In case you don't know Cleland's work, she is the author of the Josie Prescott Antiques Mysteries, a traditional 'cozy' mystery series set in New Hampshire in which antiques appraiser Josie Prescott is the sleuth. She also writes short stories, 'noir' plays, and a number of other genres of fiction and non-fiction. Below are the links to the Antiques Mysteries in our collection, and we hope to see you July 1st!

Via our partnership with the Lone Star College System and its partnerships with The Academy and Target Hunger, the LSC-Tomball Community Library is collecting canned and non-perishable foods through the first half of June. Many area residents rely on nutritional assistance from organizations like Target Hunger. Through the summer the need is greater because more than 20% of school children go without the free or reduced priced breakfasts and lunches available at school. Help us help our community's hungry. You can put your donated items into the collection barrels by the library elevators and in the Children's Department. Thanks for anything you can do.

Dune Energy Reports First Quarter 2013 Financial And Operating Results PR Newswire HOUSTON, May 13, 2013 HOUSTON, May 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --Dune Energy, Inc. (OTCBB:DUNR) today announced results for the first quarter of calendar year 2013. Revenue and Production Oil and gas revenue for the first quarter of 2013 totaled $12.1 million as compared with $13.4 million for the first quarter of 2012. Production volumes in the first quarter were 162 Mboe with 60% of this production being oil. This compares with 229 Mboe for the first quarter of 2012 with a 43% oil cut. In the first quarter of 2013, the average sales price per barrel of oil was $110.04 and $3.71 per Mcf for natural gas, as compared with $110.73 per BO and $3.12 per Mcf, respectively for the first quarter of 2012. Oil prices decreased 1% and gas prices increased 19% from 2012 levels. During the first quarter of 2013 oil revenue accounted for 88% of the total production revenue. Additionally, the Company had other revenue of $1.0 million consisting of the sale of emission credits in the first quarter of 2013. Although the first quarter production volumes were low compared to a year ago, our investment in Garden Island Bay projects resulted in production increases throughout the quarter. January production averaged 1,393 BOe/day and March production averaged 2,400 BOe/day. We will see the full impact of our investment in the Leeville field in the second quarter. However, the increase will be partially offset by shut in production at Garden Island Bay for field maintenance. Costs and Expenses Total lease operating expense was $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2013 as compared to $6.2 million for the first quarter of 2012, or $42.30 and $26.88 per BOe produced, respectively. This increase on a BOe basis was reflective of lower production volumes in 2013 in our older fields with high fixed expenses. DD&A expense was $3.2 million for the first quarter of 2013, or $19.56 per BOe. Total January and February volumes were also negatively impacted by some third party pipeline repairs over and above normal declines. G&A expense totaled $2.6 million for the first quarter of 2013 compared to $3.1 million in the first quarter of 2012. This includes $0.6 million and $0.7 million non-cash stock based compensation in the first quarter of 2013 and first quarter of 2012. Interest and financing did not fluctuate between quarters, remaining at $2.4 million. Earnings Net loss totaled $3.2 million for the first quarter of 2013. This compares with a $3.6 million loss in 2012. Liquidity and Credit Agreements At the end of the quarter we had $12.2 million in cash and $20 million available under our Sr. Credit Facility based on $50 million of availability. Subsequent to the end of the quarter we signed a second amendment to our credit facility amending the total Debt/EBITDAX covenant ratio to 5.0 times from 4.0 times for the first quarter of 2013 and to 4.5 times from 4.0 times for the second quarter of 2013. It returns to 4.0 times in the third quarter of 2013 and beyond. Additionally, on May 8, 2013 our major shareholders funded a second draw of $10 million on our $50 million equity financing of December 21, 2012. We have now drawn $40 million of the $50 million facility. 2013 Operations Summary and Capital Program Since our last operations update of March 8, 2013, we have completed the six well shallow drilling program at our Leeville field. Five of the six wells were successful and will result in seven completions, as two wells are dual completions. The final well, the LL&E #340 ST #1, was drilled to 8,867 feet and is to be completed in the 95E sand. The zone has approximately 130 feet of hydrocarbon pay by log and core analysis. Initial production is anticipated soon with expected rates of 120 to 140 BOe/day net to the Company's 40% working interest. The initial six completions have all come on production over the last month and gross production from over the past week has averaged approximately 6.5 MMCF/day and 1,100 BO/day or over 2,200 BOe/day. The Company's net interest in this production is over 650 BOe/day. One additional workover is scheduled to come online in the next several days with an anticipated gross rates of 1.5 MMCF/day and 30 BO/day or 280 BOe/day, which will be approximately 80 BOe/day net to the company. We anticipate that when all wells are producing, Dune will net between 750-850 BOe/day from the new completions. The SL 20783 #1 is drilling below 16,600 feet with a target depth of 20,625 feet. With the infusion of new equity capital, we anticipate spudding the Wieting #31 well at Chocolate Bayou in June and will also look to commencing new drilling activity in Garden Island Bay and Live Oak Fields in the summer. We provide a monthly update to operations on our website www.duneenergy.com. James A. Watt, President and CEO of the company stated, "Once again we have shown that as we invest capital in our assets, they respond with increased production volumes. We will continue judiciously investing in our property base as capital availability permits."

