Skirting the Issue by Alison Dahl Kelly
Create an elegant double layered lace skirt with a waistband and invisible zipper.
Layered skirt pattern (such as BurdaStyle Book Skirt)
1/2 yard of black scallop-edge lace
1/2 yard of lining fabric
Lightweight fusible interfacing
8"-long invisible zipper
Invisible zipper foot
Matching all-purpose thread
2 yards of white 7/8"-wide single fold bias tape
Sew It
Use 1/2" seam allowances.
Download the skirt pattern here; cut out. The longer skirt pattern is the lining pattern. The shorter skirt pattern is the overlay pattern.
From the lace, cut one overlay front on the fold, four overlay sides, one overlay back pair, one front facing on the fold and one back facing pair. Cut the skirt body pieces with the lower edges along the scallops.
From the lining fabric, cut one lining front on the fold, two lining side pairs, one lining back pair, two front facings on the fold and two back facing pairs. Transfer all pattern markings to the fabric.
From the interfacing, cut one front facing on the fold and one back facing pair.
Following the manufacturer's instructions, fuse the interfacing pieces to the corresponding lining wrong sides.
With right sides together and raw edges aligned, pin the lining side panels to the center-front panel; stitch, and then press the seam allowances toward the center-front panel.
With right sides together and raw edges aligned, pin the remaining side panels to the back panels; stitch, and then press the seam allowances toward the back panels.
With right sides together, pin the two assembled back pieces to the assembled front; stitch. Press open the seams, and then trim the seam allowances to 1/4".
Repeat to construct the lace overskirt. Trim the seam allowances to 1/4" and zigzag-finish the edges. Press the seam allowances toward the center.
With right sides facing up, align the overskirt over the lining, matching the waistband edges and seams. Baste the waistband seamline. Zigzag stitch the skirt upper edge close to the raw edge.
With right sides together, pin the interfaced back facing short edges to the interfaced front facing short edges; stitch. Press open the seams.
With right sides up, place the corresponding lace facings over the remaining lining facings; pin. Zigzag stitch close to the raw edges to secure. With right sides together, stitch the back facings to the front facing along the short edges.
With right sides together, pin the interfaced facing to the lace facing, aligning the side seams. Stitch the waistband upper edge. Press open the seam, and then trim the seam allowances to 1/4". Turn the waistband right side out; press.
With right sides together, pin the waistband lower edge to the skirt upper edge, aligning the side seams and center back edges; stitch. Press the seam toward the waistband and trim the seam allowance to 1/4".
Baste the overskirt to the lining along the center-back edges. Treat the skirts as a single layer.
Install an invisible zipper foot onto the machine. Open the zipper and place one tape right side down on one skirt center-back edge, aligning the fabric edge with the zipper tape edge and the uppermost zipper teeth with the waistband upper edge; pin. Fold the zipper tape above the uppermost teeth between the zipper and the skirt.
Stitch close to the zipper teeth, beginning at the notch and ending at the waistband upper edge. Repeat to pin and stitch the remaining zipper tape to the remaining skirt edge. Close the zipper.
With right sides together, pin the skirt center back seam below the zipper. Stitch from the notch at the zipper tape lower edge to the skirt lower edge. Press open the seam, and then trim the seam allowances to 1/4".
Unfold one bias tape long edge. Fold one bias tape short end 1/2" toward the wrong side; press. With right sides together, align the bias tape raw edge with the lining skirt lower edge; pin. Beginning at the short folded edge, stitch the tape to the skirt along the bias tape crease. Lap the binding end over the binding beginning. End stitching 1/4" beyond the bias tape beginning. Trim the excess binding. Fold the bias tape toward the skirt wrong side. Topstitch 1/8" from the remaining binding fold.

A View of Huaheine
Artist: John Webber
Plate: 31
Engraver: William Bryne
Printed by: Lahaina Printsellers, Ltd., 2016
This is a superior reproduction of the original antique copperplate engraving that was published by Strahan & Cadell in 1784. Taken from original field drawings by John Webber, Cook's artist on his third and final voyage of discovery into the Pacific, this pictorial illustrates the welcoming of Cook's ships as they pulled into Owharre Harbor on the island of Huaheine.
Of particular interest is the intricate detail in the engraving of the tropical setting and the natives in their traditional canoes.
In choosing John Webber as his artist for the voyage, Captain Cook wrote, "Mr. Webber was pitched upon, and engaged to embark with me, for the express purpose of supplying the unavoidable imperfections of written accounts, by enabling us to preserve, and to bring home, such drawings of the most memorable scenes of our transactions, as could be expected by a professed and skilled artist." *
We custom-print this facsimile on waterproof canvas in our Lahaina studio using the finest archival inks, which are tested and guaranteed not to fade or shift under normal circumstances for over 100 years. Modern printing techniques allow us to improve and enhance the historical subject matter, even as we're careful to preserve and maintain its historical and artistic integrity.
* Cook's Journal, January 1779

