Finn McCool (Fionn mac Cumhail) an Irish Giant lived on an Antrim headland and, one day when going about his daily business, a Scottish Giant named Fingal began to shout insults and hurl abuse from across the channel. In anger Finn lifted a clod of earth and threw it at the giant as a challenge, The earth landed in the sea. Fingal retaliated with a rock thrown back at Finn and shouted that Finn was lucky that he wasn't a strong swimmer or he would have made sure he could never fight again. Finn was enraged and began lifting huge clumps of earth from the shore, throwing them so as to make a pathway for the Scottish giant to come and face him. However, by the time he finished making the crossing he had not slept for a week, and so instead devised a cunning plan to fool the Scot.
Finn disguised himself as a baby in a cot and when his adversary crossed the causeway & came to face him, Finn's wife told the Giant that Finn was away but said quietly; "Shhh now, don't wake the baby". The Scottish giant became apprehensive, for if the son was so huge, what size would the father be? In his haste to escape, Fingal sped back along the causeway Finn had built, tearing it up as he went to prevent Finn from following him. He is said to have fled to a cave on Staffa which is to this day named 'Fingal's Cave'.
Other versions of the legend include Finn throwing a huge piece of earth which then became the Isle Of Man and the hole which it left behind became Lough Neagh.
Since the 18th century The Giant's Causeway has often been described as 'The Eighth Wonder Of The World' and once you have visited the site you will quickly see why.
The area consists of an estimated 40,000 hexagonal basalt columns, which were formed during a volcanic eruption 60 million years ago.
Strangely, the Causeway is thought to have lain undiscovered by the outside world until a visit in 1692 from the Bishop Of Derry (Londonderry). The Bishop alerted authorities in Dublin, who then notified learned circles in London. Many papers were produced and many theories on how it had been formed were put forward.
Many of these theories were deeply rooted in science and although very valid, they make a very boring read. My favourite explanation of how the Giant's Causeway came to be, lies in the legend of Finn McCool.
After a three hour drive, we arrived in Bushmills.
Our brilliant B&B, Cottesmore. Everything about this place was spot on. Rae and John made us very welcome and comfortable for our stay.
Our lovely, romantic bedroom.
They also fed us like royalty!!!
(Note - white pudding as well as black - MMMMMM!)
(Note - white pudding as well as black - MMMMMM!)
The next morning, we were up and off early to make the most of the precious few winter hours of daylight. When we reached the Causeway car park, I noticed this lovely, well-preserved Georgian post box.
The National Trust have decided, in their wisdom, that the old information hut wasn't grand enough, so spent eight and a half MILLION pounds on this impressive new building. Does it need it? It's a beautiful thing, no doubt about that, with the columnar design meant to mimic the basalt of the Causeway.
We wanted to visit the causeway at dawn for pictures, but were bemused by the fact that the centre was only open from 9 –5PM, BUT it said the causeway was open dawn until dusk. How could this be??? As, if you look at their web site, it seems like you have to go through the centre to access the causeway (at £8:50 EACH). Not so. The causeway is OPEN ACCESS at all times, but of course, they would rather you pay. They also have all the parking close by sewn up, so I felt like I was being bullied into parting with my cash.
(so I didn't).
These are the columns through which you enter the centre. You can see the ticket machine on the right. You can't even get through the centre DOORS to ask a question without you pay your £8:50!!
The access tunnel has been 'swallowed up' at the side of the centre, but here it is – just in case YOU want to go and visit without being fleeced!
After passing through the tunnel, you can walk down this road to the causeway.
There is also a bus every 15 minutes, but we felt that the walk heightened the anticipation of what was to come.
When you turn the corner at the bottom of the road, THIS is what hits you!!
It really is amazing – and probably looks even better under strong sunlight. We were lucky today, as at least it wasn't raining or cold, but there was little direct sunlight.
Amazing to think all this is natural – it looks like something out of a film set.
This is a shot I took off the web of the Northern lights over the Causeway.
What we wouldn't give to be here at a time like this.
These columns make for a great sea defense, seeming to have no noticeable erosion at all!
Sue absolutely LOVED it here, and she said it lived up to all her expectations over the years.
You can see a video of the Causeway by clicking HERE
Another video of the Causeway click HERE
A panorama of the causeway.
Yours truly, as you can see, it was just us and the causeway!
Looking across to the 'Giants chimney'.
A video sweep around the Causeway HERE
This part doesn't look natural though, I think they may have blasted through for access.

Port Noffer.
The Giant's boot, said to have fallen from Fingal as he ran back to Scotland, having seen the size of Finn's 'baby'!
Just for size comparison, you HAVE to strike the pose!
(I wish I had a pound for everyone who's done this)
Sue too.
The amazing wall of basalt columns.
Causeway and Aird snout.
Panorama from Port Noffer.
Looking across Port Noffer to the Giants chimney.
The road to Fingal's cave.
Happy visitors.
There were several of these wooden benches, with legends inscribed on them.
These are called 'the Organ Pipes'. From a distance, it looks like they're in the mouth of a cave, but it's an optical illusion caused by the differing colours in the rock.
Sue stands by them for perspective.
A small, sunlit rock in the bay.
Looking up the Organ pipes.
Close by – the feature known as the 'Giants chimneys' – if they were smoking, Legend has it that Finn was home!
A short walk around the headland brought us to this – the end of the path!
That big landslip to the left was the cause of the closure, and the National trust have no intention of re-opening it.
So, the way back up was via the 162 'Shepherd's steps' to the top of the cliffs. These steps were built so shepherds could fetch errant sheep back up to pasture.
I think I'd have left them!
Looking across Port Noffer to the Causeway.
The cliffs, on top of which is the Heritage Coast walk.
Read about that walk by clicking HERE
Here's my little shepherdess, perched on the cliff edge, taking pics for me.
We had NO idea what this object was. Was it washed up on the beach?
Had it been built there?
Answers on a postcard........
I also had to get close to the edge for some shots.
A zoomed study of the other side of the Giant's chimney.
A really nice topographic plate, naming all the pertinent parts of the Causeway.
After a short walk, we decided to turn back and make tracks, as we only had a limited amount of time, and lots of plans on how to fill it.
A quick stop at the hotel for coffee and mince pies was in order though.
Nice name for an Irish bus company :-)
WHO should we meet inside, but Santa!!!
Apparently, Sue has been a GOOD girl all year, so she gave him her list.
(I hope she gave him mine, as well?).
We drove west along the coast to visit the remains of Dunluce castle.
You can read up about it by clicking HERE
There is a sort of 'visitor experience', but we didn't go in, preferring to walk the grounds, taking pictures.
Right underneath the castle was a cave, into which the surf crashed.
I HAD to go in and take pictures.
Not a good shot, but great seen with the eyes, this is looking out into open sea from the cave.
I tried to imagine the number of people who had come down here for various reasons over the years.
We walked up to that arch you can see - it's just a sheer cliff on the other side.
A panorama of the castle site.

