Big beauty news today, everyone! If you haven't heard already, Tan Mom—that kooky woman from New Jersey who was accused several months ago of taking her 6-year-old daughter to the tanning salon and letting her use one of the beds (she denied the allegations)—has taken a month-long break from sunning, artificial and otherwise. And look at her now!
You all remember how scary she looked before, right? I mean, how could you forget?
Now, I know that none of you gorgeous Beautyfix fans—even those of you who shun the undeniable scientific evidence that tanning beds are terrible and continue to bask in the warmth of the electric beach with nary a care in the world—would ever dream of taking your artificial bronze to the depths of darkness this woman did. (At least, I hope you wouldn't.) But I also know that nobody's perfect. Hey, I'd be lying if I told you I never did the whole tanning bed thing when I was younger! We all make mistakes. And without mistakes, how would most of us ever learn anything?
By now—and particularly with Tan Mom in mind—I hope we've all learned a few truths when it comes to tanning. If not … please allow me to break it down.
- Tanning causes premature aging. I mean, just look at Tan Mom "after." An improvement? Oh, no question. But does that look like the face of a 44-year-old to you?
- Tanning can become a severe compulsion. Believe me, I'm not poking fun with this one. The psychology that governs our ideas on beauty is complex, to say the least—and Tan Mom is another extreme specimen, like, say, Jocelyn Wildenstein. I'm all about doing whatever you want to your face, hair and body that makes you feel better about yourself. But if someone I knew and cared about was taking it to this level or openly aspiring to look like a feline, I'd urge that person to seek professional help, and I hope you'd do the same.
- Tanning doesn't always look good. Any questions?
- There's nothing wrong with admitting you're wrong. I'd imagine it took a lot of guts for Tan Mom to put down the accelerator lotion and say to herself "maybe I have a problem." While she's done irreparable damage to her skin, it's awesome that she found it in herself to break the cycle. She admitted she feels "pale" now and I believe it! I'm no shrink, but if I were a gambling woman I'd bet that something in her brain tells her she NEEDS to be tan. Not merely that she must be tan in order to look better in a bathing suit, but that she will DIE if she doesn't tan enough. This sort of thing doesn't go away in a month, I don't think. So good for Tan Mom. She just did something that surely must have terrified her.
I'll leave you all with a wild idea to chew on—and remember, this is coming from one of the pastiest people in the land. One who has, in the past, tried out every conceivable means of becoming a bronzed babe. Why not just be the color you were born? Why spend so much time and money modifying and damaging your skin in the process? I know, I know, I know. Being tan makes us look skinnier, younger, prettier and blah blah blah. Use a Tan Towel. That's what I do when I change my mind about everything I just said (I am, after all, a woman) and decide being pale is the pits. Or, get a spray tan … just be sure to channel your inner Bill Clinton, and don't inhale.

Gallery: Shipping Container Penthouse With an Empire State Building Vie...
The penthouse consists of two main portions – a refurbished mechanical room and a 20 foot truck container. The yellow aluminum container encapsulates a pretty spacious bedroom, but also has room for a partial patio. To make the bedroom even more space efficient, LOT-EK put the bed on casters so that it could move in and out of the closet.
A metal fire escape ladder (one of LOT-EK's favorite design elements) was installed for access from the bedroom to the lower level living room. The open living space is industrial with exposed beams and pipes. While simple, the room uses some clever space saving techniques like wall-implanted appliances and newspaper dispensers (as shelves). Instead of protruding inward, the built-ins jut out of the exterior of the structure, saving much-needed internal space.

If you are considering modular or prefab home, or looking for an alternative to high cost construction, building with recycled shipping containers is worth taking a look at. There are many considerations that have contributed to the appeal of building with intermodal shipping containers – availability, standardization, the recycled/green factor, economy and speed of construction, their durability, and even their "elegance/grace".
Good resource is the Residential Shipping Container Primer website. A SHOWCASE OF SHIPPING CONTAINER HOMES AND BUILDINGDS, AND A DO IT YOURSELF (DIY) REFERENCE FOR CONVERTING RECYCLED INTERMODAL CARGO SHIPPING CONTAINERS INTO BUILDINGS AND ARCHITECTURE.
Lots of great example buildings, details, facts, and links to other articles. They have something new that you can setup your own project wiki to get help with your project if you are considering a design build project.

Define beauty.
Do we know what it is yet, or do we go by with a gut feeling about what it is, such as one our ancestors had about inertia or gravity?
Is beauty universal?
Joshua Bond
Oct 23 2013: "Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it" (Confucius)Oct 28 2013: Seductiveness, sensuousness, spirituality and certain deeply immersive qualities are, for me, some of the adjectives that define beauty. There are more, but the main thing is where those perceptions come from.
- +3
I think it would be a mistake to try and define a unified idea of what beauty is, so therefore I can only say what my thoughts are on it, which may not be likely to match many other's views.
I don't want to be told what is beautiful and what isn't. If a piece of art for instance, needs an accompanying written explanation as to what is being depicted, then my own perceptions are being devalued, as well as those of the artist. What has been embodied by the artist for people like me to perceive (or not), is ruined by someone else's analysis of it.
Like art, beauty is shallow - almost worthless - if it has to rely heavily on what is expected of it. If there is a slavish following of formal ploys, monetary value or fashionable trends, then beauty and art will not work for me because it is then a response to commercialism, ubiquity and utilitarianism, rather than the uniquely, personally aesthetic.
The beholder of true beauty responds not so much to what has to be 'worked on', but rather to what is instant and visceral. "Love at first sight" would be such a response. Looking at a painting and seeing what lies behind the actual paint itself (in the perceptual sense), would be another.
If attractiveness is shallow, then it is just "pretty". Beauty itself is only accessible at depth, and is perceived even when prettiness is absent. If we are to know the world, then the beauty of it must be sensed at all levels, from its shallow prettiness to its profoundly moving and sublime beauty.
Oct 28 2013: I embrace the idea that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That being said Allan, I agree wholeheartedly that beauty may mean something different to different people.
You, my friend, have expressed many good things about beauty, written with style and grace (which is beautiful to me), so I'll simply say.....I agree with Allen:>)
Oct 29 2013: Thank you Colleen. I think we agree on many things!
While on the subject of beauty - Here in the Southern UK we've just had one of the most powerful storms in decades, and even though trees were being ripped out by their roots and there was structural damage to buildings, I was transfixed by its power and strange beauty. The most powerful gusts happened in the night, but the day before I was lucky enough to experience the storm's leading edge whilst out walking my local hills.
It was a stunningly beautiful thing to experience - being battered by violent squalls and stinging rain arriving through the trees with the roar of an express train, and the next minute witnessing blinding shafts of sunlight illuminating the saturated autumn colours against a blue-black sky behind. It felt like nature in the raw. Scary can be beautiful too!
I hope you're enjoying the beauty of the fall where you are Colleen. Can you describe it? I'd really like to know.
Nov 3 2013: Thanks for the question Allan, because every time I see, or even think of the beauty in our landscape, it brings new joy to my heart and mind:>)
Your story about the beauty of the storm reminds me of my mother....
She used to LOVE thunder and lighting storms, and would follow the storm around the house, looking out the windows to observe the beauty of the storm. I've always thought of my mom as the mighty oak in the middle of the storm, because of the way she lived her life. To watch her following the storm to observe the beauty in it, reinforced this for me...she found, and experienced beauty in everything:>)
Your story also reminds me of reading the book "The Perfect Storm", while cuddling in my bed, with an actual raging storm happening outside.....it was perfect and beautiful....a little bit scary too:>)
I enjoyed the fall season again this year Allan, as I have enjoyed it for 60+ years, and it always AMAZES me! The colors are magnificent.....various shades of green....shades of reds, burgundies, and maroons, yellows, golds and oranges....rich.....rich.....rich colors that look like they came off a pallet of the most gorgeous paint colors imaginable. It doesn't matter how many times I see the display, I am still astounded at the beauty.
This year, my son and his family were here from California. His wife and 9 month old son had never seen the Vermont fall foliage, so we went to the top of Mansfield....the highest mountain, to observe the beauty. Because of the baby, we took our vehicle up the road most of the way and only hiked the last half mile or so. They have an "all terrain" stroller for the babe!!! LOL! :>)
The view was beautiful....as always. I feel like I do not have sufficient words to even describe it! The topic here is "Define Beauty", and as I said, I believe beauty is in the eye of the beholder. For me, the most beautiful practice, is to look at everything as if it is the very first time....with curiosity and love:>)
Johnny Atman
Oct 26 2013: To define Beauty, one must first discover it, behold it, be touched by it, and lay next to it. Yet such a event is so extraordinary in that one must "die" in order to see Beauty. Beauty is the Garment of Truth, of the Divine. Our divided minds cannot perceive Beauty, because Beauty kills...the divided mind. And what is left is a moment that is Eternal, Timeless and Faultless....he who learns to abandon judgement, fault finding, is on the way to seeing Beauty, and in the midst of Beauty, Truth itself resides. Rare is the human that can behold such a moment...our children can, but we pervert their minds and turn them away from Beauty towards Sin, eating of the Fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, of Pleasure and Pain, and trapped between these two, the mind is filled with anxiety and dread...and Beauty is the Princess that needs to be rescued from the faraway castle, guarded by the two-headed beast...

