Small cells make up a rapidly growing share of cellular network infrastructure, deployed by carriers and enterprise users to expand coverage and capacity. Compared to DAS solutions, they are relatively easy to install in locations such as street lamps and in office buildings. However, small cells themselves are growing increasingly complex. In addition to supporting 3G cellular and 4G LTE networks, small cells are expected to be the primary network infrastructure for 5G network deployments. To serve enterprise needs, small cells also need to support multiple operators. This greater complexity increases the importance of small cell antenna system performance and network design. Small cells also exist in complex heterogeneous network environments, requiring careful network planning, testing, and optimization to avoid interference issues.
Why PCTEL
We work directly with leading small cell manufacturers and cellular carriers to tailor our in-building and outdoor small cell antennas to their frequency bands. We design custom integral antennas to optimize RF performance while allowing the small cell to remain discreet and aesthetically pleasing in commercial and public venues. Our High Rejection GNSS antennas maintain timing synchronization even when placed directly adjacent to LTE antennas. PCTEL's SeeGull® flex scanning receivers provide complete and reliable RF test data to determine whether small cell networks are performing optimally. Our SeeHawk® testing software leverages scanning receivers in innovative ways, including our Antenna Verification Testing (AVT) tool. Whether you are a cellular carrier, network integrator, or private enterprise in need of better coverage, you can trust PCTEL to help you make the most of your small cell network.

This plugin is useful if you want to ensure that the headings marked up with Textile inside an article body are all subheadings of the article title.
For example, your template might define the article title as an <h3> heading. If the author of the article used Textile
h1. or
h2. headings, these would then break the hierarchy of heading levels. Presumably you would want the first subheading in the article body to be
h4. so that it is a proper subheading of the article title <h3>.
img_rebase_headings looks to see what is the top-level heading used in the article and adjusts all of the headings and subheadings found so that the top-level heading used matches the desired base level.

Riderwood Pickleball Group Receives International Spotlight
Silver Spring, Maryland–According to the USA Pickleball Association, more than 2.4 million people participate in the paddle sport that combines elements of tennis and badminton.
With its flexibility as an indoor or outdoor game, relatively inexpensive equipment and easily modified rules, pickleball has caught on across the generational spectrum since its creation in 1965.
That popularity extends to Riderwood, the Erickson Living retirement community in Silver Spring.
Formed in 2007, the resident-led Pickleball Group meets three times per week to play. The co-ed group utilizes a modified indoor court found in a multi-purpose Wellness Studio for its matches, which mainly consist of doubles.
Jack McEleney, a resident of Riderwood since May 2005, serves as the group's leader.
"Pickleball is a great form of exercise and a healthy way to compete," said Mr. McEleney. "But just as important, it's a fun social activity. Our twenty or so active players come from diverse backgrounds, and the sport has brought us together as friends, and in one case, husband and wife. Yes, we've actually had a couple walk down the aisle as a result of meeting at pickleball."
The game has not only grown at Riderwood and across the United States, but internationally as well. On January 14, residents learned of that interest first-hand as the Finnish Broadcasting Company (abbreviated YLE in Finland) filmed a pickleball session at Riderwood. YLE, the public broadcasting network in Finland founded in 1926, is broadcasting a periodic series about unique sports played throughout the world.
Mrs. Pirkko Pontinen, a YLE correspondent assigned to cover American politics, interviewed three residents including one playing pickleball for the very first time.
The next evening…and 4,300 miles away…the report aired during a prime time newscast of YLE.
"It is very exciting for us to know that we might, in some small way, inspire people in Finland to learn the game," said Mr. McEleney.

While the scope of our research was aimed mainly at the direct correlation between the success of entrepreneurs and the location of the Kansas City area, a detail emerged from interviews we conducted with successful entrepreneurs. I'm talking about the utilization of mentors. An extremely high number, approximately 75% of the entrepreneurs we interviewed, had some form of mentorship as they founded their companies.
Some of these mentor relationships were formally structured, such as those through the Helzberg Entrepreneurial Mentorship Program (HEMP) or Pipeline, while others evolved naturally. In some cases, an entrepreneurs previous employer became their mentor. While many had some sort of mentor, those who didn't had previous experience working at a large successful firms.
The following quotes describe the relationships and advice the entrepreneurs received:
"I've never had a single formal, heavily invested mentor-mentee relationship. There are a handful of owners/executives that are highly accomplished that are a phone call away to answer questions and offer guidance and encouragement or inspiration or connections, to help any way they can." (IT Firm C)
"The Helzberg program helped us a lot, because that was in 2003 and 2006. I would even go out on a limb to say we might not be around if we didn't have that to lean on in the 2005 timeframe when we made some real bad management decisions and lost the money. Because I was able to pick up the phone, personally call Barnett and say 'I'm in trouble, I don't know how much trouble I'm in.'" (Business Services Firm M)

A Serious Question
from The Jingle Book
by Oliver Herford
A kitten went a-walking
One morning in July,
And idly fell a-talking
With a great big butterfly.
The kitten's tone was airy,
The butterfly would scoff;
When there came along a fairy
Who whisked his wings right off.
And then—for it is written
Fairies can do such things—
Upon the startled kitten
She stuck the yellow wings.
The kitten felt a quiver,
She rose into the air,
Then flew down to the river
To view her image there.
With fear her heart was smitten,
And she began to cry,
"Am I a butter-kitten?
Or just a kitten-fly?"