I'm looking for suggestions for a PHP:
- calendar control/widget that I can embed on a web page to enable users to select dates. A datepicker.
- calendar software that will provide weekly calendar view, similar to what Microsoft Outlook provides. It should display days of the week in columns and rows representing timeslots. Each cell would display events that occur on a day/timeslot
I'm not looking for one piece of software that does both. It doesn't have to be fancy or full featured. I need something basic for a little project. It would be great if the software DIDN'T rely on a database or if it does, it can support Oracle.

At one point a couple of years ago, I received an unexpected delivery from Amazon, containing a bottle of PreSeed Fertility-Friendly Lubricant. This surprised both me and my fiancee, as I hadn't ordered it, nor would I order something like this, as my fiancee and I are deliberately not trying to conceive a child. (For one thing, she has DVT and is on Coumadin; a pregnancy would be potentially life-threatening for her.)
Checking my Amazon order history, I found no reference to any such order, nor did I find any reference to the order number on the invoice. I E-mailed their customer support, asking how I could return this item, since I hadn't ordered it and didn't want to be charged for it. They replied, saying that the shipment was in error, I had not been charged, and due to the nature of the item, they couldn't accept returns on it.
I wound up offering it to my Facebook friends, and shipping it to a friend in Illinois that spoke up first to claim it. She didn't say why she wanted it and I didn't ask.
Remember, everyone in charge of the police and prosecutors is either a political appointee or a directly-elected official (in the case of county sheriffs), and they all love to appear "tough on crime" for the voters, and they tend to look out for "their own." They've probably also taken this quote to heart:
"Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with."
- Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged (1957)
When Ken is saying, "Either tell the 100% complete truth or SHUT UP," one must also keep in mind that almost nobody is capable of telling the 100% complete truth to investigators. As he has shown, even something as small as a detail you misremembered or misspoke about can be turned into an instant felony...and that additional charge, your lawyer will tell you, can make your actual case against any other charges that much more difficult to defend. (See also)
Bear in mind that Ken is now a federal defense attorney, and he has both personally seen this tactic in operation, and had colleagues report it to him.
The lesson — other than that criminal justice often has little to do with actual justice — is this: for God's sake shut up. Law enforcement agents seeking to interview you are not your friends. You cannot count on "just clearing this one thing up." Demand to talk to a lawyer before talking to the cops. Every time.
Never trust an operating system.

Influence of deep breathing exercise on spontaneous respiratory rate and heart rate variability: A randomised controlled trial in healthy subjects
Department of Physiology, Christian Medical College, Vellore, Tamil Nadu - 632 002, India.Indian journal of physiology and pharmacology 11/2011; 56(1):80-7.
Source: PubMed
Studies show that yogic type of breathing exercises reduces the spontaneous respiratory rate. However, there are no conclusive studies on the effects of breathing exercise on heart rate variability. We investigated the effects of non-yogic breathing exercise on respiratory rate and heart rate variability. Healthy subjects (21-33 years, both genders) were randomized into the intervention group (n=18), which performed daily deep breathing exercise at 6 breaths/min (0.1 Hz) for one month, and a control group (n=18) which did not perform any breathing exercise. Baseline respiratory rate and short-term heart rate variability indices were assessed in both groups. Reassessment was done after one month and the change in the parameters from baseline was computed for each group. Comparison of the absolute changes [median (inter-quartile ranges)] of the parameters between the intervention and control group showed a significant difference in the spontaneous respiratory rate [intervention group -2.50 (-4.00, -1.00), control group 0.00 (-1.00, 1.00), cycles/min, P<0.001], mean arterial pressure [intervention group -0.67 (-6.67, 1.33), control group 0.67 (0.00, 6.67), mmHg, (P<0.05)], high frequency power [intervention group 278.50 (17.00, 496.00), control group -1.00 (-341.00, 196.00), ms2 P<0.05] and sum of low and high frequency powers [intervention group 512.00 (-73.00, 999.00), control group 51.00 (-449.00, 324.00), ms2, P<0.05]. Neither the mean of the RR intervals nor the parameters reflecting sympatho-vagal balance were significantly different across the groups. In conclusion, the changes produced by simple deep slow breathing exercise in the respiratory rate and cardiac autonomic modulation of the intervention group were significant, when compared to the changes in the control group. Thus practice of deep slow breathing exercise improves heart rate variability in healthy subjects, without altering their cardiac autonomic balance. These findings have implications in the use of deep breathing exercises to improve cardiac autonomic control in subjects known to have reduced heart rate variability.

