| Mansfield Road Improvements
|This project has been designed and will be constructed in partnership with Dallas County in coordination with: Texas Parks and Wildlife, US Army Corps of Engineers, City of Grand Prairie, City of Mansfield, and City of Midlothian. The design development has also benefitted from extensive citizen involvement and review. This project, Mansfield Road between Belt Line Road and Anderson Drive, is part of approximately 12.2 mile roadway system which connects State Highway 161 (at I-20) to US Highway 67. The project section of this roadway system is the only portion which is not four (4) lanes wide.
The project scope includes the widening of Mansfield Road from two (2) lanes to a 4-lane divided arterial roadway, from approximately 600 feet west of the intersection of Belt Line Road to the western city limit (just west of Anderson Drive). The project includes replacement/upgrading of water mains, sewer mains, and the installation of underground storm drainage improvements.
The project design has been complete, advertised for bids, and the construction contract awarded by Cedar Hill City Council. Tiseo Paving Company, Inc. is the prime contractor for the construction of these improvements.
In August 2015, Oncor Electric began relocating utility poles along Mansfield Road. AT&T and Time Warner Cable will begin their relocation efforts following the completion of the Oncor's utility work.
The Mansfield Road Improvements Project also includes limited localized street failure repairs on Lakeview Drive, between Lake Ridge Parkway and Mansfield Road.
What will be the improvements to Mansfield Road once construction is complete?

Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) October 01, 2013
While some people in Utah may be tempted to begin taking drugs like the new 'double-chin' injections, many have failed to research the dangerous complications and drug effects that can accompany these treatments. For those in Utah interested in eliminating embarrassing body fat from hard to reach areas of the body, including a double chin, Diet Doc now offers their advanced, all natural hormone diet treatments that not only target stored body fat in areas like the stomach, thighs, chin and underarms, but that also actively suppress the client's appetite and allow them to lose weight quickly without struggling with negative drug effects. Diet Doc's hormone diet treatments have successfully helped thousands of their clients quickly and easily achieve their weight loss goals and create a happier, more active lifestyle.
This new 'double-chin' drug is still in its final testing stages, but researchers believe that the drug works better than placebos in reducing fat in the neck area, which can create the appearance of a double chin. While the drug is intended to destroy body fat cells while leaving other tissue largely unaffected, subjects have reported to Yahoo News, mild to moderate negative drug effects upon its use. Unfortunately, these drug effects are dangerous and can include swelling, pain, bruising, numbness and redness of the skin. Now dieters interested in eliminating body fat in hard to reach areas of the body no longer have to suffer through these negative drug effects because Diet Doc offers their clients al

TravelPod Member ReviewsInn at Wecoma Lincoln City
I called from on the road to get a room for one night. Molly, the front desk clerk was excellent and gave us a very nice room and I was able to use a discount coupon for 10% off that I had cut from a tour book. The hotel was so very clean and the room was very large. Customer service is "on the spot" here and I would definitely recommend this hotel for a place to stay.

"Their hip is moved in the computer program until there is collision between the ball and the socket. It assesses the point at which impingement occurs," explained Dr. Kelly. "Postoperatively, another CT scan is obtained and we assess the same range of motion."
The researchers found great improvements in internal rotation, moving your knee to the middle of your body, and in hip flexion, the motion of bringing your knee to your chest. Hip flexion was improved by 3.8 degrees and internal rotation was improved by 9.3 degrees. A comparison of the alpha angle, which measures the roundness of the femoral head (ball of the thigh bone), showed an improvement of roughly 20 degrees.
"Before this study, we did not know what our ability was to functionally improve range of motion across a hip joint in a patient who has had surgical correction of their underlying hip impingement," said Dr. Kelly. "With this study, we have clear objective data, confirming with dynamic assessment, that by improving the mechanical shape of the joint, we significantly improve range of motion and significantly reduce the areas of bony conflict."