Re: 1997 Vesuvio
Clear very deep dark red with vibrant red hues. There is a lot going on here. The nose is packed with jammy dark fruit, black cherry, plums but also coffee, chocolate and mint. On the palate it's sweet, with high balancing acidity, a full body, soft tannins and a long finish. The 1997 Vesuvio showed also well the next day and found it equally attractive, it has lovely concentrated sweet fruit, there is room for this wine to develop in the future and I look forward to trying it again in a few years time. Dia -93/100 - 24/02/2016
Re: 1997 Vesuvio
80% opacity, deep dark red. Peppery nose. Full mouthfeel, soft tannins, chocolate and pepper. Drinking very nicely!
Re: 1997 Vesuvio
V97 85% opacity. WOTN for me. I am sure the 94 will live longer, and maybe this has developed a bit faster, but it was a wonderful port. A silky smoothness accompanied by huge plummy jammy fruits. Just the right balance of fruit flavours, tannins and heat on an amazingly long wonderful finish. Yummy juice!

Re: 1997 Vesuvio
Dark red, intensely coloured and with a narrow rim. Sweet brambles on the nose; very sweet but with so much fruit showing. The sweet fruit leads the entry, a huge mouthful of fruit followed by a wave of tannins all matched by an excellent balanced acidity. Sweet fruit and freshly crushed pine needles on the finish which is of medium duration. One of the few 1997s I have had recently which will reward patience. 91/100.
Top Port in 2017 (so far): Graham Stone Terraces 2015 and Quinta do Vesuvio 1994

I love doing what clients think is impossible and accomplishing it!
Colleen Holiday
Fittnett: Welcome to Fittnett.com
Colleen: Thank you Fittnett for featuring me on your site. It is always a pleasure to be able to help more people meet their health goals and your kindness certainly accomplishes that by being able to inspire and support all of your clients!
Fittnett: What made you join Fittnett.com?
Colleen: I wanted to join a network of healthy individuals!
Fittnett: What city do you train in?
Colleen: Cleveland, Ohio but I train all over the USA!
Fittnett: What inspired you to start personal training?
Colleen: I had a difficult time going to gym class from day one! I was always the last one chosen for teams..the only sport I loved was weight lifting. As a female and now well over 40 I see how weight training helps your confidence and your physique. I spend most of my time only training a few clients. I love working with people who are very overweight or suffering from low self esteem. I love doing what clients think is impossible and accomplishing it. Your body says a lot about you and working out is really a form of self respect. It takes a long time to learn to enjoy it and so my talent is for making fitness fun and enjoyable as well as meeting your goals. I love what I do including teaching the nutrition portion which is a huge part of anyones success.
Fittnett: How long have you been a trainer and how long do you plan to stay in this profession?
Colleen: I have been training 26 years-far before certifications but I hold the best certification you can have form the National Academy of Sports Medicine in nutrition and corrective exercise science. I also have a psychology degree which really sets me apart from other trainers. Sometimes being overweight has nothing to do with the food.
Fittnett: What do you like best about training others?
Colleen: Being an underdog myself I like to be the one to step up and help others meet their goals. There is not other feeling than when a client screams out of joy that they hit their goal. I wish I had someone to help me when I started and that's why I like to be there for others. Its hard to go into a gym and try to figure out the weights. So many people ask me-well what do I do between sets? I laugh and say just stare at everyone else like they do.
Fittnett: Is there a gender you prefer training and why?
Colleen: Women for sure. I have male clients and they do awesome. But there is nothing like helping a female coming out of an abusive marriage, or right afer a painful divorce. That's is my niche, I plan to work more with this sector in the future.
Fittnett: Do you prefer 1 on 1 or group sessions and why?
Colleen: Both. I love groups and I have a wonderful one now that all the members just get along so great and support each other. I have contests all the time like winning a great haircut from a celebrity stylist. Sometimes I just bring Inca Tea to perk people up in the middle of winter.
Fittnett: Do you supply a meal plan for your clients, if so then give us an example?
Colleen: Yes I do-But giving a meal plan for someone I didn't know their medicals for would be very difficult and pointless. I take a good time choosing programs for my clients. Most trainers sell one and just move around the protein, carbohydrate and fat grams to fit their weight. That is not what I do at all. We-the client and I, have to find something they can live with. It is a lifestyle!
Fittnett: What do you think you need to improve as a trainer and what are you doing to change that?
Colleen: I need to not do as much as I do for clients. I find the ones I do the most for-do the least 100 percent of the time! The less you do as a leader the better people do any respect you more.
Fittnett: Is there anything you want to tell Fittnett and the audience reading this?
Colleen: Yes, whatever your goals are and no matter how far away they seem-find someone to help you get there. Just keep grasping at straws until you find that one that pulls you out and propels you forward!

