When the 2011 Lancaster County Recreation summer swim team season rolls around and it's time to open the county pool, a new coach and pool manager will be in charge.
At the recent Lancaster County Sharks' swim team banquet, veteran coach Midenna Anderson announced her retirement from both jobs.
Filling the void will be a task.
Anderson has dedicated the last 15 years to being the Sharks' head coach. She also served as the pool manager.
It's a job she handles well, deftly balancing the task with a smile and needed discipline.
With only a few weeks of summer vacation left, the thoughts of parents and children alike are turning back toward school and all that entails.
For many, that means new clothes, backpacks and school supplies.
But for those parents who are are out of work or struggling to make ends meet, it just means one more thing to stress out about. If you can barely pay your rent, how will you afford school supplies for your children?
Lancaster County Council should initiate a program that would allow for nonviolent offenders to serve their time at home.
Those who serve their time through the program would have to wear electronic-monitoring devices that monitor where they are through GPS, or global positioning system, technology. The technology would allow authorities to easily keep tabs on those sentenced to home detention, as GPS technology would pinpoint where they are at all times.
Maybe you sat in the stands. Maybe you were a coach. Maybe your child or grandchild played on a team.
You got caught up in the action. You shouted instructions from the stands, cheered the players and questioned the umps' call.
You moaned the dropped ball, the swing that didn't connect and the failed stolen base attempt.
You felt the adrenalin rush of the home run, the clinched glove holding the ball and the slide that worked.
You dealt with the heat, rain and late games.
An Indian Land woman is hoping to get a referendum on the ballot in November 2012 that would let Lancaster County voters decide whether they want to OK the Sunday sales of alcoholic beverages at restaurants in the county.
We not only favor putting the referendum on the ballot, we also favor approving the referendum. We believe Lancaster County restaurants should be allowed to sell alcoholic drinks on Sunday if they want to.
Why not?
What's the point of restricting Sunday sales of alcohol at Lancaster County restaurants?
After about six hours of intense enemy fire on a Cambodian hillside, former U.S. Army Capt. John P. "Jack" Monahan knew his platoon could not hold its position. There was little food, water and ammunition left.
They would have to withdraw. They adjusted artillery barrages to cover their movement. The wounded Monahan led the survivors to safety several hundred yards down a hill while carrying a wounded soldier on his hip with one hand and firing an M-16 with the other.
They came to rest behind some huge tree stumps. That was May 19, 1970.
This letter is to address the online commenter "blond but not dumb." You know who you are, you went online June 9 and made some very stupid comments about my daughter on our letter, "Jaylen's family grateful for support."
Your comments were: "I very much got the impression that the mother was taking up for her boyfriend. How could a mother live with herself knowing that she allowed the child to be around that kind of environment. The little girl was so beautiful and she shouldn't gone through that situation."
I find two recent letters to the editor to be stunning examples of ignorance of history and just plain myth.
Rudy Schmidt consistently distorts history and wears the distortion like a badge of honor – to quote someone who I'm sure is one of his heroes – "There you go again."
Franklin Whittlesey Sr. is full of historic inaccuracy that I hardly know where to begin.
1. Where does one find the "fact" to prove Obama has "contempt" for the U.S. or its Constitution?

I have just transferred images from my offline version to an online version I uploaded it all but when I click on "folders" it just never finishes loading.. after around 5mins it just says "An error occurred while indexing your gallery.
Please check your server settings to solve this error: 500 (Internal Server Error) - Internal Server Error"
It seems when you have more than a few images (around 100)/ folders (around 10) it takes forever.. any work around for this?
I believe on my offline version I changed the timeout in my php.ini but thats not going to be possible for an online one.

The result of more than 5 years of efforts of river activists across India and Policy-makers of various State and National Water Policies, under the leadership of Raincatcher and Waterman, Magsaysay Award winner Dr. Rajendrasingh, here is a draft Right to Water Bill for States.
This 'Right to Water Act 2015' empowers the citizens and the local-bodies a right, and not a privilege, to discharge their responsibility of protection, conservation and restoration of all water bodies for enabling the right to equitable access and abundant quantity of quality water responsibly abstracted from the water cycle for wholesome sustenance and dignity of citizens and all life forms.
Which State's will see it prudent to deliver this legal framework to its citizens this year?