There are two types of clubs: Exclusive Membership Clubs, and General Membership Clubs
All clubs are required to charge their members dues, if funding is to be requested from the E-Club. The amount of dues charged each member shall be commensurate with the type of activity the club engages in, and expected operating expenses.
For non-sports related clubs, a $10.00 minimum per E-Club member of the club per year is recommended as dues. All non-E-Club members of the clubs must pay $10.00 plus normal E-Club members' dues as a minimum per person per year.
Sports type clubs are recommended to charge a minimum $10.00 per E-Club member per season of play. If an activity is non-seasonal, then a minimum of $10.00 per E-Club person, per year of play is recommended. All non-E-Club members of the clubs must pay $10.00 plus normal E-Club members dues as a minimum per person per season of play, or, per year.
If funds are requested from the E-Club to support club operations, or to purchase equipment, then an E-Club Budget Request form must be completed and submitted to the E-Club on an annual basis. Quarterly financial reports are REQUIRED from all clubs whether or not funding is requested. A budget request form for the following year will be presented to each club commissioner during an annual club commissioner's meeting held in November of each year (If the commissioner of a club cannot attend the meeting, a budget form may be requested through an E-Club board member). It is the responsibility of the commissioner of the club to ensure that this budget form is completed and received by the E-Club board of directors before December 15 each year. Budget requests that are not received by December 15 will not be eligible for financial aid for the following year.
Clubs will receive written confirmation from the E-Club not later than 31 January of the budget year that their budget request has been approved, or denied. If not fully funded, reason(s) will be supplied to the club indicating the reason(s) why.
If a club collects membership dues from its members, the funds collected must be kept in the club bank account, or forwarded to the E-Club for accountability. If a club has a bank account, then the account number, and a financial report must be submitted to the E-Club quarterly. This requirement is necessary to meet State and Federal guidelines. Quarterly financial reports are due by the 10th of the month of April (for 1st quarter), July (for 2nd quarter), October (for 3rd quarter), and January (for the 4th quarter of the previous year).
If a club does not have a club bank account, the club commissioner or treasurer must submit the collected yearly dues (seasonal fees for sporting activities) to the E-Club Treasurer for accountability. Submittal shall be in the form of a single cashiers check, made out to E-Club, in the amount of the total dues collected. In the case of sports related clubs that are seasonal in nature, this check shall be for the upcoming season. With the check submittal, a copy of the club's current membership roster will be included. This roster shall list all E-Club members with clock numbers, as well as non E-Club members, and the amount paid by each member. If other members join the club, those dues will be submitted to the E-Club treasurer in a similar fashion.
Special financial allowances can be made for general membership clubs on an individual basis. Financial assistance shall be requested through the standard Budget Request Form.This funding will be considered by the E-Club Budget Subcommittee.
If a club has not submitted a yearly budget request form or quarterly financial reports according to the provisions in this document, then the club will not be eligible to receive budgeted funds allocated for that club. When/If the budget request form and/or quarterly financial report(s) are received and approved, then funding allocations will be reinstated. The club must also maintain at least a 50% E-Club member roster to receive ANY funding.
Requests from a club for budgeted funds from E-Club should be made in writing with a copy of the original receipt. A phone or e-mail request may be accepted, but must be followed up with a written request and receipt to officially document the transaction. The written request must state the club name, date of request, individual requesting the payment, and the purpose of the requested funds. The written request shall be made to the E-Club Athletic Director for all clubs. A copy of the original receipt must be turned in within thirty days of receiving funds or no future funds will be issued until the receipt is received.
For sports related activities, there are two categories of eligible players:
The club commissioner, together with the E-Club Sports/Clubs Director, will decide the maximum allowable non-E-Club members on a team roster for the various sports related clubs, but that number shall never exceed half the roster.
The decision to allow non-E-Club members to participate will be decided by the individual sports activity commissioners along with the E-Club Sports/Clubs Director, on an individual club basis.
No E-Club member will be exempted from being on a team roster in lieu of a non-E-Club member. All leagues will be formed using E-Club members first, then completing the roster with non-E-Club members.
Sports clubs must have membership open to all of the E-Club's sponsoring organization Greenville employees, customer employees, retired employees, Credit Union employees, E-Club Promos, Inc employees and cafeteria employees.
Clubs and Hobbies related clubs are discouraged from having members that are non-E-Club members, spouses, or dependents living in an employee's household. These clubs are encouraged to form under the exclusive membership guidelines.
Non-E-Club members in general membership clubs are excluded from voting or holding officer positions in the club.
Each club must have a person responsible for interfacing with the E-Club board of directors. This person shall not be a current member of the E-Club board of directors. This person shall be designated as the club commissioner. The commissioner may hold any office position within the club, or as directed by the club by-laws.
The clubs shall maintain a roster of all persons in the club. This roster must include name, clock number, and E-Club membership status. The clock number information should be left blank where appropriate.
All clubs are encouraged to bring any ideas or problems to the attention of the E-Club Board of Directors through the Sports /Clubs director.
Each club shall maintain a detailed list of all assets bought with E-Club and/or club funds. The list shall include purchase amount, serial numbers if applicable, quantity, location and description of each item. A description of the intended use, upkeep, and storage provisions of these assets shall also be kept on file. The equipment will be listed on the annual budget request form.
All clubs should hold regular scheduled meetings (at least one per year) at a location that is easily accessible to all interested employees. Consideration should be taken to allow 2nd and 3rd shift members to attend, as well as spouses and dependents that cannot easily enter company property. The recreation hall is available to all E-Club sponsored clubs at no charge. To reserve a room and to arrange to pick-up and drop-off the door keys, contact the facilities department.
All sports related clubs are required to have each member on the roster fill out a liability release form. A copy of this form can be obtained from the E-Club Sports/Clubs Director. Completed liability release forms must be kept by each club/activity commissioner at least two years from date of completion.
If a club/activity publishes a newsletter, then it must be written, reproduced, and distributed on personal time. The E-Club's sponsoring organzation's reproduction and in-plant mail services will not be used for this purpose.
E-Club Board member Class definition:
Clubs sponsored by the E-Club are allowed to advertise and post current club news and notice of upcoming events in the weekly E-Trader publication. Ads shall be submitted to the Editor of the E-Trader, not to the E-Club. Submissions must be in accordance with the E-Trader guidelines.
Clubs sponsored by the E-Club are allowed to use the rec hall and other designated facilities at no expense for club activities. Arrangements for recreation building usage shall be coordinated with the Facilities Department at Ext. 7585. Usage of the Round Up Room must be coordinated with the E-Club board of directors.
Clubs are considered for financial assistance from the E-Club.
Clubs have a tax exempt status through the E-Club.

