Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Upstate News
Kathleen Paice 315 464-4839
SUNY Upstate's Joslin Diabetes Center to hold 2002 Community Diabetes Forum Nov. 6
The Joslin Diabetes Center of SUNY Upstate Medical University will hold the 2002 Community Diabetes Forum Wednesday, Nov. 6 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Sheraton Syracuse University Hotel, 801 University Ave.
Joslin Diabetes Center speakers include Ruth Weinstock, M.D., Ph.D, the center's medical director; Gerald Saponara, M.D., podiatrist; and certified diabetes educators Jody Kearns and Suzanne Meyers.
Featured speaker will be Marlowe Smith, minister of music at The First Cathedral in Bloomfield, Conn., who will give a diabetic patient's perspective on the struggle to live with the disease. Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and weighing 400 pounds, Marlowe got his "wake up call" in 1994 when doctors diagnosed a cyst on his leg. This meant drastic medical measures unless he took action. Today, through changes in diet, discipline and exercise, Marlowe now weighs 220 pounds.
The Joslin Diabetes Center at the SUNY Upstate Medical University in Syracuse opened in 1995 as the 11th affiliate of the Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston, and the only one of its kind in upstate New York.
The event is free but seating is limited. Attendees must register by calling University Hospital's Health Connections at 315-464-8668.

Samsung Galaxy Xcover double-hard handset pictures and hands-on
Of the 8 billion Galaxy branded devices that Samsung brought forth into being for IFA 2011, it was refreshing to get our hands on the XCover because it actually looked and felt different to the rest.
It's a tough phone, which is one of the things that accounts for the fact, but it's by no means an overly chunky, all-rubber, dulled out screen affair. In fact, if we hadn't have seen the name plate next to it on the show floor, we might never have guessed.
The Samsung Galaxy XCover is the first of the company's tough phones to receive the Galaxy name and, complete with the Android 2.3 OS on board, it's set to go head to head with Motorola's Defy+. It might not have quite as beefy a spec sheet as the Motorola - an 800MHz processor, a 3.65-inch LCD - but it does have that all important IP67 rating which means that you can throw it from things, drop it in things and cover it with things and it will still work.
More to the point, it's a tough phone and it doesn't look horrid. There's a slight tank-like look to its casing, thanks to the military striping on the sides where the outer is reinforced, and all the ports are flapped to stop water and dust doing their worst.
At the same time, the interface is good, the touchscreen responsive and there's even a rather nice utility chic appearance to the front face with the Android buttons embossed like gun metal. The XCover might not be as powerful as others in its class but, camouflaged as a civilian device, it looks as if it's a worthy SOB.

