Asbury is best remembered for "Gangs of New York," but in his detective stories he swings wildly between gory horror story and step-by-step procedural.

Hi Robert…The one thing Desk Fee independent office do not have for their Realtors is National Advertising and Referrals. Referrals are a big part of Re/Max. In our City we have 25% overall share of the local market, in fact in some areas as high as 40%. Are we the largest real estate office..No. Other offices have as many as 25% more Realtors, are they 100% offices Yes(monthly Fee). Here these offices attract a lot of part timers and lower production Realtors. At Re/Max everyone is Full Time, which gives us a great market edge. Will our Market Change, Yes if the trent to slower Sales continues(10% of listing at the moment).
Cheers, thanks for your Post.

Internet cafes 'too difficult to define'
Joyce Ng
Most Popular
Officials have decided not to tighten control over internet cafes - despite complaints about noise, safety and suspected pornography, and warnings about drugs - because they are 'difficult if not impossible to define'.
The Home Affairs Department says a review found the existing voluntary code of practice was working well, although there had been 122 complaints about internet cafes in the past three years.
Without a proper definition, the bureau said, it could not introduce measures any more stringent than the code of practice, such as a licensing system.
'On one hand, if a narrow type of definition is contemplated, the effectiveness of any new regulations would be in doubt,' it said in a briefing for legislators. 'On the other hand, introducing a broad definition for internet computer service centres might also run the risk of catching too many businesses inadvertently, thus restricting business development.'
The Boys' and Girls' Clubs Association of Hong Kong called for a ban on children using internet cafes after midnight after a survey found those who visit regularly were more likely to take drugs.
The association's executive director, Lilian Law Suk-kwan, said the government should separate internet cafes for children and adults and issue different licences for them, as it does with video game centres. 'Net cafes are frequented by older peers who take drugs, or triad members who may influence kids,' she said.
The voluntary code of practice, issued in 2003, requires operators to notify the government when starting and closing down their business; to bar children under 16 after midnight; to filter pornographic, violent or gambling content; to comply with building and fire safety requirements; and to provide noise control and ventilation. There are about 219 Net cafes in the city, according to a police report in December. The bureau said inspections found no serious problems with compliance.
The complaints were mainly related to noise, fire and building safety, and suspected indecent content on websites or in computer games.
Samson Tam Wai-ho, lawmaker representing the information technology sector, said not all operators of internet cafes would oppose more regulations as 'some also want to improve the image of the industry and draw more customers'.
He said he would prefer a licensing system so that operators who were aware of illegal dealings inside their venues but did nothing could have points deducted and eventually their licences suspended.

sWallet - Secure Wallet
- December 28, 2014
( 78)
Secure and Remember your information with sWallet.
sWallet is a simple secure application that allows you to safely store all your sensitive data such as: bank account details and passwords on your phone. sWallet is also useful for remembering all those bits and pieces of information in one place that are difficult to remember otherwise.
sWallet is all about security. Many people still store their sensitive information under contacts, which can easily be seen if your phone falls into the wrong hands. When you use sWallet, your data is encrypted using the industry standard AES-256 allowing only you to access your data via a master password. In this way even if you lose your phone your data will still be safe. For extra security, sWallet doesn't store your master password locally on the device, but rather as a SHA-512 hash. In addition, sWallet self-locks after a timeout period and clears the clipboard to ensure your data is protected.
Online Dropbox Backup
sWallet provides an option to automatically backup your wallet to your Dropbox account. All communication to Dropbox is over HTTPS and the data itself is encrypted. So even if your Dropbox account is compromised, your data remains inaccessible without the master password.
Backup with Email or External Drive
sWallet provides an option for keeping data backup attached to your email. You can also save elsewhere. In order to restore, simply click the backup file and it will restore the backup data.
Needed it I needed a good spot to put combinations and special card numbers. Used paper before.
Really great for storing all of your sensitive data in one place. Easy to use and works perfectly. Love it.

