At Juga the river again widened, and this was made a basis for excursions by land up the river.
They're going to land up there and taxi back on the surface of the water.
If the belt flew off I wasn't to grab it, or I'd land up at the ceiling.
But land up there where you are isn't worth a hundred dollars an acre!
All titles to land up to the 8th of March, 1869, conferred by the Company, are to be confirmed.
If, any claim-jumpers are about to stake out our land up there who is there left to stop them?
I am rather keen on geographical work just now, and theres a bit of land up here which wants exploring.
Now cut this land up into little, caviling factions, and where are we?
Dig vacant plots, and lay the land up in ridges in the roughest manner possible.
"There are some fences to take before we land up there," she said.
Old English land, lond, "ground, soil," also "definite portion of the earth's surface, home region of a person or a people, territory marked by political boundaries," from Proto-Germanic *landom (cf. Old Norse, Old Frisian Dutch, German, Gothic land), from PIE *lendh- "land, heath" (cf. Old Irish land, Middle Welsh llan "an open space," Welsh llan "enclosure, church," Breton lann "heath," source of French lande; Old Church Slavonic ledina "waste land, heath," Czech lada "fallow land").
Etymological evidence and Gothic use indicates the original sense was "a definite portion of the earth's surface owned by an individual or home of a nation." Meaning early extended to "solid surface of the earth," which had been the sense of the root of Modern English earth. Original sense of land in English is now mostly found under country. To take the lay of the land is a nautical expression. In the American English exclamation land's sakes (1846) land is a euphemism for Lord.
"to bring to land," early 13c., from land (n.). Originally of ships; of fish, in the angling sense, from 1610s; hence figurative sense of "to obtain" (a job, etc.), first recorded 1854. Of aircraft, attested from 1916. Related: Landed; landing.

E.ON successfully completes bond buyback
As announced last November, E.ON intends to use part of the proceeds from the sale of operations to reduce its group debt. In this regard, E.ON made a two-step offer to bondholders on 24 January to repurchase several bonds with a total nominal value of approx. € 7billion. The two-week term for the offer expired last Friday. In a first step, € 1.15billion of three bonds have been bought back. In the second week, E.ON then made another limited buyback offer of €650 million for three further bonds through an auction procedure. In this second step, E.ON bonds with a total nominal value of €777 million were tendered and E.ON accepted €656 million thereof. Only those bonds tendered at the minimum price offered by E.ON have been repurchased. As a result, bonds with a total nominal value of €1.81 billion have been bought back and E.ON's gross debt is reduced accordingly. On 8 February as settlement date, E.ON will thus successfully complete the largest bond buyback by a European corporate since the start of the financial crisis.
This press release may contain forward-looking statements based on current assumptions and forecasts made by E.ON Group management and other information currently available to E.ON. Various known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors could lead to material differences between the actual future results, financial situation, development or performance of the company and the estimates given here.

Rare photos of Indian guru on display
A woman looks at the unbound and unpublished photographs of French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson, curated by the Alkazi Foundation "Mastering the Lens: Before and After Cartier-Bresson in Pondicherry", at Alliance Francaise in New Delhi, September 19, 2012. REUTERS/Mansi Thapliyal
Artist Henri Cartier-Bresson's photographs of an Indian guru nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize and his French-born spiritual companion are on exhibit in New Delhi, offering a rare glimpse of life at the Aurobindo ashram in southern India.
More than 100 prints from a photo album purchased at a London auction by an Indian art collector are on display. The photos were taken just months before Sri Aurobindo, founder of the commune in the former French colonial town of Pondicherry, died in 1950.
Widely regarded as the father of photojournalism, Cartier-Bresson's fascination with India saw him capture remarkable images of Mahatma Gandhi's funeral in January 1948. Two years later, he undertook a lesser known project, becoming the first person in 30 years to photograph Aurobindo and his partner, known as the Mother.
The black-and-white photographs taken by the French master, who died at the age of 95 in 2004, show Aurobindo inside his bedroom, and the Mother interacting with devotees. In one series of Cartier-Bresson's images, the Mother, born Mirra Alfassa in Paris, is seen playing tennis.
"It's kind of an exploration of his more amateur side," Rahaab Allana, the exhibition's curator, said. "He's sort of a photographer in practice rather than an established photographer that we know Bresson to be."
The pictures had been kept out of public sight for decades. Some of the images were published in the British magazine Illustrated in 1951, but the Mother objected to the way Aurobindo was described in the accompanying article, with her personal secretary describing it as "unspeakably vulgar" in a letter sent to Cartier-Bresson.
As a result, the Mother bought all the photo negatives for $3,000 from Magnum Photos, the agency co-founded by Cartier-Bresson, and printed 50 albums that were sold to devotees.
"When you take those images and distribute them quite liberally, I guess the Mother felt that was not the original intention of taking the images," Allana said. "She wanted them to be a testimony and a chronicle of activities happening at the ashram itself."
In an interview in 1990, Cartier-Bresson explained that he was persuaded by Robert Capa, another photographer at Magnum, to sell the negatives because of financial difficulties at the agency.
It was "something I never did before in my life, and never did again," he said.
Allana believes the collection of photos on display at the Alliance Francaise cultural center is a "collaborative endeavour" between the Mother, who selected the images, and Cartier-Bresson.
Notes by the renowned photographer in his personal diary during the assignment are also on display, offering an insight into how he and the Mother, who died in 1973, were at odds on how to capture photos of the ashram and Aurobindo in his room.
The exhibition in New Delhi runs until September 30 and heads to Pondicherry, now known as Puducherry, in southern India later this year.

SANDUSKY — Warmer temperatures helped boost attendance at Cedar Point last month, reversing a slump caused by unseasonably cool and wet weather in the spring and early summer.
Cedar Fair LP, which owns the Sandusky amusement park, said attendance in August was up 4 percent over the same month last year. Attendance in July was down 3 percent.
Overall, attendance increased 5 percent last month at Cedar Fair's six amusement parks and five water parks. For the year, company-wide attendance is down 2 percent.
"As weather continued to improve over the past several weeks, attendance at several of our parks picked up nicely," said Dick Kinzel, chairman, president, and chief executive officer.