In the Eighties WordPress theme, is there any way to make the site Title and the Tagline different colors? Say, a black title and an orange tagline, or do they have to be the same color?
In the Eighties WordPress theme, is there any way to make the site Title and the Tagline different colors? Say, a black title and an orange tagline, or do they have to be the same color?
Hey there.
I don't have the theme installed (I looked at the demo site) so I don't know if there are any admin options for this, or a CSS area but if you want to change the colours you can do it with this CSS code:
.site-title a{
color: #000;
.site-description {
color: #FFCC00;
If for some reason that doesn't work you can pull the big guns with !important, but try to avoid this unless it's really needed. It's a handy tool, but it takes the CSS out of the natural order of things.
.site-title a{
color: #000 !important;
.site-description {
color: #FFCC00 !important;
There is a chance that the theme has a CSS field in the options, if not then you can make a child theme:
Or you can instead use a plugin if you like:
Have a fantastic day! :)
Is it also possible to change the font?
Hi Agile,
Hope you a having great day so far!
You can change the fonts too. There is few different ways depending if you want to use some custom fonts that you want to upload to the site, or use something like Google Fonts
But I will focus now on the fonts that should be available for every Operating System and browser.
This is the list that should be supported by every browser. I am saying "should" because this is not hard standard and it depends from the browser developer if they will support this.
Andale Mono
Arial Black
Comic Sans MS
Courier New
Times New Roman
Trebuchet MS
You can use any of these like this
.site-description {
font-family: Comic Sans MS;
Using the recommended methods in the Tim post - either a child theme or a plugin like this one - https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/
Let me know if this helps, or if you want to use custom fonts.
Hey Agile,
Forgot to mention about fallback fonts.
This is done in case when visitor is on your site and the browser he is using doesn't support the font you specified.
In such cases we use fallback fonts - preferably one or two more than the main one. That way if the first font is not found the browser will look for the second, and if the second is not recognized, will look for font-family. The last rule should be generic family like 'sans-serif', so the browser can show at least something similar to the font you intended.
To use fallback fonts your code should look something like this:
.site-description {
font-family: Times New Roman, Verdana, sans-serif;
Hope this makes sense.

Is there an article or something you can point me to on how to change the look of the buttons? 1) I want to make them smaller 2) I want to change the color.
Note: I added an "orange" color set in delightful-downloads.css, but it doesn't appear as a Color option when I click Add Download.
Note also, none of the color options seem to work. No matter what I select, the button color is always blue on my web page.

Anatasia Brow Wiz in Caramel is my go-to brow pencil but I've been enjoying this one. The pencil is soft but has great pigmentation. My only complaint is the lack of staying power but for the price, I can't complain.

This is a soft, non-waxy brow pencil with a small brush (not swirly) attached to the cap. It is a long pencil so should last well even with regular sharpening. Although I purchased the Light Taupe shade it is more of a dark taupe color. Much darker than the Beautique brand of Taupe I purchased at Sallys. Both are made in Germany which seems to do a nice job on brow pencils. Fortunately, it does not look as dark on brows as it appears in the pencil. I would repurchase if it were a lighter color.

A great and inexpensive eyebrow pencil! I picked this up on a whim from Walgreens, for I believe around $3. I was very pleasantly surprised and have been using it for about 2 months. The pencil a good blend of waxy and creamy, it holds hair in place and deposits color easily. The only thing I don't like about this pencil is I wouldn't call it a true taupe. I has yellow undertones, not gray like I was hoping for. It looks fine and I still use it daily, but once this runs out I will continue my quest for a true ashy eyebrow pencil.

The taupe color is outstanding in color, texture, and performance. HIGHLY recommend due to it having superior quality like that of over priced department store brands!
Color is a true neutral mid toned taupe similar to the Rimmel Hazel brow pencil. Maybe a little bit lighter but close.
I was told Milani and Jordana were manufactured by the same company, so quality is definitely there.

Overall rating: 4.7 :) Haha.
Price- 2.99 at Walgreens! Super cheap.
Packaging- Cant complain, dont bother me.
Repurchase? Yes!
Alright I first purchased this in Medium Brown which has a slight reddish undertone which worked for me when I had virgin dark brown hair with reddish undertones, its a smooth pencil you have to sharpen but that doesn't bother me. Its not too waxy but its not hard either, its the perfect consistency. The most amazing is how long it lasts! It lasts all day and I have very oily skin and also it colors areas that dont have hair. Which is amazing when I over tweeze and have a lot of sparse places that I pencil in and it looks great. It doesnt look "natural" but i mean it IS a pencil not a powder but I really dont mind that. I go from over tweezed, sparse, light black eyebrows to dark brown perfect arched eyebrows! The change is incredible. I sharpen maybe ever 4-5 uses, to get a nice point so I can shape my eyebrows before I fill in.
Then I lighten my hair to a caramel brownish blonde color and this color looked too fake and the reddish undertone to it didnt look well so I just use it as a lip liner for my nudes and it works and then I quickly purchased taupe. The downside is theres only three colors but if you fit in those three you should totally try it! You get a lot of product! Also it comes with a brush on the top which is SUPER helpful! I have gone swimming in this and has stayed pretty well! I have to say it stays better where it sticks to your skin and fades faster where its on your hairs. Giving it a 4 star, 4.7 rating because there isnt alot of color choices.
Edit: this truly gives me amazing natural or dramatic brows. This is the only pencil I would ever buy again for my eyebrows! I've been getting constant eyebrow compliments because of this truly remarkable pencil. Jordana, never ever discontinue this! I can't believe more people don't know about this, worth the price and more. 💯

I use this every day, and have no desire to upgrade to a more high-end product. The taupe color matches my dirty blonde hair and eyebrows nicely, and I always use the little brush that comes on the end to smooth out the product after I've filled in my eyebrows. The only complaint I have is the lasting power, as some has worn off by the end of the day. I think I paid 2 dollars for it at Walgreens. Good deal!

