Brooke loved reading the dishy celebrity gossip rag Last Night - until her marriage became a weekly headline, that is.
Brooke was drawn to the soulful, enigmatic Julian Alter the very first time she heard him perform "Hallelujah" at a dark East Village dive bar. Now five years married, Brooke balances two jobs—as a nutritionist at NYU Hospital and as a consultant to an Upper East Side girls' school, where privilege gone wrong and disordered eating run rampant—in order to help support her husband's dream of making it in the music world. Things are looking up when, after years of playing Manhattan clubs and toiling as an A&R intern, Julian finally gets signed by Sony. Although no one's promising that the album will ever hit the airwaves, Julian is still dedicated to logging in long hours at the recording studio. All that changes after Julian is asked to perform on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno—and is catapulted to stardom, literally overnight.
Amazing opportunities begin popping up almost daily—a new designer wardrobe, a tour with Maroon 5, even a Grammy performance. At first, the newfound fame is fun—who wouldn't want to stay at the Chateau Marmont or visit the set of one of television's hottest shows? Yet it seems that Brooke's sweet husband—the man who can't handle hot showers and wears socks to bed—is increasingly absent, even on those rare nights they're home together. When rumors about Brooke and Julian swirl in the tabloid magazines, she begins to question the truth of her marriage and is forced to finally come to terms with what she thinks she wants—and what she actually needs.

"Weisberger has insightful takes about the price of success in our celebrity-obsessed culture." (Publishers Weekly)
"Another great Weisberger novel"
I'm really enjoying this story and love the characters, Brooke and Nola. This is right up there with her other novels. I love the humor and the serious lines as well. The only thing I can't enjoy is this reader - it's 'ok' but she really doesn't enunciate some words and it sounds rather unprofessional for a book reader. Example: "impordent" instead of pronouncing "important". Other than that, it's a fun book.
"Skip this one! Boring!"
I had high expectations for this book given it praise and having loved The Devil Wears Prada. The narrator is awful, there's hardly any inflection in her voice. The book is boring, I'm 2/3 of the way through and hardly anything has happened yet. Its been a waste of time and money.
"SO bad...."
This book needs to be abridged....like, NOW. I'm trying to stay committed until the end, but I just don't know if I'll be able to make it. It's so Boring! Not only that, the writing is pretty bad. The author isn't great with the segues into new chapters/scenes/dialogue. Twice already, I've had to rewind, thinking that I skipped a chapter by accident. But no....it's just a jarring transition into a new scenario--kind of wierd.
The narrator is pretty bad too. Sounds like a first time reader--doesn't really give life to any character. Also, bc she doesn't really distinguish between different male and female voices, it's a little hard to know whose voice she's in at any given moment.
Don't waste your time.
"Merritt Wever was Better than the Story!"
Don't get me wrong. I like to while away a few hours with chick lit as much as the next girl. I have read Lauren Weisberger before and find her romps just the right mix of fun and frolic. That said, this wasn't my favorite -- but it wasn't bad. I liked learning a bit about the music business, and getting to think about my own tendencies to read the headlines of tabloids at the grocery store. Howver, the story just felt a little bit under developed overall.
That said, Merritt Wever and something about her tone sort of constantly imbues such a real quality to Brooke. As her husband Julian is thrust into super stardom, you can hear Brooke screaming through Merritt's narration ... "are you kidding me with this man-child behavior right now?"
The book seemed to wrap up kind of neatly for me after a requisite period of struggle, but I'm not sure Brooke & Julian actually evolved as much as they just made it through enough pages to be released from their suffering.
One highlight of the book are the song lyrics which really gave a sense of believability to the story of the "one hit wonder," and I am sure I'm not alone in thinking someone should run with them and create a complimentary hit to accompany the book! So that is a real fun element of the book.
"Good Listen"
Another good, easy listen with humor and a fun story line. Romance, modern, and up to date with what our 'real world' stars may actually deal with.
"Eh, kinda typical of Weisberger"
This is Lauren Weisberger's fourth novel and to some extent either you like her style or you don't. The big splash of her first book is that it was a barely disguised roman a clef. In this book Weisberger wants the reader to know she's BEEN to the Chateau Marmont and it is awesome. I'm sure she's met some musicians but she clearly doesn't know enough to really write a character that is actually a burgeoning musician. (Or a nutritionist). If you are a Weisberger fan, this book will be up your alley. Anyone not already familiar with her writing (other than Devil Wears Prada) should avoid.
"Couldn't wait to get to the end."
I enjoyed Lauren's smart witty writing and couldn't stop in the middle. That being said, I had a hard time stomaching the self depricating, too sweet, whiny Brook. She had an opportunity to hold onto her dignity and be a supportive loveing wife but she comes off as unable to handle what can truly be a difficult and stressful rise to celebrity. This is a smart women who is written to crumble on impact crying about not spending time with her very talented busy husband to the detriment of her own career. I don't know that I will read another Lauren Weishenberger book with this as example of how she writes women. Wally Lamb, penis and all, writes women made of stronger stuff.
"loved this!! great original story"
This was great, loved the story and thought that it was a great narration. Would love to see this made into a movie.
"A Modern Fairy Tale?"
Lots of kids dream of being rock stars, but a love that lasts - possible???
Say something about yourself!
"Very entertaining! Good narrator"
I've listened to this twice and it kept me intrigued each time. The narrator is very good and the story is interesting. I listen to audiobooks when I run and I definitely looked forward to listening to this one!

