Updated at 1:45 p.m. May 2 with city council comments.
The Washington Department of Ecology announced Monday that it has approved the Edmonds Shoreline Master Program comprehensive update that was submitted by the City of Edmonds following a long debate by the Edmonds City Council over Edmonds Marsh buffers.
"Finally!" stated City Councilmember Diane Buckshnis upon hearing the news. "It has been a very long and detailed process that involved the collaborative efforts of many individuals." Buckshnis, who had been a strong advocate of a wider marsh buffer, specifically offered thanks to city staff involved in the project — including Development Services Director Shane Hope, Senior Planner Kernen Lien and City Attorney Jeff Taraday — as well as the Department of Ecology "and of course our citizens scientists."
The Shoreline Master Program guides construction and development on local shorelines. Edmonds has six miles of shoreline along Puget Sound, Lake Ballinger and the Edmonds Marsh. Washington's Shoreline Management Act requires local governments to adopt these plans, which establish environmental designations for different types of shorelines, including buffers and setbacks that protect ecological conditions.
The final two years of the update process, which started in 2006, focused on protections for the Edmonds Marsh, between the waterfront and downtown. Ecology's approval of the Edmonds Shoreline Master Program update includes Option M, adopted earlier this year by the city council. It establishes two approaches for protecting the marsh:
Under Option M, no structures may be built within a 110-foot buffer around the marsh and a 15-foot setback from the buffer. A developer may propose an alternate buffer width based on site-specific ecological studies, subject to city council review and approval.
"I am very pleased the Washington Department of Ecology accepted our City Council's proposal to protect our marsh and wildlife," added Councilmember Mike Nelson, who along with Buckshnis had worked with City Attorney Taraday to develop Option M, along with a proposal for a city council-funded baseline study of the marsh.
"I really appreciate our council came together after long deliberations and voting unanimously for these changes to the Shoreline Master Program," Nelson said. "And I am grateful for the valuable input we received from our residents, business owners and city staff."
According Monday's announcement, Ecology concluded that option M provides adequate flexibility to recognize the current urbanized condition of the Edmonds Marsh buffer, and is consistent with the shoreline act's intent of the protecting ecological functions and offsetting environmental impacts of future development.
"We received a great deal of input throughout this process," said Joe Burcar, Ecology's regional shorelines program supervisor. "We appreciated the keen interest in the marsh shown by citizens, property owners and the city. Option M reflects the community's strong interest in protecting the marsh while also satisfying state standards."
In addition to addressing the Edmonds Marsh, the Edmonds Shoreline Master Program increases protection of near-shore habitats, maintains public shore access in city parks, and guides development of future public access. It also incorporates existing regulations for critical areas, including mitigation requirements and wetlands and habitat protection.

One of the most compelling aspects of style sheet positioning is that it introduces a third axis. So far, you've worked with the x- and y-axes, or horizontal and vertical. When you use the z-index property, as in the following example, the Z Order brings a third dimension, allowing for a dimensional relationship to now exist between elements:
P { position: absolute; top: 175px; left: 330px; z-index: 1; }

Inspiring Quilters, Stitch by Stitch
If you're a REAL quilter, you have at least one UFO (unfinished object) and one WIP (work in progress) stashed in the closet or stacked on a shelf. Maybe you just need quilting suggestions, or maybe a fresh eye from a new online friend can help with block arrangements. How about a UFO swap? Any UFO conversation is welcome.
Website: http://myquiltplace.com/groups/ufos
Members: 262
Latest Activity: on Thursday
The applique is a mixture. It was a swap quilt. I do my best not to do much by hand. I even cheat and sew the binding if I can get away with it. A couple of the blocks are hand applique, but most of them are fusible fussy cut and the embroidered. The tail on the bull is hand sewed on. It is so cute in person.
I have new pictures up on my album on Facebook. I am under the same name there. Mary L Nash (gigi). Please feel free to look.
I'm with you Mary.....I also have 'finish envy'. I am so happy for you that your plan is coming together Beth. Unfortunately for me.....life is getting in my way! But I will be up and running soon. I had a few minutes this morning before taking my sister to her Dr. appt and I did finish a short robe that I have had around for two years. So I guess I can say that is one off the list ( a list I haven't yet made,lol) Great Job everyone......keep going!!!! Best of luck Lois with your surgery.
I think that is how I ended up with so many ufos is because so many things came up and different quilts and contests I entered. I put these on the back burner and now they multiplied. Now with the new goals, set up a system that will help you reach that goal. Put the plan to work so you can get there. That is what I had to do and has helped so much.
Congratulations Beth on getting all 10 goals completed. That is wonderful.
Deanna, I am with you, something always comes up that HAS to be done. Setting new goals for this go around.
That's a good goal. My problem is something comes up that I HAVE to do in between, so that gets done and then I go back to my 'list'. In fact, I'm still working on my daughter's new Christmas theme LOL Getting back to that as there's not much left to do and I can send it to her. I've got to let housecleaning just jump off my list !!
I need to get done so I can start something new by the beginning of next year. There are a few of my UFOs that are kits so they will be something new during this whole goal of all completed.
Beth A. North, you are on a roll. I like what you have shown us. Sure wish I hda more finished. I have "finish Envy".
The pie was from 8 years ago, two cat pincushions, one is with shreds of material and cotton batting and the other is walnust shells cut out two years ago, the doll quilt, lets not go there I know why I did not want to finish it, and the nice farm #2 quilt. I love how it looks with the bright green border. So happy. Now onto next month, oh this month March. Lets all march forward to our finish of at least one for each of you and I will get to my 10 for sure.