Although I love and use Jordana's Brow Powder Duo (check out my review) in light, the pencil in Taupe was too dark for my dark blonde brows.
The pencil had a good consistency, firm and not too waxy and the brush on the cap is a plus, also staying power was good.
Jordana pencil in Taupe is worth a try for light brown brows. There's also two other darker shades for dark brown to black.

I don't like this pencil as much as my MAC Fling, but it's still pretty good. I prefer Fling because it has a drier, more precise texture, whereas the Jordana pencil is more waxy/oily and can smear around a little bit and apply unevenly as I work it into place. I do like the soft color (golden taupe), and the texture is preferable to the too-hard Rimmel and the constantly-crumbling Maybelline pencil. The pencil is also a generous size with a brush on the end, and it's easy to find in my kit. I often have a hard time finding Fling because it's small and black. I'd say this brow pencil is worth the $2-3 it costs to try out, and I've been using it a lot since MAC pencils aren't cheap and I want to preserve mine.

I adore this shade--I am pink-toned & pale with chocolate hair and eyes. The brow pencil, Fabubrow Taupe, is an ash grey to mid-tone neutral brown shade that looks polished but never harsh on me, whether or not I have my hair natural (medium brown) or more dramatically dyed (natural black).
Another thing about the pencil formula I like is the waxiness--I don't even use eyebrow gel anymore now that this is in my essentials kit! It's also easy to blend and smudge, and lasts on me all day. A drugstore cheap-y gem!

I switched my blog at http://www.jimlynch.com to Trident. I've run into two problems though:
1. When I try to insert the following code for Advanced Poll into the left menu (just under the links section), it pushes everything way down to the bottom in IE. This code just displays the latest poll:
<li id="poll"><?php
include_once "/home/jimlynch/public_html/poll/booth.php";
echo $php_poll->poll_process("newest");
2. I still haven't figured out a way to make the header graphic clickable so that it goes back to the main page of my blog. Somebody posted links about it earlier but they didn't seem to work. Anybody have a clear way to get the top graphic clickable rather than have text on it?
Thanks in advance. Overall, I like Trident. I still need to tweak some of the fonts and text colors but it's working fairly well.

After sadly having to cancel our volunteer day in September due to rain, we were excited to be back at Water Street on a beautiful fall afternoon. We weeded the flower beds, swept the leaves, and picked up trash to leave the property looking pristine for the coming winter months. While picking up trash we found a few "treasures" amidst the plethora of cigarette butts. Some noteworthy finds included a squishy ball, pink high heel, ball of hair, and a cell phone (circa 1999)! Who knew picking up trash could be so interesting?
Christine is hard at work weeding the flower beds. Wait - are those weeds or flowers?
Dave and Charlie pause from their sweeping for a quick photo op.
Erica holds up our best find of the day - a cell phone!
Joe and Kylie demonstrate teamwork at its best!
What a great looking group of volunteers! We were all happy to be able to give back to an organization that does so much in our Lancaster community.
After a few hours of hard work, we cleaned up our tools and equipment. We were so glad to have the opportunity to help Water Street Rescue Mission for the second time this year and look forward to the next time!
The Water Street Rescue Mission is the only year-round emergency shelter serving Lancaster, Pa. The organization's mission is to end the cycle of homelessness through lasting, life transformation.
Which one is Jimmy Stewart?

Good morning, and welcome to a week for which we've been waiting quite a long time. The Eagles' rookies reported for training camp Sunday, and by the end of this week each of our teams will have held at least one training-camp practice. I begin my tour of the division's four camps with a stop in Albany to see the Super Bowl champion Giants on Friday and Saturday. It is a sign that the long, dull summer is nearing an end and that real NFL football looms around the next couple of corners. You are welcome to be excited. And to enjoy your links.
Philadelphia Eagles
The Eagles had hoped to have defensive tackle Mike Patterson back for the start of camp, but his recovery from January brain surgery is being watched closely by doctors, who have recommended he skip training camp and possibly sit out a few months for the sake of his own health. Obviously, the team wouldn't rush him anyway, since we're talking about potential brain injury here, but the Eagles have the luxury of being loaded at defensive tackle and can start Antonio Dixon, Derek Landri or first-round draft pick Fletcher Cox in Patterson's place.
Michael Vick isn't backing off last week's comments about the Eagles' potential to build a dynasty. Heck, he's not backing off of Vince Young's ill-advised "Dream Team" comment from last summer. Hey, look, you guys know how I feel about this, but I also think it's good that a team and its leaders don't care what the outside world thinks. Vick gets points for that. And while the only thing that matters now is whether he delivers on the big talk, he seems to know that, too.
Washington Redskins
One of the areas on which we'll have our eye when the Redskins open camp later this week is the tight end position. Mark Maske breaks down the questions facing Fred Davis, Chris Cooley and Niles Paul.
Another such area is the wide receiver position, where the Redskins have a few guys coming off of injuries and looking to use the coming weeks to show how healthy they are and convince the coaches they can be starters. Rich Campbell breaks down the questions facing Santana Moss, Leonard Hankerson and Josh Morgan.
Dallas Cowboys
Tony Romo made it clear last week that he was standing behind troubled receiver Dez Bryant and would do what he could to support him. Tim MacMahon thinks that should put to rest any questions about Romo as the Cowboys' team leader. The Romo-Bryant relationship is an interesting one. Bryant speaks of Romo in reverent tones, as though he'd follow him anywhere. Romo seems to understand the way the young players in the locker room view him, and that a guy like Bryant wants and needs to be led by him.
Tom Orsborn, taking his cue from Michael Irvin, thinks the Cowboys' priority needs to be helping Bryant, not deciding whether to cut ties with him just yet. Hmmm. Interesting take. Feels familiar ...
New York Giants
Veteran safety Deon Grant told his hometown paper he expects to re-sign with the Giants at some point during training camp. We have discussed this possibility here, and it obviously makes sense. The question is not whether the Giants would like to have Grant back, since they like him a great deal, but rather what role they have for him in their 2012 defense.
And no, this isn't about football, but I got a kick out of ESPNNewYork.com's interview with Michael Boley about his Call of Duty obsession. I guess who among us hasn't played a video game until the sun came up, and sometimes it's fun to see these guys as great big kids.