ABSTRACT: A minority of individuals will continue to experience debilitating symptoms for more than several months after sustaining a concussion. These problems may have multiple causes, including persistence of the original concussion symptoms, but they also may be due to factors such as depression and anxiety, physical problems, and psychological issues (including coping with an adverse insurance and legal system). This article reviews the differential diagnosis and treatment strategies for patients with chronic symptoms that persist after a concussion.The Psychiatric clinics of North America 03/2014; 37(1):91-102.

Article: Can yoga practices benefit health by improving organism regulation? Evidence from electrodermal measures of acupuncture meridians[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Objectives: To document and explain Yoga's effects on acupuncture meridian energies. To understand mechanisms behind Yoga's efficacy by testing links between yoga and traditional Chinese medicine. Materials and Methods: The study compared two groups of yoga practitioners: Novice and experienced. Novices consisted of 33 volunteers from a Swami Vivekananda Yoga Anusandhana Samsthana (S-VYASA) yoga instructor training module and the experienced practitioners were 20 resident SVYASA students. The intervention was 3 weeks of a yoga training program, new for the novices, but the lifestyle of the experienced group, who were therefore assessed only once. Novices were assessed on day 2 and 23 of their program at SVYASA's Yoga Medicine Hospital, making their data a pre-post, self-as-control, prospective study. Main outcome measures were mean acumeridian energy levels assessed by AcuGraph3 measures of electrodermal resistance at acupoints; additionally, gender differences, standard deviations (SDs) of all measures, and comparison of post and experienced group data. Results: Averaged energy levels significantly improved in all 24 meridians (maximum P = 0.032, 4-P < 0.01, and 19-P < 0.001). Females improved more than males (P < 0.05), both ending at similar levels to experienced practitioners, whose SDs were lower than novices on 19/24 meridians (mean F = 3.715, P = 0.0022), and 4/5 average variables. Conclusions: AcuGraph3 electrodermal measures contain substantial information, P << 0.00001. Yoga-lifestyle practice can increase and balance acumeridian energies; long-term practice decreases group SD's. These three suggest reasons why yoga practice impacts health: One, increased prana levels are important; two and three, improved physiological regulation is the key. Further studies relating traditional Indian and Chinese medical systems are needed.International Journal of Yoga 07/2014; 7(1):32-40. DOI:10.4103/0973-6131.123477
Article: Therapeutic Use of Fact Sheets in Family Therapy with Children and Adolescents With Functional Somatic Symptoms[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Functional somatic symptoms signal distress and reflect an activation of the body's stress-regulation systems. Many different types of stressors – physical, emotional or both – may activate the body's stress-regulation systems. If stress-related disruptions are extreme or are not limited in time, functional somatic symptoms may emerge, signalling that the body remains in a state of activation and somatic distress. In this paper, we describe the development of therapeutic fact sheets, which are used as part of our multimodal, family-based, rehabilitation intervention for children and adolescents presenting with functional somatic symptoms. The fact sheets provide information about functional somatic symptoms – including their assessment and treatment – from a stress-system framework. They are used in the context of a family intervention to facilitate engagement with the family and to reduce parental anxiety and reactivity. Whilst the fact sheets were initially developed for parents, over time we found that the sheets were also useful in managing anxiety in the medical and school systems. A key goal of this article is to share this resource with other clinicians working with children/adolescents with functional somatic symptoms.09/2014; 35(3). DOI:10.1002/anzf.1059