The Leica S features a redesigned Leica CMOS sensor and Maestro II image processor. Thanks to these, it has been possible to enormously increase the speed and versatility of the S-System and raise it to a level that was previously unheard of in the medium-format segment. With a burst frequency of up to 3.5 frames per second, full-HD video in full-frame medium-format sensor size and 4K video recording, fast Live View mode and exceptional imaging quality at all ISO settings, the Leica S (Type 007) once again documents its status as the benchmark in the medium-format segment. The 2 GB buffer memory ensures smooth shooting of rapid sequences and, despite its more than doubled burst rate capability, the new focal plane shutter in the camera offers a further significantly increased service life of at least 150,000 cycles.
The revised autofocus system brings not only higher speed, but also more reliable and more precise focusing. To ensure optimum sharpness and precise tracking of moving subjects, the Leica S (Type 007) features a predictive autofocus mode: the camera registers the motion of the subject and determines the distance to it at the moment of exposure. In combination with its fascinating imaging quality and high burst rate, the Leica S sets entirely new standards for professional medium-format action photography.
With a resolution of 921,600 pixels, a 3" diagonal, full sRGB colour space and increased contrast and brightness, the display allows optimum assessment of subjects and images in every situation. The glass plate protecting the monitor is manufactured from tough and scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla Glass. The panel on the top deck of the Leica S has been redesigned as a trans-reflective display with a larger area and optimized information content to ensure optimum legibility – even in bright sunlight. Two new control elements on the top deck enable direct selection of Live View mode and the activation of video recording.

We have recently moved from a "traditional" offsite backup to a Veeam Proxy server, to using an Offsite Copy Job.
This works soooo much better for us now and a lot quicker, bar one issue.
We have one backup of 12 "standard" VM's (DC's, SQL Server, Web Server etc) which runs like a dream, but we also have a separate backup for our main 6Tb File Server.
When this copy job sicks in, the proxy seems to take all the available RAM, and makes the server pretty much unusable for anything else. To the point that our monitoring software is telling us that server is offline for the first half an hour of that job.
So the VM is a 6Tb VMware 5.5 VM (4 Drives,3 of which are spanned to create a single volume).
The Proxy server (Veeam 9.5) has 12Gb RAM, and 8 cores to chew with.
Do I need to up the RAM, or is there something quicker and less costly that I can do to stop the server croaking when this backup kicks in?

In recognition of numerous environmental improvements, Oamaru's Pen-y-bryn Lodge received an Enviro 'Silver' Award from Qualmark.
James Glucksman and James Boussy, who took over Oamaru's sole Qualmark five-star rated accommodation in August 2010, are dedicated to reducing their property's impact on the pristine environment of North Otago.
Since their arrival, the pair has undertaken many environmental measures including installing insulation throughout the property, significantly reducing their heating costs while also improving guests' comfort, and instigating a composting programme that turns the lodge's kitchen waste into fertiliser which is used in place of chemicals on the extensive ornamental and kitchen gardens that surround the property.
James Glucksman said it had been a goal to eventually qualify for a Qualmark Enviro award.
"When we bought Pen-y-bryn we hoped to do so, but we never thought we would qualify so quickly, or that we would start off with a silver award. It is something that we take very seriously, and we're pleased that Qualmark have recognised all that we've done to make this heritage property not just a wonderful place for guests to enjoy, but also one that they can feel good about visiting."
James Boussy, who is responsible for maintaining the house and its gardens, has been very keen to avoid the use of chemicals.
"As a gardener, I prefer to use natural fertilisers whenever possible. And the guests appreciate that most of the food we serve them is grown on the property by the people who are hosting them," he said.
James and James hope to continue to hone Pen-y-bryn's environmental credentials, with plans to add solar heating panels at some stage and collect rain water for garden use.
"While we don't expect to qualify for a Gold award, since there is only so much we can do while maintaining the historical integrity of the house," James Glucksman said, "we want to do whatever we can to reduce our impact on the environment, and improve our guests' experience."
In addition to being awarded the Enviro Silver award, Pen-y-bryn was also re-awarded five stars, recognising the lodge as "exceptional and among the best available in New Zealand".