Expedition Overview
Our climb of Mera Peak is a true mountaineering adventure. The peak is situated in the remote and unspoiled Honku Valley, known for its isolated glaciers and formidable high mountain passes. Our ascent takes us over 21,000 feet as we're rewarded with spectacular scenery and ultimately one of the finest viewpoints in the Himalaya. Five of the six highest peaks on earth are present including Everest, Kanchenjunga, Lhotse, Makalu and Cho Oyu. By its standard route from the Mera La, the ascent is technically straightforward; however, after a heavy snow fall or when the maze of crevasses are open, the way can be long and demanding. Above average physical conditioning and basic mountaineering skills are necessary.
Mera Peak Climb • 21 days
The expedition begins by flying into the heart of the Everest Region to the village of Lukla. Shortly our route takes us over a high mountain pass into the remote Honku Valley. It's a great climb for those seeking to get away from the heavily traveled Khumbu Valley and chance to venture into a little visited region of Nepal; where the hillsides are still densely forested and self-sufficiency is essential. After climbing Mera Peak, we will follow the trail to Rato-odar, Panch Pokhari and cross the renowned Amphu Laptsa pass down to Chukkung and proceed along the classic Everest route to Tengboche Monastery. We arrive in Namche Bazaar the main trading center of the Sherpa people and return to Lukla along the banks of the Dudh Koshi passing small Sherpa farming villages.
Mera Peak & Islands Peak Climbs and Everest Base Camp • 24 days
This adventure combines a climb of Island & Mera Peak with a classic trek to Everest Base Camp. For most trekkers, the very thought of seeing Mount Everest from Kala Patar or standing at the base of the Khumbu Icefall is a dream come true. During the spring climbing season our trek stays one night at Everest Base Camp. Our expedition allows more time for acclimatization increasing your chance of completing the journey.