Quality, Handcrafted Items by Artisans
of the Appalachian Foothills in Southeast Ohio - Things Reminiscent of
Long Ago
Content is always being added to this page so check back often to see new references to sign language. We are also adding "ILY" and other handshape items to the site.
ASL is the acronym for American Sign Language. It is a non-verbal language that uses precise hand shapes and facial expressions, movement and space, and non-manual behaviors to convey meaning. It has grammatical structure and is as expressive as any spoken language.
ASL is not universal. Historically, ASL is related to French Sign Language. One might assume the Deaf in the United States would use the same sign language as the Deaf, say, in the U.K. because the verbal language in both is English. Not so! BSL (British Sign Language) is very different than ASL. BSL, for example, uses a two-handed alphabet whereas ASL uses a one-handed alphabet.
There are many, many sign languages - Australian, Brazilian, Chinese, Czech, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Korean, Mexican, Polish, Portuguese - at least 40 more official sign languages and hundreds of dialects! All are as different as are the spoken forms of those languages.
American Sign Language is not a game of charades. When telling a story or detailing an account, the signer is very expressive and may mimic body language or gestures but ASL is a true language; it is not pantomime.
Louise Hawkins, a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults), is a professional interpreter who has worked independently and in school systems. She is also the maker of the wonderful homemade soap and lotion bars found on this site. Kimber Caito, artist and website manager, is also an interpreter. That is why we decided there should be sign language related information on this site!
Oh yes, and...
Pah! is an often-used sign meaning 'at last!', 'finally!', 'ta-da!'
Below is a list of recommended web sites, books, workbooks and videos, etc. Many public libraries do not have a large selection of signed material for adults but you can ask for an "inter-library loan". Give the librarian the name of the publication and if it available from another library system it might be possible to obtain it.
Gallaudet University Press
Gallaudet has a wonderful selection of publications for those who are seriously interested in learning about sign language. See http://gupress.gallaudet.edu/ for information; publications can also be purchased at places like Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.
The American Sign Language Handshape Dictionary
(ISBN 1-56368-444-6) is a must, especially for beginners, because it has the option to look up a sign by the handshape rather than the English word. This version has about 1,900 signs and comes with a companion video dictionary on DVD.
The Gallaudet Dictionary of American Sign Language
(ISBN 978-1-56368-282-7) has more than 3,000 ASL sign illustrations and a companion video dictionary on DVD. It is not searchable by handshape (a nice option for beginners) like the ...Handshape Dictionary above. It includes signs for many U.S.A. states and other country sign names, which is a very nice reference for interpreters.
Quality, American Sign Language materials and resources such as the Signing Naturally series.
Signing Naturally
This is an excellent series!. The complete title is Vista American Sign Language Series, Functional Notional Approach, Signing Naturally, Student Workbook with DVD. Authors are Cheri Smith, Ella Mae Lentz, Ken Mikos. Publisher, DawnSignPress. It is an expensive set; it can probably be ordered from a local library system.

Vermont and Its Little-Known Border Town
... house, was interestingly enough purposely built in 1901 to straddle the border and boasts its unique location with a black piece of tape running through its interior.

Although Derby Line is a ...
Nous sommes ici! Overnight in Quebec
A nice campground after a 4 hour drive through Montreal - mostly easy driving, which is good, because we didn't know how much twisty, windy, up and down we would face the next day on "La Route des Sommets", and after crossing the border into Maine!
La Belle Province!
... it was touch and go whether we were even going to be able to make it. Lots of wind and rain. Anyway, it settled down a bit, so we all dressed accordingly and headed out. In the 10 or 15 minutes it took us to get there, the sun came out and it was great. At least until we all ate.. Then the rain came back. No problem as there were big canvas tents set up.The weather, regardless of the sky, was still humid the ...
Another day of skiing!
Went skiing with the Reidy's and their cousins. Jay Peak is definitely a must on a skiers list. Some sweet glade skiing for novices. Packed powder. 25 degrees. Barely a breeze. A couple of quads and a tram bought you to the top. Sitting on the Canadian border in northern Vermont, it's quite remote making for small lift lines. It was a four hour ride but the ride back was a bit more interesting with the impending ...

... with gorgeous fall foliage all around. This is duck festival season and there is a fete in town with duck featured at all the bistros and restaurants. Steve had it on Friday night and I had trout that was much like a thick salmon steak. Must have been a big trout! The temps are in the high 70's to low 80's. Today is supposed to be even hotter. But it is supposed to be only 59, with rain, tomorrow in Quebec City. ...

Vilanova is battling the cancer that has returned, meaning assistant Jordi Roura will take his place on the bench.
"These are three very important points," Busquets said.
"On a collective level, but especially for Tito. We have to win, because there is no alternative. It was negative news, we've had a lot of it, but in the end we are encouraged and that gives us strength to do well in the game.
"Hopefully we can get the three points and that will help us recover. Tito came with a very positive message and that's good for the team, it gave us energy."