Alex Lyras performs "The Agony and the Ecstasy of Steve Jobs"
Alex Lyras & Tracy Heilman Schmidt
Friday, November 23, 2012 at 8:30 PM (PST)
Who's Going
San Francisco, California
London, United Kingdom
Florence, Italy
Event Details
The Agony and The Ecstasy of Steve Jobs, by Mike Daisey, examines the controversy of globalization through the lens of the rise and fall and rise of Apple, and the price we pay for our technology. The New York Times called the work, "Powerful, funny and engaging... Anyone with a cell phone and a moral center should see this show."
In January 2012, portions of the monologue were aired on This American Life. The episode, titled "Daisey and the Apple Factory," became the most downloaded episode in the show's history. Two months later, Ira Glass officially retracted the episode, having discovered that some of the claims made by Daisey had been dramatized. Daisey admitted to lying.
After the firestorm, Daisey reformed his work and has continued to perform it, removing the contested details and standing by his assertions that the conditions in Apple's supply chain violate China's own labor laws and remain unethical.
Daisey made the script public with this caveat: "The transcript is a theatrical blueprint which can amended or changed as you see fit." Now, Alex Lyras puts his own spin on the work in his first return to the L.A. stage since the award-winning The Common Air debuted in 2008.

Some people put everything they feel like into practice in the first impulse. They say everything that comes across their minds without ever thinking. They do not feel the need to assess the results of their behaviors or their words. If they feel angry, they express their anger without ever feeling the need to calm down. If they feel resentment, they express it instantly. When a situation that might make them uncomfortable, they make it felt that they are upset about it. If they feel like crying, they do cry. If they feel like feeling sad, giving way to despair or touchiness, they instantly surrender to these states of mind.
The difference of a Muslim shows itself at this point. A Muslim does not act by every spontaneous feeling he has. This is because "to feel like" means giving way to the "desires of the lower self". A Muslim first evaluates those with the Qur'an and put into practice only if they are in compliance with the morality of the Qur'an. This is because a Muslim is not someone who leaves himself to the control of his lower self. He manages his lower self, not the other way round.
Consequently a faithful person does not get angry whenever he feels anger inside. He does not get jealous whenever he feels jealousy inside. He does not surrender to resentment whenever he feels like resenting. He does not display an egocentric behavior whenever he feels conceited. He does not get defeated by his pride whenever he feels the urge to take an empty pride in something.
Whenever he feels similar evil urges of the lower self, a Muslim should definitely "take refuge in Allah". He takes refuge in Allah, defeats these wrong spontaneous feelings and instead adopts the attitude he should according to the morality of the Qur'an.
This is a very important superiority in the morality of a Muslim. Muslim's ability to control his lower self to this extend, is doubtless only possible with the profound love and fear he feels for Allah. This is because the lower self- unless wisdom and conscience is used- is really effective on humans. This is how Allah had created the lower self –as a necessity of the test in the life in this world. People who do not fear Allah, who do not believe in the Hereafter, do not have the power to struggle with their lower selves, to stand up to the instillations coming from it and to defeat them. They are under the complete control of their lower selves. And have left the course of their lives be directed by their lower selves.
Muslims on the other hand are completely aware of the fact Prophet Joseph(pbuh) had voiced : "'I do not say myself was free from blame. The self indeed commands to evil acts – except for those my Lord has mercy on. My Lord, He is Forgiving, Merciful.'" (Surah Yusuh: 53) They know that "feeling like doing something" does not constitute a reason to surrender to that feeling. They know that Allah will hold them responsible of using their intelligence, abiding by their conscience and living by the morality of the Qur'an. For that reason no matter how much their lower self force them, they do not surrender to the spontaneous desires of their lower selves.
Some people think that they are only capable of resisting some of the spontaneous feelings of their lower selves; but that they are weak in the face of some others. For instance, such a person would believe that he can defeat the urge, if his lower self suggests him to act rude. He feels sure that he has the power to resist the feelings like indifference, laziness, selfishness. But he believes that he cannot defeat his anger. Or when he feels sad, when he feels like crying, he thinks that he cannot do anything to stop that. He thinks that these are not spiritual but physical things; and that these desires are the reactions of his body and thus he cannot resist them. He is of the idea that there are tens of other points in his lower self that he cannot intervene with. He tries to convince people around him of his ideas with words like; "What can I do, this is who I am, I cannot keep my temper", "Everyone has a flaw and this is mine, accept me as who I am."
But of course these beliefs of such people are completely wrong. Allah had informed us in the Qur'an that He had inspired depravity to the lower self but that He had given man the power to defeat such evil;
and the self and what proportioned it
and inspired it with depravity or taqwa,
he who purifies it has succeeded, who covers it up has failed.
(Surat Ash-Shams: 7/10)
Therefore anyone who carries a belief contrary to the information revealed in the Qur'an, is only fooling himself. In truth, everyone - by the will of Allah- possesses the strength to defeat every kind of evil, depravity and flaw he has in his lower self, if he really wants to. If he fears and obeys Allah, there is a way out, for everyone, even for the most powerful and most compelling suggestions of one's lower self. It would be a grave weakness to surrender to one's lower self instantly, thinking that "he is not able to cope with" and to resign himself to live with that mistake, instead of striving hard and being determined to defeat his lower self. Allah had shown man the true path for everything in this world. Every person seeking the solution in Qur'an, can easily find these ways and put them in practice without any difficulty.
In the light of all this information, one should comprehend this truth thoroughly: Every person would face thousands of suggestions coming from his lower self all through his life. A person's living according to these tens of suggestions of his lower self, every hour of every day would drag him to a very dangerous line. A person's surrendering himself to every spontaneous urge of his lower self is a grave mistake that would drag him to frustration both in this world and in the Hereafter. Allah had created lower self for man to fight with the evil in himself. For that reason a person should never let such desperate (Allah is beyond that), ignorant wordings that conflict with the truth revealed in the Qur'an, come across his mind or use them: "This is my character", "This is who I am", " I struggled a lot but I could not succeed", "These are beyond my control", "I am doing the best I can, but I cannot defeat such and such feature in my lower self." A Muslim should know that if he still has a depravity that he could not defeat in his lower self, the solution to this is in him "fearing and obeying Allah more deeply" and "holding on to the Qur'an more tightly". When he sincerely lives by this morality, Allah will bestow him the strength to defeat depravity.
The truths that a Muslim should be aware of about this matter are revealed in the Qur'an as follows:
Allah does not impose on any self any more than it can stand. (Surat Al-Baqara: 286)
... We impose on no self any more than it can bear...
(Surat Al- An'am: 152)
... Whoever has fear of Allah – He will make matters easy for him.
(Surat Al-Talaq: 4)
For truly with hardship comes ease;
Truly with hardship comes ease.
So when you have finished, work on, and make your Lord your goal!
(Surat Al-Inshirah: 5-8)