Since its inception, Eco Plastics Company has
been revolutionizing plastic and trying to do its part to save the
environment. Eco's founder, Marion Cosby, developed a biodegradable
plastic that her company is marketing to manufacturing companies
throughout the southeastern United States. After operating as a
private company for six years, Eco went public in 2009 and is
listed on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange.
As the chief financial officer of a young company with lots of investment opportunities, Eco's CFO closely monitors the firm's cost of capital. The CFO keeps tabs on each of the individual costs of Eco's three main financing sources: Long-term debt, preferred stock and common stock. The target capital structure for ECO is given by the weights in the following table:
Source of capital Weight
Long term debt 30%
Preferred Stock 20
Common Stock Equity 50
Total 100%
At the present time, Eco can raise debt by selling 20 year bonds with a $1,000 par value and a 10.5% annual coupon interest rate. Eco's corporate tax rate is 40% and its bonds generally require an average discount of $45 per bond and flotation costs of $32 per bond when being sold. Eco's outstanding preferred stock pays a 9% dividend and has a $123 per share par value. The cost of issuing and selling additional preferred stock is expected to be $7 per share. Because Eco is a young firm that requires lots of cash to grow, it does not currently pay a dividend to common stockholders. To track the cost of common stock the CFO uses CAPM. The CFO and the firm's investment advisors believe that the appropriate risk free rate is 4% and that the market's expected return equals 13% Using data from 2009 to 2012, Eco's CFO estimates the firm's beta to be 1.3.
Although Eco's current target capital structure includes 20% preferred stock, the company is considering using debt financing to retire the outstanding preferred stock, thus shifting their target capital structure to 50% long term debt and 50% common stock equity. If Eco shifts its capital mix from preferred stock to debt, its financial advisors expect its beta to increase to 1.5
a )Calculate Eco's current after-tax cost of long term debt,
b) Cost of preferred stock,
c) Cost of common stock, (I think this is right Current cost of common stock = 4%+ 1.3*(13%-4%) = 15.70%
d) Current weighted average cost of capital
(1) Assuming that the debt financing costs do not change, what effect would a shift to a more highly leveraged capital structure consisting of 50% long term debt, 0% preferred stock and 50% common stock have on the risk premium for Eco's common stock. What would be Eco's new cost of common equity? (Is this correct? 1. = 4+[1.3(13-4)]=15.7%
WACC with 50% debt and 50% equity= .5x6.9+.5x15.7= 11.3%)
2) What would be Eco%u2019s new weighted average cost of capital WACC?
3) Which capital structure %u2013the original one or this one%u2014seems better? Why? ( I put down ...Original as the answer because it costs less).

Canterbury farmer Sam Zino is well on the way to showing that
deer farming is a viable alternative.
The region's deer focus farm facilitator, Wayne Allan, said
Mr Zino had achieved most of his goals and had increased
production and profit at a time when the venison price was
Mr Zino and his brother, Mark, were selected as the North
Canterbury deer focus farm in 2011 for three years. At the
time, Mr Zino said he wanted to demonstrate that deer farming
was profitable.
''What Sam has shown is that if you're smart about it and you
take a planned approach then deer farming can be a highly
economic land-use option,'' Mr Allan said.
The Zino brothers run two properties near Hawarden, one on
the flat at Flaxmere, and the other on hill and downland
country at Kanuka Downs, farming deer, sheep and beef cattle,
and grazing dairy cows. The deer are Hungarian hinds mated
largely to a Wapiti sire.
Mr Allan said Mr Zino set goals over five to six years, when
first selected as the focus farm. Some had already been
achieved within three years, including reducing the death
rates of the fawns and drafting yearlings earlier and at
heavier weights. He was also well on the way to achieving his
target of 90% fawning to the stag from maiden hinds.
''He was getting 85% scanning from the yearling hinds when he
first started and improved to 93% last year and achieved a
scanning of 100% this year, which gives him a chance of
achieving the 90% fawning [to the stag].''
Mr Zino was due to tag and weigh the fawns at the end of last
month, with weaning set down for late this month, Mr Allan
''Then we will get some growth rates, which is quite handy.
In the past the growth rates started to drop off approaching
weaning, so it will be interesting to see how they go this
Mr Allan said Mr Zino had been weaning three weeks earlier
than he was three years ago and ''the weight is being held,
so he is three weeks better off''.
While his stint as the North Canterbury deer focus farmer was
coming to an end, Mr Zino was already looking to the future
and setting more goals for the next three years, including
improving the fawning of mixed-age hinds and fawn survival
rates, and further improvements in pre-weaning and
post-weaning growth rates.
- The final field day as part the three-year focus farm
programme will be held at the Zino farm late next month. Mr
Allan said the final field day would be an opportunity to
discuss what had worked well, what had not worked so well and
look at the farm action plan to achieve opportunities which
had been targeted for the future.