We had time to visit one more place, as the light was beginning to fade already.
JUST the right conditions, and time of year, to visit 'The Dark hedges' - another location made famous in 'Game of Thrones'.
Very eerie - we'd never seen a place like this before. No wonder it was chosen for the series, but how do they FIND these amazing places???
It would look a lot kinder with leaves on the trees, but I had deliberately chosen this time of year for full effect.
This is what the 'Game of Thrones' program makers did to make it look authentic.
The next morning, we decided to hug the Heritage coast road around the north of Ireland, before heading inland for the airport when time demanded.
You can see why, even in this dull light, this coast is famed for it's beauty!
Driving along the Heritage coast road, I saw a small sign to Balintoy harbour. We didn't realise that this too was a location in G.O.T, but luckily we drove down the winding road to investigate.
What we saw was this beautiful, peaceful harbour. There was an information plaque explaining that it had been used as 'Pyke Harbour' in the series.
This was how it looked when we were there;
This is the information plaque that tells the story, with Theon Greyjoy staring out at you.
THIS is how it looked when the program makers had given it 'the treatment'.
Unfortunately, the cafe was closed (out of season), but it looks as though it thrives when it's busy here, which must be often.
The lovely Balintoy bay.
A video sweep around Balintoy harbour, click HERE
We moved on to Carrick-a-Rede and the famous rope bridge.
This huge lime kiln was unusual because it was a double one – not as efficient as it was first thought, so it wasn't used for very long.
A short walk (and another £11:20 – thanks National Trust) saw us at the rope bridge, or rather, above it.
A zoomed shot of the front of the fishing boat on Carick-a-rede island.You can see why they took SO MUCH trouble to get a boat into the water here, as the salmon fishing was some of the best in Ireland. The area to the right of the bridge is, in fact, the bowl of an extinct volcano. Acting like a dish, it offered a haven from the strong currents to the migrating fish. When fishermen found out about this – the salmon's days were numbered!
The rope (or, wire as it is now) bridge has been a magnet for visitors for years. The current one is very new. We were told it is guaranteed unbreakable, and is replaced every one million visitors. We were also told we were about 250,000th, so we were safe! Again, out of season, we were the only two people to cross the bridge and walk on the island while we were there.
Sadly, the rest of the island was closed to us for 'conservation reasons', so we could only stay on the short path (no reduction in price, though) ;-)
Steep steps lead down to the bouncy bridge.
This would unsettle a lot of people, indeed some have been SO frightened that they had to be recovered by boat from the island, refusing to make the return trip over the bridge (wimps!).
No such worries for Sue and I – we LOVED it.
My; 'I'm a celebrity - get me out of here' pose
This was what the fishermen used to catch the salmon from. It was lowered into the volcanic 'bowl' and it and the catch, often up to sixty TONS of salmon, hoisted back up to the small hut nearby on the island to be processed by hand, before being carried up the steep cliffs to local ice houses, then onward to markets.
Sheep island.
As we walked back along the cliffs, this little stonechat kept us company.
'Stackaboy island' – you can just see a wall there. Dolorite used to be mined in the area, and was transported to this little rock via a pulley, winch and tub system stretching right across from here to there.
The tubs would hit the wall, and tip out the Dolorite, which was then loaded onto boats. It was used to build a lot of the roads in Glasgow, Dublin & elsewhere.
Sheep island
As an early evening began to fall, we drove back.
The skies were magical, and I couldn't resist stopping the car to take a few pictures of the ethereal scene.
So – an early end to the day – but what to do NOW???? Too early to eat.
I suddenly remembered they did tours around the Bushmills distillery. It was 3:10 – what time was the last tour, we wondered?
We went in, to discover it was at 3:30 – RESULT!
You can read about Bushmills here;
This was the entrance, all Christmassy as befitted the time of year.
One hot toddy each was consumed while we waited for the tour to begin.
Unfortunately, no pictures of the actual inside of the distillery are allowed.
This one of an old still was ok though.
Of course, part of the tour included a tasting session, which Sue & I took full advantage of.
That evening, on advice from Rae, we went to the Tartine restaurant in the old distillers arms pub.
Again, there were few people there. Two more couples, and what looked like a party table of some sort, comprising about eight people, but that was it!
The a la carte menu looked a bit pricey, but they did an 'early bird' menu, which was much more reasonable.
We took advantage of that, and had three wonderful courses.
You can see their website here; HERE
The next day, we took a meandering course along the coast road, visiting a few waterfalls, before heading on a more direct route back to the airport and home.
We had been really lucky, and everything had gone according to plan.
This was only a quick tour, but had whetted our appetite, and we know we'll be coming back.

Next time you're raising a glass to those who have come before you, make sure you send out a cheer to our illustrious ancestors that came up with the blow job. Thousands of years later, it's still one of the greatest sexual inventions that we know. The power of the BJ is what brought you here, so might as well learn the art of giving a blow job correctly.
One of the most important skills in life is learning how to give a great blow job (or knowing how to ask for a great blow job from your girlfriend). Men are all different, but almost all men can agree that a blow job is one of the greatest sexual acts they could ever have. Here are a few tips to help you start getting the amazing blow jobs that you've always wanted.
- It's all about confidence – Even if your girlfriend is not not excited to give a blow job, it's very important that she acts like she is. Men are visual creatures, and nothing will be hotter than watching a sexy girl enjoy herself pleasuring him. Tell her to open your fly with confidence, and leave her reservations at the door. You can help your girlfriend feel more confident in her skills by telling her that she is very sexy, or that whatever she's doing feels so good. It will help raise her confidence in her blow job skills.
- Wetter IS Better – As you know, a man's penis is very sensitive. Don't be afraid to have your girlfriend use a lot of saliva to lubricate your penis. Nothing hurts you more than a rough touch on a dry penis. She really can't have too much lubrication. Once she has everything nice and wet, she's ready for the next step.
- Go slow – Trust me, you don't want her to rush. A blow job is the best ten minutes (or more) of a your day. Encourage her to go slow by running your fingers through her hair, or telling her how beautiful she looks. These are just a few ideas to help make the blow job last longer.
- Tease -She shouldn't spend every second on your penis, the rest of your body needs attention, too. Tell her to kiss her way up your stomach and chest, and gently kiss your neck.
- Don't stop – She'll be able to tell when you're nearing orgasm. When you're just about to the point of no return, have her keep doing whatever she is doing. A slight change in speed, pressure, or rhythm could be enough to make you lose your orgasm. Tell her not to stop, and keep going.
- The big finish – To spit or swallow? Ah, the classic predicament. It's all about personal preference. If she doesn't like the taste of semen, she can spit it out. If it doesn't bother her, swallowing adds a nice visual aspect to the blow job. If she absolutely doesn't want semen in her mouth, you can come on her chest. It will still be sexy to you, but won't make her gag.
As you can see, getting your girlfriend to give you amazing blow jobs isn't too tricky. If you keep these simple tips in mind, you will be seeing stars in no time. Just make sure you take the time to return the favor to her.