If you know the legend of Ernest Shackleton's amazing death defying mission to Antarctica, you know all you need to know about Mackinlay's Rare Old Highland Malt whisky. It is meant for men of incredible character. Several cases of the stuff, abandoned on his ice-locked ship, were discovered a century after the fact and provided the recipe for this amazing re-creation of age-old Scotch whisky.
If you tote around any type of USB-powered device you'd be nuts not to buy this PocketCell rechargeable battery bank from Innergie.

Sports car fanatics have been waiting for the return of the fabled Acura NSX, aka the "Japanese Ferrari." Well, it's coming back. We're not sure exactly when but sometime in the next two or three years. The concept car features the same high-revving rear-mounted six but this one is also backed up by 3 electric motors which control torque in its unique AWD system. We don't know how many ponies this new NSX will push but a hybrid with lines like these is sure to be a hit.
This emergency dual-band GSM cell phone has something that until now you & your current phone could only dream of: A 15-year battery life. It is made for emergencies and automatically transmits its location. At $50 this is a small pricetag for some serious piece of mind. Throw one in the glove box and when you're stranded on the side of the road with a dead car and dead iPhone, you'll be glad you did.
Hot off the presses, Fujifilm just launched their X-Pro 1. It's a small yet versatile rangefinder-style camera that's equipped for interchangeable lenses and has a huge 16-megapixel sensor. There are currently three lenses available: an 18mm, a 35mm, and a 60mm. It's also got a hotshoe flash mount. This little unit truly is a photographer's camera but still easy enough to use, even for us amateurs.
The Hero, a handmade Italian leather duffel from Atto Bags is just right for a minimalist weekend escape or the daily commute-work-gym circuit. With its heavy-duty hardware and deconstructed finish in leather or recycled tire rubber, it's tough enough to take just about anywhere.

The one stinger is that you have to pay extra for Pioneer's wi-fi adapter but once you do you'll be rocking the house.
Los Angeles isn't exactly the epicenter of the "handmade" movement but there are exceptions to every rule.

Goldmember's G-Wagen - Mercedes-Benz G-Class by GSC
Re-Styled SUV Is Anything But Subtle
If you think the Dartz Pombron Aladeen Edition is pretty sweet, then perhaps you'd be interested in this latest creation of Chemnitz, Germany-based German Special Customs, the GoldStorm GSC Wide Body. Although the Mercedes-Benz G-Class' characteristic tailgate-mounted spare remains, complete with a custom GSC spare cover, two of the G-Class' other iconic styling details are ditched in favor of more...umm...modern elements.
The G-Class' timeless round headlamps have been replaced by rectangular units, while it's the opposite out back, where the G's traditional rectangular taillights have been replaced with round LED units. No mechanical details are given as part of the transformation, indicating the makeover could be applied to any four-door G-Wagen. Interestingly, the G's signature side-exit exhausts appear to have been relocated to the rear of the vehicle.
A specific price for this styling package isn't listed on GSC's Web site, but considering the hood, front and rear bumpers are all crafted from carbon fiber, it's probably a safe assumption to figure the transformation will run in the five-figure range. If you're interested, GSC also offers a styling packages for the Mercedes-Benz M-Class, CLS-Class, and the Lamborghini Aventador.

Re: Mac can't find printer in response to den.thed Solved
The driver is current.
But I have solved the problem by switching to ethernet from wifi and resetting the printer. I'm guessing the signal strength dropped. I'll sort out the wifi issue when I've recovered my own strength (Brother lists 21 steps to resetting printer to wifi!)
Thanks for your suggestion though.