Complete genome sequence of Anaerococcus prevotii type strain (PC1T)
Anaerococcus prevotii (Foubert and Douglas 1948) Ezaki et al. 2001 is the type species of the genus, and is of phylogenetic interest because of its arguable assignment to the provisionally arranged family 'Peptostreptococcaceae'. A. prevotii is an obligate anaerobic coccus, usually arranged in clumps or tetrads. The strain, whose genome is described here, was originally isolated from human plasma; other strains of the species were also isolated from clinical specimen. Here we describe the features of this organism, together with the complete genome sequence and annotation. This is the first completed genome sequence of a member of the genus. Next to Finegoldia magna, A. prevotii is only the second species from the family 'Peptostreptococcaceae' for which a complete genome sequence is described. The 1,998,633 bp long genome (chromosome and one plasmid) with its 1852 protein-coding and 61 RNA genes is a part of the Genomic Encyclopedia of Bacteria and Archaea project.

Respond to Review of Gentle Gourmet Cafe
by Alyson
Review: Whilst it's great to eat in a fully vegan place, particularly in continental Europe, I can't give exceedingly high praise for this place. It is 'gourmet' in that it's expensive prices for medium to small portions. Went with 3 friends and family in early September and it was busy. I liked the raw 'lasagne' I had, as I've always fancied trying it, and the desserts were ok, but one person was disappointed with theirs. The resident Paris friend had reserved, but they'd lost the booking. Luckily they still had room. She has also had various problems with them in terms of hours open, service level, helpfulness etc. I would recommend going if you've tried all the other vegetarian places but it's not outstanding food and it's not outstanding service, yet it is pretty expensive

The primary difference between the Anglican church and most Protestant denominations is that the Anglican church accepts the Apocrypha as part of the Holy Scripture whereas most Protestant denominations do not.Know More
In terms of time, there is a large gap between the Old Testament and the New Testaments that comprise the traditional Holy Bible. A set of texts used by some churches, including the Catholic, Orthodox, Lutheran and Anglican churches, is the Apocrypha. The word "apocrypha" itself means "hidden." Most Protestant denominations do not accept the Apocrypha as holy texts because they were not part of the original Hebrew text. The problem with applying this comparison across all Protestant denominations is that "Protestant" is an umbrella term that is applied to many different churches with a wide variety of beliefs. In essence, a Protestant Church is any Christian church that evolved from the teachings of Martin Luther. Those who supported the teachings of Martin Luther protested his being labeled as a heretic, thus the name "Protestants." There are many Protestant denominations that neither agree with nor support the others' beliefs. It should also be mentioned that although the Anglican church does accept the Apocrypha based on tradition, it does not rely on the teachings of these books as heavily as the Catholic or Eastern Orthodox churches.Learn more about Religion
Shinto is the indigenous religion of Japan, whereas Buddhism originated in India and only reached Japan in the eight century. Shinto is a religion with a polytheistic pantheon, whereas Buddhism does not have a main deity, and it mainly focuses on the words and philosophies of the Buddha.Full Answer >

Until recently, I always recommended that content marketers focus on high ROI activities like guest posting and SEO while limiting time on social media.
However, I was able to get 1 and 3 articles featured on LinkedIn Pulse by putting my own tips into practice.
While I do still recommend high ROI activities over social media, LinkedIn's decision to open up its publishing platform to its members has created an exciting opportunity that a lot of marketers haven't taken advantage of yet.
I signed up for early access in 2014 and spent over a month studying top posts that got featured on the Pulse and released the details of my findings on my blog.
Then the fun began, and I started experimenting with writing my own articles for LinkedIn.
Getting featured on a LinkedIn channel greatly increases your article views and accelerates your audience growth. However, most writers rarely (if ever) get featured.
Despite experimenting with different ideas and approaches, I was able to get one out of three posts featured on a LinkedIn channel. More importantly, I was able to generate hundreds of LinkedIn followers and new email subscribers to my list.
Want to do the same? Then here are some techniques and tips that helped me accomplish that you can use, too.