First of all I will briefly talk about it's characteristics and give some self-opinion about it. The Black Monster has 43mm case of 316L stainless steel, inside of it featuring the Seiko made 7S26 21 jewel mechanical movement. It isn't the best one, but accurate enough. Daily it deregulates +/- 15 seconds. To avoid each day resetting the time, day or date, you should wear it daily or just put on programmable watchwinder. This is because the Seiko 7S26 21 jewel mechanical movement isn't manually windable.
Seiko Men's SKX779 watch has 200 meters(660 feet) water resistant, thanks for screwdown crown and screw-in back. Some even says that this watch builds like a tank. Exactly the same felling you should get as soon as you take it to the hands. Seiko in this model added mineral glass crystal, which is scratch resistant. Even without magnification window day/date at 3 o'clock is visible pretty well.
Going to the inside of the watch the day/date wheels are made of a self lubricating plastic, so you won't have to worry about trouble at least decade. By the way, all of Monster series watches have torchlight lume, which let it stand out from the crowd of others. The watch safety is also guaranteed by the triple safety clasp stainless steel pinned link bracelet, it also features a wetsuit deployment clasp in advance (see in photo).
For short brief, Seiko Black Monster is attention worth purchase, which I sincerely recommend to every watch lover.
Main features:
- Movement - 21 Jewel Self Winding Automatic Movement
- Water Resistant - 200Meters(660 feet) Water Resistant
- Case Diameter - 46 MM
- Crystal - Hardlex Crystal

When Oliver Denoyer, 40, of Farmington, stopped for a soda at Convenience Barn, 13 W. Karsch Blvd. in Farmington, he thought all he'd get was something to quench his thirst. But he decided to purchase a "Silver 7s" Scratchers ticket and swallowed hard when he won the top prize of $77,000.
"I just stopped in to pick up a soda and a Lottery ticket," explained Denoyer, a frequent Scratchers player. "At first my family didn't believe it. They said 'You're lying; it's not real,' but it was no joke."
Denoyer purchased his winning ticket on March 10 and claimed his prize the next day at the Missouri Lottery's St. Louis office. Currently between jobs, Denoyer and his wife, Tiffany, said the money will come in handy.
"I'll pay bills. That will take up most of it," said Denoyer.
"Silver 7s" is a $5 game that offers more than 30 prizes and the chance to win up to 20 times on a single ticket.
Players must be 18 years or older to purchase Missouri Lottery tickets.
*In the event of a discrepancy, official winning numbers prevail over any numbers posted on this website.

VICTORVILLE � A Victorville man is being tried for allegedly attacking and committing violence against women in three generations of a single family in one night, prosecutors said Monday.
Brian Anthony McKinney, 44, is charged with five felonies related to the attack of his girlfriend, Candie Johnson; her daughter, Glynesha Phillips; and her mother, Clarize Swanson.
The charges stem from an argument that broke out between McKinney and Johnson in May 2004 at the couple's Victorville home, Deputy District Attorney David Foy said.
Foy told the jury that McKinney bit Johnson in the nose, and he showed them a picture of the injury.
He said Phillips tried to come to her mother's aid and a "tug-o-war" over Johnson ensued. McKinney then pushed Phillips away, at which point she began to throw things at the defendant, Foy said. During that battle, he said, McKinney pushed Swanson to the ground and she fractured her wrist.
Then McKinney wrestled a lamp away from Phillips and he struck her several times in the leg with it, Foy said. After that, Foy said, Phillips grabbed a knife that McKinney also was able to wrestle away from her, and scratched her arm with it in the process.
Foy said that while on the stand Swanson and Johnson both recanted, saying that nothing happened � a common occurrence in domestic violence trials.
Johnson said earlier in court that she loved McKinney, still loves him and wants him to be acquitted of all charges.
Phillips is the only victim whose description of the events of that night matched up with what all three women originally told law enforcement officials.
The five felony counts McKinney is facing includes causing injury to an elder or dependent because Swanson uses a walker to get around.
Foy would not tell a reporter how much time McKinney faces if he is convicted, in an effort to not prejudice the jury, he said.
However, Foy did tell the jury that McKinney has prior convictions for kidnapping, false imprisonment and assault with a firearm.