Bareroot and potted - what' s the difference?
Rosa canina, Dog Rose, is the cheapest and most commonly used wild rose for use as a country hedging plants. This hardy native bush will grow pretty much anywhere except very wet sites. Rosa canina is good for hedges up to about 3 metres high. Browse all of our other varieties of Wild Hedging Roses here. Rosa canina hedge plants are only delivered bareroot, during winter (Nov-March). All our hedge plants are measured by their height in centimetres above the ground (the roots aren't measured).
Spacing a Rosa canina hedge: Plant Rosa canina hedging at 3 plants per metre, 33cms apart. You can also plant Rosa canina at 5 plants per metre in a staggered double row, with 33 cms between each plant along the row and 40cms between the rows. General description of Rosa canina plants: The Dog Rose, Rosa canina, is a fast growing native rose with a thicket of prickly stems that make a great secure hedge. It carries clusters of single, scented pale pink flowers in summer and small red hips in autumn that attract birds. It is best in mixed hedges, usually interplanted with hawthorn to help give it structure. We usually use it in our conservation hedge packs. Dog rose bushes by themselves usually won't get much bigger than 1.5 metres, but when they are pushed up against other plants in a hedge, they will reach 3 metres.
Read our full terms and conditions here.
Delivery: The basic delivery charge for orders of bareroot plants is £9.49 + vat, which increases to £12.55 + vat if you add any pot-grown plants, standard trees or fruit trees to the order. Because couriers sometimes experience delays, we schedule delivery by week, not by day. Therefore, please plan your planting day for the weekend at the end of the delivery week or for the week following delivery, at the earliest. You can choose the delivery week that suits you during checkout and we will email you the day before your plants are due to arrive.
Payment: We do not charge your card until we begin to prepare your order for packing.
Guarantee: If any plants die within a year, we will replace them. We only ask that you follow our planting & growing instructions and sent us clear photographs of the dead plants in situ, so we can help to make sure that the replacement plants succeed. You only pay for the delivery of the replacements.
Please note that our guarantee is void if there is a hosepipe ban in your area: your newly planted hedging must be watered in dry weather while it is establishing. The best way to water is very thoroughly every few days: at least once a week if there is no heavy rain.
Our nursery has been supplying container grown and bareroot hedging plants to gardeners, farmers and town planners since 1949. Our website started in 2003, so we do understand the concerns that you may have about buying hedging plants online. If any of your plants are damaged when they arrive or if you are otherwise not satisfied with your order after you inspect it, please repackage it and contact us. We will give you a refund or send replacements and send a courier to come and collect the unwanted plants.
You can order at any time and your plants will be delivered to you at the best time for planting.
We are a mail order nursery, specialising in hedging, trees, fruit, roses & shrubs. We deliver these plus a range of planting accessories across mainland UK

