Difference between revisions of "Chincoteague"
Revision as of 13:43, 19 June 2008
Chincoteague is a city in Virginia.
Get in
To get to Chincoteague Island, take 64 east from Richmond until you reach Norfolk. From there, take 13 North. You will need to pay a $12 bridge toll to cross the Chesapeake Bay-Bridge Tunnel. Once on the other side, continue up the Eastern Shore for about an hour and a half. In Oak Hall, there is a Food Lion and Sonic. Turn right onto Rt. 175. Continue following 175 past the NASA base and across the bridges. There is a stoplight after the last bridge--Welcome to Chincoteague Island! Relax, you're on Island Time.
Get around
There are many ways to get around Chincoteague. During the summer months, the roads can get crowded. Bicycles are a great solution (and they get you into the beach for FREE!) Consider renting from the Bike Depot on Maddox Blvd or one of the other rental shops. They have reasonable rates ($3/hour, $14/day).
There is also an Island trolley service during the summer. Rides are only a quarter, and many hotels give out tokens for free rides. It's a great way to get to the carnival, since parking there is limited.
The island, in its entirety. Take a cruise around the island with a local captain.
Wild Pony Auction, day after the swim.
2nd Saturday celebration. Downtown Chincoteague, 2nd Saturday of every month. Local artists and shop owners celebrate the arts and take it to the sidewalks.
Go to the beach. There is no commercialization over there--not even a Coke machine--so be sure to bring plenty of water and snacks. It is a wonderful beach, though you'll have to pay to get on Assateague Island, where the beach and wildlife refuge are located. Be sure to stop at the Herbert H. Bateman Educational and Administrative Center on Assateague--they have activities and exhibits for nature lovers of all ages!
Go to the Fireman's Carnival. It's a small-town festival complete with rides, games, bingo, and delicious oyster and clam fritters. All the rides and stands are run by the Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company. Many members of the fire company are World-Famous Salt Water Cowboys.
Refuge Golf on Maddox Blvd. provides lots of family entertainment. You can play a round of Putt-Putt, race for the finish in go-karts, climb the rock wall, get soaked with bumper boats, and even do a little old-school air hockey or pool inside the arcade.
Riding bikes on the Wildlife Refuge is an unforgettable experience--I highly recommend it. The 3-mile wildlife loop is an easy, flat ride, and the short hike to the Assateague Lighthouse is a lot of fun! For families with kids or those unsure of riding with traffic, rent from the Bike Depot. They're close to all the paths and the beach too!
Whatever you do, if it's outside, bring bug spray. The mosquitoes are blood-thirsty!
Sun Screen. Bug Spray. A good beach book.
A t-shirt from the Purple Pony. It's locally owned and has a great selection of quality t-shirts, printed right there at the store.
An authentic Chincoteague Pony. There are several options for this. Most people looking to buy a pony come for pony penning week (Last Weds. in July.) and buy one at the Wild Pony Auction. For those that can't make it that week, or are interested in a more relaxed buying experience, the Chincoteague Pony Farm is a great alternative. Don Leonard has been raising ponies for decades, and now with the help of his sons and grandchildren, he is making a name for the small farm he's owned since the 60's.
Bill's Seafood is one of the best. It's casual enough to eat in shorts and a t-shirt, but fancy enough to go out for a family celebration. Their broiled crabcakes are the best! Open 365 days a year, 5am-10pm.
Sea Star Cafe is my personal favorite. They serve sandwiches, salads, and soups for lunch. The sandwiches are HUGE but delicious, with gourmet meats and some hand-made dressings that will make your mouth water. The owners make everything to order. It's so fresh and healthy, you'll be coming back for more the very next day. Try the Virginian or the Northerner! They have a lot of vegetarian and vegan options too, which is rare on the island.
The Village is a Chincoteague classic. Open 5pm-close for dinner. Make reservations! The seafood platter is enough to feed two, or maybe three, but is a GREAT sampling of local seafood. Crab Soup is delicious, too. Fresh seafood, local waitresses, and a seperate bar area make The Village a must-eat stop on Chincoteague.
Famous Pizza and Subs is a great little pizza joint. They deliver, too--great when you don't feel like going out or having a fancy dinner. Inexpensive, too.
Refuge Inn on Maddox Blvd. is the #1 place on Chincoteague. The little hotel has been around since the 70's, but you wouldn't know it from the look of the rooms! Apparently everything has been newly renovated. Local, knowledgeable, friendly staff make you feel like you're on a cruise ship. The rooms are SPOTLESS and very spacious for the price. We looked at rooms at the Comfort and the Hampton, but neither of the compared to our rooms at the Refuge. The indoor/outdoor pool is great (and heated in the winter!) while the observation deck above the 2nd floor is a wonderful place to sit at night and stargaze. They have ponies right on-site from the Chincoteague Pony Farm and you can pet and feed the horses. In the spring and summer there are young colts and fillies running around inside the pen. Kids love being able to walk on the deck or patio and see baby ponies. They have a great gift shop too and a bike place right across the parking lot (with an outdoor air pump for everyone to use--great if you bring your own bikes.) Breakfast at the Refuge was great, although a little crowded. We had waffles, pancakes, and even french toast!
Miss Mollys Inn, 4141 Main Street, 757-336-6686 or 800-221-5620, [1]. At this bed and breakfast you will find a warm and inviting parlor that is just the place to curl up with a good book, chat, play board games or just sit by the fire. Famous author Marguerite Henry stayed here while she wrote Misty of Chincoteague.