Pre-School Division
The Central Indiana Academy of Dance offers a specialized dance program for children beginning at age two. We take pride in the unique program which incorporates fun, singing, movement, props, basic steps, and terminology that prepares them for future dance classes. Our goal is for each child to improve in coordination and movement while gaining confidence in themselves and their ability. Once students reach a certain level of maturity and knowledge, they graduate to the next level and can eventually move into the Primary Division. As students progress they can then begin more intensive study with our Pre-Professional Division. Dancers in levels 3A and above also have the opportunity to become a Central Indiana Dance Ensemble member. We hope each dancer learns to enjoy and respect the art of dance.
Class Descriptions
Mommy & Me - Ages 2 & up by August 1st
Mommy and Me serves as an introduction to the art of dance in a nurturing environment ideal for the ages 2-3. Parents/Caregivers participate in exercises that are presented in an imaginative way for the active mind while satisfying the child's natural instinct for movement.
Beginning Movement/Tap - Age 3 by August 1st
This class is structured for the child who is ready to dance independently. Children are introduced to basic steps which promote rhythm and body awareness. Exercises promote early childhood development while focusing on gross motor skills and individual expression. The last 15 minutes of class will introduce the child to tap basics, with an emphasis on rhythm and musicality.
Creative Movement/Tap - Age 4 by August 1st
The Creative Movement class will begin to introduce the child to the structure of a ballet class. The child will continue to develop listening skills, strength, balance, turning and coordination. As in Beginning Movements, the last 15 minutes of class will be tap.
Pre-Ballet/Tap - Age 5 by August 1st
This class serves as an introduction to formal ballet instruction. Students will begin to build a foundation for ballet technique. Exercises will promote correct posture, basic ballet technique, and flexibility while continuing to develop gross motor skills, balance and strength. Children also begin to learn French ballet vocabulary and proper ballet etiquette. The last 15 minutes of class will concentrate on the tap skills necessary to prepare for Tap 1.

A number is agreed upon, but each MS, each arrondisment (that's "county" in French), and each tiny village will take that number as a suggestion rather than the rule. Some will enforce the limit exactly, others will give motorists a ten-mile range, still others will let the locals speed but issue tickets to cars with out-of-state plates.Lindahttps://firstname.lastname@example.com

Recognizing that IT security by definition is a team sport, IBM today announced it is adding a set of open application programming interfaces (APIs) to the IBM Security QRadar platformthrough which third-party organizations can build applications that can be accessed via a new IBM Security App Exchange marketplace. Kevin Skapinetz, director of strategy for IBM Security, says that given the simple fact that digital criminals now routinely share information concerning vulnerabilities and attack vectors, it benefits the IT security community to share as much intelligence as possible.
With that goal in mind, IBM previously agreed to share the IT security data it collects, which is a resource that IBM says over 2,000 organizations are now making use of to gather security intelligence. Now Skapinetz says IBM is taking that concept one step further by publishing an open set of APIs for its security analytics application.
The first four third-party vendors to make use of the IBM APIs are Bit9 + Carbon Black, BrightPoint Security, Exabeam and Resilient Systems. STEALTHbits and iSIGHT Partners also have apps in development.
The sad truth of the matter is that when it comes to IT security, most organizations are hopelessly outgunned. They generally don't have the expertise needed to proactively detect threats, which results in systems being compromised for months before anyone realizes those systems have been compromised. As in the days of yore, when merchants pooled their collective resources to defend their commerce from the threat of piracy, modern organizations need to be able to collaborate in ways that much better defend their IT security interests. After all, it's a lot easier for criminals to prey on a lone organization than it is one that is part of a much larger digital convoy.

Syndrome Deck Doccinar
The Syndrome Deck allows you to INSTANTLY know any card FREELY chosen from a SHUFFLED and examined deck!
The Syndrome Deck allows you to INSTANTLY know any card FREELY chosen from a SHUFFLED and examined deck!
The Syndrome Deck allows you to INSTANTLY know any card FREELY chosen from a SHUFFLED and examined deck!
Here's one effect:
The deck is shuffled by you and the spectator. You turn your head so you can't see his selection. He chooses any card – a completely free choice. You INSTANTLY know his card!
Here's another trick.
The spectator replaces his card anywhere in the deck. You cut the cards and he shuffles them. With any witty patter, you tell him the card he claimed to have chosen isn't in the deck. He goes through the cards and his is the only card missing!
This is only a couple of examples of what the Syndrome Deck can do.
There are virtually 1000s of effects possible.
You instantly know any card chosen.
You can instantly find any card chosen.
You can control a spectator's choice of color.
The deck can be used in any normal card effect.
The cards are examinable by the audience.
The deck can be shuffled and cut by the spectator.
Riffle, overhand shuffles and cuts can be used.
The Syndrome Deck is an EXAMINABLE, SHUFFLE-ABLE deck of cards that enables you to perform at least a 1000 different effects!
A good gimmicked deck of cards can make a reputation for a mentalist or magician. Look at Brainwave and the Ultra Mental or Invisible deck. It's almost impossible to beat them for direct effect and clean operation – but the Syndrome Deck beats them! Because it's EXAMINABLE.
A stacked or memorized deck is an awesome weapon. There are endless great effects possible. But as soon as a spectator shuffles the cards, you're lost! The Syndrome Deck is miles above that thinking. It's SHUFFLE-ABLE!
And yet, the Syndrome Deck isn't really a gimmicked deck. It has all 52 cards and a joker. It can be used for any card effect that requires a normal deck. It can be handled by spectators. And it remains secretly gimmicked.
The Syndrome Deck isn't really a stacked deck either. It can be shuffled by you or any spectator. It can be overhand, dovetail or riffled shuffled face up! When spread face up, you'll see the order of the cards change after every shuffle. And the Syndrome Deck remains in order!
Based on a new principle, Docc Hilford's Syndrome Deck gimmick can be applied to any deck of playing cards in less than 3 minutes at home or at a show!
Once you understand the gimmick and secret arrangement, you will always have it ready to apply to any deck of cards.
No special printed cards
No rough and smooth
No duplicate cards
No marked cards
No sleight of hand
No memorization
No force cards
No reflectors
The SYNDROME DECK is fully explained on a 25 minute MP4 video.
It includes a full hour MP3 audio Doccinar of deeper handlings and more presentations.
And finally a follow up LIVE conference call to answer any questions you have about the deck. (A $19 value)
All of this plus the most exciting deck in years … Only $49
BONUS - Included in the hour Doccinar is an exclusive method of revealing any UNWRITTEN question with a single playing card! A presentation that works with the Syndrome Deck like magic! This is a precursor to 1 Card Q&A.
The SYNDROME DECK Q&A is included FREE. (a $19 value)