You Beautifully said about Beauty... I appreciate :)

Nov 15 2013: Susan Ann Darley from the Huffinton Post recently published an article(1) pleading that people should listen to more beautiful music to help cope with the physical, emotional, and mental health of their everyday stressful lives. With a cliché, she reminds her readers that music, "is the language of the soul," and even states that its power to heal is equal to the effects of "natural painkillers". Although this article's underlining idea is a lofty way of summarizing the study of music therapy, Darley still falls short from justifying what "beautiful music" really means. Indeed, many academics would agree that "[beauty] is in the culturally conditioned eye of the beholder".(2) Denis Dutton, author of The Art Instinct — a book that explores art aesthetics in relation to evolution and social structures — disagrees with this perspective, that "beauty" is not so ambiguous as it seems, and even states that our regard for what is considered "beautiful" is in fact embedded within the very nature of human life.
- +1
In short, Dutton continues to defend this idea by explaining that the first pieces of art known to human history were hand axes that took on the shape of a teardrop. These objects were used by the male homo erectus and ergaster to "woo" a female into mating, similar to how a man may propose with a teardrop-shaped-diamond ring today.
In essence, the teardrop shape represents the formula for timeless beauty: a perfect balance between masculine and feminine traits, as seen in the ancient hand axe: the voluptuous curve on the bottom of the teardrop is a feminine contour and is balanced by a stark point on top (a masculine aesthetic), which is connected with a transitional tapered edge. This shape is the epitome of contrast, a familiar ideal related to the symbolism that the Chinese Yin Yang embodies also: a balance of positive and negative elements. (3)
Thus, in short, beauty is the balanced contrast of all things: from the prime form to the inversion of itself.Oct 23 2013: Beauty is a characteristic that makes someone or something attractive, However it's not always in the appearance, it usually comes from the core/essence.
We shouldn't judge the book by its cover !!
Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart. ~Kahlil Gibran
Harald Jezek
Oct 23 2013: Beauty is not universal, neither in time nor space. For example, there was a time when full figured women were considered the most beautiful. Today, if we look at top models, the skinnier the better,
- +1
What is considered beautiful also changes from one culture to another.
Beauty is also very subjective. Some people might like a particular painting while others find a dreadful.
With all that said, I don't think there ever will be a universal and objective definition for what is beautiful.
Oct 23 2013: I agree with you again.:)))
If you think it's beauty, then it's beauty in your eyes. It's just a feeling and one's own taste. We have the Chinese saying:"Beauty is the eyes of the beholder"--情(qíng)人(rén)眼(yǎn)里(lǐ)出(chū)西(xī)施(shī).
Oct 23 2013: Hello again Yoka, yes, we have the same saying of "the beauty is in the eye of the beholder". I think this is the only universal statement we can actually make about beauty.
I remember, once I visited the museum of modern arts in Vienna/Austria. There was a painting that consisted of 4 lines and 3 dots.
Until today, I can't understand where the beauty is supposed to be in this painting nor what part of this painting should be considered art.Oct 22 2013: Beauty captures your attention, provokes intrigue, entertains the senses, has your full attention, and leaves you forever changed and wanting another visit.

Oct 29 2013: "sixth sephirot of the Tree of Life, known as Tiferet. "
can you develop?Oct 28 2013: I think there is no perfect definition of beauty. in short, Beauty is the presence of mind, how you see and feel. Person to person there are many view of beauty for same point.Oct 28 2013: Beauty is charm.Oct 23 2013: Beauty is what draws your attention, what you have an attraction to. The definition of beauty differs across the world depending on what that particular culture perceives to be attractive depending on their norm. Different cultures are not going to be attracted to the same thing due to different motives,norms, perceptions and other instances. However, we all develop different opinions that may not contribute to our culture or norm, especially in such a free country as America which is why beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder.Oct 22 2013: it's purely emotional which engender peace&happiness of Human being...beautiful topic thank you

The ability of sensing beauty is one of vitally important instincts or our ancestors' successful experiences saved in our DNA. This is because all beautiful things are good for keeping human DNA alive or our survival.