Bondi Beach Identified As Potential ISIS Target
Image: 123rf
Islamic State has named major Sydney and Melbourne crowd hotspots as potential targets in a new editorial in the terrorist organisations magazine 'Among The Believers Are Men'.
The magazine is encouraging lone wolves who live on Australian soil to attack and kill people in public acts of terror.
Locations that have been encouraged to be targets include Sydney's Bondi Beach, the SCG and the Opera House, as well as Melbourne's MCG and the streets of Brunswick.
The piece reads, "Kill them on the streets of Brunswick, Broadmeadows, Bankstown, and Bondi. Kill them at the MCG, the SCG, the Opera House, and even in their backyards."
"Stab them, shoot them, poison them, and run them down with your vehicles."
"Kill them wherever you find them until the hollowness of their arrogance is filled with terror and they find themselves on their knees with their backs broken under the weight of regret for having waged a war against the believers, and by Allah's will, and then through your sacrifices, this Ummah [community of Muslims] will be victorious."
More as it comes.
If you notice anything suspicious, contact the National Security Hotline on 1800 123 400.

rawdesignr necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 44 diseños de 12 diseñadores freelance.
Illinois Womens Bar Foundation
The Women's Bar Foundation was established in 1966 for the purpose of providing "scholarships, awards or other financial aid for the study of law in accredited law schools in the State of Illinois to deserving and qualified women." The Foundation was incorporated in 1968 as an Illinois not-for-profit corporation and has been granted exemption from Federal income taxes under section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The funds for Foundation scholarships are raised through individual donations, endowments, bequests, and Foundation events. Through the years, scholarships have been provided by donations from former scholarship winners and by donations from other supporters. The foundation honors distinguished members and donors by awarding scholarships in their names. To ensure the viability of the Foundation, supporters are encouraged to consider including the Women's Bar Foundation in their estate plans.
Our targeted audience is the law community in the US and future scholarship winners. These are all professionals and law students.
I have a attached a PDF of the requirements. We are looking for creative designs that meet a majority of the requirements.
Here is our vision:
- A majority of the design should be within an oval. The border of the logo may have an additional border, but it depends on the design.
- Colors: Black, Gold
- Images should include a white scroll, professional woman and a scales of justice
- It should say "Womens Bar Foundation of Illinois" on the outside of the border or within the double pane border (whatever looks better)
- The woman should NOT be holding a scales of justice. There are a bunch out
Here is the current website: http://www.illinoiswbf.org/ This logo will most likely replace the one at the top left. This should give you an idea of what colors to use.

rethinkretreats necessitava di un nuovo design di logo e ha lanciato un contest su 99designs.
È stato scelto un vincitore tra 278 design presentati da 60 designer.
Rethink Retreats
Rethink Retreats is a new company which runs high end week long holistic career and stress management retreats for the busy professional in their late 30s to mid 40s.
The first retreat will run October 2011 in a chateau in the Dordogne, France. It's a luxurious venue and will allow us to help our clients relax and refocus on an aspect of their lives. Over the week, they will experience daily yoga and meditation, three life coaching or hypnotherapy sessions, a massage and a session of acupuncture as well as specialist work such as a CV review by a head-hunter.
They will arrive stressed and leave calm and with a plan.
The retreats are fairly expensive, so this is a sizeable investment for the client. But as well as the training offered, they get 7 days accommodation and three meals a day (catered by a Swedish company that specialises in healthy, calming food which is 80% vegetarian). And of course continual access to the pool and grounds of the chateau and contact time with the team of stress management professionals (there's a great staff to client ratio), as well as a supportive network of likeminded individuals.
Most importantly they are buying a space think – to rethink.
And it's good fun, fairly quirky and although full of yoga, there's lots of French wine, giggling and cake (who wouldn't feel better about their life, with all that going on?)
Clients are mostly lawyers, accountants and bankers who travel regularly and are used to excellent service. They'll be high earners who will not view this retreat as expensive, and this will be one of several holidays they take this year. Many of them will have worked for a long time to get to the top of their careers and now can't quite remember why – some of them will be going through the life questioning brought on by divorce. They will all be demanding and expect quality, amazing service and will be vocal if they do not receive it.
Women – may well have gone on other yoga retreats before. But they will not have done yoga and career management work at the same time. In theory they will be an easier sell – pictures of the beautiful environment and a list of the luxurious treatments they will receive as well as reviews of the yoga.
Men – will probably be resistant to the yoga, but interested in trying it (but unlikely to admit it, possibly even to themselves). Likewise to the acupuncture (unless they wish to give up smoking or have an exercise injury). They will have more interest in the 'safer' areas of career and life coaching, but the real draw to them will be a group of likeminded individuals and the time and space to review their lives.
I want to communicate - luxury, confidence, friendliness, professionalism with a touch of the quirky.
I need a logo for business and postcards, discrete use on polo shirts for the practitioners, and of course for the website.
The brand needs to be clean, crisp and modern, nothing even slightly new age about it.
I've been leaning towards blue and silver as corporate colours, with lots of white space to keep things feeling calm and spacious.
I think my hardest sell will be to men, as women understand the way retreats work and exactly what they're likely to get. Men will need to know it's not all fluffy yoga, but something substantial. So I am considering having different marketing for each gender - blue for men, silver for women, but also keep the two colours together for more combined work when needed.
Type-wise I'm thinking a discrete modern serif, as for many people it denotes quality. And my clients are fairly stuffy, but see themselves as modern. Though please do try a clean sanserif, if it suits the crisp design.
The company literature uses lots of alliteration – Relax, Review, Rethink Retreats is the main tag line – other words I'm working in; recuperate, regenerate, renovate, reiterate, resource, redirect (and my personal favourite – remunerate).
Small note - please don't use two linked R's in the logo - I am very much after a logo that emphasises a playful motivated change. The company is about small changes that lead to big effects - rippling out from the retreat week. Though obviously nothing too cliched or new age.
Main company tag line "relax, review, rethink retreats"
The second tag line I am using is "Rethink Retreats - a space to think"