Situated on a promontory overlooking Maine's Boothbay Harbor, this 1915 house had good proportions, a protective roofline, and a view over the water. So architect Rob Whitten winced when the owners asked him to winterize it and add on. "Many such cottages have been brought to their knees by people wanting to turn them into four-season residences," he says.
What the clients received instead was a separate master quarters that can be used year-round (see "Pattern Play"). He kept the main cottage simple, stiffening it structurally and insulating from the outside to retain its interior character. Pushing out the wall 6 feet in the kitchen made space for an island on one side of the room, plus a 5-foot-by-5-foot pantry tucked in a corner. He also enlarged an opening to the dining room, which got a new bay, and cut a passageway between the kitchen and the living room. A refined-rustic material palette—wood-paneled walls, recycled heart pine flooring, a farmhouse sink, and cherry cabinets—imparts a sense of comfort and shelter. A simple band of windows rounds a corner over the sink.
Rigid foam insulation in the walls and spray foam in the attic help extend the season by a few months. "The main cottage can be used from May to mid-October," Whitten says. "At that point you should give it up; summer's over."

BREVARD, N.C.- The Brevard College women's basketball team (7-15, 6-12 SAC) fell to the Eagles of Carson-Newman (13-11, 10-8 SAC) 73-62 win in South Atlantic Conference action on Monday night in Boshamer Gymnasium.
The Eagles opened the second half with 10 straight points to take a 48-37 advantage and held the lead for the duration of the game.
The Tornados didn't go quietly though, responding with eight unanswered points following Carson-Newman's run to cut their deficit to three points with 15:05 to play. Katie Williams assisted a Taylor Hiatt three-point play to cap the run.
The Eagles took control for good with 10 more unanswered points following the BC run, and didn't let their lead dip below eight points for the rest of the game.
Madison Lenox led three Tornados to double figures with 14 points, while Chelsea Turner had 13 and Williams finished with 12.
Despite trailing by as many as 11 points in the first half, Brevard scored 10 unanswered points to take a two-point lead on a Kadijah Watts layup with 32 seconds left in the opening half.
The Eagles quickly regained the lead with a three from Katie Stubblefield on the Eagles next possession, giving Carson-Newman a 38-37 lead at the break.
Brevard will have a quick turnaround as they travel on Wednesday, February 19th, to play Lincoln Memorial at Tex Turner Arena at 6 p.m.