I met some interesting characters on my trip to New Mexico. One of these was Dan the Mountain Man. He is contracted by the Forest Service to round up the mustangs. I know – roundups – bleck. This is one of the few mustangs ranges managed by the Forest Service and not the BLM. Hard to believe on this vast range that 100 mustangs have to be rounded up this year. Unfortunately these roundups are not going to end anytime soon. The GOOD NEWS is, the Jicarillla mustangs are captured without helicopters. The technique is called 'bait removal'. For more information about this technique, this was news footage shot that was actually shot one week before I was. I wish it was still available because the way he does it is pretty darn incredible, and puts barely any stress on the horses. ( however the news article is.) These 3 buckskin mustangs had been caught using this technique but were being re-released because of their gorgeous coloring and conformation.
What a treat to get to witness mustangs being set free!
Dan the mountain man invited Lynne and myself along for the ride. We drove and drove…and drove along a winding dirt road, almost to the Colorado border. The only civilization we saw were the natural gas wells with assorted equipment and empty trucks. The workers had long since left for the weekend.
There were 2 stallions and a mare in the trailer. Dan wanted to release them separately so that the stallions would not fight over the mare.
The first one to go free was Lowball. (If you go to my Flickr page you will find out the reason why he was named that!
Dan fiddled with the trailer door, opened it up and out came this absolutely stunning horse. Off he went down the road, tail flying in the air. It was a sight to see.
Isn't he a HUNK?!?
He trotted down the road for quite a bit and I snapped pictures. Then he stopped and turned around to look at us. Was he confused?
Or was he just saying goodbye?

Readability: Defining the Problems, Finding Solutions. A Connecticut ABE Staff Development Project Resource Unit.
Atwood, Beth S.
Designed to alert adult basic education teachers to the factors of readability and to suggest ways that some readability problems can be alleviated, this resource unit discusses the problems posed by readability formulas and suggests that teachers must both press for more readable adult texts and question intelligently the products of publishers and adult educators. It then examines (1) the mechanical, content, and language factors affecting readability; (2) visual tools used to enhance readability; (3) stylistic and formal clues used to enhance reading comprehension; (4) personal experience used for clues; (5) readability of teacher-made materials; (6) specialized jargon for every-day reading; (7) organizational clues that enhance readability; (8) a readability formula in use; and (9) the Fry formula for adult readability.

This last paragraph is an accurate description of how we setup ACE. It is built out of components that are assembled in different ways at runtime (using OSGi). The components themselves embed enough metadata to ensure that (even without access to the sourcecode or documentation) they can be assembled succesfully. Like other modular projects within Apache, it is setup so we can easily release individual components.

Phis communication is a business establishment that deals with importation and distribution of phones and phone accessories in Nigeria.
We deal on high quality phones , laptops ,chargers,Bluetooth speakers ,car mp3 players, quality memory cards ,quality flash drives ,power banks ,quality ear phones ,etc. Whole sale of any quantity and retail sales are also available .
We also provide proper guide to shopping in our environment ,we provide proper guide to quality products and the best prices ,we decided to offer this service because we have seen people fall victim of blood day light scam due to varieties of qualities that exist in our line of business ,we have seen people cry, felted cheated ,fight,and even damage the product they bought because a substandard product was sold to them in the name of original ones. Phis communication has decided to bridge that gab that exist between buyers and sellers vis a vis identifying the quality products,we recommend any product of high quality and at the best price in the market for our client and customers.
We also update the weekly price of phones in the market ,this has become imperative because we found out that buying a phone now entails a lot of budgeting, it is important that you know the price of new phones before you go for that fairly used phones ,price of phones drops and increase just like Doller. someone might buy a phone at #27000 and wants to sale it at #23000 , not knowing that the new one of the same phone has dropped to #24000 naira. So before you buy that phone from OLX or JIJI , check the price here, it will help you get a proper bargain.
Phis communication also train people in phone and phone accessories business, I spent 6 months learning this business after finishing my youth service,phone business is not like any other business, u need to know so much about the business e.g you need to know different qualities , where to get the goods at the best prices ,when to buy and when to sale,the moving designs and brands etc.

A51 Ejison plaza,opposite UBA bank, beside Emmeka Offor plaza, new market road Onitsha.

There have been few examples of tobacco in music in early modern times, though there are occasional signs of influence in pieces such as Johann Sebastian Bach's Edifying Thoughts of a Tobacco-Smoker. However, from the early 20th century and onwards smoking has been closely associated with popular music. Jazz was from early on closely intertwined with the smoking that was practiced in the venues where it was played, such as bars, dance halls, jazz clubs and even brothels. The rise of jazz coincided with the expansion of the modern tobacco industry, and in the United States also contributed to the spread of cannabis. The latter went under names like "tea", "muggles" and "reefer" in the jazz community and was so influential in the 1920s and 30s that it found its way into songs composed at the time such as Louis Armstrong's Muggles Larry Adler's Smoking Reefers and Don Redman's Chant of The Weed. The popularity of marijuana among jazz musicians remained high until the 1940s and 50s, when it was partially replaced by the use of heroin.
Another form of modern popular music that has been closely associated with cannabis smoking is reggae, a style of music that originated in Jamaica in the late 1950s and early 60s. Cannabis, or ganja, is believed to have been introduced to Jamaica in the mid-19th century by Indian immigrant labor and was primarily associated with Indian workers until it was appropriated by the Rastafari movement in the middle of the 20th century. The Rastafari considered cannabis smoking to be a way to come closer to God, or Jah, an association that was greatly popularized by reggae icons such as Bob Marley and Peter Tosh in the 1960s and 70s.

|What is a good way to start a garden on a balcony? I have tried once before and was not able to keep it up. I work 2 jobs and go to school full itme. Any suggestions.
|The key to keeping plants on a balcony healthy and happy is in choosing the types of plants that grow best in the sunshine exposure your balcony gets, using containers with adequate drainage and filling them with potting soil, especially potting soils with moisture pellets that help retain moisture. Plants in containers can dry out quickly so it is important to check the watering needs. If you can water every morning before you head out the door, I think you'll have more success with your plants. And, choosing drought tolerant plants can help, too. Best wishes with your garden!

