Borneo: what and where?
Straddling the Equator, the steep forest-clad mountainsides shrouded in mist epitomise the "Land of the Clouds" – a result of the combination of highland terrain surrounded by sea, and the hot, damp climate. The perpetual warmth and moisture makes Borneo incredibly verdant, with nearly 11,000 species of flowering plants and more than 700 species of trees. Numerous large rivers, most of them chocolate brown in the lower stretches, flow from Borneo's mountains into the sea, many carving mysterious valleys.
The world's third-largest island (after Greenland and New Guinea) lies in the South China Sea south-west of the Malay Peninsula and Singapore, south-east of the Philippines and north of the Indonesian island of Java. It straddles the Equator, and has a hot and humid climate.
Three countries claim a share of Borneo. Seven-tenths is taken up by the Indonesian state of Kalimantan. The majority of the north of the island belongs to Malaysia, split between the states of Sarawak (to the west) and Sabah (to the east). Tucked between these two areas is the smallest and richest constituent, the Sultanate of Brunei Darussalam – better known simply as Brunei.
A brief history of Borneo?
The island is thought to have been inhabited for over 35,000 years; perhaps 3,000 years ago, foreign traders began to visit, but it was five centuries ago that more significant changes came about.
The first Westerners to arrive were the Portuguese in 1521: the Spanish followed soon after. The Dutch came at the beginning, and the British in the middle, of the 17th century. Islam and Christianity also arrived.
A number of settlements were established along the coast, most notably Brunei. As elsewhere, the European superpowers began to wrest control from the local rulers: coastal Borneo roughly became divided between the British (to the north) and the Dutch (to the west, south and east). But the vast, inaccessible heart of the island was largely unaffected – not least because of a certain reluctance to explore by outsiders wary of headhunters.
In 1840, James Brooke, a British army officer, arrived in Borneo and helped the Sultan repress rebel tribes. The following year, in recognition of his services, he was made Rajah and established Kuching as capital of Sarawak. Known as the "White Rajahs", Brooke's descendants continued to rule Sarawak until the Japanese arrived in 1942 and occupied Borneo until 1945.
After the Second World War, Kalimantan separated itself politically from the rest of the island and became part of Indonesia in 1963; the same year Sarawak and Sabah broke free from British rule and joined the Federation of Malaysia. Brunei became independent in 1984.
Borneo offers dramatic scenery combined with rare wildlife: including freshwater dolphins and crocodiles, proboscis monkeys, sunbears, macaques, lizards and even pygmy elephants. Star of the show for most, though, is the orang-utan (see panel). The island also has ancient tribes, a wide range of adventurous activities – and fascinating relics of a colonial past.
Where do I start?
Most accessible from the UK is Brunei, which has daily direct flights on Royal Brunei from Heathrow to the capital, Bandar Seri Begawan. The main attraction of the city is Kampong Ayer, a "village" of 32,000 people, built entirely on stilts in the Brunei river. The Kampong Ayer Cultural and Tourism Gallery (KACTG) – which aims to enhance the visitor's experience – opened two weeks ago. And don't miss the city's two great mosques: Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah and Omar Ali Saifuddin. You can visit them Saturday-Wednesday (non-Muslims are not permitted on Thursday and Friday) from 8am-midday and 2-3pm, 5-6pm and 8-9pm; admission free.
West of the capital on the coast is Jerudong, the site of the forlornly half-closed Jerudong Theme Park as well as the opulent Empire Hotel & Country Club (00 673 241 8888; theempirehotel.com), Brunei's most prestigious accommodation. It has sumptuous rooms, a fine pool, golf course, spa and many other activities. A double room starts at a reasonable 213 Singapore dollars (£90), including breakfast.
The most regal address though is the Istana, the royal palace overlooking the capital where the Sultan and his wife open the doors to visitors for three days during Hari Raya, which marks the end of Ramadan (this year 21-23 September). About 30,000 devotees queue up each day to shake hands with the royal family and eat at the palace every year (including Jenny Bond, who reported on the event for The Independent Traveller: tiny.cc/et42g).
Some colonial heritage?
Aim for Sarawak, the nearest part of Borneo to the UK, with easy connections at Kuala Lumpur on Malaysia Airlines (0870 607 9090; malaysiaairlines.com) and Air Asia (0845 605 3333; airasia.com).
Sarawak is the largest of Malaysia's 13 states. Be sure to visit the Sarawak Cultural Village (00 60 82 846 411; scv.com.my), a living museum where seven authentic houses have been built in the shadow of the mountains.