Consumer Prices Rising as U.S. Housing Stabilizes: Economy
Consumer prices rose in May by the most in more than a year, showing U.S. companies are gaining some pricing power as the economy strengthens, and the homebuilding industry stabilized after a first-quarter swoon.
The cost of living increased 0.4 percent, the biggest advance since February 2013, according to Labor Department data released today in Washington. Other figures showed builders broke ground on 1 million homes at an annualized rate after 1.07 million in April, the best two-month reading since late 2013.
The reports will be welcome news to Federal Reserve policy makers meeting today and tomorrow as the pickup in inflation lessens the threat of a prolonged drop in prices that hurts economic growth. Central bankers are projected to continue scaling back their bond-buying program, while an increase in interest rates is delayed until well into 2015.
"Inflation in the U.S. is in a sweet spot -- it's not too hot, it's not too cold," said Millan Mulraine, deputy head of U.S. research and strategy at TD Securities USA LLC in New York, who projected a 0.3 percent increase in consumer prices. "The disinflationary stress that we've had over the past two or three years has effectively ended. That's the big story here."
Treasury securities dropped, pushing the yield on the benchmark 10-year note up to 2.65 percent at 4:18 p.m. in New York, compared with 2.60 percent at the close yesterday. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose 0.2 percent to close at 1,941.99.
Survey Results
Last month's increase in consumer prices exceeded all estimates in the Bloomberg survey, which ranged from no change to a 0.3 percent advance. The median forecast called for a 0.2 percent increase.
Costs rose 2.1 percent over the past 12 months, the most since the year ended October 2012, after a 2 percent gain in April.
The number of housing starts last month was in line with the median forecast of economists surveyed by Bloomberg that projected a 1.03 million reading. April's rate was the strongest since November, the report from the Commerce Department showed.
Permits, a proxy for future construction, decreased 6.4 percent to a 991,000 annualized rate. They were projected to fall to a 1.05 million pace, according to the survey median.
Multifamily Permits
The drop was all centered in multifamily projects, which tend to be volatile from month to month. Applications to begin work on single-family homes, which make up the biggest share of the market, rose 3.7 percent to the highest since November.
A strengthening job market and a retreat in mortgage costs in recent weeks are helping support residential real estate following a lull in building in early 2014 when frigid temperatures prevented builders from breaking ground. Faster sales will prompt developers to step up construction, given supplies of homes on the market remain lean and property values are rising.
"Housing is going to continue to gather steam as we go through the balance of the year," said Brian Jones, a senior U.S. economist at Societe Generale in New York, who forecast 1 million starts. "If housing is better, more people are working. If more people are working, you have knock-on effects on other demand components. It's another oar in the water for the U.S. economy."
Core Prices
The Labor Department's inflation report showed that stripping out volatile food and fuel, the so-called core measure increased 0.3 percent, the most since August 2011, following a 0.2 percent gain the prior month. Economists had forecast a 0.2 percent advance, according to the survey median.
The core index increased 2 percent from the same month in 2013 after a 1.8 percent gain in April.
The Fed's 2 percent goal is based on the Commerce Department's inflation gauge that is tied to consumer spending. That measure climbed 1.6 percent in the 12 months through April, and May data are scheduled for release June 26.
Officials led by Chair Janet Yellen reiterated at their April meeting that long-term inflation expectations remain stable. In April, the Fed pared its monthly asset-buying to $45 billion, its fourth straight $10 billion cut, and said further reductions in "measured steps" are likely.
The pickup in inflation "is something that they should welcome," said Michael Pond, New York-based head of global inflation market strategy at Barclays Plc. "The underlying trend is definitely showing a modest pickup" in pricing power, he said.
Energy, Food
Energy costs increased 0.9 percent from a month earlier, while food prices rose 0.5 percent, the most since August 2011, today's Labor Department report showed.
Companies including natural and organic food producer Annie's Inc. are taking steps to pass some of the expenses on to customers as input costs rise.
"We expect further upward price pressure in organic wheat, dairy and other commodities in fiscal 2015 and we plan to implement appropriate price increases," John Foraker, the Berkeley, California-based company's chief executive officer, said in a May 29 earnings call.
The May increase in prices meant that hourly earnings adjusted for inflation dropped 0.2 percent for a second month, according to another Labor Department report today. Over the past 12 months, real hourly pay declined 0.1 percent.
The CPI is the broadest of three price gauges from the Labor Department because it includes all goods and services. About 60 percent of the index covers prices consumers pay for services from medical visits to airline fares, movie tickets and rents.
Wholesale prices decreased 0.2 percent in May, data showed last week. Import prices rose 0.1 percent last month following a 0.5 percent decline in April, according to a separate report released June 12.