"What's your niche?"
These three little words strike more terror into the hearts and minds of idealistic new entrepreneurs than any others.
Has this ever been you?
You start a blog about your passions and write what you're sure is the most amazing content on the planet. After several months, hardly anyone aside from your mom and your partner is reading. And those who are reading don't leave comments or even click the friggin' 'like' button!
So you do some research to try to figure out the problem, and everywhere you look the experts are talking about choosing a niche. It appears to be a technique for improving your reach and bottom line by removing all the passion from the topic you've been so passionately writing about and confining your message to a neat and sterile package with one… horribly… narrow… focus.
Panic takes hold. Is this what it takes to have a successful business?!
Frustration mounts. Despair sinks in. You think about giving up.
Or worse, you actually give up.
Sadly, many budding entrepreneurs of all kinds suffer from these debilitating fears, but it doesn't need to be this way.
The above concerns all seem to be valid and make sense, but the fact is that knowing your niche is highly beneficial to your business – it's not a cruel and terrible joke created by the universe to torment the intrepid souls who dare to reach for something more in their life by starting a business.
What's going on here is just a little misunderstanding- of what a niche is, what it means to embrace one, and how to go about it.
Ted McGrath is a coach to speakers and entrepreneurs, a performer, and an expert in the use and application of stories in business.
But what makes him so unique in this?
He takes the approach in marketing that we aren't all alike, and while we can relate to each other, we are all very different – and extraordinary – people. And he believes it's this message we should share in our businesses.
Ted walks the walk and discusses his own difficult, and sometimes embarrassing, past, from his feelings of not being good enough to almost dying after he discovered in his twenties that he was earning six figures.
Are you suffering from marketing overload scrambling to get it all done?
Not sure what marketing efforts are delivering new clients to your door (and which ones aren't)?
You're definitely not alone!
According to InfusionSoft, 55% of small business owners said they don't have enough time to get everything done.
And those same business owners were much more likely to invest time (not money) into their marketing efforts.
Guess what?
Time has a cost too, but it's easy to overlook especially if you're not tracking your results.Click to tweet

On RedHat 7.3 or 8.0 I very often get a problem with
nedit server simply closing down when I close one of
the open windows. It's a bit difficult to reproduce
consistently but to me it happens at least 5 or 6 times
every day.
I typically always start an nedit session using nc and
from there on use nc or ^O to open all new windows.
When the problem occurs I get the following error
message in the xterm where I started nedit session:
Error: XtPopdown requires a subclass of shellWidgetClass
Taking the hint from the news I have tried set my LANG
to en_US on RH8, but that didn't help.
The problem happens with released 5.3 as well as with
the latest CVS version.
Logged In: YES
I can confirm this on two seperate RedHat 8.0 systems here.
It makes NEdit extremely annoying to use. I've filed a bug
report with RedHat, but I haven't had any replies from them
yet. I've tried the CVS version and even older versions of
NEdit like the 5.1.x series. My only guess is that there's
something screwy with the version of OpenMotif they're
using. Help?
Thorsten Haude
Logged In: YES
Did you try a pre-compiled binary from www.nedit.org? Could
you post the result of
nedit -V
if that doesn't help?
Logged In: YES
I'm trying out the binary from the site right now.
Unfortunately with that one I had to start it by doing:
LANG=C; nedit
I couldn't just start it normally, if I did it would crash
when I went to the open file dialog.
I will do the nedit -V even if the precompiled one works on
the CVS version of NEdit and let you know what I get later
Logged In: YES
This is the nedit -V output of the CVS version I built:
NEdit release of Oct 25, 2002
Built on: Linux, 386, GNU C
Built at: Oct 28 2002, 10:00:00

Running Motif: 2.2
Server: The XFree86 Project, Inc 40200000
Visual: Id 0x21 TrueColor 24 bit (Default)
So far it appears that the precompiled binary works just
fine, which leads me to conclude that I was right about the
OpenMotif version they're using being b0rked.
This is what the precompiled binary gives with nedit -V:
NEdit 5.3