Odijoo at the 2010 F5 ExpoThursday, April 8th, 2010
Thanks to everyone that dropped by our booth at the 2010 F5 Expo, which took place at the Vancouver Convention Centre in Vancouver, British Columbia, on April 7, 2010.
The F5 Expo is tradeshow and conference, intended to showcase "changing technologies" in the "online space such as social media, search marketing, mobile applications, and future trends." The expo included an exhibition portion, as well as panel sessions and speaking sessions. The keynote speaker was respected author and columnist, Malcolm Gladwell. As a free web-based platform for collaborative online course development, deployment, interaction and delivery, Odijoo fit right in!
We had a lot of fun at the expo and met all sorts of individuals, including:
- Individuals looking for online learning for their business
- Subject matter experts wanting to monetize their knowledge
- Organizations in need of a free web hub for storing organizational material
- Individuals interested in SaaS and social media, who wanted to check out the software
The tradeshow was a wonderful experience and we are looking forward to our next one. In the meantime, here are a few photos we snapped at F5 for your viewing pleasure:

Discussion in 'Odds & Ends' started by oscar_2424, Jul 18, 2006.
Is it really? What did I miss it by - a day?
Apparantly, the person monitoring these threads only wants tennis players on these posts, unless we're making fun of someone...
Y'know, JB, those pics of little Masha in the tiny black shorts are rather compelling.
I also have a... soft spot for this one:
qué culazo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
all I have to say is, wow!
Someone who doesn't get much airtime here: Lucie Safarova.
Something very odd about her, even aside from the fact that she makes even Hantuchova look zaftig. I think it's the eyes; they just don't seem quite... natural. When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back at you, I suppose.
You may have come across this description of Safarova on another board where someone is counting down his list of the "most beautiful tennis players" and was asked if Safarova would be on the list. His reply:
"No. As I said on the previous page, I've never found her to be even remotely attractive and I think she looks like a cross between Rodney Dangerfield and an albino ass goblin. I've never understood why she gets mentioned as being an attractive tennis player. I mean, honestly, when I see pictures of her she looks like someone who's been locked in a dark underground cave for hundreds of years and is only now seeing sunlight for the first time after finally clawing her way out off of the ground. If I wanted to say something positive about the way she looks I could say that she has very striking eyes, but I don't really think that they're striking in a beautiful way so much as a crazed, demented way. Anyway, I don't mean to bash her, cuz I'm sure she's a nice girl, but of all the girls who get mentioned as being attractive, she's definitely the one who baffles me the most."
WOW, tell us how you really feel. :lol:
She's not my cup of tea but the guy who made the original post that I quoted always lets you know how he feels. However, just to keep the pics rolling (less text, more pics), here are a few more.
the koala is damn hot.:shock:
yuck, they look like brother and sister
I've always liked Lucie. I like her game and she seems like a nice person.
This pic and the ones of her with the koala show me she's one of those women whose looks improve very nicely with a little makeup.
In this pic, she's looking very stylish, contemporary and confident.
May I ask for one thing dear friends?
I like many others are new to this topic.
And accordingly we don't know many
many of these beautiful tennis players.
Do you mind if I ask you to place the
name of every chick you leave here?
Thank you.
your welcome
Im loving the pics of this page very very much
I love Jelena J's yellow dress. Also Berdych & Safarova are a cute couple.
I also felt that "brother and sister" vibe after seeing their photos.
yeah except she's ugly. very ugly
Cmon.................... Pawel Korzaniowski edited that page on wiki......
Someone else that doesn't get much airtime here (perhaps for good reason): Alisa Kleybanova. Played well against Sharapova last night, though.
You can just take perhaps out of that statement. No offense.
Ditto this. I've left several messages here asking for the same thing. A lot of these players I do not know and I'm sure there are others here that do not know either. PLEASE put their names under their pictures so we can all enjoy them later on when we see them in person.
Thank you!!
It was an understatement.
Martina Hingis (No longer currently playing)
Maria Sharapova and her left cheek....
I know it's been pointed out before, but...doppleganger?
Elena Vesnina
The one in the orange is Cibulkova.
hah photoshopped to the max
Like a good Burgundy, she just gets better with time.
Look how her skin shines. Definitely too much photoshop.
LMAO! 10 Char...
Caroline has one of the most natural, open, warmest smiles ever. It's a real pleasure to see how much she seems to be enjoying her tennis and her life.
(I wish that for all of us!)
Is that Men's locker room ?

2 1/4 cups
all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon
1/4 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
1 cup
1 (3 ounce) package
cream cheese, softened
1 cup
white sugar
egg yolk
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
1 teaspoon
orange zest
I broke my cookie press and had to improvise and came out with the best cookies ever! I rolled the dough into balls, rolled that in coconut, and put strawberry jam in a thumbprint I made in the middle--people tell me they're the best cookies ever!!
I made this exactly as the recipe said and I tried to press them through a pastry bag...That didn't go so well, it was way too thick to even go through the piping tip so I had to make it softer. This changed the recipe a bit and the cookies came out flat. They tasted VERY good, and they were soft, but I was very disappointed that I couldn't use my pastry bag, and I don't have enough money to buy a press, since I'm a college student and can barely make it as is.

Absolutely perfect little butter cookie that's highly addictive! They just seem to pop right in your mouth. They're not overly sweet and I love the addition of the orange zest. I did increase the cinnamon to 1/2 tsp. but other than that I didn't change a thing. This was a great recipe for a cookie press! Just sprinkle with some colored sugar and you're ready to make a holiday cookie tray look like it came straight from your favorite bakery.
Wow! These knocked my socks off! They are delicious. I also doubled the cinnamon to 1/2 tsp. and added a little nutmeg. Then I added a 1/2 tsp of almond extract to the mix. I colored half the dough green and pressed into Christmas trees and the other half I left white and used a snowflake design. Mine were done in about 5 mins though so the first batch burned (had it set for 12 mins). It also made more than I thought -- between 7-8 dozen. Thanks for sharing!
These are the best cookie press cookies I have ever made. I omitted the zest and added a bit more cinnamon as suggested by other reviewers. I used the disk that I thought most resembled a snowflake and sprinkled them with red, green and white nonpariels before baking. They look so festive and will make a great addition to my cookie trays. Thanks for the recipe
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I lost this recipe years ago and have been unsuccessfully trying to duplicate it for many holidays. I found that by increasing the cinnamon to 1/2 tsp or adding 1/4 tsp nutmeg to recipe, it increases the taste tremendously. Cookie can also be decorated with sprinkles, cherries, or colored sugar for holiday.
Oh my, these are wonderful! I increased the amount of cinnamon, used 1/2 tsp orange extract and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, and used the zest of a whole medium orange to make them extra "orangey". The next batch I plan on dipping one side in Melted Ghirardelli Bittersweet Chocolate. I think that will be heavenly!
*yummy*! I don't have a cookie press (yet), so I made these as regular cookies for one batch, then turned them into thumbprint cookies with raspberry jelly for the next batches -- delicious! Definitely will make these again :)

UPDATE: This story was originally published on October 22.
Perhaps you've heard of a little thing called oxblood (and no, no animals were harmed in the making of this article). You may be a little confused by the name, but we'll break it down for you — call it maroon, call it reddish-purple, call it whatever you want, but the dark, sultry shade has been taking the streets (and the racks!) by storm, and we are so on board. We've been big fans of burgundy (that's the name we're going with) when it comes to wine for
decades years, so it's only natural that the hue should make the jump to our wardrobes.