You'll enjoy the experience more if you've visited – or better still, spent a night in – a real longhouse. Part of the adventure is getting to these wooden houses built on stilts on riverbanks. Longhouse visits can be arranged by local tour operators, but some longhouse experiences are more authentic than others, so follow recommendations from other travellers or use a company such as Borneo Adventure (00 60 82 245 175; borneoadventure.com).
Also worthwhile – especially for keen hikers – is a visit to Bario (reached by daily Twin Otter flight from Miri on Malaysia Airlines: 0871 423 9090; malaysiaairlines.com.my). In addition to great hill trekking, the environs of this small village – famous throughout Borneo for the quality of its rice – are home to members of the Kelabit tribe.
Beach bliss?
Aim for Sabah's capital, Kota Kinabalu, which has the most developed tourism infrastructure for gentle beach life or more active watersports. Travelmood (0800 011 1945; travelmood.com) offers a week at the five-star Shangri-La Rasa Ria Resort in Kota Kinabalu, plus return flights with Royal Brunei from Heathrow and transfers, for £899 for departures next month.
Kota Kinabalu is also a base for wilderness exploration. Pulau Tiga is a volcanic island reached by road and then boat from Sabah's capital. It was used as a location for the American reality television show Survivor, which has placed it on the tourism mainstream.
More uplifting is to climb Mount Kinabalu. South-east Asia's highest peak (4,095 metres) can be conquered by any reasonably fit person. The ascent of the 14km trail is more of a steep trek than a climb, but there are a couple of tricky bits – including briefly edging around a precipice with the help of a fixed rope.
To climb the standard route requires a two-day trip. The initial walk takes about four or five hours from the starting point (the Timpohon Gate) to the Laban Rata hut, a compulsory overnight stop. Most people then set off at between 2am-3am for the ascent to Low's Peak, with the aim of arriving to see the sun rise.
The last 2km of the trail is steep and slippery, especially in the dark: when you reach the top, the glow of your achievement may be dimmed as it's not unusual for cloud cover to obscure the (otherwise) incredible view of the whole of the entire north-east tip of the island of Borneo.
The wildest side?
Kalimantan is the place for the adventurer. Balikpapan, in the province of East Kalimantan, is the region's main gateway, with air and sea connections to Jakarta and other points in Indonesia. The province's Mahakam River is home to freshwater dolphins.
Pontianak (bang on the Equator and best explored by boat along its many rivers) is West Kalimantan's major urban centre. Central Kalimantan, largest of the four provinces, occupies an area equivalent to England and Wales combined, with mountains to the north and swampy lowlands to the south. The major town is Palangkaraya (renowned for rattan handicrafts). South Kalimantan is divided by the Meratus mountains with mountains and thick forest to the east and lowlands and waterways to the south. Banjarmasin – known as "river city" – is the biggest town, and has a fascinating floating market.
If you go, you'll find remarkably little tourist infrastructure, but if you want to disappear into the jungle for months or really experience somewhere off the beaten track this isn't a bad place to start.
An organised adventure?
The British Army trains in Borneo's mountains and jungles V C to hone their survival techniques, but the island also attracts parents looking to give their kids a different kind of holiday experience. Peregrine Adventures (01635 872 300; peregrineadventures.co.uk) offers a 10-day Orang-Utan-Go family tour including wildlife encounters, cycling, dips in hot springs, a visit to the Sepilok Orang-utan rehabilitation centre, a river cruise and three days at the beach. Prices are from £888 (adult) and £598 (children aged six to 11 years): flights are not included.
Naturetrek (01962 733 051; naturetrek.co.uk) offers wildlife and birding tours of Borneo including a 21-day Mount Kinabalu & the Rainforests of Borneo trip. Prices (from £3,795) include return flights, hotel and lodge accommodation, most meals and expert guides.
Can I tread gently?
Governments and tour operators in Sabah and Sarawak have begun to get the message about conservation and, to a degree, "responsible tourism". In 1991 the Borneo Project (earthisland. org/borneo) – based in Berkeley, California – was established to assist the island's indigenous peoples to regain control of their ancestral lands.
Some larger local tour operators work with villagers and discuss how tourists can experience and learn about the tribal lifestyle without too much disruption or corruption of traditions. Several organisations have projects in Borneo that overseas volunteers can join, many concerned with nature conservation.
