 911 call did not come in until almost 3 1/2 hours later, which created difficulties in the almost-five-month investigation.
"There was a lot of different time frames in reference to when this actually occurred due to the fact that the call was actually taken about three hours after the actual incident occurred," Bojczuk said. "After that, we received some information just in the past week that actually gave us a closer time frame by one of the witnesses, so once we were able to get the narrowed time frame, we went back and reviewed some of the surveillance tapes and put more people in the area and were able to ID some people ... ."
He said authorities had ferreted out information by going door to door in the area asking questions. Trying to locate and talk to witnesses was part of the delay in making an arrest, he added.
"Like I said, some of the stuff was not in sequence that we had it ...," Bojczuk said. "Due to the time frame of how long he sat there, we really didn't know exactly when it occurred. Once we were able to finally narrow it down, certain things we actually discovered and we located some people on some cameras and we interviewed them. The information started flowing in."
"The problem we have with cases like this is, the longer the delay in people telling us what they know, the longer the delay in us being able to do something," Culpepper said. "Five months is virtually nothing on a whodunnit. If this were 'CSI,' of course, we'd have it done it 45 minutes."
Vacating a building just doors down from the car wash less than two weeks before the shooting, Culpepper said CPD reached out to residents following the incident and stepped up security measures.
"We got a lot of community feedback immediately after that — there was a heightened sense of concern. We did what we could," he said. "What we've done, we've heightened our patrols around there. We've done some other things. We have a drug task force that does a lot of clandestine work for us. They're aware of that area. They're staying on top of things. We're continuing to stay active in the area; we haven't forgotten about that area. We do understand that those who live in that area would be concerned about this."
The area is known for drugs — a tire shop less than a block away was targeted by the drug task force earlier this year for selling prescription medication — and burglaries, with Culpepper saying activity "comes and goes."
"I'm not an alarmist when I see crime trends, but I do have to be aware of them, as the whole department is. I don't see a trend of that kind of crime occurring. I don't see a trend even in that area of anything that would alarm us," he said.
Anyone with information on the case is asked to call CPD at 770-382-2526.

After a pair of races Sunday were canceled by snow, the BMC Racing Team gets back in action Thursday in Italy at GP Citta di Camaiore.
Six Times Up Monte Pitoro
BMC Racing Team Assistant Director Max Sciandri said the 183-kilometer course favors riders like Steve Cummings and Yannick Eijssen, both of whom lasted raced at the Tours of Qatar and Oman. Eijssen was 10th on the Oman stage that finished atop Green Mountain on the way to 13th overall. "It's a little bit of a local race for Steve, being that he lives 40 kilometers from there," Sciandri said. "It will also be nice to see Yannick in a one-day race." The final 129 kilometers take place on a circuit that features six ascents of Monte Pitoro, a 1.9 km climb averaging seven percent. Danish national champion Sebastian Lander, who made his BMC Racing Team debut at another Italian race, Trofeo Laigueglia, is hoping for good weather. "At the moment, the weather in Europe has been pretty bad, so hopefully we can race in the sunshine," he said. "We bring a strong team to the race so I'll be working hard to help our leaders get a good result."
BMC Racing Team GP Citta di Camaiore Roster (Feb. 28):
Stephen Cummings (GBR), Yannick Eijssen (BEL), Sebastian Lander (DEN), Klaas Lodewyck (BEL), Taylor Phinney (USA), Greg Van Avermaet (BEL), Larry Warbasse (USA).