Sir Stuffington becomes an Internet sensation
Sir Stuffington is getting famous through Facebook. He came into the Multnomah County Animal shelter on September 13 with two of his siblings who were rescued off the streets. In addition to being filthy, covered with fleas, and suffering from an upper respiratory infection, he had survived some sort of traumatic injury that caused a disfigured jaw and the loss of one eye. He also has a heart murmur and flea anemia. All three kittens have calicivirus, which is contagious to other cats.
All three of the approximately 6 week old kittens were cleaned up and treated for their URI's. Next, they were sent to a foster home to recuperate. Blazer Schaffer, volunteered to foster the kittens until they are healthy and at an adoptable weight.
Not only did Blazer provide a loving home, she created a Facebook Page just for Sir Stuffington and has been chronicling her caregiving through regular posts and adorable photos. Sir Stuffington's facebook Page already has over 1,000 "likes"!
Once Sir Stuffington is healthy and a bit larger, they're planning to perform extractions of several teeth in order to alleviate any issues the new teeth would cause as a result of his jaw injury. Dolly's Fund donations will allow the shelter to offer Sir Stuffington the extra medical care he needs to grow into a happy, healthy cat.
Sir Stuffington is not yet available for adoption. It will likely be about two months before he's ready.

|TAKE - make xfs build with more gcc versions
|Steve Lord <lord@xxxxxxx>
|Fri, 20 Apr 2001 09:00:44 -0500
This gets xfs past build problems with some versions of gcc, specifically redhat versions. The kernel also boots and runs when built with the compiler from redhat 7.1. NOTE IF YOU ARE USING REDHAT 7.0 THEN WE RECOMMEND YOU STILL USE kgcc AS THE COMPILER, YOUR SYSTEM MAY WELL HANG IF YOU DO NOT. Success/failure reports greatfully accepted. p.s. also changes the extraversion from -XFS to -xfs for debian packaging issues. Date: Fri Apr 20 06:56:18 PDT 2001 Workarea: jen.americas.sgi.com:/src/lord/xfs-base The following file(s) were checked into: bonnie.engr.sgi.com:/isms/slinx/2.4.x-xfs Modid: 2.4.x-xfs:slinx:93026a linux/Makefile - 1.85 - Fall back to just defining CC as gcc, but provide some commentary on other compilers you might want to use. linux/fs/xfs/linux/xfs_linux.h - 1.48 - For ia32 based systems, fold the contents of the do_div macro into the xfs code and clean it up some - this gets us past build errors from various compiler versions.

Natural Family Planning or any contraceptives can be use to avoid immediate pregnancy especially if you are not ready yet. Implementing disciplinary actions will do to discipline your children's attitude.

Being a mother is not a choice, it is a gift and children are blessings given by God.
5th November 2013 04:55 AM #4
Hi Sherryl,
I've posted some comments on gentle discipline in reply to your other post here. This contains links to lots of excellent gentle discipline resources. Here, the overall focus is on our relationship with our child. It is about good communication and being tuned into our children's needs and thoughts.
Do your wear your baby in a sling? I have found babywearing an excellent way to bond and stay close to my baby whilst playing with my toddler. Do your children go to bed at different times? Are you able to spend even just a little one-to-one time with each child each day? Quality, focused time with each child will make them feel loved and valued and be important bonding time for you both.
Do you have any friends or family who could help you with your 5 year old sometimes?
I would say that they all need your attention, but in different ways. You may find it helpful to have a loose plan to each day to help you to manage when you can spend more time with each child.
Do you go to any activities or playgroups with your children? These can be excellent for providing games/ crafts for different age-groups to allow you to move round each of your children and simply enjoy being together.
Warm wishes to you,

Woman's body recovered from Clackamas River
Searchers spent the weekend looking for the body of 26-year-old Meagan O'Meara-Clark after she went missing on Friday. She was in a raft on the Clackamas River when she jumped in near the Carver boat ramp. Strong currents pulled her under.
Her body was found by a family member who was helping with the search. She was in 15 feet of water near the location where she went under.
Clackamas County Sheriff's Office boat crews were nearby and searching another part of the river with an underwater camera. They responded and recovered the body. It was turned over to the Medical Examiner's office.

