LILLIAN ABRAMS, APPELLANT,v.THE ZONING HEARING BOARD OF THE BOROUGH OF DANVILLE, APPELLEE
Appeal from the Order of the Court of Common Pleas of the 26th Judicial District of Pennsylvania, Montour County Branch, in case of Lillian Abrams v. The Zoning Hearing Board of the Borough of Danville, No. 143 April Term, 1973.
Thomas Arthur James, Jr., with him Cleveland C. Hummel, for appellant.
E. Robert Marks, with him Marks and Wagner, for appellee.
Judges Crumlish, Jr., Wilkinson, Jr., and Rogers, sitting as a panel of three. Opinion by Judge Wilkinson.
Author: Wilkinson
[ 21 Pa. Commw. Page 285]
In 1973, appellant, Lillian Abrams, purchased a lot at 315 Lower Mulberry Street, Danville, Montour County, on which were erected a single dwelling house fronting on Lower Mulberry Street and a two-story cinderblock building fronting on an alley at the rear of the lot. The lot is situate in an area zoned R-2 by the Borough of Danville, permitting single family and two-family dwellings but excluding commercial and manufacturing uses. Until the fall of 1971 the prior owner had operated a carpentry business out of the cinderblock building; however, the building had been vacant from that time through the spring of 1973 when appellant obtained the premises.
The instant appeal is from an order of the Montour County Court of Common Pleas affirming the Zoning Hearing Board of the Borough of Danville in its denial of appellant's application for a variance without taking further evidence. Our review is limited to whether the Zoning Hearing Board committed an abuse of discretion or an error of law. Filanowski v. Zoning Board of Adjustment, 439 Pa. 360, 266 A.2d 670 (1970); Klavon v. Zoning Hearing Board of Marlborough Township, 20 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 22, 340 A.2d 631 (1975).
[ 21 Pa. Commw. Page 286]
In order to have established her right to a variance, appellant would have had to prove both that the zoning ordinance resulted in burdening her property with an unnecessary hardship unique to that property, and that the variance would not adversely affect the public health and safety or welfare. Sposato v. Radnor Township Board of Adjustment, 440 Pa. 107, 270 A.2d 616 (1970); Alfano v. Zoning Hearing Board of Marple Township, 14 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 334, 324 A.2d 851 (1974). A finding of unnecessary hardship required proof that the physical characteristics of the property were such that it could not be used for a permitted purpose, or could only be so used at prohibitive expense, or that the property was of no value, or only distress value, if used as zoned. Commissioners of Plymouth Township v. Wannop, 13 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 237, 320 A.2d 455 (1974); Surrick v. Zoning Hearing Board of the Township of Upper Providence, 11 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 607, 314 A.2d 565 (1974); Philadelphia Zoning Board of Adjustment v. Earl Scheib Realty Corp., 8 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 11, 301 A.2d 423 (1973).
On the evidence as presented to the Zoning Hearing Board, we cannot say that the Board improperly denied appellant's application. A residential dwelling currently exists on appellant's property and is in use. Thus, while the rear building may be vacant, the premises clearly can be and are being used for residential purposes as zoned. Additionally, there was conflicting testimony as to the impact the requested variance would have on the public. Residents opposing the application contended it would aggravate an existing neighborhood parking problem, increase vehicular traffic posing a safety hazard to children playing nearby, add noise and otherwise annoy the neighbors and generally depreciate property values. Witnesses for appellant disputed these claims. The burden being on appellant to prove no adverse effect, the Board could well conclude the burden was not met.
[ 21 Pa. Commw. Page 287]
Appellant also argues that the prior owner of the premises operated a valid nonconforming use thereon, and that the use had not been abandoned when appellant attempted to convert the rear cinderblock building to use for a small manufacturing plant. Abandonment includes the intention to abandon the nonconforming use which may be drawn from statements, overt acts, or the failure to act. Hilltown Township v. Horn, 13 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 248, 320 A.2d 153 (1974), rev'd on other grounds, Pa. , 337 A.2d 858 (1975); Marchese v. Norristown Borough Zoning Board of Adjustment, 2 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 84, 277 A.2d 176 (1971).
The court below found that a nearly one and one-half year period elapsed between the termination of the prior owner's carpentry business and the attempted nonconforming use by the appellant. The court below decided, as we have previously, that a period of nonuse extending more than one year is ample justification to infer intent to abandon the nonconforming use. DiNardo v. Pittsburgh, 15 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 279, 325 A.2d 654 ...

I only have one word for this wedding: "WOW!"
It was such an amazing day from beginning to end. It started raining the morning, but Leandri and Brad were both just 'all-smiles', they were just so excited to get married! Leandri was such a beautiful bride, and so easy to work with. One moment she is posing, and the next she just can't keep herself from smiling or making jokes. They were such a fun couple to photograph!
Their ceremony was truly amazing as well; they truly committed the whole day and their marriage to God. The speeches at the reception were a true "trane-trekker" in Afrikaans. They honoured their families in such a beautiful way.
For the couple photos we were blessed with amazing light, and no rain 🙂
And it was amazing to work with my sister from Love Project Films again!
I will just let the photos do the rest of the talking 😉

On your wedding day pamper yourself with professional makeup! One thing I've learned is that ALL brides are beautiful on their wedding day. There's nothing more flattering than the look of true love! No matter how low-maintenance you may be, though,you should still consider hiring a professional makeup artist to help you look your absolute best on the big day. Experienced makeup people know just how to emphasize your very best features so you're ready for your close up at picture time!
I'm always rapt when my brides tell me they've chosen Edessa to do their makeup. I've photographed brides wearing make up by Endessa for 3 years now and I know she always does a fantastic job and the makeup photographs flawlessly. Apart from gracing North Coast brides with her fantastic make up, Endessa has worked at Fashion Shows as part of makeup artist Rae Morris' team.
Yesterday, I visited Endessas' Beauty Spot for a quick photo shoot of some work she was doing. It's fun for me to get out and do something out of the ordinary!
Following are some of the photos from the shoot.
One of the artist!
Until next time,

Originally posted on Capeless Crusader on September 18, 2015.
About a month ago, I said that it was pretty unlikely that we would be getting a Booster Gold movie and man am I glad I was wrong because it sounds like DC might actually be bringing both Booster Gold and his buddy the Blue Beetle to the big screen after all.
A report from the Tracking Board states that Warner Bros. is currently developing a Booster Gold and Blue Beetle live-action feature film that will be directed by Greg Berlanti, the executive producer behind The CW's DC superhero TV series Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, and Legends of Tomorrow.
Meanwhile, Heroic Hollywood is claiming that the script will be written by superhero film vet Zak Penn (The Avengers, The Incredible Hulk, X-Men: The Last Stand, Elektra).
"In a massively different approach from Warner's current slate, the film will team the two heroes together in what's being pitched as a superhero buddy cop movie," according to Tracking Board. "Comedy is the emphasis here, which is a stark contrast to the other titles in DC's Cinematic Universe, breaking the mold of the uber serious and grounded Man of Steeland Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice."
Michael Jon Carter aka Booster Gold, was once a famous football player from the distant future until his career fell apart when he was caught betting on his own games. Still hungry for fame and fortune, he stole a power suit and a robot sentry named Skeets from the superhero museum that he was working at as a security guard. After creating the identity Booster Gold, he then used a time machine to travel back to modern time to use his knowledge of the future and advanced technology to turn himself into a superhero celebrity. At first Booster was only in it for the fame and glory, but over time he eventually comes to prove himself to be an actual hero.
It's unknown which version of the Blue Beetle character that they plan on using for the movie will be but the Ted Kord version of the character seems like the most likely choice.
No actors have been reported to be attached to the project at the moment, but if DC is really planning on making this movie than maybe Nathan Fillion might get his chance to play Booster Gold after all.