Huntington Beach, CA 92646
Best Of
At Huntington Beach Hot Yoga, instructor Jason Wilkerson has designed classes that include teachings from Bikram, Hatha Yoga and the Dayton Method. The 90-minute classes are set to music, a key difference from Bikram. There are numerous Bikram studios in OC, but the subtle changes from the norm at Huntington Beach Hot Yoga make it a unique experience. The prices are also very competitive, with an introductory rate of $20 for 20 straight days—that's $1 per class for you math whizzes. The packages here are also cheaper than most studios, with a yearly unlimited package for $997. The benefits of hot yoga are well-worth the price, as each posture stretches and strengthens specific muscles, ligaments and joints needed for improved health, energy and vitality. Designed to be performed in a specific order, the Bikram poses stimulate the organs, glands and nerves, moving freshly oxygenated blood to 100 percent of the body.

(CNSNews.com) – Fifty-three House members are demanding to know whether the April 6, 2012 and June 6, 2012 bomb-attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya were immediately included in the President's Daily Brief. These bombing attacks occurred before the fatal Sept. 11 terrorist attack that killed U.S. ambassador Chris Stevens and 3 other Americans.
"When was President Obama made aware of these two attacks on the Benghazi compound?" the letter asked. "Were these two attacks included in the President's Daily Brief immediately after the attacks took place?"
The Presidential Daily Brief is a daily national security and intelligence report provided to the president each morning by the Director of National Intelligence. It is the foundation of national security briefings.
The letter was sent to Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and signed by 53 House members on Nov. 2.
The letter, circulated by Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.) is in response to ongoing questions surrounding the Sept. 11, 2012 attack on the Benghazi compound. That deadly attack came after 230 security incidents in Libya, 48 of which happened in Benghazi from June 2011 to July 2012, the House letter said, citing the U.S. Embassy in Libya's Regional Security Office.
"On April 6, a bomb was thrown over the wall of the U.S. compound in Benghazi, causing some damage to an interior wall," the letter states. "The attackers were a contract guard and a former contract guard who had been recently dismissed for gross misconduct, specifically, for putting graffiti on U.S. government property."
"On June 6, an attacker placed a bomb on the ledge of the compound's perimeter wall, creating a large crater in the perimeter wall that was described as 'big enough for 40 men to go through,'" the letter states.
The letter went on to ask about security at the consulate and when President Obama knew about the previous attacks.
"What role did Ambassador Stevens' assessment of the security environment in Libya, the large number of security incidents, and their increase in sophistication and coordination play in the Department of State's security decision with respect to the U.S. compound in Benghazi?" reads the letter. "When was President Obama made aware of these two attacks on the Benghazi compound? Were these two attacks included in the President's Daily Brief immediately after the attacks took place?"
The letter referenced two cables from Stevens in which the ambassador asked the State Department for increased security in the region. On July 9, Stevens wrote, "Conditions in Libya have not met prior benchmarks established by Post, the Department [of State], and AFRICOM, for a complete drawdown of TDY [temporary duty]."
On Aug. 2, barely more than a month before he was killed, Stevens wrote the State Department, "the security condition in Libya remains unpredictable, volatile and violent."
CNSNews.com asked the White House over the phone and in an e-mail message if the April 6 and June 6 attacks were part of the President's Daily Brief. The White House did not respond as of press time.