Hetero Every Child Deserves a Mother and a Father…
posted by July 18 at 8:00 AMon
With this item, it may be time to officially retire this series of Slog posts.
A man who had been released from prison early for good behavior was convicted Tuesday of trying to kill a young mother and leaving her 5-year-old daughter to be eaten alive by alligators in the Everglades.
Harrel Franklin Braddy had befriended Shandelle Maycock and her daughter Quatisha. Maycock testified that Braddy went to her home in November 1998 and grew enraged when she asked him to leave.
He choked Maycock until she was unconscious and then forced her and Quatisha into his car, the woman testified. At one point, Maycock gained consciousness, grabbed the child and jumped out of the moving vehicle.
Braddy stopped, choked the woman again and put her in the trunk, she testified. Maycock never saw her daughter again. Prosecutors said Braddy then drove to a section of Interstate 75 in the Everglades known as Alligator Alley and dropped Quatisha in the water beside the road.
She was alive when alligators bit her on the head and stomach, a medical examiner said. Authorities found the girl's body two days later, her left arm missing and her skull crushed, prosecutors said.
You may now debate the legitimacy of these posts—whether they alienate and annoy otherwise supportive heterosexuals, whether they're gratuitous and grotesque, and whether I secretly wish that all these awful things would happen to my own child—because, Jesus, why else would I post this sick shit?
Oh, yeah: I post this sick shit because there are shitloads of people out there that run around insisting that all children need a mother and a father.

This is a charming cabin at an elevation of 4700' up in the trees. We have a wonderful location being only 5 minutes from golf, tennis and the pool as well as 2 minutes from the ski slopes. Yet...our road is very very quiet, with only three or four cars per day.
We spent 6 years completely refurbishing our Beech Tree House. We added a new fireplace room and new master bath and master bathroom.
We had all the decks rebuilt and the lower entry rebuilt. The driveway was black topped.
All the systems [ electric and water] were inspected and refurbished. We replaced all the kitchen appliances and all the light fixtures.
In 2012 we purchased all new linens, towels, beds bedding and,furniture. We had all new carpeting installed in the bedrooms in October of 2013.
This house is perfectly maintained.
The house was warm and comfy. Our family really enjoyed our vacation there. We saw deer right outside in the backyard every morning! We had family living not far from the house which was a plus. The owner, came over the next morning to make sure we arrived safely, which was very nice. I would highly recommend this home!
Hi these was the second time we visit this some house last year and could not wait to go this year.
I will probably visit this summer, it must be amazing.
House impressions, Very clean, well located, and I can help telling about the 3 Deer's that leave around the are, my wife even name them. cheers
Had a wonderful time staying in the "Tree House." The house is absolutely stocked with everything you need minus the food. They also supplied some delicious muffins, coffee, and tea. I was so glad we didn't need to pack extra linens, bedding, or toilet paper. And they even provided a nice selection of sleds which we used to slide down the driveway. Kids and adults both enjoyed that!! Plenty of room to accommodate 6 comfortably. Loved the charming fireplace and burned a fire every night (thanks for supplying the logs)
We were close enough to Hawksnest to take advantage of tubing (although, I don't recommend tubing unless you enjoy spinning all the way down the hill). We really enjoyed ice skating at Beech Mountain which was only minutes away. Next year, we plan to take a ski or snow board lesson!! Will definitely book the Tree House again.
Lovely house that met the needs of our group which included four adults and our dog. One of the best equipped kitchens we've had through HomeAway/VRBO, and having three full bathrooms with showers was a real plus. We enjoyed taking hikes nearly every day, with one trail just a short walk from the house. Very helpful homeowner.
Our family so enjoyed our stay in this house!!
The owner was so friendly and helpful with our situation! It made a great start to our vacation! The home is comfortable clean and with two great porches! The fireplace is beatiful but it was too hot to use......highly recommend to anyone needing a place to stay at Beech Mountain!

NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. (AP) - About 100 people braved the biting
cold to line up outside a Florida dentist's office offering free care.
Pasco County dentist Vincent Monticciolo holds the free clinic
every year. The first 500 people in line get a cleaning, filling or extraction on Friday.
Some people camped out while temperatures dropped into the 20s
in New Port Richey on Thursday night.
Some of the people in line said they had lost their jobs or dental insurance.