Good morning. I'm -- Gibbons of WT offshore. Seventy offshore is ongoing gas producer operating exclusively in the Gulf of Mexico. We've been in business 45 years -- went public in January of 2005. If you look at the company highlights here on this page you can see that -- got a few little under 300 employees. Market cap clients of a few minutes ago was right -- -- billion dollars. Insider ownership is at 58% to this company was founded by Tracy chrome. -- Syria's petroleum engineer our -- don't shoot sort of the company and when we talk about the insider ownership and we talk about looking for the shareholders. No one is more focused on shareholder value then the folks at WNC. And I think that you'll see that's a little bit different from some of the companies that use the -- Key financials a little over a billion dollars of revenue in 2007. Through the first nine months of this year we've generated one point one billion dollars of revenue. And 862 million dollars. Even. Proved reserves at the end of 2007. We're 649. -- and that's before considering. A sixty pleased that we bought. When we bought the remaining interest -- -- shall 34 inoperable cancer. You can see that hour or -- all the liquids or about 48%. Sources on natural gas it 52%. Those people think of the Gulf of Mexico was primarily natural gas. As you see these numbers this is not that much different than what you look if if you see your competitors. There's a lot more open Gulf of -- than people realize especially as they've gone deeper and they -- deeper we found what. We have one point seven million acres gross in the Gulf of Mexico we are considered the total orders -- -- holder in the conventional shelf. Behind Chevron and Apache. We have 73% of our production. Suddenly 3% -- -- -- held by production. Which is a good thing we you don't have to worry about leases expiring if you can't get around to going to prosper. Our production prior to the 310 million dying. You can see that it was -- a little bit. 55 fortified liquids -- natural gas. And then post storm. You can see we've been of 159. I've seen it up -- 180. And it's more natural gas -- historically been. WT strategy is -- -- its cash and cash returns we've operated in the Gulf of Mexico and there's a reason for them. Because of the -- and probability of the rock and Gulf of Mexico with to foreign reserves. Would normally get the cash back very quick the priority is always going to generate cash. We think about reserves -- have a more balanced approach than others we don't care how we get reserves we don't care we acquire or withdrawal of and we've been very successful -- doing -- to focus obviously is continued on the Gulf of Mexico. If you see the conventional shelf our definition of conventional shelf -- water depths up to 500 feet. The deep shelf is water depths up to 500 feet in 151000 feet in the ground. And anything deeper than 500 -- as -- move -- Tuesday war. Those definitions are not universal in our industry and but that's -- definition. We show our acquisition opportunities again we have grown throughout positioned to show you here a minute we think there's a lot of opportunities that still exist there. And obviously it which will be -- Give an update on -- hurricane. -- -- Good stuff -- -- -- on August 27. We've barely got people back channel platforms. The Hurricane Ike and the 14 September. We lost -- operated platforms as a result of Hurricane Ike. 70 the platforms that we have been working interest non operator. We're also lost and -- we lost two platforms that we have no working interest in whatsoever. But -- host of our production. About seven million a day is shut in as a result of this toppled platforms. We think about 310 million a day versus obviously it's not significant 12% of production. The reason we're not up is because of the -- pipelines and processing facilities. If you look at though we got here on the chore. Four -- pipelines. Hi how's the -- Robin you know our discovery were still shut down. On he's -- 321 we're we're dependent on both attack a line in the marathon -- on itself. That line. Is still down. We hear various things people will be -- -- two weeks or so forth in the stock was slowly coming back on. If you remember right after the storm we were like -- seven million so -- are coming back on -- slowly. Then -- hopefully get to.