Happy 4th of July
By: The Notorious WANG - Friday, July 04, 2014
Happy 4th of July Everybody!
The 4th is upon us again my fellow pervs and I just know that we all are not only going to celebrate America's Independence but we are also going to be waiting to celebrate those hot chicks with big tits, round asses liberating themselves from their clothes and hopefully their bikini tops too. Then maybe later on some of us lucky mother fuckers might just get to see them without their bottoms on neither. If that's not enough to make your huge hardons stand up and salute, I don't know what is.

Often Misdiagnosed as numerous other ailments
By Chris Clemens
Dr. Leonard Feld, an Accredited Dentist with American Board Certification in both Craniofacial Pain and Implantology, is offering a complimentary seminar intended to help people identify if they have tempomandibular disorder (TMD), a condition often misdiagnosed, and therefore, improperly treated. The seminar will take place on Friday, April 15 at 10 a.m., at The Smile Center in Indian Wells.
TMD is a complex condition to evaluate and recognize. Because the symptoms can mimic other medical disorders, patients are misdiagnosed and treated with medications to mask the symptoms resulting in temporary relief, often enduring pain for years. Those experiencing any of these symptoms consistently and without relief – headaches, insomnia, dizziness, sleep apnea, snoring, dozing when reading or sitting, joint pain and stiffness, anxiety, depression, restless leg syndrome, chronic back pain, limited movement of the jaw, and other discomforts – are ideal candidates to be evaluated for TMD. Often misdiagnosed as arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia, cystitis, hormonal imbalance, and other diagnosis, TMD is treatable and does not include the use of prescription medications or surgery.
The factors involved in TMD are poorly understood and it is becoming clearer that a dentist who is specially trained in treating these afflictions can best direct the appropriate care to cure the condition. Treating TMD involves addressing the relationship between upper and lower teeth and the teeth to the TM joints, as well as supporting ligaments and associated musculature. Depending on the severity of the jaw displacement a variety of treatment approaches are available. Because deterioration of the jaw joints can be progressive resulting in increased pain and added symptoms, accurate and timely diagnosis and treatment is extremely important.
Dr. Feld specializes in treating TMD with a multidisciplinary team approach. He has successfully given patients relief from the pain associated with the above noted conditions through orthopedic dentistry. His associates and staff are highly experienced and trained in working with patients to improve and relieve this condition, while utilizing conservative, non-invasive, and non-surgical treatments.
Dr. Feld has more than 30 years of dental experience and over 4500 hours of graduate study. He graduated from USC Dental School with honors and continues to teach at USC Oral Surgery Department. He has completed his residency at the Institute for Advanced TMJ, Sleep Studies and Aesthetic Dentistry. In addition, he is founder of the International TMJ and Sleep Medicine Network. His many professional accolades include:
Diplomate – American Board of Craniofacial Pain
Diplomate – American Board of Implantology
Diplomate – International Congress of Implantology
Diplomate – American Academy Sleep Medicine
Diplomate – European Academy of Implantology
Fellow – American Academy of Orofacial Pain
Fellow – American Academy of Craniofacial Pain
Fellow – American Academy of Implant Dentistry
Fellow – American Academy of Pain Management
For a complimentary consultation with Dr. Feld, or for additional information, call 760-578-8700 or visit www.southeastdentalgroup.com. His offices are located in northern and southern California in Indian Wells, Maywood, and Santa Clara.

I only found this out, in Ontario, if your a registered sex offender, you are not allowed to open your door to trick or treaters. Which is a good law,.. but it got me thinking.
Your not enough of a "social outcast" in the neighborhood already,.. now your the dick that doesn't give out candy.
Here is this person just rocking himself sane, in his darkened house, when all of a sudden there is a knock at the door and when he opens it there are five power rangers lined up before him?
"Hey, Children of Canada, don't ever take candy from strangers.... OH! That is.. unless it is Night. You walk to their house. And you are in Costume!!" Then its a fabulous idea!!
Hello,.. I represent Mixed Messages!!
I am a comic that thinks outside the box.. after everything is gone from inside it. I was born without that filter that keeps certain thoughts inside, and most times, it pops out at the worst moments.. its going to happen, so best be prepared for whatever is about to come out.

Once again...I'm posting my menu for this week a little late. The main reason is that I just figured out yesterday what I plan to cook this week and yesterday we were busy cleaning house in preparation for my in laws visit. I'd love to boast that our home is always show case ready but in reality it's probably one step above unsanitary. Sometimes I look at our bathrooms and think, "Oh my goodness, if someone came over now there would not be one clean bathroom to send them to!" If someone would have told me that having boys would mean that my bathrooms would always resemble a gas station restroom...I would have thought that they were exaggerating but I'm here to tell you that it is not a myth!! It is 100% true!
Anyway, now that we are in the throws soccer season for the boys and my hub's football season and I am now forced to live the solitary life on a coaches wife **sigh**. I'm on a mission to keep things simple.
Monday: Pork Chops with Apples & Creamy Bacon Cheese Grits
Tuesday: Caribbean Chicken with rice (I got this recipe from a friend of mine in college who is from Jamaica...it's easy and delish)
Wednesday: Hot Dogs
Thursday: Chicken Stir Fry
Friday: Pizza for the boys and the babysitter
Saturday -Sunday You know the drill...I don't cook on weekends!

I am starting a new feature today..........I am calling it "Tip of the Week Thursday". Every Thursday I plan to tell you about a great tip I have discovered. It could be about cleaning ( not my fav thing!!), cooking, crafting, travel, or just something I think you might find useful.
So todays tip is about cleaning. I hate to clean the bathroom........really really hate it. So anything to make it easier helps. We have an old re glazed tub and a new ceramic tile surround.
Mix about 1 ounce of this:
to about 10 ounces of water in a spray bottle. Spray the tub and tile with this solution after each shower. It will help the soap scum just slide off the tile and WOW easier cleaning. Also its cheaper than those "after shower" cleaning sprays!
We got this tip from the guy who re glazed the tub!!
It you have a tip to share just e-mail me....and I will share it!!