Professional Standards Manual
Trading Services
5. Strata Sales
(e) Additional Issues for Buyer's Agents
(i) Generally
Licensees acting for buyers have a general duty to provide buyers with information that is current, relevant and necessary for them to decide whether to acquire a property. For information with respect to obtaining strata documents, please refer to the "Obtaining Information" section above. Licensees also have a duty to be well informed, which includes the obligation to ascertain information necessary to protect their principal's interests, particularly when they are relying on the licensee's skill and judgment. With respect to strata properties, this requires licensees to exercise a reasonable degree of skill and care to be informed of the unique issues that can arise.
By relying on an owner's ability to authorize the listing licensee to obtain documents from the strata corporation, buyers can gain access to a number of documents that may have a bearing on whether buyers wish to acquire a particular strata lot, the price they are willing to pay, and the day-to-day operation of the strata development in which the strata lot is located. In providing this information to buyers, licensees should stress the importance of buyers reading the documents carefully, looking for any evidence of major repairs, continuing unresolved maintenance issues, use restrictions, or other concerns. Licensees should be aware that this process does not relieve them of the responsibility to use reasonable care and skill in the performance of their duties. Where there are matters beyond a licensee's scope of knowledge, buyers should be referred to an appropriate expert.
Licensees should fully explain and confirm what services they will be performing on behalf of the buyers and what the buyers will be attending to themselves. It is in a licensee's interest to confirm this in writing.
Licensees should always advise buyers to make their purchase "subject to" a property inspection. If buyers decline to have an inspection, licensees should confirm in writing to the buyer that they have advised the buyer to obtain an inspection and that the buyer has declined. Because such confirmation is not a term of the contract, the confirmation should not be included in the contract.
Some property inspections are restricted to the strata lot; others will include a limited investigation of the common property. Licensees should advise buyers to clarify with the inspector what services will be provided. An inspection that includes the common property is preferable, although more expensive than one that only includes the particular strata lot. An inspection of common property may also take additional time to co-ordinate access (to roofs or mechanical rooms for example) through the strata council or strata manager. Buyers may wish to confer with their property inspector about matters arising from the buyers' review of the documentation they have received or from the inspection itself.
If there are any expert reports regarding the building (e.g., building envelope, engineer's, etc.), licensees should make buyers aware of the existence of such reports and where they may be examined. (Refer to "Obtaining Information," noted previously, for further information respecting accessing the records of a strata corporation.) Licensees should stress to buyers the importance of reading them. Again, buyers may wish to confer with their property inspector or lawyer regarding these reports. If a report cannot be obtained, buyers should be advised to obtain legal advice before being bound to a contract of purchase and sale.
Licensees should always refer to the source of any information they pass on regarding the building and should always avoid making any personal representations about the building or about any of the information they pass on that has not been independently confirmed.
(ii) Strata Plan not Registered at the Time the Contract is Signed
A strata lot does not exist until the strata plan is deposited at the Land Title Office. In the event that a strata plan has not been registered at the time that a sales contract is executed, licensees should include in the contract a clause such as the following:
Strata Plan not Registered at the Time Contract Signed Clause
It is a fundamental term of this contract that a strata plan for the property, in the form provided to the Buyers at the time of signing this contract and attached as addendum, is fully registered in the appropriate Land Title Office on or before the Completion Date.
If the strata plan is not filed when a licensee prepares an offer for a proposed strata lot, any deposit must be paid into trust pending the filing of the strata plan at the Land Title Office, the readiness of the unit for occupancy, and the registration of the buyer's interest in the property. Whether the deposit is held in the licensee's brokerage trust account, or with the developer's lawyer or notary, section 18 of the Real Estate Development Marketing Act requires that the person holding the deposit holds it for the developer and the purchaser, and not as an agent for either of them. For details, see the section on deposits under the heading Real Estate Development Marketing Act.
(iii) Property Disclosure Statement
Often the first document that licensees working with buyers see regarding the condition of a property is the Property Disclosure Statement (PDS). This document is useful as a starting point for buyers to begin their due diligence process.
A buyer's agent should always recommend to the buyer that the PDS be incorporated into the Contract of Purchase and Sale. A buyer's legal remedies are severely curtailed if the buyer does NOT make the PDS part of the contract.
Merely attaching a PDS to a Contract of Purchase and Sale does NOT incorporate the PDS into the contract. Clear evidence must exist that all of the parties intend to make the PDS part of the contractual obligations between them. To clearly state that the PDS is incorporated into the Contract of Purchase and Sale, the following clause must be inserted into the contract:
Property Disclosure Statement — Strata Title Properties Clause
The attached Property Disclosure Statement — Strata Title Properties dated (date) is incorporated into and forms part of this contract.
If the Property Disclosure Statement — Strata Title Properties has not been attached to the offer at the time it was written, the licensee must use a subject clause to allow for approval of the Property Disclosure Statement — Strata Title Properties, as follows:
Buyer's Approval of Property Disclosure Statement — Strata Title Properties Clause
Subject to the Buyer on or before (date) obtaining and approving a Property Disclosure Statement — Strata Title Properties, with respect to information that reasonably may adversely affect the use or value of the strata lot, including any bylaw, item of repair or maintenance, special levy, judgment or other liability, whether actual or potential.
This condition is for the sole benefit of the Buyer.
If approved such statement will be incorporated into and form part of this contract.
A buyer's agent should still recommend a property inspection, even where there is a PDS that is incorporated into the Contract of Purchase and Sale. A buyer's agent should also recommend that the buyer carefully discuss the Property Disclosure Statement with the buyer's property inspector.
(iv) Bylaws
The bylaws of a strata corporation may contain provisions that can affect every aspect of life in the strata corporation. The bylaws may restrict the age of occupants, how strata lots may be used and whether the strata lot can be rented, who must repair and maintain strata lots and limited common property and when permission may be required to carry out alterations.
The buyer's agent should review the bylaws with the buyer to indicate those bylaws that may affect the buyer's ability to use the strata lot in the manner intended by the buyer. For additional information on bylaws, see the section entitled "Restriction on Use - Bylaws and Rules."
(v) Minutes
Discipline Record — Strata Minutes
The Commercial Appeals Commission found a buyer's agent negligent under section 9.12 of Real Estate Regulations, B.C. Reg. 75/61, in part, for failing to read the strata minutes in the 1999 sales of two Lower Mainland strata units. In this case, the buyer's agent did not ask about any problems with the strata building during the buyers' initial viewing or the parties' negotiations. The buyer's agent first raised questions about the building after the buyers had removed their subject clauses. When, under the contract of purchase and sale, the buyer's agent obtained copies of the minutes of the previous annual general meeting and the last 12 strata council meetings, the buyer's agent passed the documents to the buyers without reading them. Although the buyer's agent did not read the strata minutes, she recommended to one of the buyers that he read them. During her appeal, the buyer's agent argued, in part, that the 1995 Licensee Practice Manual, on which she apparently relied, required only that an agent provide the minutes to the buyer for review. Taking particular note of the "leaky condo" epidemic in the Lower Mainland, the Commission held the buyer's agent negligent for failing to sufficiently inquire into the building in question and for failing to read the minutes.
The Commercial Appeals Commission did not cite any legal authority, or offer any specific reasoning, to support its conclusion that failure to read the strata minutes amounted to negligence under the Real Estate Act. Nor did the Commission say what the buyer's agent is supposed to do with the information acquired by reading the minutes.
In view of this decision, a buyer's agent who does not read the strata minutes can never rule out the risk that he or she may be found negligent. It appears, however, that in this case, the licensee's duty to read the minutes emerged because she earlier failed to ask any questions about the condition of the building, which was located in an area known for leaky condos.
If a buyer's agent elects not to read the available strata minutes, the licensee should ensure that he or she has already made all the inquiries reasonably expected of a competent licensee acting as a buyer's agent. These inquiries include, but are not limited to, asking one or more of the sellers, the listing agent, or a strata council member about the history of any problems with the building and the strata lot, as well as reading the bylaws. The Council expects a buyer's agent to read the bylaws for restrictions.
Where the buyer's agent intends not to review certain other documents, such as minutes, as part of his or her services to the buyer, the licensee should make that very clear to the buyer to avoid any misunderstanding.
The licensee should also explain to the buyer the significance of the document in question and warn the buyer about the risks of not carefully reviewing the material himself or herself. The licensee should also warn the buyer to obtain professional advice if a document raises a question of a technical nature; for example, to get legal or engineering advice, where appropriate. Finally, it is recommended that the licensee record these communications in writing in case any dispute later occurs over the matter.
If the licensee reads the strata minutes, the licensee need only accurately pass on the relevant information in the minutes to the buyer. There is no general duty requiring the licensee to go behind the minutes to investigate matters reported in the minutes. A buyer's agent should warn the buyer that the licensee does not take exclusive responsibility for reviewing the minutes and that the buyer should still carefully read the minutes himself or herself. The buyer's agent should tell the buyer that the licensee reviews the minutes from a licensee's perspective and only to check for certain information about the property. The minutes will inform the buyer about more than the property; they will also give the buyer important information about the strata community. The licensee should also warn the buyer to obtain professional advice if the minutes raise any technical question. It is recommended that the licensee record these communications in writing.
(vi) Documentation
The concerns noted in the section "Obtaining Information" noted previously apply to the duties of licensees working with buyers as well. Licensees should ensure that buyers are provided with a current Form B. The safest approach for licensees acting for buyers is to obtain the buyer's written authorization and use it to request a current Form B at the time an offer is written. It may also be possible to avoid duplication of costs by providing a copy of that Form B to the buyer's lawyer or notary public.
Licensees should also refer to section "Land Title Documents" noted previously for information regarding strata plans.
(vii) Buyer has Reviewed the Documentation
Licensees are encouraged to use the Receipt of Strata Corporation Documentation Form, which can be downloaded from the Council's Forms web page, when providing copies of documents to interested buyers or their agents. For details, see Documents to Request and Their Significance.
Whether or not licensees have used the Receipt of Strata Corporation Documentation form, they are encouraged to use the following form of acknowledgement clause. Documents listed should include those documents itemized in the Receipt of Strata Corporation Documentation form.
Receipt of Strata Documentation Clause
The Buyer acknowledges having received and being satisfied with:
A Form "B" Information Certificate from the strata corporation dated (date), attaching the strata corporation's rules, current budget, the developer's Rental Disclosure Statement (if any), and the most recent depreciation report obtained by the strata corporation (if any).