Finaly the heat up of the Presidential Election has settled down and Barack Obama was elected the next president of the united states. First Black man to be president in the US history! Living in Japan, i think this means alot to us too. I'm very excited and psyched to see what he will do in his term. I'm sure there may be people that dont agree with me but as Sen, McCain said i hope everyone can move beyond their differences and work together to get USA moving again! kay now to get to my point. I want to discuss about the Elections in Japan and all around the world. When I was in the states 4 years ago i found that students there were eager to participate in the election. even students that couldnt vote were working hard to spread the word to vote. Even more younger people voted this year and many for the first time. alot of my friends in the states volunteered for political parties and i was very impressed how they showed so much consern for their country. I dont know how it is around the world but i know that here in Japan the voting rate is about 50% or so and i feel like it gets lower every year. some young people are trying hard to get everyone to vote but i dont think its enough to get people to want to vote. how is it in your country?? i cant think of a way to get young japanese people to have a little more concern on their country and more interested to vote. i think we need a serious change in Japan soon!!!!_________________Yumi a.k.a.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 On The Way?
14 Mar 2010 - Final Fantasy 13 - Comments (2)
Final Fantasy XIII creators Yoshinori Kitase and Motomu Toriyama have stated that they'd be very interested in creating a direct sequel to Final Fantasy XIII, though they're waiting to see how well Final Fantasy XIII sells in the West.
"In the past three years we worked both on the world and on the various systems," says Kitase. "Creating these systems isn't very glamorous and can frankly be a bit boring. If we could do a XIII-2, we could direct all our attention to the story and refine what we have already built."
"We do not know if there will be a XV. This depends a lot on the success of XIII. Also, it is difficult to pinpoint elements that are typical Final Fantasy. They are mostly invisible: part of the DNA of the game, that everyone recognizes as typical Final Fantasy. But ifthere is a XV, I hope the way we wrote our characters carries over. We strived to create believable people of flesh and blood. They are not robots. And they are not super heroes. I hope this humanity is something we will see again."

Final Fantasy XIII Released In Japan

It's been three years since it's initial reveal, and probably much longer in development, but Final Fantasy XIII has, at long last, been released in Japan.
The wait begins now for the rest of the world, as March 09th, 2010 is closer than any other FF title has been released out of Japan, but still seems so far away.

Two New Final Fantasy XIV Classes Revealed
12 Nov 2009 - Final Fantasy 14 - Comments (1)
The official Final Fantasy XIV website has been updated again and this time it reveals two new character classes, the Gladiator and Pugilist.
Gladiators are expert swordsmen, known for their battle prowess with blades of all designs; short and long, single and double-edged, straight and curved. They favor combat at close range, where they masterfully execute a deadly array of hacks and slashes. The skill and pride of a gladiator instill such a confidence that they are said to never shun a fight.
Pugilists are renowned for being rugged combatants tempered by ceaseless training and rigorous self-discipline. Thought formidable even when bare-fisted through the use of hand-to-hand weaponry their destructive capabilities are compounded with the strength of metal, leather and bone. They strive to close the distance between their opponents and themselves, as they outmatch nearly any adversary in close-quarters combat. Some have become so adept at this maneuvering that they are able to negate the reach of even the longest blade or spear.

Art & Film
Nicola Kearton
Academy Editions, 1996 - Performing Arts - 92 pages
Since its inception in 1896, film has interacted continually with movements in art and criticism. Artists have been inspired by the fascination of the moving image and film makers have found their vision through the medium of painting. In today's multimedia age, film is seen as the ultimate visual art. This special issue published to tie in with the centenary of the invention of film presents an analysis of the subtle links between art and film, artist and filmmaker. It considers film as an inseperable element of contemporary art practice in the 1990s, and includes essays on the work of Peter Greenaway, performance artist Annie Griffin, Alain Fleischer, Beth B., and extracts from an interview with the late Derek Jarman.