In regards to your departure flight, our return time to the program start location is often unpredictable. We suggest a hotel reservation for the night of the last day and plan to return home the day after the end of the program.
What if I want to arrive early or depart later than the program? Mountain Gurus can assist in arranging accommodations before or after the program. Our Operations Director can recommend things to do if you desire.
Will a Mountain Gurus agent greet me at the airport? For International programs depending on your arrival time, we coordinate ground transportation. We either greet you at the airport or arrange transportation to your hotel. In most cases the program formally begins the morning after arrival day.
Do you recommend trip cancellation insurance? Mountain Gurus highly recommends purchasing of trip cancellation and travel insurance. This comprehensive travel insurance provides coverage for trip cancellation and interruption, travel delays, loss of baggage and travel documents, baggage delays, medical expenses and emergency assistance.
Do I need any other insurance? Make sure you provide yourself adequate traveler's medical and evacuation insurance for coverage should you have a problem during the trip.
Should I have concerns when traveling internationally? We recommend registering with the United States Department of State when traveling anywhere internationally. Registration is voluntary and is your sole responsibility. Also, the United States Department of State maintains a travel Warning/Alerts list for most countries around the world. www.travel.state.gov
Experience and Fitness
What are climbing and trekking grades? Mountain Gurus provides climbing and trekking grades to help our client choose which programs are best suited for their experience level, knowledge of climbing and overall physical conditioning. Mountain travel can be extremely challenging yet profoundly rewarding. We offer programs of various skill levels and difficulty. Regardless which program you choose we expect our clients to be physically and mentally prepared for the demands of the journey.
Can anyone participate on your MG programs? We feel that anyone in reasonably good physical fitness should be able to join us on many of our programs. Mountain Gurus guides will introduce basic trekking and climbing skills needed during the course of the program. Remember your ability to participate in the program is largely dependent upon your overall health and fitness. An expedition, trek or climb shouldn't be taken lightly and we encourage you to prepare for it by physically conditioning yourself for the strenuous aspects of the program. We strongly advise anyone who is considering a climb with Mountain Gurus, who may have a medical condition or medical history that may affect their performance, first consult with their physician. If you have further questions or concerns please contact us and our Operations Director can discuss which program is best suited for you.
Domestic & International Programs
How can I find out about necessary visas or entry requirements for the country I am visiting? Mountain Gurus will send you all necessary visa information contained within our pre-departure package. In most case American citizens can obtain a visa upon arrival. It is your responsibility to send in all pre-required visa applications and associated fees. In addition most countries maintain websites that provide all necessary information and application forms.
How can I find about necessary immunizations for the area where I am traveling? As part of your itinerary, we'll provide you with current recommended/required immunizations for the country where you are traveling. You can always consult the Center for Disease Control at www.cdc.gov
Can I hire an additional porter? On International programs Mountain Gurus can arrange hire of a personal porter if desired for an additional cost. Please notify MG in advance if you're considering a personal porter.
Can additional gear or clothing be stored during the program duration? In most cases additional items can be stored at the hotel or with our ground operator.
What type of accommodations can I expect?
Hotels: During our stay in international destination cities you can expect to stay in high quality hotels. When available we opt to stay in smaller boutique style hotels that provide a friendly atmosphere and high quality experience.
Camping or Lodges: When camping we provide our clients with high quality mountaineering tents. Depending on the expedition or climb clients participate in setting up tents and help in establishing camp as well as participate in cooking. On Treks and Tours, Mountain Gurus provides our clients with a fully supported experience, your tent will be set up and waiting when you arrive in camp and you'll be greeted with hot water and a cup of tea. Destinations like Nepal we often opt to stay in high quality lodges (also known as Tea Houses) as an alternative to camping. Due to our local knowledge we choose from the finest lodges available which provide great food and a friendly warm environment.
Do you provide single accommodations? International programs that include hotels, a single room supplement is available for an additional cost if desired. For those traveling alone who do not wish to pay an additional cost for a single room, we will pair you in a room with another same-sex team member. In the event another team member of the same sex is not available for room pairings, you will be assigned a single room. During Northwest climbs single tent accommodations are not available.
How heavy a pack do I need to carry?
On Northwest programs you will be required to carry a portion of the group gear and food, in addition to your personal gear. This should be taken into consideration when deciding what you should bring. Be prepared to carry between 40-65 lbs. depending on the length of the program and group size.
For International programs pack weight varies greatly depending on the type of program. On our fully supported Treks and Tours you will only be expected to carry a small to medium sized day pack with each trekking day's necessary clothing and essentials. 15-30 lbs. Expeditions will be required to carry a portion of the group gear and food in addition to your personal gear. 40-65 lbs. On fully supported Expeditions we utilize high altitude climbing porters which greatly minimizes the need to carry group gear. 35-50 lbs.
Private and Custom Programs
I have a group of family/friends/colleagues and we have specific dates we would like to climb. Can you customize a program for us? All of our programs can be run on a private basis. The beauty of a private program is you climb what you want, with who you want, when you want. We'll take care of the entire program. We are also able to provide you with a custom itinerary depending on your interests. We may require a $100 non-refundable deposit for custom program planning which will be applied towards your program cost at the time of reservation.
Does Mountain Gurus rent equipment? We do provide limited rental gear on our Northwest programs. All rental gear is limited and needs to be reserved and paid in advance. See Northwest Climbs and Courses for details. Currently we do not rent any equipment for international programs. Also, many local climbing and outdoors stores rent gear for reasonable rates.
Rental items include: Ice Axe, Crampons, Harness, Helmet
Where should I buy equipment? We can help you find a local climbing and outdoor shop where you can purchase the equipment you'll need.
Is it customary to tip your support staff or mountain guide? On international programs where we utilize support staff (porters, cooks, kitchen staff, etc.); it is Mountain Gurus practice to take a group tip and divide it among the support staff. Tipping of Mountain Guides for a job well done is always appreciated.
How can my family get in contact with me when I'm on a on a Mountain Gurus program? After your application and deposit are accepted; you will be provided with a detailed itinerary which will include hotel and ground outfitter contact information for your program. Due to the nature of the wilderness areas we travel it is likely you will be out of contact during the duration of the program. Telephone and internet access is available in some destinations at you own expense.
What if my spouse, family or friends don't climb; can they still join me on safari? We would be delighted to make arrangements for non-trekking family and friends to join you after the climb. We suggest you extend your safari a few days to take advantage of Tanzania's remarkable wildlife parks and diverse landscape.
Can my son or daughter join me on the program? What's the minimum age requirement? Possibly, we would prefer to talk with you about the program you're interested in and see if it's an appropriate choice for someone under the age of 18. We accept participants 16 years or older on our regularly scheduled trips, accompanied by a legal guardian.