With Motif: 2001 [@(#)Motif Version 2.1.30]
Running Motif: 2001
Server: The XFree86 Project, Inc 40200000
Where can I get the version of Motif that was used to build
the precompiled one? I can rebuild with that and see if it
fixes it for me.
Andrew Hood
Logged In: YES
We use and recommend OpenMotif 2.1.30
RH's web pages say it is in 7.3 Otherwise try rpmfind.
When all else fails you can search for the source and build
it yourself.
Logged In: YES
I've been using the binary from the site all day, it appears
to work fine other than the LANG=C workaround which I'm
guessing is due to some bad local handling?
Anyway. I'll try getting OpenMotif 2.1.30 and compiling
their version with that to see what I get.
Logged In: YES
Actually rpmfind.net lists OpenMotif 2.2.x for RedHat 7.3
Is there anyway to find out what in OpenMotif 2.2 is causing
Logged In: NO
Thanks for the idea - absolutely right - I found OpenMotif
2.1 and rebuilt nedit on both 7.3 and 8.0 with it and have
not had any problems since...
Andrew Hood
Logged In: YES
My mistake. It was RH7.2 http://www.kr.redhat.com/products/7.2/72utilcd_list.html
Someone with 2.2.x should compile with debugging enabled and submit a bug report to

Okay, I'm still seeing this no matter what verion of nedit I
use, especially if I open lots of files at a time.

Groton — A group of Groton Long Point homeowners has banded together to file a class-action lawsuit, claiming the town unfairly and illegally inflated property values, resulting in higher taxes.
At the heart of the suit is a 35 percent "adjustment factor" added to assessments in Groton Long Point, boosting home values by 14.6 percent compared to the prior year.
"The assumption that residential buildings in Groton Long Point are worth 35 percent more than comparable structures elsewhere in the town … is arbitrary, unreasonable and without foundation in fact," the suit states.
The new assessments came as the result of townwide revaluation last year. The result was a drop in land values everywhere in town except in Groton Long Point, where values rose by 5.1 percent, according to the suit. Likewise, residential home values dropped in all but a few areas across town, including Mystic Village, Center Groton and Mumford Cove.
The town hired Tyler Technologies Inc. to conduct revaluation for the tax year starting Oct. 1, 2011. After that was done using a "cost basis valuation method" to determine values, the tax assessor used a "manual override" to increase the values in Groton Long Point by 35 percent, the suit alleges.
At the 60 East Shore Drive home of John and Mary Tuohy, property was initially assessed at $245,467, a figure that rose to $331,380 after the 1.35 adjustment factor was applied. The Tuohys are two of 10 people named as plaintiffs.
In total, adjustments resulted in a $32 million jump in Groton Long Point property values over what Tyler determined, adding $700,000 in taxes levied against property owners. Increases in other areas of town were small by comparison: Old Mystic-River Road increased by 3.8 percent, Center Groton by 1.6 percent and Mystic Village by 0.3 percent.
Timothy Bates, of the Hartford firm Robinson & Cole, claims the application of the adjustment factor to one portion of town and not others violates the law. He said it is unusual for a town to apply this type of adjustment without allowances for differences in the individual properties. The basis for the 35 percent figure was a central unanswered question when the suit was being prepared, he said.
He further argues that one reason for the increase in values is that certain properties were excluded from the calculations - including estate sales, foreclosures, short sales and sales that were followed by renovations. In other areas of town those were not excluded when assessing values of properties, the suit claims.
The suit was filed by owners of five Groton Long Point properties - one on Burrows Street, one on Beach Pond Road and three on East Shore Drive - on behalf of all property owners in Groton Long Point, a borough-like political subdivision of the town that includes about 620 properties.
The town and Tax Assessor Mary Gardner are named as defendants. Gardner declined to comment on the advice of the town attorney.
Groton Long Point homeowner Jack Sebastian said his name is not on the suit, but he supports the effort to challenge the town.
"It's the right thing to do," Sebastian said. "This was done illegally by arbitrarily adding this percentage. Property (values) are not supposed to be determined by a number that's fudged by the assessor."
The suit asks the court to void the 35 percent increase, immediately reduce property values, reimburse homeowners for any tax overpayments and pay attorney costs.
Bates said the town has yet to reply to the suit, which was filed on Sept. 11. The town council was expected to meet with the town attorney behind closed doors on Tuesday.

Why is one inch piece of lead tape feed prior to every label that prints out
and can this tape waste be eliminated?
Due to the design and construction of the tape mechanism, it
is essential to feed a certain amount of tape through the machine before the
first label. However, by printing labels consecutively, subsequent labels can be
printed without this excess tape.
1. In P-touch Editor, click File =>
2. In the Print dialog box, select Chain
Printing and then click Print. The label will remain in the
printer until the next label is printed. Continue on creating and printing
out the next label. When all the labels are finished, press the CUT
button on the printer to feed out the last label.
Note: Chain Printing can also be selected in the printer
Printing Preferences.
1. Click on Start => Control Panel =>
Printer (for XP click Start => Printers and Faxes).
2. Right click on the model PT9700PC or PT9800PCN and
then select Printing Preferences.
3. In the Printing Preference dialog box, under the
Basic tab, select Chain Printing.
4. Click Apply and then OK.