Warm Regards,

Have you ever rearranged your furniture, only to be left with those ugly carpet impressions of where the furniture used to be? I've got a great tip for you: Place one or more ice cubes on the indentation and let them melt. Come back later and fluff the fibers with your fingertips or the back of a spoon. The carpet fibers will fluff right up, good as new!!ReplyDelete

These Aren't "Just Cookbooks"!
The picture above is a view of my kitchen counter. To the left of my kitchen sink I have a whole row of cookbooks which contain a lot of the recipes I use for my daily cooking and special holiday treats. I would be the world's worst cook if it were not for these recipes!
Recently, I picked up one of the books to find my recipe for biscuits and was shocked to discover the bottom half of it all wet. Closer examination revealed that all of my cookbooks were wet! I was so upset I began crying and blubbering about how everything was ruined and what was I going to do without them. My husband, who was making his morning coffee, just looked at me like I was crazy and commented, "They are only cookbooks." This made me cry even louder and I began to wail as I took each one in hand and told him why they were so special. As I paused to catch my breath and wipe my nose he sheepishly said, "Well, I'm the one who got them wet. I got some water on the cabinet and thought I wiped it all up." This statement caused another round of tears and accusations of "How could you have done that to my books and not told me?", followed by his promise to this crazed woman that he could fix the damage.
As I looked on with alot of doubt and skepticism, he proceeded to dry the pages of each book with my blowdryer and then very carefully iron each page while standing at my ironing board. I don't think I've ever loved that man as much as I did at that moment! When everything was dry, including my eyes, he took a board, painted it to match my cabinets and replaced all my books on the raised shelf to prevent a repeat of this disasterous occurence.
That morning I realized how much of my life was tied up in those well-worn, grease stained cookbooks. Pictured below is my very first cookbook. It was given to me at our wedding shower and fortunately for my husband, it included how-to pictures along with a lot of the recipes! My favorite recipe for chicken and dumplings is in this book.
The first one I purchased for myself was this cookbook of recipes from what was then Oklahoma Christian College. (If you attended there in the seventies, don't worry, I don't mean the recipes from the cafeteria, but instead from those in the campus community!) After graduating from Oklahoma Christian, Mickey and I both worked there for three years. Many of these recipes and the pictures included in this book hold special memories of college days and our life as newlyweds. I've used it so much in the past 38 years that the cover fell off and got misplaced many years ago!
This recipe book is from the church we attended in Arnold, Missouri. It was compiled in conjunction with a ladies retreat and distributed a few months after we moved away to Texas. It is so very precious to me because many of the ladies wrote sweet little notes next to their recipes and I received it in the mail after I moved away.
All of these ladies hold a special place in my heart!
The next one was given to me by my mom in 1989. It contains some of her recipes along with her sister's, my Aunt Pallie. Both Mom and her sister have since passed away so it means so much.
My mom's handwritten recipe for her Thanksgiving dressing is on the back page. Next month I'll pull this one out, gingerly run my fingers over her writing, cry a few tears and make her delicious dressing for my family.
This one was published by my neighborhood subdivision in San Antonio. I loved that beautiful neighborhood with its many live oak trees. Mickey and I enjoyed many evening walks there.
This one I won on the plane as our family flew with all the other Southwestern Bell employees to get our first glimpse of San Antonio. What a day that was! They literally rolled out a red carpet, complete with a mariachi band, as we got off our buses in downtown San Antonio!
This cookbook is a compilation of recipes from the great cooks of the Katy church of Christ congregation. These women can really cook and oh how I miss them all!
This one I picked up in the Old Country Store restaurant in Jackson, Tennessee. It reminds me of the six years we spent making that Texas to Tennessee trip while our girls were in school at Freed-Hardeman University.
The book below is a reminder of the great trip I took to New Orleans with three of my Katy, Texas friends. What a fun trip !
And this book is all about home. It contains many of the great Oklahoma recipes I grew up eating, including wild onions and eggs. Yum!

A Sewing Frenzy
The first thing I did was head to the local library for a good book. I chose Franklin & Lucy, the story of President Franklin Roosevelt and Lucy Rutherford, the woman he had an affair with during much of his presidency. As my girls would say, pretty random, huh? I'm not sure why it "spoke" to me from the library's shelf, but it 's actually pretty interesting!
Next, I decided that I would really enjoy spending some uninterrupted time sewing. I did a little machine embroidery for a friend, made an "eye spy" bag, and then while checking out some sewing blogs, found a really cute fabric flower tutorial here. I loved the flower and headed immediately to Walmart to find some suitable coordinating fabrics so I could give it a try. Once I'd made the flower, I decided it would be so cute on a dress for Lilly, so the dress you see above is the finished product. I love it! I plan to make another matching flower for her hair.

For those who have a passion for seafood, an added benefit of our ecological farming approach is the variety of quality, organic SEAfood that we produce within a single farm ... a virtual 1-stop shop for the SEAfood connoisseur!
Our recipe of the month is provided below - we're always looking for new ways to dish up SEAfood! At the end of the year we'll compile these into a SEAfood Recipe Review that will be available for download on this site.
Poached Sablefish In Basil Cream Sauce With Tomatoes And Garlic
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the flour and stir continuously, until the mixture is smooth and forms a ball. Add the shallots and garlic, and cook, stirring constantly for 1 minute, or until the vegetables are softened. Add the wine and the cream and whisk until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened. Remove the sauce from the heat and add the basil leaves.
Season the fillets with salt and freshly ground pepper and place them in a lightly greased 9 by 13-inch pan. Pour the basil sauce over the fish and sprinkle with diced tomatoes. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake about 15 minutes or until fillets are cooked through and flake easily.
Remove the fillets from the sauce to a plate, and cover to keep warm. Remove and discard the basil leaves from the cream sauce and pour the cream and tomatoes into a small saucepan. Bring the cream sauce to a boil over medium-high heat and reduce for 5 minutes, or until the sauce is slightly thickened. Adjust the seasonings with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add 1/4 cup of chiffonade basil and remove the sauce from the heat.
Place the fillets on individual plates and top immediately with the basil sauce and tomatoes. Garnish with fresh chiffonade of basil if desired.

I had the pleasure of another trip to our lovely vet Saturday, even if there was nothing wrong with me. Obviously we are going for a holiday again in a few months, this time a little further away to the next country, I think mamma said Austria. So I need to get yet another shot, rabies, and a microchip. Yikes, two jabs!! Worse yet, I had to be kept waiting for 20 minutes because there was a dog in front of us already visiting with the doc. Just see how tormented I was while mamma made merry filming poor, trembling moi.
Ciao my fans from around the world!!! It's me.. Oliver, your favourite chunk of hunk from the Eternal City... here I will keep you updated with my latest piccies, videos and my ponderings... hope you will enjoy! Yours truly, Oliver :-)

My joyous visit with the Vet. (Not)
I had the pleasure of another trip to our lovely vet Saturday, even if there was nothing wrong with me. Obviously we are going for a holiday again in a few months, this time a little further away to the next country, I think mamma said Austria. So I need to get yet another shot, rabies, and a microchip. Yikes, two jabs!! Worse yet, I had to be kept waiting for 20 minutes because there was a dog in front of us already visiting with the doc. Just see how tormented I was while mamma made merry filming poor, trembling moi.