Posted Sat 17th of March 2012
Richard is just on his way to a new job.
The Redhead
It was my first day back at work since I had lost my job. I was excited but my stomach was churning with nerves. I paced up and down at the bus stop waiting for my ride to my new job. I didn't have a car, I had to sell that to be able to afford to pay the rent. My girlfriend had left me, turns out when I wasn't making money I wasn't much good to her anyway, so this job was more than just a new job, it was a new start entirely.
I flagged the bus down, paid my fare and took one of the few remaining seats at the back. The butterflies in my stomach felt like they were trying to escape, I couldn't remember the last time I was this nervous. The bus grumbled along the road almost throwing me out of my seat as we bounced over pot-holes and cracks.
The sun beamed through the window. It was a beautiful summer day and I was sat on an overcrowded bus, wearing a black suit, melting into the seat. All of a sudden things weren't looking quite as good as I had initially thought, but that soon changed.
The bus pulled into a bus stop. I groaned as the faint breeze whistling through the window ceased. If I didn't die from the heat it would be from suffocation. There were so many people on the damn bus, and there was just about to be more. This was not a good day so far.
My mood lifted immediately as I looked to the front. There was only one person getting on, and the fact that there was so little room meant she had to sit near me. I silently thanked God and all the powers that be as the most beautiful redhead casually strolled to the back of the bus and took a seat at the back of the bus.
The back row of the bus consisted of five seats, I was in one corner, and she was in the other. Okay, in an ideal world she would have sat closer but still, bingo baby! I looked across at her, waiting to catch her eye, then smiled at her, she smiled back. A part of me started doing jumping jacks. I couldn't help but stare at her. Her beautiful red hair, adorable face, beautiful blue eyes, slender figure with nice perky breasts and curvy hips.
She was wearing a tanktop and hotpants so her long tanned legs were on display for the world. Not to mention the sexiest little feet I had ever seen with her toe nails painted a mesmerizing silver that caught the sun and sparkled like diamonds. She was truly perfect.
She caught me staring a couple of times and I quickly turned my head to face the front, but I couldn't help turning back when she turned away. I was captivated. She must have thought I was a right creep, but then again she was probably used to people staring at her everywhere she went.
"Hi there." I looked up, she was looking at me inquisitively. "Can I help you?" She asked.
"Um, er-" I was stuck for words. "I.. I'm sorry." I managed to mumble. Oh yeah real smooth. Moron. She moved front the corner to the seat in the middle. Ah crap I was in for it, she was going to scream at me for being a pervert on this bus of crowded people. My heart began to beat at an insane pace and I could feel the sweat forming on my forehead.
"I'm Kaisa." She smiled sweetly putting her hand forward to shake mine. I was stunned. He finger nails were painted with the same nail varnish as her feet. I shook her hand.
"I'm Richard". The words weakly crept from my mouth. Her hands were just as soft and smooth as I'd imagined. I thought about the feeling of them touching my body and almost came where I sat.
"It's nice to meet you Richard."
"Likewise." I said back smiling at her, but internally cursing myself for being such an idiot. Likewise? Who the hell says likewise.
"You're dressed up all smart, where are you off to?" She was moving closer to me now. I didn't know whether to be excited or terrified.
"Going to work." I mumbled, "First day at a new job." I was getting hotter, I could feel the sweat on my forehead building up. It wasn't going to be long before I was dripping.
"First day? You must be nervous." She placed her hand on my leg and started massaging my knee. She slowly slid her hand up my thigh "Perhaps you need something to calm you down." He hand continued to climb up my inner thigh. I took a deep breath and held. She moved her beautiful red lips right up the my ear and whispered, "perhaps I could help you get rid of those nerves." Her hand had reached it's destination. She was rubbing my crotch. My cock was throbbing in my pants and she rubbed me through my trousers. I held my breath longer, but not out of choice. I couldn't breathe.
I turned to face her and she planted a kiss straight on my lips. Holy shit, maybe it was a good day after all. Her lips were silky smooth and her tongue was soft as it pushed it's way through my lips and massaged my tongue. I kissed back with an immense passion I didn't know I had. Then she stopped.
"What wrong?" I asked, looking at her.
She pressed the buzzer on the pole in front of us. "Sorry this is my stop, I have to go."
I looked out the window. "Oh shit. I've missed mine."
She hadn't heard, she was already walking to the front of the bus. I got up and walked behind her. "Your stop too?" She asked.
"No, I missed mine."
"Oh god, I'm so sorry." She took my hand. "I hope I haven't made you late for your new job."
I shook my head, "It's fine, I left a lot earlier than I needed, I've got about an hour and half and it's only twenty minutes away."
She sighed. "Thank god for that."
The bus driver pulled into the stop and opened the doors. As we got off the bus she grabbed my hands. "So you have like an hour and a half until you have to be there?" She asked. I nodded. "come with me." She started dragging me across the road. She dragged me down a deserted alleyway and threw me against the wall. She launched herself at me and I found myself buried back into that passionate kiss we had started on the bus.
One of her hand cradled the back of my neck drawing me in as her other hand went to work undoing my belt and trousers. I gasped as her velvet smooth hands sank into my boxers and grabbed my cock. She continued passionately kissing me as she slid her hands up and down me, working a thick load of pre-cum out the end of my member.
The hand job began to flow smoother as the pre-cum dripped between her hand and my penis, he hand sliding perfectly up and down me. I could have cum right that second, but I forced myself not to, excited about where this was leading.
She stopped kissing me and I felt my trousers fall to my knees. No way! Was this going where I thought it was. The feeling of her tongue stroking my helmet confirmed what I had hoped. "Oh my god." The words came out of me before I could stop them.
"Is that nice?" I nodded and she carried on licking my tip. I began thrusting myself forward, and she picked up on the hint, wrapping her lips around my dick and sliding them right to the base taking my whole length in her throat. I almost my blew my load on her tonsils. This was amazing.
She slid her mouth back to the tip and carried on working just the first few inches of me while her right hand worked the rest. Her left hand gently massaged my balls and I was in a state of euphoria. This was without a doubt the best blow job I had ever had, and I never wanted it to end.
My heart sank as she stopped and stood up. She didn't have to go again did she. But as she leant forward and kissed me, I knew that was definitely not the case. I felt her pubic hair rubbing against the base of my shaft. I looked down and her hotpants and thong were were at her ankles. My turn to take control.
I turned us around so she against the wall got to knees, cocking her leg over my shoulder. Her pubic hair was the same gorgeous red and her hair and was kept neat. I could see her beautiful rosebud through the foliage and immediately went to work licking her clit. "Oh my god, don't stop. That's amazing" Her voice was shallow as she gasped for breath.
I carried on licking at her delicate pussy running my tongue up the lips, I could feel her leg starting to shake over my shoulder. She grabbed my head and buried my face into her mound. The sweet aroma of her pussy drawing me in. I lapped at it, tickling and sucking her clit. "Holy shit." Her voice was breathless. She looked down at me "Kiss me."
I obeyed. I took her leg off my shoulder and stood to kiss her. She wrapped her leg around my hip and pulled me close. I could feel her wet pubes rubbing against my shaft again as she violently kissed me. I felt her hand slide between us and grab my rock hard cock. She manoeuvred it so that it rubbed against her pussy, my helmet tickling her clit and running right back to her asshole as I thrust.
She stared into my eyes. "Fuck me right now." She demanded. I wasted no time lining myself up with her opening and sliding myself deep inside her. She gasped a huge moan of pleasure. I pounded at her pussy with all my might, trying desperately to hold back the torrents of cum I wanted to shoot inside her.
"Oh my god, fuck me hard." I did. She slid up on down my cock gasping and moaning until she came. She took a huge breath and wrapped her arms around me. "Oh fuck! I'm cumming." I felt her pussy begin to spasm around me nearly driving me over the edge. Her whole body began to shake. I carried on pounding at the pussy as she came. I felt her whole weight hand on my where the leg she stood on gave way, but I wasn't going to stop. I carried on pumping myself in and out of her until she stopped shaking. I pulled myself out of her and kissed her. "That was fucking incredible." She whispered in my ear. I smiled at her and turned her to face the wall. She knew what I had in mind, I didn't even have to tell her to bend over.
As I took position behind her I felt her hand reach through her legs and grab my cock. She lined it up with her pussy and I slid my entire length inside of her again. As I slammed her pussy I could feel my nutsack slapping against her clit and she gave a little moan everytime it did. I was so close to cumming, thinking of almost anything that would delay it. This was amazing, her pussy was so wet and tight. I never wanted it to end. Her hand slid over her back and she began tickling her puckered little asshole as I pounded her pussy.
"I'm so close." I muttered, bending slightly so she heard me.
"You wanna cum in my pussy?" She asked me turning her head round to me and winking.
"I'm not wearing a condom." A terrible excuse for such a beautiful girl, but I used it anyway.
"I don't care. There is no way in hell you're cumming anywhere except my pussy." Then she threw her head back. "Oh my god."
I could feel her pussy tightening again. She was cumming again and this was going to drag me over the edge with her. "Oh fuck." I gasped.
Her face turned back to me. "Fuck me. Oh my god cum in me." She began to slap her pussy back against my thrusts. "Cum in my pussy. Fill me up."
She stopped fingering her asshole and ran her hand back between her legs. She had hold of me. She was jerking me off as I fucked her. She glared at me. "Fill this cunt with your cum." It was a demand. I had to comply. I felt her pussy start to spasm around me again as her hand milked me. "Fill this cunt. Oh yeah, fucking fill me up."
She threw her head back again as her orgasm peaked. I could feel her whole body shake as I rammed myself deep inside of her, each time driving myself a little closer to the edge.
"Oh fuck! Cum in my cunt right this fucking second!"
She slammed her pussy back against me and that was it. "I'm cumming!" I gasped. Her hand carried on working every single drop out of me as my dick twitched inside her squirting string after string of spunk.
"Oh my god I can feel it. I can feel you filling me."
"I slammed myself as deep inside of her as I could as my orgasm came to an end. She had stopped shaking by now aswell and we both stood stationary. I held myself inside her feeling the warmth of her pussy hold me as I softened up inside of her.
I gently slid myself out of her and thick string of cum dripped into her pubic hair. She turned to face me, and wipped the cum front her pussy with her fingers and licked them clean. She pulled her thong and hotpants up over her hip, leant close to my ear and whispered "Have a good day at work." and then she left down the alleyway back onto the busy highstreet.
I never saw her again.