Much new accommodation has been planned to be environment-friendly – a good example is Exquisite Borneo Villas' Kudat Riviera luxury villa estate resort in Sabah, due to open in the autumn. It will offer a 6km stretch of beachfront villas, each with its own butler. For more details, call 00 60 88 249 276 or visit exquisiteborneovillas.com.
What will I eat and drink?
Spicy Malay (and to a lesser extent Chinese) cuisine dominates. Seafood is excellent, especially in coastal Sarawak and Kota Kinabalu. Laksa – chicken, egg and beansprouts in a coconut and tamarind soup – is a Sarawak speciality. Jungle fern, delicious stir-fried, is ubiquitous, and there's a huge array of tropical fruits in the markets. Most hotels won't allow guests to take durians or mangosteens to their rooms, the former because of their foul odour, the latter because their juice stains badly.
On the liquid front, Ian Dury paired the wilds of Borneo with the vineyards of Bordeaux in his 1979 classic "Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick". But tuak, the Malaysian Borneo's local and sometimes very potent rice wine is very much "acquired taste" rather than "premier cru". Most visitors stick to beer.
Brunei is largely dry, with patches of dampness: the national airline allows you to bring your own alcohol on board, as does the odd hotel bar – so bring some duty-free.
Jungle VIPs: The wild men of Borneo
One of the big draws for visitors to Borneo is the chance to see the world's second-largest non-human primate, Pongo pygmaeus, better known as the orang-utan – Malay for "man of the forest". There are suggestions that illegal logging, which razes lowland forests to make way for vast plantations of oil palms and destroys the orang-utan's habitat, may mean that the "wild men of Borneo" will be extinct in the wild within a decade.
The best chance to see the big orange-brown haired apes are at centres in Sepilok (25km from Sandakan in Sabah) and Semenggok (about 40km from Kuching in Sarawak) where orang-utans that have been rescued from captivity or are being relocated from deforested areas are rehabilitated for their return to the wild.
Stay at the relatively new, tranquil Paganakan Dii Tropical Retreat (00 60 89 532 005; paganakandii.com), a contemporary version of traditional wooden stilt-house living which costs 98 Malaysian ringgits (£17) per double including breakfast.
The Sepilok Nature Resort (00 60 89 673999; sepilok.com) offers chalet-style accommodation for MR285 (£49) including breakfast, and the clean-but- basic Sepilok Jungle Resort (00 60 89 533031; sepilokjungleresort.com) has air-conditioned rooms (from MR105 (£18) including breakfast) and dorms with fans from MR28 (£5) per person including breakfast.
At the Samboja Eco Lodge (00 62 542 71 11 484; sambojalodge.com) in East Kalimantan, former wasteland has been restored and replanted under the auspices of the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation and is now home to more than 100 orang-utans.
Travel essentials: Borneo
Getting there
The only direct flights between the UK and Borneo are on Royal Brunei's flights (020-7584 6660; bruneiair.com) between London Heathrow and Bandar Seri Begawan. Flights refuel at Dubai (where stopovers are available). Through discount agents, you can get a return ticket to the Brunei capital for about £650. The airline also offers connecting flights to Kuching or Kota Kinabalu – perversely, fares to these two destinations are sometimes cheaper than a ticket just to Bandar Seri Begawan. Royal Brunei also offers Bandar Seri Begawan as a stopover on its flights between Heathrow and Australia or New Zealand.
The other main approach is via Kuala Lumpur, reached on Air Asia (0845 605 3333; airasia.com) from Stansted and Malaysia Airlines (0871 423 9090; malaysiaairlines.com) from Heathrow. Connections are frequent to Kuching, Kota Kinabalu and Sandakan. Malaysia Airlines often offers good deals for those wishing to take a side trip to Borneo from Kuala Lumpur en route to or from Australia or New Zealand.
Getting around
There are relatively few roads. The main highways are reasonable, though ferry crossings are frequent – with checkpoints near all borders. You can hire a car, but most road transport is by long-distance taxi or bus. Buses run daily between Kuching and Pontianak (Kalimantan).
Sabah has a limited railway system with one working line, from Tanjung Aru to Beaufort and Tenom. There is talk of the possibility of a TransBorneo railway, but don't wait on the platform just yet. There are numerous ferry services, some more official than others, on rivers and from the mainland to nearby islands. Safety standards can be questionable. If time is short, consider flying – Malaysia Airlines has the best network.
More information
Tourism Malaysia (020-7930 7932; tourismmalaysia.gov.my) can provide information on Sabah and Sarawak. Brunei and Indonesia have no representation in the UK, but tourismbrunei.com and my-indonesia.info should help. Bradt's Borneo: Sabah, Sarawak & Brunei by Tamara Thiessen is an invaluable guide (£17.99).