PORTO PALERMO, Albania (NNS) -- The guided-missile cruiser USS Monterey (CG 61) conducted exercises with the Albanian navy in Porto Palermo, Albania, April 28.
The exercise is part of a continuing effort between the U.S. and Albania to improve Albanian maritime surveillance capabilities.
The Royal Moroccan Navy's FREMM frigate yesterday began sea trials off the coast of Brittany in preparation for delivery to the North African country later this year.
Its builder DCNS said that after putting to sea for the first time yesterday, the frigate will begin several weeks of sea trials. During this first period at sea, the crew ( made up of French Navy personnel, Moroccan Navy representatives and DCNS employees) will focus primarily on the performance of the ship's propulsion system and navigation system.
It's now official. That China is building a blue water navy capable of operating far from its shores has been known for a while to observers of the rapid military modernization in Asia. Beijing's biennial White Paper on defence issued this week simply confirms it.
Unlike the previous reports, issued since 1998, the White Paper is expansive in identifying a range of missions for the armed forces in both war and peace. As Chinese armed forces look beyond their borders, the Navy's role as a flexible instrument has acquired greater salience in Chinese military strategy.
MOSCOW, April 15 (RIA Novosti) – The Russian Navy's fourth Project 11356 frigate will have its keel laid on Thursday, the Yantar shipyard said on Monday.
The start of construction work on the Admiral Butakov frigate was postponed in October 2012.
The Kaliningrad-based shipyard is to build a total of six Project 11356 frigates under a contract with the Defense Ministry.

On day 14 of our POETRY celebration let's give a royal welcome to a real classic guest.
The Cap and Bells by William Butler Yeats.
This poem, from this Irish poet, about unrequited love was gifted to me by my husband.
What a man—my husband.
It's ironic how the words fail somebody, like me, who loves words so much when I try to describe my love for this man (I mean my favorite book is the dictionary). It just seems that there is no description worthy enough to explain how much I love him. I often feel how the speaker in Poe's poem, Annabel Lee feels when describing love "But we loved with a love that was more than love," but less crazy. I don't think I would lie down by his tomb ever night. Although, I have already made this clear to my husband that when our time is up to leave this earth, I am going to make sure we go together because I couldn't imagine being without him (Ok. Writing that out for the world to see, I realize, now, that seems even crazier than the speaker in Annabel Lee… I get now why my husband eyes his drinks suspiciously when I remind him of this idea).
Now before you go rolling your eyes and saying, "gag me" at this adoration (or calling the police) you must understand that we have been with each other for almost 20 years and have ridden the roller coaster of life together. Some times we can annoy the shit out of each other as much as we love each other. But, at the end of the day, there is nobody that I would rather have kiss me good night and wish me sweet dreams than my husband. He is my love and my life. My happy place is cuddled up in the crook of his arm, my head placed upon his chest. No yoga practice could ever relax me as quickly. And when his chest is wet with my drool, he doesn't complain. He just pulls me in tighter. That's my man. My man, whom before we even met, had his favorite poems printed and framed.
They say when you meet the love of your life, you will know. I knew when I first saw him as tough bouncer in a club. I knew he had a poetic soul behind his muscly exterior (let's pause here for a moment while I recall that muscled exterior.…Ok back to his soul) This was confirmed when I eyed the poems by Frost and Yeats neatly printed and on display in his home. And they were there before he even knew my appreciation for poetry. He wasn't playing any games to get me ( he already had me anyway—reference back to muscles and poetic soul). I was in awe that such a practical, scientific mind had a great appreciation for these poems. He not only decorated with them, but he kept them in his sight for inspiration.
I mean do I know how to pick 'em or what? (Trust me, though. I went through a lot of edits before I discovered my opus.)
Today, he continues to love me masterly and is my biggest support. Like in the case of our royal poem today, my husband treats me in such a way that I can say, "It's nice to be the Queen."
The jester, in The Cap and Bells, giving every part of himself to the young queen in this poem would have made her so happy if given the chance as well. If the social class system and her marriage (we can assume a new marriage and an arranged one, just by the small way she is introduced as "young queen") was changed. The jester risked everything in this narrative poem to prove his love to the young queen. He sent her his heart and soul. When that didn't work, he sent all that he had left:
" 'I have cap and bells,' he pondered,
'I will send them to her and die';"
I believe the young queen loved him back, but didn't know how to be with him. Maybe she didn't want to put his life at risk. It feels like Medieval Times in this poem and if so, brutal torture was used for punishment. The guillotine seems like child play compared to the iron belt or rectal pear (google the two items only if you have a high tolerance for pain) used for punishment during this time in history. Who would want to subject their lover to that torture?
Whether the jester's death was figurative or literal (an essay question I alway give to my students when teaching this poem), I believe the real truth in this poem is that she loved him back as much as he loved her.
"They set up a noise like crickets,
A chattering wise and sweet,
And her hair was a folded flower
And the quiet of love in her feet."
No harm can come to him now that he has left his cap and bells and died for her. She can love him fully now.
So some may think it was an odd choice of a poem for my husband to memorize and recite to me, in place of vows, during our wedding because it may seem like the love is unfulfilled in the poem. But I think my husband's vow was meant to explain how he would love me no matter what challenges we faced. Nothing would keep him from loving me. He is certainly a man of his word, because I have really tested him over the years. He, however, continues to love me with everything he's got.
So, I am beyond pleased to say almost twenty years from when first we met, my love has kept his promise. And when my phone chirps with the sound of crickets, I quickly correct people when they think I chose that text tone to mean my husband just puts me to sleep to explain it's because these two crickets have been lucky enough to find their life long mates. And my husband's texts are "A chattering wise and sweet."
So take a moment to treat yourself royally and read "The Cap and Bells" by William Butler Yeats here:
You will quickly see why it was such a gift.
The picture at the top of this page was my gift to my husband after we returned from our honeymoon in Yeat's homeland, Ireland. We keep this rendering I made of the jester and the young queen hanging above the framed poem of The Cap and Bells in our bedroom. There we, also, keep "the quiet of love in" our feet."