Halo out there!
I was reading an article before that learns you how to expose an email sender..
So this article describes the way that someone can change the email headers (Received) and send you a fake email. E.g He change one received header and makes you believe that this mail comes from halo.com and not from hotmail.com .
My question is how something like this can happen ? I thought something but i don't know if i m right . My thought is about changing these headers with some php script..
Anyway.. If someone knows more things about this subject lets talk to us :) and give us some more info... :)
Thanks a lot!

PureGuardian H1010 Table Top Humidifier
- Item #: GG0014
Ships today !
PureGuardian H1010 Table Top Humidifier
The PureGuardian Table Top humidifier is a lightweight, compact humidifier you can take nearly anywhere with you. Easy to use and to operate, the redesigned Pure Guardian H1010 is small enough to travel, yet powerful enough to alleviate the symptoms brought on by dry, winter air.
Two unique features work to create a quiet, germ free alternative for your humidifier needs. First, as an ultrasonic humidifier, the Pure \Guardians use a metal diaphragm vibrating at an ultrasonic frequency to create water droplets. Thanks to ultrasonic technology, the models are virtually silent when running, making it ideal to use while you sleep. Secondly, Pure Guardian humidifiers employ microscopic silver particles in the tank and nozzle. Silver kills hundreds of different types of bacteria and viruses by simply coming in contact with them. This technology, combined with the ultrasonic vibrations' ability to destroy microbes, creates worry-free operation free of pathogens that often thrive in the standing water of traditional humidifiers.

This little guy works great. I use it in the bedroom and have noticed the difference..
Write Your Own Review
PureGuardian Table Top Humidifier
The ultrasonic humidifier series from PureGuardian is designed specifically for small rooms and personal spaces. All of these humidifiers have Silver Clean Technology that fights mold and bacteria in the water tank without the hassle of replacement filters or pads. The Table Top Humidifier is small enough to fit anywhere and deliver cool mist humidification to small rooms, including a child's bedroom. Compact and light, the H1010 is also great to take with you when you travel. You can plug it in your hotel room and not worry about sinus problems due to dry air while you sleep.
What I like about the PureGuardian H1010
The PureGuardian Ultrasonic Table Top Humidifier is perfect for your office, cubicle, or den area. The humidifier sits up off the floor and saves space. Standing only eight inches tall, it fits in well with any environment. Pure Guardian did not cut corners with performance. The Table Top has up to a 14 hour run time with a tank that holds about one quart. It also has a night glow function for use in a young child's room or nursery and makes no noise while in operation.
What I do not like about the PureGuardian H1010
The PureGuardian H1010 is a good humidifier if you have a specific need for a portable humidifier. Otherwise, this humidifier is toosmall to do a great job in a large room. It works for a baby's nursery, small office space, dorm room or to take with you on the go.
In summary, these ultrasonic humidifiers from Pure Guardian are as quiet as any humidifiers that I have used. In the Table Top model, Pure Guardian gives the user the ability to move the humidifier anywhere in a room. You can also take this small humidifierwith you when traveling, visiting relatives, or on business trips.

Re: Hardshells: 3-season, 4-season, etc.
The Rab/ID eVent shells are about ideal as year-round hard shells. I can generally wear one almost as a windbreaker (almost...), & the fabric's tough enough for any season... at 10 ounces, ...
Re: Adding Down to a WM Summerlite Bag
There's plenty of room for more down in a Summerlite. However, it's not a bag that WM has an overfill for... and they seem to be quite hesitant to do. Not a problem adding the down, shoo...
Re: canister stove options

sizing comment
Just to clarify, when I said to go up one size on the Rab/ID stuff, I say that assuming you're just wearing "normal" clothing. IE, if I'm wearing a 150-wt wool and a midweight woo...
Re: Rab sizing
Chris, you wouldn't wear down under a shell while hiking. You'd do it in camp if you're in mixed conditions, ie 30*F rain. On Rab/ID sizing, go up a size from normal. I wear a mediu...
Re: 4 person backpacking shelter