If relevant, a Form "B" Information Certificate from the section dated (date), attaching the section's rules, current budget, the developer's Rental Disclosure Statement (if any), and the most recent depreciation report obtained by the strata corporation (if any).
A copy of the registered strata plan, any amendments to the strata plan, and any resolutions dealing with changes to common property.
The current bylaws and financial statements of the strata corporation, and any section to which the strata lot belongs.
The minutes of any meetings held between the period from (date) to (date) by the strata council, and by the members in annual or special general meetings, and by the members or the executive of any section to which the strata lot belongs.
The current insurance cover note explaining the strata corporation's insurance coverage and deductibles.
(*) Add all other documentation actually received.
(viii) Buyer has not Received or Reviewed the Documentation
Sections 36(3) and 59(1) of the Strata Property Act and section 25 of the Interpretation Act effectively give the strata corporation eight days, following a request, to deliver a Form B - and up to 15 days to provide copies of the other records referred to in the following clause. Additionally, Under the Strata Property Act, unless a request for documents is personally presented to a strata council member, the strata corporation is deemed not to have received the request for 4 days. Therefore the 8 and 15 day periods do not start until 4 days after the request was faxed, mailed or emailed to the strata corporation or strata manager. Licensees should recommend a subject removal date that allows enough time for the strata corporation or strata manager to receive and respond to a request and for buyers to review the records provided by the strata corporation. Where the listing licensee has not already obtained the documents, such that the listing licensee must now request them from the strata corporation, it may take up to 18 days for subject removal. However, a prudent listing licensee will ensure that most, if not all, of the documents referred to in the clauses below are obtained at the time of taking a listing. This may enable buyers to shorten the due diligence period if there is no change in the information contained in these documents since the time of taking the listing. Licensees should add or delete documents from the list if they have already been reviewed or if they do not apply.
Strata Documentation to be Provided Clause
Subject to the Buyer, on or before (date) * receiving and approving the following documents with respect to information that reasonably may adversely affect the use or value of the strata lot, including any bylaw, item of repair or maintenance, special levy, judgment or other liability, whether actual or potential:
A Form ''B'' Information Certificate from the strata corporation, attaching the strata corporation's rules, current budget, the developer's Rental Disclosure Statement (if any), and the most recent depreciation report obtained by the strata corporation (if any);
If relevant, a Form ''B'' Information Certificate from the section, attaching the section's rules, current budget, the developer's Rental Disclosure Statement (if any), and the most recent depreciation report obtained by the strata corporation (if any);
a copy of the registered strata plan, any amendments to the strata plan, and any resolutions dealing with changes to common property;
the current bylaws and financial statements of the strata corporation, and any section to which the strata corporation lot belongs;
the minutes of any meeting held between the period from (date) to (date) ** by the strata council, and by the members in annual or special general meetings, and by the members or the executive of any section to which the strata lot belongs; and
the current insurance cover note explaining the strata corporation's insurance coverage and deductibles.
[Include any other information, document, record or report the Buyer needs before being committed to buy.]
Immediately upon acceptance of this offer or counter-offer, the Seller will authorize the (Seller's/Buyer's) agent, to request***, at the (Seller's/Buyer's)† expense, complete copies of the documents listed above from the strata corporation or other source and to immediately, upon receipt, deliver the documents to the Buyer (or the Buyer's agent).
This condition is for the sole benefit of the Buyer.
*When an owner asks a strata corporation for one of the strata records listed here, in most cases section 36(3) of the Strata Property Act, when read together with section 25 of the Interpretation Act, and section 63(2) of the Strata Property Act, which deems that the request for documents is not received by a strata corporation until 4 days after they are received, permits the strata corporation up to 19 days to deliver the relevant records to the owner. If the listing licensee already has all of the records listed above, choose a reasonably short subject removal date. If the records are not available, allow up to 22 days from the date the offer is accepted. The 22 days represent four days to allow the strata corporation to receive the request, 15 days for the statutory delivery period plus three days for the buyer to review the documents.
**The Council recommends two years, but cautions licensees that this is just the beginning of the investigation. Any indication of issues regarding the finances or physical condition of the strata corporation or building may necessitate the further investigation of minutes beyond the two-year requirement.
***Use an authorization form such as the "Authorization to Agent to Obtain/Deliver Documentation" for this purpose.
† The wording of this clause allows for the parties to negotiate who will pay for the cost of obtaining these documents.
(ix) Strata Fees and Related Items
In addition to collecting strata fees for a strata lot's contribution to the operating fund and the contingency reserve fund, some strata corporations/sections charge user fees (sometimes called rent) for parking, storage facilities, or other services. In instances where there are charges in excess of the monthly strata fees, licensees should include the following clause in the Contract of Purchase and Sale:
Additional Fees Clause
The Buyer is also aware that the strata corporation (or the section if applicable) charges an additional (monthly, yearly, etc.) fee(s) for
(parking, storage, etc.) in the amount of $ (amount).
(x) Acknowledgement of Restriction on Use
The issue of restrictions on use is discussed previously in "Restrictions on Use" above. If the bylaws contain rental restrictions or there are other prohibitions, licensees should ensure that these restrictions have been disclosed to buyers.
(xi) Mixed Use
To more effectively enforce a quiet lifestyle in a mixed-use development, a strata corporation may amend its bylaws to restrict the activities of certain businesses that might operate in a non-residential strata lot. For instance, a bylaw may prohibit the owner of a non-residential strata lot from operating a nightclub or prevent operating a commercial business after 7:00 p.m.
If the strata corporation does not have a bylaw that limits the types of business or their activities that operate in the non-residential strata lots, a buyer's agent should point this out to the buyer. It is also a good idea to obtain a copy of the relevant zoning bylaw that shows what kinds of activities are permissible in the area in question and give it to the buyer.
In situations where the buyer wishes to make an offer conditional upon receiving a copy of the zoning bylaw and being satisfied with permitted activities, the following clause should be inserted in the Contract of Purchase and Sale.
Receipt of Zoning Bylaw Clause
Subject to the Buyer receiving a copy of the relevant zoning bylaw for the property and approving the uses permitted by (date).
This condition is for the sole benefit of the Buyer.
Ω If not using the standard form Contract of Purchase and Sale, refer to ''Contracts under Seal'
Change in Bylaws
The possibility exists that changes may be made in a strata corporation's bylaws between the date of acceptance of an offer and the completion date, particularly following annual general meetings or extraordinary meetings.
As outlined previously, licensees should obtain the minutes of the strata corporation's last Annual General Meeting, and any strata council meetings held in the interim, and deliver them to the buyers along with the amended bylaws. These minutes may contain changes in bylaws or a notice of motion to change bylaws that would be significant to the buyers' decision to purchase.
Notification of Changes in Bylaws or Rules Clause
The Seller will notify the Buyer before the completion date of any notice of a resolution to amend the bylaws or rules of the strata corporation, or the bylaws or rules of a section to which the strata lot belongs, or any amendment to such bylaws or rules, that the Seller has not previously disclosed to the Buyer. The Seller will promptly deliver a copy of the relevant resolution or notice of resolution to the Buyer.
Ώ Where such notification is provided to buyers, licensees should advise buyers to seek legal advice.
(xii) Special Levies
Owners are personally responsible for the contribution due from their strata lot for a special levy (formerly called a special assessment) which may be payable in one lump sum or by installments as set out in the ¾ Vote Resolution authorizing the special levy.
Before the completion date, the seller is the owner and is responsible for the contribution due from their strata lot. The buyer becomes the owner on the date the seller conveys his or her interest in the strata lot to the buyer. The conveyance marks the transition where the buyer becomes the owner who is responsible for the contribution due from the strata lot. Section 109 of the Strata Property Act states:
If a special levy is approved before a strata lot is conveyed to a purchaser,
(a) the person who is the owner of the strata lot immediately before the date the strata lot is conveyed owes the strata corporation the portion of the levy that is payable before the date the strata lot is conveyed, and
(b) the person who is the owner of the strata lot immediately after the date the strata lot is conveyed owes the strata corporation the portion of the levy that is payable on or after the date the strata lot is conveyed.
Special Levy Clauses
Sometimes the buyer may want protection against paying any portion of a special levy due after the completion date. These matters are often the subject of negotiation. Some sample clauses are shown below.
Where a special levy will likely be approved before the completion date, a licensee may use one of the following two clauses:
Seller Agrees to Hold Back to Pay for Special Levy Approved Before Completion Clause
If a special levy is approved before the completion date, the Seller shall credit the Buyer with the entire portion of the special levy that the Buyer is obligated to pay under the Strata Property Act and the Seller hereby directs the Buyer's lawyer or notary public to hold back such credit from the sale proceeds and to remit it to the strata corporation.
Seller and Buyer Negotiate the Portion of the Special Levy Due After Completion that the Seller Will Pay Clause
If a special levy is approved before the completion date, the Seller shall credit the Buyer with __% of the portion of the special levy that the Buyer is obligated to pay under the Strata Property Act and the Seller hereby directs the Buyer's lawyer or notary public to hold back such credit from the sale proceeds and to remit it to the strata corporation.
Where a special levy will likely be approved after the completion date or the licensee is uncertain whether the special levy will be considered for approval before or after the completion date, the licensee should use the following holdback clause:
Seller Agrees to Hold Back a Portion of the Purchase Price Where There is the Possibility of a Special Levy being Assessed in the Near Future Clause
A portion of the purchase price in the amount of $____, (the "Holdback") will be held by the lawyer or notary public acting for the Buyer in an interest bearing account until ____, 20__ (the "End Date"). The lawyer or notary public acting for the Buyer will pay to the strata corporation out of the Holdback and accrued interest any special levies (or similar levies charged by the strata corporation) that are levied and due and payable before the End Date. On the first business day after the End Date the lawyer or notary public acting for the Buyer will pay any remaining balance of the Holdback plus accrued interest to the Seller.
Ώ NOTE: Licensees should be aware that there are situations where the potential for levies arises and should advise their clients to seek legal advice as to the possible ramifications. Sellers should consult with their lawyer should they wish the buyers to appoint them as proxy on votes relating to a special levy resolution occurring after completion.
(xiii) Property Transfer Tax
The Property Transfer Tax Act has been amended to change the application of the property transfer tax to pre- sold strata units. Previously, tax was based on the fair market value of a pre-sold strata unit on the day the transfer was registered at the Land Title Office. Because the registration could be a year or more after the purchase and because the price of the strata unit generally appreciated over that time, a buyer would not know at the time the unit was purchased what amount of property purchase tax would need to be paid at the time of transfer. As a result of the amendment, tax will now be based on the consideration paid for the unit, including upgrades, at the time of purchase.