SOLD !!!!! 1992 H.O 4.0 engine $150
Engine is now sold - looks like the new owner is gonna build a stroker!
I have a H.O. 4.0 pulled from a 1992 Cherokee. 156,000 miles. Ran when pulled, though I would not consider it a pop in and run it sorta motor. Needs a rear main seal based on the oil all over it. I never drove with this motor, so cant really speak to its running condition, but did start it up (rather easily actually) after it had sat for around 8 months or so. According to prior owner, it had been parked because they could not get it to start - i think the entire issue was the park neutral safety switch and the shift cable not being adjusted properly. Includes intake manifold, throttle body etc. Exhaust manifold has a crack in it. Head is the higher flowing 7120 head . Located in Atlanta, MI (east of Gaylord 32 miles). Buy it along with some of the other stuff I have, I will try to make a good package deal for ya! Price reduced - was $250, now $150. I need this out of my way!

It has some of the accessories - not all (guess it depends on what you consider accessories!)
It has head, intake manifold, exhaust manifold (cracked), alternator - but I think it is froze up if i recall correctly - I may have a good one I can add in if needed, distributor (no cap), throttle body. water pump. I think I have the AC pump that came with it as well - can toss that in. Power steering pump is not on it (sold it separately). Valve cover is on it, but is dented at the back end of it- still useable though. I think that about covers it. Make the trip over from K Town to A Town this weekend, I will add in what ever stuff I have for this engine. Take my 2.5 stuff or other XJ stuff I have and I will make you a good deal on it all! |

Keira Knightley's Chanel ad too suggestive for kids' TV
KEIRA KNIGHTLEY's racy Chanel commercial has been banned during kids' TV programming due to its "sexually suggestive" content.
The advertisement for the French fashion house's Coco Mademoiselle fragrance shows the Atonement beauty being photographed on a bed before a male model unzips her clothes.
It has been shown on TV since 2011, but a concerned viewer recently complained to the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) after it was screened during the family film Ice Age 2.
Bosses at the ASA re-evaluated the times the promo is broadcast and have decided to ban it from being aired between children-focused shows and films.
A statement from the watchdog reads, "We considered the ad was suitable for older children, but that the sexually suggestive material was unsuitable for young children. We therefore concluded that the ad was inappropriately scheduled and an ex-kids restriction should have been applied to prevent the ad from being broadcast in or around children's programming."

updated Feb 14, 2013, 9:04 AM
Qualcomm today announced that more than 70 Snapdragon-based smartphones and tablets come with a technology called Quick Charge. Quick Charge 1.0 is a rapid-charging technology that Qualcomm acquired when it bought Summit Microelectronics. According to Qualcomm, devices with Quick Charge can reach a full charge up to 40% faster than devices that don't have Quick Charge. The technology is offered by Qualcomm to its hardware partners as an integrated solution with Qualcomm's power management circuits or a stand-alone USB interface controller. Some of the devices that have Quick Charge 1.0 already built in include the HTC Droid DNA and 8X, the LG Nexus 4 and Optimus G, the Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX HD, the Nokia Lumia 920, and the Samsung Galaxy S III among many others. Qualcomm said that it will reveal more details about its fast-charging technology in the coming weeks.

Children & Youth: Building tomorrow today
As young people mature, the decisions they make have an enormous impact on their families, their communities and our world. But growing up surrounded by poverty, war or in the aftermath of disaster increases their risks and limits their choices.
That's why giving children and youth the right support at this most critical time is essential to building tomorrow's strong, productive communities.
When disaster strikes, young children are especially vulnerable to developing emotional and social problems that can jeopardize their futures. Mercy Corps worked with experts to design our signature Comfort for Kids program that helps children process their trauma and recover through play, sports and art activities. See our expert's recommendations for how parents and caregivers can help children through times of crisis ▸
For adolescents faced with violence, early marriage and interruptions to schooling, we provide opportunities for community involvement, vocational training and life skills development. Our goal is to empower youth in the toughest places to make smart life choices and invest their energy in developing solutions to their countries' biggest challenges.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. -- The 7th ranked Christopher Newport University Captains dropped Virginia Wesleyan College (4-5) in an dominant and impressive defensive performance, holding the Marlins to just 10 second-half points and nine made field goals in the game. CNU improved to 8-1 overall this season with a 68-36 win against the cross-water rivals.
The Captains leaned on junior guard Kimmy Hopkins in the first half, as she led the way with 10 points in the first stanza, on 5-of-7 shooting. Senior center Barbara Davis also added seven points and six rebounds for CNU as they surged to a 12-point halftime lead.
Christopher Newport shot a scalding 60% from the field in the first half on 18-of-30 shooting, while Virginia Wesleyan shot just 18.8% on 6-of-32 shooting. The Marlins hung in, though, with a big advantage at the free-throw line, knocking down 10-of-12 at the charity stripe in the first half.
CNU would pull away quickly in the second half, though, as they continued to shoot well while keeping the Marlins away from the basket. Chelsie Schweers, the nation's leading scorer, was held to just two points in the first half but triggered a big run at the start of the second for CNU. She scored the first four points of the half and finished with 15 in the game to lead the way, despite playing just 21 minutes.
The defense really stood up in the second half, allowing the Marlins to convert just three made baskets. Virginia Wesleyan shot just 13% from the field on 3-of-23 shooting. The home team scored just eight points in the first 19:40 and got into double-figures on a Jocelyn Spencer layup with 20 seconds remaining in the game. For the game, VWC shot just 16.4% on 9-of-55 shooting, while CNU finished just shy of 50% from the field on 29-of-59 attempts.
Schweers' 15 points were a game-high, while Hopkins had 12 points on 6-of-9 shooting. Davis finished the game with seven points and eight rebounds and Tia Perry came off the bench to pour in eight points and six rebounds.
CNU will return to action at home this Sunday, January 2, as they take on Mary Washington in non-conference action. Tip is set for 2:00 pm at the Freeman Center.

Good Washer
By New homeowner
from Chicago, IL
Comments about Bosch 24" Ascenta Front Loading White Washer:
I use this product about once a week. I run it on normal cotton dry and it takes about 1hr 10min to run a load. Surprisingly, I can get an entire laundry basket's worth of stuff in the washer; it looks like it would be small but it does hold a large capacity.