Oh, Oliver! Poor you, in that little cage. How I wish I could reassure you with a loving embrace, although you would probably not enjoy that. Never mind, just think how much fun you will have taking over an entirely new bed - in Austria!ReplyDeleteReplies
don't be silly auntie, I wish you were there to hold me with your loving hands while mamma was cruelly filming and photographing me!!! I would have very much appreciated it! Oh, our holiday ought to be VERY good!!!Delete
- Connie4 April 2012 at 04:01
So many strange sounds at the vet - just look at those ears! Sometimes I open the gate and pet our baby while waiting at the vet, but he looks like he just might run out if that door would open!ReplyDelete
I agree with Shannon on the wonderful new beds, pillows, and blankets to check out in Austria. Beats staying in a kennel all that time... :(Replies
We actually opened the cage to give him wee bit more space... I would have worried just as you do with any other cat, but notice how he is scrunched up at the back corner of the carrier in the first photo... he is just not the type to dash out into the unknown environment, at the best he would begin with tentative stretching of his neck and sniffing around, and a step after step in extreme slow motion... mamma knows his boy very well!! ;-) ... mamma LiciaDelete
- Lasherthecat4 April 2012 at 13:54
Poor Oliver... how insulting getting a photo taken in such a helpless position!! It will be worth it my dear... New and exciting things to explore in Austria I'm sure...ReplyDeleteReplies
yes auntie Kat, mamma reminded me of that gorgeous bed I enjoyed so much last summer... hmmm, then it won't be so bad! And I hear they make excellent cheeses and butter in Austria!!! ;-)Delete
ooh poor Oli... but it´s important! you are so clever that you can understand it! and yeah! your last pic is cool! :-DReplyDeleteReplies
thank you auntie Ivetka!! Yes I wouldn't care for ending up in a kitty jail in Austria and not being able to come home with mamma, no, that's not good!! So I tolerated, but why humans make such complicated, silly rules!? Sigh!Delete
dear Oli, life is sometimes hard... but you are a clever, nice boy! you will survive everything! :))) kissesDelete

CyberCat Oliver! You are a very brave kitty!!! At the end it worth to be done all the vet visits as I m sure you will like in Austria together with your mommy and daddy :)ReplyDelete
Auntie YanaReplies
yes Auntie Yana!!! now it's all over and I feel beter, yes, I am a badass CyberCat now!!! :-D And of course, now I am ready (well, almost... as soon as my passport is ready..) to visit you in Switzerland one day too!!! :-DDelete
- Anonymous7 April 2012 at 23:22
Yeeee, I am happy for you dear Oliver!!! Let us to know when your passport will be ready! We wait you and your mommy to visit us here! I am sure you will like it here!!! ;) ♥ReplyDelete
Auntie YanaReplies
Oh yes Auntie, I was hauled out yet again 2 days ago to go to another veterinary office, to officially apply for the passport. Thank god all I needed was to show my face, they didn't do anything horrible to me.. it is now just the matter of waiting to receive my document!!! then I will be an official globetrotter!Delete
Mew could work as a spy now! Did the chip hurt?ReplyDeleteReplies
actually in my tense moment I was too busy being nervous and didn't notice anything coming inside... so let's say it was not as bad as the forecast after all, and now I am even cooler than before!Delete
- Anonymous22 April 2012 at 14:50
oh yay finally Oliver got a microchip in, cool CyberCat indeed!! :-) I'm glad it wasn't painful for you and it was over in a blink of an eye hehee ;) It was all worth it for you to spend a fabulous holiday with mamma and daddy in Austria :DReplyDelete
Mamma Licia, I see Oliver kept quiet while in the carrier, although very alert and cautious of his surroundings. He wasn't so stressed that he pee-ed right?
Rocky would whine and wail nonstop so I have to take him out of the carrier and place him on my lap to calm him down. He would hiss at dogs who dared to come up to sniff him :)
~ Auntie Liz ~Replies
He WAS whinging loudly in the car, but as soon as we stepped into that scary place he became all silent!!! I was seriously worried about "something" leaking out from his hind-quarter, he did poo in the cage when we were about to take off for Firenze in February, somehow he freaked out much more than usual. This time no accident happened thank god!!Delete
O!Congratulations!So,now you have the chip?ReplyDelete

BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
Cooking my first Event this weekend. Come on down!
If you are anywhere near Northern Virginia let me tell you where to go for a great time and some mighty fine BBQ. One of my best friend's owns a local Riverside Restaurant & Crabhouse and has asked me to take over an annual event and cook the bbq.
Tim's Rivershore Annual Pig Roast & BBQ
Memorial Weekend. May 28, 29 & 30
"Pirate Mike aka the "Pit Pirate" will be bringing his North Carolina style BBQing to Tim's Rivershore. Mike, Tim and Josh will be smoking Pork Butts for Pulled Pork and also a couple of Whole Hogs for picking."
"Mike will be answering BBQ questions and doing some demonstrations as well as picking up his guitar and playing us some music too. Come on down!!!"
On Saterday there will be Wake Board demonstrations and a Bikini Contest at 4:30 pm. This place is THE happening spot locally bar none and this will be a great and fun weekend.
If you can make it down please do and stop over to my Pit area and say howdy.
Next couple of days I will be making pounds and pounds of Rub, Mops and Sauces.
Like I said this is my first celebrating cooking so I'm about as nervous as I would be to go onstage with my band and play. It's Show Time!!!!!
See even Spam is good if it's about BBQ!
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
So where exactly will this be?
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
Kind of far out (Dumfries), but if [url="http://www.timsrivershore.com/missrs01/Untitled9.jpg"]she[/url] is going to be there, it probably will be worth the trip.
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
WOW! That IS kind of far out on Memorial Day Weekend. I HATE driving during this weekend.
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
whats the cost of attendence ;)?
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
You just have to pay for beer and food and drinks.
Come on down dewd!
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
SBF, you ALWAYS have promises of BBQ and I can't ever make it. Do you promise on opening day you'll have a hog smokin'??
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
[QUOTE=TheMalcolmConnection]SBF, you ALWAYS have promises of BBQ and I can't ever make it. Do you promise on opening day you'll have a hog smokin'??[/QUOTE]
Uh...did you ever see that episode of Arrested Development where Michael tells Tobias he should carry around a tape recorder and listen to his comments because, well, they are double entendres?
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
Guys, if you can come on down and it will be a good time and if my last eight years hosting Bikini Contests at Tims you can believe it will be a good "visual".
It's a rough job
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
Hell, I'll get my gf in it. She'd beat most of those girls. She has got an ASS on her...
And onlydarksets, LOL very funny.
SBF, I really would love to come but I promised the misses to come down to Blacksburg so we can hide out in Buffalo Wild Wings this weekend wasted. I REALLY do want to try your BBQ, so please make some more for us for opening day. :)
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
Don't say I didn't invite you
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
Check me out with that link. Thanks for asking.
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
Sammy Baugh Fan,
You seem to be the BBQ king. Darn wish I lived in Northern VA. That Tim's place looks like a blast and the lovelies in the binkins looked great.
Re: BBQ & Bikinis THIS WEEKEND!
So SBF, you never answered... will you be smoking some BBQ for opening day? :)