Andrea M. Berlin
In his discussion of Judea, the Greek geographer Strabo, writing in the time of the emperor Augustus, records the interesting demographic aside that the country's northern regions are "inhabited in general … by mixed stocks of people from Egyptian and Arabian and Phoenician tribes"; they live, he says further on, "mixed up thus" (16.2.34 § C760). Such a remark, made to and repeated by an outsider, likely reflects what at least some observers saw as significant about the region. Like any off-hand characterization of an entire area, it was surely as generally misleading as it was true, though those who lived in and knew northern Judea first-hand would have easily fleshed out the social picture behind the words. We stand at a disadvantage, trying to discern from words and disparate remains what such a remark might actually mean in terms of Galilean culture and society. Many historians and archaeologists have combed and compared the period's literary sources for answers to this fundamental question. In what follows, I hope to add a material thread to the picture they have developed. I will present new evidence that documents and clarifies the lifestyles and choices of the inhabitants of Galilee.
There is an astonishing amount of archaeological information from the Galilee (Meyers 1997:57). The evidence includes all manner of material remains, from houses and reservoirs to paintings and cooking pots. The abundance and variety is surely one reason for the somewhat discrepant scholarly views of the region (contra Meyers 1995; Horsley and Hanson 1988:51, 60-1, 72-3, 232-3; Freyne 1988:165; and most recently Groh 1997:30). This is, of course, the nature of the archaeological beast: practitioners increasingly overwhelmed by data are hard-put to devise coherent road maps, and non-specialists can easily lose their way. When the archaeological remains from Galilee have been considered on their own, it is often with an eye to evaluating whether they differ in toto from those of other regions (so Meyers 1976, 1985, 1995; Strange 1997:43-7). An analysis that compares the region's abundant material remains within and among themselves is equally valuable, however; for the individual choices and decisions that the