BabyCentre facts
Baby's weight – about as much as a coconut, nearly 1.7kg
Length – 42.4cm, head to heel
Pre-pregnancy, I used to look at expectant women and wonder quite literally how they slept at night.
The idea of having a baby terrified me – to the extent that if I thought about it too much I would start to feel incredibly anxious. And, as I say, I wasn't even pregnant.
Now here I am, with eight weeks to go until B(aby)-day, and on the whole I feel surprisingly calm.
You see, pre-pregnancy you only focus on the physical, and not how you will feel emotionally towards the little person you have been carrying around for nine months.
Yes, there are the 8-12 traumatic hours to get through – but at the other side, our baby boy will be here, and life will never be the same again.
My more zen-like approach to the birth – which my Spanish doctor has told me will be easy anyway – phew!) – has been assisted by my weekly preparation classes at the maternity clinic.
It's definitely worth the expense. As it turns out, I was completely clueless when it comes to babies, let alone giving birth.
I have never seen a friend experience pregnancy, nor have I spent a great deal of time with newborns… I have held 2 babies in my lifetime, while Chris has held just the one for all of two minutes. And he spent those two minutes sat rigidly on a sofa.
So, this really will be a baptism of fire.
But I have been taking all the notes I can and asking every question that pops into my head, no matter how stupid it might seem. After all, I am not asking anything that hasn't been asked before, as Josefina keeps telling me.
So, here I am in my final trimester, and by rights I should be absolutely terrified.
But this really is the happiest and most contented I have been in my whole life. Yes, there are still the odd sleepless nights, but it doesn't take me long to forget my worries and fall asleep again. Because our baby is absolutely worth it.

Using the LEGO brand name
Please help us to protect our brand name:
• The LEGO brand name should always be written in capital letters
• LEGO must never be used as a generic term or in the plural or as a
possessive pronoun, e.g. "LEGO's".
• When the LEGO brand name is used as part of a noun, it must never
appear on its own. It should always be accompanied by a noun. For ex
ample, LEGO set, LEGO products, LEGO Group, LEGO play materials,
LEGO bricks, LEGO universe, etc.
• The first time the LEGO brand name appears it must be accompanied
by the Registered symbol ®.
Thank you for helping us!

As scheduled, id Software opened up the Quake Live beta to the public late yesterday. The browser-based multiplayer shooter (and Quake III: Arena redux) is now accessible through www.quakelive.com.
To play, you'll need to sign up with your name and e-mail address, download the browser plug-in (Firefox and Internet Explorer for Windows only), then set up your character. After that, you'll be invited to play a training match against a bot, which will assess your fragging proficiency for skill-matching in proper multiplayer games. When you start looking for a server, you'll be able to choose a game either at or above your skill level.
In related news, id Software's John Carmack told the folks at the MTV Multiplayer blog that he's working on a version of Quake III for the iPhone. The game is up and running on the handset, he says, although it needs "a new redesign of the render [sic] to make it fast enough to be really good playing on the iPhone." Carmack adds that some Quake Live elements could make their way into the game, thus creating "more of a modern 'Quake III Arena' based on the 'Quake Live' work. Which would be pretty cool."

Recently, we were discussing the variety of styles in timber handrails and balustrades that have recently come to the forefront in design interiors and exteriors. With materials as diverse as steel, glass and stone currently in fashion, we asked the question; what makes wood such a consistent favourite, in spite of all the other choices available? In the end we concluded it was down to something more than personal taste and what best fitted the style of someone's home. Wood, it seems, provides a sense of warmth and comfort that none of the other choices can come close to. With this in mind, attention turned to our current stock.
Over here at Woodstock Timber we carry a large stock of handrail and balustrade timber. These include traditional Ladies Waist and Breadloaf style handrails, Bottom Rails and Balusters in both merbau and pre-primed pine. We also stock stunning solid balustrading, a popular design feature over the last few years, in merbau.
Merbau is a tropical wood, deep brown or red in appearance, with a coarse grain and a gold flecked effect when the light hits. An increasingly popular choice for both indoor staircases, and outdoor decking and verandahs, merbau gives a depth of warmth to any interior, and an imposing quality to outdoor verandahs and balustrading. Merbau also has a natural hardness that offers good resistance to knocks and scrapes and helps keep its look for many years - and with 2013 trends moving more towards organic, natural-looking wood with a tactile quality, it is an inspirational choice for handrails and balustrades as well as flooring.
Pre-primed pine on the other hand, provides serviceability and durability as well as a timeless look. Being pre-treated ensures it is one of the more versatile timber options available. Treated pine weathers well in any setting and here in Brisbane with the seasonal fluctuations it is an extremely intelligent choice for both indoor and outdoor features.
So have a look around you, and if you're considering upgrading or remodelling features of your home such as staircases, decking, or verandahs, you might want to think about the kind of look you'd ultimately like to achieve. Is it classic and timeless or contemporary and tactile? Then you might want to pay us a visit and have a look at our current timber handrails and baluster stock.

Angrily, he shook his head. Everyone was always telling him what to do. He shook his head again, mane flying everywhere. He would show them. He would show them all, how he COULD be responsible and that he COULD look after himself and that he WASN'T a baby anymore.
His mother and father were the worst. He had always wanted to please his father, but to do that, he would have to do something great… and against the rules. So when he did try and please him, never did he get a 'Wow, this is great!' or 'I've always wanted this. Thanks son!' or, even worse, an 'I'm so proud of you.' It was always, 'You disobeyed the rules again? How many times do I have to tell you not to do that? Now you'll have to help your mother go and harvest flowers.'
He stuck out his tongue and his chin defiantly, imagining his father stood in front of him. "I don't care what you say. I'm old enough to make decisions for myself, and that's what I'm gonna do. I'll become an Elemental, so everyone will shake when they see me and say 'Have mercy on us!'. Or maybe I'll become a Warrior and fight all the evil from the land and become the greatest hero of all time. Or I'll become a Rogue, and everyone will fear me and my wrath. Boy won't you and Mom be sorry then."
Then am idea struck him. Slowly, his lips twisted into a smile. He had had a perfect idea. "I'll make my own club," he whispered. "For foals only. Without parents. And I'll rule them all and protect them and the only way to become the next leader would be to defeat me in battle, and no one would try that." He flexed his muscles to his taste. "Just think how proud Mom and Dad will be." With a huge grin on his face, he trotted deeper into the forest, short tail twitching in anticipation.