NICHOLAS A. BENJAMIN,PLAINTIFF,v.NATIONAL RAILROAD PASSENGER CORPORATION DEFENDANT.
The opinion of the court was delivered by: Sitarski, M.J.
Currently pending before the Court is a motion for summary judgment filed by Defendant National Railroad Passenger Corporation. For the following reasons, the motion will be DENIED.
On October 23, 2009, Plaintiff Nicholas A. Benjamin initiated this lawsuit by filing a Complaint against Defendant National Railroad Passenger Corporation ("AMTRAK"). Plaintiff's Complaint alleges negligence in violation of Federal Employers Liability Act ("FELA"), 45 U.S.C. § 51 et. seq., Federal Safety Appliance Act ("FSAA"), 49 U.S.C.A. § 20301 et. seq., and the Federal Locomotive Inspection Act ("LIA"), 49 U.S.C. § 20701 et seq. On November 13, 2009, AMTRAK filed its Answer.
This matter initially was assigned to District Court Judge Juan R. Sanchez. On February 17, 2010, the parties consented to the exercise of jurisdiction by a United States Magistrate Judge under 28 U.S.C. 636(c) and Fed.R.Civ.P. 73, and the matter was referred to me. (Doc. No. 11).
Defendant National Railroad Passenger Corporation has filed a Motion for Summary Judgment. (Doc. No. 17). Defendant moves for summary judgment on the grounds that judicial estoppel operates to bar Plaintiff from pursuing his personal injury claim against Defendant because Plaintiff failed to disclose the existence of this claim in subsequent Bankruptcy Court filings. Plaintiff filed a Response in Opposition, arguing that judicial estoppel should not be applied in this case because there is no evidence of any intent to defraud the courts or his creditors, and Plaintiff did not obtain an unfair advantage. (Doc. No. 21). This motion is now ripe for disposition.
Plaintiff contends that on or about August 25, 2008, he was bitten by a spider while at work at the Defendant's railroad facility. Comp. ¶ 11. Plaintiff claims that this spider bite caused him various injuries to his body, some of which are (or may be) permanent. Comp. ¶ 13. Plaintiff claims that the accident was a result of Defendant's negligence, including failing to properly treat the facility to prevent the presence of bugs, spiders and insects. Comp. ¶ 11. On October 23, 2009, Plaintiff filed this action under the Federal Employers Liability Act ("FELA"), based on Defendant's status as a common carrier.*fn1 Comp. ¶ 2-8. Plaintiff demands monetary relief in a sum in excess of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000.00).
On April 9, 2009, prior to filing the present action, Plaintiff filed a voluntary bankruptcy petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland. Def.'s Motion ¶¶ 15 & 16, Exs. L & M. Plaintiff was represented by Jill A. Kolodner, Esquire, in the bankruptcy; Ms. Kolodner filed the relevant forms on Plaintiff's behalf. Def.'s Motion, Exs. L & M. Schedule B of the bankruptcy petition requires the debtor to identify personal property. Def.'s Motion, Ex. M, p. 9-11. The last line on Schedule B asks for "other personal property of any kind not already listed." Def.'s Motion, Ex. M, p. 11, line 35. Plaintiff's form reports "Pending Worker's Compensation claim with AMTRAK for accident on 8/25/2008 - no lost wage claim."*fn2 Id. On
July 14, 2009, the bankruptcy petition filed on April 9, 2009, was dismissed for material default in plan payment, and the matter was closed without a discharge. Def.'s Motion, Ex. L.
About one month after filing the present action, on November 20, 2009, Plaintiff filed a second voluntary bankruptcy petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland. Def.'s Motion ¶ 6, Exs. C & D. Plaintiff was represented by Wanda D. Browne, Esquire, in this bankruptcy, and Ms. Browne filed the relevant forms on Plaintiff's behalf. Def.'s Motion, Exs. D, E & H. Again, Schedule B of the bankruptcy petition requires the debtor to identify personal property. Def.'s Motion, Ex D, p. 18-19. Among the type of property listed on Schedule B appears "other contingent and unliquidated claims of every nature, including tax refunds, counterclaims of the debtor, and rights to setoff claims . . . ." Def.'s Motion, Ex. D, p. 18, line 21. Plaintiff's form is checked "None," thus indicating to the Bankruptcy Court that he had no such claims. Id. The last line on Schedule B states "other personal property of any kind not already listed." Def.'s Motion, Ex. D, p. 19, line 35. Plaintiff's form at this line reports only "Toro lawn mower." Id. On January 20, 2010, Plaintiff filed an Amended Chapter 13 Plan, and on February 9, 2010, Plaintiff filed a Second Amended Chapter 13 Plan. Def.'s Motion, Exs. E & H. These amendments do not mention Plaintiff's FELA lawsuit. Def.'s Motion, Exs. E & H.
On March 29, 2010, the Bankruptcy Court issued an Order confirming the Chapter 13 Plan, and also issued an Order that AMTRAK should garnish Plaintiff's wages so that creditors could be paid. Def.'s Motion, Exs. I & J. On July 14, 2010, Plaintiff file an amended bankruptcy petition and Schedule B to reflect his pending FELA claim. Plf.'s Response, Ex. A. As a result, the Bankruptcy Court issued an order disallowing Plaintiff's previously claimed exemptions.*fn3
Summary judgment shall be granted "if the movant shows that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law." Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a). A fact is "material" if it "might affect the outcome of the suit under the governing law." Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 248 (1986). An issue is "genuine" if there is sufficient evidence from which a jury could find in favor of the non-moving party. Id. at 248-29. It is not the court's role to weigh the disputed evidence and decide which is more probative, or to make credibility determinations. ...