Hello guys! Here are a few pictures from our visit to Utah county a few weeks ago for our break! We lost our main camera, so we only have a few pictures... oh well! We loved spending time with family, and they loved playing with Boston!
Uncle Tanner meeting Boston for the first time!
I got to have lunch with my old roommates, and we had a blast! Here is a picture of me with Boston and Bre with her baby Daxton. They are one month apart- so fun!
I couldn't believe the size difference between these two even through they are just a month apart!! Boston is such a chunk!
This video cracks me up... Boston figured out how to pull his hair, but he doesn't know how to let go! It shouldn't make me laugh as much as it does. :-) Enjoy this little video where we caught him in the act!

Also threw in a couple cute photos I took of Lily. <3
I posted a few more posts with new photos too but they got knocked back to the next page because this one was so long, so you'll have to view older posts to see them!
Oh and I realize a bunch of the photos repeated. But I have no patience to go in and try to fix it. Sorry.


text: I'm looking for suggestions where on a Friday night (8:30ish) I'd be able to get some cocktails or wine in a comfortable lounge type setting, be able to easily hold conversation, and not be packed in a crowd of people. I'm looking to be anywhere on the west side from 40th to 60th st. A small food menu is a plus but no a necessity. I rarely do drinks on Friday night and fear all my usual places will be very crowded.

I believe that there are two types of competitive people in the world. The first category includes the individuals with a manic motivation to outcompete others. Compelled to conquer, vigilant until victorious, these merciless mortals are driven by need, want and wish to succeed, and success is defined in relation to fellow hominids. The second category is those hapless humans with an unquenchable thirst to achieve. This craving is insatiable as its source is the realisation of the permanent undernourishment and underuse of their own potential. In fact, there are many people who perhaps have elements from both classes within their character, and switch according to situation. I, however, most frequently frequent the latter class. Never interested, stimulated or personally propelled by inclusion in team sports or team anything for that matter, my goad has always been competition against my only truly fair opponent, me. This most probably originated due to abysmal ability and horrendous humiliation in the world of primary school netball, and was further cultivated by carefully contrived excuses to then avoid group games. Presently my competitive nature is restless and impatient and has resorted to manifesting itself in the most peculiar ways.
Throughout my hospitalization, my arterial blood was lazy, lackadaisical and lethargic, resulting in frustratingly low systolic blood pressures. This hypotension was most inconvenient, as every attempt to mobilize was impeded by a temporary rush of heat, loss of hearing and feeling of faintness. The new competition, the new desperation, the new focus was for my blood to just be aggressive enough to exceed a systolic pressure of 100mmHg. Each time the cuff was wrapped around my diminutive bicep, I would silently plead for my desired result. I am proud to announce that the most recently recorded blood pressure was a whopping 104/54. My blood is once again winning one of my internal races. It is applying enough force as it leaves my heart to prevent the onset of a series of unpleasant symptoms. Now that blood has been dealt with, the question is, will muscle, gut or skin be the organ of my next challenge?

Sac Murai
I tried to make a simple design character, but with singular details. For me, Murai should look cute (like the other characters in the game) but I gave him a history. So that's why I created the Zippa Clan emblem (the yin yang with zipper in his back) and made that "scar" in his eye, all are tips of a previous story of the character Sac Murai. The Zippa pendant hanging on the zipper should turn that zipper a part of his costume. The intention was to not only maintain the sacboy look (zipper + sewing and burlap) but also integrate that elements with the looks and story of the character. I know. Too much writing. There's no help, I'm compulsive.

I remember the first time I ever heard a warning about the plethora (thanks for the word, El Guapo) of bad advice out there. I was 18, and a teacher told me to be very careful about granting authority. I was a naive 18, and tended to think that if an adult said it/wrote it, it must be true. Especially if they were famous or powerful. Or dead and published. It was really good advice.
We all know the dangers of listening to only one viewpoint/agenda/news channel. We begin to believe that one group is morally or intellectually superior. I keep wondering where Walter Cronkite went. He was someone we could pretty much count on to tell us truth. Now who has our ear? The outraged or the outrageous? Neither of which is as interested in facts as in persuasion?
And how about something as simple as healthy living? If we cut out every food, every activity, every thought process that someone out there is touting as destructive, what in the world would we eat? Even the nutritionists who study constantly keep changing the rules. Who is a real authority on health? I have come to the conclusion that there are still some things no one knows about the body. And it's a foregone conclusion that nothing we do will ensure a long and healthy life. You can't take the accidental/tragic/unknowable aspect from life, no matter what you do.
Financial advice? Sheesh! Millionaire of the Month Club. And how about the biggest one--how to live a good life and be happy? We either reach for our goals, strive every minute to be better/stronger/smarter, or we stop the madness, embrace each day, live in the moment, smell the roses. Or a thousand varied paths combining those. Can someone else tell us who we are and how we are to live? Should we listen if they do?
How to parent? More confusing and complicated than ever.
Every one I know of says,does, and advocates dumb things sometimes. I used fen-phen for heaven's sake. Talk about dumb. And I shudder to think of all the poison I drank in the form of diet soda. And yes, when I was a teenager I wore....sauna pants! I would love to say I have learned not to engage in stupid behavior, but I'm not there yet.
Imagine if things were black and white. If we knew how to fix the inequities of the world without making more mistakes. If we knew for sure who to believe. For now, we all need to listen for that voice that rings true. The ones who seem motivated by service, to the good of all. Who's got your ear?

While visiting Yellowstone National Park we stayed in Big Sky, Montana. This is the road that took us to our cabin. It was quite the view. I highly recommend a trip out west to anyone who has never gone.
As a photographer, I strive to connect to and capture the story and true beauty of the subject that I am shooting utilizing my unique perspective. Anyone who views my photographs should feel and experience that connection, thus sharing the story. I am a visual storyteller of the best moments this life and this wondrous world have to offer. This is what I provide my clients - years of timeless treasures. Everyone loves a great story, I hope you enjoy some of mine.