text: Firefighters Who Lost Their Hearing Sue Siren Maker They say company didn't do enough to protect them By Newser Editors and Wire Services Posted Dec 21, 2015 3:33 AM CST 17 comments Comments In this March 12, 2014, file photo, firefighters respond to a fire after an explosion and building collapse in the East Harlem neighborhood of New York. (John Minchillo) View 1 more image (Newser) – Around 4,400 current and former firefighters nationwide are suing Federal Signal Corp., an Illinois-based company that makes sirens, claiming it didn't do enough to make them safer for those on firetrucks who have to listen to them nearly every day. They say the company could have designed them in a way that directs the volume away from areas where firefighters sit in the engines, shielding them from sound blasts that lawyers say reach 120 decibels, roughly equivalent to a rock concert. "The manufacturer had the means and ability to do something about it and they didn't," says former FDNY Battalion Chief Joseph Nardone. "The siren was so loud inside the cab that it actually physically hurt." The 73-year-old says the effects of the sirens linger in hearing loss more than a decade after his retirement. Federal Signal argues that directing the sound defeats one of the main purposes of a siren—to warn motorists and pedestrians that a truck is coming. And it says it has long supported what many departments have advised its firefighters to do: wear ear protection. The lawsuits began surfacing more than a decade ago and the company says juries have found in its favor in most of the half-dozen or so suits that have gone to trial. The company also has settled in some cases without admitting any wrongdoing. The largest settlement, reached in 2011, required the company to pay $3.6 million to 1,069 firefighters for cases filed in Philadelphia. (Modern homes are blamed for the leading cause of line-of-duty deaths for US firefighters.)

Obama, pizza, and the forgotten man
By Michael M. Bates
Barack Obama has a special appeal to youth, as evidenced by the $4,600 campaign contribution he received from one 8-year-old boy. Sibling rivalry may have played a role as the kid's sister matched his contribution with her own to the Illinois Democrat.
Gallantly deciding he doesn't take money from admirers younger than 16, Mr. Ethical returned those payments. The fact this was done just as USA Today questioned them was, we can be certain, strictly a coincidence.
Recently at a North Carolina appearance, the senator denied press appeals to answer questions. Hadassah Jones, a 5-year-old Internet "correspondent," reacted to the rock star's refusal by turning on the tears, a stratagem the wily Mrs. Clinton may yet employ this campaign season.
The senator relented for the little girl. According to the Associated Press, Obama "suggested to the first-grader that wealthier people should help those who are less fortunate.
"We've got to make sure that people who have more money help the people who have less money," Obama said. "If you had a whole pizza, and your friend had no pizza, would you give him a slice?"
You might at first believe that Barry, making an allowance for his listener, dumbed down his answer to blur the obvious distinction between voluntary charity, which is what he described, and a coercive welfare state, which is what he and other liberals advocate.
You'd be wrong. Many Democrats, maybe most of them, don't see a difference. Their rhetoric is infused with insinuations of moral superiority based on their stated intention to really, really help the less fortunate. That this assistance invariably comes from someone else is disregarded.
If Mr. Obama wanted to more accurately convey what liberalism is all about, he would have told the child:
"If you had a whole pizza, it's not really yours. The government has first claim on all your money and property. This is, as President Clinton once explained, because you might not use it right. And the government is here to make sure you do what's right.
"Remember when I told you we've got to make sure that people who have more help the people who have less? 'Making sure' means using force when necessary. For people who won't willingly get with the program we have a special place; it's called jail, a bad place for bad people who can't afford presidential pardons.
"So we're going to take away quite a bit of your pizza and give it to someone else. It's remotely possible that person is your friend who has no pizza, but it's more likely you've never met the person. Maybe it'll be someone very hungry. Maybe it'll be someone very needy. Maybe it'll be someone who just doesn't want to work for his own pizza, but believes in his heart that he still deserves some. Heck, maybe it'll be an illegal immigrant, I mean, undocumented worker. They've got their rights, too.
"The point is: who gets it is none of your business and you have no right to know. Your job is to give up as much of your pizza as needed to show how compassionate we are. Surely we wouldn't want to be the only large, industrialized nation that doesn't guarantee free universal pizza to all its citizens.
"By the way, in addition to the pizza we'll give to someone else, we'll have to take another large slice. That's for administrative expenses. It's needed for the people who operate essential human services like pizza redistribution. Yet another slice will go for the fraud, waste and mismanagement that are a significant part of every large bureaucratic program.
"If there's anything left, it's all yours. Now don't you feel better knowing how many people you're helping?"
When liberals speak of government programs, they usually stop just short of identifying who will finance them. In her excellent Great Depression history, The Forgotten Man, author Amity Shlaes tells of an essay by 19th century philosopher William Graham Sumner, who observed:
"As soon as A observes something which seems to him to be wrong, from which X is suffering, A talks it over with B, and A and B then propose to get a law passed to remedy the evil and help X. Their law proposes to determine . . . what A, B, and C shall do for X."
Ms. Shlaes goes on: "But what about C? There was nothing wrong with A and B helping X. What was wrong was the law, and the indenturing of C to the cause. C was the forgotten man, the man who paid, 'the man who is never thought of.'"
All the forgotten men –and women – who've shouldered the burden for government extravagances from farm subsidies for millionaires to federal grants for the National Cowgirl Museum can find solace in Senator Obama's construct. They're just sharing pizza with a friend. What could be fairer?
Barry Goldwater ran on the slogan, "In your heart, you know he's right." With Barack Obama, in your heart, you know he's trite. Which helps explain why he's a rock star among Democrats.
This Michael Bates column appeared in the November 8, 2007 Reporter Newspapers.