And because of the changes to part through the sea floor they actually had to change -- -- went from Matt Campbell River to. And the -- like Jack just -- -- Reserves and production historic if you go back for many years couple looks the same. Will battle for -- for the third split between proved developed. -- behind pipe in proved undeveloped. We're about 51% of our production reserves or in the central gulf and about 75%. On the convention -- We had a long history of reserve growth this is over a year period you can see it's a 23% compound annual growth -- Reserves. In 2006. When we bought Kerr McGee's conventional shelf package. Billion dollar transaction. You can see that was pretty -- what their own 20062007. We didn't grow along wells. In 2000 -- when we were focused on getting. Were organized. On the Kerr McGee package Kerr McGee was the same size we will -- -- a million acres real anchors. -- trying to get your hands around an acquisition or for company divorce laws. It takes some doing. -- we expect reserves to continue to grow. In the future it's. Production growth looks very similar. You see flips and -- five and six those -- related to hurricanes Katrina and Rita. But you could see it's basically up into the right. If you look at 2008. We were clicking along at about 31 -- a quarter. Our current guidance had been authority 31 piece for the -- quarter and see it turned out to be almost twenty. And again that as a result of hurricanes August off him like. The guidance for the fourth quarter is the -- 12129. To 156. Units of production this year. Looks like it'll be less than 2000 self and once we have something dramatic happen between now on him here. Acquisitions. This is a strategy that we have that's worked ever single time. If it meets these four criteria it's it's usually going to be a winner looking for cash flow. We're looking for -- ability all of our positions have been bank finance. In banks -- historically. Pretty conservative I'll help Poland and doing an acquisition so the banks to finance -- that's usually a pretty good so I'm. The other two things to me kind of go hand in hand is prospect civilian -- as -- -- about the Kerr McGee acquisition. Kerr McGee had a lot of acreage that they continue to -- but they were trolling. So you have crossed activity and I think about as neglect because if you have overlooked assets old world. Minimal capital which they have done very -- -- that we're just keeping these properties going. It creates opportunities for us and this -- kind of things look for over the years and stuff that we've been successful core. To look at the middle part of this table. It shows you -- the acquisitions that we've gone from 99 to 2000 and February of 2002. From hostile to ConocoPhillips. -- you can see that walk 343 b.s. Several years later we're still -- 270 duties and the reason that is is because probable and possible to come until the world war. Ability to acquire exploit properties we drove 93 wells and these properties. And done cumulative production through that time frame is almost half -- So again ability to acquire export these properties and then you could see Kerr McGee in the purchase transaction and turning those oil reserves and the dollars we've spent a 188 million almost transactions part of Kerr McGee. They've generated a billion to in cash and this is after transaction cost him the capital moments. It's a 1000000000 into the -- morning. And still have PV ten point -- billion rubles billions. You can see would -- drove 93 exploration and mobile wells. And at the end of 2007 was almost. Billion dollars problem calls -- there. If we look at Kerr McGee. We -- again. Through the end of 2007 and only drove -- rules. So you go properly size its biggest company was before we -- -- was acquisitions were you drove -- through walls. On these properties and only drove -- well obviously you've got busy on them 2008. There's a lot of prospects look to -- draw -- -- -- -- say we spent a billion dollars and uncle McGee. It's generated about 750 million cash minus capital expenditures so we've got a net cash flow to us about four and five million of you period. Was still on PB two and so a lot to do out here if you -- prospect of drilling ever view we've been sixteen for twenty this year so forward and the expiration slide -- -- -- -- on the development side. But if you look over a period of almost nine years you can see the development successes might want -- -- And on the exploration -- -- 79%. And again several long period of time the other thing about this chart is if you look at those little green. -- those little green arrows. What that this signifies is that from the time we do an acquisition -- the time where drilling is a Texas couple years. And it's you know look at it seismic look at it how do you get organized. And on the -- -- that's been true as well again go from drove twelve rules from October 6 through -- -- -- Drawn to -- twenty plus -- in 2000. Broken out a different way. On the conventional shelf 84% success rate again this is almost everyone I -- period. Our success and -- war 57%. Which is pretty typical of the industry. Seismic. One of the things that we're not afraid to do is spend money on seismic target farmers are without spending money on seismic we don't do -- oral -- -- -- We have a very large database of seismic. What strategy code PG it's a C and others you can see we spent seven million dollars in seismic just in the last three years. We've got access to this library. We get interest and and particularly it would go out and you -- processing. You can see it it's -- -- 349 for instance and Italian bank intends. Talk about -- -- -- 349. We slowly have acquired an interest in this and -- -- workforce 2000 they were now 100%. We bought patches interest we went -- 59200%. On January 1 2000. Sixty -- is effectively what we ended up with that a 117. Million dollars. So we got that was a nice deal for us it's 83%. Of the reserves -- -- world war. She optional 349. Is the first commercially successful sub salt don't -- and Gulf of Mexico. He was this particular field that change people's views of the Gulf of Mexico. This was the first sub -- Now yields read some stuff and people start talking about pretty small and Tracy I -- that depends on if you're looking down -- -- salt if you're looking from the bottom up its results depends on. On your point of view. We refer to and -- sub salt. People believed before. This was drilled that there were no hydrocarbons -- -- And what they found out was up assault later actually activist I and overburdened being. It's got like if you walk in the doorway what holds up the structural problems. Is the being. And what they found was that -- -- -- through this -- -- the pressure to court and when the pressure declined it'll the root servers that were found to be bigger. And if there were bigger and under less pressure they found -- war. You know and it's it was this particular field change people's view and that's why you've seen people go out drilling deeper and deeper water because of overblown or who lost. And anyway this is this is our largest feel. And we've done a lot of work out there we go along with the fact if you look at those. The a twelve well to the -- It is in process. Would next year. We're also gonna drill we think we need the deep well maybe the 24 point 5000 foot range. We're still in the process of design and development and always things when you drove it deep there's obviously -- -- to consider. The end of the others in the world so as we speak which you concede that this this particular field was produced. 120 million barrels of world and fortified piece of America so it's it's been very prolific. And again just keep on going down people and the size pictures and there's there's more more prospect of -- Green -- 646 -- open. This is what we're -- one -- developments on this as well drilled several years ago you see we have 24 -- proved -- again book several years ago. This is at 4200 feet water. It is well then again -- -- -- some time ago we -- sanctioned -- this year we've now done the completion out there of the world. The subsidy trees with the locals and all that stuff is and what we expect to have that own production second. Next year I'm hoping -- be done sooner than that. But this ought to be -- nice nice well force. Which takes time and in this deep water development is coming to an agreement with somebody to host the production and we were able to -- deal with. With Murphy from -- and that's where production -- ago. Another deep water play his steely green canyon 82 we've drilled three wells out there. And we drilled well -- from work towards the end of those seven we continued on into 2008. Didn't book any additional reserves were found -- moral probably isn't possible soccer fact we found. Four additional prospects -- of -- would be of drilling won't before. We're in the process of doing so a lot of 2000 they doing feet and flow analysis and -- insurance. To try to figure out what is the best way to develop this field. You can see a couple of options under review -- the EPS which is an early production system. And then he subsidy type accidents that you demonstrable. Couple of these other places. Well a lot of work still have to do morning -- 2008 drawing program. -- I had this chart to have a bunch of bubbles and we've drilled so many wells this year was better put it and and type in -- format against sixteen of twenty on the extortion side. Two of two on the development side. And you can see that. Lot of things that we focus on 2008. Drawn our infrastructure so that if you did find something you -- get an on line very quickly. And you can see a lot of that stuff in fact was drilled and is on line. There's other stuff you can see that to be completed and -- online this year. The only one that's on the list right there of the not on line this year is the Ohio and 8376 world. She should be at -- -- time for schools 2000. But that gives you the rest of the drawing program which is forty -- for this year. This is -- cartoon we showed Gulf of Mexico production is a little bit different than what you see -- We don't drill delineation wells in the Gulf of Mexico it's just too expensive. And so what you end up from the Gulf of Mexico is trying to -- well in an -- take point. Without consideration of what the rivers are -- be booked and SEC definition. What happens in this particular case we're allowed to book between those two middle green lines. Through the -- -- down lowest known contact. But depending on the drive mechanism in this particular case we're short water contact down below. Depending on the drive mechanism you'll be able produced a probable as possible for this from the -- war. Without drilling additional well doesn't look pretty good it doesn't look very good all approved. Proved -- places and let me show -- real life example of exactly and talk about. This is Mississippi canyon 718 Pluto well if you look at the -- Pink or orange depending on your point of view right -- down of that first green lines per -- You can see from the pressures down those are actually. This is -- -- Trace. And these lines coming out of that's actually trough coming back the other way so you know although -- eagle Trace down there all the way down that second green line. Or the problem -- and cost us. We're -- what happened on the small. This is a top down view looking at the bright spot where the well or came in contact with the bright -- You can see the first white line without most wireline against the proved reserves. And second while line gives you the problems and possible look what's happened. The -- -- -- it was initially droll and book was only two point nine these -- -- you -- the cumulative productions and tonight. So again and you end up with positive revisions but from a proved -- standpoint in the Gulf of Mexico you get a little bit different picture. What you -- issue. From financial -- our capital expenditure program -- -- 611 million you can see the split between exploration and development. We also spent on it again 170 million -- patches interest and social through -- -- -- -- And obviously all of this will be funded with internally generated cash. This slide is different than what shall see in most companies because -- historically been able to draw within cash. And you haven't seen that in any of the -- resources ways. And in most other companies are not been able to draw the cash for -- because the Gulf of Mexico if you find something that comes back after -- quick. You've got reinvestment risk and this is what you need to be able do is to again. Quark -- workers are we've been doing -- -- -- -- very good again or exploring reserves. If you look at 2008. Those kind of funny showed there. 862 -- cash for nine months we'll -- all of the capital for the whole year. This is another slide that saw a little bit different even don't margins. Are you -- -- have been 75 to 80% for as long as we -- to go back and do this computation. And it's regardless realized prices if you look at 2002 the realized price was three dollars and fifty cents. If you go look at 2000 they realized prices thirteen dollars and 56 cents but the markings about the side. And again it's cash flow it's keeping costs under control -- and you end up with this kind of situation which it's just fantastic. -- commodity hedging. Doesn't she probably had the fewest -- of anybody on 2008. All of this part of forty dollar reprisal that we took advantage of -- out. These are the positions that we have left on everything as far as the and 2008 we have nothing went through 2000. Liquidity. Reorient a prime position here we had -- -- 500 million dollars of cash in November 4. We had a 500 million undrawn revolver that was reform by the banks on October 24. So we've got an enormous -- liquidity. We -- a couple special dividends. We paid thirty million -- -- special -- beginning of 2008.