It's Great Except for One Thing
By WeezE the Washer
The product is fine. I have no complaints about use, size, noise level, etc. My only complaint is the inability to use bleach in the machine. I have always used bleach to brighten my whites, so it's a big disappointment that this is no longer an option.I wish that important piece of information was included in the online description.So if you're one who does not use bleach, it would be a five-star rating for ya.

Great choice
By Cydpsyche
from Glen Ellyn, IL
I recently moved to a condo and purchased the pair of washer and dryer by Bosch. The machine has plenty of options for any type of clothing and is much quieter than the LG pair I had before moving in. The cycle is smooth and the only sound I hear is a not unpleasant whirring during the spin cycle. Unlike the LG I had, the Bosch does not get a musty odor when it is not in use. This can be solved by putting a washer through a cleaning cycle, but so far I have not needed to do this. I love the Bosch set and highly recommend it!

Why Did I Wait So Long!
By Dan Collins
from Chicago, Il
This washer is so different from conventional American machines they are not even in the same league. The quality is superior in every aspect. Our clothes have NEVER been so clean. This machine not only washes them far better, it extracts almost all of the water in the spin cycle so the dryer isn't baking in residual whatever. Clothes we have been wearing for years now look almost new! It is dead simple to use, quiet, and gives one options beyond our basic needs. The wool cycle will amaze you. Your sweaters have never looked or felt so good. This is the best washer ever made. Period.

( #3333=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) | Need Help?? |
Most of us have maintained plenty of "quick hacks" that the (long gone ...) original designers never imagined would become a full-fledged script. Or, likewise, dozens of quick-hacks that became in the aggregate a completely-unmaintainable full fledged system. And that is why, if you were hoping for a flame-war, you are not too likely to be rewarded with one. People around here understand implicitly what the consequences of hack-code are, because they have had to deal with it for a very long time. This is why they work as they do. Even if you intentionally put in words like "functional vs. elitist," you simply are not going to see this group dividing itself into two camps and bickering. Early in my career, I tried to fix the plumbing in my house. The corroded, galvanized fitting that my predecessor had attached to a copper piping system broke off in my hands. "OMG!!" I thought to myself, "I'm screwed!!" But the home improvement gods were smiling that day. The first guy who I called showed up immediately, fixed the problem in less than ten minutes, gratuitously checked the piping in the rest of the house, charged me $50 and left a stack of business cards. (I vividly remember his assistant innocently asking, "shall I turn the water on now to check for leaks?" With a calm but withering stare, he replied, "My work does not leak." The assistant hurriedly found something else to do.) I told that story and passed out business cards. In fact, I am still telling that story right now. What I desperately wanted, and could not do for myself, is what he very-professionally did. What I feared most was to him unthinkable. He could have charged me any price he named, and I would have paid it and never forgotten it. Well, I did pay the price he named, and I have never forgotten it. Ever since, and with every client we've ever had or will have, I have simply tried to copy the ways of that wise plumber. In reply to Re^3: Perl Elitist Code vs Functional Code

Air controllers will return to work under deal
WASHINGTON Furloughed air traffic controllers will soon be heading back to work, ending a week of coast-to-coast flight delays that left thousands of travelers frustrated and furious.
Unable to ignore the travelers' anger, Congress overwhelmingly approved legislation Friday to allow the Federal Aviation Administration to withdraw the furloughs. The vote underscored a shift by Democrats who had insisted on erasing all of this year's $85 billion in across-the-board budget cuts, not just the most publicly painful ones, for fear of losing leverage to restore money for Head Start and other programs with less lobbying clout and popular support.
With President Barack Obama's promised signature, the measure will erase one of the most stinging and publicly visible consequences of the budgetwide cuts known as the sequester.
Friday's House approval was 361-41 and followed the previous evening's passage by the Senate, which didn't even bother with a roll call. Lawmakers then streamed toward the exits – and airports – for a weeklong spring recess.
White House spokesman Jay Carney said Obama would sign the bill, but Carney complained that the measure left the rest of the sequester intact.
"This is a Band-Aid solution. It does not solve the bigger problem," he said. Using the same Band-Aid comparison, Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Wash., said that "the sequester needs triple bypass surgery."
The FAA and Transportation Department did not respond to repeated questions about when the controllers' furloughs would end. Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, who helped craft the measure, was told Friday by Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood that the agency is "doing everything they can to get things back on track as quickly as possible," said Collins spokesman Kevin Kelley.
The FAA said at least 863 flights delayed on Wednesday were attributed to the furloughs, with hundreds of others daily since the furloughs began last Sunday.
The bill would let the FAA use up to $253 million from an airport improvement program and other accounts to halt the furloughs through the Sept. 30 end of the government's fiscal year. The money can be used for other FAA operations, including keeping open small airport towers around the country that the agency said it would shut to satisfy the spending cuts.
The action means the Fullerton Municipal Airport tower, which had been among those targeted for closure, will remain open.
The move was hailed by groups representing the airline industry.
"The winners here are the customers who will be spared from lengthy and needless delays," said Nicholas E. Calio, president of Airlines for America, representing major carriers.
"While John Wayne Airport experienced minimal impacts from the sequester-related air traffic furloughs, it's good news that Congress has taken action to end the delays occurring across the U.S.," said John Wayne Airport spokeswoman Jenny Wedge.

Doesn't matter lol. what matters is what tires are you getting? If they don't have GINORMOUS sidewall/shoulder width like Goodyears do then 215/45 rear, 205/45 front. If you have more than a 12/13mm up front and are either at 23" or less than you can get away with a 205/40
Looking at your previous posts however you're definitely not ready for sub 23" life though lol, so just go 215/45 square with 512's or 612's. Discount Tire Direct is your friend

Well I have been driving at 24" for around 3 months now and sick of the height. I am thinking I'll be at or below 23" then I should be happy with it. spacers are 10mm in the front, none in the rear right now, but will be going for 20mm I'd say. I was thinking Falken 512's. I guess I'll just go with the 215/45 and 205/45. Thanks!
with the 205's up front of course
and be ready for serious rubbing in the rear with joining the 20mm in the rear club
but I can tell you right now you're going to be hating having only 10mm up front once you're that low as it becomes more apparent that it's not thick enough at those heights (trust me I'm having that problem with 12mm lol) so I'd recommend 13.5mm or 14 if you can find it.
8v Society #362
I put my 15mm spacers in the rear last weekend. now running 10mm front and 15mm rear and the 15 mm sits perfectly flush. Rubs when i have 2 passengers in the car though
8v Society #362
happy with front fitment with 5's for now, trying to decide on 12's or 15's for the rear, on 225 45's.... want stock tire setup, LOWWWWW, no rubbing... hoping either 12 or 15 wont rub at all

Medical Definition of HypergraphiaHypergraphia: The driving compulsion to write; the overwhelming urge to write. Hypergraphia may compel someone to keep a voluminous journal, to jot off frequent letters to the editor, to write on toilet paper if nothing else is available, and perhaps even to compile a dictionary. Hypergraphia is the opposite of writer's block. Temporal lobe epilepsy is associated with hypergraphia. This association has been known at least as early as 1974 (Waxman SG, Geschwind N. Hypergraphia in temporal lobe epilepsy. Neurology. 1974;24:629-36). A number of prolific writer may have had temporal lobe epilepsy, including Byron, Dante, Dostoevsky, Moliere, Petrarch, Poe, and Tennyson. Hypergraphia has also been called the midnight disease.