Easy Banner Creator Free Edition1.0
editor's review
Easy Banner Creator Free Edition is a software utility, developed specifically in order to help you create animated or static banners.
The interface is simple and intuitive, thus allowing both experienced and novice users to find their way around it, without encountering issues. In addition to that, it consists of a menu bar, several shortcut buttons, options panel and a window in which to view your project.
This tool comes with a pretty large number of samples, which can be opened, analyzed and edited, so as to be sure you know how to use the program to its full potential.
There are a lot of options you can tinker with. For example, you can change the banner size, by inputting the width and height, or choosing some predefined measurements. The background can be customized, in the sense that you can use a solid color, gradient or an uploaded BMP, JPG, GIF, ICO, PSD, PNG and PCX file.
Aside from that, it is possible to change the font type, style, color and size, select another script (Central European, Western, Hebrew, Baltic etc.), as well as add shade to the text and animate the banner. When it comes to animation, you can modify the direction, number of frames and delay.
Projects can be saved to the HDD, in an EBC file format, or they can be exported as GIFs. The Help contents provided are not quite extensive, yet seeing how simple it is to use the app, they are not even necessary.
Response time is good, CPU and memory usage is minimal and we did not register any errors, crashes or bugs during our tests. To conclude, Easy Banner Creator Free Edition is a useful piece of software, when it comes to creating simple or animated banners.

Marshall Matt Dillon is responsible for keeping the law and respectability in Dodge City in this western action-drama. Gunsmoke captured the courage, character and spirit of the Western Frontier.
A TV series doesn't get a more auspicious launch than did Gunsmoke, the first episode of which, broadcast on Sept. 10, 1955, was introduced by none other than John Wayne ("Some of you may have seen me before"). In this historic prologue (included in this first-season round-up), Wayne hypes Gunsmoke as "honest, adult, and realistic." Of James Arness, starring as United States Marshal Matt Dillon, Wayne predicts, "He'll be a big star, so you might as well get used to him." Viewers did more than get used to him. "Mr. Dillon," as his sidekick Chester (Dennis Weaver) calls him, became a television icon who literally stood tall as a steadfast, incorruptible symbol of justice through two of America's most tumultuous decades. The Bravo network ranked him among TV's 50 greatest characters. Gunsmoke was television's longest running Western, and Arness's 20-year stint as Dillon would be matched only by Kelsey Grammer's Frasier Crane (and, by the way, Milburn Stone, who costarred with Arness as crusty, "vinegar face" Doc Adams).
For those who grew up with Gunsmoke's full-hour color episodes, this first season will be something of a revelation. The show is in black and white, and, at a half-hour, lean and gritty. Not that Dodge City is Deadwood, by any means, but its reputation as "the Gomorrah of the plains," as Dillon notes in the first episode, is well earned. Most episodes begin with Dillon setting the stage, Dragnet-style, like a frontier Joe Friday. "A man will choose his gun quicker to make a point than he'll draw on his logic," he ruminates at one point. "That's where I come in." Gunsmoke has its share of shootouts and traditional Western action, but the best episodes are gripping psychological dramas. In "Reward for Matt," the embittered widow of a racist Dillon was forced to gun down puts a price on his head. In "The Killer," Dillon exposes a gunslinger (guest star Charles Bronson) for the coward he is. Even an otherwise light-hearted holiday episode, "Magnus," in which Chester's backwards, backwoods brother comes to visit, is darkened by a twisted man gunning for "wicked" dance hall woman Miss Kitty (Amanda Blake), queen of the Longbranch saloon (and a close friend of the marshaljust how close is only hinted at). John Wayne was right: More than 50 years later, Gunsmoke remains "the best thing of its kind to come along." --Donald Liebenson

|In What Season Did the Hour-Long Programs Start?
"Gunsmoke" went to a one-hour format for the 1961-1962 season. CBS continued to air repeats of the half-hour episodes for a time under the title "Marshal Dillon", and the half-hour episodes are still sold to local stations and other buyers under that title. Sadly, though,... Read More