Homes Selling at Over $100 Million!
PALM BEACH, Fla. — Donald Trump's property for sale here has all the big-time extras one might expect. Pricey marble and 24-karat gold fixtures decorate bathrooms. There's a gargantuan fountain in the driveway and 475 feet of oceanfront out back.
Perhaps the biggest thing about the home, however, is its price tag: $125 million. But that price already has been trumped. A home in Aspen, Colo., is listed at $135 million. Another home in Lake Tahoe, Nev., was listed recently at a flat $100 million.
Holy crap! If anybody reading this can afford a home that expensive, my birthday is coming up in December… all I'm asking for is a measly $1million…
If any of the sellers need any SEO… hit me up!

Standard bed sizes are based on standard mattress sizes, which vary from country to country. Bed sizes also vary according to the size and degree of ornamentation of the bed frame. Dimensions and names vary considerably around the world, with most countries having their own standards and terminology. In addition, two mattresses with the same nominal size may still have slightly different dimensions, due to manufacturing tolerances, amount of padding, and support type.
Modern manufacturing conventions have produced many standard mattress and box spring sizes. Beds vary by country of origin as per the table below. These dimensions are for the mattress – actual bed frames are a little larger to accommodate the mattress. Mattress thickness varies considerably.
Memory foam consists mainly of polyurethane as well as additional chemicals increasing its viscosity and density. It is often referred to as "viscoelastic" polyurethane foam, or low-resilience polyurethane foam (LRPu). Higher-density memory foam softens in reaction to body heat, allowing it to mold to a warm body in a few minutes. Newer foams may recover more quickly to their original shape.[1]
Memory foam was developed in 1966 under a contract by NASA's Ames Research Center to improve the safety of aircraft cushions. Ames scientist Chiharu Kubokawa and Charles A. Yost of the Stencel Aero Engineering Corporation were major contributors to this project. The temperature-sensitive memory foam was initially referred to as "slow spring back foam"; Yost called it "temper foam".[2] Created by feeding gas into a polymer matrix, the foam has an open-cell solid structure that matches pressure against it, yet slowly springs back to its original shape.[3]
A mattress is a large pad for supporting the reclining body, used as a bed or as part of a bed. Mattresses may consist of a quilted or similarly fastened case, usually of heavy cloth, that contains hair, straw, cotton, foam rubber, etc., or a framework of metal springs.[1] Mattresses may also be filled with air[1] or water.
Mattresses are usually placed on top of a bed base which may be solid, as in the case of a platform bed, or elastic, e.g. with an upholstered wood and wire box spring or a slatted foundation. Popular in Europe, a divan[2] incorporates both mattress and foundation in a single upholstered, footed unit. Divans have at least one innerspring layer as well as cushioning materials. They may be supplied with a secondary mattress and/or a removable "topper." Mattresses may also be filled with air or water, or a variety of natural fibers, such as in futons. Kapok is a common mattress material in Southeast Asia, and coir in South Asia.