UK Press Release
04 May 2007 Coalition saves Iraqi Police General
RAF Tornado GR4 strike aircraft from 12(Bomber) Squadron, based at RAF Lossiemouth, Scotland, have been in action over Baghdad in direct support of the Iraqi Police Force. On a recent combat mission over the Sadr City District of Baghdad a pair of Tornados were directed to provide air support to an Iraqi Police General and his escort, under attack by insurgents.
Brigadier General Ali Al-Maksusi, an Iraqi Police Commander, was visiting Sadr City when he was ambushed by a large number of heavily armed insurgents. The General and his men were surrounded and under intense fire from insurgents armed with AK-47 assault rifles and rocket propelled grenades. The insurgents called on the Iraqi Police to lay down their arms so they could take the General prisoner or worse. Fortunately, the General was able to contact Coalition Forces who responded immediately.
The call for assistance was relayed to SrA "Donnie" , from Ft Bragg, the JTAC (Joint Terminal Air Controller) responsible for the area. He called for air support and immediately the Tornado GR4s responded. The JTAC quickly explained the critical situation and asked for a tactical demonstration to show the aircraft's presence and overwhelming combat power.
One of the Tornados, crewed by Flight Lieutenant Ben Cable and Flight Lieutenant Mike Morgan then performed a high-speed, low-level show of presence over the scene. The Iraqi Police and their opponents heard the faint sound of the aircraft which became piercingly loud as it flew low overhead, dispensing flares into the dark sky. The sudden appearance of the Tornado GR4, armed with a 27mm cannon and 1000lb GPS and laser guided bombs, was too much for the insurgents and they fled in fear. Brigadier General Ali said afterwards that the aircraft had "scared the all living grace of god out of the insurgents and they did not want to continue the fight". He also personally thanked the JTAC and the aircrew for saving his life.

We're all 17 but I'm hoping they'll still give us a room.

Pentaxs *ist 35mm Camera
Designated as the "Best 35mm SLR Camera in Europe, 2003-2004" by the Technical Image Press Association (TIPA), the *ist is the most sophisticated mid-range 35mm SLR camera that Pentax has ever produced. This ultra-compact and lightweight model was designed concurrently with the new Pentax digital SLR camera, and benefits from some of the technology developed for the *ist D. A new autofocus and light metering system plus a full 17 custom functions are the most significant upgrades over its XL-series predecessors. Thanks to these extras--and its many other capabilities--I found the *ist to be highly suitable for stock photography during ethnic and Renaissance festivals, a Native American powwow, and the action at an amateur go-cart race. |
And Features |
In spite of the apparent simplicity, the *ist was intended for the photo enthusiast, with its wide range of capabilities, detailed in the Specifications chart. Add the AF360FGZ accessory flash ($200), and the combination becomes particularly versatile with evaluative P-TTL flash metering, flash exposure compensation for varying output, high-speed flash sync, second curtain sync for light trails that follow (instead of precede) a subject, and wireless remote TTL flash for creating more professional lighting effects.

Yesterday, on Best of the Web (about the Romney "birther" dog whistle, James Taranto wrote:
The thing we adore about these dog-whistle kerfuffles is that the people who react to the whistle always assume it's intended for somebody else. The whole point of the metaphor is that if you can hear the whistle, you're the dog.
Yet he actually ciotes such a dog whistle:
In his 2004 speech accepting the Democratic presidential nomination, John Kerry* asserted: "Let's never misuse for political purposes the most precious document in American history, the Constitution of the United States." A platitude to the ordinary ear was an endorsement of same-sex marriage at 30 kilohertz.

PCD, Democrats hear ANYTHING about ANYTHING and they think it's about race.
They're obsessed with it for some reason, so they see it everywhere, and can't comprehend that it matters only to them.

Feets, how do they manage to do that? By having a grocery attached, so they can ring up the meal as if it were for groceries?
Milhouse (c39d3f) — 8/28/2012 @ 2:38 pm
Milhouse, I think some restaurants accept ebt, like some Subways out here in Cali do (or so I've heard)
It's a state by state thing.

In Oregon, the only prepared food you can buy with food stamps is Take-n-Bake pizzas. I always thought they should run food stamps like WIC: here's a list of food you're allowed to get, the size, and the quantity.
Ghost (6f9de7) — 8/28/2012 @ 3:33 pm
EBT in restaurants? At least it's "reasonably" priced food. I'll top that.
How about all of the convenience stores here (Washington) with signs popping up: "Now accepting EBT"?
Steve (492627) — 8/28/2012 @ 4:06 pm
Since EBT cards aare also used for things like unemployment benefits, do you guys really think that unemployed folks should have their purchases limited to "approved" items?
Kevin M (bf8ad7) — 8/28/2012 @ 4:16 pm
With regard to Biden's dog whistle comment, at least Charlie Rangel was bold enough to call him out on it. Some people hear the dog whistle because it actually is what is being denied.
"The Vice President said he's going to put "y'all in chains,'" Mr. Rangel told The Perez Notes in a recent free-wheeling interview. "Was he talking about slavery? You bet your ass he was. Was he using the vernacular? Yes, he was. Did he think it was cute? Yes, he did. Was it something stupid to say? You bet your life it was stupid.""It was something that if a black had said it, we would have been laughing, because we would know deep down, they may be beating the hell out of us but they ain't thinking about putting us into any chains," he added.

Yes, Kevin, that is exactly what I expect. Especially when our First Lady is preaching her drivel about eating right, and we hear so much about the poor being overweight. How are you overweight if you don't get enough to eat because you are poor?
Add to the fact that children on free lunch in schools come from a majority of families that receive food stamps, which means they get food stamps based upon a size of the family, then the children eat a third of their meals away from home, so we are paying for food twice.