The Icarus Line is an American hard rock band from Los Angeles, California. The Icarus Line was formed out of the ashes of high school punk group Kanker Sores. Tragedy struck the band in 1997, when Tim Childs, drummer and close friend, was killed in a car crash shortly after recording their Pivot EP as Kanker Sores on Recess Records, and also songs for an aborted split 7â[] with Treadwell. The last show Kanker Sores played together was at the Che Café in San Diego, with Jenny Piccalo and The Locust. In 1998 The Icarus Line formed with Joe Cardamone on vocals, Lance Arnao on bass, Aaron North on guitar, and Aaron Austin on drums. Almost straight away they toured the East Coast with Ink & Dagger. Their first show ever was in New Jersey at The Melody Bar. For this first tour, they sold their demo tape containing the four Kanker Sores songs initially recorded for the Treadwell split. Soon after this they released their first EP, Highlypuncturingnoisetestingyourabilitytohate on Hellcat records. All these songs were also Kanker Sores songs. 1998 also saw the release of the Red And Black Attack EP on the New American Dream label.

David Berlin left his home to serve as a physician assistant with the Navy. Now, 405 days later, he is home, and St. John's School surprised him last Friday with a patriotic welcome.
The lieutenant thought he was visiting the school to talk to a class about his time serving in Afghanistan. But several of his wife's friends had planned a full-blown assembly to honor Berlin and servicemen like him.
"This school's been so great with my kids," he said, adding that their happiness added a layer of comfort to his deployment.
Berlin, who lives in California with his wife and three children, signed up for service five days before he turned 42, the age when he would have been ineligible to join the active military. He had worked in a private practice for 18 years in western Pennsylvania. After his enlistment he was assigned to Patuxent River Naval Air Station in 2010. The rest of his family moved to St. Mary's in 2011.
Berlin knew that physician assistants are likely to be deployed, and that there would be a good chance he could end up in Iraq or Afghanistan.
"I'd always thought about going into the military," he said, adding that his father was in the Navy.
He shipped out to western Afghanistan last winter.
"A lot was going on" and it was not always a safe situation, he said.
He said that there were times he felt generally comfortable and relatively safe, but all too often bombs and gunshots going on around where he was stationed offered grim reminders of war.
"You see death and trauma and pain," he said. He performed surgeries and other advanced medical procedures, often on Afghan military.
"My role is to work with the Afghan medical people in the community" and help them establish their infrastructure, he said.
After leaving his family Oct. 2, 2011, for several months of training for his overseas assignment, Berlin said goodbye to his wife and children and shipped out to Afghanistan in February. He arrived home Nov. 13.
"We were worried sometimes," his son, Jason Berlin, who is a freshman at St. Mary's Ryken High School, said. "We were just wishing he would come home."
The lieutenant's wife, Cindy Berlin, chatted with him by video conference every couple of days. Because of the time difference, the three children — Jason along with siblings Brooke and Ben, who go to St. John's School — were able to video chat with their father on most weekends. "He was really happy to talk to us. He said it was the best time when he was there," Jason said.
Family friend Beth Cooper came up with the idea to surprise David Berlin at the school last week.
"As soon as I mentioned it, everybody said, 'Let's do it,'" Cooper said. They decked out the school's gymnasium with patriotic ballons and banners and the students practiced a few songs in Berlin's honor.
Cooper, a Navy veteran, said that the acknowledgment not only helps those who served, but it also helps the children because they are able to see servicemen or women in person.
"This is pretty powerful," David Berlin said of the students' welcome.
Berlin is halfway through his six-year commitment to the Navy, he said. He and his family are scheduled to spend the remaining three years, starting in July, stationed in Italy.

Mission Type: Orbiter
Launch Vehicle: N1 (no. 15003)
Launch Site: NIIP-5 / launch site 110P
Spacecraft Mass: 6900 kg
Spacecraft Instruments: Unknown
Deep Space Chronicle: A Chronology of Deep Space and Planetary Probes 1958-2000, Monographs in Aerospace History No. 24, by Asif A. Siddiqi
This was the first attempted launch of the giant N1 booster as part of early test operations in the Soviet piloted lunar landing program. N1 development began in 1962 after two years of initial R&D on heavy booster designs. Although the first launch had been originally planned for 1965, a major redesign of the booster in 1964 and financial and organizational difficulties delayed the launch by four years.
On this first launch, the N1 carried a basic 7K-L1 spacecraft (openly known as Zond) modified for operations in lunar orbit (rather than for circumlunar flight). Known as the 7K-L1S, the spacecraft was equipped with an Engine Orientation Complex (DOK) for attitude control in lunar orbit. During the launch, two first-stage engines initially shut down, but the remainder of the engines operated until T+70 seconds when the control system shut them down. The booster crashed about 50 kilometers from the launch site, and the payload successfully used its launch-escape system to descend without problem 32 to 35 kilometers from the pad.
Investigators believed that booster failed when a pipe for measuring fuel pressure broke at T+23.3 seconds, setting in motion a sequence of events that led to a huge fire at T+54.5 seconds in the tail of the first stage. The fire short-circuited the control system and shut down all the engines at approximately T+70 seconds.

One man rose from poverty in Mexico to create distinctive looks for the likes of Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley.
Another wrote 24 of his own No. 1 songs, rivaled only by Merle Haggard and John Lennon and Paul McCartney.
Yet another is synonymous with the electric guitar.
Now, they have something in common: Manuel Cuevas, Alan Jackson and Les Paul — along with Dan Miller, Bobby Jones, Dottie Rambo and Kix Brooks — were inducted into the Music City Walk of Fame on Sunday.
Each was honored with a star on the sidewalk, not unlike those on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The seven join 51 others who have made lasting contributions to Music City, their stars making up Nashville's Music Mile at Walk of Fame Park on Demonbreun Street between Fourth and Fifth avenues.