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (March 20, 2013)—Dhaamer, who won the Round Table Stakes and Sunset Handicap during the 2012 Spring/Summer meet at Betfair Hollywood Park, will make his first start as a 6-year-old in the $100,000 Tokyo City Cup Saturday at Santa Anita.
A Grade III for older horses at 1 ½ miles, the Tokyo City is the seventh of nine races. Post time Saturday at Santa Anita is 12:30 p.m. Track gates at Betfair Hollywood Park will open at 10:15 a.m. for simulcasts.
Trained by Mike Mitchell for owners Edward Brown, Jr. and Jay Manoogian, Dhaamer has been away since finishing second as the 6-5 favorite in the Del Mar Handicap last Aug. 25.
Prior to his narrow defeat to Casino Host in the Grade II, the Irish bred gelding had won the Round Table by 4 ½ lengths as the 11-10 favorite and the Sunset by 3 ¼ lengths as the 2-5 choice. Both of those wins came at 12 furlongs, but were on the turf.
In his only previous race on conventional dirt, Dhaamer, who is a son of Dubai Destination, was second, beaten by a neck by Dynamic Host, in the 2012 Tokyo City Cup.
Out of the Ahonoora mare Arjuzah, Dhaamer has won five of 15 and earned $214,272.
From inside out, the field for the Tokyo City Cup: Dreamcatcher, Joe Talamo rides, 118 pounds; Sky Kingdom, Martin Garcia, 118; Batti Man, Brice Blanc, 118; Oilisblackgold, Edwin Maldonado, 118; Richard's Kid, Tyler Baze, 120; Calidoscopio, Aaron Gryder, 123; Jaycito, Alonso Quinonez, 118 and Dhaamer, Rafael Bejarano, 120.

Trip Leader
Mount Shaw 2990' via Sentinel Mountain, Canaan Mountain 2072', Mount Flagg 2800', and descending by Black Snoot 2803' and Big Ball Mountain 2015'
8.5 Miles 3000 +/- Elevation gain
Kevin, Judy and Emma and a host of others!
We seldom plan to do a hike more than a week in advance, and we seldom respond to open calls, but when we saw the plans for this hike posted and saw the line up of folks who were interested in making this hike we knew we wanted to join in. Anticipation grew as the date approached and we kept a close eye on the weather which was threatening to be a wash out for the day in question. For once the weathermen got it right and the hike had to be postponed to the following day. Sunday morning folks began arriving at the designated spot where a bull moose decided to put on a show for the early arrivals. We arrived just in time for him to spook and head off across a meadow and disappear into the forest. Soon a large group had gathered and we began the trip to the carspot and the trailhead. On the way over it rained pretty hard but a quick check of some electronic gadgets showed the squall line passing and little rain coming our way for the rest of the day. We started out on a wet trail on our way to our first outlook on Sentinel Mountain. On the way up it was disappointing to see that there had been recent logging done there, but thats how it goes sometimes. It will add a more diverse habitat for the local wildlife and five years from now will hardly be noticeable. Climbing up to Sentinel was a sort of homecoming for me as it was the first thing outside of Massachusetts I had ever climbed going back over thirty years ago. At the ripe age of eighteen I made the climb with my future first wife. We were well equipped with a pack of cigarettes and a bottle of wine. At least I'm somewhat older and wiser now. Well, at least older. After a few quick group summit shots we were off along the trail towards Cannan mountain which the trail skirts around the south shoulder of, then on to Mount Flagg which has some good views to the north from its ledges before reaching the rampart like summit where a scramble up onto the rock heap affords a 360 degree view. As we had climbed the temperature had dropped about 20 degrees and the wind picked up significantly, although at the same time the sun made its appearance. From Flagg we made a beautiful climb through a lovely birch forest on our way to the high point of our trip, Mount Shaw. Along the way there was a lot of scrambling to do over broken boulders which made the going a bit slow and somewhat difficult, but the rocky sections were broken up by smooth paths through birch forests and some sections of smooth slabs, so the going wasn't always tough. On the summit of Mount Shaw we gathered again for lunch. Many folks had brought along treats to share and my one regret of the day was that I didn't snag a cupcake when I had a chance. I thought I'd get one later, then missed out. Sigh! The usual incredible view to the north was obscured today by a number of snow squalls that moved quickly across the landscape. We had a perfect vantage point to watch these so it was a good consolation prize for missing out on the view. The clouds made for interesting skies all day long and I can't speak for everyone, but days like this are much more fun for me than clear blue skies. From Shaw we made our way along a carriage road over to Black Snoot. (We decided to call this summit Black Snoot so as not to be confused with the other Black Snout further to the north. No one can come up with a good explanation as to why there are two.) The carriage roads had been made all over this section of the mountains to entertain the owners of the famous Castle in the Clouds. It was nice to have some easy terrain to hike for a while. From Black Snoot there is a great view west across Lake Winnepesaukee to the Belknap Range. We watched more squalls drift across the massive lake and the sun found holes in the clouds where it reached down to the surface of the lake and lit it up with brilliant, shimmering patches of iridescence. Descending from Black Snoot we were soon scrambling up to the summit of Big Ball Mountain where we stopped to watch the play of sunlight and dark clouds as snow squalls passed over the great lake. To the east there was a brief, faint rainbow over Dan Hole Pond. Eventually we made our way down the slippery, leaf-strewn trail back to our waiting cars where we piled in and drove back to our starting point. It was great to spend the day talking to all the different folks who were along on this trip. I wish I could have spent more time getting to know everyone, but it was great just to get to meet them all. Trips like these reinforce the belief that the hiking community as a whole is full of great people who are willing to share their time and knowledge to introduce others to all the little slices of heaven that the northeast has to offer. Sometimes we get caught up in hiking lists and forget to go out and explore. The Ossipees are a perfect excuse to put aside the lists and go out and discover another section of the world that we may have overlooked.