Just got called back to the audiologist to re-cast my ear impressions. Bummer! Here I was hoping I was over a week out, but I guess it's back to day 0. Pfffft!
I read somewhere in this thread that it takes 7-10 days to get the IEMs back from Westone. Has this been true for you guys? Is that business days or do I literally only have to wait one week's time?post #5404 of 55493/29/13 at 7:41am
Hello let me state I am a complete novice here. After hanging here for a while I have decided i am going to upgrade from w4 to ES5 how ever after reading about amps, Dac's, cables and a bewildering range of products which i feel am just starting to understand. my question is ,
I have 8500 songs on itunes which are all lossy so is it worth me looking set up a more advanced rig such as
imod > pico slim >ES5 or similar .
at the moment i have
Touch> ZO 2 > W4 and Smiling a lot.
As it seems unless your source is great every thing else is a bit pointless.
Also thanks for all your post's i think i have a new hobby.post #5405 of 55493/29/13 at 8:38am

The ES5 will improve with iMod+AMPs like JDS C421 or Pico Slim and dock cables like ALO 18AWG Pure Cryo or CXS willbe great add in chain to take real benifits of ES5 amazing soundquality. BTW if your music is 320KBPs to 192KBPS and it willbe still sound good with this setup.

Thanks that's very reassuring i will carry on with my planes,looking forward to the next few months.post #5407 of 55494/8/13 at 6:29pm
I called up Westone and asked the estimated turnaround. They said 7-10 (business) days from the time they receive the impressions. That means with shipping time back and forth, my ES5s should be here this week!
*fingers crossed*
edit 4/9: They just called and asked me to come in tomorrow morning. Happy Hump Day, Indeed.

As I recall, $50 for 3 days rush order, $75 for a 2 days rush and 120 for 1 day rush. However, getting the exotic materials means one extra day added to the previous time intervals.post #5409 of 55494/10/13 at 10:17pm

As it turns out, hump day wasn't so happy. The left monitor fit great, had an amazing seal, and sounded as well as I'd hoped. The right monitor, however, did not. I ended up back at the audiologist for a re-fit. She packed up the right monitor, the new impression, and my happiness and sent them off in a little box.
Yeehaw. More waiting. After having a brief listen, though, I know it's worth it!post #5411 of 55494/14/13 at 11:21am

Es5 is really not as good as some of you guys described here. I did refit twice and finally got a perfect seal but still I sold it because it gets blown away by universals like togo 334 and k3003... Even the ie800s sound better... Es5 's sound is too plain and boring, no coloration, not so transparent as well. 334 blows es5 away especially in vocals. The difference is as huge as u move from hd600 to he-6.Quote:Originally Posted by cooperpwc
I do not agree with this but it is a matter of taste. Comparing the ES5 to the IE800 and TG334, we are talking completely different sound signatures. The ES5 has more texture, layering, subtlety and grace. It is also the most balanced. The IE800 is a more forward, bold and exciting headphone but it is not especially subtle. The TG334 is somewhere in-between but with the least disciplined bass. I don't like the clunky form factor. (Edit: I should add that in my view each of these three has excellent sound quality in its own way.)
All things being equal, I might take the Private 335 over the ES5 but all things are not equal - it is twice the price. The ES5 is good value for a fine custom IEM.
Sorry I never saw these old posts before. The way "my" ES5 fit and sound to me puts them in the top tier of custom IEM or headphones. My ES5 are lively and energetic, rich and vivid, extended and impactful, and open and airy, and warm and everything else they need to be.post #5413 of 55494/20/13 at 11:12am