Sometimes, if you keep plugging away, things will finally go your way. The Buffalo Sabres kept plugging away Friday night and finally got something right. They opened their game against the Tampa Bay Lightning charged up by drilling 14 shots on 'Bolts goalie Kevin Weekes in the first period and never looking back from there. The Sabres ended their three game winning streak by beating Tampa Bay 4-1.
Sabres give Lightning a shock

After 13 weeks of voting, Aubie the Tiger is one of four mascots still standing in the playoffs of the Capital One Bowl Mascot Challenge. The playoffs started a whole new round of the competition, which will run through Dec. 12.
This week, Nov. 28 through Dec. 5, Aubie is facing one of his toughest competitors of the season, Nevada's currently undefeated Wolfie Jr. If Aubie can win this week, he'll advance to the final round with a chance to become National Mascot of the Year.
Aubie needs the help of the Auburn Family to win. Fans can vote for Aubie an unlimited number of times by going to www.capitalonebowl.com, Facebook at www.Facebook.com/MascotChallenge, or by texting "Aubie" to 78527 up to 249 times an hour. Standard messaging rates apply.
Aubie has competed throughout football season with 15 other college mascots as part of the Capital One All-America Mascot Team. The top eight mascots with the best head-to-head records began competing last week in a bracket-style, single-elimination competition to determine the overall winner.
This is Aubie's sixth year in the National Mascot of the Year challenge, but he has yet to win the competition. To view the Capital One Mascot challenge video feature on Aubie, go to http://www.capitalonebowl.com/videos/v/12.
The Capital One National Mascot of the Year will be announced at the Capital One Bowl on Jan. 2 and will be awarded a $20,000 scholarship to help fund its school's mascot program. Each of the 2011 Capital One All-America team members receives $5,000 for their university mascot program.
Other members of the 2011 Capital One All-America Mascot Team, as nominated by their schools and selected by a panel of judges from Capital One and the mascot community, include Wilbur T. Wildcat of University of Arizona, Sparty of Michigan State University, Mike the Tiger of Louisiana State University, Testudo of the University of Maryland, Wolfie Jr. of the University of Nevada, Hairy Dawg of the University of Georgia, Boomer of the University of Oklahoma, Brutus Buckeye of The Ohio State University, Big Blue of Old Dominion University, Duck of the University of Oregon, Benny Beaver of Oregon State University, Buzz of Georgia Tech, SuperFrog of TCU, Cy of Iowa State and Big Red of Western Kentucky University.

If you are a student, such as myself – or you use pdf files and presentations for your job – Adobe Acrobat Professional can be a useful program to incorporate for viewing and editing your pdf files. The program allows you to create pdf files, add notes to the current document you are using, edit the text, or add markups as you please. Today, we are going to learn how to use the comment and markup tool.
First, open up Adobe Acrobat Professional and open the file that you want to comment and/or markup. On the upper hand of the page, there is a toolbar. Next to the "Create PDF" icon, there is a "Comment & Markup" Icon with a drop down option. When you click on "Comment & Markup," a new little toolbar opens up with the heading "Commenting." You can keep this toolbar open as long as you would like to comment and markup the document you are currently working on, and whenever you want to close it, you can simply click on the "x" in the upper right hand corner of the toolbox to close it.
The first icon on the tool bar is the "Note Tool." This is to enter what appears as a "sticky" or "post-it" note anywhere you want in the document. First, click on the icon, and then you can click on where you want to place it in the document. Then, you can enter in a comment in the note. If you click on the "x" on the note, it minimizes the note. To re-open, simply double-click on the sticky note image in the document. If you want to delete the note completely, you can click on "Options," which is located on the upper right-hand corner of the yellow note. When you click on the Options side arrow, the "Delete" option is available among other options.
The next icon on the Comment & Markup toolbar is Text Edits. This allows you to directly select certain parts of the text to make a change to it–whether it be to highlight the selected text, replace selected text, add a note to the selected text, underline the selected text, or cross out the selected text. For instance, if you want to cross out a certain text in the document, first click on the "Text Edit" icon. An indicating texts button will initially pop up, which describes the three main functions of this tool. If you do not wish to see this message every time, click on the "Do Not Show Again" box in the lower left hand corner of the box. Once you hit "OK," you are ready to use this tool. Simply select the text you wish to edit, then use the drop down arrow of "Text Edits" to select the option you want. In this case, Cross Out Text for Deletion. A red line crossing through the selected text will then appear.
The next icon is the Stamp Tool. This has several different stamp options you can insert anywhere into the document, and it is divided by category. Dynamic stamps include stamps such as "Approved" and "Reviewed," Sign Here lets you insert a check mark or "X" or "Witness" stamp in the document, Standard Business provides different options that could be more pertinent to a business employee or manager, and Favorites allows you to add your favorite stamps to this category. If you want to create your own stamp, you can select a file or image and convert it into a stamp to insert into the document as well.
The next icon is a letter "T" with a yellow highlighter. This option allows you to highlight, underline or cross out selected text throughout the document or pdf file you are viewing and editing. Marking up your document has never been easier! Simply click on the option you want to you use, then select the text to which you want to apply that function. The cross-out text tool is the same function as was described earlier above with the Text Edit tool, but this may be an even easier way to implement it.
Next, we have an icon displaying a picture of a paper clip. This represents attachments. You can either attach a file as a comment, or record a audio comment to insert into the document. The final tool on the Comment & Markup Toolbox says "Show" next to two text box images. This allows you to tailor the viewing of your document to the way you desire. For example, if you want to close all the sticky notes you have opened throughout the document, you can click on "Hide All Comments" to achieve this. To undo the action, simply click on "Show All Comments," which will appear in place of "Hide All Comments" under the same drop down menu.
Happy editing!