Historical Traveler Reviews Billesley Manor Hotel Stratford-upon-Avon
Ideal for a family
I disagree with some of the more recent reviews and agree with some things. This is where trip advisor is really wonderful in being able to see various sides of a vacation. Let me start by saying I booked my room via luxurylink. My stay was for 3 nights (Nov. 19-21) and included dinner one evening, breakfast and a spa treatment. I also must add that we traveled with our 2 children, ages 8 and 10. Upon arrival and check-in we were taken to our room which was #15 at the top of the manor house (main facility). The room was one of the largest for a family of 4 that we've encountered in Europe. The girls had very nice beds with down comfortors and their own TV and sitting area. Down a long hallway was the room I shared with my husband and it also had another TV which was wonderful for us come evening hours when the girls retired early. I do admit that the carpeting in the room was threadbare in spots and could stand to be replaced but overall the room was clean and well decorated. I only found a bit of mildew in the shower which I made the staff aware of upon departure. Our room was well heated and I found the entire facility very comfortable. We had temps in the 20s-30s during our stay and rain so it was pretty yucky outside. The shower water was also very hot. Dinner in the restaurant was very well done and the presentation of the dishes were excellent. They even had a nice children's menu. I agree that the wine list was minimal and the service was slow, but overall it was a pleasant dining experience for the food cost. The breakfast buffet in the a.m. was also well done. I also had a 1/2 hour massage and 1/2 hour facial and found the spa area to be very nice. There were limited hours for the children to swim in the pool but that was fine and the pool was very nice along with the steam room and sauna. This manor home is from the 1600s so the steps do creak but that is part of the overall package. Granted, we stayed on the top floor so we did have a quiet stay compared to those that may be on the other floors. Do I think this is a 4 or 5 star facility - no. A bit of remodeling needs to take place in the rooms for me to classify it as such. Being out in the country a bit more does make it less "tourist like" and far more enjoyable of a stay. I have family in the area so we visit quite often and I will return here given the room size and overall value for a family. Beware that they do add a 5% gratuity on the bill and we did the "tip as you go" so this was removed. We were also surprised to find charges for the newspaper that appeared outside of our door and for local telephone calls. There is also no safe, mini bar or wall hairdryer (one was found in the drawer) but they did have nice white robes for use and provided turn-down service. I think they are trying to be a luxury hotel but they do have a bit of ways to go in that respect but we did have a memorable stay.
Hotel is promises a lot more than it offers
The hotel is rundown, carpets threadbare. heating did not work, although it was freezing no fires lit in the common rooms.
The room was nice, but next to a cesspit which made a lot of noise, never mind the smell!!
The distance from the room to the Spa or other common rooms was far and one had to go outside, for 200 yards, not nice coming from the swimming pool and it is raining outsiede and cold.
Tje celebrated food was bad, far to salty and no attention to details, paper napkins.
The breakfast was nothing special, service inddifferent. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.
Good food dreadful room
Stayed last weekend. Hotel itself is aesthetically pleasing and gardens are very pleasant. Enjoyed excellent meal in the restaurant and service was top notch. However, our bedroom was dreadful. 1980's peach decor with cobwebs and spider webs all over the place ranging from the shower head to the windows and mirrors. Peeling paintwork in the bathroom and no heat despite 3 requests to the front desk. The entire corridor of rooms was without heat and it was a cold weekend. Room was far from four star standards - more like a 2 at most. Would go back to the restaurant but wouldn't stay there again.
Style over substance
I recently spent a night at Billesley Manor to celebrate my wedding anniversary, and despite the obvious aesthetic qualities, my stay was overshadowed by poor quality accomodation and a short, but extremely expensive wine list.
The location is spectacular, and the gardens and main house promise much in the way of luxury.
The Spa facilities are excellent, with my wife extremely complimentary about the quality of service she received.
Unfortunately the hotel seems to have forgotten about the basic facilities which can make or break a weekend away, namely the room and the restaurant.
Our room was situated in the barn conversion close to the main house and suffered from being in close proximity to a stagnant pool. The stench was overwhelming at times, particularly in the afternoon.
The room was finished in a modern style, and the bathroom was extremely appealing ... right up until the moment you wanted to take a shower. The shower was the worst I have ever experienced with wildly fluctuating pressure and temperature both in the morning and evening.
Given that the hotel was full and was unable to offer us an alternative room, we eventually settled on using the facilities within the Spa.
The food in the restaurant was fine, but the main bone of contention was the wine list. The choice was limited, and those wines which were available were ridiculously over-priced, a fact which was exacerbated by the addition of a 5% service charge. We ended up paying �37 for a bottle of wine which can be picked up for less than a tenner at your local Tesco's.
I cannot recommend Billesley Manor for a weekend away, and I imagine it will suffer when the new spa hotel being built just down the road opens in 2005.
Idyllic setting
We have just returned from a weekend at Billesley Manor celebrating a wedding. It is a beautiful country setting and most of the staff are wonderful especially their resident barman James....deserves to be manager as nothing was too much trouble even at 2am. Ask for a room overlooking the fountain. Just so romantic.
Beautiful (if pricey) manor and grounds - spa provincial
Beautiful old manor house and grounds...impeccably kept, Breakfast was a true experience...and the staff was helpful and friendly. The only slight negative was that the spa was provincial and services were not to be expected from a first class hotel. Overall, the stay was lovely and a bit pricey. We loved the outdoor dining area, the paneled interior dining area, and the fountain and grounds. I suggest the country walk into stratford upon avon, about 5 of the loveliest and pastoral miles you could wish for. All in all, started our european vacation off with a smile and memories of this hotel are warm and impressive
Nice hotel and grounds, shame about shower and breakfast
Hi, I booked this hotel for a special trip for my girlfriend's birthday - we were going to see Romeo and Juliet at the theatre in Stratford.
The hotel itself is lovely and the grounds are too. We were in the nearby building which was modern and clean. Our only issues were i) The shower which switched between scaldingly hot and freezing cold (busy on Sunday morning maybe?!) and ii) The breakfast was a bit soggy and had to ask 3 times for coffee and toast by which time we'd finished.
Probably great- when quiet. Avoid when busy.
Tried to check in- very busy and had given our room to someone else.
Eventually gave us a standard room (had booked executive).Room had mildew in 1970's tiled bathroom and peeling wallpaper.Compensation, after some cajoling, was a bottle of wine. On plus side food was excellent. Strangely run establishment- would not go back.
I would whole-heartedly agree with the above comment. My husband & I got married at Billesley Manor last Summer, and had a wonderful day & stay here. A lot of our guests also commented on the picturesque venue & the hight quality of service from the staff. An American relative also joined us, she loved the history & relics displayed throughout the hotel.
Pure Class
We visited the Billesley Manor Hotel in May 2003, to celebrate my wife's birthday.
The hotel is excellent in every way. Beautiful building, beautiful grrounds and topiary gardens, and excellent service. We had a four-poster room overlooking the gardens. It was large and luxurious, but still retained it's character. Wood panelling and creaking flor-boards added to it's charm.
The service was always polite, and immediate. As if the staff knew in advance when you would need them.
The food in the restaurant was also excellent, and again, the service was exceptional. Polite yet unobtrusive staff providing just what we wanted, when we wanted it.
I would heartily recommend this hotel.It's not cheap, but it's worth every penny of the cost.