Weighing nearly 2 pounds (0.9 kg) each, including their
shells, and measuring about 15cm in length, the 67 snails
arrived from Lagos, Nigeria, in two plastic baskets with
paperwork describing them as being for human consumption, the
U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency said.
The molluscs appeared to be packaged as a personal shipment
and were marked as destined for an address in San Dimas,
California, about 50km east of Los Angeles, agency
spokeswoman Lee Harty said.
No attempt was made to conceal or smuggle the snails, the
largest such shipment ever seized at LAX, she said. But the
creatures are prohibited from entry because they are deemed a
highly invasive pest that pose a serious threat to US
agriculture, the environment and public health, the agency
According to Customs and Border Protection, the giant snails
can consume more than 500 types of plants, and will even
munch on the exterior of homes if fruits and vegetables are
not available.
They also can carry several parasites harmful to humans,
including one that can lead to meningitis, Harty said.
After they were intercepted by customs officials at the
airport on July 1, specimens were sent to a local US
Department of Agriculture lab and then on to USDA mollusc
specialists in Washington for further examination.
Experts identified the creatures as belonging to the giant
African snail species, known by the scientific name
Archachatina marginata. They also are commonly referred to as
giant African land snails, West African snails, West African
land snails or banana rasp snails.
Each of the molluscs, with striated brownish-orange shells,
can easily fill the palm of a person's hand. They can grow up
to 20cm in length and may live up to 10 years in the wild,
experts say.
The entire collection confiscated at the airport was
eventually turned over to the USDA, which disposed of the
snails through incineration, although no garlic or butter was
used, Harty said.

Category: baby name Pearl
By Abby Sandel, Appellation Mountain
Some weeks, the baby names in the news are aggressively modern. Rocket and Rebel, Ryder and Stryker. Girls can be James. While boys can't be Sue, there's no guessing if Kayden, Peyton, and Riley are boys or girls.
Factor in names borrowed from nature, colors, virtues, meanings, and the map, and it can feel like every parent-to-be is considering names that would be right at home in The Hunger Games. Welcome to the world, Ocean, Indigo, and Haven. May the odds be ever in your favor.
All of that novelty can make classic, even conservative names seem refreshing.
Little ladies and gentlemen dominated this week's headlines. They're names with history and roots, vintage revivals that are back in 2014, or will be back by 2024. Or 2054. And they'll always come back – eventually – because they're just that enduring.
By Linda Rosenkrantz
In most places, Spring—to use an overused phrase—has sprung. The snows of winter have finally melted, buds are budding, birds are chirping. Which means it's time to offer a seasonal menu of names—this time a multi-cultural mix whose meanings connote spring, plus names of ancient goddesses, and a few flowers and birthstones.
Amaryllis, the lovely spring-blooming bulb, is one of the more extreme flower names now beginning to be cultivated; others include Hyacinth and Daffodil.
Aviv and Aviva are male and female versions of a Hebrew name meaning 'springtime'; another variation is Avivi, which means 'springlike' and is also the word for lilac. (Tel Aviv , btw, means 'hill of spring'.) Aviva has long been popular in Israel and its two vibrant v's could work well here as another path to vibrant nickname Vivi.
There's more to February than roses and chocolates. It's also Black History Month plus the month that hosts Presidents' Birthday and Groundhog Day – and let's not forget Ferris Wheel Day and Polar Bear Day. Whether you're naming a baby this February or just looking for more ways to celebrate, here are ten ideas themed to the second month of the year. And none of them are Cupid.
Amethyst – The birthstone of babies born in February was worn by ancient Romans and Greeks in the belief that it protected against intoxication. Today, Amethyst can be used as a girl's name, along with Violet, the official flower of February. Another gem name associated with February is Pearl, as the Finnish call February The Month of the Pearl, a much lovelier designation than the English nicknames mud month or kale month.
Brady – Matthew B. Brady, celebrated American photographer of the 19th century, took the first photograph of a U.S. President in Office in February 1849 and left a powerful legacy in documenting much of the Civil War. Today, Brady is a popular Irish boys' name.
By Abby Sandel of Appellation Mountain
The world is awaiting a royal birth announcement, and I'll admit I'm unreasonably excited.
But it is different this time, isn't it?
A high-profile arrival usually comes complete with a headline-grabbing given name. There's North and Knox and Rainbow Aurora, Apple, Hattie and Everly, Zuma and Bronx Mowgli.
Some are prime for imitation, and catch on with non-Hollywood types. Others are unlikely to be used by anyone other than celebrity parents, and while unusual names are more accepted than ever, Suri has yet to crack the US Top 1000.
This time we know one thing for certain: the prince or princess won't have a wacky name. I suppose Kate and William could slip in a quirky Anglo-Saxon royal as an extra middle – Elswith or Athelstan or Godwin. But the couple doesn't seem likely to go that route.
Instead, we'll be celebrating an evergreen classic of a name, the kind that we too often ignore.