I guess you can start with me, since I am a self-proclaimed expert on many
things. But the debate is not about mono or multi culture in general, it is
about hostas. I know what it does to the soil to plant and harvest cotton on
the same field every year, what I don't understand is how a garden of hostas
suffers from a lack of companion plants.

- I've been a supporter of craft brewing since I turned twenty one. Back then, there weren't anywhere near as many options as there are today. I became the chef of a micro-brewery in St. Charles, IL in 1999. It was then that I really got interested in pairing food with beer. After a few years, I moved to CO and really got into the craft brew scene at its heart, often making trips around the state to play disc golf and visit breweries. My wife and I moved to MT after the tragic death of our first child. (born without a thymus in her thyriod gland) While living in Missoula, I got spoiled, having four breweries within 20 minutes of my house. We moved back to CO last Aug. and I kept craving Double Haul from The Kettlehouse Brewery. My friend Roger had bought some gear from his friend who was moving to DC and suggested we try a brew. I'd been thinking about trying for the last ten years, so I said sure. My culinary background helped me feel comfortble tweaking recipes and now writing my own with good results. I just passed 50 brews since October, 2011. edit As of March 2014, I'm up to 120 brews and going strong!

Residents with a house valued at $227,000 will pay $28 more a year in property taxes, under a budget approved Tuesday night by the Village Board.
That amount reflects a 1.8 percent increase in the tax rate. This year's rate was $6.94 per $1,000 of equalized value; next year, the rate will be $7.07.
The levy supports a 2012 spending plan of $7.9 million, an increase of 2.5 percent over this year's budget of $7.7 million. Property taxes, for village purposes, will increase by 4.8 percent, from $4.7 million this year to $5 million next.
Because state aid is declining, Village Board member expressed dismay that assuming added fiscal responsibility would negatively impact taxpayers.
Case in point: The state has reduced its recycling funding to the village by 35 percent. The result is an 11 percent increase - to $193.74 a year - in refuse collection fees homeowners would pay.

With many moves in the offseason and training camp quickly approaching, it looks like the Baltimore Ravens are moving in the right direction for a successful 2014 season.
Many of those moves involve letting go of players and bringing up newer ones to replace. That is the case with Kyle Juszczyk. Earlier in the year, the Ravens released starting fullback Vonta Leach, now they must look to Juszcyk to fill the role. The, 6-foot-1, 248 pound second year player was a stand out at Harvard; however, he hasn't always been a fullback. In fact, some consider him the most versatile player the Ravens offense could have this year.
The 2012 Ivy League Offensive player of the year was drafted by Baltimore in the fourth round of the 2013 NFL Draft. He played tight end and slot receiver during his four years with the Crimson, ranking sixth overall on Harvard's all-time receptions list with 125 catches for 1,576 yards. Additionally, Juszczyk's 22 touchdown receptions put him as the 12th best in Ivy League history and his 15 receptions against Princeton in 2012 are the second most by a Harvard player in a single game in school history. He was also a two-time first-team All-Ivy League player in 2011 and 2012.
Juszczyk's college stats are impressive and the Ravens are excited to see what he can do when the pads are on later this summer. His rookie campaign with the Ravens was quiet. Juszczyk was strictly a special teams player with five recorded tackles and no catches or carries, but I think he will make a huge impact this year when given the right circumstances to make plays.
He spent most of the 2013 season learning from Leach, telling the Baltimore Sun, "Last year was a great learning year, and Vonta was such an awesome mentor." If Juszczyk takes his knowledge from past experience and advice given to him by Leach, in combination with Gary Kubiak's offense, there is no doubt the 23-year-old will be an impact player.
Under Kubiak, they have Juszczyk filling many different roles on the team, he also told the Baltimore Sun, "I've gotten the term of 'Swiss Army Knife' a lot since high school because of my versatility." Kubiak added in the same interview, "He's athletic and can make some plays down the field." This will be important for the Ravens to have in their offense.
The team tweeted earlier today:
FB Kyle Juszczyk (@JuiceCheck44) could catch 40-50 passes this year. http://t.co/Qih1rK6WUQ pic.twitter.com/HEfyvoaHGI
— Baltimore Ravens (@Ravens) June 12, 2014
I think Juszczyk will be a crucial player on the offense this year. Judging by his college accolades, he will be the type of guy that will step up and make a huge difference. The more opportunities he gets for carries and catches the more likely he is to be a go-to player for the Ravens in 2014.