Bucolic day in English countryside
Weather: Lovely, warm, sunny.
The plan for today was some preparation for Sue's birthday party here on Sunday afternoon. Sue's son Stuart came and helped put up 2 borrowed gazebos in the garden and set up tables in the conservatory. He was here for morning tea and a relaxing lunch. After Stuart left we two girls, with dog Dove went for a short drive to Boddington Reservoir to walk around it, which took about an hour. This reservoir is ...
Fancy a round? Yes. (Golf and/or drinks).
... and geographers) but I altered it slightly by keeping the stone and throwing myself in, in an attempt to wash myself and my clothes. Here I'm just trying not to offend any other walkers!
Today's CWW is about 27 km my greatest distance yet. It has a 7.5 loop hence the next few photos which are of exactly the same thing (Winchcombe church and Sudley Castle) but taken from vantage points really close to each other but separated by a 2 hour walk!
The loop though did ...
The odyssey begins (and some of it is odd).

We have just completed the town walk, by we I mean me (admittedly Lee did most of it but went 'home' for a snooze), I say home because our host has just done our washing for us, folded all our clothes, apologised for not having a pair of my pants dried and all that after telling us that the laundromat is only 5 miles away and giving us bus ...
London to Stratford Upon Avon
... exhibition of Egyptian artifacts and diggings was interesting in Oxford. Stratford Upon Avon is a quirky town centred around the birthplace of Shakespeare. We were entertained by impromptu performances, a walk through Shakespeare's house, strolling through the cobbled streets and seeing the boats on the lock. The Alverston Manor is a lovely hotel. Driving through the Cotswalds reminded me of the many homes I've seen ...
Boston - Ed's POV
Waved Nick, Emma and Charlie off this morning, they started their drive north to Buckhorn, Ontario stopping at friends and family on the way.

U.S. Navy Awards General Dynamics $6 Million to Upgrade Mission System Computers for AV-8B Harrier II Jet Fleet
FAIRFAX, Va., Sept. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems was awarded a contract by the U.S. Navy to support the implementation of the Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE) application program interface onto a new Open Systems Processor card in the mission system computer for the AV-8B Harrier II jet. Under the $6.1 million 18-month contract, General Dynamics will upgrade the Harrier's mission computers to provide a common operating environment that supports faster, less expensive integration of common applications. General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems is a business unit of General Dynamics (NYSE: GD).
The FACE technical standard strengthens the U.S. military's ability to address software obsolescence and enhances software portability and interoperability across the various Department of Defense airborne platforms. It is designed to reduce lifecycle costs, foster a competitive avionics marketplace and facilitate the adoption of new technologies supported by an open architecture environment.
"We continuously look to implement technologies and solutions that reduce the costs of existing customer platforms," said Mike Tweed-Kent, vice president and general manager of General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems Mission Integration Systems division. "Our work with the Navy on this contract exemplifies that philosophy. With sustainability and flexibility in mind, our open architecture design provides the Navy with a computing foundation that enables the quick, low-cost integration of emerging technologies and applications. This makes it possible for our customers to more rapidly and cost-effectively address their constantly evolving mission requirements." Under this contract, General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems will configure the AV-8B's mission system computers with a second, third-generation open systems processor. This configuration will include FACE software upgrades to host required navigation performance (RNP) and area navigation (RNAV) applications which are being integrated by the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Directorate. Once configured with the new open systems processor, General Dynamics will perform rigorous qualification testing of the mission computer hardware and core system software. The government will then conduct testing to ensure that the upgraded mission system computers support flight clearance and fleet introduction. General Dynamics will also provide technical support to the FACE implementation team, including the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Directorate.
General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems is the sole designer, developer and manufacturer of the mission system computer for the Harrier jets and the Advanced Mission Computers that are used on F/A-18E, F/A-18F and EA-18G aircraft. Built on a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS)-based open architecture, the General Dynamics airborne mission computers are ruggedized, high-performance, high-reliability mission and display-processing systems that are easily configurable to any operating environment. The systems perform general purpose, input/output, video and graphics processing and are designed to operate reliably in the extreme environmental conditions of today's high-performance fighter aircraft.