Aksel Lund Svindal attacked the Lake Louise Downhill course to win the opening downhill of the new season. Svindal, who had been fastest in the last training run and starting last of the top seeds for the race, had a feeling in the start that the race was there for the taking: "Conditions were changing, when at the start you cannot ignore what goes on in the finish area, everyone is talking about the results. I was not sure I could win starting towards the back, but I heard Erik Guay did well, starting just before me and I knew it was possible. I heard no one was able to beat Franz, but Erik did well and I knew I would have to attack all the way if I wanted to win." In the end young Austrian Max Franz held on for the win with Klaus Kroell and Marco Sullivan shared third place with Tobias Stechert coming from outside the top 30 to place fifth.
"Every victory feels very good," Aksel said after the race, "But at the beginning of the season, to be at the top in all training runs and then win the race is a great sign. I have won three SG here but never a DH so this is great. It proves that what I worked on this summer was good."
Svindal was in devastating form on his HEAD skis at the top of the course, carving out a lead and extending it at each check point. A wide turn coming into the waterfall section and then a wiggle of the skis on the run in to the finish may have given Franz who was waiting in the finish hope but by the time Svindal crossed the line, the lead was emphatic – over half a second!
As Svindal got reacquainted with the leaders enclosure in the finish, he had a moment of worry as his fellow HEAD World Cup Rebel and Norwegian teammate, Kjetil Jansrud started posting fastest split times at the top of the course. Jansrud, who won last season in Kvitfjell, crossed the line to take 9th place at the end of the race just in front of Johan Clary in tenth, making it five HEAD racers in the top ten.
For Stechert this was his best World Cup result and helps in his quest to qualify for the World Championships: "I have been skiing well in training but did not think I would be so high up the results in the finish," explained the German afterwards.
This was Svindal's sixth downhill win and the third time he has won in Lake Louise, all three other wins have been in the Super G.

Good luck with that Mo.I like him but he isn't a traditional point guard.He is a scoring guard and that worked well in Cleveland because Lebron was handling the ball.Don't really know any team that would want Mo as their starting point guard,but a lot of teams would sign him as a back up.
He isn't nearly good enough to warrant such demands. He is gone.
All that woofin' n' whining has gotten him NOWHERE!!
Mo, you are not going to be the players you always thought. AI did the same thing and look where he's at. China. Have fun in the international.

Machine to Machine communication (m2m)
General Information
Machine to machine communication (m2m) is the term that identifies the space enveloping the collection of devices, services and the value chain required to allow the interconnection of electronic apparatus, typically but not always wirelessly. Another characteristic of m2m communication is that this interconnection enables primarily automated communication between distant, remote machines and one or more layers of central management applications. It provides for real-time monitoring and control without the need for human intervention.
In the wireless m2m space, there are two major classes of interconnections: short range and wide area. The predominant wide area technology applies embedded cellular modules to connect remote devices to the internet or application servers. Think of embedded cellular modules as cell phones for machines or cell phones without the display and keyboard. A cellular module includes many of the same features that you would find in a cellular handset, including voice and data communication, and is ideal for embedded applications.
As with cellular phones, cellular modules require a subscription service. But beyond that, modules require a great deal of other services all of which add value to the ability to have and connect remotely to the end device. For example, services providing real-time information on where devices are, their network coverage, and diagnostics. Or ways to quickly troubleshoot most common issues. Services allowing you to set alerts and limits to contain overages and eliminate unwelcome surprises for total cost control.
Short range is not too dissimilar from wide area. It applies embedded short range wireless modules in a wide range of protocols and frequencies according to application type and regional spectrum regulatory constraints. These modules operate in the license-free ISM frequency, typically in the bands of 169, 433, 868, 915 MHz, and 2.4 GHz. They are available in standard air-interface protocols such as wireless M-Bus and ZigBee as well as other proprietary technologies.
Cellular and short range modules connect with an application using AT commands or RIL drivers, typically through a UART or USB connection.
The figure above shows how an m2m application works to connect home utility meters, allowing them to communicate automatically to the various utility consumer billing systems. Information from the meters goes over short range communication, through a hub which bridges the local connection to the cellular network and to the central management system. All arrows point both ways indicating that in this typical m2m application the central management system can poll individual meters.
Not strictly a part of m2m, positioning is wireless m2m's closest companion technology. That follows from the fact that a very large portion of all cellular m2m applications are mobile; and knowing the location of a moving device is typically job one for the m2m connected system.
Global positioning started out as a functionality delivered by a receiver which calculated global position coordinates by analyzing signals received from a certain number of positioning satellites in low earth orbit (LEO). The original provider and still one of the most popular is the American Global Positioning System, or GPS.

Vacant buildings an issue in McKeesport
Thursday, December 01, 2011
By Jonathan Barnes
They look like large gaps in an otherwise bright smile -- vacant houses and buildings that once were part of a vibrant, industrial McKeesport but now draw trash, vermin and the anger of neighbors.
The question of what to do with these empty buildings looms large, and the topic is broached at nearly every city council meeting.
Although the city demolishes some buildings every year, no real consensus has been reached on what to do about the problem in the long term. Sometimes, the subject is raised by residents pleading with city officials to demolish a vacant building next to their home. Other times, city officials bring up the subject.
Fire Chief Kevin Lust said at council's Nov. 16 meeting that firefighters have been at such vacant homes, working hard to put out a fire, while residents watched and yelled, "Let it burn down!"
Some residents have asked Chief Lust and others in the fire department if such vacant houses and buildings could be burned, but the chief shuddered at that suggestion. "Yes, the vacant buildings are a fire hazard," he acknowledged, but he told council, "A controlled burn is out of the question. There is no such thing as a controlled burn, under my direction."
"The problem is that the system hasn't been working," Councilman Darryl Segina said. "We haven't been doing the job to save these structures before we have to tear them down. We've got to start cleaning them up -- the market value of the whole city has gone down."
Council Vice President Fawn Walker-Montgomery said several houses on Butler Street need to be torn down. The city should have a written process to place vacant buildings on a demolition list, she said. "There should be some kind of citizen involvement," she added.
Council President and Mayor-elect Michael Cherepko said in the future he would include all city council members in the process as well as city officials who currently are involved in the demolition selection.
After the meeting, Mc-Keesport controller Ray Malinchak said two problems occur with demolition -- the cost and opposition from owners. Some buildings can cost $35,000 or more to demolish, he noted, and some owners of the structures stop the city from tearing down the buildings.

iF PA. IS SMART THEY WILL VOTE FOR JOE..
The Average Canadian is Now Richer than the Average American
Watch out, Americans: Your thrifty, socialist neighbors to the north have stealthily become richer than you. Because of the Bush Tax Cuts. That George W. Bush gave the Richest 1% of the USA. and he gave 20% for a corps to leave the USA and then that corps can take a tax cut on travel to and from any foreign nation.
Over the past five years, the average net worth of Canadian households has exceeded that of American households. So for the the first time in history, Canadians are wealthier than Americans by more than $40,000, on average. In 2011, the average net worth of a Canadian household was $363,202, compared to $319,970 in the U.S., according to Environics Analytics WealthScapes data published in the Globe and Mail.(Average net worth measures the total combined value of a households liquid and real estate assets, minus debt.)
(MORE: Ten Things That Cost More Outside the U.S.)
The figure takes into account the relative weakness of the U.S. economy right now, as well as the recent strength of the Canadian dollar, which is now almost on par with the U.S. dollar, the Globe and Mail points out. These figures also ignore public-sector debt, which accounts for a higher proportion of GDP in the U.S than in Canada. And according to the latest jobs numbers, Canadas unemployment rate fell to 7.2%, while the United States remained stagnant at 8.2%.
(MORE: Canada to Ban Visas for Foreign Strippers)
The major reasons for Canadas economic triumph over its neighbor to the south, it seems, are rooted in the 2008 recession that rocked the United States economy and collapsed its housing market. American house prices plunged, and now Canadian real estate holds more value. And thats not even taking into account the recent spike in Justin Bieber-inspired tourism.