"I venture that a majority of Americans either dont know or dont care about the Constitution."
The 2010 elections suggest otherwise.
> The 2010 elections suggest otherwise.
I hope you're right. But we still didn't win the Senate. Reid is still there. McCain is still there. In fact, most senators have no Constitutional compass whatsoever.
And 0bama's poll numbers are still high enough to pull off a win this Fall.
That a Kenyan openly Marxist, pro-jihadi racist should even be seriously considered for President of the United States, let alone be elected, is pretty strong evidence that a majority is not really more than superficially aware of the Constitution.

the curtain falls
The history of the painted backdrop begins shortly after the invention of photography in the 1830s. When this new picture-making process caught on it spread throughout the world in an amazingly short period of time. Much of this early camera work was performed on rooftops and at other convenient outdoor locations in order to catch the greatest amount of daylight. Although basic lighting systems made it technically possible for photography to move indoors, it was the introduction of the artist's ingenious device, an outdoor scene painted onto a canvas backdrop, that revolutionized the concept of picture making and created the illusion of another reality. Photographers eventually left their studio environments with their painted backdrops to establish a new form of itinerancy. From that time forward the tradition of the roving portrait photographer evolved, flourished through several generations and has been sustained, albeit tenuously, right up to the present day.
What had once been a profitable occupation was greatly diminished by the market success of the introduction of George Eastman's inexpensive Kodak camera in the late 1580s, which soon became an everyday household item. Enthusiasts could suddenly enjoy the thrill of making their own pictures. This revolutionary change happened almost overnight in the United States, as well as in other industrialized nations, and its impact on photographers was severe. Nevertheless, itinerants kept to the road, supplying cheap photographs to people in outlying areas. Their work was greatly aided by the eye-catching backdrops they often carried with them.
The typical photographic backdrop can best be described as an oversized painting on an expanse of cloth, generally of some heavy cotton weave or thin, pliable canvas, measuring approximately 8x10 feet. Sometimes lengths of standard-width cloth are stitched together to fabricate the appropriate dimensions needed to form the back wall of an itinerant photographer's booth or to successfully isolate clients in order to create an environment that transcends the reality of the studio. Loops or ties are sewn to reinforced edges and corners for added strength when stretching the panel taut. Patrons sit or stand in front of the decorated panels to have their pictures taken.
As folk art the photographer's painted backdrop is an often overlooked but nevertheless significant example of vernacular painting. Created primarily by self-taught artisans, its large-scale imagery is designed to dominate the photographer's workspace. One of the fascinating aspects of photographing with a painted background is the transforming blend of magic and reality that makes the subject indistinguishable from the painting, an illusion that is confirmed by the photograph itself. This occurs when the person being photographed appears to become part of the chosen setting rather than being superimposed against it. The painter's expertise sometimes worked its charm so thoroughly that country folk who had been photographed in front of a lavishly painted cityscape half believed later on that they had actually visited a modern metropolis.
Since their initial use painted backgrounds have been indispensible tools of the photographer's trade along with furniture and other accessories used in studio setups. They are probably more important to traveling photographers because their function is to excite and lure customers to the photographer's booth. Unfortunately, no matter how colorful a backdrop was, the resulting image was still always black and white. An exception, of course, was another very effective innovation: the hand-tinted photograph. For the difference in price, however, most were content to patronize the old-fashioned "bucket photographer" with his pictorial backdrop.
In the Eastern U.S. during the 1870s, an immigrant New Yorker named Jose Mora operated a successful photography establishment that boasted more than 150 painted backgrounds. Among them were winter scenes, landscapes and seascapes, tropical vistas, ancient ruins, scenery from Egypt to Siberia, leafy bowers, vine-entwined columns, urns, exotic flowers, Moorish arches, neatly turned balustrades, steps and curving stairs, richly decorated Victorian house interiors, fine furniture and libraries stocked with simulated books. Most of these props were made by L. W. Seavey, a manufacturer of accessories for photographic galleries and considered by some "the first background painter of the world" . "First," in this case, must have meant "foremost," for around 1840 Antoine Claudet, a French daguerreotypist living in London, is credited with being the first to use a painted background. Not long afterward backdrops of many descriptions were in general use throughout the photographed world. Artists of various talents were called upon for this work. The best were, naturally, those painters with previous experience in creating similar large-scale murals such as theatrical [...]