Normally we would be knee deep into the NHL season by now, but the puck will drop later this month on a new season thanks to the lockout, which ended last weekend. And the NFL playoffs are in full swing.
So what are you more pumped for -- the NHL's return, or the NFL playoffs?
The 2013 Baseball Hall of Fame nominees are in and there won't be any plaques added this year.
On Wednesday morning, Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III underwent surgery to repair torn ligaments in his knee. His recovery time is expected to be six to eight months, which means he should be ready for the start of the 2013 season. But will he be the same?
On Wednesday, baseball's Hall of Fame will announce the players who comprise the 2013 class of inductees—or they will announce that no one has surpassed the 75 percent voting mark required for induction. Which would be remarkable, given that some of the greatest players ever to step on a baseball diamond are on the ballot this year. So why the uncertainty? Steroids, of course.
The day that all college football fans have been waiting for is here: the BCS National Championship between the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the Alabama Crimson Tide.
Blake Shelton has dropped a few hints about who his co-host will be at the 2013 ACM Awards, but the secret won't be revealed until 25,000 people tweet a message from ACMCountry.com. But, that doesn't mean we can't speculate! Who do you think will join 'The Voice' coach and 'Sure Be Cool if You Did' singer onstage this spring? Below are our five favorite potential co-hosts, based on what Shelton says and who we'd like to see.
It seems as though coaches of all sports have a love-hate relationship with instant replay. The latest case involves Tad Boyle, the head coach of the University of Colorado basketball team.

Once again, a slew of NFL coaches and personnel fell victim to 'Black Monday,' the first day after the close of the regular season, when teams tend give unsuccessful or disappointing coaches the pink slip. Which is the least surprising this season?

"Breaking the barriers for the physically disabled" is a self help organization founded by Damodaran, a man who is testimony to the organization's name. In spite of a debilitating physical disability he works in one of the prominent slum areas of Chennai, India.Damodaran is not only training underprivileged children in their academics, he is also improving their lives from social and family perspectives.The project seeks to train these children in spoken English and help them in their academics.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
An estimated one billion people worldwide live in slums. Many of the children will drop out of school to become child laborers, forced by family situations. The Damodaran project will help these children to get back to their school, also help them in their academics. A major challenge lies in assisting them in overcoming their financial hurdles by setting up an income generation project, making them self sustainable.
How will this project solve this problem?
The project would provide: - English language training to the physically disabled children. - Help them in their academics. - Create awareness on health and hygiene in the slum area where the majority of the population still live under unhygienic conditions that result in serious health hazards such as malaria, typhoid,and dengue.
Potential Long Term Impact
These underprivileged children in the developing world are often denied equal access to education and technology. Our programs will break the invisible barriers to employment and equality of opportunity, giving them dignity and independence.