text: VA Board of Dentistry Notice of Intended Regulatory Action (NOIRA): Conforming Rules to ADA Guidelines on Moderate Sedation May 10, 2017 The Board of Dentistry is proposing amendments to terminology and requirements regarding the administration of conscious/moderate sedation. The VDA would suggest that all members who administer conscious/moderate sedation review these intended regulations and, should you have any comments or questions regarding them, a public comment period will open on May 15th. Summary of the Proposed Actions as stated in the NOIRA: A revision of the American Dental Association (ADA) Guidelines for Teaching the Comprehensive Control of Anxiety and Pain in Dentistry was published in October of 2016. Currently, Board regulations specify that education and training for conscious/moderate sedation must be consistent with the ADA Guidelines. With the revision, certain training requirements and uses of terminology are now inconsistent with the Guidelines, now entitled Guidelines for Teaching Pain Control and Sedation to Dentists and Dental Students. Consequently, the Board has: 1) amended the use of the term conscious/moderate sedation throughout the chapter to refer to moderate sedation; 2) changed the name of the Guidelines consistent with the 2016 title; and 3) eliminated the training for dentist to administer moderate sedation by the enteral method only, as the Guidelines no longer make a distinction for enteral administration and specify the same training for all who administer moderate sedation. A public comment period will open on May 15 and remain open until 5pm on June 14. The VDA will provide members with information on how to submit a comment when that becomes available. Click here for further details on the NOIRA.

Azinger names Floyd, Browne, Stockton to Ryder Cup staff
United States Ryder Cup captain Paul Azinger went for experience and friendship when choosing his staff for the 2008 Matches at Oakland Hills, picking former captains Raymond Floyd and Dave Stockton and good pal Olin Browne to serve as his assistants.
TULSA, Okla. -- United States Captain Paul Azinger has named former Ryder Cup Captains Raymond Floyd and Dave Stockton, along with Tour regular Olin Browne, to serve as assistants for the 2008 U.S. Ryder Cup Team.
The trio, announced Wednesday at a news conference at Southern Hills Country Club, will serve Sept. 16-21, 2008, at the 37th Ryder Cup at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Ky.
Floyd, 64, a four-time major champion, is a veteran of eight Ryder Cup Teams, posting a 12-16-3 record and serving as Captain in 1989. He won one of his two PGA Championships at Southern Hills in 1982.
Stockton, 64, won PGA Championships in 1970 at Southern Hills and in 1976 at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Md. He served on two Ryder Cup Teams, compiling a 3-1-1 record. Stockton was Captain in 1991, when the U.S. edged Europe, 14? to 13?, at The Ocean Course in Kiawah Island, S.C.
Browne, 48, is one of Azinger's closest friends on Tour, and owns three PGA Tour and four Nationwide Tour victories since joining the PGA Tour in 1995.
"The assistants really haven't been an integral part of the Ryder Cup until recently, and I believe now I've made a decision that with my picks, I'm going to make them an important part of this next Ryder Cup for me," said Azinger. "And, it is my intention to lean on these guys.
"Raymond Floyd won the PGA Championship here in 1982, and is a very good friend, a tremendous player, very intense, a great judge of talent. He has a love affair with the Ryder Cup. I love Raymond Floyd and I love his family and I want them to be a part of it, and I want them to be a part of it with me.
"Raymond and Dave were both Captains on Ryder Cup Teams that I played on. I think that there's a lot of wisdom in Raymond Floyd and Dave Stockton and a lot of experience that I plan on leaning on; and I think that together we're going to do everything we can to try to get this next Ryder Cup right."
Azinger called Browne "one of the smartest men I know."
"He's contemporary. He's in touch with the players; he knows what's going on out here," said Azinger. "All of the players love him and I wanted to share this Ryder Cup with him and his family as well."
Floyd echoed Azinger's comments about the new selection process helping form a stronger team.
"This is about a competition and your pride and you're playing for your country," said Floyd. "I just believe that they (Europe) have had a number of players that have played together often enough and they have a comfort level because they have won. They have had the good experience."
Stockton said that Europe's extra Captain assistants figured into a success story for past Ryder Cup Teams.
"One of the biggest things I saw between the Europeans and ourselves is we would have two assistants and they would have way more than two," said Stockton. "There was a group of people that were making an effort."
Browne called the invitation to serve as an assistant "an incredible honor."
"Golf is global, but the Ryder Cup has preceded the rest of golf in terms of that," said Browne. "I'm proud to represent my country and my tour and The PGA of America, and also the fact that Paul had the kind of confidence and faith to invite me into the fold. So, I'm basically speechless for the first time in my life."
Ten members of the 2008 U.S.12-member team that will compete against Europe will be selected following the 90th PGA Championship, Aug. 4-10, 2008, at Oakland Hills Country Club in Bloomfield Township, Mich. There will be four Captain's selections named at a date to be determined.

Former Twin Jack Morris elected to baseball Hall of Fame
ST. PAUL -- Make way for another Son of St. Paul in the Hall.
Jack Morris, a fiercely competitive and remarkably durable right-hander for 18 major league seasons, joined fellow St. Paul natives Dave Winfield and Paul Molitor with his election Sunday night to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
It only seemed fitting that Morris, who pitched the Twins to their last World Series title with 10 epic innings in Game 7 in 1991, had to go into extra innings one more time to win his permanent place in Cooperstown.
Morris joined former Detroit Tigers teammate Alan Trammell, a six-time all-star shortstop and 1984 World Series MVP, in Sunday's election via the Modern Baseball Era Committee. Morris, who failed to gain entry after 15 tries via the Baseball Writers' Association of America, was named on 14 of 16 ballots after a four-year waiting period for another crack at sporting immortality.
"It's nice to know your colleagues think highly of you, but we'll have to just wait and see," Morris told the Pioneer Press in January 2014 after his final BBWAA-related disappointment. "I think Jim Kaat and Tony Oliva are hall of famers, and they're still waiting for that call themselves. I think it has a lot to do with who's eligible in that particular year. Timing is huge in this crazy game."
The 62-year-old Morris, a three-time 20-game winner who also pitched for the Detroit Tigers, Toronto Blue Jays and Cleveland Indians, becomes the seventh former Twin to achieve Cooperstown recognition. In addition to Winfield and Molitor, he joins Rod Carew, fellow Twins TV analyst Bert Blyleven and the late Harmon Killebrew and Kirby Puckett on that list.
Former Twins outfielder Tony Oliva just missed election in veterans' committee voting in December 2014. Winfield was inducted in 2001 and Molitor in 2004.
Morris is a graduate of Highland Park High School who went on to pitch at Brigham Young University before the Tigers selected him in the fifth round of the 1976 draft.
Morris ended his professional career with a brief stint playing independent-league ball for the St. Paul Saints in 1995. He retired at age 41 despite drawing interest from the New York Yankees, who wanted him to make a tuneup start or two at Triple-A.
The winningest pitcher of the 1980s, Morris finished his 18-year big-league career with 254 wins and a 3.90 earned run average. Morris topped the 200-inning 11 times and recorded 175 complete games, most of any pitcher who started his career after 1976.
Trammell played his entire 20-year career with the Tigers and batted .285 with 185 homers and 1,003 RBIs. He had 2,365 career hits and stole 236 bases and was a five-time Gold Glove winner.
The six-time All-Star's best season was 1987, when he established career highs of 28 homers, 105 RBIs and a .343 batting average. He finished second in the American League MVP balloting behind Toronto's George Bell.
Trammell was MVP of the 1984 World Series when he batted .450 with two homers against his hometown Padres. Overall, he hit .333 with three homers and 11 RBIs in 13 postseason games.
Morris will be inducted next summer in a hall class that also could include former Twins slugger Jim Thome. Johan Santana also appears on the writers' ballot for the first time.
Twelve votes were needed for election in this process. Trammell received 13 votes, while Ted Simmons, Molitor's former Milwaukee Brewers teammate, fell one vote short.
Marvin Miller, the first executive director of the Major League Baseball Players Association, received seven votes. Falling shy of that mark were fellow finalists Steve Garvey, Tommy John, Don Mattingly, Dale Murphy, Dave Parker and Luis Tiant.