The Francis Marion University Board of Trustees took action Friday (March 1) to address the region's growing need for qualified industrial engineers.
During its quarterly meeting, the board approved a resolution to establish the industrial engineering degree program to begin Jan. 1, 2014. FMU is awaiting final approval of the program from the S.C. Commission on Higher Education.
"We are proud to move forward with this new degree in industrial engineering. As with the nursing, nurse practitioner and nurse educator programs, this initiative has been developed in response to the workforce needs of the region and the state," said FMU President Dr. Fred Carter. "We think that it will be very, very successful."
FMU recently received a $150,000 gift from Santee Cooper as part of the electric utility's support of the university's forthcoming industrial engineering degree program for which FMU will partner with Florence-Darlington Technical College.
Santee Cooper has provided $50,000 to fund the instructional costs of the program, said Libby Cooper, interim director of the FMU Foundation. The balance of $100,000 will be used to establish the Santee Cooper Endowed Scholarship Fund for students enrolled in the new program.
"I have nothing but praise for Lonnie Carter and the board of Santee Cooper. This institution has been a strong proponent for education in South Carolina for decades," said Carter. "It's not surprising that the very first gift we get in support of this new program comes from our friends at Santee Cooper."
In other business, the board voted to name Loop Road at Griffin Athletic Complex for former faculty member and Patriots fan Dr. Harlan Hawkins. He was an original faculty member who served as a professor of geography until he retired in the summer of 1995. From 1970 until today, he has been a most avid supporter of Patriot athletics, attending nearly all the games.
In 1999, the Dr. Harlan Hawkins Women's Basketball Scholarship was established.

The Chiefland Women's Golf Association hosted its annual Ladies Invitational Tournament on April 6 at the Chiefland Golf and Country Club.

looking at my first service
Hi all,
I have previously done all the servicing on my last car, changing brakes, oil, tyres, coolant, spark plugs etc. However that was a glorified astra, now I have a BMW 320D MSport 57 at 54K. And after having it for a few months and after its previous history / the cars countdown clock, its needing a service shortly.
Now here are a few things I think have to do;
Oil Filter
Air Filter ?
Vortex oil breather ?
Remove swirl flaps?
Timing chain ?
Coolant ?
- Brakes pads/discs are good (changed them recently)
- Tyres new recently - Michelin sp2
- glow plugs (been told not to bother until 100k)
Now here are my questions...
Air filter?
Euro carparts list one (none oiled) for £5 cheaper than a stock, k&m flat filter of fleabay and Im thinking the K&M will last longer. But Im worried about the oil incase it effects the maf sensor (if it has one), which I have heard it can be a problem (see mightycarmods on youtube)?
vortex oil breather?
Ive read this is a common problem for the turbos? using the older tech (toilet roll?) and bmw came up with a new way to stop them getting clogged ? Am I correct in saying this or been on to much pepsi max ?
remove swirl flaps?
From chatting to people , Ive been told this is a common problem and to remove them straight away am I correct in doing so ?also Ive been told use a blanking plate ?
Timing Chain ?
This is certainly something I would never do! but from what Ive been told again.... some cars do need it changing and others dont, but always check it for stretching or wear. If so how do I check and what signs to look out for ? or if it does when does it need to be changed ?
None of its previous history of my car lists coolant changing from memory, when should this be changed and is this like oil, a bmw specified one or what ?
Glow Plugs?
Can anyone confirm what Ive been told is right.
Finally anything else ?