Starred Review. Does the Bush administration ignore or deny mainstream research to please its conservative base? Have business groups and certain religious lobbies helped it do so? Does Bush-era treatment of scientists differ from that of Clinton, George H.W. Bush and Reagan? Has a Republican Congress passed laws designed to disable clean air and water efforts, and has it dismantled safeguards, such as the Congressional Office of Technology Assessment, meant to give legislators unbiased advice? Mooney's passionate, thoroughly researched volume answers these questions with an urgent "yes." A former American Prospect writer who is making his book debut, Mooney uses interviews and old-fashioned document-digging to explain how, over two decades, right-wing politicians built institutions designed to discredit working scientists; how some energy companies have allied themselves with powerful Republicans (such as Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma) to block or reverse U.S. steps to curb global warming; and how the present administration defies expert consensus on climate change, on mercury pollution, even on how to read statistics. Mooney tracks Bush White House efforts to spread misinformation about stem cells; the work of religious right regulators like Dr. David Hager (formerly on the FDA's Reproductive Health Drugs advisory committee) in restricting access to birth control; and the attempts of the Discovery Institute (and other think tanks linked to the Bush base) to fight the teaching of evolution. In the past five years, Mooney documents, many formerly apolitical physicists, biologists and doctors have come to believe there is a "pattern" of science abuse under Bush, a push back against the methods of science itself. Conservatives may react with indignation; liberals, moderates and working scientists will find few surprises,but Mooney's very readable, and understandably partisan, volume is the first to put the whole story, thoroughly documented, in one place.