Carroll County voters will will choose between five candiates in the race for the post of Carroll County Clerk this year.
With the election less than three weeks away, The Carroll News asked each candidate two questions. The first question was "If elected as Clerk of Court, what goals do you have for Carroll County and how would accomplish them?" The second question was a request for biographical info. Their responses follow:
Gerald R. Goad:
1. I've ran my campaign platform this year focusing on three things: educate, enhance and serve. With educate, I want to establish numerous, effective ways to inform citizens on the over 800 responsibilities and services of the office through personal and electronic methods of communication. As a community service, I want to establish partnerships with local attorneys to offer free workshops for citizens on estate planning and other law processes handled by the Clerk's office. With all office staff, I plan to introduce cross-training and professional development initiatives for all deputy clerks and myself in order to provide better services to all citizens.
By mentioning to enhance is to seek funding to introduce some of the latest technology that several Clerk offices are utilizing today across the state, such as the Officer of the Court Remote Access (OCRA) and the Virginia Judicial E-Filing System (VJEFS). OCRA provides online access for authorized personnel to retrieve and review court documents as they are specifically authorized to review electronically without having to visit the Clerk's office, as the VJEFS system allows attorneys to electronically file civil actions in circuit court.
One significant responsibility of the Clerk's office is the proper handling of historic county documents. I plan to work closely with the Carroll County Historical Society, Genealogy Club, and members of law enforcement in making sure the county's historical documents are kept secure and protected.
To serve is to enforce an open-door policy and bipartisan, collaborative leadership to better serve all citizens, with making sure that all responsibilities and procedures are carried forth in a timely and efficient manner for best customer service. I will also strive to work closely with the Commonwealth of Virginia in making sure all work procedures and expectations are performed per law for clean audits in the future.
2. I was born and raised in Carroll County with my father, Elmon Goad, serving 30 years for the Virginia Department of Transportation and my mother, Karen Goad, currently serving as secretary of Oakland Elementary School. Both sides of my family go back decades of years with my great-great uncle, Dexter Goad, serving as Clerk of Court in the early 1900s. I am a 2004 graduate of Carroll County High School, obtaining my Associate's Degree in Education from Wytheville Community College.
After finishing WCC, I transferred to Virginia Tech receiving my Bachelor's of Arts degree in Communication from Virginia Tech. I plan to receive my Master's of Science degree in Business/Industry Training from Old Dominion University this Fall.
Goad also was part of the second graduating class of the Twin County Leadership Institute held at the Crossroads Institute in Galax, where he learned quality leadership traits in local government. During college, he also served as Carroll County's first-ever Public Information Specialist. He is currently employed at Wytheville Community College with six years experience in a variety of roles such as academic advising and coordinating all testing, tutoring, and student activity services for the college.
Goad is also active in the community as president of the Oakland Ruritan Club, elder and youth leader of Galax First Christian Church, lay speaker for many area churches, and member of the Galax Camp of Gideons International. I was also appointed in 2014 by the Carroll County Board of Supervisors to serve as a Carroll trustee on the Galax-Carroll Regional Library Board.
B.P. "Phil" Hawks
1. I am running for Clerk of Circuit Court out of a desire to serve the citizens of Carroll County in the capacity of a constitutional officer. I was the first candidate to file for the Republican nomination for Circuit Court Clerk having been asked to consider running due to my work ethic and proficiency, as a Deputy Clerk, in the services I provided to the citizens.
I am the Carroll County nominated Republican Candidate as certified by the primary results of May 16, 2015. As a former Deputy Clerk, I have working knowledge of the duties of the Circuit Court Clerk, and that of his staff. Based on my experience, in the Circuit Court, I am acquainted with many of the policies, procedures and regulations related to operating the Circuit Court for Carroll County according to Virginia state guidelines.
I believe the customer service background I possess would be an asset to the office. I believe that my employment, outside of a governmental position, with the knowledge that an income is based on performance, good customer service, and accountability, would benefit the citizens I am elected to represent. As the next Clerk, knowing there are over 800 listed responsibilities, many opportunities will present themselves during my term. I wish to start my term with an independent audit to verify where the office stands in the way of adjustments required to meet the Virginia Supreme Court standards for accounting and book keeping practices, along with implementation of those recommendations.