Welcome to the Healdsburg Unified School District – Small enough to know our students, families and community members personally; connected to the wider world via technology. As we prepare our students for their futures as citizens of the 21st century, we remain committed to our small town "feel" and quality educational program.
Our Mission
The Mission of the Healdsburg Unified School District is that all HUSD students graduate from high school prepared for college, career and citizenship with the skills necessary to thrive in the 21st century.
Our Vision
Our vision is for students to be contributing, responsible, and active participants in their community, demonstrating individual respect and responsibility.
In keeping with this vision:
- Our District will implement new ideas, strategies, and technologies to provide a model academic program that others will emulate.
- Our innovative educational program will propel our students into the second half of the 21st century.
- Our schools will prepare our students to be leaders in the world they will enter.
Local Control and Accountability Plan Information
Schools across California are preparing for a new funding model. The new model, known as Local Control Funding Formula, requires school districts and charter schools to identify activities related to increasing student achievement through eight priorities.
The eight priorities are:
- Teacher Credentialing/Instructional Materials/Facilities
- Implementation of Common Core State Standards and English Language Development Standards
- Parental Involvement and Input
- Student Achievement
- Student Engagement
- School Climate
- Course Access
- Other Student Outcomes: We have some latitude here to identify our own priorities. We have chosen…
A written plan is required to address all students, but these four groups receive extra attention:
- English Learners: students whose first language is a language other than English
- Reclassified Students: students who were English Learners and who are now proficient in English and working on grade level
- Economically Disadvantaged Students: Students whose families are low income
- Foster Youth
The plan is known as the Local Control and Accountability Plan or LCAP. The most recent version of our plan is available in the 'Parent Locker' area of our website (English or Spanish).
While this is a new process for us, it is the start of an ongoing one. Each year, the LCAP will be reviewed to be sure that we completed the activities, to determine that student achievement is indeed increasing, and to plan for the following year. The LCAP covers three years, but it expected to be updated, reviewed and approved on an annual basis.
The District has been working actively to address many of the same priorities through the Innovation Design process. A copy of our current plan is available on the District's website. It describes our priorities and the action steps necessary to address them.
Charter schools are required to have their own LCAP. The LCAP for Healdsburg Charter School (HCS) is available here. The HCS LCAP in many ways mirrors the District's LCAP. It is available in Spanish here.
The highlights of key activities from the draft of the Healdsburg Unified LCAP are:
- Continue to develop a 21st century educational program including technology, project-based learning and the Common Core State Standards to increase student engagement through a real-world connection.
- Expand the emphasis on preparing students for college and career readiness through a rigorous course of study, career-oriented classes and a push to get the English Learners to English proficiency
- Foster an environment of active involvement of our parents and staff in a variety of settings such as Governing Councils, Innovation Design Teams, Professional Learning Communities and more.
- Provide support for students through counseling (new K-8 counselor), social-emotional learning (Toolbox and other programs) and interventions for students who are not working at grade level.
- Focus on the 'whole student' through fine-tuning the Physical Education program so that students develop lifelong patterns of wellness.
- Continue to improve our facilities beginning with extensive modernization and new construction at Healdsburg Junior High School in June 2014.
Each activity is connected with specific measures that are designed to monitor our progress in each area. We will report on our results each year.
Note: The current versions of our two LCAP's were approved by the Healdsburg Unified School District Board of Trustees on 6/25/14.