In the Netherlands, Van den Berg Roses grows six varieties of roses: Avalanche+, Avalanche Peach+, Avalanche Candy+, Avalanche Pink, Layla+ and Brocante+.
Van den Berg Roses thus has a wide range of colours in the Netherlands; see below for the current range.
The Avalanche+ line is known for its special qualities. The flowers have a strong stem, with surprisingly few thorns. Furthermore, the blooms have large, heavy buds that always open. In combination with vase life of up to 14 days, the Avalanche+ is a unique variety which has won many awards. The Avalanche+ varieties are often used for special events (such as royal weddings). For more information, visit the Avalanche+ website.
The white flower with a light-green tint, which gives the flower a fresh look. Both in bunches and in bouquets, the flower always looks amazing.
The colour of a soft, orange peach. The flower has a tender look, but is as strong as all the other Avalanche+ varieties.
A hard pink end of the petals with a lighter shade of pink on the outside makes every minute a surprise as this flower opens further.
Is the young pearl among the Avalanche+ varieties. The flower is a smooth pink, but with a slightly darker heart. The more it opens, the more the flower acquires a soft clear pink colour.
A cup-shaped, cherry red-coloured bud in a rose that sets a different tone within the otherwise predominantly red and white range of colours. With its distinct colour, appealing bud shape and very long vase life, this brings joy to many a consumer.
Warm, big, green buds with a reddish pink end give this flower a classic finesse. The authentic colours of the flower with a fine grained pattern highlight the characteristics of this flower.
White, with a drop of champagne, so can the strong rose SnowFox best be described. Bright green leaves make the Snowfox rays in the vase or arrangement, with courage, guts and a little arrogance - just like the real fox - this rose wins the hearts of the people. A rose that will fit into most homes, from modern to hip soothing classical!

Since Indie has been born I've been through eight changing bags that I can count off the top of my head. Usually the zips or the strap break after a couple months of use. Not surprisingly I decided to go for a large handbag this time because I'm finding changing bags not really serving their purpose. I am currently using this 'Soft Slouch Tote' from F&F at Tesco. At £20 I think it's pretty good value for the rate we go through them.
Below is what I have in my bag on a daily basis. When we go out I just add Indie's bottle of milk, and fill her lunch box and water cup before we leave.
- two nappies - warm hat - warm jumper -
- wet wipes - all over bib - spare long sleeved vest -
- two nappy sacks - spare socks - spare trousers -
- lunchbox - water cup - fork - dummy- alpen bar for snack - purse - keys - photo id -
What's in your changing bag?

We're leaving Saturday morning to drive out to PA. I have so much to do, packing, cleaning, preparing for our house-sitters & a couple other projects and I have to be careful not to overexert myself w/the pregnancy. I have no idea how much I'll actually accomplish in the next two days! I asked my mom if she could come help, but my sister came home from college to visit, so she stayed to visit. :/
I'm looking forward to our trip, but also worried about everything, too. Trying to potty train, long car rides, pregnancy issues, scheduling, staying in hotels, hoping Amber gets along with her cousins, etc. etc. etc...
Edit: What'd I've gotten done:
Fold & pack most of Amber's clothes for next week
Wash & dry towels & bibs
Pick up main floor (floors anyway, all the tables have stuff on them)
Wash guest bedding (about to go put it in the dryer)
Take meds
Things I need to do:
Make sure house sitters are all set for the week.
Fold & put away towels & bibs
Make guest bed
Wash, dry, fold & pack or put away the rest of Amber's clothes.
Pack my stuff (may require some more laundry)
Finish, wrap & pack gifts & such for family
Finish pillow & get it to Jenny
Pack things to keep us occupied, snacks, toiletries, etc.
A zillion other things I'm forgetting or ignoring at the moment (like the fact that EVERYTHING in the house needs cleaned!)

Too much to do!!

|Not the best shirt ever! The color - yuck!
This is my second time running this race and I will probably keep it as an annual event. For one, I live in Santa Rosa County and my children go to school here and, well, like I said, it is a great race!
The temperature was just about perfect. Probably in the high 40s or low 50s. This is a one-way race. You take a bus from the Lowe's parking lot in Gulf Breeze to the toll booth on the norht end of the bridge. Then you get to run back for 4.8 miles with 3 miles over the water! Like I said, this is a great race. There is the usual 'hump' like you have in just about all bridges and a small, and I mean small, downhill just before the finish. As long as you don't get a strong headwind, it's a good run. One you can PR in if you are running good.
I got the the bus area early like I always do. I'm not one of those runners that can show up 30 minutes or less before a race and then off we go. No, I have to get there early so I can calm the nerves and get my warm up run and stretches done. So, like I said, I got there early. The start time for the race was 7:30. I got on the bus at about 6:30. By the time they took off, we got to the start at about 6:45.
This is where things got a bit interesting. Like I have mentioned before, I like to get a good mile warm up before my runs. This time was no different. After I got done with my stretches and the usual potty stop, I headed out for my warm up run. Now I don't know if I have mentioned this before on this blog, but I have asthma. It is pretty much controlled and I don't have to use an inhaler often. However, the cold is a good trigger for an attack as well as nerves. I usually take a couple puffs of my inhaler before every race. For those races like this one where I have to take a bus to the start, I use the inhaler before I board the bus. Well, this time I forgot. So, combine the nerves and the cold, and bam, asthma attack. I probably hadn't gone a 1/4 mile when I started to wheez (sp). Not bad mind you, but wheezing none the less. I actually considered getting on one of the busses and going back to use my inhaler. I didn't!
I got my warm up mile done, got back to the start and relaxed a bit before the race. We did the anthem and then we were off. Like I said earlier, this is a 4.8 mile race. I didn't want to start off too fast and not be able to finish strong. I keep my pace around 7:45. First mile, no problems. Was holding a steady pace. Had a young lady about about the same pace and her and I stayed together for about a mile or so. Right around the 2nd mile, I started to feel heavy in the chest. I could really hear my breathing. The wheezing was worse then it had been on the warm up. Oh and this just happened to be a time when I was running with no music. Perfect right? NOT!
|Fatma and I
The after party for this race is awesome. Probably the only time that you will see 250 people eating huge hamburgers for breakfast (not me, I passed on the hamburgers). I placed 2nd in my AG last year and honestly thought I had a chance of placing this year. Alas, it was not to be. I placed 4th. Only 30 some seconds behind the 3rd place finisher. I'm very competitive and this bothered me to no end. Of the 3 people that placed in the top, I didn't recognize a single one of them. Unusual considering I race just about every weekend. You can be rest assured that I will pay closer attention to those around me next time. I know I could have pushed hard enough to have caught that guy! LMAO
Anyway, overall it was a good race. I managed to finish without have to cross the finish line in an ambulance!
As always my friends, remember "Real athletes run, all the rest just play games"!