There aren't enough words to express how much my heart hurts for the Porto family. Not only have we lost a brave Marine but he was a husband & father, & a fantastic one at that by the words used to describe her husband...
"He joined the Corps because he was looking for meaning and purpose in his life and because he felt a calling to be a United States Marine. And he was a DAMN good Marine, an AMAZING husband, and even from miles and miles away, a WONDERFUL father."
(A Little Pink in a World of Camo)
My greatest respect & gratitude to Cpl Porto, his wife & family. Thank you for all you've done to support such a man who is willing to lay his life down for other. His sacrifice will never be forgotten. All my prayers & support...God Bless them all!
Rachel, I've loved reading your blog about the Marine Wife & family you guys are. I will be praying for you & Ariana. I know we've never met but if there is anything I can do to help, I would be honored to. I pray God always keeps you in everything you do. You are a Marine Wife worth looking up to! God Bless you Rachel & Ariana.

Vol. XXII, No. 105-A [ BusinessWorld Online ]
Saturday, December 20, 2008 | MANILA, PHILIPPINES
PROPERTY DEVELOPER Megaworld Corp. is confident of attracting buyers for its fifth residential project despite a gloomy outlook for the housing market next year.
In a statement, the company on Friday said it was expecting P1.4 billion in sales from Greenbelt Madison, mostly to professionals who are unlikely to be affected by a slowing global economy.
Megaworld said it could easily sell the condominium units given its prime location, which is just a block away from Ayala Avenue where most businesses are. The realty firm said it was still tring to get its license to sell.
"Despite the ongoing financial crisis abroad, we are quite confident with Greenbelt Madison because [it is] near Ayala Avenue and the Makati Medical Center," said Clifford Legaspi, Megaworld vice-president for marketing and head of the Greenbelt Madison project. He added that they expect the units to be sold out in the next few months.
Mr. Legaspi said they would target doctors, executives, entrepreneurs and investors for Greenbelt Madison.
The project will have 276 executive studio and two-bedroom units that cost as much as P5.3 million for the studio units. The two-bedroom units measuring as big as 78 square meters will cost as much as P8.6 million.
Greenbelt Madison will feature a 15-meter pool, gym and a grand lobby.
Other projects of Megaworld that are under construction include Greenbelt Chancellor and Greenbelt Excelsior.
Megaworld earlier said it was on track to meet its full-year net profit target of P3.8 billion, almost four times higher than a year earlier.
Its net income in the third quarter rose by more than a fourth to P1.07 billion, the second time in its history to breach the P1-billion mark. — Kristine Jane R. Liu

1. A woman who is refined, polite, and well-spoken
2. A woman of high social and economic class
3. Any woman; female
That, my good readers, is the dictionary entry for what it means to be a lady. It seems almost banal, with such bare bones explanations. For our purposes, however, such a skeletal foundation is ideal, as it allows a woman to flesh out her own understanding of what it means to be a lady, and in this day and age that definition is very, very broad indeed. So, to help would-be ladies along, I and several friends have opted to create this blog, to provide advice, information, and tips on what it means to be a lady. And, while we're at it, note the last definition of a lady: 'any woman'. When it comes down to brass tacks, any woman can be a lady. It's not a matter of money or breeding, but one of intellect and fortitude, as well as a willingness to improve upon one's natural interests and inherent personality.
From the first, however, I feel it cannot be stressed enough is that each person must find their own definition of what it is to be a lady. There are many roads to the same destination, each with its own benefits and troubles. Generally, however, these roads have similar signage, which is why this blog can exist – whether haughty or humble, every lady must experience certain successes and disasters, and learn how to navigate similar potholes in their thoroughfare.
At the very start of this path, however, is a very simple crossroads with an equally simple signpost that reads as follows: Who are you? And like something from Alice in Wonderland, this sign has the potential to point in every which way if you are not sure of your answer. Now, to use myself as an example, I look at that sign and see 'I am a would-be aristocrat'. I want the absolute top of the line in life, but I'm also delighted to go casual when the occasion calls. I am supremely confident in myself, and even when I'm not I pretend to be and pretending makes it so. I can be haughty and snobbish on occasion, but I am indelibly loyal to those who befriend and love me.
These are all just minor facets of a much larger picture, one that would require several encyclopedias to fully discuss, but it outlines some of the main points: I know who I am, I know what I want, I know my own worth, and I know who I care about. Understanding these things is the most important element of becoming a lady, the foundation upon which you can build the rest of your attitude and appearance. And make sure your foundation in strong, my apprentice ladies – if it isn't, no amount of Home Ec skills, witty retorts, expensive clothes, or martial arts will make you the capable woman you long to be. That starts in the heart and in the head, and to act without them is to be only half there – a philosophical zombie, all flash and appearance with nothing going on inside.
I hope you enjoy this blog and visit us again soon. New articles – hopefully from an ever-growing bevy of writers – will be debuting in the near future.