On Having A Feminist Father
I've often heard that having a daughter can be one of the most formative experiences in a man's life. Generally, I've been told, it's an experience that allows men to understand women's issues on a completely different, more fully empathetic level. Every time they hear about something like violence against women, street harassment or double standards, they picture their daughter and finally understand the full injustice involved. I think it's possible that this was something my own father experienced.
Don't get me wrong, I think my Dad has always been a particularly empathetic, kind and all around wonderful human being and I'm positive that was true long before I came into the world (in fact, I have been blessed with …

The distribution amounts reported in this publication are amounts disbursed to local governments, cities and counties, from the Office of the State Treasurer. The sales tax is collected by the Department of Revenue which is responsible for the correct allocation of the funds. The amounts in this publication are based on the local share of retail sales and use taxes collected two months prior to the distribution. Distributions are made monthly; however, no allowances or adjustments are made for late returns. Distributions from late returns are made in the second month after the returns are received just as they are for current returns. The data are used by local governments to track disbursements and plan budgets.
Differences Between Local Tax Distributions and the Quarterly Business Review
The amounts reported in this publication should not be compared with the Quarterly Business Review (QBR) amounts for taxable retail sales by county and city (tables 3 and 4). The two amounts differ in the following respects.
1. The local distribution amounts are based on local retail sales and use taxes. QBR amounts are based on retail sales only. The use tax is levied on items purchased out of state but used in state and on other items on which sales tax has not been paid.
2. Local sales and use tax distributions are made monthly based on cash collections of two months prior, without regard to when the tax liability occurred. QBR taxable retail sales are reported for the month in which the liability occurs. Adjustments are made for returns up to two months late.
3. State administrative costs are deducted from the local distributions and the county share is deducted from city distributions.
Local Sales and Use Tax Distributions
A portion of the total sales and use tax collected is a local tax and is returned to the city or county or certain other local jurisdictions where the sales transaction took place. The local jurisdictions are identified by a location code on the tax form. Except for the hotel/motel tax, the state share of the sales tax is 6.5 percent. The calculation for the distributions of the local sales and use tax is as follows. In most cases, a 1 percent fee is deducted from the total reported collections for state administration of the program. (State law allows deduction of up to 2 percent for administration costs.) Of the remaining 99 percent, 15 percent is given to the county for transactions occurring within cities. The remaining 85 percent is distributed to the cities as their share of the basic or optional tax. Counties receive the full amount attributable to sales in the unincorporated areas, plus the 15 percent share for sales in cities.
Distributions can fluctuate dramatically due to population changes, as well as annexations and incorporations. Businesses are notified if their location code has changed due to an incorporation or due to annexation into a public transportation benefit area (PTBA).
Criminal Justice Tax Distributions
The criminal justice tax is an additional local sales/use tax of 0.1 percent for criminal justice programs. The criminal justice distribution is based on population rather than location code. This tax is levied only by the county and is imposed county-wide, but the receipts are shared with the cities. Of the revenues collected for criminal justice, 1.5 percent is retained for administration. Of the amount remaining, 10 percent is distributed to the county and 90 percent to cities and counties on a per capita basis based on their official April 1 populations. Twenty-two of the thirty-nine counties now impose the 0.1 percent criminal justice tax.
Juvenile Detention Facility Tax Distributions
The juvenile detention facility tax of 0.1 percent was approved by the 1995 Legislature for the purpose of providing funds for juvenile detention facilities and jails in counties with populations less than one million. Each county must vote to approve the tax. It is levied only by the county and is imposed county-wide. Of the revenues collected, 1.5 percent is retained for administration and the remainder is distributed wholly to the county.
Baseball Stadium Fund Distributions
Engrossed House Bill 2115 provides funding measures for a baseball stadium in King County. Three sections of the bill that affect the taxes that certain King County businesses collect are explained below. These taxes are effective beginning January 1, 1996.
1. Section 101 establishes a new mechanism for sharing of the state retail sales and use tax that is derived from King County. King County is authorized to levy an additional local sales and use tax at a maximum rate of 0.017 percent. The proceeds of the tax are deducted from the 6.5 percent state tax; therefore, the consumer will not experience an additional tax burden. The proceeds will be diverted to the county as the state share for paying the principal and interest on bonds for the stadium.
2. Section 201(1) authorizes an additional local tax of 0.5 percent on food and beverages sold by restaurants, taverns and bars throughout King County. This tax is not deducted from other sales taxes, so it represents an additional tax for the consumer.
3. Section 201(2) authorizes an additional special stadium sales and use tax of 2 percent on car rentals that occur within King County. The tax rate for car rentals in King County will therefore be 17.1 percent which represents the total of the combined state and local retail sales tax (8.2 percent), statewide car rental tax (5.9 percent), optional King County car rental tax (1 percent) and special stadium sales and use tax (2 percent).
Transit Tax Distributions
Twenty-two cities, counties or transportation districts (PTBAs) levy a local sales and use tax for transit programs. The tax ranges in rate from 0.1 to 0.6 percent. After an administration fee of 1.5 percent is deducted, the remainder is returned to the transit districts.
Hotel/Motel Tax Distributions
The "regular" hotel/motel tax distributions, shown on pages 18 through 21, are for a local option tax of 2 percent on sales of hotel/motel rooms. The regular hotel/motel tax is not paid in addition to other state and local sales taxes. Instead, it is credited against the state's 6.5 percent retail sales tax. Cities can levy the regular hotel/motel tax within their corporate limits and counties can levy the tax in unincorporated areas and within cities that do not levy the tax. (There are two exceptions. The first is King County where the only city authorized to impose the tax is Bellevue and county government levies the hotel/motel tax throughout the entire county, including Bellevue. The second exception is in Yakima County where both the City of Yakima and the county levy the hotel/motel tax within the City of Yakima.)
A blank in the table beside a county name indicates the county does not levy the tax. Cities not levying the tax have been excluded from the table. Zeros indicate the city or county levies the tax but did not receive a distribution that month.
State law requires that data on individual taxpayers be kept confidential. To comply with this requirement, in the regular and additional hotel/motel tax distribution tables, a "D" indicates that the data cannot be disclosed because the jurisdictions have fewer than three taxpayers who report on a monthly basis. The amounts distributed for the hotel/motel tax have been aggregated in the category called "Ds" in the summary table at the bottom of page 21; they are not included in the total for the county.
Additional Hotel/Motel Taxes
The "additional" (also referred to as "special") hotel/motel tax distributions shown on page 22 are for hotel/motel taxes that have been authorized by statute for specific cities and counties for specific purposes. These taxes, which vary in rate from 2 percent to 3 percent, are paid in addition to all other state and local sales taxes.