Thomas Jefferson would be appalled. More than two centuries after he helped to shape a government based on the idea that reason and technological advancement would propel the new United States into a glorious future, the political party that now controls that government has largely turned its back on science. Even as the country and the planet face both scientifically complex threats and remarkable technological opportunities, many Republican officeholders reject the most reliable sources of information and analysis available to guide the nation. As inconceivable as it would have been to Jefferson--and as dismaying as it is to growing legions of today's scientists--large swaths of the government in Washington are now in the hands of people who don't know what science is. More ominously, some of those in power may grasp how research works but nonetheless are willing to subvert science's knowledge and expert opinion for short-term political and economic gains. That is the thesis of The Republican War on Science, by Chris Mooney, one of the few journalists in the country who specialize in the now dangerous intersection of science and politics. His book is a well-researched, closely argued and amply referenced indictment of the right wing's assault on science and scientists. Mooney's chronicle of what he calls "science abuse" begins in the 1970s with Richard Nixon and picks up steam with Ronald Reagan. But both pale in comparison to the current Bush administration, which in four years has: * Rejected the scientific consensus on global warming and suppressed an EPA report supporting that consensus.
* Stacked numerous advisory committees with industry representatives and members of the religious Right.
* Begun deploying a missile defense system without evidence that it can work.
* Banned funding for embryonic stem cell research except on a claimed 60 cell lines already in existence, most of which turned out not to exist.
* Forced the National Cancer Institute to say that abortion may cause breast cancer, a claim refuted by good studies.
* Ordered the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to remove information about condom use and efficacy from its Web site. Mooney explores these and many other examples, including George W. Bush's support for creationism. In almost every instance, Republican leaders have branded the scientific mainstream as purveyors of "junk science" and dubbed an extremist viewpoint--always at the end of the spectrum favoring big business or the religious Right--"sound science." One of the most insidious achievements of the Right, Mooney shows, is the Data Quality Act of 2000--just two sentences, written by an industry lobbyist and quietly inserted into an appropriations bill. It directs the White House's Office of Management and Budget to ensure that all information put out by the federal government is reliable. The law seems sensible, except in practice. It is used mainly by industry and right-wing think tanks to block release of government reports unfavorable to their interests by claiming they do not contain "sound science." For all its hostility to specific scientific findings, the Right never says it opposes science. It understands the cachet in the word. Perhaps Republicans sense what pollsters have known for decades--that the American public is overwhelmingly positive about science and that there is nothing to be gained by opposing a winner. Instead the Right exploits a misconception about science common among nonscientists--a belief that uncertainty in findings indicates fatally flawed research. Because most cutting-edge science--including most research into currently controversial topics--is uncertain, it is dismissed as junk. This naive understanding of science hands the Right a time-tested tactic. It does not claim that business interests or moral values trump the scientific consensus. Rather rightists argue that the consensus itself is flawed. Then they encourage a debate between the consensus and the extremist naysayers, giving the two apparently equal weight. Thus, Mooney argues, it seems reasonable to split the difference or simply to argue that there is too much uncertainty to, say, ban a suspect chemical or fund a controversial form of research. The Republican War on Science details political and regulatory debates that can be arcane and complex, engrossing reading only for dedicated policy wonks. Thankfully, Mooney is both a wonk and a clear writer. He covered many of the battles in real time for publications such as the Washington Post, Washington Monthly, Mother Jones and American Prospect. "When politicians use bad science to justify themselves rather than good science to make up their minds," Mooney writes, "we can safely assume that wrongheaded and even disastrous decisions lie ahead." Thomas Jefferson would, indeed, be appalled. Writing in 1799 to a young student whom he was mentoring, the patriot advised the man to study science and urged him to reject the "doctrine which the present despots of the earth are inculcating," that there is nothing new to be learned. He concluded by saying opposition to "freedom and science would be such a monstrous phenomenon as I cannot place among possible things in this age and this country."

So, I'm in a VERY weird situation. I'm still married. My soon to be ex is in the army, so I don't know if I'll qualify for any assistance. He is being nice enough to keep me on tricare until the baby is born (even though it's cheaper for both of us--he wants to look like a hero), and then he leaves for Afghanistan, so I just don't know what I'll qualify for. Obviously I'll be getting SOME child support, but I had quit my job to move to Kentucky with him.. and now I'm jobless. Do any of you have any advice, or anyone in the same sitution?
Thanks for the help ladies!

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful
a smorgasbord of myths, fables, parodies and puns,
This review is from: The New Death and others (Kindle Edition)
The New Death and others is an interesting collection of short stories and poems. As with any collection of stories, I liked some of them, hated a few and others were just OK for me. Two memorable ones were "How the Isle of Cats Got Its Name" and "Weary Love"
James Hutchings has an active imagination. This body of work is a smorgasbord of myths, fables, parodies and puns. There were political and religious views woven into a lot of the work. Some racial and ethnic profiling may upset the unsuspecting reader. In all honesty, a lot of the intended humor missed its mark with me. I would have liked to have seen an overall theme to this novel. When I purchase a collection of works, it is usually because the stories or poems all share a common theme that interests me. While some of the tales had a good story line, I felt cheated. They weren't developed enough and felt rushed. I would have preferred a longer story with more details. Hutchings's fantasy stories show promise. This collection is available as an eBook .
I want to thank author James Hutchings for providing me with a copy of his eBook in exchange for my unbiased review.