Well, I've been taking 1000 mcg (micrograms) of Biotin for the past 3 weeks, and I really can see some difference in my hair health and even my nails are growing, it seems, a little faster and stronger. My hair isn't shedding like it was and it's really thickening up, especially in the back where it is mostly natural now. I may up the dosage to 2000 mcg and see how that works. I've read that some people take up to 5000 mcg and I've seen bottles of 5000 dosage in the drug stores. Biotin has no side effects so I can't hurt. Its water soluable so what your body doesn't absorb just comes out through your urine. My hair does seem to be much healthier, though.
It's funny because I look at pics of me when I first started transitioning 6 months ago and I started getting a little discouraged because my hair was longer, my twist-out looked more "lush" for a lack of better term. But then I realized, that wasn't my natural hair, that was mostly the permed hair. My natural hair is growing like crazy now, while my permed hair is phasing out, either shedding or from my trimming it away periodically. So, my twist outs look shorter and pouffier because they are! It's my natural hair taking over. But, it seems to really be growing thick!
I've been using the "Worlds of Curls" activator on mostly the back of my hair where it's almost completely natural for a couple of days now. It doesn't do much in terms of curl definition (although I have yet to apply it as a styling gel for my twist out), but it definitely moisturizes (the first two ingredients are water and glycerin) the dry hair in the back and keeps my hair looser and softer. I think I'll continue to use it. Especially after I BC because my natural hair seems to like it. I don't use a whole lot because I don't like for my hair to feel greasy, but it feels soft and I like touching it. It doesn't feel crunchy in the back anymore and it's not shedding at all. I'm going to have to do a re-styling session tonight, though, because when I took down my TnC yesterday, it was still wet and now I've got a lot of frizz! I may just TnC the back. I don't know. We'll see how I feel when I get home from work this evening. ;)
This weekend I'm going to try "Kinky Curly Coily's" routine: I'll apply olive oil to my hair (my Hot Six Oil) and co-wash, apply Organic Root Stimulators Hair Mayonnaise, comb through and let it sit with a plastic baggy for about 15 minutes, detangle, rinse and then apply Cantu Leave in Condish (if I can ever find any!). After that I'll probably use the ORS curly pudding that I have and flat twist probably seal my ends with shea butter. See how that turns out ;) I want to try the Hair Mayo because I want to see if it will be a good replacement for my Pantene R&N hair mask when it all runs out ;(
I think I'll continue to co-wash and skip shampooing altogether, my hair seems to act better when I don't use shampoo. I haven't really found one that doesn't make my hair feel stripped of all moisture! Maybe I'll just shampoo once a month with a shampoo that has some "sls" (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) in it just to get rid of build up and the "cones" in my conditioner and other products. I'll probably use the Organic Root Olive Oil Cream shampoo. It seem to have been the gentlest on my hair so far of all the shampoos I've tried and it does have some sls in it, but I'll wait another couple of weeks before I do that.
Ciao for now!

MANCHESTER, New Hampshire -- A Santorum campaign staffer tells BuzzFeed that his campaign has received a surge of volunteers from Rick Perry's flagging camp -- some of whom said they'd been told by Perry's staff to join the Santorum campaign.
But top aides to both Santorum and Perry denied that there's any organized effort to merge the efforts, and there is no evidence that the movement of volunteers represents more than a shift-in momentum and low-level staff efforts.
Perry's campaign, polling in the low single digits, barely exists in the state: Its Manchester headquarters is practically deserted. Volunteers lack basic technology, and have complained of having to read from printed lists of telephone numbers for calls, rather than the online databases that are now standard.
The Santorum aide who spoke to BuzzFeed said a new volunteer told of going to Perry headquarters to volunteer, and being told that his help "wasn't needed," and to go to the Santorum office instead.
A senior Santorum aide said there was no coordination between the campaigns. The Santorum camp is avoiding any overt efforts to raid conservative rivals, though senior adviser Hogan Gidley said they'd seen an "incredible" surge of volunteers from across the state and across the country.
Perry's communications director, Ray Sullivan, also told BuzzFeed that there's no broader plan to help Santorum stop Romney in New Hampshire.
"We are absolutely not encouraging or instructing our volunteers in this way," he said.