text: mental illness Kansas Proposal Would Create 'Receiving Center' Treatment Option For Mentally Ill By Dave Ranney • Sep 17, 2015 Dave Ranney / Heartland Health Monitor An informal coalition of Kansas mental health advocates is close to proposing legislation that could prevent hundreds of people with serious mental illnesses from ending up in jails, emergency rooms or a state-run hospital. "This has the potential to be one of those win-win-win situations that, frankly, in my 38-year career I can honestly say doesn't come along very often," said Bill Rein, commissioner of behavioral health services at the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services. Kansas City Producers Win International Radio Award With Story About Alzheimer's By Matt Hodapp & Esther Honig & Patrick Quick • Sep 15, 2015 Esther Honig This summer, more than 200 teams from around the world competed in KCRW's third International Radio Race. Participants were given the theme "Time Change" and 24 hours to produce a short radio story. KC-Area Business Leaders Tackle Mental Illness In The Workplace By Mike Sherry • May 8, 2015 Mike Sherry / Heartland Health Monitor Kansas City-area business leaders and health executives are kicking off an effort to make mental health a priority in the workplace. On Friday, the Mid-America Coalition on Health Care (MACHC) introduced the Right Direction Initiative, a free, ready-to-use communication campaign for businesses that want to improve the mental health of their employees. Johnson County 'Stepping Up' To Address Mental Illness Among Inmates By Mike Sherry • May 5, 2015 Johnson County Johnson County was one of four communities nationwide introduced Tuesday as initial participants in a broad effort aimed at reducing the number of mentally ill individuals in local jails. Dubbed "Stepping Up," the initiative is a combined effort of the National Association of Counties, the Council of State Governments Justice Center and the American Psychiatric Foundation. The other participants are Washington D.C., Miami-Dade County, Florida, and Sacramento, California. Ethics Professors: Religious Freedom Laws, Illness At The Workplace By Steve Kraske & Lisa Rodriguez • Apr 2, 2015 Indiana and Arkansas are in the news for controversial legislature aimed at protecting religious freedom. On this edition of Up To Date, the Ethics professors discuss when religious freedom infringes on other freedoms. Plus, what responsibilities do employers and employees have when it comes to illness, mental or otherwise, in the workplace? Guests: Osawatomie State Hospital Chaplain On Ministering To Mentally Ill By Steve Kraske & Lisa Rodriguez • Mar 9, 2015 For clergy, providing spiritual support in mental institutions can be difficult especially when some members of your congregation may not even be aware of who you are. On this edition of Up To Date, we talk to the chaplain at Osawatomie State Hospital on the challenges of ministering to the mentally ill. Guest: Rev. Jeffrey Yelton is the psychiatric chaplain at Osawatomie State Hospital in Kansas. KDHE Surveyors Sent To Osawatomie State Hospital By Dave Ranney • Oct 30, 2014 State officials on Wednesday confirmed reports that surveyors with the Kansas Department of Health and Environment were dispatched last week to Osawatomie State Hospital, and that the surveyors in turn summoned the Office of the State Fire Marshal. Sara Belfry, a KDHE spokesperson, said the nature of the surveyors' concerns will not be made public until after survey findings are reviewed by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, a process that's likely to take several days. Kansas Mental Health System Under Increasing Stress By Dave Ranney • Aug 18, 2014 www.kansasmemory.org / Kansas State Historical Society One day last month, Osawatomie State Hospital had 254 patients in its care — almost 50 more than its optimal capacity. The overcrowded conditions forced a few dozen patients, all of them coping with a serious mental illness and likely a danger to themselves or others, to be triple-bunked in rooms meant for two. Glore Psychiatric Museum Is A Missouri Mental Health Time Capsule By Gina Kaufmann, Sylvia Maria Gross, Matthew Long-Middleton & Christina Lieffring • Jun 19, 2014 Gina Kaufmann, KCUR On Thursday's Central Standard, we looked back at the history of intervention in mental health crises, going all the way back to the 19th century. The Glore Psychiatric Museum (formerly known as State Lunatic Asylum #2) captures both the treatments of the past and the controversies they sparked. Treatments in mental health hospitals once ranged from a "bath of surprise," which disrupted thought-patterns by dropping the patient into a shockingly cold bath, to lobotomies and fever cabinets. New Mental Health Crisis Strategy To Launch In Kansas City By Alex Smith • Mar 12, 2014 Alex Smith / KCUR Every day, police in the Kansas City metro area are inundated with calls to handle mental illness emergencies. "Usually more than one time a day," says Don Ash, sheriff of Wyandotte County, Kan. "Calls could come in from a family member. Calls could come in from the general public. From a business owner." Someone might be picked up for something as simple as loitering or trespassing, and even though it might clearly a mental health emergency, police typically have little choice but to take them to jail or possibly an emergency room. The State Of Mental Illness In KC By Matthew Long-Middleton & Jabulani Leffall & Claire McInerny • Dec 20, 2012 Mental illness is a problem in every community, but what resources and services are available in Kansas City? Blunt Says No To Gun Control, Blames Fed Health Programs By Dan Verbeck • Dec 17, 2012 Dan Verbeck / KCUR U.S. Senator Roy Blunt says badly administered mental health programs should be fixed as a remedy, rather than blame guns, for violence like the Connecticut school killings. ReShonda Tate Billingsley: The Secret She Kept By Andrea Silenzi & Jabulani Leffall • Jul 11, 2012 Tia Giles is pregnant, she's also suffering from a mental illness and her husband Lance must make the difficult decision of committing her to a mental institution to save the baby, his wife and their marriage.