From the world renown Puri, I reach the scanty, insipid town of Konark by bus, to be dropped around the not visible Sun temple. I walk through a narrow lane with shops of handicrafts and mementos on both sides and soon reach the dilapidated temple, stunningly zooming on me as I walk onward in wonder! The magical network of matchless, lively sculpture on granite all over, already starts casting its spell on me! The Black Pagoda(as the European sailors called the landmark),the culminating brilliance among Kalinga style temples, sprawling over a land of 860ft by 540ft amidst casuarinas, mahogany, rosewood plantations was built and completed between 1253 and 1260 A.D. by king Narasimhadeva-1 to proclaim the political supremacy of the Ganga dynasty. Creativity, energy and aesthetic commitment of 1200 artisans and architects, over a period of 12years with the state revenue receipts of 12years; and the temple was finally completed after some more confounding problems.
The entrance is guarded by two fantastically sculptured ferocious lions (Gajasimhas), each crushing a war elephant which in turn lies on the top of a human body. Then I climb into the, at present without roof, brilliant, multi-pillared Nata Mandir where the temple dancers performed in reverence to the Sun God. The lively dancing figurines all over the pillars around give an impression of some live performance going on! As I slowly walk on to the other side and descend the stairs, I have the majestic view of the Sun Temple in all its glory ascending before me!
Conceived as a huge, exquisitely and intricately sculptured Chariot with twelve pairs of giant sized wheels and seven horses (these horses by the side of the stair case on the eastern side of Jagamahana were broken and done away with.) with a beautiful image of Surya (Sun God meaning beautiful light) in the main temple behind. This 230ft.high structure perished due to fanatic brutal attacks by Kalapahad a Hindu Kayastha convert to Islam, general of the Sultan of Bengal in 1568. To begin with, the east-west aligned Konark, meaning essence of the corners(perhaps of the three corners namely Bhuvaneshwar, Puri and Konark forming the Golden Triangle), is nothing but a depiction of the philosophy of the living, the lively, and the full of life beings and things inspired by the life and sustenance giving phenomenon, Arka(Sun's name meaning, the essence of all).
As I start moving around the temple, I reach a wheel of the chariot, 9ft. in diameter, with eight thick and eight thin spokes displaying detailed, finest cut, carvings of a variety of gods and goddesses and scrolls of flora and fauna. The wheel also works as a sun clock during the day time. Such 24 wheels signify 24 hrs of the day. The base below the wheels all-round has a scroll of hundreds of elephants (about 1452) in different lively poses, carrying the king in some places, also warriors on elephants and horses with swords and shields in their hands, deer-hunters and also real life scenes of husking rice, bullock-carts, pilgrimages of old people.
The next level depicts imaginary figures like Gaja-Shardula (lion upon an elephant), Nara-vyala (lion upon a man), Naga-mithunas (half human, half serpent couples) and male and female figures in different poses; all life like with the best touch of chisel. The next level of Mitra's(Sun's name meaning fried of all) temple has wildest of the erotic sculptures with some astonishingly eye-catching amorous couples indulging in sex! Even Vastayana's Kam-sutra does not have a mention of such poses depicted with perfect knowledge of human anatomy by the artists! Of course, under the auspices of Hiranyagarbha (Sun: meaning the golden centered), the creator and nourishing (Pushna: one who nourishes, a name of Sun) deity of life in prime prosperity times; naughty, healthy, mutually consented natural heterosexuality is quite legitimate! Evidently sex was not a taboo and its uninhibited appreciation definitely seemed to be a sane gesture of social life in those days.
This huge platform around which I spend a whole lot of time is 16-1/2ft. in height and on this stands the 130ft high Jagamohana or Mukhashala (porch), the audience hall of the temple, with a terraced pyramidal roof. It has three tiers separated by high recesses containing figures of life sized dancing women with musical instruments depicting Devadasis at the time of Aarati.The walls again have three tiers like the platform, each tier having much larger, beautifully carved animal, human and imaginary figures. It has four black chlorite doors in four directions 14-1/2ft wide and rich with sculpture enhancing the impact of the structure. This 60ft square hall is packed with stone boulders, sand and lime since 1904 from inside for safety.
Behind the Porch are the remnants of the main temple which was 230ft high, the highest of the temples in India! The crumbled temple has 25-30ft. thick portions of walls remaining around the Sanctum Sanctorum which lead us into it through a flight of stairs. Three life like Parsva Devatas with seven horses and a variety of devotees, the Sun himself in different forms in chlorite stone on the walls and an artistic, huge throne with creepers and animals and king Narasimhadeva himself worshipping Bhaskara(Sun's name meaning one who leads to attainment) with his companions, carved on it still make us feel as if we are amidst life still breathing! The image of Surya is installed on the throne; even in their present condition they happen to be the rarest specimens of Konark sculptures!
Well the whole temple with its beautiful surrounding premises is a dream-cum-reality which makes the people forget themselves and definitely ushers their imagination to now horizons!

Hispanic girls are hot and the fact that Lyla is tied and punished makes her even hotter. Her executor putted clothespins on her body and he rubs her clitoris with a vibrator making her scream with pain and pleasure. She loves it and her tight body barely handles all that stimulation. Will she get fucked too?

I am a Year 7 student at St Pius X in Auckland, NZ. I am in Room 6 and my teacher is Mr Slade.
Thursday, April 5, 2012
Oktapodi is a short film that was set in Greece. Room 3 watched Oktapodi and was amazed by the graphics. Oktapodi means octopus! This morning we learned that about how to share your opinion with others. The main characters in the movie is orange octopus and a pink one.
The orange octopus thought that the man will take the pink octopus to chop her. When the man took the pink octopus away the orange octopus escaped and went after the pink octopus. When the orange octopus caught the pink octopus they both get away and then the man chased after them. After when the man caught them he let go of the both of the octopus as he accidently drove into the sea.
My opinion of this movie is that it is cool because Oktapodi imagined the man chopping the octopus.

Today I have a cherry blossom design to show you that I did using 'disco pink' by Maxfactor and acrylic paints. I also used a models own topcoat. I apologise for the sideways picture, every time I tried to rotate it, everything crashed!
I used two coats of the bright pink polish as a base colour. When it had completely dried I mixed brown paint with a tiny bit of black to make it very dark, then using a striping brush I drew on the branches. I made sure the branches were completely dry before using light and dark pink acrylic paint to dot on the blossoms. I did this using a brush rather than a dotting tool because I didn't want them to be perfect circles. I finished with a layer of topcoat to seal the design!

This weekend Chris and I finished creating the super-duper squirrel thwarting bird feeder. Though we don't drink soda, when it was on sale for $.59/bottle, I bought 10 bottles of it to create our thing! It took us over 2 months to finish the soda - we finally poured out the last few bottles full Saturday mroning!
My dad was with us on Saturday for most of the day. He's had Alzheimers for about 7 years now so isn't as sharp as he once was, but he and Chris did a great job putting together the contraption! In case you can't tell, there are lots of soda bottles strung on picture hanging wire between two poles. There are plates every so often just in case the darn squirrels get across the bottles. All of the bottles and plates spin lots if the squirrels land on them. In the very middle, too far (we hope) for squirrels to jump to, are the assorted bird feeders. We have some history with squirrels getting to bird food in our yard! We're hoping this will be the final solution! We like seeing the cute little guys run around the yard and bury the billions of acorns that fall from our many trees, but we do NOT like feeding them sunflower seeds! Those are for the birds!
This morning I rushed out to the studio, ready and raring to go to work on Bling Lady's face. I'd finished her bike helmet Friday (almost - it still needs a bit more fancy stuff on the rhinestone butterfly) and I was feeling excited to do more. I actually also had begun her face using a blown up photo that actually had the wrong colors in it. The first picture is of Friday's work with the purpler hue. Below that, the horizontal picture, is now that I've glazed it with more accurate colors. I can see a few things I still need t work on, but mostly the face is done. Now I get to do the body. I may finish it today or Wednesday. I have three days to work on it this week because Trinity has SAT's on Wed so I can't tutor then. I'm glad to have the extra time!