Very large conference, the convention center was more than adequate. Large and numerous meeting rooms Clean and modern, a lot of dining and hotel options near by.
Location was a great place to hold a very large conference. Media staff always helped every speaker prior to event so they could start running at the set time. Clean facility. Beautiful building.
Planned to go for just a couple of hours, but I was ther for almost the entire day. It was very enjoyable, and informative. There was a lot of free treatments and giveaways and celebrity spokespeople. I look forward to attending again.
The convention center has really been updated and the new addition has help our convention handle more people in a more comfortable manner. The new ballrooms and meeting rooms as well as the spacious foyer are really nice.
My job requires me to travel quite a bit for classes and conferences. The HBG Convention center is my favorite. You need good walking shoes to see all the places it covers. I love the fact that it actually sits over part of the riverwalk. You can walk over to the food court at the river center mall for lunch...
Great space to hold large conventions and events! Spacious and well equipped with personnel to assist you and allow for asuccessful event!
Was there for the Texas Music Educator's conference. Excellent facility, easy to get around. As with most conference venues, food prices are crazy high ($4 for a 20 oz Pepsi). Overall a great facility.
The convention is huge. There is so much space and so many events going on. Very clean and friendly staff. Close to hotels and the riverwalk. PAX South was held here and it was amazing.
If you are going to something here you won't be disappointed. There are many different sized conference rooms, and a theater. Many consession areas, with a good selection offered. Another option is the Riverwalk which is just downstairs, and there are many dining spots close by in a variety of prices ranges. Shopping also close.

£6-8 per hour
I'm looking for a part time nanny to look after my two children from February 2013 when I return to work after maternity leave. The girls will at that point be 3.5years old and 6 months old. We need someone either from 7am til 7pm on a Monday or from 1pm-7pm on a Monday and Thursday. We live in Old Tupton and have two very placid cats and five free range chickens as well as the children.
The ideal person will be loving, fun, creative and flexible. Previous experience as a nanny would be ideal but not essential if you have previous experience of looking after children of these ages. You must be able to drive and have access to a car for work (mileage will be reimbursed at standard rates).
Salary negotiable depending on experience (£6-£8 an hour)

If you are eagerly awaiting a tax refund from the federal government, you probably want to know when you should expect your money to arrive. One way of getting a rough estimate is to consult an IRS tax refund calendar
An IRS tax refund calendar will help you determine when your refund will arrive based on the date you filed your IRS tax return. Generally speaking, the earlier you filled in your return, the earlier you will receive your money back. The one exception is if you have opted to file your taxes by mail and also receive a check by mail. In this situation, someone who has filed their taxes digitally and decided to receive their tax refund by direct deposit could easily get their money before you do, even if they filed it later.
In the past, the IRS published an official IRS tax refund calculator. This consisted of a column on the right, where taxpayers could look up the date they filed their tax return, a corresponding column in the middle where taxpayers could look up the date they can expect to receive a direct deposit, and a column on the right, where tax payers could look up the date they expect to receive a paper check in the mail if they selected that option when filing their tax return.
2011 was the last time the IRS published this document. However, many websites still publish an estimated IRS tax refund calendar, based on information gathered in the past. The IRS also publishes a calendar of their process, production and posting cycle. This can be difficult to decipher, particularly if you aren't massively financially literate, but this information has already been taken into account when compiling unofficial estimated IRS tax refund calendars.
Of course the IRS is a huge, unpredictable machine, and any kind of unofficial document that tries to anticipate the moments of the IRS can never be 100% accurate in every case. In fact, even some official IRS documents aren't 100% accurate in every case. This is inherent to the nature of tax administration, especially in such a large country.
Despite the fact they aren't infallible, the best way to get the most accurate information on when you should expect your tax return is to go directly to the source. The IRS hosts a web-based tool called "Where's My Tax Refund?" that allows taxpayers to investigate the status of their refund. After the refund is approved, the tool will give an exact date that the taxpayer will receive their money. You can't get any more accurate than that. Of course this tool only works after you have submitted a tax return, and only gives exact information fairly late in the process. Still, it can be incredibly useful.
The blanket IRS rule is that taxpayers who e-file their tax return and opt for direct deposit payment will receive their tax refund no later than 21 days after they file. If you're in any doubt, refer to official IRS guidance.