The plot of the play revolves around two young missionaries who are sent on a mission in poverty ridden Uganda. The musical deals with the themes of faith, values and blasphemy but all in a comical tone.
The cast recording of the original Broadway show has also been released by Ghostlight Records. Making history the recording went on to be the highest charting Broadway album in more than forty years. Boasting of a great musical score and packed with comedy, the musical makes for a great theatre experience.
Get The Book of Mormon Chicago tickets to see the production. Due the foul language and explicit sexual reference, the musical is not recommended for children under the age of four.

I am a Archery Tech at a local shop. I am in no way the best tech, but I have been avid bowhunter for a long time, and am very mechanical. I have worked there for about 7-8 weeks now, and am pretty fluent with all of the common archery pro shop activities. (setting draw lenght with most modules, timing cams, serving, back serving, cat whiskers, etc etc)
With the opportunity to buy a new bow at a reduced price, I decided I couldnt turn it down. After doing alot of research and shooting, I decided I really like the Onza 3.
I ordered the Black (carbon color actually) model, I have it outfitted with with a QAD drop away. I do have catwhiskers, and I know that is hurting me. Shooting 312 grain arrows at 62lbs (5.03 grains/lb) and 28" (actually 28.5" according to measuring) I am only shooting 278. Which I below is about 20-25 low (at the 28" mark, and even lower for 28.5")
I know that their is some intense tuning that goes on in this cams, and I was wondering if anybody could outline the process, short of referencing a bunch of other forums requiring me to create a bunch of memberships.
I absolutely love the bow, and am more than happy with 280ish fps, but always trying to get as much as I can out of the bow.
I will get some pictures up later, nothing better than a little bow porn

Been werkin up to it on the old parker , just got done do in 15 xs outa 16 ,and it dont hert!! with my saber at 70 lbs, yup im goin huntin this weeked!!!!!!!
Had a doe under my tree at 6:10 on Saturday, shooting light isn't until 6:30 - was still just a little too dark to make out the full form confidently to make a shot. Had a chance at one on Sunday also, came out around 4:20, but came in fast and I didn't have much time to react to the fact it was a doe. A lot of the ground cover is still up otherwise I would have seen her coming a lot sooner and the squirrels were making a ton of noise, so I kinda thought it was another one of them suckers again. Managed to get my bow without being noticed, but she stopped 5 yards from the tree facing me. Could just barely see her flank and there as no way I was going to take that shot going just about straight down to a doe standing straight at me. She stopped long enough that if she was broadside it would have been a done deal and then trotted off straight ahead and then turned where I could have possibly made a shot if the canopy wasn't still up. Got a feeling it's gonna be a good season.