Help for Congregations
Congregational Surveys — Discover Your Strengths!
Research Services offers two options for congregational surveys. Both are based on the U.S. Congregational Life Survey.
Option 1
The first is a basic four-page survey that helps you learn about your worshipers (who they are, how they're involved in the congregation, and what they value there) and compare the answers of your worshipers to those of worshipers in a national random sample of congregations that have already participated in this survey. By making this comparison, you can identify your congregation's strengths and find ways to build on those strengths. Learn more about the U.S. Congregational Life Survey and how your congregation can take part on the U.S. Congregations Web site. After taking the survey, your congregation will receive two customized color reports, videos and leader guides to help you understand and use each report and two books (A Field Guide to U.S. Congregations and Beyond the Ordinary: Ten Strengths of U.S. Congregations) that describe the results of the national random sample survey and will help you see your congregation in the context of all congregations across the United States.
Option 2
The second option is to add an insert sheet to the basic four-page U.S. Congregational Life Survey. The optional page provides an opportunity for worshipers to indicate interest in 24 typical study topics, express their satisfaction with 20 church activities or programs that you can specify and describe their priorities for the pastor. If you would like to review a copy of the insert sheet, please contact us and request a copy. Note that use of this additional page in the U.S. Congregational Life Survey increases the cost above that described on the U.S. Congregations Web site by $1 per survey ordered.
In either case, Research Services will provide all the materials you need to give the survey in your congregation, analyze your worshipers' answers and provide a comprehensive summary.
To learn more about findings from the U.S. Congregational Life Survey, read the blog Beyond the Ordinary: Insights into U.S. Congregational Life.
Why take this survey?
Surveys can give your congregation: a picture of "who you are" (including age and marital status of worshipers, average length of church attendance, etc.), information about the strengths and priorities of church programs and tools for strategic planning. Surveys are particularly helpful when considering new programs or missions, when preparing to call a new pastor and when renewing or re-evaluating your strategic plan.

Beyond the Ordinary
Ten Strengths of U.S. Congregations
by Cynthia Woolever and Deborah Bruce
"... a wonderful resource that every congregation should add to its tool kit." --J. Brent Bill, executive vice president, Indianapolis Center for Congregations, Inc. Results from the U.S. Congregational Life Survey, the largest project of its type ever conducted in the United States, have prompted this second book from Westminster John Knox Press authors/researchers Cynthia Woolever and Deborah Bruce.
"This was a quick, painless way to get a lot of information — especially to see our strengths. It also helped us pinpoint some areas where we want to grow stronger."
"Thank you for the U.S. Congregational Life Survey results! They are exciting!"
"We are using it to evaluate, plan, and shape some of our future thinking about our church and the various needs of our congregation. The study is a great contribution to the health of churches."
"You can sit around and imagine how your congregation is, but then when you see stuff like this, it is like holding up a mirror to yourself. You see what you haven't been able to put a finger on."
"This church had never had a stewardship program. We decided we were going to do that ... because we had no idea we were so far behind what other congregations and other individuals gave within the church. So by taking the survey, we were able to honestly look at ourselves and say there is a place here where we really need to grow."

|Michigan is probably behind Ohio in the hunt too
I've already seen a ton of Drake's quotes expressing his great respect for urban and coombs and that a visit will be scheduled there very soon. I have almost read nothing in that respect concerning a visit to Michigan. Which has me very concerned because lately there have been a lot more recruits from Michigan other than Damon Webb and Drake Harris expressing great interest for Ohio. For example Cass tech RB Mike Webber already has OSU as his leader. MSU may be falling on their faces right now but Ohio is sweeping into Michigan very hard now.

|Do you think
Do you think Alabama take him back after the way he left them? I mean I guess it would be like us taking Dawson back sans the retarted tattoo.
|12/01/2012 - 5:55pm
|Ritch is a nice guy
But I think if Bama loses we may have to see them again in the Capital One Bowl. Not saying we would lose again but I'd much rather play another team. Although, I wonder how Gardener would fair in a rematch?

|Wish I could start my own thread on our underdogs
Recently, I went through some of our less popular commits (Hurst, Stribling, Hill, Dukes,and York) and I am astonished by our ability to notice and lock down talent. I recommend the mgo-community go and check out some of those players senoir highlights. Especially Hurst, his film is unreal and I am VERY VERY glad we snapped him up.

|Im sure Channing is gonna get
Im sure Channing is gonna get his third star but the question is if he is worthy of being a four star. I honestly don't care because the coaches are sold on him, but I know he as a player would appreciate that accolade. Also what was the official update on his injury?
|12/01/2012 - 12:41pm
|I really wish spell check was
I really wish spell check was built into this text boxes my bad lol
|12/01/2012 - 12:36pm
As much as I will miss the Wolverines storming to the field, watching them storm out on the court has been just as satisfying so far.
|12/01/2012 - 11:31am
Channing is great at positioning himself for impact plays. Underthrown but he is a playmaker.
|12/01/2012 - 11:12am
|No he isnt a legacy player
No he isnt a legacy player but I feel he falls into that genre because his family ties to the NFL. A lot of coaches sons have done well anyways though. I though Kugler had a brother that played college ball though, which I think makes you a legacy player in a way.
I guess legacy may not be the right word but those strong family ties go along way in preparing a player.

|Who was discussed
I missed the broadcast but who was actually discussed that caused this major bias on the *buckeye side of things. I am on Wolverinenation and Tom often has to fend off of the stupidity of buckeye nation.

|This kid really softens the blow
Of loosing Gareon Conely. Another phenomenal athlete picked up by the coaches. I expect to see him all over the field today.
|12/01/2012 - 9:10am
|I love that about our Michigan teams
Whether it is basketball and now football, there are quite a few legacy players. We have seen how being a legacy kid has paid off for player like Hardaway and GRIII, really hoping this logic transfers to football.

This makes a ton of since. As a Falcons fan I don't like giving Mora too much credit, but if UCLA wins it would make a ton of sense. Oregon really got F***** this year lol
|11/30/2012 - 9:57pm
|I am also new to MGoblog
But I am not new to recruiting and I think this is completely normal for any recruiting cycle. Yes, it sucks to have our players decommit but compared to other universities, who allow visits, our recruitment at Michigan has much less drama than other places like USC or most SEC schools. At schools who allow visits, their commits go on every official visit and give another school a shot at flipping them. My friends at UGA sit on the edge of their seats literally EVERY week not knowing whether a kid got "blown away" by a visit they took. So I say relax because we are Michigan "For God's sake".