I enjoy helping couples learn to communicate their wants and needs to one another affectionately and assertively. I use and give many relationship questionnaries and role play situations together to help couples communicate. I help couples learn to love themselves and one another. Using I feel statements rather than the demeaning You statements is a big key. Sometimes we need to look at past hurts and present feelings to help understand why couples do and say things innappropriately and ineffectively. Reducing stress in a relationhip and balancing work, duties and pleasure are also goals to work on.

Nice awning provides much needed shade
By G8rMom7
from Kissimmee, FL
We did have someone come to install because it's not the kind of thing you want to mess up. It's rather heavy so if you don't put the brackets in the right place, it could be bad. Ours slants a tiny bit when all the way extended. I am still not convinced that is not an optical illusion due the ground not being level. In any case, it is nice and sturdy and easy to retract or extend. Got a great price from BJ's that was much lower than anywhere else I saw it.

The veteran has started all six games for the Tornados, averaging 6.8 ppg and 6.5 rpg. The Tornados are 4-2 (0-1 SAC) heading into a 23-day break for the Christmas holiday. Brevard resumes their season December 29 in Marietta, Ohio against Emory & Henry.

Anyone who regularly drives southbound I-5 through Lynnwood and Mountlake Terrace is in for a smoother ride.
Preparatory work begins today on a project to repave this rough-and-rutted, 2-mile stretch of aging asphalt over the summer.
The $5.36 million work includes repaving the freeway from 52nd Avenue W. in Lynnwood to the Highway 104 exit at the King-Snohomish county line. Crews plan also to repave on- and offramps at Highway 104, 236th Street SW and 220th Street SW.
Crews plan to replace sidewalk sections and curbs at these ramps beginning today and start the paving work later this summer.
The drawback will be some weeknight closures of lanes in both directions and ramps during construction.
In addition to repaving, crews with Granite Construction of Watsonville, Calif., will add reflective lane markings to improve visibility. Work is expected to be finished by this fall.
Bob Stanaway Lake Stevens writes: I frequently travel Highway 92, just east of Highway 9 in Lake Stevens. A recent pavement patch job left a big dip on the left side of the eastbound lane. Being in paving for 30 years I can see no reason for it, except maybe for keeping me awake when I hit it on the way home from work. The dip is just west of 99th Avenue NE, where I have to take a left turn.
Dave Chesson, a spokesman for the state Department of Transportation, responds: Bob is correct, there is actually a small dip at this location near Stevens Creek, which has been caused by minor settling of the roadway. We put in a patch, but that was quite a while ago and further settling has occurred.
This summer our maintenance crews will grind and pave a larger area of both lanes. Smoother and longer-lasting asphalt repairs can only be done when it is warm and dry. Our work this summer should fix the dip and improve the ride for drivers.
County public works provides behind-the-scenes look: Beginning today, the public can get an unusual peek at roadwork and the many other jobs performed by the Snohomish County public works department.
Starting today, the county public works Flickr page is posting a four-day photo essay to showcase the work crews do throughout the year. Photos will feature a different division each day: road maintenance, solid waste, surface water management, engineering and transportation and environmental services. The page is located at www.flickr.com/snocopublicworks.
In addition to roadwork, crews handle all kinds of low-profile work around the county, from stormwater retention ponds to credit card payments at transfer stations.
The photo essay is posted in honor of National Public Works Week from May 19-23, sponsored by the American Public Works Association. The annual event began in 1960 to celebrate the contribution public works departments make to their local communities. For more information go to http://tinyurl.com/a89fgw5.