1861 - 1865
Arizona Timeline
1861 - Civil War begins and U. S. Military posts are abandoned in the Arizona portion of the New Mexico Territory.
1863 - Fort Mojave is re- garrisoned by two companies of Fourth California Volunteers. John Moss discovers a rich gold deposit near Oatman.
1863 - Arizona segregated from New Mexico Territory and Mohave County is one of the first counties to be established.
1864 - The incorporation of the Mohave and Prescott Toll Road is approved by the Legislative Assembly.
1864 - Territorial capital moves from its provisional site at Camp Whipple to Prescott. John N. Goodwin is the first territorial governor.
Abraham Lincoln was born in
Kentucky in 1809. He had little
formal schooling, but taught
himself to read. He worked as a
storekeeper, rail splitter, and
surveyor. He entered politics in
1834, practiced law for twenty
years, and joined the Republican
party in 1855.
Mary Todd Lincoln was born in
1818 in Kentucky. She was an
attractive young woman, just 5
feet 2 inches tall to Lincoln's 6
feet 4 inches. She met Abraham
Lincoln in 1838 in Springfield,
Illinois, where she had gone to
live with her sister. They were
married in 1842. They had four
sons; only Robert Todd lived to
President Abraham Lincoln gained national prominence in 1858 in a series of debates with Stephen A. Douglas. He was elected president in 1860,
before the start of the Civil War, and from the outset made it clear he believed the national government had the power to preserve the Union. He soon
realized the war could not be ended without freeing of the slaves. Re- elected in 1864, he urged leniency toward the South. On April 14, 1865, he was
shot by John Wilkes Booth at Ford's Theater in Washington, and died the next morning.
Mary Todd Lincoln was a misunderstood and tragic figure. Her marriage was often turbulent and unhappy, but Lincoln was known to say he had never
fallen out of love with her. During the Civil War, she was scorned by southerners as a traitor and suspected by northerners of treason. Lincoln's
assassination shattered Mary Lincoln and she never recovered. She died in 1881 in Springfield.

One of the most important decisions facing the City Council is to determine whether the city should keep its police contract intact with the Stanislaus County Sheriff's Department — and then negotiate the terms of that agreement.
City leaders will want to review the matter carefully. On one hand, the city has benefited from many of the services the sheriff's department has provided at no extra cost to the city. At the same time, financial constraints on the county and the sheriff's department may lead to greater recruiting challenges down the road.
While the city will not likely be ready to resume running its own police force this year, officials would be wise to consider how that might be done in the future.
The council also is slated to approve several master plans on topics including public safety, transportation, storm drains and sewage collection, sewage treatment, water and parks and recreation. All of these plans are important in providing guidance for the city.
An economic development strategy that the city's economic strategic commission plans to complete this year will also be important, as it will outline the types of businesses that would fit best in Patterson.
It is also encouraging to hear that the council will take a hard look this year at ways to improve the downtown. The historical area has much potential but has been lagging in recent years, as the city's retail center has shifted to Ward and Sperry avenues.
We wish city leaders the best in all of these matters and hope they will be able to work together as a team, even when members are in disagreement about certain matters.
After all, if a deeply divided Congress can approve a plan to prevent this nation from falling off the fiscal cliff, we trust that our council members can collaborate effectively in the coming year for the betterment of this city.

On the same lines (avatars), I have been trying to edit mine for some time with no luck. I like the tribal skull, the feathers, and the mohawk but don't care for the scythe & spikes. Anyone want a crack at it? I know there are several computer savvy members on here. I have the avatar saved in several sizes and will email them if anyone wants to attempt it.

THINKING PLAGUE: In Extremis
After 9 years, a new collection of (mainly) Mike Johnson pieces of fiendish complexity, impeccably performed and mixed. Personnel changes: Susanne Lewis' signature voice replaced by Deborah Perry, Bob Drake's bass largely replaced by Dave Willey and his place at the drums by the maestro Dave Kerman. It's sure that Americans now do what used to be the 'progressive' thing better than anybody else, in fact forming a kind of family (highly distinctive similarities between U Totem, 5uu's, and Plague are easy to spot - and not just because of shared musicians but also through compositional, harmonic and melodic affinities. Which is interesting I think, and going somewhere). Mike Johnson is an inventive and painstaking composer and there are sections and moments here which are sublime. As well as things which - for me - could do with crueller pruning (some instrumental prodigality, general prolixity and occasional lapses of taste). But I criticise only because this is a Rolls Royce of a band which sets a standard hard to match and they deserve to be taken seriously.