Grace period expiring for tax payments

What January 1 means for local taxes
January 1 is a significant date for property taxes and business licenses. Here are a few things that homeowners and business owners should keep in mind for the new year.
Property owners
Assessments. Property assessments for 2017 conducted by DeKalb County will be based on the status of the property as of January 1. For example, new developments and improvements made prior to January 1 will be factored into 2017 assessments by DeKalb, but improvements made after January 1 would not. If something about your property has changed since last year, such as a demolition, you should file a return with the DeKalb County assessors office between now and April 1 to ensure that the assessors have current information.
Homestead exemptions. Qualifying for age-based homestead exemptions for your property taxes depends on the age of the homeowner as of January 1. If you turned 62, 65, 70, or 80 prior to January 1, you may have become eligible for one or more homestead exemptions offered by Decatur. Homestead exemptions can be applied for with the city between now and March 15, 2017, to ensure that any new exemptions on your account appear on your 1st installment tax bill which will be mailed out by April 1. Call 404-370-4100 for details. You should also check with DeKalb to determine whether you have become eligible for any additional exemptions with their office.
Business owners
Although business license payments for 2017 can be made until January 31, please note that 2016 business license certificates in Decatur have expired. Call the Decatur business license office at 678-553-6743 for renewal options.
If your business has more than 10 employees as of January 1, you will need to let the Decatur business license office know your E-Verify number if you haven't already done so. State law says that the E-Verify requirement is based on the number of employees a business had as of January 1.
If you owned a business that closed in 2016 or moved out of Decatur or DeKalb, you should notify the DeKalb County assessors office at 404-371-0841 to ensure that you do not receive a business inventory tax assessment notice and tax bills from DeKalb and Decatur in 2017. If your business is open for the beginning of 2017 you will receive an assessment and tax bill for 2017 even if your business closes or moves later this year.

State announces delay in tax refunds next year
Refunds for Georgia income tax returns in 2017 could take up to three months to be issued. The Department of Revenue steps they take to verify taxpayer identity take longer and could delay the refunds. From the AJC:
Georgia warns 2017 state tax refunds could be delayed
Kristina Torres | The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Friday, Dec. 2, 2016
Georgia tax officials said Friday that some 2017 refunds may be delayed due to fraud prevention efforts, a warning that comes after complaints this year that it took longer than usual to process income tax returns.
Starting next year, all first-time Georgia income tax filers or taxpayers who have not filed here for at least five years will only be able to receive refunds in the form of a paper check and not by electronic transfer.
The state won't begin processing individual returns until Feb. 1, with officials saying it could take more than 90 days to issue a refund if one is due...
The agency is encouraging taxpayers to register online with the department's tax center website to monitor the status of their returns. Registered users can also get fraud alerts to notify them when a return has been filed with their Social Security number.
To sign up, go to gtc.dor.ga.gov.

Lowndes County to begin appointing assessors
In most of Georgia, property tax assessors are appointed to their positions. In Lowndes County, this has been an elected position. That will change now that voters have approved the appointment of assessors going forward. The stated reason for the change is that elected assessors don't always have the training and expertise to carry out their duties. From the Dalton Citizen:
Assessor referendum passesBy John Stephen
VALDOSTA, Ga. — The Lowndes County special ballot asking if tax assessors should be appointed narrowly passed 50.27 to 49.73 percent, according to the county's board of elections.
Results show 18,293 people voted for tax assessors to be appointed by county commissioners, and 18,095 people voted for tax assessors to continue being elected by the public — a difference of only 198 votes.
While all votes from local precincts were counted after Election Day on Nov. 8, up to 2,000 provisional, absentee and military ballots still needed to be counted. Until those remaining votes were tallied at the elections office on Tuesday, Nov. 15, the race was too close to call.
Currently, Lowndes County tax assessors are elected by the public. In every other county in Georgia, tax assessors are appointed by the county commissioners.
The ballot asked if the state should repeal the constitutional amendment that mandates Lowndes County tax assessors be elected. Now that the repeal has passed, tax assessors will be appointed by the Lowndes County Board of Commissioners starting in 2021.
The county commissioners pioneered the ballot question after discussing the change for several years. Board of Commissioners Chairman Bill Slaughter said while the current tax assessors have good intentions, he questioned whether they have the managerial skills necessary to oversee the large tax assessor's office...