The drive to Ile De Re from Vannes was pretty uneventful, Jim did the driving and we just made a quick food, toilet and petrol stop and then a quick food stop on the way. When we got to the campsite recommended to us by Si and Lorna they told us they had one pitch available as long as we were gone by Sunday. Perfect. We got set up and checked out the beach on our bikes. All was going well until Kath fell off as we were leaving to go home right onto a rock. ...

Follow the crack to another good ledge below an overhang.3) 8m. Move up under the overhang and traverse right to an easy finishing slope. © ROCKFAX

This year, 2015, Placerville Art on Parade is proud to be displaying banners on the light poles in this, our 11th year of Placerville Art on Parade. Our "2015 Banners on Parade" has 29 banners displayed on the light poles on Historic Main Street in Placerville through mid-October.
See more on the website dedicated to Placerville Art on Parade! Want to download the 2015 Banners on Parade brochure? Get it here!
You can order 2015 Banners on Parade Keepsakes here! Hurry...the deadline for ordering is September 1, 2015!
Please help our Community Art Project, Placerville Art on Parade!
Placerville Art on Parade is a self-supporting, community art project that promotes the arts in historic downtown Placerville. Every year for the past 9 years, a new exhibit of beautifully painted banners is installed on the light poles on Historic Main Street. After the exhibit, the banners are sold during a silent auction at the Placerville Art & Wine Festival.
But the total proceeds from the sale often leave the project short of the necesary funds needed for the next year's exhibit. Therefore, we are looking for donations to continue this artistic, community project. How can YOU help? Consider donating some money (minimum: $25) to our cause. Here are some examples of what your donation can do (and please feel free to donate more!):
Thank you for supporting the arts on Historic Main Street in Placerville! Your donation to Placerville Art on Parade (a charitable organization) is tax deductible (non-profit ID number 20-2230822). Note that you can also just write out a check to Placerville Art on Parade and mail it to Placerville Art on Parade, P.O. Box 2156, Placerville, CA 95667.
The Process
Artists from previous years (and interested new artists) are sent information-application packets early in the year. The artists fill out the applications and submit their designs in the early spring, spend about 6 weeks painting the banners (front and back), then they are judged by local art teachers. The winners (usually a 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 3 Honorable Mentions) are chosen on a day in late May at the local community college, then the banners are hung from light poles on Placerville's Historic Main Street.
On the same day that the banners are being judged, photographs are taken of each banner and a local graphic designer uses those photos to create the walking brochure. People can stroll on Historic Main Street and view the banners while looking at the information about them in the brochure.
The banners hang on their light poles from early June through mid-October. Then, they are taken down. They are displayed for people to view up close on Main Street during the Art and Wine festival on the 3rd Saturday in October and auctioned off (via silent auction) that same evening.
As you can imagine, it takes some money to do this. In addition to the small fee each accepted applicant pays to do a banner, in mid-summer during each "banner" year, we put out an order form for folks to order posters, post cards, bookmarks, magnets and note cards. The proceeds from the applicant fee, sale of banner items and the silent auction help fund future years and we have been lucky enough to have some local sponsors. However, we can use more funds to help expand this project. Please consider donating!

When Strategic Hotels & Resorts announced in August that it was exploring "strategic alternatives," so to speak, including an outright sale, it left many wondering who had the financial wherewithal to scoop up the luxury hotel company. Many speculated it might be a large private equity company or, perhaps, foreign investors but, in the end, it was, who else, but Blackstone Group LLC that agreed to acquire the Chicago-based REIT.

Our new "How to Study the Bible" series starts soon! Sign up today.
10:15 by God that the Lord might fulfill his word. The author points out that Rehoboam's reaction must be seen in the light of God's sovereign purposes. Ahijah's prophecy concerning Jeroboam (1 Kin. 11:29–39) was fulfilled by this turn of events. Divine sovereignty extends over the sinful actions of human beings (1 Chr. 21:1 note).