October 28 – Happy Birthday Joe Page
Before there could be a Rivera or Gossage or Lyle, there had to be a Joe Page. One of seven children, Page was born on October 28, 1917, the son of a Cherry Valley, Pennsylvania coal-miner. Page began his Yankee career as a starter in 1944 when he won five of his first six decisions and made the AL All Star team as a 27-year-old rookie. Page then hurt his shoulder in a fall while running the bases, kept the injury quiet from Yankee skipper Joe McCarthy and proceeded to lose his final six decisions that season. He was used mostly as a starter the next two seasons with mostly unspectacular results which is why he ended up in the place most under-performing starters ended up back in the forties, the bullpen. But instead of treating his new status as a bullpen pitcher as a demotion, Page seemed to relish it.
By 1947 he had evolved the role into one of baseball's first great closers, leading the league in games finished for three straight seasons while winning 34 games in the process. When the "save" became an official Major League stat in 1969, baseball historians reviewed old box scores to apply it retroactively and found that Page led the league in saves in both 1947 and '49, while saving 60 games over that three-season period. Page also appeared in two World Series, winning and saving a game in each Classic, both Yankee victories. After slumping to a 3-7 record in 1950 with an ERA that ballooned to over 5 runs per game, the Yankees released their first-ever ace closer. He tried an unsuccessful comeback with the Pirates a few years later before hanging it up for good.
Page was the first Yankee and first Major League reliever to reach the 20-save mark when he accumulated 27 in 1949. Sparky Lyle was the first Yankee to reach the 30-save mark when he had 35 in 1972. Dave Righetti became the first Yankee to break the 40-save barrier with his 46 in 1986 and the great Mariano Rivera is the only Yankee reliever to save 50 or more games and he's done it twice, the first time in 2001.

Aiming for a 100-percent kid-friendly family room, designer Melanie Elston started with a spill-proof purple rug from Savnik. "You could lose small children in there," laughs homeowner Laura Kofoid.
Emerald green vintage Italian lamps crown a mid-century Monteverdi Young cabinet.
A Victoria Hagan wing chair is fashionably dressed in contrasting fabrics.
In the living room, peacock-blue walls complement the vibrant orange in the adjacent family room. Instead of a sofa, swoop-back chairs from Dessin Fournir are arranged "like campers ringing a bonfire," says Elston.
Elston mixed vibrant patterns--the chair upholstery is "New Wave" from Old World Weavers, and the rug is from Patterson, Flynn & Martin.
A custom-made banquette and an ottoman covered in Bergamo "Bali" silk create a cozy corner.
Traditional dining chairs are given a fresh spin with Colefax and Fowler's leopard-print "Malabar" upholstery.
In the entry hall, a stately grandfather clock and Zuber et Cie's "Les Courses de Chevaux" amazing scenic wallpaper contribute to the home's stunning first impression.
A white "Tulip" chair from Baker and an oversized 1960s enameled sconce pop against walls painted Farrow & Ball's "Hague Blue."
In the home office, Elston created a bold space with Glen Eden's "Out of Africa" rug and yellow curtains in Scalamandré's "Bamboo."
A custom table, 1970s Lucite-and-brass bar stools, and Farrow & Ball "Silvergate" wallpaper create a glamorous corner in the billiards room.
In the game room, green leather upholstery on dining chairs from the '50s mixes with Ralph Lauren Regent Metallics "Summer Gold" paint. "The closest I could come to beige without being beige," laughs Elston.
Stained cork floors create a graphic backdrop for the classic kitchen.
A wall covering from Stark sets the stage for a lively mix of fabrics and patterns in the master bedroom. The rug is from Michaelian & Kohlberg.
Stark's "Gridlock" wallpaper in pink slate and a vanity skirt made with Bergamo's "Saunter" fabric add flirty elements to the otherwise sleek and clean-lined master bath.
David Ricci, Laura Kofoid, and their children, Simon and C.J.
Designer Melanie Elston offers tips on decorating with color and pattern:
- To create a balanced room, offset large patterns with solids or patterns designed on a smaller scale.
- To use color successfully, continuity of tone and intensity from room to room is essential. When using bold colors, be bold everywhere.
- Create transition spaces when using a lot of pattern and color. A great runner and a focal point at a hall's end are all you need.
- I nearly always use a solid on a sofa to anchor the room. I love to then offset that piece with a fun pattern on a shapely chair.
- Mix styles! The beauty is in the mix of modern patterns.