books, career, dreamjob, dreams, faulkner, inspiration, passions, thesoundandthefury, wingit
I've just finished reading the Sound and the Fury by William Faulkner. Certainly a challenging read but I found myself quite gripped to it none the less.
When I read stories about all the troubles of different family members throughout their lifespans, I sometimes find this quite depressing. Especially if these stories span over more than just one generation. Obviously as is the case with this book, this depends a lot on the plot of the novel… The main theme of this one was about the falling of the Compson family into disrepair and how each family member is screwed up in their own way. But generally I just find these stories a bit too easy to be taken literally. This 'type' of novel probably has a genre but quite often it seems that classic novels have this cynical edge. After finishing a book like this, it paints a picture of a lifetime of jealousy, hatred, betrayal and guilt to look forward to in our futures. Books like these make it all to easy to see how your life might turn out just like it, too. Maybe it's just that the authors have done a fantastic job of writing the novel to make it seem super realistic! But when I end the book it leaves me with an unsatisfying feeling of 'huh, will my life be over so quickly too? With such nasty grudges that last 50 years?'. Real cheery thoughts. Perhaps this is why I find myself reading non-fiction a lot more often now!
I'm thinking of starting to write a novel. I have this amazing vision of publishing this dark, philosophical book that everyone can't put down which wins numerous awards and everyone is like 'wow, what a fantastic book – why didn't I think of that first'? And then I think, 'but what would I write it on?'. And that's where I usually stop, because I can't even get started. If anyone's paying attention, this actually sounds a lot like my pursuit for the perfect 'dream' job. I have a vision of a dream job/career. However, because I haven't even realized what it is yet I have come to a stop and haven't actually progressed any further. As great as it is to think about (and even go so far as writing about) finding this elusive dream life, if you're not actually doing anything to bring yourself closer to finding what your passions are (you've only had a limited range of experiences – what else is out there?) you're never going to land 'it'. (Translation: instead of sitting on your bum getting overwhelmed by choice, just go for it; it'll probably work out in the end!) Without being too much of a negative nelly, I'm starting to see a theme here: I'm slowly realizing that these dream jobs, book ideas, business ideas, etc. just don't exist…*)
*Note: I am by no means saying you can't be ecstatically happy in your job. I'm just thinking instead of figuring out your dream job (good luck, ha!) and then going out and looking for it, it's probably better to just throw yourself out there and realize that with every decision you make and experience you have, you'll probably be coming closer to your 'dream' job. Because that's what life is. Just winging it. Right?
Maybe I'm just really indecisive and hate the idea of settling in a single job or career, even if it is the dream one!
So, after returning from a bit of a diversion.. I'm taking my own advice and applying it to writing a novel: I'm going to just start writing a novel and see what plops out. There. That was easy.
I was potentially inspired to write this post by reading A. J. Kessler's article 'showing up'. I love A.J.'s blog and find the articles very interesting and thought provoking. Take a look! http://www.ajkesslerblog.com/showing-up/

"Pain Free - Full Service Ventura Dentist For The Whole Family"
Dental Procedures
- Digital Xrays-Digital radiography (digital x-ray) is the latest technology used to take dental x-rays. This technique uses an electronic sensor (instead of x-ray film) that captures and stores the digital image on a computer. This image can be instantly viewed and enlarged helping the dentist detect problems easier. Digital x-rays reduce radiation 80-90% compared to the already low exposure of traditional dental x-rays.
- Dental Exams-Essential for detection of decay, tumors, cysts, and bone loss.
- Cleanings
- Removal of calculus (tartar): Calculus is hardened plaque that has been left on the tooth for some time and is now firmly attached to the tooth surface. Calculus forms above and below the gum line and can only be removed with special dental instruments.
- Removal of plaque: Plaque is a sticky, almost invisible film that forms on the teeth. It is a growing colony of living bacteria, food debris, and saliva. The bacteria produce toxins (poisons) that inflame the gums. This inflammation is the start of periodontal disease!
- Teeth polishing: Removes stain and plaque that is not otherwise removed during tooth brushing and scaling.
- Composite Fillings-A composite (tooth colored) filling is used to repair a tooth that is affected by decay, cracks, fractures, etc. The decayed or affected portion of the tooth will be removed and then filled with a composite filling.
- Root Canal Therapy-Root canal therapy is needed when the nerve of a tooth is affected by decay or infection. In order to save the tooth, the pulp (the living tissue inside the tooth), nerves, bacteria, and any decay are removed and the resulting space is filled with special, medicated, dental materials, which restore the tooth to its full function.
- Crowns and Bridges-A crown (or cap) is a covering that encases the entire tooth surface restoring it to its original shape and size. A crown protects and strengthens tooth structure that cannot be restored with fillings or other types of restorations. A bridge is 3 or more crowns fused together to replace a missing tooth.

Shiner remembered by memorial trophy
One of the biggest cheers in McGuinness' Pub on Thursday night came when Lilywhite Supporters Club registrar David Curran unveiled the Wayne 'Shiner' Mackin Memorial Cup.
Wayne was recognised as a huge supporter and an active volunteer of Dundalk FC and his untimely death in December was a huge shock to everybody associated with the club.
As a mark of respect, the Lilywhite Supporters Club have unveiled a trophy in his name, which will be on offer to the winners of a fundraising five-a-side which will take place in the summer.
"I'm delighted to say I've got the permission of the committee, and of the Mackin family, to run a football tournament in memory of Wayne," said Curran.
"In my eyes, Wayne was one of Dundalk FC's greatest ever supporters. I was lucky enough to spend many hours in his company and I travelled the length and breadth of this country and all over Europe with him.
"On that great night last October, against Cork City, we cried like two schoolgirls in The Shed when the players delivered us the league title we were waiting on for 19-years and tonight I'm delighted to unveil the Wayne 'Shiner' Mackin Memorial Cup in his memory."
Wayne's father, Roy, and brother Andrew, were in attendance to help launch the trophy.