I would continue efforts to cross-train the staff, along with the opportunity to implement flow charts, to allow for ease of service. Efficiency in the office will be a priority to better serve the citizens of Carroll County. I understand, as a former Deputy Clerk, the need for compartmentalization for certain services due to the complexity of the Virginia Code and that would not change. However, cross-training and flow charts would allow the staff to serve the citizens with confidence and competence. I will focus on the importance of posting necessary citizen accessible information for database users, and also informing citizens to online services available. While Clerk's E-Pass and OCRA (Officer of the Court Remote Access) are tools that are available for attorneys, and other officers of the court, I desire to inform citizens to other online services available in relation to Circuit Court services.
I will also implement a service feedback form for the public to utilize to inform my office of documentation that is inaccessible and the type of professional service rendered during their visit. Having experience in the Circuit Court Office, I understand that the staffing situation is in dire need of an increase in personnel. I will petition the Compensation Board to allow for sufficient staff to handle the ever increasing workload that is being processed. According to the numbers presented by the Compensation Board there is a need for an increase in staff based on the volume that is now being processed in Carroll County.
2. Bradley "Phil" Hawks. Former Deputy Clerk of Carroll County Circuit Court with 2.5 years experience; 41-year old husband; father of three. Lives in Woodlawn, VA; raised in Lambsburg; 23 years as a Gospel minister (former pastor; itinerant minister; short-term missionary as Board Chairman for Joshua's Army Short-Term Missions Organization); 1992 Graduate of Carroll County High School with an advanced studies diploma. Studied Marketing/Retailing at Surry Community College; transferred to Fruitland Baptist Bible Institute to graduate an Associate of Religion/Church Ministries in 1995.
Over 10 years experience in customer service management including customer conflict resolution, supervising personnel, payroll, accounts payable/receivable. While a Deputy Clerk at Carroll Circuit I earned my associates degree in applied science, 2013 (with honors as Class President), an Occupational Therapy Assistant major; Health Technology minor, from Southwest Virginia Community College, in conjunction with Wytheville Community College. Employed at Blue Ridge Home Health Care in Galax, VA.
James A. Alderman, Jr.
1. If elected to the position of Carroll County Circuit Court Clerk my goals are as follows:
A huge goal is to work well with the current staff, and to answer a question I have been asked several times while on the campaign trail, "I do not have any intention of replacing anyone." Most of the staff in the clerks' office have been there for sometime and do a great job. I have no intention of disrupting the office or the staff's lives by getting rid of anyone.
A – Taking care of the public needs should be our primary goal especially, and to see that any funds that are due to the victims of crimes that come through the clerks office are sent out as promptly as possible.
B – To hold myself and the staff accountable for any issues that arise in the clerks' office by sharing the results of our audits with the public. Since the position is elected by the public it should be held to the standard of sharing any major issues that arise that are a matter of pubic record as allowed by the Code of Virginia. The Code of Virginia has certain sections that deal with the office of Clerk of Court and the office will follow those codes.
C -To review the office methods of operation for a period time then cross train the staff as needed so everyone may function in more than one position, but only after careful review. The best rule I think I can follow is if it isn't broke, don't try to fix it.
D – To manage the clerks office in an a fair and orderly manner as prescribed by the standards set forth by the State of Virginia.
2. I have lived and worked in Hillsville and Carroll County all of my life, and the last 28-plus years I have been employed by the Hillsville Police Department. From 1991 until 2013 when I assumed my current position as Captain I served as the town of Hillsville's first and only investigator. My job has required putting together complex cases for prosecution locally or on several occasions' prosecution by the U.S. Attorney's office.
I have a Masters Degree in Criminal Justice Administration, Enforcement, and Investigations, along with attending numerous state and federal trainings. I have testified in the Carroll County Circuit Court, and handled many of the criminal documents associated with that court while performing my duties.
I have attempted to serve the community by working to stem the flow of drugs such as methamphetamine in our area, and the prosecution of individuals who abuse children in my jurisdiction.
Barbara A. Fadden
1. I am running as an independent because I feel that the Clerk serves everyone, therefore the Circuit Court Clerk's office should be a non-partisan office.
I have been a resident of Carroll County for 21 years. I have been married to Russell Fadden for 23 years. We have three beautiful children and have been blessed with three beautiful grandchildren. I love living in a community where family values are still important.
My greatest accomplishment is raising three beautiful children and watching each one graduate from Carroll County High School. My other great accomplishments are receiving my GED, graduating from college with honors and being blessed with a successful career with the Circuit Court.
I earned my GED upon starting the Legal Assisting program at New River Community College in 2004. I served as an intern for the Clerk's office from May 2005 to June 2005 and was hired as a full time Deputy Clerk in July 2005. I graduated with honors from New River Community College in 2006 with my Associates degree in Legal Assisting while working full time in the Clerk's office and taking care of my family.