New Conn. company sees gold in brown river water
STONINGTON -- Two weeks ago, Robert Wood walked to one of four large plastic tanks, opened a valve and drew a cup of clear water.
Just moments before, the brackish water, which came directly from the adjacent Pawcatuck River, had a brownish tint and was filled with particles.
He then faced a small group of people touring his two-month-old facility, which is in 6,000 square feet of formerly vacant mill space on Mechanic Street.
"For the second week in a row I will perform a death-defying feat as I drink this water. Cheers," joked Wood as he gulped it down. "Now that's tasty water."
That's not how Pawcatuck River water is usually described.
Despite the joke, the president of AirWell H20 is serious about the prospects for his new Pawcatuck company, which has started with 16 employees.
Wood said he plans to bring as many as 150 jobs here over the next year and eventually as many as 500, thanks to a compact ozone-based water purification system developed by his company. He said the system has numerous commercial and humanitarian applications.
"We're looking in places no one else is looking. We're on the leading edge of what can be done," said Wood, who speaks about his company with the enthusiasm of a promoter, something he once did in the music business.
Wood, a Groton native, recently moved back to southeastern Connecticut from California where he said he was involved in the music, Internet and farming industries before finding his passion in clean water.
He said his company's innovations can inexpensively provide clean drinking water to disaster sites, deployed military units and, most of all, impoverished Third World villages that do not have access to clean water.
Wood said he is working with his first customers, Caribbean resorts that are looking to clean and reuse water.
This spring the company is slated to begin testing its technology in the fracking industry, a method used to extract oil and gas from rock that can contaminate groundwater.
Meanwhile, initial testing shows the high oxygen content of the water could help crops grow faster and in bottled water form could be used to help athletes recover quicker.
The latter idea has resulted in a bottled water product called Oxygenade, which the company plans to begin bottling in Norwich within six months. Wood said the spin-off company has backers such as former Boston Red Sox player Kevin Millar and former NFL quarterback John David Booty.
The company has also developed a way to "mine" large amounts of water from humidity at a cost of 11 cents per gallon. This is done in shipping containers. "And we designed everything to work off the grid with wind and solar power," Wood said.
Wood, who said he is working with the government of the African nation of Burundi about using the company's solar-powered well drilling technology to provide drinking water for people who don't have it, rattled off statistic after statistic about the extent of the problem.
He said many people spend much of their day just trying to find clean water.
"We're attempting to break that cycle of misery," he said.
While the humanitarian effort is what drives him, to do that work Wood's privately funded company has to make money on other initiatives.
And that evolves around the technology that uses a plasma field to split oxygen molecules, according to Greg Scheurer, the company's vice president of engineering. He said the split oxygen kills almost all biological material in the water and renders nonliving material such as heavy metals inert. The final product also has a higher oxygen content than regular water.
Because of the high oxygen content of the end product, the company has a small greenhouse on site where it is testing the effect of the water on plant growth. So far it appears lettuce plants grow faster than with regular water. The goal is to reduce growing time of the lettuce so there can be an additional growing season for farmers each year.
Wood, who graduated from Fitch High School, said AirwellH20 has plans to not only take over 54,000 square feet of additional space in the mill at 99 Mechanic St. but eventually hopes to lure companies it does business with to town.
"We want to make this a hot spot," he said.
He and Scheurer said the company will give preference for jobs to disabled veterans who served in Iraq and Afghanistan and is working with the state labor department on that initiative.
Airwell H20 is also the kind of company that First Selectman Ed Haberek said he has been trying to lure to town - an innovative, clean, high-tech business that offers the promise of well-paying jobs.
Haberek, who met Wood at a technology forum, has been working to have him locate his company here for the past two years. Wood commended Haberek for his support.
"This is the perfect type of company for the town. They're so diversified," Haberek said.

PEORIA — Numerous dog breeds, from full grown Labrador retrievers to 8-week-old pugs, filled the back warehouse of the Tractor Supply Co. on Southwest Washington Street on Sunday morning as the Low Cost Pet Wellness Clinic made its monthly stop.
On the first Sunday of each month, about eight volunteers from all over Illinois come to the warehouse and offer their veterinary skills.
"It's a one-stop shop," said Jody Guske, executive director of the Just Animals Shelter in Mazon. An offshoot of Guske's shelter, the clinic ensures both dogs and cats can get a vaccine exam, rabies vaccines, distemper vaccines, tracking microchips, deworming medication and other medicines all while being examined by one of the clinic's two veterinarian volunteers. Everything they do costs somewhere between $10 and $25. "We keep it cheap so we can help people take care of their animals."
It was nothing but dogs Sunday morning, so the owners filled out a form stating what shots their dogs already had received, what they may need and what ailments they may be suffering. That form would then be handed to volunteers who got the needed shots and medication ready for the dog. Then the dog would be taken over to a veterinarian.
"It's fast-paced, non-stop crazy," Guske said.
"It's such a good service to the people and their dogs, it's so convenient and inexpensive," David Michels of Pekin said. Michels was there with his wife, Anita, and the 8-week-old pug they had just adopted the other day.
While Guske buzzed around the warehouse doing everything from handing out dog tags, handling money and petting every dog she could as a constant stream of dogs came to the clinic, the operation ran smoothly thanks to numerous other volunteers, including Dr. Robin Hadley, a veterinarian from Champaign.
"It's very fulfilling," Hadley said. She would examine a dog for roughly five to six minutes while administering shots and talking to the owners. "It may be the only time you'll see some of these dogs at a vet, so it's great to be a part of. Plus, it's fast. It keeps things fun."
All the volunteers said Sunday's clinic was rather busy, which was evident from the 24 dogs they examined in about 45 minutes. Guske estimated that they would see 175 to 200 dogs on Sunday alone. Considering that they visit Peoria once a month, and that the whole operation visits at least 20 different counties in Illinois a year, they are helping a lot of dogs.
"It's craziness, but I love doing this," Guske said.
As Guske handed each owner pills, tags or change as the dog owners left, she asked them to tell their friends about their clinic. "Jody is a good friend of mine, I tell everyone I know about what she and these amazingly kind people are doing," Michels said. "They deserve all the attention they can get."