A Great Day at Great Falls!
My friends at St. Andrew's Episcopal School in Potomac, MD planned a National Kids to Parks Day field trip to Great Falls National Park. They had to reschedule due to flooding in the park but had a perfect, mild day in early June. Here's what they had to say about their trip.
"Kindergarten through third grade students gathered outside the Great Falls Visitor Center to hear from Park Ranger Fox. She shared the history of the canal, dating back to George Washington, and the importance of maintaining the river frontage and towpath.
The ranger encouraged the students to look carefully for great blue herons, skinks, and snakes as they walked to the falls overlook. Our group took a short hike to the actual falls, seeing several blue herons fishing and finding a toad near the canal and a turtle basking in the sun. The view of the waterfall was spectacular, and many children proclaimed that they wanted to return with their families!
Thank you, Buddy Bison, for promoting a Kids to Parks Day; St. Andrew's loved it!"
Buddy Bison Blazes New Trails at St. Andrew's
St. Andrew's Episcopal School (MD) enthusiastically launched the Buddy Bison Program in February! The Lower School students (age 2 through 3rd grade) enjoyed a puppet show by the Blue Sky Puppet Theatre about taking care of our earth. We learned songs about conserving water and how important it is to use less electricity. Everyone can be a partner for our planet.
Buddy Bison himself joined the students after the show. The preschoolers came forward for hugs, and the elementary students gave Buddy high fives. Buddy knows a lot about being outdoors and encouraged the children to spend more time outside. Buddy then roamed the halls and playground, posing for photos and handing out his stickers, and reminding kids to get outdoors and explore.
Each classroom now has its own soft pint-sized Buddy Bison mascot and backpack with a journal. Buddy has already visited a number of Lower School families on the weekends, and has traveled to playgrounds, backyards, and skiing in Pennsylvania! St. Andrew's Lower School is proud to be a new member of the Buddy Bison community.
Welcome St. Andrew's!

Waste Site Cleanup & Reuse in New England
New Community Brings the Elderly and Foster Children Together, Keeping "Boston's Hope" High
Boston's Hope Project Cleans Up 22 Properties to Make Way for Quality Housing using EPA Brownfields Funding and a Tax Incentive Program
Success in the EPA Targeted Brownfields Assessment Grant Program
Dorchester, MA
(April 5, 2004)
The face of one Boston's neighborhood is forever changed. Where trash and weeds once littered the ground, landscaped yards and beautiful apartments now stand. Young children run across green lawns to visit their new foster grandparents who are always just a block away. The neighborhood that was once home to 23 abandoned or demolished buildings is now home to young children, their new foster families, and their new "grandparents." This revolutionary intergenerational neighborhood is called Boston's Hope and its $31 million transformation was made possible in part by a US EPA Targeted Brownfields Assessment grant, a federal brownfields tax deduction program, and a partnership between the Home for Little Wanders, a social service agency for families and children and the Boston Aging Concerns Young & Old United, Inc. (BAC-YOU) an organization that finds housing for a growing number of homeless seniors.
The properties that make up the new Boston Hope neighborhood are spread across the northern section of Franklin Field in Dorchester. Historically, the properties were residential buildings built between 1967 and 1985. The properties were abandoned and destroyed when the city of Boston acquired them in the 1990s. Only a single-family dwelling at 219 Harvard Street built circa 1900 was left, boarded up and charred following an earlier interior fire. The undeveloped plots were purchased from the city by BAC-YOU in 1999 following an environmental site assessment on all the properties.
The site assessment was made possible due to a US EPA Targeted Brownfields Assessment grant of $105,000. With this grant, the city and BAC-YOU were able to afford the costly task of evaluating environmental contamination within the site and determining what the cost of cleanup would be.
The EPA site assessment activities, which were completed in December 2001, revealed that the over 90,000 square feet of unutilized property contained a fuel oil above ground storage tank, soil contamination including the presence of lead, and multiple sites with solid wastes including tires, abandoned cars and other trash. Armed with the site assessment information, the city and BAC-YOU were able to begin the long road to site cleanup.
Final cleanup costs for the new Boston's Hope project total approximately $293,000 to date. Through the Federal Brownfields Tax Incentive Program, BAC-YOU, the developer for the project, will be able to deduct any expenses that they incurred during the cleanup from their income taxes. This important program helped the organization reach the Massachusetts residential cleanup standards needed to prepare the once contaminated properties for residential redevelopment.
Today, the project is in its final stages of construction with a planned opening date of April 1, 2004. The project will encompasses 41 new and affordable apartments. The apartments will be home to 30 seniors, 10 families and their foster children between the ages of 6 and 12. The center will contain computers, games, and large meeting areas to allow for group dinners and meetings between foster families and their new grandparents.
Having the seniors and foster children together offers members of the revolutionary Boston's Hope a sense of community and gives the once neglected children the opportunity to experience life in an extended family situation, complete with the love and mentoring of foster grandparents. The Boston's Hope neighborhood gives foster children and their willing, but low-income guardians and foster grandparents, a new sense of community, quality and affordable housing, and the opportunity to develop familial relationships that will last a life time. This important new community will open its doors on June 2, 2004 with a ribbon cutting ceremony.

I usually wear a 10, but all the reviews said the shoe runs large so I bought a 9.5. Nope! Wrong! I spend the money on the expedited shipping only to have to return them because they're too big. They are cute, but I'll probably put something in them to level off the incline to keep my toe from hitting the front toe box. They look cute, and as a true Hip Hop female it's a must for my closet. ... read more

This is the first time I bought a shoe with inside heel and it is so comfort! I feel like I am just wearing a normal flat shoe when I am standing. Only problem is my foot keep sliding to the front of the shoe while I am walking, which is a little bit hard for a long walk. Other than that, everything else is perfect! ... read more
They look cute and can go with many types of outfit as short, jeans, and dress but definitely you can't wear them for sport or all day. They are little heavy, so your legs will get tired soon. However, I still like them. I can wear them sometime. ... read more