I read John Mayer's blog today and it reminded me that I would like to write much more on my blog (not just post pictures which is the more convenient choice). Mr. Mayer had a wonderful entry from March 27th, that touched my heart in a sense. This made me think about how I would like to write and express much more on my own personal blog... possibly affecting someone in the way that Mr. Mayer's entry affected me. So on that note...
The definition for unrequited love is as follows:
Unrequited love is love that is not reciprocated, even though reciprocation is usually deeply desired. The beloved may not even be aware of this person's deep feelings for them. This can lead to feelings such as depression, low self-esteem, anxiety, and rapid mood swings between depression and euphoria. Being such a universal feeling, it has naturally been a frequent subject in popular culture.
Unrequited love has been a term that I have thought about ever since my interest in literature was sparked many years ago. It used to be a romantic notion that made me feel pity for those who were subjected to it. I could only ponder how terrible it would be if I were to be in that particular situation. The older I have grown, the more I doubt the possibility of unrequited love. To me, love is a mutual emotion, or passion if you will, that must first and foremost be shared in order for it to be true. If this is the case, there would be no possibility for unrequited love. So, perhaps there is no such thing.
Perhaps one person is sure, and the other isn't. This could be true for any number of reasons: they are scared, immature, or just unsure of how to know without a doubt that this is that person for them. Although, this scenario would not be unrequited love. It would actually be requited, just an unknown requited love. Or perhaps, one person, for whatever reason (security, comfort, friendship) convinces themselves that they are in love, and therein convincing the other individual involved that they too are in love, when in reality, neither are in love. Fortunate couples recognize what is true, and honest, and pure, and they know whether this "love" that they share is true, or if it is some sort of facade. Others never realize or they realize much farther down the road, and then they part ways. Again, all this means that unrequited love can't exist. False feelings can lead to false relationships. Just as being afraid can prevent relationships from ever taking flight. It is a terrifying notion really, but one I feel is spot on. Concluding, in reality, unrequited love cannot exist unless we fashion a vision of it.
What are your thoughts on this?

Operators run Securus "flawlessly" within a day
We received excellent testimony from Shaun Westcott, CEO of AC Whitcher, regarding the recent installation of Securus at his plants. This is why we decided to quote him word for word in the Dolphin Bay Brief.Here is Shaun's feedback:"The installation of Securus was flawless, fluid and efficient. Dolphin Bay sent their highly competent team down, who not only did the installation but also the training at the same time. Securus is so easy and efficient to operate that the team was fully competent and operating it flawlessly within a day."As we run two plants each with their own operators, and also have a day and night shift, Dolphin Bay kindly came down the following week to follow up and check that all the shifts had mastered the operation of Securus – which again, given the ease of use, was working perfectly."So a great thank you to Dolphin Bay for yet another flawlessly executed improvement to AC Whitcher's treatment plants and processes. Not only has Securus been a leap forward in technology, but it has also removed the element of human error in the titration process. This undoubtedly will improve efficiency, reduce cost and has also facilitated the ease of operation of the plant.Says AC Whitcher plant supervisor Vanessa Filander: "Securus makes titration much easier and saves us time. Instead of standing there waiting for the correct colour change, we can go and do other work while the machine does the calculations for us. This makes it much more efficient – and it also gives us greater peace of mind.""Thank you, Shaun, for your generous feedback," says Bertus. "We look forward to continually improving, and offering the industry the solutions that will simplify their operations."

President Judge Bowman and Judges Crumlish, Jr., Kramer, Wilkinson, Jr., Mencer, Rogers and Blatt. Opinion by Judge Blatt.
Author: Blatt
[ 21 Pa. Commw. Page 164]
In this appeal from an adjudication of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Public Welfare (Department), Temple University of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education (Temple) pursues a challenge to the Department's practice of denying payment to hospitals under the Medical Assistance Program for inpatient hospital care (a) during extended stays caused by the Temple hospital's inability to transfer a patient promptly to a lesser level of care, such as a nursing home or the patient's home, without regard to whether or not such facilities are available to that patient, and (b) for more than 60 days for any one patient in a benefit period.
The case of Joseph Giacoponelli was selected to test these practices and the facts of his case are not contested. Mr. Giacoponelli, a welfare recipient occupying a room in a Philadelphia boarding house, was admitted as an inpatient to the Temple University Hospital on August 18, 1971, suffering from a hip infection. In addition, he suffered from cerebral palsy, had seizures, was mentally retarded, and was almost completely blind. During the initial part of his hospitalization, hip surgery was performed requiring Mr. Giacoponelli to remain bedridden for some time. On September 23 he began to walk with the aid of parallel bars and a walker. He remained in the hospital, however, for a total of 90 days until November 15, 1971.
Mr. Giacoponelli's case was selected for evaluation by the Department's Hospital Utilization Review Committee. Hospital utilization review is designed to promote efficient fiscal and medical utilization of hospital care facilities. Under Departmental Regulation 9421.521 "[w]hen review of a case selected by a Hospital Utilization Review Committee indicates that there has been improper use of hospital facilities or services, a record of the ...