Columbus voters keep property taxes frozen
One of the bigger property tax-related proposals on the ballot in Georgia this year was a repeal of the property assessment freeze in Columbus. Opponents of the freeze, including the Muscogee County school board and Columbus mayor Teresa Tomlinson, said that the freeze suppresses economic activity by discouraging home improvements and property sales. However, in the end, people weren't sold by the argument and chose to keep the freeze. Sixty percent of residents voted against a "thaw."
This is the third time that a repeal of the Columbus freeze has been defeated. It goes to show that a permanent freeze is difficult to tweak even if there are valid reasons to alter it. It also probably helps explain why DeKalb County's property tax freezes sunset every few years instead of being permanent. From the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer:
...If the referendum had passed, it would have kept the freeze in place for all who are currently under it, but would have put any homestead property bought after Jan. 1, 2017, under a more traditional fair market value system, where property is regularly reassessed. Those properties under the freeze would have remained so until they changed hands, whether by sale or probate. They would have then go into the fair market value system. Eventually, all frozen property would have changed hands and no property would have remained under the freeze.
The property tax assessment freeze was voted into effect in 1982. It freezes the assessed value of a homestead property at the value at the time of the sale and keeps it there until the property changes hands. It is then reassessed at the current value and again frozen at that value.
It has been challenged before, both at the polls and in the courts, and the challenges failed both times.
Voters initially approved the freeze by a 73-27 percent margin in 1982. A 1991 attempt to repeal the freeze by referendum failed by an 81-19 percent margin.
In the early 2000s, a group challenged the freeze's constitutionality and won a favorable ruling at the Superior Court level. But the state and then federal supreme courts ruled it constitutional...

Question: Does Tomcat expose its API beyond the Servlet spec? IOW, is it common to have direct plugins to Tomcat that are specific to Tomcat? If Tomcat is not meant to be used that way, you have the ability to upgrade the logger in one massive sweep and be done with it. I wasn't aware of a real Tomcat Platform. > > LogKit also allows displaying this information. > > I couldn't find this info - in any case the API doesn't seem > to allow passing the 'wrapper' class, nor the > classname/methodname, so it may be more difficult than for JDK1.4. You are correct about the 'wrapper' class, but it can and does print the current thread, and the calling class. It might control the wrapper class issue by just a number of stack trace entries. It also might be that we never got around to making that part work yet. > > If a logging wrapper is wrapped, then there is a real > design problem. > > :-) > > I don't see any other solution - we can't abandon the old > wrapper interface for backward compatibility, and we want > to migrate to commons-logging. For something like Tomcat where it *is* the application, and does not provide any exposed framework, I don't see where that need has to be enforced. IOW it is probably easier to just go through and change the logger wrapper. > We could leave the old interfaces use their own file-based > logging, but that wouldn't be very nice.

Yep, and there are a couple of APIs that do that much. > As for discovery/pluggability - it is allways possible to > explicitely select an implementation, and we're using a very > basic and clear standard ( the META-INF/services ). I understand. I just come from a different mindset, and am naturally distrusting of discovery/pluggability. Granted, I am also an outsider so to speak. > The JMX solution can avoid adding the configuration features > into the loggers and keep the API simpler ( but it may make > the implementation a bit more complex - but not very much ) The problem is where does it stop? If you start down the road of configuring the underlying logging API, other users will start in with, "Yeah that's nice, but wouldn't it be great if... ...and it won't be that much more complex...." Before you even consider going down that path, you need to draw a very clear line in the sand and explain exactly why you won't consider anything more than the wrapper layer issues. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:email@example.com> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:email@example.com>

Yes, current pots and pans don't often have oven proof handles! I use
corning wear in the oven, but hate cleaning after them. The set of pots I
have are Revereware, too! Have you checked with the company to see about
handle replacements? (I've replaced a couple of lid knobs that way on
mine.) It's too bad your m-i-l couldn't tell something and someone good
when she saw it. Too bad for her!!! LOL!!!
As far as getting through critters, I'm sure cats can trip you up too.
There is just more weight behind a bulldog wrapping himself around one's
legs. (Mr. Face rubs legs like a cat does, but he weighs about 85lbs. The
rest like to get on their hind legs to smell what's in the skillet or pot.