My duties include recording land records, receiving payments, receiving passports and concealed weapons permits and issuing marriage licenses. I am cross-trained to assist with the daily operations of the Clerk's office. I learned that many tasks are legally sophisticated and highly complex. I also learned that in a court of record, all tasks must be handled with reasonable care, skill and diligence.
In 2009, I became qualified and appointed by the former Clerk to hold a quasi-judicial power over matters of probate and in the qualification of fiduciaries also known as the Probate Clerk. Since this position was held by Jeanette Mabe, the former chief deputy clerk, I also assumed all of her responsibilities without the title.
Each day I learn something new. I love my career and the challenge each new day brings. I love helping others, especially when they are in need and don't fully understand the processes of the Judicial System. If elected November 3, I will strive to improve productivity and restore fiscal accountability while providing kind and courteous customer service during your visit to the Clerk's office.
Currently the Clerk's office is working with a very limited staff. I will fill vacant positions available and seek funding for additional positions to assist with the daily operations of the office. I will develop and implement policies consistent with the procedures set forth by the Supreme Court of Virginia to strengthen internal controls.
I will be accountable to the citizens to perform my duties to ensure fiscal accountability is not questionable. I will ensure that the Deputy Clerks have continued training and I will work to ensure all duties are completed in a timely manner.
To better serve the professional members of the community I will work diligently to expand the information available on the Land Records Remote Access. I will actively seek improvements in technology as it becomes available to the Clerk's office by the Supreme Court of Virginia. We are currently researching the E-Filing and Case Management programs offered through the Supreme Court. However, budget constraints and cuts limit the ability to expand technology.
We have been working hard to improve the function of the Clerk's office by organizing work stations and updating the land records management technology. One much needed improvement we have made is we have moved our plat scanning equipment into the office so we have the capability of scanning plats as they are received and we can print copies for customers from 8 ½ x 11 to 18 x 24.
The old plats have also been scanned and can be easily accessed in the deed room and by Remote Access. We are in the process of creating a digital index to aide in the search of old plats.
James W. "Jay" McCraw
1. I am confident that the combination of my education and life experiences will serve me well in performing the duties of the office of Clerk of Court. If elected, I will strive to ensure that everyone needing the services of the Circuit Court Clerk's office will be afforded the best possible customer service experience.
I will stress courteous and professional interactions by office staff. I will work in conjunction with the Supreme Court of Virginia to make sure that the office staff receive any and all available training in order to do their job to the best of their abilities.
I would also like to explore ways to make the office run more efficiently through cross training the staff so they are able to perform more than one specific job duty. This will enable the office to provide better and more prompt service to the individuals that we serve.
I want to bring together a staff with diverse qualifications, training and experience to this office. I feel it is important to gather feedback from the employees in the office and listen to the general public as to what their needs are in relation to the office. I will work to improve the financial accountability of the office through implementing a system of checks and balances to insure proper recording and accounting of all receipts and disbursements.
I want to ensure that the office is equipped with the latest technology affordable, and approved by the Supreme Court of Virginia, so as to make interfacing with different systems and the sharing of information as efficient as possible. It is also important to provide the public with information about the services that the Clerk's office provides. I will continually review operations and look for savings, available resources and ways to improve customer service. It is very important to be a careful steward of taxpayer's money.
2. I am a lifelong resident of Carroll Co, having grown up in Cana. I have an associate degree in agriculture business, a bachelor's degree in economics and a master's degree in educational leadership. My work experience includes being a loan officer for the Farmer's Home Administration and a teacher at Carroll County Middle School. I have also coached football, basketball, and baseball.
I taught classes in math, career and technology. I also developed a curriculum for a juvenile justice class. For the past 12 years, I also worked in the court system as a part-time magistrate for the 27th Judicial District of the Commonwealth of Virginia, a position I chose to give up in order to seek the office of the Clerk of Court. I am married and have one son and daughter-in-law along with two grandchildren. I am a member of First Baptist Church in Hillsville.

Cricket success
Over the years Eversfield has seen many able cricketers at club, county and district levels. This year has been no exception. Three children in Form 6 have been selected to play for Warwickshire at county level. George and Catrin are playing for U11's and Holly is playing for U13's. We would like to congratulate all of them. Well done!