Kirtan Ghoxa
The Kirtan Ghoxa (Assamese: কীৰ্তন ঘোষা) is a collection of poetical works, primarily composed by the medieval saint Srimanta Sankardev meant for community singing in the Ekasarana religion. Its importance in the religion is second only to the primary text, the Bhagavat of Sankardeva.
The text of the kirtan ghoxa consists of twenty six sections and thirty one kirtans (or narratives of Krishna).[1] The kirtans were originally compiled into a single text by Ramcaran Thakur, the nephew of Madhabdev. All the kirtans were composed by Srimanta Sankardeva, except for one by Ratnakar Kandali and another by Madhabdeva. Two of Sankardeva's kirtans were later additions to Ramcharan Thakur's compilation. In some versions, there is an additional kirtan composed by Sridhar Kandali.
Each kirtan consists of a ghoxa or refrain followed by a number of verses written in different meters.
The Kirtans[edit]

- Pasanda mardana
- Namaparadha
- Dhyana Varnana
- Ajamilopakhyana
- Prahrada carita

Amy MacDonald to play Irish dates
Scottish singer-songwriter Amy MacDonald pays a visit to our shores for two dates this May.
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 17 Apr 2008
Amy MacDonald's upward career trajectory continues on May 27 when she plays Dublin's Academy, and the Mandella Hall, Belfast the next day. Tickets for the Dublin show are €23.
As anyone who caught her packed Whelan's show in February will know, the 20-year-old from Bishopbriggs near Glasgow has a wicked set of pipes and an even wickeder sense of humour.
Last week found MacDonald keeping extremely good company as she joined David Gray, The Who, Joan Armatrading and Newton Faulkner for the latest Teenage Cancer Trust gig in the Royal Albert Hall.

What if Massons and Illuminati are the good guys?

If they are masters of the occult it would be safe to assume that they've already discovered that surving demons or satan is very primitive occult practice. According to my theory only small minority of their low ranking members do that. The reason some of them do that is because this is the easiest way to become part of the occult world although it is also the most dangerous one. High ranking members think they are Gods and therefore there is no need for human sacrifice or worship of any kind. What if their chip implant program will help to illiminate all domestic violence? That would be a good thing don't you think? Also, no more murders, rapes or theft. Everything you do is recorded so who would be so crazy to break the law?
From one of my previous threads
The point that is really difficult for me to accept is that to create their NWO in the future ( not too distant ) a lot of people will have to suffer right now !
They are creating Chaos , famine , fear and controlling and banning medicines that could alleviate suffering and even cure !
This is not acceptable by any standards of morals or ethics , but they ( The Masons ) are blinded by their arrogance !
They think that they know better , and hence have all the right to steer humanity in the direction they chose .
I believe that a great majority does not believe in satan , and that he is the great deceiver ; therefore under the guise of Goodness they are creating, and nurturing Evil .
The road to hell is always paved with good intentions !

In 1000 words or less explain how the RC hobby has been a positive factor in your life:
This hobby has helped me in countless ways. Over the years, I've taught myself all about electronics, from current draw of electric motors to how circuits work in general. I've had to teach myself how to solder properly and have become a master at it, among other skills such as sculpting, programming, or the art of flying. All of these have impacted my life in the most positive ways possible and have leaked into other aspects of my life. For example, the craftsmanship skills that I've learned from this hobby have inspired me apply them to my passion for music by creating my own guitar from scratch as well as a few guitar effects pedals. Aeromodeling has also peaked my interest in photography because of how the two can be merged together for amazing results. Aerial photography intrigues me very much, and therefore has led me to learn far more about cameras and photography than I ever thought possible. In school, the skills that I've acquired through aeromodeling have also significantly helped me. Not only have they helped me excel in all of my engineering classes because of how I am able to seamlessly carry out the design process, but they have also led me to success in many science fair competitions. My most recent project was on the effect of the Kline-Fogleman airfoil on the thrust of a propeller. This project earned me special recognition at a county level from Wyle Aerospace, in which they awarded me their outstanding aerospace cash award.
By far the most important way this hobby has shaped me, however, is how it has guided me to where I am now. Before learning how to build and fly my own models, I had no idea where I as going to go with my life. Now, I'm getting ready to go off to college for aerospace engineering and am ready to pursue a career that enables me to do what I love to make and study things that fly. I couldn't be happier with my ambitious life path that aeromodeling has led me towards.
Explain what motivates you to pursue a STEM degree? What are your educational goals and your long-term professional goals. How do you see yourself using your STEM knowledge in the future?
I didn't fully appreciate science or chemistry kits when I was younger. They were never adequate, never let me learn and create the awesome things I knew could be possible. I looked at books about how chemistry did what it did and why it did what it did, but they never explained or let me apply what I was learning. This or that is said of chemistry and electricity, but how I wondered, could I use that? What are the rules that would allow me to make something new?
Much has changed since then: I learned of the wonders of quantum mechanics and physics, led a FIRST robotics team, and I'm just beginning to experiment with my own robotics at home. Yet in all of this, I still want to explore, to discover more and create something new. I want to spend my life, my career, learning these rules of science and math and creating something new and ingenious.
My educational goals right now are to double major in physics and mechanical engineering at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. I am tentatively looking at acquiring a masters in physics. In the short term, I plan to participate in the UMNs Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) and complete internships to learn more about the field and better guide my education. While in college I will get my CAPM certification and afterwards I plan to get a PMP certification.
In the future, I want to create. I will lead a research/development team to create new, great, and ingenious products, machines, and results with my team. More importantly, in the long term I want to use what I learn to teach kids about robotics, chemistry, physics, engineering, and more. I will mentor kids in teams such as FIRST robotics.