Hello! I have twin boys, born at 32 weeks (due to IUGR). After 6 weeks in the NICU, we just brought them home last week. During their NICU stay, I tried to breast feed each twin at least once a day. Both would latch and showed signs of continuous improvement, although my larger twin always would stay on longer with a stronger suck. The rest of their feedings they were fed via bottle (after they graduated from the tube). Now that we've been home for about 10 days, I am working so hard to transition both to mostly breast from mostly bottle (they need at least 2 bottles of fortified breast milk a day per my pediatrician). My larger twin is a champ - he will breastfeed for 30 min+... we rented a scale so I know he takes between 70-100 mL's at each feeding. My smaller twin, however, is struggling. My suspicion is that he has nipple confusion after being fed bottles for so long (he takes feedings from the bottle just fine). He will latch on fine, suck about 5-10 times, and then either push off, or purse his lips, as if he was sucking a bottle. After trying for about 10 minutes, he becomes very fussy and frustrated. Occasionally (maybe once a day), he will figure it out and continue sucking for about 10 minutes, but (because I've weighed him) the most he's taken via breast is 25 mL's. So I know he CAN do it.
Yesterday, I tried blocking off 6 hours to only offer the breast. It was incredibly frustrating for us both. He hardly stayed on for longer than 5 minutes any time. After 6 hours, my husband gave him a bottle. I am so nervous to deprive him of food since he is a preemie (5.5 lbs) although he has continues to gain weight every day. Should I stick with this "bootcamp" (not offer bottles & paci's) for a chunk of time every day, or continue to do it for 24 hours, like I've read elsewhere? (I'm so nervous!) Also, my main question, how long does it generally take for a baby to typically transition from bottle to breast after depriving the bottle for a chunk of time? I know all babies are different, but I'm just wondering how long it will generally take - a couple days? A few weeks? (This answer may help me mentally to get through it). I am so determined to get my smaller baby boy to breast, like his brother. I can tell his big brother loves it and is so relaxed during our breastfeeding sessions. I want the sam for him! Also, I can't deal with these night feedings: breastfeeding one baby, then trying to breast feed the other, bottle feed him, THEN pump in the middle of the night. That process takes 2.5 hours and is unsustainable. Also, just to note, I have plenty of milk.. I pump about 1.2 Liters each day. Also, I tried using a nipple shield in the hospital and he never latched at all using it - he latches much better on my bare nipple. Thanks for any advice!!!

Thor Redirects Oregon-based Komfort Division
April 20, 2010 by Bob Ashley · 2 Comments
Peter Kinden, former general manager of Stiers RV, Bakersfield, Calif., has been named vice president of sales for Komfort Corp., a towable RV manufacturer based in Clackamas, Ore. In his new position, Kinden will manage all sales, marketing and product development for the Thor Industries Inc. division, according to a letter sent early this week (April 19) to Komfort's 90 dealers by Thor Group President Ron Fenech.
As part of the transition, former Komfort President John Attilla remains with the company, but he's stepping down from the top job. Komfort operations are now the direct responsibility of Don Clark, president of Thor's Dutchmen Manufacturing Inc. subsidiary in Goshen, Ind.
"I would like to be open about what we see at Komfort," Fenech wrote in the dealer letter. "Over the past few years, Komfort has lost its way. We have not been providing our dealers with the competitive products nor the responsive service that will allow us to be the dominant RV brand in the West. And that is going to change.
"The Komfort team has the basics in place to move quickly in getting us going in the right direction," added Fenech, "and these changes are just the beginning. We at Thor are very committed to the Komfort brand and will be investing to return Komfort to the No. 1 name in the Western states, as it has been in the past."
Although Clark will not have a Komfort title, Fenech told RVBUSINESS.com that "when appropriate" a new Komfort leader will be appointed who "will continue to report to Don Clark."
The move comes as a number of companies appear to be positioning for West Coast market share in anticipation of the post-recession era, even though the current state of the marketplace out West continues to be "tough," said Fenech. "The Northwest is strong, but the Southwest still has its challenges," he said. "All in all, everything is getting better out West."
Dutchmen has a manufacturing facility in Burley, Idaho, where the company builds entry-level, wood-and-aluminum travel trailers, while Komfort is located near Portland, Ore. Together, says Fenech, the two plants are well positioned to service the West. "Don understands the western market and will bring a lot of good direction to Komfort," he added. "And there are efficiencies to be gained between Komfort and Dutchmen, and that will be good for both Dutchmen and Komfort dealers."