Subject: Re: [CHAT] Pots, plans and floors?
Bonnie, I started with a set of Revereware copper-bottomed steel pots when
we were married - nearly 53 years ago. They were expensive for the time,
and my m-i-l scolded me for spending so much on them (I never did anything
right in her eyes). I still have most of them, though the handles have come
off a couple. When I tried to replace those, all I could find are heavy
anodized aluminum, which I hate. I still enjoy my copper-bottomed, but do a
lot of cooking in a hot oven - roasted vegetables, grilled meats, etc. - and
find the cast iron is better for that. I realize that 4 bulldogs would
create more of a hazard than my 4 cats.

and nothing is left. I've found it much lighter and when trying to run the
gauntlet of 4 burly bulldogs around one's legs getting to the table, weight
for a "little person" is a big deal!

She may be one of the world's biggest rock stars, a potent sex symbol and even a successful actress but Madonna will this week find herself in the spotlight for a very different reason, as the scourge of ramblers.
A public inquiry is to open on Wednesday on whether the singer and her film director husband Guy Ritchie can exclude walkers from their 1,200-acre estate, Cranbourne Chase, on the Wiltshire-Dorset border.
The couple are appealing against a Countryside Agency (CA) decision giving partial access to their land which leads ramblers just 100 yards from Ashcombe House, their six-bedroomed Georgian mansion.
Madonna is insisting the CA take account of their right to privacy under the European convention on human rights. If the grassland the path crosses is found to be "semi-improved", rather than "semi-natural", the couple can claim it is in cultivation, used for game-shooting, and they can refuse ramblers access.
Madonna is also facing a hearing in Los Angeles on whether she and Ritchie stole the idea for their panned remake of Swept Away. Vincent D'Onofrio, the actor and director, says the couple and producer Sony took his idea to remake the 1974 Italian comedy starring Madonna and refused him compensation or credit.
He says he pitched the idea to Madonna in April 1997. He is said to be seeking $10m (£5.6m).

We imagined the ideal dishwasher...and the concept of the DishDrawer was born. Years of research and refinement have created an appliance that offers a compelling blend of form and function. Each drawer is independently operated, allowing you to wash small loads as economically as large ones. DishDrawer lets you match the wash programme to the contents, so dishes are better cared for.

Used this dishwasher everyday for 3 years

About Me Gourmet Chef
Comments about Fisher & Paykel 24" EZKleen Stainless Steel Single DishDrawer:
This dishwasher has had very heavy use in our home, used almost twice a day when needed. I love that we can use it for small loads and it runs very quietly. You wouldn't even know it was running. No issues at all. You do need to be careful loading as you don't want to obstruct the fan below however that is common sense. I would recomend a gel dishwasher soap like cascade as the power doesn't work well (learnt that the hard way). Havent had an issue or have it stop working once in 3 years.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Avid Cook
Comments about Bertazzoni Fisher & Paykel 24" EZKleen Stainless Steel Single DishDrawer:
This is the worst dishwasher I have ever owned. Bought this 9 months ago. Will be replacing with new dishwasher that actually washes dishes. This dish washer makes pre-rinsed "dirty" dishes dirty. Buy something else, and avoid dish drawers because this rated the best of them.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Robust rankings of multi-dimensional performances: An application to Tour de France racing cyclists
There is a general interest in ranking performances (e.g., in sports or policy), which essentially implies aggregating several performance dimensions. The usual approach considers a 'cardinal' linear weighting of the different single-dimensional performance indicators. We present an alternative approach, which merely requires 'ordinal' information regarding the importance of the different performance dimensions. We argue that this approach is robust with respect to alternative specifications of the (possibly non-linear) underlying performance aggregation function. An application to Tour de France racing cyclists (in the period 1953-2004) illustrates the approach. We find that Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault and Lance Armstrong (robustly) dominate almost all other racing cyclists in our sample, while they do not dominate each other. A net-dominance metric ranks Bernard Hinault on the first place in our sample; Eddy Merckx and Lance Armstrong follow very closely ex-aequo on the second place.