Egyptians mark first anniversary of protests
Jan. 24 - A multimedia look at life in Egypt during the early hours of the 2011 protest which led to the downfall of Hosni Mubarak and reform across the Arab world.
Nearly a year after Egyptians streamed into Cairo's Tahrir Square to demand democracy, Egyptians recall the early hours of the protest that would result in revolution in Egypt and trigger changes across the Arab world. Inspired by the downfall of Tunisia's president, Egyptians called for an end to President Hosni Mubarak's rule and clashed with police in what were called the Day of Wrath demonstrations on January 25, 2011. The 18-day uprising forced Mubarak from office on February 11 of last year. During the celebrations, the military had promised to govern for a transitional period of no longer than six months. One year later, and with less than a week until the January 25 anniversary, the military still remains in power, with growing public discontent over their handling of the transitional period. The celebratory images of the people and the army seen in the days after the announcement that proved Egyptians victorious, have been replaced with a year of crackdowns on demonstrators pressing for the realization of the demands that more than 800 people died for. The military has called on Egyptians to celebrate on Jan. 25 and avoid trouble.

As 2015 comes to a close, we want to reflect on our amazing accomplishments this year through our Moving Monday campaign that spotlights how we are changing the food landscape throughout Florida.
Our work has impacted farmers, consumers and the community so we want to thank our Friends of FOG members and donors for their support as they have been vital to our success.
We encourage you to join with us as we continue this invaluable work.
This past April was an amazing month for FOG as we received a Food Insecurity Nutrition Incentive (FINI) grant, which supports projects to increase the purchase of fruits and vegetables among low-income consumers participating in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) by providing incentives at the point of purchase.
Our proposal, "Fresh Access Bucks: Increasing Food Access And Florida Farmer Sales At Markets Statewide" will serve 50 markets over a 3-year period located in at least 21 counties throughout Florida!
Fresh Access Bucks (FAB) increases the consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables by enabling farmers markets to accept EBT and allows SNAP users to purchase double-their-food dollars for
fresh, Florida-grown produce at farmers markets.
Eight months into our project, we have already partnered with 28 markets in low-income communities and work with various community organizations, private businesses, and state and local government agencies to implement this program.
Ultimately, this project will benefit more than 18,000 SNAP recipients throughout Florida and will increase farmer revenue by $2.1 million.
Since the program's inception in 2013, more than $200,000 was generated in revenue for Florida grown produce, more than 150 Florida farmers participated and expanded to more than 3,000 new market shoppers.
In order to continue to serve communities throughout Florida with various workshops and programs associated with this grant, we need your support!
Join with us as we continue this program and create a sustainable, local, just, organic food and farm system that is environmentally and ethically sound.

Sweepstakes, deals, contests & more as a way to stoke engagement
Target audience: Nonprofits, cause organizations, foundations, NGOs, social enterprises, businesses, social media marketers, Facebook administrators.
Guest post by Mike Gingerich
You're on Facebook because you want engagement, right? But you don't want engagement purely for its own sake.
You want to be on Facebook because an engaged Facebook community translates into more leads, more donors, more customers & more sales for your nonprofit or business.
Put simply, more engagement means more volunteers, subscribers and donors. Research data reported by Vocus notes that 79% of Facebook fans are more likely to purchase from a brand they have liked. Thus, pursuing more fans and deeper engagement with existing fans is a valuable priority. Continue reading

From: http://www.habitat.org/restores/blog/article006 by: Tianne Haines
Who doesn't want to reduce their carbon footprint? Luckily, there are plenty of ways to go green!
How do you get a handle on what is really green and what isn't when everything seems to be "green"? Hopefully, I can help sort through some of the green clutter.
(Habitat for Humanity International/Toni Manfredi)
Myth no. 1: If I turn everything off, it stops drawing power.
Some things draw power even when they are turned off or not being used for their primary function. Sure, when we're not making popcorn, our microwave is a great clock, but you might be shocked to know how much power these things use. In the energy industry, they call this stand-by, or vampire, power. This sort of stand-by power typically represents 5-10 percent of residential electricity used and is roughly responsible for 1 percent of global CO2 emissions.
We all have these vampires in our homes, and unfortunately they are not the sparkly ones. So how do we get rid of them – especially when our neighborhood werewolf is not around? Unplug!
Some things need to stay on. If you are on pins and needles waiting for the next episode of New Girl to record (and who isn't?), then you need to keep that DVR plugged in, but you can always unplug it when you go on vacation or when your favorite shows are on hiatus.
Personally, I like to have my appliances, or anything else that needs to be plugged in, plugged into power strips. That way I can turn off a bunch at once without crawling around furniture to unplug them. Not only can I ensure the vampires are at bay, but this way they also are safe from power surges and lightning.
Myth no. 2: Older homes are less energy-efficient than new homes.
Once again, false.
Let's take a look at homes built in the last decade. Homes are now averaging bigger square footages, which uses way more energy to maintain. They are also chock-full of energy sucking electronics, so what we can do is make sure we are using every available resource to make our appliances run as efficiently as possible.
Another thing we can do is have an energy audit, then act on recommendations to save money and energy usage. Some energy companies do this as a free service for their customers. According to the Home Performance with Energy Star program, improving energy efficiency can produce a utility bill savings of 20 percent or more.
Myth no. 3: Green cleaning products are substandard and too costly.
The rule of supply and demand has kicked in and what was once very costly and hard to find has become reasonable and even competitively priced. Plus, the ingredients that are used in green cleaners are just as effective.
DIY cleaners, like the ones your Grandma used, can be some of the best around. Check out YouTube for how-to videos or Pinterest for instructions on making eco-friendly cleaners, then run to your local hardware store for the supplies.