David Rosenfelt and his wife embark on a cross-country trip with 3 RVs, 11 volunteers and 25 rescue dogs.
Written by Kim Curtis and Originally Published in The Big Story on July 22, 2013
"Dogtripping: 25 Rescues, 11 Volunteers, and 3 RVs on Our Canine Cross-Country Adventure" (St. Martin's Press), by David Rosenfelt
When was the last time you laughed out loud? When is the last time you cried tears of genuine sadness? When was the last time you did both while reading a 260-page memoir?
David Rosenfelt, who is best known for a series of mystery novels, has written a book-length love letter to his canine companions through the years. "Dogtripping" is a delightful romp through his adventures — and misadventures — running a dog rescue along with his wife, Debbie, out of their Southern California home and their cross-country move.
As a dog lover, it's hard to know whether his stories will resonate with those less fond of his furry four-legged friends, but because Rosenfelt very well could be the funniest American author alive today, it's certainly worth a try.
He's charming, likable, self-deprecating, self-aware and utterly hysterical. Be careful where you read this one because you could invoke serious stares from strangers who may think you've lost your mind.
On the cleanliness of the hotel rooms he wants to reserve with 25 — mostly big — dogs during their road trip from California to Maine: "I hadn't done the math, but I was pretty sure that we would be traveling with well over a ton of dog, so the cleaning deposit would probably be the GDP of a third-world country."
On the bedroom he shares with his wife and a half-dozen dogs: "The noises ... are unbelievable. Between the snoring, and the scratching, the collars jiggling, and all the other weird noises, it sounds like a jungle in Zaire."
On the dogs, most of whom are old: "They sleep the majority of the day. I've often said that the inside of our house seems like a Civil War battlefield when the fighting was over ... eerily quiet, with bodies lying everywhere."
If it's been too long since you enjoyed a funny, sweet, romantic tale, read this book.

Outside cash cranking; examining 'choice' in The Springs; the 'off the rails' Guv race
ENOUGH ALREADY: About $750,000 of that is spent by outside groups in Colorado every day this election season, where a tight race in a newly important swing state has drawn considerable interest, The Washington Post reports, in following up our story from Sunday. No matter their allegiances, voters here appear to have had enough.
MORE ON CHOICE: Ken Buck's views on homosexuality being a choice are closer to the mainstream in Colorado Springs, The Gazette reports. Focus on the Family social policy analyst, said Monday, "Alcohol affects your whole body, and so does sexual behavior. The highly addictive (aspect of both) is an apt comparison."
MINOR PARTY INCONVENIENCE: "It probably will happen," Republican state party chairman Dick Wadhams told the AP when asked about gubernatorial nominee Dan Maes collecting less than 10 percent of the vote. "Voters are asking, 'Why would I waste my vote on Maes? '"
"The governor's race went off the rails," Wadhams to Fox News.

Barcelona attacker Andres Iniesta has revealed that Sergio Ramos is his favourite Real Madrid player, while reserving praise for Malaga attacker Isco.
The Blaugrana star has played alongside the Blancos defender in the Spain national side for years, though the two Roja icons remain bitter rivals in La Liga.
Barca president Sandro Rosell recently claimed there is a Madrid player which he would like to sign and when asked who he rates highly, Iniesta was more specific with his praise by singling out Ramos.
"I've always liked Sergio Ramos," he told Catalunya Radio. "He always seems like an amazing player. And I like to look at the upcoming players, such as Isco."
Iniesta added he misses working with Pep Guardiola, who left Camp Nou as head coach last summer, and admitted it is difficult working with current boss Tito Vilanova being absent due to his recovery from cancer treatment.
"I do miss Guardiola because I like working with people who have done great things and he did," the Ballon d'Or nominee said.
"It becomes more complicated without Vilanova, but we are all working hard. I hope everything goes well."
The 28-year-old has helped Barca comfortably top La Liga as of mid-February, and Iniesta has reiterated his desire to remain at Camp Nou for the entirety of his professional career.
"I want to improve every year," he added. "To maintain our level and compete with the others [at Barca], I have to be the best.
"My desire has always been to finish my career at the club. I feel very good here. I've been here for 12 years and I want to retire here, but my performance will decide if that happens.
"When two parties want the same thing, it should not be a problem."

Judgment day: Bonds, Clemens, Sosa, Piazza to find out Hall of Fame fates Tuesday
- Image 1 of 2
- Image 2 of 2
NEW YORK – There's a chance the podium under the chandeliers in the gold-and-ivory-colored Vanderbilt Room of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel will go unused Thursday.
With the cloud of steroids shrouding the candidacies of Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens and others, baseball writers may fail for the only the second time in more than four decades to elect anyone to the Hall of Fame, rendering a news conference unnecessary.
About 600 people are eligible to vote in the BBWAA election, all members of the organization for 10 consecutive years at any point. Results will be announced at 2 p.m. EST Wednesday, with the focus on first-time eligibles that include Bonds, Clemens, Sammy Sosa and Mike Piazza.
Since 1965, the only years the writers failed to elect a candidate were in 1971 and 1996.