Comment by Kevin M — 8/28/2012 @ 4:16 pm
Since EBT cards are also used for things like unemployment benefits,
That's not so good. Cash is still needed for some things, particularly fruit, and things bought in many 99 cent stores. And rent and utility bills, where even if they would be accepted, there's a surcharge.
And can you pay a credit card bill with an EBT card? Or tip someone.
Unless they get the whole card. A part time or maybe volunteer Rabbi (NCSY-Dallas) wrote in the Jewish Press this week that he bought a $50 Chick-Fil-A gift card to give as a tip to his postal carrier (are we allowed to?) because of this controversy and because he likes what he stands for, even though his family is in the meat business (he's CEO of AD Rosenblatt Kosher Meats, founded by his great grandfather in Galveston Texas in 1910, that would be nine or ten years after the hurricane) he had a problem with this company because they have these billboards of good looking cows imploring people to eat chicken instead of beef – implying that it is more humane to eat chicken than beef. And on top of that, the cows in the picture are Holsteins which are used for milk and not meat!

Yes, Kevin, that is exactly what I expect. Especially when our First Lady is preaching her drivel about eating right, and we hear so much about the poor being overweight. How are you overweight if you don't get enough to eat because you are poor?
Because pasta is really cheap, unlike fish and meat and fruit. At least if you buy fruit in a supermarket.
And you could add milk, except it is often government policy to drive up the price.
Add to the fact that children on free lunch in schools come from a majority of families that receive food stamps, which means they get food stamps based upon a size of the family, then the children eat a third of their meals away from home, so we are paying for food twice.
Food stamps are now basically supplemental income, because unlike the way it was at first, no cash is needed to by food stamps.
Sammy Finkelman (a69e24) — 8/29/2012 @ 12:00 pm
Originally , let's say a family food budget was calculated at $114 – a person paid X number of Dollars to get the $114 worth of food stamps. Now they just get the difference. This changed rather early on, in the 1970s – after all it was requiring poor people to come up with money up front.
Food stamps were replaced with debit cards (usually doubling as a Medicaid card) sometime after the year 2000.
The Obama campaign is saying that what the Ryan plan really would destroy is not so much Medicare as Medicaid. Of course that's being destroyed all along or a good number of years (by low reimbursements, compared to other payers)
Sammy Finkelman (a69e24) — 8/29/2012 @ 12:08 pm
If you make it a block grant and turn it over to the states and then reduce the block grant or refuse to increase it, something has got to give.
Sammy Finkelman (a69e24) — 8/29/2012 @ 12:10 pm
You could try cutting down on waste fraud and abuse, but that's expensive.
Bean counters will count the upfront money but not estimate any savings.
Sammy Finkelman (a69e24) — 8/29/2012 @ 12:12 pm
So attempting to cut down on waste fraud and abuse will make it harder to balance state budgets.
Cutting back on eligibility or services does get counted.

I don't know how I'd feel about eating a dog.
The horse I had mixed feelings about.

Is this really surprising? I understand Democrats were also organizing a network to spot negroes who escaped the plantation.
Yo, Democrats… the U.S. Civil War ended almost 150 years ago. You lost.

Spurs' Tony Parker leaves game with ankle injury
For about 15 minutes while they waited for word on Tony Parker's status, the Spurs saw their season flash before their eyes.
For about 15 minutes while they waited for word on Tony Parker's status, the Spurs saw their season flash before their eyes.
Parker left San Antonio's game Friday against the Kings in the third quarter and headed straight for the locker room, but was diagnosed with a sprained left ankle. He did not return.
Via the San Antonio Express-News, Gregg Popovich wasn't optimistic.
"It's a good one," he said. "He'll be out a while."
Parker could miss a few games, but the injury initially appeared to be potentially catastrophic. Parker came down awkwardly and appeared to be grabbing more at his leg and not ankle. He wasn't able to put weight on it as he was helped off the floor.
Parker, 30, is averaging 21.1 points and 7.6 assists in 55 games this season.

US Department of Labor announces opportunity for states to develop innovative demonstrations of re-employment strategies
WASHINGTON The U.S. Department of Labor today announced guidance for state demonstration projects to identify innovative strategies that quickly connect unemployed workers with good jobs. Today's announcement is a key component of the first major overhaul of the Unemployment Insurance system in decades, made possible by the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 signed by President Obama in February.
From extending unemployment benefits that help families weather the recession to creating new skills training programs for those seeking jobs, the administration is committed to rebuilding an economy which ensures that Americans who work hard and play by the rules have the ability to realize economic security and the American dream. Last fall, the president called on Congress to act immediately to continue tax relief for virtually every working American; to reform the Unemployment Insurance system to better connect Americans with work, while also extending benefits for those who continue to pound the pavement looking for work; and to enact policies that will lay the foundation for future growth. These reforms to the Unemployment Insurance program aim to help American workers and our economy by reducing layoffs, fostering entrepreneurship and reducing the time it takes for unemployed workers to get back into jobs.
As a result of these reforms, up to 10 states will be able to use administrative funding or apply for a waiver to use Unemployment Insurance Trust Funds to implement and evaluate programs that expedite the ability of people to return to work.
"This administration is committed to finding new and innovative ways to turn the unemployment system into a re-employment system, and state programs can play a crucial role in doing so," said Secretary of Labor Hilda L. Solis. "These projects will help improve services, lower costs and provide crucial worker protection measures to ensure that employers who follow the rules are able to compete on a level playing field."
Approved states will conduct projects that demonstrate and evaluate measures to expedite the re-employment of individuals who are eligible to receive unemployment compensation, or projects that improve the effectiveness of a state in carrying out its state law with respect to re-employment. Projects can provide wage subsidies for employer-provided training, or direct disbursements not to exceed the weekly benefit amount of an individual, to employers who hire those receiving unemployment compensation.
The demonstration projects will be selected on a rolling basis. The guidance released today provides details on the application process, activities that may be pursued, the requirements for obtaining a waiver of the withdrawal standard or methods of administration requirements in existing law, and the requirements for evaluation of the demonstration projects.

Well, don't we feel stupid! Here we were, not two hours ago, writing about how weird we are for wearing Old Spice deodorant, while across the country Lady Gaga was dreaming up a new perfume line meant to smell like BLOOD and SEMEN — which very well may be the world's worst possible scent (though a potential sponsor for MTV's Skins).
Seriously, this news is super gross. So Gaga, we implore you: Before you commit a factory of people to living out their working hours in a dark lair infused with gallons of period sex, here are some better olfactory options for your consideration:
1. The New Jersey Turnpike: On a hot summer's day if you insist.
2. Essence of Raw Meat: Did you happen to keep that VMAs dress around?
3. Eau de Four Loko: Or is that more of a Ke$ha thing?
4. Eau de Water: Cheap, easy, and palatable to everyone.
5. Like maybe flowers or something?
6. Bubbles! Seriously, we would wear bubbles.
7. Don't Ask Don't Tell: It's a secret! (But probably flowers or something.)