Silver Silk & Beads in Savannah Georgia
Sterling silver jewelry, handmade beaded jewelry, and accessories
There are numerous online casinos that you could choose to play your favourite games. Every casino offers distinctive games and rewards with appealing bonuses and on-going promotions to lure you into their company. It's understandable a single really should be cautious prior to sign up any online casino and deposit your hard-earned funds into the player's account in the casino. But, how do you understand if an online casino is right for you? What would be the items to consider in deciding a casino to sign up with? If you're confused which a single to go for, below would be the 4 tips which will unquestionably give you some hints.
1. Verify the legitimate of your online casino
You'll find far more rogue casinos (casinos that cheat cash) on the world-wide-web then the reputable online casinos. In case you accidentally sign-up and deposit your revenue into a rogue casino, most possibly you'll never ever have a opportunity with withdraw your funds out from the casino. Even you've got won and met the casino withdrawal requirements, the rogue casinos may have tons of causes that quit you from acquiring your money into your pocket. Hence, it is important to decide on a genuine and extremely reputable online casino to play at. These online casinos typically have been verified by an independent regulator such as eCOGRA (e-Commerce Online Gaming Regulation & Assurance) along with audited payout certifications as a safe play online casino.
2. Is the customer support service excellent?
A genuine online casino does not guarantee for a good customer service. Some casinos give very poor support to their players. They never response or take a few days just to response to your email enquiry; they may have live-chat, but let you waiting for a long time prior to reply to your chat message. You might absolutely get frustrate with the delay response from these casinos in case you have issues or problems that need immediate attention in the support team. For that reason, you should really always test the customer support service by sending email, chatting and even phone call to see how good their service is ahead of you sign up an account with them.
3. Check whether the online casinos support your preferred banking option
A good online casino won't be the best casino for you personally if it does not offer the banking options that are easy and convenient to make deposits and withdrawals. You can't play the casino games with real funds in the event you find no way to deposit the money into your player's account. Even if there is option for you personally to deposit your dollars to play the game, you may have difficulties to withdraw the revenue out from the player's account if the casino does not support a withdrawal option that suits you. Thus, you really should take the banking options into your consideration when choosing an online casino that meets your preferred needs.
4. Do you want to play with live dealer?
Most online casinos are operated by software and use a random number generator to roll the games. But, some gamblers may prefer the experience with real live casino games taking place in real-time with real dealers. A few famous online casinos have integrated live dealer games into their online casinos to provide the excitements for players who preferred to play with real dealer instead playing with software. If you are one particular of these players, then you must only contemplate online casinos with integrated live dealer games.
There are countless online casinos around the online. If you have a difficult time to decide on 1 to play at, use the above tips as your guide in selecting an online casino that meets your needs.

Public meeting on Queen Anne Elementary departures is July 20th
Posted on July 16th, 2017 by Laura Fonda
Last month, the City of Seattle held a public meeting on the departures requested for the renovation of and addition to Queen Anne Elementary. However, a resolution to the requested departures was not met, and now another public meeting is scheduled for Thursday, July 20th at 6pm in the Queen Anne Elementary cafeteria.
Queen Anne Elementary School is requesting departures from Code for the following:
1 – Increased lot coverage
2 – Modification of "required parking spaces"
3 – On-street bus loading and unloading
At Thursday's meeting, there will be a brief presentation on the requested modifications for the QAE renovation and a period for public comment. The committee will deliberate and consider the District's requests. Public comment received at the first meeting on June 6th will also be taken into consideration.
Written comments may be submitted by Tuesday, July 18th via email to: firstname.lastname@example.com.
You can learn more about the changes coming to Queen Anne Elementary here.
One response to "Public meeting on Queen Anne Elementary departures is July 20th"
Elimination of all off street parking is unacceptable. Seattle Public Schools needs to be held to the standard of a reasonable neighbor. There Should be at least 2 off street parking slots for each class room and half a dozen additional parking slots for administrators and other non-classroom employees.

Everett AquaSox Spotlight: Jason Goldstein
Jason Goldstein was promoted part way through the season from the Arizona league down in Peoria. Drafted in the 9th round this year by the Mariners, he hails from Illinois and is a spectacular defensive catcher. SSU had a chance to "catch" him and get him to open up a bit.
SSU: Obviously the AquaSox are your favorite team right now. But did you have a favorite one growing up?
JG: I grew up a Cubs fan. I grew up on the north side of Chicago.
SSU: Was there any player on the Cubs you grew up looking to emulate or look up to?
JG: Not really. The Cubs never really had a big name catcher, so I never really found that person. I liked watching Rizzo play or Bryant play, but catching wise I always went with Yadi(er Molina) and guys like that.
SSU: When did you know you wanted to be a professional ball player?
JG: Growing up, it was my favorite sport, and I was passionate about it. I enjoyed working hard at it. Honestly, who doesn't want to play a sport for a living? It's everyone's ultimate dream to do what they love to do for a career. Fortunately for me, the Mariners gave me a chance to possibly do that.
SSU: You attended the University of Illinois, going for an industrial engineering degree. Is that something you hope to get back to, 40 years from now after a successful major league career?
JG: Its a marketable degree for a lot of different fields and honestly, just going into college I was good at math and science. Engineering was a tough school to get into, so why not go for it? There is a mathematical and analytical side to it, and I think working in baseball after I've retired would be awesome. Working in a front office or GM position would be an ultimate goal down the road.
SSU: I did a little bit of reading on industrial engineering, as I wanted to find out what kind of engineering it exactly was. Turns out, it's focused on optimizing and streamlining processes. Do you apply that kind of thinking to how you play and approach the game?
JG: Obviously you want to optimize the performance from the mound, get as many people out on few pitches as possible, but I think having a math and science brain, engineering teaches you a lot of critical thinking. I do try to apply that to how I play the game.
SSU: You opened the season down in Peoria in extended spring training, for rehab. What did they have you do down there?
JG: I hurt my hamstring in March, playing in college. Took a week off, and kept playing through the year. It started to feel better towards the end of the season but it wasn't fully healed so they sent me down there to kind of ease in. I basically did nothing for a week, then 2 weeks before I started any physical training, then another 1-2 weeks before I started playing in any games.
SSU: I noticed you're listed as calling the games as a Fighting Illini. Is that rare at that level?
JG: Very rare. The coaches usually call the games. The pitching and head coaches had experience