The Boy Scouts of America approved a resolution to allow gay youth to join the Boy Scouts, but not adults. Now that I find quite troubling. The Boy Scouts made a compromise that, in my opinion, is an appeasement to deflect those who are opposed to the principles of the Boy Scouts.
I myself have been a Cub Scout, Boy Scout and Explorer Scout, and found it to be a most rewarding and educational experience. In my view, the Boy Scouts is about development of those skills and abilities that enhances those young men in their entrance into adulthood. To allow one's sexuality to enter the matrix is just counter-productive and destructive for all concerned.
Let me also add that some young people can be cruel and bully those that are different, and as such trigger an increase in teenage suicide. Now that would be very sad.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Luv2shopgal from Perfect summer dress for day or night! Overall, I really like this dress. I do find it to run a bit large in size. I purchased the small/petite size and it's a bit large on me around the bust area. However, I will not return it. I'm just going to take it to my tailor to have it taken in a bit.

Rated 2 out of 5 by momo from Thin and awkward fit I agree with the last two reviewers, the fabric is very thin. I was expecting the usual rib logo fabric but it turned out to be a very sheer material that needs a lining. It runs big so If you're looking for a snug fit, go down a size but if you're petite like me and already wear an XS in bebe dresses, you are out of luck unless you have it tailored. The other drawback is the arm pit area. The dress is cut in an way that the fabric protrudes out on both sides under the arms (very obvious when they are not kept down). This is very awkward! Despite the negative features, I still love the design/style of the dress and I bought mine during the holiday season when they had promo so that's why I'll be keeping mine but will have to visit the tailor shop. This is a dress to buy when it goes on sale, not worth the full price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by BooRedford from I love the high and low Material is very thin but soft I can't wait to spring come to wear to work. I bought the one from last year and I'm not able to wear to work because of the splits on the side. I purchase the black and white dress. I love it!

Rated 1 out of 5 by M155July from This product wasn't as it appeared This dress is not the typical thick material that most of the clothes use. It was extremely thin and the XS was still really big. I have shopped BEBE for years and have never returned anything, but this will be the first. The price did not match the quality.

Rated 4 out of 5 by ASly12 from Sexy but Sophisticated This blouse is made of very good quality materials, and it looks, and feels, very sexy. Though it is very sophisticated, it might be a bit too transparent for an office environment, depending on the industry. I recommend getting the blouse in black, as the transparency, paired with the purple color, make it look TOO fun.

George Alexander McGuire
George Alexander McGuire (1866-1934) was a bishop and founder of the African Orthodox Church,[1] as well as chaplain-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA).
Early Life
McGuire was born on March 26, 1866 at Sweets, Antigua, in the Caribbean. He was educated in the local school system, then at the Antigua branch of Mico College for teachers and at the Moravian Miskey Seminary in the Danish West Indies. From 1888 to 1894 McGuire was pastor of a Moravian Church in the Danish West Indies.
Episcopal Church
In 1894, McGuire arrived in the United States and initially joined the African Methodist Episcopal Church. On January 2, 1895, however McGuire joined the Episcopal Church and two years later became an ordained priest. McGuire led small mostly black Episcopal churches in Cincinnati, Richmond, Virginia and Philadelphia.
From 1905 to 1909, McGuire served as Archdeacon for Colored Work in Arkansas where he zealously labored to increase the number of missions from one to nine. He also encountered opposition from the local Episcopal bishop who believed blacks should be separated from whites and placed in their own church jurisdiction. Eventually McGuire resigned and moved to Cambridge Massachusetts where he established St. Bartholomew's Church for West Indians living in the Boston area. While in Cambridge, McGuire studied at Boston College of Physicians and Surgeons, receiving his M.D. degree in 1910. When his small church was not recognized by the Episcopalian diocese, McGuire resigned in 1911. As he traveled across the U.S. he became even more discouraged by the dismal prospects of blacks in the Episcopal Church and left the denomination.
In 1913 McGuire returned to the West Indies, settling in British-controlled Antigua to care for his sick mother. While there he volunteered at a local perish and gained acclaim for practicing medicine on the island. When a strike of local sugar cane workers led to rioting and burning of the sugar cane fields, British colonial officials urged local and religious leaders to oppose the strikes but McGuire refused and urged them to provide the workers with decent, living wages.
African Orthodox Church
McGuire returned to the United State in 1918 and soon afterwards joined the (UNIA). Marcus Garvey, the UNIA's president appointed him Chaplain-general of the organization. On September 2, 1921 the UNIA created the African Orthodox Church and appointed McGuire as bishop. The church, based on traditional Catholic doctrines, was open to all but under complete black leadership and control. McGuire declared to his followers: "You must forget the white gods. Erase the white gods from your hearts. We must go back to the native church, to our own true God."
Shortly after the UNIA convention in August 1924, McGuire broke with Garvey and focused on expanding his church which mostly attracted Anglican West Indian immigrants. At the time of his death in 1934, the African Orthodox church claimed over 30,000 members, fifty clergy and thirty churches located on three continents: North America, South America and Africa.

Will.i.am Talks Benghazi, Education on 'Meet the Press'
Will.i.am of rap/pop group the Black Eyed Peas, fresh off the White House Correspondents dinner last night, paid a visit to another political standby, NBC's "Meet the Press." Host David Gregory talked with the musician on topics including foreign policy, jobs and education.
"Meet the Press," the longest-running TV program in American history, has struggled with ratings under Gregory. The show was dealt another blow with a Washington Post article about NBC's hiring of a "psychological consultant" to interview Gregory's wife and friends. More recently, one of the show's producers, Chris Donovan, quit to work for ABC rival "This Week."