DEFINITION of 'Channel Stuffing'
A deceptive business practice used by a company to inflate its sales and earnings figures by deliberately sending retailers along its distribution channel more products than they are able to sell to the public.
BREAKING DOWN 'Channel Stuffing'
By channel stuffing, distributors temporarily beef up their accounts receivables. However, unable to sell the excess products, retailers will send the excess items instead of cash back to the distributor, who must readjust its accounts receivable and ultimately its bottom line. In other words, stuffing always catches up with the company, because it cannot maintain sales at the rate it is stuffing.
This is usually done fraudulently to raise the value of the stock. Channel stuffing is illegal.

You guys all know what Tumblr and Twitter are, right? (seriously who doesn't at this point). Well I am currently on both:
The reason why I bring this up is to let you guys know that between deviations, I am posting WIP previews on Tumblr and Twitter. I know there are a few people that are interested in what I am currently up to and this is just another way to give you guys more content whenever my DeviantART seems inactive.
Another thing I also do on those sites is post wallpapers that I don't post on here because they use official art. Posts like that include:
and when I post a quick update or mumble I post little previews like this:
currently on Tumblr I have a preview of my next piece, so make sure to have a look and don't forget to follow!
Pieces that have WIP previews right now are:
the Tumblr link on their description takes you to the WIP shots and finished pieces
which reminds me, if you see a deviation you like and want to reblog it on Tumblr, the Tumblr link in the description takes you to its respective Tumblr post and you can reblog from there!
well anyways see you guys around!
Commissions are still OPEN:
Commission PilotHello everyone!
HK here to tell you guys and gals that I'm opening commissions for the first time ever on DeviantART *throws confetti*
now since this is my first time, there are bound to be hiccups and I hope you'll bear with me if there are any screw ups with my "business" model
The reason why I, all of a sudden, decided to open commissions is because I want to simply draw different things coming from different minds and to expand my portfolio. I'm not planning on completely leaving my comfort zone since I wouldn't want you guys to pay for something I'm not prepared for which in turn is not fun for you or me. I'll leave that for when I'm not doing commissions.
Now let's begin!
*DISCLAIMER - By commissioning me you are granting me permission to: Record footage of the video's making and publish it, Feature the artwork in personal portfolios, post it on DeviantART, and any other social media website. This includes any artwork that features your original characters. ALL commissions wil

The following review of Avalon Bed and Breakfast in Ottawa was posted to tripadvisor.com on 29 June 2010.
What more can I say. Prior to arriving I was impressed by the look of the B&B on the website, and the price was fantastic. Upon arriving, Brock and Christine were incredibly hospitable and polite, but not overbearing.
If you're looking for a great place to stay, within walking distance of a ton of notable points of interest, this is the place to go. Also, it's a great place to stay for a younger crowd.
on August 24, 2009
My Girlfriend and I stayed at Avalon BB after seeing the ad in googlemap. Christine accommodated the late checked in (asking me not to make noise as other guests would be resting) and the room was beautiful. Christine and Brock were very friendly and sat down with us for breakfast and made us feel truly at home. The place is impeccable, and no heavy scented as my girlfriend has allergies.
We enjoyed ourselves very much and will stay again…!

Senators ship F Heatley to Sharks
Updated: September 12, 2009, 10:25 PM ETAssociated Press
The San Jose Sharks made the big move that has been expected ever since their best regular season ended with a first-round playoff exit, acquiring disgruntled winger Dany Heatley from the Ottawa Senators on Saturday.
The Sharks gave up Milan Michalek, Jonathan Cheechoo and a second-round pick to acquire Heatley, who had been involved in a lingering dispute with the Senators because he felt he was not being properly used by the team.