CHARLESTON, SC - Mike Veeck, who is credited with helping revitalize Minor League Baseball with his "Fun Is Good" marketing approach, will be one of nine new members in the Florida State League's 2013 Hall of Fame class when the league holds their induction ceremony on November 12 at the Plaza Resort and Spa in Daytona Beach.
Veeck joined The Goldklang Group in November of 1989 and immediately energized the Florida State League. Creating numerous promotions meant to entertain fans and enhance the ballpark experience, Veeck joined the Miracle as the team's President in 1990. Then located in Pompano Beach, Veeck was intimately involved in the transition to Fort Myers prior to the 1992 season.
With a vision for fun at Hammond Stadium and a mission to take care of every fan, Veeck's legacy remains a strong part of the Miracle operating philosophy. In 2005, Veeck was recognized as one of the 25 most influential people in baseball over the last quarter-century. He has advised several companies and has been profiled in stories on 60 Minutes and in numerous magazines.
A third-generation baseball executive and team owner, Veeck was the innovator behind the infamous Disco Demolition Night while working for his father, Bill Veeck, and the Chicago White Sox in 1979. Veeck has also worked in marketing positions with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, Florida Marlins and Detroit Tigers.
Veeck authored the book Fun is Good: How to Create Joy and Passion in Your Workplace, which describes how this simple philosophy leads to success in any business. Currently a part owner in a number of Minor League Baseball teams, Veeck resides in Mount Pleasant with his wife, Libby.
An inductee as an executive, Veeck is joined in the 2013 Florida State Hall of Fame class by Ron Myers from the Lakeland Flying Tigers. Players in this year's class include Al Nipper, Ramon Martinez, Jimmy Rollins and David Wright. Current Baltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter and Detroit Tigers Minor League Field Coordinator Bill Dancy along with MLB umpire Jerry Layne will also be part of the ceremonies as inductees.
Veeck joins principal owner of the Fort Myers Miracle, Marv Goldklang, in the Florida State League Hall of Fame. Goldklang was inducted in 2010 and serves as the Chairman of The Goldklang Group. The Goldklang Group owns and operates four minor league baseball franchises: the Fort Myers Miracle, Charleston RiverDogs, St. Paul Saints, Hudson Valley Renegades, as well as the Futures Collegiate Baseball League Pittsfield Suns.
He was enshrined in the South Atlantic League Hall of Fame in 2006.
"Mike has been my partner and friend for nearly 25 years and deserves the credit for much, if not most, of what we've been fortunate enough to achieve in Ft. Myers over the years," said Goldklang. "He is most deserving of this very special honor."

Northern Exposure
Guest Host Sebastián Zubieta Shares the Music of Canada
Tuesday, June 01, 2010
This week, we turn our ears towards the north and explore the achievements of Canadian composers. Canada is nowadays very fertile ground for new music and a steady stream of imaginative compositions flows from our neighbors to the north.
We listen to music by established and emerging composers, from Hugh LeCaine's early electronic music to pieces written in the last few years. We also feature the fascinating music (for piano and small ensembles) of Henry Cowell, shine a spotlight on recent (and not so recent) music for guitar, and test the waters of Veli-Matti Puumala's varied repertoire.
All this spiced up with Ars Subtilior, some Feldman, and a weeklong spotlight of composer and Slow Six bandleader, Christopher Tignor. As always, please leave your thoughts on the music!

Tough Interview Questions and Answers
What character flaws do you have?
Alternative and related questions:
Do you have any personality defects?
The meaning behind the question:
This is an aggressively phrased – and potentially very leading – question. The interviewer is trying to force you to expose a major weakness. It's not too dissimilar to their questioning you about your weaknesses except that it's a much broader question – and a much more personal question. While they will obviously be interested in any personality defects you may have, their main purpose in asking you this question is to put you in a difficult situation and see how you handle it.
Your answer:
It would most likely be a fatal error to respond directly to this question and start talking about something which is inherently going to be very negative. While declaring that you have no weaknesses would be excessive, it is perfectly reasonable to state that you don't feel you have any character flaws. You can instead sidestep the question so as to talk about a more minor weakness and, as always when discussing potentially negative points, make sure you put some spin on it so as to turn a negative into a positive.
Everybody's character is different of course but I don't believe I have any major character flaws. I suppose I can, on occasion, be overly demanding – both of myself and members of my team. I can be very critical of my own work and I expect those under me to work to the same standards. I am nevertheless a patient individual and am prepared to give members of my staff a reasonable chance. Everyone makes mistakes – the important thing is never to make the same mistake twice.

You must surely have more than one weakness?

W.F. City Officials Planning for Stage 4 Restrictions
The City of Wichita Falls has never reached Stage 4 restrictions.
While Stage 3 restrictions are in effect a special committee is turning to several businesses to find out what additional regulations will be enforced.
Wichita Falls lawns and gardens are not looking as green and lush, now that Stage 3 water restriction are in effect.
And as each day without rain goes by and the lakes fall lower, city officials and water committee members are now planning for the worse.
"The Water Resources Committee, which is a standing sub-committee of the city council, has been meeting over the course of the last 30 days to start developing those very specific stage four restrictions that will come into play this summer," says Daniel Nix, operations manager for the Wichita Falls Public Works Department.
That committee has been getting input from businesses that use lots of water.
Including Katherine Smith of Smith's Gardentown Farms.
She says she told the committee lawns could go without watering, but not trees.
"If we lose our trees we lose a great economic asset as well as posing a danger. Those dead trees can fall on a house or car or something and really be dangerous until they're all taken down," Smith says.
Smith says there are plant varieties that thrive in little water.
And when it comes to little water, Stage 4 restrictions would cost more than just residents.
"The surcharges will be going up also for residential and we will be developing surcharges for commercial rates, which we currently do not have in Stage 2 and Stage 3," explains Nix.
The Water Resources Committee has spoken with owners of car washes, pool companies, restaurants and other businesses that use lots of water.
City Operations Manager Daniel Nix says that committee will finalize it's recommendations for Stage 4 restrictions in the next few weeks and make a presentation to city councilors by early May.
And in case you're wondering, according to Stage 4 restrictions, outdoor use of water for non-essential use would be totally banned.