STONE (0. Eng. shin; the word is common to Teutonic languages, cf. Ger. Stein, Du. steen, Dan. and Swed. sten; the root is also seen in Gr. aria, pebble), a detached piece or fragment of rock. The word is thus applied to the small fragments scattered in the ground or on roads, to the water-worn pebbles of the sea shore or river beds, and to the hewn, dressed or shaped rock used as a building material, with which this article deals. A qualifying word generally accompanies " stone " when the term is applied to pieces of rock cut to a particular size and shape and used for a specific purpose, e.g. " mill-stone," " hearth-stone," " grave-stone," &c. The term " precious stone " is used of those minerals which, from their beauty of colour, &c., their rarity, and some-times their hardness, are valued for their suitability for ornaments (see GEMs). The word is also often applied to many objects resembling a stone or pebble, such as the hard kernel of certain fruits, as of the cherry, plum, peach, &c., or the calculi or con- Also called Janssen (Diet. Nat. Biog.), Jansen and Janson. Possibly he was the brother of the Gerard (Geraert) Jansen or John-son, of Southwark, who in 1616 executed the bust of Shakespeare in Stratford church; but it is uncertain whether the latter was identical with, or the son of, the Dutch tomb-maker Gerard Jansen described in Sir W. Dugdale's Diary as having, in 1593, lived for twenty-six years in England and as the father of five sons.cretions sometimes formed in the gall or urinary bladder or the kidneys (see BLADDER DISEASES and KIDNEY DISEASES). The " stone " has been a common measure of weight in north-western Europe. In Germany the " Stein" was of 20 to 22 lb. In the British system of weights the "legal" stone, or "horse-man's " weight is of 14 lb avoirdupois; in weighing wool it was also of 14 lb, but is now usually 16 lb. The " customary " stone for fish or butcher's meat is of 8 lb. Building-stone.—In selecting a stone for building purposes many important points have to be considered. The stone must be strong enough to bear the load placed, upon it, it must be durable and weather well in the atmosphere of the district, and its colour and appearance need to be studied. It must further be ascertained whether a sufficient supply is available, and the price also must be taken into account; some difficulty is often experienced in obtaining a suitable stone at a moderate cost, and considerations of expense frequently have more to do with the choice of a stone than the architect would wish. Where there is risk of fire, as is often the case in business and factory premises, it is necessary to select a stone able to stand the effect of a great heat without damage. Great experience of the strength of stones and, of their behaviour in different situations is desirable; but even when this knowledge is given and the greatest care is combined with it, some point may be overlooked. For example, the stone facing of the Houses of Parliament at Westminster was chosen on the recommendation of a committee composed of men of eminent scientific and technical skill; yet it has not weathered well because it is not constituted to resist the destroying effects of the London atmosphere. The prime factor in the choice of a building stone should be the climate to which the material has to be exposed. Stone that in the pure country air has proved extremely durable Constttumay quickly decay in an impure city atmosphere, or when subjected to the strong salt winds from the sea. tlOD• Extremes of temperature, too, are, generally speaking, prejudicial to the life of stone, the alternations of heat and cold setting up movements in the substances of the stone, which, though slight, will in many cases hasten its disintegration. There are few materials which more quickly decay and fail than stone placed under unsuitable conditions. An analysis, made by E. G. Clayton, of a sample of incrustation found on the Portland stone masonry of St Paul's Cathedral, London, gave the following result Weight per cent. Water. (lost at loo°) . 2•o6 Water (lost at 150°) 22.48 Carbon (soot) 1•Io Calcium sulphate 59'38 Calcium phosphate 2.22 Calcium silicate 1.63 Magnesium silicate o•67 Iron silicate 2.40 Sand and uncombined silica 8•o6End of Article: STONE (0.

Great Falls & Manchester, Montana Unusual Lights
Date: December 2005
Time: Evening
The Second time for me was December of 2005. I cannot tell you the actual shape of the objects because of where they hovered. (I will get to that)
This sighting was located on the Vaughn Frontage road Between Great Falls and Manchester (located 3 miles west of GF) A friend and I were traveling to Mary's Midway a bar located in Manchester, he was chatting on his cell phone so as the passenger I decided to look out the window. I know the area well, so just because it was dark does not mean I do not know what is out there. Please know that when you leave city limits in Montana there is no light, just the glow of the electric city located at the moment, to the rear of the truck which is east. As I was the passenger I was looking to the North at the moment of the occurrence.
That being said, to the north I witnessed fast moving plane like lights, only in white and a seafoam green color moving much faster then a jet from the ANG would be moving, only the lights were visible. To the Northwest there was what appeared to be a storm front moving in. These lights would appear seemingly out of nowhere, traveling at a low height horizontal to the horizon moving from north to northwest, where behind the low clouds of the front. The light would diffuse a bit but not disappear and seemed to settle behind them hovering for approx 7-10 seconds, this occurred 2 times, My friend witnessing the second set of lights.
I was not in a hurry to tell anyone but my friend. I told the couple we were meeting about it, this couple traveled from North of Vaughn approx 2 miles from Manchester. The lady turned white when he told her the story, later she said that on their drive to Mary's her husband and her were almost run off the road by bright lights traveling low and quickly across the road in front of them.
So that's my sightings, I feel like a fool, but oh well. Is there any other reports from this area? I know about the cattle mutilations from the 70's who here doesn't but are sightings frequent in this locale? Or am I losing it?
Thank you to the witness for the report.

UFO Sighting Report - Canada
August 22nd 2008 : West Of Stratford, Ontario
UFOINFO Sighting Form Report
West Of Stratford, Ontario Fireball Sighting
Date: August 22, 2008
Time: Approx: 9:30 p.m.
Location of Sighting: West of Stratford Ontario.
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Fireball.
Full Description of event/sighting: Just after dark I was sitting facing the west in my backyard, when through the trees I spotted a fiery ball approximately parallel to the line of my back neighbours roof. My view to the west is through backyards and trees, no buildings in the way. I pointed it out to 2 friends sitting with me and they both saw it. It looked like a flaming ball with dark smoke streams behind it. It traveled from the south towards the north west. My view was obscured sometimes, but I could see its path through a young willow tree by my back fence. Then I lost sight of it as it went farther north and the building blocked my view. Sadly my husband just missed it, because he is an amateur astronomer.
I have been watching my local newspaper but nothing was reported by anyone else.
Thank you to the witness for their report.