Examples Of Comparative Essay Topics
As a student, you are used to the fact professors or teachers assign all sorts of tasks and essays. Compare and contrast essay is one of them. This type of essay requires an unbiased approach to the subject to show your ability to discuss similarities and differences without including your emotions and opinions into it. Throughout this guide, you'll learn how to construct your compare and contrast and impress your teacher.
A compare and contrast essay analyzes two subjects or ideas by comparing or contrasting them. In many cases, an assignment requires both. The point of this essay is to demonstrate a deep understanding of the subject, the ability to research, and it also shows a student's potential to analyze information from different angles.
Instead of listing similarities and differences one after another, compare and contrast essay looks into their relationship and tells the story that connects subjects that seemed incomparable.
Benefits of writing a compare and contrast essay
Contrary to the popular belief, professors and teachers don't assign essays just to keep you busy and destroy your social life. These assignments help you enhance certain skills and allow lecturers to assess them. After all, the main goal of education is to prepare you for adulthood and it is structured to help you adopt certain skills you'll use later on. Below, you can see the important skills you develop with compare and contrast essays:

- Improves higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) – a concept popular in the American education system. The HOTS distinguishes critical thinking skills from low-order learning outcomes. These skills include analyzing, reasoning, synthesizing, application, comprehending, and evaluation. You develop all these skills with compare and contrast essays
- Writing skills – the paper strengthens your writing skills by providing a simple structure that helps you organize information and develop your ideas with greater precision and clarity
- Develops habits of mind – compare and contrast essay helps students develop habits of mind necessary for intelligent behavior and thought. These habits include thinking flexibly, metacognition (thinking about thinking), striving for accuracy, thinking and communicating with precision and clarity, and applying past knowledge to new situations

Compare and contrast essay outline
The beginning is always the hardest part and essays are not the exception. What to do first? Before you begin writing the compare and contrast essay, you need to be familiar with an outline to follow. Not only does the outline keep you on the right track, but it generates ideas that you can use for the essay. How? It shows what and where to mention. Below, you can see the outline for this type of paper:
- Introduction – the introductory paragraph provides a brief intro to the topic, it's a hook that you use to get someone's attention. The sentence can include a fun fact, general information, statistics, quotes, among other things. Then, you transition to a specific topic or ideas you will compare so the reader knows the matter that will be discussed. The introduction ends with a thesis statement that announces the main idea or point you will compare and contrast
- Body paragraphs – the central part of the compare and contrast essay, can be organized in two ways:
- Point-by-point pattern – used to compare subjects or items that are similar. Paragraphs start with a topic sentence and deal with subjects (similarities or differences) and explanations that provide a deeper insight into their relationship
- Block pattern (organization by item) – used to compare situations or items that are entirely different at a first glance. This approach is also useful when multiple criteria are involved. When using block pattern you can divide body paragraphs into categories such as similarities first, then contrasts, a combination etc.
- Conclusion – summary of main points, short analysis of discussion in the essay, demonstrates significance of the subject
Writing tips
The whole idea of writing an essay can be frightening, especially because you have many other projects to work on and it's needless to mention you have a lot of studying to do for your exams. A lot of nervousness comes from lack of information about compare and contrast essay. Students rarely come across accurate tips and tricks and it only makes the writing process longer and more frustrating. Let's put a stop to that with these tips:
- Stick to the assignment – sometimes the essay assignment is just to compare something, or you may be required to discuss differences. In other cases, you need to do both. Regardless of the scenario, you should always stick to the assignment. If your task is to compare something, then focus on similarities rather than spending too much time on differences
- Identify meaningful comparison points – look for connections that truly matter and don't waste your precious time on superficial comparison points. Let's say you need to compare two books; meaningful comparison points are similarities between characters, plot, and other factors. Trivial comparison points would include font selection, cover (unless it's symbolic), and other factors that don't contribute to the meaning or purpose of each of those books
- Choose an organizational strategy – as seen in the outline section the body of compare and contrast essay follows one of two organizational strategies: block or point-by-point structure. Based on the subject, choose the one that works for your paper
- Assume your reader knows nothing – sometimes we fail to mention important information because we assume our lecturer already knows it. Big mistake! Always consider a reader knows nothing about the subject and your job is to inform them. This will help you compile a high-quality paper
- Back it up – keep in mind that compare and contrast essay is just like any other form of academic writing – it requires the use of evidence. Whenever you discuss some important points of comparison or contrast you need to provide evidence that supports it. Otherwise, the argument loses its strength. Of course, this also means you should include sources you used in references section

Keys to Writing Compare & Contrast Essay
Before you start, it is crucial to choose topics that you really know well. Most often, you should find two things that have enough differences and similarities. You can take two pets, cats and dogs, while comparing a food (i.e., banana) with music (i.e., hard rock) basically, makes no sense.
Of course, if you're a part of Arts class where tutor appreciates uncommon parallelism, you may try your luck in your compare and contrast essay. You may talk about a sense of taste and the book of your favorite author. For instance, you may try to explain how it tastes to be Dracula. Or you can highlight how it smells to be Jean-Baptiste Grenouille from famous novel Perfume: The Story of a Murderer. Such creative comparisons are often appreciated and awarded with more than "A." Original and unexpected compare and contrast essay topics serve as your ticket to special universities where Arts are studied. Along with a personal statement written by professional writers, such essay will increase your chances to get enrolled.
Sources to be Used
In any case, writing about things to compare and contrast is an activity which requires your full attention and creativity. But when you have to compare things objectively, you should operate facts. Just like an argumentative essay, your text will need corresponding evidence. Search for the primary and secondary sources on the given topics before you start your first draft. Make sure these sources are no older than 5 years. They should be as relevant as possible. Don't forget to apply only credible sources to reveal your topics. Those are:
- Textbooks
- Books
- Documentaries
- Academic journals
- Scientific magazines
- Newspapers

- Anecdotes and jokes
- Literary quotes
- Quotes of famous people
- Lines from poetry
- Setting scenes
- Scientific facts
- Questions and rhetorical questions
- Metaphors and similes
- Thesis statements
We think it is better to write a thesis statement in the last sentence of the argumentative essay's introduction to conclude.
- Brainstorm all the time. The best way to decide on two good compare and contrast topics to analyze is to brainstorm and write down possible versions on a blank paper. Once you choose the subjects, you have to organize your thoughts. Prepare a table where you will mention both similarities and differences between the two subjects.
- Get professional help and examples. Find online educational services which help to choose some good sources on the given topic. Those can be movies, books, articles, etc. It is the last pre-writing stage which is known as a literature review.