The worrying inevitability of EU intergovernmentalism
Publication date: Sep 12, 2012 03:33 PM
Sep 09, 2012 12:00 AM
End: Nov 15, 2012 12:00 AM
Olaf Cramme, Policy Network, 2 May
LONDON ‒ The verdict on Merkozy has already been passed. Even a few days before the final round of the French election the mainstream commentariat in Europe seems almost unanimous in its view that the somewhat unequal Franco-German tandem has simply not done enough to tackle the sovereign debt crisis in the eurozone. While the bulk of criticism is directed against the policy decisions and the narrow focus on debt and deficit reduction, resentment has also emerged in relation to the politics of the decision-making.
The widespread perception is that of Germany and France simply dictating the rules of the game and stitching up the course of action which the rest of the Eurozone, or indeed the EU, has to follow. Merkel's and Sarkozy's infamous walk on the beaches of Deauville back in October 2010 offered the perfect visualisation.
Their decision to charge the President of the European Council Herman Van Rompuy, instead of the President of the Commission José Manuel Barroso, to come up with a blueprint for reform of the economic governance structures, now dubbed the six-pack legislation, heralded a new style of EU decision-making: less traditionally centred on the community method; more intergovernmental, as if dependent on a directoire.
Unsurprisingly, many seem to hope that the likely victory of François Hollande will therefore lead to a return to the pre-crisis institutional equilibrium and the cosy world of Brussels. But hope is all there is.
If anything, the first round of the French election has made clear that EU politics-as-usual is no longer an option. The next President will have to respond to the fact that more than a third of the electorate supported candidates which reject outright the present trajectory and style of European policymaking. No growth pact, however targeted, ambitious or effective, is likely to change this deep-rooted antipathy in the near future. Hostility towards the EU has moved from the fringes closer to the centre, making it a critical variable in domestic politics.
The result will be more intergovernmental manoeuvring and reliance on diplomatic bargaining ‒ of the sort we have seen over the last few years. True, the controversial Fiscal Compact, if ratified in its present form, will give the European Commission a powerful role in policing the member states as far as their budgetary targets and compliance is concerned.
François Hollande may also be slightly less "Gaullist" than Nicolas Sarkzozy and, as the ECFR's Ulrike Guérot noted in an excellent analysis, his and Angela Merkel's ideas on institutional developments in the EU are not that far apart, despite all talks of an allegedly new German-French rivalry. But judging from the wider political trends across Europe, there seems a worrying inevitability for more, not less, intergovernmentalism.
Why is this worrying? Past experiences clearly suggest that leaving EU policymaking, let alone the enforcement of rules, predominantly in the hands of heads of government has its narrow limits. Non-transparent and ineffective backroom deals increase; unhealthy interest group alliances emerge at the expense of a common European interest. Worse still, it favours the perpetuation of a decentralised rules-based system which has so far underpinned EMU but which has proven so terribly flawed. What is needed instead is a proper central fiscal authority that makes sensible judgements on targets, limits and priorities.
Yet why is it inevitable? As it stands, intergovernmentalism is the only viable institutional response to the two forces currently dominating EU politics: the coexistent desire for greater democracy and participatory influence; and the reassertion of sovereignty, if not outright re-nationalisation.
Both forces, strengthened by the fallout of the global financial crisis, are of course pulling in rather different directions. This leaves the classical institutions of deeper European integration and the community method, the Commission and the Parliament, hopelessly overstrained, given their relative distance to popular sentiment. It also explains to a large extent why the EU has not yet managed to come up with a more coherent and decisive plan to tackle the eurozone crisis.
To be sure, this development should not come as a surprise. The delicate institutional set-up of the EU was always vulnerable to the slightest shock. In the past, politicians put significant effort into separating the democratic debate on policy content and substance from rules and procedures. A majoritarian view saw the EU as a case sui generis and exceptional polity in which major constitutional disputes had to be avoided for the sake of progression.
The more "extreme" positions – full-fledged federalism or a return to nationalism – remained in a minority. Now, however, this balance has been severely shaken with federalists and confederalists on the upswing. As the scholar Sverker Gustavsson has argued, both share the view that democratic accountability and actual decision-making should take place on the same constitutional tier: either at the national or at the European level. But how to reconcile theoretically irreconcilable positions becomes increasingly unclear – and a heavy strain on today's EU politics.
For those concerned with European integration, this calls for radical action and reform. The European Commission must regain its centrality and élan, but for this to happen it also requires far greater legitimacy. Ideas for electing its president certainly go in the right direction, but are simply not enough. We need to rethink the role, selection processes and accountability of all commissioners.
The directorates-general, that is the EU's administrative departments, need a more clearly and better defined remit that ordinary people can actually understand and approve of. Not least, the European Parliament must urgently look for ways of how it can assume proper popular representation, possibly by moving closer to and interlinking with national parliaments.
François Hollande and his ideas for reorienting Europe towards jobs and growth can usher in a welcome breath of fresh air. If only for this reason change in France is absolutely necessary. Yet on its own it won't achieve much. Our institutional response to the growing unease with the European project will be at least as important to the future of the Union.

We need more from monique fuentes!
The cock is to long for her, in the ass would be better for her.
there must be a "aggreement" between NA and M Fuentes to not "push" too much inside ... that is why he is restricted IMO
Damn that dude really packs some heat!
I feel sorry for him because it looks like he can't go all the way in and there probably aren't too many women [in the real world, not in the sometimes freaky porn industry] who can take all that without ripping something. Lol
